[Red Mansion] The third master of jade-like stone treasures

Bao Cong thought a lot, but he didn't expect that Jia Zheng was carried back to the capital while lying down.

After he received the imperial decree to be dismissed and investigated in Jiangxi, he vomited blood and fainted, and then fell into a coma.

Originally, Emperor Zhao ordered him to be taken directly to the prison, waiting to be released.But with Jia Zheng's half-dead appearance, and Jia's mother wearing imperial formal attire, she went to the palace to intercede in person when she was old, so Emperor Zhao allowed Jia Zheng to go home temporarily to recuperate.

Lai Da also came back with Jia Zheng.

"...Jiangxi Liangdao sells extra stale grain every year. It's a private practice in previous years. It's a tacit understanding to sell more and sell less. If Mr. Zheng, a newcomer, objects, Isn't it obvious that you are against everyone? So the master agreed with the Shangguan and agreed to sell the grain. Anyway, everyone sells the grain together, and the silver is also shared by everyone...Who would have thought that the Yellow River flooded this year, and the Holy One would adjust the relief grain? ?”

Lai Da knelt on the ground, crying with snot and tears.

"The leftover relief food was put in the granary, and the master was in charge of taking care of it. But for some reason, it was all gone within a day. The master asked someone to check it at that time, but nothing was found."

"Later, imperial envoys came from Beijing to investigate the matter, and those Jiangxi officials all said the same thing, slandering that Mr. Zheng sold it privately. The conscience of heaven and earth, the villain follows the master day and night, and I know everything about the master. , he didn’t sell the leftovers in private!”

Lai Da spoke, took a breath, suddenly thought of something, and said angrily: "The villain has heard a news. Some people say that the master has handed over a list and betrayed some people. Those people secretly formed a partnership to I don't know if it's true or not to take revenge on Mr. Zheng..."

After listening to Lai Da's words, Bao Cong almost slumped on the chair, stupid!

No wonder Jia Zheng went to Jiangxi Liangdao, but within a year and a half he got into such a catastrophe!

I'm afraid Jia Zheng was just a little shrimp following the crowd in the matter of selling grain.

But because he stole the list from Jia Zheng and gave it to Emperor Zhao, Emperor Zhao secretly punished some people on the list, and those people thought that Jia Zheng had betrayed them, so they blamed Jia Zheng for selling grain. I want to take this opportunity to kill Jia Zheng...

When he stole the list and handed it over to Emperor Zhao, how could he have imagined that today it would bring disaster to the Jia family again?

Jia Zheng was involved, but most of the charges were caused by submitting the list...

Bao Cong sighed, not knowing how to blame Jia Zheng for being involved in selling grain.

After returning home from the palace, Jia's mother first visited Jia Zheng who was unconscious, and then returned to her yard, where she also fell ill.

The members of Jia's family and their relatives only visited Jia's mother and Jia Zheng every day, and even Wang Xifeng struggled to get out of bed to visit once.

For seven or eight days in a row, both mother and son lay in bed in a dazed state, and it was unknown who was more seriously ill.

Baocong begged the imperial doctor Wang to see him.

After seeing Jia Mu, Royal Doctor Wang looked heavy and shook his head and said, "Madam won't last long, let's prepare for the funeral earlier."

After hearing this, everyone in Jia's residence felt as if they heard a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and Mrs. Jia She, Jia Lianxing's complexion was particularly pale.

They knew very well in their hearts that in fact, the only ones in the family who could really support the Rongguo Mansion were Jia Mu and Yuan Chun.

Now, although Yuan Chun has been demoted to a nobleman, she is still Emperor Zhao's concubine anyway.But seriously, she is considered the glory of the second wife.

And Jia Mu is the entire Rongguo Mansion and the glory of the entire Jia family.

If Jia's mother left at this time, most of the umbrella of their eldest family would be gone!

But no matter how Jia Amnesty and the others chanted Buddhist scriptures and prayed, Jia Mu's body still couldn't stand it anymore.

Bao Cong could only keep silent, and took Lin Daiyu back to Rongguo Mansion to live temporarily, so that he could visit Jia Mu and Jia Zheng.

On this day, Yuanyang was wiping tears while boiling medicine for Jiamu with a small stove outside.Suddenly hearing Jiamu's weak voice, he hurriedly handed the fan to the turtle, and went into the house to have a look.

On the bed, Mother Jia half-opened her eyes and looked out with her cloudy eyes sideways. When she saw the mandarin ducks rushing in, she smiled tiredly.

"Scared you, didn't you?" Mother Jia panted, looking into Yuanyang's eyes, which were red and swollen, obviously crying a lot.

Yuanyang shook her head and smiled at Jiamu: "The old lady is awake, you will recover soon, I won't be afraid."

Mother Jia twitched the corners of her mouth wearily, "Don't be afraid, I, I'm fine!" She took a breath and asked, "How's the second child?"

Yuanyang's heart skipped a beat, his mouth opened, and he didn't know what to say.

Jia Zheng is still in a coma, but if Jia's mother hears such news, will her health be worse if she is stimulated?

Although Royal Physician Wang said that Mother Jia has not many days left...

Jiamu and Yuanyang have been together day and night for more than ten years, and with just one look from Yuanyang, she knows something is wrong.

At this moment, she saw that Yuanyang's complexion was not good, and she hesitated, so she knew that Jia Zheng's situation was not good.

So, Mother Jia stopped asking about the mandarin ducks, and just looked at the window beside the bed. The window was open and a ray of warm sunlight came in from outside.

Half of October is already over, the sun is good today, look at the light and shadow, guess it is noon, right?

Jiamu watched the sun intently for a while, then ordered Yuanyang to help her get up and get dressed, and said she wanted to eat.

Yuanyang was taken aback at first, and she was terrified, afraid that Jia Mu would return to her former glory!

Seeing her fear, Jiamu comforted her with a smile again: "Don't be afraid, I will have to support the family with my old bones. I have to eat enough and take care of my body to be strong."

After Yuanyang heard this, she looked at Jia Mu's complexion, and it seemed that she was much better than lying on the bed.

She felt much more relieved, and as usual, she helped Jia Mu to dress and wash, and ordered the kitchen to make some easily digestible food like millet porridge.

Before the food was delivered from the kitchen, a lot of people came to Jia Mu's yard.

Mother Jia sat in the lobby and took a closer look. Except for Jia Zheng and Wang Xifeng, everyone in the Rongguo Mansion was present.

Mrs. Wang was present, so Mother Jia first asked Jia Zheng who was looking after him.

Mrs. Wang wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes twice with a handkerchief, and said with a forced smile: "Aunt Zhao is waiting in front of you, and the master also woke up the day before yesterday, and the doctor Wang said that he is already better than before."

Mother Jia nodded in relief, and then asked Jia Lian, "Feng'er is still lying on the bed? Is your body still not feeling well?"

Jia Lian hurried forward and said, "Her body is good and bad. The doctor said it's best to let her rest on the bed. If the ancestor misses her, shall I call her?"

Jia Mu hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Let her take care of her, why bother her. When I finish my lunch, I'll go and see her myself."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in Jia's residence was stunned, and they looked at Jia's mother secretly.

Doctor Wang said that Jia's mother was very ill and had only a few days to live.But today I saw that Jia Mu was in good spirits, not only able to get up and eat, but also said that she was going to see Wang Xifeng...

Jia Amnesty couldn't help muttering in his heart, could it be that Royal Physician Wang was not skilled in medicine and made a wrong diagnosis?

Yes Yes Yes!It must be so!

The old lady has always been in good health. When she was seriously ill in the past, when was she not cured again?

This time to rest for a while, I will definitely get better as before!

The more Jia Amnesty thought about it in his heart, the more he felt it was true, so he scolded Royal Physician Wang secretly, saying that this quack doctor misunderstood others and said that Jia Mu had a few days to live, it was bullshit!

Seeing that Jia's mother is hopeful to get better, most of the fears in Jia Amnesty's heart dissipated, and he began to think about the affairs of the house again.

Although Jia's mother can get better this time, after all, she is old and there will always be a day to go.She doesn't know how much money is left in her private house, and it's all being held by the little bitch Yuanyang, so she should think of a way to make her obedient and obedient...

The second child has committed a serious crime this time, and I don't know if it will implicate the family. The public money is gone, and the second room really should take out some silver taels to make amends...

Bao Cong looked at Jia Mu's expression and saw that she seemed to be really much better, and finally he was relieved from the heavy mood of the past few days.

Lin Daiyu didn't know how many times she cried because of Jia's mother's illness, but now seeing that Jia's mother is better, she was so happy that she shed tears.

Mother Jia used to feel sorry for Lin Daiyu who always cried, so she hurriedly called her to come forward, wiped her tears herself, and comforted her with a smile: "We're already married, why are you still so childish? You cry so easily?"

Lin Daiyu smiled, and coquettishly said to Jia Mu: "No matter how old I am, I am still a child in front of my ancestors."

When Jia Mu heard this, she put her arms around Lin Daiyu and smiled heartily, and said to Bao Cong, "I love Yu'er the most since you were young. If you don't treasure her in the future, I will beat you!"

What he said, it seemed that the two brothers stood back in Jia Mu's heart.

Although it wasn't the truth, no one present corrected Jia's mother ignorantly.

Bao Cong's heart was heavy, but he still answered Jia's mother's words with a smile.

Tortoise came in and sent word that the meal was ready and everyone was invited to eat.

Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang supported Jia Mu to the dining room, and everyone else followed.

On the big round table, in addition to the millet porridge that Jia Mu wanted to eat was placed on the main table, there was also a large table full of vegetables.

"Sit down, let's eat together!" Mother Jia happily sat down on the main seat, then pulled Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing, and told them to sit down, "It's been a long time since our family had a meal together. Well, today, people are complete."

Except for those who are married and those who are sick, everyone is here.

Seeing that Jia Mu was happy, they didn't refuse. They sat down to eat together, talked and laughed, and made Jia Mu happy.

After lunch, Mother Jia went to see Wang Xifeng first, then sat in Jia Zheng's room for half a day, and returned to her yard at night.

In the evening, the family still ate together, and everyone made an appointment, tacitly.

The next day, everyone went to pay their respects and had breakfast with Jiamu.

And Jia's mother's day-to-day activities are to eat and stay in a daze in Jia Zheng's room.

As if sensing Jia's mother's love for her son, after two days, Jia Zheng also woke up.

It's just that people are still confused and can't speak.

"Second master's symptoms, I'm afraid I can only lie in bed to recuperate in the future. If you can still talk, you need to take a few medicines to see the situation, and then the old man will be able to judge..." Doctor Wang is outside, lowering his voice. He raised his voice and talked to Jia Mu.

Mother Jia accepted the news calmly, without much sadness.

Within two days, Jia Zheng was still speechless, but the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment brought seven or eight officers and soldiers to the door, and wanted to take Jia Zheng back for interrogation.

Naturally, Mother Jia refused to stop her and said, "My son is lying on the bed so sick that he can't speak. How can you interrogate him when you take him back?"

The Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Justice had no choice but to say: "I am only acting on orders. Originally, Jia Zheng should be sent to the prison after returning to Beijing. Now the Holy Majesty has allowed him to rest at home for a few days. It is a kindness from God. Now that he is awake, he must be sent back to the prison." .”

"Even if you can't interrogate, you should be in the prison. After I find out the truth of the matter and report it to the Holy Majesty, I will wait and see what happens!"

"No! My son is seriously ill. Isn't it just to let him wait to die when he goes to prison?" Jiamu leaned on her crutches and knocked hard on the stone floor a few times.

Mrs. Wang supported Jiamu, and Baoyu and Baocong were all around to protect her.

Jia Mu is so powerful that she blocks the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and will not give in at all!

If Jia Zheng goes to prison at this time, Bao Cong can't guarantee that he will come back alive.At this time, although he did not agree with Jiamu's approach, he really couldn't stop Jiamu.

Jiangxi is too far away, and the people he sent to Jiangxi privately have not sent back any evidence.What reason is there for Jia Zheng not to go to prison?

So, he could only watch the stalemate between the two sides, he clenched his fists, his mind was spinning rapidly, the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't think of a solution.

The minister of the Ministry of punishment had no choice but to raise the sword in his hand and said loudly: "This is the Shangfang sword given to me by the holy majesty. Seeing this sword is like seeing the holy majesty!"

As soon as these words came out, no matter if it was everyone in Jia's mansion or the Ministry of Punishment, they all knelt down.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice sighed, looked at Jia Mu who was trembling on the ground and said, "Old Madam, I didn't want to take out this sword at first, it's really a sacred fate!"

Mother Jia only knelt for a while, and was about to collapse on the ground. Mrs. Wang and Yuanyang hurriedly asked her to lean on her body for support.

"Okay! Okay, you take him away, I don't believe my son has committed a serious crime." Jiamu almost shouted out, "If my son dies in prison, I will give up my son. Old life, I have to report to the heavens and ask for an explanation!"

Hearing this, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment did not feel the fear of being threatened. He just shook his head and waved his hand to let the officers and soldiers behind him break into the room and escort Jia Zheng away.

Bao Cong hurried forward and helped Mrs. Jiamu and Wang up to prevent them from being hit and injured.

Unexpectedly, during the chaos, Baoyu suddenly rushed over to block the door of the house, and shouted tremblingly: "I'll go!"

Baocong turned his head slowly, only to see Baoyu's face pale and trembling all over.

He was obviously terribly afraid, but he still gritted his teeth and repeated: "Father is seriously ill, I will go for him."
