Seeing that Wang Xifeng was relieved, Zhou Rui's family was really happy, and flattered her for a long time.Then he said again: "There is one more thing to trouble grandma. My son-in-law's former son was framed and sued in the yamen because of a conflict with others, and the shop was closed. Grandma knows that my son-in-law is in business. The most trustworthy. It is said that grandma is still raising her body, and slaves should not bother grandma with these trivial matters. But who doesn't know that grandma is 1 times less capable than others. This matter is a big deal in our eyes. It's not a matter of saying a word in front of grandma."

Wang Xifeng looked at this servant, and he really came to intercede with him.With a sneer in his heart, he said: "What is the reason for this? Don't play tricks in front of me. Don't blame me if you hurt the reputation of the mansion."

"No matter how dare you lie to grandma, my son-in-law has always been a dutiful businessman. You can't do those criminal things. It's all business dealings that have been set up by others." Zhou Rui's family listened to Wang Xifeng's words , hurriedly replied.

"In that case, go home and wait for Xin'er. Tomorrow, I'll ask someone to go to the yamen to ask." Wang Xifeng replied, but she thought in her heart that we should all wait for Xin'er.

The next morning, Wang Xifeng got up early, packed up, and went to Rongqing Hall to greet Jiamu.As soon as he entered the house, he saluted the old lady and the two wives first.He also said hello to Li Wan and Baoyu Sanchun, and said: "Greetings to the ancestors. The grandson's daughter-in-law's illness has caused you to worry about it. It is the grandson's daughter-in-law's fault. I saw that the old lady asked people to see her off every day. I was so reluctant to get those good things, I just thought I could get some more. But seeing you keep giving them away every day, no matter how thick-skinned I am, I can't bear to accept them."

When she said this, everyone laughed.The straight-smiling Jia Mu pointed at her and said with a smile: "Just say you monkey is greedy for my things, why don't you bring it to me and give it to her."

While everyone was joking.Suddenly I heard people running here in a commotion outside, and after a while, I saw a woman from the East courtyard rushing in, went directly into the room and knelt down and said in a hurry: "Old lady, the eunuch came to the palace and the eunuch sent an order from the sage, saying yes We lost the imperial gift, and the two masters of the Xuan family went to the palace to question the crime."

Everyone was shocked after hearing this.Jia Mu only felt a blackness in front of her eyes, and she fell backwards.Everyone rushed up to help Jiamu.The people in the next room panicked even more, those who took the medicine took the medicine, and those who passed on the imperial physician to the imperial physician.After being in a hurry for a long time, Jia's mother finally let go of this breath and woke up.

Wang Xifeng was also surprised. He had heard from Lian Er that he planned to find items from the old warehouse at home in Leng Zixing's antique shop.Originally, he wanted to get people outside to make a fuss, make the matter big, and then spread it into the mansion, so that he could find an excuse to check the treasury.Thinking of finding out those moths in the mansion, I can get a fortune so that I can pay back the debt owed by the court.Who would have thought that this group of servants without the king's law dared to touch the objects bestowed by the emperor.This is the crime of beheading, thinking about it, I can't help feeling scared.

Mrs. Wang at the side was also in a panic. The warehouse in this mansion has been held in her hands for so many years, and she can still count how much she has taken.Who knew that this gang of slaves stretched out their hands so long, and suddenly they were caught by someone else and caused this incident, so I couldn't get away with it.

The whole family waited in Rongqing hall for half a day in panic.Finally, a little maid came running outside and hurriedly reported, "Elder Master and Second Master have returned home, and have already entered the Second Gate."

"Quickly, let them come in." Jiamu said quickly.

While talking, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng had already lifted the curtain and came in.When they entered the room, they saw Jia's mother leaning on the couch, Xing Shi and Wang Shi, together with Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, Baoyu and Sanchun, surrounded and waited on her.

The two hurriedly knelt in front of Jia Mu's bed, and the surrounding female relatives hurriedly avoided.Seeing this, Li Wan quietly took Sanchun and Baoyu to hide in the Bisha cabinet.Jia Zheng directly kowtowed to him and said, "It's the son's unfilial piety, which caused the old lady to suffer." As he spoke, his eye circles were red, and the mother and son looked at each other with tearful eyes and were close to crying.

When Jia She saw the situation of the mother and son, he turned his mouth and said, "Go back to the old lady, it turned out that the Wucheng soldiers and horses were ordered to search the antique shop of Zhou Rui's son-in-law, and in the end they not only found many old people with the seal of our house Objects, and a jade ruyi made inside. Although there is no seal on it, according to the records of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it was indeed given to my father by the old sage."

Seeing that Jia Zheng just lowered his head and said nothing, Jia Amnesty continued: "The saint announced that the two of us entered the palace, and he wanted to question the crime directly. Fortunately, the old saint sent an oral order from the old saint to the former eunuch, saying that Nian was escorting his father back then. For meritorious service, we were only fined one year's salary, and asked to be relieved of our errands first, and only return to the manor to tidy up the house."

Hearing what Jia She said, the whole room was relieved.Knowing this, the old sage still misses the past.

Jia's mother was also relieved, and said to Jia Amnesty: "Usually, I will tell you, don't let the official do not do well. All day long, the family only knows to drink with the little wife. What happened now?"

"Old lady Mingjian, since Lian'er's mother is gone, the house is run by the second younger brother and his wife. The key to the warehouse has never been in my hands. Why is something wrong now, and it's my fault." Jia Amnesty hastily complained.

After hearing this, Jia's mother couldn't stand it anymore. She pointed at Jia She and said, "What do you mean? I can't say anything about you now. It's an eyesore to my old lady." Gong Lai only said that his son could not tolerate him anymore and wanted to go back to Jinling to accompany him.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room knelt down.Jia She only said: "Calm down the old lady's anger, my son will never dare again. But now the two sages, because our brother is not good at running the family, ordered to reprimand, and relieved the second brother from the errands and only asked us to handle the family affairs in the mansion. You can only leave the mansion on business if you take good care of it. The second brother and his wife have been in charge of the mansion for many years. Now it seems that not only the imperial gifts are lost, but also many items in our old treasury. Since the two saints The decree has been made, and now we can only open the treasury to check the accounts!"

Mother Jia choked when she heard the words, and she called herself the housekeeper of the second and second sons. She just watched the eldest take the title, and thought that when she got old, the second wife would only be able to share [-]% of the family property and leave the house to live elsewhere. precious jade.That's why I asked them to accumulate more family assets while they were still there.There is also a share of my own ladder that I have given to Baoyu, so that even if I lose myself in the future, I don't have to worry about the livelihood of the second wife.

Now I have to open the treasury to reconcile the accounts, I am absolutely unwilling.But the boss moved out the two saints without opening his mouth, and it seemed that he could no longer stop him.After thinking for a long time, I could only open my mouth and said: "Since it is the will of the saint, I will not stop you. You will start to reconcile accounts tomorrow. But boss, I know you blame me for favoring your brother. But the second child is the brother of your first mother, He is also the son of the Duke of the State, and in the future he can only take some property to be separated from the mansion, so I am usually biased. Now the mansion can only rely on your brothers to work together to get through this hurdle."

Hearing what Jia's mother said, everyone had different thoughts, but Jia She understood that this was to give the second child time to make up for the leak.At the moment, I just said that I didn't dare not to say more. I just took Mrs. Xing and Jia Lian back to the East Courtyard.

The family of Dafang sat in Jia She's study and didn't have time for a cup of tea, when Jia She suddenly asked: "Lian'er, is there anything that is not thoughtful?"

"Back to the master, those old people in the village, the healthy servants and dozens of accountants are all waiting in that house now. They can be used at any time." Jia Lian replied hastily.

Jia She heard the words and said: "Since you have obtained the imperial edict, you should do what you should do now. Hurry up and don't let those slaves take advantage of it."

Jia Lian answered in a hurry, took Jia Amnesty's post, turned around and went out.Although Mrs. Xing was confused, she also became nervous.

It turned out that Jia Lian took Jia Amnesty's name card and went out directly to the Wucheng Bingma Division. He gave enough benefits to the commander and a group of yamen servants, and only said that he wanted to take advantage of the family thief.Because the entire capital heard that the Rongguo Mansion had ordered the Holy Order to punish it for losing the imperial gift, so the other side also cooperated with it.Only Leng Zixing's family and Lai Shangrong's Lai family were directly surrounded, and all the family members were taken to the prison. The confiscated family properties of the two families were also registered and compiled by the government, and they were sealed with separate seals.

The rest of the Rongguo Mansion's big and small stewards and prominent servants were all pre-prepared by Jia Lian, and they were all copied and wiped out in several ways.Regardless of Zhou Rui's family, Lin Zhixiao's family, Shan Daliang's family, or Wu Xindeng's family, none of them were spared.Pull the bundled stewards and their families and the copied things and finances directly into the house prepared in advance.

At each gate of Rongguo Mansion, there are seven or eight strong servants with big arms and round waists, who are allowed to leave but not allowed to enter.Anyone who makes trouble and wants to go to the mansion to file a complaint will be tied up and taken away.

Jia Lian looked at the boxes of gold and silver, jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, and the stacks of house deeds and land deeds that were continuously brought in.He cursed in his heart: This gang of black-hearted slaves, all of them stretch out their hands, are more greedy than their own master who has no private property.It's really hateful, they should all be sold to mines for coal mining.

The more I looked at it, the more angry I was, I turned my head to those accountants who kept counting and the strong men who were carrying things into the yard, and said: "Everyone, work harder, work hard for these two days, and reward everyone after the work is done. "This group of people really became more motivated after hearing this.

Although preparations were made in advance and a lot of people were recruited, it was not until the time to light the lamp that the copy was almost finished.Jia Lian didn't have time to rest, and stayed up until midnight before taking stock of these things with dozens of accountants.

Looking at the accounts in his hand, Jia Lian only felt blood in his heart.In that day alone, Zhou Rui's family confiscated more than [-] yuan in cash, as well as other farm shops, jewelry and antiques.That's right, Zhou Rui was in charge of all the farms and Zhuangzi's renting in spring and autumn. He often heard from them that there was drought this year, flood next year, and pests the year after.Nong's mansion does not harvest a lot every year, and it turned out that it all went into the pocket of this servant.In addition, there are two boxes of IOUs for loan lending. It seems that they are all loans in the name of the mansion. It seems that my good second aunt has really done this business of cutting off children and grandchildren.There are also compradors everywhere, and the least in each family has an estate of tens of thousands of taels of silver.

On weekdays, the old ladies have always said that their family is a family of good deeds, and they only say that they should treat these servants more leniently, and take care of the face of one and the other, so that they, the slaves, are more face than the master.Now it seems that this blind generosity has really raised a good servant with a big heart!In fact, they all deserve to be killed.Immediately ask people to tie up these managers and their family members and lock them up in another house, so that people can look after them.It just means that the government will be sorted out tomorrow and then sent out together.

Since Jia Lian acted quickly and did it secretly, the other people in the mansion have not been alarmed yet.

******

Here, Jia Lian's house raids were in full swing, and Xu Li's system continuously displayed reward reminders, a total of more than a dozen or twenty.No matter how wide-eyed he was, he couldn't help but feel sore again.This reward is simply endless.I don't know if the endless rewards will have any impact on me.But a person like Wang Xifeng, who dares to reward her so much at once, is afraid that she will cause some trouble again, and it will be bad.
