Old things in the Red Chamber

Jia Zheng himself is not the kind of person who is good at mundane affairs.A vulgar can sum up more.

In the eyes of scholars, dealing with money is relatively vulgar, and dealing with officials is also very vulgar.Not to mention dealing with some common people, this is not only vulgar, but also not elegant.

Jia Zheng has always regarded himself as a scholar.I don't even want to take care of my own housework.At this time, it is time to copy the homes of the slaves.As far as Jia Zheng was concerned, although he was unwilling in his heart, there was nothing he could do, because he didn't have many available people.

In the past, whenever something happened in the family, it was all handed over to Jia Lian, regardless of the process in the middle of Jia Lian, it would always work out in the end.

Now that Jia Lian is away, his own son doesn't worry about these vulgar things even more than he does. Naturally, he doesn't have a handy person to handle this matter for him, and this matter has to be handled secretly and quickly, so he can only do it himself. up.

So after this matter was done, there were many loopholes that he didn't deal with, not because he didn't want to deal with it, but because he didn't have experience in doing such mundane affairs.

First of all, he didn't tie up the slaves who committed crimes, and either handed them over to the government, or sold them on the spot. If it was a more ruthless Patriarch, he might find an opportunity to silence the slaves who were under control.

Jia Zheng's handling of this matter was to take the money back, scold the slaves, and finally, in order to show benevolence and righteousness, he kept them as errands in the mansion.

Secondly, people like the Lai family.It is time to control the people in their family who can move freely.Don't get away with one, especially a good citizen like Lai Shangrong, even go to the government to file a record and sue him for theft.Then check it up and down, and put Lai Shang in the prison. If his life is bad, he will live. If his luck is not good, he will give his life to the prison.

Jia Zheng still didn't do this matter. He himself had already forgotten his identity, and he had forgotten that there was another person in their family who was a good citizen.

Therefore, what was waiting for Jia Zheng was to go to the court for a debate, and the venue for the debate was on the Golden Temple.

It was the same as before, Jia Zheng knelt in the middle, and the Minister of Rites asked questions.Jia Zheng replied that in the end, he would listen to other people's opinions on this matter. If there is a result in the quarrel, the matter will be over today. If there is no result in the quarrel, it will be done again tomorrow.

The night before, Shi Taijun sent people to give gifts to the old relatives' homes.Among them, the four kings with different surnames are the focus, so early this morning, many nobles who did not go to court came to the court hall.

Among them, one of the four kings and eight princes came here.

The emperor sat high on the throne, and looking down from above, he could see a mass of human heads.He knew who was standing and where, and his eyes flicked across the crowd, staying on Jia Zhen's head for a while, and then drifting away.

Not long after he became emperor back then, he took everything very seriously, even if it was some trivial matter, he thought about it over and over again.Up to now, he only cares about the big things, and doesn't care about the small things.

Jia Zheng went to court to debate today, which is not a big deal for him.

So in the end, there were more people who supported Jia Zheng. Since the quarrel came to an end, the matter has been handed over to the Shuntian government.Taking up a whole morning for such a trivial matter, the emperor yawned, waved his sleeves, and retreated.

Because it was Jia's family that had the accident, the Supreme Emperor was still thinking of such a little bit of incense, so he sent someone to invite him after the emperor's downfall.

"I've also heard about it. I can't blame the Jia family for this matter. My house was stolen, so I can't get it back?"

When people get old, apart from having a little childish temper, they also have a lot of stubbornness.In his mind, Jia Daishan is a great loyal minister, so Jia Daishan's children are also loyal ministers.

"This matter is fair and comfortable, and the Shuntian Mansion will definitely handle it fairly. Besides, the person surnamed Lai is not a good person. Doesn't he know where the money in the family comes from? How dare he complain now? That really ate the guts of an ambitious leopard."

The emperor sat opposite the Taishanghuang, holding a cup of tea, and casually said to the Taishanghuang, "If something happens, you must take it as a warning. The servants of the Jia family can evacuate the master's house, which shows that they are very capable, except for the Jia family. Apart from the pustules, the servants of their family are extremely despicable. My son is still thinking about this this morning, and this kind of thing still happens in a ruined mansion, let alone the treasury."

The Supreme Emperor was shocked, "Do you want to check the money owed?"

"That's right, the grace is too much. Sometimes someone doesn't know good and bad, and they will disappoint our family's wishes. The minister of the household department has cried many times, saying that there are too many bad debts, plus the use of soldiers and money from the treasury. This period of time wasted very quickly. When the food and grass were running low, Jia Gu would put on his armor and sit in front of the yamen of the household department. The most disgusting thing was that he was accompanied by some disabled veterans. He was very cruel, with either missing arms or broken legs, and he did not enter the household department, but blocked the entrance of the household department, scaring the small officials of the household department from going to the yamen."

The Supreme Emperor changed the subject as soon as he heard it, "This guy is not like his father. His father was a handsome young man when he was young, and he is also a Confucian general when he is old. You can see that he is clearly a rascal with this method."

The emperor knew the Supreme Emperor, and wanted to confuse this matter today, thinking that he was old, and the matter of checking the money owed was all his old ministers. For the old man, this was undoubtedly heartbreaking.The emperor put down the teacup, asked other topics casually, and stopped talking about the money owed.

The royal father and son talked peacefully for half the morning. The emperor's thoughtfulness was a very proud thing for the emperor.He knew that the emperor was a filial person and rarely disobeyed himself. As long as he lived longer, he would be able to protect the veterans more.

When the queen sent someone to invite the emperor, he saw the emperor's car driving out of his bedroom, and immediately called his confidant eunuchs over.

"You go out of the palace and tell those elders who have borrowed money from the treasury to pay back as much as you can. If you can pay back, you can't pay it back. As long as you tell the truth, I will intercede with the emperor here."

After the eunuchs heard this, they left the palace one after another. The emperor soon found out about it, and when he heard the news, he himself had already arrived in the queen's bedroom.

"Seeing that my father is getting old, I still can't bear some things. Let's wait a few years to talk about it. In fact, I don't expect the loaned money to be returned after so many years. If the treasury is short of money, I will find a solution from other places." , the old man is getting old, let him pass the past few years peacefully."

The queen disapproved and said to the emperor, "I'm just afraid that this matter will make the old man sad. Now those old officials of his are not a big family. If they pay back the money, what should they do with a big family? Even if you are rich, you will cry poor with the Supreme Emperor."

"You're right. I'll have someone investigate this matter. If you really have the money and the ability to pay back the money, you're not willing to pay back the money. When the Supreme Emperor is gone, I'll be taking care of them slowly. They If they die by chance, the blame will fall on their children and grandchildren. By the way, why did you send someone to call me back at this time?"

The queen clapped her hands twice, and several court ladies came in with trays, and after removing the silk on them, there were hairpins used by some girls.

"It's a lawsuit brought about by these few things. Concubine Cui brought these things over this morning, saying that they were things from the boudoir of the imperial concubine in the past, and they were left outside. She specially packed them up and presented them to me."

The emperor laughed angrily.

"I scolded her this morning. If you know the rules and know how to behave, you should send these things to the princes and princesses. What are you doing for me? No matter how bad it is, you should send them to the emperor. It's just a thought."

The emperor just smiled and waved his hands, "These things may not belong to her. She also told me back then that when they were in the boudoir, there were three copies of everything in their house, and each of the three girls One copy. Concubine Cui heard that Jia's house was stolen, and she believed it when someone brought it to her. When I met Concubine He, it was at the residence of Huangjie in Anyang. If I wanted to keep something If you think about it, you can still think about the objects she used after that, I didn't know her before, so what's the point of thinking about her with something I haven't seen her use before."

The queen waved her hand, and the maids took the things back. There was no one in the hall, only the husband and wife were left.

"There are quite a few concubines who come and go in the palace these years. After being away with the noble concubine for so long, the emperor has such an expression when he mentions her. I have to ask cheekily, what is so good about her that the emperor still misses her even now? "

"It's not enough to be obsessed with it. I really miss her when I think of her. If there is anything good about her, I really can't tell. The first time I saw her, I felt that this girl had a calm temper and a serious girl. Don't worry about seeing her later. How many times have I seen, but what I remember now is only the first glance."

The queen's expression was half a smile, "I didn't expect our emperor to be a passionate person."

The emperor said to the queen coolly, "Love is just a little thing, give you more and give her less, and others have no share, so don't be jealous here."

After hearing these words, the Queen felt a little shy on her face.But the question in his mouth was still about the matter with the imperial concubine.

"I don't know if I was in the boudoir with the imperial concubine if it was a family of girls from all over the world?"

The emperor was very sharp and frowned.

"Isn't that what Concubine Cui said? It's normal for her brain to be used as a weapon. How can someone come to your side to chew on some rumors?"

The queen nodded helplessly, "I'm in charge of the affairs of the harem. I've been suppressed by this matter. There are no people left. No one can justify what others say. It's disgusting. It's too despicable. gone."

"When the time comes, her son will become the emperor, and today's rumors will become a fact."
