Chapter 212 The Rong Mansion offers a reward, and Jia Qi attempts to break the situation
Latest website:
On a street in the capital, there was a passerby who was dressed very ordinary and had just eaten a bowl of Chaos at a Chaos stall on the street.
Suddenly, I saw a few well-dressed boys pasting a notice on the other side of the notice board and shouting at the top of their lungs.
"If you pass by, don't miss it. The Duke of Rongguo is offering a huge reward for the Xinglin Holy Hand..."
After shouting at this notice board for a while, I saw a large group of people surrounding me. After all, the Rongguo Palace is no different from other places. Ordinary people are still very interested in what happens in these wealthy families.
Looking at the content on the notice, an old scholar stroked his goatee and read it out.
"There is a heavy reward for the Xinglin sage who can detoxify and save lives. If you can provide clues, I will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver. If you can rejuvenate with this magic hand, I will be rewarded with five thousand taels of silver!"
When everyone heard the old scholar's words, they couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Good guy, the first shot is five hundred taels, and the one who can rejuvenate with a magic skill is directly worth five thousand taels.
"After all, it's the Duke's palace, so it's generous to take action. But look at this thing, is there any mistress in the Rongguo Duke's palace who is sick or poisoned? I haven't heard of this~"
"Hey, I've heard about this. Half a day ago, I saw dozens of riders returning from outside Beijing. There was also a young master who was obviously poisoned. His lips were purple and his eyes were black. Later I
I also heard someone say that it seems to be Uncle Xue Pan of the Xue family. At this time, the Xue family is temporarily in the Rongguo Duke's mansion. The reward is probably because of that uncle~"
"Uncle Xue? Who is this?"
"Don't you know about him? This guy has quite a lot of background. I heard that he was the descendant of Xue Gong, Ziweishe's descendant. His family is very rich, and he is closely related to the Jia family, the Shi family, and the Wang family. He is extremely wealthy. The Panxiang restaurant in the capital
The pavilion belongs to them!"
"Yes~ Not long ago, I had a fight with several princes from the Duke's family because of jealousy, and the master of Shuntian Mansion sent me to the sky prison~"
"I heard that this time, the old man spent a lot of money again in Baoyue Tower. On the first night when he wanted to buy Liu Shihan, the oiran, he severely slapped the faces of the three young masters. Later, it was reported that the old man had hundreds of thousands of taels in his possession.
It seems that Yinzi was kidnapped by someone in the end when he visited the flower house~"
Talking about these tidbits, the crowd suddenly became lively, and everyone said everything about Xue Pan.
Among the crowd, a middle-aged man who was not too old chuckled when he saw what was on the notice board, his eyes were quite strange, but he did not go to post the notice, but turned around and went in another direction.
"Champion Hou——Jia Qi~~"
A cold voice dissipated with the wind, filled with unforgettable hatred. In the blink of an eye, the man disappeared among the crowd.
In the Champion House, Jia Qi read the information in his hand, and a smile appeared on his lips.
Although he didn't know who in the Jia family came up with such an idea, it was in line with his intention, and he called Er Niu over.
"Go to Ergou at the pawnshop and ask him to send someone to pay close attention. Who are the people from the Jianghu who went to Duke Rongguo's mansion this time? Let me find out their origins, and pay special attention to whether there are any outsiders, or
It's a new face, if you can come back quickly~"
Erniu was slightly startled when he heard Jia Qi's words, but he didn't ask any more questions, just nodded, turned around and left.
After Er Niu left, Cai Luan, who was practicing writing on the side, rubbed her sore wrist and asked with some confusion: "Did something happen? If you really want to save people, I can go there~"
Jia Qi waved his hand and glanced at her, "You don't have to worry about it. I will handle this matter myself. During this period, you should also pay attention to the food and other things in our house and don't let anyone take advantage of it."
~"
When Cai Luan heard this, her lips trembled, "What? I'm so kind as a donkey liver and lungs. I didn't care that you fell in love with that person named Xue Baochai. You..."
When Jia Qi heard this, he was stunned. What was this? Cai Luan would be jealous.
After thinking about it, Jia Qi explained: "What are you thinking about? Dad, you have something serious to do. Have you forgotten what I brought you last time? I felt the poison in Xue Pan's body earlier, and it was very different from that time.
Like, it's probably that person who did it. I guess his purpose is definitely not that simple~"
"The poisoning of Xue Pan was probably to get close to the people in the Rongguo Duke's Palace, especially Xichun and Sister Lin, who have a good relationship with me. Of course, it may also be everyone in the Rongguo Duke's Palace. This time they went to Jiangnan.
I discovered that this person is not a simple person. He seems to be secretly supporting the White Lotus Sect. I took action to destroy the Jurchens back then. This old guy probably has a grudge against me~"
"The intention was to support the White Lotus Sect to rebel, cause turmoil, and make us, the well-off people, kill each other in order to take revenge. However, in the battle of Jinling, not only was the Zhen family directly wiped out by me, but the White Lotus Sect was also severely injured by me.
, it’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s a traumatic experience, I’m afraid it won’t be possible to cause another disturbance in a short period of time~”
"I ruined his plan. This time he is very likely to make plans for the people around me, or force me to take action, which will make me feared by the two saints and kill people with their swords~"
Cai Luan's expression changed, her curved eyebrows rose up, and her eyes as black as paint suddenly became cold and intense.
"That person is looking for death~"
She is not a common lady who knows nothing, but a master who is proficient in poisoning. Hearing Jia Qi's analysis made her feel murderous.
Seeing Cai Luan like this, Jia Qi also shook his head, "I'm telling you this not to make you take action, but to make you more careful in your daily life. Your identity has already been known to the emperor~"
Hearing this, Cai Luan's face suddenly turned pale, and she looked at Jia Qi with a somewhat panicked expression.
Seeing this, Jia Qi stood up and walked over, hugging her into his arms, "Don't think too much, the emperor just used this matter to warn me. After all, the impact of the big snow dragon riding down Jiangnan was too great. In fact, not only
You, even Miaoyu's life experience was dug up by him, but he just doesn't know what Miaoyu and you are capable of~"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Don't worry, since you have become my wife, I will not let anything happen to you until I die~"
Hearing Jia Qi's affectionate confession, Cai Luan's expression regained her composure, and then she stretched out her soft pancreas and gently blocked Jia Qi's lips.
"You are not allowed to say death. If that happens in the future, just leave. As long as you are here, those people will not dare to do anything to us~"
Jia Qi saw the determination in the eyes of the girl in his arms, and a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes, this silly girl.
"Yeah~"
Cai Luan retracted her hand as if she was electrocuted.
"I'm going to die, it's already this time, and you're still making trouble~"
It turned out that just now Jia Qi couldn't help but licked Cai Luan's little hand, and Cai Luan subconsciously took it back.
Jia Qi smiled softly and pulled the other person into his arms, feeling the warmth of this moment.
"The water in the capital is really deep~~"
Then Jia Qi murmured to himself again. When Emperor Taikang was investigating him earlier, he knew about it, but he didn't understand what Emperor Taikang was investigating. It stands to reason that he was the first to defeat the Liaodong Jurchens.
When they were awarded the title of Champion, those people should have dug out their pasts. After all, they could investigate the identities of Cai Luan and Miao Yu so clearly. He definitely didn't believe that the other party couldn't find out who he was, a Ningguo Mansion official.
The identity of the branch.
The attitude of the officials in the capital has also become a bit strange. Whether they are people from the Ming Kang Emperor's faction or the Taikang Emperor's faction, especially those civil servants, they seem to have a deep hatred for themselves. The officials of the Ministry of Education have repeatedly impeached themselves.
.
Sometimes I am also very curious, what are these people thinking, is it so good to overthrow themselves? When the military power in the capital is dominated by one family, and when Emperor Taikang takes over the government, what will happen to them?
benefit.
After all, Emperor Taikang was not a good man and a believer. He was especially close to the Wu Xun family. Back then, he suppressed the civil servants and became arrogant and domineering. It was even worse than now.
Fortunately, Emperor Mingkang's brain was not broken, and he did not hold on to that matter. If he had reported the White Lotus Sect's affairs back to the capital, he would not have thought about what would have happened?
Can he command the 50,000 border troops? I'm afraid that if he thinks too much, then if the old concubine Zhen goes to Taikang Emperor's side to blow some bad wind, everything will probably be ruined.
Speaking of this, a strange look flashed between Jia Qi's brows. The two Zhen family members in the palace probably hate themselves to death now. It is said that Concubine Zhen has completely fallen out of favor, and Emperor Ming Kang will never set foot on her again.
No matter what step she took, Old Concubine Zhen was still strong. After all, Emperor Taikang was old and still cherished the past, so he did not let down the concubine who had always been by her side. That is why Emperor Mingkang did not turn Concubine Zhen into a
Completely thrown into the cold palace.
Otherwise, based on the actions of the Zhen family, it is estimated that Concubine Zhen would have been secretly dealt with by him, and even the second prince would have been implicated.
At present, Emperor Mingkang is still very generous in handling this matter. The second prince Chu Qian was hardly affected. Emperor Mingkang did not issue any special treatment. Instead, he acquiesced to some of the other party's actions, such as going to the hospital every day.
Say hello to Taihe Palace, get close to the Wu Xun family, etc.
It is said that it is difficult to guess the thoughts of an emperor, which is true.
But Jia Qi is too lazy to guess. His current goal is also very simple. He wants to find a way to improve his cultivation, and then he plans a few things about himself. One is the old Jurchen and the people in the court.
In comparison, this guy is obviously a greater threat to him. They are all practitioners, and he knows very well how much destructive power it can unleash in the end.
Next, there is the matter of building ships to go to South America. The matter of corn and potatoes is also urgent. The current instability in Dakang has a lot to do with the reduction of production or even the elimination of production.
In terms of practice, I have found a relatively good method. Miaoyu's little girl has obviously blushed a lot less in the past few days, and she can even make a few harmless jokes with him, which is a big gain.
