Amnesty's daily life
Chapter 148
Nala Shuxian thought that after two lifetimes, she could be regarded as indifferent to life and death. However, when death came to the people around her again, she still couldn't accept it calmly.Especially that grandma Zhen, who was just like a flower, passed away so suddenly, leaving behind the young Rong'er.
To be honest, La Shuxian doesn't sympathize with Brother Zhen, it's just a wife, just find a sequel later, I'm afraid it's completely irrelevant to Brother Zhen.What about Rong'er?Rong'er, who just passed her second birthday last month, has never had a mother since then.
As for the stepmother, Nala Shuxian smiled wryly. She was a stepmother in her previous life. Although she thought she was not bad for Gu Lun and Princess Jing, the daughters of the Empress Yuan, but in terms of sincerity, she might not have the slightest bit of sincerity.This is actually very normal, and it has nothing to do with jealousy, it's just a normal reaction of ordinary people.Even in this life, she asked herself to treat Yingjieer as her own child, but if something really happened as a last resort, she would only choose to keep her own child and give up Yingjieer.
Humans are such selfish creatures.Except, of course, saints.
Because of these four cloud boards, Nala Shuxian completely lost sleepiness, but Jia She who was beside her, after the initial daze, quickly patted her on the back and sighed: "Go to sleep, tomorrow will be fine." Some are busy."
This made Jia Amnesty hit the mark.Since the next day was not a holiday, Jia She left early in the morning, but did not wake up Nala Shuxian who barely fell asleep last night.Because of this, when Nala Shuxian woke up, the sky outside had already brightened, and no one knew until it was almost noon.
"Mommy, why didn't someone call me? It's so late." Nala Shuxian was rather dumbfounded, of course she knew that Nanny Rong and the others had good intentions, but it was too late.
It was strange to say that her pregnancy was completely different from the previous ones, and she had no other reactions. She never even had morning sickness, and her appetite was always good. The only problem was that she was getting more and more lethargic.In the past, at most, she slept until dawn, or took a short nap for a quarter of an hour when she was tired after lunch.But since she became pregnant, she has been sleeping for more than half of the day, and I really don't know if there is a sleepy bug in her stomach.
"What's late? The New Year's ceremony was prepared early, and most of them have already been sent out, that is, a few families in the capital haven't done it yet. Every family has a happy event, and it has been prepared early in the morning. And There is no need to bother with those matters in the mansion, just follow the old routine of previous years, and this year, the second master and second wife are not in the mansion."
Mother Rong was giving Nala Shuxian the clothes warmed by incense, while casually persuading her: "I want this old servant to tell you, master, you are pregnant now, so don't worry about it so much, even if you made a mistake or missed something, you can't worry about it anymore." How can it be?"
"I just asked a question, but it really provoked you." Nala Shuxian said angrily and amusedly, "If only it was in the past, the old ladies on the left and right didn't force me to settle down. But today... oh."
"Master, you are talking about Grandma Zhen in the Dongfu next door?" Seeing that La Shuxian nodded in response, Nanny Rong couldn't help but frowned, and couldn't help but started talking again, "Master, just listen to the old slave." Persuasion. Now that you are pregnant with a child, how can you worry about such things? Another one, you are an elder, and she is a junior, so how can she be your concern? After being ill for so long, maybe the next door Dongfu Already prepared."
Hearing this, Nala Shuxian's heart skipped a beat, she first gathered her clothes, then put on Xinna's soft-soled cotton shoes under the service of Nunnery Rong, and was helped to the dressing table beside her After sitting down, she slowly said: "Have been ill for so long? Why didn't you hear about it at all?"
"I haven't heard of it?" Nurse Rong twisted the handkerchief from the water basin carried by the servant girl, handed it to Nala Shuxian, then reached for the high-quality plum blossom face cream, and replied casually, "Why didn't you hear that?" What do you mean? If she hadn't been ill for so long, why didn't she come to see Brother Rong? That's her only son."
Nala Shuxian let Nanny Rong and others groom and dress her up, and because she is pregnant now, she only smeared a little facial and lip balm on her face, and put a loose bun on her head, thinking Things like this happened in the East Mansion next door. Although there is no reason for the elders to keep filial piety for the younger generation, Nala Shuxian still rejected the ruby noodles that she picked yesterday and changed it to suet jade noodles.
When everything was settled, and there was still half an hour before the dinner was set, La Shuxian ordered to go to Rongqing Hall, no matter what, something like that happened in the East Mansion next door, even if she didn't intend to Going to the East Mansion in person can't be completely silent.
"Call for a soft car!" Rong Nunnies glanced outside, seeing the white snow all over her eyes, she immediately became anxious, "It snowed again yesterday, and it hasn't stopped until this morning. Those lazy people , I don’t know how to sweep away the snow early, and delay my master’s trip for nothing!”
"What are you training them for? I didn't intend to go the way ahead." Nala Shuxian stretched out her hand and patted the back of Nanny Rong's hand. She knew that what Nanny Rong disliked most was the appearance of bad omens, so she decided to Everything is going well, but when something unexpected happens, you can't help being upset.In fact, this is not the unique character of Nanny Rong, but a mentality that most people will have.
It is indeed snowing heavily outside, but there is a shortcut from Rongxi Hall to Rongqing Hall. Pass through the hall at the back, and you will be able to reach the Baosha behind Rongqing Hall in less than half an hour.Of course, even if there is a shortcut, it is inevitable to be covered in wind and snow.Therefore, when she walked out of the house, Nala Shuxian was forced to stuff a hand warmer and put on an extra coat.
Even so, when she arrived at Rongqingtang, Nala Shuxian still felt chilly, and it wasn't until she entered the warm pavilion that she finally warmed up again.
Seeing Nala Shuxian coming, Mother Jia beckoned to her, let her sit on the beauty couch near the smoker, and asked her to bring two extra thick mattresses as cushions, and said with a smile: "Is it cold outside? I'm getting old, and I don't want to go outside when it snows, but sister Ying can't sit still and insists on going out to make some snowman. The result is that Rong'er has to go with her. Fortunately, there is Feng girl here , otherwise I wouldn’t worry about it.”
In fact, there is nothing to worry about.The brothers and sisters went out to play together, there must be someone guarding the front, the nanny must be inseparable, and there are several big maids who are doing things safely.Besides, even if they go to play in the snow, most of them will be in Rongqing Hall, so there is no need to worry too much.
Having said that, Nala Shuxian still followed Jia Mu's words and said a few words to welcome her sister.
"The second girl is getting more and more mischievous, I must talk to her well later."
"What are you talking about her for? Shuxian, you don't know. No one can compare with She'er in terms of being naughty. Before he learned how to walk, he already broke things on purpose to make people feel disgusted. He can walk and run for a while. Jumping, that’s terrible! In summer, the garden is full of scurrying to catch grasshoppers and cicadas. In autumn, he climbs trees to pick fruits and dig out birds’ eggs. In mid-winter, he even broke the ice on the lake, saying Why go fishing! Hmph, if you don’t sign up for Fangjiewa in those three days, you’ll be the one who wrote it!”
Nala Shuxian smiled and said nothing, but she secretly remembered that she wanted to tell Jia Amnesty what Jiamu said when she turned back.In fact, if you think about it carefully, Mother Jia may not love Jia She. I guess Mother Jia prefers those well-behaved and sensible children, and such bear children as Jia She obviously cannot love them.
Just as he was talking, the laughter of children came from outside.After a while, Wang Xifeng led Yingjie and Ronger back to the house.This Wang Xifeng was fine, except for two blushes on her face, there was nothing unusual about it.But Sister Ying's clothes were a little wet, and there were a lot of snowflakes on her hair.As for the youngest, Rong'er, at first glance, she seemed to have fallen into the snow, with snowflakes all over her body.
"Ouch! What's going on here? Hurry up and take Rong'er down and change into clothes! Don't freeze!" Mother Jia called repeatedly, but the maids all looked helpless.
"Old lady!" Rong'er rushed over with her semi-wet shoes, and said with a big smile, looking up at her little face covered in snowflakes, "Rong'er has become a snowman! Second aunt!"
Come on, there's no need to ask what's going on, it's obvious that Sister Ying has completely inherited Jia She's childlike nature.
"Second girl, come here." Nala Shuxian called to Sister Ying, and the latter ran over with a smile on her face, completely unaware of what she had done wrong.
Of course, at this moment, blaming the child is not the most important thing.Nala Shuxian watched the maids hurriedly lead Rong'er down to change clothes, and then she reached out and pointed at the tip of Ying'er's nose and said: "Little girl, you're so nonsense, I'll send you to the nunnery when you turn back Learn the rules!"
"No, no, no!" Sister Ying was frightened immediately, first subconsciously took two steps back, then hurried forward and hugged La Shuxian's leg, begging with a mournful face, "Second girl, be good, Er The girl is very obedient, she will stop messing around in the future, and the second girl will do whatever the wife says. The wife loves it, the wife likes it, and the wife will not send the second girl to the foster mother!"
Nala Shuxian gave Yingjie a sideways look, but didn't speak immediately.
Speaking of it, I don't know whether it's innate or some other reason, but sister Ying is actually quite stupid.Of course, this is not compared with Twelve, a gifted kid who cheats, but just comparing with Sister Yuan and others, it is clear that Sister Ying is really not smart.Aside from other things, when sister Yuan was five years old, not only could she already know how to distinguish colors, but also learned some rules of dealing with people and so on.However, when it came to Yingjie'er's side, she couldn't even speak serious words. Now, she can't say "I", but only acts coquettishly.
"Speak well, or I will send you there today." Nala Shuxian said with a straight face, "You must learn to say 'I', and you can't always be the second girl who is longer and the second girl who is shorter. You have grown up, look at Rong Didn't I call you aunt?"
Sister Ying pursed her lips, with a look of grievance on her face: "Second girl... I don't want to be an aunt, I want to be a sister!"
"Being a big sister has to be like a big sister, otherwise when you have a younger brother and younger sister, you will still act like a little sister. Do you still have to call the little ones older brothers and sisters?"
Seeing that Sister Ying was really wronged, Nala Shuxian patted the seat beside her, asked her to take off her shoes and sit up, put her arms around her, and talked to her patiently and angrily.
"Shuxian, it doesn't matter, which one of us didn't come here like this? When the second girl has younger siblings, she will grow up naturally. Look carefully at Cong'er, he was so noisy when he was young, but now he is older, especially has an older brother. Look. By the way, when will Cong'er come back?" Jia Mu smiled and watched Ying Jie being scolded, then beckoned Wang Xifeng to her, and said, "Brother Feng will go home in a few days. After that, I'll have someone pick you up again."
Wang Xifeng replied crisply: "In the coming year, I still want to see my new siblings."
Nala Shuxian also smiled and said: "That's a good thing, I will point to you to teach the second girl more, don't mention how stupid she is." Looking at Sister Ying again, she turned her face sideways on purpose Go, a tsundere "I'm angry" look.
Smiling and looking at Sister Ying, Nala Shuxian said again: "Cong'er will come back in a few days, right? It's almost the twelfth lunar month. I think you will be able to see Cong'er in the first twelfth lunar month. gone."
"It's still the twelfth lunar month?" Mother Jia murmured dissatisfiedly, and complained, "The children are getting older and have their own small circles, but I don't think they are as cute as they were when they were young. Alas, my old lady should stop being annoying, and just let them go."
This seemingly grievance and complaint made everyone laugh. After Rong'er came over with a change of clothes, the children got into a fight again.A while later, Sister Yuan, who had finished the half-hour class, also came over. Just when the maid asked if there was a meal, Mother Jia asked Sister Yuan to lead the young ones to the room.
"Shuxian, you can stay here. I just happen to have something to say to you."
Nala Shuxian smiled and agreed, knowing that some things cannot be said in front of the children, so she wanted to find an opportunity to discuss it in private.
Sure enough, when lunch was served and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were six or seven percent full, Mother Jia spoke.
"As the elders, we don't need to take care of this kind of thing for the younger generation. Besides, the Ningrong Second Mansion has long been separated. Since they are two families, we should try our best to avoid such things. It just so happens that I am old. When you grow up, you don't have the energy anymore. You are pregnant again, and the son and daughter-in-law of Zheng are not in Beijing at all. I will ask Xier to take a look later. If necessary, I will call a few capable nuns to help , we don’t need to go there.”
"It's not going to pass, but the etiquette that should be fulfilled at that time has to be done one by one. You just follow the old practice of the Bowling Marquis Mansion a few years ago, and send it to the next door East Mansion with a [-]% reduction."
"Oh, it's almost New Year's Eve, why did such a thing happen? Then Zhen'er is also true, she told him a long time ago, a concubine is not a concubine, even if there is no conjugal love He should be more or less respectful. He is kind, he doesn't take his first wife seriously, but he is pitiful to Zhen's daughter-in-law, I remember she is only twenty this year?"
Mother Jia sighed repeatedly. Although she didn't have a deep relationship with Grandma Zhen of Ningguo Mansion, she had met several times. She was a young and weak woman, and she always respected Mother Jia. Very well, the rules and etiquette are not bad at all, and now it is suddenly gone, which is somewhat embarrassing.
Nalashu listened quietly, and waited for Jiamu to speak, then she said, "Isn't it? I still remember the first few years when she was just married, she was a little girl like a flower bone. She looked at the door not long ago. She was pregnant and gave birth to Rong'er smoothly, who would have thought that this person is just like this... well, that's all, I just feel sorry for that child Rong'er."
"Yeah, that kid Rong'er is so pitiful." Mother Jia nodded approvingly, but then frowned uncomfortably, "I still don't know how to explain to Duke Li."
Grandma Zhen of Ningguo Mansion came from the Liu family, which is the descendant of Liu Biao, Duke of Li.Of course, she is not from the lineage of the eldest son of the direct line, but only belongs to the more prominent lineage among the side branches.Ordinarily, she is now a member of the Ningguo Mansion, and she died of a serious illness. There is nothing to explain, but Jia Mu has a dignified face. Nala Shuxian looked carefully and vaguely guessed. What's up.
But I heard Jia Mu sighing: "Oh, if there is a real disturbance in the Liguo Mansion, wouldn't it break the love of the ancestors? So does Zhen'er. The illness is so serious, and he still takes a concubine, isn't this intentional to save face? It's just a concubine, just a plaything, why bother?"
"If this is left to my master, I am afraid that if I buy one today, I will sell it tomorrow." Nala Shuxian said casually, but then secretly paid attention to Jia Mu, and said tentatively, "That concubine... ...I seem to have heard of it, but the one surnamed Tian?"
"That's the one!" Mother Jia didn't doubt him, she just said, "Did you hear what Xi'er said? I must look carefully when I look back, what kind of character is worthy of Zhen'er's nonsense! The Duke's Mansion and our Ning Rong Mansion are old friends, and because of a vicious son, the first wife got seriously ill, so it's time for Jinger to beat him hard."
"Then what should we do now? Leaving aside that Hu Meizi, the left and right are just concubines, just like what you said, old lady, if you manage the other side of the Duke's mansion..."
"Oh, I'm also worried! Zhen'er's daughter-in-law left, Jing'er's daughter-in-law fell ill again, and Pian Jing'er even beat Zhen'er to death. The only thing that can move in the entire Dongfu is now On the other side, Rong’er, his mother is gone, and when the mourning hall is set up later, he will definitely go back to guard it. Poor child, he lost his mother at a young age, and his father is a bad boy. Reliable, who else can I count on in the future?"
Jia Mu always loves children, and Rong'er has a cute appearance. In just three months, she has accepted her heart. Now when she thinks of the mess in the East Mansion next door, Jia Mu's first reaction is I feel sorry for Rong'er.
"Let's take a step and see, after all, our two families have already separated from each other." Nala Shuxian sighed softly.
……
After that, things developed exactly as Jia Mu expected.
In the middle of the afternoon of the same day, Li Guogong's mansion, who got the news, sent someone over.At the beginning, only the elder brother of Grandma Zhen from Ningguo Mansion came, but later it was the parents, brothers and relatives from all walks of life. A total of 30, no. [-] people came, and these were only the masters of the Liu family.Fortunately, Grandma Zhen is not the eldest son of the Duke of Li, and the head of the Liu family who came here after hearing the news is fair.Or to be more precise, the head of the Liu family is completely planning to get along with each other.
After arguing for two or three days, the matter was finally settled, and the mourning hall was decently arranged.
There is one point that Mother Jia guessed wrong. Although Grandma Zhen fell ill earlier, in fact she was not seriously ill from the outside. Even the doctor said that she needs to relax and take a rest. When the weather warms up in spring next year, it may be cured.Because of this, no one expected that Grandma Zhen would leave as soon as she said she would, and the mourning hall and other things were naturally not ready at all.
The other side of Ningguo Mansion prepared a rough plan, but Grandma Zhen's natal brother came over to take a look, and was so angry that he almost smashed the mourning hall.The Ningguo Mansion knew it was wrong, so they hurriedly ordered people to find better coffins, incense candles, etc., but because there was no headed wife to take care of it, it made a mess inside and out.Jia Jing had no choice but to find Jia Mu again.
But Jia Mu took Nala Shuxian to emphasize not to get involved in this matter that day, because Jia Jing had already sent someone to look for her earlier.Although the two prefectures have already been divided into separate prefectures, the fifth service has not yet been released. If the Ningguo Mansion is really in trouble, the Rongguo Mansion should come forward to help out of reason.
But Jia Mu is not happy!
"Jing'er, if you want to treat me as your elder, don't mention this matter anymore. Don't even think about it, how old am I, how can I still manage well? My daughter-in-law is pregnant now, The daughter-in-law of the government is not in the mansion, and you say you need someone to help you, who can help you?" Apart from these superficial reasons, Mother Jia also secretly thinks this is unlucky.
It's almost the Chinese New Year, this stall is going to handle the funeral?If it is a matter of the elders, then I will bear it. After all, if the old man who is over seventy years old is gone, it is a joy and mourning.How old is Grandma Kezhen?Younger and younger, it is not suitable to go to Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Jing begged hard, but before he could get Jia's mother to soften his heart, he came to report outside, and Jia Amnesty returned home.
It's really nothing rare for Jia She to return to the mansion, and because Jia's mother thinks of the 80 taels of silver she gave up every time she sees him, she doesn't want to see that bastard unless it is absolutely necessary.Therefore, Jia Amnesty did not come to Rongqing Hall to pay his respects at all, unless of course Mother Jia called him on her own initiative.
"Let him in quickly!" Of course, it wasn't Jia Amnesty whom Jia Mu took the initiative to summon this time, but it was the first time that Jia Mu missed her bastard son very much.
When Jia Amnesty entered the room, the purpose of the entry was Mother Jia's expression of joy and anticipation, she stopped immediately, and subconsciously scanned the surroundings, and after seeing that there was nothing unusual, she said cautiously: "Old lady, you What's wrong?"
"Xie'er, you respect the lack of manpower in the elder brother's mansion, why don't you take a few days off with Shangfeng, and go to the East Mansion to help?" Jiamu was reluctant to go to Ningguo Mansion with Nala Shuxian, who was pregnant with her child. To be precise, She was reluctant to part with her unborn grandchildren.But Jia Amnesty was different. Mother Jia never cared about him.
"May I go to Dongfu to help?" Jia She was dumbfounded, and when he came back to his senses, he said with a strange expression, "Old lady, you probably forgot? I have long since stopped working in the Imperial Academy. At Yushitai."
If it was the Hanlin Academy, the head of the academy would be Pan Ding, who was the father of La Shuxian's natal sister-in-law. He was not familiar with Jia She, but he had dealt with Jia She anyway, so he had a little friendship.Moreover, the Imperial Academy is really not busy at all, so it is very easy to ask for leave.
"What's wrong with Yushitai? No one is allowed to work anymore?" Mother Jia said angrily, "There is really no manpower at the East Mansion, but our mansion is... so good, this matter I will leave it to you, and you can figure it out yourself."
Needless to say, compared to Twelve's natural ability to cheat his father, Jia Mu's ability to cheat his son is not weak.
Jia She looked at Jia's mother speechlessly, and reminded after a while: "I'm at Yushitai, but my upper peak is...His Royal Highness Prince Lian." Asking for leave with Prince Lian, this is killing me. !
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
After a while, Jia Jing sighed helplessly: "Forget it, I'll think of another way. After all, this matter is my family's fault, and the other party is Li Guogong's mansion. At most, I will turn around and wait for Zhen'er to be fine. I will be more ruthless." Beat him hard!!"
In the end, Jia Jing no longer sighed, but cursed with gritted teeth.But it's a pity that there is no one in Rongguo Mansion who sympathizes with Brother Zhen, besides, isn't it natural for me to beat my son?
"By the way, Brother Jing." Seeing that Jia Jing was about to leave, Jia Amnesty called him hastily, "It just so happens that you are here, so I won't have to go to the East Mansion to look for you again. That's it, these two days Today, Yushitai received several secret letters, all of which impeached Brother Zhen. Because Brother Zhen was only reviewed by the seventh-rank Imperial Academy, these letters would not be submitted to the royal case of the Holy Majesty. But this matter Son...what do you think should be done?"
The matter of impeachment is actually divided into several categories.
Like some people who were originally high-ranking and powerful people signed the real-name impeachment of the same high-ranking and powerful people, those people will naturally be submitted to the court case of Emperor Changqing immediately.However, most of the impeachments are anonymous, and the person impeached may not be a high-ranking official.Therefore, in this case, it is necessary for Yushitai to come forward.First, sort out the letters of impeachment, sort out the criminal evidence inside and verify them one by one, and then choose whether to report to Emperor Changqing, or send a letter to the Ministry of Officials, or even the Ministry of Punishment according to the severity of the charges.
Brother Zhen's matter, whether it is serious or not, is not serious.Jia Amnesty didn't intend to kill Brother Zhen, so after thinking about it, he chose to call ahead.
"Actually, there are three crimes. First, having an affair with a girl who is filial to the father. Second, insisting on taking a pregnant second wife as a concubine when the first wife was seriously ill. Third, when the first wife passed away. When it's less than seven or seven, they still sing and sing every night."
The expression on Jia She's face was quite complicated, rather than contempt, it would be more appropriate to say helplessness, he really did not expect that Brother Zhen would be so stupid.
In fact, none of these three charges is serious, but no matter which one they are, they are enough to deprive Brother Zhen of his fame and official position.As for the final result, it depends on the decision of the Ningguo Mansion.
Looking at Jia Jing again, his face was already ashen.
"Brother Jing, don't rush to teach Brother Zhen a lesson. You can teach your son at any time. You should give him an attitude quickly. Not to mention, that filial woman who is pregnant... Are you still going to protect her? "Jia Amnesty asked again.
"Don't worry, Xi'er, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!" At this moment, Jia Jing's face was not only livid, but murderous.
"You don't need to explain it to me. Tell me the truth. If you move quickly, this matter can be suppressed. After all, Brother Zhen is such a big official, and no one wants to torment him. But if you let him do whatever he wants, then Yushitai is not the back garden of our two houses, and when the time comes, we will really care about it, aside from other things, this official and fame will definitely be lost."
"Okay, I'll go back right now! I... I thank you, Xi'er, for your reminder."
Jia Jing came in a hurry and left in a hurry. The difference was that before he came he had a troubled look on his face, but when he left he was full of murderous intent.
Watching Jia Jing leave, Jia Amnesty began to think about a serious question: "By the way, Brother Jing wouldn't really beat Brother Zhen to death?"
"No." Mother Jia said coldly, "Don't meddle in the matter over there. It's about Duke Li's mansion. Although Liu's family didn't pursue it all the way, the two families are tearing apart because of this kind of thing. It's not worth it. By the way, Sheil, what are you doing here?"
Hearing what Jia Mu said, Jia Amnesty didn't bother to take care of the affairs of Ningguo Mansion.In fact, he didn't want to get involved at first, mainly because he was at Yushitai. Although Prince Lian often played around in the capital under various names, the sixth-rank servant Yushi on him was not Just kidding.To put it bluntly, Ningrong and Rongfu belonged to the same clan after all, if things broke out in the future, he didn't go to remind them, instead he would end up in trouble.
However, since he had already been reminded, what happened in the future has nothing to do with him.
At that moment, Jia Amnesty only said: "It's not because of Sister Min's matter. The other side of the Jiangnan is in chaos again, and the crown prince has already gone in, and I listen to His Highness Lian Wang, I'm afraid the crown prince will not come out again this time." The matter of restoring the throne is even more delusional. There are many people on the side of the prince on the south side of the river. Not to mention the chaos, they even asked the emperor to restore the prince again. Hmph, the emperor has sent off a lot of people. There is a group of people who are not afraid of death following behind to make trouble!"
In fact, this is also the reason why Jia She can easily suppress Brother Zhen's affairs.Of course, with Jia Amnesty's ability, it can last ten days and a half months at most.But if something happened to Jiangnan, he would not be able to hold back for half a day with his rank.
"But what does this matter have to do with my Min'er?" Because of the seriousness of Jia She's words, Jia's mother panicked, "My Min'er is just a woman in the back house, how can she know anything about court affairs?" ?”
"She doesn't understand, brother-in-law Lin does!"
Ever since that day, when Nala Shuxian reminded Jia Amnesty to transfer Lin Hai's official position as soon as possible, he has been thinking of ways.Fortunately, Jia Min was the only person Jia She wanted to protect from the very beginning. To him, Lin Hai's official career was nothing to worry about!If it can keep Jia Min safe and healthy, so what if Lin Hai loses his official position?Jia She didn't care at all.
Of course, Lin Hai Haolai is also a Second Rank, so it would be a pity if he lost it.Therefore, Jia Amnesty was only trying to think of a way out, and it would be best to let Lin Hai drop half a rank and be demoted back to Beijing.This can not only keep Jia Min, but also protect Lin Hai's official position as much as possible.
He never expected that things would go so smoothly, even Jia She himself did not expect that the gang of princelings in Jiangnan would help him a lot.
The chaos in the south of the Yangtze River has already spread to the capital, but the prince's henchmen on the other side of the capital have already been hacked to pieces by Emperor Changqing.The remaining ones were either cut off from their official positions or ordered to contemplate their mistakes behind closed doors, and they will not be able to stir up any troubles in a short period of time.But on the other side of the south of the Yangtze River, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and many things are lagging behind. The south of the Yangtze River is rich and prosperous, and the officialdom is in chaos, which involves a lot.Now that the end of the new year is approaching, the official bank from Jiangnan was transported to the capital, but it turned out that there was not even half of what it was in previous years.
Emperor Changqing was furious, and ordered Prince Lian to temporarily put aside the task of recovering the owed money, and rushed to the south of the Yangtze River ten days later to stabilize the chaos.
Prince Lian...
Thinking of Prince Lian's temper, Jia Amnesty couldn't help shedding tears of bitterness to those in the Jiangnan official circles: "Old lady, do you know what kind of temperament His Highness Lian Wang is? Going to the south of the Yangtze River, it is impossible for people not to die. Even if he manages to save his life, he will put a record on Xiao Hei's account later, and when he returns to the capital, he will file a complaint in front of the Holy One... Sigh, brother-in-law Lin is also a supporter of the prince."
Normal people support the prince, because the prince is orthodox.Not all princelings dare to make trouble. For people like Lin Hai, he only supports the prince in his heart, and on the surface he still works for Emperor Changqing.However, it is conceivable that when Prince Lian goes to Jiangnan, Lin Hai will definitely not help.
I'm just so sad.
"Let me tell you the truth, when I was still at Yushitai today, my second brother-in-law specifically went to find me, and told me to find a way to follow Prince Lian to the south of the Yangtze River, and protect as many as possible. In addition, I also plan to take this opportunity to transfer Brother-in-law Lin back to the capital."
Mother Jia's face was pale, and after Jia Amnesty had finished speaking, she said in a trembling voice, "Remember, as soon as we arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, we sent a letter to let Min'er come back. Let's not get married. Isn't it okay if we don't get married? I would rather her Be an old girl, and don't want her to have any accidents. My Min'er, it's not good to be small, but nothing will happen to her!"
"Min'er..." Jia Amnesty hesitated for a moment, thinking that if everything goes well, Jia Min might go to Beijing next year, and even if he wanted to hide it, he couldn't hide it. It's not good, it seems that the old lady of the Lin family thinks that she has never given birth, so she is a little harsh on her."
To be honest, La Shuxian doesn't sympathize with Brother Zhen, it's just a wife, just find a sequel later, I'm afraid it's completely irrelevant to Brother Zhen.What about Rong'er?Rong'er, who just passed her second birthday last month, has never had a mother since then.
As for the stepmother, Nala Shuxian smiled wryly. She was a stepmother in her previous life. Although she thought she was not bad for Gu Lun and Princess Jing, the daughters of the Empress Yuan, but in terms of sincerity, she might not have the slightest bit of sincerity.This is actually very normal, and it has nothing to do with jealousy, it's just a normal reaction of ordinary people.Even in this life, she asked herself to treat Yingjieer as her own child, but if something really happened as a last resort, she would only choose to keep her own child and give up Yingjieer.
Humans are such selfish creatures.Except, of course, saints.
Because of these four cloud boards, Nala Shuxian completely lost sleepiness, but Jia She who was beside her, after the initial daze, quickly patted her on the back and sighed: "Go to sleep, tomorrow will be fine." Some are busy."
This made Jia Amnesty hit the mark.Since the next day was not a holiday, Jia She left early in the morning, but did not wake up Nala Shuxian who barely fell asleep last night.Because of this, when Nala Shuxian woke up, the sky outside had already brightened, and no one knew until it was almost noon.
"Mommy, why didn't someone call me? It's so late." Nala Shuxian was rather dumbfounded, of course she knew that Nanny Rong and the others had good intentions, but it was too late.
It was strange to say that her pregnancy was completely different from the previous ones, and she had no other reactions. She never even had morning sickness, and her appetite was always good. The only problem was that she was getting more and more lethargic.In the past, at most, she slept until dawn, or took a short nap for a quarter of an hour when she was tired after lunch.But since she became pregnant, she has been sleeping for more than half of the day, and I really don't know if there is a sleepy bug in her stomach.
"What's late? The New Year's ceremony was prepared early, and most of them have already been sent out, that is, a few families in the capital haven't done it yet. Every family has a happy event, and it has been prepared early in the morning. And There is no need to bother with those matters in the mansion, just follow the old routine of previous years, and this year, the second master and second wife are not in the mansion."
Mother Rong was giving Nala Shuxian the clothes warmed by incense, while casually persuading her: "I want this old servant to tell you, master, you are pregnant now, so don't worry about it so much, even if you made a mistake or missed something, you can't worry about it anymore." How can it be?"
"I just asked a question, but it really provoked you." Nala Shuxian said angrily and amusedly, "If only it was in the past, the old ladies on the left and right didn't force me to settle down. But today... oh."
"Master, you are talking about Grandma Zhen in the Dongfu next door?" Seeing that La Shuxian nodded in response, Nanny Rong couldn't help but frowned, and couldn't help but started talking again, "Master, just listen to the old slave." Persuasion. Now that you are pregnant with a child, how can you worry about such things? Another one, you are an elder, and she is a junior, so how can she be your concern? After being ill for so long, maybe the next door Dongfu Already prepared."
Hearing this, Nala Shuxian's heart skipped a beat, she first gathered her clothes, then put on Xinna's soft-soled cotton shoes under the service of Nunnery Rong, and was helped to the dressing table beside her After sitting down, she slowly said: "Have been ill for so long? Why didn't you hear about it at all?"
"I haven't heard of it?" Nurse Rong twisted the handkerchief from the water basin carried by the servant girl, handed it to Nala Shuxian, then reached for the high-quality plum blossom face cream, and replied casually, "Why didn't you hear that?" What do you mean? If she hadn't been ill for so long, why didn't she come to see Brother Rong? That's her only son."
Nala Shuxian let Nanny Rong and others groom and dress her up, and because she is pregnant now, she only smeared a little facial and lip balm on her face, and put a loose bun on her head, thinking Things like this happened in the East Mansion next door. Although there is no reason for the elders to keep filial piety for the younger generation, Nala Shuxian still rejected the ruby noodles that she picked yesterday and changed it to suet jade noodles.
When everything was settled, and there was still half an hour before the dinner was set, La Shuxian ordered to go to Rongqing Hall, no matter what, something like that happened in the East Mansion next door, even if she didn't intend to Going to the East Mansion in person can't be completely silent.
"Call for a soft car!" Rong Nunnies glanced outside, seeing the white snow all over her eyes, she immediately became anxious, "It snowed again yesterday, and it hasn't stopped until this morning. Those lazy people , I don’t know how to sweep away the snow early, and delay my master’s trip for nothing!”
"What are you training them for? I didn't intend to go the way ahead." Nala Shuxian stretched out her hand and patted the back of Nanny Rong's hand. She knew that what Nanny Rong disliked most was the appearance of bad omens, so she decided to Everything is going well, but when something unexpected happens, you can't help being upset.In fact, this is not the unique character of Nanny Rong, but a mentality that most people will have.
It is indeed snowing heavily outside, but there is a shortcut from Rongxi Hall to Rongqing Hall. Pass through the hall at the back, and you will be able to reach the Baosha behind Rongqing Hall in less than half an hour.Of course, even if there is a shortcut, it is inevitable to be covered in wind and snow.Therefore, when she walked out of the house, Nala Shuxian was forced to stuff a hand warmer and put on an extra coat.
Even so, when she arrived at Rongqingtang, Nala Shuxian still felt chilly, and it wasn't until she entered the warm pavilion that she finally warmed up again.
Seeing Nala Shuxian coming, Mother Jia beckoned to her, let her sit on the beauty couch near the smoker, and asked her to bring two extra thick mattresses as cushions, and said with a smile: "Is it cold outside? I'm getting old, and I don't want to go outside when it snows, but sister Ying can't sit still and insists on going out to make some snowman. The result is that Rong'er has to go with her. Fortunately, there is Feng girl here , otherwise I wouldn’t worry about it.”
In fact, there is nothing to worry about.The brothers and sisters went out to play together, there must be someone guarding the front, the nanny must be inseparable, and there are several big maids who are doing things safely.Besides, even if they go to play in the snow, most of them will be in Rongqing Hall, so there is no need to worry too much.
Having said that, Nala Shuxian still followed Jia Mu's words and said a few words to welcome her sister.
"The second girl is getting more and more mischievous, I must talk to her well later."
"What are you talking about her for? Shuxian, you don't know. No one can compare with She'er in terms of being naughty. Before he learned how to walk, he already broke things on purpose to make people feel disgusted. He can walk and run for a while. Jumping, that’s terrible! In summer, the garden is full of scurrying to catch grasshoppers and cicadas. In autumn, he climbs trees to pick fruits and dig out birds’ eggs. In mid-winter, he even broke the ice on the lake, saying Why go fishing! Hmph, if you don’t sign up for Fangjiewa in those three days, you’ll be the one who wrote it!”
Nala Shuxian smiled and said nothing, but she secretly remembered that she wanted to tell Jia Amnesty what Jiamu said when she turned back.In fact, if you think about it carefully, Mother Jia may not love Jia She. I guess Mother Jia prefers those well-behaved and sensible children, and such bear children as Jia She obviously cannot love them.
Just as he was talking, the laughter of children came from outside.After a while, Wang Xifeng led Yingjie and Ronger back to the house.This Wang Xifeng was fine, except for two blushes on her face, there was nothing unusual about it.But Sister Ying's clothes were a little wet, and there were a lot of snowflakes on her hair.As for the youngest, Rong'er, at first glance, she seemed to have fallen into the snow, with snowflakes all over her body.
"Ouch! What's going on here? Hurry up and take Rong'er down and change into clothes! Don't freeze!" Mother Jia called repeatedly, but the maids all looked helpless.
"Old lady!" Rong'er rushed over with her semi-wet shoes, and said with a big smile, looking up at her little face covered in snowflakes, "Rong'er has become a snowman! Second aunt!"
Come on, there's no need to ask what's going on, it's obvious that Sister Ying has completely inherited Jia She's childlike nature.
"Second girl, come here." Nala Shuxian called to Sister Ying, and the latter ran over with a smile on her face, completely unaware of what she had done wrong.
Of course, at this moment, blaming the child is not the most important thing.Nala Shuxian watched the maids hurriedly lead Rong'er down to change clothes, and then she reached out and pointed at the tip of Ying'er's nose and said: "Little girl, you're so nonsense, I'll send you to the nunnery when you turn back Learn the rules!"
"No, no, no!" Sister Ying was frightened immediately, first subconsciously took two steps back, then hurried forward and hugged La Shuxian's leg, begging with a mournful face, "Second girl, be good, Er The girl is very obedient, she will stop messing around in the future, and the second girl will do whatever the wife says. The wife loves it, the wife likes it, and the wife will not send the second girl to the foster mother!"
Nala Shuxian gave Yingjie a sideways look, but didn't speak immediately.
Speaking of it, I don't know whether it's innate or some other reason, but sister Ying is actually quite stupid.Of course, this is not compared with Twelve, a gifted kid who cheats, but just comparing with Sister Yuan and others, it is clear that Sister Ying is really not smart.Aside from other things, when sister Yuan was five years old, not only could she already know how to distinguish colors, but also learned some rules of dealing with people and so on.However, when it came to Yingjie'er's side, she couldn't even speak serious words. Now, she can't say "I", but only acts coquettishly.
"Speak well, or I will send you there today." Nala Shuxian said with a straight face, "You must learn to say 'I', and you can't always be the second girl who is longer and the second girl who is shorter. You have grown up, look at Rong Didn't I call you aunt?"
Sister Ying pursed her lips, with a look of grievance on her face: "Second girl... I don't want to be an aunt, I want to be a sister!"
"Being a big sister has to be like a big sister, otherwise when you have a younger brother and younger sister, you will still act like a little sister. Do you still have to call the little ones older brothers and sisters?"
Seeing that Sister Ying was really wronged, Nala Shuxian patted the seat beside her, asked her to take off her shoes and sit up, put her arms around her, and talked to her patiently and angrily.
"Shuxian, it doesn't matter, which one of us didn't come here like this? When the second girl has younger siblings, she will grow up naturally. Look carefully at Cong'er, he was so noisy when he was young, but now he is older, especially has an older brother. Look. By the way, when will Cong'er come back?" Jia Mu smiled and watched Ying Jie being scolded, then beckoned Wang Xifeng to her, and said, "Brother Feng will go home in a few days. After that, I'll have someone pick you up again."
Wang Xifeng replied crisply: "In the coming year, I still want to see my new siblings."
Nala Shuxian also smiled and said: "That's a good thing, I will point to you to teach the second girl more, don't mention how stupid she is." Looking at Sister Ying again, she turned her face sideways on purpose Go, a tsundere "I'm angry" look.
Smiling and looking at Sister Ying, Nala Shuxian said again: "Cong'er will come back in a few days, right? It's almost the twelfth lunar month. I think you will be able to see Cong'er in the first twelfth lunar month. gone."
"It's still the twelfth lunar month?" Mother Jia murmured dissatisfiedly, and complained, "The children are getting older and have their own small circles, but I don't think they are as cute as they were when they were young. Alas, my old lady should stop being annoying, and just let them go."
This seemingly grievance and complaint made everyone laugh. After Rong'er came over with a change of clothes, the children got into a fight again.A while later, Sister Yuan, who had finished the half-hour class, also came over. Just when the maid asked if there was a meal, Mother Jia asked Sister Yuan to lead the young ones to the room.
"Shuxian, you can stay here. I just happen to have something to say to you."
Nala Shuxian smiled and agreed, knowing that some things cannot be said in front of the children, so she wanted to find an opportunity to discuss it in private.
Sure enough, when lunch was served and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were six or seven percent full, Mother Jia spoke.
"As the elders, we don't need to take care of this kind of thing for the younger generation. Besides, the Ningrong Second Mansion has long been separated. Since they are two families, we should try our best to avoid such things. It just so happens that I am old. When you grow up, you don't have the energy anymore. You are pregnant again, and the son and daughter-in-law of Zheng are not in Beijing at all. I will ask Xier to take a look later. If necessary, I will call a few capable nuns to help , we don’t need to go there.”
"It's not going to pass, but the etiquette that should be fulfilled at that time has to be done one by one. You just follow the old practice of the Bowling Marquis Mansion a few years ago, and send it to the next door East Mansion with a [-]% reduction."
"Oh, it's almost New Year's Eve, why did such a thing happen? Then Zhen'er is also true, she told him a long time ago, a concubine is not a concubine, even if there is no conjugal love He should be more or less respectful. He is kind, he doesn't take his first wife seriously, but he is pitiful to Zhen's daughter-in-law, I remember she is only twenty this year?"
Mother Jia sighed repeatedly. Although she didn't have a deep relationship with Grandma Zhen of Ningguo Mansion, she had met several times. She was a young and weak woman, and she always respected Mother Jia. Very well, the rules and etiquette are not bad at all, and now it is suddenly gone, which is somewhat embarrassing.
Nalashu listened quietly, and waited for Jiamu to speak, then she said, "Isn't it? I still remember the first few years when she was just married, she was a little girl like a flower bone. She looked at the door not long ago. She was pregnant and gave birth to Rong'er smoothly, who would have thought that this person is just like this... well, that's all, I just feel sorry for that child Rong'er."
"Yeah, that kid Rong'er is so pitiful." Mother Jia nodded approvingly, but then frowned uncomfortably, "I still don't know how to explain to Duke Li."
Grandma Zhen of Ningguo Mansion came from the Liu family, which is the descendant of Liu Biao, Duke of Li.Of course, she is not from the lineage of the eldest son of the direct line, but only belongs to the more prominent lineage among the side branches.Ordinarily, she is now a member of the Ningguo Mansion, and she died of a serious illness. There is nothing to explain, but Jia Mu has a dignified face. Nala Shuxian looked carefully and vaguely guessed. What's up.
But I heard Jia Mu sighing: "Oh, if there is a real disturbance in the Liguo Mansion, wouldn't it break the love of the ancestors? So does Zhen'er. The illness is so serious, and he still takes a concubine, isn't this intentional to save face? It's just a concubine, just a plaything, why bother?"
"If this is left to my master, I am afraid that if I buy one today, I will sell it tomorrow." Nala Shuxian said casually, but then secretly paid attention to Jia Mu, and said tentatively, "That concubine... ...I seem to have heard of it, but the one surnamed Tian?"
"That's the one!" Mother Jia didn't doubt him, she just said, "Did you hear what Xi'er said? I must look carefully when I look back, what kind of character is worthy of Zhen'er's nonsense! The Duke's Mansion and our Ning Rong Mansion are old friends, and because of a vicious son, the first wife got seriously ill, so it's time for Jinger to beat him hard."
"Then what should we do now? Leaving aside that Hu Meizi, the left and right are just concubines, just like what you said, old lady, if you manage the other side of the Duke's mansion..."
"Oh, I'm also worried! Zhen'er's daughter-in-law left, Jing'er's daughter-in-law fell ill again, and Pian Jing'er even beat Zhen'er to death. The only thing that can move in the entire Dongfu is now On the other side, Rong’er, his mother is gone, and when the mourning hall is set up later, he will definitely go back to guard it. Poor child, he lost his mother at a young age, and his father is a bad boy. Reliable, who else can I count on in the future?"
Jia Mu always loves children, and Rong'er has a cute appearance. In just three months, she has accepted her heart. Now when she thinks of the mess in the East Mansion next door, Jia Mu's first reaction is I feel sorry for Rong'er.
"Let's take a step and see, after all, our two families have already separated from each other." Nala Shuxian sighed softly.
……
After that, things developed exactly as Jia Mu expected.
In the middle of the afternoon of the same day, Li Guogong's mansion, who got the news, sent someone over.At the beginning, only the elder brother of Grandma Zhen from Ningguo Mansion came, but later it was the parents, brothers and relatives from all walks of life. A total of 30, no. [-] people came, and these were only the masters of the Liu family.Fortunately, Grandma Zhen is not the eldest son of the Duke of Li, and the head of the Liu family who came here after hearing the news is fair.Or to be more precise, the head of the Liu family is completely planning to get along with each other.
After arguing for two or three days, the matter was finally settled, and the mourning hall was decently arranged.
There is one point that Mother Jia guessed wrong. Although Grandma Zhen fell ill earlier, in fact she was not seriously ill from the outside. Even the doctor said that she needs to relax and take a rest. When the weather warms up in spring next year, it may be cured.Because of this, no one expected that Grandma Zhen would leave as soon as she said she would, and the mourning hall and other things were naturally not ready at all.
The other side of Ningguo Mansion prepared a rough plan, but Grandma Zhen's natal brother came over to take a look, and was so angry that he almost smashed the mourning hall.The Ningguo Mansion knew it was wrong, so they hurriedly ordered people to find better coffins, incense candles, etc., but because there was no headed wife to take care of it, it made a mess inside and out.Jia Jing had no choice but to find Jia Mu again.
But Jia Mu took Nala Shuxian to emphasize not to get involved in this matter that day, because Jia Jing had already sent someone to look for her earlier.Although the two prefectures have already been divided into separate prefectures, the fifth service has not yet been released. If the Ningguo Mansion is really in trouble, the Rongguo Mansion should come forward to help out of reason.
But Jia Mu is not happy!
"Jing'er, if you want to treat me as your elder, don't mention this matter anymore. Don't even think about it, how old am I, how can I still manage well? My daughter-in-law is pregnant now, The daughter-in-law of the government is not in the mansion, and you say you need someone to help you, who can help you?" Apart from these superficial reasons, Mother Jia also secretly thinks this is unlucky.
It's almost the Chinese New Year, this stall is going to handle the funeral?If it is a matter of the elders, then I will bear it. After all, if the old man who is over seventy years old is gone, it is a joy and mourning.How old is Grandma Kezhen?Younger and younger, it is not suitable to go to Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Jing begged hard, but before he could get Jia's mother to soften his heart, he came to report outside, and Jia Amnesty returned home.
It's really nothing rare for Jia She to return to the mansion, and because Jia's mother thinks of the 80 taels of silver she gave up every time she sees him, she doesn't want to see that bastard unless it is absolutely necessary.Therefore, Jia Amnesty did not come to Rongqing Hall to pay his respects at all, unless of course Mother Jia called him on her own initiative.
"Let him in quickly!" Of course, it wasn't Jia Amnesty whom Jia Mu took the initiative to summon this time, but it was the first time that Jia Mu missed her bastard son very much.
When Jia Amnesty entered the room, the purpose of the entry was Mother Jia's expression of joy and anticipation, she stopped immediately, and subconsciously scanned the surroundings, and after seeing that there was nothing unusual, she said cautiously: "Old lady, you What's wrong?"
"Xie'er, you respect the lack of manpower in the elder brother's mansion, why don't you take a few days off with Shangfeng, and go to the East Mansion to help?" Jiamu was reluctant to go to Ningguo Mansion with Nala Shuxian, who was pregnant with her child. To be precise, She was reluctant to part with her unborn grandchildren.But Jia Amnesty was different. Mother Jia never cared about him.
"May I go to Dongfu to help?" Jia She was dumbfounded, and when he came back to his senses, he said with a strange expression, "Old lady, you probably forgot? I have long since stopped working in the Imperial Academy. At Yushitai."
If it was the Hanlin Academy, the head of the academy would be Pan Ding, who was the father of La Shuxian's natal sister-in-law. He was not familiar with Jia She, but he had dealt with Jia She anyway, so he had a little friendship.Moreover, the Imperial Academy is really not busy at all, so it is very easy to ask for leave.
"What's wrong with Yushitai? No one is allowed to work anymore?" Mother Jia said angrily, "There is really no manpower at the East Mansion, but our mansion is... so good, this matter I will leave it to you, and you can figure it out yourself."
Needless to say, compared to Twelve's natural ability to cheat his father, Jia Mu's ability to cheat his son is not weak.
Jia She looked at Jia's mother speechlessly, and reminded after a while: "I'm at Yushitai, but my upper peak is...His Royal Highness Prince Lian." Asking for leave with Prince Lian, this is killing me. !
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
After a while, Jia Jing sighed helplessly: "Forget it, I'll think of another way. After all, this matter is my family's fault, and the other party is Li Guogong's mansion. At most, I will turn around and wait for Zhen'er to be fine. I will be more ruthless." Beat him hard!!"
In the end, Jia Jing no longer sighed, but cursed with gritted teeth.But it's a pity that there is no one in Rongguo Mansion who sympathizes with Brother Zhen, besides, isn't it natural for me to beat my son?
"By the way, Brother Jing." Seeing that Jia Jing was about to leave, Jia Amnesty called him hastily, "It just so happens that you are here, so I won't have to go to the East Mansion to look for you again. That's it, these two days Today, Yushitai received several secret letters, all of which impeached Brother Zhen. Because Brother Zhen was only reviewed by the seventh-rank Imperial Academy, these letters would not be submitted to the royal case of the Holy Majesty. But this matter Son...what do you think should be done?"
The matter of impeachment is actually divided into several categories.
Like some people who were originally high-ranking and powerful people signed the real-name impeachment of the same high-ranking and powerful people, those people will naturally be submitted to the court case of Emperor Changqing immediately.However, most of the impeachments are anonymous, and the person impeached may not be a high-ranking official.Therefore, in this case, it is necessary for Yushitai to come forward.First, sort out the letters of impeachment, sort out the criminal evidence inside and verify them one by one, and then choose whether to report to Emperor Changqing, or send a letter to the Ministry of Officials, or even the Ministry of Punishment according to the severity of the charges.
Brother Zhen's matter, whether it is serious or not, is not serious.Jia Amnesty didn't intend to kill Brother Zhen, so after thinking about it, he chose to call ahead.
"Actually, there are three crimes. First, having an affair with a girl who is filial to the father. Second, insisting on taking a pregnant second wife as a concubine when the first wife was seriously ill. Third, when the first wife passed away. When it's less than seven or seven, they still sing and sing every night."
The expression on Jia She's face was quite complicated, rather than contempt, it would be more appropriate to say helplessness, he really did not expect that Brother Zhen would be so stupid.
In fact, none of these three charges is serious, but no matter which one they are, they are enough to deprive Brother Zhen of his fame and official position.As for the final result, it depends on the decision of the Ningguo Mansion.
Looking at Jia Jing again, his face was already ashen.
"Brother Jing, don't rush to teach Brother Zhen a lesson. You can teach your son at any time. You should give him an attitude quickly. Not to mention, that filial woman who is pregnant... Are you still going to protect her? "Jia Amnesty asked again.
"Don't worry, Xi'er, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!" At this moment, Jia Jing's face was not only livid, but murderous.
"You don't need to explain it to me. Tell me the truth. If you move quickly, this matter can be suppressed. After all, Brother Zhen is such a big official, and no one wants to torment him. But if you let him do whatever he wants, then Yushitai is not the back garden of our two houses, and when the time comes, we will really care about it, aside from other things, this official and fame will definitely be lost."
"Okay, I'll go back right now! I... I thank you, Xi'er, for your reminder."
Jia Jing came in a hurry and left in a hurry. The difference was that before he came he had a troubled look on his face, but when he left he was full of murderous intent.
Watching Jia Jing leave, Jia Amnesty began to think about a serious question: "By the way, Brother Jing wouldn't really beat Brother Zhen to death?"
"No." Mother Jia said coldly, "Don't meddle in the matter over there. It's about Duke Li's mansion. Although Liu's family didn't pursue it all the way, the two families are tearing apart because of this kind of thing. It's not worth it. By the way, Sheil, what are you doing here?"
Hearing what Jia Mu said, Jia Amnesty didn't bother to take care of the affairs of Ningguo Mansion.In fact, he didn't want to get involved at first, mainly because he was at Yushitai. Although Prince Lian often played around in the capital under various names, the sixth-rank servant Yushi on him was not Just kidding.To put it bluntly, Ningrong and Rongfu belonged to the same clan after all, if things broke out in the future, he didn't go to remind them, instead he would end up in trouble.
However, since he had already been reminded, what happened in the future has nothing to do with him.
At that moment, Jia Amnesty only said: "It's not because of Sister Min's matter. The other side of the Jiangnan is in chaos again, and the crown prince has already gone in, and I listen to His Highness Lian Wang, I'm afraid the crown prince will not come out again this time." The matter of restoring the throne is even more delusional. There are many people on the side of the prince on the south side of the river. Not to mention the chaos, they even asked the emperor to restore the prince again. Hmph, the emperor has sent off a lot of people. There is a group of people who are not afraid of death following behind to make trouble!"
In fact, this is also the reason why Jia She can easily suppress Brother Zhen's affairs.Of course, with Jia Amnesty's ability, it can last ten days and a half months at most.But if something happened to Jiangnan, he would not be able to hold back for half a day with his rank.
"But what does this matter have to do with my Min'er?" Because of the seriousness of Jia She's words, Jia's mother panicked, "My Min'er is just a woman in the back house, how can she know anything about court affairs?" ?”
"She doesn't understand, brother-in-law Lin does!"
Ever since that day, when Nala Shuxian reminded Jia Amnesty to transfer Lin Hai's official position as soon as possible, he has been thinking of ways.Fortunately, Jia Min was the only person Jia She wanted to protect from the very beginning. To him, Lin Hai's official career was nothing to worry about!If it can keep Jia Min safe and healthy, so what if Lin Hai loses his official position?Jia She didn't care at all.
Of course, Lin Hai Haolai is also a Second Rank, so it would be a pity if he lost it.Therefore, Jia Amnesty was only trying to think of a way out, and it would be best to let Lin Hai drop half a rank and be demoted back to Beijing.This can not only keep Jia Min, but also protect Lin Hai's official position as much as possible.
He never expected that things would go so smoothly, even Jia She himself did not expect that the gang of princelings in Jiangnan would help him a lot.
The chaos in the south of the Yangtze River has already spread to the capital, but the prince's henchmen on the other side of the capital have already been hacked to pieces by Emperor Changqing.The remaining ones were either cut off from their official positions or ordered to contemplate their mistakes behind closed doors, and they will not be able to stir up any troubles in a short period of time.But on the other side of the south of the Yangtze River, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and many things are lagging behind. The south of the Yangtze River is rich and prosperous, and the officialdom is in chaos, which involves a lot.Now that the end of the new year is approaching, the official bank from Jiangnan was transported to the capital, but it turned out that there was not even half of what it was in previous years.
Emperor Changqing was furious, and ordered Prince Lian to temporarily put aside the task of recovering the owed money, and rushed to the south of the Yangtze River ten days later to stabilize the chaos.
Prince Lian...
Thinking of Prince Lian's temper, Jia Amnesty couldn't help shedding tears of bitterness to those in the Jiangnan official circles: "Old lady, do you know what kind of temperament His Highness Lian Wang is? Going to the south of the Yangtze River, it is impossible for people not to die. Even if he manages to save his life, he will put a record on Xiao Hei's account later, and when he returns to the capital, he will file a complaint in front of the Holy One... Sigh, brother-in-law Lin is also a supporter of the prince."
Normal people support the prince, because the prince is orthodox.Not all princelings dare to make trouble. For people like Lin Hai, he only supports the prince in his heart, and on the surface he still works for Emperor Changqing.However, it is conceivable that when Prince Lian goes to Jiangnan, Lin Hai will definitely not help.
I'm just so sad.
"Let me tell you the truth, when I was still at Yushitai today, my second brother-in-law specifically went to find me, and told me to find a way to follow Prince Lian to the south of the Yangtze River, and protect as many as possible. In addition, I also plan to take this opportunity to transfer Brother-in-law Lin back to the capital."
Mother Jia's face was pale, and after Jia Amnesty had finished speaking, she said in a trembling voice, "Remember, as soon as we arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, we sent a letter to let Min'er come back. Let's not get married. Isn't it okay if we don't get married? I would rather her Be an old girl, and don't want her to have any accidents. My Min'er, it's not good to be small, but nothing will happen to her!"
"Min'er..." Jia Amnesty hesitated for a moment, thinking that if everything goes well, Jia Min might go to Beijing next year, and even if he wanted to hide it, he couldn't hide it. It's not good, it seems that the old lady of the Lin family thinks that she has never given birth, so she is a little harsh on her."
