The Honest Man of the Red Chamber

"I asked you to trouble the Jia family, why haven't there been any news yet!" The man asked sharply with a gloomy face. "Don't you want to do your best to be loyal to the master? Don't you want to live?"

Why is it so unsatisfactory what the master told me?

Wang Ziteng was not easy to touch, it was a hard stubble, and he avoided it even twice.Right now, he is still in charge of the Nine Gates, so the master doesn't dare to touch them lightly.But the whole Jia family doesn't even have a full-time job, they are all dudes of the second generation ancestors, why didn't any trouble happen?Who told Wang Ziteng that he didn't even have a son before and had a daughter married!Had to start with his relatives first.

Several people knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "My lord, my lord, I am wronged! It's not that the little ones can't think of a way, it's really a mouse pulling a turtle, and there is nowhere to start!"

"Fart, that Jia Zhen is as lustful as her life. When she was a teenager, she had fun with all the girls in the family. When Miss Ma's family married, she had a lot of trouble and said she was going back to her mother's house. Ma's family I even had a pinch with the Jia family, who doesn't know! You wouldn't find a prettier woman? Hook him out for a drink, and then arrange for some official's son to compete with him? At that time, as long as he makes a move , I will definitely kill the other party's son, and come out because of the prostitute's death?"

The man snorted coldly, "Anyway, it's not like he hasn't done this before, if Jia Zheng from the Rongguo Mansion hadn't arrived early and let the local government in Jinling seize Shuiyue Nunnery to punish him, how could he have won the title so happily? Last year, didn’t he go to the wild prostitution house outside and was arrested and imprisoned? You don’t want to find a way to catch such a big handle? "

Li Renfu, who was kneeling, immediately defended, "My lord, it is because of this, that we can't do anything at all! After being arrested once, Jia Zhen was severely detained in the mansion by his father Jia Jing. He If you want to go out, you can! A dozen of the servants sent by Jia Jing followed. You can chat with people, but you can drink tea. Regardless of Jia Zhen's face. Let alone through his former drunken friends, he can't be called out at all, even the disciples have directly said that they are all on the blacklist. Going in and asking the new grandma to sue, who can bear it? Even if you want to send someone inside, you can’t do it. It is said that he was arrested and taken to Shuntian Mansion. The old ancestors of Jia Mansion were very angry. Jia Jing was punished every day I have to write ten chapters on Inspirational Sutras. In order to prevent Jia Zhen from messing around, even if the second wife of Rongfu had a child, she didn't buy a man for the mansion. !"

Li Renfu said with a bitter face, "I can't call anyone out, and I can't send them in. After all, Jia's mansion is the mansion of the Duke of Houmen...we can't forcefully break in and pull Jia Zhen out!"

Too obvious is not okay.

"What about Jia She? Doesn't he love antique fans and things like that? Be a fairy dance, let him fancy it, but don't sell it to him. Lord Waiting, a first-class general, can you bear that anger?" Something will definitely happen." Tsk, anyway, Jia Zhen is notoriously lustful, and Xinjun is not unaware of it, but if you really want to say, what is it?It's not that he can't afford women, if this person gives up, just give up.

The other person knelt and took a step forward, "My lord, Jia She, Jia She is not a fool! Besides, he spends every day in the Zhenwei Restaurant, and doesn't go anywhere except for errands. That Zhenwei There is a room in the museum dedicated to him. You may not know that the entire wall is full of good fans, and each side has a history! Someone has been eyeing him for a long time and wants to put maggots on him, but no one is as good as him He has dismantled the dioramas of several waves of people. This made him famous, and attracted many people to see it! Not to mention the literati, there are also some old princes and relatives, although they are just A little bit about the royal family, but who would really dare to mess with it? The Zhenwei Restaurant is also opened by Wang Ziteng’s sister, Mrs. Wang, whoever patrols the streets does not go there more than ten times a day, for fear that something will happen, who will offend them start?"

"Yes! My lord! Besides, the Zhenwei Restaurant is really expensive..." The man wanted to cry, but he accidentally broke a teacup, which turned out to be a kiln!As a result, the tea seat fee was only two taels, but he had to pay 500 taels. It was because he didn't do it on purpose, but just made an unintentional mistake, so he paid one out of ten. Everyone in the restaurant booed him, saying that if you don’t know the goods, don’t come to Zhenwei Restaurant, and embarrass their men, “Once you enter the door and take a seat, you will pay five taels of silver! Just order the cheapest tea, and don’t even ask for the simplest refreshments , sit hard from morning to night, and it costs more than ten taels of silver for several people in a day, but this kind of thing can't be done often, people's business is very good, if they don't order something, they have to come up and ask politely, 'Is it right? Is the tea not to your liking? Or which dim sum is not to your liking..." After a series of words, those many people looked at them, and they were ashamed to death."

The man laughed back angrily, "Shame, is it short of that little money? Don't you know how to order a few dishes and let Yu Shi go to impeach him?"

"Last time, the last time Mr. Jin ginsed, the emperor ignored it. Later, he invited a few familiar censors to ginseng, and the emperor asked them, 'You know the price so well, do you want to eat it yourself? Passed? Otherwise, how can you impeach the property of the wife of the official’s family without factual basis? Since you have tasted it yourself, where did your money come from? Since you have money to go to the Zhenwei Restaurant to eat food, is it owed? Can the official bank of the Ministry of Household be paid off? 'Who, who dares to participate!"

The emperor made it clear that he took the Zhenwei Pavilion as a touchstone, and if he wanted to participate, he had to pay off the debt he owed first.How many people in the court do not owe money to the Ministry of Households, at least thousands of dollars.When the emperor was the prince before, those people opposed him and refused to pay back. They made trouble with the emperor Daxing, and finally nothing happened.Now that he is the emperor, he is even more afraid to pay back.What are civil servants afraid of? It's not that they are afraid of losing their integrity, so they can only stiffen their necks and be mighty and unyielding.But I won't fight against the new king again, and be an official with my tail tucked away.

The man pointed, "Well, what about Jia Zheng? What about the others?"

"Jia Zheng was transferred to Zhezi before, but the emperor didn't approve it! He didn't say anything about sending him, so he was an idler. He didn't even know where to go. He was a pedantic scholar and rarely went out. .In addition, maybe it was rumored last time that he doted on his concubine and killed his wife, so Wang Ziteng cleaned up and sent several masters to watch him, and two of the cleanups were sent away, so he didn't go out."

"His son Jia Zhu, thinking about preparing for the exam, is hanging on the beam and studying hard."

"Everything else is too small, and I can't arrange it."

"The rest of the surnamed Jia, some wealthy people are old and prudent, and their family traditions are strict. Those who are not successful are either in Tiekan Temple or have returned to Jinling. If they make some troubles, I am afraid that the emperor will ignore these thieves. Committing a life lawsuit has nothing to do with Ningrong and Rongfu."

"The servants of Jia's family are very tight-lipped, no one dares to talk nonsense."

"Last time, a big butler in Jia's mansion was beheaded at Caishikou, and the amnesty has not been released. Who would dare!" Who wants to die?

Hearing this, the man immediately sat up.

The master has always been good at starting troubles with grass snakes and gray lines. He can quietly hide behind the scenes, and he can have both sides.

This Jia's family still seems to be leaking everywhere and no man is up to the challenge, so why is it so difficult to attack?

^^

The autumn of July just passed, and before the announcement of the list, Jia Zheng received the imperial decree, asking him to set off before September to take up the post of chief secretary in Shanxi.

Mother Jia was overjoyed and surprised. It is a good thing that the youngest son has been sent to a foreign post. It is a good thing that the emperor values ​​him.But I was also worried that if he went, if he couldn't handle the errands, he would lose his job.

The child travels thousands of miles and the mother is worried!

Just as she was worried, Wang Guizhi told her that if she wanted to go to the post with Jia Zheng, that would be fine, as it would be impossible if there was no one who could take care of her reliably.But what annoyed her the most was that her daughter-in-law wanted to take all the children with her!

They all go, not only Jia Zhu Yuanchun, but also Baoyu Meiyu, and even the youngest brother who is not even one year old must go with him!

What is this for!What does she want to do!

"How dare you have such an idea?" Mother Jia snorted with anger on her face.

It was the first time Wang Guizhi saw Mother Jia so angry, but she still had to do it, and she had found the best reason, so she immediately knelt down.

Seeing the second wife like this, the maids all backed out.

Jia's mother was a little soft-hearted. The second daughter-in-law has always been very sensible. She turned her head and said, "Tell me your reason."

Great, as long as you are willing to listen, you will not be afraid.

"Please forgive me, old lady." Wang Guizhi swallowed lightly, this is related to her dream, taking the children on a trip, no matter what, failure is not allowed.

"Say."

"Old lady, do you know why the master was suddenly appointed the chief secretary of Shanxi? You know, if this foreigner is not someone the emperor values, how can he easily send a provincial official. His diligence is valued by the emperor, but why is the master only appointed a chief secretary instead of the governor of Shanxi? You want to see it, this is the weirdness!"

Jia's mother was stunned when she heard that, yes, if the chief secretary wants to obey the governor's order, wouldn't that mean that the new daughter-in-law is on top of her mother-in-law...

"My lord has done a good job, and the credit may be handed over to whoever the emperor wants to use. That's all right! But if the job is not done well... I'm afraid, I'm afraid it will be a disaster for the family."

Mother Jia was so frightened that her hands trembled, "You, what you said is true!"

"My brother asked my sister-in-law to tell me this." Wang Guizhi smiled wryly. She really didn't lie. What Jia Zheng did this time was really not an easy job. The Qian Mansion is about to do a major event. Shanxi is a land of corruption, with a history of corruption and a deficit of more than 300 million taels of treasury silver. When the first-class master takes office, recovering the deficit is his top priority. But officials from all over Shanxi protect each other , the master is not from Shanxi, and he was only working as a job in the Ministry of Industry before. It is not easy to recover local officials, let alone make up for the deficit while paying taxes in time. Last year, there was a drought, but this year I don’t know How about it. This job is extremely difficult, and besides, the master is only a chief secretary..."

"What can I do! What can I do!"

Jia's mother immediately worried about Jia Zheng, her poor son.

Wang Guizhi continued, "That's why I dare to say that I took the children to work abroad."

"Well, what do you say? Since it's so dangerous, you should stay at home with your child!"
