Jia Lian of the Red Chamber
Chapter 147 147
When Emperor Qianyuan heard about the magical skill of the golden needle, his heart was moved, and his heart yearned for it. Which emperor would not want to live a thousand years?
Emperor Qianyuan was dissatisfied with the Gu family suddenly, thanks to the fact that he had favored and trusted the Gu family for decades, until now, the Gu family was full of wealth.The emperor also favored the Gu family a lot, and the favor of several generations of emperors did not warm the heart of the Gu family.
The Gu family never mentioned this set of miraculous golden needle technique.
In the eyes of Emperor Qianyuan, the Gu family was simply too hateful.
There is really no need for such a white-eyed wolf who can't get enough to feed the Gu family to exist anymore.
There is another reason why Emperor Qianyuan didn't want Jinyiwei to be known.
Jin Yiwei has been infiltrated by several princes over the years, especially the seventh prince supported by the Gu family, and because of Emperor Qianyuan's intentional indulgence, the seventh prince can be half of Jin Yiwei's family.If Jin Yiwei went to search the Gu family, I'm afraid that the Gu family's wealth would shrink by half.
To be honest, Emperor Qianyuan was quite cruel, although he was very infatuated with Concubine Shu, he liked her so much that he wanted her to be the queen, and he wanted his seventh prince to be the prince.
Now it was discovered that the Gu family was suspected of being insane. In order to cover up the scandal, the Gu family immediately concealed the life-saving golden needle technique and turned it into infidelity.
At this moment, Emperor Qianyuan had already launched a murderous plan.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Shu scratched Longyan unconsciously at this moment, and immediately found a breakthrough for Emperor Qianyuan who was full of hatred.
Looking at the Gu family, everything was wrong.
It was a mistake to send a mad daughter into the palace, tarnishing the royal blood, and it was a big mistake to conceal the life-saving golden needle.
In addition, Concubine Shu murdered the Empress Dowager, Gu Pei was insane, and the ancestor of the Gu family murdered his wife after seeking a treasure. All these things had to be settled again.
Where is the Gu family still alive?
Moreover, the Gu family is full of evil and cannot blame others.
Of course, Emperor Qianyuan dared not announce the fact that the lunatic woman of the Gu family had given birth to Emperor Qianyuan's four children who were suspected to be lunatics.However, how much he liked Concubine Shu in the past, how much he hates the Gu family now.
At the same time, in his heart, he is not as urgent as before to be the crown prince to the Seventh Prince.Even, he didn't like the Seventh Prince's brothers as much as before.
This time my heart is at ease, and I look at the other sons, all of them are good.At least, most of them are stronger than the Seventh Prince.They have inherited the throne, and their own throne will not pass to a lunatic one day.
Emperor Qianyuan was very reluctant to think about his son in this way, but such thoughts always popped up involuntarily, and Emperor Qianyuan was tormented day by day and restless at night.
It is precisely because of this that Emperor Qianyuan hated the Gu family more and more, and he had to get rid of it quickly.Especially the madman locked up in their backyard.
This day is the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, the end of the year.
A majestic cavalry team from Kyoto was ordered to go out of Beijing and head to Jiangnan.
On the same day, Jia Rong discovered that the little eunuch in Concubine Shu's palace had brought two pigeons back to the palace mysteriously.The Queen Mother then ordered Jia Rong and Jia Yun to supervise the Yikun Palace.
Afterwards, Jia Yun and Jia Rong were ordered to shoot down two pigeons that flew out of Concubine Shu's palace.
The empress dowager did not open the letter paper, but directly ordered someone to send the pigeon to Emperor Qianyuan.Emperor Qianyuan opened the bamboo tube on the pigeon's leg suspiciously, but it was a letter from Concubine Shu to the Gu family in Jiangnan. She notified the Gu family that Emperor Qianyuan was going to search the Gu family.
Emperor Qianyuan was furious again, and decisively closed the door of Concubine Shu's Yikun Palace, and Concubine Shu was thrown into the cold palace.
This time, no matter how the seven princes, eight princes and two princesses cried and complained, Emperor Qianyuan did not soften his heart.
If it wasn't for being betrayed by the person next to the pillow, it would hurt Longyan to say it, Emperor Qianyuan would have thought of depriving Concubine Shu of her title and directly throwing her into the cold palace.
After all, Emperor Qianyuan was soft-hearted. For the sake of his four children and the fact that Concubine Shu had been with him for many years in the past, he decided to leave Concubine Shu with the last dignity and let Concubine Shu die in Concubine Shu's position.
Looking back, he said that the king of Beijing County and Jia Lian were holding the emperor's imperial decree in their hands. They didn't dare to delay, they hurried, and ten days later, they arrived at the ancestral house of the Gu family on the ground in Yangzhou.
Good guy, the Gu family's ancestral house is not literally a house, it's a whole town.
Although the threshold of the Gu family is not as high as that of Jia's house, and the copper nails on the door are not as many as Jia's house.According to Jia Lian's visual inspection, there are definitely more small courtyards in the Gu family's ancestral house than the small courtyards in Rongguo Mansion.
With the order of the King of Beijing, the Xiaoqi Camp surrounded the entire Gu family's ancestral house.
However, there are only 300 people in the Xiaoqi Battalion, so it is very difficult to enclose the entire house.Therefore, the king of Beijing changed his order: "One team guards the front door, and the other team guards the back door and all exits. No one is allowed to go."
Fortunately, Emperor Qianyuan had the foresight to come to the Xiaoqi Battalion, otherwise, only a team of Jinyiwei with 120 people to strengthen the Lang team would not be enough.
The king of Beijing County and Jia Lian led a team of Langs into the mansion to search.
There is a white pair pasted at the door of Gu's house, and white lanterns are hung on both sides of the door, indicating that the family is doing ceremonial affairs.
Jia Lian silently calculated that Mr. Gu died on the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. Today is the 28th day of the first lunar month, which is not yet the seventh day.
The king of Beijing County looked at the white pair stuck on the door of Gu's house, and exchanged a helpless look with Jia Lian.In the end, the king of Beijing County led the way into the gate of the Gu family.
The servants who were welcoming the guests at the door had long since disappeared.
The main hall of the main house of Gu's family is Bai Haohao's.
Gu Fei, the eldest son of Gu, knelt in front of his father's spirit, his eyes were full of despair, he scrambled for the ground, and his voice was mournful: "Father, your life did not impress His Majesty, Jin Yiwei is here. You died for nothing! Farewell, goodbye today, I'm afraid we won't see each other again, father, please go!"
At this time, a white lady walked out of the back hall, but she was covered in plain clothes, but her graceful face could not be concealed. Very similar, and she is more refined than Concubine Shu.
She was born with a melon-shaped face, with willow-leaf eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes. Although there are fine lines at the corners of her eyes, her forehead is delicate and smooth. The most important thing is a pair of black pupils, which are watery and clear like a girl.
The woman stood still in front of the coffin, her almond eyes were full of sarcasm: "The eldest young master once advertised that he is the one who takes care of the family. When things come to an end, what's the use of crying?"
Gu Fei felt disgusted when he heard the words, if it wasn't for this woman who charmed his father with her troublesome appearance, knowing that there were lunatics in the ancestors of the Mu family, she would marry their sisters to start, if it wasn't for this woman who pampered her children too much, How could the Gu family have such a disaster today?
Gu Fei got up and patted his sleeves, standing proudly, waiting for the imperial envoy to arrive, ignoring the honorary mother.
In Gu Fei's heart, the Mu family sisters are the disaster stars who overthrow their father and mother, and they are obsessed with his father.
If it weren't for the two scourges of the Mu family, his mother would not have died in childbirth.Although the Mu sisters didn't kill his mother with their own hands, his mother died of dystocia because of the ambiguity between the Mu sisters and his father.
It was also because the ancestors of the Mu family had no virtue, and the parents who protected their children were killed by bandits.
Gu Fei has always felt that this is a clear law, and the punishment from heaven.
The King of Beijing County and Jia Lian led a group of soldiers into the compound, and the King of Beijing County ordered: "You wait in the courtyard, and don't move around without my order."
The king of Beijing County and Jia Lian first put incense on Mr. Gu, and then they clasped their hands at Mrs. Gu and Gu Fei and said angrily: "Death cannot be resurrected, so mourn and obey!"
Gu Fei cupped his hands and returned the gift: "Thank you, my lord, and thank you, Guard Jia."
The king of Beijing County nodded, then straightened his face, and said: "Gu Fei accepts the order!"
In the mourning hall, filial sons and virtuous grandchildren knelt down on the floor.
The king of Beijing County unfolded the imperial decree and said: "Following the heavens, the emperor said: The Gu family, the bathing emperor, did not think about repaying the favor, but even repayed the favor and deceived the king. The crime is unforgivable!" He ordered Jin Yiwei to confiscate Gu's family, arrest Gu's family and enter Beijing. Here it is!"
Gu Fei trembled when he heard this.
King Beijing asked, "Gu Fei, can you plead guilty?"
"The guilty minister accepts the order!"
However, Mrs. Gu cried out for injustice: "My lord, all members of the Gu family are loyal to the imperial court and His Majesty, and they dare not do anything to deceive the emperor. Please also ask the imperial envoy to report on your behalf. I hope His Majesty will see clearly, and don't be deceived by villains. "
The King of Beijing sneered: "Excuse me, Mrs. Gu, where is your twin sister?"
Madam Gu's complexion turned pale.
The King of Beijing County asked again: "The imperial court drafts, and it is necessary to check whether the three generations have serious illnesses, chronic diseases, and serious diseases. Does Madam know?"
Madam Gu trembled all over, unable to speak.
At this time, the guests who came to express their condolences in the guest room outside were all alarmed.
Among the guests were local prominent families, old relatives of the Gu family, and local officials.
These people have either been friends with the Gu family for generations, or have received favors from the Gu family.Hearing that Jin Yiwei raided Gu's family for a while, it was inconceivable.
How can a family of great kindness like the Gu family commit a crime?It must be that the emperor made a mistake, or was deceived by an adulterer.
So, someone took the lead: "We are all old relatives of the Gu family, and we have all received favors from the Gu family. Now, we can't ignore the Gu family's accident."
One person takes the lead, and a hundred people respond.
Let's come up together to ask the truth, and want to intercede with the Gu family.
One of them was the magistrate of Yangzhou. Today he happened to express his condolences to the Gu family. Because he was the official of his parents, he was elected by everyone.
He also felt that as a herdsman, he had the responsibility to speak up for the Gu family, but the Gu family had done a lot of good things in the local area. Every year, the donations were among the best, and the local people received a lot of favors from the Gu family.
The magistrate of Yangzhou was surnamed Zhou, and he went forward to salute the king of Beijing County and Jia Lian: "The official is Zhou Binghui, the magistrate of Yangzhou. I heard that two imperial envoys were ordered to come to arrest Gu's family and others. I don't know what happened, so I came to inquire about it. I don't know what crime the Gu family committed?"
The king of Beijing County and Jia Lian bowed their hands together and returned the salute: "It's easy to say!"
The two exchanged glances.
King Beijing looked at Gu Fei: "Master Gu, will you explain it yourself, or will this king explain it for you?"
Gu Fei's face turned pale immediately, and he bowed his hands to Zhou Binghui: "Thank you, Mr. Futai, for your help. It's only because my Gu family did something wrong in a moment of confusion. That's why I committed the unforgivable crime of deceiving the emperor. I really can't blame others."
Zhou Binghui was stunned when he heard the words, but he cupped his hands again and said: "The lower officials are reckless, but although the Gu family committed a crime, they also did good for the village and benefited one side, and asked the two imperial envoys to treat the family members of the Gu family well, it is really innocent women and children."
The king of Beijing County nodded when he heard the words: "Your Majesty also confessed when I came here that the Gu family's crimes will be punished according to the law, and lynching will never be abused. Please tell the guests present, don't misunderstand, don't panic, wait until we finish counting the Gu family. Wait, as long as it's not Gu's family, they will naturally let everyone go."
Zhou Binghui was sad and retreated after hearing the words: "That's it, I will resign."
The king of Beijing County said to Gu Fei: "Master Gu, please instruct the steward of your mansion to gather all the men in the mansion in the front yard and the women in the back yard, and then present the roster of the mansion. Check it out, so as not to accidentally injure the guests in the mansion."
Although Zhou Binghui retreated, his ears were pricked up. Hearing the words of the king of Beijing, he nodded secretly, thinking, this king of Beijing is indeed a man of good manners and magnanimity.Treat court criminals like the Gu family with such fairness and courtesy.
When the Gu family was in trouble, it was really lucky to meet such an upright man as the Prince of Beijing.
For a while, the men and women of the Gu family counted according to the booklet, and the number was good.
The king of Beijing ordered that the men and women should be separated and detained.
Jia Lian took the initiative to solicit the responsibility of guarding the criminals, and pushed the matter of inspecting the warehouse to the King of Beijing.
Jia Lian thought that Emperor Qianyuan's sudden raid on the Gu family could not have been just a moment of anger, and that as soon as the old man of the Du family entered the palace, Emperor Qianyuan would raid the Gu family. He said there was no connection, but Jia Lian didn't believe it.
Jia Lian didn't want to take this muddy water. In his past and present lives, both his brother and mother died on the Rongguo Mansion's secret books.Jia Lian did not believe that Emperor Qianyuan would raid the Gu family for no reason.
If it is said that the Gu family deceived the emperor, in fact, the Gu family has been deceiving the emperor for 800 years, and Emperor Qianyuan has always had an ambiguous attitude.Now suddenly the old saying is brought up again, and even the stupidest person can see that there is something tricky in it.
The king of Beijing County doesn't care, he does whatever he wants, anyway, he and the Gu family's party are already irreconcilable.
Furthermore, he was charged with His Majesty's secret mission, how could he complete His Majesty's mission if he didn't personally supervise the confiscation of the house?
The king of Beijing County divided a team of men into two, ordinary people ransacked the house with him, and ordinary people guarded the criminals.
Half of the officers and soldiers of the Xiaoqi Battalion are Jia Lian's old acquaintances, so Jia Lian decided to keep his ugly words in order to avoid difficult handling.
Jia Lian said: "Although they offend the family members of criminals, they have their own court to punish them according to the law. Since you are on errands with me, I have my own rules in doing errands: first, you are not allowed to contemptuously insult the female family members; second, you are not allowed to search the female family members; third , You are not allowed to enter the house where the female relatives are detained. This is my rule. If you are not satisfied, you can speak up in person. I will not punish you and change the errands for you. If you stay, you violated my rules, and you will not be forgiven. "
After hearing Jia Lian's words, the trembling female relatives in the room felt relieved. At least, even if they died, they would die innocently.
Most of Xiaoqiying are the sons of nobles from Kyoto, everyone has a face, how can they leave just because they can't search the belongings of the female relatives.Although some people disagreed and had a loose attitude, they agreed to abide by Jia Lian's rules together.
When Jia Lian saw this, he was afraid that they would be obedient to others, because he said: "In life, everyone has a narrow time. No matter who you are, you can't guarantee that your family will not be unlucky for a lifetime. Who has no parents and who has no sisters? You have to believe this. There is a reincarnation of heaven in the world, good and evil are rewarded!"
Jia Lian's words were light, but the effect was serious. The soldiers present were all awe-inspiring, and there was no contempt in their hearts.They all responded respectfully: "Lieutenant Jia, don't worry, we will definitely follow the rules!"
Jia Lian heard their sincerity, and said with a smile: "I know that the brothers have worked hard in the first month to go to Beijing to do errands. After returning to Beijing, you choose Fengxianlou or Sai Diaochan, and I will be the host!"
Hearing this, all the soldiers immediately cheered up: "Thank you, Captain Captain."
The king of Beijing was deeply moved when he watched Jia Lian's lecture.He thought to himself, Jia Lian really cares about benevolence and righteousness, talent is rare, no wonder the Rong Mansion has risen again.
The Gu family has a lot of money and supplies.Not only did the cash search find no less than 300 million yuan, but the medicinal materials alone had been hoarded in three large warehouses, including a lot of precious medicinal materials such as ginseng antler and deer treasure, with an estimated value of about one million.The semi-finished fine material warehouse is said to be comparable to a Tai Hospital.
The Gu family's pharmacies have opened almost all over Jiangnan. It can be said that the Gu family has monopolized the pharmaceutical industry in Jiangnan.
Although the Gu family's impression on Jia Lian was not as rich as a country, it was almost the same.
With such a deep family background, Jia Lian really doesn't know why the mother and son of Concubine Shu still do things that are detrimental to morality?
Could it be that there are other plans?Or, the Gu family didn't support Concubine Shu unreservedly, but had other plans?
These are just Jia Lian's private guesses, so they can't be sure.
Although there was no major disturbance in the search of Gu's house, there was also a little accident.When the Gu family was being searched, an accident also happened. The shop of the Gu family in Suzhou was looted.When Jin Yiwei came to the door, the building was already empty.In the end, Jia Lian dispatched a team of soldiers to investigate together with the Suzhou government office, and the person who looted turned out to be a side branch of the Gu family.
This undoubtedly put a black mark on the Gu family's bright reputation in the south of the Yangtze River.All the people in Jiangnan suddenly shivered and sobered up a little. Although the Gu family has done good deeds over the years, the tree has dead branches. The Gu family was as holy as people imagined.
Because Jia Lian treated them leniently, the female family members of the Gu family could move around in the courtyard, eating and drinking.Unexpectedly, just because Jia Lian took them loose, a shocking thing almost happened.
Mrs. Gu seduced the guards who were guarding that night, and then she and his four personal wives took the opportunity to stun the two guards who were guarding the gate, and secretly sprinkled the unprocessed tung oil from the Gu family's warehouse in the backyard, preparing to set fire and burn all the guards to death. The female family members of the Gu family, including her lunatic sister of course, wanted to cover up the crime of deceiving the emperor that the Gu family committed back then.
Fortunately, Jia Lian didn't leave Gu's house that day, because of practicing Qigong, Jia Lian not only has a good hearing ability, but also has a different sense of smell than ordinary people.Because Jia Lian was in the front yard, Jia Lian only realized the danger when Mrs. Gu handed over half of the tung oil.
Jia Lian didn't even have time to inform the King of Beijing, handed over a climbing ladder, and floated into the back house in an instant.
Seeing Jia Lian coming, Mrs. Gu wanted to repeat her old tricks, she leaned towards Jia Lian: "Your Excellency has worked hard to watch the night, although my concubine is not good at medicine, but I have learned one-handed massage skills, I will pinch for you, loose and loose, right? "
Jia Lian sneered, and hit her soft numb point like the wind.Then, Jia Lian kicked the other four healthy women over and broke their hands.
Madam Gu suddenly screamed: "My lord, what are you doing, help me!"
"My lord, please forgive me, I really didn't hide gold and silver!"
Jia Lian neither left nor stopped, waiting for the King of Beijing to bring people to arrive, Mrs. Gu Lihua burst into tears, not to mention, this half-old lady is really charming.
The King of Beijing asked in surprise, "Lord Jia, what's going on?"
Jia Lian smirked: "Go and see the heels of the house over there?"
Several guards approached with torches, and they were startled: "No, someone poured tung oil and wanted to set fire."
The king of Beijing immediately understood the clue, looked at Mrs. Gu and sneered: "Have you fed your conscience to the dog? Not to mention how merciful Mrs. Jia is to your family, but to say that there are dozens of women and children in this room, which one is not a close relative of your Gu family?" ? You actually had the heart to burn them to death? Strangely speaking, there is something wrong with the blood of the Mu family."
The king of Beijing County turned around and ordered: "Tie this crazy woman hand and foot, lock her up alone, and give her one meal a day, so she won't starve to death, so that she won't be fed up and make a disgusting appearance!"
Since Mrs. Gu did not give up after being detained, and wanted to set fire to the prisoner, the king of Beijing County also became impatient. Unfortunately, the medical books that His Majesty ordered him to look for have not yet been found.
The king of Beijing County had no choice but to come to Jia Lian for discussion: "Lord Jia, don't speak dark words in front of celebrities. This king is in trouble, so I ask Brother Jia Shi to help." Jia Lian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you are too polite. If you have something to do, just give orders, and Jia will not refuse if he can do his best."
The king of Beijing County said: "Medical books!"
Jia Lian frowned: "Medical books? What medical books?"
"The Du family's medical books, the Du family decided to give the medical books to the royal family first, but their ancestral secret books were stolen by the Gu family, and they exclusively begged the emperor to make decisions for him, saying that as long as they can avenge his grandfather and aunt, they are willing to dedicate the medical books to the royal family , as a repayment."
Jia Lian stretched out his hand in doubt: "The Gu family's medical books are extraordinary in themselves, so is it better than the medical books of the Imperial Hospital?"
It should be known that since the establishment of this dynasty, the emperor has searched everywhere for martial arts secret books and medical secret books for the sake of longevity. For a while, [-]% of the secret medical books on the rivers and lakes were searched into the palace.
When the Gu family presented the secret formula for giving birth, it was to catch up with this wave.
Emperor Qianyuan was dissatisfied with the Gu family suddenly, thanks to the fact that he had favored and trusted the Gu family for decades, until now, the Gu family was full of wealth.The emperor also favored the Gu family a lot, and the favor of several generations of emperors did not warm the heart of the Gu family.
The Gu family never mentioned this set of miraculous golden needle technique.
In the eyes of Emperor Qianyuan, the Gu family was simply too hateful.
There is really no need for such a white-eyed wolf who can't get enough to feed the Gu family to exist anymore.
There is another reason why Emperor Qianyuan didn't want Jinyiwei to be known.
Jin Yiwei has been infiltrated by several princes over the years, especially the seventh prince supported by the Gu family, and because of Emperor Qianyuan's intentional indulgence, the seventh prince can be half of Jin Yiwei's family.If Jin Yiwei went to search the Gu family, I'm afraid that the Gu family's wealth would shrink by half.

Looking at the Gu family, everything was wrong.
It was a mistake to send a mad daughter into the palace, tarnishing the royal blood, and it was a big mistake to conceal the life-saving golden needle.
In addition, Concubine Shu murdered the Empress Dowager, Gu Pei was insane, and the ancestor of the Gu family murdered his wife after seeking a treasure. All these things had to be settled again.

This day is the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, the end of the year.
A majestic cavalry team from Kyoto was ordered to go out of Beijing and head to Jiangnan.

The crime is unforgivable!" He ordered Jin Yiwei to confiscate Gu's family, arrest Gu's family and enter Beijing. Here it is!"
Gu Fei trembled when he heard this.
King Beijing asked, "Gu Fei, can you plead guilty?"
"The guilty minister accepts the order!"
However, Mrs. Gu cried out for injustice: "My lord, all members of the Gu family are loyal to the imperial court and His Majesty, and they dare not do anything to deceive the emperor. Please also ask the imperial envoy to report on your behalf. I hope His Majesty will see clearly, and don't be deceived by villains. "
The King of Beijing sneered: "Excuse me, Mrs. Gu, where is your twin sister?"
Madam Gu's complexion turned pale.
The King of Beijing County asked again: "The imperial court drafts, and it is necessary to check whether the three generations have serious illnesses, chronic diseases, and serious diseases. Does Madam know?"
Madam Gu trembled all over, unable to speak.
At this time, the guests who came to express their condolences in the guest room outside were all alarmed.
Among the guests were local prominent families, old relatives of the Gu family, and local officials.
These people have either been friends with the Gu family for generations, or have received favors from the Gu family.Hearing that Jin Yiwei raided Gu's family for a while, it was inconceivable.
How can a family of great kindness like the Gu family commit a crime?It must be that the emperor made a mistake, or was deceived by an adulterer.
So, someone took the lead: "We are all old relatives of the Gu family, and we have all received favors from the Gu family. Now, we can't ignore the Gu family's accident."
One person takes the lead, and a hundred people respond.
Let's come up together to ask the truth, and want to intercede with the Gu family.
One of them was the magistrate of Yangzhou. Today he happened to express his condolences to the Gu family. Because he was the official of his parents, he was elected by everyone.
He also felt that as a herdsman, he had the responsibility to speak up for the Gu family, but the Gu family had done a lot of good things in the local area. Every year, the donations were among the best, and the local people received a lot of favors from the Gu family.
The magistrate of Yangzhou was surnamed Zhou, and he went forward to salute the king of Beijing County and Jia Lian: "The official is Zhou Binghui, the magistrate of Yangzhou. I heard that two imperial envoys were ordered to come to arrest Gu's family and others. I don't know what happened, so I came to inquire about it. I don't know what crime the Gu family committed?"
The king of Beijing County and Jia Lian bowed their hands together and returned the salute: "It's easy to say!"
The two exchanged glances.
King Beijing looked at Gu Fei: "Master Gu, will you explain it yourself, or will this king explain it for you?"
Gu Fei's face turned pale immediately, and he bowed his hands to Zhou Binghui: "Thank you, Mr. Futai, for your help. It's only because my Gu family did something wrong in a moment of confusion. That's why I committed the unforgivable crime of deceiving the emperor. I really can't blame others."
Zhou Binghui was stunned when he heard the words, but he cupped his hands again and said: "The lower officials are reckless, but although the Gu family committed a crime, they also did good for the village and benefited one side, and asked the two imperial envoys to treat the family members of the Gu family well, it is really innocent women and children."
The king of Beijing County nodded when he heard the words: "Your Majesty also confessed when I came here that the Gu family's crimes will be punished according to the law, and lynching will never be abused. Please tell the guests present, don't misunderstand, don't panic, wait until we finish counting the Gu family. Wait, as long as it's not Gu's family, they will naturally let everyone go."
Zhou Binghui was sad and retreated after hearing the words: "That's it, I will resign."
The king of Beijing County said to Gu Fei: "Master Gu, please instruct the steward of your mansion to gather all the men in the mansion in the front yard and the women in the back yard, and then present the roster of the mansion. Check it out, so as not to accidentally injure the guests in the mansion."
Although Zhou Binghui retreated, his ears were pricked up. Hearing the words of the king of Beijing, he nodded secretly, thinking, this king of Beijing is indeed a man of good manners and magnanimity.Treat court criminals like the Gu family with such fairness and courtesy.
When the Gu family was in trouble, it was really lucky to meet such an upright man as the Prince of Beijing.
For a while, the men and women of the Gu family counted according to the booklet, and the number was good.
The king of Beijing ordered that the men and women should be separated and detained.
Jia Lian took the initiative to solicit the responsibility of guarding the criminals, and pushed the matter of inspecting the warehouse to the King of Beijing.
Jia Lian thought that Emperor Qianyuan's sudden raid on the Gu family could not have been just a moment of anger, and that as soon as the old man of the Du family entered the palace, Emperor Qianyuan would raid the Gu family. He said there was no connection, but Jia Lian didn't believe it.
Jia Lian didn't want to take this muddy water. In his past and present lives, both his brother and mother died on the Rongguo Mansion's secret books.Jia Lian did not believe that Emperor Qianyuan would raid the Gu family for no reason.
If it is said that the Gu family deceived the emperor, in fact, the Gu family has been deceiving the emperor for 800 years, and Emperor Qianyuan has always had an ambiguous attitude.Now suddenly the old saying is brought up again, and even the stupidest person can see that there is something tricky in it.
The king of Beijing County doesn't care, he does whatever he wants, anyway, he and the Gu family's party are already irreconcilable.
Furthermore, he was charged with His Majesty's secret mission, how could he complete His Majesty's mission if he didn't personally supervise the confiscation of the house?
The king of Beijing County divided a team of men into two, ordinary people ransacked the house with him, and ordinary people guarded the criminals.
Half of the officers and soldiers of the Xiaoqi Battalion are Jia Lian's old acquaintances, so Jia Lian decided to keep his ugly words in order to avoid difficult handling.
Jia Lian said: "Although they offend the family members of criminals, they have their own court to punish them according to the law. Since you are on errands with me, I have my own rules in doing errands: first, you are not allowed to contemptuously insult the female family members; second, you are not allowed to search the female family members; third , You are not allowed to enter the house where the female relatives are detained. This is my rule. If you are not satisfied, you can speak up in person. I will not punish you and change the errands for you. If you stay, you violated my rules, and you will not be forgiven. "
After hearing Jia Lian's words, the trembling female relatives in the room felt relieved. At least, even if they died, they would die innocently.
Most of Xiaoqiying are the sons of nobles from Kyoto, everyone has a face, how can they leave just because they can't search the belongings of the female relatives.Although some people disagreed and had a loose attitude, they agreed to abide by Jia Lian's rules together.
When Jia Lian saw this, he was afraid that they would be obedient to others, because he said: "In life, everyone has a narrow time. No matter who you are, you can't guarantee that your family will not be unlucky for a lifetime. Who has no parents and who has no sisters? You have to believe this. There is a reincarnation of heaven in the world, good and evil are rewarded!"
Jia Lian's words were light, but the effect was serious. The soldiers present were all awe-inspiring, and there was no contempt in their hearts.They all responded respectfully: "Lieutenant Jia, don't worry, we will definitely follow the rules!"
Jia Lian heard their sincerity, and said with a smile: "I know that the brothers have worked hard in the first month to go to Beijing to do errands. After returning to Beijing, you choose Fengxianlou or Sai Diaochan, and I will be the host!"
Hearing this, all the soldiers immediately cheered up: "Thank you, Captain Captain."
The king of Beijing was deeply moved when he watched Jia Lian's lecture.He thought to himself, Jia Lian really cares about benevolence and righteousness, talent is rare, no wonder the Rong Mansion has risen again.
The Gu family has a lot of money and supplies.Not only did the cash search find no less than 300 million yuan, but the medicinal materials alone had been hoarded in three large warehouses, including a lot of precious medicinal materials such as ginseng antler and deer treasure, with an estimated value of about one million.The semi-finished fine material warehouse is said to be comparable to a Tai Hospital.
The Gu family's pharmacies have opened almost all over Jiangnan. It can be said that the Gu family has monopolized the pharmaceutical industry in Jiangnan.
Although the Gu family's impression on Jia Lian was not as rich as a country, it was almost the same.
With such a deep family background, Jia Lian really doesn't know why the mother and son of Concubine Shu still do things that are detrimental to morality?
Could it be that there are other plans?Or, the Gu family didn't support Concubine Shu unreservedly, but had other plans?
These are just Jia Lian's private guesses, so they can't be sure.
Although there was no major disturbance in the search of Gu's house, there was also a little accident.When the Gu family was being searched, an accident also happened. The shop of the Gu family in Suzhou was looted.When Jin Yiwei came to the door, the building was already empty.In the end, Jia Lian dispatched a team of soldiers to investigate together with the Suzhou government office, and the person who looted turned out to be a side branch of the Gu family.
This undoubtedly put a black mark on the Gu family's bright reputation in the south of the Yangtze River.All the people in Jiangnan suddenly shivered and sobered up a little. Although the Gu family has done good deeds over the years, the tree has dead branches. The Gu family was as holy as people imagined.
Because Jia Lian treated them leniently, the female family members of the Gu family could move around in the courtyard, eating and drinking.Unexpectedly, just because Jia Lian took them loose, a shocking thing almost happened.
Mrs. Gu seduced the guards who were guarding that night, and then she and his four personal wives took the opportunity to stun the two guards who were guarding the gate, and secretly sprinkled the unprocessed tung oil from the Gu family's warehouse in the backyard, preparing to set fire and burn all the guards to death. The female family members of the Gu family, including her lunatic sister of course, wanted to cover up the crime of deceiving the emperor that the Gu family committed back then.
Fortunately, Jia Lian didn't leave Gu's house that day, because of practicing Qigong, Jia Lian not only has a good hearing ability, but also has a different sense of smell than ordinary people.Because Jia Lian was in the front yard, Jia Lian only realized the danger when Mrs. Gu handed over half of the tung oil.
Jia Lian didn't even have time to inform the King of Beijing, handed over a climbing ladder, and floated into the back house in an instant.
Seeing Jia Lian coming, Mrs. Gu wanted to repeat her old tricks, she leaned towards Jia Lian: "Your Excellency has worked hard to watch the night, although my concubine is not good at medicine, but I have learned one-handed massage skills, I will pinch for you, loose and loose, right? "
Jia Lian sneered, and hit her soft numb point like the wind.Then, Jia Lian kicked the other four healthy women over and broke their hands.
Madam Gu suddenly screamed: "My lord, what are you doing, help me!"
"My lord, please forgive me, I really didn't hide gold and silver!"
Jia Lian neither left nor stopped, waiting for the King of Beijing to bring people to arrive, Mrs. Gu Lihua burst into tears, not to mention, this half-old lady is really charming.
The King of Beijing asked in surprise, "Lord Jia, what's going on?"
Jia Lian smirked: "Go and see the heels of the house over there?"
Several guards approached with torches, and they were startled: "No, someone poured tung oil and wanted to set fire."
The king of Beijing immediately understood the clue, looked at Mrs. Gu and sneered: "Have you fed your conscience to the dog? Not to mention how merciful Mrs. Jia is to your family, but to say that there are dozens of women and children in this room, which one is not a close relative of your Gu family?" ? You actually had the heart to burn them to death? Strangely speaking, there is something wrong with the blood of the Mu family."
The king of Beijing County turned around and ordered: "Tie this crazy woman hand and foot, lock her up alone, and give her one meal a day, so she won't starve to death, so that she won't be fed up and make a disgusting appearance!"
Since Mrs. Gu did not give up after being detained, and wanted to set fire to the prisoner, the king of Beijing County also became impatient. Unfortunately, the medical books that His Majesty ordered him to look for have not yet been found.
The king of Beijing County had no choice but to come to Jia Lian for discussion: "Lord Jia, don't speak dark words in front of celebrities. This king is in trouble, so I ask Brother Jia Shi to help." Jia Lian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you are too polite. If you have something to do, just give orders, and Jia will not refuse if he can do his best."
The king of Beijing County said: "Medical books!"
Jia Lian frowned: "Medical books? What medical books?"
"The Du family's medical books, the Du family decided to give the medical books to the royal family first, but their ancestral secret books were stolen by the Gu family, and they exclusively begged the emperor to make decisions for him, saying that as long as they can avenge his grandfather and aunt, they are willing to dedicate the medical books to the royal family , as a repayment."
Jia Lian stretched out his hand in doubt: "The Gu family's medical books are extraordinary in themselves, so is it better than the medical books of the Imperial Hospital?"
It should be known that since the establishment of this dynasty, the emperor has searched everywhere for martial arts secret books and medical secret books for the sake of longevity. For a while, [-]% of the secret medical books on the rivers and lakes were searched into the palace.
When the Gu family presented the secret formula for giving birth, it was to catch up with this wave.
