The system has to be used even if it is pulled

Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng could not even raise their heads, because the senior managers in Rong Mansion were either their companions or their managers.

"That old lady did some bad things, which were done by the people around the gentlemen in the mansion."

The old lady was furious this time. She glared at her son and daughter-in-law fiercely and said, "Speak, tell me everything."

"The concubines in Brother She's room embezzled about a thousand taels, and the eldest sister-in-law moved two thousand taels to her parents' home. Aunt Zhao in Brother Zheng's room embezzled eight hundred taels, and the second sister-in-law moved five thousand taels to the Wang family. The younger concubines in Brother Lian's room embezzled several hundred taels, and Xifeng moved several thousand taels. I heard that she lent money outside and some people died."

As Zhao Yuanlang spoke out the words one by one, the women were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, begging for mercy non-stop.

"Okay, okay, very okay, you are going to be the head of the family like this, you bunch of crooked-minded maggots, you steal and are greedy for your own family's property; and you, Feng girl, you even dare to lend money outside, and people are killed. Good, good! You are all good, you are dividing the family property before I die. Okay, I won't bother you anymore, I will hang myself when I go back." The old lady began to cry and howl, scaring Jia Zheng and Jia She so much that they beat them severely a few times. Her wife began to apologize to the old lady.

It took a long time to coax the old lady. The old lady was also a smart person. Seeing that Zhao Yuanlang seemed to have something else to say, she waved her hand helplessly: "What else do you have? Say it all at once."

"Baoyu is no longer a virgin. He has had some affairs with the maids in the room."

This was a bolt from the blue. Grandmother Jia had always treated Baoyu as a good boy, but now Baoyu was panicking. He wondered who had said that, and Jia Zheng glared at her.

"You are such shameless little whores. I told you to serve Baoyu and you ended up serving him in bed? Who are you?" Grandmother Jia was furious at this moment. Looking at the maids from Baoyu's room who were kneeling on the ground, she wished she could beat them to death.

Jia Zheng became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. A child who was less than ten years old had done such a thing. What would happen to him in the future? He was so furious that he grabbed the teacup on the table beside him and smashed it on Baoyu who was kneeling on the ground.

"I'll beat you to death, you bastard!" Jia Zheng kicked Baoyu and he rolled on the ground.

"My son! Master, if you want to beat me, just beat me to death." When Mrs. Wang saw that her Baoyu was being beaten, she knelt down and took a few steps, then fell on Baoyu who had been frightened silly.

Jia Zheng pulled away Mrs. Wang who was lying on Baoyu, picked up a round stool and smashed it on Baoyu. Baoyu cried out in pain, and Grandmother Jia was in tears when she saw this.

"That's enough! Stop showing off your power here. You are in charge of the family. You are the master of the mansion. The family is in such a state. Why are you still showing off your power? If you hit Baoyu again, I will not live anymore."

Zhao Yuanlang looked around indifferently. Grandmother Jia was suddenly shocked when she saw the look in Zhao Yuanlang's eyes.

What on earth did he want to do? Not only did he get the Ning Mansion for nothing, but he also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to undermine the Rong Mansion? Yes, yes, after dealing with these people, most of them had to be gone, and the remaining people had to be arranged at this time. When he died, the remaining group of idiots would be played around by him. He was cold by nature, so he would definitely be able to do it.

At this moment, the entire Rong Xi Tang fell into silence. Only Sanchun and Daiyu looked at Zhao Yuanlang with intent eyes. Of course, there was also this kid Jia Lan, who was not afraid at all.

"Brother Mu, what do you think we should do?" Grandmother Jia was tired of trying and wanted to give Zhao Yuanlang a try.

Zhao Yuanlang felt amused. He was just watching the fun just now. He didn't expect the old lady to have so many ideas. Never mind. Let them be.

"I'm not the head of the Rong Mansion, so my words don't count. Auntie is still here, so you should decide what to do."

Grandmother Jia thought that this was Zhao Yuanlang's way of retreating to advance, and continued to persuade Zhao Yuanlang for a while, saying that the men in the family depend on him and that Zheng'er and She'er were useless.

Jia Zheng's face turned pale and Jia She was furious.

"That's enough, mother. Stop talking. They said that this family should not be left to the second son, but to me. Look at what's going on at home now. Let me take care of it. I will kill these maggots."

"What does it have to do with you? Look, there's nothing innocent in your own room. How dare you say that? Shut up."

Seeing that his mother was angry, Jia She sat down angrily again.

At this moment, a servant ran in and said a few words in Zhao Yuanlang's ear. Zhao Yuanlang turned and left.

Everyone was puzzled. After waiting for a few minutes, they saw Zhao Yuanlang coming back with a knife dripping with blood in his hand. Everyone was trembling with fear.

"What were you doing just now?" Grandmother Jia was also scared. The blood on the knife meant that he had just killed someone.

"A few daring ones tried to break out, so I chopped off more than a dozen of their heads."

The hall fell silent instantly after hearing these words. Even Baoyu stopped crying. Everyone looked at Zhao Yuanlang in fear and felt much colder around them.

"Aunt, the Wucheng Army Department just called me, I have to go back and change my clothes and go out. I will leave you thirty servants and ten strong women. You can take care of the affairs of Rong Mansion. I have to have a drink with Brother Qiu Liang from Jingtian Marquis's family. I have to deal with the affairs of Ning Mansion when I go back. Please forgive me for being rude. I will take my leave."

Jia Mu's eyes flickered with suspicion and joy. Finally, she nodded and watched Zhao Yuanlang walk out.

In the end, Grandmother Jia punished most of the people and took back the housekeeping power of Lady Wang and Jia Zheng. Lady Wang, Lady Xing, and Wang Xifeng were all sent to the Buddhist temple to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures for a month. Those concubines were all beaten with ten boards and sent to the Buddhist temple to copy scriptures for a month.

Baoyu was confined to his room and asked to reflect on his mistakes for a month. Jia Zheng even tested him on the Four Books and Five Classics. If he couldn't answer a single question, he would continue to be confined to his room. As for the maids who had relationships with Baoyu, each of them was given ten strokes of the cane and locked up in the laundry room for half a year of training.

For a moment, the old lady was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling when she saw that her net worth had increased by hundreds of thousands of dollars. She put all her things into the secret vault.

As for Zhao Yuanlang, he got even more, including 130,000 taels of silver, 1,600 acres of fertile land, six farms, 25 shops, dozens of houses and countless rare collectibles, calligraphy and paintings.

........

Soon, the affairs of the Ning and Rong mansions were exposed in the capital. After laughing at them, the princes and nobles also made up their minds to check their own homes. It turned out that almost every family had such an incident, so no one could laugh at anyone else.

The only ones who suffered were the soldiers of the Five Cities Military Department, but Qiu Liang was quite happy in it, because he got to know a lot of people. Of course, there were also those who ignored him, such as those who had made great contributions to the Yuan Dynasty. They directly transferred people from the Nine Gates Governor's Office under their command to handle the matter.

In the Forbidden City, Yangxin Palace, Emperor Kang Zheng was eating cakes and reading the secret reports from his subordinates. After a long while, he slowly said, "I didn't expect that Jia Mu is really capable. What do you think about asking him to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

Dai Quan didn't dare to speak, he just stood there with his back bent.

"No, no, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is too complicated. Even with the two princes, it can't be dealt with. It's difficult, difficult. And these soldiers, do they really think that the Nine Gates Governor's Office is their own private army? A bunch of bastards. Oh, and what do these soldiers believe in?"

Dai Quan hurriedly handed the summarized secret memorials to Emperor Kang Zheng, who squinted his eyes, looked at it for a while, and smiled.

"The matter of Duke Liang has been made a big deal. The Duke of Ning has always been humble and loyal, so he was transferred to the Jinyiwei and served as the Northern Pacification Envoy."

"Yes." Dai Quan then hurried out.

Within two days, news broke in the capital that Li Wei, the Duke of Liang, was the governor of the Nine Gates, and that some of his subordinates were drawing salaries without working, and that soldiers from the South Camp were extorting people in the outer city.

Soon, seven or eight memorials impeaching Li Wei were placed on Emperor Kang Zheng's desk.

Emperor Kang Zheng nodded with satisfaction. Everything was ready and he was just waiting for the morning court tomorrow.
