The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 446 Push into the fire pit
After Jia Min finalized the overall situation of revising the provincial hospital, he handed over the specific matters to Jia Lian and Xue Biao, and then returned to Yeduju by himself.

Today's Jia Lian is fundamentally different from before.

Not only has the experience and ability been greatly improved, but also the character and the sense of responsibility to the Jia family are fundamentally different from before.

In the future, Jia Lian will be the best helm of Rongguo Mansion and even Ningguo Mansion.

At the same time, after these two years of experience, the younger generation of the Jia family has grown up.

Jia Qiang, Jia Yun, Jia Qin, Jia Zhi, Jia Ping, Qin Zhong, etc. are no longer what they used to be.

These people are not only capable, but also reliable and loyal to Jia Min.Can resolutely implement Jia Min's will.

For the Jia family, the biggest gain in the past two years is actually people like Jia Lian and Jia Qiang.The growth of these people has successfully avoided the problem of talent gap in Jia's mansion.

Otherwise, no matter how powerful the Jia family is like Baoyu, Jia Huan, and Jia Rong, it will be destroyed in their hands sooner or later.

In the internal affairs of the two governments, the younger generation such as Qin Keqing, Baochai, Tanchun and Li Wan appeared, and they successfully provoked the leadership of Jia's government.

Now what Jia Min wants to do, he doesn't have to do it himself like before.As long as you state your intentions and directions, these people will follow through.

With talent, everything will be easy.For a big family, this is the most important wealth.

Jia Min's opinion on the construction of the provincial court is different from others.

The name is to promote filial piety, so that concubines can meet and reunite with their families.

Actually, when you think about it, this excuse seems ridiculous.

When the concubines visit their relatives, a large number of eunuchs and court ladies have to accompany them. The imperial guards and imperial guards are also facing the enemy. They say they are reuniting with their families, but in fact they have no private space to get along with them.

In terms of time, the itinerary is also very tight, that is, seven or eight hours.

There is no essential difference between this and concubines who usually meet their families in the Jiaofang on the [-]th of every month.

Therefore, Jia Min suspected that the emperor actually had other motives for this move.

There is only one real motive, and that is to take the opportunity to weaken the financial resources of these concubines' families.

No one will be fooled by the repair and construction of the provincial hospital, and a lot of money will have to be invested.Seven to eight million taels of silver is a heavy burden even for a top family.

Just this one investment may bring down a big family.Even if it doesn't break down, it is likely to be in debt.The financial distress of the family is unavoidable.

Why did the emperor do this?

Naturally, it is for the need to maintain imperial power.

Throughout the dynasties, the maintenance of imperial power has relied on the four major power groups.

One is the power of civil servants, which is the basis for the daily operation of the imperial court.

The second is the noble forces, which are the heroes and their descendants when they fought in the country.To a certain extent, they share common interests with the emperor.

The third is the power of eunuchs, which is the power around the emperor.

The fourth is the power of foreign relatives.If the power of foreign relatives is strong, it will also be detrimental to the imperial power.

Because the influence of foreign relatives involves the position and power of the queen, and the position of the queen involves the position of the prince.The position of the crown prince also involves the issue of succession to the throne.

It is best for these four forces to balance and even restrain each other.Or the four forces are relatively weak, so that the emperor can handle it with ease.

It was based on this logic that Jia Min made the judgment that the revision of the provincial court was a measure taken by the emperor to weaken his relatives.

According to the same logic, there was a brand new explanation for the practice of military soldiers by the major families that started the year before last.

It takes a lot of money to manage the government soldiers, which is also a means of weakening the major families.

If it catches up with a war like the Battle of North Wendura last year, the losses of each family will not only be money.And the children of the younger generation in the family.

In fact, in the Battle of North Wendura last year, the major families suffered heavy losses both in terms of money and personnel.

The only exception is the five families and six houses of the Jia Min Mansion Corps.

These five families and six houses not only suffered no losses, but became stronger as a result of the war.

If the emperor really wanted to weaken the major families, his purpose, on the Jia Min Mansion Corps, would be completely defeated.

Therefore, it is a matter of course that the government corps will be abolished in the end.

It is said to be abolished, but in fact, after the Battle of North Wendura, the troops and regiments of the various provinces have lost all their personnel and equipment, and they have already existed in name only.

The only remaining fruit is the increasingly powerful Jia Min Mansion Corps.

Thinking of these, Jia Min couldn't help but think about the construction of the Provincial Family Hospital this time.

If the emperor knew that not only would the Jia family not be weakened through this matter in the future, but the Jia family would have gained another source of income and become more economically powerful, I don't know how it would feel.

The difference between the Jia family and other families is that it belongs to both the honorable group and the foreign relatives group.

This identity can easily arouse the fear of other group forces.

At present, the eunuch forces basically do not have much influence on the government. The main forces are actually the civil servants and other noble forces.

Therefore, weakening the power of foreign relatives is not only in the interests of the emperor, but also in the interests of civil servants and nobles.

The construction of the Provincial Court is obviously an image project that wastes people's money and money. With the shrewdness of the emperor and princes and ministers, can't you see it?

It can be clearly seen that it is actively promoted, obviously with ulterior motives.

The days of Yeduju are peaceful and peaceful.

Now there is no one else here, only one left-behind class left.

Here, Jia Min has obtained rare purity.

Tired of staying, I went to Liujiazhuang and got together with Fang Xiucai from time to time.Or go to Xiawazi and have a drink with Liu Tieshan and Nan'er.

After a while, he plans to go to Zhili to see Ning'er, and then go back to his hometown.

After finishing the arrangements here, he will go to Bukui.

This time he went to Bukui, according to his prediction, he would not return to the imperial capital for a long time.

At this time, Jia Min was eating wine with Niu Jizong.

Since Niu Jizong was rescued in North Wendula, Niu Jizong, Liu Fang and others have completely reconciled with Jia Min.

However, the other three people did not come this time, only Niu Jizong came today.

After Zhang Decai arranged the food and wine, he quietly withdrew, leaving only Jia Min and Niu Jizong, drinking slowly.

"Brother Niu seems to have something to say? Is there something embarrassing?"

Jia Min had already seen that Niu Jizong was restless.It seemed that he wanted to say something, but he stopped talking.

"It's not that I have anything to do, but I'm worried about Brother Min."

"Brother Niu, why did you say that? I am now alone and have nothing to do with others."

"Yesterday Luo Hanlin invited some of us to drink and said some incomprehensible things, so today I'm here to remind Brother Min to be on guard."

"Luo Hanlin? Why is this person always aggressive? I'm a white man now, why don't you let me go? What's the plot this time?"

"It's not good, just say it's a conspiracy. It sounds like he's thinking of you wholeheartedly. It's just that this person has a deep prejudice against you. Such a change this time is indeed suspicious."

"Oh? It's strange that Luo Hanlin would think about me."

"He said that recently he, his uncle and others are preparing to push you to come back."

"Push me back? Not likely."

"This is exactly what makes people suspicious. In a few days, the deputy head of the clan's mansion Wang will retire and return home. He said he will push you to take over as deputy head Wang."

"Clan Mansion? Hehe, that's not a good job."

"That's right. The clan's mansion is in charge of the royal families. It's a thankless pit of fire. Whoever goes there will be unlucky. Deputy Chief Wang was originally a person who was expected to be a military scholar. Renfu delayed his future, and now he has long been disheartened and asked the emperor to resign many times, and the emperor has only recently let go."

"This is to hang me up and roast me on the fire. However, Brother Niu, don't worry, the emperor will not allow me to go."

"At first I thought so too, but I heard that His Highness Chang'an and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are also actively working on this matter, so I became anxious for Fourth Brother Min."

Hearing that the crown prince and Chang'an were involved, Jia Min had to pay attention.

He knew that because he opposed the war last time, the emperor didn't want to see him.

Subsequent defeats and his own rescue of the prince and princess, and the recovery of South Wendura were actually slapping the emperor in the face.

The emperor has not allowed Jia Min to come back. For Jia Min, this matter has long since passed, and he no longer has any grudges about it.

However, this matter is not over for the emperor.

Every emperor, no matter how stupid he is, doesn't want others to regard him as a stupid emperor, but likes to regard himself as a wise emperor.

Jia Min's military exploits have been made successively, but they can't be reused now. For the emperor, it is also a double-edged sword.

This certainly shows his authority, but those who should be rewarded are not rewarded, and those who should be punished are not punished, which is also a loss to the emperor's reputation.

This is true for a meritorious person like Jia Min. Others will doubt the emperor's conduct and actions if they don't talk about it.

Will such an encounter happen to me in the future?
Therefore, it is entirely possible for the emperor to reactivate Jia Min at an appropriate time.

It seems like a good choice to put Jia Min in the distance and keep him by his side.

Managing the affairs of the royal family has always been a tricky job. If it is not done well, taking this opportunity to weaken Jia Min's reputation seems to prove the correctness of not using Jia Min in the past.

If Jia Min managed the clan mansion well, there would be no loss for the emperor.

The members of the royal family are also very complicated. It is also a good thing for the emperor to use Jia Min's iron fist to integrate the order of the royal family.

As for Chang'an and the crown prince intervening, Jia Min believed that their motives were different.

The prince must have had bad intentions and pushed himself into this pit of fire.

Chang'an was out of kindness and wanted to fight for some justice for Jia Min, so that he could get some compensation and have a better future in the future.

As for Luo Hanlin and Luo Qihua, they would not have any good intentions.Although the motive is not necessarily the same as that of the prince, but it is certain to want to make him unlucky.
