"Nephew."
"You're dressed too plainly."
"It wasn't easy for His Majesty to bestow a python robe.”
"Now, other than you, who else is worthy of wearing the python robe?”
Niu Jizong sized up Jia Fou and said with some regret.
"Younger brother was conferred the title of Lang Juxu at the age of twenty, and he is also the only Marquis of Huben since the founding of the dynasty.”
"How can such a good bearing be restrained at home? I will wear a python robe and let the Great Qian men see the lord's bearing.”
Yue Zhongqi also smiled and said.
"That's right, that's right."
"That's right."
Hou Xiaokang, Liu Fang, and Nian Gengyao chimed in.
Qian inherited the Ming Dynasty system, the palace has a gift clothing etiquette, with python clothing as the first, flying fish clothing, bullfighting clothing, unicorn clothing as the second.
Whether it was the python robe, the flying fish robe, the bullfighting robe, or the qilin robe, they were all similar to the dragon robe pattern passed down by His Majesty and were extremely precious.
Especially the python robe, which was decorated with python patterns. The python patterns were similar to the dragon patterns. The python had four claws and was second only to the dragon robe.
It was usually given to the crown prince, empress, empress dowager, meritorious civil and military officials, vassal country kings, tribute country chieftains, and tribal leaders.
Since the founding of the country, only the four eight dukes had been given python clothes. The python clothes of the two dukes of Xianning and Rong were now being worshipped in the ancestral hall.
With the passing of the founding fathers, no one could wear python clothes anymore. Later, Yuan Cong was only given bull clothes.
This was also the reason why Niu Jizong and the others had to wear the imperial bull costume and qilin costume to swagger through the streets.
This was because these few years, the line of founding nobles had been suppressed too harshly by the nobles.
From a certain perspective, the Marquis of Huben, Jia Mei, had already become the leader of the founding nobility. If he could wear the python robe and stand out, who would dare to be impudent?
“嗐!”
"Uncles and brothers."
"The capital hasn't been very peaceful recently, so it's better to keep a low profile.”
Looking deeply at the few of them, Jia Fu said meaningfully.
Thud!
Hearing this.
Niu Jizong and the others frowned slightly, their expressions changing slightly.
They didn't dare to treat Jia Mou as a junior. Now that Jia Mou had solemnly reminded them, these people naturally had to take it to heart.
"Did Nephew hear anything?”
The leader, Niu Jizong, looked at Jia Fou with a solemn expression and asked.
The rest of the people also had serious expressions as they looked at him.
"Sit first."
"Although my courtyard is small, it is not a place where air leaks.”
Jia Cui waved his hand, as if he had other intentions.
"Alright."
Hearing this, Niu Jizong and the others slowly sat down in the courtyard.
Since Jia Fou said that this place was confidential enough, they had no reason not to believe him.
After all, everyone had witnessed the strength of the Overlord Cavalry and the New Moon Cavalry. Even the Royal Guards might not be able to match them.
"Grandpa!"
At this moment, Lian Yue led two servant girls to bring some freshly brewed tea and pastries and placed them on the stone table.
Gazing at everyone, Jia Fou smiled and said indifferently,""I didn't know that uncles and brothers would come. I didn't prepare anything.”
"Just now, I hurriedly arranged for people to order some wine and dishes at the Qinchun Restaurant in the capital. I can only trouble everyone to drink tea first.”
"No worries."
Niu Jizong and the others were still immersed in that sentence and did not care much about drinking tea and eating.
Lintao Marquis Yue Zhong Qi couldn't help but ask,""What did you mean just now?"
"The border has been pacified. After the victory, the capital is bustling with excitement. Why?"
"Swoosh!"
As soon as he said this, Niu Jizong, Liu Fang, Hou Xiaoyong, and Nian Gengyao all focused their attention on Jia Rong.
Although the Divine Capital was good, it was the center of the whirlpool. If they were not careful, their families would be exterminated. They could not afford to slack off at all.
"Brothers, does Uncle know what position the Retired Emperor and His Majesty have bestowed upon me?”
"Hmm? What position?"
"The commander of the Royal Guards Army, General Huben, commands three thousand Overlord Cavalry stationed in the capital.”
Jia Fou picked up the teacup and played with it as he spoke.
What was that?
How could this be?
Instantly.
Niu Jizong and the others could not sit still anymore.
To put it bluntly, the commander of the Royal Guards was just an empty seal. Other than sounding nice, it was useless.
As for the Tiger General, he was merely a third-grade soldier, not to mention that he had not even given out any soldiers, and they were the three thousand Overlord Cavalry that Jia Mou had raised himself.
A supreme marquis of the empire, and this was all he had?
The royal family treated him so poorly!
One had to know that Jia Chi was the leader of the founding fathers, which was why he had these official positions.
If word got out, how could the founding fathers and nobles hold their heads high?
"No, this is definitely not possible. I have to ask His Majesty how can I do this!”
The more he thought about it, the angrier Niu Jizong got. He suddenly stood up and was about to leave the courtyard.
Hou Xiaokang and Liu Fang's expressions were also very ugly.
On the other hand, Yue Zhongqi and Nian Gengyao had just arrived in the capital and didn't fully understand the nobility, so they didn't quite understand.
"Uncle!"
At this moment, Jia Kui shouted,""Don't be anxious. Let me finish first.”
Only then did Niu Jizong return to his seat indignantly.
Facing their gazes, Jia Cui continued,""The battle of Yuan Cong gave birth to a new generation of nobility, forming their own lineage.”
"However, among these people, the highest rank is only a third-class marquis. The rest are counts and viscounts.”
"In the Battle of Datong alone, our founding noble lineage gained a first-class marquis, a second-class marquis, a third-class marquis, and three first-class earls.”
"Right now, the situation has already changed. Our founding fathers have the upper hand, and we have the momentum to suppress the country.”
"I'm the leader of the founding fathers. If I continue to be put in an important position, who else in the palace can control the founding fathers?”
Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking.
It was as if everyone was listening to the morning bell and evening drum.
It turned out that the reason why Jia Cui was not put in an important position was because they were too rich.
In other words, Jia Fou was holding the limelight for the entire line of founding fathers.
"Nephew, I've wronged you."
Niu Jizong, as the person in charge of the Duke's estate and a second-class marquis, immediately understood the mystery behind it.
Immediately, he looked at Jia Fou with some shame.
The others were also a little embarrassed.
This person was resisting the lightning for them, but they ran out to attract attention. What was this!
