After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

As for how to pay back the money, Jia Jing has a well-thought-out plan.

After all, the prince's confidant for so many years, he did not do it for nothing, he must know something that others don't.

"If you can trust me, you can just go back and prepare money first. Things are urgent at the border. It will only take two days at most, and we can be debt-free."

He made such an oath that no one could believe it.

Although it is really heartbreaking to pull hundreds of thousands of silver out of one's own treasury all of a sudden, as long as one thinks about the possible benefits after pulling out the hundred thousand silver, the pain is nothing.

"So, I'll go back and wait for the good news from Jing'er."

"There is the Marquis of Lao Ning."

"Respect brother, don't say anything. From now on, you will be my brother."

Jia Jing bid farewell to the three of them, then turned to enter the palace again, and went to Duanben Palace to see the crown prince.

He once heard the prince say that there are many properties under the account of the nephew, among which the "Datong Bank" is spread all over the world, and it is the most reputable bank in Daxia.

From the beginning of thinking about repaying the debt, Jia Jing knew that if he wanted to do it quietly, it would most likely fall on the Datong Bank.

When Jia Jing arrived at the East Palace, the prince was still discussing politics with the saint in Qianqing Palace.

Jia Jing slapped his forehead, but he was negligent.

How could the saint not be in a hurry when such a big event happened today?

It's just that the courtiers must not know about this matter. If he directly asks to see the saint, he will inevitably bump into the important officials in the Qianqing Palace who are discussing politics.

After pondering for a moment, he took out a pouch from his sleeve and stuffed it into Wang Zhu's apprentice Sanxi, asking him to go to Qianqing Palace to find out when His Highness the Crown Prince will be back.

"His Majesty's confidantes are all in Qianqing Palace, father-in-law must be careful." Jia Jing urged with deep meaning.

Since Sanxi was able to be favored by Wang Zhu and brought up by his side, he was naturally not an ordinary clever.

He combined Jia Jing's tone with the deep meaning in his eyes, and immediately understood Jia Jing's intention.

——Since Qianqing Palace is the confidant of the saint, how could he not disturb the saint when he went to the Qianqing Palace to inquire about things?

So, after Sanxi arrived at Qianqing Palace, she dawdled deliberately for a while, and then went to find her master Wang Zhu.

"Why are you wandering around? You don't even look at this place." Wang Zhu slapped him on the back of the head, and said bitterly.

Sanxi rubbed her head "hehe" and smiled, took out the purse Jia Jing gave her: "This is not it, Mr. Jia begs to see His Highness, let me see, when will we leave here?"

The purses Jia Jing gave were usually filled with silver coins, ranging from fifty taels to thirty taels.

Jia Jing is the crown prince's confidant, and it is a kindness to give them purses. Although the money is not much, it is also a lot.

The most important thing is that they pay with peace of mind.

Wang Zhu smiled and said, "Put it away quickly, let's see how promising you are."

"Hey!" Sanxi put it into her arms with a smile, and said flatteringly, "I'll save up after I'm done, and I'll buy a pack of high-quality shredded tobacco for the master."

Wang Zhu said: "Don't just think about these things all day long, it's serious to do His Highness's errands carefully."

The two were talking when Dai Quan came out: "Hey, isn't this Sanxizi? Why are you here too?"

"Oh, it's Grandpa Dai."

Sanxi bowed and bowed again and again, and then said with a troubled expression, "Lord Jia asked to see His Highness, it seemed that there was something urgent, so the young one volunteered to see when we will leave here."

Dai Quan scolded with a smile: "You boy, you are still playing tricks on me. Why are you so diligent?"

It was exposed immediately, and Sanxi had a hippie smile: "Grandpa has piercing eyes."

Dai Quan said: "Wait, I'll go in and show you."

"Oh, thank you so much, Grandpa."

After sending him away with great gratitude, Sanxi curled her lips and said to herself: What are you pretending to be?The sage must have asked you to come out and ask, as if someone didn't know.

Wang Zhu glared at him, indicating that this was not the East Palace, and asked him to restrain himself.

Dai Quan went back to the Dongnuan Pavilion where the government was discussed, and while serving tea for the sage, he whispered the matter to the sage.

The sage waved his hand to let him go down, and he began to worry about it.

——How old is it just now?Jia Jing went and came back, but he didn't ask to see him directly, there must be something hidden in it.

Because of Jia Jing's frankness in this matter, the saint has no doubt that he is looking for the prince to conspire or something.

Coincidentally, the sage was also tired of these people's mutual avoidance, and waved his hand directly: "Okay, let's leave, the prince stays."

Guessing that several heavenly officials had already left the palace gate, the sage asked Jia Jing to be called over and asked him to speak face to face.

And Jia Jing said it very sincerely: "It was Tai-zu Rende back then. He saw that the minister had no money to build the mansion, so he allowed the nephew to fund it. Over the years, the minister has also saved some money, so he thought about giving the money to the family. I paid it back. This way, it can be regarded as having a beginning and an end, and it is the testimony of the relationship between the ancestors and the ancestors."

What he said was so beautiful, and the sage was in a hurry to spend money, so naturally he would not be too evasive.

And those words of evasion that sounded like an official face were all dismissed plausibly by Jia Jing.

Not only that, Jia Jing also gave the saint an idea: let's quietly pay back the money and return it to the niece.The sage can spend military expenses from his nephew to demonstrate benevolence.

In this way, there is both face and benefits, and the saint Longxin is very happy.

There was no need for Jia Jing to worry about it, so he offered to offer that when it was late tomorrow, they could take the silver and go to Datong Bank to exchange the IOU.

In this way, the best of both worlds, everyone is happy.

The saint was satisfied, and Jia Jing also breathed a sigh of relief.

After returning home, Jia Jing passed the news to the other three people, and asked Jiao Da to go to the public treasury to withdraw the 50 taels of silver that Jia Yuan borrowed back then.

Everything is safe here in Ningguo Mansion, but Rongguo Mansion is almost turned upside down.

After Jia Daishan received Jia Jing's letter, he personally took people to the public treasury to get the silver.Therefore, this matter was kept secret, and he didn't disclose it to anyone, but he almost died of anger when he didn't want to.

It turned out that after he ordered people to take out the silver boxes from the back of the warehouse, he carefully removed the seals and checked them one by one.

In this test, the problem arose.

However, in the box that was supposed to contain 60 taels of silver, the lower half of the silver turned into lumps of lead.

Jia Daishan's vision went dark immediately, if it wasn't for the support of his personal guards, he would almost fall down.

He knew very well that it was important to pay back the money at this time, and everything else was secondary.

Therefore, he took a deep breath and ordered someone to take out the lead piece and make it up with his own money, and he was going to wait until the money was paid back tomorrow night before making a fuss.

"You brought people along and tied up Lai Da's family." Jia Daishan calmly ordered the guards.

Apart from him, only Shi Shi has the key to the public treasury.

He has never touched the money, so it is clear who moved it.

And if Shi Shi wants to exchange the money in the treasury, her confidants will depend on everyone's help.

Hmph, Lai Da, the housekeeper, I'm afraid he has forgotten who is the master of Rongguo Mansion!

Shi Shi couldn't see everyone Lai for a day, so he would naturally ask.

But Jia Daishan had already made arrangements, and Shi only knew that Lai was ill and could not come to serve him for the time being.

Master Lai's dowry was Shi's dowry, and he married the housekeeper of the mansion. Shi has always relied on her, and when he heard that she was ill, he ordered someone to give her money.

That bag of silver was naturally delivered to Jia Daishan.

Looking at the 20 taels of silver on the table, Jia Daishan sneered again and again: Shi Shi is generous!

He remembered that when several of his concubines passed away, Shi only paid 20 taels of silver to make arrangements.

Now that a servant is sick, she just gave the 20 taels.

Jia Daishan suppressed his anger, and managed to stay until midnight of the next day. When there was no one on the street, he met Jia Jing and went to Datong Bank to exchange the old IOU with silver.

As soon as he got home, he didn't sleep anymore, and ordered someone to raid Shi's private treasury.

Although he didn't care about Shi Shi's dowry, he still knew about how much it was.

He also obtained Shi's dowry list through Mr. Lai. After checking, he found that there were [-]% more items in the private treasury than on the dowry list.

What's more, there are several very precious and exquisite things that were bestowed by Tai-zu.

The missing more than 20 taels of silver was naturally found in Shi's private treasury.

Jia Daishan only felt that his eyes turned black, and his throat felt fishy and sweet.

Forced to suppress the blood pressure, Jia Daishan ordered someone to boil a bowl of ginseng soup for himself, and then sat in the main hall and waited for Shi to wake up.

Early the next morning, Shi Shi woke up as usual, facing a violent storm.

"Where am I sorry for you? You want to cut off the back road of my Rongguo Mansion."

Jia Daishan's face was very calm, but there was a feeling of suppressing the storm, which made Shi Shi tremble all over.

"Master... master, what do you mean?"

Jia Daishan didn't bother to talk nonsense to her, so he waved for someone to bring up the money.

Because it is old silver in the private treasury of the previous dynasty, it still has the official seal of the previous dynasty on it.

Shi is a woman in the inner house, who only recognizes the official seal of this dynasty, and thinks that the silver has a special pattern.

Jia Daishan said: "Where did the money come from?"

Shi's heart skipped a beat, but he insisted: "I have so much dowry for so many years, what's the use of earning some money?"

Jia Daishan laughed angrily: "You are really capable, the money earned from the dowry can carry the official seal of the previous dynasty."

Shi Shi was stunned, knowing that he couldn't hide it, he couldn't help but collapsed on the ground in fright.
