Jia Cong leaned against the carriage wall and closed his eyes.
It looked like Yijian had fallen asleep.
But in fact, he kept replaying what had happened just now.
Jia Cong was not a big shot in his previous life.
She was just a newly graduated office worker.
If he had not seen Dream of the Red Chamber from God's perspective,
In the struggle between these big shots, they would be directly ground into pieces!
"A bunch of old silver coins! Each one is more vicious than the last!"
"The emperor is not a good person. If it wasn't for his attitude today, it would be difficult for him to let this matter rest.”
"The conflict between Yuan Ping and the founding families is too fierce!”
"There really isn't anyone useful in the founding of the country. Even Niu Jizong is lacking!”
"Although the other dukes and marquises have all gone to court today, they can't say a word.”
"No, my authority is still too small. I have to think of a way!”
"Right now, the founding bloodline only has 20% of the military forces in their hands. They are too weak!”
Jia Cong pondered for a long time.
The carriage door opened.
Jia Zheng boarded the carriage with a tired expression.
"Why is Second Master working so hard? But is Yuanping making trouble again?"
"No, how dare they continue to cause trouble?”
Jia Zheng shook his head and sighed,"
"According to the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor's calculations, next year will probably be a year of disaster.”
"Many rivers have to be repaired and reinforced this year. The city defense at the border also needs to be repaired.”
"Many of the palaces in the Imperial Palace also need to be repaired. The Retired Emperor also needs to build the Seven Star Pagoda."
"His Majesty asked the Ministry of Works to come up with a plan to repair the river this morning, but with so many things piled up together, the Ministry of Works does not have enough manpower.”
"I'm afraid I'll have to busy myself with these mundane matters for a period of time.”
The corner of Jia Cong's mouth twitched.
Jia Zheng was a very idealistic person.
He was still living in his own world at this age.
You say you admire me,
He was living in a daze and could not control his family.
You say you hate it,
He lived more comfortably than anyone else.
As long as there were guests accompanying him, he could talk freely!
"Second Master has a clear and honest heart. Leave these things to others.”
Jia Zheng said with a worried face,"
"This won't do. The minister, assistant minister, and four physicians are all busy. If I don't go, I'm afraid it will be hard to see them in the future.”
"Besides, His Majesty personally called me to the yamen. I haven't been there for many years.”
Jia Cong was stunned.
This was a good thing!
It seemed that his performance in the imperial court just now had an effect.
Now, Emperor Long Zheng's use to the Jia Clan had to be re-planned!
"Second Master, His Majesty has appointed you?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Where are the three great uncles and the other uncles?”
"Your three granduncles are still discussing military matters. Your other uncles have already come out for a while.”
Jia Cong thought that he was too engrossed in his thoughts.
He didn't notice the commotion outside.
However, it was normal.
After all, it was outside the palace gates.
It was not good to show too much closeness between dignitaries.
Besides, Jia Cong was one generation younger.
There was no reason for her uncle to come over on his own accord.
"Second Master, this is a good thing! His Majesty is going to put the Jia family in an important position!"
"Now that I am in charge of the Brocade Guard Thousand Households, His Majesty has asked Second Master to return to the yamen. It is obvious that he wants Second Master to truly work for His Majesty!”
"As long as Second Master and I don't make any mistakes, I think Eldest Sister will have to be promoted!”
Jia Zheng was stunned for a moment before he realized that Jia Cong was talking about Yuan Chun.
When he thought of his eldest daughter,
Jia Zheng also felt some heartache.
The old lady trained him for a few years before sending him to the palace.
He was only thirteen years old when he first entered. Now, ten years had passed.
Because he didn't have a position, his family members couldn't see him at all!
"Is what you said true? Your big sister is really…"
"Yes! As long as Second Elder Wen doesn't make any mistakes and I perform well, I will definitely be able to do it!”
"Good! Then I'll go to the yamen today and watch those craftsmen do their job well!”
"Second Master might as well lure the people below him! Other people become officials in order to earn money, but our Jia family is not short of money!”
"Oh, right! After you return to the residence, go see the old lady and ask her to give me a thousand taels of silver from the public. No, three thousand taels of silver!”
The thought of the Jia family being put in an important position,
His daughter could be promoted.
Jia Zheng's heart suddenly had a rush of energy!
After the carriage sent Jia Zheng to the Ministry of Works, it returned to the Jia residence.
The Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Works, the Imperial Clan Office, the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor, and other official offices.
They were all on the east wall of the Imperial City.
It was very close to the Jia family.
Jia Cong alighted from the carriage and hurried towards the back of the house.
Sure enough, everyone was in Rongqing Hall at this time.
After greeting them one by one, Jia Cong said,
"Old Taitai, Second Master wants to withdraw three thousand taels of silver from the public and have someone send it to the Ministry of Works.”
"Three thousand taels? But what happened? I'm not talking about you guys today."
"Don't worry, Old Lady. Yesterday's matter has been settled. This is what happened. I'm guessing."
Before he could finish,
A servant girl's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Old Taitai, there are eunuchs from the Palace coming in front. They said that they want First Master and Second Master to go out to receive the imperial edict.”
"Decree?"
Grandmother Jia and Madam Wang were suddenly stunned.
Then, they looked at each other and were overjoyed!
