Sister Xue of the Red Chamber

Chapter 86 Checking Secret Accounts

Concealing money and setting fire to the upper body is added to the crime of secret accounts

Although Qianlong had already obtained the evidence of the Zhen family's crimes and made many arrangements, he did not want to but came out with Gao Bin who was determined to avenge his daughter.

The Supreme Emperor first came to take care of the old minister, and secondly he wanted to test his son, and urged Qianlong to call Zhen and Jia to subdue him.

Mrs. Jia is better off.

Not to mention whether the Jia family will take the lead for her, even if Jia pardons Jia Zhen and rushes to take advantage of her, the Jia family doesn't have the ability!

Another one, everyone in the palace already had guesses in their hearts.

On the 23rd of the first lunar month, Gao was seriously ill and promoted to the concubine, and everyone knew that this was for joy.

Concubine Yu Keliyet has an older brother, and now the Holy Majesty has few heirs, and it will be a matter of time before she becomes Concubine Yu.

Zhen Shi and Gao Shi live together in Xianfu Palace, and even got a title, after all, they are still happy for Gao Shi.

Of the three nobles in Xianfu Palace, apart from the noble Jia Jia Xiande who has not made any movement, the emperor actually called Jin noble not long ago to be promoted to the concubine!

A cousin who came out of the mansion, a Jia Xiande who has been in the palace for more than ten years, is still a little noble without a title; a Jia Yingchun who has been in the palace for less than a year, has a title after the first seal, and now it seems to be squeezed out of the hall. Like a sister, she was promoted to concubine in the blink of an eye.

Not to mention the importance the emperor attaches to Concubine Jin here, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor is blatantly slapping Jia Xiande in the face!

In addition, since Concubine Hui passed away, Jia Guiren seemed to have been grounded again, and no longer appeared in front of people...

The reason is not difficult to understand.

The nobleman is different.

Not to mention that she was not suspected in the eyes of everyone, even if Qianlong wanted to make her die suddenly, he had to weigh the Zhen family!

Regardless of whether Zhen Yingjia has the love for the baby or not, the Zhen family worked hard to arrange for three daughters to be selected into the palace, and only Zhen Heng became the emperor's concubine as he wished.

Although he is just a noble person, at least he just got a title today, didn't he?

Status, favor, pregnancy, and heirs, the Zhen family doesn't want to let go of any of them!

If Qianlong disposes of the nobleman at this time, it will inevitably hinder the affairs of the court.

However, the Supreme Emperor was in a hurry.

Qianlong had no choice but to order people to go to Jiangnan, Jinling and Suzhou to announce Zhen Yingjia's crimes together. They must arrest all the members of Zhen's family, big and small, and don't miss one!

Prince Teng lived in Jinling, and Jia Lian was in Yangzhou, the place that must pass between Jinling and Suzhou. Weng and his son-in-law worked together to arrest all the Zhen clansmen in the two places overnight!

It's a pity that it was too hasty!

Qianlong sighed after receiving the reward.

After all, the preparations were not thorough enough, and there was no time to order people to investigate in advance, so that a few people were leaked.

Zhen Baoyu and Zhen Zhu, under the order of Zhen Yingjia, brought a large amount of belongings to Beijing to congratulate the nobleman on getting the title.At the same time, it was also to look at the house in advance for the Zhen family to move to the capital in the future.

As the governor of Liangjiang, Wang Ziteng was sitting in Jinling, but he didn't even know about it. This shows the power of the Zhen family!

While Qianlong was sighing, guests came to Jia's house in Beipaer Hutong.

"Even if you don't talk about the Rongguo Mansion, just start with the Wang family, our two families can be regarded as family friends!" Mrs. Wang glanced at the boxes under the hall, and said to the Zhen brothers and sisters with a smile: "What's more, the four families in Jinling were the same family back then. If you are so angry, how can there be any reason to refuse to save yourself?"

"My wife is kind, and Zhen Baoyu is very grateful."

"It's just..." Mrs. Wang changed the subject and sighed: "Now I can't be the master in this house! The master is partial to the lowly maidservant, if I insist on keeping you, I'm afraid that lowly maidservant will push you The master kicked you out of the mansion! It's only because there is no elder in this mansion..."

Zhen Baoyu understood, and hurriedly said: "Madam, don't worry. When my father ordered my nephew to go to Beijing, he ordered my nephew to go and pay my respects to the old lady. Some of the wives I brought with me often go to Rongfu. Only my wife is welcome." Refers to a person, just take my nephew with me!"

"Good boy, it's good if you have the heart." Mrs. Wang hurriedly stopped her, "Now the mansion is in the hands of my useless uncle. Although the old lady has never suffered any serious grievances, even if you go, I won't be able to keep you. Yes. I just secretly sent a trusted friend to deliver a message to the old lady."

Zhen Baoyu naturally obeyed.

Zhen Baoyu and Zhen Zhu brought their families, and they heard the news that Zhen's family ransacked their house before they even entered Beijing.

Fortunately, the news of the escaped person had not reached the capital, but the group entered the city gate smoothly.

Before Zhen Zhu's election, Zhen Yingjia had learned about the family backgrounds of the concubines in the palace, so she naturally knew about the separation of the first and second families of the Rong Mansion.

If it was said that the brothers and sisters of the Zhen family were planning to defect to the Rong Mansion, then they would not be able to enter the Rong Mansion now!How much of the separation of the Rong Mansion is because the royal family protects Jia Amnesty?Going to Rongfu, I dare to give Jia She a great contribution by myself!

Mrs. Wang volunteered to ask her cronies to invite Jia's mother, so the two brothers and sisters were naturally happy!

Mrs. Wang is interested in money, but Mother Jia is interested in people.

Mother Jia knew that the Zhen family was hopeless.

Since Zhen Zhu was carefully brought up by the Zhen family to be sent to the palace, rather than handing over Zhen Zhu, it would be better to take Baoyu cheaper!

Yin said in a deep voice: "I'm not going to tell you nothing. The Holy Spirit is arbitrary. Even if I risk all of Jia's family, I won't be able to save a man!"

Zhen Baoyu's heart was moved when he heard the words, and he couldn't care about his own affairs for a moment, and immediately knelt down to Jiamu: "Please save Zhuer's life, the old lady!"

Jia's mother said: "My daughter, you seldom see foreigners. It's better to ask Zhu Er to stay. You can find another person to pretend to be her. How can the officials recognize her?"

Heng, Ping, Zhu, Ju, and Yu, the five concubines of the Zhen family are preparing to enter the palace!Naturally it is well hidden.Except for the members of the direct branch of the Zhen family and the palace people in charge of the small elections in the palace, no one else has seen it.

If Zhen Zhu hadn't been defeated, Zhen Yingjia would not have asked her to go out.

The Zhen family is a big family, so long that it has attracted the taboo of the emperor, so the family rules are naturally extremely strict.

Now that Zhen Zhu can be saved, who in the Zhen family will talk too much?Even if it was the emperor, it would not be necessary to send a palace official to verify Zhen Zhu's integrity.

If Zhen Zhu was arrested, or sold on the street as a family member of a criminal official, or exiled with his clan, it would be worse than hiding in Jia's mansion anyway.

Zhen Baoyu kowtowed to Jiamu, "Pearl will depend on the old lady from now on!"

After finishing speaking, she stood up, led the people brought by the Zhen family, turned around and left the house.

Zhen Zhu couldn't call Zhen Baoyu, and Yuanyang and Zhou Rui's family were pulling her.Seeing that his elder brother had gone out of the gate and could no longer see anyone, he finally fell limp to the ground.

Mother Jia stood up, took two steps, pulled Zhen Zhu up, patted her hand and said lovingly, "You can stay here from now on! At least leave a trace of flesh and blood for your father!"

As he spoke, he motioned for Yuanyang to fetch a pen and paper, and handed it over.

"You brothers and sisters have been here for a while, I'm afraid you can't hide it from others. Although your brother should be buying someone to replace you now, we have to be careful. If something goes wrong and someone comes to search, we can't You have no status. This is a deed of sale, so you can sign it! From now on, you will be the dowry maid of the late Aunt You, Ningmei!"

Terrified, Zhen Zhu raised her head abruptly, only to see Mother Jia still smiling kindly.

On the second day, the sea arrest documents of Zhen Baoyu and Zhen Zhu were posted in the capital.

Three days later, Zhen Baoyu was brought to justice, and Zhen Zhu died of illness two days ago.

There is an extra Aunt Mei in Jia Baoyu's room.

As early as the day when the arrest order was issued, officials searched Jia's mansion in Beipaer Hutong.

Now Jia Zheng has no official or job, and he is just a prison student, the prison that the old Duke gave him when he was alive.Officials came to search the house, but he couldn't stop him at all.

The official sent a portrait of Zhen Baoyu in his hand, if Jia Baoyu hadn't lost his human form due to illness, he might have been arrested.

As for Zhen Zhu, since there was no portrait, she had to gather the maidservants of the same age in Jia's mansion together, checked each other with her deeds, and then let her go.

Jia Zheng was about to see off the guests, but the officer smiled and said, "Wait a minute! There are still warehouses that haven't been checked yet. Please...Master Jia, please take us to search it. Give the boss an explanation."

Jia Zheng said angrily, "What's the point!"

"It's not that we intended to offend you. After all, you and General Jia of the Rong Mansion are brothers." The official took out the account book and shook it in his hand. The relationship between people. Then Zhen Baoyu brought a lot of money to Beijing, who knows if it is hidden in your house!"

Trembling with anger, Jia Zheng ordered someone to open the warehouse, leaving behind the words "cleaner cleans himself" and walked away.

Mrs. Wang was leaning on the couch, and Caixia was beating her legs beside her.

Seeing Jia Zheng coming in angrily, he hurriedly stood up to greet him.

"Master, who is angry with you?"

Jia Zheng sat down, drank two cups of tea, and said in a deep voice, "The tiger fell to Pingyang and was bullied by dogs!"

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "At any rate, I sent them away. Although it was a false alarm, nothing happened at all. Master, please calm down!"

"Send it away?" Jia Zheng sneered, "Where can I send it away! Right now, the store is being searched!"

Mrs. Wang was taken aback. There are many shameful things in this warehouse!Quickly asked: "Okay, why do you want to search the warehouse?"

"It is said that I got the account book of the Zhen family's favor."

Mrs. Wang's face turned pale.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Caixia at the side didn't care about anything else, so she hurriedly and quietly pinched Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang came back to her senses, suppressed her fear, and said, "My lord, you are a gentleman yourself, how can those officials understand that! No one is watching the warehouse, so I don't worry!"

Jia Zheng shook his head and said, "If you are worried, go and see by yourself. I don't want to see those rough people again!"

Along the way, Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth in regret.

Before Jia Mu returned to Rong Mansion that day, she had already ordered those boxes not to be kept!

Because of his greed, he secretly ordered someone to move the contents to the warehouse, and only split the box for firewood.

I thought it was just some gold and silver, and the only jewelry and ornaments could be mixed with the original things at home.The left and right didn't write the word "Zhen", they only said it was from their own family, who would doubt it?

Who would have thought that these official messengers would carry the account books of the Zhen family!

As long as they find something belonging to the Zhen family, they don't need to turn the warehouse upside down!

Myself, I hid a lot of things in the storeroom... Some of Jia Lian's birth mother's dowry were said to have been lost for a long time, but now they are all in the storeroom.The relics of Duke Rong Guo that Jia's mother secretly gave to Baoyu were also stored in the warehouse, which also contained a lot of Jia She's biological mother's dowry.

Not to mention the inner-made things sent by Yuan Chun from the palace, they have never passed through the road of enlightenment!

There is also the account book where I put interest money outside!Although the account book was well hidden, it was rolled up and stuffed into a plum vase with peony patterns, and this plum vase and three plum vases with lotus patterns were placed in a box, and the top of the box was pressed again. There are two boxes, a total of more than a dozen large boxes are stacked on the front, back, left, and right sides, each of which is filled with plum bottles!

If you can make it in time, you can keep an eye on them instead of taking out the plum vases one by one for a closer look...

Just as he was thinking, he came to the warehouse door in a blink of an eye.

Mrs. Wang stepped into the door quickly, and as soon as she turned around, she saw that the leading official was about to pick up a plum vase with a lotus pattern.

"Put it down!" Madam Wang screamed, "If you knocked or broke it, you can't afford it!"

The officer was startled, let go of his hand, and the plum bottle fell back into the box with a clang, smashed into pieces.

By the way, two plum vases with entwined lotus patterns and one plum vase with entwined peony patterns in the box were also smashed to pieces.

The officer hurriedly turned around and said, "If you hadn't made a sudden noise, I wouldn't have let go! It's not my fault!"

The subordinate at the side suddenly shouted: "Look what's in that box? How could a book be smashed out of a bottle!"
