"Master is not well. There are many masters from Jinyi Mansion outside. They entered the second gate without waiting for notification." Jia Zheng was drinking and laughing with the Qing guests in the outer study room. Hearing this, he was shocked and hurried Ask the boy who sent the message:

"Can you find out what you do?"

"They came in aggressively, and they were going to rush through the second door before we could ask for clarification. The master hurried over to greet them, otherwise the old lady might be alarmed."

Jia Zheng hastily dismissed all the guests and hurried to the second gate, only to meet the officials of Jinyi Mansion, and after welcoming them to the main hall, he ordered his servants to serve him tea.

"No need, please ask the old man to be troubled. Come with us." Among the gentlemen in Jinyi Mansion, one or two people know each other. The little official came to restrain Jia Zheng.

"My lord, this Jia Zheng is not only a queen of meritorious service, but also the biological father of a noble concubine, at least he should be decent." One of the people saw Jia Zheng trembling with fright, and couldn't bear it.

"Since that's the case, don't move around."

"I don't know what happened to my lowly position, which disturbed all the masters." Jia Zheng glanced gratefully at the person who spoke for him, and then asked the leading master.

"There are a lot of crimes committed by Censor Shen. The East Mansion is probably starting to search, so let's solve it quickly." The leader of the master waved his hand, and the soldiers of Jinyi Mansion were ready to go to the inner house.

"There is still an old lady in the house, it's not good to disturb her, why don't you ask the women in the inner house to stay away first?" A person who knew Jia Zheng well said.

"Forget it, the old lady is old after all, and the order will be passed on, only the evidence will be searched, and the women in the inner house are not allowed to be disturbed." The leading master thought for a while.

Jia Zheng was so terrified that he had to drink tea with him in the main hall.

When the female relatives got the news, they all gathered in the room designated by the master of Jinyi Mansion.When Jia Mu heard the news, she fainted, and it took a while to wake up, holding Baoyu in her arms and weeping.

Seeing that everyone was crying bitterly, Xue Baochai had no choice but to stop her tears and forcefully persuade her:

"I don't know the reason why so many people come so well. I heard from the boy that if the master is detained outside, he can't get in. He has to send someone out to inquire."

"My son, how do you know how powerful it is? This is a house raid, and people in our house can't get out. Besides, our big family has no one who is useful. It's a pity that Lian'er is not here, and I don't know Zhen'er." What's the situation in the mansion." The old lady said slowly.

"I just hope that the girls will take care of us outside." Aunt Xue said.

The people in Rongguo Mansion suffered a lot in the mansion. Fortunately, Jia Huan and Jia Lan got the news, hurriedly inquired about the reason and hurried back to the mansion. Seeing that it was the Jia family, the military officials of Jinyi Mansion realized that they were from the superiors and let them in.

"It's all like this in the mansion. What are you going to do when you come back? At least leave some flesh and blood outside." The gentlemen of Jinyi Mansion were busy counting their belongings, only Jia Zheng was guarded in the main hall. Seeing Jia Huan coming in, he was busy hating Tie Cursed without steel.

"I don't know the situation of the master and aunt. My son is also worried when he is away. Why don't we come in and have a look? We are all together." Jia Huan replied with tears in his eyes.

"I don't know what evil I have done in my life!" Jia Zheng sighed, holding Jia Huan and weeping.

"I don't dare to ask around, I only hear a few things in a daze." Jia Huan reassured Jia Zheng and replied.

"what's up?"

"One is that the wife in charge of the mansion gave away money for profit, and exploiting it is a serious crime. Second, the old case of the master's indulgence and bullying of the people has also been uncovered. The third is that our mansion is not strict, and the servants are making trouble outside. Yes. There are also some unclear charges, the most important thing is that our family colluded with the king of Beijing to plot rebellion."

"What? Rebellion?" Jia Zheng sat down on the chair after hearing this.

"Prince Beijing's mansion was also raided. It is said that there are some prohibited items. However, the prince of Beijing Jing cried blood and said that he was deceived by villains and ordered by us to do so."

"Ridiculous! We are just in-laws, and I don't know what your third sister is doing now."

"It is said that some extraordinary items were found in Princess Beijing's natal home. The princess has committed suicide, but there is no news about the third sister. However, with the Supreme Emperor here, Prince Beijing will be fine. It's just us and the various palaces. Families with close contacts have all suffered. The emperor is now suspicious of King Beijing, and other palaces will not be able to go smoothly, and we are the first to bear the brunt." Jia Huan sighed.

Jia Huan accompanied Jia Zheng outside, but Jia Lan only went inside to look for his mother.

Seeing this, Li Wan turned pale with fright, and hurriedly pushed Jia Lan away:

"What are you doing back, get out quickly."

"What your mother said is that you and Huan'er got out after a long time, so why bother to come back, the whole family is inside." Jia Mu also sighed.

"Third Uncle Huan is also back, talking to the master outside."

"Since I came back, have I heard any news? It's all right, why did you search the house?" Mrs. Wang asked hurriedly.

Jia Lan hurriedly recounted the information she had inquired in detail, and Mrs. Wang's expression turned ashen.

Sure enough, the military officials of Jinyi Mansion confiscated a large amount of evidence in Rongguo Mansion, including receipts for profit, a large number of illegal items, and the furniture of each house, even the private treasuries of the old lady and Mrs. Wang were also confiscated. .

The master of Jinyi Mansion sealed up the evidence and guarded the female relatives, and only detained Jia Zheng to return to the yamen for interrogation.Jia Zheng just didn't know everything, so the master of Jinyi Mansion had no choice but to report the evidence and Jia Zheng's words to the emperor.

After looking at it, the emperor asked left and right:

"The Beijing Palace has been raided. What happened to the other palaces? What about the aristocratic families involved? Did you find anything?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, the other princes are now in the Supreme Palace, pleading for the prince of Beijing, saying that they voluntarily lowered their ranks, and it is estimated that the Supreme Emperor's will will come in a while. Princess Beijing committed suicide, and her natal family bears all the responsibilities. Prince Jing has picked it all up now. Among the implicated aristocratic families, they have confiscated a large amount of property accumulated and illegal items."

"They are well-behaved. After this incident, there will be no more big disturbances. They can't kill them too much. Otherwise, it will be difficult to wait for the father to come to intercede for them. According to the decree of my kindness, the Beijing Palace will be demoted to three ranks. The rest of the palaces were demoted to one level, and the prohibited items were removed. The property and mansions of the implicated aristocratic families were returned to the national treasury, except for those with solid evidence and heinous crimes.

As soon as the emperor's decree came out, all the big families were grateful and wept endlessly.

Jia Zheng was the imperial concubine's biological father, and was released by the emperor, and everyone in the Rongguo Mansion cried bitterly.

Jia Zheng knelt in front of Jia's mother and pleaded guilty:

"The son is not filial, he has lost all his ancestral inheritance, and made the old lady worry about his son."

"I don't need to mention it in the past. Fortunately, the emperor's grace is great, and the flesh and blood are all there, so there is nothing to force. Only poor brother Zhen and Rong'er will be sent to the frontier to serve in the near future, and take their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law over." , can be regarded as a family reunion."

"What the old lady said is true, but we can't afford to live in our house. We must wrong the old lady and go to Huan'er for a while."

At this time, Jia's mother was a little lucky, and gave Shi Xiangyun to Jia Huan, and now they can give everyone a place to live.

Not long after, Jia Zhen led Jia Rong and You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law over. Jia's mother saw that there were only four of them left in the huge Ningguo Mansion, and she couldn't help crying again.The servants of Rongguo Mansion were also betrayed by Jinyi Mansion, but at least they kept all the maids in front of them, but Jia Zhen and Jia Rong didn't even keep their aunts.

"Don't be sad, old lady. It's all our fault. I don't dare to hurt the old lady. Fortunately, Rong'er and I are only going to work for the emperor. It's just that the journey is farther away. If we have meritorious service, You can get up and go back to Beijing." Jia Zhen wiped her tears, and seeing Jia's mother sad, hurriedly crawled a few steps to her knees and said.

"Zhen'er has this kind of heart, my wife is also at ease, but it's a pity that your daughter-in-law, after working so hard to manage the family business for so many years, now has nothing. Don't worry, brother Zhen, they will follow my wife from now on, but you are Young couple, talk more in these two days."

"Old lady, don't worry. Your Majesty has given me grace to bring the family." Jia Zhen said hastily.

"Confused, what is that place, how can I take them there."

"I've already inquired about it. Although it's not as good as Beijing, it's adequate for basic necessities. The fourth younger sister heard about our family and said that she would add a penny or two to the dowry I bought for her back then. Be more frugal, our husband and wife and Brother Rong will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives. The old lady has a lot of people here, and Brother Huan's yard is small, so let's bother the fourth sister for two days."

"That's good, I'm relieved." Since the house was raided, there was finally a happy event. Mother Jia saw that their father, son, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were picked up by people from Lin's mansion, and then ordered everyone to go to Jia Huan's mansion together.
