Chapter Fifty-Fifth: The Happy Event in Ningguo Mansion

On the twelfth day of the second lunar month in the ninth year of Chongming, it is a good time to get married.

"Pop!"

"Crack!"

In front of the Ningguo Mansion, red silk was spread all over the place, and firecrackers burst out.

In front of the black oil gate, there is a long line of cars, sedans, mules and horses, two miles away.

Today is the day when Jiarong, the direct grandson of Duke Ning Guo, marries the daughter of the Qin family. Everyone from the Jia clan comes to congratulate Duke Ning Guo.

After all, the Jia family's family status is there, and the color of the lintel of a double-gong family has not completely faded. There are four royal palaces of Nan'an County Prince, Dongping County Prince, Xining County Prince and Beijing County Prince, and six royal palaces including Zhenguo Niu Palace.

Eight Houfus including Zhongjing Houshifu and Zhongjing Houshifu all sent people with famous cards to send congratulatory gifts.

Two theatrical troupes have been found in the mansion, one for the gentlemen in the front hall and one for the family members in the back house.

There is also a stall that plays ten rounds. They play and play since early in the morning. It’s so lively!

There was a happy event in the Duke's Mansion, and Jia Yun naturally came to join in the fun. He sat in the corner of the front hall, listening with interest to the babbling Beijing accent above.

In fact, Jia Yun didn't want to join in the fun, but Jia's mother sent someone to post the post, and Jia Yun couldn't refuse.

It has to be said that what Jia Yun wanted in his heart was not to associate with the Jia family, but in fact this was impossible, especially since Jia Yun held an important position, it was even less possible for him to have anything to do with the Jia family.

Unless Jia Yun even gives up his dignity, if Jia Yun does this, even Emperor Chongming, who seems to think more highly of Jia Yun, may have other ideas.

There was a huge gap between Emperor Chongming and the Supreme Emperor, who were as noble as the Son of Heaven. They had to act filial and not speak out, let alone Jia Yunhu.

Jia Yun's fate seemed to be due to luck, but the fundamental reason was the Duke's Palace. If not, it would not be his turn to meet the Holy Spirit.

Now Jia Yun's purpose is also clear. What about Jia's family? Jia Yun is not qualified to participate. The only thing is to have as little contact as possible and not to be dragged down. The most important thing is to maintain the harmony on the surface, not to talk to others, and to be loyal to the emperor.

Others also took advantage of him.

The main reason why Jia Yun came here was because of the wedding of Ning Guogong's grandson. If no one from the seventh house came to celebrate, it would be a joke to others. By then, everyone would not look good.

Therefore, Jia Yun came over to celebrate and have a "light meal".

Just as Jia Yun was getting excited, a beautiful figure came over and said, "Uncle Yun."

Jia Yun raised his eyes and frowned immediately. The person he was greeting was Yuanyang, the maid next to Jia Mu. Wasn't this the old lady looking for him?

You know, Yuanyang will not take the initiative to look for him!

"But the old lady is looking for me?" Jia Yun asked directly.

As expected, Yuanyang responded: "Yes, I'd like to trouble Uncle Yun to go with me."

Jia Yun looked helpless and complained: "What's the matter with this old lady? Isn't it true that I haven't seen her for many days and I miss her great-grandson?"

Yuanyang smiled calmly when he heard this and said: "Uncle Yun is a filial person. It is normal for the old lady to like him. This elder always prefers filial piety. Uncle Yun, do you think so?"

Jia Yun raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He just complained a few words, and the mandarin ducks started to crowd in. She was really a "good maid" around Jia's mother, and she would not tolerate others saying anything wrong about her master.

Jia Yun pursed his lips and stopped chatting with the mandarin ducks. He stood up and said, "Let's go, I just want to say hello to the old lady."

Although he didn't know why Jia Mu was looking for him, Jia Yun knew it was not a good thing. According to past practice, there must be something else for Jia Yun to do. After all, Jia Mu would definitely not send someone to look for him if he had nothing to do.

In this regard, Jia Yun had no choice but to listen first and then make any calculations.

Moreover, Jia Yun also understands that there will definitely be a lot of such things in the future. After all, Jia Yun's location is convenient for doing things. Of course, whether the things can be done is another matter.

After hearing the words, Yuanyang bowed and immediately led the way, and Jia Yun also followed.

Following Yuanyang's way forward, they arrived at Rongqing Hall after a while, bypassed the white crane screen, and saw Jia's mother sitting in the hall, with Mrs. Wang beside her, Aunt Xue, Wang Xifeng, and even Jia She's wife who had not yet greeted her.

Mrs. Xing is also among them.

In addition to the family members of Jia's family, there were also two strange ladies accompanying him, forming a "ladies" party.

Jia Yun ignored everyone and stepped forward to pay homage: "Jia Yun has met the old lady. Please say hello to the old lady."

Jia's mother in the hall nodded with a smile. No matter how much Jia Yun despised Jia Yun in her heart, she must show her kindness on her face. After all, there were "outsiders" present and she couldn't let others laugh at her.

"Hey, this is Brother Yun, he's really majestic."

Hearing the sudden compliment, Jia Yun looked up and saw an unfamiliar face. He looked to be in his thirties or forties. He was dressed in silk and looked very wealthy.

Perhaps because she was afraid that Jia Yun would be rude, Jia's mother introduced her: "This is my nephew's house. Logically speaking, you should call me aunt."

Then he pointed at another woman and said, "This is from the Wang family, you have to call me aunt and grandma."

After listening to Jia Mu's introduction, Jia Yun knew who the two strange women in front of him were. Jia Mu's nephew's family was the wife of Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing, and the aunt of the Wang family was Wang Ziteng's.

wife.

They come here to celebrate on behalf of their husband's family!

Jia Yun didn't need to be reminded by others. He stepped forward and greeted him according to the ceremony: "I've met my aunt and uncle."

Since he was young, these people were naturally at the level of grandma. Jia Yun had no choice but to call him a grass-roots person.

The two of them nodded, very satisfied with Jia Yun's courtesy. Li said, "Good boy, you know etiquette like this. If my boy is as knowledgeable as you, I won't have to worry about it."

This was a compliment, but it made Jia Yun frown, feeling that it was not a good thing.

As expected, Mrs. Li continued to speak: "From now on, you will be very close to each other. My brother is now working as an errand in front of the Holy Master, but he has become more promising. I will trouble him to take care of him in the future, so as not to make him feel upset when he has nothing to do all day long.

"

Jia Yun knew what he knew and said with a smile: "My aunt is joking. Who in the capital doesn't know that the Shi family has two nobles, who are highly regarded by the saints and have not yet been demoted, which is much better than the boy. The boy is still counting on the Shi family's uncle to help him.

!”

This flattery brought a smile to Li's face. After a hundred years of being a noble in the capital, even for a family as powerful as the Duke's Mansion, their titles have been reduced again and again. However, their Shi Family's Holy Favor will last forever, with such a lintel.

How can it not make people proud?

Feeling satisfied, she still had to do what needed to be done. Li said "kindly": "Brother, you don't know that my boy doesn't have a serious job, and the others don't like him. He is picky.

I'm really upset. I heard that my brother is on duty in the Guards Department, so I thought about letting him go and practice as well, and arrange for him to be a deputy lieutenant, so that he can help you."

Faced with Li's frankness, Jia Mu's face darkened, and she complained in her heart that Li was not sensible. How could she say such a thing in front of everyone? It looked too ugly.

However, it was her mother's family after all, and it would be a good thing if she could arrange something, so Jia Mu held back her temper and said nothing.

When Jia Yun heard what Li said, he couldn't help but feel disgusted. He randomly arranged a deputy lieutenant and made it look like he was aggrieved. What a joke.

After a pause, Jia Yun looked as usual and said calmly: "It is a good thing to have relatives to help, but the Guards Department already has enough personnel and it is difficult to arrange them. Even if the boy removes the existing deputy captain, he will not have the right to hold the post, let alone

Besides, you can’t dismiss others without any reason!!”

At the beginning, Jia Yun quickly replenished the military personnel of the Gongwei Department, and he also used this kind of defense. He knew that if others knew that Jia Yun had such power, there would be countless people who would let him go through the back door, especially these so-called elders, who would talk about so-called

If you are close to each other, if you refuse outright, you will offend others.

Jia Yun didn't want to fall out directly now, so he naturally made arrangements in advance to block the faces of them and others. Anyway, he didn't have the power, so it would be much easier to deal with it perfunctorily.

If this reason can't stop them, it won't be too late to fall out!

Anyway, I’ll finish it first in terms of appearance, and we’ll talk about the rest later.

When Li heard this, her face suddenly fell. Since she raised this matter, she would have inquired about it a long time ago. Isn't Jia Yun's words a rejection. The Gongwei Division does not have the right to serve as deputy captain, does it not have the right to recommend him?

As a favorite of the emperor, wouldn't others give him face? To put it bluntly, Jia Yun just doesn't want to help.

"After all, you are an elder, why can't you help with such a trivial matter?" Li said, obviously trying to figure out the identity of the elder.

Jia Yun said nonchalantly: "Of course not, let's be more careful. If there is a vacancy, I will arrange it immediately."

Li's expression softened a lot when she heard this. In her opinion, Jia Yun was probably worried that he might offend others if he was dismissed for no reason. After thinking about it again and again, he gave up and said, "That's fine, I'll leave this matter to my brother."

Jia Yun nodded and said, "Put it on the kid."

When Mrs. Li saw Jia Yun taking over the land, she felt even more satisfied. Mrs. Zhou on the side also became eager when she saw this, and said hurriedly: "Brother Yun, please take care of my boy a little more, is that okay?

"

One and two are the same, so it's not a big problem. Even if they are all the children of the four major families of Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue, Jia Yun is also true.

I saw Jia Yun agreeing: "Auntie, uncle, don't worry, I will have more ideas. Once there is a vacancy, I will focus on the two of you first."

Li and Zhou nodded with satisfaction. This Gongwei Si was close to the emperor, and there were many benefits. If he was favored by the emperor, he would reach the top in one step.

Mrs.

Speechless, wondering if I should mention something about Zhou afterward? Mother Jia in the hall sighed in her heart, looking at the smiling faces of Li and Zhou with pity on their faces.

They also don't think about it, if Jia Yun is a good person, how come the children of the Jia family are not involved in such good deeds? They are still too young to understand the strangeness. Whether there is a vacancy in the Gongwei Department is not a matter of Jia Yun's words.
