For the emperor, after several years of dormancy, he finally seized the opportunity to make a comeback.Looking at the Supreme Emperor is still good, but after this incident, there will be no more troubles in Ping'an Prefecture, and no longer jumping out to threaten his imperial power. This is what he really wants.

To be able to come to this day, on the one hand, he was able to endure himself and his methods were not bad, and on the other hand, Jia She gave him a warning through the Xing family-Lin Ruhai line, so that he could make preparations in advance.

Although it is said that without Jia Amnesty's warning, the emperor could win, but the price is definitely more than that.Not to mention that Jia Amnesty handed in the list.

Today, too many people have fallen in the court, and too many positions have been vacated. Now, what the emperor needs most is not to continue, but to stabilize the court situation.After all, there are alien races outside the country's gates.

What is the most effective way to stabilize the court?Naturally, it is to find someone to show kindness to, to show your magnanimity, even let go of the culprit, let alone other people.Prevent other officials from jumping over the wall for fear of being liquidated.

Of course, this candidate can be chosen from among the four kings and eight princes who have been convicted, any family can be used, any one can be used, including Niu Xiu, who has already been favored by the emperor.

But the emperor had never thought of picking a benefactor from the Jia family before.The reason is just as Xing Xiuyan once guessed, because of Jia's family's behavior of betting everywhere, and also because of Jia Yuanchun and Jia Baoyu's good luck and great fortune!

Before Xing Xiuyan entered the palace, the emperor just wanted to uproot the Jia family!The Jia family pushed all the crimes on Jia Amnesty's head and wanted Jia Zheng to continue to be an official, which was also seen by the emperor.

He didn't want to make the Jia family happy!

Although Xing Xiuyan's request made the emperor uncomfortable, but thinking that Jia Amnesty had handed over the list, the Supreme Emperor's calculations naturally came to nothing. Even if he spared Jia Amnesty, as long as the Supreme Emperor knew about it, Jia Amnesty's life would still be the same. It won't be easy.That being the case, why not give the Xing family a face?

The emperor quickly issued an edict, to the effect that the Xing family proposed that the Jia family's crimes were all done by Jia Zheng and his wife. As long as you check the Jia family's servants and their in-laws, you will know who really dealt with them.You also serve snacks.

Then?

Then the imperial guards rushed into the house of the Lai family, the Zhao family, Zhou Rui's house, and other Jia family slaves and their relatives, such as Zhou Rui's son-in-law Leng Zixing's house.

Just like Mammy Lai's grandson Lai Shangrong, who was registered as a good citizen from birth, these slaves have already earned enough money from Jia's house to arrange a way out for themselves, so everyone knows that these people are servants of Jia's house , but according to the procedures, they are good citizens. The Jia family has collapsed, and they are not relatives of the Jia family. In addition, they are slaves, and they are mostly locked up at the prison temple. Someone with good hands and eyes has already bribed the jailer to let him go. The family bought it back.

Like Nanny Lai, she has long been the old lord of the family.When Jia's family was rich, she would come in with a cane from time to time to ask Mu Jia to talk with Jia Mu, and from time to time, she would give Jia Mu some gadgets and gifts to please Jia Baoyu. Qingwen was one of these little gifts back then. one.

Lai Shangrong prepared the money early, and bought Lai Nanny, Lai Butler, and others back. After closing the door, it was still a family reunion, and Lai Nanny was still the old lord at home.

How did Lai Shangrong and others expect that the imperial guards would target them!Because they didn't take precautions, the whole family of Lai's family was caught straight, and none of them escaped.

And the imperial guards didn't expect that they would find several imperial gifts that originally belonged to the Jia family in Leng Zixing's antique shop!

It goes without saying what crime it is to lose the imperial bestowal.

Because Leng Zixing was Zhou Rui's son-in-law, and Zhou Rui's family was Mrs. Wang's companions, these few imperial gifts were classified as lost from Jia Zheng's hands.

Whoever loses it is responsible.

This is the imperial approval of the emperor.

This also determined Jia Zheng's fate.

The second wave of investigation results from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice also came out: Zhou Rui sponsored the loan sharking business, and Wang Xifeng was the mastermind only as an accomplice to Mrs. Wang.

The properties of the wealthy slaves of the Jia family were also listed in a list and reported to the palace.

Seeing Zhou Rui's family's possessions exceeding 30 yuan, even the emperor's expression changed!

This is still one of the house slaves!

There is also the big house of the Lai family, the back garden is half the size of the Grand View Garden!Their family was originally a servant of Jia's family. Where did they get so much money?

The tree fell and scattered.

Do not,

It should be said that the tree fell and the hozen died.

When the Jia family fell, so did the servants of the Jia family.

These house slaves have been in the Jia family for decades and know many things about the Jia family. In order to get rid of the crime, they all broke the news crazily.

The revelations of these servants made everyone focus on Mrs. Jia Zhengwang and his wife.Of course, the decisive event was that Jia Amnesty directly broke Jia Lian's leg so that the charge of colluding with Ping'an State could not be slapped on their father and son.

In the end, during the interrogation by the three divisions, Jia Lian had something to do, most of which was caused by Wang Xifeng.Whether it is attempting to murder Zhang Hua or making people report Jia Lian's family filial piety to stop his wife and remarry, it is not a small crime in this world.

As for Jia Amnesty, the public result of the interrogation by the three divisions is that since he has been at home for more than 20 years, he has done nothing except hold girls and play with antiques!The seal of the Rongguo Mansion is not in his hands either, and he can't do anything, so what happened in the past [-] years really has nothing to do with him.Even Sansi can only say that he is incompetent, unable to remonstrate with his mother and restrain his family members, other than that, he has no other crimes.

Jia Amnesty is fine, and Mrs. Xing is also fine.The couple were rescued in the end, but Jia Amnesty became a commoner completely, not to mention not having a copper coin on his body, and was punished by the imperial staff of twenty.

Jia Amnesty is fine, and Jia Cong is naturally fine, not even getting rid of his reputation as a scholar.Only Jia Lian was dragged down by Wang Xifeng, and Wang Xifeng died in the Prison Temple after all, but Jia Lian was about to be exiled.

As for Jia Zheng, there are many things.Not to mention the loss of imperial gifts, things like porridge officials and nobles, collusion with cronies, etc. are all related to him, as well as things like champering lawsuits to kill people, and giving usury to exploit ordinary people.

In the end, Jia Zheng was imprisoned in death row and awaited to be executed in the autumn—because it took years to investigate the property of Jia’s many slaves—Ms. Wang and Jia Zhen were exiled for eight hundred miles, and both Jia Lian and Jia Rong He was exiled for three hundred miles, while Jia Baoyu was kept in prison temple.In name, he was writing anti-poetry, and there were other things that hadn't been investigated, but in fact, everyone knew that the root of it was still in his broken rock.

However, Jia She was not charged with other crimes, but there was one thing that had to be resolved.

That is shortfall.

When Jia Daishan died back then, the Jia family owed more than 200 yuan to the state treasury, and they never paid it back.As a result, Jia Yuanchun became the imperial concubine later, and the Jia family built the Grand View Garden and borrowed one or two million taels of silver from the treasury one after another.In this way, the Jia family owed the royal family nearly 300 million taels of silver.

If the money is not paid off, the Jia family will be sold by officials as soon as they are young and old!

Jia's mother passed out immediately.

Mrs. Xing was very clever once.She immediately yelled, saying that the deficit handed down by her ancestors would be borne by the couple. She had nothing to say, but the money Mrs. Jia Zhengwang owed for the construction of the Grand View Garden had nothing to do with them.

She asked for a separation and settlement of debts.

Mrs. Xing is not stupid, and Mrs. Wang is even more so.She knows exactly what it means to be in so much debt.So she hugged the unconscious Jiamu and cried in the courtroom.

That was the last time they went to court.

Mrs. Wang is good at counting and can act, but the problem is: ordinary people like this, but the officials of the Ministry of punishment don't.

To put it bluntly, after staying in places such as the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple for a long time, I have a different understanding of the ethical rights and wrongs of the world from others.Mrs. Wang hugged Jia Mu and cried, and she might feel sympathy for the poor and weak, but in front of the important officials of the third division, they could only sneer:

——If I knew this earlier, why did I have to do it in the first place!If it weren't for your schemes for the title and family property, which caused endless infighting in the family, your Jia family might not have ended up where it is today!You cry a fart!

Mrs. Wang thought it would be useful to cry, but the officials of the Ministry of Punishment had already agreed to the application with a firm heart and then helped to submit the imperial approval.

As far as the emperor is concerned, he is also short of money. If Jia amnesty and Jia Zheng are not allowed to separate the family, it is tantamount to not being able to collect a single copper coin, but if the two brothers are allowed to separate, they may be able to recover hundreds of thousands.

How would he choose?

The emperor replied:

——In view of the fact that Mrs. Wang emptied the treasury of the Rongguo Mansion's treasury when she was in charge of the Rongguo Mansion, the brothers and family counted as half of the property confiscated from the Jia family and Jia's slaves.As for the separation of the family, according to what Jia She's wife said, Jia Yuanchun's debts before becoming a concubine belonged to Jia She, and Jia Yuanchun's debts after becoming a concubine belonged to Jia Zheng.Deadline for repayment.

Simple and crude.

Because it is too troublesome to find out who owns the property that the Jia family did not confiscate, and the imperial court does not have so many people to do this, so it is better to execute it so simply and rudely.

However, the Jia family's confiscated property also included the dowry private house of Jia Muwang's wife Li Wan and others.To repay the shortfall, it is naturally impossible to return their dowry private houses.

The box is full of gold and silver, and in a blink of an eye beggars are slandered by everyone.

So what about the private house that Mrs. Jia Muwang and Li Wan have saved up for a lifetime?It's just empty-handed, and it ends up being ridiculed.

As for Mrs. Xing, I heard that they only needed to repay 17 taels of silver in the end, so they simply borrowed money from their younger brother and repaid the shortfall.

She watched the household officials cancel Jia She's house's IOU in person, and burst into tears. She had cried enough, and helped Jia She to leave with Jia Cong and Wang Shanbao's family.

Mother Jia wanted to help Mrs. Jia Zhengwang repay the deficit, and she didn't stop her, but since Mother Jia wanted to help Mrs. Jia Zhengwang repay the deficit, she couldn't control Mrs. Jia anymore.

Her brother's money was also borrowed, and he owed millions of dollars!There is no spare energy to help Mrs. Jia Zhengwang and his wife pay back the deficit!

Jia's mother could only find Lin Ruhai, and Lin Ruhai simply brought over Jia Min's dowry private house that had been sealed up all this time, and also paid 5 taels of silver, 5000 taels to Jia She, and 5000 taels. [-] taels were sent to Jia Zheng.

When Jia Min was married to the most prominent Jia family, her dowry could be said to be a lot of red makeup. In addition, she has been the mistress of the Lin family for more than [-] years, and she has a full private house.But Jia Min's dowry and private houses are all added up, and if he dies, he can only pay back one-third of Jia Zheng's shortfall!

In the end, the Jia family failed to repay all the losses. Li Wan, Jia Lan Tanchun and Jia Huan could only be sold. At the same time, there were You's mother-in-law, Jia Qiangxichun, Jia Rui and other members of the Jia family. tribe.

As for Jia Baoyu, because of his stone, he is not eligible to be listed for sale.

After getting this result, Jia's mother passed out again.

She is old, and she already has some old people's illnesses, and these days in prison have caused her to suffer a double blow physically and mentally. Now her beloved young son is in death row and waiting to be executed by Qiu Hou. In the prison, I don't know if there will be a day when he comes out, the rest of the younger son's children and grandsons will sell their officials, and Jia's mother will have a stroke immediately.

cerebral hemorrhage,

death.

Mrs. Jia Shexing had to stay out to take care of Jia Mu's funeral. The Lin family and the Xing family also tried their best to help, but it was just a help.They could help buy back the family members of the Jia family, but in the end there were only a few people who bought them back.

After repaying the shortfall, Jia Amnesty was able to obtain the household registrations of himself and Mrs. Xing Jia Cong, and got a report from Grandma Liu to find Sister Qiao back.But the rest of them, although they were bought by the Lin family and the Xing family and sent to Madam Jia Shexing, they could only be enslaved after all, and they were still official slaves.

After the household registration was settled, Jia Amnesty helped Ling go south and sent Jiamu Yeluo back to her roots.

After the Zhen family, the Jia family is another century-old official family that has completely disappeared from the court.

Most of the descendants of the family were sold into slavery by officials!If there are sacrifices and people, the family will have a chance to make a comeback. If there are no people—basically become official slaves—what hope does the family have?
