Poor Family: I reached the top by marrying a wife

Chapter 768 Lost and wore women's clothes

"Your Majesty! You must not do this!"

When Eunuch Zhang heard Cai Jing's words, he immediately realized Cai Jing's good intentions!

If Jiang Chen is really made Duke, then he will definitely be doomed in the future!

This is absolutely not okay!

"No? Why not?"

When Emperor Dajing heard what Eunuch Zhang said, he was stunned.

If Jiang Chen is not made Duke, how can he be rewarded?!

Jiang Chen's contribution is so great that even if he is rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, it would not be enough!

"Your Majesty, Lord Jiang is so young, and he has become a duke. What do others think? "

"I am worried that the civil and military officials in the court will not accept it!"

Eunuch Zhang said this with a serious face.

But when Emperor Dajing heard this, he became angry!

"Dissatisfied?"

"Why are they not convinced?!"

"If they have the ability of Lord Jiang, I will also make them dukes!"

"I hope that Dajing will have more ministers like Lord Jiang!"

"Unfortunately, they can't do it!"

"There's no need to talk about this anymore, I've already made the decision!"

"Lord Cai, Lord Jiang, the title of Duke will be given to you to lead the Ministry of Rites in research!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

When Cai Jing heard the words of Emperor Dajing, he respectfully accepted the order.

Eunuch Zhang saw that the matter was done, and although he was reluctant, he had no choice but to accept it...

Eunuch Zhang and Cai Jing left the imperial study one after another.

However, while Cai Jing was full of vigor and vitality, Eunuch Zhang was very depressed.

If outsiders didn't know the situation, looking at the two of them, it would seem as if Cai Jing had been rewarded and made a duke!

As for Eunuch Zhang...

He returned to his house.

After entering the study, Eunuch Zhang fell into deep thought.

Now, Jiang Chen’s contribution is huge!

It is indeed unjustifiable not to confer the title of Duke.

But, Jiang Chen is now the Duke, what will he do in the future?

No, when Jiang Chen comes back, he must keep a low profile.

Otherwise... Jiang Chen would probably be dead!

Any tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!

Jiang Chen should understand this principle, right?

……

Just one hour later, the news that Jiang Chen was to be made Duke had spread throughout the capital!

"Have you heard? Lord Jiang defeated the Eighth Sage King in Jiangnan, and now he is going to be made a Duke!"

"Really? Lord Jiang is so amazing!"

"Not Lord Jiang, but Lord Jiang from now on!"

"Hahaha! Lord Jiang!"

"This is what a good official like Lord Jiang should do!"

"Yes! Lord Jiang works for the people, so he should be a high official!"

"Lord Jiang..."

The people of the capital city continued to discuss this.

When Luo Ye heard the news, he was so angry that he crushed the teacup!

"Sir!?"

"Duke!?"

"Jiang Chen is only twenty years old!"

"You're actually... actually going to be a duke!?"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

"Your Majesty, how unfair you are!"

"I sacrificed my life for Dajing, but you won't even give me the position of Minister of Finance!"

"But when it came to Jiang Chen, you actually made him the Duke!"

"You tyrant, you deserve to die!"

"Damn it!"

Luo Ye cursed angrily!

At this moment, Luo Ye's heart was filled with resentment!

He is not convinced!

I really can't accept it!

They are both General Luo’s adopted sons!

Why is Jiang Chen doing better than him?!

You know, his background is better than Jiang Chen's!

Jiang Chen is just the son of a poor craftsman!

He is the descendant of a general!

Although he is just a small general, but... he is also the descendant of a general!

It seems that he was right to join Dakang!

Dajing, not worth lingering!

……

On the other side, the Dongfang family.

Dongfang Wan'er was all smiles when she learned that Jiang Chen was going to be a duke.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you really know how to help him~"

"Let him become a duke at the age of twenty, and be famous all over the world~"

"Aren't you helping him build momentum?"

"Alas~ I really don't know what your expression would be on the day Jiang Chen rebelled~"

The more Dongfang Wan'er thought about it, the more she laughed, and finally she even laughed out loud!

When the maidservant next to her heard Dongfang Wan'er's laughter, her face was full of disbelief!

Her young lady hasn’t smiled for a long time!

Now, he actually smiled for Jiang Chen! ?

It seems that the young lady really likes Lord Jiang!

At the same time, the Shao family.

Mrs. Shao was packing her things.

But when he learned that Jiang Chen wanted to be a duke, he was so angry that his whole body was shaking!

"Jiang Chen! Are you worthy of being a Duke?"

"Just wait, sooner or later, I will kill you!"

Mrs. Shao said this through gritted teeth.

Mrs. Shao only has hatred for Jiang Chen!

If possible, she would bite Jiang Chen to death!

However, when Yao Chao looked at this scene, his face was full of helplessness.

He knew that Mrs. Shao could not be a match for Jiang Chen.

This Dajing may belong to Jiang Chen in the future.

But he didn't dare tell Mrs. Shao.

Because in the future, he might be able to use Shao Shuyi to save Mrs. Shao's life!

I just hope Jiang Chen won’t be too heartless!

After Yao Chao knew that Cai Jing recommended Jiang Chen to be the Duke, he sneered even more!

Yao Chao could naturally see that Cai Jing's move was intended to harm Jiang Chen.

But unfortunately, Cai Jing didn’t know that Jiang Chen... would rebel in the future!

So no matter how arrogant Jiang Chen is, I am not afraid!

Not only will it not be harmful to Jiang Chen, it will also bring many benefits to Jiang Chen!

……

night.

At the Jinling County Government Office, Jiang Chen, Xu Meng and Xu Yunchang drank together and then felt dizzy and planned to go back to their room to rest.

But just as he passed by the backyard, he saw someone playing chess under the moon.

Jiang Chen walked over and saw that it was Yan Youling playing chess.

"Lord Jiang, have you... been drinking?" Yan Youling smelled the alcohol, saw Jiang Chen, and asked with a smile.

"I...I drank some, but not much."

"Mr. Yan, it's so boring for you to play chess alone!"

"How about we play a game together?"

Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Oh? Has the Marquis come to his senses?"

When Yan Youling heard that Jiang Chen wanted to play chess with him, she couldn't help but become interested.

“Haha, I understand a little bit.”

"But I can't play chess without a stake!"

Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Then... I wonder what kind of prize the Marquis wants?" Yan Youling asked with a smile.

"I don't want much in the stakes. If I win, you can... put on women's clothes and let me see how it goes?"

Jiang Chen took advantage of the alcohol and started flirting with her.

When Yan Youling heard this, her face turned slightly red.

But she still agreed: "Okay, if I lose, I will wear women's clothes for you, sir. But what if you lose?"

"Just tell me what you want!" Jiang Chen became excited when he heard Yan Youling agree!

"Since the Marquis is so straightforward, I won't be polite. If I win, the Marquis will tell me the secret of praying for rain. How about that?" Yan Youling asked Jiang Chen while staring at him.

She felt that Jiang Chen must have a special skill to pray for rain!

Otherwise, it couldn't be that lucky that Jiang Chen could successfully pray for rain every time!
