Chapter 35 The imperial decree in the palace, Feng Zhaowuhou,
Jia Jing walked in from the middle gate of Rongguo Mansion, looked at Lai Da on the side, and asked, "Why did the mansion remember to open the middle gate today?"
You should know that in high-gate families, the middle door is not open on weekdays, and when entering and exiting, they go to the side door next to it or even the corner door on one side. Unless it is a special seasonal festival, or if a distinguished guest comes to the door, the middle door will be opened to show etiquette.
Therefore, Jia Jing had this question when he saw the central gate of Rongguo Mansion wide open.
Lai Da respectfully led the way in front. When he heard Jia Jing's inquiry, he immediately replied: "Go back to the Third Master, a father-in-law from the palace came to announce the good news, saying that the Third Master had made contributions to suppressing the rebellion and was given the grace of the Supreme Emperor, and he was already ranked as the marquis. Everyone in the mansion was very happy. According to the ancestral system, the master immediately ordered people to go to Ning Mansion to invite Mr. Zhen, while ordering the old servant to open the middle door and welcome the Third Master to return to the mansion at the door!"
"If you don't say it, I almost forgot that there is such a rule!" Jia Jing suddenly realized, but then smiled, and didn't care, and stepped forward to the mansion.
Immediately afterwards, Jia Jing first returned to his yard, changed all his robe and armor, put on his light clothes, and then left the yard and headed towards Rongxi Hall.
The Rongxi Hall was already full of people at this time.
Jia Mu sat high and accompanied Jia She next to her. In the hall below, Jia Zheng and Jia Zhen were sitting on the left, Jia Lian, Jia Rong, Baoyu and Jia Huan were also displayed on the right. As for the other ladies and girls, they were all sitting in the wing room next to them.
Jia Jing was granted the title of Marquis of Wu. For the Jia family at this time, it was a huge matter. No one of the other things could compare with.
Therefore, after the little eunuch in the palace came to report the good news, Jia Mu Jia She immediately gathered everyone from Ning Rong's mansions and waited for Jia Jing to come back in Rongxi Hall.
As soon as Jia Jingfang entered the gate of Rongxi Hall, he saw Jia Mu and others all get up from the seats, especially his cheap man Jia She, who strode forward and asked loudly: "Brother Jing, a father-in-law from the palace came to report the good news before, mentioning that you were named a marquis. Is this true or false?"
Jia Jing looked at the Rongxi Hall, and his eyes were full of expectations, and he looked at him with admiration. He immediately said directly: "Since the palace has sent someone to report the good news, what else can there be true or false?"
After getting Jia Jing's confirmation, Jia She finally breathed a sigh of relief, "I heard the news of the palace, and the whole family in the mansion was like a dream. She felt like she was stepping on the clouds, and she was afraid that there would be something wrong with it, so she was waiting for you to come back and make sure it in person."
Jia Mu also sat back again, patted her heart and muttered: "Bless our ancestors, our family has finally made another promising one. It has been declining for so many years. From now on, our family has taken on the rise again!"
At this moment, everyone in the room sat down and wanted to hear what was going on.
So, surrounded by everyone, Jia Jing chose a few unimportant places to talk about the matter of meeting the two emperors in the palace, and heard it with relish.
As he was talking, a maid hurriedly walked in at the door and came to Jia Mu to report, saying that there was a prime minister's internal court inspector, eunuch Qiu Shi'an, who brought people to Rongguo Mansion at the door.
When Jia Jing heard that the person who came was Qiu Shi'an, a popular man in front of Emperor Hongde, he immediately knew it and hurriedly ordered the servant and maid to prepare a table for incense, and then opened the middle door to prepare for greeting.
But after receiving the order from Emperor Hongde, Qiu Shian, who had been simple in everything, went straight in without waiting for the Jia family to come to greet him.
After a while, a summon came from a distance outside Rongxi Hall:
"The imperial edict has arrived, Jia Jing will accept the edict!"
"Why is it so fast?" Jia Jing stood up and saw that everyone in the hall was still a little stunned for a moment, so he ordered: "The one who read the imperial edict in the palace has arrived! Why don't you guys come with me to greet me!"
As he said that, Jia Jing should walk out of the hall first, and everyone behind him hurriedly followed, and a group of people walked forward quickly and came out of Rongxi Hall.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Prime Minister Qiu Shi'an holding a bright yellow scroll in his hand, followed by several eunuchs holding a vermilion plate, strode towards me.
At the door of Rongxi Hall, Jia She and others who reacted quickly asked everyone to go to the steps at the door, and then they all sorted to the north and placed Jia Jing in the front. Jia Mu and Jia She and Jia Zheng stood by Jia Jing.
Then everyone hurriedly bowed down and waited for Qiu Shi'an to read the imperial edict.
Behind everyone, the maid and servant, the nurse, and the mother-in-law, were kneeling all over the ground.
Qiu Shi'an walked around everyone, came to the steps at the door, looked down at everyone in the Jia family in the yard, and then said, "Jia Jing received the order!"
"My minister Jia Jing received the order!"
Opening the bright yellow scroll on his hand, Qiu Shi'an cleared his throat and said:
"The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, and the command said:
I only govern the world with literature and suppress the rebellion with military force. The army commands the military and generals are the pillars of the court and the country's city. Only by being able to be both civil and military, can we achieve both civil and military service and work hard to repay the achievements without complimenting them with destiny.
Jia Jing, the great-grandson of Duke Jia Yuan of the Kingdom of Rong, was extremely wise and brave, and I was very happy. I also encountered rebels who disturbed me the peace of the Hejian and An De palaces. I also depended on your bravery and fearlessness to use your life to suppress the thieves before they could happen.
This is the first-class Zhaowu Marquis, and he is appointed as the General Zhaowu, leading the Zhenwei, Guoyong, and Danyong three camps, and pardoning the Zhaowu Marquis Mansion, and I admire this!"
"Marquis Zhaowu, please thank me!" Qiu Shian smiled and handed over the imperial edict in his hand.
"My memory, Jia Jing, received the order and thanked the emperor for his kindness. Long live our emperor!"
Jia Jing stood up to receive the imperial edict, and the maids next to him came forward one by one, took the vermilion plate held by the eunuch behind Qiu Shi'an, and took the official robe, ribbon and other items on it one by one.
"I have worked hard for the inside, so I'll have a tea inside and take a rest..."
"More kindness to the marquis," Qiu Shi'an shook his head, "but our family still has the emperor's order. In order to hurry, Your Majesty also ordered us to save all the trivialities of reading the imperial edict, so I dare not delay it."
As he said that, Qiu Shian took out a small note from his sleeve and smiled and said, "Marty Zhaowu, there are some food and clothing rewarded by His Majesty here. The list is here. Please check and accept it."
"My memory, Jia Jing, thanks Your Majesty for the reward!" Yaoyao saluted in the direction of Emperor Hongde of the palace, and Jia Jing took the list.
Immediately afterwards, Jia Jing took out a silver note from his sleeve and stuffed it into Qiu Shi'an's hand, "Thank you for your hard work, take it for tea!"
Just a moment later, Jia Jing had already been awarded the title of Marquis, and the news of the pardon of the mansion spread throughout Ningrong and the entire Jia Mansion was shocked.
Jia Jing and others, holding the imperial edict, took Jia Zhen to the Jia family's ancestral hall.
According to Jia She, it is necessary to first offer the imperial edict to the ancestors and show them that the specific banquets and ancestors’ worships will need to be formally organized later!
As for the female family members such as Jia Mu were still in Rongxi Hall, they excitedly celebrated each other.
Jia Mu smiled and said repeatedly: "Bless our ancestors! Our family has been in decline for so many years. Thanks to Brother Jing, we have started to make a new trend and now we have become a first-class family in Shenjing."
Jia Jing was granted the title of Marquis of Wu and even commanded the third battalion of troops in the capital. He was the real Wuhou. This marked the return of the Jia family to the top noble families in Shenjing.
