The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

The two carrier pigeons that flew out from Changfeng Building were hunted down, and the letter box was taken from the pigeon's legs.When I opened it, I found that the two letters were exactly the same. I prepared two of them because I was afraid that the pigeon would encounter an accident halfway.In the letter, words such as "Su Zhidi Jia Sheng" and "Youjian Tea Shop" were not uncommon in the letter, and "grabbing business" was described as "cutting off the canal at the head of my field and forcing me to leave my hometown".At the end, he said, "There are so many vicious dogs in Supu that it is hard to get in, please help Liang Gong quickly."

Jia Cong looked at it many times, and thought: "Looking at it this way, old man Lu is helpless for the time being."

Chen Ruijin said: "For help... Are the 'good bows' in their hands very 'good'?"

Jia Cong said: "Just in case, the yamen must prepare vicious dogs."

"It's good to have a dog from a young age. I'm afraid it's too late to buy it now."

Jia Cong said with a smile: "While raising them, I borrow a few."

The next day, the Su family sent a capable steward to buy puppies; Jia Cong went to Uncle Yang's house to borrow four big dogs, and he also borrowed four nephews and grandchildren along the way.Although their children have been in private schools for a few years, they can only read a few words.Excluding the section of high martial arts skills, they were originally rich men in the outskirts of the city, and all four of them were barbarians.Su Tao is recruiting talents these two days, and there are many scholars who have recommended themselves.Occasionally, when they meet with Yang family's children, they often cast cold eyes on them.

Su Cheng disguised himself as a man and saw it, so he simply invited the most rustic-looking boy from the Yang family named Yang Deshou, changed into a clean dusty gray cloth shirt, and held a big broom in his arms. Su Tao summoned the scholars to the room.Anyone who looks at Yang Deshou coldly, no matter how well written the article is, don't want it.Although Yang Deshou's appearance is rustic, he had to be naughty at the age and he had a big heart, so he agreed.Seeing that so many scholars were willing to come and do business for him, Su Tao was a bit elated; however, when Yang Deshou stopped there, there were only a handful of people who would not give him cold eyes!When the members of the Yang family came over, Su Tao had seen what they were capable of, and knew that they were much better than ordinary bodyguards.Can't help sighing: "How few people don't judge people by appearance!"

Jia Cong comforted and said: "There are many shallow people. In fact, it is not necessary to use gentlemen in the government office. But now I don't know which monsters and ghosts are making trouble for you in this office. The villain is easy to be used. It is better to be picky. Try to please the gentleman well."

On the one hand, the government recruited talents, and on the other hand, it made people post notices in the streets and alleys, and invited storytellers to teahouses and restaurants to publicize the "Zhuzi Street Wangpu Auction".Naturally, the Xie family has more than forty properties in Jiangxi.Su Zheng made another list for Chen Ruijin, and asked tentatively: "The Yang family, maybe they can stay in the government office?"

Chen Ruijin thought for a while and said: "Their family has lived on the green forest road for generations, and they are not used to being restrained. I will ask one of them to go with me on business tomorrow, and try to arouse his interest."

Afterwards, she really led Young Brother Yang out.Because Xie's family didn't have a shop to do business seriously, the people complained a lot; when their property was seized, the people were so happy that they beat drums and gongs.The child got a lot of compliments and was very honored, and he was very happy when he went back.Chen Ruijin secretly smiled: there is a joke.

After several days of investigation, most of Xie's properties left in Nanchang Mansion have been checked, and the magistrate's yamen has also recruited a lot of people, so they can work for the time being.Su Tao then posted a notice to ask the people if they had any grievances.This time it's amazing.In the early morning of the next day, complainants and mourners were standing outside the government office crying.Jia Cong saw that even though Su Tao was a god, it was absolutely impossible for him to finish trying so many cases in three to five days.Hastily slipped back to Su's mansion through the back door, went to Su Cheng to get two stacks of colored paper, set up a case and sat next to the big stone lion in the east, and wrote pen and ink on the case.He also called two newly recruited clerks to watch.

The yamen servant with a loud and clear voice came out and shouted: "Fathers and folks, Mr. Su knows that everyone has grievances. Don't worry. The sky net is fully restored, and the wicked will always have retribution. Mr. Su can't do so much in a day or two. You don’t have to queue up day and night for the case. Please come to this Mr. Jia to register and get your number plate!”

Others didn't know what the number plate was, so they gathered around to ask.Jia Cong picked up a pen and wrote "Ling Ling Yi" on a piece of red paper, and "Ling Ling Yi" on another piece of yellow paper, and asked, "Who wants to sue?"

Everyone shouted: "My lord! I'm going to sue!"

Jia Cong looked at it: "Yes. Each family sends a person to line up with me." Everyone lined up in a row.He asked the first middle-aged man, "What is this gentleman's name?"

The man said: "The villain is not Mr., his name is Xiong Sanwu."

"Mr. Xiong, who do you want to sue? Tell me roughly."

The man wept and said: "The little girl was snatched by Fangchun Louqiang..."

Jia Cong originally wanted to write an outline, but his hands froze when he heard the words: "Fangchun Tower is... a kiln?"

A woman next to her also cried and rushed over and said, "Our family never owed them any debts! It's just that the girl was born well. They wrote an IOU indiscriminately and grabbed the imprint of my man's hand forcibly. My child was taken away... we only have this one child..." The couple cried in unison.

Jia Cong took a deep breath and didn't recover for a long time.Nai shook his head vigorously, and asked, "Is your child still in Fangchun Building?" The woman nodded.Jia Cong turned around and ordered a guard, "Go and tell the third grandma later, let's put the rest aside for the time being, and seal the Fangchun Building first."

After a while, Chen Ruijin came out to ask what was the matter; Jia Cong said in a low voice.Chen Ruijin nodded, led a few people, and let the Xiong family lead the way to Fangchun Tower.Jia Cong was stunned for another half a day before Fang asked the next question.The latter one was robbed of [-] mu of land in the outskirts of the city, and the person who robbed the land was a household official under the former magistrate.Jia Cong wrote an outline on the two colored papers, and handed over the red one to himself, while the yellow one was sent to Su Tao's desk by the yamen servant.But he said to the man: "Wait. You are No. [-]. After Mr. Su finishes asking about this, someone will come out and call No. [-]. You take this red note and go in." The man called a thousand Step back.

After Jia Cong wrote five numbers, he told the sixth one: "Master may not be able to complete the trial of the previous cases today. You have the number plate and come back tomorrow. No one else can get in front of you anyway." The man Thank you so much for leaving.

When No. 14 was written, Chen Ruijin came back.Jia Cong asked the two civil servants beside him, "Do you know what to do?"

One said: "Got it!"

Another said: "Mr. Jia is really a man of genius! Such a method can also be thought of."

Jia Cong said: "It's just that it's impossible to let so many people crowd at the gate of the yamen. Remember, when you encounter something like the Fangchun Tower just now—that is, the victim is still alive and is being persecuted right now. Let's take action a day earlier." If it can save others from suffering for a day, come in and tell me." The two clerks nodded repeatedly.Jia Cong and Chen Ruijin entered the Yamen together.

Chen Ruijin saw that there was something wrong with his expression, so he pulled him to a place where there was no one behind and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jia Cong froze for a while and said, "I didn't think there was anything wrong with King Yan putting the whole of Jiangxi under banditry - after all, he needed a puddle of muddy water to hide the Supreme Emperor. I just heard about Fangchun Tower... "He shook his head slowly and said, "The whole province has been in a state of anarchy. For more than ten years, ordinary people have no way to live."

Chen Ruijin said: "It's not that chaotic. Fangchun Tower is the property of the Xie family, Mr. Su didn't find out. There are many such things in Beijing."

Jia Cong was stunned: "The Xie family actually robbed the women? Xie Jing and Dingchenghou's mansion can't do that."

Chen Ruijin wondered: "Are you confused? These trivial matters are done by the slaves themselves, how do the masters know? It's just a matter of checking the accounts every month and getting money. How can you ask how sister Kiln got here?"

Jia Cong smiled wryly and said, "It's true. In the early years, the slaves in our mansion also did many unreasonable things." He added, "Although there is no chaos or order, from this festival, King Yan sacrificed the people of the whole province. Daily life, you can’t be regarded as a enlightened master.”

Chen Ruijin said: "The Ming Lord can only take care of the general situation. 'The people are noble and the emperor is the least important' are just two plain old sayings, which sound nice. Didn't you understand it many years ago?"

Jia Cong stroked his forehead: "I have understood the truth since I was a child. It is said in the book that water can carry a boat and capsize it, but in fact it is easy to carry a boat and capsize it. It's just... just now I heard the Xiong family crying. Forget it, this is synaesthesia, like listening to an opera or watching a movie, it will be fine after a while." He pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled.Chen Ruijin sighed lightly, and shook his hand; Jia Cong put his other hand on it and shook his wife's instead.After holding the meeting, Jia Cong asked Fangchun Tower how it was.

Just now when Chen Ruijin led the people there, the old bustard immediately turned pale with fright, and plopped down on his knees.Chen Ruijin took advantage of the situation and cheated her a few times.It turned out that these days Su Tao sent people to search the property of Xie's family, and the old bustard felt that sooner or later he would find his own house, thinking that it would be his turn.Since the new prefect sincerely wanted to blame the previous prefect, it was useless to deny it, so she didn't lie and said what she asked.Serious calculations, people who are full of buildings force good people into prostitution.

After hearing this, Jia Cong frowned and said: "Just now I wrote a dozen number plates, each of which is related to the Xie family. Why is there nothing else? Could it be that other than the Xie family and their henchmen, others are not doing evil? It's unlikely. "

Chen Ruijin smiled and said: "The old bustard told me just now that she was working as a little old bustard in a dark brothel, and some local ruffians robbed her of her property. She went to the government office to file a lawsuit. Xie Jing returned her justice, so she acted on Xie Jing's behalf. Whales give their lives."

"Ah?" Jia Cong was a little confused, "What does Xie Jing mean?"

Chen Ruijin said: "Actually, Prefect Xie has been in Jiangxi these years, except that his family often does evil, he is not a bad prefect."

"Except for him and his henchmen, he takes care of others breaking the law?"

Chen Ruijin nodded: "Xie Jing probably regards Jiangxi as the seventh prince's fiefdom, and he himself is like a relative of the emperor, born outside the law."

Jia Cong was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "This is the root cause of every family wanting to send their daughters into the palace. They all feel that if a prince's grandson and nephew can do whatever they want, the law can't follow them." Dream. Since ancient times, there are indeed many princes who act recklessly in the fief, and Uncle Wang has seen a few lawless ones..." He suddenly closed his mouth.After a while, he said, "It seems that there are not many..."

Chen Ruijin said: "If the Supreme Emperor is in power at this moment, it's nothing like Xie Jing who doesn't offend someone who can't be offended. Nothing else matters, he just shouldn't force scholars to make their families The Four Treasures of the Study. God knows who will come out of the scholars? The rest is up to him. In this way, being a relative of the emperor is indeed more profitable than being an official and doing business."

"That's right. After all, there are only a handful of emperors in each dynasty, and only one Bao Zheng has been born in thousands of years." Jia Cong stretched his waist, "It's almost noon. Let's go out to eat! " Then he pulled Chen Ruijin out.

Just when I quietly walked into the lobby of the government office, I heard a commotion outside.The two looked at each other and walked out quickly.I saw that there were still many people queuing up outside the door to take the number plates for the complaint, and the number of people was still large and chaotic.Everyone raised their necks and looked up.There was the sound of fighting on the roof, and a group of figures flickered.

Jia Cong, a Muggle, couldn't see clearly at all, so he pulled a clerk who wrote the number plate and asked, "Can you see clearly?"

The clerk shook his head: "I only saw a shadow."

"Then what are you looking at!" Jia Cong muttered.He asked again, "What's going on?"

"The little official doesn't know. The little official was just writing the number plate for someone, when he suddenly heard several sounds, like the sound of a weapon falling to the ground. Looking up, he saw an old man in gray clothes fighting with a man in blue shirt . A moment later they hit the roof, and then I couldn't see clearly."

As soon as the civil official finished speaking, there was a "dong" sound, and a man in green clothes smashed hard between the two stone lions at the gate of the yamen.Chen Ruijin narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "A few days ago, those two groups of people came to fight."

"what?"

"He stood behind the dwarf."

Jia Cong frowned: "Are you here to silence again?"

Just as he was talking, the old man on the roof jumped down.Jia Cong smiled and leaned forward: "Hi Uncle! Uncle has worked hard! Let me beat your back for you~~" This old man is the true Taoist.After returning from the West to watch Jia Cong get married, he returned to Tianning Temple to rest for a while.Jia Cong thought that everything was unclear now, and the people in the green forest had great powers. He was afraid that something might go wrong in the magistrate's yamen, so he invited his old man to help secretly take precautions.

Zhen Ming waved his hand: "That's all. Your arm doesn't have any strength." Jia Cong made a grimace.Zhenming pointed at the man in the green shirt and said, "Just now he squeezed four darts in both hands. Although he didn't know who he wanted to hit, there are many people here, I was afraid he would hurt ordinary people, so I stopped him."

"Uncle is mighty~~Uncle is really the patron saint of the people!"

Zhenming gave him a sideways glance: "Go, don't want to flatter."

Jia Cong coaxed his elders to never be ashamed: "There is no random shooting! It is a hard fact. If you are not old, this dart will not know who it hurts."

The man was already dazed by Zhenming's beating, lying on the ground unable to move.Chen Ruijin glanced at the four darts on the ground, and picked them up one by one: "They are all poison darts."

Jia Cong immediately shouted: "Look! Uncle said that he saved four lives."

But someone behind him said: "It's not four, it's one." The doorman came out step by step from the door, and bowed deeply to Zhenming, "Thank you old knight for saving your life."
