Kuai Chuan's brother is the real boss

"Get out of the way, do you dare to block the road if you know whose car it is, and don't want to live?"

"Hurry up and get out of the way, delaying the imperial concubine's family visit, can you wait for the troublemaker to pay the responsibility?"

On the bustling streets, a team of chariots and horses were rampant, but no one dared to control them.

Jiang Yan stood in the crowd and watched. He knew that it was something purchased by the Rongguo Mansion this morning, and these people relied on their power to fully interpret the four characters of'running and domineering'.

Not long ago, the emperor appointed Jia Yuanchun, who entered the palace as a female envoy, as Shangshu of Fengzao Palace, and another virtuous concubine became a new concubine. The emperor also allowed her to go home to visit her relatives. Jia Yuanchun will come back later.

Jiang Yan and Yuanchun didn't meet much, they just met a few times when they went to Rongguo Mansion, and all the words they said did not exceed ten sentences. Now he is glad that he was transferred from the capital before Jia Yuanchun's visit.

You must know that the Jia family's last glory was when Yuanchun was visiting relatives in memory, and then it became worse day by day, and gradually became the appearance of final decline. Now it is best for him to stay away from the place of right and wrong.

"Master, this Rongguo Mansion is too ostentatious, isn't it? Is there something wrong?" asked the servant next to Jiang Yan.

Before Jiang Yan could answer, a man in his 40s among the crowd said, "It's normal for a concubine to be a little ostentatious. If my daughter enters the palace and becomes a concubine, I will definitely be more ostentatious than this."

What this man said may be what more people think. Once you are elected to the king's side, you will be full of glory afterwards. After all, there are only a few people who can clearly see whether those beautiful flowers have thorns when they are blooming.

The current emperor is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a few years ago. Before that, he was very displeased with the sons of those wealthy families. In the past few years, he has become the emperor, but it has become much more dull, but Jiang Yan has no doubts about his plan to clean up.

It's just because the location is different, the pattern you see is different, and you know how to solve the problem in a more peaceful way. After all, you have to consider the overall situation. Several families that have been in the court for hundreds of years The branches and leaves are complicated, so it is not suitable to cut the mess with a sharp knife.

Jiang Yan also took advantage of this situation to escape. He was dispatched at the same level, and being an official outside was considered to have secretly lowered his rights. He was not a person who was greedy for power. Wang Ziteng is alone, he is more used to holding the initiative by himself.

These years he has been diligent and conscientious, and he has never made any mistakes. Even if the Jia family is defeated by the foreign transfer, it is estimated that he will not be implicated. Wang Xifeng is no longer a member of the Wang family in theory.

Chen Ling has been the magistrate of Jinling since he won Tanhua, and his achievements have been mediocre in the past few years. Jiang Yan guessed that he didn't want to be promoted, and staying in Jinling at this time is a kind of safety.

And as long as the Chen family is fine, Wang Xifeng will not be harmed. In the past few years, a pair of children have been born one after another, and there will never be a tragic death in prison as in memory, and finally dragged out by a roll of straw mats. The scene of the burial.

Wang Xifeng also knew about Jiang Yan's transfer from the capital. He originally thought that if they were closer to Jinling, the siblings could meet at any time, but he never thought that Jiang Yan was transferred to the northwest, which happened to be in the same direction as Jinling. Contacted by letter, and it was even more inconvenient than in the capital.

For this, Wang Xifeng could only sigh deeply. The world is unpredictable. Most of her life is going well now, and she can't ask for so much. Anyway, the friendship between their brother and sister will not be estranged because of the distance.

However, at this moment, Chen Ling told Wang Xifeng something that he had been thinking about for a long time, and he felt that this was an opportunity.

"Are you going to resign?" Wang Xifeng was surprised, but it also fulfilled the guess in her heart. She knew that Chen Ling was not happy in the officialdom these few years, and there were many things that didn't go well, so she told her some things when she came back.

Chen Ling nodded seriously, "Don't worry, lady, even if I resign, I can still start a business to support the three of you, grandparents, parents, and father-in-law. I really can do all of them."

"I don't doubt your ability. If you want to resign, you can go. You are not stupid. Instead of wasting your life in the officialdom, it is better to go to a place where you are comfortable."

Chen Shao was in business, and Chen Ling had been fascinated by it since he was a child. Coupled with his intelligence, he had a great advantage in the business field. On the contrary, he didn't know much about the set of things in the official world. Over the past few years, he gradually He found a way out, but he didn't want to follow the trend.

Now that his wife supports him, Chen Ling has relaxed a lot, but he knows that his father's test is still very sad.

In the past few years, he has been an official, and his father has always been proud of him. He looks a lot younger. After all, no one in their ancestors has ever been able to take the imperial examination to an official career. Now he has resigned and returned to businessman , it can be said that there is no difference from before.

Wang Xifeng didn't know what Chen Ling told Chen Shao. Anyway, their father and son stayed in the room for more than two hours. When they came out, Chen Ling was limping. When he returned to the room, he saw purple, blue, red and swollen knees.

"Eunuch punished you to kneel?"

"Kneeling for more than an hour, it's worth it to be an official for a lifetime." Chen Ling said with a smile, he didn't seem to feel much pain from that appearance.

Wang Xifeng patted his knee angrily, causing Chen Ling to cry out in pain.

"Do you still know it hurts? I thought you didn't know? You laughed so presumptuously when you were punished to kneel down. Let your father-in-law know that you are stupid." Wang Xifeng said it anyway, but she still went to get some ointment to apply to him. .

"The last time my son fell from the tree, there is still some ointment left, so I won't ask the doctor to make it up for you." Although there is only one bottom of the bottle left, the effect is very good, promoting blood circulation and removing stasis. A person like Chen Ling It will be fine at night.

Chen Ling said with a smile, "Miss, you don't need to be so frugal, your husband and I can do business, don't worry about money."

"Who's worried about money? Even if you don't know how to do business, I can afford you and those two children. I love the medicinal materials. The top-quality medicinal materials sent by my brother are hard to come by."

As Wang Xifeng said, he blew on the place where the ointment was applied, and Chen Ling only felt a burst of coolness and comfort, "That should be saved, the fourth brother's good things can't be obtained casually."

"That's it, wipe it again tomorrow and it will be gone, and your leg will be fine." Wang Xifeng threw the almost empty medicine bottle into Chen Ling's arms.

Chen Ling is no longer an official, and Wang Xifeng also saves a lot of trouble. At least he doesn't have to give and receive gifts to those officials' homes during the New Year's Eve. Those things are already cumbersome. There is no need to think about resigning now, and she is also relaxed.

Jiang Yan came to the northwest. Two days before he officially took office, Wang Ziteng passed by here and met him.

Over the years, Wang Ziteng's main concern has been the affairs of the Jia family, but this time what he told Jiang Yan was that he had given up making changes to the Jia family, and told Jiang Yan to take good care of his own family, and be careful not to let something happen to the family during this period of time. good.

"Does Uncle know something?" He hadn't completely given up when he met Wang Ziteng a few months ago, but now his attitude is so firm, he must have discovered something.

Prince Teng sighed, "There are some things that you may not know about in Beijing for many years. Jia Zhen in Ningguo Mansion has a lot of dirty things. If I didn't ask about it on purpose, I'm afraid I wouldn't know about it."

Jia Zhen?The one who picks up ashes with his daughter-in-law?

The dirty thing that Wang Ziteng mentioned should be referring to this one, "How could Uncle think of investigating Ningguo Mansion?"

"I heard some rumors by chance, so I asked someone to check them out. I didn't expect to find out these things." Maybe he went to check those things just to find a reason for himself to give up on them.

Wang Ziteng felt ashamed of his small thoughts, but he was too tired. The Jia family was already like a piece of rotten wood.

"You may not know it yet. I was named a cabinet minister just two days ago, and I will go to the capital to face the Holy Spirit in a few days. But what do you think is a good thing when something like this happens now?"

The Jia family is already a dead tree, but at this time, Jia Yuanchun, who has become an imperial concubine, appears. He thinks that the constraints on the members of the royal family are still in place, but the emperor also rewarded him. He doesn't know if it is with Jia Yuanchun. For the same reason, or the opposite reason.

But all ambitious courtiers hope to be appreciated by the emperor. He hopes it is the opposite of Yuan Chun's reason, but if it is the same, he has no choice but to obey the fate.

Obey the order of the emperor, the king is the guide for the ministers, and the ministers have to die if the king wants to die.

Jiang Yan is not as pessimistic as Wang Ziteng. He has seen what Wang Ziteng has done these years and knows that he has worked extremely hard. The emperor wants to destroy the arrogance of the family, but he is not a foolish king who will increase the crimes he wants to impose on capable ministers.

But at the same time, Jiang Yan knew that no matter what he said now, he could not change Wang Ziteng's mood of being imprisoned, so he could only try to say some comforting words.

Now Wang Ziteng and Rongguo Mansion seem to be two extremes, one is too pessimistic, the other is too optimistic, both parties are deeply involved in it, unable to see the whole thing completely.

At this time, Jiang Yan only hoped that Wang Ziteng's body could continue to persevere until the Jia family really fell down completely, and he could truly relax when he saw that the emperor did not affect him.

In fact, Wang Ziteng knew that he might be thinking pessimistically, but he had to think about it this way. It was the Jia family that surprised him too much, not only the case of Jia Zhen in Ningguo Mansion, but also others.

After all, what is his relationship with the Ningguo Mansion? His own sister married the Rongguo Mansion, but it was during this investigation that he discovered that the original intelligent and pleasant sister in his memory had changed beyond recognition, as if the back house had swallowed her. His temperament, which should belong to a human being, became so ordinary that he didn't know him anymore.

If it wasn't for the fact that the person who went was his confidant, he really would have doubted whether those things were framed by others, because the maid and Baoyu said a few more words and forced the maid to jump into the well, even the maids in the aristocratic family signed It's a life contract, but that's also a fresh life.

Wang Ziteng didn't know if his health was getting worse, but on the contrary, he began to cherish life even more. It's a pity that the maid's life happened to be lost because of this.

In addition to his sister, there is also Jia She from the Rongguo Mansion, a lecherous person, who is even worse than his younger brother, Wang Zisheng. The time is all your love and I wish, and Wang Zisheng doesn't care about everything else except female sex, but Jia She pursues the pleasure brought by power while being female, likes to use power to force, and even makes a scene because of a fan killed.

Wang Ziteng couldn't help but think about everything. He went to the capital and thought about it all the way. He couldn't bear it and fell ill, but fortunately he persisted in the capital.

The people sent by Jiang Yan came back and said that Wang Ziteng's body was much better after being seen by the imperial doctor in the capital. Jiang Yan believed in the imperial doctor's medical skills, but I am afraid that there is a problem with the emperor's attitude towards Wang Ziteng.

Before, because of the distance, I always speculated about the holy will, but now I feel it personally, the experience is more real, and naturally I feel at ease.

At the same time, Jiang Yan was relieved a lot. Anyway, he still didn't want Wang Ziteng to worry too much and die because of this kind of thing. It was too unworthy for the sake of the Jia family.

Wang Xifeng did not write to Jiang Yan about Chen Ling's resignation, but Chen Ling went to the northwest to do business and told Jiang Yan in person.

"Fourth brother, don't worry, I will definitely be able to do a good job in business. Don't worry about my wife and the three of them's living problems. I will tell you that I am here this time..."

Chen Ling and Jiang Yan talked eloquently about his trip to the Northwest. Seeing his appearance full of confidence, Jiang Yan also believed that he could do it. After all, when Chen Ling was an official, he had never been so refreshed. .

Chen Ling talked with Jiang Yan for more than an hour, and almost told everything about his visit this time, including the secrets of their Chen family's business, and I don't know if he was careless or he was not prepared for Jiang Yan.

"Fourth brother, you have been in the officialdom for so many years, you must have encountered that kind of thing." After talking about the business, Chen Ling looked at Jiang Yan curiously and asked.

"Of course there is." Jiang Yan smiled mysteriously, "But you are not in the officialdom now, and you can't use it if I tell you."

"I really don't need it. Anyway, I don't plan to take an official career anymore. When my son grows up, I don't want him to take an official career. It's too troublesome. There are only so many intrigues in a small government office. There must be more, fourth brother, you don't know, so I resigned from office some time ago..."

Chen Ling continued to talk to Jiang Yan about all the "strange" things he had encountered in the officialdom. Of course, those things seemed weird to him, but in Jiang Yan's view, they happened every day.

He didn't have any secrets, he just pretended to be stupid and pretended to be stupid, and ignored him and didn't participate, otherwise he wouldn't have been a fourth-rank official for nearly ten years and never seen a promotion.
