"Let, let Jia Ying die on the battlefield?”
Madam Wang's expression changed. She was a woman and had never thought of killing anyone.
Although she had all kinds of schemes in her heart, they were all small tricks.
However…
Wang Ziteng was the second son of the Wang Clan, but he was able to become a first-grade official of the current dynasty with his own abilities. He was not a benevolent person.
Speaking of murder.
Wang Ziteng's expression did not even change.
It was as if he had said something unimportant.
"But, but how can we let Jia Ying die on the battlefield? What if the truth gets out? Will it implicate us?”
"Jia Ying is after all the descendant of the Duke of Rong!”Madam Wang was very afraid.
After all.
Jia Ying was not an insignificant commoner.
Wang Ziteng snorted coldly and said,"
"Isn't it all your fault?"
"Besides, the battlefield is extremely dangerous. If you're not careful, you'll be in danger of being imprisoned!”
"Who knows that Jia Ying's death is related to me?”
Mrs. Wang hesitated.
However, he would not go back on his word if he could not go against Wang Ziteng's decision.
Wang Ziteng said indifferently,"
"As long as Jia Ying dies, Xifeng can remarry, and the old lady of the Jia family won't say anything!”
Madam Wang nodded in agreement.
After all.
She also felt that Jia Ying's recent performance was a bit of a steal. With Wang Xifeng's help, it might endanger her second family's position in Rong Mansion.
It's better to raise a tiger than to raise one.
It was better to solve this hidden danger as soon as possible.
...
The appointment document from the Ministry of Personnel Affairs was soon sent to Rong Mansion.
Thanks to the Jia family's background.
Jia Ying was directly promoted from a white body to a rank 6 Vigorous Force Lieutenant, under the command of Niu Jizong, the general of the Northern Conquest University.
Eight thousand soldiers!
However, the imperial court was fighting wars every year, and both taxes and soldiers were extremely tight.
Therefore, the number of soldiers that the lieutenants could command ranged from 3,000 to 5,000.
The news was sent back to Rong Mansion.
Jia Zheng also immediately handed the appointment document and official seal to Jia Ying.
As for Jia Ying, who was determined to join the army.
Jia Zheng was still very satisfied.
One had to know that Jia Zheng used to be a person who enjoyed poetry and wine, but everything he did was to bring honor to his ancestors, so he valued studying and improving himself, returning to the right path.
Jia Zheng had been working diligently in the Ministry of Works for decades.
But he was still a fifth rank official.
On the other hand, the main branch.
Jia She, this fellow, spent his days indulging in debauchery, yet he was able to inherit the title of a first-class Divine General. Even if Jia Lian did not perform meritorious deeds on the battlefield in the future, he would still be able to inherit the title of a second-class general.
Now, Jia Ying had volunteered to go to the battlefield to render meritorious service.
From the bottom of his heart, Jia Zheng hoped that Jia Ying would be able to help people like them.
During the conversation.
Jia Ying also sensed Jia Zheng's helplessness and disappointment.
The title and official position here.
There were two types of people: Lord and Noble.
Back then, when the two Great Masters were conferred the title of First Grade Duke, they were considered as Lords based on military merits.
Although titles could be hereditary.
However, there were also regulations that non-eldest sons could not inherit, and those with physical defects could not inherit.
In addition, if the descendants did not make great contributions on the battlefield, they could only inherit the noble title without any real power.
For example, Jia Daihua of the Ningguo Manor did not go to the battlefield to make contributions.
Therefore, he only inherited the noble title of a first-class general.
Jia Daihua's son, Jia Jing, was supposed to be a second-class general, but Jia Jing had entered a Taoist temple to cultivate, so the title fell to Jia Zhen. Jia Zhen inherited the title of third-class general, and was also a noble title with salary but no real power.
The situation in Rong Mansion was slightly different.
Jia Daishan was also the late husband of Grandmother Jia. He had made great contributions in the army in his early years and inherited Jia Yuan's title of Duke.
From top to bottom, there were princes, princes, dukes, marquises, earls, viscounts, and barons.
From top to bottom, he was a first-class general, a second-class general…Fifth class general;
Jia Daishan's son, Jia She, had never been on the battlefield.
Therefore, he no longer inherited the title of Lord Cheng and was only given the noble title of a first-class general.
If nothing unexpected happened.
In the future, Jia Zhen's son, Jia Rong, would be a fourth-class general, while Jia She's son, Jia Lian, would inherit the title of second-class general.
It could be said.
The ancestors of the two mansions.
There are two generations of three public fame.
It has been passed down to this day.
However, there was not even a Lord in the residence. They were all nobles with no real power.
His noble title has not been passed down for more than five generations.
Once he became a fifth-grade general, he wouldn't be able to make any contributions.
Five generations later.
They would completely lose their hereditary qualifications.
This was also one of the reasons why the Jia family was in a hurry to change their family. Jia She, Jia Jing, and Jia Zhen had inherited the title, but they did not properly serve as officials.
The juniors Jia Lian, Jia Rong, and the others were also good-for-nothings.
In the long run.
The Jia family would inevitably fall.
Jia Zheng often urged Jia Baoyu and Jia Huan to study. He also hoped that the two of them would be able to obtain an official rank in the future and continue to maintain the glory of the Jia family.
As for inheriting the title?
As the second branch, they were not qualified to inherit the title of nobility. Even if it was a noble title, it was not their turn.
In the study room.
Jia Zheng and Jia Ying said a bunch of sincere words.
Obviously.
Although Jia Zheng was the manager of Rong Mansion, he was well aware of the current predicament of the Jia Mansion.
It was just that he had no way to turn the tide.
Jia Ying sighed.
Before he left.
Jia Zheng looked at Jia Ying again and said emotionally,
"Jing Yan is going to the battlefield!"
"You must always encourage yourself! He mustn't learn those absurd things of drinking, drinking, whoring, and gambling in the military camp!”
"Your father and brother should take this as a warning!”
Jia Zheng was a Confucian scholar.
That was why he liked to call Jia Ying by her scientific name, which was Jing Yan.
Jia Ying promised.
Only then did he leave.
He looked at Jia Ying's back.
He actually looked a little like his grandfather in the past.
Jia Zheng was secretly amazed.
"Such a good young seedling, why was he born in Jia She's room?”
"It's a pity that he's not the eldest grandson.”
"What a pity!"
