The heavens start with letting the bullets fly

Chapter 539
Zhang Heqing hurriedly said: "This subordinate is here, please give orders!"

"This Xue Pan, let me execute it immediately, and send it to the village outside the city immediately. I'm afraid that if it's too late, my relatives who have turned a corner will come to ask for someone." Chen Zhao shook his head.

"Yes!" Zhang Heqing nodded, and immediately gave orders.

In fact, Chen Zhao was not worried about the so-called relatives coming to intercede.

Because he didn't think of them as relatives at all.

He and Lin Ruhai still have a cheap father, even if they have stayed in his house for a few years, they have worked hard to help him with all the affairs.

Seriously, as long as Daiyu was not engaged, he didn't owe Lin Ruhai any favors.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min's relatives have no effect on him.

What's more, Rongguo Mansion is really a mess.

Mother Jia claims to be the best housekeeper, but she doesn't know what she is in charge of.

The boss is a Xijue, but he can't live in the main hall and drinks with his wife in his arms all day long.

The second eldest brother, Fangzheng, is pedantic. He is still serving as a foreign minister of the Ministry of Industry when he is several decades old.

The housekeeper's second wife, Mrs. Wang, spends all day picking things from the office and stuffing them into the private storage.

The servants up and down were lying on the Rongguo Mansion sucking blood.

What's more important is that he obviously doesn't know how to raise children, but he still keeps a few children by his side.

I don't know what to teach!

But each of them still thinks highly of themselves and doesn't take the government seriously.

From time to time, Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng used the posts from the Rongguo Mansion to take over the lawsuits, eating up the plaintiffs and the defendants.

It's enough to make my head hurt when such a relative comes to my place and causes mischief.

Therefore, Xue Pan was dismissed earlier to save them from having delusions.

As soon as I thought of this, a soldier came to report: "My lord, the housekeeper Lin of Rongguo Mansion is asking to see you outside."

Hearing this, Chen Zhao chuckled, glanced at Zhang Heqing, and then at Sun Shaozong.

Zhang Heqing looked calm, but Sun Shaozong frowned.

After all, he had fought the autumn wind in the Rongguo Mansion, even if he hated them, he did a very good job on the surface.

At this moment, if we meet here, I'm afraid it will be very embarrassing.

Chen Zhao smiled: "Brother Sun, go and hide for a while!"

Sun Shaozong nodded, turned around and went to the inner room.

In fact, ever since Jin Yiwei implemented severe crackdowns, there have been many people who used connections behind their backs to take away favors.

It's just that no matter how strong the family relationship is, even if there is a post from the prince, Chen Zhao doesn't care about it.

After cleaning up the arrogant young master of Dingxibo Mansion yesterday, the whole capital was completely quiet.

Unexpectedly, the Rongguo Mansion came to the door.

Chen Zhao waved his hand and said, "Come in, please. My relatives are real, and I don't know who sent them here. A mere butler dares to come and say something."

Zhang Heqing also said at the side: "Although your Excellency is a relative of Rongguo Mansion, you did not rely on his family to achieve success. Moreover, your Excellency is a dignified first-class viscount, and he did not rely on Rongguo Mansion at all. If someone comes to plead for mercy, if it is a pardon, It’s just that the master is here, he is actually a butler..."

As he spoke, he shook his head and remained silent.

Not long after, Lin Zhixiao carried the hem of his clothes and entered the room.

Although Lin Zhixiao is the housekeeper of the Rongguo Mansion, responsible for managing the bank account, he behaves very low-key and never violates the rules, so he is quite respected in the mansion.

In contrast, Zhou Rui and his wife were a bit rampant.

Mrs. Wang also knew this, so she sent Lin Zhixiao over, hoping to use his prudence to talk to Chen Zhao.

From this point of view, Mrs. Wang can be regarded as a good person.

As soon as Lin Zhixiaofu entered the door, he saw Chen Zhao sitting behind the desk, with a hawk-like gaze with a bit of scrutiny. The clerk's office staff next to him also had an extraordinary bearing. His calves immediately became soft, and he hurriedly knelt down on the ground, kowtow respectfully. He nodded: "Little Lin Zhixiao, I have met Uncle Chen."

"You are Lin Zhixiao, the housekeeper of the Jia family? Get up."

Chen Zhao responded lightly.

His tone was calm. Lin Zhixiao was used to being cautious and didn't dare to take it seriously. He hurriedly responded and stood up.

Chen Zhao looked at Lin Zhixiao, who was sitting with a big knife and a golden horse, leaning his back against the back of the chair, and asked straight to the point: "I don't know why Steward Lin came to the yamen to look for me?"

"This……"

Lin Zhixiao took a peek at the others, but after all he didn't dare to ask Chen Zhao to invite him out, so he just laughed and said, "It's not a big deal, today my concubine and Miss Bao ran to the house and found Mrs. It is said that Brother Pan was captured by Jin Yiwei. It turned out that Brother Pan beat someone in a daze. At that time, he had already paid the silver taels, but the other party embezzled the money and wanted to take revenge, so he reported it to the government. As a result, Brother Pan was arrested by Jin Yiwei. , Said to be whipped fifty lashes, and then sent to work outside the city.

"Uncle Chen knows that my wife is the kindest, and my concubine and the girl are also kind people. Although this brother Pan is filial and obedient when drinking, he is usually filial and obedient. Injustice. So I sent me over to ask, see if I can let Brother Pan back first, sincerely reform, and stay at home with peace of mind."

These words are really flattering!

It was "confused" and "asking", which not only clarified the purpose of coming, but also left enough room for both parties.

He didn't know whether this was planned by Mrs. Wang in advance or whether it was Lin Zhixiao's own intention.

"You came here for this?"

Chen Zhao asked.

"Yes, yes, yes." Lin Zhixiao said with his head bowed.

"You are the housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion. When you saw me, you called me uncle, but you were talking about business. Do you think this is reasonable?" Chen Zhao asked lightly.

"Ah?" Lin Zhixiao looked puzzled.

Seeing this, Chen Zhao sighed inwardly.

He played the piano to a cow, and the other party didn't understand what it meant.

Considering that there are no rules in the Rongguo Mansion, these words should be addressed to the deaf.

"Lin Zhixiao, go back and tell your wife and concubine that Xue Pan's evidence is undeniable and undeniable. He has been whipped and sent to a labor camp outside the city. The concubine wants to see Xue Pan. Wait two months. .”

Chen Zhao said calmly.

"Uncle Chen." Lin Zhixiao was startled, and hurriedly called out.

Chen Zhao glanced at him, and said calmly, "Go back."

Just at this glance, Lin Zhixiao felt boundless majesty. Even when Rong Guogong was reborn, he did not have such a majestic aura. Lin Zhixiao was so frightened that his legs softened and he knelt on the ground.

"The villain quits, the villain quits!"

Even if he fell to the ground, Lin Zhixiao did not dare to take it. He lay down for a while, stood up, and left the room backwards.

Watching him leave the room, Chen Zhao sighed, and said to Zhang Heqing: "Look, it is said that this butler Lin is the most low-key and best able to handle affairs in Rongguo Mansion, and he doesn't understand the rules like this, and he still thinks about having a red mouth and white teeth." Just let Xue Pan go, isn't it too underestimated by our Jinyi soldiers?"

Zhang Heqing also smiled wryly.

However, I still admire Chen Zhao's attitude.

After a housekeeper entered the door, he didn't call him official, but only called him a personal name. It was obvious that he wanted Chen Zhao to favor himself.

Under such circumstances, it would be strange for Chen Zhao to ignore him.

If you don't beat him a few times and kick him out, it's just for the face of Rongguo Mansion.

Chen Zhao had just walked out and was about to speak when suddenly the soldiers came again to report: "Jia She, the first-class general of the Rongguo Mansion, is here. Please ask Chen Tongzhi to go out to greet him."

"Shout! An official has just left, and another master has arrived. This grand pardoner spared no effort for the nephew of his second wife." Chen Zhao smiled, without any intention of standing up, and said in a loud voice : "Invite him in!"

Even the housekeeper has met, not to mention the Xijue at home.

What's more, this Xijue is still Lin Ruhai's eldest brother-in-law.

We have to meet both emotions and reasons, right?
When Jia Amnesty heard the news from the soldiers, he was furious.

Although Chen Zhao was a member of the Imperial Guard, a third-rank official, and a first-class viscount, he often saw the emperor.

But no matter how precious you are, you are also a junior of Rongguo Mansion!
If you really talk about it, you have to call me uncle.

What's more, I am also a dignified first-class general.

The nephew sees the uncle, and the third-rank associate sees the first-class general.

No matter what, I should go out to greet him.

You are so lucky to let me in by myself!
So arrogant!

According to Jia She's temperament, if encountering such an unpleasant thing, he would just turn around and leave.

But now I can't go.

In his heart, Jia Mu is like a big mountain, which is difficult to overcome.

He had to fulfill the old lady's order no matter what.

Otherwise, if the old lady lost her temper, wouldn't he just assume the name of being unfilial?

If he really had the reputation of being "unfilial", he might even be deprived of his title as the son of a first-class general.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and strode in.

He has also been to the Jinyiwei yamen several times, and he knows that the format inside has rules, and there are soldiers leading the way, so he naturally knows where Chen Zhao's valet is.

No, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Chen Zhao waiting in front of the door, which made Jia She feel relieved.

Although the title of first-class general is first-rank, and Jin Yiwei’s commander Tongzhi is only from third-rank, the status gap is huge, and the relationship between the two parties is uncle and nephew, but when it comes to actual power, it will be reversed. No matter how reluctant Jia She is, A smile couldn't help but appear on his face, and he stepped forward and said:
"Brother Zhao, why did you come out? It's windy outside."

"How dare you not come out to greet me, Mr. Xi, don't be so polite, please sit down and serve tea!"

Chen Zhao smiled lightly, not caring about Jia She's sarcasm.

Since Chen Zhao asked, Jia Amnesty was not polite, walked directly into the living room, and sat down with a big horse and a golden sword. This lack of modesty made the soldiers on duty who were about to serve tea stunned.

Chen Zhao sat down with a smile, and asked, "I don't know why the elder is here today?"

Jia She sipped tea carefully for a while, nodded in satisfaction, and then thought of something to come over, and said: "I heard that Jin Yiwei took Lai Shangrong, the boy of Lai everyone, the old lady asked me to come over and ask what happened, see if I can forgive you. Ren for a while."

"In addition, brother Pan of Aunt Baoyu's family committed a crime. It is said that he will be whipped and then sent to a labor camp. Is there such a thing? I think that brother Pan is a good boy, and he was probably tricked by others. I think he can be let go." .”

Chen Zhao chuckled, and said: "Lai Shangrong is suspected of fraud in the imperial court. His family also lends money at usury, setting up a scheme to kill more than 20 people. The people's resentment is boiling, and the crime is heinous. He will work to death, and his family's property will also be usury. The entire Jinyi army is gearing up now, do you think I can stop it? Do you think everyone is worried?"

"As for Brother Pan, he deserves what he deserves. He might be able to change his past through hard labor..."
