Chapter 519: Unexpectedly Sealed Marquis
The Jia family's political sense of smell is the most acute one is Master Jing, and the others are not as powerful as Master Jing when combined.
After Jia Cong explained the reason why Cao Jiugong was looking for him, Master Jing had already realized his intentions and drew a complete map of the dispatch of generals in his mind.
Several situations have been deduced, and each of them will not have the shadow of the Jia family.
"Our family is already cooking oil on fire, even if Your Majesty wants to preserve this hard-won friendship between monarchs and ministers, you have to press our family and let people from other martial families such as the Zhenguo Mansion lead the troops over......"
Halfway through his words, Master Jing turned his gaze to Jia Cong and said with deep meaning: "Brother Cong'er's title is about to be restored!" ”
Yes?
"Ouch, really?"
The old lady was stunned for a moment, and then she also understood the meaning of her nephew's words, and immediately clapped her hands happily: "No, otherwise I wouldn't have specially asked Brother Cong to handle this matter." ”
Where does the military merit come from? Go to the battlefield with real knives and guns, organize logistics to transport grain and grass, and advise and plan the general strategy.
As long as one of these three major items can play a non-negligible role in the entire war, the military merits obtained will be among the best.
And what Jia Cong is best at is dealing with Western affairs, and he has a very strategic vision.
The rebellion of the monks and officials in Wusi not only has the shadow of the Western countries behind it, but now there is also a Rakshasa country in the northwest, which is simply that God has to chase Jia Cong to feed him.
Even if Jia Cong didn't want this credit, the emperor would forcibly feed it to his mouth.
In the entire Great Xia, who can compare to Jia Cong for the understanding of Westerners? After Cao Jiugong received the news, he immediately chose to invite Jia Cong, because he understood that Jia Cong would definitely not be able to avoid this matter.
As for why the emperor asked Jia Cong to preside over the formulation of the general strategic policy of this battle, firstly, he took a fancy to Jia Cong's ability, and secondly, he was paving the way for the restoration of Jia Cong's title.
"Brother Cong'er......"
Master Jing didn't hesitate at all, and he didn't care about his niece's etiquette today, and directly began to explain his views on this battle to Jia Cong.
"If you want to completely pacify Usz, there are three things that must be cautious. One is Lamaism on the plateau, where the power of faith is the most terrifying. ”
"Second, whether it's England or the Rakshasa Kingdom, they won't really help Uszang, their purpose is to take the opportunity to disrupt the dynasty and consume our national strength. Therefore, if we want to prevent them from succeeding, we must put down the rebellion at the lowest cost. ”
"Since they don't want us to be peaceful, then we can't let them watch the show quietly. I remember that the English and the French have always been at odds with each other, right? ”
Master Jing is really a strategic master, just with this sentence, it is enough to make Jia Cong's admired five bodies fall to the ground.
He is a reborn person, and he can only think of this through the memory of his previous life, and the old man Jing stays in the clan every day to learn and teach dolls, and only by virtue of the news in the newspaper and rumors, he can think of borrowing the hand of France to cut England.
"Uncle Jing, you are really amazing, my nephew planned it this way. Wen Shaobao has already negotiated with France, as long as we are willing to sell them firearms, they will help the country occupy a territory in the West. I think that if we give the French some benefits in the future, the French will definitely help us deal with the English. ”
The contradictions between Britain and France are absolutely impossible to talk about in a year.
Jia Cong still doesn't believe it, Daxia helped France build a huge fleet, and the backyard of the English people will definitely catch fire, and then they will still have the leisure to do things in the East?
As for the Rakshasa Kingdom, when it comes to grassland warfare, who has Great Xia been afraid of?
"Uncle Jing, the nephew of the candidate for Tibet intends to recommend three people to His Majesty, one is Uncle Niu......"
Jia Jing waved his hand and interrupted Jia Cong's words: "It's good that you know this in your heart, you don't have to say it, so that someone won't know to bother you." ”
Just kidding, the dynasty has not heard of the war for two years, and the generals are almost idle, screaming every day about the east and west, and almost annoying the emperor to death.
The monks of Uszang were going to rebel or not, and they almost didn't kill the generals in the court, just waiting for them to raise the anti-flag.
If they knew that Jia Cong had already decided on the candidate, it was estimated that the threshold of Rongguo Mansion would be stepped on by the generals.
Jia Cong couldn't help but shudder when he thought of that scene.
He scratched his brain, laughed, and changed the topic and said, "It's true that the nephew over there doesn't plan to recommend someone from our family to come over, but the broth can still be drunk." As the saying goes, it's not rude to come and go, and since the Rakshasa Kingdom in the northwest has been involved, we can't let them have a good time. The Rakshasa Kingdom annexed a lot of places to the west the year before last, and my nephew planned to let someone bring an iron horse over to help those small tribal countries that were annexed to restore the country! ”
The Rakshasa Kingdom's desire for territory is definitely the strongest Jia Cong has ever seen, but unlike the Central Plains Dynasty, their rough level of governance makes it difficult for the people of the occupied land to truly belong to them.
As long as Great Xia sends an iron cavalry over, relying on the fame of the Celestial Empire, the benevolence of the Celestial Empire, and the powerful military power of the Celestial Empire, it is enough to make the resistance that the Rakshasa Kingdom has finally suppressed to restart, and then where will the Rakshasa Kingdom have the heart to come to the Celestial Empire to do things.
In Jia Cong's expectation, the team heading northwest did not need to fight head-on with the Rakshasa Kingdom, but only needed to drag them south.
Therefore, this credit is not big, but it is not small to say that it is not small, at least it is a medium to upper credit.
"I want Brother Rong and Brother Qiang to go over together, as long as they hold back the pace of the Rakshasa Kingdom going south, and wait for Usizang to settle down, there will definitely be no problem for the two of them to be promoted to the next level after returning to Beijing."
Jia Cong smiled bitterly and ignored his second brother's disgruntled eyes, and explained his thoughts to Master Jing.
The two eldest nephews sitting at the end were full of gratitude.
Born in a martial arts family, as long as you have a little self-esteem, who doesn't want to make a contribution?
They are really brothers, and the absurdity of the past few years has cost them many opportunities.
Now I want to work hard, but God is just joking, and both of them have become representatives of "eating soft rice" in Beijing.
One married the daughter of the former prince, and the other married the beloved daughter of the eldest princess......
Jia Jing looked at the longing eyes of the two grandsons, and finally could only sigh and nod his head to deal with the matter.
He skimmed over the incident and spoke of his third opinion on the matter of Usz.
"Since you already have an idea about the Rakshasa Kingdom, don't talk about it. Brother Cong, in the battle of Usizang, winning or losing is already doomed, but the most important thing is how to make Usizang completely return to his heart. Earlier, I had advised Your Majesty to abolish serfs, and I think we can start implementing it! ”
……
The spring breeze in February is the mildest, with warmth on the face, just like a beauty brushing her face with her hands, which is extremely comfortable.
Huanghuafang is particularly lively today, and the street in front of the Lin Mansion is almost blocked by horse-drawn carriages.
In order to prevent the prince from being blocked outside, the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion had to invite people from the Five Cities Terracotta Division to guide traffic on the street.
Lin Bai and several brothers of the Lin family stood in front of the door to greet the guests, Jia Cong was once with the second brother Jia Lian, Baoyu, Jia Huan, Jia Rong, and Jia Qiang in the main hall of the Lin Mansion to entertain the guests who came to congratulate.
Princess Wen'an, the goddaughter of the emperor, the eldest daughter of Lin Shangshu, the god of wealth in Great Xia, and the princess of the capital were almost all shocked.
The singers of the Lin Mansion shouted hoarsely, and the congratulatory gifts were piled up in the entire three rooms, and they had not yet been put down.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Princess has arrived!"
The guests sitting in the main hall all got up and greeted Lin Ruhai together.
"The ministers will meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and meet His Royal Highness the Crown Princess!"
The crown prince Liu Hong and the crown princess Zhang entered the house hand in hand and returned the salute with everyone outside the main hall.
I only heard Liu Hong say gently: "This palace is here today to congratulate the imperial sister and the joy of Lu, we don't care about the monarch and ministers today, please hurry up." ”
The crown prince of Great Xia really didn't have to pick what he said and did, and he personally stepped forward to help up a few old ministers and Confucians, and a few words brought the atmosphere outside the main hall to a climax.
Everyone hugged the prince back to the main hall and sat down, and they chatted happily for a while, and Jia Cong took the opportunity to lead Liu Hong to the study to rest for a while.
"You have to have a number of things in your heart about the things that are over there, and you should have more snacks. My father intends to restore your title by this, and you must always make a great contribution to this matter, so as not to be talked about by others. ”
The prince's advice made Jia Cong quite warm, his cheap fourth brother was really good to him......
Jia Cong nodded solemnly: "I know, fourth brother, don't worry, I already have an idea in my heart about this matter." At most, early the day after tomorrow, I will send the excerpt to the Qinzheng Palace. ”
"Don't worry, after you finish writing, I will take you to the British Mansion and ask the British Duke to give you an axe."
If it weren't for the energy of the ministers of the DPRK and China being restrained by Jingcha and the big plan, Jia Cong's position as the imperial servant Siqing is estimated to be enough.
Now if you want Jia Cong to restore her title, you must make it impossible for others to find fault.
Liu Hong still doesn't believe it, gathering the strongest martial arts of the Jia and Zhang dynasties, and can't formulate a perfect and detailed strategic plan?
Brother Cong'er's title, he Liu Hong has secured it!
"Then thank you to the fourth brother, I can get the guidance of the old man in the UK, and my confidence will be even stronger!"
Jia Cong thanked him, and Liu Hong nodded with a smile.
At this time, there was a report from the waiter in the East Palace outside the door: "Your Highness, there is news from Cining Palace that the Queen Mother's phoenix is about to arrive." ”
Ha?
The Queen Mother is also coming?
Liu Hongchong blinked at the shocked Jia Cong and said with a smile: "In Cining Palace, the imperial sister is much more favored than me. The imperial grandmother told her father a few days ago that she would leave the palace today to be the official guest of the imperial sister. ”
Yes?
The Queen Mother gave Sister Lin as a guest?
"Didn't Zhengbin invite the eldest princess of Deqing?"
Jia Cong's doubts were soon answered, Jia Qiang got the news from her mother-in-law that when the eldest princess of Deqing went to Cining Palace to ask for peace, she inadvertently said that the Lin Mansion invited her to be the guest of honor for Daiyu and Luli.
The Queen Mother thought about it very quietly, so she thought about going out of the palace to be a guest for her godgranddaughter, the girl who looked like a fairy.
Daiyu's mother went early, although her status is now noble, there are always people who will talk about it behind her back.
With the most honorable woman in the world as the guest of honor, whoever dares to talk about losing his mother when he was young is disrespectful to the Queen Mother, and the big-eared scraper will whip him.
……
The royal family is a good-looking party, and the queen mother likes beautiful children the most.
Daiyu's appearance is definitely not the slightest bit faulty, and Empress Dowager Cao's affection for her is no lower than that of her own daughter and granddaughter.
In addition, after finally leaving the palace, the lively Queen Mother was welcomed into the back hall, and immediately sent the ceremonial officials of the Ministry of Rites and Zongzheng Temple to the front and began to check the prepared ritual process.
"Replace those ritual utensils, and replace those brought by the main palace. Those gold and silver utensils are very cheesy, how can they match my fairy girl. ”
"Why didn't the musicians of Taichang Temple come? What are you people in the Ministry of Rites thinking, they actually invited people from the market! Hurry up and find it, before the ceremony begins, the palace wants to see the people of Taichang Siqing! ”
The Queen Mother rarely sees foreign ministers, but today it makes the heads of the Ministry of Rites and Zongzheng Temple sweat.
Can't be provoked, can't be provoked!
They had no choice but to replace the ritual utensils as soon as possible, and hurriedly sent people to invite people from Taichang Temple to come over.
When the ceremony was about to begin, the Queen Mother was finally satisfied.
……
Knock, knock, duang~
Whining~
Huanghuafang ushered in a team of majestic and noble drivers, and the embroidered gold dragon flag of the five-clawed dragon showed the owner of the car.
The emperor actually came to the Lin Mansion before noon, which was definitely not expected by anyone.
After a succession, everyone who had experienced welcoming the crown prince and the queen mother gathered outside the gate of the Lin Mansion again and bowed down to greet the emperor.
"The ministers (grass people) pay a visit to our emperor, long live, long live, long live!"
The emperor, dressed in a black-on-background gold-patterned dragon robe, got off the royal throne, and the first thing he said when he walked to the door of the Lin Mansion was actually to Lin Ruhai.
"The world says that there are two Pixiu in Great Xia, one is Wen Tongxuan, who has entered the cabinet, and the other is Lin Ruhai, the head of the household department. It was the two of them who gave the dynasty the confidence to fight against the enemy and appease the Li people. ”
"Fighting on the battlefield is a merit, and stabilizing the rear is also a merit."
"I will not forget the merits of anyone, so I came here today to celebrate my daughter, and secondly, to reward me!"
"Otomo!"
In the surprised and puzzled eyes of everyone, Xia Shouzhong held a seven-colored dragon pattern holy decree in his hand, raised it and said loudly: "Holy decree!" Zhu Guo, Doctor Rong Lu, and Hubu Shangshu Lin Ruhai received the order! ”
Fortunately, today, the Lin Mansion prepared an incense case, and I was afraid that the emperor would give Daiyu a holy decree reward halfway.
Soon the incense case was placed in front of the gate, and Lin Ruhai led a group of Lin people to kneel down to receive the order.
I saw Xia Shouzhong open the holy decree and preach loudly: "I said, I have heard that the courtiers serve the king with merit, and the king rewards the ministers with knights...... Enshrined Lin Hai as the founder of the country, and promoted sincerity and observance of the text, and the marquis of Changzhou County, ......"
Wenchen was made a marquis, this was definitely a major event that shocked the government and the opposition.
Lin Ruhai didn't know if he was dreaming at this time, he stayed in place stupidly, or Lin Bai on the side reminded him in a whisper, so he took the clansmen to kowtow in a daze.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Hooray, hooray, hooray! ”
With a shout of hooray, the crowd who bowed down to watch the ceremony was also stupid.
I thought it was just a reward or two, but I didn't expect this reward to be too amazing.
Lin Ruhai turned out to be a marquis!

Meow, the network was disconnected halfway, and there were some repetitions, so I revised it again.
The old man looks at the important thing and has a problem, just refresh it.
That's all for tonight, continue tomorrow, good night!
