The Red Mansion's Late Welcome Spring

The emperor probably thought that the New Year's Eve should be celebrated by ransacking the house... So the Jia family only had a few months of peace and stability, and even before the Lantern Festival was over, the raiding team ushered in. The most ridiculous thing was that the leader of the team was The king of Beijing County who used to be called brother and brother with Jia Baoyu.

The king of Beijing County was quite polite, and asked the concierge and the servants in the mansion to inform Jia Zheng and Jia Baoyu and others of their arrival. He first announced that the emperor had deprived Jia Zheng of his title, and committed murder of the royal heir, usury, bribery, and courtship. Cliques and other crimes...Of course the stupid Jia Zheng never knew how to make friends with "promising" officials. The last item was added because Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang hid the property of the previous Zhen family. count.

Then the king of Beijing County was stunned by the crowd, ordered the guards on the side to detain Jia Zheng, and said indifferently: "Master Zheng, if you come here today to seize the property of the two prefectures of Rongning and Ningxia, I'm afraid there will be some offence." gone."

"Why did the prince bring so many people to raid our house? We didn't do anything wrong." Jia Baoyu asked incomprehensibly.

"This king is acting according to the order. If the second master Bao doesn't understand something, you have to ask your master." The king of Beijing County didn't see the usual familiar tone of voice to Jia Baoyu, but it was a strange call. People are cold.

Jia Zheng himself didn't understand, when did he murder the royal heir?And when did you exploit usuriously and monopolize lawsuits?And where do you start making friends?He doesn't know anyone in the officialdom at all, okay? !

"My lord, my lord, tell the lord quickly, the emperor must have made a mistake!" Jia Baoyu watched the guards enter the room one by one, tugged at Jia Zheng's sleeve in panic, and pleaded.

"My lord, this..." Jia Zheng also wanted to say something, but where should he start?

The officials in charge of counting and copying first searched out the account books recording the public property of the Rongguo Mansion, and then dug up the records of each individual's private property from the courts, and checked and submitted them one by one.

Listening to the official's report to King Beijing, Jia Zheng's legs went limp. As expected...Although he didn't do anything, the person next to him did everything.

In Jiamu's courtyard, Mrs. Wang, Shi Xiangyun, Jia Tanchun and other female relatives in the inner house were all invited here by the maid in the mansion ordered by the guards. Everyone was panic-stricken and could only turn to Jiamu for help.

But Jia Mu closed her eyes, sitting there twisting the rosary, only her slightly trembling hands faintly revealed her fear.

"Old lady, you should think of a way. Those officers and soldiers shouldn't come to raid our house! Don't we always stick to our duties? And Baoyu was caught by them and taken to the front yard. Will he be okay?" Shi Xiangyun squatted in front of Jiamu's knee in fear and cried.

"It's going to be fine, it's not going to happen. When the Zhen family was raided, didn't they let a few women and children go? The master of the Zhen family was also exiled to the border, and he is still alive and well now. Aren't we like If the Zhen family can become the local king like that, the emperor will not really embarrass us." Jiamu suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and replied in a cold voice.

Jia's mother used to be self-righteous, and when she saw a group of guards coming to Jia to bring them all back to the prison of Dali Temple, she completely collapsed. The majestic first-rank imperial order is now a prisoner?How can Jia Mu, who has lived a rich and rich life for decades, accept this?

After all the people were escorted into the prison, Mrs. Wang looked at the other side... Isn't it just Youshi and the others from Ningguo Mansion?All of a sudden, in the prison, only crying and complaining were heard from both sides. Although the Ningguo Mansion was not charged with champerty lawsuits and usurious exploitation, what Jia Zhenjia Rong and his sons did to Qin Keqing back then was shameful. The emperor still kept this matter in mind, so a crime of disrespect was properly settled. In addition, the crime of civil strife, which was called in ancient times, was more than just ransacking the house. I am afraid that these two people may be sentenced to beheading.

However, Youshi doesn't know these things. Compared with Mrs. Wang, the chief culprit who harmed the Rongguo Mansion, she is really innocent, just like Xingshi was cowardly when she married Jia She, and Youshi didn't say anything wrong Youshi didn't even dare to refute to her husband, but if you want to say what Jia Zhen and his son did to Qin Keqing at that time, Youshi really didn't know anything, but it might not be.

After Mrs. Wang and You Shi cried for a while, You Shi said inexplicably: "Why don't you see Mrs. She? Doesn't it mean that everyone in Rongguo Mansion has been detained?"

"Ah?! That's right! Why did the emperor let them go? Isn't this inappropriate? The elder is also from our Rongguo Mansion!" Mrs. Wang was also reminded by You Shi, and she realized that Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng were not here. traces.

"Ma'am, you're confused. The Elder Master and we separated long ago. Now they are just Jia's family. If they want to be famous, they will just call them Jia Zhengshi's mansion. They have nothing to do with us." Kneeling at Jia Jia Tanchun, who was serving by his mother's side, explained indifferently.

"Damn girl! Whose daughter are you? Are you speaking for someone else?" Mrs. Wang scolded bitterly, as if she never thought that Jia Tanchun would lose face like this.

"I'd rather not be the daughter of this family..." Jia Tanchun didn't say anything, and lowered his head sadly...but he thought so in his heart.

Jia Tanchun is 17 years old this year, but not to mention that there is no marriage, and he has never even done a ceremony. Mrs. Wang doesn't take this daughter seriously at all, but... Lin Daiyu, who is about the same age as her, got married the year before last Yes, the one who married is said to be a promising royal child.

Jia Xichun on the side also looked indifferent. In her heart, she had long regarded herself as having no relatives and no reason, but an orphan who lived in Rongguo's mansion. Not long after the death of Concubine Xiande last year, Jia Jing also suddenly died of a sudden illness. Of course, this 'severe illness' was only on the surface, and no one dared to admit that Jia Jing himself ate the mercury that would kill people, so he died accidentally.

So Jia Xichun doesn't have any marriage yet, and it's morally justified, because the three-year filial piety... Who dares to say that she is not?

Jia Yingchun also reminded Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng that after the catastrophe of the Rongning and Ningfu, they are doomed to be saved, but according to the precedent of the Zhen family, the members of the Jia family should not lose their lives, and they should try to keep them away. Send it away. Of course, if you are lucky, it would be better if Jia's mother is better, so they don't have to worry about Jia Zheng's family. Anyway, the family has been separated for many years, and Jia Amnesty naturally has no obligation to support Jia Zheng's family for the rest of their lives. If you can give them a sum of money to live on, it is considered as the best of humanity.

Although Jia Amnesty was not implicated, he also knew that Rongning and Ningfu could not escape this time, and he did not want to go through this muddy water because of his selfishness, but because the eyes of the civil and military officials of the court were too...enthusiastic...so he still I can't help but ask for favor for Jia Zheng's family. As for Jia Zhen?It's not that he doesn't know what crime the family really committed. Even the honorable princess dares to get involved at will, and he doesn't even think about it, even if it is not officially canonized into the royal jade plate. But that's still royal blood, okay? !Can it make you toss like this?So let's go to whichever side dies faster!

Lin Ruhai also didn't dare to stay out of the matter, but he didn't dare to speak out, so he approached Jia Amnesty, and after thinking about it in private, they went to intercede with the emperor specifically for Jia Zheng and Jia Mu, who seemed to be easier to deal with....

After the emperor made two rounds of discounts, Jia Amnesty went up for the third round, and then he sneered and ordered all the female family members of the Jia family to remove Mrs. Wang who was sentenced to beheaded for a heinous crime, and the rest were: Jia Mu, Shi Xiangyun, You Shi , Jia Tanchun, Jia Xichun and others were all innocent and dismissed, but all the male members of the Jia family only released Jia Baoyu and Jia Huan. As for Jia Zheng?The emperor felt that this man was living a worthless life. The property in the mansion was held in the hands of a woman. He didn't care about it. Years, 20 years later, if Jia Zheng is still alive, he will show kindness and allow him to come back for the elderly, while Jia Zhen and his son will be sentenced to beheaded in autumn, and they will not even have the chance to be exiled for three thousand miles.

Although the Jia family has been released, the current Jia family does not have a male master. It is impossible for the female family members to rely on Jia Baoyu and Jia Lian, so their new home depends on Jia She, who got the news first, sent Jia Lian to go. The ones I found, not to mention the original Rongning and Ningfu, probably not even half of Jia She's family, Jiamu, Youshi, Shi Xiangyun and the maids around them, more than a dozen people are very crowded in one. Three times into the courtyard, there were always a few trivial matters that made these wives and girls quarrel endlessly. Jiamu, who had long been unable to bear the torment, fell ill and fell ill in bed within two days after listening to those gossips.

Jia Amnesty thought about taking Jia Mu over to take care of her, but Jia Mu proposed to let Jia Baoyu and the others live together, but when Jia Amnesty heard this, she quit immediately, because even if Jia Baoyu was not fatherless and motherless, at least she would He's already married, so why should he support Jia Baoyu's family of ten or so people? !Doesn't Jia Baoyu know how to make money by himself?

Jia Amnesty didn't want Jia Baoyu to go to Jia's house for free, and Jia's mother naturally didn't want to live a good life. She just insisted that Jia Baoyu should not be wronged, but no one could understand what Jia's mother was thinking. Even though they have reached such a point, do you think Jia Baoyu has the ability to make the Jia family turn over in the mud?

Under Jia Amnesty and Jia's mother's insistence, Jia Amnesty could only take a step back and send money to You Shi every month, so that You Shi could keep an eye on the expenses of the whole family. Only Youshi is still a little sensible...

In the end, the emperor mercifully returned all the private houses of Mrs. Jia and other female relatives. Only Mrs. Wang's private house money was confiscated into the treasury and not returned because Dali Temple officials believed that it was illegal and ill-gotten wealth. .

After the Jia family got back the money from Jia Mu's private house, they were finally able to live a decent life, but Jia Mu's condition became serious day by day, and the money spent on medicinal materials was not a small sum. Even with the assistance of Jia She and the Lin family Support, until half a year later, when Jiamu finally died, more than half of Jiamu's private money was born.

Youshi looked at Jia Baoyu who was crying so badly, she sighed faintly, fortunately the emperor had already withdrawn Jiamu's first-rank edict, otherwise how would she have the ability to handle it according to the regulations?Now I just go to a few relatives to inform, and I will give an explanation to hold a few more religious ceremonies, but what about in the future?

The most troublesome thing for Youshi is that according to strict calculations by Duke Ningguo, only she and her younger sister Jia Xichun are left, and Jia Xichun is not too young. What kind of family did the concubine promise to.

As for Jia Tanchun, who was several floors away, Youshi never thought of thinking about her. She has both her own brothers and her biological mother and sister-in-law, no matter how bad it is... Jia Zhengshi is still her uncle, and those people will always help her. She thought about it one or two times. There should be no reason to entrust her lifelong affairs to her sister-in-law, right?
