Chapter 440 If you want to make it perish, you must first make it crazy
Rongqing Hall
After everyone had finished eating, they sat down again to drink tea and talk. Because there had just been a scene, Shi Ding's wife didn't want to stay long, so after eating, she said goodbye and left Jia's house.
Mother Jia looked at Jia Heng beside her, with a somewhat unnatural look on her face, and whispered: "Brother Heng, Brother Lian, I am a confused man. Don't make him angry."
It was obvious that he was looking at Jia Heng with a cold face and said nothing while eating, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.
When everyone heard this, they all looked at the young man.
Jia Heng picked up the tea cup and said with an indifferent expression: "What do I have to do with him? He only cares about honor and enjoyment at home, and does not know that the situation outside is dangerous. The day before yesterday, there was someone in the court who wanted me to intervene. Isn't this right?
It’s hard to tell what political opponents will do.”
Directly relying on power to put pressure on the Ministry of Works is the stupidest approach. Even complaining to the emperor is a bit smarter than going to the Ministry of Works.
He can be put off by saying, "Director Jia is not in the Ministry of Works and does not know the affairs of the ministry and personnel."
As for Jia She, the relevant clues about his smuggling case have been investigated by the Jinyi Mansion since many years ago, and are now under the control of the Jinyi Mansion. If it were not for the purpose of fishing out Sun Shaozu and detecting the smuggling channels of Shanxi merchants, they could be found at any time
Send him on his way.
There are dry bones in the grave, why bother to breathe?
If you want to destroy it, you must first make it crazy.
And no matter how disgusting Jia She was, he would not directly take Jia She to prison like he did to Xue Pan, because this was not Jia She alone, but all the big houses in Rongguo were to be wiped out, so he could only
When someone else broke the news, he followed suit.
Jia Mu thought for a while and asked, "What does Brother Heng think about Baoyu and me?"
As soon as these words came out, Tanchun, Baochai, Daiyu, and Xiangyun all looked at the young man, and among them there was a quiet and even somewhat indifferent look.
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "The imperial censor Zuo Du of the Metropolitan Procuratorate should be able to uphold justice. Now the Beijing Procuratorate is just the beginning. We should wait for the changes in the court situation."
Jia Zhengning frowned, thought for a moment, and asked: "What Yu said the other day..."
Jia Heng said: "Master, the situation in the court is turbulent, and there are hidden mysteries. Sometimes it is to strike first and seize the advantage, sometimes it is to strike later and make the final decision. Master, please be patient. You must calm down when big things happen. Take a step back and say that the Holy Emperor is here."
How can we allow people to use the name of Beijing Police to cultivate party members and attack dissidents?"
Sometimes you need to give Jia Zheng some guidance. Otherwise, if something happens, everything will be in chaos. How can you still be in the officialdom?
Not to mention the sophisticated tactics of "letting a hundred flowers bloom, luring snakes out of their holes, watching with cold eyes, and controlling violence and quelling chaos".
No one in any Landlord game starts with "big and small kings and four twos, and fight them out together". They just wait for you to explode and make you lose several times in a row.
As the saying goes, the sword is forty meters long, and you can run thirty-nine meters first.
When Jia Zheng heard this, his heart was slightly shaken, and his face was lost in thought. He vaguely caught a clue, but couldn't figure out the reason. However, he felt guilty for his previous impetuousness and said, "What does Brother Heng mean?"
Jia Heng put down the tea cup and whispered: "Master, do as I say first and see how the Metropolitan Procuratorate behaves. We will make plans later."
This is to ask the Metropolitan Procuratorate to help endorse it. When the Ministry of Works case comes out in the future, this is the ironclad evidence that Jia Zheng has been "framed as a loyal person" and is unwilling to "complicit in the crime." When the dust settles, Jia Zheng himself can go through it again.
The details have been understood, and the level of strategy has been slightly improved.
First leave a shadow in his mind to avoid the suspicion of "playing a big game".
Seeing this, Mother Jia's expression changed. She turned around and glanced at Mrs. Wang, but seeing that Mrs. Wang looked gloomy, she didn't know what she was thinking and couldn't help herself.
I had to go see the three girls.
Tan Chunyingli looked at the young man with bright eyes, seeming to understand something important.
Jia Mu sighed in her heart. With so many people in the house, it would be better for a little girl to deal with official matters outside.
Baochai sat next to Aunt Xue, looked at the young man, her eyes flickered, and thought, wondering if Brother Heng would tell her the truth when she turned back to ask the whole story?
Sister Feng Danfeng blinked and smiled and said: "Old ancestor, since Brother Heng has his own ideas, you can rest assured. Brother Heng is the expert in official matters outside."
Jia Mu also smiled and said: "Yes, these officials who work outside have a delicate heart with seven orifices, and their ideas are right and ruthless."
In fact, Jia Mu just wanted Jia Heng to have an attitude. Seeing that Jia Heng was calm and composed, as if he had other plans, her anxious heart gradually relaxed.
Just for a moment, I wondered why I didn't just say it in front of Brother Lian and his father.
Of course, this doubt was only fleeting.
Sister Feng said with a smile: "Old ancestors, I understand that this is Miss Bao's son, so we should think about how to make it lively and lively."
Jia Mu smiled and said, "Baby girl, I just told your mother to invite a theater troupe to listen to the show. What do you think?"
"I listen to the old lady and mother." Baochai said softly with a slight smile on her plump and white face.
Jia Mu nodded. She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she always felt that Bao Yatou seemed to be much brighter in recent days.
"It's too old. After the Chinese New Year, I'm already fifteen years old." Jia Mu thought about it.
At this moment, Daiyu's bright eyes were condensed like water and dew, staring at the plump girl. She soon turned her gaze to the calm and leisurely young man, and sighed quietly in her heart.
The 21st of the first lunar month is the birth of Sister Bao, and the 12th of the second lunar month is her birth.
At this time, Jia Heng and Jia Zheng had finished eating, and Jia Zheng took the lead in leaving Rongqing Hall and returned to the study to rest.
Jia Heng didn't stay long. After a while, he said goodbye to Jia Mu and returned to Ningguo Mansion.
I just sat in the west study room for a while, picked up a book and flipped through it, when I heard a clear voice coming from behind the screen, "Brother Heng."
Jia Heng looked around and saw a slim girl turning around from the screen, wearing a long coat with apricot yellow silk surface and red and white floral embroidery on the collar, and a plain long skirt. Under the bright and warm spring sunlight of the Xuan window,
The lines of his face seemed to be shrouded in soft light, and under his handsome eyebrows, his bright eyes were full of joy.
Tan Chun seemed a little shy under the gaze of the young man across from him, but he always smiled brightly and cheerfully, and asked as he approached, "What is Brother Heng busy with?"
A period of time has passed since that day when Tanchun was drunk. Jia Heng did not take the initiative to mention Tanchun to avoid being shy. The girl just kept her shyness and happiness deep in her heart and usually did not show any signs of it.
Only in the dead of night, when I was tossing and turning, recalling that night when I was carried on my back, I felt shy, happy, sweet, and sad.
Jia Heng smiled and said warmly: "Arrange some official documents and go to Jinyi Mansion later. My sister will come and sit here."
Tan Chun sat down on the embroidered pier next to Jia Heng, picked up the teapot, and poured two cups of tea.
Jia Heng said: "I have something to tell you."
Baoyu was beaten a few days ago and Jia Huan was the instigator. He has never been able to find time to deal with it. Now he just happened to have a chat with Tanchun.
Tanchun felt a little panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked: "Brother Heng... what do you want to tell me?"
He thought to himself, are we going to talk about what happened that night?
Jia Heng picked up the tea cup and said, "It's Brother Huan's business."
Tan Chun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but for some reason he felt a little disappointed in his heart. He raised his bright face and asked, "Brother Huan, didn't he go to school the day before yesterday?"
Jia Heng recounted the story in a low voice.
After Tanchun heard this, his expression suddenly changed, his beautiful eyebrows stood up, and he said angrily: "Brother Heng, I'm going to find my aunt right now."
Saying that, he stood up suddenly, turned around and left.
"Sister, please don't be upset." Jia Heng had no choice but to hold the girl's sleeve. Fortunately, the silk was of high quality and there was no sound.
Jia Heng said softly: "At this time, my sister asked my aunt to accuse me, but she mostly refused to admit it, and instead became angry with my sister."
Tan Chun had his sleeve pulled by the young man, sat down again, and asked, "Brother Heng."
Jia Heng said: "I just want to talk to you about this matter. I'll wait until Brother Huan comes back from school before we discuss it again."
A look of determination appeared on Tan Chunyingmei's face, and she said in a clear voice: "Brother Heng, don't worry about me, just do what you want."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and smiled.
Tanchun's trust in him should be the highest, even to the point of blind worship.
Jia Heng picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and said: "I didn't rush to deal with it earlier because I didn't want to add fuel to the fire. Because of Baoyu's incident that day, the whole family was in unrest. The master and the old lady were very angry."
Under Tan Chunying's beautiful eyebrows, her bright eyes sparkled, and she said softly: "Brother Heng, I know everything."
At that time, the old lady was very angry, and maybe she would be embarrassed if she got angry at her mother. He... was worried that she would be involved.
She knows it all.
Jia Heng nodded and said nothing more.
However, Tanchun asked: "Brother Heng has some ideas in mind regarding this matter, right?"
Jia Heng smiled and said, "I knew I couldn't hide it from my third sister, so I had some plans."
Tanchun did not ask further and said softly: "It's just my wife. She still doesn't understand Brother Heng's painstaking efforts. Whether it's the eldest sister, the second brother Bao, or the master, Brother Heng has always been worried about it, and we all see it."
At this moment, the girl has already chosen the latter emotionally between Mrs. Wang and Jia Heng.
Jia Heng said: "It's human nature. She originally wanted to be a relative of the emperor, but she thought that she couldn't get what she wanted because of me. She was depressed and incomprehensible, and her prejudices were getting deeper. She simply didn't cause any trouble to me, so she didn't bother to care about it.
.”
Mrs. Wang's heart is tied to Yuanchun and Baoyu.
Tanchun looked at the young man, pursed his pink lips, and called softly: "Brother Heng..."
Jia Heng smiled, looked at the girl with bright eyes like water, and joked: "Okay, my sister is getting older now, so she can comfort adults."
Tan Chun's pale face was slightly hot, and she said in a charming voice: "Brother Heng, don't treat me like a child all the time."
Jia Heng's eyes were filled with warmth and a faint smile, and he said, "My sister is a big girl now."
It is unavoidable that I feel a little emotional, the essence of literary brilliance, and I forget the vulgarity after seeing it.
Tan Chun smiled and said, "Brother Heng, when will you teach me and Sister Yun how to ride horses? Last time, Sister Yun said that she hadn't learned yet, but I know that Brother Heng is usually busy and has no time."
Years ago, Jia Heng bought two horses and taught Xiangyun and Tanchun how to ride. He was busy celebrating the New Year and did not do much else.
Jia Heng smiled to himself and said, "Let's wait until tomorrow. I have to go to Jinyi Mansion later. My sister will help me sort out these official documents."
Some things still need to be arranged early.
Tanchun said "hmm" and didn't say much else. As the fragrance floated, he went to pick up the official document on the desk next to Jiaheng. The girl's delicate body already had some slender curves.
Jia Heng asked: "By the way, when will my sister give birth?"
Tanchun smiled and said, "It's the third day of March."
Jia Heng thought for a while and said, "There's still more than a month left. Third sister said, what should I give you?"
Tomorrow is Baochai's birth, February 12th is Daiyu, and March 3rd is Tanchun.
Tanchun didn't hesitate. Of course, Jia's words may have a sense of "good girl, what would dad give you?" He smiled and said: "Brother Heng, I looked at Sister Bao's head yesterday.
The crested hairpin on it is quite beautiful.”
Jia Heng's expression paused and he said, "You are still young, so..."
"I don't know what kind of hairpin Sister Xue has ever worn." Jia Heng frowned and quickly changed his words.
Well, I was almost bypassed by Tanchun.
Tan Chun said softly: "Brother Heng can just give you anything."
Jia Heng smiled and said: "My sister loves calligraphy, so I will look for a good copybook for my sister."
A hint of sadness flashed deep in Tan Chun's bright eyes, but his increasingly bright face was filled with a smile, and he said, "Okay."
She...she doesn't want any copybooks.
Jia Heng said nothing more, picked up the official documents, put them into a cowhide briefcase, and headed to Jinyi Mansion after a while.
…
…
The story is divided into two parts, but it is said that after receiving Jia She's "edict", Xing first went to find Jin Wenxiang and his wife, Yuanyang's brother and sister-in-law. Both of them were working in Jia's mother's house, one was a comprador and the other was in charge of laundry.
head.
When Mr. Xing told Jia She's intention, the couple were delighted and agreed.
After Yuanyang took Jia Mu's nap, she returned to the house to do some needlework.
The attacker on the side was also tracing flowers across a kang table. The girl was wearing a red silk jacket and a plain underskirt. She had a rose-red face and rosy blood. She was frowning slightly at this moment.
On the other side, Yuanyang bit off the needle and thread, raised his eyes to look at the girl opposite, and asked with a smile: "Why didn't you follow the eldest girl to the princess mansion?"
Hearing this, Xiren said with a smile: "The princess's mansion is different. Baoqin is a child who follows the eldest girl to the palace. He knows the rules in the palace, but it's hard for me to follow. It's okay now. No one is instructing me, so I can't."
Relaxed."
Yuanyang looked at Xiren, who had a somewhat "forced smile" on his face, and sighed: "We grew up together, and you were assigned to the second master Bao's room. At first, my sister Heping'er was happy for you. I thought...
…But now I don’t know what to do?”
When Xi Ren heard this, the smile on his face froze, he lowered his eyes and whispered: "Everyone has their own destiny. I was reading the book in the eldest girl's room. There was a sentence in it, which was quite interesting.
That said, there is a time in life that must be there, but there is no time in life, so don’t force it.”
Yuanyang comforted her and said, "Young lady is kind-hearted. If you serve her wholeheartedly for two years, you will find a good place for you in the future."
Xiren nodded and suddenly said with a smile: "Sister, you still talk about me? Where is sister?"
Yuanyang had a few freckles and an oval face. He blushed slightly and said, "What am I?"
Xiren chuckled and said: "I know that my sister is a high-spirited person. I'm afraid that even this whole house is not in my eyes, and only the East House..."
Yuanyang's cheeks turned red when he was told the central issue, and he stopped talking in embarrassment: "You little hoof, that one caught your eye, go and beg to be your aunt, and don't arrange things behind my back."
But in my mind, I couldn't help but think of what the young man once said in the past, "I'll ask the old lady for Sister Yuanyang tomorrow."
Later, there was no more words, as if they had never been spoken before. Now she became more and more solemn, there was no sister Yuanyang anymore, only Yuanyang.
Xi Ren was not annoyed and smiled, but there was some unreasonable bitterness in his heart.
While they were thinking about it, both of them listened to the noise outside.
It was clearly Mrs.
Mrs. Xing looked at the exquisite figure and thought to herself, no wonder the master has always been obsessed with this girl, she is a good childbearer.
Mrs. Xing smiled and entered the wing.
Yuanyang looked surprised when he saw it was Mrs.
The attacker also stood up and bowed.
"Xiren is here, too." Mrs.
Yuanyang didn't know the purpose of his visit, so he had to ask politely: "Thank you, Madam. Are you coming here sooner or later?"
Mrs.
Yuanyang frowned and her mind was spinning. She had already guessed half the reason why she was coming, so she couldn't answer the question at the moment.
Mrs.
I don’t think the family knows everything about it, but the daughters born in the whole family are not interested in the master. Knowing that you are upright and considerate, and know the cold and the heat, the master is interested. You go to the house to serve the master.
As soon as you pass the door, show your face, Aunt Feng, this is decent and noble, come on, come back to the old lady with me."
As he spoke, he smiled and took Yuanyang's hand and planned to walk outside.
