In the morning, Jiamu's courtyard.

When Jia Jue came to Jiamu's small courtyard, she unexpectedly discovered that Jia Zheng was here.

Jia Zheng is quite self-disciplined, he goes to the Yamen every morning, unless he is Xiu Mu, he is rarely seen during the day.

"Father, did you ask for leave today?" Jia Jue asked in surprise.

Jia Zheng glanced at him and sighed deeply.

Jia Jue frowned and asked quickly, "Father, what happened?"

Jia Zheng hesitated to speak, but in the end he still didn't say the reason.

On the other hand, Mrs. Wang said unhappily: "It's not those unconscionable things, what about sycophants, sycophants, the master suffered from the boss's bullying in the yamen, and everyone didn't look at him seriously. He couldn't stand it." , and took a leave of absence."

Jia Jue understood that, as expected, he bowed to Jia Zheng and said, "The child is unfilial, and the father is so tired that he is angry."

Jia Zheng shook his head: "Ziyu doesn't need to blame himself, someone must have maliciously slandered this matter."

Jia Mu quickly said, "Brother Jue, you have to think about this matter carefully, our reputation cannot be ruined like this."

Jia Jue nodded, and was about to respond when a woman came to report:
"Old lady, second wife, Mr. Zheng, those who went out to buy at home were beaten up. If the people from the infantry camp didn't come quickly, they might have died."

"Hey, what a crime!" Mother Jia sighed heavily.

While talking, a figure ran into the room and cried to Jia Mu: "Grandma, I will never go to this Lao Shizi's school again."

It was Jia Baoyu who came.

Just as Jia Mu was about to ask him why, she suddenly saw that his cheeks were swollen.

"Oh, my darling, what's the matter!" Mother Jia immediately hugged him in her arms and asked distressedly.

"When I went to school, I met a few people. They said that brother Jue was a sycophant who deceived the king. I couldn't get angry, so I quarreled with them, they, they, they beat me!" Jia Baoyu said aggrieved .

"My darling! I have wronged you!" Mother Jia was full of distress.

Not only him, Mrs. Wang is also full of distress.

"Grandma, I don't want to go to the Imperial College anymore," Jia Baoyu said.

After Lin Daiyu went to Jiangnan, Jia Baoyu was finally sent to the Imperial College to study.

"Not going, not going. Never going again." Mother Jia said, wiping her tears.

Mrs. Wang glanced at Jia Jue, her eyes were full of annoyance, if it wasn't for him, how could Jia Baoyu be wronged like this?

Jia Zheng let out a long sigh, his expression gloomy. He really couldn't imagine how Jia Jue would deal with this matter.

Jia Jue ignored Mrs. Wang, apologized to Jia Mu and Jia Zheng, and turned to leave.

When he came outside the house, he looked up at the sky, only to see that the sky was covered with clouds.

He smiled faintly, and said to himself: "It's interesting, I want to see who you are."

……

Taibai Building, private room.

"Hahaha! It's interesting, it's really interesting. It's unbelievable that Mr. Cao has such a means. I'll toast Mr. Cao." In the private room, a young man with a white face and beardless raised his glass to a middle-aged man in coarse linen Said.

The two clinked a glass, and the middle-aged man sighed:

"Mr. Shang, Mr. Cao is no longer an official of the imperial court, and cannot be called an 'adult'."

This person is obviously Baiying's disciple, the former left deputy capital censor, Cao Shida.

"Hey, Mr. Cao, why should you be discouraged? With Mr. Cao's talent, sooner or later he will be restored to his post, and even rise to the top. Why should Mr. Cao not be worthy of this sir?" Said Mr. Shang.

Cao Shida smiled and raised his glass to him: "In this case, I will borrow your son's good words."

After the two clinked a glass again, Mr. Shang asked:

"Master Cao has a clever plan, which is beyond the reach of the world. It's just that Jia Jue is also a scheming person. From Master Cao's point of view, this time, can he have a way to resolve it?"

Cao Shida's heart skipped a beat. To be honest, he didn't know if Jia Jue would crack his method. Although he had tried many times, he was still not very sure.

But naturally he won't show it on his face, because he needs to win the support of the master behind Mr. Shang.And getting rid of Jia Jue was his vote.

"Don't worry, my lord. There is a saying called 'All mouths make gold, accumulate and destroy bones'. There is no way to prove this. How can he, Jia Jue, refute it?" He showed a confident smile.

Mr. Shang nodded: "If that's the case, then that's fine."

"Don't worry, son, there will be no mistakes." Cao Shida patted his chest.

"Okay, that's it, I will wait for the good news." Mr. Shang smiled, but then asked suddenly, "By the way, didn't you say earlier that there will be reinforcements arriving in the capital in the near future?"

Cao Shida nodded: "Not bad."

"But I don't know who it is?" Mr. Shang asked.

Cao Shida's eyes flashed with fascination when he thought of that man's alluring appearance.

"She looks like a fairy, is witty and intelligent, and has high martial arts skills. She is a first-class strange woman in the world." He said slowly.

That Mr. Shang's expression changed, and he lowered his voice and asked in a low voice: "You are talking about the saintess of your Red Lotus Sect?"

"Exactly." Cao Shida nodded.

"When will she arrive?" Mr. Shang asked quickly.

"It should be around the Spring Festival."

Mr. Shang made some calculations: "In other words, there is still about half a moon."

"good."

Mr. Shang thought for a while, and then asked: "It is rumored that the saintesses of your Red Lotus Sect hold the gold and silver treasures left by your Red Lotus Sect when it was founded?"

"That's right." Cao Shida nodded, "It is said that the first patriarch's rebellion ended in failure, but he left behind a large amount of gold and silver. The location of these gold and silver is only passed on by word of mouth by the saintesses of the past."

"I don't know, can these gold and silver..." Mr. Shang moved closer to Cao Shida, showing a greedy look.

Cao Shida sneered in his heart, but on his face he said with a smile: "If you can get the appreciation of that master, a little gold and silver, why would we be stingy?"

"Okay! What I want is your words." Mr. Shang patted the table, and a look of eagerness flashed in his eyes.

Cao Shida picked up the wine glass and clinked it with him again, with a hint of coldness and mockery in his eyes.

"It's just wishful thinking to think about the treasure of my Red Lotus Sect. If I didn't take a fancy to the identity of the dead and disabled, I would have killed you, eunuch."

Mr. Shang drank a few cups of wine, his brain became hot, and he said to Cao Shida:
"Lord Cao, I will show you a clear path. If you want to make a comeback, you should obediently respect that master. In the future, that master will be beyond words!"

Cao Shida's eyes were fixed, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "You mean?"

"Haha, I didn't say anything, just drink and drink." Mr. Shang laughed, and clinked another glass with Cao Shida.

Cao Shida clinked a glass with him, and there was a flash of horror in his eyes:
Could it be, is it really him?
