"Old Ancestor, Old Ancestor! Look at it! Chrysanthemums are blooming! The little fat man, dressed like a bear, stood in front of a flower pot and said to Jia Mu in a bouncing manner.

"Oh, it's time in a blink of an eye, come, Baoyu, the ancestors will test you, what are the names of these chrysanthemums?"

"Baoyu knows! It's called..."

As soon as Baoyu wanted to speak, a sound of running came over, getting closer and closer, interrupting Baoyu's answer.

Jia Baoyu looked in the direction where the voice came from with an unhappy face, and suddenly, a huge figure like a bear rushed over.

"Old lady, borrow Baoyu for use!"

Without waiting for the old lady to reply, the black-faced man scooped up the little fat man and rushed out of the flower hall.

It happened too quickly and suddenly, Jia Mu was stunned in place, waiting for the big man to run away before reacting.

"It's... What are you going to do with Brother Hun'er? And the treasure jade? ”

。。。。。。

"Brother Zhu, hurry, catch it steadily!" Jia Zhu, who was waiting at the gate early, saw a purple-robed man running over with a bear in his arms, and then got into the car.

"Big brother, you..." Before Jia Zhu finished speaking, there was a little fat man crying in his arms, and when he looked at it, it was not his own second master.

"Oops, this kid has been howling all the way, and his voice is so bright."

Jia Hui rubbed his old waist again.

"Also, this little fat man is not light."

"Heh, it's the eldest brother, you were killed by two sisters-in-law last night..."

"Go, go, go! A certain family can fight with them all day! ”

The two brothers laughed, and the sense of alienation that had been caused by years of not seeing each other gradually dissipated.

Wiping the non-existent sweat on his forehead, Jia Hui got on the horse and turned his head to look at Jia Baoyu who was crying in Jia Zhu's arms.

"Don't howl, let's go see Big Sister Ling today, if you are obedient, go back and buy you something delicious!"

Hearing the two keywords of big sister and delicious, the little fat man immediately quieted down and sat obediently in the corner of the carriage.

"Hey, this kid, I've never seen you so obedient on weekdays..."Jia Zhu Yile rubbed Jia Baoyu's bag head, causing Baoyu to shrink his neck and keep resisting.

While laughing, the group drove towards Prince Yiyong's mansion.

The people of the Jia clan on Ningrong Street greeted their brothers one after another, and the three brothers responded one by one.

Turning the corner, you will be greeted by a bustling street, with a complete range of shops, and there are many small vendors on the side of the road who are fighting wits and courage with passers-by, and the lively atmosphere has led Baoyu to open the curtains, poke her head out, and look at all kinds of things on the street curiously.

Jia Zhu also looked out the window with a smile on his face, grabbing Baoyu's belt with his left hand, for fear that he would accidentally fall from the window.

"Ice-Sugar-Gourd ———"

An old man with gray hair carrying a stack of crystal clear sugar gourds was hawking along the street.

Thanks to the sugar gum tree, the price of sugar in Daqi has dropped to a price that the vast majority of ordinary people can buy from time to time, and thanks to this, the technology and variety of pastries and snacks in this world have also developed to a very high level.

For example, the eleventh floor of the top ten restaurants in Beiping is a famous store specializing in making pastries and snacks and all kinds of snacks.

It's really a lot of civil and military officials' families who order it all year round.

On the street, you can often see the little guys wearing embroidered candy fortune coats of arms, shuttling through the streets and alleys and pulling carts from morning to night.

Jia Hui saw the little fat man leaning out of the window staring at the sugar gourd, and cautiously glanced at himself and immediately retracted it, he was in a good mood and stopped the old man carrying the sugar gourd.

"Hey, old man, come three strings of sugar gourds!"

The soldiers took out the three pennies from their purse and handed them to the old man, and took out three strings of the reddest from the haystack and handed them to Jia Hui.

"Here, one for each person!"

"Thank you, Brother Hui!" Baoyu's eyes lit up, and she took the sugar gourd and retracted it into the carriage to eat.

"Oh, this, big brother, how old am I..."

"Ha, come less, when you were a child, you had to get one on the way home from school, or I paid for it!"

"Ahem, then I'm disrespectful..."

Ignoring Jia Hui's playful face, and the expression of 'it turns out that eldest brother you are such a person' from Bao Erye, Jia Zhu bit down a hawthorn, held it in his mouth, closed his eyes and chewed slowly.

"Kaz... Hmm, it's delicious, uncle, wrap me two more skewers! ”

Jia Hui bit down on a hawthorn, and his eyes lit up, sweet and sour, very delicious!

"Hehe, the noble man knows the goods, the little old man has made sugar gourds all his life, and this is going to be unpalatable again, so it's worth it?" The old man hurriedly took out the glutinous rice paper, wrapped it in two strings, and handed it to Jia Hui's personal soldiers, and said proudly.

"For a lifetime? Yell! I said it's so familiar, Brother Zhu, look! Isn't this the old man who used to buy his sugar gourd after school when we were children! ”

"Oh, Xiao Lao'er was wondering just now, you look so familiar with the nobleman, I haven't dared to admit it, it turns out that it is really Uncle Hui and Uncle Zhu!"

Jia Zhu also poked his head out of the carriage to greet the old man, and after chatting a few words, he made an appointment to send ten strings of eight strings of sugar gourds into the mansion every day, and the three brothers continued to walk towards Prince Yiyong's mansion.

。。。。。。

As the residence of the prince, it is naturally not far from the imperial city, and the palace of the prince of Yiyong is located in the southwest corner of the West Garden.

This used to be the emperor's brother, the mansion of the filial piety of the old prince, but the old prince's brain was pumped and he engaged in smuggling with Monan Mongolia, the emperor was furious when he found out, abolished as a concubine, and was confined to the high wall of Linzi, and ended up depressed in a few years.

The mansion sat idle for decades. Although it has not been inhabited for decades, the old prince is the emperor's younger brother after all, and the mansion built for him is naturally very careful, and he has no choice in terms of materials or craftsmanship, so he can move in with only a little repair.

After marrying Yuan Chun, Chen Jingyuan moved into this palace with his family.

Menzi saw a purple-robed man riding a horse from a distance, followed by a carriage slowly coming, when Menzi's most important skill is to have sharp eyes, after confirming that the group is going to visit the palace, Menzi looked at the face of the purple-robed man.

"Oh, General! The little one greets the general! ”

Menzi recognized Jia Hui at a glance, and hurriedly went up to hold the reins of the horse, and led the horse to the edge of the stepping stone.

"Yo, this isn't Liang Qi! Chen Si asked you to be a protégé? ”

Jia Hui also recognized this person, this is the brother who followed him to the plateau, he was picked by Chen Jingyuan when he was choosing his own soldiers, and now he is sent to see the door.

Don't underestimate the work of this gatekeeper, the seven officials in front of the prime minister, they are the ones they are talking about, and they must be confidants.

"Hehe, the general still remembers the little one, and the little one is grateful! The prince has ordered, the general is not an outsider, he just enters the mansion directly, but, what is in this car? ”

At this time, Jia Zhu opened the curtain and got out of the car with Baoyu.

"Oh, it turned out to be two uncles! The little eyes are clumsy, I didn't recognize this car, I should hit it, the prince also commanded, the two uncles don't need to pass it on, just go directly into the front hall! ”

Menzi made a gesture, and the little guy waiting at the door understood, and hurriedly went to inform the prince that he had gone.

After chatting with his old subordinates, Jia Hui took the two Jia Zhu brothers into the palace.

The basic layout of the palace is similar to that of the Guogong Mansion, and the three of them entered the front hall, and not long after they sat down, the young couple came in.

"Two brothers, Baoyu!" Reunited with his relatives again, even if he was as dignified as Yuanchun, he couldn't help but have red eyes, and the two brothers were naturally not easy to hug, so Baoyu was hugged by Yuanchun.

"Big sister!"

……

"Haha, Chen Si, Chen Si, now that it's over, I have to change my name to my uncle, hahaha..."

Jia Hui looked at Chen Jingyuan with a smug expression.

"Tsk, Ye Zheng'er's uncle is Brother Zhu, you are a hammer uncle..."Chen Jingyuan looked disdainful.

"Hey, you turned your face and didn't recognize anyone?"

Jia Zhu looked at Jia Hui with a smile on his face, although he was the prince's serious uncle, but no matter what, he didn't dare to interject.

The two were tired of scolding, and only then did they notice that they had snubbed Jia Zhu.

"Blame me, blame me, I actually snubbed Brother Zhu, come, sit down and talk."

The Yuanchun sister and brother also finished speaking, and they also sat down.

Jia Hui looked at the way the young couple looked at each other affectionately from time to time, and her heart was settled.

Cheng, it's good to have feelings, and after giving birth to a son-in-law, Yuanchun's position will be completely stable.

"Alas, one of you two is a sister from a certain family who grew up, and the other is a brother who lived and died together, on the day of the wedding, a certain family fought on the grassland, and I never witnessed your husband and wife visiting the church, which is quite a pity." Jia Hui sighed a little.

"What are you talking about, Jinyu, you missed our wedding because you fought for the country, who is with whom between the two of us, the mind is there.

Besides, didn't you also tell Yue Liduo to send her the gift you prepared before you left, it doesn't matter if you come or not, the gift is the most important thing. "At first, it was still human, but the more Chen Jingyuan said it, the cheaper he became.

", is this human?" Jia Hui and Chen Jingyuan glanced at each other and laughed together.

After laughing, Jia Hui looked at Yuan Chun.

Compared with before getting married, the current Yuanchun temperament has changed a lot, his face is radiant, he looks good, and his temperament has changed from elegant and elegant all the way to graceful and luxurious.

"Yes, yes, Sister Yuan, ah no, it's time to change your name to the princess..."

"What did my brother say, but he got into trouble with his sister, and he still called his sister Sister Yuan in private, they are all relatives of his own family, how can he be so raw?"

Yuan Chun hurriedly stopped Jia Hui, joking, it is certainly comfortable to be called the princess Niangniang, but if it is because of this mere title, let yourself and the big backer get together, it will be more than worth the loss.

Besides, seeing the estrangement between her brother and sister who grew up together because of a title is also something she doesn't want to see.

After some tugging, it was finally decided to call Sister Yuan in private.

Another small talk.

"My marriage, I will almost wait until I move back to Luoyang to get married, but things like the bride price have already been pulled to the Li family, and the last two of the six ceremonies are left, and my father has already informed the clansmen of Shendu to help arrange the mansion, and they can get married when they arrive.

I'm married, and it's Brother Zhu's turn next..."

Jia Hui looked at Jia Zhu, who was blushing.

"I haven't asked you, how are you and Miss Li? Settled? ”

"Ah, it's settled, but my wife doesn't seem to be very happy, after all, she always thought that it was the concubine of the great uncle who wanted to marry me, and it turned out to be the niece of the great uncle, although it is a niece, but my old Taishan is actually just a martial arts hall owner, and my wife dislikes the low family background.

But the lord agreed, after all, the eldest uncle has only one niece, two brothers and many sons, just these two girls.

Our second room is counted as a Wenchen, and I also have a reputation for raising people, and I should be matched with a martial arts girl, and the Li family has the support of a great uncle, so I am a high girl Li. ”

Jia Zhu laughed to himself. His own lord is a shadow official, he has no fame, and he thinks that he is a clean official, but he never takes bribes, and his relationship with his colleagues is very stiff, but he is keen on fame and fortune.

I really have to rely on my marriage to turn over.

Fortunately, the relationship between himself and Li Peilan is also good, and they both know the situation at the other party's family, and they don't have any thoughts about it, just live their own lives.

"Brother Zhu, why should you be arrogant, you have also read your article, and it can be regarded as a boutique in last year's Jinshi, but the great uncle has pressed you for a term, and next year Zhengke may have another second-class, or even a third-class Jinshi!"

Besides, now Yuan'er is also a lonely princess, and your family is now a relative of the emperor, but the official position of Lao Taishan is a little lower, this lonely is not a problem, in general, the two of you are compatible! ”

"Yes, yes, you are a young talent in our Rongguo Mansion, don't look down on yourself."

After saying that, the hall fell silent.

Chen Jingyuan opened his mouth to break the silence.

"Hey, Brother Hun, about your reward, I have a bit of gossip, that is..."Chen Si made a look of embarrassment, but his left thumb and index finger kept rubbing.

"Oh."

Anyway, I'll know in two days, and I can't be cheap Chen Si.

"You don't want to hear it?" Chen Si rubbed faster.

"I don't want to."

"Don't, listen to it!"

"I don't listen."

"I don't want much, just the golden knife on your waist..."

"Okay, you Chen Si, I'm afraid you fell in love with me as soon as I entered the door!"

"Hehe, you just say whether to give it or not!"

"Cheng, anyway, I still have a lot of this, oh, this is the golden knife of Shun Ning Bo Ubashi, my trophy, for you."

Jia Hui took the golden knife from his waist and threw it to Chen Si, who reached out and grabbed the golden knife and pulled it out.

A knife in excellent condition.

"You can think clearly, this is the knife that Ubashi used when he ate meat, don't cut the meat and eat it in your mouth when the time comes, only to remember that this is someone else's use."

"I don't have to worry about you, I just see this knife as good-looking, and I usually chop stones to play."

“… Give it back! ”

"Don't don't, don't talk, I'll use this as a dagger, I don't need him to eat, and I don't use it to chop things."

"Humph!"

Jia Hui snorted lightly and took out another golden knife from his arms.

"Wait, you brought two with you?"

"Ah, I originally wanted to give you this one in my arms, this is An Tong's golden knife, but since you have taken a fancy to Ubashi, then I will keep An Tong's one."

"Damn, miscalculated!"

The two talked to themselves, but Jia Zhu and Yuan Chun didn't dare to interject.

"Okay, let's talk about it, how am I going to reward this?"

Jia Hui corrected the crooked topic.

"Ah, that's the case, when I entered the palace yesterday to ask for peace, I ran into my father and grandfather discussing the reward there, and asked about your reward, and then the emperor grandfather told me, how about it, I have heard the secret for you, is it interesting? Why don't you give me An Tong's knife yet! ”

"Tsk, hammer confidential, the edict will be announced in two days, besides, what is the meaning of listening, you didn't ask openly?"

"Cut," Chen Si pursed his lips, "Then go on, the county prince must be fine, but the second saint doesn't want you to rise too fast, it stands to reason that you can destroy the two countries in a row, especially the former Yuan, capture the khan, and give a prince or even the county king enough qualifications."

But the second saint doesn't want to get to the point where there is no seal, besides, he will do it at a young age, and he really plans to rot at home in the next few decades?

So I decided to give your credit to the Duke of Pardon, restore the title of Marquis of the Kingdom that the Duke of Pardon should have obtained, and then build the mansion into a county prince system for you, and finally, the Queen Mother is also ready to give our mother a nickname, what do you think of 'Zhenshu'? ”

"Shhhh

Jia Hui gasped, he felt that this reward was more than he deserved.

The mansion is a county king system, which is a promise that he will be crowned a king with a different surname in the future, and the most important is the prince of the country, and the Rongguo Mansion also has the title of marquis.

Not to mention the nickname, others may not be able to earn an honor for themselves in their lifetime, let alone for their daughters.

In general, although it will feel a little harsh now, the benefits are actually in the future, and it is not a loss.

At this point, the three brothers and sisters of the Jia family hurriedly got up and bowed, and even Baoyu was saluted together by Jia Zhu's head.

This is actually the emperor informing himself in advance through Chen Si's mouth, telling himself that he is not treating himself harshly, but he doesn't want to be unsealable, and he can't bear to say anything, Jia Hui can be said to be treated by the emperor and the emperor as his own family.

"Hurry up, hurry up, it's all your own family, there's no need to be like this, sit down, this makes me uncomfortable!"

The four Jia siblings sat back in their seats.

"Ah, by the way, I forgot to give this to you, come on, one person, one string."

Jia Hui remembered that there were still good things that he forgot to take out, so he hurriedly asked someone to go to the carriage to get them.

After a while, the chamberlain came back with two strings of sugar gourds.

"It's... Sugar gourd? This is also good stuff? Chen Si felt a little funny.

"If this isn't a good thing, when you kid was still in school, you could pull my sleeve and beg me to bring it to you? Now you're disgusted, if you don't eat it, give it to me! ”

Seeing that Jia Hui was about to snatch away his sugar gourd, Chen Jingyuan bit off two hawthorns with one mouth.

"Hmph, hmm..." Chen Jingyuan had two hawthorns in his mouth, and looked at Jia Hui with a provocative expression, he definitely didn't say anything good!

The four peers quarreled, and Baoyu was the only one sitting there alone, he only felt that these four people were very noisy!

。。。。。。

The three Jia Hui brothers stayed until dinner, and then left the palace with their stomachs up.

Jia Hui did not ride a horse, but sat in the carriage, drank too much, and was dizzy for fear of getting into trouble.

"Oops... Big brother, our family's title is finally back. Jia Zhu, who also drank wine, looked out the window and sighed with emotion.

"Yes, then I'm relieved, brother, I'm destined to split up and open another vein. After the family was divided, there was also a high lord in our house, and the Marquis of Rongguo, I was finally able to explain to my ancestors. ”

As a title after the demotion of the prince, the marquis is actually an extraordinary title below the prince and above the princes.

To be precise, it is called the Marquis of County of X, but after all, it is a title derived from the Duke of Guo, and in the end it was set as the highest-ranking marquis during the time of Taizong, but it can only be demoted by the Duke of Guo, and will not be awarded separately.

Therefore, the prince is not in the sixth-rank lordship system, but is a special title.

But if you are demoted again, you will be directly demoted to an earl, and you will not be demoted like a county marquis-county marquis.

Even so, the wealth of Rongguo Mansion can continue for two more generations, as long as you don't run to the line to gamble on the wealth, you can basically eat and wait for death.

There was silence in the carriage, Baoyu was already tired and asleep, Jia Hui also began to nod non-stop, only Jia Zhu, who had not drunk much, was still awake, looking up at the bright moonlight.

Jia Hui still returned home with strong spirits, and after telling everyone the good news of the restoration of the title of Rongguo Mansion, the whole family fell into a sea of joy again.

A joyful atmosphere surrounded Jia Hui who was lying on the chair and accompanied him to sleep.

It's hard to write a good job every day, and I've really tried my best to write like this overnight.

A short paragraph is fine, but the whole chapter is just too difficult, it feels more difficult to write than a war, completely unexpected to me.

I decided to hurry into the political struggle, interspersed with writing about the yard drama and daily life.

(End of chapter)
