Chapter 546 Jia Heng: It’s not necessary to be in a state of panic.
Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall
In the evening, Jia Mu was sitting on the Arhat bed, surrounded by Mrs. Wang, Mrs.
The mind does not belong.
At noon, Liu Fang's mother, the Sun family, and the Tang family came once, which undoubtedly cast a layer of gloom on the minds of everyone in the house.
Even though they were joking and joking for a while under Sister Feng's warm-up, they were still paying attention to outside things.
Xiangyun said: "Third sister, brother Heng didn't say anything this morning?"
Tan Chun shook his head and said, "Brother Heng has been staying at a military aircraft recently, and I don't know much about the situation."
"Old lady, the second master is back." At this moment, a nanny entered the Rongqing Hall and reported.
Jia Mu looked up at the setting sun outside. She was a little surprised and asked, "The office has not been dismissed yet?"
As he spoke, Jia Zheng had already stepped into Rongqing Hall. He didn't even take off his official robe, but his steps were heavy and his face was obviously in a trance.
"Zheng'er, you're not in the Yamen at this time, why are you back?" Jia's mother asked in confusion. Baoyu on the side was so frightened that she hid behind the sisters.
"My son asked for sick leave from the General Secretary." Jia Zheng looked sad and sat down with a long sigh.
Seeing that Jia Zheng didn't look right, Jia's mother felt a little unhappy and asked, "What's going on?"
Jia Zheng picked up the tea cup on the side and said, "It's nothing."
As time passed, it turned out that the impeachment memorial from the Censor of Ke Dao was delivered to the General Affairs Department. Jia Zheng, who was in the General Affairs Department's office, first saw the memorial. Not to mention the overwhelming number of impeachment memorials, Jia Zheng was still frightened by the multiple impeachment memorials.
Not a lightweight.
Because the memorial not only impeached Jia Heng, but also impeached Jia Zheng and Qin Ye.
And the Ke Dao Yan Guan's pen was so sharp, almost every word was as sharp as a knife, penetrating deep into his bones. When had Jia Zheng seen such battles? He was so uneasy that he took a leave of absence from Cheng Xin, the general envoy, and returned home.
Seeing Jia Zheng's condition, Jia's mother became even more worried and said anxiously: "Zheng'er, are you feeling unwell?"
Mrs. Wang also cast her concerned gaze over, with some confusion on her face.
Aunt Xue, Feng Wan, Chai Dai, Ying Chun, Tan Chun, and Xiang Yun all looked at Jia Zheng in confusion.
Jia Zheng put down the tea cup and asked, "Mother, I am fine. Where is Ziyu?"
"This is strange. At noon, the people from Li Guogong's house are also looking for him. What are you?" Jia Mu said, her heart moved and she asked, "Did something happen?"
Jia Zheng pondered for a moment, sighed, and said: "The Secretary of General Affairs always impeaches his son, saying that he is over-promoted, unreasonable, has no talent and virtue, and is unworthy of being the Secretary of General Affairs."
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in Rongqing Hall.
Mrs. Wang's heart skipped a beat and she said, "Grandpa, why did the court officials impeach me? Is it because of what happened to Brother Heng at noon?"
Everyone: "..."
Jia Mu glared at Mrs. Wang and said, "Zheng'er, you have always been honest and honest. Why on earth are these people impeaching you?"
At this time, Jia Zheng read a lot of memorials scolding himself, and he felt a little irritable. He sighed and said: "Not only did I impeach my son, but also Zi Yu, and Mr. Qin, mother, it is better for my son to impeach this official."
Just say goodbye and go home to serve your mother well as a filial piety."
After all, when I worked in the Ministry of Industry before, I was somewhat thin-skinned. Suddenly I saw many censors scolding me in different ways, and some of the articles were colorful and well-organized. Jia Zheng just felt haggard and confused.
.
When Jia Mu heard this, her expression suddenly changed, as if she had been struck by thunder, and she said, "Zheng'er, why have you resigned?"
Aunt Xue and Feng Wan's expressions changed slightly, and their hearts were filled with shock and uncertainty.
Tanchun, Daiyu, and Baochai all frowned in unison, looked at each other, and shook their heads secretly, not knowing why.
Even Mrs. Wang suddenly changed her expression and said, "Master, why has this come to this?"
Jia Zheng thought for a while and said, "That's it, we'll talk about it after Ziyu comes back."
Jia Mu said quickly: "When Brother Heng comes back, we will discuss it together. How can we resign? Brother Heng worked so hard for your affairs, how can we just resign?"
After saying that, he quickly looked at Yuanyang and ordered: "Yuanyang, it's already evening. Go to Dongfu to see if Brother Heng is back."
At this moment, Jia Heng and Princess Xianning were riding in a carriage, leaving the capital camp, and were returning together under the entourage of Jinyi Mansion guards. The afterglow of the evening sun shone through the curtains into the carriage.
The excitement on Princess Xianning's face did not diminish. She looked at the young man aside and said, "Then we will go to Beijing camp tomorrow and I will go to the house to find Mr."
Jia Heng paused and said, "Your Highness, just go directly to Beijing Camp."
When Princess Xianning heard this, the joy on her face dimmed a little. For some reason, her heart moved slightly, and she asked by accident: "Sir, are you afraid that your wife will know about it?"
After saying that, my heart skipped a beat and I felt a little regretful.
She is really bumping into a customer. Why is she asking these questions?
What does it mean to be afraid of Mrs. Sister-in-law knowing? She and her husband are in perfect harmony.
Just when Princess Xianning was worrying about gains and losses, Jia Heng suddenly smiled and said: "Then your Highness, you may as well come find me at the mansion tomorrow, I will introduce you to some new friends."
It would be better to introduce Tanchun to Xianning, and Baochai and Daiyu. In the small Grand View Garden, with limited vision, we should also see some different scenery and make some outstanding sisters of the same age.
Having said this, Princess Xianning's face changed slightly, her clear eyes reflected the young man's figure, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart, because this move seemed to be similar to the uneasiness of meeting parents in later generations. She pinched her handkerchief and asked: "
The new friend is sir’s…”
The word "concubine" lingered in my mouth for a long time, but in the end I didn't say it.
But then I thought about it, sir, he just got married not long ago, so he shouldn’t have any concubines?
Jia Heng smiled, looked at the slightly embarrassed girl, and said warmly: "They are sisters in the clan. They have different temperaments, but they are all kind-hearted and well-educated girls. Your Highness will like it when you meet her."
of."
When Princess Xianning heard this, her face paused and she thought about it.
If she is your husband's clan sister, she will get to know her well in advance, and it will be easier to get along with her in the future...
Well, what is she thinking? What will happen in the future?
Thinking of this, he quickly dismissed some thoughts and said, "Sir, in a few days, things in Beijing will be settled. It won't be too late to see you again."
It didn't seem appropriate for her to go there so rashly.
"That's okay." Jia Heng didn't insist.
At this time, while talking, Jia Heng arrived at the intersection of Ningrong Street, turning to look at Princess Xianning who was absentmindedly thinking, and said warmly: "Your Highness, just come here, I will go back first."
Princess Xianning: "..."
At this time, why don't you invite him to sit in the house? Just now he obviously said that he would take her to meet the sisters at home.
So, what he said just now was all said deliberately in front of her?
So what exactly are you worried about, sir?
Jia Heng looked at the girl calmly, gradually softened a bit, and said: "Your Highness will go back early. I guess the imperial concubine should be thinking about her."
I don’t know if Xian Ning has an spy on Concubine Duan Rong, and how he would feel after learning that his daughter was brought to the camp by him.
"Sir, let's see you tomorrow." Princess Xianning's clear eyes reflected the young man's figure, and she nodded. However, she suddenly remembered something and said softly: "Sir, the third emperor brother is marrying a girl from the Wang family of Nan'an County. This
A ceremony for the canonization of the princess will be held at the palace at the end of the month."
"Well, King Wei told me before that we will just send out the invitations when the time comes." Jia Heng said loudly, without saying more, got off the carriage and headed to Ningguo Mansion under the gaze of a pair of reluctant eyes.
Jia Heng had just arrived at Ningguo Mansion when a young boy came to the door and said, "Sir, the old lady sent Miss Yuanyang to call you over."
Jia Heng was surprised and asked, "Did you say something?"
"Youngster, I don't know either." The boy shook his head and said, "Miss Yuanyang is waiting in the flower hall."
Jia Heng handed the horse's reins to the boy, walked towards the inner room, passed the ceremony gate, and strode into the flower hall.
Yuanyang is sitting on the chair waiting at this moment. A girl wearing an aqua coat and skirt with shiny black braids is tall and has a fair complexion. Her duck-oval face with a few small freckles is full of surprise, welcoming her.
He went up and said, "Uncle Heng, are you back?"
Jia Heng nodded and asked, "Did the old lady ask you to come here? We talked as we walked."
The mandarin ducks came here, most likely because they were assigned by Jia Mu to inquire about the affairs of the court, rather than to ask for a kiss.
Yuanyang responded, and headed towards the West Mansion with Jia Heng, saying, "The master came back and told the old lady that the General Affairs Department had many memorials to impeach the master."
Jia Heng's expression remained calm and he said, "That's what I guess."
After punishing the two Jin and Liu, he knew that the official of Kedao would not turn a blind eye and would definitely react. On the way back, Liu Jixian, a member of the Jinyi Qianhu family, had already told him that Jinyi Mansion had eyes and ears everywhere in Shenjing City. What could he hide?
Can you beat him?
Just a bunch of clowns!
Family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, and matters in the court were most likely transmitted to the back house at this time, and he also had to explain it to Jia Zheng.
The sky cannot fall!
"I will go to Rongqing Hall to explain the details to the old lady and the master."
Jia Heng said and went to Rongqing Hall with Yuanyang.
Jia's mother had been waiting anxiously for a while. When she heard that Jia Heng was coming, she looked happy and looked forward to it.
Not only Jia Mu, Baochai, Daiyu, Yingchun, and Xiangyun also looked at the young man who had not changed into his python uniform. He was clearly a young man who had just returned from the Yamen.
"Brother Heng." Jia Mu called.
Jia Heng saluted Jia's mother, then looked at Jia Zheng, who was sitting aside with a strange expression, and asked: "Master Zheng, have you seen all the memorials from the General Affairs Department?"
Jia Zheng's face moved slightly and he said: "Zi Yu, I just told you everything."
Jia Heng nodded, and did not rush to explain his interests. Instead, he sat down and, under the attention of everyone, picked up the tea cup on the small table, took a slow sip, faced everyone's eyes, and said: "I just came from
I came back from Beijing Camp and haven’t had a sip of tea yet.”
Perhaps it was his calm and calm demeanor that infected everyone.
Baochai's apricot eyes flashed under her beautiful eyebrows and returned to normal.
Jia Heng said: "I guess the imperial censor took the opportunity to impeach the two people regarding the matter of Jin and Liu. Someone is causing trouble. Don't be alarmed. There is also the transfer of the father-in-law and the master. Maybe someone will use this to make excuses. These are nothing."
, the palace will not listen to their nonsense."
After hearing what Jia Heng said, for some reason, Jia Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and his face became a little calmer.
Mother Jia breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Thank God, Zheng'er. I'll just say it's nothing. Please discuss everything with Brother Heng."
Sister Feng said with a smile: "Old lady, Brother Heng is a very good person. Whoever came over at noon to stir up trouble, what happened, the palace even fined him a salary."
Aunt Xue also smiled and said: "Old lady, just relax."
At this moment, the worries on the faces of Baochai, Daiyu, and Tanchun also lightened a lot.
Even Mrs. Wang's hand that squeezed the beads loosened slightly, and the look on her face softened.
Well, this is amazing.
For a moment, Mrs. Wang realized that she was a little ashamed of her thoughts and felt ashamed.
"Brother Heng, Baoyu said he was going to resign, which scared me a lot. At noon at Liu's house, the palace heard that the Liu family's salary was also fined." When Jia Mu saw Jia Heng, she explained.
"I fined the Liu family a salary." Jia Heng pondered for a moment, guessed Emperor Chongping's intention, and said: "Even if there were some disputes during the court meeting, it was not a big deal. As for the impeachment memorial, we and other courtiers will be subject to the official's instructions.
Impeachment is also a normal matter, and there is no need for turmoil or three surprises overnight."
Jia Zheng's expression changed, and he realized that he was talking about himself. He looked ashamed and said: "What Zi Yu said is true. I lost my calculation and the square inch was in chaos."
I was thinking about the young man's magnanimity just now, but looking back at his confusion and panic, not to mention other things, his Qi-raising skills alone were not even the slightest bit worse.
"I have rarely seen such battles. In fact, even those in the cabinet have been impeached by many officials." Jia Heng thought for a while and said: "The key is the Sacred Heart."
What is the Sacred Heart? The general direction of the Military Aircraft Department to check and balance the cabinet, and the Ningguo Mansion to check and balance the martial arts of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes has not changed.
Jia Zheng nodded, his face thoughtful.
Jia Heng thought for a while, looked at Jia Mu, and said solemnly: "Old lady, I have a few more things to tell the family."
Not only do things outside need to be prepared for a rainy day, but things at home also need to be arranged. His movements in the Beijing camp these days may be noticed by some censors. Maybe the impeachment will be more serious, and then let these Nan'an Tai
The concubine, some old witch from the Liu Fang family, came to stir up trouble and made the house restless, and then called him over, which made everyone exhausted.
Mother Jia was stunned for a moment. It was clear that it was rare to see Jia Heng behave like this. She asked more questions: "Brother Heng, this..."
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "Old lady, I have something to say in advance. Recently, the official of the Department of Science and Technology is afraid that he will take the opportunity to criticize me. The direction of the wind may be a bit confusing to ordinary people. The old lady only cares about high things in the house."
Let's have fun together and talk about our family relationship, ignore the storms outside, and don't have to see those talkative women who come to the door to make trouble, such as the Nan'an Princess, Liu Fang's family, and the Jin family and bankers, especially the Nan'an Princess, the former Ministry of Labor
The old lady also knows that I have never shown favoritism to her family members. She holds a grudge and cannot come to her door to stir up trouble. If we make trouble again, our family will be uneasy."
Hearing this, Jia's mother was startled. She hesitated and asked, "This... from Nan'an's family is my old relative, Brother Heng. How about I claim to be sick these days?"
In fact, when relatives come and go, sometimes it is really hard not to see them, otherwise they will be more likely to be gossiped about.
Sister Feng's eyes rolled under her eyebrows and she said with a smile: "Ancestor, don't tell me, someone brought a gift to visit me, and then said what Brother Heng said. Besides, my ancestor didn't curse himself?"
When everyone heard this, they all looked strange and secretly thought, you, Feng Lazi, have thought it through.
Jia Mu's originally solemn and worried thoughts turned into a bit dumbfounded.
At this time, Tanchun answered and said: "Brother Heng, Mrs. Liu's wife is here today. Our ancestors are responding to her, and the family has not listened to her instigation."
When Jia Heng heard this, he looked at Jia Mu in surprise.
It seemed that she was a little embarrassed by the surprised look. Jia Mu waved her hand, smiled and said: "What should I do? The palace was talking about a fine, and I left when I was bored. Something happened."
Ah, right and wrong, people's hearts are wrong and cannot be fooled casually."
Jia Heng nodded and said: "It's good that the old lady knows what's going on. It's just some people who often come here to stir up trouble. Don't listen to their nonsense. As for the family... I don't need to say more."
As he spoke, he glanced at Mrs. Wang vaguely.
Mrs. Wang: “???”
Mrs. Wang's face froze, she felt as if she had eaten flies. Now is the time of spring, when flowers are blooming, apricots...well, mosquitoes and flies are breeding again.
Uncle Heng, what do you mean? Just say something and glance at me? Am I the one who stirs up trouble?
The master was about to be forced to resign by those people, and she was worried. There was also this fourth-grade imperial edict, and the court didn't know what was going on. Why hadn't the edict been issued yet?
Well, no, isn’t this something that your uncle Heng is messing around with outside?
At this time, Tanchun and other juniors took in this scene, looked strange, and pretended not to have seen it.
The starry eyes under Daiyu's smoky eyebrows were shining brightly, looking at the young man, but she felt a little worried in her heart.
Although he didn't know what was going on outside, the impeachment memorial would not be as lighthearted as he said.
Baochai just glanced at Mrs. Wang, and then looked at the young man in the python suit, his moist and slightly apricot eyes couldn't hide the intense look.
Do you want to ask Brother Heng later? You can go over and ask later.
Jia Heng nodded and said: "That's it. By the way, in a few days, King Wei canonize the princess and hold a grand ceremony. Interestingly, this princess is still a girl from the Nan'an family."
At the end, it was a bit of a joke. Needless to say, the old witch would still act like a monster that day.
When Jia Mu heard this, her expression changed and she asked, "Isn't it that day that all the royal family members are going to the palace to watch the ceremony?"
Jia Heng nodded and said, "It's almost the same. I'll probably send out invitations in the next few days."
If the Jinyi Mansion was sent to Henan to investigate at the speed, I don't know if the wedding that day could be held.
Suppressing some trivial thoughts, Jia Heng stopped lingering and said: "Old lady, let's do this for today. The master and I will go to the study to talk."
With that said, he and Jia Zheng left Rongqing Hall.
As soon as Jia Heng left, everyone in the Rongqing Hall started talking about the choice of Princess Wei or the ceremony for the canonization of the vassal prince's concubine. Everyone was probably concerned about these, except Baoyu.
Jia Heng and Jia Zheng came to Mengpo Zhai's small study room and comforted Jia Zheng for a few words before returning to Ningguo Mansion.
In the inner hall of Ningguo Mansion, the sound of playing mahjong came from behind the screen.
"Husband is back?" Seeing Jia Heng's return, Qin Keqing made way for Baozhu to take over her role in playing mahjong. He came closer, with concern in his beautiful eyes, and asked: "Husband, where was the old lady just now?"
Jia Heng shook his head and said, "Actually, it's nothing."
Let’s briefly describe the process.
When Qin Keqing heard this, his face turned worried, and he asked with a worried tone: "My husband just said about the impeachment outside? Is it urgent or not?"
"It's okay to impeach. If my father-in-law comes over and I'm not here, tell him not to worry too much about impeachment or anything like that, and just feel free to serve in the Ministry of Industry." Jia Heng took his wife's delicate hand and said in a gentle tone: "
Besides, I will be in Beijing for the next few days, so you don’t have to worry at home."
Qin Keqing's beautiful face showed contemplation, she pursed her pink lips, hesitated for a moment before speaking, and finally said softly: "As for the outside affairs, it's fine that my husband has made arrangements."
She doesn't know much about outside things. She can only play mahjong and touch dominoes in the back house. Should she call Sister Xue to come over and talk about it later?
Jia Heng smiled, feeling a hint of loneliness in the girl's beautiful eyebrows, and said: "Ke Qing, I will explain it to you in the evening, and let our family Ke Qing give me some ideas."
Qin Keqing was feeling lost. When he heard this, his beautiful and fragrant hibiscus jade face turned as red as a blush, and he said softly, "Okay."
We talked at night, but she was afraid that while we were talking, her husband and her would start talking to each other again.
