Honglou: This bastard is too persuasive.

Chapter 171 The emperor saw through Qin Keqing and Jia Jing panicked (2.5)

Jia Qi and Qin Keqing followed the young eunuch who came to lead them along the way to transfer properties, and it took them a long time to finally find the imperial study room.

After the announcement, the two entered.

Kneel down and salute, the mountain shouts long live.

"Get up."

Following His Majesty the Emperor's words, the two people stood up quickly.

But when they stood up, His Majesty the Emperor suddenly froze when he saw Qin Keqing's appearance.

It's just that Jiuyan and Qin Keqing didn't look at His Majesty the Emperor's expression, otherwise they would have discovered this scene.

Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor quickly regained his composure. He just looked at Qin Keqing deeply and said with a smile.

"Since Aiqing is here, I would like to remind you that planting, cultivating and related research on sweet potatoes must be carried out immediately."

"Since only you know the relevant things, then you should do your best."

"When I delivered the decree before, I forgot to mention it. It's not too late to say it now."

"I give you three years. After three years, I hope that sweet potatoes will not only be promoted across the country, but also all related matters will be researched. How to grow more yields? How can I plant them reasonably? What should I pay attention to? These all need to be You will give me a report in three years."

"In order not to affect the cultivation and promotion of sweet potatoes, I allow you and your wife not to come to the palace to give advice within three years, even for ancestor worship and palace banquets."

"You have to remember the sweet potato thing, above all else."

"I will give you an instruction later. I will make it clear that from now on, except for sweet potato matters, you do not need to enter the palace, and no one else in the palace is allowed to call you and your wife into the palace."

"The first priority in everything is to study sweet potatoes. You are responsible for the research, and your wife needs to do the logistics for you. I hope that you and your husband will work together to study everything about sweet potatoes faster, so that the people of our Great Zhou Empire can start studying sweet potatoes as soon as possible." If you have enough food and clothing every day, there won’t be a single hungry person left.”

Jia Qi really didn't expect that His Majesty the Emperor would take this matter so seriously.

He even gave himself a special decree for this purpose.

After traveling to this world, he actually never knew what to do.

Although the future defeat of the Jia family may not involve him.

But no one knows whether this world of Red Mansions is the world of film and television dramas or the world of books, or the world of the original novel or the changed world.

Even if the original plot is the best outcome.

Most of the Jia family were not implicated.

But with his arrival, everything changed. At the moment when the Jia family fell, it was possible that the whole family would be implicated, and it was possible for Liu Fang to behead the capital.

That's why he eagerly wanted to build a golden body for himself, so that no matter what the future of the Jia family was like, he could continue to be free and at ease.

And now, it has been successful.

With the appearance of sweet potatoes with a yield of 6000 kilograms per mu, he has completed shaping his golden body.

From now on, even if something happens to the Jia family, he will not be greatly affected.

After all, his contribution is too great.

Originally, he was still a little confused about the future.

Having become an Imperial Viscount, with his own Viscount Palace, and a large number of properties behind his back, it can be said that his future will be free and easy.

Originally, she only wanted to use her tool people more in the future, so that she could complete more persuasion tasks and gain more benefits and power.

But today, after seeing the importance His Majesty the Emperor attached to sweet potatoes, he suddenly figured it out.

For the Great Zhou Empire, being able to feed the common people was a luxury.

The emergence of sweet potatoes can turn this extravagant wish into reality.

The existence of sweet potatoes can allow the Zhou Empire to realize the world without hunger that China has dreamed of for thousands of years.

If this is the case, then he must go all out.

Although I have never grown sweet potatoes in my previous life, I have also seen movies, TV series, novels, short videos, etc., and have learned a lot about related content.

As long as you give yourself a certain amount of time, you will definitely be able to study it all.

Compared with others, I will avoid many detours and have more time to promote sweet potatoes in advance.

Since His Majesty the Emperor takes it so seriously, how could he take it as a joke?
  So he also looked serious. Said respectfully.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely go all out to study matters related to sweet potatoes. I will never enter the palace until I have thoroughly studied sweet potatoes and promoted them nationwide."

"Okay, okay, I know that Aiqing is a person who does great things. Now that the thanksgiving is over, you should go back first. Later I will ask someone to find you with the imperial edict, and then take you to the imperial village outside the city. I’ll leave it all to you to take charge of what needs to be done?”

"I have only one request: to research everything about sweet potatoes as quickly as possible."

Jia Qing and Qin Keqing both bowed and saluted at the same time.

Guaranteed to complete the task.

Afterwards, the two said goodbye and left the palace.

Not long after they walked out of the imperial study, the current emperor, Emperor Chongwen, clapped his hands, and then appeared in the imperial study as soon as the shadow came, kneeling before Emperor Chongwen.

"Greetings to Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

Emperor Chongwen looked at him with complicated eyes and said.

"You should have seen the two people who just came. Jia Qi's newlywed wife, my canonized Madam Gaoming, do you think he looks familiar to you?"

The man continued to kneel on the ground, dressed in black but speaking very plainly.

"Your Majesty, as you said, she is 70% similar to the late emperor, and the other 20% should be the look of the person outside the former emperor's palace."

"Weichen had investigated back then and found out that the late emperor and Qi did have a child, but we didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl."

"I've been looking for him all these years, but I didn't know he was right under my nose."

"But since this child is not a boy, Your Majesty should be relieved."

"Of course, if His Majesty feels that she should not exist, he will personally take action to make her disappear from this world."

His Majesty the Emperor looked at him with complicated eyes.

Although this secret guard was indeed loyal to him, his words were a bit too direct.

And you have said it yourself, just being a woman has no impact on your throne, so why do you need to kill them all?

Besides, he has been in power for more than ten years, is it possible that he is still afraid of a little girl?
  "No need. As you said, since he is a woman, there is no threat to me. Once I know her identity, I don't have to worry about others showing up later."

"But now that people have discovered it, they need to know who rescued her in the first place."

"She is not a threat to me, but the person who rescued her is a threat to me."

"So the most important thing for you next is to find out who did it."

The man in black bowed respectfully.

"I know this, and I will not disappoint His Majesty."

Then, the figure of the man in black disappeared quickly.

His Majesty the Emperor knocked on the table and muttered to himself.

"There shouldn't be many people who could do this back then, but I don't know who it is? The Jia family? King Beijing? Or other families of the four princes and eight princes? Or is it the emperor?"

His eyes unconsciously looked into the palace.

That's where the Emperor is.

at the same time.

Outside Shenjing City, inside Zhenwu Temple.

Zhou Rui finally met Jia Jing, who was practicing Taoism.

However, after he finished telling all the recent events, he was expecting Jia Jing to enter the palace to find the Supreme Emperor.

As a result, Jia Jing's first reaction was to ask in disbelief.

"Whose girl do you think that boy Jia Qi married?"

Although Zhou Rui was a little confused, he still said.

"The daughter of Qin Ye's family, the repairman, is named Qin Keqing."

"Qin Keqing? Qin Keqing, Qin Keqing!"

Jia Jing's tone changed from confusion at the beginning, to uncertainty in the middle, to shock at the end.

He was sitting calmly on the futon, but suddenly stood up at this moment.

"You mean they went into the palace to thank you?"

"Yes!" Zhou Rui became even more confused.

Shouldn't the key to this matter be to go to the palace to find the Supreme Emperor and ask Jia Qi to join the prayer team?

My wife said, this is the most important thing.

But why was this respectful gentleman’s reaction completely unexpected?

Jia Jing didn't pay any attention to how he wanted to walk a few steps alone in the room before speaking.

"How long have they been gone?"

"Ah, they went before I set off. They should have left the palace by now, right?"

"You came out in a carriage, right?"

Zhou Rui was even more confused. Why did he talk about the carriage again? But he still nodded.

"Okay, you can find a way to go back by yourself. Let me use the carriage. I want to go back to Ningguo Mansion."

After saying that, he didn't care about Jia Rui and strode out directly.

When he came outside, he saw a parked carriage with a driver on it. The driver quickly saluted when he saw him. "Greetings to Mr. Jing."

"Did you come with Zhou Rui?"

"Yes, sir."

"That's enough. Hurry up and drive me back to Ningguo Mansion."

Jia Jing got on the carriage without hesitation and asked the driver to drive away.

Naturally, the coachman did not dare to disobey, so he drove the carriage directly away.

By the time Zhou Rui arrived, the carriage had disappeared.

He sighed sadly.

"What is all this? How can I explain this when I go back?"

However, how to explain it has nothing to do with him now. He still has to find a way to go back.

Just when he finally arrived at a cart delivering food, he got on the cart.

Jia Jing returned to Ningguo Mansion.

And Jia Qi also took Qin Keqing back home.

If this homecoming is led by a eunuch.

In addition to leading them to the Viscount's Mansion, the young eunuch also brought with him the imperial edict he had just agreed upon.

After handing over the imperial edict to Jia Qi and taking them to understand the situation in the Viscount Mansion, the young eunuch said.

"Your Majesty said that if you are moving today, you won't be taking the adults to the Imperial Manor for now. The servants will come on time tomorrow morning so that the adults can be ready by then."

"Thank you for your hard work. I will wait for the supervisor on time tomorrow."

Wait until the eunuch leaves.

Jia Qi began to arrange for people to move.

Now that we have our own Viscount Mansion, we can give up the original small courtyard.

However, he is not planning to sell it, and it would be good for his subordinates to live in it.

However, he is moving here.

Then I saw Laiji coming over.

Because of what happened before, Laiji's foot was injured, but not seriously.

Even so, he walked with a limp.

Fortunately, he was also the chief steward of Ning Guo Mansion. He came in a carriage, but he walked in when he entered the Viscount Mansion.

After seeing Jia Qi, he bowed respectfully and then said.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Jing has returned home. He said that you have finished your work here and asked you to come over."

Jia Qi didn't think much about it.

Now that Jia Jing is back, it doesn't matter if he goes to see him.

So he nodded in agreement and continued to move.

After receiving an accurate reply, Laiji stopped staying and turned around to leave.

It was said that he was unlucky because he had been injured before, so after bandaging, he was going to enjoy the breeze and bask in the sun in the yard.

But he didn't expect that before he could lie down, he met Mr. Jing coming back.

As soon as the elder came back, he asked himself to come find Jia Qi.

He didn't dare not listen, so he could only endure the pain.

Now that everything is done, he naturally wants to leave quickly.

But she didn't know that Jia Jing didn't go anywhere after he returned. Instead, he sat in the living room and waited.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a man in black came to him and told him everything that had happened during this period.

The more Jia Jing listened, the angrier he became.

After hearing the end, he simply slapped the table and said.

"You bastard, luckily that kid had an accident when he got married, otherwise he would have been in big trouble."

"Go and fetch him. I'm going to take care of him."

The man in black was obviously stunned for a moment, and finally said respectfully.

"I'm afraid it won't be possible anymore. Brother Zhen is not only paralyzed in his lower limbs, but also has an arm amputated. After treatment, he has just woken up. I'm afraid he will fall into coma again if we call someone here."

Jia Jing came back to his senses and then remembered that his son was basically useless now.

However, although he had a broken arm, it was possible for his lower limbs to recover.

In order to prevent it from misbehaving again after it recovers, I must beat him again.

Besides, that boy Jia Qi has returned from the palace.

Since he took Qin Keqing to see His Majesty, there is a high probability that His Majesty also discovered Qin Keqing's identity.

In any case, Qin Keqing can be regarded as the daughter of the late emperor.

If His Majesty the Emperor does not take action now, most people will not take action.

At most, the surveillance is stricter, and there should be no more life-threatening danger.

But as the person who saved the late emperor's daughter, I am afraid that things will not be easy for him.

Perhaps His Majesty the Emperor has already started investigating.

He looked at the man in black in front of him and said.

"I'll go to Brother Zhen's place myself, but you must keep a close eye on Qin Keqing's affairs and tell all those involved in this matter to shut up and either stay away from the capital or silence them directly."

"I don't want His Majesty to know what I did back then. Otherwise, my Jia family will be doomed."

The man in black bowed respectfully and then said.

"Don't worry, Uncle Jing, I have arranged everything back then, and no one will find out about you."

"But now the princess has been discovered by His Majesty. For the safety of the princess, our military guards will follow the instructions of the late emperor. Except for a team of people led by me who will stay to protect you, the rest will be responsible for the safety of the princess."

"From this moment on, the few of us will be separated from Wuwei and will no longer have access to everything in Wuwei."

"So from now on, we won't be able to do these things of detecting intelligence. Please forgive me."

Jia Jing sighed.

"I knew this day would come a long time ago, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. Thank you very much, Chief, for your care over the years."

"Now that the princess has married into my Jia family, I will try my best to help her stay away from the political whirlpool. Within my ability, I will definitely keep the princess safe throughout her life."

The man in black shook his head and said.

"The late emperor said back then that no one is allowed to interfere in the princess's affairs. The princess's future life can only be decided by herself, so you don't have to interfere randomly."

Jia Jing sighed, but finally nodded and stood up.

"You are right. I won't interfere too much. I have arranged for someone to call him, but it will take some time for them to come over. I will go and see Brother Zhen first. I still need to give him a good beating. ah."

With that said, he walked out of the living room and headed towards the backyard.

Youshi also heard about Jia Jing's return and happened to meet him on the way.

She saluted respectfully, but was interrupted by Jia Jing.

He took him to Jia Zhen's room.

He will go back to Zhenwu Temple after today.

Therefore, all future troubles must be resolved.

Now Qin Keqing, not only His Majesty, there will be people watching over there, but also the military guards have returned. Under their eyes, if Jia Zhen still dares to miss the princess, then she is looking for death.

No matter what, this was his son too, and Jia Jing still couldn't do it watching him die.

When he entered the room and saw Jia Zhen like this, he couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken.

But when Jia Zhen saw Jia Jing, she said in horror.

"Master, why are you back? Did you also hear that I am not good? You are going to replace me. I will be fine. Master, believe me, I will be fine. Don't replace me. , if you replace me, I will really have no way to survive."

At this point, he gritted his teeth and said with a look of resentment.

"It's all Jia Qin's fault. It's Jia Qin who caused me harm. Master, now that you are back, you must avenge me."

Jia Jing originally looked at his panicked look and felt a little soft-hearted, but when he heard what he said next, he suddenly became furious.

How did you become like this? Do you think I don't know?

You wanted to trick others and harm others, but in the end you had an accident and blamed it all on Jia Qi.

Do you know who that boy is marrying now? You actually want to target him and take advantage of others. I think you still want to stay evil.

Are you really desperate?

If I don't deal with you properly, I'm afraid you may not bring catastrophic disaster to our Ningguo Mansion one day.

"Okay, okay, you are such a good son of mine."
