The destiny of all heavens begins in the Red Chamber

There's a story about Wei Qing, the Grand General and Grand Marshal during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, and no one seems to think there's anything wrong with doing this.

However, Madam Wang's expression was not very natural, clearly indicating that she had not been notified in advance and was definitely unhappy.

But she couldn't say much!

The old lady is already eighty years old, what's wrong with her being a little willful?

As for Master Zheng, he was not very knowledgeable about domestic affairs or interpersonal relationships, so how could he possibly care about Madam Wang's feelings?

Given Jia Huan's current status and position, it would indeed be unreasonable for his birth mother and her family to still be considered slaves.

If Jia Huan cares, that's one thing; but if he doesn't care, then it's the Rong family and Lady Wang, their legal mother, who will be embarrassed and awkward.

It's estimated that even the current emperor would have to get involved in this matter!

What? The young general he values ​​has a birth mother in the Rong family who is still a slave. Whose face are you trying to slap?

If that's the case, the core members of the Rong family will be punished.

Even Consort Yuan, who is in the inner palace, will likely be implicated and suffer undeserved disaster!

Although Madam Wang was not very clever, she understood this obvious principle.

So, although they were caught off guard, they didn't say anything to disagree.

But what the old lady said next made her change color in horror, and her eyes involuntarily flashed with resentment and a cold, fierce light.

"Second brother, how about we register Huan-ge'er's name under your wife's name?"

The old lady pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "That way, people won't gossip about us outside!"

"That's a good idea!"

"No!"

The voices of Master Zheng and Madam Wang rang out almost simultaneously.

The once harmonious atmosphere of Rongxi Hall suddenly became quiet.

"Grandma, let's just forget about it!"

Jia Huan spoke up at the opportune moment, smiling, "There's no need for that!"

"Why is it unnecessary?"

The old lady was a little angry and said with dissatisfaction, "You should know that people's background is very important in the outside world!"

As he spoke, he gave Madam Wang a fierce look, his eyes full of warning and dissatisfaction.

Madam Wang lowered her eyes, her heart filled with rage and hatred, yet she dared not lash out.

"Grandma, do you think anyone would dare to say these things to my face?"

Jia Huan, however, was unconvinced and retorted with a smile, "Anyone who dares to speak to my face, I'll slap them across the face. Even members of the royal family won't escape!"

Upon hearing this, Rongxi Hall fell silent once more!

The core members of the Rong family present all looked at Jia Huan, who was spouting nonsense, in astonishment.

Seeing Jia Huan's confident expression, which didn't seem like he was just boasting, a strange and inexplicable feeling arose within him.

Where does this guy get his confidence and arrogance to say that he will beat any member of the royal family?

The old woman's eyes were the most complex, containing little shock but rather a deep sense of reminiscence and a sudden surge of excitement.

To be honest, the old lady was actually quite familiar with this kind of scene!

Even at the height of the Rong family's power, they had such confidence and pride!

So what if they're royalty? If they mess with the legitimate sons of the Jia family, they'll be beaten without hesitation!

Back then, Master She was known as the number one playboy in the capital, and that title wasn't just for show.

To put it bluntly, when Lord She was at the height of his power, only the deposed crown prince could barely overshadow him; none of the other princes dared to challenge his dominance.

A prince as insignificant as he is now is not even qualified to get close to Jia She!

It wasn't like Lord She hadn't beaten princes before; afterwards, the Emperor Emeritus even sided with Lord She, giving the prince who had deliberately provoked trouble a severe beating.

It's not that the Emperor Emeritus was truly selfless, but rather that the Rong family had the power to do so!

The head of the Ning family, Jia Daihua, was the military governor of the Beijing garrison. His control over the garrison was so strong that even the imperial family dared not underestimate it.

Jia Daishan, the head of the Rong Mansion, had just returned to the capital from the border and assumed the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Central Army of the Five Armies Commandery, which was undoubtedly the top position in the military system of the Great Qian Dynasty.

At that time, the Jia family in the capital held a unique position in the army.

Even the four kings of different genders wouldn't dare say they could outdo the two heads of the Ning and Rong families!

Unfortunately, such glorious days did not last long!

With the death of Jia Daihua, the head of the Ning family, and Jia Daishan's serious injury in the battle to depose the crown prince, and his subsequent retribution, the once glorious Jia family in the capital quickly declined.

Seeing Jia Huan's arrogant demeanor, the old lady felt a sense of déjà vu, so how could she possibly remain calm?

Caught off guard by Madam Wang's unwilling, bitter face, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking that Madam Wang was incredibly foolish, and thus gave up her insistence.

Wang Shi didn't even consider that if Jia Huan became the nominal legitimate son, even if it was out of consideration for their relationship, she would inevitably have to take better care of Bao Yu.

In addition, this is also a necessary means to deepen its relationship with the Rong family!

So what if he is a member of a collateral branch of the clan at this time?

As long as he carries the title of the legitimate son of the second wife, the relationship will naturally be much closer!

The reason why Lady Wang refused was that her first thought was that Jia Huan might affect Jia Baoyu's interests. This was a subconscious reaction and also her true thought.

Fortunately, Jia Huan didn't need such embellishment; he easily resolved a potential conflict without it even realizing it.

"Grandma, His Majesty has already bestowed upon me a viscount's residence, along with all the necessary items and servants, while I was in the palace. I can simply move in!"

"We can send some loyal and honest servants over here in the manor!"

"Once everything is arranged over there, I will host a banquet for relatives, friends, and colleagues to formally welcome you into my family!"

"That's good, the arrangements are very appropriate!"

The old lady nodded in satisfaction, but in her heart she had made up her mind to carefully select the servants to be sent over.

Jia Huan made it very clear that he needed someone who was 'loyal and honest,' so let's go with that condition.

The old lady knew better than anyone what kind of people the servants in the manor were.

It's just that some things have become second nature to her. Plus, she's too old and just wants to enjoy her retirement; she no longer has the desire or energy to cause any trouble.

As for Madam Wang, the old lady had no intention of letting her get involved.

She didn't want to ruin her relationship with Jia Huan because of Madam Wang; that would be a huge loss.

They weren't close to begin with, so if something else goes wrong, how will they communicate in the future?

"By the way, what are Huan-ge'er's plans for the future?"

After finishing their conversation about everyday matters, the old lady inquired about Jia Huan's plans for the coming period.

According to her thinking, Jia Huan would definitely try to integrate into the circle of founding nobles, and it was even possible for him to squeeze into the core group with his own abilities and power.

The old lady had a plan in mind and decided to use her influence to help Jia Huan make a breakthrough!

With the help of his relatives, Jia Huan will be able to integrate more smoothly into the core circle of the founding nobles.

Thinking about all this, the old lady's feelings inevitably became complicated.

Since Jia Daishan's death after the dethronement of the crown prince, the Rong family has been kicked out of the core of the founding noble group and has never been able to squeeze back in.

It's impossible to say that you don't feel resentment or displeasure!

Think back to the beginning...

However, with Jia Huan's rise to power and the Rong family becoming core members of the founding nobles' circle, he was quite gratified.

Finally, during her lifetime, the Rong family rose again.

Unfortunately, her idea was good, but the situation outside was changing too quickly.

"Madam, His Majesty has already made arrangements!"

Jia Huan said in a deep voice, "Such a huge mess has occurred in the Southwest, and the current ruler wants his grandson to go over and clean up the mess!"

At this point, his tone was tinged with disappointment, saying, "Even without His Majesty's arrangement, I must go to the southwestern frontier!"

Ignoring the astonished expressions of the crowd, he continued, "The defeat of the Prince of Nan'an, and his capture by the enemy, has really put our founding noble group in a difficult position!"

"Brother Huan, isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?"

The old lady frowned and said, "Even if the Prince of Nan'an was defeated in the southwest and captured by the Kingdom of Qianxiang, it doesn't mean much. After all, victory and defeat are common occurrences in war!"

"Furthermore, the Prince of Nan'an's dispatch of troops was authorized by the current emperor, who also secretly gave it a strong push. Now that something has happened, the current emperor cannot ignore it!"

The rest of the sentence was left unsaid, but everyone present understood what was going on!

If the current emperor does not take action, his credibility will be severely damaged, and who will dare to trust his promises in the future?

Even the emperor, a dignified ruler, cannot do certain things, nor can he actively break certain established rules, otherwise the backlash will be severe.
