When the old Emperor talked about the Armament Case, he was furious.
Thinking about it, it made sense.
Those good sons of the Great Zhou,
He didn't die on the battlefield openly.
Instead, it was the blade that rolled and even shattered. He was beheaded by the Tartars with a dumbfounded look on his face and died with grievances!
Change the armament!
Inferior quality!
The person who did this was extremely vicious and had no conscience at all.
Jia Xuan was also furious.”
The soldiers at the front line,
I've been through life and death,
In the end, they died in the hands of the Tartars, but in reality, they were killed by their own people! They were killed by the dignitaries they protected with their lives!
So unfair!
"Investigate this matter in secret."
"Minister Jia, thank you for your hard work. When you return with a great victory, I will reward you properly.”
The old Emperor sighed.
" Yes." Jia Xuan nodded." Selling armaments and killing the soldiers at the front line. The person who did this deserves to die."”
"Alright, dear minister, you may leave."
The old Emperor waved his hand. Jia Xuan nodded and left. The old eunuch Dai Quan led them out of the Imperial Palace.
After Jia Xuan left,
The old Emperor summoned an old eunuch named Lin Xi and asked,""Eunuch Lin, according to your observation, how is Jia Xuan?”
Eunuch Lin Xi was already old, with a head full of white hair and a lot of wrinkles on his face. However, his body was full of blood and Qi. He was the old Grand Master eunuch in the Imperial Palace.
When he heard the old Emperor's question, he thought for a moment and reported,""Your Majesty, Jia Xuan can be of great use.”
"Why?"
"Jia Xuan has the strength of a martial grandmaster. Moreover, according to this old servant's observation, everything Jia Xuan said just now was the truth. It came from the bottom of his heart. This old servant will say something unpleasant. In this old servant's opinion, even if a royal family sells armaments, if they fall into his hands, even if they don't die, they will lose a layer of skin.”
"Hiss, young grandmaster? Good! Good! This is the kind of person I need. When Minister Jia returns from his expedition to Liao, I will let him slowly take over the supervision department and the imperial army.”
The old Emperor coughed violently a few times, and the embroidered handkerchief turned red.
He did not have much time left.
Old Eunuch Lin Xi sighed.""It's a pity that Brother Xiong died early, otherwise why would His Majesty be troubled by the matter of the Crown Prince?”
Brother Xiong was the Crown Prince Zhou Xiong, the youngest son of the old Emperor. He was extremely intelligent. When he was four years old, he came up with the method of weighing elephants on a ship. He was deeply loved by the old Emperor and was made the Crown Prince early on. Unfortunately, he died at the age of six.
On the night of the burial, it rained heavily.
Crown Prince Zhou Xiong's corpse had disappeared without a trace, and the old Emperor had yet to find it. This matter had always been a thorn in the old Emperor's heart, a lifelong regret.
Upon hearing Brother Xiong, the old Emperor aged even more and sighed,""Tell the Inspection Department to work harder. I don't believe that they can't find my Xiong 'er in seven years…"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
“.....”
......
After leaving the palace, Jia Xuan went to the Su family's cloth shop to pick up Cheng Fourth Lady, Lin Daiyu, and the others before returning to Rong Country Manor.
During this period, Dai Quan had already brought five thousand taels of silver, as well as three large chests of gold, silver, and jewelry. He had brought the imperial edict to the Rong Mansion and placed all the gold, silver, and treasures in the Martial Virtue Garden.
When the imperial edict arrived, the Rong Mansion was flattered.
When they saw the silver and the chest full of jewelry, they were even more excited. Unfortunately, these gold and silver treasures were given to Cheng Si Niangzi by His Majesty. They would not dare to touch them even if they had ten guts.
When Lady Wang and Lady Jia saw this, they became even more worried.
On the other hand, Jia Zheng repeatedly praised Jia Xuan, saying that the Jia residence had finally produced a big shot. He also scolded Jia Baoyu for learning from Jia Xuan, angering Jia Baoyu and making him even more jealous of Jia Xuan!
"It's all his fault. Father's mouth is full of him!”
The more Jia Baoyu thought about it, the angrier he became. He simply flicked his sleeves and left to find the servant girls to make rouge.
About an hour later, Jia Xuan returned with the girls. She ignored Grandmother Jia and the others and brought Daiyu and the others to eat in the Martial Virtue Garden. After eating, she sent servants to send Daiyu and the others back to the Grand View Garden.
When Baoyu saw Daiyu and the others return, he said,
She apologized again and even invited Daiyu and the others to make rouge together.
Unfortunately,
Now, Daiyu and the others only felt that Jia Baoyu and Jia Xuan were too different. He was just a naughty child with some exquisite mischief.
Furthermore,
Right now, the three women's thoughts were all on the Su Family's Cloth Shop. They were pondering day and night about how to cooperate with Su Tan 'er to put on a good show and sell all the silk in their hands!
Once it's done,
Each of them would receive tens of thousands of taels of silver!
Under such circumstances, coupled with the fact that Daiyu and the others had been working hard at the cloth shop for a day, they were not in the mood to do anything with Jia Baoyu about rouge and cosmetic powder. They simply refused Jia Baoyu's invitation.
He was once again rejected by the three women.
Jia Baoyu was discouraged and resentful. He even hated Daiyu and the others.
The night was silent.
The next morning, Jia Xuan woke up and signed in.
The sign-in was successful.
[You have received: Iron Futu Army x1000, Shadow Guards x10, Rat Trap x10, Vitality Pills x100!]
[Mouse Trap: Powerful mousetrap. Can be placed under the bed or where mice are. Once someone touches it, it will immediately trigger the mechanism. It is very powerful. Please treat mice kindly.]
[Vitality Pill: Can be consumed to increase Vitality and improve martial arts. Normal people can consume it to strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives.]
Jia Xuan looked at the system reward and revealed a smile. She was overjoyed.
He took out the mousetrap and took a look. It was not anything good. It was just catching mice to prevent thieves. After thinking for a moment, Jia Xuan revealed a wicked smile and casually placed a few mousetraps under his bed to prevent any unscrupulous thieves from barging into his room.
Jia Xuan was still very wary of the people from the Jia residence.
Then, Jia Xuan looked at the Vitality Pill.
This was good stuff!
Consuming one pill every day could increase one's cultivation! Ordinary people could also use it to strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives.
Immediately, Jia Xuan consumed one. The blood essence in his body stirred before it steadily transformed into life essence, making his physique stronger.
"Not bad, the effect is very mild. You can give one to Curly Hair every three months, and I can take one every three days.”
Jia Xuan was pleasantly surprised.
There were a total of four rewards for signing in this time, and there were as many as 100 precious Vitality Pills. Just using them himself would take him nearly a year!
What was going on?
I haven't even conquered the three continents of Liaodong, so why did the reward suddenly increase so much? After thinking about it, Jia Xuan still could not understand. She could only attribute it to the fact that the old emperor had seen her yesterday. Perhaps the old emperor valued her even more.
Not long after, Curly Hair woke up. Jia Xuan smiled and gave Curly Hair a Vitality Pill.
"Eh, what kind of novel food is this?”
Curly Hair did not have any intention of guarding against Jia Xuan. She opened her mouth and ate the Vitality Pill.
In an instant, Qi and blood surged up, and his face turned red.
"Quickly go practice the Brave Crown Spear. This is a pill that can strengthen the body.”
"Good! Curly Hair knew! Ah, my face is so hot!"
Curly Hair hurriedly got up and put on her clothes. She found a wooden stick in the courtyard and began to practice the Courage Crown Spear.
She was just an ordinary woman. Naturally, it would not be as easy for her to eat the Vitality Pill as it was for Jia Xuan. She had to practice the Brave Crown Spear diligently to slowly digest the medicinal strength of the Vitality Pill. Moreover, she could only eat it once every three months.
