Jia Rong, the smiling tiger of the Red Chamber

When Jia Rong came out of the Yangzhou yamen, Wu Yahe was already waiting outside the gate.

"Did you get the things?" Jia Rong asked.

Wu Ya nodded: "I have already got the words to return to the master." A trace of embarrassment and embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face, "But because something went wrong in the middle. Tie Sheng has already got the news." No wonder the Tie family can Becoming the biggest salt merchant in Yangzhou city, and even promoting his own sister-in-law to the position of judge, he is indeed a cunning and cunning person. If they hadn't had internal support in the mansion, there is really no guarantee that they can get out of the Tie family at this time. Had to go to Half-Life.

"It's okay. Anyway, he can't jump around today." Jia Rong narrowed her eyes and said.

Hearing Jia Rong's words, Wu Ya breathed a sigh of relief, he was really scared just now, if his master's plan was ruined because of his momentary carelessness and carelessness, he would be to blame for death.

"By the way, is there any news from the emperor?" Jia Rong asked again.

Wu Ya replied: "Returning to the master, there was a letter sent by Fei Ge two days ago, saying that the imperial decree is already on the way. According to the situation, it can arrive in at most two days. You only need to grasp the time. If you have a good sense of proportion, there will be no problem."

"Okay, I got it. I'll leave the things with you first." Looking back, looking at the more than 20 yamen servants following behind him, he pointed to the person in the front and said, "Come here and lead the way, go Iron family."

The person whose name was called by Jia Rong was surprised at first, but he was clever, and he quickly realized that he walked up to Jia Rong, bowed and said, "It's Master Jia, this way please. "There are not many people with the surname Tie in Yangzhou, and the most famous one is the Tie family, a salt merchant.Lu Hui, the son-in-law of the Tie family, was arrested by Jia Rong just now. Now that he is going to Jia's house, who else is there besides the salt merchant Tie's family?It seems that the Tie family, which has been entrenched in Yangzhou for many years, is going to be in trouble.

It's very strange to say that there is no trace of rumors, and the imperial envoy Master Jia just made trouble like this.It seems that there is incredible evidence in this hand!

All the way to the iron house.

This Tie family is located in the west of the city, and the area of ​​the mansion is huge, his family alone occupies most of the street.There are two lifelike stone lions standing in front of the gate. Among them, the eyes of the stone lions are actually inlaid with opals, and the four feet are also painted with gold paint, which shows the wealth of the Tie family.Although there were only a few janitors guarding the front door, it looked a little cold and lonely, but looking in from the gate, one can vaguely see that the pavilions and pavilions inside are majestic, rich and luxurious.

"I don't know which expert is here? The villain can go over and tell one or two." Jia Rong led the people up the steps, and immediately a doorman walked over. Although Jia Rong was wearing casual clothes, his clothes were extraordinary. , Jia Rong was followed by a group of official servants dressed in yamen servants.If the guard at the gate didn't have two points of vision, he wouldn't have been sent here to guard the gate.Immediately bowed and said in a respectful tone.

Wu Ya immediately stepped forward, with a stern manner, and sternly shouted: "Which onion are you? You dare to ask my uncle's name. You don't want to get out of here. Don't get in the way here."

"Guan Yan, tell them to be more honest." Jia Rong didn't raise her eyebrows, said a word to Wu Ya, and walked in.

After receiving the order, Wu Ya immediately executed it. Although his kung fu is still inferior to Wu Dian's, it is still good. At least it is more than two points better than Zhi Qiu and Guan Yan.As for the guards at the door, they are just ordinary people and have no kung fu, so Wu Ya has already solved the problem with just a little kung fu.

Everyone had acupuncture points pressed and was unable to move.

"Okay, let me carry these people into the mansion, put them at the door first, and close the door by the way. Your lord is here to deal with things, so it's not easy to be disturbed by others." Wu Ya turned his head to the one who was obviously the leader. The guard said in a low voice.

"Yes."

Jia Rong was eye-opening along the way.He boasted that since he became Jia Rong, he has seen many places, even the palace, and he would go in from time to time.Although he has never been to the harem, he has been to the Imperial Garden and Qianqing Palace more than once.

It is also extremely rich and luxurious.

But these, after meeting the Tie family, Jia Rong felt that they were all going to back off.

Along the way, the words rich, noble and luxurious are no longer enough to describe the Tie family.Extravagant, absolutely extravagant home.

The colorful glazed tiles on the eaves, under the sunlight, are colorful and icy, which is really beautiful, and even a little eye-catching.The footsteps are also marble, not the blue bricks laid in ordinary mansions.There are also various blooming flowers on both sides of the road, many of which are famous.

Walking this way, because it was in the outer courtyard, there were quite a few young men in green clothes walking back and forth, and when they saw Jia Rong came over aggressively with a large group of people.Those who winked immediately knelt down, lowered their heads, and dared not speak.As for some ignorant ones (there are quite a few of them), they would naturally end up being acupointed by Guan Yan, and then tied up by the yamen servants behind them.

"Who are you? How dare you break into my Iron Mansion?" When I walked to a courtyard in the outer courtyard, I saw a man in his early forties, dressed in royal blue brocade clothes, who looked a little wretched, but his expression was a A middle-aged man with the appearance of 'I am a master' came over angrily.But after seeing the yamen guards behind Jia Rong, his mouse eyes flickered, and his tone softened, "Dare to ask this master? You broke into my iron mansion without knowing how, but what's the matter?"

This person's name is He Ming, and he is the second steward of the Tie Mansion, and the brother-in-law of Tie De, the second master of the Tie family, and he is very valued by Tie De.The status in the Tie family is not low, and some poor maids and errand servants would call him "Uncle He" when they saw him.

No matter in her previous life or in this life, Jia Rong was always an appearance association.Of course, Jia Rong's appearanceism is not too serious. For him, you don't have to be pretty, but at least you have to make him look pleasing to the eye.And the purpose of this middle-aged man in front of him, let alone Jia Rong, is not pleasing to the eyes of other people.

Therefore, Jia Rong almost only glanced at He Ming, and then cast aside her gaze, "My Tie Mansion" is just a domestic servant of the Tie family, and he dared to say such words, and he alone He knew that the slaves of the Tie family were not much better than those in the Rongguo mansion.

Thinking about the criminal evidence of the Tie family that was found out, many of them were probably committed by these bold servants.

He turned his head and winked at Wu Ya.

Wuya immediately took a step forward, and raised his voice and said: "The imperial envoy was ordered to arrest people. The head of the Tie family, Tie Sheng, his younger brothers Tie De, Tie Zhang, Tie Li, Tie Hua, Tie Zhen, his fourth son, and his tenth nephew, will be sent immediately. Detain, and the rest of the women's family members will be moved to a courtyard to wait for their release."

"Are you talking nonsense? My Tie family has never committed any crimes. How can you talk nonsense to get people here?" He Ming's expression changed when he heard Guan Yan's words, and he shouted in shock.

Wu Ya immediately said: "How can you talk nonsense about such a thing. Take action." He turned around and waved his hand at the yamen servant, "What are you still doing here? Do it."

The yamen servant who received the order immediately set his hands on it.

Afterwards, the Tie family was full of hustle and bustle, and the crackling sound quickly spread throughout the Jia's mansion, screaming, scolding, roaring, all kinds of voices intertwined together, not to mention how lively it was.

"Wu Ya, I asked you to invite General Zhou who was stationed outside the city, and asked him to borrow some soldiers. What would he say?" Jia Rong listened to the noisy voice, turned her head and asked.

The people he brought over were only more than 20 yamen servants.The Tie family is not small just by looking at it. There are six households living in the mansion now. There are at most 14 males alone, and 12 females. There are also daughters-in-law and grandchildren. Prosperity.

Now because Tie Sheng's mother is still there, there is no separation and they all live in Tiefu.

In addition to the decent master, there are also several aunts and concubines who are connected with the room, plus a number of maids, women, and servants who should serve.

Adding up the top and bottom of this mansion, there are not four hundred, but three hundred.

Just relying on the yamen servants he brought over is not enough to accomplish anything at all.Therefore, when Jia Rong confessed that Wuya used to take the evidence of the account books of the Tie family, he also asked him to take the "Longqi Order" given by Emperor Longqi to General Zhou, the garrison outside the city, and borrow a team. come over.

Wu Ya replied: "This subordinate has already agreed with General Zhou, but he needs to verify some things. When he is sure, he will send someone over. Looking at the current time, he will come over in a moment at most. "

Jia Rong nodded, "Send someone to guard the gate. Once someone comes, bring them here immediately."

"Yes."

"What's going on here? Who told you to do this? It's lawless. Do you know where this is? Stop it, stop it for me." A person ran over.

About forty years old, of medium build, dressed in brocade clothes and fireworks, on the edge of the clothes, there is actually a circle of cloud patterns embroidered with gold thread, his facial features look a bit refined, but now his expression Ferocious, but it doesn't quite match his elegant face.It was Tie Sheng, the head of the Tie family.

"Tie Sheng, Patriarch of the Tie family?" Jia Rong looked at him with a half-smile, and said so.

Tie Sheng obviously also saw Jia Rong, and immediately walked over quickly, angrily said: "Who told you to bring people to my Tie house to make trouble? You don't want to die, do you? Dare to act wildly in my Tie house..." If it was normal If so, Tie Sheng must be able to see something, but not long ago, some of the accounting books he hid were stolen by someone?He was investigating, and something like this happened again?It gave him a bad feeling in his heart.No matter how patient he is, he can't hold back at this time, not to mention that as the head of the Tie family, he has always been flattered when he goes out. The tone of voice should also be polite.

"I came to your Tiefu, why? I want to know what happened? I will help you. Wu Ya, take out the things and let Tie Sheng see clearly? What kind of crime did he commit?" Jia Rong looked at Tie Sheng, who was somewhat stern, said in a cold voice.

"Yes."

As Wu Ya took out the basic account book from his arms, Tie Sheng's complexion suddenly turned dark.Looking at Jia Rong, the anger turned into panic, "So you stole the account book?" Didn't Jia Rong come here to seek medical treatment for his father?He has been here for so many days, and there is no movement, why is he suddenly in trouble now?Could it be that he has been keeping a low profile these days?

"Since you dared to write it down at the beginning, you must be prepared for today? I am only following orders here. What grievances do you have? When you arrive in the capital and meet the Holy One in the future, it will not be too late to make grievances. But at this moment , I also hope Patriarch Tie will cooperate, otherwise, if something bad happens, it will not be beautiful." Jia Rong said coolly.

Hearing Jia Rong's words, Tie Sheng turned pale again, "My lord? This is impossible?" Looking at Jia Rong's empty hand, he seemed to have found a bit of confidence, "You said you were acting under orders? What about the imperial edict? The warrant Woolen cloth?"

"Of course there are." He looked sideways at Wu Ya.

Wu Ya immediately took out a scroll of imperial decree.Of course, this imperial edict was not an imperial edict to confiscate the family, but an imperial edict to appoint Jia Rong as an imperial envoy.Now it's just used to fool things.Anyway, Emperor Longqi has already agreed with it, and the real imperial decree is already on the way, and it will arrive early tomorrow morning at the latest.

Seeing this Tie Sheng, he immediately became flustered, but he was not an idiot, so he stabilized his mind, and seeing that Wu Ya was holding it still, he became suspicious and wanted to take it for inspection.

It's just that unfortunate.

Before his hand touched the imperial decree, he heard a "tapping" sound.

Not long after, a group of soldiers in armor came over, and the leader Tie Sheng also recognized that he was General Zhou's capable lieutenant Sheng Ping.

This time, he didn't bother to look at the imperial decree anymore, his face turned pale and he was sweating profusely.

"Subordinate Sheng Ping, I have seen the imperial envoy, the general asked my subordinates to come and assist the imperial envoy." Jiang Ping came over and said to Jia Rong with his fists in his hands.

Jia Rong nodded: "Thank you for your hard work. Let's start."

"Yes."

With Jiang Ping joining with a hundred soldiers, it will be much easier to sort it out.In less than half an hour, all the male members of the Tie family were detained, and the female family members of the mansion were also taken to Mrs. Tie's courtyard, and guards were sent inside and outside.

As for the servants in the mansion, except for some big servant girls who served close to them, the rest were imprisoned in a courtyard.

Tie Sheng's study and yard were turned upside down.However, nothing useful was found in his yard.Instead, in the study in his eldest son's yard, he dug out the basic account books again.When I opened it, I found that the things recorded on it were no less than those that Jia Rong had already obtained.

Even in the account book, not only the third prince and the sixth prince are involved, but also the two most powerful princes at present, and many important officials of the court are also among them. It is not an exaggeration to say that one fifth of the officials in the capital All of them are more or less connected with the Tie family.

What made Jia Rong even more unexpected was that the Zhen family, Rongguo Mansion, Wang family, Shi family and Xue family in Jinling, these four families, were all on the list.

Looking at the names on the top and the things marked on the bottom, Jia Rong said that now, the drama is finally about to start.
