Simultaneous travel: I am proving the great way in the heavens.

Chapter 500: The true ruler of the world! Your Majesty is destined by heaven!
Burning incense and kneeling on the ground, these civil and military nobles of the previous dynasty did not have to wait long before they saw the Luofu procession marching across the city gate and into the capital.

Accompanied by the sound of neat horse hooves and footsteps.

These civil and military nobles of the previous dynasty knelt on the ground one by one and shouted out words of greeting that symbolized their submission. On both sides of the road, there were rows of yellow papers with words inscribed on them such as "Long live the King of Zhao!"

Luofu sat upright, riding the emperor's chariot, along the imperial road, all the way to the imperial city.

There is no doubt that whether it is Luofu himself, the civil and military officials of the Luotian Army, or the civil and military nobles of the previous dynasty who knelt on the ground to express their submission to Luofu, they all knew that although Luofu has not yet officially ascended the throne to become emperor, in fact he is already the true master of the world.

When the imperial carriage passed by the crowd at the Jia Mansion, Luo Fu glanced at them thoughtfully.

However, the chief eunuch who was always accompanying the emperor under the imperial carriage smiled meaningfully.

As the first distinguished eunuch of the new dynasty, it is not an exaggeration to say that once Luofu ascends the throne, he, who once lived in poverty in Jiangnan and whose family had no place to stand and had to sell himself to the Jinling Palace to be a eunuch, will become the number one person in the inner palace overnight.

You have to know that in any dynasty, the trusted eunuchs around the emperor were a position that countless people would fight for.

Although history books often belittle eunuchs, the emperor's trusted eunuchs would be respectfully addressed as "internal ministers" by civil and military officials in the outer court.

The system of the previous dynasty was similar to that of the Ming Dynasty. Although there was no eunuch dictatorship, the eunuchs in the inner palace also had a considerable degree of power.

At this moment, Luo Fu's seemingly light gesture made the eunuch chief make a decision in his heart instantly.

When he was in Jinling, he communicated frequently with the castrated Jia Lian, and he was well aware of the grudges between Luofu, the founder of the new dynasty, and the Jia family.

As he had been accompanying Luofu since Luofu entered the Jinling Palace, he knew very well that Luofu seemed to have other thoughts about the women in the Jia family.

Even though he was sold to the palace and castrated to become a eunuch at a young age, he understood Luofu's desire for revenge against the Jia family.

The Luo Tian army now completely controls the capital city. The Beiqing Capital Camp had been completely wiped out in the previous battle of Yangzhou, and the hastily assembled city defense army was nothing but a mob.

As early as when Luo Tianjun entered the city, he was taken prisoner and was under special guard.

Many of the reckless people in the capital were killed out of fear when Luo Tianjun was trying to maintain order.

In this situation, not even one person appeared to challenge Luo Fu.

It seemed as if the entire capital city was welcoming Luofu's arrival, and the demise of Beiqing was destiny.

Of course, not everyone has no hatred towards Luofu.

However, even if they wanted to be loyal to Beiqing, few would actually stand up at this time.

If he stood up on the road from Luofu to the imperial city and made some impassioned speeches, he would indeed be able to leave his name in history. However, both the Luotian army and the civil and military officials of the previous dynasty who were thinking of being loyal to the new dynasty were all on guard against this.

It doesn't matter if I die as a conservative and die-hard fan of the previous dynasty, but I can't drag them down with me.

Who knows if such a thing really appeared, and whether it would affect the King of Zhao, Luofu, and his feelings towards the civil and military officials of the previous dynasty.

During such a period of change of dynasties, the slightest problem could be magnified infinitely.

When Luofu's carriage successfully entered the imperial city.

On the streets, people gradually removed the incense tables and returned home.

And in the Rongxi Hall of the Rongguo Mansion.

Lady Jia, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing and the others were all anxiously waiting for an unknown amount of time.

When I saw the people from the Jia Mansion finally coming back.

Grandmother Jia even rushed out of Rong Xi Hall and, with the help of her head maid Yuanyang, took the initiative to meet Jia Jing, Jia She and others.

"How is it? Did His Royal Highness Prince Zhao enter the city smoothly?" Grandmother Jia asked impatiently.

Jia She nodded with a gloomy expression.

Jia Jing, however, heaved a long sigh and said, "Your Highness, Prince Zhao, is worthy of being the place where the new dynasty was founded. Your entry into the city is highly anticipated."

"That's good, Amitabha, that's good." Grandmother Jia smiled happily, "So, my Yu'er, Yuan'er, the second girl and the third girl, will they be able to return to the capital soon?"

"Ancestor." Although he was also one of the eight families of the Jia family in the capital who knelt on the ground and set up an incense table to welcome Luofu, at this moment, Jia Baoyu obviously did not have a clear understanding of the change of dynasties.

When Jia Baoyu heard Lady Jia mention Lin Daiyu, he immediately showed an unhappy look on his face and said, "The King of Zhao is just a tyrannical person. Sister Lin is so pure and innocent. You let Sister Lin..."

Before Jia Baoyu could finish his words, he heard Jia Zheng's loud shout.

"Shut up, you bastard."

Jia Zheng rushed to Jia Baoyu at an unprecedented speed, taking two steps at a time, and slapped him in the face with two big slaps.

The attack was so brutal that even Jia Zheng's own hands went numb.

As for Jia Baoyu, both sides of his face became swollen and blue at a speed visible to the naked eye, and blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth. He was really frightened by Jia Zheng.

Grandmother Jia frowned, feeling sorry for him, but ultimately did not try to persuade him.

The only difference is that unlike in the past, now Lin Daiyu is the queen of Luofu.

Once Luofu ascends the throne, Lin Daiyu will be the queen, and the queen of Luofu, the founder, and the mother of the country.

Jia Baoyu's nonsense affects not only himself, but even the entire Jia family. They may suffer a devastating disaster because of his outspokenness. What's more, Jia's grandmother knows very well that the life and death of the Jia family now depends on Lin Daiyu and other female members of the family.

If Jia Baoyu's outspokenness affected their impression of Luofu, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, even though Lady Jia was planning to let the matter go like this, Jia Jing would definitely not agree.

The incident with Jia Qiang before had already caused him to feel incomparable despair in his heart. Now there was another earth-shattering bomb like Jia Baoyu in Rongguo Mansion. Once it exploded, the death of all nine generations of the Jia family would be the least of their worries.

"Aunt." Jia Jing's face was as dark as ink as he said, "Baoyu must not spoil him anymore. Now that the King of Zhao has unified the world, he has been on the throne for only ten days. He is so outspoken. Does he dislike my Jia family and want to be punished by the King of Zhao?"

Although Grandmother Jia knew that Jia Jing was right.

But her love for Jia Baoyu all along made it impossible for her to be cruel.

When she saw that there were slap marks on both sides of his face, but Jia Baoyu looked at her with a wronged look, in the end, her doting on Jia Baoyu prevailed.

Grandmother Jia sighed and said, "Baoyu is still young after all, and he is still in our home. It is unlikely that it will be spread out. Even if... even if these words fall into the ears of someone with ulterior motives, they are just the words of a child."

"Aunt, this concerns the life and death of the Ning and Rong mansions, as well as the eight branches of the Jia family in the capital. What do you mean by children speaking without restraint?" Jia Jing will not indulge Grandmother Jia this time.

And in Rongguo Mansion, Jia Mu's practice of using filial piety to control Jia She and Jia Zheng at every turn was completely useless in front of Jia Jing.

Although Lady Jia is indeed Jia Jing's elder and can be considered his aunt.

But unfortunately, Jia Jing and Ningguo Mansion are the main branches of the Jia clan. Even the position of clan leader is passed down from generation to generation in Ningguo Mansion.

After Jia Jing avoided disaster and became a Taoist, he resigned from his official position and title, and even gave up his position as the head of the Jia family to Jia Zhen.

From the perspective of the clan, the Ningguo Mansion does not need to care about Lady Jia at all.

If Lady Jia really didn't know what was good for her, Jia Jing would even dare to turn against her.

The old lady who had been the one with the final say in Rongguo Mansion for such a long time was now being scolded so mercilessly by her nephew Jia Jing.

Even Lady Jia couldn't help but look grim.

But whether it was Jia She and Jia Zheng, or the other members of the eight branches of the Jia family from the capital who went to welcome Luofu, they all acted as if they were standing on Jia Jing's side.

In fact, Jia Jing was really concerned about the lives of hundreds of people in the Jia family.

The Jia family members didn't care at all about what Lin Daiyu was like in the Jia Mansion before. What they cared about was that Lin Daiyu had now become the future empress of the founding emperor of the new dynasty, and the second son of the second wife, who was known for his mischievousness, could be so outspoken.

Isn't this actively bringing disaster to the entire Jia family?

Once these words reach the ears of Zhao Wang Luofu, the entire Jia family will probably be implicated.

They might not be implicated in the entire clan, but the fate of the three Yi clans would include all of them.

The Jia family is a very large family, but as a whole it is divided into eight branches in the capital and twelve branches in Nanjing.

Before, when Jia Qiang was in Jinling, the reason why he was able to communicate continuously with the Rongguo Mansion in the capital was mainly because he relied on the power of the Twelve Houses of Jinling.

The world was in turmoil during the period of reform and innovation and the change of dynasties. If it were not for the cooperation between the Twelve Houses of Jinling and the Eight Houses of Beijing, even the transmission of information would have been difficult.

The three Yi clans may not be able to include all the twelve families in Jinling, but who knows how many people in the capital will be dragged into this.

Perhaps sensing the rare unity of the Jia family members present, Grandmother Jia was stunned for a moment before she said feebly, "Forget it, forget it. Now that the dynasty has changed, no one cares about what an old woman like me says. Since you don't like my Baoyu so much, I might as well go back to my hometown in Jinling with Baoyu."

In the past, once Grandmother Jia had used her trump card to take back Jinling.

Whether it was Jia She or Jia Zheng, they could only kneel on the ground and beg her to change her mind.

But at this moment, when Lady Jia once again mentioned that she wanted to return to Jinling, everyone except Jia Zheng knelt on the ground subconsciously, perhaps out of habit.

Whether it was Jia She, Jia Jing, or the other eight branches of the Jia family in the capital, they all had an indifferent attitude.

Just as Grandmother Jia herself said, the dynasty has changed now.

Jia Mu, the former wife of a superior duke in Rongguo Mansion, had long lost the status and halo bestowed upon her by the previous dynasty.

And now, it is a matter of life and death for the Jia family.

If the people of Rongguo Mansion still use the same tricks as before, I am afraid that everyone in the capital will have to separate from Rongguo Mansion.

When the new dynasty was established and the dynasty changed, they might not be able to gain much advantage from the Rongguo Mansion of the previous dynasty, but once they were held accountable by the new dynasty, they would be implicated.

The people from the Eight Families in the capital might not be good at other things, but when it comes to matters of life and death, they still know how to avoid danger and seek good fortune.

Seeing that her methods, which had always been effective in the past, could now only be used to control Jia Zheng, Grandmother Jia finally had a real understanding.

With the change of dynasties, everything is really different from before.

Now Grandmother Jia didn't dare to act like a demon anymore. She said in a bleak tone, "You don't like us orphans and widows. Zheng'er is a filial son, but you don't want an old woman like me to go back to Jinling during this chaotic time. Then let me and my Baoyu live in this backyard. Now you should be relieved, right?"

Although Jia Jing wanted to lock up Jia Baoyu, he wanted to prevent his outspoken mouth from bringing disaster to the entire Jia family.

But he couldn't just force his aunt, Lady Jia, to be locked up in the Buddhist temple as well.

After glaring at Jia Baoyu indignantly, Jia Jing said, "Aunt, things are different now. Our Jia family is no longer the same as when there were two sons in one family. Baoyu's outspokenness will only bring disaster to our entire Jia family. Even if he is trapped in the backyard, I hope you can keep a close eye on him."

At this moment, including Lady Jia, everyone witnessed Luofu, the King of Zhao, stepping into the capital, and felt the tremendous changes that the change of dynasty brought to them, the nobles of the previous dynasty.

But only Jia Baoyu showed a look of grievance, covering his swollen face with his hands, looking like he wanted to cry but had no tears.

Jia Jing is the one who truly understands the current predicament of the Jia family.

After temporarily dealing with Jia Baoyu's problem, he changed the subject and asked, "Aunt, is the maid from the Hua family still staying in the mansion?"

The so-called maid of the Hua family is undoubtedly Xiren in Jia Baoyu's room.

Among the Jia family servants who had once oppressed Luofu, Xiren's brother Hua Zifang, including Hua Zifang's wife, and all members of the Hua family were all killed by Luofu when Luofu left.

However, Hua Xiren had not been liquidated by Luofu before because she worked as a maid in the Jia family.

Of course, Hua Xiren was not the one who bullied Luofu before.

But the main reason why Hua Zifang was able to connect with the second uncle in Luofu was because of Hua Xiren, the head maid in Jia Baoyu's room who was highly valued in Rongguo Mansion.

It seemed as if Grandmother Jia had just remembered the existence of Hua Xiren. She waved her hands helplessly and said, "Forget it, go and deal with that maid from the Hua family!"

"That's all right, old ancestor, Xiren..." Jia Baoyu showed rare enthusiasm.

But before he could finish his words, Jia Zheng shouted angrily, and frightened Jia Baoyu into a quail again.
