The patriarch of the Red Mansion is so handsome

Not only the officials of the Ministry of Rites, but also the Luocha envoys who wanted to find fault also died down when they saw this, and Jia Zhen, who floated over when he was in the sea of ​​fire to confess his last words, could not help but appear in his mind, thinking about the relaxed and wanton appearance, his eyes sank It sank again, and the veins on the back of the hand burst out.Not to mention family grudges, as Rakshasa's envoy, he had to perform his duties, even though he did have some respect for Jia Zhen's strength.

But it's a pity that Da Zhou always likes to destroy the city wall by himself.

Thinking of the secret decree received on Zhou Lu, the Rakshasa envoy heaved a long sigh, and a stern look flashed in his eyes.He decided to immediately send someone to send a letter back to the country. The Raksha Kingdom must assist the prince of Dazhou to get rid of Jia Zhen, otherwise, in time, Jia Zhen will become a serious problem in their hearts.

With a plan in mind, the Rakshasa envoy bid farewell and left. Before leaving, he looked at Jia Zhen meaningfully, endured the pain and said forcefully: "I hope that the next time I see you, you can still be so lively." naive.

Jia Zhen brought tea to the guests, "It's natural, don't send it away."

"Heh." Seeing Jia Zhen's rebellious appearance, the Rakshasa envoy sneered and signaled his guards to carry the stretcher away.The accompanying officials of the Ministry of Rites naturally stood up and said goodbye together. Before leaving, they emphasized it again and again with a smile: "When we discuss the detailed regulations of the competition, I would like to ask Mr. Jia to give you some pointers."

"Of course." Jia Zhen smiled kindly.

Watching the backs of a group of uninvited guests walk up to the wall shadow, and then completely disappear in front of her eyes, Jia Zhen frowned involuntarily.The Rakshasa envoy almost has the classic quotes of Big Big Wolf written "I will definitely come back" all over his body, so he must guard against it.But the most urgent thing right now is not to think about what will happen to the Rakshasa envoy, but to settle the dinner first.

When she was full, Jia Zhen drank the last chicken soup contentedly, and burped comfortably.Then she turned her eyes to look at Jia Rong and Jia Qiang who had already put down the bowls and chopsticks. Jia Zhen looked at the two of them, but she was a little patient. When the personnel patrol and guard, they must cooperate with the Shuntian Prefecture police. As for the soldiers and horses patrolling the city or the troops of the Beijing camp, they don’t need to worry about it, and they don’t need to be curious about the topic of firefighting, understand? There is no need to gossip about the topic, understand?"

Jia Rong and Jia Qiang nodded emphatically.This point of speech has already been emphasized three times at the dinner table!

Seeing that the two really listened, Jia Zhen's expression softened a little.Even a fool can know that there must be someone planning behind the matter of Le Hotel.The mastermind will definitely not set fire to it and run away. Apart from other things, there will definitely be supporting public opinion.The most common one is Tianhuo, God is dissatisfied with today!

"There are still two days left before the end of the celebration. Watch the shift schedule. After you've been busy for a while, all the students will go hunting in autumn. I'll pay for it." Jia Zhen thought for a while, and then slowly added said a word.

His deputy commander is equivalent to the deputy director of the police, police, and bureau in later generations.However, he didn't plan to serve for a long time now, so he naturally obeyed the emperor's order and assisted in the management of security issues in Shuntian Mansion.Shuntian prefecture leads five prefectures and nineteen counties, among which Daxing and Wanping counties are Yiguo, which is Jing County.Not to mention the maintenance of order in the counties outside the capital, but within the capital, counting the three shifts and six houses in the two counties of Daxing and Wanping, the yamen servants and some soldiers, the number is not five hundred. 500 people, not to mention the corners of the entire capital, even the inner city is unevenly divided.Most of the outer city is managed by soldiers and horses.

How can there be no soldiers?Because of his own plan, it is not easy to ask the important person in the capital's army and horse department directly after weighing it.After all, Ninetowns soldiers and horses are also busy like dogs.As soon as he was airborne to ask for someone, maybe a lot of troubles would be involved.It's not as good as their own well-trained hands.

Furthermore, the patriotic reputation of volunteers for the martial arts hall is also good.

"Father, we can find a way to ask someone to reimburse us." As the head of the martial arts school and the person in charge of finance, Jia Rong said without even thinking about it.You can't withdraw money from him!He calculated carefully, and even dared to limit the supply of his father's meals.

"Don't talk about what everyone is responsible for. Look at the two yuan meeting gift you received, how can we have the nerve to collect money to do things?" Jia Zhen said: "What kind of money can be cheeky enough to get sponsors, and what can't be there is still a way. Waiting for you Come back, let's talk about this topic again. Looking at the time now, it is also the most lively time at night. You go to work first."

"Okay." After Jia Rong and Jia Qiang responded, they also took their leave and left.

But before the two of them turned around to leave the mansion, they saw Dai Quan, who was dressed in plain clothes, quietly walking in.

"Dai Neixiang?" Jia Rong and Jia Qiang stepped forward in unison, saluted respectfully, and looked at people with a look of surprise on their faces.

Facing the stunned expressions of the two, Dai Quan didn't care to exchange a few words, and solemnly announced the emperor's oral order, asking Jia Qiang to take the troupe in Jia's martial arts hall to teach other troupe members, and immediately rehearse for the performance of "Amazing My Ancestor" .

"Of course it's no problem." Jia Zhen invited Dai Quan who was panting to sit down, handed him a cup of tea, put on a look of puzzlement, and said respectfully: "I hope Eunuch Dai can give me some advice, how can I do this?" Sudden rehearsal?"

"Enter some entertainment for the common people." Dai Quan took a sip from the teacup and replied with a smile, but didn't say anything because of it, only urged Jia Qiang.

Jia Qiang glanced at Jia Zhen, and couldn't help giving her a thumbs up.Sure enough, as his uncle expected, the emperor also wanted to divert the people's gossip.

After Jia Zhen nodded her head, Jia Qiang smiled, looked at Dai Quan, and said, "I hope Eunuch Dai can rest assured that the leader of Laixi Class has contacted me in private. I will carry it for Uncle Zhen to the martial arts hall." In the name of propaganda, it is natural."

Hearing this, Dai Quan had a rare smile on his brow and eyes, and said goodbye and left.

As soon as the people left, Jia Zhen raised her brows and looked at Jia Qiang, who looked like a weak Liu Fufeng, and said worriedly: "Qiang'er, when you go to rehearse the play, be careful and bring two special guards to follow you. Our Ning Manor In this lineage, you are the weakest, even Jia Yu is more powerful than you."

Let Dai Quan come forward to tell them in person, and from the side can also be a little more positive. There are really some villains secretly guiding public opinion.Therefore, as the "propaganda ambassador" appointed by the emperor, he was afraid that Jia Qiang would be caught in the dark.

The corners of Jia Qiang's mouth twitched: "Jane...Uncle Zhen, don't worry. Although I can only fly with eagles, I still understand the principle of safety first, and I carry chili powder with me." Even if this chili powder Gadgets such as body protection were designed for his little aunt Jia Yu.After all, the brat let go as soon as he hit the street, even if he was accompanied by servants.As a life-saving expert, Uncle Zhen asked his little aunt to bring some first aid and self-defense devices with her.

Jia Zhen said in a deep voice: "It's good to have a sense of protection. Don't think that I don't know. Before you were happy to enter the palace to avoid exercise. Now a big man relies on chili powder. After the matter is over, you can practice with Jia Amnesty Let's practice." He saw that Jia Qiang really had some talent for the job of "director", and he really liked it, so he didn't try to dissuade her.

Jia Qiang obediently bowed her head and admitted her mistake.

"Then act separately!" Jia Zhen waved her hand: "If there is any emergency, come to Shuntian Mansion to find me!"

Jia Rong and Jia Qiang both said hello.

Not to mention how busy Jia Rong and Jia Qiang were, when Jia Zhen arrived at Shuntian Mansion, she saw that the mansion was brightly lit, as bright as day, and compared to the silence of the day, there were only two pitifully small yamen servants guarding the house. There were many more people, running in and out.

In the second hall, the general judge of Shuntian Mansion, the head catcher, and others are surrounding Bao Mian and telling about the big and small things that happened today.

"My lord, I took Huo Dingbing to check the auspicious vats in various places in the inner city, such as restaurants, brothels, and Chu halls. There are about [-] auspicious vats with no water in them, and the water in a hundred or so vats is turbid and smelly. Circumstance requirements. This is the list of this investigation, please have a look."

"Master Bao, we have already interviewed the storyteller, the troupe master, etc., but there are still rumors in the public opinion."

"My lord Bao, some envoys from foreign countries can't understand the language when they are shopping, and they have caused a lot of trouble."

"Master Bao..."

All the way in, Jia Zhen listened to reports of various contents, ranging from the most basic fight against fraud during festivals, to the fire prevention of adjustments and investigations based on the latest current events.Just listening to Jia Zhen makes my brain hurt.As soon as she stepped into the threshold of the gate of the second hall, Jia Zhen looked at Bao Mian, who was surrounded by stars, and saw that the person was painted white under the light, and the whole person was like a paper man, as weak as a stick. Fingers can strangle.

"Cough cough" cleared her throat twice, and Jia Zhen went straight inside and said, "Master Bao, are you trying to delay my resignation by changing the law? Or do you want to change a set of furniture for Shuntian Mansion?" ?”

Upon hearing the second half of Jia Zhen's words, the master, who had personally experienced Jia Zhen's trial, immediately had a painful expression on his face.After the trial was over, when he was sorting out the case, he found that the desktop was cracked!You must know that Shuntian Prefecture is the capital, and the material for making the koan is rosewood!

Roaring in his heart, but when Jia Zhen walked with the wind and sat down next to Bao Mian aggressively, with a big horse and a golden knife, she looked like a local bandit, the master swallowed nervously.In fact, if you compare them with fellow sufferers, they just have a crack.At least it's not completely broken.I heard that there is a big crack in the lobby of Honglu Temple, the width and length can be seen with the naked eye!

However, it seems that there is news circulating that the Minister of Rites directly makes people not need to mend it, and it can be regarded as "interesting news" and told to the envoys of Fanbang in the future.

But...the public case in the government office failed!All the repair costs of the yamen have to be reported to the Ministry of Households for approval, and it is not acceptable to pay for it privately.

While thinking, the master silently turned his eyes to look at Bao Mian.

Naturally, Bao Mian also heard the bad news. He glanced sideways at Jia Zhen who was sitting next to him. Hearing the strong meaning of "threat" in the words, his already pale complexion turned even paler. Honestly explained: "I..."

Feeling that his throat was a bit dry, dull and hoarse, Bao Mian took a sip from the cup of tea, moistened his throat, tried to keep his voice stable, and said slowly: "I slept too much today, and I couldn't fall asleep after nightfall. That's why I thought that I could deal with some things first, so as not to pile up and stay up all night to deal with them in the future, but I would be tired again."

"Hearing your words are soft, your eyes are dull, and you still look dazed when you look at it. What good is it to talk about fighting against illness?" Jia Zhen looked at Bao Mian, who was still flushed and red, and straightened. Bai Dao: "What I hate the most is your kind of thinking. It's like showing off that you are very capable. If you are sick, you should take good care of your body first. People who don't even know how to cherish their own bodies talk about their parents. "

Jia Zhen raised her hand and wiped her short short hair, and said in a deep voice, "Even if you have a heart to petition for the people, what if you die young? It's better to live a long life and continue to serve the people."

"Don't think I'm being blunt." Jia Zhen glanced around at the Shuntian Mansion official, whose complexion changed slightly, and even sullen, and rolled her eyes: "Isn't this the truth? If it weren't for you, Mr. Bao, What my son admires, the Lord will not persuade him so patiently. It has nothing to do with me."

Officials of Shuntian Mansion: "..."

"Thank you Master Jia for your kindness." Looking at Jia Zhen's unscrupulous appearance, Bao Mian didn't feel that Jia Zhen had evil intentions and was arrogant.After all, since Jia Zhen's prodigal son turned back, he has had a lot of contact.Jia Zhen has good intentions, but in his bones, there is disdain, or indifference to everything in the world, and he hangs up high that it has nothing to do with himself.It's just that when eating, there will be a touch of enthusiasm.The kind that comes from the heart is even more sincere than Jia Zhen's loyal and patriotic words.

Thinking of Jia Zhen's words and deeds since she changed, Bao Mian felt more and more interested in exploring people.After all, since he accepted Jia Zhi as his apprentice, not only did Jia Yu visit Jia Zhi occasionally, but Jia Rong also visited Jia Zhi every three days.In the name of caring for Jia Lian's daughter, all she told him was about Jia Zhen.

Intentionally or unintentionally, she was forced to accept Jia Zhen's many amazing feats.

Thanking Jia Zhen earnestly, Bao Mian's voice was not as steady and indifferent as before, and he said with a strong nasal voice: "I'm sitting in a meeting, and when Xiao Li comes to report how the matter with Queen Qianxiang is over, I will go back to rest. "

"Queen Qianxiang?" Jia Zhen poured out a cup of tea and asked, "What's the matter?"

The master heard the weakness in Bao Mian's words, but hurriedly replied: "The Queen bought uncomfortable rouge and gouache in Qunfang Pavilion, and brought people to make trouble. The officials from the Ministry of Rites went to negotiate, and the shopkeeper behind him also had a background, so she made a fuss in the yamen Here we come. Forgive the old man and let him..."

Speaking of this, the master stuttered a little, and suddenly realized that he had not accepted the facts and could not state it.

"Mr. Xi asked Mr. Song to come forward to coax the little girl." Bao Mianyun said lightly, "then the queen was calm and decided to give Qunfang Pavilion a chance to clarify the reason."

Jia Zhen smiled and drank tea, and Bao Mian continued to listen to Tong San's report on the latest developments in the capital this day.After three incense sticks of time, Xiao Li in Bao Mian's mouth was talking back and forth: "Master Bao, Lord Jia, Queen Qianxiang accepted Qunfang Pavilion's apology, and now Mr. Xi is visiting the brothel with others and listening to ditties. "

Jia Zhen was in a daze.

Bao Mian accidentally dropped the teacup, his mind went blank, and his only thought was: "Fortunately, Xiaozhi is my apprentice." Jia... Jia Shen is more outspoken than Jia Zhen.

"It doesn't matter whether a cat is white or black, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat. Once this matter is settled satisfactorily, you don't care whether you used a beauty trick or a beauty trick." Jia Zhen waved her hand and urged: "Go back and rest quickly. Then Who, are you a catcher? Hurry up and help Master Jia back."

Jia Zhen pointed to the arrester who was the most annoyed to draw his sword when he mentioned "died young", and said.

Zhang Butou, who was named, was obedient and hurried to help Bao Mian.

Seeing this, Bao Mian didn't say anything else, stood up and nodded his thanks: "Then please trouble Mrs. Jia."

"You don't need to thank me, anyway, it's your subordinates who are going to solve the problem, so I'll just watch quietly." Jia Zhen said frankly, "I'll take a bowl of Shuntian Mansion's supper."

Hearing this, Bao Mian heaved a sigh of relief, but when he was about to pass the threshold, he couldn't help turning his head and said: "I hope Master Jia will be merciful, as long as you are merciful." As for Jia Zhen's merciless mouth, he At this moment, my head is dizzy, and I can't mind it anymore.

Jia Zhen repeated patiently: "I'll just watch quietly."

Bao Mian was almost impatient to meet the people, he put his hands on the table and turned to leave in a hurry.He was afraid that if he was one step too late, the Eight Immortals table would be scrapped immediately.

In the house, even though Jia Zhen and Bao Mian had emphasized it several times, the emperor's will was in front, and the officials of Shuntian Mansion still couldn't ignore Jia Zhen.Even if it's a formality, the government affairs are still better than Jia Zhen.Therefore, Tong San restrained his trembling hands and handed over the collected records to Jia Zhen.

Jia Zhen pinched the case records that were almost as thick as her little finger, and gritted her teeth: "Why are there so many messes? It's not easy for you to spend the holidays."

Tong San smiled wryly: "Thank you, Mr. Jia, for your understanding. Compared with the past, today is considered a great kindness." This is still filtered out and belongs to the jurisdiction of the county government.

"You have worked hard, I will cheer you on!" Jia Zhen looked at the second in command of Shuntian Mansion sincerely and in awe.Regardless of ancient times or modern times, grassroots civil servants are all screws, wherever they need to be screwed.

Of course, he is now an upgraded version of this "screw", a luxurious brick!

Jia Zhen flipped through the records of the case file page by page, and felt that little stars were shining in her eyes.Waiting for Master Tongpan to go to rest, Jia Zhen waited for the assistant minister who came to take over, smelling the smell of breakfast, and after finishing the meal, she told others that she didn't mind it, so she went directly to the duty room to be fascinated.

Meanwhile, Bao Mian had a good night's dream.After waking up, although I still felt a little groggy, but compared to the previous two days when I was light-headed, I can still be considered steady on my feet.After Bao Mian washed, he looked at the medicinal food and breakfast brought by the servants, and at the still steaming steamed buns, and was slightly taken aback.

He suddenly thought of Jia Zhen eating buns one by one after fighting the fire all night, and for some reason, the long sigh of Jia She when he was watching the trial came to his mind.

The word "too bitter" still seemed to echo in his ears, and Bao Mian thought of the red blood in his eye circles when Jia Zhen was talking about education, and felt a strange emotion in his heart, agreeing with Jia She's words.Ever since Jia Zhen's prodigal son turned back, he has indeed squeezed himself too tightly.

Thinking about it, Bao Mian couldn't help feeling heavy in his heart. After finishing the porridge buns and the medicinal diet, he set off to search for someone in Qianya.Hearing that Jia Zhen had finished her breakfast and was catching up on sleep, she couldn't help going to the duty room.Compared with the rear yamen's house, the duty room is a bit crude, let alone Jia Zhen's house.The bed, is nothing more than a wooden hard board bed.And in order to prevent the two people on duty from falling asleep, this bed is also small and narrow, and only one person can lie on his side.And because it is a duty room, in order to be able to hear the sound quickly, there is no door closed, not even a window.

Waiting outside the corridor, Bao Mian looked at Jia Zhen who was sleeping soundly with one foot on the ground, her eyes flickered, and she ordered someone to get a small brocade quilt from the back office.

Feeling the smoothness of the hands, Bao Mian sighed.This person is at home and is well-clothed and well-fed, so he is really too harsh on himself now.

Unfolding the brocade quilt Jia Amnesty gave, Bao Mian slowed down his breathing, and tiptoed into the duty room cautiously.Just as he reached out to approach Jia Zhen, Bao Mian inadvertently felt that he was blown to the ground by a gust of wind, and then his neck felt cold, his whole body was terrified, his mind went blank, and he exclaimed: "Ah!"

Jia Zhen felt someone approaching, her body was ahead of her consciousness, and she started to defend before opening her eyes.He directly raised his hand to freeze the wind and turned it into a wind blade, wanting to kill him with one blow.Fortunately, Jia Zhen opened her eyes and saw who was coming when she was killing Bao Mian's neck. She immediately made a 90-degree turn, raised her hand and swung the knife towards the wall.

Bao Mian was still in shock, looking at the golden glow projected by the rising sun in the narrow duty room, with this light, he was clearly aware of Jia Zhen's murderous aura that jumped up before.

Jia Zhen looked back quietly.He has been in the Red Mansion for more than two years, and this is the first time anyone has come so close.If it wasn't for his frequent training of luck and his ability to retract and release freely, Bao Mian's head would have fallen to the ground by now.

The two stared at each other for a long time, but finally Bao Mian was defeated and gasped, "I... I just saw that you didn't cover yourself with a quilt, and I was afraid that you would catch a cold."

"I didn't mean to disturb your sleep."

"Thank you, but I don't want it next time. I don't like people getting too close to me, especially when I'm sleeping." Jia Zhen explained when she saw that people were so good at admitting their mistakes.

"Don't worry, there will never be a next time." Bao Mian replied without hesitation.

The two people who didn't know that they would slap each other in the face in the future, looked at each other at this moment, and nodded solemnly, wishing to swear an oath to let the other party see their determination.
