Jia Lian sneered and said, "It's true that something is wrong, but who would dare to make trouble in front of the noble concubine? Let alone an official from the official department, even the elder and second masters in the mansion would not dare to say anything in front of the noble concubine." Half a word. The day before yesterday, the imperial concubine was in town and demolished a small part of the Grand View Garden. Most of the trees, flowers and birds in it were sold off, which solved another urgent need. But how many things in the mansion can be sold, and how many can be sold? How many more times will it be sold? Besides, most of the things in this mansion have been taken care of by their second house. The old man and I are in this mansion. Grandpa can’t manage it, and there’s no place to manage it.”

Afterwards, there seemed to be some resentment.

Jiang Ling was silent for a while, before saying: "I never thought that once the concubine returned to the mansion, there would be so many troubles."

Jia Lian sneered and said, "Who says it's not? Now everyone in the whole house is looking at the imperial concubine alone. The imperial concubine points east and dares not go west. Whoever dares to disobey the imperial concubine's wishes will have to go mad. Even if it is Anyone who is usually submissive may be caught in the wrong place at this time and be severely reprimanded last time. If you are in the mansion, you should see clearly."

Jiang Ling lowered his eyes slightly, and murmured, "So that's how it is."

At the beginning, Jia Yuanchun insisted on staying in Rongguo Mansion. Apart from his serious illness, the thorough investigation of Rongguo Mansion should also be an important reason.Just as Jia Lian said just now, after Jiamu passed away, the entire family was in a mess. At this moment, Jia Yuanchun took over the duties of Jiamu, supporting Rongguo Mansion outside, and sitting in Rongguo Mansion inside to stabilize the situation.Since Jia Yuanchun is a noble concubine herself, no matter inside or outside the Rongguo Mansion, it is rare for anyone to belittle her face face to face, thus resulting in the current situation.

Jiang Ling thought for a while, and then asked, "How is the eldest girl's illness?"

Jia Lian sneered again, and said, "I also want to know how sick the imperial concubine is. The heavenly family kindly sent four or five imperial physicians to the Rongguo mansion to treat the imperial concubine, but one said that the imperial concubine was dying, and the other said The imperial concubine just got worse from the wind and cold. Another said that the imperial concubine's medicine should be increased by three points, and another said that it should be reduced by three points according to the situation. I really don't know which one to listen to. Later, Baoyu personally invited a folk doctor Only then did the old doctor give a prescription for the illness."

For some reason, Jiang Ling suddenly remembered what he had just heard before, "Concubine Yi called an imperial doctor to enter the palace for questioning".

Jia Lian said again: "But our aunt, I don't know if she was given *soup by the second room. She dragged her sick early this morning and went to the Grand View Garden again. The second room said that it is a good thing to separate the family. Seeing that the noble concubine and the patriarch are here, they have divided up the family and accounts to save trouble in the future. I have asked, they want to occupy the majority of the family, split up all the useful things, and return them to the Wang family. I wrote a letter, but my father stopped me for a few days, and it should be sent to Jinling now. What do you think should be the next chapter?"

Now Jia Lian was uncharacteristically asking Jiang Ling what the rules were.

Jiang Ling lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said: "I think, it's better for the second master to get rid of them as soon as possible."

Whether it was Jia Yuanchun's obstruction of official duties last time or Jia Yuanchun's illness, it was a very bad sign.

but……

"I thought so too at first," Jia Lian said, "but then I thought about it, and now that I've cleared up the relationship, it will inevitably make them cheaper. I can't say, I have to make a total calculation, and put another stumbling block for Baoyu to let him It is reasonable to stay at home all the time and not be able to go anywhere. Tell me, if Baoyu really stays at home, would Xue Baochai and the Xue family be of any use?"

Jiang Ling was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously said: "The Xue family is an imperial merchant."

Jia Lian's eyes lit up all of a sudden, he patted his thigh and said: "Ah! The Xue family is an imperial merchant, no matter whether it is old or young, it is not as deep-rooted as the Wang family. Now that even the Wang family has collapsed, how can the Xue family survive?" Can you live? You boy, smart."

Jiang Ling lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time.

Jia Lian murmured for a long time in his dream, and it was not until the next morning that Jiang Ling sent him out.

Last night, Jia Lian actually revealed a lot of information. For example, Jia Baoyu stayed at home and made frequent mistakes.But Mrs. Wang protects the calf, and whenever Jia Zheng wants to fight, she rushes to stop her.Although Jia's mother is gone now, there is still Jia Yuanchun who obeys Mrs. Wang's words.Jia Zheng tried a few times, but Jia Baoyu was allowed to hide in the past. Of course, there was smoke from the seven orifices, and he would rather teach Jia Lan how to trace red than bother them anymore.

Even if Jia Zheng didn't care, the Rongguo Mansion would naturally be more concerned with the second-bedroom wives.

In the beginning, Aunt Zhao and Mrs. Xing would criticize a few words. Later, Aunt Zhao shrank her head, Mrs. Xing kept her mouth shut, and Mrs. Wang had all the power. With Jia Yuanchun as the Dinghaishenzhen and Xue Baochai as her helper, it was actually considered a It is stable.

But other people's life is not easy.

Jiang Ling waited in the palace for a few days, and waited for the news brought back by his trusted nuns.

When Jia Yuanchun returned to the Rongguo Mansion, he really supported the Rongguo Mansion, and the effect was not bad.Officials from the Ministry of Officials went to Rongguo Mansion to ask several times, but she stopped them all and did not get any results.As for the Wang family and Xue family without the support of the noble concubine, as well as the Ningguo Mansion next door, it was considered a catastrophe.Several masters and young masters of the main family were impeached one after another, and there was no room for maneuver.The Xue family is fine, last year it was seriously injured, and this year it suffered less; the Wang family is also fine, because they have already been dismissed from office, and now they are just fined with their old salary and can barely survive.Only Ningguo Mansion, because the surname is Jia, has no fewer incidents than the neighbors, so it has suffered a catastrophe.

The old man really became a monk and became a Taoist priest, and all the men in the mansion who cut the feudal lord's orders were all turned into white bodies.

Seeing these things in the eyes of the Rongguo Mansion, it is inevitable that they feel a little bit sad.Jia Yuanchun, who was recovering from illness in the mansion, and Jia Zheng and Jia Baoyu, who were idle at home, all felt sorry for each other.Once again, Jia Yuanchun used his identity to block many things for the Rongguo Mansion.

In October, Jia Yuanchun's illness became more serious, and it was difficult to even support them.

At this time, Concubine Hui asked for an order to go out of the palace to visit relatives.

Concubine Hui has a handle in Jia Yuanchun's hands, and many people in the palace know this.It was also for this reason that Concubine Hui frequently targeted Concubine Jia in the past.Jia Yuanchun went out of the palace to recuperate, and the eyeliners that Concubine Hui left in her palace all became blind with their eyes open, so it was inevitable that they would feel unhappy.

So at this time, Concubine Hui asked for an order to go back to the mansion to visit relatives, and happened to "pass by" Rongguo Mansion.

Then, under the pretext of visiting a doctor, she went to Rongguo Mansion to visit Jia Yuanchun.

Jia Yuanchun was already seriously ill, and he didn't want to see outsiders again.But this time Concubine Hui came out of the palace for Jia Yuanchun, how could she give up and send all the people in the house to the courtyard to talk to Jia Yuanchun alone.Xue Baochai wanted to stay, but couldn't.

The people kneeling in a courtyard outside were all waiting anxiously.

After a while, Jia Yuanchun yelled sharply: "Get out!" He coughed up blood again and again, abruptly aggravating his illness by two points.

But it was not until noon that day that Concubine Hui came out of Jia Yuanchun's room.No one knows what they all said.

In the evening of the same day, Jia Yuanchun's condition worsened again, and Jia Baoyu had to go to the imperial hospital again, and invited back all the imperial doctors he could invite.After the doctors made the diagnosis, they all came to the conclusion: it won't last long, just prepare for the funeral.

At that time, the whole family cried bitterly, they invited all the famous doctors and quack doctors in the capital, and asked how many doctors who had rejuvenated their lives, and they all said that it was hopeless.However, a doctor secretly told them: "Your master should have been cut off the medicine, otherwise the disease would not come back and forth until today. You can check the original prescription."

But those prescriptions at the beginning were changed three or four times in succession, and the number of people who handled them was countless. The steward's wife who bought the medicine, the shop guy who took the medicine, and the fire maid who cooked the medicine, everyone might have made a mistake.Jia Zheng was investigating, but found nothing.

Jia Yuanchun could only stay in bed day after day, counting the days.

After another two days, the Ministry of Officials finally cleared up the case and requested an order to search the Rongguo Mansion.

This time, the ones who ransacked the house were the same few officials who cleaned up the Rongguo Mansion last year.Some time ago, when Jia Yuanchun split the Grand View Garden, the accounts of the long room and the second room were separated. Although they still live together, they have obviously separated. good.Although Jia Yuanchun was seriously ill, he came out to stop him once, but he didn't stop him.

This time the imperial decree was stricter than any previous one. The case records accumulated by the Rongguo Mansion over the past 30 or [-] years were written on the imperial decree one by one, in black and white, and accompanied by two large boxes of evidence. At the end of the day.

At the end of the imperial decree, Jia Yuanchun added another crime: as a noble concubine, she tried to interfere with public affairs and was demoted to concubine concubine; The misfortune of practicing witchcraft, and then demoted to two ranks, to be permanent, with a staff of forty, and thrown into the cold palace; That is, move forward.

As soon as this imperial edict came out, everyone in Rongguo Mansion was stunned.

Immediately afterwards, people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to take back the treasures of the royal concubine's court clothes, and burned them one by one in front of them.

When Mrs. Wang first heard the thunderbolt from the blue sky, she fainted on the spot, and was supported by Xue Baochai and Li Wan into the house.After the Ministry of Internal Affairs burned the treasures, they invited two more imperial physicians to Jia Yuanchun, and said, "Don't die before Rehe."

But at that time, the person was already terminally ill, so inviting two more imperial physicians would be nothing more than hanging his life.

A huge storm has not yet subsided, and another storm swept Rongguo Mansion.

The entire Rongguo Mansion cut titles, dismissed officials, and seized imperial orders, which was exactly the same as the Ningguo Mansion next door.

The next day, Mrs. Wang woke up slowly. She was dumbfounded, her eyes were dull, and she sat in the room for a whole day.The wooden fish and Buddhist scriptures she was used to were all kept for her, but now the whole house has been confiscated, and even the titles have been cut off. Even if there are wooden fish and Buddhist scriptures, what's the use?

Mrs. Wang sat withered for a whole day, and sat for a whole night. It was not until the third morning that she came to Jia Yuanchun's room with disheveled hair.At that time, Jia Yuanchun had already passed out, Xue Baochai waited on him, knelt in front of the bed holding Qin and just cried, Mrs. Wang called Baoqin, her eyes were red and swollen, and asked in a ferocious voice: "Can you go back to the palace? "

Baoqin's identity is a court lady, although Jia Yuanchun was relegated, but she does not seem to be implicated.

After getting an affirmative answer, Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth again and said, "Go into the palace and tell Concubine Hui that the imperial concubine in the palace used to be a maid in our mansion."
