The Overlord of the Red Mansion

Chapter 346 Good Man

Jia Rong listened to the story told by Joseph, President of the Royal Society of London.

This scientist aristocrat has a wealth of adventure experience. He has traveled to many parts of the world to observe animals and plants, and has experience in making specimens.

"I allow you to visit my botanical garden." Jia Rong said with a smile, "But you have come a long way and need to rest for a day. My botanical garden has always been open to the public and nobles."

"I shall be glad to read Sir Joseph's works, and I hope you will stay a little longer."

"Of course you can also send messages to your family members via telegram."

Sir Joseph smiled and said, "Thank you, your kind and wise Holy Emperor. We have heard that you invented a telegraph device that can quickly transmit sound."

Jia Rong nodded and said, "The propagation of sound and the use of electricity can make life better and can also deal with disasters that were previously too late to deal with more promptly."

“Whether it’s seeking treatment or scientific communication, I believe things will get better and better.”

When Joseph and others arrived here, they were shocked by the power of this dynasty.

Not only are there huge steel ships and cannons, but the buildings are also magnificent and tall, and the grounds are clean and tidy.

The clothes people wore were all very decent, and especially after seeing the giant machines in the fields and the cars and rickshaws on the roads, you realized how common iron was in this country.

The most amazing thing is the use of electricity.

The emergence of electric lights and running water made the envoys realize that the country's technological level was higher than they had imagined.

Surprises continue to appear.

The emergence of electric fans, telegraphs, refrigerators, and washing machines made people realize the importance of electricity.

Although no one had seen the rumored plane that could cross the Pacific Ocean, everyone knew that it did exist and was made by the Holy Emperor himself.

After leaving the majestic palace, everyone was still immersed in the majesty and generosity of the Holy Emperor.

This holy emperor who saved countless lives and brought light to the scientific world was now lying in the car in an ungraceful manner.

In the front were the female driver and the female guard, and in the back row, Jia Rong was served by two beautiful eighteen-year-old women.

The car soon stopped in front of Baicao Palace.

As soon as Jia Rong got off the car, a woman in cheongsam came over carrying a wooden bed.

Eight women were kneeling on the ground waiting, carrying a sedan chair that looked like a bed. After Jia Rong got off the carriage, he just stepped on it.

Two young beauties also sat on it, and eight women nearby carried the three people, weighing more than 300 pounds in total, into the gate.

The eight women were all in their twenties or early thirties. They had some strength in their hands and carried the heavy objects quickly and steadily into the door on their shoulders.

"Welcome back to the palace! Long live the Holy Emperor!"

Jia Yuanchun and others knelt on the ground to greet him. This was the only time they could see Jia Rong in these few days.

Recently, Jia Rong didn't go to Nuanxiang Palace for dinner, perhaps because of the hot weather or because of the assassin.

Not only that, but the rest of the people who came to see him were also not seen.

Only at this time could everyone realize that Jia Rong was the emperor, not a husband.

When he doesn't want to see a woman, he doesn't have to see her.

An ordinary wife could go to her husband’s study or bedroom to find someone at will, but this was not allowed in the palace.

The palace has its own rules.

"Get up, you don't need to come anymore."

Jia Rong got off the bed. Although he had requested this bed and the palace maid was chosen by him, he could not sit on it after walking a few steps. Jia Rong did as he pleased.

Jia Yuanchun didn't say anything, so Lin Daiyu took the initiative to say, "Your Majesty, we also want to see Your Majesty every day, and we don't think it's hard to kneel here and wait for Your Majesty."

Jia Rong said casually: "Okay, I still have things to deal with, you should go back quickly and have a good rest."

Xue Baochai took the initiative to say, "Your Majesty, we sisters have been exercising recently and have also learned to dance. If Your Majesty has time, let us perform a dance for you."

"We'll talk about it when we have time." Jia Rong had some urgent matters to deal with, so he quickly took his people in.

Seeing Jia Rong leave, the women could only respectfully watch him go into the house, and after waiting for a while they got up one after another.

Jia Yuanchun comforted her sisters.

"Your Majesty has been troubled by many things recently, sisters, please don't bother him."

The others also looked helpless after hearing this.

Shi Xiangyun cursed: "It would be great if that assassin died earlier! It would be great if his whole family died!"

The rest of the people had the same opinion.

Xue Baochai said angrily: "That thief is hiding his true identity and dares not use his original name. He took the name of Zuo Luo and dares to say that he is acting on behalf of heaven? After catching him, we must kill all the men, women, adults and children in his family, otherwise there will be no peace!"

Lin Daiyu did not object to this statement.

It was because of Jia Rong's leniency that the root of disaster was left, and a vicious person emerged who specifically targeted court ministers and important officials.

Such people should not have any offspring, they must be killed completely to eliminate future troubles!

No matter how these people scold that person, that person will not be hurt because of this.

Over the years, there are at least millions, if not tens of millions, of people who have cursed others.

Who cares...

Jia Rong didn't care about that trivial matter. At this time, he was checking the refrigerator sent by the Ministry of Industry in the studio.

Now a fan has been installed in Jia Rong's bedroom in Baicao Palace, and it will be more comfortable if it is equipped with a refrigerator.

However, the refrigerator was a bit noisy, so Jia Rong placed it in the next room, more than ten meters away from his own house.

"In the future, put some watermelon and sweet tea in it, and it will taste better when it's cooled down!"

"According to the order!"

The Japanese princess happily agreed.

You don’t need to wear too many clothes in Baicao Palace, let alone underwear.

Two buttons in the front will make you look more attractive.

Whether it is the Princess of Japan or the other maids, palace servants and female officials, they all hope to be favored by Jia Rong, and are not opposed to clothing requirements that can increase their own charm.

After calming down, Jia Rong soon became addicted to women again and started to play with a group of beauties without restraint.

These people all took birth control pills a while ago, so they won't get pregnant.

Jia Rong actually had no idea of letting others raise his children, and he didn't think it was fun.

But he doesn't care about women. It is a good thing for these women to go back to be princesses, dukes and countesses. He will let them go back when they get tired of playing.

Because the weather was too hot, Jia Rong began to retreat again soon after arranging the affairs of the British delegation.

Some members of the British delegation could go back at any time, while others would stay to help build the planes, and create the third and fourth planes as soon as possible based on Jia Rong's plane.

The second plane is almost finished and is scheduled to be sold to a neighbor in the northwest. Planes are slow to build, but fans are much faster.

Iron fans were soon put into mass production, and refrigerator factories were also built.

In the past seven years, a lot of engineering talents have been trained, and many smart people have taken the initiative to participate. Coupled with generous treatment and a safe social environment, as well as the encouragement of Jia Rong, the Holy Emperor, the progress has been very fast.

All things are difficult at the beginning. After the first car, the first tractor, and the first harvester, many large machines became much simpler as we gained experience.

Related manufacturing equipment can also be manufactured more easily, and with the continuous influx of workers, it is a bit difficult to meet the consumption of a city, but there is definitely no problem in meeting Jia Rong's needs.

Jia Rong not only ignored Jia Yuanchun and others, but also Qingwen.

Qingwen, Yuanyang, Ping'er, Xiaohong and others all went to Nuanxiang Palace.

Yinglian also went there. She knew more people in Nuanxiang Palace and had fun with them, and her mother was not suitable to live in Baicao Palace.

Jia Rong is surrounded by many well-educated and well-mannered young ladies from noble families, as well as professionals.

There are also many female top scorers who stand out in various exams.

For example, the nursing examination in the women's hospital, the technical competition among the palace maids, and the techniques and skills of managing subordinates in daily life.

Jia Rong is very good at discovering talents. He can actually tell whether someone is mediocre or talented.

When he was in Ningguo Mansion, Jia Rong was a talent that he cultivated himself.

Governing a country is not difficult for Jia Rong, but Jia Rong does not like to put all his time and energy into it.

I don't like smoking, drinking, have no excessive pursuit of delicious food, and have no great interest in women.

If I don’t find some fun for myself, I’ll really get depressed!
No matter whether it is a good habit or a bad habit, if there is no substitute after you quit it, it will be really uncomfortable.

Jia Rong's pleasure is to find something to do.

Two days later, when Jia Rong suddenly woke up from the matter of the fan, the refrigerator and the woman, he looked at the moonlight and thought about the meaning of life.

In the seventh year of the Holy Dynasty, on June 14th, around 7:20 in the morning.

Jia Rong was sitting on the toilet reading a newspaper and listening to music when a female official from the inner court came in, bent over and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, a message came from the cabinet saying that the Minister of Personnel committed suicide out of fear of punishment and died at home."

Jia Rong frowned and said, "Have someone carry the body to the gate of the Holy Palace in a hearse. I want to see it myself."

"Yes, sir!" The female official knelt down and backed out of the clean toilet.

Jia Rong's toilet was a private toilet and no one else was qualified to use it, not even the queen.

The floor is absolutely clean, and there are various facilities for easy cleaning, as well as places for the musicians to sit.

Not only was the toilet luxurious, but as Jia Rong became richer and richer, he was surrounded by all kinds of palace maids.

The closet girl who is in charge of the closet, and the palace maid who is in charge of writing official documents.

Or they could be the palace maid who holds the lamps, the palace maid who tastes the food, the wet nurse, and so on.

Of course, the job of wiping Jia Rong's ass, which allows them to get close to him at a distance, was done by the princesses and daughters of high status.

Many people here are ten times more loyal than those in Nuanxiang Palace.

It's hard to say whether we will die together, but when something happens, we are willing to take the initiative to block bullets or kill people.

These bourgeois women often display great fighting power in maintaining the authority of men of equal or higher rank.

Especially when dealing with subordinates, he will show incomprehensible cruelty and coldness, but when dealing with a ruler like Jia Rong, he will be docile to the point of being willing to die.

The biggest problem with Jia Rong is that he is too strong physically and his brain is not weak either.

My brain isn't as gifted as my body, but because I see things too clearly, it makes it hard for me to like anyone or be moved by anything.

No one could persuade Jia Rong to turn back from his bad ways, cherish his comfortable life, and resolve his brutality with family affection and love.

Jia Rong himself couldn't do this, let alone these women who only had admiration and respect for him, who only knew how to stick their butts out to beg for favors and did not understand Jia Rong at all.

After going to the toilet, washing up and eating, Jia Rong changed his clothes and went to see the body of the Minister of Personnel.

After lifting the white veil, he saw the bullet hole between the eyebrows.

The left prime minister knelt down quickly and said, "I deserve to die!"

Jia Rong said indifferently: "It's okay. I know you don't want to make a big fuss, but some things are different from being an official. When you encounter something, you can't just think about concealing it and the overall situation. You have to be sincere."

"Sincerity is the key to the relationship between the monarch and his subjects. I am not the kind of incompetent and furious person, nor am I a tyrant who would let my subordinates die for me. Just tell me what you have to say."

"You know who the Minister of Personnel is. I know it too. I know that when water is too clear, there will be no fish. I also know what a normal person is."

"All living beings are normal people. When I was not yet a Duke and had not passed the imperial examination, I often made friends with some officials and knew that each had their own difficulties."

"I killed those who went too far. Any emperor would have killed the corrupt officials. They were all bastards who only knew how to eat and would not do anything for me."

"Minister of Personnel, I had said long ago that I would spare his life, but I didn't expect that he would still die."

"Decree that he be buried according to the standards of a first-rank official, and state the cause of death truthfully."

"According to the treatment for dying for the country, his son can join the Ministry of Personnel as a sixth-rank official as long as he is admitted to university."

"If his family has a beautiful daughter, or a relative's daughter within the three clans who is talented and beautiful, she can enter the palace to serve me and give their family a respectable reputation."

The left prime minister knelt down and said, "Long live the Holy Emperor!"

Jia Rong looked at the left prime minister and said, "As for you, you concealed the truth, deceived the emperor and concealed the truth. I will fine you one month's salary and stop all your benefits, including your carriages and guards, for one month. Are you convinced?"

The left prime minister knew that this was already a very merciful punishment, so he knocked his head to the ground.

"I am deeply grateful! Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me!"

Jia Rong said indifferently: "It's not a big deal. I know everything about you. Just continue to be an official and do your work peacefully. Don't worry about anything else."

"Yes! I kowtow to thank Your Majesty for his grace!" The Left Prime Minister was so moved that he cried and kowtowed to Jia Rong several times.

Jia Rong's words were equivalent to giving a golden medal of immunity from death.

Although I didn't really give him a sign, being able to say this directly in front of others was already giving him enough face.

The Minister of Personnel was buried very quickly, and within two days after the burial, his daughters started fighting over the opportunity to enter the palace to serve the emperor.

Even relatives and the concubines' families wanted to get involved and send their smart and beautiful daughters to the palace to be concubines.

Jia Yuanchun and others began to be neglected this month, but the noble ladies in the capital were well aware of the good life of the women in the Holy Palace. They had been watching for seven or eight years!

Everyone can see whether the women in the Holy Palace are happy or not.

In the past, there were many rules in the imperial palace, and it was easy to die in various open and secret struggles, but these are not a problem in the Holy Palace.

Women in the Holy Palace can often invite their natal family members into the palace, invite their natal sisters to play in the Holy Palace, invite their mothers, grandmothers, aunts and sisters to the palace for medical treatment, go to the zoo, botanical garden and amusement park, and take a yacht to watch fish in the Palace River.

And there is no need to be so busy. All you need to do is see the emperor every day. You will receive gifts and rewards on every festival, and there will definitely be good things.

You can play when you want to play, eat when you want to eat, and study when you want to study. There are countless talented women gathered here, and everyone inside is like-minded!
Although the emperor is now in his thirties, he looks like he is in his twenties. He is strong and healthy, and can help women give birth to sons.

There are hundreds of millions of people in the Holy Dynasty. Who doesn't know that the emperor is loyal in love, has a love for the beauties in the harem that is stronger than gold, never leaves them, is gentle and sincere, and especially respects women!
