Lian Erye's Road to Imperial Examination
Chapter 91
When Jia's mother heard that Jia Lian was assassinated in Jinling and was seriously injured, she was shocked.She was hit not because she was worried about Jia Lian's life or death, but because she felt that if Jia Lian died, no one could restore Jia's title.
Jia Lian is now the only hope of the Jia family, and only he can restore the Jia family's title.If something happens to him, he can only count on Jia Baoyu, but Jia Baoyu is only two years old now.Waiting for him to get the title will take at least 20 years, when Jia Mu might pass away.
The Rongguo Mansion lost its title, and Mother Jia has always blamed herself. She hoped that before she died, the Jia Mansion could get the title back, so that after she died, she would go underground and have the face to meet her husband and the ancestors of the Jia family.
"Brother Lian is still a 15-year-old child, who is so cruel to kill a child?" Jia Mu said, wiping her tears.
Jia Min's eyes were already red from crying, and her voice was choked with sobs: "These devoid of conscience actually murdered a 15-year-old boy, brother Lian..." Brother Lian was just a small fifth-rank official who was sent to rescue the disaster It will not hinder the interests of those people. Why do those people want to be cruel to Brother Lian?
"My poor brother Lian..." Mother Jia cried very sadly while beating her breast.
"Brother Lian..." Jia Min was really worried about Jia Lian. If something happened to Jia Lian, her heart seemed to be ripped out alive.Thinking that Jia Lian's trip to the south of the Yangtze River was arranged by the emperor, Jia Min couldn't help blaming Emperor Longwu in his heart.Brother Lian was just a 15-year-old kid who was actually sent to Jiangnan.If Brother Lian hadn't gone to Jiangnan, nothing would have happened.
Jia Yuanchun's eyes were also red, with tears in his eyes, and he comforted Jia's mother and Jia Min with a choked voice: "Grandmother, aunt, Lian's younger brother is auspicious, and everything will be fine."
Hearing this, Jia Min raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face, and his eyes became firm: "Yes, Yuan Chun is right, brother Lian is a blessed child, he will definitely turn danger into good fortune, and nothing will happen to him." of!"
Jia's mother was comforted by Jia Min's words, "You are right, brother Lian is a lucky child, nothing will happen to him!"
"Mother, let's go to Fuling Temple tomorrow and pray for Brother Lian."
"it is good."
"Grandma, aunt, I'll go too."
"go together."
Jia Yuanchun frowned slightly, with a worried look on his face: "Auntie, I'm a little worried about Jing Rong. Brother Lian's life and death are unknown, so Jing Rong must be feeling bad."
When Jia Min heard this, she couldn't help worrying about Zhuang Jingrong.
"Let's go to Liuyuan Mansion now."
"it is good."
Jia's mother said: "Jingrong must be feeling uncomfortable now, you two should comfort her well."
"Mother, don't worry, we will comfort Jingrong well."
"It's also hard for the mirror, brother Lian was sent to Jiangnan for disaster relief as soon as he married." Mother Jia sighed heavily, "Brother Lian was assassinated not long after he arrived in Jiangnan. A young girl must not be able to bear this blow."
Jia Min and Jia Yuanchun bid farewell to Jia Mu and rushed to Liuyuan Mansion, only to hear that Zhuang Jingrong passed out.
Zhuang Jingrong woke up after being in a coma for half an hour. As soon as she woke up, she held Xia Ying's arm tightly and asked, "Is there any news about your husband? Is your husband all right?"
"Madam..." Xia Ying grew up with Zhuang Jingrong, the first time she saw Zhuang Jingrong's anxious and worried expression, she couldn't bear it, so she could only change the subject and say, "Madam, Mrs. Jia Min and Miss Yuanchun are here. "
"My aunt and elder sister are here." Zhuang Jingrong got up quickly, tidied up his appearance, and went out to meet Jia Min and Jia Yuanchun.
Seeing Zhuang Jingrong coming out, Jia Min immediately stood up, walked towards her, reached out to hold Zhuang Jingrong's hands, and comforted her gently: "Jingrong, brother Lian will be fine, don't worry too much."
Jia Yuanchun also came over, comforting: "Jingrong, Brother Lian's lucky star is shining brightly, everything will be fine!"
When Zhuang Jingrong heard what Jia Min and the others said, his eyes lit up immediately, and he asked excitedly, "Auntie, do you have any news about your husband?" The husband said that Jia's hometown is in Jinling, and there are still people there. Auntie They said so, it must be news from their hometown.
Seeing the hope in Zhuang Jingrong's eyes, Jia Min couldn't bear to tell her it wasn't right for a while, but she couldn't lie to her either, so she could only shake her head slightly: "No, we haven't heard from Brother Lian."
When Zhuang Jingrong heard this, his eyes that had just lit up suddenly became sad, and his expression became sad: "Husband, he..."
Jia Min held Zhuang Jingrong's hand tightly, and looked at her firmly: "Jingrong, you have to believe that brother Lian will be fine, he won six yuan in a row, and he is the Wenqu star descended from the people's mouth, how could it be so Do you have something to do when you are young?"
Jia Yuanchun echoed from the side and said, "Brother Lian, you will surely turn danger into good luck."
"If you are worried, let's go to Fuling Temple tomorrow to pray for Brother Lian!"
Zhuang Jingrong's panicked heart was relieved a little after Jia Min and Jia Yuanchun comforted her.
"Jingrong, at this time, the more you can't mess up, you have to firmly believe that brother Lian will be fine."
Jia Min's words were like a shot in the arm, and immediately calmed Zhuang Jingrong's flustered heart a lot.
"Auntie, you are right. I want to believe that your husband will be fine." My husband is a person who keeps promises. He said that he will come back from Jiangnan safely, and he will be safe. "Auntie, let's burn incense and pray for my husband tomorrow."
Jia Min saw that Zhuang Jingrong's expression had become firm, without the sadness and despair just now, she felt relieved instantly, and smiled at Zhuang Jingrong with relief.
"That's right."
"Auntie, big sister, thank you." When she heard that her husband had an accident, she panicked and didn't know what to do.Since she was a child, she has always been rational, no matter what happens, she will not panic.However, when she heard about her husband's accident, she lost all reason, and her whole heart was filled with panic and fear.This feeling, for the first time, was completely out of proportion.
Jia Min patted Zhuang Jingrong's hand lightly, and said with a smile, "Silly boy, we are one family, so what can we thank you for?"
"Thanks to my aunt and elder sister, I calmed down." Zhuang Jingrong expressed gratitude.
"We were afraid that you would be overwhelmed, so we came here to comfort you."
"I'm fine now." Zhuang Jingrong's mind became much calmer.
"That's good."
"Auntie, I'm going to visit my father and mother, they must be panicking too."
"Yes, yes, yes, brother and sister-in-law must be panicking too, let's go there together."
Zhuang Jingrong and the others went to Jia She's yard, and heard that Jia She had passed out and hadn't woken up until now.Although Mrs. Xing did not faint, she was still crying.
Jia Min and the others comforted Mrs. Xing for a long time, and Mrs. Xing finally stopped crying, and decided to go to Fuling Temple with Zhuang Jingrong and the others tomorrow to pray for Jia Lian.
Jia Lian was sent to the south of the Yangtze River for disaster relief, but many people were jealous, thinking that the emperor favored Jia Lian too much.However, now that they heard that Jia Lian was assassinated in the south of the Yangtze River, and his life and death are still unknown, the people who were jealous of Jia Lian before became gloating.
"I'm going to Jinling!"
"Father, if you go to Jinling now, it won't help."
"I have to go to Jinling!" Since receiving the news of Jia Lian's accident, the Supreme Emperor's heart has become very worried and anxious, wishing to fly to Jinling immediately with wings.
"The journey from the capital to Jinling will take half a month at the fastest. You are too old to rush on the road. You will probably fall ill before you arrive in Jinling." Emperor Longwu didn't understand why the Supreme Emperor cared so much about Jia Lian. This kind of concern was already too much A lot.
The Taishang Emperor's eyes were red with anxiety, and his expression was very anxious: "I am in good health, and I will be fine when I go to Jinling."
"Father, calm down. If you go to Jinling, you will miss the news from the secret guard." Emperor Longwu calmly comforted him, "The news from the secret guard didn't mean that Jia Lian would be fine as long as he survived these two days. , you have to trust that kid!"
"But..." He had watched the child leave him helplessly, and could no longer allow Jia Lian to leave him.
"Jiang Qingyun and the others invited Jia Lian a famous genius doctor in Jinling City. I heard that the genius doctor is very effective in treating patients. With him around, Jia Lian will be fine."
The Supreme Emperor was still worried, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do if he hurried over at this time.
"Just wait patiently for news."
The Supreme Emperor frowned tightly and did not speak for a long time, and finally heaved a long sigh: "Ah...he shouldn't be allowed to go to the south of the Yangtze River..."
When Emperor Longwu heard this, he rolled his eyes indecently: "Are you blaming me?"
When the Supreme Emperor heard this, he snorted coldly: "If there is something wrong with Jia Lian, I will settle the score with you again."
Emperor Longwu: "...Old man, Jia Lian must be your own grandson."
The Supreme Emperor ignored Emperor Longwu, turned around and left the imperial study, returned to his own palace, and sent two hidden guards to Jinling.
"Li Jinzhong, who do you think attacked Jia Lian?"
Li Jinzhong, who was standing on the side as the background board, was stunned by Emperor Longwu's sudden question, and then said blankly: "This...slave is stupid, I can't guess who shot Jia Lian." Li Jinzhong's heart is like a bright mirror Yes, the person who attacked Jia Lian was either the First Prince or the Fourth Prince.
Emperor Longwu didn't expect Li Jinzhong to give an answer. He tapped his index finger on the table lightly and looked thoughtful: "The people in Jinling are basically the boss and the fourth. The fourth is very important to Jia Lian. Someone assassinated Jia Lian. The boss is very likely."
When Li Jinzhong heard what Emperor Longwu said, he didn't speak, and pretended not to understand.
"Boss..." Emperor Longwu's eyes flashed a cold light, "I have turned a blind eye to Jiangnan's affairs these past few years, it's time to rectify."
When Li Jinzhong heard this, his heart trembled. The emperor said that the rectification was a big move. It is estimated that the officials in Jiangnan will have a big change.
At this time, Jiang Qingyun, who was far away in Jinling, was also worried about who assassinated Jia Lian. After investigating for a long time, there was no clue or clue.
Wang Shiwei and Zhang Shiwei can only judge from each other's moves that the man in black who assassinated Jia Lian should be a dead man, but it is unknown whose family raised the dead man.
We must know that no matter in the capital city or Jinling, many high-ranking officials and dignitaries like to raise the dead to protect themselves.
"The group of dead men didn't leave anything related to their identities, so it's hard to guess which family of dead men they belonged to."
"However, this group of dead soldiers ambushed us on our way back to the city, and then quickly evacuated. It can be seen that they are very familiar with the terrain outside Jinling."
Jiang Qingyun frowned slightly after listening to Zhang Shiwei and Wang Shiwei's analysis, "You mean these dead men are probably from Jinling?"
Guard Zhang nodded slightly: "Judging from their familiarity with the terrain, nine out of ten it is the land of Jinling."
"It's a native of Jinling, so it's easy to handle. Mr. Jiang can directly check which families in Jinling support the dead."
Jiang Qingyun had a direction in his mind, and immediately sent someone to investigate those families in Jinling who raised the dead, hoping to find clues.
After answering Jiang Qingyun's question, Zhang Shiwei and Wang Shiwei returned to Jia Lian's room and continued to guard Jia Lian's bedside.Jia Lian was assassinated this time, and blamed them for their inferior skills and lack of vigilance.
Jiang Qingyun sent people to investigate Jia Lian's murderer, and Jinling officials were also secretly investigating.
After Jia Lian was assassinated, the atmosphere in Jinling became tense, especially the relationship between officials became sharper.
Not long after Jia Lian was seriously injured, he started to have a high fever. He tried many methods but the fever did not go away. Seeing that Jia Lian was in danger, the doctor suddenly thought of a way to wipe Jia Lian's whole body with wine.After a while, Jia Lian's high fever subsided and his life was saved.
Seeing Jia Lian coming over, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.If Jia Lian had an accident in Jinling, all of them would be punished.
On the third day after Jia Lian survived, Emperor Longwu's imperial decree came to Jinling.
The general content of the imperial decree is that Emperor Longwu was very angry at Jia Lian's assassination and was very disappointed with the officials in Jinling.If Jia Lian had any problems, he would ask the officials of Jinling.If the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian cannot be investigated, he will question the officials of Jinling.
After receiving the imperial decree, the officials in Jinling discovered how much Emperor Longwu valued Jia Lian, and asked people from the capital to find out what Jia Lian was from, and why the emperor valued Jia Lian so much.
The officials in Jinling became more tense because of Emperor Longwu's edict.Fortunately, Jia Lian is fine now, and his life is not in danger.However, if the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian cannot be found, their life will still be difficult.
Not only that, Jinling officials still received letters from their masters, first scolding them, and then telling them to find the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian.No matter what method you use, you must clear yourself of suspicion.
The officials in Jinling decided to start cheating each other and put the suspicion on the other side.
Because of Jia Lian's assassination, Jinling officials were not in the mood to care about the disaster relief situation, which made the disaster relief work much smoother.
As an imperial envoy, Jiang Qingyun couldn't stay in Jinling all the time, after handling the disaster relief work in Jinling, and Jia Lian was not in danger of his life, he should leave Jinling and go to Suzhou.
Originally, he wanted to stay in Jinling until the murderer of Jia Lian was found out before leaving, but the emperor ordered him to continue to provide disaster relief.Regarding the search for the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian, someone will investigate.
"Master Jiang, I'm sorry, I can't go to Suzhou with you for disaster relief." Jia Lian apologized.
"You are seriously injured, it's better to stay in Jinling to recuperate." Jiang Qingyun also looked guilty, "I'm sorry that I hurt you."
"This has nothing to do with Lord Jiang."
"They should be targeting me, but I didn't expect to implicate you." Jiang Qingyun always felt that the target of the assassination should be him, not Jia Lian.However, there were many soldiers and guards around him, and the assassin couldn't do anything, so he had to deal ruthlessly with Jia Lian.
Jia Lian shook his head quickly: "Master Jiang, you didn't implicate me. Those people's target is me."
"Are you so sure?"
Jia Lian nodded slightly: "I felt that someone was following me some time ago, and I didn't take it to heart. Now it seems that these people have been eyeing me for a long time, and have been waiting for the opportunity to assassinate me."
"Is there such a thing?" Jiang Qingyun looked surprised, "It shouldn't be, you are only in charge of disaster relief and have not hindered them. Why would they kill you?"
Jia Lian didn't understand either, he was just a small fifth-rank official, and he didn't do anything to hinder the officials of Jinling.
After thinking about it, there is only one possibility.
"Perhaps, they want to put the charge of assassinating me on the other party's head, and then use this incident to bring down the other party."However, it is different to assassinate him. After all, he is only a fifth-rank official, even if he is killed, it will not cause any uproar.
Jiang Qingyun felt that Jia Lian's words made some sense, and his face turned cold involuntarily: "What you said is very likely!" If the purpose of Jinling officials is this, then... Jiang Qingyun's heart is suddenly full of worries , "Jia Lian, it will be dangerous for you to stay in Jinling."
"Didn't the emperor make a decree that if something happens to me, the officials in Jinling will be punished, and they shouldn't dare to attack me again."
Only then did Jiang Qingyun recall the previous imperial decree, and he felt relieved a lot: "Although this is the case, I still don't feel relieved to leave you alone in Jinling."
"Didn't the emperor send someone to Jinling again? I'll be fine. Master Jiang can go to Suzhou for relief."
Although Jiang Qingyun was worried about Jia Lian's safety, he couldn't take Jia Lian away. After all, Jia Lian's injury was too serious to travel long distances, so Jia Lian could only stay in Jinling.
"we can only do this."
"Master Jiang, I'll be fine!" Jia Lian smiled reassuringly at Jiang Qingyun.
"Well, I hope you can get better soon." Jiang Qingyun said with a smile, "You are better at disaster relief."
"Master Jiang is modest."
Jiang Qingyun chatted with Jia Lian for a while, then left.
Before he left Jinling, he deliberately left 10 taels of silver, and the officials in Jinling did not refuse, and took the 10 taels of silver unceremoniously.
The news that Jia Lian's life was safe and sound spread back to the capital soon.
The Supreme Emperor received the news from the hidden guards, knowing that Jia Lian survived and his life was not in danger, his fearful heart was finally relieved.
"I just said that the kid is going to be safe, do you think I'm right?" Emperor Longwu was relieved when he received the news that Jia Lian was safe and sound.
"Well, you're right." The Taishanghuang finally showed a smile on his tense face for the past few days.
Emperor Longwu felt very complicated when he saw the appearance of the Supreme Emperor.Two days ago, he learned from the queen mother why the emperor cared about Jia Lian, but he didn't expect it to be related to his brother who died young.He didn't think Jia Lian was like the emperor's brother who died young before, but now he realized that Jia Lian really looked like the emperor's brother. No wonder he felt familiar with Jia Lian the first time he saw him, so it was because of this.
When the emperor's brother passed away, he was still young, and his impression of the emperor's brother was very vague, so he didn't realize that Jia Lian was like the emperor's brother.
Jia Lian is like a deceased imperial brother, no wonder the old man loves him so much.
When Emperor Longwu was bullied by other princes when he was young, the elder brother who died young once helped him.Because of that imperial brother, the life of the Empress Dowager and Emperor Longwu in the palace was easier at that time.
Emperor Longwu has always been grateful to his elder brother who died young.It's just that with the passage of time, he gradually forgot the existence of the emperor's brother, and naturally he didn't remember what the emperor's brother looked like.However, after hearing what the Queen Mother said, Brother Huang's face suddenly became clear in his mind.
After learning why the Supreme Emperor loves Jia Lian, Emperor Longwu's attitude towards Jia Lian also changed.
The news that Jia Lian was fine quickly spread throughout the capital, making those who were jealous of Jia Lian very uncomfortable, thinking that Jia Lian's fate was really serious, and he was assassinated to the point where his life and death were unknown, but he was still alive.
When Jia's mother learned that Jia Lian was fine, she thanked God and thanked all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.Jia Lian is not dead, so there is hope for their Jia family to restore their titles.
"What, Jia Lian is not dead?!" Mrs. Wang was furious when she heard the news, "It's not that he is unknown, why is he not dead?"
Zhou Rui's family was frightened by Mrs. Wang's distorted appearance, and said fearfully: "The rumors in the capital say so, that Master Lian is not dead yet."
With a bang, Mrs. Wang grabbed a teacup on the table and slammed it on the ground.
"Madam..." Zhou Rui's family was so frightened that they hid in the corner and shivered.
Mrs. Wang's expression was distorted, she gritted her teeth and scolded: "He is really lucky, he was stabbed so badly, yet he is still alive!"
Zhou Rui's family thought that his wife had indeed sent someone to assassinate Young Master Lian.
Mrs. Wang's face was stern: "If you can't kill him once, then assassinate him twice." Although Jia Lian did not die, he was seriously injured. If he assassinates him again at this time, he will definitely be able to kill him.
Zhou Rui's family thought Mrs. Wang was really crazy and wanted to kill Jia Lian.It seems that Mrs. Wang will not give up unless Jia Lian is completely killed.
Mrs. Wang wrote another letter to Aunt Xue, asking Aunt Xue to send someone to assassinate Jia Lian again, and Jia Lian must be put to death.
Here, Mrs. Wang wrote another letter to Aunt Xue.Over there, the letter written by Aunt Xue to Wang Ziteng was delivered to Wang Ziteng.
When Wang Ziteng received Aunt Xue's letter, he was so angry that he wanted to run to Jia's mansion and shoot Mrs. Wang to death with a brick, so as not to hurt the Wang family.
Wang Ziteng's wife came to ask him to eat, and seeing his angry face livid, she was very worried: "Husband, what's wrong with you, who made you angry?"
"How could I have such a stupid sister?!"
Wang Ziteng's wife was stunned for a moment, then said cautiously: "Your husband is talking about the younger sister?"
"Who else is there besides her?" Wang Ziteng looked angry, "Sooner or later our Wang family will be implicated to death by her."
When Wang Ziteng's wife heard this, her face turned pale with fright: "I've been implicated to death? What did my little sister do?"
"She actually sent someone to Jinling to assassinate Jia Lian!" The prince slammed the table angrily, "Jia Lian's assassination angered the emperor, and the emperor sent someone to Jinling to investigate the murderer of Jia Lian. If it is found out that it is the younger sister If you do, our Wang family will also be implicated by her."
Wang Ziteng's wife's eyes widened, her face was horrified, and she stammered, "Little sister...is she crazy...to send someone to assassinate Jia Lian..."
"How can there be such a stupid person in our Wang family?" Wang Ziteng tried his best to win Jia Lian, but luckily, his own sister sent someone to assassinate Jia Lian.
"Husband, what should we do?" The assassination of Jia Lian in Jinling made the emperor furious, and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, but the murderer could not be found, and all officials in Jinling would be implicated. This shows how much the emperor values Jia Lian .Unexpectedly, the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian was my sister-in-law. If the emperor knew about it, their royal family would be finished.
Wang Ziteng took several deep breaths, trying to suppress the overwhelming anger and killing intent in his heart, "I will go to my mother to discuss this matter."
After hearing her son's words, Mrs. Wang knocked over the teacup in her hand in shock, and said in shock, "You said my younger sister sent someone to assassinate Jia Lian?"
Wang Ziteng handed Aunt Xue's letter to Mrs. Wang: "Mother, this is the second sister's letter, you can read it yourself."
Mrs. Wang took the letter and read it carefully from beginning to end.After reading the letter, her hands trembled slightly.
"Mother, the emperor has sent someone to Jinling to investigate Jia Lian's assassination." Wang Ziteng frowned, his face full of worry, "If the emperor wants to investigate something thoroughly, he will definitely find out the truth. , she must have left some clues, so that people can quickly find out that she did it. What should I do now?"
Mrs. Wang was so angry that she almost fainted, "How could I have given birth to such a beast..." Mrs. Wang is very regretful now, regretting that she spoiled Mrs. Wang so much back then.If she had known that Mrs. Wang would bring trouble to the family, she should have strangled her little daughter to death.
Wang Ziteng hurried over, patted Mrs. Wang's chest, and helped her calm down: "Mother, calm down..."
Old Mrs. Wang was angry with tears in her eyes, "Your little sister is trying to kill our Wang family..." While crying, she beat her chest, "It's all my fault for giving birth to such a harmful spirit..."
"Mother, don't blame yourself, the younger sister is crazy, and it has nothing to do with you." Wang Ziteng regretted telling Mrs. Wang about this matter.
Under the comfort of her son, Mrs. Wang finally calmed down a little.
"This matter must not let the people sent by the emperor find out about your little sister, otherwise our Wang family will also be in bad luck."
Wang Ziteng nodded slightly: "I know, I have an idea in my mind."
"What's the idea?"
"Send someone to assassinate Jia Lian again, and push all the evidence to Jinling officials."
Mrs. Wang was frightened by her son's words, and she looked surprised: "Send someone to assassinate Jia Lian again? Are you crazy?"
"Mother, listen to me, only by sending someone to assassinate Jia Lian again and pointing all the blame at the officials in Jinling, will my little sister not be found out, and our Wang family will be safe and sound."
"Are you trying to blame Jinling officials?"
Wang Ziteng nodded slightly: "Yes, as long as this matter is involved in party disputes, the little girl will not be found out."
"The officials in Jinling are not fools, are they so easy to blame?"
"I heard that the emperor deliberately tested the eldest prince and the fourth prince for disaster relief in the south of the Yangtze River. Those officials in Jinling will definitely try their best to frame each other for their master to become the prince." Wang Ziteng analyzed, "Jia Lian was assassinated, maybe they I think it was done by the other party, and I am looking for evidence from the other party."
After hearing these words, Mrs. Wang finally understood, and felt that this proposal was good.
"It's a good idea, but we must be very careful when we do it, so as not to catch fire when the time comes."
"Mother, don't worry, if I do it, I won't leave anything behind." Wang Ziteng smiled confidently, "I will perfectly turn the blame of this matter on party disputes."
"Which prince are you planning to plant on?"
"The eldest prince!" In the competition between the first prince and the fourth prince, Wang Ziteng is more optimistic about the fourth prince. After all, the fourth prince was raised by the empress, and the most important thing is that the fourth prince has the support of Grand Master Yan.
At the beginning, both the First Prince and the Fourth Prince came to win him over, and he wanted to support the Fourth Prince, but he had just been promoted to be the Jiedu Envoy of the Beijing Camp, so he must not stand in line ahead of time, otherwise the Emperor would be angry.
Mrs. Wang nodded with satisfaction: "The fourth prince is orthodox, and it is right to support the fourth prince."
"My son thinks so too." Wang Ziteng said with a smile, "I can't support the fourth prince now, but I can sell it in advance."
"Then do as you say."
"Mother, what about my little sister?" Wang Ziteng mentioned Mrs. Wang, his eyes were full of disgust, "She has done wrong things again and again and brought our Wang family into trouble. This time, it will bring disaster to our Wang family!"
Before, Mrs. Wang and Wang Ziteng were very dissatisfied because Mrs. Wang slandered Jia Lian for making Jia Zhu crazy, and then accused Jia Lian of killing Jia Zhu, which ruined their Wang family's reputation.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang actually brought disaster to the Wang family this time, even if she was a mother, daughter, brother and sister, she couldn't tolerate it anymore.
"I'll go to Jia's mansion tomorrow to meet her and talk to her well. If she is stubborn, I will sever the mother-daughter relationship with her." Mrs. Wang is not so stupid as to make the whole family suffer for a married daughter. .
"If my younger sister still doesn't listen, I can only sever ties with her." He didn't want the entire Wang family to be buried with her.
"Well, regarding the assassination of Brother Lian, you tell those people not to really kill Brother Lian."
"Mother, you don't need to tell me, I know it too." He just wanted to point the finger at the eldest prince's people for this assassination, not really intending to kill Jia Lian.
Mrs. Wang suddenly thought of something, her eyes suddenly darkened: "As for finding someone to assassinate brother Lian, you should write a letter and ask Second Sister to send someone to assassinate him."
Hearing this, Wang Ziteng opened his mouth in surprise, with an unbelievable expression: "Mother, what do you mean...?"
"Jinling is her place, and it is most suitable for her to handle it."
"But..." Would I feel too sorry for my second sister?
"There is nothing but, this matter must be removed from our Wang family." Mrs. Wang said blankly, "Besides, your little sister wrote to her, even if she didn't do it, when it is found out, she will not be able to get rid of it." Relationship. Therefore, it is most appropriate to leave this matter to her. "
Wang Ziteng felt that what Mrs. Wang said was very reasonable, but the second sister had always been very kind to them, and he couldn't bear to treat the second sister like this.
Knowing what her son was thinking, Mrs. Wang sighed slightly and said, "Only in this way can we keep our Wang family. As long as there is nothing wrong with the Wang family, we can help if something happens to your second sister's house. But if something happens to us, you two The younger sister's family can't help. Do you understand?" She didn't want to do this either, but only by doing so can they keep their Wang family safe.
After hearing these words, Wang Ziteng felt that Mrs. Wang's words were very reasonable, and he didn't hesitate any more.
"Mother, you are right, I will write to my second sister right now."
"Go."
Wang Ziteng wrote a reply letter to Aunt Xue, and asked someone to send it to Xue's house in Jinling at an expedited speed of [-] miles.
The next day, Mrs. Wang went to Jia's mansion.
First, I had a good talk with Jia Mu for a while, and then I went to see Mrs. Wang alone.
With a bang, as soon as Mrs. Wang arrived at Mrs. Wang's room, she raised her hand and slapped Mrs. Wang hard.
Mrs. Wang's slap was very hard. Mrs. Wang was hit by Mrs. Wang and fell to the ground. She stretched out her hand to cover the swollen right cheek by Mrs. Wang, and stared at Mrs. Wang with wide eyes in disbelief: " Mother...why did you hit me?"
"I really want to be a daughter who will only bring you trouble without you."
"Mother, what are you talking about?" Mrs. Wang looked aggrieved.
"Before, you slandered Jia Lian for killing Brother Zhu, and you framed Jia Lian for killing Brother Zhu before his death, which completely ruined the reputation of our Wang family. Because of you, Sister Feng can't find a good family, so I can only say To Ningguo Mansion."
Mrs. Wang retorted unconvinced: "It was Jia Lian who killed Brother Zhu in the first place."
With a slap, Mrs. Wang raised her hand and slapped Mrs. Wang again, scolding angrily: "Brother Zhu died of his own illness, and it has nothing to do with Jia Lian. You are not allowed to say such things in the future."
"It was originally..."
"shut up!"
Mrs. Wang was frightened by Mrs. Wang's furious appearance, she obediently shut her mouth and dared not say anything.
"You ruined the reputation of the Wang family, so we just turned a blind eye. I didn't expect you to act so boldly and send someone to assassinate Jia Lian!" Mrs. Wang stared at Mrs. Wang coldly, "Who Give you the guts to assassinate Jia Lian?"
"I want to avenge Brother Zhu."
"You are not avenging Brother Zhu, you are letting the entire Wang family be buried with Brother Zhu!"
Mrs. Wang was shocked by Mrs. Wang's words, and said with a puzzled look: "Mother, what do you mean by that? How could I let the entire Wang family be buried with Zhu Geer?"
"What is Jia Lian's status now? The imperial court official is highly valued by the emperor." Mrs. Wang said coldly, "You actually sent someone to assassinate him! Have you thought about the consequences of killing the imperial court official?"
"It's impossible to find out that I sent someone."
"Impossible?" Mrs. Wang laughed angrily at Mrs. Wang's words, "After Jia Lian was assassinated, the emperor was furious and sent a special person to Jinling to investigate the matter. Do you think that what you did will not be found out? , as long as the emperor wants to know, there is nothing that cannot be found."
When Mrs. Wang heard these words, a strong fear surged up in her heart, her expression suddenly changed, but she still said stubbornly: "No...it won't be found..."
"It was you who were found out. Do you know what the consequences will be?" Mrs. Wang was so angry that she wanted to strangle Mrs. Wang's daughter to death right now, "The whole Wang family will be implicated by you!"
Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground, her body trembling slightly.
"You not only harmed the Wang family, but also your second sister's family." Mrs. Wang's face was cold, "You want to kill us all and bury them with Brother Zhu. You are not willing?"
Mrs. Wang shook her head quickly: "No, no... I just want to avenge Brother Zhu, and I don't want to harm the Wang family and Second Sister's family."
"But what you did will harm the Wang family and your second sister's family!" Mrs. Wang suddenly raised her voice, her tone full of blame.
Mrs. Wang's face turned pale, without a trace of blood, and her eyes were full of horror and fear. "I didn't I didn't I didn't..."
"Can't you use your brain before doing things, what should be done and what should not be done, do you want me to teach you again and again?"
Mrs. Wang knelt and crawled to Mrs. Wang's legs, stretched out her hand to grab Mrs. Wang's sleeves, and cried, "Mother, I'm sorry, I just wanted to avenge Brother Zhu, I didn't think so much..."
Mrs. Wang pushed Mrs. Wang away, "This is the last time I warn you, if you do stupid things again next time, I will sever the mother-daughter relationship with you!"
"Severing the relationship between mother and daughter?"
"This time, let's wipe your ass again. Next time you do such a stupid thing, I will treat it as if you don't have your daughter!" Mrs. Wang looked down at Mrs. Wang coldly, "I will do what I say. Now, I will never let you harm the Wang family!"
"Mother, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, and I will never do it again...don't deny my daughter..." Mrs. Wang knew in her heart that if the Wang family severed ties with her, she would definitely be kicked out. When she leaves Jia's mansion, she will have nothing at that time.
"You take care of yourself!" Mrs. Wang left after speaking, too lazy to look at Mrs. Wang again.
"Mom, I was wrong, I was really wrong
Jia Lian is now the only hope of the Jia family, and only he can restore the Jia family's title.If something happens to him, he can only count on Jia Baoyu, but Jia Baoyu is only two years old now.Waiting for him to get the title will take at least 20 years, when Jia Mu might pass away.
The Rongguo Mansion lost its title, and Mother Jia has always blamed herself. She hoped that before she died, the Jia Mansion could get the title back, so that after she died, she would go underground and have the face to meet her husband and the ancestors of the Jia family.
"Brother Lian is still a 15-year-old child, who is so cruel to kill a child?" Jia Mu said, wiping her tears.
Jia Min's eyes were already red from crying, and her voice was choked with sobs: "These devoid of conscience actually murdered a 15-year-old boy, brother Lian..." Brother Lian was just a small fifth-rank official who was sent to rescue the disaster It will not hinder the interests of those people. Why do those people want to be cruel to Brother Lian?
"My poor brother Lian..." Mother Jia cried very sadly while beating her breast.
"Brother Lian..." Jia Min was really worried about Jia Lian. If something happened to Jia Lian, her heart seemed to be ripped out alive.Thinking that Jia Lian's trip to the south of the Yangtze River was arranged by the emperor, Jia Min couldn't help blaming Emperor Longwu in his heart.Brother Lian was just a 15-year-old kid who was actually sent to Jiangnan.If Brother Lian hadn't gone to Jiangnan, nothing would have happened.
Jia Yuanchun's eyes were also red, with tears in his eyes, and he comforted Jia's mother and Jia Min with a choked voice: "Grandmother, aunt, Lian's younger brother is auspicious, and everything will be fine."
Hearing this, Jia Min raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face, and his eyes became firm: "Yes, Yuan Chun is right, brother Lian is a blessed child, he will definitely turn danger into good fortune, and nothing will happen to him." of!"
Jia's mother was comforted by Jia Min's words, "You are right, brother Lian is a lucky child, nothing will happen to him!"
"Mother, let's go to Fuling Temple tomorrow and pray for Brother Lian."
"it is good."
"Grandma, aunt, I'll go too."
"go together."
Jia Yuanchun frowned slightly, with a worried look on his face: "Auntie, I'm a little worried about Jing Rong. Brother Lian's life and death are unknown, so Jing Rong must be feeling bad."
When Jia Min heard this, she couldn't help worrying about Zhuang Jingrong.
"Let's go to Liuyuan Mansion now."
"it is good."
Jia's mother said: "Jingrong must be feeling uncomfortable now, you two should comfort her well."
"Mother, don't worry, we will comfort Jingrong well."
"It's also hard for the mirror, brother Lian was sent to Jiangnan for disaster relief as soon as he married." Mother Jia sighed heavily, "Brother Lian was assassinated not long after he arrived in Jiangnan. A young girl must not be able to bear this blow."
Jia Min and Jia Yuanchun bid farewell to Jia Mu and rushed to Liuyuan Mansion, only to hear that Zhuang Jingrong passed out.
Zhuang Jingrong woke up after being in a coma for half an hour. As soon as she woke up, she held Xia Ying's arm tightly and asked, "Is there any news about your husband? Is your husband all right?"
"Madam..." Xia Ying grew up with Zhuang Jingrong, the first time she saw Zhuang Jingrong's anxious and worried expression, she couldn't bear it, so she could only change the subject and say, "Madam, Mrs. Jia Min and Miss Yuanchun are here. "
"My aunt and elder sister are here." Zhuang Jingrong got up quickly, tidied up his appearance, and went out to meet Jia Min and Jia Yuanchun.
Seeing Zhuang Jingrong coming out, Jia Min immediately stood up, walked towards her, reached out to hold Zhuang Jingrong's hands, and comforted her gently: "Jingrong, brother Lian will be fine, don't worry too much."
Jia Yuanchun also came over, comforting: "Jingrong, Brother Lian's lucky star is shining brightly, everything will be fine!"
When Zhuang Jingrong heard what Jia Min and the others said, his eyes lit up immediately, and he asked excitedly, "Auntie, do you have any news about your husband?" The husband said that Jia's hometown is in Jinling, and there are still people there. Auntie They said so, it must be news from their hometown.
Seeing the hope in Zhuang Jingrong's eyes, Jia Min couldn't bear to tell her it wasn't right for a while, but she couldn't lie to her either, so she could only shake her head slightly: "No, we haven't heard from Brother Lian."
When Zhuang Jingrong heard this, his eyes that had just lit up suddenly became sad, and his expression became sad: "Husband, he..."
Jia Min held Zhuang Jingrong's hand tightly, and looked at her firmly: "Jingrong, you have to believe that brother Lian will be fine, he won six yuan in a row, and he is the Wenqu star descended from the people's mouth, how could it be so Do you have something to do when you are young?"
Jia Yuanchun echoed from the side and said, "Brother Lian, you will surely turn danger into good luck."
"If you are worried, let's go to Fuling Temple tomorrow to pray for Brother Lian!"
Zhuang Jingrong's panicked heart was relieved a little after Jia Min and Jia Yuanchun comforted her.
"Jingrong, at this time, the more you can't mess up, you have to firmly believe that brother Lian will be fine."
Jia Min's words were like a shot in the arm, and immediately calmed Zhuang Jingrong's flustered heart a lot.
"Auntie, you are right. I want to believe that your husband will be fine." My husband is a person who keeps promises. He said that he will come back from Jiangnan safely, and he will be safe. "Auntie, let's burn incense and pray for my husband tomorrow."
Jia Min saw that Zhuang Jingrong's expression had become firm, without the sadness and despair just now, she felt relieved instantly, and smiled at Zhuang Jingrong with relief.
"That's right."
"Auntie, big sister, thank you." When she heard that her husband had an accident, she panicked and didn't know what to do.Since she was a child, she has always been rational, no matter what happens, she will not panic.However, when she heard about her husband's accident, she lost all reason, and her whole heart was filled with panic and fear.This feeling, for the first time, was completely out of proportion.
Jia Min patted Zhuang Jingrong's hand lightly, and said with a smile, "Silly boy, we are one family, so what can we thank you for?"
"Thanks to my aunt and elder sister, I calmed down." Zhuang Jingrong expressed gratitude.
"We were afraid that you would be overwhelmed, so we came here to comfort you."
"I'm fine now." Zhuang Jingrong's mind became much calmer.
"That's good."
"Auntie, I'm going to visit my father and mother, they must be panicking too."
"Yes, yes, yes, brother and sister-in-law must be panicking too, let's go there together."
Zhuang Jingrong and the others went to Jia She's yard, and heard that Jia She had passed out and hadn't woken up until now.Although Mrs. Xing did not faint, she was still crying.
Jia Min and the others comforted Mrs. Xing for a long time, and Mrs. Xing finally stopped crying, and decided to go to Fuling Temple with Zhuang Jingrong and the others tomorrow to pray for Jia Lian.
Jia Lian was sent to the south of the Yangtze River for disaster relief, but many people were jealous, thinking that the emperor favored Jia Lian too much.However, now that they heard that Jia Lian was assassinated in the south of the Yangtze River, and his life and death are still unknown, the people who were jealous of Jia Lian before became gloating.
"I'm going to Jinling!"
"Father, if you go to Jinling now, it won't help."
"I have to go to Jinling!" Since receiving the news of Jia Lian's accident, the Supreme Emperor's heart has become very worried and anxious, wishing to fly to Jinling immediately with wings.
"The journey from the capital to Jinling will take half a month at the fastest. You are too old to rush on the road. You will probably fall ill before you arrive in Jinling." Emperor Longwu didn't understand why the Supreme Emperor cared so much about Jia Lian. This kind of concern was already too much A lot.
The Taishang Emperor's eyes were red with anxiety, and his expression was very anxious: "I am in good health, and I will be fine when I go to Jinling."
"Father, calm down. If you go to Jinling, you will miss the news from the secret guard." Emperor Longwu calmly comforted him, "The news from the secret guard didn't mean that Jia Lian would be fine as long as he survived these two days. , you have to trust that kid!"
"But..." He had watched the child leave him helplessly, and could no longer allow Jia Lian to leave him.
"Jiang Qingyun and the others invited Jia Lian a famous genius doctor in Jinling City. I heard that the genius doctor is very effective in treating patients. With him around, Jia Lian will be fine."
The Supreme Emperor was still worried, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do if he hurried over at this time.
"Just wait patiently for news."
The Supreme Emperor frowned tightly and did not speak for a long time, and finally heaved a long sigh: "Ah...he shouldn't be allowed to go to the south of the Yangtze River..."
When Emperor Longwu heard this, he rolled his eyes indecently: "Are you blaming me?"
When the Supreme Emperor heard this, he snorted coldly: "If there is something wrong with Jia Lian, I will settle the score with you again."
Emperor Longwu: "...Old man, Jia Lian must be your own grandson."
The Supreme Emperor ignored Emperor Longwu, turned around and left the imperial study, returned to his own palace, and sent two hidden guards to Jinling.
"Li Jinzhong, who do you think attacked Jia Lian?"
Li Jinzhong, who was standing on the side as the background board, was stunned by Emperor Longwu's sudden question, and then said blankly: "This...slave is stupid, I can't guess who shot Jia Lian." Li Jinzhong's heart is like a bright mirror Yes, the person who attacked Jia Lian was either the First Prince or the Fourth Prince.
Emperor Longwu didn't expect Li Jinzhong to give an answer. He tapped his index finger on the table lightly and looked thoughtful: "The people in Jinling are basically the boss and the fourth. The fourth is very important to Jia Lian. Someone assassinated Jia Lian. The boss is very likely."
When Li Jinzhong heard what Emperor Longwu said, he didn't speak, and pretended not to understand.
"Boss..." Emperor Longwu's eyes flashed a cold light, "I have turned a blind eye to Jiangnan's affairs these past few years, it's time to rectify."
When Li Jinzhong heard this, his heart trembled. The emperor said that the rectification was a big move. It is estimated that the officials in Jiangnan will have a big change.
At this time, Jiang Qingyun, who was far away in Jinling, was also worried about who assassinated Jia Lian. After investigating for a long time, there was no clue or clue.
Wang Shiwei and Zhang Shiwei can only judge from each other's moves that the man in black who assassinated Jia Lian should be a dead man, but it is unknown whose family raised the dead man.
We must know that no matter in the capital city or Jinling, many high-ranking officials and dignitaries like to raise the dead to protect themselves.
"The group of dead men didn't leave anything related to their identities, so it's hard to guess which family of dead men they belonged to."
"However, this group of dead soldiers ambushed us on our way back to the city, and then quickly evacuated. It can be seen that they are very familiar with the terrain outside Jinling."
Jiang Qingyun frowned slightly after listening to Zhang Shiwei and Wang Shiwei's analysis, "You mean these dead men are probably from Jinling?"
Guard Zhang nodded slightly: "Judging from their familiarity with the terrain, nine out of ten it is the land of Jinling."
"It's a native of Jinling, so it's easy to handle. Mr. Jiang can directly check which families in Jinling support the dead."
Jiang Qingyun had a direction in his mind, and immediately sent someone to investigate those families in Jinling who raised the dead, hoping to find clues.
After answering Jiang Qingyun's question, Zhang Shiwei and Wang Shiwei returned to Jia Lian's room and continued to guard Jia Lian's bedside.Jia Lian was assassinated this time, and blamed them for their inferior skills and lack of vigilance.
Jiang Qingyun sent people to investigate Jia Lian's murderer, and Jinling officials were also secretly investigating.
After Jia Lian was assassinated, the atmosphere in Jinling became tense, especially the relationship between officials became sharper.
Not long after Jia Lian was seriously injured, he started to have a high fever. He tried many methods but the fever did not go away. Seeing that Jia Lian was in danger, the doctor suddenly thought of a way to wipe Jia Lian's whole body with wine.After a while, Jia Lian's high fever subsided and his life was saved.
Seeing Jia Lian coming over, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.If Jia Lian had an accident in Jinling, all of them would be punished.
On the third day after Jia Lian survived, Emperor Longwu's imperial decree came to Jinling.
The general content of the imperial decree is that Emperor Longwu was very angry at Jia Lian's assassination and was very disappointed with the officials in Jinling.If Jia Lian had any problems, he would ask the officials of Jinling.If the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian cannot be investigated, he will question the officials of Jinling.
After receiving the imperial decree, the officials in Jinling discovered how much Emperor Longwu valued Jia Lian, and asked people from the capital to find out what Jia Lian was from, and why the emperor valued Jia Lian so much.
The officials in Jinling became more tense because of Emperor Longwu's edict.Fortunately, Jia Lian is fine now, and his life is not in danger.However, if the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian cannot be found, their life will still be difficult.
Not only that, Jinling officials still received letters from their masters, first scolding them, and then telling them to find the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian.No matter what method you use, you must clear yourself of suspicion.
The officials in Jinling decided to start cheating each other and put the suspicion on the other side.
Because of Jia Lian's assassination, Jinling officials were not in the mood to care about the disaster relief situation, which made the disaster relief work much smoother.
As an imperial envoy, Jiang Qingyun couldn't stay in Jinling all the time, after handling the disaster relief work in Jinling, and Jia Lian was not in danger of his life, he should leave Jinling and go to Suzhou.
Originally, he wanted to stay in Jinling until the murderer of Jia Lian was found out before leaving, but the emperor ordered him to continue to provide disaster relief.Regarding the search for the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian, someone will investigate.
"Master Jiang, I'm sorry, I can't go to Suzhou with you for disaster relief." Jia Lian apologized.
"You are seriously injured, it's better to stay in Jinling to recuperate." Jiang Qingyun also looked guilty, "I'm sorry that I hurt you."
"This has nothing to do with Lord Jiang."
"They should be targeting me, but I didn't expect to implicate you." Jiang Qingyun always felt that the target of the assassination should be him, not Jia Lian.However, there were many soldiers and guards around him, and the assassin couldn't do anything, so he had to deal ruthlessly with Jia Lian.
Jia Lian shook his head quickly: "Master Jiang, you didn't implicate me. Those people's target is me."
"Are you so sure?"
Jia Lian nodded slightly: "I felt that someone was following me some time ago, and I didn't take it to heart. Now it seems that these people have been eyeing me for a long time, and have been waiting for the opportunity to assassinate me."
"Is there such a thing?" Jiang Qingyun looked surprised, "It shouldn't be, you are only in charge of disaster relief and have not hindered them. Why would they kill you?"
Jia Lian didn't understand either, he was just a small fifth-rank official, and he didn't do anything to hinder the officials of Jinling.
After thinking about it, there is only one possibility.
"Perhaps, they want to put the charge of assassinating me on the other party's head, and then use this incident to bring down the other party."However, it is different to assassinate him. After all, he is only a fifth-rank official, even if he is killed, it will not cause any uproar.
Jiang Qingyun felt that Jia Lian's words made some sense, and his face turned cold involuntarily: "What you said is very likely!" If the purpose of Jinling officials is this, then... Jiang Qingyun's heart is suddenly full of worries , "Jia Lian, it will be dangerous for you to stay in Jinling."
"Didn't the emperor make a decree that if something happens to me, the officials in Jinling will be punished, and they shouldn't dare to attack me again."
Only then did Jiang Qingyun recall the previous imperial decree, and he felt relieved a lot: "Although this is the case, I still don't feel relieved to leave you alone in Jinling."
"Didn't the emperor send someone to Jinling again? I'll be fine. Master Jiang can go to Suzhou for relief."
Although Jiang Qingyun was worried about Jia Lian's safety, he couldn't take Jia Lian away. After all, Jia Lian's injury was too serious to travel long distances, so Jia Lian could only stay in Jinling.
"we can only do this."
"Master Jiang, I'll be fine!" Jia Lian smiled reassuringly at Jiang Qingyun.
"Well, I hope you can get better soon." Jiang Qingyun said with a smile, "You are better at disaster relief."
"Master Jiang is modest."
Jiang Qingyun chatted with Jia Lian for a while, then left.
Before he left Jinling, he deliberately left 10 taels of silver, and the officials in Jinling did not refuse, and took the 10 taels of silver unceremoniously.
The news that Jia Lian's life was safe and sound spread back to the capital soon.
The Supreme Emperor received the news from the hidden guards, knowing that Jia Lian survived and his life was not in danger, his fearful heart was finally relieved.
"I just said that the kid is going to be safe, do you think I'm right?" Emperor Longwu was relieved when he received the news that Jia Lian was safe and sound.
"Well, you're right." The Taishanghuang finally showed a smile on his tense face for the past few days.
Emperor Longwu felt very complicated when he saw the appearance of the Supreme Emperor.Two days ago, he learned from the queen mother why the emperor cared about Jia Lian, but he didn't expect it to be related to his brother who died young.He didn't think Jia Lian was like the emperor's brother who died young before, but now he realized that Jia Lian really looked like the emperor's brother. No wonder he felt familiar with Jia Lian the first time he saw him, so it was because of this.
When the emperor's brother passed away, he was still young, and his impression of the emperor's brother was very vague, so he didn't realize that Jia Lian was like the emperor's brother.
Jia Lian is like a deceased imperial brother, no wonder the old man loves him so much.
When Emperor Longwu was bullied by other princes when he was young, the elder brother who died young once helped him.Because of that imperial brother, the life of the Empress Dowager and Emperor Longwu in the palace was easier at that time.
Emperor Longwu has always been grateful to his elder brother who died young.It's just that with the passage of time, he gradually forgot the existence of the emperor's brother, and naturally he didn't remember what the emperor's brother looked like.However, after hearing what the Queen Mother said, Brother Huang's face suddenly became clear in his mind.
After learning why the Supreme Emperor loves Jia Lian, Emperor Longwu's attitude towards Jia Lian also changed.
The news that Jia Lian was fine quickly spread throughout the capital, making those who were jealous of Jia Lian very uncomfortable, thinking that Jia Lian's fate was really serious, and he was assassinated to the point where his life and death were unknown, but he was still alive.
When Jia's mother learned that Jia Lian was fine, she thanked God and thanked all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.Jia Lian is not dead, so there is hope for their Jia family to restore their titles.
"What, Jia Lian is not dead?!" Mrs. Wang was furious when she heard the news, "It's not that he is unknown, why is he not dead?"
Zhou Rui's family was frightened by Mrs. Wang's distorted appearance, and said fearfully: "The rumors in the capital say so, that Master Lian is not dead yet."
With a bang, Mrs. Wang grabbed a teacup on the table and slammed it on the ground.
"Madam..." Zhou Rui's family was so frightened that they hid in the corner and shivered.
Mrs. Wang's expression was distorted, she gritted her teeth and scolded: "He is really lucky, he was stabbed so badly, yet he is still alive!"
Zhou Rui's family thought that his wife had indeed sent someone to assassinate Young Master Lian.
Mrs. Wang's face was stern: "If you can't kill him once, then assassinate him twice." Although Jia Lian did not die, he was seriously injured. If he assassinates him again at this time, he will definitely be able to kill him.
Zhou Rui's family thought Mrs. Wang was really crazy and wanted to kill Jia Lian.It seems that Mrs. Wang will not give up unless Jia Lian is completely killed.
Mrs. Wang wrote another letter to Aunt Xue, asking Aunt Xue to send someone to assassinate Jia Lian again, and Jia Lian must be put to death.
Here, Mrs. Wang wrote another letter to Aunt Xue.Over there, the letter written by Aunt Xue to Wang Ziteng was delivered to Wang Ziteng.
When Wang Ziteng received Aunt Xue's letter, he was so angry that he wanted to run to Jia's mansion and shoot Mrs. Wang to death with a brick, so as not to hurt the Wang family.
Wang Ziteng's wife came to ask him to eat, and seeing his angry face livid, she was very worried: "Husband, what's wrong with you, who made you angry?"
"How could I have such a stupid sister?!"
Wang Ziteng's wife was stunned for a moment, then said cautiously: "Your husband is talking about the younger sister?"
"Who else is there besides her?" Wang Ziteng looked angry, "Sooner or later our Wang family will be implicated to death by her."
When Wang Ziteng's wife heard this, her face turned pale with fright: "I've been implicated to death? What did my little sister do?"
"She actually sent someone to Jinling to assassinate Jia Lian!" The prince slammed the table angrily, "Jia Lian's assassination angered the emperor, and the emperor sent someone to Jinling to investigate the murderer of Jia Lian. If it is found out that it is the younger sister If you do, our Wang family will also be implicated by her."
Wang Ziteng's wife's eyes widened, her face was horrified, and she stammered, "Little sister...is she crazy...to send someone to assassinate Jia Lian..."
"How can there be such a stupid person in our Wang family?" Wang Ziteng tried his best to win Jia Lian, but luckily, his own sister sent someone to assassinate Jia Lian.
"Husband, what should we do?" The assassination of Jia Lian in Jinling made the emperor furious, and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, but the murderer could not be found, and all officials in Jinling would be implicated. This shows how much the emperor values Jia Lian .Unexpectedly, the murderer who assassinated Jia Lian was my sister-in-law. If the emperor knew about it, their royal family would be finished.
Wang Ziteng took several deep breaths, trying to suppress the overwhelming anger and killing intent in his heart, "I will go to my mother to discuss this matter."
After hearing her son's words, Mrs. Wang knocked over the teacup in her hand in shock, and said in shock, "You said my younger sister sent someone to assassinate Jia Lian?"
Wang Ziteng handed Aunt Xue's letter to Mrs. Wang: "Mother, this is the second sister's letter, you can read it yourself."
Mrs. Wang took the letter and read it carefully from beginning to end.After reading the letter, her hands trembled slightly.
"Mother, the emperor has sent someone to Jinling to investigate Jia Lian's assassination." Wang Ziteng frowned, his face full of worry, "If the emperor wants to investigate something thoroughly, he will definitely find out the truth. , she must have left some clues, so that people can quickly find out that she did it. What should I do now?"
Mrs. Wang was so angry that she almost fainted, "How could I have given birth to such a beast..." Mrs. Wang is very regretful now, regretting that she spoiled Mrs. Wang so much back then.If she had known that Mrs. Wang would bring trouble to the family, she should have strangled her little daughter to death.
Wang Ziteng hurried over, patted Mrs. Wang's chest, and helped her calm down: "Mother, calm down..."
Old Mrs. Wang was angry with tears in her eyes, "Your little sister is trying to kill our Wang family..." While crying, she beat her chest, "It's all my fault for giving birth to such a harmful spirit..."
"Mother, don't blame yourself, the younger sister is crazy, and it has nothing to do with you." Wang Ziteng regretted telling Mrs. Wang about this matter.
Under the comfort of her son, Mrs. Wang finally calmed down a little.
"This matter must not let the people sent by the emperor find out about your little sister, otherwise our Wang family will also be in bad luck."
Wang Ziteng nodded slightly: "I know, I have an idea in my mind."
"What's the idea?"
"Send someone to assassinate Jia Lian again, and push all the evidence to Jinling officials."
Mrs. Wang was frightened by her son's words, and she looked surprised: "Send someone to assassinate Jia Lian again? Are you crazy?"
"Mother, listen to me, only by sending someone to assassinate Jia Lian again and pointing all the blame at the officials in Jinling, will my little sister not be found out, and our Wang family will be safe and sound."
"Are you trying to blame Jinling officials?"
Wang Ziteng nodded slightly: "Yes, as long as this matter is involved in party disputes, the little girl will not be found out."
"The officials in Jinling are not fools, are they so easy to blame?"
"I heard that the emperor deliberately tested the eldest prince and the fourth prince for disaster relief in the south of the Yangtze River. Those officials in Jinling will definitely try their best to frame each other for their master to become the prince." Wang Ziteng analyzed, "Jia Lian was assassinated, maybe they I think it was done by the other party, and I am looking for evidence from the other party."
After hearing these words, Mrs. Wang finally understood, and felt that this proposal was good.
"It's a good idea, but we must be very careful when we do it, so as not to catch fire when the time comes."
"Mother, don't worry, if I do it, I won't leave anything behind." Wang Ziteng smiled confidently, "I will perfectly turn the blame of this matter on party disputes."
"Which prince are you planning to plant on?"
"The eldest prince!" In the competition between the first prince and the fourth prince, Wang Ziteng is more optimistic about the fourth prince. After all, the fourth prince was raised by the empress, and the most important thing is that the fourth prince has the support of Grand Master Yan.
At the beginning, both the First Prince and the Fourth Prince came to win him over, and he wanted to support the Fourth Prince, but he had just been promoted to be the Jiedu Envoy of the Beijing Camp, so he must not stand in line ahead of time, otherwise the Emperor would be angry.
Mrs. Wang nodded with satisfaction: "The fourth prince is orthodox, and it is right to support the fourth prince."
"My son thinks so too." Wang Ziteng said with a smile, "I can't support the fourth prince now, but I can sell it in advance."
"Then do as you say."
"Mother, what about my little sister?" Wang Ziteng mentioned Mrs. Wang, his eyes were full of disgust, "She has done wrong things again and again and brought our Wang family into trouble. This time, it will bring disaster to our Wang family!"
Before, Mrs. Wang and Wang Ziteng were very dissatisfied because Mrs. Wang slandered Jia Lian for making Jia Zhu crazy, and then accused Jia Lian of killing Jia Zhu, which ruined their Wang family's reputation.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang actually brought disaster to the Wang family this time, even if she was a mother, daughter, brother and sister, she couldn't tolerate it anymore.
"I'll go to Jia's mansion tomorrow to meet her and talk to her well. If she is stubborn, I will sever the mother-daughter relationship with her." Mrs. Wang is not so stupid as to make the whole family suffer for a married daughter. .
"If my younger sister still doesn't listen, I can only sever ties with her." He didn't want the entire Wang family to be buried with her.
"Well, regarding the assassination of Brother Lian, you tell those people not to really kill Brother Lian."
"Mother, you don't need to tell me, I know it too." He just wanted to point the finger at the eldest prince's people for this assassination, not really intending to kill Jia Lian.
Mrs. Wang suddenly thought of something, her eyes suddenly darkened: "As for finding someone to assassinate brother Lian, you should write a letter and ask Second Sister to send someone to assassinate him."
Hearing this, Wang Ziteng opened his mouth in surprise, with an unbelievable expression: "Mother, what do you mean...?"
"Jinling is her place, and it is most suitable for her to handle it."
"But..." Would I feel too sorry for my second sister?
"There is nothing but, this matter must be removed from our Wang family." Mrs. Wang said blankly, "Besides, your little sister wrote to her, even if she didn't do it, when it is found out, she will not be able to get rid of it." Relationship. Therefore, it is most appropriate to leave this matter to her. "
Wang Ziteng felt that what Mrs. Wang said was very reasonable, but the second sister had always been very kind to them, and he couldn't bear to treat the second sister like this.
Knowing what her son was thinking, Mrs. Wang sighed slightly and said, "Only in this way can we keep our Wang family. As long as there is nothing wrong with the Wang family, we can help if something happens to your second sister's house. But if something happens to us, you two The younger sister's family can't help. Do you understand?" She didn't want to do this either, but only by doing so can they keep their Wang family safe.
After hearing these words, Wang Ziteng felt that Mrs. Wang's words were very reasonable, and he didn't hesitate any more.
"Mother, you are right, I will write to my second sister right now."
"Go."
Wang Ziteng wrote a reply letter to Aunt Xue, and asked someone to send it to Xue's house in Jinling at an expedited speed of [-] miles.
The next day, Mrs. Wang went to Jia's mansion.
First, I had a good talk with Jia Mu for a while, and then I went to see Mrs. Wang alone.
With a bang, as soon as Mrs. Wang arrived at Mrs. Wang's room, she raised her hand and slapped Mrs. Wang hard.
Mrs. Wang's slap was very hard. Mrs. Wang was hit by Mrs. Wang and fell to the ground. She stretched out her hand to cover the swollen right cheek by Mrs. Wang, and stared at Mrs. Wang with wide eyes in disbelief: " Mother...why did you hit me?"
"I really want to be a daughter who will only bring you trouble without you."
"Mother, what are you talking about?" Mrs. Wang looked aggrieved.
"Before, you slandered Jia Lian for killing Brother Zhu, and you framed Jia Lian for killing Brother Zhu before his death, which completely ruined the reputation of our Wang family. Because of you, Sister Feng can't find a good family, so I can only say To Ningguo Mansion."
Mrs. Wang retorted unconvinced: "It was Jia Lian who killed Brother Zhu in the first place."
With a slap, Mrs. Wang raised her hand and slapped Mrs. Wang again, scolding angrily: "Brother Zhu died of his own illness, and it has nothing to do with Jia Lian. You are not allowed to say such things in the future."
"It was originally..."
"shut up!"
Mrs. Wang was frightened by Mrs. Wang's furious appearance, she obediently shut her mouth and dared not say anything.
"You ruined the reputation of the Wang family, so we just turned a blind eye. I didn't expect you to act so boldly and send someone to assassinate Jia Lian!" Mrs. Wang stared at Mrs. Wang coldly, "Who Give you the guts to assassinate Jia Lian?"
"I want to avenge Brother Zhu."
"You are not avenging Brother Zhu, you are letting the entire Wang family be buried with Brother Zhu!"
Mrs. Wang was shocked by Mrs. Wang's words, and said with a puzzled look: "Mother, what do you mean by that? How could I let the entire Wang family be buried with Zhu Geer?"
"What is Jia Lian's status now? The imperial court official is highly valued by the emperor." Mrs. Wang said coldly, "You actually sent someone to assassinate him! Have you thought about the consequences of killing the imperial court official?"
"It's impossible to find out that I sent someone."
"Impossible?" Mrs. Wang laughed angrily at Mrs. Wang's words, "After Jia Lian was assassinated, the emperor was furious and sent a special person to Jinling to investigate the matter. Do you think that what you did will not be found out? , as long as the emperor wants to know, there is nothing that cannot be found."
When Mrs. Wang heard these words, a strong fear surged up in her heart, her expression suddenly changed, but she still said stubbornly: "No...it won't be found..."
"It was you who were found out. Do you know what the consequences will be?" Mrs. Wang was so angry that she wanted to strangle Mrs. Wang's daughter to death right now, "The whole Wang family will be implicated by you!"
Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground, her body trembling slightly.
"You not only harmed the Wang family, but also your second sister's family." Mrs. Wang's face was cold, "You want to kill us all and bury them with Brother Zhu. You are not willing?"
Mrs. Wang shook her head quickly: "No, no... I just want to avenge Brother Zhu, and I don't want to harm the Wang family and Second Sister's family."
"But what you did will harm the Wang family and your second sister's family!" Mrs. Wang suddenly raised her voice, her tone full of blame.
Mrs. Wang's face turned pale, without a trace of blood, and her eyes were full of horror and fear. "I didn't I didn't I didn't..."
"Can't you use your brain before doing things, what should be done and what should not be done, do you want me to teach you again and again?"
Mrs. Wang knelt and crawled to Mrs. Wang's legs, stretched out her hand to grab Mrs. Wang's sleeves, and cried, "Mother, I'm sorry, I just wanted to avenge Brother Zhu, I didn't think so much..."
Mrs. Wang pushed Mrs. Wang away, "This is the last time I warn you, if you do stupid things again next time, I will sever the mother-daughter relationship with you!"
"Severing the relationship between mother and daughter?"
"This time, let's wipe your ass again. Next time you do such a stupid thing, I will treat it as if you don't have your daughter!" Mrs. Wang looked down at Mrs. Wang coldly, "I will do what I say. Now, I will never let you harm the Wang family!"
"Mother, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, and I will never do it again...don't deny my daughter..." Mrs. Wang knew in her heart that if the Wang family severed ties with her, she would definitely be kicked out. When she leaves Jia's mansion, she will have nothing at that time.
"You take care of yourself!" Mrs. Wang left after speaking, too lazy to look at Mrs. Wang again.
"Mom, I was wrong, I was really wrong
