The first paparazzi in the Red Chamber
Chapter 62 Chapter 1 Paparazzi
"Since the princess has already driven away the idlers and avoided suspicion, why don't you speak out?" Jia She suggested.
The third princess laughed lightly, and then a nanny opened the door.
The third princess dragged her long skirt and walked out gracefully after two solemn-looking nuns opened the way.
Jia She looked at her formal attire, she must be looking for some serious name, and came here to work hard and mobilize people to offer incense.
The three princesses moved to the gazebo in the courtyard, and there was a woman who spread the soft satin and helped the princess to sit down.
Jia Amnesty only brought Gui San and another secret guard over, and now all three of them faced the third princess and saluted.
"Master Jia, there is no need to be polite. There are too many people who respect me on the face, so you don't have to stick to it."
At first glance, these words sound very generous, but in fact they are mocking Jia She who only respects her on the surface, but disrespects her in the heart.
The three princesses glanced at Jia She haughtily, then spoke gracefully, and gave Jia She a seat.
Mammy took out a chair from the room and put it behind Jia She.
Jia amnesty thanked him and sat down.He sat in the yard outside the gazebo, some distance away from the three princesses.At this moment when the sun was shining on his face, Jia She lowered his eyes and narrowed his eyes slightly, showing the advantages of flawless and translucent skin and thick and slender eyelashes.
The third princess calmly sized Jia She up and down, pursed the corners of her mouth slightly, and then asked how old Jia She was.
Before Jia Amnesty could answer, she laughed first and began to ask and answer.
"Look at this Gong's memory. I heard that your two sons have been dating in their twenties. Even if you married a wife and had children at fifteen, you have to have thirty-six sevens now. What's more, you have a deceased eldest son."
"The three princesses will stay young forever, and they will have their present day every year." Jia She immediately congratulated her.
"You—" The third princess suddenly became embarrassed and glared at Jia She.
However, what Jia She said was to bless her, and the third princess had no reason to catch the loopholes in his words and blame him.
But the third princess knew clearly that Jia She was telling her sarcastically that no one would stay young forever, everyone would grow old one day, and she would reach his age one day in the future.
The third princess quickly adjusted herself, allowing her anger to calm down immediately.Instead, she still maintained a calm and arrogant attitude, and the gaze she looked at Jia She changed from contempt and dislike at the beginning to a little curiosity and admiration.
"I finally understand why Mr. Song treats you differently from others. I appreciate you just because of the courage you have shown in front of me." The third princess said bluntly, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Jia She also noticed that the princess's self-proclaimed name had changed from "Ben Gong" to "I".However, Jia She could see clearly that her so-called admiring smile was not sincere, but a hypocritical perfunctory.
"I didn't have anything special to call you here today. It's just that I heard some bad rumors about you and Mr. Song just after returning to the palace. After all, Mr. Song is my uncle. As a junior, I should care a little bit. Two. Do you think so, Mr. Jia?" The third princess deliberately increased the volume of "Jia".
Jia Amnesty only gave the third princess a perfunctory smile, nodded, and did not speak.
The third princess thought that Jia She would justify this sentence when she heard the "bad rumors", but she didn't expect him to be indifferent and didn't care about the criticisms she said.This is... a bit unreasonable, he is a royal doctor, and he doesn't care about the rumors.Although there are no rumors outside, she mostly fabricated these words, but shouldn't men pay more attention to power and reputation?
The third princess immediately realized that Jia She was a difficult master, and her eyes became sharper.She secretly grabbed the skirt on her leg to control her emotions.
"Lord Jia, don't you plan to spend the rest of your life on this inappropriate hobby? If this kind of thing is made public, both of you will lose face in the court. Master Song has a deep foundation, so it's okay to say. You Well, if you are single and weak, let alone a censor, you should set an example for those censors who are virtuous and picket officials."
"Please trouble the third princess to persuade me, I understand." Jia She said calmly.
Seeing that Jia She didn't listen to her words at all, the third princess didn't show the slightest bit of shame on her face, she just said "I got it" to perfuse herself again.
The third princess just felt that she was heading in the wrong direction every time, and staggered.She was so angry that her teeth were sour, and she almost couldn't control her emotions.
There are only two men in this world who can make her so unable to control her emotions, one is Song Xi, and the other is Jia She in front of her.Even facing her royal father, she had never experienced such emotional fluctuations.
For a moment, the third princess had the idea that "they are worthy of being a couple".But soon, she killed the idea.It is against common sense that these two are together, and it is absolutely impossible for them to last long.And it's not that she has never seen such things as men and men, and she has never seen a man who would not marry a woman for the sake of a man.
Jia Amnesty waited for a while, and saw that the third princess was just squinting at the teacup on the table, so she smiled and asked with a better attitude: "Since the third princess has finished what she should have said, can I resign?"
After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he got up and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, the nuns immediately scolded Jia She.Without the permission of the princess, he was naturally not allowed to leave.
Ghost San became vigilant, and quickly grabbed the saber at his waist to protect Jia She.
"What an arrogant follower, do you think you can really protect your master? His fate is here today, and there is nothing you can do about it. You can only be buried with him." Nanny Qi shouted confidently, with eyes full of tears. Bloodthirsty killing intent.
Gui San was looking at Jia She, and found in his master's eyes that he should not act rashly, so he calmed down, with a stern face, and categorically disdain to pay attention to the woman.
The scene was quiet for a while.
The third princess did not speak.Jia Amnesty didn't speak either.
But Jia Amnesty kept squinting his phoenix eyes, looking at the third princess, the corners of his mouth curled up a little, looking like a smile but not a smile.
The third princess was suspicious by Jia She's appearance.After a while, she suddenly uttered a voice and scolded Nanny Qi: "The honored guest invited by the palace, how can you allow you to make such nonsense, why don't you hurry up and make amends to Mrs. Jia."
It was just a casual reprimand, the third princess obviously didn't really mean to blame Nanny Qi.
Jia She smiled and excused Nanny Qi's apology, and then left.
After leaving the palace gate, we walked all the way to the gate of Fahua Temple.Looking at the pilgrims coming and going at the gate of the temple, Jia She secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Gui San also breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Jia She: "At that time, there must have been people ambushing in front of and behind the house, and I could feel the murderous intent. The master only brought the two of us in, it was really a bad move."
"Don't worry, she doesn't have the ability to kill me casually. Now this is just the first step between rivals in love, and she will warn you."
Jia She patted Gui San on the shoulder, and before getting into the car, he saw the little eunuch Wei Wuzhi following him.
Wei Zhiwu sent a message on behalf of her princess, hoping that Jia Amnesty would not tell what happened today.
"Even if you say it, your master probably has already prepared a hundred ways to quibble. I'm not that stupid, I do some useless things. Go back quickly and take care of yourself as much as possible."
Jia Amnesty asked Zhu Mao to reward him with another piece of silver, then turned around and got into the car neatly, and went back to Rongfu.
Holding the silver, Wei Wuzhi was a little stunned, until the carriage disappeared, then turned around and ran to answer.
……
On the way, Zhu Mao listened to Gui San's story.When he got home, he was very angry, his face was flushed red, he only hated that he was not there at that time, and wished he could swing his knife and kill him again.
"You, even if you are blind right now, I will admire you when you see the grandeur of the third princess, and you can have the same grandeur as you do now." Ghost San smiled.
Zhu Mao sniffed his nose, expressing that he was determined to protect him, he had no second thoughts, and he was not afraid of heaven and earth.
"Really?"
"Ok!"
Ghost Three stomped his feet.
Zhu Mao immediately hugged his foot and screamed for pain, hopped on one leg and hid, "Ghost, why are you stepping on me?"
"Wiping the neck hurts much more than this." Gui San chopped off the pig's hair's neck with his palm.
Zhu Mao shrank his neck, pursed his mouth and said nothing more.
Jia Amnesty was sitting by the window, watching their mischief with his chin in his hand, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In a blink of an eye, it's the day of rest and bathing again.
Lin Ruhai planned to simply celebrate the housewarming today, basically among family members, so in the morning, he sent people to Rongfu to welcome Jia Mu and others.
There are a few women who are in charge of affairs in the back house of the Lin Mansion.Wang Xifeng brought Yingchun to help Zhang Zaoer, and then taught Daiyu some principles of housekeeping.
Wang Xifeng also felt sorry for Daiyu, and summed up the essence of her housekeeping for so many years.Daiyu is intelligent and smart, and she learns quickly. In addition, when she was in Rongfu, she often followed Yingchun in Wang Xifeng's room, learning how to be a housekeeper.At this time, Daiyu is naturally able to seek the best from the best, and quickly understands the essential method.
"I said it's good for Sister Lin to spend some time on this. One is to exercise her housekeeping skills, and she will be a good hand when she gets married in the future. The other is to divide her energy and go out, so she doesn't have to be sad for 'Flowers Fall' and 'Chun Qu' It's exhausting." Yingchun sighed.
Wang Xifeng nodded and said yes.
Daiyu chased after her to welcome the spring, "Well, what are you saying about me, just bury a flower, it's worth your joke?"
"It's no joke, but I think there is nothing unclean about falling flowers on the soil. There is a saying, 'Luohong is not a ruthless thing, it turns into spring mud to protect the flowers'. This year's flowers are gone, and there will be more next year The seasons change, the flowers bloom and fall, and they come back and forth. These things are not worth your sorrow. It’s okay to bury flowers, but you can bury them beautifully. I’d like to see them, but I’m just saying that I’m sad.” Yingchun explained.
Wang Xifeng smiled: "I'm vulgar. I don't understand your poems or lines. I only know that everyone lives like this every day. You also live when you are sentimental and happy. Why don't you make yourself happy?"
"That's exactly the reason." Yingchun agreed.
Daiyu blushed, "I can see that you two are good examples taught by my uncle. I understand why people should look forward, okay, okay, don't be verbose, hurry up and choose dishes After a while, the old lady will come and have nothing to eat, I'll see how you, granddaughter-in-law, explain."
Wang Xifeng had long been used to Daiyu's snarky mouth, so she agreed with a smile, brought the menu, and discussed the choice with them.
Yingchun suddenly thought of Xue's family and asked if he was invited.
Wang Xifeng said: "It can't be left behind. After all, they are relatives. I sent someone to send the news yesterday."
Daiyu has no objection either.
Not long after, Aunt Xue arrived first with a pair of children, and then Mother Jia and other female relatives came.The female relatives are all in the backyard, and it's March in Yangchun. It's very good to see Jinger and have some tea.
At the beginning, Lin Ruhai attracted Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun to Jia She because of the housewarming.As for Xue Pan, Jia Lian and other younger generations, Lin Ruhai chose another place for them, and only sent them to do whatever they wanted.
Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun cherished this opportunity to meet Jia She, and hurriedly asked him about the miscellaneous journals he had sent over last time. Jia She loved it.
Jia She nodded and said: "Interesting, but I still have to return it to you after reading it. I heard that this book is quite valuable."
"No need, just a few books, how much are they worth?" Zuo Zhiqiu hurriedly said modestly.
Jia Amnesty: "I only care about the content. I appreciate the wonderful stories. I don't care about other things. If you really want to, you can print the book and distribute it to the world. It will be the luck of the world's literati."
Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun immediately understood, and hurriedly said that they would order their subordinates to do it later.
Several people chatted for a while, Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun looked at each other, and asked Jia Amnesty tentatively: "I heard that Yushitai is re-examining the disaster relief cases in recent years. Your Excellency has enough manpower, but Dali Monastery is needed?" Help one or two?"
Jia Yucun hurriedly echoed: "In recent months, Dali Temple has been quiet."
"It's nothing too much, just check the accounts and get it right." Jia Amnesty said casually.
"It's not as easy as the adults said. Reconciliation and re-examination is a delicate and troublesome job." Zuo Zhiqiu hurriedly sighed, "If it's better in the past one or two years, it will be even more troublesome if it goes on."
"Yes." Jia She agreed.
Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun's hearts skipped a beat. Hearing what Jia Amnesty said, the disaster relief case four years ago would definitely be under review.But judging by Jia Amnesty's indifferent attitude at the moment, he probably hasn't found anything yet.
The two of them felt rejoiced, but also extremely apprehensive.
Zuo Zhiqiu hurriedly poured wine for Jia She, saying that he recently found some miscellaneous storybooks, which were very beautiful, and sent someone to bring them to Jia She when he turned around.
"It's hard for you."
Jia Amnesty smiled, toasted with Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun.
Afterwards, the men talked happily.
After spending nearly an hour, it ended in a very pleasant atmosphere.
Although it was said that today was to celebrate Lin Ruhai's move, but Lin Ruhai was not the protagonist at the banquet table, he had been secretly observing and acting as a foil.
As soon as Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun left, Lin Ruhai asked Jia She, "Is it because the disaster relief project encountered a bottleneck four years ago and we need to start with these two?"
Jia She was surprised for a moment, but then felt that with Lin Ruhai's intelligence, it is not unusual to observe these things.
Jia Amnesty then confessed: "The disaster relief case is settled for corruption, but I just want to see if there are any black hands behind the scenes."
"Jiang Hongtre is dead, and Wang Ziteng is also dead. Is there someone stronger than the two of them behind this case?" Lin Ruhai was even more surprised.
Jia Amnesty: "Maybe not, let's wait and see."
Lin Ruhai rolled his eyes, and then asked Jia Amnesty probingly: "You have already convicted the two of them, so this time is not just walking them for nothing?"
Jia She smiled, "That's one thing, but on the other hand, I also want to see what they will do when they are dying. I am a bit disappointed."
Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun now only know how to curry favor with him, which seems to show that they have no other way out.It seems that only Jiang Hongtre had some contact with the person behind the scenes, and Zuo Zhiqiu was probably just a little guy at that time.
Lin Ruhai smiled helplessly, "I think you are like a cat. After catching a mouse, you don't kill it immediately, and let the mouse think that there is hope of escape. In fact, you have been played by the cat in the palm of your hand, and you can't get rid of the near-death pain." destiny."
"It's a cat again." Jia She sighed with a smile.Song Xi was called a male cat by a little eunuch before, but now he is also compared to a cat.In this way, it is normal for him and Song Xi to have a 'cat son'.
Lin Ruhai thought Jia She was smiling strangely, and asked him why he was smiling.
Jia She shook his head, "It's just that the cat is associated with a person, it doesn't matter."
"Speaking of which, Master Song has not been in Beijing for some time, and I don't know what to do when he is out." Lin Ruhai sighed.
Jia She knew that Lin Ruhai felt this emotion because he saw something.So he calmly told him not to think too much, Song Xi had his own things to handle, and he would come back naturally after finishing them.
"You're not worried." Lin Ruhai felt that he really didn't need to worry.
"There needs to be a little trust between people." Since Jia She chose to believe in Song Xi, he would continue to believe in it, unless there was something unworthy of his belief.
Lin Ruhai bowed his hands to Jia She, expressing his admiration.After watching him leave, he reflected on himself again.Brother-in-law at this age, can still find such a good relationship, why should he keep giving up on himself, thinking that the rest of his life will be boring?
The next day.
Jia's mother went out to socialize, but she didn't return as happy as usual.
Now because of Jia She's important status in the court, the lintel of Rong Mansion is naturally high.Among the wives of various families, Jia's mother can be regarded as a very important figure who is highly sought after.So every time Mother Jia went out in recent days, she came back happy and happy.
This is very rare today. Seeing Mother Jia's sullen face, everyone didn't dare to offend her, and didn't dare to pant loudly. They all served her carefully.Even Wang Xifeng, who used to be courteous in front of Jia's mother and had a sharp mouth, left under excuses when she saw this and hid.
As soon as Jia Amnesty came back, Jia's mother locked Jia Amnesty in the house and drove away the idlers.
"Let me ask you, where did Song Xi go? What did he do?"
"do not know."
"When will you be back?"
"do not know."
"you……"
Mother Jia stared at Jia Amnesty with an expression of 'I'm so worried about you'.
"After all, he is a dragon and a phoenix among men. He is outstanding. There are countless people who appreciate him, and there must be a few bold and black-hearted ones who have done something wrong. How could you just let him go out like this, and don't care about anything?" regardless of!"
"He was ordered to go to Beijing to do business. I have no right to interfere with the emperor's orders. Besides, I don't care for people who can be easily snatched away by others." Jia She said in a firm tone.
Mother Jia was so angry that she pointed at Jia Amnesty, "Look how arrogant you are! How old are you, and you still act like an ignorant boy, thinking that all things in the world are romantic affairs? You are also a man yourself. You don’t understand his thoughts? You don’t care about his focus, what kind of couple are you looking for. Hmph, my wife has lived for so many years, but I haven’t seen any good men who can stand the test in this world! Even my own son is counted!”
Jia Mu gave Jia Amnesty a blank look, with disgust on her face.
Jia Amnesty couldn't help feeling amused, and sat down to drink tea.
Seeing this, Jia's mother was even angrier, "I haven't finished talking yet, you stand up for me, don't sit down."
Jia Amnesty had no choice but to stand up obediently, motioning for Jia's mother to continue.
"Did you listen to what I said? I'll let you watch him." Jia Mu said earnestly.
"Okay, okay, you're always right in everything you say." Jia She said perfunctorily.
Jia Mu: "Don't fool me. Let me tell you, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer a loss sooner or later. If you didn't see your heart for him, I wouldn't bother to worry about it for you. It would be nice to have fun, It’s easy to get together and separate, without hurting each other.”
"Okay, I get it. My son must take your words to heart. When he comes back later, I will definitely ask you these questions clearly." Jia Amnesty saluted Jia Mu solemnly and explained.
Mother Jia finally calmed down a little, but she still told Jia Amnesty to take this matter seriously. "You can't be careless about this kind of thing."
"Yes, yes, yes." Jia Amnesty agreed.
Then Mother Jia nodded, indicating that Jia Amnesty could sit down and drink tea.After Jia Amnesty drank his evening tea, Mother Jia stretched her neck slightly and asked him if the rumor about the third princess was true.
"She really likes Song Xi?"
"Ah."
"Yo," Mother Jia sneered, covering her mouth with her hands slightly, with a sarcastic expression on her face, "I don't even care about her seniority. Now that she is a widow, she has no intention of going back to Beiyuan Kingdom. Based on my experience of eating salt over the years Well, she probably still has this thought. If you want to be shameless, he is her uncle and he is not interested in women. What is she doing with such a cheeky face?
"Yes." Jia She agreed.
"Although she is a princess and has a high status, she is a female family member after all, and she can't reach the court or interfere with you. Don't take this matter too seriously. I don't think she will do anything normally. Way." Mother Jia encouraged Jia She.
Jia Amnesty quickly agreed and thanked Jia Mu for her concern.
Mother Jia felt relieved and took a breath.Instead, he hesitated slightly, and said to Jia She: "It may be useless to talk about something, but I have to. After all, the second child was also born to me. Can you help your second brother when you have time? I I don't expect him to be very promising, just let him sit firmly in the current official position and live a good life with your younger siblings."
"Let me try, but you know his temper, he is more stubborn than anyone else." After Jia Amnesty said, he asked Baoyu how he was recently.When he came to Dingxing before, he often saw Baoyu sticking to Jiamu.The last few times it was strange that he was nowhere to be seen.
"This child is probably stimulated by Song Lu. He has been studying hard these two days, and he is also learning to write essays. He wants to write a smooth one. Next time, he can learn from others." Jiamu mentioned Baoyu's ambition , happy, she would like to see Baoyu learn more like Song Lu.
"After my brother-in-law moved, didn't he feel sad?" Jia She asked.
Jia's mother understood what Jia She meant by this question, and explained to him carefully: "I have read Miss Lin a few times, but it's nothing. They live in the capital, and it's not too far away. See you whenever you want. He also understands this. Reasonable, not as dazed as last time."
Jia Amnesty nodded, thinking that it would be best if Baoyu could do this.
After Jia Amnesty came out of Jia Mu's courtyard, he received a message from Zhu Mao: Ding An, the former county magistrate of Maxin County, was killed on his way to Ningshui County to take office.
"Maxin County is very close to the capital, and it is adjacent to Puliu County, where the master once visited. Ningshui County is four hundred miles away, and it only takes two days to get there by carriage. Ding An's family has a total of ten masters and servants. The six corpses all died in a wood on the way."
"It's appalling." Jia She said, "Did you encounter bandits?"
"It is said that a trap was dug in the middle of the road, and the first car fell into the pit. People don't die together, and there are corpses in the forest." Reply as soon as possible, other matters have not been understood yet.”
Jia Amnesty narrowed his eyes when Heizhu described the incident, pondered for a moment, and then asked Heizhu when it happened.
Black Pig: "About two hours ago."
The incident happened at the boundary of the capital city, so no one questioned the intervention of the Gyeonggi Province.
"Go and inform Liu Zhizhong, and ask him to immediately send someone to seal off the scene, and no one else is allowed to enter or leave."
Jia Amnesty changed his mind, since this matter was related to the death of a seventh-rank official of the imperial court, Dali Temple could also be touched, and asked someone to deliver a message to Lin's residence.
Heizhu thought that it would be all right after the news was reported, but he didn't expect his master to intervene in the case.
"My lord, this kind of bandit robbery and murder case should be handled by the government. It should be written in "Secrets of Neighbors", and I will bother the people in Gyeonggi Province and copy the confession."
"This case is not ordinary."
And Jia Amnesty really wanted to take over the case.
Jia Amnesty changed into his official uniform and came back, had some tea and snacks, and then hurried into the palace to meet the saint.
The emperor was also horrified by the fact that the seventh-rank official was killed by his family.
He also felt that bandits were more likely to do evil, and he didn't understand why Jia Amnesty was so obsessed with it.But he knew that Jia Amnesty had always had a sharp eye, able to see things that ordinary people ignore.Even if he asked at this moment, Jia Amnesty could only answer some conjectures.It's better to agree directly and see what flowers he can find out in this case.
The emperor's side has been finalized, let Jia She temporarily take the place of Song Xi, and assist in the affairs of Gyeonggi Prefecture.Only officials from the Ministry of Punishment came to the saint in that room to report the murder of Ding An's family.
"The news network is really powerful, faster than the clumsy ones like the imperial court."
The emperor directly sent away the people from the Ministry of Punishment, so there was no need to see him, and he could rest assured that everything would be handled by Jia Amnesty.
After Jia Amnesty was about to leave the palace, he immediately set off for the crime scene.Although when we got there, it might already be dark.But Jia Amnesty can stay in a nearby village and county, and he can survey the scene at dawn the next day.
Unfortunately, he had just walked out from the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and another little eunuch came to stop him.
When Jia Amnesty heard that it was the eleventh prince this time, he smiled without any surprise and asked the eunuch to lead the way.
The eleventh prince, Mu Ruiyuan, was standing on the porch, playing with the birds with a small wooden stick.
Hearing that Jia She was coming, he hurriedly smiled and threw away the things in his hands, and instead of paying Jia She's salute, invited him to sit in the gazebo and taste the spring tea he just got.
Jia Amnesty took a sip and sighed that it was delicious.In fact, he only felt that the taste was a little bit more fresh, but he couldn't tell what the specific taste was or how deep it was.
Mu Ruiyuan watched Jia She for a while, and saw that he couldn't say anything other than agree, so he laughed with emotion, "Master Jia is a simple and straightforward character."
"His Highness the Eleventh laughed." Jia She said.
"It's because you have met someone else. My little uncle and I have always had a good relationship. He appreciates the person he likes, and I naturally appreciate it too. From now on, you don't have to be so polite with me. In private, we get along like friends and don't stick to the rules. "Muruiyuan said enthusiastically.
Jia Amnesty hurriedly said he did not dare.
"Such a small matter, don't bother with me, it's settled." Muruiyuan laughed heartily, and then introduced a few new palace desserts to Jia She, "They are all soft and sweet. Just take it back to honor your old lady."
After Mu Ruiyuan finished speaking, he ordered people to prepare two food boxes.
Jia Amnesty thanked him, but he knew in his heart that Mu Ruiyuan was warning or reminding him of something.This guy even knows that Mother Jia likes to eat soft, rotten sweet things, and obviously has investigated his family long ago.
"By the way, I heard that Yushitai is currently reviewing the disaster relief work of the household department over the years. I have heard of it a long time ago. There are a lot of black things in the disaster relief, and there is a lot of money. Money is best to be greedy. Have you found out anything? ?” Murray asked.
It turned out that this was why Mu Ruiyuan asked him to come to Germany, as expected.
Just analyze from the few words he just said.He was very sure that there must be corruption in the disaster relief funds, and then he asked if he had found anything.It was obviously intended to remind and urge, hoping that Jia Amnesty could dig out a corruption case from it.
As for which corruption case he was referring to, Jia Amnesty naturally knew it well.
"Still investigating." Jia Amnesty smiled slightly.
"Then your actions are too slow. Let my little uncle handle this matter. With a glance, you can immediately see which one has a problem." Mu Ruiyuan seemed to mutter casually, and then immediately talked to Jia She apologized, and said with a smile that he was not malicious, "Forget it, after all, little uncle is different from ordinary people, and I shouldn't compare you with him."
"What the eleventh prince said is very true." Jia She replied slowly to Muruiyuan.
Jia Amnesty is in a happy mood at the moment, because the development of the matter is exactly as he expected.
Murui didn't expect Jia Amnesty to be a master who can eat sarcasm.He froze for a moment, with a hint of admiration in his smile.After that, he didn't bother Jia Amnesty anymore, and finally only asked him not to worry about Song Xi who was going out.
After Jia She expressed his thanks, he left in a hurry and went to investigate his case.
Murui looked at Jia Shechuchuo's leaving back with complicated eyes.
Instead, he sighed and smiled self-deprecatingly.
The door of the house with the bird cage hanging under the window opened at this time.
The third princess walked out neatly in a green dress.
"Third sister, as you said, she is amazing. And I found that I like this Jia She more and more. It's really interesting." Mu Ruiyuan didn't mind being dirty, and sat on the porch comfortably.
"No one is serious. It's good that he has some skills. If he is a mediocre person who does nothing, I really don't deserve that person." When the third princess said "that person", her eyebrows and eyes turned down, and her expression was self-contained. A touch of hurt.
Mu Ruiyuan glanced at the third princess with a completely incomprehensible look on his face, and then laughed.
"Don't just laugh when you have nothing to do, it's annoying." The third princess said angrily.
"Third sister, don't blame me for talking too much. If you have time to read "Secrets of the Next Door", you will know that life is short and the consequences of making wrong decisions are terrible."
"You bastard, it's not your turn to talk too much." The third princess stared at Muruiyuan reproachfully, and then sat beside him without being too dirty, "Bringing this "Secrets of My Neighbor" has aroused my interest." , the content is indeed interesting, and the writing is bold enough. He can spy on the inside story of so many officials' homes, but still keep his identity secret, which shows that he is a daring and weird talent. It will be helpful if he is recruited by you. So Rare talents are hard to find in the world, you have to put your heart into it."
"You have said that he is not a simple character. If I find him easily, then he will become a simple character."
"Poor mouth." The third princess nodded Mu Ruiyuan's head, and took the people away without talking to him.
After Jia Amnesty left the palace, he went straight to the scene of the crime.Because when we were on our way, it was getting dark.When he got there, he suddenly felt that this forest looked familiar.The last time when the Zhenyan tribe had a wedding with the princess, Jia Amnesty walked through the forest with those wedding teams.After passing the forest and going south, it should be Songyue County.
It was already dark now, so there was no need for Jia She to go into the woods in the middle of the night to look at the corpse.Jia Amnesty met Liu Zhizhong as he had planned before, and ordered the government officials in Gyeonggi Province to set up camp nearby and guard the scene of the crime.
After that, Jia Amnesty took the others to the nearest village to Linzi and rented a private house.
Jia Amnesty listened to Liu Zhizhong's description of the situation at the scene of the crime, and listened to Wu Zuo's report on the autopsy results.
Lin Ruhai arrived later and said to Jia She: "I sent people to inquire with the villagers nearby, and they said that there were indeed bandits on this road, and they also robbed many passers-by. The family members of the officials were also robbed twice here. It can be seen that How courageous are these bandits."
Jia She: "I've heard about it before. Because of the ravines and ravines in the forest, it's easy to get lost. Bandits who are familiar with the situation can easily hide and escape. Even if the imperial court sends tens of thousands of troops to suppress the bandits, I'm afraid it will be laborious and mobilize the masses." , but with little effect.
However, since Ding An moved his family because of his transfer, he would definitely bring some belongings with him, and he should have the common sense to protect money.Why didn't he just follow the official path, but why did he choose to take such a dangerous path? "
The third princess laughed lightly, and then a nanny opened the door.
The third princess dragged her long skirt and walked out gracefully after two solemn-looking nuns opened the way.
Jia She looked at her formal attire, she must be looking for some serious name, and came here to work hard and mobilize people to offer incense.
The three princesses moved to the gazebo in the courtyard, and there was a woman who spread the soft satin and helped the princess to sit down.
Jia Amnesty only brought Gui San and another secret guard over, and now all three of them faced the third princess and saluted.
"Master Jia, there is no need to be polite. There are too many people who respect me on the face, so you don't have to stick to it."
At first glance, these words sound very generous, but in fact they are mocking Jia She who only respects her on the surface, but disrespects her in the heart.
The three princesses glanced at Jia She haughtily, then spoke gracefully, and gave Jia She a seat.
Mammy took out a chair from the room and put it behind Jia She.
Jia amnesty thanked him and sat down.He sat in the yard outside the gazebo, some distance away from the three princesses.At this moment when the sun was shining on his face, Jia She lowered his eyes and narrowed his eyes slightly, showing the advantages of flawless and translucent skin and thick and slender eyelashes.
The third princess calmly sized Jia She up and down, pursed the corners of her mouth slightly, and then asked how old Jia She was.
Before Jia Amnesty could answer, she laughed first and began to ask and answer.
"Look at this Gong's memory. I heard that your two sons have been dating in their twenties. Even if you married a wife and had children at fifteen, you have to have thirty-six sevens now. What's more, you have a deceased eldest son."
"The three princesses will stay young forever, and they will have their present day every year." Jia She immediately congratulated her.
"You—" The third princess suddenly became embarrassed and glared at Jia She.
However, what Jia She said was to bless her, and the third princess had no reason to catch the loopholes in his words and blame him.
But the third princess knew clearly that Jia She was telling her sarcastically that no one would stay young forever, everyone would grow old one day, and she would reach his age one day in the future.
The third princess quickly adjusted herself, allowing her anger to calm down immediately.Instead, she still maintained a calm and arrogant attitude, and the gaze she looked at Jia She changed from contempt and dislike at the beginning to a little curiosity and admiration.
"I finally understand why Mr. Song treats you differently from others. I appreciate you just because of the courage you have shown in front of me." The third princess said bluntly, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Jia She also noticed that the princess's self-proclaimed name had changed from "Ben Gong" to "I".However, Jia She could see clearly that her so-called admiring smile was not sincere, but a hypocritical perfunctory.
"I didn't have anything special to call you here today. It's just that I heard some bad rumors about you and Mr. Song just after returning to the palace. After all, Mr. Song is my uncle. As a junior, I should care a little bit. Two. Do you think so, Mr. Jia?" The third princess deliberately increased the volume of "Jia".
Jia Amnesty only gave the third princess a perfunctory smile, nodded, and did not speak.
The third princess thought that Jia She would justify this sentence when she heard the "bad rumors", but she didn't expect him to be indifferent and didn't care about the criticisms she said.This is... a bit unreasonable, he is a royal doctor, and he doesn't care about the rumors.Although there are no rumors outside, she mostly fabricated these words, but shouldn't men pay more attention to power and reputation?
The third princess immediately realized that Jia She was a difficult master, and her eyes became sharper.She secretly grabbed the skirt on her leg to control her emotions.
"Lord Jia, don't you plan to spend the rest of your life on this inappropriate hobby? If this kind of thing is made public, both of you will lose face in the court. Master Song has a deep foundation, so it's okay to say. You Well, if you are single and weak, let alone a censor, you should set an example for those censors who are virtuous and picket officials."
"Please trouble the third princess to persuade me, I understand." Jia She said calmly.
Seeing that Jia She didn't listen to her words at all, the third princess didn't show the slightest bit of shame on her face, she just said "I got it" to perfuse herself again.
The third princess just felt that she was heading in the wrong direction every time, and staggered.She was so angry that her teeth were sour, and she almost couldn't control her emotions.
There are only two men in this world who can make her so unable to control her emotions, one is Song Xi, and the other is Jia She in front of her.Even facing her royal father, she had never experienced such emotional fluctuations.
For a moment, the third princess had the idea that "they are worthy of being a couple".But soon, she killed the idea.It is against common sense that these two are together, and it is absolutely impossible for them to last long.And it's not that she has never seen such things as men and men, and she has never seen a man who would not marry a woman for the sake of a man.
Jia Amnesty waited for a while, and saw that the third princess was just squinting at the teacup on the table, so she smiled and asked with a better attitude: "Since the third princess has finished what she should have said, can I resign?"
After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he got up and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, the nuns immediately scolded Jia She.Without the permission of the princess, he was naturally not allowed to leave.
Ghost San became vigilant, and quickly grabbed the saber at his waist to protect Jia She.
"What an arrogant follower, do you think you can really protect your master? His fate is here today, and there is nothing you can do about it. You can only be buried with him." Nanny Qi shouted confidently, with eyes full of tears. Bloodthirsty killing intent.
Gui San was looking at Jia She, and found in his master's eyes that he should not act rashly, so he calmed down, with a stern face, and categorically disdain to pay attention to the woman.
The scene was quiet for a while.
The third princess did not speak.Jia Amnesty didn't speak either.
But Jia Amnesty kept squinting his phoenix eyes, looking at the third princess, the corners of his mouth curled up a little, looking like a smile but not a smile.
The third princess was suspicious by Jia She's appearance.After a while, she suddenly uttered a voice and scolded Nanny Qi: "The honored guest invited by the palace, how can you allow you to make such nonsense, why don't you hurry up and make amends to Mrs. Jia."
It was just a casual reprimand, the third princess obviously didn't really mean to blame Nanny Qi.
Jia She smiled and excused Nanny Qi's apology, and then left.
After leaving the palace gate, we walked all the way to the gate of Fahua Temple.Looking at the pilgrims coming and going at the gate of the temple, Jia She secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Gui San also breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Jia She: "At that time, there must have been people ambushing in front of and behind the house, and I could feel the murderous intent. The master only brought the two of us in, it was really a bad move."
"Don't worry, she doesn't have the ability to kill me casually. Now this is just the first step between rivals in love, and she will warn you."
Jia She patted Gui San on the shoulder, and before getting into the car, he saw the little eunuch Wei Wuzhi following him.
Wei Zhiwu sent a message on behalf of her princess, hoping that Jia Amnesty would not tell what happened today.
"Even if you say it, your master probably has already prepared a hundred ways to quibble. I'm not that stupid, I do some useless things. Go back quickly and take care of yourself as much as possible."
Jia Amnesty asked Zhu Mao to reward him with another piece of silver, then turned around and got into the car neatly, and went back to Rongfu.
Holding the silver, Wei Wuzhi was a little stunned, until the carriage disappeared, then turned around and ran to answer.
……
On the way, Zhu Mao listened to Gui San's story.When he got home, he was very angry, his face was flushed red, he only hated that he was not there at that time, and wished he could swing his knife and kill him again.
"You, even if you are blind right now, I will admire you when you see the grandeur of the third princess, and you can have the same grandeur as you do now." Ghost San smiled.
Zhu Mao sniffed his nose, expressing that he was determined to protect him, he had no second thoughts, and he was not afraid of heaven and earth.
"Really?"
"Ok!"
Ghost Three stomped his feet.
Zhu Mao immediately hugged his foot and screamed for pain, hopped on one leg and hid, "Ghost, why are you stepping on me?"
"Wiping the neck hurts much more than this." Gui San chopped off the pig's hair's neck with his palm.
Zhu Mao shrank his neck, pursed his mouth and said nothing more.
Jia Amnesty was sitting by the window, watching their mischief with his chin in his hand, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In a blink of an eye, it's the day of rest and bathing again.
Lin Ruhai planned to simply celebrate the housewarming today, basically among family members, so in the morning, he sent people to Rongfu to welcome Jia Mu and others.
There are a few women who are in charge of affairs in the back house of the Lin Mansion.Wang Xifeng brought Yingchun to help Zhang Zaoer, and then taught Daiyu some principles of housekeeping.
Wang Xifeng also felt sorry for Daiyu, and summed up the essence of her housekeeping for so many years.Daiyu is intelligent and smart, and she learns quickly. In addition, when she was in Rongfu, she often followed Yingchun in Wang Xifeng's room, learning how to be a housekeeper.At this time, Daiyu is naturally able to seek the best from the best, and quickly understands the essential method.
"I said it's good for Sister Lin to spend some time on this. One is to exercise her housekeeping skills, and she will be a good hand when she gets married in the future. The other is to divide her energy and go out, so she doesn't have to be sad for 'Flowers Fall' and 'Chun Qu' It's exhausting." Yingchun sighed.
Wang Xifeng nodded and said yes.
Daiyu chased after her to welcome the spring, "Well, what are you saying about me, just bury a flower, it's worth your joke?"
"It's no joke, but I think there is nothing unclean about falling flowers on the soil. There is a saying, 'Luohong is not a ruthless thing, it turns into spring mud to protect the flowers'. This year's flowers are gone, and there will be more next year The seasons change, the flowers bloom and fall, and they come back and forth. These things are not worth your sorrow. It’s okay to bury flowers, but you can bury them beautifully. I’d like to see them, but I’m just saying that I’m sad.” Yingchun explained.
Wang Xifeng smiled: "I'm vulgar. I don't understand your poems or lines. I only know that everyone lives like this every day. You also live when you are sentimental and happy. Why don't you make yourself happy?"
"That's exactly the reason." Yingchun agreed.
Daiyu blushed, "I can see that you two are good examples taught by my uncle. I understand why people should look forward, okay, okay, don't be verbose, hurry up and choose dishes After a while, the old lady will come and have nothing to eat, I'll see how you, granddaughter-in-law, explain."
Wang Xifeng had long been used to Daiyu's snarky mouth, so she agreed with a smile, brought the menu, and discussed the choice with them.
Yingchun suddenly thought of Xue's family and asked if he was invited.
Wang Xifeng said: "It can't be left behind. After all, they are relatives. I sent someone to send the news yesterday."
Daiyu has no objection either.
Not long after, Aunt Xue arrived first with a pair of children, and then Mother Jia and other female relatives came.The female relatives are all in the backyard, and it's March in Yangchun. It's very good to see Jinger and have some tea.
At the beginning, Lin Ruhai attracted Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun to Jia She because of the housewarming.As for Xue Pan, Jia Lian and other younger generations, Lin Ruhai chose another place for them, and only sent them to do whatever they wanted.
Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun cherished this opportunity to meet Jia She, and hurriedly asked him about the miscellaneous journals he had sent over last time. Jia She loved it.
Jia She nodded and said: "Interesting, but I still have to return it to you after reading it. I heard that this book is quite valuable."
"No need, just a few books, how much are they worth?" Zuo Zhiqiu hurriedly said modestly.
Jia Amnesty: "I only care about the content. I appreciate the wonderful stories. I don't care about other things. If you really want to, you can print the book and distribute it to the world. It will be the luck of the world's literati."
Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun immediately understood, and hurriedly said that they would order their subordinates to do it later.
Several people chatted for a while, Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun looked at each other, and asked Jia Amnesty tentatively: "I heard that Yushitai is re-examining the disaster relief cases in recent years. Your Excellency has enough manpower, but Dali Monastery is needed?" Help one or two?"
Jia Yucun hurriedly echoed: "In recent months, Dali Temple has been quiet."
"It's nothing too much, just check the accounts and get it right." Jia Amnesty said casually.
"It's not as easy as the adults said. Reconciliation and re-examination is a delicate and troublesome job." Zuo Zhiqiu hurriedly sighed, "If it's better in the past one or two years, it will be even more troublesome if it goes on."
"Yes." Jia She agreed.
Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun's hearts skipped a beat. Hearing what Jia Amnesty said, the disaster relief case four years ago would definitely be under review.But judging by Jia Amnesty's indifferent attitude at the moment, he probably hasn't found anything yet.
The two of them felt rejoiced, but also extremely apprehensive.
Zuo Zhiqiu hurriedly poured wine for Jia She, saying that he recently found some miscellaneous storybooks, which were very beautiful, and sent someone to bring them to Jia She when he turned around.
"It's hard for you."
Jia Amnesty smiled, toasted with Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun.
Afterwards, the men talked happily.
After spending nearly an hour, it ended in a very pleasant atmosphere.
Although it was said that today was to celebrate Lin Ruhai's move, but Lin Ruhai was not the protagonist at the banquet table, he had been secretly observing and acting as a foil.
As soon as Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun left, Lin Ruhai asked Jia She, "Is it because the disaster relief project encountered a bottleneck four years ago and we need to start with these two?"
Jia She was surprised for a moment, but then felt that with Lin Ruhai's intelligence, it is not unusual to observe these things.
Jia Amnesty then confessed: "The disaster relief case is settled for corruption, but I just want to see if there are any black hands behind the scenes."
"Jiang Hongtre is dead, and Wang Ziteng is also dead. Is there someone stronger than the two of them behind this case?" Lin Ruhai was even more surprised.
Jia Amnesty: "Maybe not, let's wait and see."
Lin Ruhai rolled his eyes, and then asked Jia Amnesty probingly: "You have already convicted the two of them, so this time is not just walking them for nothing?"
Jia She smiled, "That's one thing, but on the other hand, I also want to see what they will do when they are dying. I am a bit disappointed."
Zuo Zhiqiu and Jia Yucun now only know how to curry favor with him, which seems to show that they have no other way out.It seems that only Jiang Hongtre had some contact with the person behind the scenes, and Zuo Zhiqiu was probably just a little guy at that time.
Lin Ruhai smiled helplessly, "I think you are like a cat. After catching a mouse, you don't kill it immediately, and let the mouse think that there is hope of escape. In fact, you have been played by the cat in the palm of your hand, and you can't get rid of the near-death pain." destiny."
"It's a cat again." Jia She sighed with a smile.Song Xi was called a male cat by a little eunuch before, but now he is also compared to a cat.In this way, it is normal for him and Song Xi to have a 'cat son'.
Lin Ruhai thought Jia She was smiling strangely, and asked him why he was smiling.
Jia She shook his head, "It's just that the cat is associated with a person, it doesn't matter."
"Speaking of which, Master Song has not been in Beijing for some time, and I don't know what to do when he is out." Lin Ruhai sighed.
Jia She knew that Lin Ruhai felt this emotion because he saw something.So he calmly told him not to think too much, Song Xi had his own things to handle, and he would come back naturally after finishing them.
"You're not worried." Lin Ruhai felt that he really didn't need to worry.
"There needs to be a little trust between people." Since Jia She chose to believe in Song Xi, he would continue to believe in it, unless there was something unworthy of his belief.
Lin Ruhai bowed his hands to Jia She, expressing his admiration.After watching him leave, he reflected on himself again.Brother-in-law at this age, can still find such a good relationship, why should he keep giving up on himself, thinking that the rest of his life will be boring?
The next day.
Jia's mother went out to socialize, but she didn't return as happy as usual.
Now because of Jia She's important status in the court, the lintel of Rong Mansion is naturally high.Among the wives of various families, Jia's mother can be regarded as a very important figure who is highly sought after.So every time Mother Jia went out in recent days, she came back happy and happy.
This is very rare today. Seeing Mother Jia's sullen face, everyone didn't dare to offend her, and didn't dare to pant loudly. They all served her carefully.Even Wang Xifeng, who used to be courteous in front of Jia's mother and had a sharp mouth, left under excuses when she saw this and hid.
As soon as Jia Amnesty came back, Jia's mother locked Jia Amnesty in the house and drove away the idlers.
"Let me ask you, where did Song Xi go? What did he do?"
"do not know."
"When will you be back?"
"do not know."
"you……"
Mother Jia stared at Jia Amnesty with an expression of 'I'm so worried about you'.
"After all, he is a dragon and a phoenix among men. He is outstanding. There are countless people who appreciate him, and there must be a few bold and black-hearted ones who have done something wrong. How could you just let him go out like this, and don't care about anything?" regardless of!"
"He was ordered to go to Beijing to do business. I have no right to interfere with the emperor's orders. Besides, I don't care for people who can be easily snatched away by others." Jia She said in a firm tone.
Mother Jia was so angry that she pointed at Jia Amnesty, "Look how arrogant you are! How old are you, and you still act like an ignorant boy, thinking that all things in the world are romantic affairs? You are also a man yourself. You don’t understand his thoughts? You don’t care about his focus, what kind of couple are you looking for. Hmph, my wife has lived for so many years, but I haven’t seen any good men who can stand the test in this world! Even my own son is counted!”
Jia Mu gave Jia Amnesty a blank look, with disgust on her face.
Jia Amnesty couldn't help feeling amused, and sat down to drink tea.
Seeing this, Jia's mother was even angrier, "I haven't finished talking yet, you stand up for me, don't sit down."
Jia Amnesty had no choice but to stand up obediently, motioning for Jia's mother to continue.
"Did you listen to what I said? I'll let you watch him." Jia Mu said earnestly.
"Okay, okay, you're always right in everything you say." Jia She said perfunctorily.
Jia Mu: "Don't fool me. Let me tell you, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer a loss sooner or later. If you didn't see your heart for him, I wouldn't bother to worry about it for you. It would be nice to have fun, It’s easy to get together and separate, without hurting each other.”
"Okay, I get it. My son must take your words to heart. When he comes back later, I will definitely ask you these questions clearly." Jia Amnesty saluted Jia Mu solemnly and explained.
Mother Jia finally calmed down a little, but she still told Jia Amnesty to take this matter seriously. "You can't be careless about this kind of thing."
"Yes, yes, yes." Jia Amnesty agreed.
Then Mother Jia nodded, indicating that Jia Amnesty could sit down and drink tea.After Jia Amnesty drank his evening tea, Mother Jia stretched her neck slightly and asked him if the rumor about the third princess was true.
"She really likes Song Xi?"
"Ah."
"Yo," Mother Jia sneered, covering her mouth with her hands slightly, with a sarcastic expression on her face, "I don't even care about her seniority. Now that she is a widow, she has no intention of going back to Beiyuan Kingdom. Based on my experience of eating salt over the years Well, she probably still has this thought. If you want to be shameless, he is her uncle and he is not interested in women. What is she doing with such a cheeky face?
"Yes." Jia She agreed.
"Although she is a princess and has a high status, she is a female family member after all, and she can't reach the court or interfere with you. Don't take this matter too seriously. I don't think she will do anything normally. Way." Mother Jia encouraged Jia She.
Jia Amnesty quickly agreed and thanked Jia Mu for her concern.
Mother Jia felt relieved and took a breath.Instead, he hesitated slightly, and said to Jia She: "It may be useless to talk about something, but I have to. After all, the second child was also born to me. Can you help your second brother when you have time? I I don't expect him to be very promising, just let him sit firmly in the current official position and live a good life with your younger siblings."
"Let me try, but you know his temper, he is more stubborn than anyone else." After Jia Amnesty said, he asked Baoyu how he was recently.When he came to Dingxing before, he often saw Baoyu sticking to Jiamu.The last few times it was strange that he was nowhere to be seen.
"This child is probably stimulated by Song Lu. He has been studying hard these two days, and he is also learning to write essays. He wants to write a smooth one. Next time, he can learn from others." Jiamu mentioned Baoyu's ambition , happy, she would like to see Baoyu learn more like Song Lu.
"After my brother-in-law moved, didn't he feel sad?" Jia She asked.
Jia's mother understood what Jia She meant by this question, and explained to him carefully: "I have read Miss Lin a few times, but it's nothing. They live in the capital, and it's not too far away. See you whenever you want. He also understands this. Reasonable, not as dazed as last time."
Jia Amnesty nodded, thinking that it would be best if Baoyu could do this.
After Jia Amnesty came out of Jia Mu's courtyard, he received a message from Zhu Mao: Ding An, the former county magistrate of Maxin County, was killed on his way to Ningshui County to take office.
"Maxin County is very close to the capital, and it is adjacent to Puliu County, where the master once visited. Ningshui County is four hundred miles away, and it only takes two days to get there by carriage. Ding An's family has a total of ten masters and servants. The six corpses all died in a wood on the way."
"It's appalling." Jia She said, "Did you encounter bandits?"
"It is said that a trap was dug in the middle of the road, and the first car fell into the pit. People don't die together, and there are corpses in the forest." Reply as soon as possible, other matters have not been understood yet.”
Jia Amnesty narrowed his eyes when Heizhu described the incident, pondered for a moment, and then asked Heizhu when it happened.
Black Pig: "About two hours ago."
The incident happened at the boundary of the capital city, so no one questioned the intervention of the Gyeonggi Province.
"Go and inform Liu Zhizhong, and ask him to immediately send someone to seal off the scene, and no one else is allowed to enter or leave."
Jia Amnesty changed his mind, since this matter was related to the death of a seventh-rank official of the imperial court, Dali Temple could also be touched, and asked someone to deliver a message to Lin's residence.
Heizhu thought that it would be all right after the news was reported, but he didn't expect his master to intervene in the case.
"My lord, this kind of bandit robbery and murder case should be handled by the government. It should be written in "Secrets of Neighbors", and I will bother the people in Gyeonggi Province and copy the confession."
"This case is not ordinary."
And Jia Amnesty really wanted to take over the case.
Jia Amnesty changed into his official uniform and came back, had some tea and snacks, and then hurried into the palace to meet the saint.
The emperor was also horrified by the fact that the seventh-rank official was killed by his family.
He also felt that bandits were more likely to do evil, and he didn't understand why Jia Amnesty was so obsessed with it.But he knew that Jia Amnesty had always had a sharp eye, able to see things that ordinary people ignore.Even if he asked at this moment, Jia Amnesty could only answer some conjectures.It's better to agree directly and see what flowers he can find out in this case.
The emperor's side has been finalized, let Jia She temporarily take the place of Song Xi, and assist in the affairs of Gyeonggi Prefecture.Only officials from the Ministry of Punishment came to the saint in that room to report the murder of Ding An's family.
"The news network is really powerful, faster than the clumsy ones like the imperial court."
The emperor directly sent away the people from the Ministry of Punishment, so there was no need to see him, and he could rest assured that everything would be handled by Jia Amnesty.
After Jia Amnesty was about to leave the palace, he immediately set off for the crime scene.Although when we got there, it might already be dark.But Jia Amnesty can stay in a nearby village and county, and he can survey the scene at dawn the next day.
Unfortunately, he had just walked out from the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and another little eunuch came to stop him.
When Jia Amnesty heard that it was the eleventh prince this time, he smiled without any surprise and asked the eunuch to lead the way.
The eleventh prince, Mu Ruiyuan, was standing on the porch, playing with the birds with a small wooden stick.
Hearing that Jia She was coming, he hurriedly smiled and threw away the things in his hands, and instead of paying Jia She's salute, invited him to sit in the gazebo and taste the spring tea he just got.
Jia Amnesty took a sip and sighed that it was delicious.In fact, he only felt that the taste was a little bit more fresh, but he couldn't tell what the specific taste was or how deep it was.
Mu Ruiyuan watched Jia She for a while, and saw that he couldn't say anything other than agree, so he laughed with emotion, "Master Jia is a simple and straightforward character."
"His Highness the Eleventh laughed." Jia She said.
"It's because you have met someone else. My little uncle and I have always had a good relationship. He appreciates the person he likes, and I naturally appreciate it too. From now on, you don't have to be so polite with me. In private, we get along like friends and don't stick to the rules. "Muruiyuan said enthusiastically.
Jia Amnesty hurriedly said he did not dare.
"Such a small matter, don't bother with me, it's settled." Muruiyuan laughed heartily, and then introduced a few new palace desserts to Jia She, "They are all soft and sweet. Just take it back to honor your old lady."
After Mu Ruiyuan finished speaking, he ordered people to prepare two food boxes.
Jia Amnesty thanked him, but he knew in his heart that Mu Ruiyuan was warning or reminding him of something.This guy even knows that Mother Jia likes to eat soft, rotten sweet things, and obviously has investigated his family long ago.
"By the way, I heard that Yushitai is currently reviewing the disaster relief work of the household department over the years. I have heard of it a long time ago. There are a lot of black things in the disaster relief, and there is a lot of money. Money is best to be greedy. Have you found out anything? ?” Murray asked.
It turned out that this was why Mu Ruiyuan asked him to come to Germany, as expected.
Just analyze from the few words he just said.He was very sure that there must be corruption in the disaster relief funds, and then he asked if he had found anything.It was obviously intended to remind and urge, hoping that Jia Amnesty could dig out a corruption case from it.
As for which corruption case he was referring to, Jia Amnesty naturally knew it well.
"Still investigating." Jia Amnesty smiled slightly.
"Then your actions are too slow. Let my little uncle handle this matter. With a glance, you can immediately see which one has a problem." Mu Ruiyuan seemed to mutter casually, and then immediately talked to Jia She apologized, and said with a smile that he was not malicious, "Forget it, after all, little uncle is different from ordinary people, and I shouldn't compare you with him."
"What the eleventh prince said is very true." Jia She replied slowly to Muruiyuan.
Jia Amnesty is in a happy mood at the moment, because the development of the matter is exactly as he expected.
Murui didn't expect Jia Amnesty to be a master who can eat sarcasm.He froze for a moment, with a hint of admiration in his smile.After that, he didn't bother Jia Amnesty anymore, and finally only asked him not to worry about Song Xi who was going out.
After Jia She expressed his thanks, he left in a hurry and went to investigate his case.
Murui looked at Jia Shechuchuo's leaving back with complicated eyes.
Instead, he sighed and smiled self-deprecatingly.
The door of the house with the bird cage hanging under the window opened at this time.
The third princess walked out neatly in a green dress.
"Third sister, as you said, she is amazing. And I found that I like this Jia She more and more. It's really interesting." Mu Ruiyuan didn't mind being dirty, and sat on the porch comfortably.
"No one is serious. It's good that he has some skills. If he is a mediocre person who does nothing, I really don't deserve that person." When the third princess said "that person", her eyebrows and eyes turned down, and her expression was self-contained. A touch of hurt.
Mu Ruiyuan glanced at the third princess with a completely incomprehensible look on his face, and then laughed.
"Don't just laugh when you have nothing to do, it's annoying." The third princess said angrily.
"Third sister, don't blame me for talking too much. If you have time to read "Secrets of the Next Door", you will know that life is short and the consequences of making wrong decisions are terrible."
"You bastard, it's not your turn to talk too much." The third princess stared at Muruiyuan reproachfully, and then sat beside him without being too dirty, "Bringing this "Secrets of My Neighbor" has aroused my interest." , the content is indeed interesting, and the writing is bold enough. He can spy on the inside story of so many officials' homes, but still keep his identity secret, which shows that he is a daring and weird talent. It will be helpful if he is recruited by you. So Rare talents are hard to find in the world, you have to put your heart into it."
"You have said that he is not a simple character. If I find him easily, then he will become a simple character."
"Poor mouth." The third princess nodded Mu Ruiyuan's head, and took the people away without talking to him.
After Jia Amnesty left the palace, he went straight to the scene of the crime.Because when we were on our way, it was getting dark.When he got there, he suddenly felt that this forest looked familiar.The last time when the Zhenyan tribe had a wedding with the princess, Jia Amnesty walked through the forest with those wedding teams.After passing the forest and going south, it should be Songyue County.
It was already dark now, so there was no need for Jia She to go into the woods in the middle of the night to look at the corpse.Jia Amnesty met Liu Zhizhong as he had planned before, and ordered the government officials in Gyeonggi Province to set up camp nearby and guard the scene of the crime.
After that, Jia Amnesty took the others to the nearest village to Linzi and rented a private house.
Jia Amnesty listened to Liu Zhizhong's description of the situation at the scene of the crime, and listened to Wu Zuo's report on the autopsy results.
Lin Ruhai arrived later and said to Jia She: "I sent people to inquire with the villagers nearby, and they said that there were indeed bandits on this road, and they also robbed many passers-by. The family members of the officials were also robbed twice here. It can be seen that How courageous are these bandits."
Jia She: "I've heard about it before. Because of the ravines and ravines in the forest, it's easy to get lost. Bandits who are familiar with the situation can easily hide and escape. Even if the imperial court sends tens of thousands of troops to suppress the bandits, I'm afraid it will be laborious and mobilize the masses." , but with little effect.
