The first paparazzi in the Red Chamber

The anger that shot out of Song Xi's eyes was like a sharp arrow, almost piercing Jia Amnesty into a sieve.His gentle and indifferent face was still handsome at this time, but it looked particularly terrifying.

Jia Amnesty was stunned for a moment, glanced at Song Xi, then ducked into the car, and ordered the driver to leave with cold words.

Song Xi turned around and left decisively.

Liu Zhongliang sat in the car, looking at what happened in front of him through the window screen, with a dazed expression on his face.However, in his heart, he rated Jia She's character a little higher. Song Xi was the target of countless people in the court. Looking at Jia She's posture, he dared to quarrel with Song Xi who took the initiative to please him. It's really good. .

Liu Zhongliang smiled, and sent the coachman to drive, he'd better leave Mr. Song here alone for embarrassment.

Song Xi immediately entered the palace.

The guards guarding the gate of the palace still maintained a solemn look, but their hearts were turbulent, feeling that they had just witnessed a very unusual gossip incident.

After Song Xi reported his official duties to the emperor in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he was about to leave.The emperor asked him to wait, and asked Song Xi how Jia Amnesty was doing recently in the tone of chatting with his family.

Song Xi tightly closed his lips and said nothing.

The emperor looked at his repressed and angry appearance, and guessed that the two people's temper had not yet ended, so he smiled, "You are good at everything, but you are too arrogant. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you are a woman or a man, you have to be coaxed. "

Song Xichong saluted the emperor to express his thanks.

The emperor thought that his words had something to say, so he happily dismissed Song Xi and asked him to be smarter to solve the problem.

After Song Xi returned to the Hall of Martial Arts with an indifferent expression on his face, after finishing all the things that should be dealt with, he went back to the mansion, and got into the study and could not come out.

"The eleventh prince is here."

When Mu Ruiyuan saw Song Xi, he presented a booklet to him with both hands.

Song Xi glanced at him coldly, then opened the book casually, and it could be seen that there was an apology letter written in densely packed lower letters on it.I turned another page casually, the content was different, and some memories mentioned that he studied with himself when he was young.

Song Xi sneered, and threw the book on the ground, intending to let Mu Ruiyuan go away.

Mu Ruiyuan picked it up, and hurriedly said to Song Xi: "Little uncle, I really know I was wrong, I shouldn't help third sister with messy things. But I really mean it, I really want to help little uncle support ten five--"

Song Xi frowned and glanced at him indifferently.

Mu Ruiyuan quickly pursed his lips, knowing that he had said something inappropriate.

"It's good to go back and think about the past. It's not yet the time for you to come out." Song Xi finally spoke to Mu Ruiyuan, but still drove him away.

Mu Ruiyuan couldn't be bothered anymore, he hesitated for a while, and finally returned home obediently.

……

The first batch of "Great Zhou Dynasty News" was printed with a total of [-] copies. Because of the large content this time, there are five major contents in one copy, and all the newspapers were handed over to Liu Zhongliang of the Ministry of Accounts for distribution.The borders of the capital city and the nearby state capitals were the first batch to receive this issue of the newspaper. The local government closed their doors in response to the order issued by the imperial court. Local people who were literate and knew how to work in agriculture were urgently summoned to go to every village and county in the state to explain the law of farming.Now that it is officially summer time for farming, it is related to the amount of food rations for one's own family, but all ordinary people who are a little bit motivated are willing to come to listen to the lectures and learn.

Some people, after listening to it, went home and saw that there were worms growing on their vegetable leaves, so they followed the method taught by the imperial court, cut some mugwort grass and soaked it in water, and after a few days, they found that it was really effective.The common people were overjoyed, and sighed that the imperial court and local officials were good, and they thought of the people.The local officials were supported and respected by the people, and felt that they had done a great deed, so they worked harder to urge and popularize the methods of farming and farming that were heard in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Of course, in the process of popularization, there will also be cases where the medicine is not suitable for the disease.Therefore, the local officials will learn from lessons and improve when they publicize in the future. They will teach farmers to identify which medicines are only effective against which insects. Don't think that one method can deal with all insect pests.

"Da Zhou Chaowen" also wrote how to cultivate the land, how to fertilize and add manure, and what kind of seeds are suitable for planting and what kind of land is more likely to produce high yields.After the pest removal was effective this time, the farmers felt that it was reliable, and they were willing to take the initiative to learn it later, and wrote down all these things, only to learn and use them in the next year.

But because the contents of the newspapers are extensive and miscellaneous, most farmers are illiterate and unable to remember them.The imperial court also thought of this, and will distribute two newspapers to the literate scholars in the village, and will give them money for lectures, so that they can patiently retell the story for the people in the spring of the coming year.These scholars who have not yet obtained the honor, because they can serve the court and benefit the common people, they all feel it is a matter of pride.Scholars in some places are scrambling to come here, and they need to be assessed and selected by local officials before they can get this enviable job.

A few days later, Jia Amnesty and Liu Zhongliang asked about the popularization situation and heard that the effect was not bad, so they asked Liu Zhongliang to continue to promote it in other farther state capitals.

Since the last time the three new supervisory censors were demoted, there has always been a vacancy for supervisory censors at Yushitai.Jia Amnesty had no intention of including newcomers.

Today, when Shui Rong came to apologize to Jia She with generous gifts, he brought up this matter.

Jia She turned to look at him: "Is this the reason why you have come to me to make amends for five days in a row?"

"You miss me that much?" Shui Rong asked back.

"It's you who acted like this." Jia Amnesty said bluntly, keeping his eyes on King Jing of Beijing.

Shui Rong was stunned, frowned a little annoyed, and after thinking about it, he wanted to say goodbye to Jia She.

Jia Amnesty immediately asked Zhu Mao to send him off.

"You—" Shui Rong was so angry that his face was full of helplessness, but he didn't say anything. He smiled and sat back down again, "You are so boring, but I am just teasing you."

"I'm just a boring person." Jia She said plainly, and brought tea to drink.

Shui Rong smiled and said: "You misunderstood me, I am sincerely apologizing to you these two days. That Mr. Zhen's family affairs really have nothing to do with me. He came to Beijing to visit me with his family two days ago When he saw that I treated him sincerely, he accidentally mentioned to me that his son might work in Yushitai in the future."

"His juren son, Zhen Ke?" Jia She asked.

"Yes, I'm also curious. Zhen Ke's qualifications and talents are not enough. How did she get promoted to the fourth-rank supervisory censor? When I saw you today, I suddenly remembered that you are in charge of the censor platform, so I want to ask you .” Shui Rong said.

Jia Amnesty lowered his eyes and laughed, "I don't know yet, maybe there are people in the court."

"Who? Can Juren be promoted to a fourth-rank official in one fell swoop? I'm really curious." Shui Rong followed with a smile.

Jia Amnesty turned to look at Shui Rong, "So I misunderstood you, I should apologize to you."

"But please don't, I'm embarrassed by you doing this. I know you're still annoyed about what happened that day, and I blamed myself for taking you to such a dirty place. I wanted to vent my anger at you, but that Du Chunxiao doesn't know where to get him, but he's very difficult to deal with." Shui Rong sighed.

Jia Amnesty looked at Shui Rong again, and asked him what he meant.

Shui Rong smiled wryly: "The thugs in Yafenglou are stronger than the guards in my palace."

"Crazy, who told you to beat someone." Jia She scolded him, and seeing Shui Rong looking at him suspiciously, Jia She continued, "I don't mind getting your hands dirty. He's the kind of person who doesn't even bother Pay attention to me. Don't lower my status in vain, making people think that I am robbing people with a young man."

Hearing Jia She's words, Shui Rong hurriedly apologized again, expressing that he was meddling again.He told Jia She not to worry, his subordinates didn't really do anything, and they didn't report their family history. They just went to provoke him, but they got beaten back instead.

Jia She sneered and didn't bother to talk to Shui Rong.

Shui Rong apologized several times, finally got Jia She's forgiveness, and stayed in Rong Mansion for about half an hour before going out.

After coming out of the main entrance of Rong Mansion, Shui Rong walked towards the carriage in a gentle pace, even getting into the carriage was half a minute slower than usual.After getting in the car and exiting the intersection of Ningrong Street, Shui Rong looked out through the window screen, and happened to see a boy in coarse clothes suddenly turn around and face the wall.

Shui Rong played with the jade pendant on his waist, slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

After Hengshu got the news from his subordinates, he told Song Xi about King Beijing's visit to Rongfu again.

Song Xi faced the window with his hands behind his back.

Heng Shu raised his eyes slightly, only to see the cold back of his master.These days, their master has become less and less talkative.He waited for a while, and when he saw that the master had no intention of saying anything, he backed away silently.As soon as he left the door, a guard handed over the secret letter he had just received.

Heng Shu hurried into the room and handed the letter to Song Xi.

Song Xi took a look at Heng Shu, and Heng Shu immediately withdrew with interest.

Song Xifang opened the letter, only two words were written on the letter paper, and there was a strange symbol like a hook.With the previous name, Song Xi can understand that this symbol should express a question.

Song Xi picked up the cinnabar pen, drew a cross on the name, put the letter in another envelope, wrote "Received by Marquis Jia En" on the envelope, and then ordered Hengshu to deliver the letter himself.

Heng Shu couldn't help being surprised when he saw that his master wrote to Mr. Jia again.He didn't expect that Mr. Pardon had said such harsh words before, so that all civil and military officials in the court knew that he had lost face, and some people even whispered and laughed at their lord behind his back. This was something their lord never had before.Their master has humbled to such an extent that they are still writing love letters, intending to reconcile with Grand Master She.

In the past, Hengshu couldn't believe that his noble master would wrong him so much. He felt uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to say much. After receiving the letter, he immediately rode a horse, knocked on the gate of Rongfu, and delivered the letter. After Rongfu, then return the same way.

As Hengshu rode away from the intersection of Ningrong Street, the vendors selling tofu closed their stalls.

Jia Amnesty opened the letter and saw that Song Xi had drawn a big red cross on the name he wrote, and felt that this guy was lazier than himself.At any rate, he still knew how to write the word 'water soluble' with a question mark, but this fellow gave him a cross. Is this revenge for what he said blindly before.

Jia Amnesty immediately researched the meaning of this cross, which should mean "not him".

After Jia Amnesty burned this piece of paper, he also crossed out the name 'Shui Rong' on his own notebook with a cinnabar pen.

The witchcraft case is a trick within a trick, and the mastermind behind the scenes is extremely cautious.

At that time, Jia Amnesty extinguished the case at the first sign. The advantage was that no loss of life was caused, but there were also disadvantages. It was very difficult to follow the clues to find out who was behind the scenes.As soon as Hada died, the clues disappeared, and of course the plan of the people behind the scenes was also destroyed.

If you want this black hand behind the scenes to move again, you must let him see other hopes.

Since the other party targeted Song Xi so much, what happened to Song Xi would definitely attract the attention of the person behind the scenes.For example, the break between himself and Song Xi, in the eyes of that behind-the-scenes person, is definitely a good opportunity that can be used.

However, after waiting for so long, Jia Amnesty did not wait for this person, instead, he became the king of Beijing every day.

King Beijing Jing's initial suspicion was indeed great, but with his current ability, he should not be able to raise a dead man like Hada.Hada appeared in the Zhenyan Tribe two years ago, plus the previous selection training and a series of preparations, the shortest is one year, and it will take at least three years.

Three years ago, King Beijing Jing was only eleven or twelve years old, and he was really a child.With his age, identity and status at that time, I'm afraid it would be difficult to do these things.

Through these few days of contact with Shui Rong, Jia She felt that Shui Rong was not an easy person.On the contrary, he often showed a harmless appearance to people and animals, treated others with a humble and sincere attitude, and never took the airs of the county prince, so it was easy for people to relax their guard against him.Because of his popularity, he did reveal some useful news.However, Jia She didn't understand the purpose of his obsession with him.So Jia Amnesty put another question mark behind the crossed water-soluble name.

Jia Amnesty then crossed the word "Huainan Wang".

After these two days of being in contact with Shui Rong, Jia Amnesty found that Shui Rong only made friends with King Huainan on the surface, and King Huainan was more like a pawn played by him.Just like Song Xi's previous secret, if Shui Rong was really afraid of Huainan King, or if he was really loyal enough to treat him as a friend, he would not have revealed it to him so easily, and would have spoken it out after being lured a little.

It can be seen from this that Shui Rong doesn't value King Huainan.The behind-the-scenes people of the witchcraft case are very cautious, thinking about making plans before acting.And with the level at which King Huainan was played by Shui Rong in applause, it was absolutely impossible for him to plan the witchcraft case, which took three to two years of planning to accomplish.Moreover, according to Jia Amnesty's observation, King Huainan's temperament is indeed straightforward and rude, he is a man with no city.At most, he does some dandy wayward things, not that advanced.

Thinking about the Zhen family, if they happened to be promoted at such a time, as King Beijing Jing said, it would be intriguing.

Jia She immediately picked up a pen and wrote Zhen Ke and his father Zhen She.

Zhen She, Jia Amnesty, had been investigated long ago.It is said that because he was squeezed out in the officialdom in Jiangnan, he resigned in anger and moved his family from Jiangnan to the capital to support his son.A few days ago, because of Zhen Ke's official position, the eldest wife of the Zhen family, Mrs. Tang, has been tossing around in the circle of noble ladies in the capital.Even here in the Rong Mansion, she has made a fuss about it twice.Recently, Jia Amnesty heard that Zhen She was also frequenting the elite circles in the capital, and he was quite pleasing and received a lot of praise.

It seems that the eldest son of the Zhen family is very eager to gain a foothold in the capital.

If this couple can make their Juren son directly promoted to the fourth-rank supervisory censor, then they must have hugged something in the capital.There is absolutely no reason for people to help their son get promoted in vain, so the couple must do something to repay each other.

However, compared to Zhen Ke, Jia She feels that Zhen She has enough qualifications and knowledge. If he is recommended to be an official in Beijing, he will definitely not be of ordinary rank. It takes too much to supervise the censor.Therefore, Jia Amnesty felt that Zhen Ke's matter was nothing, and Zhen She still had to shoulder the important matter.

Jia Amnesty will have to wait and see what wonderful tricks the Zhen family will use to allow Zhen Ke to enter Yushitai as an official.

Wait patiently for a few days, and see what opportunities their father and son have.

……

After Hengshu returned to the Song Mansion, Liu San, the little steward, hurriedly held the horse, and asked with a smile, "Where are you running errands again?"

"Don't mention it." Heng Shu quickly ran into the mansion, went to reply, and then came out.

Liu San came with two roast chickens and a jug of wine, and took Heng Shu to his room for a few drinks.

Liu San frowned and sighed: "I see that the master has been in a bad mood for the past two days, so it's hard for you."

"These two days are thanks to you accompanying me to relieve boredom." Heng Shu laughed and drank a glass of wine.

Liu San poured another cup, "Drink, drink, and rest quickly after drinking, all fatigue and troubles are gone."

Heng Shu responded with a wry smile.

Hengshu tasted very good, so he lay down to rest when he was drunk.After Liu San covered Heng Shu with a quilt, he quietly retreated, and turned back to the main courtyard. He saw that the master's study room was still lit, and a servant came out after cleaning the shredded paper.Liu San hurriedly smiled and asked him if he had eaten, so he took the things in his hand and sent him to eat quickly, "I left the roast chicken in your room."

When the boy heard this, he was overjoyed, thanked Liu San quickly, and went.

Liu San went to the kitchen as usual, hugging the scraps of paper.

……

After Jia Amnesty asked, he learned that no one from the caravan had asked about Hada.

Jia Amnesty guessed that the person behind the scenes knew about Hada's death long ago.This further confirmed Jia She's previous conjecture that this person should be able to find out the news from inside the Rong Mansion or the Song Mansion.

When the person behind the scenes was able to let Hada buy the things sold under Song Xi's property without anyone noticing, Jia Amnesty immediately suspected that this person had planted an eyeliner in Song Xi's mansion.Because these properties of Song Xi inherit the family tradition, most of them are kept secret, and the names may not be under Song Xi's name, such as Yafeng Pavilion, whose nominal owner is Du Chunxiao.These industries have not been directly announced to the public, and it is impossible for ordinary people to know.

There are spies in Song Xi's mansion, and the possibility cannot be ruled out in Rong Mansion.However, given that Jia She was just a useless dandy before, the Rongguo Mansion should not have the value of being placed as a dead man early.So Jia Amnesty felt that even if there were spies in his mansion, they should be bribed only by the temptation of profit.

It's time to swindle this one in your own house.

In the afternoon, Pig Hair carried a man with a black cloth on his head to Rongxi Hall, and happily shouted to Jia She that he had caught an accomplice of Hada.

Jia Amnesty ordered people to close the door immediately.

"Who sent you here?"

"The little one has tea to sell at home, and I'm here to discuss business with Chief Zhenyan."

Then there was the sound of people falling to the ground in the room, and after a while, there was another rustling sound, followed by the voice of pig hair.

"My lord, this person has fixed poison in his rear teeth. Judging from the shape and size, it is exactly the same as Hada, the leader of the Zhenyan caravan. He must be his accomplice!"

Immediately, a corpse was dragged out of Rongxi Hall.

After noon, the courtyard of Rongxi Hall became more relaxed.

After sweeping the yard, Mrs. Lu patted on her clothes, went back to the house with a few handfuls of melon seeds in the corner of her clothes, and kowtowed and chatted with a few housekeepers in the yard.

After knocking the melon seeds, Mrs. Lu said goodbye to those women, and went out through the back door of the Rong Mansion, telling the gatekeeper that she wanted to buy candy for her little grandson.

Jia Amnesty immediately got a report from the secret guard, saying that Mrs. Lu had gone out.

This Mrs. Lu is a lazy, cunning and very money-loving person. She was originally an eyeliner for Mrs. Wang. Jia She kept her at the beginning because she wanted to use it against Mrs. Wang.Later, Mrs. Wang became honest, so she was not treated by Mrs. Wang. Jia Amnesty also forgot that such a person existed, so she took advantage of the trend and stayed in Rongxi Hall.Now it's not unusual for her to be lured by outside interests to become a spy.

Not long after, a secret guard came to report that Mrs. Lu had sneaked into a farmyard, and soon she came out and returned to Rongfu.The secret guards inquired quietly, and there was only one man selling tofu living in the farmyard.Jia Amnesty then told them not to startle the snake, but to follow quietly.

At dawn on the second day, Jia Amnesty got new news.

The man from that farmyard came out late last night and went straight to the backyard of the Zhen family.When it was dawn in the early morning, the carriage of the grand master of the Zhen family came out and went to the residence of Cao Lan, the Minister of the Household Department.

The secret guard who monitored the Zhen family mansion also discovered that two other people were also monitoring the Zhen family mansion and followed them, and the two finally returned to the Beijing Palace.

After hearing these reports, Jia Amnesty felt that this matter was more complicated and interesting.

……

At noon, Jia Amnesty had just finished his official duties at Yushitai, and was about to invite Shangqin Zhonglu to have dinner together, when Shui Rong came, accompanied by people with food boxes.

So Jia Amnesty changed the plan, received Shui Rong in the house, and also ate the food sent by Shui Rong.

Shui Rong also tasted delicious, but after seeing Jia She put down his chopsticks, he also put down his chopsticks.Then he enthusiastically asked Jia She to taste the white wine that their palace bought from Zhenzhen Kingdom.

Jia Amnesty took a sip and said he didn't like to drink.

"It's a pity, I really like the taste." After drinking Shui Rong, he said with a smile that he would not disturb Jia Amnesty, and left.

Jia She squinted at Shui Rong's back, and the doubts between his brows grew deeper and deeper.If the Gu poison case had nothing to do with him, why did he intervene at this time?Jia She couldn't figure it out several times.

In the afternoon, Tan Xuefeng, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, brought Zhen Ke to the Yushitai, and introduced the new supervisory censor to Jia Amnesty with a smile.

Zhen Ke had met Jia Amnesty a long time ago, but now she bowed more respectfully.Jia Amnesty did not show any abnormality, but sent Liang Lewen to take him down to familiarize himself with the situation of Yushitai.Instead, he asked Tan Xuefeng why he was brought here suddenly.

"Could it be that Lord Jia looks down on him?" Tan Xuefeng asked with a smile.

"I agree with the child's conduct, but I just think it's unfair to the other three newcomers under me who have just entered into the position of supervisory censor suddenly. In terms of work, he is a man of Juren background, his talent is not as good as others, and he has no experience in being an official, so why did he want to be directly promoted to the fourth rank?"

Tan Xuefeng laughed, "Cai Feiping and I knew about this matter yesterday, and it wasn't publicized, so it's not surprising that you don't know about it. This Zhen Ke was promoted by the Holy One because he met the peerless opponent left by the late emperor." son."

After Tan Xuefeng said this, Jia She remembered that the late emperor had indeed left a very difficult match.The first emperor also said that if anyone can match up, he will agree to a request of this person as a reward.

But it was also a joke that the late emperor said at the banquet for a while, and now he is gone, but the words are still remembered by many people.If someone really matches this pair, the emperor will agree even if he is in the memory of the late emperor.

"But why didn't you see the imperial decree?" Jia She asked.

"It's not easy to show in the imperial decree that such a matter of getting an official for a pair, so I came here." Tan Xuefeng said with a helpless smile.

The emperor, after everything has been done, he is still afraid that people will laugh at him.

Jia Amnesty agreed, so he didn't say any more.

After seeing off Tan Xuefeng, Jia Amnesty asked someone to investigate the matter carefully.

So it is known that yesterday the emperor chatted with Cao Lan, Minister of the Ministry of Household, Liu Zhongliang, Minister of the Ministry of Household, Hu Wenyao, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and Cai Feiping, a scholar of the Wenhua Palace.When the emperor learned that Zhen Ke had actually spoken the match against the late emperor, he announced to him with interest.Then, considering his talent and learning, and honest nature, he asked him to say a wish.Zhen Ke then said that he hoped the emperor would give his father an official position, saying that his father resigned from office and went to Beijing in order to educate him, and felt that he was not filial.

From this, the emperor knew that he was the son of Zhen She, so he announced Zhen She into the palace.Therefore, the emperor recalled the affection of the old lady of the Zhen family. After investigation, he learned that Zhen She was rejected in the Jiangnan official circles because of his incorruptibility. Both father and son are officials.

Therefore, not only did Zhen Ke become the fourth-rank supervisory censor, but Zhen She also took the opportunity to ascend to the long-vacant position of the Jingying Jiedushi.Of course, a few ministers took advantage of the situation to compliment and praise, which made the emperor appreciate Zhen She more and strengthened his heart to promote him.

Jia Amnesty even asked someone to investigate who was the first person who mentioned Zhen Ke at that time. He thought it was Cao Lan, but soon found out that it was Cai Feiping.Jia Amnesty had no choice but to become suspicious and went to check Cai Feiping one or two.

Jia She understands Cai Feiping's temperament to some extent.Because among acquaintances, it is easier to check the authenticity of the emotions expressed in his micro-expressions.Jia Shesui didn't have to think about any other tricks, he just went straight to Cai Feiping and asked him the details of the time.Cai Feiping warmly invited him to drink tea inside without opening his mouth.

Cai Feiping also mysteriously dismissed the idlers and others, and stretched his neck curiously to ask what happened to Jia She and Song Xi.

Jia She glared at him: "There are many things."

"If you don't tell me, then I can't tell you what you asked me." Cai Feiping shrugged, a little willfully.

"It's up to you to say it or not. Anyway, I won't hide it from you. The emperor asked to dig out the mastermind behind the witchcraft case. Now it happens to find you. If you don't explain, I will write it in the memorial and tell the emperor." Just be clear."

"What witchcraft case? Don't hurt me. I'm such a pure and kind person, how could I do that kind of thing. You can't just target people around Song Xi just because you're having trouble with Song Xi." Cai Feiping put on a face. With an innocent expression, he clutched his chest, telling Jia She not to scare him.

"Then tell the truth." Jia She said.

Cai Feiping thought for a while, "It's just casual chatting. Everyone knows that the first emperor's match is difficult. I didn't match up. I heard that a younger generation matched up right away. I was a little excited and said it naturally."

"How did you hear the news?" Jia She asked.

Cai Feiping felt Jia She's suspicious gaze, rubbed his temples, and thought about it carefully, "It seems that Cao Lan told me, he raised his mouth at first, and then Hu Wenyao asked what pair it was, listen Afterwards, he also thought it was very good, and echoed a few words. I also thought it was good, and I heard that Zhen Ke's character is also good, and the situation was right at the time, so he went along with it."

"How do you know Zhen Ke's character?" Jia She asked again.

"Yeah, how did I know." Cai Feiping thought for a while, patted his thigh, and said to Jia She, "It seems that a few days ago, Zhuo Jing mentioned him to me, listened to him, and kept it in his mind. impression."

Jia Amnesty understood immediately, took his leave immediately, and got up to leave.Cai Feiping didn't agree, and hurriedly pulled him.

"I haven't finished talking yet. What's the matter with you and Mr. Song? Is it possible that I have to choose a position between the two of you in the future?" Cai Feiping asked kindly.

Jia She looked at him helplessly and indifferently.

Cai Feiping was forced by Jia She's expression, and said angrily, "Sometimes you two have really similar tempers, you won't tell me if you ask him, and you won't tell me if you ask me. How can I be so unlucky to be friends with people like you?" , I have to worry about it. If I have the time to learn how to be an official, I still have a chance to be a prime minister."

"Just you?" Jia She sneered, and patted Cai Feiping on the shoulder, telling him not to think too much.

Cai Feiping was stunned for a moment, and when Jia She left, he realized what Jia She meant by "don't think too much". This was clearly a joke that he wasn't prime minister material!Damn it!

Cai Feiping originally wanted to stand with Jia Amnesty, but now that he is so mean to him, it would be better to follow Song Xi, at least the Song family has a deeper foundation, and his sister is still the queen, so it is more reliable to follow him.

Cai Feiping thought so, so he went to Song Xi to complain, complaining that Jia She's attitude towards him was hateful.

Song Xi put down his pen and looked at him indifferently.

Cai Feiping continued to complain: "It's hard for you to be awkward with him. With his temperament, he is really not open. If he is too stubborn, he will make people angry."

Song Xi's eyes turned a little cold.

Cai Feiping was still focused on complaining, didn't notice the changes in Song Xi, and then said to Song Xi: "Now that the civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty know about it, when you quarreled at the palace gate, Jia Amnesty didn't open his face and said that he only knew each other when he was blind." You, you said that you are such a shining person in the eyes of loyal ministers, and you were pulled down from the altar by Jia She all of a sudden, are you wronged? I feel wronged for you!"

"Cai Feiping."

"Hey, what's the matter?" Cai Feiping thought that Song Xi would be moved by his words, so he smiled and looked at Song Xi with bright eyes.

"roll."

After Song Xi finished talking, he lowered his eyes and continued to review the memorial.

Cai Feiping: "..."

After he was stunned for a while, he was so angry that he was about to explode, then he gritted his teeth and turned around and left in aggrieved manner.

In the evening, Song Xi came to Rong Mansion aggressively.

In the Rongxi Hall, after closing the door and Jia Amnesty for a moment, there was the sound of porcelain breaking, and then Song Xi went with a sullen face, and went out even more aggressively.

Holding the broom, Mrs. Lu hid behind the tree outside the courtyard of Rongxi Hall and saw all this, her heart trembled three times.

The next day is the rest day.

Jia Amnesty didn't go anywhere, but the King of Beijing Jing came to the door again.

This time he didn't come by himself, but brought Zhen She, the new envoy of the Beijing Camp, with him.

When Jia's mother heard that the father and son had gained power, she couldn't be negligent. After accepting Zhen She's greeting with a modest attitude, she asked Jia She to entertain him well.

Jia Amnesty ordered someone to hold a banquet in the Rongxi Hall to entertain the two 'distinguished guests'.

Zhen She was the same age as Jia She, although they were about the same age, Jia She looked a few years younger than his peers because of his good skin.Zhen She's complexion was dull and rough, and he had forehead wrinkles, so he looked a few years older than his original age.

However, Zhen She's talent and learning are really good, his speech during the banquet is very appropriate, when he praises others, he uses plain language, but a few words can reach the bottom of the heart.For example, Jia Amnesty settled the peace mission case and published "Great Zhou Dynasty News" since he became the imperial historian.Zhen She was able to point out the key points of each sentence, telling the meaning and benefit of Jia She's every move.Hearing this, Jia Amnesty couldn't help feeling a little happier, and couldn't help chatting with Zhen She a little more.

Zhen She was very modest, and still had to salute a few times before leaving, and asked Jia Amnesty to mention him more in the officialdom in the future.

"Your Majesty Zhen, you are polite, everyone. Actually, I may not be as good as you in the court. I just offended a dignitary two days ago. I would like to advise you two to avoid walking around with me in the future, so as not to get involved." Jia She road.

Shui Rong hurriedly asked: "But he has been making things difficult for you recently?"

Jia Amnesty's face darkened, he gave a wry smile, and did not speak.

Zhen She looked at Shui Rong, and turned to salute Jia Amnesty, "Differences in ways do not conspire with each other, so you don't need to worry too much, Mr. Jia. You have the power to control and supervise the government. He is so powerful. I don't dare to move a first-rank official like you easily, not to mention that you are highly regarded by the emperor. No matter how bad it is, King Jing and I can help. Our three families have a deep friendship since our ancestors, and mutual support is a must Please rest assured, my lord, I, Zhen She, am by no means an ungrateful person."

"Hearing what you said, I feel a lot more at ease, thank you very much." Jia Amnesty thanked Zhen She with his hand, and then watched him and King Beijing leave.

Not long after the two left, a secret guard came to inform Jia Amnesty that their carriage stopped in a secluded alley shortly after leaving the Rong Mansion, and King Bei Jing got into Zhen She's carriage immediately.

Jia Amnesty frowned, really not sure what the King of Beijing was tossing about and what his purpose was.To say he was the mastermind behind the scenes is not enough.Said that he had nothing to do with this case, but he appeared in front of him several times, revealed the clues of Zhen She to him, and sent someone to monitor Zhen She and Cao Lan, but turned around and he was close to Zhen She, it seemed The relationship is very close.

Then there is Cao Lan, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, he has enough status, but Cao Lan's popularity in the court is not very good, so his strength is not enough.What's more, Cao Lan's personality is just like that of Huainan King. He shows many small things on his face, and he doesn't seem like a planner.

Just when Jia She was puzzled, he received a letter.

The letter was still written in Jia Shesui's familiar handwriting, and the content simply described the relationship between Cao Lan and Concubine Xian, the mother of the third prince.

It turns out that Cao Lan and Concubine Xian are playmates of their own sweethearts.Cao Lan's grandmother's sister-in-law's eldest brother's granddaughter is today's concubine Xian.Back then, Cao Lan’s grandmother was just like Jia’s mother today, she liked to gather some children together to make troubles. At that time, when Concubine Xian went to Cao’s house, it was like Shi Xiangyun who often came to Rong’s mansion to stay for three or two months. .So Cao Lan and Concubine Xian got along for a long time at that time.

Jia Amnesty suddenly understood a lot.If this matter was written by Concubine Xian, it would make sense for her to fight for her son who is guarding the mausoleum outside Beijing.Moreover, based on the age and status of Concubine Xian, it is also reasonable to plan a dead man to lurk in the Zhenyan tribe two or three years ago, and wait for the right time to be used in the future.Furthermore, Concubine Xian is very aware of the influence of the Song family on the court.Moreover, Song Xi and the three princes had been at odds for many years, and the ministers in the court mostly followed Song Xi and Prime Minister Wu.Concubine Xian was jealous of his talent, hated him for assisting the fifteenth prince, and made the fifteenth prince's position unbreakable, so she wanted to get rid of him quickly. These are all reasonable logical deliberations.

The most wonderful thing about the witchcraft case is that it is playing tricks by leveraging strength, playing tricks, and after provoking conflicts between the two countries, first put the blame on Prince Zhenyan, and then pass it on to Song Xi.

And this kind of situation of provoking conflicts between the two countries to benefit from it seems to be a very scheming strategy, and it is easy to make people think that it is something that people like Song Xi can do.

Once the incident happened, those "clues and horses" in the warehouse of the Zhenyan caravan were found, vaguely pointing to Song Xi, but even if it was not considered evidence, the world would probably believe that it was Song Xi who did it.After all, he is so intelligent and talented, if he really leaves ironclad evidence
