The Overlord of the Red Mansion

Chapter 308 Damn it
Jia Rong, who was obsessed with women, did not think about serious matters until he was free from them and had dinner at night.

People in their thirties should really exercise more restraint.

Jia Rong quickly solved the problem of eating and talked about other things after finishing his meal.

After finishing his meal, Jia Rong went to a special teeth-cleaning table and sat there while a special maid helped him brush his teeth.

There is no electric toothbrush, but there is a jade maid.

Even a poor family like the Jia family has a special maid to blow the soup when they have a meal, not to mention the Holy Emperor who now has concentrated all the power.

In the palace, you can be a useless person who only knows how to enjoy yourself.

The risk of changing dynasties is much lower than the bankruptcy of ordinary wealthy families.

As the most powerful emperor, it is normal for his family to enjoy some things.

Jia Rong was just not used to waiting, and he didn't like being surrounded by too many women, just like wearing too many clothes would make him feel annoyed.

Nowadays, there is more money than you can spend at home, and there is no need to worry about rules and regulations. You can spend it however you want.

Toothbrushes would not be needed before they were invented. The maid next to Jia Rong is using her beautiful index finger to help Jia Rong clean his teeth. In order to prevent saliva from flowing down, she naturally has to close her mouth.

A single-sided brush to enhance friction was attached to one end of the maid's finger, which was soaked in non-toxic and harmless spices. When she pulled out her finger, she would dip some toothpaste in the plate on the table next to her, and then continue to brush her teeth according to Jia Rong's preferences.

After doing it many times, you will naturally know how to clean all your teeth gently and carefully.

Jia Rong’s personal maid is named Shuyu. It doesn’t matter what she was called before, she is called this now and will be called this from now on.

Shuyu is a full-time dentist who works as a wet nurse. In addition to helping brush teeth, she is also responsible for Jia Rong's oral health management.

Jia Rong liked to hug the jade maid while brushing his teeth and receive oral care quietly.

Because he felt so comfortable, after wiping his mouth and rinsing it, Jia Rong forgot what he wanted to say.

For Jia Rong, wanting to do something is far more important than doing something.

If I do it, it will always be finished in two or three steps because of my strong execution and action capabilities.

This results in a feeling of emptiness and discomfort after completing a task.

Even if you are happy, your happiness won't last long.

But if you want to do something, if you have something you want to do, your good mood will last for a very long time.

There are five maids and palace servants in charge of Jia Rong's sleeping and daily life, and Ping'er happens to be on duty today.

"Your Majesty, who will sleep with you tonight?"

Jia Rong is in good spirits, "starting from welcoming spring and visiting spring."

"Yes!" Ping'er agreed with a smile.

There are many things that Ping'er doesn't need to do specifically, his subordinates will naturally arrange them.

Now Ping'er is still a younger sister even to Wang Xifeng, not a maid.

It was impossible for the Wang family to treat Ping'er as a maid anymore.

Although Ping'er, who comes from a prominent family, looks elegant and dignified now, she is actually over 30 years old.

Now she can wear more luxurious clothes than Wang Xifeng before, and can also live a good life that her previous master could not enjoy.

Although he only has one daughter, she knows better than anyone else who to rely on.

There is no future if you rely on your son. The only man a woman in the Holy Palace should rely on is her husband!
Jia Rong was not in a hurry to go to bed, so he watched the performance first.

A drama troupe composed of princesses, daughters of noble families and hereditary nobles from all over the country is putting on shows, some about love and some about history. Most of them are adaptations of stories and live performances.

Clap clap clap!

After the performance, Jia Rong applauded these beautiful women, thanked them for their wonderful performance, and made some insignificant suggestions.

Of course, he could also get deeper into it and do something on stage, but Jia Rong was not interested today.

He soon began to work hard for the inheritance of the royal bloodline, and after dealing with these things, he fell asleep peacefully.

The next day, Jia Rong frowned when he woke up.

Of course, it was not that someone was greeting him good morning. For the emperor, if someone suddenly touched his body in the morning, it would be a fatal thing.

Although Jia Rong was surrounded by his close confidants, he only allowed the palace maids and concubines who had been with him for many years to stay overnight, and they were not allowed to touch the dragon's body without permission.

"What did I want to do yesterday?"

Jia Rong thought hard, but always felt that he had forgotten something.

As he was thinking about it, Jia Rong remembered!

"It's definitely not normal to have the same dream twice in a row!" "Are there really fairies in this world?"

Jia Rong was thinking about his dream.

People are just like this, they talk nonsense. Sometimes they forget the dream they had in the morning, but suddenly they remember it when they think about something one day.

Jia Rong has always had an eccentric personality. For him, as long as there is something to do, it's enough. In fact, he is not in a hurry at all, and he doesn't care about things like corrupt officials.

Corrupt officials have existed for a long time. When we remember them and are interested in dealing with them, we will naturally deal with them.

At the moment, dreaming is more important.

Jia Rong quickly stood up from Yingchun and Tanchun's side, patted their buttocks, and asked the two women who were still sleeping to get up and help him put on his clothes.

Snapped!
Snapped!
Although there are only a few pieces of summer clothes, Jia Rong just doesn't want to wear them himself.

And getting up on time in the morning is conducive to the development of physical and mental health.

Soon the two ladies who were awakened began to help the emperor get up and have dinner together.

Jia Rong was afraid that he would forget something, so he said to the notebook: "Remind me tonight and ask Qin Keqing to come to sleep with me. See if I can have a good dream."

The maid replied, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will remember it."

Today is not the day for court attendance, so Jia Rong went back to work on his plane.

I had a simple lunch at noon and continued to work on the plane.

When she went to Nuanxiang Palace to have dinner with her family in the evening, Empress Shengren told Jia Rong what was happening in the court.

"The battle reports from the front lines were too slow to be transmitted. It took too long to get from the capital to the nine borders. The court officials thought of using fireworks to deliver the messages, or building tall towers to transmit flag signals, so that the messages could be delivered faster."

Jia Rong also knows the role of information transmission.

Wang Xifeng asked curiously, "Is it a beacon fire? I heard that during wars, beacon fire was used to spread the news of war, and it can be seen from a long distance."

The others also became interested and were concerned about the major events in the court.

Empress Shengren looked at Jia Rong, mainly to ask for his opinion.

"The Imperial Palace had previously researched fireworks for sending messages, and later His Majesty also liked to set off fireworks for liveliness. Nowadays, gunpowder is much easier to obtain, and every year there are special craftsmen researching this."

"The cabinet has always supported research into message transmission. Now we can use fireworks to transmit a few symbols to form text, but it has to be done at night."

"The Ministry of Industry's opinion is that a special time can be set for receiving and sending signals so that there will be no delays. For example, it will be dark at 8 o'clock every night, and you can see it at this time."

"Fireworks of different colors represent different things, such as earthquakes, floods, wars, plagues, and the front lines can also use fireworks that explode in different shapes to convey whether there is a great victory or a lack of food and supplies."

"One firework can travel 15 kilometers. If the first person sets off a firework, others will set it off later. A single spark can start a prairie fire. It can spread from the border to the capital overnight."

Jia Rong nodded and said, "Okay, let's use it temporarily until the wireless telegraph comes out."

Empress Shengren knew that Jia Rong had a lot of things going on, and she had no idea what they were all about, but she could convey Jia Rong's decisions.

"According to the order."

After finishing his meal, Jia Rong suddenly remembered that he wanted to have some fun by punishing corrupt officials...something that was harmful to the people.

However, I feel that this kind of thing is meaningless at the moment. Cracking down on corrupt officials has always been the job of the Censors and the Inspectorate, and there is no sense of accomplishment at all.

In the evening, Jia Rong and Qin Keqing had a private date, and Jia Rong slept with Qin Keqing in his arms all night.

A dreamless night...

So Jia Rong concluded that there were no gods in this world.

Suddenly, Jia Rong felt bored again and uncomfortable.

So Jia Rong thought of the corrupt officials again.

Those corrupt officials plundered the people's wealth and stole the country's wealth. They ate delicacies from land and sea, indulged in wine and meat every day, and lived a life of extravagance.

He was addicted to sensual pleasures, surrounded by dancers and singers, partying every night, playing with other people's wives and daughters, dragging good women into trouble, and persuading prostitutes to change their ways.

They are at large, no one dares to investigate, they live a carefree life and do whatever they want.

Greedy, never satisfied, with an insatiable desire for wealth and power.

He is arrogant and conceited, treats the people like grass and disregards the law.

Despite their luxurious lives, these corrupt officials are empty and lonely inside and cannot obtain real satisfaction and happiness.

The more Jia Rong thought about it, the angrier he became. When he thought about how well these people were living, he felt unhappy.

"Damn it! A bunch of crooked officials! I want to rid the people of this evil!!"
