The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 608
Jia Ke looked at Sun Yan's determined expression and nodded, thinking in his heart, that's fine, as long as he passes the test, although he can't trust him like before, he can still give him a good death.

So Jia Ke agreed to Sun Yan's request and asked him to personally supervise the beheading three days later.

Looking at the actions of the court in the past few days, Tian Ye knew that the dynasty was over. After Jia Ke's clean-up this time, almost all the people who were interested in the court were cleared out.

Fan Kang saw that this major event was over, and then the positions in the court were filled, and the most important thing was the people in the Ministry of Household Affairs.

So Fan Kang stood up and saluted Jia Ke again, and then said: "My lord, the court has been stabilized now, and many positions have been controlled due to the involvement of its chiefs in the rebellion. I don't know how to deal with it. Please inform me, my lord."

Jia Ke entered here, knocked on the imperial case, and began to think about other candidates. The most important thing is the position of Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. If it is not his confidant, he must not be able to take it.

After Jia Kesi thought about it, among the civil servants under his command, there were not many who had this ability.

Jia Ke was looking for recommendations from a few people who were close to her recently, when suddenly a flash of inspiration came to her mind.

This person is Jia Yucun, the prefect of Jinling. If you say that this person's character in Dream of Red Mansions is really bad, but he still has some skills, otherwise he would not be able to achieve the position of Minister of the Ministry of War.

"In my opinion, Jia Yucun, the prefect of Jinling, should take the position of Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs."

Jia Ke gave this order directly without discussing it with the people below.

Fan Kang didn't care after hearing this. He had heard about Jia Yucun. Although his official voice was not good, he was indeed Jia Ke's confidant. He handled some difficult matters for Jia Ke in Jinling. It's nothing to come up.

So Fan Kang said: "Since the lord has made a decision, let's go back and ask the Military Aircraft Office to send a document to the official department, let them write down the number of officials, and then send it to the lord for a seal, and then send it to Jinling. Umura hastened to take office."

Jia Ke nodded, and then continued: "Other people, your military aircraft department will jointly draw up a list, and then send it to me, and I will talk about it after I read it."

So everyone retreated separately and went to work at the military aircraft office.

After these people left, Li Deshan came to Jia Ke's side and said quietly: "Master, just now the spies came to report that Madam and Concubine Xiande were discussing the matter of letting the little prince ascend the throne."

Jia Ke immediately became vigilant when he heard this, and then asked, "Tell me about the situation."

"Returning to the master, it was the virtuous concubine who proposed to the madam to ask the madam to go back and persuade the old lady to make the little prince the emperor, and to promise that the master will continue to be in charge of the court, so that the family will be prosperous and prosperous in the future."

After Jia Ke heard this, she didn't speak, but thought for herself. The next emperor might not be able to stay, so should she ascend the throne directly, or keep a child for a while?
Jia Ke couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he ascended the throne directly. Although it was easy to talk about, the affairs in the south of the Yangtze River had not been completely settled, and many of the gentry still had their hearts towards the court.

In the end, Jia Ke decided to make a transition for a while. In the name of the court, let the little emperor sit in front of him, and clear up the facts in Jiangnan first, and then spread them to his parents.When these things are calmed down, it will be a matter of course.

After Jia Ke figured it out, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Li Deshan, "Concubine Xiande continues to strengthen surveillance, so that Dai Quan can also wake up."

Li Deshan quickly agreed, and then went out to spread the word.

In the dormitory of Dongnuange, Jia Ke was the only one left there, his expression changing, cloudy or sunny.

It would be a lie to say that Jia Ke didn't want to directly ascend the throne and become emperor, but now he has launched two mutinies within a year. If there is a big turmoil, the world may be unstable.

Thinking of this, Jia Ke could only sigh helplessly, it seemed that the time had not yet come.

Besides, Mrs. Wang left the palace and returned to the Rongguo Mansion, and first came to Jia Zheng's study.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Jia Zheng was teaching Jia Huan to study. The two looked like a loving father and a filial son.

Mrs. Wang felt very glaring when she looked at it. It was already bad enough for her to have an Aunt Zhou here. Could it be that there was another Aunt Zhao? Let this Jia Huan be beaten like a chicken, and there is no way to let another person like Xiang Jia Ke appear in the back house.

At this time, Jia Zheng had seen Mrs. Wang's suggestion, so he waved Jia Huan back out. Mrs. Wang saluted Jia Zheng first, and then sat down on Jia Zheng's knee.

Jia Zheng sat seriously in the middle, stroked his beard with one hand and said, "I heard that you entered the palace just now, I don't know what's going on in the palace now."

Mrs. Wang hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "Our girl has been wronged for a while. She was hijacked out of the palace by the empress dowager and almost lost her life."

Jia Zheng just nodded when he heard this, and didn't have any words of comfort.

Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Zheng didn't talk to her, so she could only make it clear: "What our daughter means is that if the emperor is gone, it's better to let the little prince ascend the throne first."

After hearing this, Jia Zheng's eyes lit up with golden light, and then he glared fiercely at Mrs. Wang and said, "Ignorant fool, do you want to destroy the Jia family's hundreds of years of foundation in your hands?"

When Mrs. Wang heard Jia Zheng's words, she knew that he was angry, so she stood up quickly and said, "Master, please calm down. It's not what I meant, but the girl asked me to pass the message to the master and the old lady."

Jia Zheng glanced at her, and then said icily, "Don't worry about this matter, the old lady and I are the ones to decide. You can go back."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang could only leave the small study quietly.

As soon as Mrs. Wang left behind the screen, Aunt Zhao turned out.

Aunt Zhao first came to Jia Zheng's side, patted him on the back, and then said softly, "Sir, don't be angry, it's not worth it to get angry, and Madam just loves her daughter."

When Jia Zheng saw Aunt Zhao coming out, he kept silent. After Aunt Zhao patted him on the back for a long time, he said, "Don't spread the word about this matter. If it gets to the elder brother's ears, then our family will But it's going to be messy."

After listening to Aunt Zhao's full agreement, she was actually very annoyed by Mrs. Wang's words just now, and at the same time she did not understand Mrs. Wang's thoughts.

It's wrong to be a good queen mother, she insists on being a queen's mother, I don't know what she thinks in her heart, that is, she doesn't think for herself, maybe she doesn't think for her own children.

On this point, Aunt Zhao's thoughts are very firm. As long as Jia Huan is good, what happens to her other child, Jia Tanchun, has nothing to do with her.

If Jia Ke became the emperor, Jia Huan, as his younger brother, would not be able to run away with a county prince, not like a bastard in a duke's mansion now.

Mrs. Wang remembered what happened just now. She worshiped the Buddha for a while in the Buddhist hall in her room.

Then he ordered his maid, Yu Chuan'er, to call the concubine Jia Huan.

After Jia Huan came, he saluted Mrs. Wang first, and then stood there respectfully waiting for Mrs. Wang to speak, with a small face like an adult.

Seeing Jia Huan like this, Mrs. Wang felt even more displeased. Compared with Jia Huan, his and her Jia Baoyu were almost thrown to the ground.

"I paid my respects to the Buddha today, and I suddenly felt that he expressed my sincerity. Please copy the "Diamond Sutra" for me."

Jia Huan didn't feel any annoyance when he heard this, he just saluted Mrs. Wang respectfully, and then fetched the Four Treasures of the Study from the small table next to him, and started copying scriptures in the Buddhist hall.

And that night, Aunt Zhao scolded Sang and Huai all night in the yard, which shows how angry she was.

In the next few days, Jia Zheng went to Jia Mu's room several times, but he didn't know what they were discussing. Every time they talked, the maids in the house were driven away, and even the mandarin ducks could only stay outside the courtyard. Guard them.

After they discussed it, Mother Jia ordered someone to invite Jia Ke to come back.

Jia Ke has finally straightened out the government affairs these few days, and has begun to relax, not as busy as before.

On the third day, Li Deshan wiped out all the children who were hiding among the people.

It turned out that the butler of the Zhongshun Palace, seeing that his life was in danger, sold his master in order to save his family's lives.

Poor King Zhongshun tried all his tricks, but in the end he still didn't save his last flesh and blood.

As soon as Li Deshan got the news, he was overjoyed. He didn't need anyone else, he took the secret guards and ran there himself.

At this time, all five or six young children were brought back, even the poor families who took them in were not spared.

After Jia Ke got the letter, she said blankly, "Let's send their family to reunite."

After hearing this, Li Deshan quietly withdrew, and these children never appeared again.

One day, Jia Ke was in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, having fun with his two newly adopted concubines, when suddenly he received a message from Mother Jia asking him to go back to Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Ke thought something was going on at home, so she didn't dare to neglect, and immediately rode back to Rongguo Mansion with a few eunuchs and guards.

When he arrived at the Rongguo Mansion, he found that the Rongguo Mansion was peaceful and nothing happened, so he was relieved, and then he randomly grabbed a young man and came over to question him.

"Has there been any major events in the mansion recently?"

This young man saw Jia Ke, and he was already trembling all over, but now he could only stammer when he heard his question: "If you go back to my uncle, there is nothing happening in the mansion right now."

"Really?" Jia Ke asked again.

The boy was really frightened this time, so he stood there trembling all over, but his mind kept thinking about what happened in the mansion recently.

Finally, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of something.
