The sun shines through the open door, illuminating half of the hall.
Emperor Chongrui sat upright on the dragon throne, lowered his eyes and looked at the piles of memorials on the imperial desk, and sneered:
"It's really a thin camel that is bigger than a horse. Jia Mu submitted a memorial, and old ministers from the founding lineage, including the Four Kings, Eight Dukes, Twelve Marquis, etc., also submitted memorials.
Old Mrs. Shi wanted her second son Jia Zheng to inherit the title, which was truly what everyone wanted and what the people wanted."
Xia Shouzhong smiled sarcastically:
"It is worthy of being a loss and a prosperous one. Just for the sake of the Jia family, the founding lineage responded to it and all came to An Ancient Love Letter."
Emperor Chongrui sneered: "Birds of a feather!"
Xia Shouzhong said with a smile:
"The old lady Shi did this because Jia She, the eldest master of the Jia family, did not do his job properly and was not good at it.
But the second master was upright, humble and kind, and had two sons under his knees. Although the eldest son Jia Zhu died young, he passed away in the exam and married a girl from the Imperial College Priest.
The second son Jia Baoyu was even more amazing. It is said that when he was born, the clouds in the house were radiant and the orchids and scents were fragrant. When the grass fell, he also held a spiritual jade to remove disasters and eliminate disasters in his mouth.
These two sons are hundreds of times stronger than Jia Lian and Jia Cong who are under Jia She."
Emperor Chongrui nodded slightly as if he was smiling, and said with deep meaning:
"You old guy, who has been living in the palace for many years, actually knows very much about the Jia family."
Upon hearing this, Xia Shouzhong's face changed slightly and he hurriedly explained:
"I also heard from others that I remember these two sentences.
It is said that the old lady of Rongguo Mansion favored Master Zheng’s room and asked Master Zheng to live in Rongxi Hall.”
Emperor Chongrui said:
"You only know one thing, not the other. On the surface, Old Lady Shi prefers Jia Zheng because you said, but in fact, it is because Jia She is not the biological child of Old Lady Shi. Jia Zheng is her only biological child.
son."
Xia Shouzhong was slightly stunned. Seeing that Emperor Chongrui knew very well about the Jia family, he guessed that someone mentioned this in the secret letter to Emperor Chongrui, so he smiled and said:
"I heard that Mr. She is usually having fun and hiding in the house to play with his wife, and just responds to the poor people's words."
Emperor Chongrui sneered:
"Jia She is critically ill, and the Jia family has not rushed to Jinling to attend the funeral?"
Emperor Chongrui made a joke and knew that the second wife of the Jia family wanted Jia She to return to the west as soon as possible so that she could replace him.
Xia Shouzhonghui reports:
"According to the tips sent by the Jinyiwei, Old Lady Shi has sent someone to Jinling."
Emperor Chongrui sneered: "I counted my fingers. If the Jia family wanted to meet Jia She for the last time, they should set out to Jinling as soon as possible."
Xia Shouzhong said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Emperor Chongrui shook his head and sighed softly, and said in his heart:
It is said that the family of heaven has no affection, and the family of the Duke and the marquis is no less.
Emperor Chongrui only felt that the Jia family was in chaos, his mother was unkind and his son was unfilial. Everyone praised the humble and kind second wife of the Jia family, but would rather watch Jia She was angry to death than to give Rongxi Hall.
come out.
Emperor Chongrui subconsciously believed that Jia She was sick of Jia Mu and Jia Zheng.
In short, the Jia family is simply out of place, and there is only one Jia Chen that makes Emperor Chongrui feel happy.
In this matter, the grudges between Mrs. Shi, Jia She and Jia Zheng are related to human ethics and filial piety.
It seems to be just a family matter of a minister, but it will inevitably be implicated on him and the Supreme Emperor. It is inevitable that someone who is interested will say something to distract him and the Supreme Emperor.
Thinking of this, Emperor Chongrui ordered Xia Shouzhong to give the memorial of the old lady Shi and the memorial of the princes and ministers to the emperor to the emperor, begging the emperor to make a decision on his behalf.
In this way, not only did he fully realize his filial piety, but he also pushed this matter out.
When the Supreme Emperor saw this memorial, he felt disdainful because Jia Zheng was too eager to seek, and because Jia She was too narrow-minded and laughed and cried.
At the same time, the Emperor of Supreme thought that Emperor Chongrui was hindering the word "filial" and did not know how to deal with Jia Mu. Jia She's grudges and thought that he still had old feelings for the Jia family. In order to show his filial piety, he begged him to make a decision. So he returned to his favor with his favor.
To Emperor Chongrui:
"Since the father can die and the son succeed, why should the brothers die and the brothers die?"
Since ancient times, royal orthodox has always been the only one who succeeds the father and son. If the brothers end up with brothers and brothers, or if someone is forced to usurp the throne, it is either because of helplessness.
The words "The Supreme Emperor" seem to be talking about the Jia family, or it seems to be talking about the royal family's own affairs.
After hearing this, Emperor Chongrui immediately felt deeply moved and bowed to the palace where the Supreme Emperor lived.
Emperor Chongrui repeatedly compared the Jia family's big house and second house. Seeing that the second house had occupied the right time, place and people, and suppressed the big house so that it was powerless to fight back, he couldn't help but want to help the big house.
The idea was decided, Emperor Chongrui took a red pen and wrote a few words on the old lady Shi's memorial: "Brothers will be together, but they will never be beautiful."
Although it was not stated clearly, Emperor Chongrui had actually expressed his attitude, that was, he did not agree with what Grandmother Jia asked for.
Xia Shouzhong left Emperor Chongrui and thought back and forth, thinking that everyone thought that if you elect a promising person, Your Majesty would ask the promising person to inherit the promising family business and revitalize the ancestral business.
However, he didn't know that His Majesty would care whether the Jia family members were successful or not.
I guess His Majesty hopes that the Jia family will fall into the hands of a slut and defeat it as soon as possible.
Retracting his thoughts, Xia Shouzhong personally went to Rong Mansion and read the decree to Jia Mu.
After hearing the imperial edict, Jia Mu knew that His Majesty had rejected her request, so she had to send someone to Jinling to tell His Majesty Jia Zheng about his decree.
At this time, in the Jia family's ancestral home in Jinling City, the coffin, paper men, paper horses, etc. were all ready, and Jia She was just waiting for her to take her last breath.
However, that night, something happened in the Jinling ancestral home.
At the third update that night, someone suddenly shouted in the front yard of the old house that there was a thief. Then the front yard was brightly lit and there were shouting everywhere, making a mess.
Jia Chen calmly put on his clothes and went out to check.
I saw Jia Lian wearing clothes, rushing out of the door in a panic, meeting with Jin Cai and other servants, and going to the front hall first.
As the noisy crowd arrived at the front hall, Jia Chen saw that the three coffins had been lifted.
Jia Lian was stunned and was stunned.
Jia Chen was calm and calm. He first asked the men and women summoned from the shop and Zhuangzi to gather together, and then took Jia Lian to Jia Sheyuan.
When he saw Jia She, Jia Lian said with an anxious look:
"Master Qi, it's not good, the coffin was opened. The front hall and the door hall were all over twenty servants who were all over the sweat medicine."
Jia She took a deep breath and said anxiously:
"Where is the thing in the coffin?"
Jia Lian looked embarrassed and looked flustered, and he didn't know where Caibao was going.
Seeing this, Jia She's throat sweetened, and he spitted out a mouthful of blood. He fell on the chair and cursed:
"If I hadn't listened to you, why did I get there..."
As he said that, he couldn't breathe, and rolled his eyes and was about to faint.
Jia Lian quickly ordered: "Come to the doctor!"
As he said that, he hurriedly stroked Jia She's chest and explained:
"My son only accompanied the master to the front hall, and never went there again to avoid suspicion. It was definitely not a flaw exposed by his son.
Besides, the idea was made by my son. If something happened, the first one of my son would be suspected. In this case, how could the son have such a bad idea?”
Jia Chen smoothed out the situation aside:
"Brother Lian has always been respectful and filial to his uncle, and he will never do this."
Jia Lian looked at Jia Chen with gratitude and continued to say to Jia She:
"Step ten thousand steps back, will the master's things belong to my son sooner or later? If the son wants to plot against those things and has already stolen things from the warehouse with the master on his back, how could he tell the master to know?"
"Not you, who is it?"
A burst of fire hit the heart and dizzy, Jia She gritted her teeth, and his eyes were dizzy, just like a candle fire in the room was blown out.
