Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

Someone from the Jingyuan Hou Mansion has arrived.Jia Jing twitched his brows and asked instinctively, "Who is here?"

The servant had a bitter face: "It's Lord Jingyuan, uncle and master came to the door in person."

It turned out that it was Jing Yuanhou who came to the door in person.Jia Jing's color changed in an instant. This person has a title. Without Jia Daishan, now in the mansion, in terms of status, no one except Jia's mother is this honorable. However, Jia's mother and Zhang's used to have a bad relationship. Marquis Yuan, I'm afraid he won't show face to Mother Jia, and the Jia family will really lose all face when they make a fuss...

Thinking of this, Jia Jing was dripping with cold sweat, rubbing his thumb against his fingertips, trying to calm down and deal with the situation in front of him, but he was too flustered, and he couldn't come up with any good solution.

Jia Amnesty laughed, "Brother-in-law is here? That's fine, just right, let's settle this matter today." After speaking, he stood up, brushed off the non-existent dust on his clothes, and was about to go out.

Jia Jing was so angry that Jia She wanted to vomit blood: "You didn't listen to what I just said about the feelings, did you? You really think that the Zhang family is a vegetarian, so I can't do anything to you?! Do you still want to live? When you came here, you dared to ignore me in front of me, but now it's your turn to be afraid, you are full of courage, Enhou, do you know what to do on any occasion?!"

Jia She looked at him inexplicably, but his expression gradually softened: "Brother Jing, I understand your kindness, but there are some things that can't be avoided by hiding. The current mess in our house, you It is also seen in my eyes, my father just went to the funeral, if he wants to know, he has only been here for a long time, and the Rongguo Mansion that he has maintained and worked hard for all his life has become what it is now. Under the Nine Springs, it is difficult to rest your eyes. It happens that everyone is here today, and there are some things that should be spread out and have to be spread out."

Jia Jing always felt that Jia She's words meant something, but the situation in front of him really didn't allow him to think too much. After hearing Jia She's words, he became more angry: "Since you know that you have to think about your uncle who has gone, I'm afraid He is uneasy in the ground, so you should take care of yourself. The brothers and sisters of the Zhang family have always had a very good relationship, and no one in Manjing knows that? Now that the situation of the brothers and sisters is not good, Jing Yuanhou made it clear that he came to Xingshi to question his crimes. Even if you feel guilty, you can’t dare It's time to pass, and when the time comes to fight, I have no face to stop it."

This is the truth, it’s fine if Jia She left behind, but in front of the suffering lord Jing Yuanhou, if he really beat Jia She to vent his anger for Zhang, Jia Jing really had no face to persuade him, Zhang was lying on the bed and didn’t know his personnel, and the two A child lost his mother, what happened to Jia She being beaten?Should!If his own sister was bullied like this, he would fight to the death directly!But from the standpoint of Jia's patriarch and Jia She's cousin, Jia Jing was biased. After all, his own family is important, and although the Zhang family is poor, they can't just let Jia She suffer.

Jia She could hear the concern expressed in Jia Jing's words, his smile became more sincere, and his attitude softened. This cousin, who was quite different in age from him, had always played the role of patriarch. Mother Jia was heartbroken, and she didn't care about this elder brother at first, but she didn't want to. When something happened, this cousin took the initiative to let him avoid disaster, even though he knew that if he hid, he would be afraid of Jingyuan. Hou will never let it go, he bears the title, and Jia Jing is not easy to deal with it.This is really taking his own hard work in exchange for his safety.

Thinking of Jia Jing's brotherhood, Jia Amnesty no longer pretended to be confused in front of him, and only thanked with a wry smile: "I appreciate Brother Jing's kindness, and I know it too. It’s hard to be happy. It’s just that today, I can’t hide.” Seeing that Jia Jing’s face darkened and he wanted to speak, Jia Amnesty only asked, “Brother Jing said that if I want to hide, I can hide. It's still there."

"Uh..." Jia Jing suddenly remembered Jia Mu and Jia Zheng, and was speechless.How could these two be willing to help Jia She clean up the mess? I'm afraid they have already sent someone to call Jia She.Jia Amnesty wanted to hide, but he was afraid that the two of them would have rushed over after receiving the news before they left the gate of Rongguo Mansion.

No matter how much Jia Jing said, he could only swallow it all in the face of the naked reality presented by Jia She, and stood there for a long time with an ugly face, and finally, he could only pat Jia She on the shoulder: "Since you want to be in front If the matter is completely resolved in front of everyone, then I won't stop you. After all, you and I are a family, and if something really happens, I won't just watch it in vain." This is also a promise in disguise.

Jia Amnesty knew that this was the limit of what Jia Jing could do. As the patriarch of the Jia clan, he represented the Jia clan. Jingyuanhou's mansion can't get through.

Jia Amnesty smiled and said, "Brother Jing, don't worry, brother-in-law can't beat me to death, right? There are still two children."

Jia Jingwei thought for a while, and it was true that with Jia Hu and Jia Lian around, Marquis Jingyuan couldn't really kill Jia She, no matter how bad it was, Jia She was also the heir of the Rongguo Mansion.But... "Although Jingyuan Hou's mansion is a famous Confucian general, he has made military achievements after all. The guards in the mansion are not vegetarians. Just a few hits are enough for you to throw your arms and break your legs, and lie down for a year or so It's gone." Jia Jing was annoyed when he said that, and after the brotherhood was gone, he became dissatisfied with Jia Amnesty, "You have to be careful, where is such a disaster now?" He is also not a human being inside and out.You can't just let Jia Amnesty go, let him get hurt, and lose the Jia family's name, but you can't interfere too much, and go against the Zhang family when you are clearly wrong. It doesn't make sense, and it doesn't make sense morally. It's really a dilemma , No matter what you do, it's all wrong!

Jia Amnesty didn't argue, just said in a low voice: "I never thought that in my own house, the maids and mothers-in-law of Manfu would ask me to openly kill the child and his mother..."

What do you mean by that?A flash of light flashed in Jia Jing's mind, before he could catch it, Jia Amnesty called for someone to bring water to clean his face, and then straightened his clothes and hair in front of the mirror, washed his face, rubbed his face, and told his face Seeing that he was more energetic, he walked out in great strides.Jia Jing followed with a sullen face.

Marquis Jingyuan obviously came from unkind people. Jia Jing walked all the way, and all the servants he saw looked worried. When he arrived at Rongxi Hall, there were five tough men standing at the door. He didn't salute them when he saw them, which was obviously not the case. People from Rongguo Mansion.When Jia Amnesty saw one of them, he greeted him: "Guard Li, is my brother-in-law inside?"

Guard Li looked at Jia She as if he had seen a ghost. He seemed to be frightened by Jia She's calmness. It was the people around him who poked his arm before he realized it. He said with an ugly expression, "I can't afford to ask Mr. Jia." Ask, our Lord Hou is going to see his aunt, but he is not inside." Li Huwei's father is the general of the Jingyuan Hou Mansion. Whether Xie is the uncle or not, all of them are not in a good mood. If they are willing to answer him, they already remember Jingyuanhou's order before he came: "Don't make trouble easily".

Jia Amnesty didn't care about his unreasonableness, but boasted: "It's loyal. It would be great if our Rongguo Mansion's guards could have half as much as Guard Li's."

Guard Li responded with a sneer.The four guards brought by the Zhang family next to him also ignored Jia She, as if he ignored him like air, obviously he had a grudge against Zhang's serious illness.Seeing this, Jia Jing couldn't help but sigh, the people in Jingyuan Hou's mansion would train his subordinates, and they were all so loyal.

Jia Amnesty didn't stop, turned around and hurried to Zhang's place.Jia Jing hesitated, but finally followed.Jia Amnesty walked very fast, so Jia Jing had no choice but to follow along. When he reached the outside of Zhang's house, he heard Jingyuan Hou say angrily inside: "My sister was fine before, but now she's lying on the bed and doesn't know about her affairs. My wife must give me an explanation! Otherwise, I will take my sister back today."

Mrs. Zhang is not in good health, and the doctors said that she will not be able to pass this test. Marquis Jingyuan wants to bring Mrs. Zhang back to the Zhang family at this time. Mrs. Zhang is gone outside, so she cannot enter the ancestral grave of Mrs. Jia. Not to mention Jia She's original wife - Marquis Jingyuan, this is to make Zhang and Jia She reconcile.

Jia Jing frowned, and then heard Jia's mother apologizing to Jingyuan Hou: "Thousands of mistakes are my fault. I didn't teach my son well. I really have no face to plead with you here. But the eldest daughter-in-law is Eighth of our Jia family brought a big sedan chair to marry in. No matter what, we would not intend to harm her. The boss was really drunk and confused, so he accidentally killed the boss’s daughter-in-law like this. Zhanghou, you just look at it because of the relationship between my two families. For the sake of goodness, please forgive the boss."

Jia She sneered, and the next moment, Marquis Jingyuan jumped into a rage, and said angrily, "Thankfully, my wife was able to speak out and asked us to be lenient. If my wife remembers, it was the old man who came to our house for a few days in person. My father just married my younger sister into your family after lobbying for the last time. In just a few years, my younger sister is now dying in bed? The wife of my in-laws still has the face to tell us to forgive? The two families are on good terms? The two families are on good terms Is this how the in-laws treat the good in-laws?” Then, he sneered again and again, and when he became extremely angry, he calmed down and sneered, “Does the in-laws really think that our Jingyuanhou’s mansion has fallen, so that they can be killed by others at will? Stripped your face and stepped on the ground? Is it true that there is no one behind my sister to support me? You can do whatever you want?"

Jia Amnesty listened, and stepped forward to open the curtain to go in. Naturally, Jia Jing couldn't lag behind. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jing Yuanhou distorted his facial features in anger, and said sternly: "My sister really has something wrong. Even if we try our best in Jingyuan Hou Mansion, we will not give up!"

Jia's mother hurriedly persuaded: "Our two families have been friends for many years, how could I do this. In the end, this matter is indeed the boss's mistake. If you want to deal with the boss, I really have no face to intercede with him..."

Although Jia Amnesty had been prepared for a long time, when he heard this sentence, he still couldn't stop thinking, if Jia Zheng was the one who encountered this, I am afraid that Jia's mother would not be so calm and calm, saying something, "I don't have the face to give it to you." He begged for mercy, maybe he even laid out the money of the elders, so that he could ask someone to let Jia Zheng go.They are both their mothers, why is Jia's mother partial?Marquis Jingyuan clearly knew that the visitor was not kind, but she even pleaded for him only on the surface, doing it in a general way, and refused to put forth any effort.

Maybe she still hoped that he would be crippled under the hands of the Zhang family, so that Jia Zheng could inherit the title in a fair manner!There was fire in Jia She's eyes, and he choked back immediately: "Teaching a son like me, my wife naturally has no face to plead." Seeing that everyone in the room turned their attention to him, Jia She seemed to remember something, He smiled maliciously at Mother Jia, "By the way, I almost forgot that the son raised by my wife is the second younger brother, and I was brought up by my grandmother. It is really my grandmother who raised such unworthy children and grandchildren as me." If you didn't teach me well, it has nothing to do with your wife!"

Mother Jia was so angry that her lips trembled, and she yelled "You, you bastard..." several times in her mouth, rubbing her chest and screaming that it hurts.

Jia Jing looked wrong, but he really didn't want to get into this trouble, he just pretended he didn't see it, but Jia Zheng hurriedly stepped forward to support Jia's mother, looked at Jia Amnesty reproachfully, and said, "Brother, Are you going to piss off your mother?"

Jia Amnesty replied straightforwardly: "Anyway, I'm going to be charged with murdering my wife now, and it's okay to add disobedience?"

Jia Mu was really angry at this moment, she leaned back and almost fell down.Jia Jing was taken aback, and hurriedly helped Jia Mu sit down with Jia Zheng.Just about to reprimand Jia She, Jing Yuanhou interrupted impatiently: "I am not here today to watch your mother and son quarrel. Now my sister is still lying in the back room, and now the victim has come. What is my sister doing?" What has become like this, you Rongguo Mansion, you have to explain to me."

As soon as Marquis Jingyuan finished speaking, Mother Jia suppressed her discomfort and apologized to him: "Everything was wrong, and our boss was also confused after drinking, which led to a big mistake. It was really not intentional..."

Marquis Jingyuan raised her hand and interrupted her: "Drunkenness? Didn't it mean it? Can you expose what he did with just a few words?" Seeing Jia She sneered, "Since the wine is not good, you should Be careful!"

Jia Jing suddenly came back to his senses, what he always felt was the discord between Jiamu and Jingyuanhou's conversation. Jiamu's words were obviously to excuse Jia Amnesty, but every sentence actually made Jingyuanhou even more angry. , Instead, Jia Amnesty was convicted of death.Just like just now, Jia's mother has already admitted that it was Jia She who lost her morality after drinking, and as a result, Zhang's personnel affairs were not known, and Jia She had confessed her crime.

Jia Jing suddenly felt that the arm of Jia Mu who was supporting her was a little hot. This seemingly weak woman was really cruel, and even her own flesh and blood were so cruel...

Facing Jing Yuanhou, Jia Amnesty was full of guilt, but refused to admit all the crimes: "It just so happens that my brother-in-law is here. I have some matters, but I need my brother-in-law to help investigate. Otherwise, even if I plead guilty, I will not be convinced."

Marquis Jingyuan raised his eyebrows: "What is it?"

Jia She glanced at Jia's mother, "The servant who served that night." Jia's mother froze, and just about to stop her, Jia She had already said it first, "It was my wife who was interrogating me at the beginning of this matter, but there are some places where I am really puzzled." Panic, I clearly remember that I didn't drink any more after seeing off the guests, but all these servants said in unison that I was drunk and didn't remember... There is a method of interrogation in the army, surely the Jingyuanhou Mansion is no stranger to it? Help me once, figure it out, if you want to kill or cut, I have nothing to say!"

Mother Jia's face was livid, she looked at Jia She and said, "You want Master Zhang to interrogate you. Why, do you suspect that I am framing you? Do you think I have no intention of interrogating those servants? I bought them all?" Already out of anger.

But this time, Jia Amnesty did not give up because of this, instead he said calmly: "After all, my wife is not an expert, and there are occasional mistakes. It's cunning, it's true that my wife was deceived by them accidentally." After saying that, she didn't look at Jia's mother's reaction, but bowed deeply to Jingyuanhou, "Please ask my brother-in-law to interrogate, if it's really me I lost my morals after drinking, so I fell into Buddhism when I was serving, praying and chanting sutras for my grandma, if I was tricked, grandma would not be gracious, and I would have suffered a lot in vain!"

Jia Jing was taken aback by Jia She's words: "Honour, what nonsense are you talking about? You are the eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion, so you can say whatever you want if you become a monk?"

But Jing Yuanhou asked: "Really?"

The one who answered him was Jia She who raised three fingers and swore solemnly: "If there is any deceit, heaven and earth will perish."

After swearing such a poisonous oath, Jia Jing couldn't stop him any longer, and let go of Jia Mu as soon as he let go of his hand. Jia Mu was startled and angry, and she fell heavily on the back of the chair for a while.Jing Yuanhou turned around to look at her, and demanded: "Please also ask your wife to call all the servants, I want to interrogate myself."

Jia's mother was still struggling: "If the servants say the same thing, how can they wrong him? I'm afraid it's even more inaccurate to torture him."

Jia Amnesty interjected coldly: "Why doesn't my wife want my son to be innocent? Being tricked by a servant and making mistakes by myself, madam, don't you want your son to be the latter?"

Mother Jia was so angry that she fell on her back, she was speechless, Jingyuan Hou Suyan said: "Please also ask your wife to hand over those servants to me for interrogation!"

Mother Jia shrank her hands under her robe and held them tightly together...
