The first paparazzi in the Red Chamber

Lin Ruhai's hand holding the letter froze, and asked Lin Chu to repeat what the sender had said.

"Is this the family of Mrs. Lin Ruhai who left her daughter in the capital regardless?" Lin Chu immediately repeated smoothly.

Lin Ruhai frowned suddenly, and nodded slightly, feeling that she lost face.

Seeing this, Lin Chu hurriedly scolded the messenger for being rude.

Lin Ruhai didn't say a word.

Lin Chu spat and continued to scold: "What's so great about sending a letter? How dare you speak such wild words and despise the master so much. I hate that I wasn't there at the time, otherwise I would have beaten their butts to bloom."

As Lin Chu said that, he rolled up his sleeves and acted like beating someone.

Lin Ruhai looked at Lin Chu with distaste, and scolded him for not being gentle.

Lin Chu kept his mouth shut and followed Lin Ruhai back to the main hall. After serving tea, he watched Lin Ruhai read the letter with cold eyes.

The handwriting on the envelope and the letter were indeed written by Daiyu.The content was mostly greetings, and then she was worried about his health, and she also reported her own safety. After all, nothing bad happened, and everything was happy.

Normally, Lin Ruhai would have no doubts after reading this letter, and would think that her daughter is doing well in the capital.But now Lin Ruhai felt that it was not a good taste, because he came to the messenger first and said that.No matter how I read this letter, I always feel that there is something missing.

The sender obviously meant something, meaning that Daiyu was not living comfortably in Beijing, but Daiyu didn't say anything bad in the letter, not even a complaint from her little daughter.

Lin Ruhai recalled that when Jia Min was ill, Daiyu was only four or five years old, and she served soup and medicine, being extremely filial.It should also be because she is too filial, even if she is suffering in the Rong Mansion at this moment, in order to make him feel at ease, she may not say anything in the letter, after all, it is to report good news and not bad news.

Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai felt sad and felt even more uncertain.

The daughter has such a delicate mind, and she thinks of him wholeheartedly.If because of his own negligence, he turned a blind eye to her and ignored her, wouldn't it be a loss of morality and benevolence, and a waste of being a father.

To be honest, when Lin Ruhai just heard Lin Chu convey the messenger's words, guilt and guilt naturally sprouted in his heart.What does this mean, when it comes to his daughter, he is indeed taking care of him, he doesn't even need others to criticize him, he feels guilty.

Perhaps it was true as the messenger said, he really had the suspicion of disregarding his daughter.

Although the letter in his hand was light, Lin Ruhai's heart was heavy.

He heaved a long sigh and closed his eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Chu, the housekeeper, knew that the master felt uncomfortable because of the letter.Maybe the eldest girl is not doing well in Rongfu.

Lin Chu also frowned fiercely and felt uncomfortable, thinking back to the exhortations he said while holding the master's hand when his wife died.He felt sad and uncomfortable, let alone the master.

Lin Chu pondered for a while, and then began to persuade Lin Ruhai, "Although the Rong Mansion is no longer what it used to be, they also said that the centipede is dead but not stiff, and the eldest girl will not suffer too much there. If you worry too much, if it’s really not possible, let’s go to the capital to bring the eldest girl back.”

Lin Ruhai's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he looked at Lin Chu: "What did you say?"

"Damn it, you're talking too much." Lin Chu slapped himself.

"I'm asking you, where did you hear that the Rong Mansion is dying and the centipedes are dead but not stiff?"

Lin Chu regretted so much, he thought that the master had already read this in the letter, but he never expected that he had made a slip of the tongue.Quickly knelt down and made amends to Lin Ruhai, "That day, I prepared thin wine and planned to have a drink with the accountant. I happened to meet Mr. Jia, so I got together and got together. Xing told us what he heard from his mouth."

Lin Chu then confessed that he had heard everything from Jia Yucun's mouth.

Lin Ruhai frowned and asked, "Leng Zixing?"

"It's the son-in-law of Zhou Rui, the second wife of Rongfu." Lin Chu hurriedly said.

Lin Ruhai was shocked.Since Leng Zixing is the son-in-law of Mrs. Wang's accompanying room, what he knows about the situation in the Rong Mansion is by no means hearsay, it must be fact.

Back then, when Lin Ruhai married Jia Min away, Duke Rong was still around, and the Rong Mansion was at the time when it was in full swing in the capital.For a long time, his impression of Rongfu has also stayed here. He never imagined that only a few years have passed, and Rongfu is already about to collapse.

It's all his fault that he was in the middle of it, and he forgot that love changes with things, things change and stars change, and even today he has never seen it clearly.Lin Ruhai felt that he was ashamed of his reputation as a flower hunter, and had read a lot of poetry and books in vain.He can't see the truth in this world as clearly as Leng Zixing.

Thinking about the poor daughter who was ruthlessly sent to Rongfu by him, and recalling the sarcastic words of the messenger, Lin Ruhai really felt ashamed and panicked, and deserved to be scorned and laughed at.

"It's not your fault, it's my negligence."

After letting Lin Chu get up, Lin Ruhai sighed, and then ordered Lin Chu to send someone to Haosheng to inquire about the current situation of the Rong Mansion.

After Lin Chu agreed, he left.

Lin Ruhai held his chin and calmed down for a while, then wondered who sent someone to the Lin residence to deliver the letter.

The sender must have something to do with Rongfu, otherwise his daughter's letter would not have been entrusted to them.He was an official with status in Yangzhou at least, and the messenger was entrusted by others, so it is reasonable to say that he would not make trouble for nothing and say something unkind, but the messenger deliberately said something sarcastic.Apparently, this sentence was intended for him. This person wanted to remind him that her daughter was not doing well in Rongfu.

Who is it?Lin Ruhai couldn't think of anything.At first he guessed it was Jia Zheng, but he turned it down.Jia Zheng is a man of good manners, he will definitely write politely and tactfully when he has something to say, and he will never pass on such a message.As for Jia Amnesty, Lin Ruhai felt it was even more impossible.

Two days later, Lin Chu heard some great news, and quickly reported back to Lin Ruhai: "It's a caravan returning from Beijing. Several people said that a book called "Secrets of Neighbors" has been published in the capital, which has a wide influence."

"What's so good about such trivial matters?" Lin Ruhai said puzzled.

"Master, don't worry, there's more to say. The first two issues of this book happened to be about the affairs of the Rong Mansion. The younger one made his own decisions and bought one for ten taels of silver." Lin Chu hurriedly bought the two copies. The book is presented.

After Lin Ruhai finished reading it, he heard Lin Chu talk about the death of the Xing family, the case of Xing Zhong, how the Rong Mansion changed, how the Changfang and the Erfang exchanged residences, and so on.

Everything surprised Lin Ruhai, and he took a deep breath.

"They said there is still No. 15 this month, but it's a pity that they are already on the way, so they don't know what will be written on it." Lin Chu said.

Lin Ruhai read the contents of the book again, frowning.He didn't understand who acted so boldly and dared to expose the scandals of officials and dignitaries.But the piles are so ugly that they should indeed be reviled.But writing things like this, the author is not afraid of being retaliated?Lin Ruhai was relieved when he heard that the author was a mysterious figure.I couldn't help being curious about the contents of the third and fourth issues of My Neighbor's Secret, so Lin Ruhai asked Lin Chu to find a way to buy them.

Lin Chu hurriedly agreed.

Not long after, Lin Chu spent another ten taels of silver, but what he bought was only the manuscript of the third issue of the secret story next door.Because the printed version of the third issue has already sold for 50 taels in Yangzhou City, and it is still very hard to find.

Lin Ruhai couldn't help sighing with emotion when he learned that the case of treason in Jindi actually happened because of this.

Half a month ago, the imperial court sent someone to expedite the notification. In the official document, the issue of Jindi was mentioned, but it was just a few simple summaries, and it did not mention that this matter was first disclosed by this book.Lin Ruhai couldn't help admiring the author of the book, what a powerful person he is, who can see through these things.At the same time, I also hate myself for being ignorant and ignorant. Someone who writes books with mediocre literary talents can still serve the country and speak for the people.However, he only felt at ease as his petty official in Yangzhou City. He did nothing but talk about it, and was ignorant. He only knew the news until now.

"Yangzhou is thousands of miles away from the capital city, and this book is only distributed in the capital city. We in Yangzhou city only started to talk about this a month ago. We didn't know about it before. Don't blame yourself, master." Lin Chu was just consoling, and then told the outside about the Rongfu. All evaluations were given to Lin Ruhai.

After Lin Ruhai finished asking, she was restless and worried about her daughter.At the beginning when he sent Daiyu to Rongfu, he wanted her to inherit the teachings of Jiamu, but he also thought that Rongfu was powerful and powerful, and that there were relatives and brothers who could support Daiyu in the future.But after listening carefully now, none of the children of Rongfu are promising, but they are very capable of causing trouble.Even Jia Zheng, who he thought was upright and kind, had a reputation of being 'fake and prudish', which is not reliable.

In terms of age, Jia's mother is older than him, and she will leave one day if she fails to make sure.When the time comes, Daiyu will be left alone, who will take care of her?Just relying on those few good-for-nothing Jia family children who might not even be able to fool Zhu?

Lin Ruhai became worried.

A few days later, the imperial court issued a notice.Jingying Jiedu envoy Wang Ziteng was sentenced to death for murder, and the others were not listed in detail.

At the same time, Lin Ruhai also learned that Jia She was entrusted by the emperor as an official to supervise the censor because he saved the fifteen princes.

Lin Ruhai lamented that his face was completely changed, and he only thought it was good luck about Jia Amnesty, and didn't think much about it.As for Wang Ziteng, he guessed that he was mostly convicted because of a political struggle that resulted in death.

Unexpectedly, in a few days, news of the fourth issue of "Secret Stories Next Door" came. Lin Ruhai was so frightened that he couldn't sit still anymore when he learned that Wang Ziteng was tortured and killed 38 girls.That Wang Ziteng is the elder brother of the daughter-in-law of the Rong Mansion, and the uncle of the grand-daughter-in-law, so he has such a character.

Why is there no parental upbringing, no sisters and brothers to support her, let her rely on her grandmother and uncles and sisters... Lin Ruhai recalled what she said to her daughter back then, and now she feels that she is slapping herself.

Lin Ruhai no longer hesitated, and immediately reported to the imperial court, requesting to come to Beijing to report on his duties.He must take his daughter back to Yangzhou and raise her by himself.

……

In the past two days, Jia Amnesty has been entangled by someone.

Since the release of the fourth issue of "Secrets of Neighbors", because everyone knows that the owner of Neighbor Xuan who sells this book is him, the third prince has been sending people to look for him, hoping to find out the whereabouts of the author from him.

Of course Jia Amnesty hid whenever he could, but after hiding a few times, he was finally blocked by the Lord at the gate of Rong Mansion today.

Muruijiong was dressed in dust and dust, obviously he had just returned from business outside Beijing.

He looked Jia She up and down with his hands behind his back, and said perfunctorily: "Congratulations to Mr. Jia for being the censor, and thank you for saving the fifteenth brother. This younger brother of the prince is self-willed and stubborn. I told him How many times have I told him not to go out and play around recklessly, but he just doesn't listen."

Jia Amnesty returned the greeting politely, and seeing that Muruijiong had no intention of leaving, he invited him to the Rong Mansion for a small seat.

As soon as the people in the Rong Mansion heard that the third prince was here, they put up all their spirits to serve him.After Wang Xifeng got the news, she hurriedly went to inform Jia's mother, and praised the old man by the way.

Mother Jia was naturally happy. Since the death of Duke Rong, the Rong Mansion has not had a truly noble royal family visit for more than ten years.Mother Jia felt that her face was bright, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, so she told the girls about it.

Yingchun heard that it was the third prince who took the initiative to meet her father, so she felt an indescribable sense of pride, and even opened her mouth to speak happily, feeling that she had a little more confidence.

Tanchun complimented Yingchun again and again, and said to Xichun and Daiyu: "She is really lucky. The elder always misses her. Knowing that she likes the sweet-scented osmanthus cakes from Xiayanglou, he specifically asked the mother-in-law to buy him a cake the next day. Back. I was very envious when I heard about it.”

"Osmanthus cake? What's new, take it out quickly, let us try it too." Daiyu said.

Yingchun glared at Yingchun and scolded her for being fast-talking, "It's just ordinary dim sum. I can't even bring it to you. If I told you that you all like it, I would definitely send it to you as soon as possible." After Yingchun finished speaking, she called someone Bring the sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

Daiyu tasted one, but didn't do anything else.Tanchun also tasted it, and only felt that the taste was special, but it was not so delicious.Xichun liked it so much that she ate three yuan in a row.

"Look, let me just say, it's an ordinary thing, can you share the good things with you?" Yingchun sighed.

"The taste is good, but our tongues are thick, so we can't taste the delicate taste." Tanchun smiled shyly.

Daiyu: "I think it's delicious, but it's a pity that I don't have an appetite, so I don't want to eat more."

"It's quite delicious." Xichun smiled, and stuffed another piece into his mouth.

Yingchun nodded her forehead, "Then if you like to eat, I will ask my mother-in-law to buy an extra portion and send it to you."

Xichun was so happy that she hugged Yingchun's arm and refused to let go, and kept thanking her.

Tanchun took the opportunity to look around, then picked up the paintings on the Yingchun table to comment on, and said many compliments.It attracted Daiyu and Xichun to watch the excitement.Daiyu only glanced at it, but said nothing.Xichun was still young and didn't know anything, and just now she got the benefit of Yingchun, so she naturally agreed with Tanchun and followed her to praise her second sister.

"After eating other people's snacks, my mouth becomes sweet." Daiyu couldn't help but said sourly.

Tanchun refused to accept it, "Look at what you said, it seems that we agreed because of the benefits, and the painting is really good."

Daiyu glanced at Tanchun and shut up.

Yingchun was secretly happy, she blushed slightly after being praised, and after a few words of humility, she asked them to play chess together.

Besides, after Jia Amnesty and Muruijiong exchanged pleasantries, they heard Muruijiong explain his purpose of coming, and he was indeed looking for the author of "Secret Stories Next Door".

"Have you seen him?" Murray asked.

Jia Amnesty did not directly deny it, but said, "There is a middleman passing on the message."

Murui was a little disappointed, but this was also consistent with the results of the previous inquiries, so he didn't question anything.Only Jia She was asked to detail how he corresponded with the author.

Jia Amnesty hesitated for a while, and fell silent.

Muruijiong immediately turned cold.

Mu Ruijiong's entourage rushed towards Jia She and said fiercely: "You are so courageous, how dare you not answer the third hall's question in person?"

Jia Amnesty bowed slightly, maintaining etiquette, but remained silent.

"Jia Enhou!" Muruijiong patted the table again, he didn't expect that such a small person as Jia She would dare to challenge him, "I know you want to keep your benefactor a secret, but you should think about it, this is grateful Which choice is more sensible, or offending the prince."

Jia Shefang said, "Hang a white lantern at the back door and tie a bundle of straw, and someone will contact you."

Muruijiong: "Is it only your mansion, or other people's mansions?"

"I only know that I am like this, others don't know." Jia She said.

"In that case, you should immediately order someone to hang up the lantern." Muruijiong ordered.

Jia Amnesty complied, and then said to Muruijiong: "If that's the case, I'm afraid it will be difficult for His Highness the Third Highness to see the scholar."

"Why?" Murui stared at Jia Amnesty, his face full of dissatisfaction.

"Third Highness must have watched the first two issues of "Secret Stories Next Door"."

Murray nodded accordingly.

"From this, we can know that he has spies in my house. The whole Rong Mansion already knows about the Third Highness's visit here. I'm afraid we can't hide it from the scholar at this moment." Jia She continued.

"It's just right that I can't hide it. If he knows my identity, he will meet me." Murui said proudly.

Jia Amnesty fell silent.

Mu Ruijiong saw that Jia She hadn't finished speaking, and told him to say everything he knew.

Jia Amnesty: "The news in the capital has not escaped his eyes and ears, let alone His Highness the Third Highness who has gone to great lengths to find him. If the author really wants to see you, I'm afraid he would have found a way to contact His Highness long ago."

Mu Ruijiong felt that what Jia She said was very reasonable. He thought that he could finally find someone, but now a basin of cold water was poured on him, and his whole brows were knotted together.However, he was not reconciled after all. Originally, he only thought that the author was a little talented person, so when he learned that Song Xi might have contact with him, he refrained from looking for him again.Who would have thought that he could predict the case of treason in Jin so accurately.Such a talent, Murui Jiong didn't want to let her go, even if he couldn't get her, he would destroy her!

Murui asked Jia Shezhao to hang a lantern, and from now on, people in Rongguo Mansion, including Jia She, were forbidden to go out.

Jia Amnesty agreed one by one.

Of course Mu Ruijiong didn't believe Jia Amnesty, so he left more than a dozen guards in the Rong Mansion before leaving.

After Zhu Mao took the third prince's people to various exits in Shourong Mansion, he came back angrily and complained to Jia She.

"Why do you ask the master these things, and don't let the people who restrict Rongfu go out? It's too much."

"Let him do it," Jia She said.

Seeing that the master is so calm, Zhu Mao knew that the master must have a way to deal with it, so he asked: "Could the master want to participate in the impeachment of him?"

Jia She cast a cold glance at Zhu Mao, "He is the prince after all, and I am a soft-spoken person, so I'm afraid it won't work if I directly participate in the book."

"Then what should we do?" Zhu Mao worried.

"I have my own way, you don't have to worry about it." Jia She slightly raised the corner of his mouth, it doesn't matter if he can't go out now, tomorrow will be wonderful.

Jia Amnesty took a sip of tea and was about to read a book when a woman came to report the situation.

After the mother-in-law and Jia She reported the situation on Jia Mu's side, they also relayed to Jia She the gossip the girls had said in the house.

Jia Amnesty then asked the woman what was going on in Yingchun's house.

"Miss Lin was tired, so she went back first. The fourth girl also left later. The third girl was still in the room of the second girl, and the two chatted very well."

Jia She got up and ordered the woman to pass a message to Wang Xifeng, "Tell her to bring the second girl to settle accounts with the housekeeper when she is free."

The mother-in-law promised to go.

Jia Amnesty went straight to Yingchun's residence.

When Yingchun heard that her father was coming, she hurried out to greet her.Tanchun was also there, saluted Jia Amnesty politely, and said a few beautiful words.

Jia Amnesty smiled, asked Tanchun to be rewarded with a few golden melon seeds, and sent her back.With his hands behind his back, Jia Amnesty ran to the table and looked at Yingchun's painting.

"The painting is not very good." Yingchun pursed her lips, wishing to take a look at Jia She, and said shyly.

"It's not very good."

Jia She's words made Yingchun's smile freeze on her face, and her eyes were covered with mist.

"Why, do you still have to ask your father to make up lies and praise you? When it comes to chess skills in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you are the most outstanding among the sisters. This hobby is good, training your brain and cultivating your temper. And your paintings are really not very good , you should know in your own mind how capable you are compared to your sisters."

Only then did Yingchun's expression improve slightly, and he nodded to Jia She and said, "Third Sister's painting skills are the most exquisite. Sister Lin's is also good, delicate and delicate, but I am the worst."

"You should recognize yourself in this way, and remember to associate too much with those who talk too fancy."

Yingchun was ignorant and nodded in confusion.

Jia She continued: "Friendship among sages is as plain as water, not vain. Only with such a heart-to-heart will you be able to take care of you and extend a helping hand when you encounter danger in the future. On the contrary, it will not be the case."

Yingchun nodded in agreement, after seeing her father off, she was still a little dazed.When I was lying on the couch in the evening and preparing to rest, I suddenly realized that Tanchun had just praised his paintings so generously.

She was really happy to be complimented at that moment, and for a moment she secretly wondered why Tanchun was so enthusiastic about herself today.Yingchun carefully recalled that Tanchun used to treat her in a normal way, neither cold nor indifferent, even though she is an elder sister, but she is more powerful when talking normally.But ever since his father was appointed supervisory censor, Tanchun treats himself much warmer than before.Sometimes when she casually said a non-important word, she would be praised by Tanchun.Today is also the same, it just so happened that the third prince came to the door today and made friends with his father... After Yingchun thought about this, she became a little angry and tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep.

The next day, Wang Xifeng came to find Yingchun early in the morning and asked her to follow him to order some hair, and then send those housekeepers who were waiting for an answer.

It's the first time to welcome the spring, and I don't know anything.She sat at the side, drinking tea, and watching how Wang Xifeng talked to those women.

During the whole morning, Yingchun saw that Lian's second sister-in-law had sent a dozen or so mothers-in-law back.Those women's mouths are as if they have been smeared with honey. They have sweet mouths and are very good at complimenting others, but they say so much for the sake of being lazy.

Lian's second sister-in-law has seen through this for a long time, she talks nonsense when she sees people, she talks nonsense when she sees ghosts, she handles things unequivocally, and she dismisses those difficult wives very simply and neatly.

Yingchun really opened his eyes, and thinking about what his father warned him yesterday, he really felt that people should not just listen to those exaggerated rhetoric when communicating with each other.

Yingchun immediately remembered the lesson in her heart, and after she came out from Wang Xifeng's place, she went to find Daiyu.

……

Today is Asahi, logically speaking, all officials above the fourth rank in Beijing should be in the court class if there is no accident.

Jia Amnesty did not come.

It just so happened that someone mentioned the case of Wang Ziteng in court, and in the eyes of everyone, this matter had nothing to do with Jia Amnesty.But the emperor knew in his heart that this was done by the talents he specially called into the court.The emperor complacently searched for Jia Amnesty among the officials, but he was not there.

The emperor was unhappy, and asked about Jia Amnesty's whereabouts, but no one knew.

"This is too absurd. Just after being appointed as an official, he was absent from the early court for no reason. This is clearly a contempt for the holy grace, and he did not take the father into his eyes." Muruijiong could not understand Jia She's indifferent behavior as early as yesterday. Pai, now that he has the opportunity, he will naturally add insult to injury.

The emperor looked at Song Xi and saw that he had nothing to say, so he was dissatisfied and sent someone to the Rong Mansion to investigate clearly, "If Jia She didn't die of illness and died in bed, call me here!"

After leaving the court, the emperor left Song Xi to review the memorials in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

After a while, someone came back saying that Jia Amnesty had arrived.

The emperor was not in a hurry to see him, and while reviewing the memorial with a cinnabar pen, he asked Jia Amnesty the reason why he could not go to court.

Dai Quan replied in embarrassment: "Back to the emperor, it was the people of the Third Highness who stopped Jia Yushi from going out."

"what!"

The emperor dropped the memorial in his hand and hurriedly ordered Jia She to have an audience.

The emperor immediately exempted Jia Amnesty from the ceremony, and asked him to explain the story quickly.

Jia She then explained the reason why the Third Prince made a sudden visit yesterday to investigate the identity of the scholar, "In order to prevent people from the Rong Mansion from going out to spread news, the Third Highness left people to guard the gates of the Rong Mansion and prohibited everyone from entering or leaving. Get up early and prepare to go to court, but they also stopped me. I dare not conflict with the third prince's people, so in desperation..."

"Okay, you don't need to talk. If the third child forces you not to go to court, of course you have nothing to do with him." The emperor was furious, and immediately wanted to summon Muruijiong.

Mu Ruijiong didn't know why yet, after greeting the emperor cheerfully, seeing Jia Amnesty here, he even wanted to criticize him.

The emperor picked up a memorial and hit Muruijiong.

"You bastard just now has the face to say that Jia Aiqing is contemptuous of the imperial power. Who the hell is going to stop my ministers from going to court, huh? My good son, you can't wait to lead my ministers , share my prestige, and act as I please!"

After Mu Ruijiong found out what had happened, he was so frightened that he pissed his ass, and quickly knelt down, crying bitterly to explain his grievances to the emperor.He really didn't have the guts to stop his courtiers from going to court.Blame it on him when he ordered this matter yesterday, he talked too hard and forgot that today is the Asahi.Muruijiong also hated those guards, they didn't know how to be flexible, knowing that Jia Amnesty would go to court, they dared to stop him from going out.

In fact, how did he know that Jia Amnesty went out in the dark before dawn.The guards only thought that Jia Amnesty was going out secretly to pass on a message, so they stopped him back.

"You are still wronged. When you wronged someone, did you ever think about how wronged he was!" The emperor yelled at Murui, and immediately grounded Murui for half a year, asking him to reflect.

Song Xi: "Your Majesty, is this six months too long? After all, the third prince has just established his prestige among the courtiers..."

"You don't need to intercede with him!" When the emperor heard that Song Xi also mentioned that he had "prestige", he became even more angry, and directly extended the confinement period to one year.

Song Xi stopped talking.

Murui knew that it would be useless to cry and beg, and would only annoy his father even more, so he had to honestly thank him, expressing that he would reflect on his mistakes and admit his mistakes.

Seeing this, the emperor calmed down a little and sent him away.

Jia Amnesty hurriedly made a gesture to accuse him, the emperor would not allow him to do this.

"It's not your fault. After the prince left, the third child has become arrogant and overbearing. It's been a long time." The emperor turned his back in anger, and fell silent with his hands behind his back.

After Jia Amnesty submitted his memorial silently, he withdrew with Song Xi.

"You are so courageous, you dare to deal with the third prince." After leaving the palace, Song Xi spoke to Jia She.

"His Highness, he did not wrong him." Jia She said.

Song Xi sneered, "This fellow has been rampant for more than a day or two, and his attitude towards me is extremely arrogant, let alone towards you. I'm afraid that after today's incident, you will be hated by him."

"If there is no matter today, he treats me well. I don't think there is any difference, but now he is relieved." Jia She explained.

Song Xi thought about the same reason, and said with a smile: "There is no need to be afraid of him. I just wanted to scare you. If you are afraid, I can still persuade you to show off my ability. Now it is a miscalculation. No, it was a miscalculation again."

"I also want to thank Mr. Song for his extra love. In the future, I really need to ask Mr. Song to take care of me. Help each other, and this day will last forever." Jia She cupped his hands and bowed to Song Xi.

"What are you doing, why are you so polite all of a sudden?" Song Xi asked puzzled.

Jia Amnesty: "As Master Song saw in the court just now, I offended the third prince, so I chose to stand, and I naturally went to Master Song's side."

Song Xi looked at Jia Amnesty in surprise, and suddenly laughed, "You won't stand in vain. In fact, if you don't stand now, you will always be by my side in the future."

Jia She secretly observed Song Xi's demeanor, saw that he was determined to win, and made no comment with a cold face, and then said goodbye to Song Xi.

Song Xi saw that Jia She had doubts about what he said just now, so he didn't point out the argument, but changed the subject and said, "Let's go now? I thought you would be interested in hearing about the Minister of Dali Temple."

"Then go to the neighbor's house." Jia She said.

After the two arrived at the private room on the second floor of the neighbor's house, Jia Amnesty prepared his notebook and poured a cup of tea for Song Xi himself.

"Sure enough, as you expected earlier, Dali Siqing is also an uncle. I don't know how the case was tried. Anyway, the witnesses you counted have been assassinated one after another in the past few nights. Fortunately, I have already sent people to secretly Protecting them, but not allowing them to fulfill their wishes. Now the assassins have been captured by me, and they are secretly imprisoned in the dungeon in Gyeonggi Province."

"There are still dungeons in Gyeonggi Prefecture?" Jia She has heard of the dungeons and has been there before. This is the first time he knows about this dungeon.

"Of course, there is no one in the Shoushan District of Jidian. Occasionally, confidential matters are investigated, but anyone involved in the case must be detained in the dungeon to ensure that the news will not be leaked."

"I think it's Wang Ziteng's business. I've taught you a lesson. I haven't found anyone who poisoned you yet?" Jia She asked.

Song Xi shook his head.

"What kind of poison?" Jia She asked again.

Song Xi: "Very common poison."

"Choosing this kind of poison is really clever. It's so common that anyone can get it." Jia She sighed and wrote down the basic information he heard in the booklet.

Jia Amnesty then asked Song Xi if he could find any clues about Dali Siqing from those assassins.

Song Xi nodded, "The person who gave the order is the confidant of Dali Siqing."

Jia She nodded and asked him what he planned to do.

"First take the cronies, provide solid evidence, and then take people." Song Xi replied patiently.

Jia Amnesty nodded, wrote again, and then said to Song Xi: "I will trouble you to lend Fang Zhenglu the statement after the review of this case is completed, and copy it down."

"Why, do you plan to continue this case in the next issue?"

Jia Amnesty: "Not only this one, the follow-up of Wang Ziteng's case, Lu Changqing's confession will be continued. Now readers not only want to hear the story, but also want to trace the source and find out the cause. Wang Ziteng is dead. Clean, not enough to pay for the sins he committed during his lifetime. Then use his case as an example, let the world scold him, and then from Mrs. Li, step-son Wang Shengjing, kidnappers, and those poor girls who were kidnapped , let the world get some understanding and warnings."

"You're all right, but I still feel that your next book seems to be filling up." Song Xi squinted at him, "You don't want to check the matter of King Qi?"

"This is not the fifth issue, it's for the NO.15 next month. I'm going out in two days, setting up the news network. I don't have time to prepare for the fifth issue, so I'll post this first. It's hard to guarantee in the future Something can happen every month, and it is written in "Secrets of Neighbors", and it will be replaced by this method. If there is something to do, a new issue will be published, and if there is nothing to do, write some follow-up events for everyone to see.

Now I roughly wrote a part of it, and Fang Zhenglu wrote the rest.As for King Qi, he will wait until the end of the year to choose his concubine, so he is not in a hurry.Besides, Prince Qi's Mansion is very well-regulated, and my spies don't have imperial permission, so how can they jump up and down casually in it, everything has to be investigated slowly. "

After Jia Amnesty explained this, he said goodbye to Song Xi, who was busy going back and preparing his luggage for departure.

Song Xi also expected that Jia Amnesty would need to visit the news network in person, so he asked him when he was going to leave and wanted to see him off.

"I can't say for sure. I'll leave immediately when I'm ready. In order to go and return quickly, I travel easily and don't put on any ostentation. You don't need to send it off. I will come back." Jia She said.

Song Xi nodded without forcing him, and still watched Jia Amnesty go before getting in the car and leaving.

After Jia Amnesty returned home, he told Jia's mother about the matter, but he couldn't say it was because of the news network. He only said that he would go back to his hometown on leave and pay homage to his ancestor's grave.

"You've only been an official for a few days. Why do you suddenly want to go away? It's too rash, and what does the sage who gave you an official think?" Jia Mu frowned, puzzled.

"The sage has already confirmed it. Anyway, my son is of no use in Yushitai. It doesn't make any difference whether he goes or not."

Hearing that the emperor had approved it, Jia's mother felt a little relieved.After all, Jia Amnesty returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, which was considered a serious matter.Mother Jia couldn't stop her too much, so she had to tell him to go and come back quickly.

Jia Amnesty then asked Daiyu if there was any letter for him to deliver.Daiyu wrote a letter in a hurry that night and sent it to Jia Amnesty.

Mrs. Wang was hesitant when she heard the news, but she really wanted Jia Amnesty to deliver the letter to her sister.After thinking about it, she didn't have the face to bother Jia Zheng, so she begged Wang Xifeng to talk.Wang Xifeng thought of his relatives' affection, so she cheekily and tactfully asked the Elder Master, but unexpectedly, the Elder Master agreed without saying a word.Wang Xifeng was very grateful for this, and thought that her father-in-law was very sensible, and she would be the first to rush up and slap anyone who dared to call him a jerk in the future!

Just after dawn the next day, Jia Amnesty left the city with Zhu Mao and a dozen secret guards.Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian took care of everything in the house, while Fang Zhenglu, Hei Zhu and others were in charge of the neighbor's house and the collection of information.

Because of the ease of travel, Jia Amnesty arrived in Jinling in less than ten days on a fast horse.
