Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

Prince Zhonghui suddenly came to help, which was beyond Lin Daiyu's expectation.Lin Chenxi thought that this was Prince Zhonghui's kindness in return for the rewards they sent him from the palace all the way, and it was nothing more than a little effort for him, so he didn't care.But he also knew the dignity of the royal family, and must be well-mannered, so he wrote a letter of thanks very seriously, and asked someone to forward it to Prince Zhonghui, expressing the gratitude of the Lin family.Lin Daiyu frowned and thought for a while, not understanding the intention of this suspected fellow, but guessing now is useless, so she had to put it aside.

Prince Zhonghui began to investigate and deal with the Zhen family that had flourished for decades in the south of the Yangtze River, setting off a stormy sea.He has a noble status and has won the trust of the emperor. This status alone is enough to shock people's hearts.In the few months since he went to the south of the Yangtze River, everyone has seen that Prince Zhonghui is fierce and resolute. Although he came with the emperor's will, it seems that he is not only handling the official affairs assigned by the court, but also makes people feel trembling. To that buried under it, there is a faint hatred for the Zhen family.

Naturally, the Zhen family was unwilling to sit still and tried every means to save themselves.On the one hand, the head of the Zhen family visited and contacted officials at all levels in the south of the Yangtze River, some with lures and requests, some with coercion and threats, establishing offensive and defensive alliances with each other, and preparing to unite to exert pressure on Prince Zhonghui in order to escape disaster; The headed wife and the daughter-in-law hurriedly boarded the boat to Beijing, preparing to ask the Supreme Emperor and Princess Zhen in the palace for help, which was also to avoid disaster.Concubine Zhen is the daughter of the Zhen family, she must do her best to take care of the safety of her mother's family, no matter what, she must ask the emperor to come forward and let him order the emperor to let the Zhen family go.The Zhen family has always worked for the Supreme Emperor, and they have collected a lot of wealth in the south of the Yangtze River for many years, but didn't most of it be used on the Supreme Emperor?The Supreme Emperor made six southern tours to pick him up, and the money was spent like running water. Isn't that just the people's fat and people's anointing?The Supreme Emperor can't cross the river and tear down the bridge, abandoning us loyal courtiers and ignoring him!If this is the case, everyone's hearts will be chilled!

The Zhen family found out about the relationship between Prince Zhonghui and the Lin family. The wife of the second room of the Zhen family even specially gave a generous gift and sent someone to send a post, looking forward to a visit.Naturally, Lin Daiyu refused to accept the gift, nor did she want to meet each other. The Zhen family will definitely be destroyed, and the Lin family will not go into this muddy water.Why are the Zhen family and Miss Lin's maternal ancestor's family relatives for several lifetimes? Please look at this affection and intercede with the Zhen family. Hehe, Lin Daiyu has broken off even the Jia family, let alone eight poles The untouchable Zhen family!Lin Daiyu resolutely closed the door to thank the guests on the grounds that she was unwell and did not see outsiders.

Later, the Zhen family handed over several posts, but Lin Daiyu just ignored them and ordered all her servants to strictly reject them.The Zhen family was powerless against the Lin family, they could only sigh indignantly at the cruelty of the world.

Mrs. Zhen's family went to Beijing, but there was no news of her going there, and no good news came back from Beijing.The Zhen family was as anxious as a bird in a cage. More and more criminal evidence was dug up. Seeing that the situation was not going well, the Jiangnan officials also turned around one after another. The net in Prince Zhonghui's hands was getting tighter and tighter.Knowing that the situation is over, the Zhen family secretly left a way out for their children and grandchildren, and made many preparations, such as transferring large sums of money to various old relatives' homes for future use.But in fact, the Zhen family's every move was thoroughly investigated by the people sent by Prince Zhonghui, and they just let them go. felony!

Several months later, in the Lin Mansion, Lin Daiyu sighed secretly when she heard Lin Chenxi's words.Lin Chenxi told her that Prince Zhonghui had collected a large number of crimes against the Zhen family and sent them to the capital. The emperor was furious and announced it to the court.Because the evidence is overwhelming, no one can plead for it.There was no movement in the palace either.Now, the Zhen family has been ransacked and questioned. The head of the Zhen family, several masters, and adult young masters have all been escorted to the capital for trial. Day sale.It is said that many men and women are greedy for the identity and beauty of the female family members of the Zhen family, and they plan to spend a lot of money to buy the ladies and wives of the Zhen family as maids and concubines. Asking them to accompany the wine to pick up the guests will definitely make a lot of money, and it is worth paying more money now.There are even those who have enemies with the Zhen family want to take revenge, and plan to buy those female relatives locally to vent their anger regardless of blood.

The whole of Jiangnan was paying attention to this matter. Lin Chenxi was a little bit embarrassed when she thought that the talented and beautiful women in the past would be reduced to this fate.But this is stipulated by the court law, and it is also a helpless thing. It's just a pity for those women!

Lin Daiyu listened silently, her heart was also sad, mixed with a bit of chill.In this ancient society, there is not much sense of security at all, and it is just a joke that the disaster is worse than wives and children.Even those nobles who occupy high positions and enjoy the glory and wealth will be trampled into the dust overnight.

Thinking of this, she felt heavy in her heart. Isn't she in such an environment? Although she is the county lord now, in the eyes of the superiors, she is just a bigger ant. Where can she find peace and harmony? Happy?Lin Daiyu felt deeply powerless, and she missed the modern life more and more. Even though there is no good food and clothing like today, even though she has to work hard to make a living, that is the hometown that makes her feel at ease.

She was also worried about the girls of Jia's family, and she couldn't imagine what it would be like for them to end up like this.Unable to tell Lin Chenxi in the open, Lin Daiyu secretly ordered to go to the capital to send a message to the steward who stayed in the Lin Mansion. If the Jia family fell, at least they could redeem those women, and it would not be in vain for her to come to the Red Mansion.It's better to be kind, to stretch out your hand, you can pull people out of the quagmire, if you stand coldly in this situation, Lin Daiyu feels that she will feel uneasy.

The Zhen Family Mansion collapsed, it was extremely miserable, and there was no place to turn over.After the success, Prince Zhonghui was ordered to return to the capital soon. He was appointed by the emperor to supervise the trial of the Zhen family's major case.This matter involved a lot, and it also involved the palace. His status can be suppressed, and he is firmly on the side of the emperor. He is the best candidate for the presiding judge.The Zhen family's questioning of crimes is not only about punishing a corrupt official, but also involves the battle between the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor, which ordinary officials dare not intervene.For a while, the atmosphere in the capital was oppressive, and there was a feeling of 'the rain is about to come and the building is full of wind'.Both Lin Daiyu and Lin Chenxi felt a little lucky for the news they had inquired through various channels.Fortunately, they are now in the south of the Yangtze River, far away from those turmoil!

Prince Zhonghui took great care of the Lin family, and when the property of the Zhen family was sold, his officials even came to inform him.Lin Daiyu took this opportunity to buy some of the good land sold by the Zhen family.When Lin Chenxi was in the south of the Yangtze River when she was young, she also witnessed the splendor and prosperity of the Zhen family, and now seeing them end up like this, she felt horrified in her heart.He secretly decided that even if he becomes an official in the future, he should not be fascinated by power. It is best to be safe in a noble position, and he will take the Zhen family as a warning.The Lin family is his responsibility!

Lin Chenxi immersed herself in her studies, preparing for the next exam.Lin Daiyu was waiting for a result she already knew.

In the capital, the heads of the Jia family are far away from the court. Jia Amnesty and Jia Zhen are both empty-handed. They don't have to go to court on weekdays, and they can't see the palace newspapers and are not interested in reading them.Jia Zheng, the only one who works in the Ministry of Industry, is also on business outside. The backbone prince of the four major families, Teng Mingsheng, has secretly descended to inspect the seven provinces.

When Mrs. Zhen came to Beijing, the Zhen family had not yet been overthrown.She went to Mrs. Wang and begged to hide part of the gold, silver and jewelry brought to the capital in Jia's house, and promised her great thanks.Mrs. Wang couldn't resist the temptation, thinking that with the Emperor and Concubine Zhen in the Zhen family, everything would be fine in the end.A helping hand at this time will definitely be a great favor, and Concubine Zhen will also be grateful to Yuan Chun.If something really happened, then the huge property that Zhen's family left with her would belong to her. The family's finances were in dire straits, and she was worrying about the expenses of Yuanchun in the palace, but the heavens gave her a windfall!Presumably Mrs. Zhen would rather give this property to her old relatives than make it cheaper for the court!All in all, it's worth it!

With this wishful thinking, Mrs. Wang bypassed Jia's mother, and privately arranged for her confidant Zhou Rui and others to accept the property of the Zhen family, and secretly stored it in her private treasury, hiding it tightly.The Jia family didn't even know about this matter.

Mother Jia has experienced a lot and feels uneasy in her heart. Although she can't save face and received Mrs. Zhen once, she always talks about him and refuses to accept Mrs. Zhen's words. She only sighs that her family has fallen and has no influence in the officialdom , can't help.Later, seeing Mrs. Zhen no longer came to the door, Jia's mother was relieved, but she didn't know that Mrs. Wang secretly hid the property of the Zhen family. The madam was greedy and ignorant, and added another major crime to the Jia family, but it was too late.

Not long after, the trial of the Zhen family was settled.The head of the Zhen family and his two younger brothers were sentenced to beheading, and the rest were exiled and imprisoned. For decades, the Zhen family, the richest and most wealthy in the south of the Yangtze River, disappeared. There are not many traces left.

The crimes and verdict of the Zhen family were reported by the emperor and Prince Zhonghui in person to the Supreme Emperor. The Supreme Emperor, who was sick in bed, was stimulated by this and had a stroke, paralyzed on the bed and unable to speak or move.Concubine Zhen was implicated in the crimes of the Zhen family, the emperor ordered that her title be deprived and she be deposed as a commoner.Losing the protection of the Supreme Emperor and her identity, many people in the palace surrendered to the Emperor one after another, exposing her many crimes.The emperor was furious, and summoned the clan order to reveal the crimes of Concubine Zhen to the clan, and ordered her to die, and she would not be buried in the imperial mausoleum after her death.Concubine Zhen's son Zhongping failed to compete with the emperor for the throne, and the emperor sent him to a remote place far away to become the king of the county.At this time, the emperor also sent his cronies to escort Zhongping to Beijing on the grounds that Zhongping was involved in the crime of Concubine Zhen.Afterwards, Zhongping was abolished as the county king, and he was ordered to contemplate his mistakes behind closed doors, and the clan mansion strictly guarded him.

Zhongping and the Zhen family lost the protection of the Supreme Emperor, and after the emperor ascended the throne, he continued to gather strength and was already full-fledged, strong and weak, and Zhongping was completely powerless to fight back.There was another news from the palace that the Supreme Emperor saw that his life was numbered, and when he passed away, the emperor would send Zhongping to guard the mausoleum, and he was not allowed to leave the imperial mausoleum for the rest of his life.

After liquidating the power of the Zhen family, the power of the emperor became stronger, and no one in the court and the public could resist it.He freed his hands, ready to clean up the four princes and eight princes
