Chapter 159 The nature of gods is to respond to softness and not to hardness!
“This must be Brother Cong.”

“Being made a marquis at such a young age has greatly enhanced the reputation of our Jia family.”

“In the future, we brothers should be closer!”

The so-called no matter what, don’t go to the Three Treasures Hall.

Jia Cong usually did not see outsiders in Lixiangyuan, and Jia Zhen wanted to visit him several times but was not able to see him.

Today, just when Jia Cong just returned home, someone was sent to wait in the West Mansion in advance.

I came here at this time on purpose.

Just a few words and the atmosphere became dull.

Jia Cong glanced at Jia Zhen.

I don’t want to pay attention to him. He is just a good-for-nothing and not much better than Jia She.

Instead, he was extremely curious about Qin Keqing’s identity.

The disaster of Ning Rong started from the east!
A famous person in the list of Twelve Beauties of Jinling, with top talent for spiritual cultivation.

The top dignitaries in Shenjing, including Emperor Shunde, all believed that Qin Keqing was the daughter of the late crown prince.

But Jia Cong knew that the real daughter of the former crown prince was Miaoyu.

Then Qin Keqing’s identity is very interesting.

……

Here, Jia Cong was guessing Qin Keqing’s identity, but Jia Zhen just finished speaking.

I didn’t expect Jia Cong to not give me any face at all.

He just stood there awkwardly, with a hint of jealousy in his eyes.

“Zhen’er, Cong’er just came back from the expedition and is exhausted from the journey.”

“It’s a rare opportunity for you to come here, come and sit down!”

“Parrot, ask the kitchen to prepare a good meal. Let’s have a good gathering here today.”

Upon seeing this, Grandmother Jia hurriedly spoke up to smooth things over.

“The old lady is right. It’s all my fault for being so careless. I should come and greet her more often!”

Jia Zhen quickly took advantage of the situation and took Jia Rong to sit below Lady Jia.

Qin Keqing walked over and stood next to Wang Xifeng, her face still looking sad.

……

“My dear grandson, I heard from your second uncle that today His Majesty not only appointed you to inherit the title of nobility.”

“He was promoted several ranks and given the title of Marquis of Wuwei? Is this true?”

After everyone was seated, Grandmother Jia urgently asked the question that concerned her most.

“My grandson was just about to tell the old lady about this…”

“The mansion that Your Majesty asked the Ministry of Works to renovate for me has been completed. I am thinking of asking Sister Yuanyang to bring people to clean it and move in in the next few days.”

The Ningguo and Rongguo mansions occupied an entire street, with the Rongguo mansion in the west and the Ningguo mansion in the east.

The mansion built for Jia Cong by Emperor Shunde was first based on the marquis system, and then the duke system was added.

Even with such additional additions, it still couldn’t catch up with the speed at which Jia Cong’s strength grew.

If it wasn’t for the fact that there was no more spacious space in Shenjing City.

I’m afraid the duke system will be changed to the prince system now.

It is located just west of Rongguo Mansion, across a road.

Further west of Jia Cong’s Marquis of Jing’an Mansion is the Princess’ Mansion, which is right next to Baochai.

That was a real royal mansion, with carved beams and painted buildings, extremely luxurious.

“My dear grandson, why are you making a fuss about moving out for no reason?”

“But which damn servant in the mansion has offended you again!”

“Tell grandma that I won’t punish them. When grandma followed Daishan, she also killed people.”

When Lady Jia heard this, she became anxious.

It was a great thing that Rongguo Mansion’s title was restored from second-class general to marquis.

If Jia Cong moved out of the mansion, a good thing would turn into a bad thing, which would be a huge joke.

“Brother Cong, this is actually my fault…”

“My eldest brother was implicated by that person, and my father asked us to move into this main courtyard before he died, also to show it to the royal family…”

“I originally wanted to move out after a few years, but my eldest brother became more and more outrageous in the East Cross Courtyard!”

Jia Zheng thought Jia Cong was dissatisfied with him occupying the main courtyard of Rongguo Mansion, so he stood up to explain. After he finished speaking, he turned to Jia Mu.

“Mother, father has passed away for many years. It is not right for my son and his family to stand in the main courtyard like this.”

“We have a three-story house in the west of the city, why not take advantage of today to divide the family property?”

“This… this… how…”

Grandmother Jia was reluctant to part with Jia Zheng, but she also knew that the Rongguo Mansion could not do without Jia Cong.

It would be really unjustifiable for Jia Zheng to occupy the main courtyard again.

“Uncle, you’re worrying too much. I’m not dissatisfied with you.”

“Not even coveting these properties in your house.”

At this time, Jia Cong shook his head and began to explain.

“I now have a noble title and an official position, and I have 800 personal soldiers. It is really inconvenient to have no place to put them.”

“In addition to your daily training, Lixiangyuan is too small, so you can live here peacefully.”

Jia Zheng also noticed Jia Cong’s frequent concern for him on weekdays.

Today, he even directly asked for a division of the family, and was separated from the mansion like the illegitimate sons of other powerful families.

Voluntarily hand over all the property in the mansion.

This just fits Jia Cong’s character of being soft-hearted and not hard-hearted.

“Then you don’t have to move out…”

“My dear grandson, today in Rongqing Hall, in front of the whole family, grandma will speak openly.”

“In the early years, the mansion really let you down. You had top-notch talent, but you didn’t dare to show it at all during your practice, and you didn’t get any help from the mansion.”

“It’s only right that you’re disloyal.”

“Everyone says you have a cruel personality, but grandma knows you have a soft heart.”

“These days, the mansion has relied on you a lot, and you have never said a word.”

“Now that the eldest brother and his family are gone, when grandma asks you for help once, you can’t write two Jias with one stroke.”

“But don’t talk about splitting up the family anymore.”

Grandmother Jia’s eyes were filled with tears.

Ever since Jia Cong revealed his methods, Grandmother Jia has been trying her best to repair her relationship with him.

However, Jia Cong’s strength increased too quickly, and Emperor Shunde was running out of things to offer to win him over.

Not to mention the declining Rongguo Mansion.

Sanchun, who was standing by, also looked at Jia Cong expectantly.

Sanchun was raised by Grandmother Jia, so they still have some feelings for her.

Besides, Jia Cong moved away, so he was far away.

Unlike now, we can gather in Lixiangyuan every day without leaving the house, and the managing nanny in the courtyard dare not say a word.

Unfettered.

He just didn’t want to influence Jia Cong’s choice, so he didn’t dare to say anything.

“Forget it, my grandson has never thought about dividing the family.”

Jia Cong shook his head.

How could an innate god be threatened by mortals?

Except… my sisters at home!
Now that his cultivation has become more profound, Jia Cong has a feeling more and more.

Shinto must never be a ruthless path.

The sisters in the family are the anchor for Jia Cong to maintain his human emotions.

It is also a safe haven where you can take a short rest when you are tired.

Lixiangyuan can be said to be an independent entity in the mansion, and it makes no difference whether it is divided or not.

“How about this, my grandson will ask His Majesty to seal the road between my mansion and the palace tomorrow and bring it into the palace, so that the two markets can be merged into one.”

“Open a door in my Lixiang Courtyard to connect the two mansions.”

“This way my grandson will have a place to practice, and we won’t have to divide the family.”

Jia Cong proposed a new solution.

Given his status as an innate god today, no one in the court would dare to gossip about this request.
