Master of Karma in the Red Chamber

"Why don't you think twice before the ironclad evidence"!"

The emperor turned to glance at the crowd sharply, and asked with a smile, Zuo Du Yushi Fan Qingsheng, Kang Wang Duan Gaoyu and others, if they had any substantive evidence to refute it, and without further ado, he immediately ordered Prince Teng to be dismissed from his post and his house ransacked.Wang Ziteng was sentenced to eight years in prison and will leave immediately tomorrow.As for the family members of the Wang family, they thought that the ancestors of the Wang family had done meritorious deeds, and the emperor did not punish them for their kindness, but the palace and property of the Wang family will be confiscated by the court.

As a second-rank official, no one expected that because of a crime of corruption, things would change in the blink of an eye in a few days.

After coming down, Duan Gaoyu looked unkind, and angrily led the two ministers to brush past Yan Liang, then stood still, and turned to stare at him fiercely.When he found that Yan Liang didn't look at him at all, Duan Gaoyu became more hostile, snorted coldly, and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Standing not far from Yan Liang, Wu Min and Qi Shengao both watched the scene.

Wu Min leaned into Yan Liang's ear and said sarcastic words in his free time: "You just got promoted, and you set fire to Prince Kang, you are really courageous. In fact, all civil and military officials in the court know what kind of prince Teng is. , it’s just because of the person behind him, I don’t dare to offend you, but you are amazing. Those two years in the Taoist temple didn’t really make you stupid, did you?”

"Wu Min, don't talk nonsense." Qi Shen said sternly.

Wu Min shrugged his shoulders and left resentfully.

Qi Shen took a high look at Yan Liang, his brows were furrowed with no intention of flattening.He didn't say anything, and left silently.

Yan Liang felt that these people were a little nervous, so he returned to the Ministry of Officials to continue his official duties.The people in the official department have also changed a bit, their eyes are not right, even the attitude of the people around him has changed, they are more respectful, but there is fear in their eyes.Some petty officials who couldn't contain their emotions were even a little frightened when they saw him, and their hands trembled.

Yan Liang just took office, and dealt with a second-rank official who was charged with corruption, and it caused such a big disturbance in the court.It can be seen that this prince Teng has some influence in Beijing.

No wonder the emperor wanted to pull Prince Teng off his horse. Based on the reaction of the people, if he was kept, this person would definitely have the power to shake the imperial power.

Yan Liang checked the file of Liu Shichang, a subordinate of Wang Ziteng, and asked someone to send it to Dali Temple.This Liu Shichang, as Wang Ziteng's right-hand man, has helped him do many bad things. As long as he is interrogated strictly, he will definitely make him confess more crimes about Wang Ziteng.

"This man has been tortured in Dali Temple, and his mouth is very hard, so far he hasn't said anything." Shi Yun and Yan Liang, the officials' doctors, carefully explained.

Yan Liang suddenly looked up at Shi Yun.Shi Yun was startled, and hurriedly avoided his eyes, looking anxious.

"Even you are the same, useless." Yan Liang took a picture of the file in his hand and said coldly.

Shi Yun shivered, froze, and then looked back at Yan Liang, "Who said I was afraid? I am not afraid! When I was a doctor of the Ministry of officials with my lord, I knew that my lord was not Chi Zhongwu, it will definitely be promoted in the future. I just didn’t expect that the day would come so quickly. My lord is virtuous, upright and upright, and he is a model for lower officials to learn from.”

Shi Yun solemnly bowed to Yan Liang.

Yan Liang narrowed his eyes, disliked Shi Yun's wordiness, and didn't like being flattered like this.

Seeing that Yan Liang's expression was wrong, Shi Yun asked nervously, "My lord?"

Yan Liang smiled: "I asked you if you were afraid?"

Shi Yun was taken aback for a moment, feeling embarrassed and ashamed.He called it '300 taels of silver here'.The adults didn't ask him if he was afraid, but he admitted it first. Obviously he was guilty or afraid.

"The lower official is stupid, I know I'm wrong." Shi Yun bowed again, and a person should be like Master Jia Shilang, not surprised by honor or disgrace, and unchanged by surprise.When did he have such a bearing, maybe there is still hope to rise further.

Strange to say, if Jia Shilang's promotion was put on someone else, he would definitely feel unfair and jealous to death.At the beginning, they were both doctors of the Ministry of Officials, and Shi Yun himself stayed seven years longer than Yan Liang.But it only took two or three months for someone to be promoted to a second-rank official. This kind of gap will naturally make people jealous.But this matter happened to be on Jia Yanliang, Shi Yun was convinced, and he didn't have any acid in his heart.

Yan Liang: "Tell the people in Dali Temple that Liu Shichang's family members will also be investigated. Shi Yun, among the officials, I like you the most. Just do your job well and do your duty."

Shi Yun has some shortcomings, such as being narrow-minded and calculating, but his nature is not bad.He has no career, a clean background, and a kind and honest person. He is regarded as a clear stream among the officials of the official department, and he is a good piece of jade, which will be polished slowly in the future.

Shi Yun nodded flattered.

"You take this thing to Dali Temple." Yan Liang handed the envelope containing Liu Shichang's information to Shi Yun.Yan Liang intends to take him in as his confidant, so in the past two days in the official department, he especially likes to ask him to run errands.

After Shi Yun saluted, he obeyed obediently and went.

After Yan Liang was released from duty, he ran into Lin Ruhai again.This time Lin Ruhai still had a look of embarrassment on his face, he felt a little embarrassed after seeing Yan Liang.He bowed politely, and asked Yan Liang if he had time to chat with him alone with an apologetic expression.

Yan Liang nodded, and took Lin Ruhai directly to Guangyuan Building.Originally, it was okay to talk at home, but considering that the Rong Mansion is not peaceful, Guangyuan Building is quieter.

Lin Ruhai was a little nervous before the formal talk, so he picked up a piece of Guangyuanlou pastry, his eyes lit up, and he smiled and praised its delicious taste.

Yan Liang had enough time to accompany him, and asked the waiter in the shop to serve some more snacks, so that he could eat as he pleased without being in a hurry.

"Then I won't be too polite. Please pack these things up. I want to take them home to eat with my wife and children." Bie Ruhai said with a relaxed expression, smiling.

Yan Liang asked people to do so, and then asked Lin Ruhai to get straight to the point.

"Don't blame me for being nosy, what are you going to do with Wang Ziteng's affairs? Just continue like this?" Lin Ruhai asked softly.

Yan Liang: "Everything is official."

Lin Ruhai said anxiously: "You know that's not what I meant, I mean you are not getting along with those relatives in Rongfu?"

"so?"

"All things are reconciled, I think the two families should sit together calmly and explain the misunderstanding." Lin Ruhai persuaded him sincerely, and he looked at Yan Liang several times with pleading eyes.

It is really embarrassing for him as an outsider to get involved in the conflict between the Jia family and the two houses. It seems that it is quite difficult for Jia's mother's son-in-law.

Yan Liang sympathized with Lin Ruhai, "You probably didn't think of this idea, the old lady begged you? Tell you to run errands?"

"Of course I won't avoid it. You guys will have to talk about this matter sooner or later. Why don't you take advantage of this opportunity to clarify."

Yan Liang originally wanted to tell Lin Ruhai that even if it was a talk, it would be useless, and besides, he had already made this matter very clear.But seeing him look embarrassed and very anxious.In order not to make things difficult for Lin Ruhai, Yan Liang simply decided to meet Jiamu and the others for a while to see what they had to say.

In the evening, the three masters gathered together, including Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, and Lin Ruhai who was dragged in by my mother.

"Why ask outsiders to intervene in matters within the clan, tell him to go home quickly." When Yan Liang was chatting with Lin Ruhai in Guangyuan Building today, he heard that Daiyu's health was not very good these two days.His purpose at this moment is naturally to send Lin Ruhai back to accompany his wife and children earlier, it will be difficult for Lin Ruhai to stay here, it is a waste of time, and it is unnecessary.

Jia's mother was so angry that she wanted to refute Yan Liang, but seeing Lin Ruhai couldn't wait to hand over her hands and said that she was going to leave.Mother Jia took a special look at Lin Ruhai, feeling a sense of loss in her heart. She wanted to let Lin Ruhai suppress the battle for a while, but now it seems that he is not willing.So it was not easy to say anything, so he let him go.

I hadn't seen him for just a day, Jia Zheng seemed to be ten years old, his face was much more decadent, and his eye circles were dark, as if he had been mentally tortured for a long time without rest.Jia Mu is stronger than Jia Zhenghui, and more dignified, but she doesn't look very energetic.

After Lin Ruhai left, there were only five of them left in the house, as well as a few confidant maids who were on standby to serve.

The silence struck first, and the first person who couldn't help breaking the silence was Jia Zheng.He slapped the table angrily and glared at Yan Liang, as if he was looking like a hungry tiger jumping on a wolf.

"You made Lin Ruhai go out of his way to invite me here just to let me watch him play this trick? Then there's no need to go on and waste each other's time. In the future, the two governments will go their own way as they are now." Yan Liang Standing up, with a cold face, no face is given to anyone, just want to fight head-to-head, no one is afraid of the other.Now he is the one who can run rampant in power, why bother to keep these unknown pawns jumping around in front of his eyes.

"Second!" Mother Jia immediately stopped Jia Zheng and ordered him to make amends to Yan Liang.Although Jia Zheng was unwilling, how could he disobey his mother, so he had to obey her arrangement.

"I admit that the matter of the daughter-in-law's formation was indeed due to her carelessness and negligence, which offended you. If you really care about it, my wife can kneel down and apologize to you now, but how can you bear to do it so that the entire Wang family will be shocked?" Will it be ruined by your whims?" When mentioning the tragic experience of the Wang family, Jia Mu looked at Mrs. Wang who had fainted from crying several times in front of her. This sudden decree of confiscating the family was a fatal blow to Mrs. Wang. .

Mrs. Wang hurriedly looked up to Mother Jia gratefully, thankfully she still cared about her at the moment.

"Your family is so interesting. You don't look at the hard evidence and don't think about whether the Wang family did something wrong. Instead, you blame everything on me. If you kill people, blame the knife sharpened by others? If you really want to help If the Wang family repays injustice, then use all your wealth to help others, just go forward and retreat with the Wang family. If you really dare to do this, I think it is a bit respectable. But look at your faces now, I don’t want to do anything It’s already out, I only know how to open and close my mouth to accuse others, how embarrassing?”

Yan Liang questioned her again and again, which made Jia's mother feel a little ashamed with embarrassment, and was speechless for a while.

Although Mrs. Wang hated Yan Liang, there was some truth in listening to his words.She looked at Jia Mu Jia Zheng questioningly, hoping that the two of them would refute and make it clear that they really went with Ani to help support her natal family.Unexpectedly, the mother and son were just embarrassed and didn't say anything.Mrs. Wang's heart was suddenly chilled, and her heart ached like a knife.

Jia Mu glanced at Mrs. Wang, and immediately sent someone to help Mrs. Wang leave.

Yan Liang: "If you think you are reasonable, well, I am willing to let you gather your clansmen and judge in front of them. If you think this is unfair and want to make a big fuss, then simply sue the Gyeonggi Yamen. I will I will stay with you to the end! Also, I advise you to trouble Lin Ruhai in the future, asking him back and forth for such a trivial matter, annoying him, I really have nothing to do with you, in the future I see what you will rely on!"

"It's your turn to worry about my son-in-law." Mother Jia tilted her head stubbornly and said angrily.

"Okay, then let's talk about us." Yan Liang paused, raised his head to look at them, and solemnly declared, "From today on, I will be the patriarch for a day, and your Rongfu must strictly abide by the clan rules, and you are not allowed to make any mistakes. People, I don't care if you are old or young, once you violate the family rules, you will be dealt with according to the rules. Besides, no one is allowed to give me the premise of Wang Ziteng's matter in the future. If you have the guts, you can find evidence and sue me in the government. The way to bring me down. But if you can't do it, just obey me honestly and don't be presumptuous!"

"Jia Yanliang, you're going too far. Don't think that just being a second-rank official will allow you to be so rampant that you can cover the sky with just one hand!" Jia Zheng stood up, pointed at the tip of Yan Liang's nose, and warned him not to be too aggressive. Arrogant.

"It's not enough to cover the sky with one hand, but it's more than enough to deal with you. You should know how powerful your wife and brother are. Believe it or not, I'll read it tomorrow and ask you for a better result." Yan Liang said, He took out a memorial from his sleeve and patted it in his hand on purpose.

Both Jia Mu and Jia She were dumbfounded, staring at Yan Liang who was angry.

Jia Zhengben wanted to refute, but after seeing the memorial, all the momentum that was brewing disappeared.He couldn't control his slightly trembling lips, and immediately pursed the corners of his mouth to silence.

"We're all one family, why make a fuss like this, speak well, speak well, don't be angry, don't be angry!" Jia Mu's stiff face twitched, and she forced a smile at Yan Liang, but it was extremely embarrassing.

How could Yan Liang give Jia Mu any face? He squinted at them, and snorted coldly: "Remember, from now on, be a member of the Jia family and obey my orders. Don't blame me for not reminding you about Wang Ziteng. It's just the beginning, not the end."
