The patriarch of the Red Mansion is so handsome

Mrs. Wang naturally agreed with Jia Zheng's move of "forcing the palace".Although she has been in charge of Rongfu's middle supporter for many years, it can be said that she has controlled half of Rongfu's family property, but it is precisely because of this that Mrs. Wang's eyes are getting hotter.Although they all started from wars, the ranks of the Jia family and the Wang family can also explain the problem, and the Jia family made a lot of money.Jia's father-in-law is rich, and she can include it in her private house little by little like ants moving house.But even so, she was still not satisfied.If Mrs. Wang is envious of Jia Mu's private property, and jealous of Jia Amnesty, who is said to have won the private property of the old lady who founded the Jia family, then she hates Ning Mansion.

Since Xichun was raised in the Rong Mansion, Mrs. Wang took the dowry that Xichun got as her personal property.Just waiting to raise people casually, and then find a merchant's family to marry and get some dowry on the grounds that the Ning Mansion has a bad reputation.Thinking back when the second daughter of their Wang family married the Xue family, the dowry gift that the Xue family sent into the house was really interesting.After all, Jia Xichun is still the eldest granddaughter of the Ningguo Justice School, and the direct daughter of the Jia family.

When Qin Keqing's funeral was being handled, Mrs. Wang's heart ached even more when she saw the Milky Way rushing by.She knew that the Ning Mansion was rich, but she didn't expect it to be so rich!But after thinking about it, I found out that it is also true, the Ning Mansion has only one vein, although there is a so-called Ning Mansion's decent great-great-grandson Jia Qiang.But the origin is not very clear, it all depends on Jia Daihua's own confession before his death.She has lived with Jia Zhen since she was a baby. When she grew up, Jia Zhen only had a leaky finger, and she gave away some houses and tens of thousands of property.And more importantly, Jia Zhen still holds the family property in her hand.Ninety percent of the family's wealth comes from the two great masters of Rongning in the past.

It hurts just thinking about it!

If the money that was used to save the clan these years was sent to the palace, her concubine's daughter might be able to manage the respect room better and get more opportunities to be favored.

It is time to support her husband in seizing power just from financial considerations, not to mention political considerations.Mrs. Wang was thinking, her eyes were full of murderous intent.For such a simple case of encroaching on fertile land, Sansi and his group of trash didn't close the case early. Wang Ziteng.

Mrs. Wang recalled that she had received the news that the two sluts from the Ning Manor had come to Wang's house to make a scene, and she had a sullen sneer on her face, as if a poisonous snake spit out a snake letter, and she didn't have the bodhisattva appearance in the servant's mouth.

Cutting off her money, destroying her natal family's backing and implicating her daughter, it's not a human being not to take revenge!

"Ma'am, I found a girl from the Lai family in front of the second door." Zhou Rui's family hurried in, but when they saw Mrs. Wang's distorted grin, they still froze for a moment. road.

"I forgot that the old godmother still has a loyal dog slave." Mrs. Wang shook her veil and ordered: "Keep holding on, no one can get out of the second door, and watch the old godmother .”

She, Wang Wan, is not that stupid, if Jia Zheng didn't ask the old godly woman directly, why should she be scolded rashly at this moment.When all the dust settles, it is unbelievable that the old godly woman will scold the couple.

snort!

Mother Jia in Rongqing Hall heard that the people she sent out were stopped again, and she was so angry that her whole face turned black.Jia Amnesty's wickedness was out of control and caused a catastrophe. She hasn't figured out how to save one or two of them. Now his son is really lost by that little slut and vixen of the Wang family. What kind of patriarch does he want? position.

What's the use of breaking the position? !

Not to mention dealing with trivial matters, the Jia family looks at the whole family, how many successful ones are there?What really can't be parted is the blood interest group formed by the ancestors of Rongning and Ningfu and Yijia.

Jia Zhen committed suicide and evil, trying to find a way to make people wind up immediately, Jia Rong is disobedient, she can also find a way to kill her, and then let people have a "posthumous child", everything can be solved perfectly.

just now……

Mother Jia was so angry that she calmed down, looked at Nanny Lai with heavy eyes, let out a breath slowly, and asked, "Is it because I am mentally retarded or is Jia's Feng Shui wrong? How could I have such two stupid sons?"

Since the answer to this question was too simple, Mammy Lai didn't want to answer it, but she had followed Jia Mu for many years.She also knew that if Jia Zheng was pushed into something, it would not be easy for her to avenge her son in the future.

Suppressing the killing intent in her heart, Nanny Lai persuaded: "Old lady, you don't have to worry too much. The old slave said something bold, how can I argue with those old fried dough sticks in the clan with the temperament of the master? Jia's family is in Beijing. There are more than [-] branches of the Eight Households in the past few years. Those house owners are all cunning and cunning, and I am afraid that the master will not get what he wants."

"I'm afraid of the Ning Mansion..." Mother Jia said, her face darkened even more, her eyes burst out with a strong light, with the accumulation of years and the sharpness of many battles, " Do you think this is a trap? Didn’t Jia Zhen, that heartbroken villain, say she wants to divide the clan?”

"Could it be that he tried to find a way to send people to grind Zheng'er's ears, and that little bitch of the Wang family, that caused Zheng'er to ignore all kinds of reputation and do such a thing?" The more she said, the more excited Mother Jia looked. Fen: "It must be like this! Let's go out together, I must stop Zheng'er!"

"But the place outside the second room was almost guarded by Mrs. Wang and even a few elite soldiers from the Wang family." Nanny Lai said anxiously when she heard this, "This old slave is incompetent, and I really can't send any news."

"Hmph!" Mother Jia sneered and said meaningfully, "Don't worry, the second child's family is still filial."

After finishing speaking, Mother Jia took a step closer to Nanny Lai, bowed her head and gave some instructions.

After Mammy Lai was shocked, she was overjoyed and said in a low voice, "I'll do it now, old slave."

After half a stick of incense, a side room of Rongqing Hall caught fire, with thick smoke billowing.

Mrs. Wang's eyes were heavy when she heard the voice of "Get into the water, help me" that was so hoarse that it reached her ears.Jia Zheng, who was discussing the way of persuasion with his staff in the study, rushed into Mrs. Wang's room angrily, frowning: "Didn't you ask you to take care of the backyard? How can you run out of water?"

Jia Zheng felt that Rongqingtang was going to be flooded, and he thought about it with his toes, and he also knew that it must be his mother's trick, a trick to make him die.But the more he stopped him like this, Jia Zheng became more stubborn and paranoid. In his mind, he recalled the scenes of Jia's mother saying: "Zheng'er, you can study at ease, and the rest is a future mother", and he felt that Jia's mother was extremely false.Usually, he seems to be obedient to him and responds to every request, but when it comes to critical times, it is never helpful.

Back then, it was she who encouraged him to fight as a younger brother, but the title still belonged to Jia Amnesty.

Now, he finally had the desire to compete, and he didn't even think about relying on her, but this mother stabbed him in the back.

However, he is a dutiful son, how could he blame his mother.

Naturally, it was the fault of Mrs. Wang, the head of the back house, for not doing things well.

"I hope that the master will not calm down." Mrs. Wang took the handkerchief in her hand as Jia Zheng, and Jia's mother came to curse, but she held back her anger and readily admitted her mistake, and said in a low voice: "I have already sent someone to put out the fire." As for the outside, as the saying goes, it is as deep as the sea in the palace. In the courtyard at the back door, who can know that it is the old lady's courtyard? This news cannot be spread outside, let them shout, and then punish some slaves. You Not at home again."

Hearing this, Jia Zheng's face softened for a while. After thinking about it, he asked Jia's mother if there was nothing wrong, and said in a warning tone: "This time is fine, but don't want to have a next time. Although the old lady is old, she is a little old. Childish, but after all, he is the old lord of the Jia family."

"Yes, I would like to follow the teachings of the master." Mrs. Wang said, bowing respectfully after hearing the words.

"Well, you also have some snacks. Brother-in-law said that the imperial concubine in the palace is having a hard time recently." Jia Zheng said, "We will work together to solve the matter as soon as possible, and we can also help the empress."

"My lord, what you said is just that it will be quite difficult to finish it in just two days." Even if Mrs. Wang wants to divide the clan and become a clan wife, she can use her head to think about it, and she knows that even if this matter The other houses agreed, but the Ning Mansion did not agree, it was a waste of effort.

"You don't need to worry about it." Jia Zheng smiled confidently, leaving a confident sentence: "You just watch the old lady and wait for my news."

After speaking, Jia Zheng threw up his sleeves and left.

Previously, his aides were still discussing in various ways, but since he found out about the fire, Jia Zheng felt that he had to listen to the suggestion of one of the new aides, Mei Yi - on the contrary, instead of spending too much time talking about it, It is better to shut Jia Rong's mouth than to give benefits. Nowadays, Jia Rong is busy handling all the big and small affairs of the Ning Mansion.

Time is really tight.

It is said that the investigation of the Dali Temple case has made new progress. What if the whole family is implicated in the Ning Mansion because of the big house?

It is said that according to the crimes found today: occupying fertile land, ignoring human life, playing with the judiciary, fornicating foreign officials, etc., the lightest sentence is said to add a sentence of no scientific examination within three generations.That's life ruined.Not to mention the three tribes of Yi, the five tribes and so on.

Jia Zhen found Jia Rong who was busy "running" outside.

Jia Rong was furious: "You can say what you want, anyway, if my father can't get out, you don't have to worry about it! Anyway, I will pull you as my back if I die."

"Look at your tone and stubborn appearance. It's a shame that you still use the law to return the matter to your own patriarch's direct branch. If you really want to do good for the family, you should break your arms to survive, keep the Jia family and restore the glory of the patriarch. opportunity." Jia Zheng invited Jia Rong, who looked like a frightened bird, to the private room of the teahouse, suppressed the irrational desire to punch someone, and said earnestly: "You have been running away for several months. , look at the relatives and friends in the past who were still willing to talk to you at the beginning, but then they all disappeared behind closed doors? Why?!"

Jia Zheng's words were a bit heavier, and he severely criticized: "It's not because your Ning Mansion is getting worse and worse. In order to get rid of your father, you went to pay back the debt owed by the state treasury, and suddenly offended the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty. Do you know?" Do you know?" The matter of arrears cannot be explained clearly in a few words, only one point, basically all civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty have borrowed money from the treasury, and the only ones who have not borrowed money are the new officials in the past ten years.Just to mention one, you can be offended to death if you haven't repaid the other borrowed money.

"This will only aggravate your father's crime! It will even put your whole family in jail, do you know that?!"

"Then..." Jia Rong bit her inner lip, tearing herself up in pain, and looked up at Jia Zheng, "Then...then what can I do?"

"We must take the overall situation into consideration first, I know you haven't..." Jia Zheng spoke eagerly, and before he could say the word "cultural", he heard the following staff cough and cough twice.

Mei Yi smiled gently: "Master, let me tell Uncle Rong the story of Concubine Yang."

"En." Jia Zheng nodded reservedly upon hearing this.

After Mei Yi introduced herself, she narrated all kinds of things about the Yang family after Concubine Yang became favored in the Tang Dynasty, "not only her direct sisters, but also her brothers were all high-ranking and well-paid, and her distant brother Yang Zhao, who was originally a mere businessman The rascal, also took on several roles as Concubine Yang became favored."

"But..." Jia Rong's eyes showed yearning and envy, but when she spoke, she said in a way that made things difficult, "So what about me? My Jia family started with a clean military service, how can I be called a nepotism?"

"Master Rong, you can't speak like that." Mei Yi continued to persuade: "As the saying goes, thunder, rain, and dew are all the emperor's grace. It is Jia Jiaxiu's blessing to have the opportunity to serve the emperor. He shared the emperor's worries and problems in the previous dynasty. , is to make the emperor happy, and the gentle smile of the women in the harem is also to make the emperor happy. Whether it is military exploits or nepotism, it’s just a different form of expression. The essence is for the emperor. The emperor is happy, the dragon body is healthy, Then he will be able to better plan for Jiangshan Sheji..."

Jia Zheng couldn't help but nodded while hearing this, it's indeed the truth!

"But……"

When Jia Zheng heard this, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said angrily, "Do you know the harm caused by the emperor's thunderous anger? Not to mention far away, it is close. For example, how did your grandfather's family lose? That was involved in the rebellion of King Zhongyi, and Jia Lian's grandfather's family was the same! They were all in the midst of defeat and seizing the throne, not to mention being exiled. Within the three generations of the family, three generations were not allowed to enter the official examination. The foundation of this century is So ruined!"

"Then..." Jia Rong trembled in fright, tears fell unknowingly, her voice was trembling, and she said, "Then...that's none of my business!"

Jia Zheng was very angry: "The bastard is not allowed to seek advice!"

"Hmph, you think I don't know, don't you just want this patriarch, tell you, I really want to pull you as a backing after I die." Arm, let yourself cry out loud.

Hearing the crying sound from outside the house, Mei Yi smiled: "Congratulations, master, the matter is about to be completed. I'm afraid that Master Rong is just a dead duck with a hard mouth. Let's find someone who can talk to him, and we can communicate with him for a while. And it was done."

"That's right." Jia Zhengjing listened to the distant crying, looked at Mei Yi with a face of trust, and said, "Thanks to Mr. for pointing me out."

"This is what I should do." Mei Yi still smiled gently.

Jia Zheng was also afraid of having long nights and dreamy dreams, so he had a rare quick turn. After sending someone to find Jia Qiang, he personally talked to them for a while in a courteous manner.Jia Qiang was so frightened that her complexion turned pale again and again, she hastily complied and agreed to make a deal.

"Master," Jia Qiang took advantage of the darkness to sneak into the inn where Jia Zheng is now, and whispered, "Master, the boy is really incompetent. Although he has touched Brother Rong one or two, he is afraid of losing his support. You will become prosperous in the future, but you will not save them. Therefore, I have a small request."

Seeing that victory was in sight, Jia Zheng squeezed his fists to suppress his anger without anyone saying anything, and asked kindly, "What request?"

"He wants 50 taels of silver. Now pay a deposit of 40 taels first. He will use this money to manage Uncle Zhen and the others." Jia Qiang said: "When the money is in hand, he will immediately go to the household department with the genealogy Change of nationality. As for the next 10 taels, it depends on whether you keep your promise."

"What?" Jia Zheng slammed the table, "50 taels, why doesn't he grab it?"

"He said... What is the difference between what you are doing now and taking advantage of the fire?" After speaking, Jia Qiang took a few steps away in fear, and looked at Jia Zheng cautiously.

Seeing this, Jia Zheng, who was so angry that his neck was red, gritted his teeth and said every word: "Is this really the request?"

"That's right, but Rong'er said that he was afraid of getting entangled with the Rong Mansion in the future. He didn't want the family property of the Rong Mansion, otherwise what would happen if the big house started a fight with him? He wants your private property, and the origin is clean." , the kind that the household department can check the tax account books, otherwise he is afraid of being cheated, what about the black-hearted money that lends money?"

Jia Zheng: "..."

Mei Yi, who was acting as a dog-headed military adviser, was in a trance when he heard the words.Are you happy?There is no such script at all?

"Qiang...Master Qiang, let the students say something more, even if it is 40, it is not a sum that can be taken out quickly. Is there some room for negotiation?"

"Then let me run errands for you?" Jia Qiang looked at Jia Zheng sincerely.

Mei Yi took a step forward, and kindly handed over a purse: "Please trouble Mr. Qiang."

When Jia Qiang left, Jia Zheng looked at the dancing flames and felt that the flames were shining with his black face, as if mocking him for not being decisive enough.

Jia Zheng gritted his teeth for a while, and said, "I had to deal with some gentlemen before. I can agree to this matter, but I absolutely cannot allow so much money. I hope that you will bother me a little bit."

"Then..." Mei Yi tried to maintain a smile on the corner of her mouth when she heard the words, and asked, "What is your bottom line, sir?"

"Try to keep the price as low as possible." Although he doesn't know much about vulgar things, he still understands the benefits of money.

Mei Yi nodded when she heard the words, and half an hour later, she saw Jia Qiang who was passing on the message and bargained with him.

Jia Qiang insisted unwaveringly: "Rong'er said, at least 39 taels."

"Master Qiang, as the saying goes, we support each other. Thinking back to the time when Rongning and Ningfu..." Mei Yi gave the general code, and finally said: "Just erase the leader, 30 taels."

"Then..." Jia Qiang looked puzzled, "I'll ask again."

Half an hour later, Jia Qiang came back again and said, "For the sake of our ancestors, Rong'er said to take the lead in erasing it. It's 39 taels, and one or two taels can't be less."

"Master Qiang, you need to persuade Master Rong more. Is money more important, or the opportunity to save his father? If the master becomes the patriarch, can he not help Master Zhen? Rather than offending the master because of money now, it's better." Come on, 20 taels."

"Wow, sir, you are bargaining..."

Jia Zheng listened happily.That is, offending him will not end well.

"I know Young Master Qiang can't make a decision, why don't you ask?" Mei Yi smiled.

"it is good."

Half an hour later, Jia Qiang panted, poured herself a cup of tea, and said, "My throat is dry, and Rong'er dared to force him with this important matter, so he gave it up! Anyway, we are going away." Nepotism, he suddenly thought that besides concubine Yang Guifei, there are Zhang brothers who are famous in the history. The famous male favorite. He asked himself that his small face looks good too!"

"And..."

Jia Qiang put down the teacup, and touched her face sadly: "He said that I am good-looking too. Our two brothers are in our youth, and we are much better-looking than some people who are old and yellow.

After these words fell, the room was instantly dead silent.

Jia Zheng stared straight at Jia Qiang for a while, staring at the face that was neither male nor female, slapping the table, grinding his teeth: "Okay, 39 taels will be 39 taels!"

Jia Qiang stood up and saluted like a woman: "Thank you, patriarch." With a smack, hahaha.
