Chapter 133: Provoking a villain
Chapter 133 Provoking a villain
Many people know that Jia Rong and Liu Weitao have close contacts.
They all value the token in Liu Weitao's hand. Being able to enter and leave the palace at will is not a privilege that everyone can have.
Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian laughed and said: "With this big tree, our family is not afraid of running out of money."
Jia Lian folded the newspaper and laughed at her, "That's all Rong's fault. What does it have to do with you?"
Wang Xifeng snorted, "Even Brother Rong knows how to bring money home, but it's better that you only know how to throw money away."
Comparing Jia Rong and Jia Lian together, Jia Lian, who looked very good in the past, is now much inferior.
Wang Xifeng complained a little in her heart, but in the end she had no choice but to do anything.
That night, Jia Rong ordered Dongzi and others to quietly send Liuer back to Liu's house.
Mrs. Zhang announced to the public that Liu'er was ill and had to be kept in a room to recuperate.
Fortunately, Liu'er rarely went out of the yard before, so not many people remembered her face.
Ziwei Sheren’s sister works as a maid in her own house, where does this put Sheren’s face?
The emperor's dog slave's sister has become a slave, does the emperor have no objection?
When you beat a dog, you have to look at the owner. If you don’t look at Liu Weitao’s face, you have to give the emperor face.
……
The Supreme Emperor read the Sunshine Daily, and Long Yan was delighted, "Jia Rong has done a good job."
"Go and ask Jia Rong to come see me."
"Yes."
Jia Rong was a little surprised to be suddenly summoned by the Supreme Emperor.
Since he was called, he quickly followed.
Along the way, imagine the various questions the Emperor might ask, and then think of corresponding sentences.
When I arrived at the small garden outside the Emperor's residence, I saw an old man with a long beard and gray hair in a purple robe admiring flowers from a distance.
There were imperial guards guarding the surroundings, but the little eunuch was nowhere to be seen.
But not far away there is a plate of loquats and bayberry.
Loquats are out of season, but it’s not easy to still find round and plump fruits.
The bayberry trees have just been picked and have not yet been sent to Kyoto on a large scale.
The old man in front of me can eat fresh fruit. He is either the Supreme Emperor or an old prince from the royal family.
It is very likely that he is the younger brother of the Supreme Emperor.
Can't ignore it.
Jia Rong stepped forward and asked: "Old man, are you also here to see the Emperor?"
"Oh? Ah, yes."
The pampered old man nodded, "You also come to see him, old guy?"
"The Supreme Emperor is not old, he is getting stronger with age.
The minister was summoned.
I ran over as soon as I called, and I didn’t even have time to ask who was in charge here and who I should report to.”
Jia Rong: This old man is good at digging holes.
"What did I call you for?" He snatched the thing from Jia Rong's hand, "What is this?"
Jia Rong didn't dare to stop him, and he couldn't stop him either.
"This is floor heating equipment and heat cooling equipment.
I don’t know how to make a palace, but I can still make something comfortable.
I'll tell you about their functions, and you can give me palms and eyes. If they can work, that's great. If they can't, I won't show off my shame."
"Well, let's talk about it."
Jia Rong spread out her drawing paper and told him the craftsmanship on it.
"Bury water pipes from here, and when the hot water circulates around, the palace will be warm, even warmer than a heated bed."
"If you build a nine-nine-knot stacked bamboo tree outdoors and water it with water from top to bottom, the cool air will spread around and the house will not be too hot."
"A pedal-style fan is installed here. As long as someone steps on it once, the fan will rotate three times, and people in the room will not feel hot."
See him nodding his head with interest.
Jia Rong carefully spread out a colored scroll, "Look, what do these colors and pictures look like? Wouldn't it be a little rude to show it to the Emperor?"
The house on the drawing is in Jiangnan style, with yellow and green panoramic paintings on the ceiling and walls.
"This side is a bamboo carving. When the time comes, we invite bamboo craftsmen from Jiangnan to come to Beijing and they can make it.
In this way, even if the Emperor cannot go to Jiangnan, he can still enjoy the scenery of Jiangnan."
"It's good, but..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jia Rong put away the drawings and drawings.
Jia Rong looked at the round arch at the other end and said, "Someone is coming out. I'm going to see the Emperor."
He quickly put things away and grabbed whatever the Emperor took.
"Hey, you kid."
Jia Rong: "I'm sorry, I'll show you another day." After saying that, he trotted forward and said, "Eunuch, I was called by the Supreme Emperor. I wonder if the Supreme Emperor is in there? Could you please let me know."
The father-in-law looked behind him, as if to say: Isn't the Supreme Emperor right behind you?
When the father-in-law saw the Emperor shaking his head, he did not dare to speak nonsense, so he said, "Just wait here."
The father-in-law came to the Supreme Emperor and said, "You have been here for a long time. Please come in and have a cup of tea."
The old man walked in and laughed at him: "You are too impatient to eat hot tofu. How about this, give me the drawings and I will help you bring them in."
"This..."
"Are you afraid that I will take your credit?"
"May I ask what your name is?"
"Just call me the old farmer."
"Don't dare to scream. Mr. Farmer, thank you for sending the message."
Later, Jia Rong kept waiting outside. When she met her father-in-law, she asked for help to pass on the message.
After waiting for an hour, no one was summoned, so I could only continue to wait.
The old man who went in must have forgotten that he existed.
Jia Rong wiped the sweat from the corners of her eyes and continued to wait.
It was approaching noon when the father-in-law came out to speak, "The emperor is tired today and doesn't want to see you. Go back."
"Yes."
Feudal society is really tiring. Waiting for the leaders to meet you now can at least have a sip of tea.
These jobs are really not done by humans.
As soon as Jia Rong returned to the Hanlin Academy, someone came up and told him, "Master Long is looking for you. He is very angry. Please be careful."
Lord Long is his immediate superior, the Bachelor of Attendants, so it is under his control for the time being.
When your immediate boss is angry, you may accidentally become the one who gets beaten.
Jia Rong thought of a way and went to see Master Long.
When facing an angry boss, be sure to speak first and say something nice.
"Lord Long, I just came back from the Supreme Emperor.
The Supreme Emperor asked his subordinates who the superior was, and I said it was you, Mr. Long, who wrote the "Wen Dian"."
Master Long, who was originally jealous of Jia Rong's limelight, couldn't find Jia Rong. He was very angry and wanted to scold Jia Rong when he saw him.
As soon as he heard Jia Rong talking about himself in front of the Emperor, he immediately forgot to teach Jia Rong a lesson and quickly asked: "What did the Emperor say?"
"You didn't say anything, did you just say it was the Long family in Yizhou? The official said yes. The emperor didn't say anything."
Lord Long fell into deep thought, what does the Emperor mean by this?
But it’s good that the Supreme Emperor can remember the Long family in Yizhou.
Lord Long's expression was not that bad. He threw a book on the table and said coldly: "Take your book back, which violates the Emperor's taboo.
Next time, the supervisor will be called and you will be interrogated.
When you get to the supervisory end, you will mess with the spies planted by the traitors."
This is really the book I wrote. It seems that someone caught a certain word and applied eye drops in front of the bachelor.
Jia Rong took the book back and said, "Thank you for reminding me, I will never do it again."
Jia Rong walked out of the bachelor's small office and looked at the huge Hanlin Academy.
The Hanlin officials of the same rank and the lower rank all lowered their heads and were busy with their own affairs and did not dare to look this way.
"Hanlin refers to the clear stream; Hanlin refers to the integrity; Feiye refers to the water in the deep pool, which is so dark that the bottom cannot be seen."
Everyone in the Hanlin Academy is pure and clean. Aren’t the people in the Hanlin Academy very honest?
Why is it today as black as the water in a deep pool, so black that you can’t even see the human heart?
Jia Rong glanced at them and raised his head, "Jealousy changes people beyond recognition."
