Jia Cong, the concubine who crossed the Red Chamber

The next day, it was the Asahi.

The rule of sealing the dynasty is one dynasty every ten days, which is a great dynasty in the common saying.The scale of the dynasty is quite large, and all civil and military officials who are from the fifth rank or above must go to the court.Those above the third rank can enter the hall to see the driver, while those below the third rank can only wait outside the hall, and the internal officials who pass the song are responsible for conveying the situation inside the hall.

However, today's sage is following the path of a wise and benevolent monarch, striving for a reputation that lasts through the ages, and is very diligent in governing.In addition to the big court, there are also small courts, which are held every day.Only officials above the third rank can participate in the Xiaochao.

Jia Amnesty is the title of first-class general, which belongs to the super rank, so of course he can enter the court.He purposely waited for this big court, because he liked the crowd and wanted to make things big.

Jia Amnesty has two sets of overalls, one is a noble uniform and the other is a royal uniform.Jubilee clothes are worn on important occasions, such as New Year's greetings and ancestor worship, which represent Jia She's title.The court clothes are what he wears every day when he goes to court. This is a standard work clothes, which represents his grade and errands.

In the early morning of this day, Jia Amnesty did not follow the usual practice of wearing court clothes to go to the court, but wore a royal dress with heavy make-up.Mrs. Xing helped Jia She to tidy up her clothes, and asked, "Master, have you contacted everyone? If things don't work out, it will be self-defeating, which is not good."

Jia She said: "You are the most successful in normal days, why don't you even understand this now? Who is the Lord Long Live? He is most from the Ming Dynasty. If I really contacted everywhere and was known by the Lord Long Live, I would not Beautiful. I only know Brother Zhen and Brother Ziteng, that's enough. The four big families of King Jiashi and Xue have mutual in-laws on weekdays, and they all hold great power. Long live God can't wait for us to have troubles among ourselves. Brother Zhen and Ziteng, Shijia and Xuejiading are standing behind the old lady and the second child, and the two sides are making trouble, which is exactly what Long Live Lord wants."

Mrs. Xing just lowered her head and smiled, with a look of admiration on her face, she said: "Master knows a lot, no matter how successful I am, it's just a trivial matter in the house, how can I be as knowledgeable as my master?"

Jia Amnesty benefited from his heart, adjusted his mood, and prepared to go to court immediately.

In the early morning, Jia Amnesty stood in the second row from the left according to his rank.As soon as Jia Amnesty appeared, everyone noticed his distinctive royal uniform, and they all knew that something had happened, so they didn't dare to ask more questions.

The emperor naturally saw it too, thinking of what he knew about the Jia family, he sighed inwardly and put down his mind for the time being.After more than an hour, everyone reported the important events as usual, and the emperor saw that no one was playing, so he asked, "Why did Jia Qing come here today wearing a noble uniform?"

Hearing this, Jia She's eyes turned red suddenly, he took a step forward and knelt down on the ground, weeping, "Report to Lord Long Live, I am sorry for Yulu, who is nearly forty years old and has accomplished nothing. I am ashamed of God's grace. As a minister, I am doing nothing. As a son, the minister is dull and incompetent, unable to entertain his relatives with colorful clothes; as a father..." Jia Amnesty burst into tears when he said this, "As a father, the minister can't even protect his own son! I know that I am stupid and incompetent, so I would like to resign from the rank of first-class general and pass on the title to my eldest son, Jia Lian. I would like to take my wife to farm and weaving, and end the rest of my life!"

The emperor was shocked, isn't it, what happened to the Jia family?Has it all gotten to this point?Sui said: "Why did Jia Qing say this? I have been with you for decades. If you have any difficulties, I will make the decision for you."

Naturally, Jia Amnesty couldn't sue his younger brother, so he just cried: "I don't have..." Before he finished speaking, he was already sobbing.

At this time Jia Zhen rushed out, Jia Zhen's hereditary third-rank General Wei Lie, although the title is not as good as Jia She, but he is also a super rank, not far from Jia She.Seeing Jia Amnesty like this at this time, he naturally knelt down.He only supported Jia She, and cried: "Uncle, don't say such a thing, don't worry, uncle, I will treat Brother Cong as much as my own younger brother in the future!" Before they finished speaking, the two cried together.

The emperor sat high above, looking at the two people crying like tears, his face was covered with black lines.Ah!The Jia family really has a skill passed down from generation to generation, no matter men or women, they all have a knack for crying.Think back to when the Taizu Emperor founded the country, the two brothers Ning Rong and the two brothers followed the Taizu to conquer the world.Once, the two took Emperor Taizu to escape from the enemy's pursuit. Emperor Taizu was seriously injured and could not move. These two bold people bought a coffin, crying "Dad, you died so badly" one by one.Dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, crying terribly, when the enemy was inspecting the defense, he was forced to lie to him.The official historian called it "the merit of saving the family through crying", and the crying of the Jia family man has also become a recognized killer.Therefore, when the present Long Live Lord sees the Jia man crying miserably, his heart shudders.

The history of men from the Jia family crying bitterly is comparable to that of the famous Uncle Liu Huang in history.Therefore, the courtiers couldn't help but shift their minds when they saw the attitude of the successors of Jia She and Jia Zhenning and Rong's two mansions.

Seeing that the two were crying with sincerity, Lord Long Live also pretended to be anxious, and asked: "Ai Qing must have been wronged, you can rest assured that I will make the decision for you!"

Jia She was still choked up and speechless when she heard the words, but it was Jia Zhen who abandoned Jia She, knelt two steps forward, fell on the ground, and sobbed: "Reporting to Long Live Lord, this matter is really a family scandal that cannot be publicized. , and it involves the uncle’s blood relatives, so it’s not easy for the uncle to speak. Uncle can’t say, but as the head of the Jia family, the servant knows a thing or two.”

Long live said: "Oh? Then you can talk about it."

Only now did Jia Zhen speak slowly.Ever since Jia Amnesty was stolen from the main hall by his younger brother for decades, he could only dwell in a corner of the garden all day long, crying until the husband and wife could not be the masters of their own house, and the favored son was not as decent as the maid of the second room, cry again The youngest son was starved to death and suffered all kinds of abuse after he was away from the house for less than three days.

Jia Zhen finished crying, but before the emperor could speak, the Shijia brothers stood up quickly and said, "Long live Lord, don't listen to his one-sided words. The matter of abusing your nephew is just a lie. What's the matter with the second wife? As for stealing Rongxi Hall is even more nonsense. For the convenience of going to court every morning, Jia Enhou asked for his order to live alone, and even spent all the financial resources of the mansion on the street to build a magnificent courtyard, but now he bites back! Let’s talk about the housekeeper’s decision. The eldest wife is only from a seventh-rank official family, and has never dealt with major affairs, how can He De be a housekeeper?"

After the Shi family brothers finished speaking, Jia Zhen spit immediately: "Bah! This is what Master Shihou can say! Let's not talk about why uncle lives in the garden, and how much does it cost our Jia family to build a yard? How did Mr. Shi know? Young and old Such things as respectability and inferiority, the rules of heaven and earth are naturally not understood by people like Master Shi who snatched his elder brother's title and abused his brother's orphan! Master Shi should treat younger sister Shi less harshly. I heard that the poor parent died early. Children, have become your family's needleworkers!"

After Jia Zhen finished speaking, Qin Lang knelt down before the brothers of the Shi family could refute, and said, "If you go back to the Lord Long Live, I also have something to say. Previously, the Qin family and the Jia family were related by marriage, so I also know a little about the Jia family's affairs. One or two. Master Shi Hou said that the current status of the eldest wife is not enough, dare to ask Lord Shi Hou, what rank is your wife? The Xing family is the first-class general's wife, and the first-rank imperial order from the emperor. This status is not enough, is it two? A wife is enough? Does Master Shi think that Lord Long Live is not as good as Master Hou?"

The Shijia brothers, when they heard this, how could they stand still, and they knelt down to plead guilty.Before he could speak, the emperor said: "That's enough, Jia Qing, I know your grievances, and you don't have to resign from this title. As long as you don't commit the crime of confiscating your family and exterminating your family in the future, this title must belong to your son, and no one can take it away." Let's go." Jia Amnesty hurriedly knelt down to thank Shengen.

The emperor called Wang Ziteng's name again, and said: "Wang Qing, you are serving as the governor of the capital, and it is most appropriate for you to investigate this matter. Although the sinner Wang is your sister, you and Jia Qing are also in-laws. They are all close relatives, so there will be no bias."

Come on, when the Shijia brothers heard this, their eyes went dark.Don't you understand the meaning of Long Live Lord's words?Before the investigation was clear, the words "Sinner Wang" had already come out.As long as Wang Ziteng's brain is not kicked by a donkey, he will definitely be on Jia Amnesty's side.The two thought a lot in their hearts, winked at each other, and prepared to go back and tell Jiamu.

After the court disbanded, the emperor specially asked people to reward Jia She with two dishes of fruit in public to show his appeasement.Hundreds of officials who have not yet dispersed.Seeing this, they all understood, and the censors gave each other a secret sign, all rolled up their sleeves and waited to go back to collect evidence, and scolded the second master of Rongguo Mansion for being unfaithful, filial, benevolent, and righteous!
