Honglou: This bastard is too persuasive.

Chapter 169 The child is a good child, but he shouldn’t block Baoyu’s way (2.5)

"I can."

At this moment, Jia Zhen told Jia Mu and everyone in the Jia family, what does it mean to be physically disabled but strong in spirit?
  At this moment, Jia Zhen told them his persistence as a clan leader.

"Ancestor, you have to believe me. I can do it. Even if I can't move my lower body now and am missing an arm, as the leader of the Jia family, I have the obligation to train the new nobles."

"I miss the heirs to the title who have been trained since childhood. Whether it is palace etiquette or aristocratic rules, they all need to be studied for a long time."

"Even if Brother Qin becomes a viscount, he has never learned these things after all."

"If no one teaches him, he will definitely be laughed at by other nobles."

"My Jia family cannot afford to lose this person."

"So don't worry, as long as I still have some ability to move, I will definitely teach him well."

This is a good opportunity.

Jia Zhen had not taken Jia Qi seriously before.

He thought of it as a person who could be manipulated at will, but he didn't expect that this kid would turn into an imperial viscount.

At this level, it would not be so easy for him to manipulate it at will.

Before he could freely give him advice.

After all, he can say these words in the name of the clan leader, and this kid will definitely listen to him.

However, now, everything has become different.

He is still the same Jia Zhen now.

We even have to add the word disabled in front of it.

But this kid is no longer an ordinary person.

He is now a viscount of the empire, and may be lower than himself in terms of status. After all, he is a descendant of the Duke's palace.

However, in terms of actual status, he is just a third-grade mighty general, and there is no comparison with him.

In this way, if I want to give him advice in the future, I need to occupy a righteous position. Otherwise, I can only design it carefully every time, and it may not be successful in the end.

Now that the old lady has handed the knife to her hand, if she doesn't catch it, she will regret it.

Jia Qi, aren’t you awesome? Wasn't he made a viscount?

But I can continue to trick you in the name of teaching you noble etiquette.

I failed to trick you to death before, and I will definitely not tolerate it this time.

Qin Keqing is mine.

In order to be able to hold it in my hands, I can only work hard for you to die.

And since you dare to touch my woman, you can't blame me.

So even though Jia Zhen looks very miserable now, her face is very serious.

He really wanted to teach Jia Qi the rules.

Jia Mu, I know that Jia Zhen was targeting Jia Qi before.

I thought he was already like this, but I was afraid he didn't have the energy anymore, so Jia Mu said what she just said.

I never expected that Brother Zhen would be so insistent.

she asked uncertainly.

"Brother Zhen, are you sure you really want to do this?"

"I am absolutely sure that I will ask my ancestors to fulfill my wish. For the future of my Jia family, I am bound to do so."

"Okay, okay, you are worthy of being the patriarch of my Jia family. He is responsible. Since you insist so much, then I will leave this matter to you. Brother Qin has suddenly become a noble. I am afraid he does not understand many things. So I’m going to have to work hard for you, Brother Zhen.”

"No hard work, no hard work, everything is for the Jia family."

The two of them settled the matter as soon as they sang together.

The reason why they did not consult Jia Qi was because they were afraid that he would refuse.

Knowing that everything had settled at this time, they turned their attention to Jia Qi.

Now, this matter has been decided in the name of your ancestor and the other in the name of the clan leader.

It depends on how you can quibble.

If you really have the ability to convince everyone to agree, what if I give up teaching you?
  Jia Zhen thought truthfully and looked at Jia Qi with a playful expression.

"Brother Qin, I will teach you the court etiquette and aristocratic rules next. You won't refuse, right?"

"Of course I won't refuse. Please give me some advice from Brother Zhen."

Even if there is no system prompt, he will agree.

After all, Jia Zhen's malice towards herself is very great.

Let him teach you, maybe he will give you some suggestions.

When the time comes, it’s you who will benefit.

This is without system prompts.

And just now the system prompt has been sent.

[Extracted a piece of advice full of malice, promised Jia Zhen to teach you the court etiquette and aristocratic rules, triggering a positive reversal, and you will automatically learn all the aristocratic rules and court etiquette. 】

With such a system prompt, how could he refuse?
  After all, he has become a noble of the empire.

If you don't understand some aristocratic rules and court etiquette, it really doesn't make sense.

And I learned it immediately after I agreed.

In this way, there is no fear that Jia Zhen is cheating on her.

It can be said that it is a sure profit without loss.

So he agreed very happily.

Seeing him agree, Jia Zhen and Jia Mu laughed unconsciously.

Even Mrs. Wang showed a smile at this moment.

Because of Jia Zhen's incident, at this moment, she has accepted the reality.

Since Jia Qi becoming a Viscount cannot be changed, then all we have to do is find a way to make this kid lose everything.

As for the glory of the Jia family, Mrs. Wang never thought about it.

What does the Jia family have to do with him? If everything in the Jia family belongs to Baoyu, then he will definitely work hard to keep it.

But now the Jia family does not belong to Baoyu.

So this kid must not be allowed to overshadow Baoyu.

Mrs. Wang, who is also full of malice towards Jia Qi, naturally knows Jia Zhen's malice towards Jia Qi.

If Jia Zhen takes action, he might be able to trick this kid.

Even if Jia Zhen couldn't do it, she would still have to go back and find a way.

But that boy is now a viscount. He needs to think carefully and wait for the time being to wait and see what Jia Zhen does and what the result will be.

This rare time, Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu both had the same idea.

Jia Qi has become intuitive, and there are some things they are not suitable to do.

Even if you really want to do it, you have to study it carefully.

Instead of giving random suggestions to that kid as soon as he was summoned and left as before.

And they all unanimously decided to let Jia Zhen take action first, and they would pay attention silently for a while before talking.

It's just that Mrs. Wang really doesn't want to see this kid again.

"Since Brother Zhen is fine, let's end this matter today."

"Everyone is tired after thinking about it, so we should go home."

As soon as Mrs. Wang finished speaking, someone showed a relaxed smile.

It's finally time to leave.

However, they turned their attention to Jia Mu. After all, Jia Mu's identity was there. If he didn't speak, they couldn't leave.

As a result, Jia Mu said.

"Everyone should be tired indeed, but I have one more thing to say. My Jia family has not had such a big happy event for a long time, so I thought that after Brother Qi goes to the palace to express his gratitude, I will keep it at home for three days. The running water mat."

"This way, people can know that our Jia family is once again glorious."

"Secondly, it is also an opportunity to deepen relationships with other families."

"Thirdly, since Brother Qin has been knighted, he will naturally have to deal with nobles. It would be good to take this opportunity to make more friends."

"Normally speaking, it is best to go to the palace to express gratitude on the day you receive the order, so I will ask Brother Qin to take his wife to express gratitude later."

"Tomorrow we will start setting up the flowing banquet, so we need everyone's help to send invitations to the nobles and dear friends we are familiar with."

"At the same time, we must also make it clear to the people living on Ningrong Street that someone in our Jia Mansion has been granted the title of Viscount, and that's why we have set up a flowing banquet so that they can come and eat and drink outside the house in the past three days."

The entire Jia family is decided by Jia Mu, so of course it is whatever Jia Mu says she says.

Although some people think this is too extravagant and wasteful.

It was them but they didn't mean to refuse.

It's not their money spent anyway.

That is to say, Mrs. Wang wanted to refuse, but was stopped by Jia Mu with a look.

As a result, no one stood up to object.

Even seeing this situation, Jia Zhen said cheerfully.

"Since our ancestors want to set up a flowing-water mat, then I, the clan leader, cannot do nothing. In order to celebrate Brother Qing's enthronement, I will pay half of the cost for the flowing-water mat."

"There's just one thing. I'm like this now. I really need to go back and rest for two days. I can only wait for two days to teach Brother Chen the rules."

"When Brother Qin comes to the palace to thank you, I need to explain to him now what I need to pay attention to."

Having said this, he took a few breaths weakly.

Next, he would pretend that he was exhausted and fainted.

Originally, he had been placed on a sedan because he had been amputated.

In addition, there were no accidents during this period, so everyone thought that his bad luck was gone.

Thinking of his accident, the originally good sedan suddenly fell to one side as he tilted his head. And all the sedans were made of solid wood with mortise and tenon technology. With this fall, they fell apart.

Jia Zhen also passed out smoothly due to the fall, leaving several wounds on her body.

Before he fell into coma, he had only one thought.

It's okay now, I don't have to pretend to be dizzy, I'm really dizzy this time.

I hope that without my guidance, this kid can make some mistakes.

But when the others looked at the mess on the ground, they were speechless and their expressions almost broke.

How could someone be so unlucky?

What kind of outrageous thing did the patriarch of their Jia family do?

Some people are even thinking about changing the clan leader. If the clan leader is so unlucky, will they be implicated?

Just when everyone was thinking wildly, Jia Mu finally came to her senses.

"What are you still looking at? Someone come and help Brother Zeng up quickly, let the imperial doctor take a good look at him, and then send him back for proper treatment."

But this time, after Jia Mu finished speaking, everyone in the Jia family changed their expressions.

Jia Rui reacted quickly, even though he was secretly looking at Wang Xifeng and Qin Keqing before.

At this moment, he stopped looking and said hurriedly.

"I still need to inform you that we will leave the arrangement of the flowing water mat tomorrow."

After saying that, he pulled Jia Zailu and left without hesitation.

Others' eyes lit up when they saw his actions.

"Yes, yes, ancestor, I also want to inform you about the flowing water mat. I'd better leave the clan leader's affairs to others."

"You are all from the east, and I am going to inform the people from the west."

"You can't just notify the people on the east and west sides, the people in the middle should also be notified. I'd better go there."

"It's not just Rongning Street. Our Jia family has such a big event, and we have to hold a running banquet for three days. Naturally, I have to notify more people."

"Don't just think about informing those people. Tong Ren, I'll inform all the nobles I'm familiar with. I happen to have two familiar ones, so I'll go and inform them."

"Oh, when you said that, I also remembered that we have an old relative with whom I have a very good relationship. I will inform him."

"As if there is no noble noble that I am familiar with, I will go too."

In an instant, most of the Jia family members ran away.

Others are still looking for reasons to leave one after another.

And none of Jia's servants dared to come forward.

Although they are servants, they don't want to lose their lives inexplicably.

At this moment, Jia Mu felt a little sad.

Is there no responsible person in his family?

He unconsciously looked at Baoyu. He really hoped that Baoyu was a responsible person. Even if he didn't take action, he could still arrange for his subordinates to take action.

Unfortunately, Baoyu immediately dodges when he sees Jia Mu's gaze.

Mother Jia looked at Jia Zheng again, hoping that Jia Zheng could stand up at this time.

But Jia Zheng said calmly.

"Mother wants me to inform the Wang family, right? Don't worry, I'll go later."

When Jia Mu choked, the second son used the Wang family to deal with him in order not to come forward.

But he did have a good reason.

In addition, although Jia Mu hoped that her son would be responsible, she did not want anything to happen to her son, so she did not continue to persuade him.

He was one of the remaining Jia family men present, but none of them dared to look up at her.

At this moment, Jia Qi suddenly spoke to a group of servants.

"Didn't you hear what the ancestors said?"

"Ancestor, I asked you to send the clan leader back, what are you still doing?"

"You're afraid that the clan leader's bad luck will be passed on to you, right?"

"You are afraid of me, but I am not afraid. The clan leader usually takes good care of me."

"The reason why I was able to marry a wife was because of the patriarch's help."

Just as he was speaking, Jia Zhen, who had just been knocked unconscious, had her bad luck for exactly an hour. Because her bad luck subsided, he opened his eyes in a daze.

When I was slightly awake, I heard Jia Qi's words.

There was actually a hint of relief in my heart.

Then I heard him continue.

"I owe all my achievements today to the clan leader."

"Without his help, I wouldn't have been able to marry such a wonderful wife."

"If I didn't marry such a good wife, how would I have the money to buy land?"

"It was because of my wife's dowry that I was able to purchase that high-yield grain."

"It is also because of the 6000 kilograms of grain produced per acre that I am able to become the viscount I am today."

"So even if all of you are afraid of being caught up in the clan leader's bad luck, I'm not afraid either."

"I know you are worried, so there is no need for you to come over and help me. I will carry the clan leader back first."

When he said this, he had already walked in front of Jia Zhen.

Jia Zhen, who was already thinking clearly, felt like she was struck by lightning after hearing her words.

Everything was caused by me.

Jia Qi became a Viscount all because of me.

it's me? He sent Qin Keqing to his bed in person and let him marry such a beautiful wife.

it's me? In order for the little beauty to live a better life, she gave him a lot of makeup, which made Jia Qi rich.

also me? Thanks to all this, this boy was able to successfully buy high-yield grain and present it to His Majesty.

Now he has become a viscount of the empire.

So all this turned out to be my fault.

I obviously wanted to trick him, so why did I let him become a viscount?

I am not willing to accept it.

He was furious for a moment, there was a roar in his head, and he fainted again.

No one else saw this scene at all.

Jia Qi looked at Jia Zhen, her face suddenly changed and she finally lost consciousness completely, but she smiled with an unwilling expression.

"If you want to plot against yourself, you should bear this retribution."

The reason why he came forward was to maintain his personality.

Apart from listening to advice, isn't my biggest personality trait of being emotional?
  If he didn't value feelings, what would he do if he would listen to advice so much?
  So, facing Jia Zhen, who was kind to him, he had to stand up.

And he just wanted to take this opportunity to tell everyone.

It was the patriarch's help that he was able to marry a beautiful wife.

I am able to have everything I have now, not only because of the advice given to me by the old lady Jia Mu, but also because of Jia Zhen's silent efforts.

He just wanted to let everyone know that everything he had now was due to these two people.

He is giving Jia Mu and Jia Zhen the opportunity to continue to give him suggestions.

Only in this way can they be their own good tools.

At the same time, he also told everyone in the Jia family sideways.

I am an emotional person and a person who listens to advice. If you have any ill intentions or thoughts towards me, you must not hide them.

I'm so emotional and I want to listen to advice. If you try to persuade me, won't I just listen?

So it was illogical for him to stand up and see that it was actually to pave the way for everyone in the Jia family to continue to be his tools.

The thought just flashed through his mind, and he stopped thinking about it.

Instead, under everyone's disbelieving gaze, he stepped forward and directly carried Jia Zhen on his back.

"Didn't you hear what I just said? Why don't you follow me quickly and not move, right? So I named Lin Zhixiao and the Lin Zhixiao family. You two, come over and be careful. Don't let the clan leader really come out. Something."

The two people who were named were deaf and mute. Although they were a little reluctant, they walked over without saying a word and followed Jia Qi.

Since Jia Qi was fine carrying Mr. Zhen on his back, they wouldn't be fine if they thought about it, right?
  In this way, they quickly left the courtyard. When they approached, everyone quickly backed away and made way for them.

And looking at their leaving figures, everyone had an idea in their minds.

Jia Qin feels that he is indeed a good person, he repays his kindness, has the courage to take responsibility, is not afraid of danger, and the most important thing is to listen to advice.

Maybe I can get some benefits from him.

Some people started to make calculations.

But Jia Mu looked at her leaving figure with a complicated expression.

I couldn't help but feel a little emotional in my heart.

"The child is indeed a good child. It is really rare to be able to stand up at such a time."

Although she didn't want to admit it, Jia Mu knew that even she was unwilling to step forward and help Jia Zhen.

Others in the Jia family found various reasons to leave, and no one was willing to come forward to help.

So, she had to admit it.

This kid Jia Qi is indeed a good person.

What a pity.

Jia Mu withdrew her gaze and looked at Baoyu unconsciously.

I sighed in my heart.

"It's a pity that you are not Baoyu. Baoyu was born with jade in it. That is a great blessing. The future of the Jia family depends on him, so even if you are a good boy, you can't block Baoyu's way."
