The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman

If the Ningguo Mansion is a big treason, then the Rongguo Mansion has a lot of messy and trivial things. It stands to reason that a family like this should keep some money in the treasury every year for insurance and future generations.

For example, the Lin family has as little as [-] yuan and as many as [-] yuan a year.Accumulated over the years, there is a lot of cash in circulation.Otherwise, when the Lin family married daughters and daughters-in-law one after another, money might be tight.

But what is strange is that the preparation of the big house is the same as that of other aristocratic families, there is no difference, there is a lot of cash, and there are many shops and villages.But there is almost no money in the second room warehouse. Not only is there no money, there are not many shops and villages, but there are a lot of bulky items that are not easy to get rid of, and there are boxes of pawn tickets. have.

But this does not mean that the Jia family is poor. The private houses of each of the Jia family are very impressive. Even a decent maid can find some good-looking gold and silver jewelry in the box, and there are quite a few When the money comes out, there are even some good things that ordinary masters don't need.

The first place to check is Xue Baochai's residence.The place where Xue Baochai lived was specially named by Emperor Xianguang.There were twenty or so boxes, half of which were filled with antique jade wares, worth more than 20 silver, and the other half were cash silver, totaling 8 to [-] taels.The arrangement is messy, it seems to be hastily arranged, but the important thing is that there is the mark of the Xue family on the box.

The most jaw-dropping thing is that nearly twenty boxes of belongings were confiscated from Mrs. Wang's room. It is said that Xue Baochai and Mrs. Wang's worthy mother-in-law also found a wealth of things in her room, and some secret marks can be seen on it. Many people have seen it, it is the property of Zhen's family, after seeing this, even if they have the intention to steal it, they dare not do it casually.

What happened to the Zhen family back then.They still remember a little bit. It is true that many belongings are not accounted for. Now it seems that they can barely match the number. Not much, but the previous things should be right.

Evidence of Jia's family taking the lawsuit and extorting money was also found. It was found from Mrs. Wang's companion Wang Xing's house.Mrs. Wang is quite cautious, she didn't do it herself, but she was charged with hiding stolen goods.It was enough for her.

Mrs. Wang turned pale immediately.

Before she could plead guilty, her private money was confiscated, totaling more than [-] yuan.Along with it, there was also a box of loan deeds with high interest and a large number.Astonishing.The iron law of this dynasty has always severely punished those who exploited heavily.

Mrs. Wang knew that the situation was over, so she fainted immediately.

These few plagiarists didn't want to have such matters, and they originally focused on "investigation".Now I really have to copy it.At the end of the copying, those copying officials could not hold back their feet. They even copied Mantou Temple and Tiekan Temple.

But don't want to.It really happened.

It turns out that Mantou Temple was originally called Shuiyue Temple, and like Tiekan Temple, it is also the family temple of Jia's family, and it also leads the worship of Jia's house.And it was Jia Qin who was in charge of this matter.The soldiers who were sent were unwilling to do so, after all, this temple was no more lucrative than other places.But I didn't expect to copy "Zong Er" too-the wind and the moon are boundless.

Zhitong, the abbot of the Mantou Nunnery, had a kind face and a dark heart, and he kidnapped a few pretty little nuns to do his work.She took the opportunity to save some money for sesame oil.In the past, there was a person whose intelligence was not clear to Qin Zhong, and it is difficult for the rest of them to be innocent.

Besides, Jia Qin is not a steady person.Walking around the temple every three days, he hooked up with two little nuns in the temple.Jia Qin often gave Zhitong some money, but Zhitong turned a blind eye and ignored them.

When the soldiers ran into the gate, they were caught right...

After all this, count your belongings.This big house in the Rong Mansion is fairly normal. Although the masters are rich, the public house still has much more money than the private house.But the second bedroom's father-in-law doesn't have much money, but the mistress Wang's wealth is rich, and there is a box of usurious borrowing notes.

The officials who copied did not dare to be negligent, and hurriedly reported it to the emperor. Emperor Xianguang was furious, and everyone in Jia's mansion was immediately taken down. It really changed from inspection to copying.

Therefore, Jiajia Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion were searched inside and out, even the place where Aunt Zhao lived was not spared.Fortunately, neither Mrs. An nor Aunt Zhao could touch the outside, so nothing was found in their room.

Being detained together with a group of female relatives, listening to those sergeants swearing, saying that there is not much money, and there are a lot of IOUs, Mrs. Xing's heart tightened. Fortunately, when Jia She thoroughly checked her house, Wang Find out what Madam framed her.Otherwise, wouldn't the big house be responsible for these crimes now? Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Xing hated Mrs. Wang to death!

It is difficult for the Jia family to stand up now. Even if the king of Beijing County has some friendship with the Jia family, he can only tell those who come to search the house not to disturb the old lady and be more polite to the female relatives.

However, what is the king of Beijing County? A king with a different surname who has no real power, even if he has some virtuous names among some down-and-out literati, is like Jia Zheng's group of clean-up staff, at Jia Zheng's level, Wouldn't it be better for someone like Shan Pinren to compliment Jia Zheng on how elegant and talented he is?

As for the status of King Beijing in the court, I am afraid that not many ministers can sum it up in one word, saying that he is not valued by the emperor, and he can often invite literati to talk in his own house, and even talk with Feng Ziying and others from the family of military generals. The contacts are close, and the emperor has never been displeased.It is said that he is highly valued, but he has no real power in the court. Even the old concubine Beijing is not often summoned by the queen.

And the most reassuring thing to ignore him is because King Beijing is a king with a different surname.No emperor would be as close as a brother to a king with a different surname.Generally, it is important to prevent it!

Like Prince Zhongshun, so what if he is the biological son and younger brother of Concubine Luogui and Prince Zhongyi who rebelled back then, he will never be seen by the emperor, but he is a serious clan prince. Dare not offend Prince Zhongshun severely.

Back then, Prince Zhongshun sent Chang Shi directly to the Jia family for the sake of Jiang Yuhan!It can also be seen that although he is not liked and trusted by the emperor, he is a serious clan prince after all, and he is not afraid of your Jia family at all.

Although Prince Zhongshun is usually a ridiculous person, greedy for flowers and lust, and not jealous of men and women, but he can't stand that he is the brother of the Holy One. Compared with an outsider county king, he is naturally more stable.

Everyone knew about the crap about Prince Zhongshun and the Jia family back then.Therefore, everyone naturally did not dare to make mistakes in front of Beijing King Shui Rong. Where Shui Rong couldn't see, those sergeants and petty officials who were in charge of ransacking the house were too quick to wipe their hands. ?

The rich family, not to mention the girls in the family, even the little girls who serve the flowers and plants, are not bad in color, at least, like these small officials who can only spend their lives at the bottom, at least their own mother-in-law does not have such a color .

Therefore, although it is not possible to do too much, it is unavoidable to touch a few or something. Some rude ones, seeing the slightly older jewelry on those girls, immediately stretched out their hands to grab it, Because of the earrings on their ears, a few maids were ripped open and dripping with blood. They didn't dare to cry loudly. They could only hold their wounds and sob in a low voice, which made others even more flustered. .

The chaos in Jia's house continued. Except for Jia's mother, who was ordered not to be disturbed by King Beijing Jing, the rest of the masters and servants, big and small, were all locked up.

The ordinary people who once could only look enviously at them riding tall horses and carriages with Zhulun canopy, still pointing outside, watching these distressed people being pushed and shoved by officers and soldiers, one by one, listless, Or weeping and walking forward, the men were sent directly to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, while the women were sent directly to the Iron Kan Temple.

In fact, Fengchao’s prison has women’s prisons, but the case of Jia’s family is a little different. Although Mrs. Wang and Xue Baochai will definitely be sentenced, Mrs. Xing, Second Mistress Lian and Jia’s mother in the big house have no criminal evidence. He still has orders on his body, so naturally he can't be treated like Mrs. Wang Xue Baochai and go to jail directly!

Therefore, these people made a compromise and used the Tiekan Temple, the family temple of the Jia family, as the place where the female family members of the Jia family lived. One is to give them a place to settle down, and the other is to gather them in a known place to prevent them from absconding in fear of crime. .

It can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone...

Although Tiekan Temple is said to be the family temple of the Jia family, the conditions are better than many places.But compared to the previous Jia family, it must be very different.Second Mistress Lian gave the people in the second room a cold look, took Mrs. Xing's hand, and went down to resettle them!

Although I don't know why the emperor raided Jia's house, judging from the results of the raid so far, there is nothing in Dafang that violates laws and regulations.The only thing to worry about is whether Jia Lian has done anything wrong outside.

But Second Mistress Lian turned her head and thought, Jia Lian has been hanging out with the Mei family recently, occasionally going to the Zhang family.Both of these two are experts in protecting their lives wisely, presumably their eldest wife is still implicated by the second wife!

Second Mistress Lian comforted Mrs. Xing, who was terrified, and helped her fall asleep again!I guess lying on the bed, Lian's second grandma doesn't think about any interests now, as long as the people in their eldest room can get through this calamity safely, they are lucky!

Second Mistress Lian was able to accept everything so calmly. Not only did she come out with the same high quality, but also because she had the confidence to believe that their eldest family had done nothing wrong.

And the few people in the second room are not so calm!

Especially Mother Jia...
