Chapter 359 Shi Ding: Young people don't know the seriousness, blindly greedy for power and power

In Rongqing hall, Jia Mu sat on the Arhat bed, surrounded by Mrs. Wang, Li Wan, and Sister Feng, and Aunt Xue and Baochai sat on the embroidered pier below.

Xiangyun sat beside Tanchun, quietly listening to the conversation of several people.

Shi Ding is about forty years old, tall and handsome, with a short beard under his chin, and a beautifully embroidered brocade shirt. At this moment, he brings his wife Zheng to visit and talk to Jia Mu.

Shi Ding is Jia Mu's nephew.

Jia Mu looked at Shi Ding opposite, and said with a smile, "Come as soon as you come, why are you carrying so many gifts?"

In fact, I was a little strange in my heart. If I said that I would leave relatives during the Chinese New Year, but there was still some time left. Of course, I came to see her in advance.

Shi Ding smiled lightly: "Auntie, I know you don't need anything here, but if you don't bring anything and come to the door empty-handed, my nephew is not so proud."

The Zheng family on the side also smiled and said in agreement: "Even if it is a family relationship, etiquette must be considered."

Sister Feng smiled and said: "My ancestors, they all say Mrs. Shi, he is a man of great learning, and his family style is not comparable to that of others."

Jia Mu smiled, then asked Shi Ding why he came, and said, "I heard that Hao'er is here too?"

Shi Ding smiled slightly, and said: "Going back to my aunt, he used to be a garrison in Yangling County. This trip is not going back to Beijing at the end of the year to report to the Ministry of War. Errands, it’s cheaper to be closer to home.”

Jia Mu laughed and said: "That's a good thing. People say that it's hard to be an official in Beijing, and it's not easy to live in Chang'an. But people like us are close to each other, and it's convenient for the whole family to reunite. Maybe there is a satisfactory position." ?”

Shi Ding hesitated and said: "I heard that the Wucheng Bingma Division still lacks a commander and several deputy commanders. Hao'er's qualifications are almost enough."

Upon hearing this, Jia's mother understood Shi Ding's intentions, she smiled and said, "Brother Heng is in charge of the Wucheng Bingma Division now, if he sees what he wants, he may arrange an errand for him. "

Shi Dingdao: "Brother Heng, I'm afraid it won't work if he said it. Brother Heng himself may not have been in charge of the five cities' military affairs for a long time."

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in Rongqing hall, and they looked at each other in blank dismay.

Tanchun and Baochai looked at each other, and they both saw seriousness in each other's eyes.

The smile on Jia Mu's face quickly disappeared, and she asked, "Brother Heng won't serve for long...how do you say that?"

Shi Ding frowned, and said worriedly: "Auntie doesn't know? This morning, the officials impeached Brother Heng for his ineffectiveness in handling affairs, which resulted in Prince Zhongshun being assassinated by gangsters. Now there is an uproar in Beijing."

As soon as these words came out, the entire Rongqing Hall, such as Jiamu, Tanchun, Daiyu, and Baochai, had expressions of worry on their faces.

Impeach?

In the eyes of the inner house woman, this is almost equivalent to being convicted and sent to prison.

Because Jia Zhen was convicted of a crime and lost her title, the reason was impeachment.

Is it...

Everyone was shocked and shouldn't continue to think about it.

As for Mrs. Wang, she was overjoyed, and her eyes couldn't help being excited.

God really opened his eyes?The officials outside impeached the man from Dongfu.

It's no wonder that the news in Rongqing hall is blocked, because how can a woman in the back house pay attention to such court affairs every day without doing anything?

And it happened just this morning, Jia Heng himself had just come out of Daming Palace.

Therefore, when they heard what Shi Ding said, they were shocked when they heard it for the first time, and their hearts were covered with a thick layer of haze.

Jia Mu asked anxiously, "What's going on? Why did the officials want to impeach Brother Heng?"

Seeing that the smile lines on Jia Mu's face disappeared, and the panic in her voice could not be concealed, Mrs. Wang's complexion moved slightly, and a touch of joy surged in her heart.

God can't see a villain being rampant, that arrogant Uncle Heng has finally received his karma.

Facing all the gazes, Shi Ding frowned, and explained: "Yesterday, someone assassinated Prince Zhongshun in Da Ci'en Temple, right at the foot of the emperor, the most benevolent place in the capital, the gangster assassinated the clan! In charge of the public security in Shenjing, I have to eat and drink, but this morning, the censor said that the official Shangshu impeached Brother Heng, saying that Brother Heng was incompetent in governing affairs."

At this moment, Shi Ding has not heard any news from the Daming Palace because he came to visit the mansion near noon.

When Jia Mu heard this, her face was serious, and said: "How can this be blamed on Brother Heng, isn't he busy with Beijing camp recently?"

Shi Ding said: "Auntie, the officials don't tell us these things. When something happened, some people said that Brother Heng was slack in his duties, and he was no longer fit to lead the errand of Wucheng soldiers and horses. This time, I'm afraid that Brother Heng The errands of the soldiers and horses of Wucheng need to be handed over."

Speaking of this, I feel a little sad in my heart.

It is not wise to be young, hold three key positions, not know how to advance or retreat, and blindly greedy for power.

Jia Mu looked worried, and said: "It's very good. Brother Heng just made a great contribution not long ago? He was given a python suit just now? Tan girl, you often stay with Brother Yiheng to help sort out the official documents. What happened? What happened?"

Being called by Jiamu, and mentioning that the two of them were together, Tanchun said: "Old lady, I didn't go to brother Heng's place today."

Early in the morning, he was only focused on feeding the rabbits, so he didn't go to Dongfu to read the mansion newspaper.

Besides, if the impeachment was published today, the Dibao would not publish it immediately.

Shi Ding said: "Auntie, don't worry too much, although the job of the five cities can't be kept, brother Heng is now also the general in charge of the Beijing camp, and also leads the Jinyi Mansion, the holy family will not be reduced."

Jia Mu's face was gloomy, and she sighed: "How long has it been, how come this step?"

Seeing Jiamu's sad face and long sighs, Mrs. Wang's face did not show the slightest bit, but her heart became happier.

Shi Ding's eyes flashed, and he said, "Auntie, is it actually a good thing for Brother Heng?"

"Good thing?" Mother Jia looked at Shi Ding puzzled.

Mrs. Wang frowned, listening to the words "good thing", subconsciously felt agitated.

The errand is gone, how is this a good thing?

Tan Chunyingxiu frowned slightly, staring at Shi Ding.

Shi Ding smiled lightly, and said: "If my aunt cares about it, it will cause chaos. You said that Brother Heng is now in charge of the Beijing Camp, the Wucheng Bingma Division, and the Jinyi Mansion. He has so many important positions in his body. St. The family members are so rich, but this is actually a disaster rather than a blessing, and it is not the way to protect the courtiers."

Jia Mu became more and more confused by Shi Dingyue's words, and asked: "Brother Heng is reused in the palace, why is it not the way to protect the courtiers?"

Shi Dingdao: "Old lady, don't say that brother Heng is young, the tree is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it, but how can one person manage so many soldiers and horses in the capital? The first-class Shenwei generals didn't manage the soldiers and horses of the five cities, or even the Jinyi Mansion. A few days ago, it was the chaos in the Beijing camp, and it was an expedient measure for Brother Heng to bring the Tianzi Sword to quell the chaos. Ruo Panshi, Brother Heng is leading the soldiers inside and outside the capital, this...is not a good thing, now taking advantage of this impeachment, he resigned from the position of the military commander of the five cities, isn't it a good thing?"

Jia Mu finally understood now, and the anxious expression on her face gradually eased, and she murmured: "It's such a reason. It's a blessing in disguise."

In Rongqing Hall, not only Mother Jia understood the key points, but Tanchun was the first to understand the key points.

He holds multiple positions, all of which are key yamen, so he should be dispatched by resigning from the Wucheng Bingmasi.

But after thinking about it, I felt something was wrong. It's not decent to be impeached and run away like this, isn't it?

Doubt appeared in the bright and big eyes, and when he looked up, he saw Baochai's eyebrows slightly frowned, and there was also a thoughtful look in his apricot eyes.

Sister Feng frowned, and thought to herself, the man outside doesn't want to be in touch with her in running the family if he is an official, if all the power is handed over to one person, it is indeed easy to cause trouble.

Shi Ding smiled, and said: "Brother Heng is still young, he is in charge of the First Battalion of the Beijing Camp, and assisting Li Dashi in military affairs. He has a bright future in the future, so don't lose the big because of small things."

Jia Mu thought about it, and then asked: "Since Brother Heng will be dispatched by the five cities' soldiers and horses, why are you here?"

Shi Ding's tone was calm, and he talked eloquently: "Brother Heng, even if he avoids disaster and resigns, the soldiers and horses in the five cities can't live without people from our family, otherwise we will lose a cat and dog, and no one will help find it." Not to mention other things, it's not cheap. My nephew's idea is to let Haoer be a deputy commander, commander or something, and he can also have a support. If Brother Heng is about to leave, he will transfer Haoer to Wucheng Soldiers and horses can be regarded as saving a hand."

When Jia Mu heard this, her complexion changed, and when she finally came to her senses, she felt a little displeased.

Although he is his nephew, he just mentioned the matter of Brother Heng's resignation earlier, and now he is eagerly going to Wucheng to fight the Masai people, and he made a big detour, so it was because of this matter?

For a moment, the Rongqing hall fell into silence.

Mrs. Zheng said with a smile: "Old lady, these Wucheng soldiers and horses. We must have someone close to us. Brother Heng is now in the capital camp. It is time for him to show his ambitions, and there is no need to be fettered by these trivial matters. on."

Mother Jia didn't respond, as if she was thinking about something.

Tanchun couldn't help but said: "Old lady, people here still don't say that we are going to put relatives in Wucheng Bingmasi?"

Mrs. Zheng's smile faltered, and she looked at Tanchun who was on the sidelines.

Mrs. Wang glanced at Tanchun, her eyes were slightly cold.

Tanchun's face was pale, and he quickly lowered his head.

After all, Mrs. Wang single-handedly raised her, and she was still in awe.

At this moment, Mother Jia sighed heavily.

Several people were silent.

At this moment, a nun said: "Old lady, Master Heng is here."

Well, the Lord is here.

Mother Jia's worried expression remained undiminished, and she said, "Let Brother Heng come in."

While talking, Jia Heng and Yuanyang, who were dressed in python suits, came from the outside and entered the hall.

Facing the gazes of several gazes, a tall and handsome young man stood still, cupped his hands and said, "I've seen the old lady."

At this time, Shi Ding was already looking at the calm young man with good eyesight, his eyes fell on the python suit on him, and his heart felt a little hot.

If it is said that Jia Heng, who was only a part of the Guoyong camp of the governor, was not enough for Shi Ding to make friends with him, but Jia Heng, who has been promoted to the governor of Jinyi and presided over the rectification of the Beijing camp, is already qualified to make Shi Dingqian Come to make friends, don't say he is still pretending to be worried.

The family background of the third son Shi Hao, as well as his assignment, could not be more on the shoulders of Brother Heng.

Of course, he also intends to persuade this young man not to be too attached to power. It is not a long-term solution to hold the three positions of military commander of the five cities, capital commander, and Jinyi commander.

Taking advantage of this impeachment, it is reasonable to abandon the position of the military commander of Wucheng.

Shi Ding was also unambiguous, stood up, and said with a smile: "Ziyu, I have always heard people say that Ziyu is elegant and relaxed, and looks like a famous general. When I saw him today, he is indeed a general's son, not inferior to his father and grandfather."

Jia Heng turned his attention to Shi Ding, looked at the middle-aged military officer, and said calmly: "Shi Bo is too famous."

Perhaps because of Xiangyun, Jia Heng had some preconceived dislikes towards Shi Ding, but he quickly dispelled this emotion. As a qualified political animal, he should not let his emotions affect his judgment.

Jia Mu hurriedly asked: "Brother Heng, did you just go to the palace to visit the saint?"

Jia Heng nodded and said, "Old lady, Mian Sheng has just returned."

When Jia Mu heard the words, she sighed and said, "Just now, why did I hear that the officials in Beijing are impeaching you?"

Jia Heng looked calm and asked, "Why did the old lady say that?"

Shi Ding took over the conversation: "Brother Heng, I heard that you were impeached by the Beijing Central Prosecutor this morning because of the assassination of King Zhongshun yesterday."

Jia Heng looked at Shi Ding, with a hint of doubt in his heart.

After thinking about it, Shi Ding came to visit Jia Mu, so he might not have heard the news from the palace at the first time.

After all, Marquis Zhongjing was not dispatched, and in fact he was far away from the center of the court.

Shi Ding looked earnestly, and said in a consoling elder tone: "Brother Heng, you are still young, and you will have opportunities to make contributions in the future. Now you should concentrate on the Beijing camp. Now, taking advantage of the impeachment, you ask yourself to resign, so as to calm the hearts of the barbarians. It's not a bad thing either."

He was worried that the young people would not care about the seriousness, blindly greedy for power and power, and ruined their bright future, which would be a pity.

Facing concerned gazes, Jia Heng was silent for a moment, and said, "Whether Shi Shibo came here today before resigning?"

Shi Ding smiled lightly, and said: "No, your elder brother Shi Hao is not in Yangling County as a garrison, and it has been three years. This year, he should move to Beijing this year. I have a personal relationship with Li Dashi, see if you can find a job for your cousin in the capital, I think it is best to go to the Wucheng Military Division, if there are no shortages, it is also feasible to go to the Beijing camp."

Seeing the young man's face, Shi Ding felt a little apprehensive for no reason, and his tone that was taken for granted was subconsciously tactful.

Jia Heng looked at Jia Mu and asked calmly, "I wonder what the old lady means?"

Jia's mother said: "Now you are the head of the family, the head of the Jia family. I don't understand the outside world. You can make up your own mind."

Jia Heng said: "Old lady, if according to my opinion, military generals are transferred and transferred, and there are military selections by the Ministry of War, Qing officials and Siquan selections, even if there are relatives, it is not good to give and receive famous weapons privately."

As soon as these words came out, Shi Ding's complexion changed, and the smile on his face froze.

He guessed that there would be some twists and turns, so he mentioned this matter in front of the old lady, but he didn't want to be refuted by Jia Heng.

This Jia Heng... is really unreasonable.

Fortunately, he ignored his elder brother's objection and came to make friends with him.

Don't even understand the principle of one hero and three gangs?

Not to mention that Jia Shi Wang Xue, who was originally like-minded and shared weal and woe, was really young and vigorous, and only cared about himself.

Jia Mu was silent for a while, then sighed: "Brother Heng, what you said also has some truth. After you leave the post of military commander in Wucheng, it's not easy to put people in there again. It's easy to provoke criticism."

Mrs. Wang looked at the young man who "pretended to be calm", and sneered in her heart.

However, Jia Heng ignored Jia Mu's words and said: "Old lady, the Holy Majesty has sent some peach charms and door gods. The house doesn't need much. If you want them in the old lady's yard, I will send some later. "

"Huh?" Mother Jia asked curiously, "Why do you send these from the palace?"

Shi Ding's face changed slightly, and he had some guesses in his heart.

Jia Heng said: "Just now, I firmly resigned from the position of the military commander of the five cities to the Holy Majesty. The Holy Majesty refused and encouraged me to do things with my heart. Before I left, because of the Chinese New Year, I gave some door gods peach charms, which meant auspiciousness. But I thought it should be admonishing me to do things with my heart, like a door god to protect the peace of the capital, and the peace of the emperor."

Shi Ding: "..."

Jia Mu lost her voice and said, "This...the Holy Majesty really said so?"

Mrs. Wang's complexion changed suddenly, blue and red intertwined, and for a while, her heart felt dull.
