Chapter 191: Sister Feng: Is this the fourth one?

 Rongqing Hall

Just when Mrs. Wang was saying that it was wrong to leave Jia Heng behind, and Jia Mu was trying to persuade her, Lin Zhixiao's family suddenly entered the inner hall with Ping'er.

Jia Mu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Ping'er, weren't you accompanying Girl Feng to check the accounts in front?"

In front of other people, Mrs. Wang also wiped her tears, while Xiren on the side helped Baoyu wipe the tears on her face.

Although Ping'er was surprised that Mrs. Wang and Baoyu's eyes were red, he was stunned for a moment and still said: "Old lady, madam, Uncle Heng and grandma were checking the accounts earlier, but the eldest uncle and eldest wife came over, and then Uncle Heng said, since it's not

Don’t worry, you might as well invite the old lady and your wife, Baoyu, to come with you and see how the servants in the house are using their hands to get Mo Gong’s money.”

"This..." Mother Jia's face changed, her surprised eyes gradually returned to normal, and she smiled and said, "I won't go there, let Baoyu and his wife go there together."

Even though she knew that Mrs. Wang and Baoyu were crying because of Jia Heng, Jia's mother still felt a little uncomfortable. The Rongqing Hall that used to be filled with laughter and laughter was now filled with mourning and crying.

It's not that Jia Mu hates Mrs. Wang and Baoyu, it's definitely not the case, but the old man has some awkwardness in his heart. This is basically the case with older people, who laugh but don't cry.

Baoyu opened his mouth and said, "Me neither..."

Ping'er added: "Uncle Heng also said that he would invite the second master to come over."

Baoyu: "..."

There is almost no need to think about it. If he doesn't come over, Uncle Heng will have no choice but to tell him, why doesn't Baoyu come over?

"Sister Lin and Third Sister are both in the front yard. I'll go over too," Baoyu said softly.

Mrs. Wang frowned, and now she had regained her composure. She looked at Jia Mu beside her and said, "Old lady, I'm going over."

"Go, go." Jia Mu waved her hand and said softly.

Seeing Mrs. Wang and Baoyu leaving with a bunch of maids and the mother-in-law, Jia Mu sighed heavily, not knowing whether she was asking Yuanyang or herself, and said, "Brother Heng, what on earth do you think?"

Yuanyang rubbed Jia Mu's shoulders and said, "Old lady, although Uncle Heng has become a bit tougher, he is not bad-hearted. Now he is helping to check the accounts."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "Girl, if I didn't know that he was kind-hearted, I wouldn't have..."

After a pause, his old eyes fell on Yuanyang's oval face with a slight smile, and he chuckled: "In a few years, why don't I give you to Brother Heng?"

When Yuanyang heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then felt ashamed, but he woke up in a moment and said: "Old lady, if you can live without me one day, I will still serve you until you are a hundred years old. What more will we have?"

Blessings come to you..."

Hearing this, Mother Jia quickly took Yuanyang's hand and said, "Silly boy, don't say such things that will ruin my mother-in-law's fortune. When you grow up, I will definitely find you a good family. I just wanted to..."

After saying that, Jia Mu also shook her head, smiled, and said, "It mainly depends on your future thoughts."

Originally, I wanted to wait until Baoyu was older, marry a wife, serve her for a few years, and then promise to be Baoyu's aunt.

"Although Brother Heng has a stricter temperament, he still seems to be caring. I promised him Yuanyang in the future. Yuanyang will care about me in the future. I can also let him take more care of Baoyu.

"Jia Mu looked at Yuanyang with a smile and thought.

Today's Emperor Sword, as well as Jia Heng's performance, Jia Mu also has some plans in her heart.

Of course, it is unknown whether the situation will change in the future due to the high tide in the court, as people's hearts are prone to change.

Yuanyang felt uncomfortable being looked at by Jia Mu and lowered her head.

Jia Mu smiled and said: "Okay, then I will serve my old lady for a few more years. No matter who says it, I won't give it to you."





In the front hall, Mrs. Wang and Baoyu were led by Ping'er to the front hall. They did not go in, but first sat in the tea room next to the wall with Daiyu, Tanchun and others, talking quietly.

I only heard a voice coming from the front hall, "The second master is here."

Mrs. Wang was shocked and looked up at Baoyu beside her.

Baoyu looked a little unnatural and said, "I... I'll just go to the front and have a look."

Mrs. Wang nodded and said warmly: "Don't talk nonsense when you get to the front. Watch more, listen more and talk less. Xiren, you can go with us."

Xiren said "Hey" and pulled Baoyu's sleeves. His eyes were gentle and he chuckled: "Second Master, go ahead."

Baoyu nodded, and under the watch of Daiyu and Tanchun, he opened the bead curtain and entered the front hall as if he were going to the battlefield.

At that time, in the front hall, the two accountants were already holding the account books carried in by the servants over the years. They flipped through the account books, the abacus crackled, and the brushes were recording and summarizing.

Methodical and orderly.

Jia Hengze and Jia Zheng were talking in the main hall, accompanied by Jia She.

Seeing Baoyu come in, Jia Zheng didn't say anything, just nodded at him, ignored him, and continued to talk to Jia Heng with a twisted face.

Baoyu was also very happy. Under the smiling faces of Zhou Rui's family, he found a chair in the corner and sat down, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.

Over here, Jia She looked at the two chatting happily with a smile on her face, and sneered in her heart. He, the second brother, likes to talk more than practice, and now he is on the same level as Jia Heng's son.

People who are seeking fame and reputation talk about the Classics of the Two Han Dynasties and the history of the Three Kingdoms, but they are quite similar.

Jia She was full of complaints about his mother's preference for his second brother Jia Zheng. In the 75th chapter of Dream of Red Mansions, Jia She also told a joke about his parents' partiality at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

Jia Heng put down the tea cup and asked, "Master Zheng went to the morning court today?"

Jia Zheng was wearing a Sichuan brocade round-neck Confucian shirt and a scholar's square scarf on his head. His fair and elegant face was slightly unhappy. After hearing this, he put down the tea cup on the small table beside him and said: "Zi Yu

, at today's court meeting, the imperial censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate impeached Niu Jizong of Zhenguo Gong's Mansion for his incompetence in running the army and his careless generals, which made it difficult for him to be the governor of Guoyong Camp in the capital. The emperor was angry and criticized him, and all the officials in the government and the public also criticized him.

, now Niu Jizong has resigned from his post and is introspecting behind closed doors."

When Jia Heng heard this, his eyes moved slightly, and he secretly thought that the emperor had already taken action, it was so fast.

Jia She was on the sidelines and had free time to listen to the two of them chatting about knowledge. When he heard these words, his expression changed drastically and he asked in shock: "Brothers from the Niu family have been suspended?"

A few days ago, Jia She had been looking for Niu Jizong and Qiu Liang to deal with Jia Heng. Now that he suddenly heard this news, he was frightened.

Sister Feng on the side also blinked her eyes and looked at Jia Heng, Jia Zheng and others.

Niu Jizong is the grandson of Gong Qing in Zhenguo. He is now a first-class uncle. He and Rong Ning are known as the Four Kings and Eight Dukes. They can be regarded as old relatives. His wife, Zhu, also has many contacts with Jia's family. Sister Feng entertains her.

Sister Feng was not without envy of the Zhu family who had a first-class imperial title, and the grace and respectability she had when traveling to and from Jia's house.

But, hearing what the second master said, it seems that the Niu family has been accused by the palace?

Jia Zheng sighed and said: "Fortunately, except for errands, the title does not hinder me. I will recover in the future, and there will always be opportunities."

I want to melt in Chongrui with you for a long time

Officials have their ups and downs, and they may be dismissed one day, but they will be reinstated. This is what happened in Jia Yucun, who took the path of Lin Ruhai and the Jia family, and is now an official in Jinling.

Gu Xun

Jia Heng said coldly: "Niu Jizong was incompetent in running the army, and his military discipline was corrupt. He even openly slept with prostitutes in the camp. It is not surprising that he was removed from his errand by the Holy Emperor."

As he spoke, he glanced at Jia She, whose expression changed, smiled, and said: "Sir, Qiu Liang, the commander of the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities, has been dismissed by the Holy Spirit for dereliction of duty and incompetence. Today I will supervise the Five Cities."

During the yamen affairs, it was discovered that this beast was corrupt and perverting the law, so he has been sent to the Metropolitan Procuratorate. I think there will be an order to ban him soon."

Jia Zheng, Jia She, Sister Feng: "..."

Jia She's expression changed, and there was a touch of fear in his heart. The hand holding the tea cup was trembling slightly, and he lowered his head without saying a word.

As for Sister Feng, the pink and phoenix eyes under Liu Ye's thin eyebrows were shining with hope, looking at the young man with complicated eyes.

Somehow, a strange thought came to my mind. If I include Brother Zhen, the third-class general in Dongfu, there are already two people who have done bad things in the hands of Uncle Heng.

Jia Zheng sighed silently and said: "I also heard about the Qiu family's affairs at the Ministry of Works. His petty officials colluded with young gangsters to beat and maim the candidates who were taking the exams, and suspended them pending examinations. There is nothing to say. I just went to court.

At that time, the Prince of Beijing asked me to give Zi Yu a message. After all, Niu Jizong is an old relative of mine. Zi Yu wanted to see if he could send me a memorial to help me say a few words. It was said that Zi Yu also led his troops to suppress the enemy.

Defeat the Cuihua Mountain bandits..."

After Jia Zheng said these words, Sister Feng's pink and white jade face changed slightly, Danfeng's eyes flickered, and she was shocked, could it be that Niu Jizong's bad thing was also the Heng brother, so this is the third one?

Thinking of this, Sister Feng's heart trembled. She squinted at the young man and felt a strange feeling in her heart.

This Uncle Heng is the head of the Jia clan, so he would kill an old relative of the Jia clan, right?

As for Mrs. Wang, Tanchun and Daiyu in the inner hall, they were all confused as they listened to the words coming from outside.

For example, although Mrs. Wang does not have Sister Feng's rich association ability, she still vaguely feels that according to the master's wishes, the unlucky Niu and Qiu are both related to the man in Dongfu?

There is an evil nature...

Jia Heng looked indifferent and said in a clear voice: "Second Master, I can't write this memorial. It's a fact that he is incompetent in running the army. Now that he has been taken away from the job by the Holy Emperor and is idle at home, it is not a bad thing. It is better than what he did in the future.

It would be much better to lead an army on an expedition, but one general is incompetent, and the three armies are exhausted, or the troops are lost, or the generals are lost, or the country is humiliated by the loss of an army, and then it is better to be punished by the saints and imprisoned, or to annihilate the three tribes."

When Jia She heard this, his face turned ugly. He glanced sideways at the young man with an "arrogant" face. He felt resentful, incompetent and derelict in his duties. Did he lose his teacher and humiliate the country?

Just you, Jia Heng, son, one of you is a young hero, and they, all the old relatives of the Jia family, are just the losers?

Jia Zheng's expression paused, and he said thoughtfully: "Zi Yu, Prince Beijing has said that he would like to have an appointment with you in the mansion in a few days."

Jia Heng said in a clear voice: "I have been busy with official duties recently and have no time to visit the prince. If there are official matters, the prince can go to the Five Cities Military and Horse Department to talk. If there are private matters, the prince and I are both ministers of the Holy Emperor. There is no private matter."

These were Xu Lu's words at the time, to temporarily respond to the news that Wang Shui Rong of Beijing had arrived at the right time.

Does he want to risk his own life more often and interact with King Shuirong of Beijing?

In the eyes of the emperor, letting him turn a small sect into a large sect is to distinguish the power of the Jia family. If he imitates Prince Teng and cannot grasp it clearly, there is no guarantee that he will not end up "died of a sudden illness on the way to Beijing".

Jia Zheng's face paused, nodded, and said: "What Zi Yu said is true."

When Jia She heard this, he felt disgusted in his heart. He didn't even give the prince face? Did you really make a third-class general and just stick your tail up to the sky?

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Ziyu is busy with official duties these days. If the prince has something to do, he can come to the palace."

This is a bit weird.

You are a third-class general, so why don't you let the prince come to visit you?

Jia Heng glanced at Jia She, picked up the tea cup on the side, and took a sip. He didn't respond at all.

Jia Zheng looked silent, pretending not to hear his brother's words, and said doubtfully: "There is actually another matter in the Yamen today. The King of Qi is demoted from a prince to a county king. I don't know what the situation is?"

Nowadays, Jia Zheng is still relatively keen on politics. It was only after he became a concubine in Yuanchun and became interested in studying politics and failed in his official career that he became indifferent.

Jia Zheng's casual words fell in Jia She's ears, and he looked at Jia Zheng in surprise and murmured: "King Qi, isn't he the eldest son of the Holy Emperor? He is a vassal of the country and suddenly reduced to a county king. Is it possible?

Did something big happen?"

Listening to a few "men" casually chatting about the court situation, Sister Feng's beautiful eyes were shining, and her smooth and white face was as bright and beautiful as the beauty of March.

This is something that Sister Feng, who has been raised as a boy by her family since she was a child, has never been exposed to. Even if she hears only a few words and scratches, she has a strange attraction.

This is like the excitement that later generations will feel after hearing about the key government for the first time, let alone listening to such a high-end tea party.

Jia Heng looked calm and said: "The King of Qi is now studying behind closed doors to cultivate his moral character. He is very affectionate and it is not easy to reveal it to the two masters. It's just that the eldest master, whether it is the Qi Fan or the Chu Fan, all the ministers in my house must abide by it."

Duty."

Jia She: "..."

Hearing this, Shen Sheng's face changed, and his eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty. What do you mean there is something hidden? Does this kid know about it?

Jia Zheng also looked at Jia Heng in surprise and murmured: "Is there something hidden inside?"

Jia Heng said: "The vassal king of the country is involved in the royal family's reputation, so I can't say much. In short, my family should ignore these things. You must know that there is no way to bring good or bad luck, you can only bring it on yourself."

As a first-class general, Jia She represents the face and flag of the Jia family to a certain extent. If he dares to intervene and seize the title of direct descendant, it will easily bring disaster to the Jia family.

That's really a typical example of a man who loves to play even if he is willing to do anything.

Jia Zheng nodded solemnly and said, "What Zi Yu said is true."

During the Longzhi period, the struggle to seize the direct heir was so brutal that the violent prince and the prince were both abolished. Even the elder brother in the East Mansion was killed for it.

His Jia family can no longer be involved in such sinister things.

Jia She said firmly: "I don't mind the patriarch, I'm awake enough."

But feeling the warning in Jia Heng's tone, he felt a little annoyed.

This kind of irritation is different from the previous resentment towards Jia Heng for violating his dignity, but a kind of irritation like "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

what?

After all, how many days have you been an official?

While your boy was playing on the mud bed in the old house in Liutiao Hutong, I was already chatting and laughing with the eunuch of the palace and the governor of Ping'an Prefecture.

Sister Feng, who was listening to the three "men" mentioning the court situation, looked at Jia Heng unwaveringly. Her pink face was beautiful, Danfeng's eyes were full of charm, and her heart was trembling slightly. Could it be that King Qi

He was demoted to a county king, and he and his brother Heng...

This is...the fourth one?

Well, I can’t think about it anymore.

Sister Feng subconsciously did not dare to think about it anymore. She curled her eyelashes and cast a shadow, hiding her trembling thoughts and nipping the budding trend of breaking the embankment.
