Chapter 49: Night Inspection
Jia Zheng slowly walked to the front of the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and he had covered his face with his sleeves because he was afraid of face, but looking at the bright appearance of several people from the Lai family, and Jia Yucun was actually among them, he couldn't help but think of many things, and snorted coldly in his heart, and his sleeves were also lowered.

Lai Da Lai Er looked at this person's figure very familiarly, and he couldn't think of who it was for a while. It seems that the person removed his sleeves, his face was covered with nosebleeds, but his face was very familiar, and he immediately recognized Jia Zhenglai, and his face suddenly turned red and white. Lai Da only felt panicked in his heart, and hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Why did the second master become like this, and what about the people around him?" ”
Jia Zheng snorted coldly, Lai Da and Lai Er looked at the servants on both sides who were fighting, and then saw that the beard on Jia Zheng's face that was carefully groomed on weekdays was also messy, his face was blue in a few places, and there were a few shoe prints on his clothes, so he slowly reacted, knelt on the ground and trembled.
The two masters spoke, and both sides of the fight felt that something was wrong, and they gradually stopped. After all, the time of the nursing home invited by the Lai family is still short, and there is no thought of honor and disgrace, and when he saw that the master of the Lai family knelt on the ground first, he knew that there was no reward for fighting, so he couldn't help but stop, but the people brought by Jia Zheng were pressed and beaten before, and now the other party has softened, so he naturally wants to find the field again.
Jia Zheng didn't look at the Lai family who was kneeling on the ground, arched his hand to the people of the Soldiers and Horses, and said: "The slave in the family committed a crime, which made the adults laugh!" ”
When the people of the Terracotta Division saw this, they also knew that they had been involved in other people's family affairs. Therefore, the first person arched his hand and said with a smile: "The humble surname is Xu, and I just happened to be on duty today." These slaves, as soon as they carry their masters, they will make waves, Lord Jia, there are those who have the advantage of being lowered, although they are instructed. ”
Taking advantage of Jia Zheng and the people of the Soldiers and Horses Division to talk and not notice his opportunity, Jia Yucun quietly got into the inner house of the Lai family, found the back door in a hurry, and slipped away quietly.
Outside, Jia Zheng thought for a while, and said to the people of the Soldiers and Horses: "Then please bother your lord to delay here for some hours." This dog slave doesn't know how many things he stole from, and the brother who came first is gone, I don't know if he was seized by this slave, and I ask the adults to be a witness for me. ”
As soon as Jia Zheng said Jia Yu, the faces of the Lai family changed even more, and their eyes looked at the people who had been knocked down and piled up at the door before, although the weather was still very cold, they were soaked with cold sweat.
At this moment, suddenly next to the stone lion in front of Lai's house, a person called out "oops". Jia Zheng heard this voice very familiar, and when he looked back, he saw that under the light of the lanterns on both sides of the gate of Lai's house, he sat up slowly with his head touched. Look at the gray beard, the clothes on his body, and the facial features illuminated by the lantern, who is it not Jia Yu?
Jia Zheng glanced at Jia Yu, sneered and said to Lai Da Lai Er: "Who lent you your courage? Don't talk about eating inside and out, and dare to use weapons to beat the master! ”
Lai Dalai knew that this time the blame would be inescapable, so he lowered his head and did not reply. Jia Zheng snorted coldly from his nose, and with a wave of his hand, the Lai family's guards were tied up by Wuhuanda and handed over to the officers and soldiers who were patrolling the night.
Lin Zhixiao's family beckoned and brought those people to rush into Lai's house, first drove out all the Lai family's family members, and then broke into various rooms to check around, and it didn't take long to search for a bunch of things that were not available on the market. Lin Zhixiao's family took the lantern to inspect it personally, he was the housekeeper in the house, and naturally he knew everything in Jiafu.
Lin Zhixiao's family first picked out a pair of pen washes, looked at the seal at the bottom, and said: "This is something given by the emperor." He picked up another jade Ruyi and looked at it, and said, "This is what the concubine gave to the old lady." "Look at the golden hairpin jade pendant again, the ancient paintings, some of which are in Mrs. Wang's room, and some of which are brought by Lin Daiyu from Suzhou, and they are stored in the warehouse and exchanged out. There are also some things in Jia Yu and Jia Zheng's study.
Lin Zhixiao explained the origin one by one, and at this time, another small servant came out of the courtyard of Lai's house, holding some land deeds and seals, and said with a smile: "This was found from the secret compartment of their study." ”
Lai Da, who had already mourned the exam, couldn't help but tremble when he saw it.
Lin Zhixiao's family smiled and picked up the seal and looked at it, immediately changed his face, and carefully presented the seal to Jia Zheng. Jia Zheng picked up the seal in confusion and looked at it, and was shocked, only to see that the seal was a small seal that he was carrying. Jia Zheng looked panicked, and hurriedly rummaged through his body: "Where is the small seal I carry?" ”
Lin Zhixiao's family remembered that Jia Zheng was the night patrol officer and soldier invited by him with the seal, and hurriedly found Jia Zheng's seal on his body.
Jia Zheng's face was pale, and he looked at the light emitted by the lantern in Lin Zhixiao's hand, and saw that although the small seal copied from Lai's house was a little rougher, the engraved seal at the bottom was almost the same. Obviously, this is Lai's family furniture engraved with Jia Zheng's seal, used to do some shady deeds.
Looking at the land deeds and house deeds in Lin Zhixiao's hands, there are several of them stamped with his seal. In other words, these properties were purchased by the Lai family in his name outside, and they were either forcibly bought at a low price, or they privately accepted bribes from others, and then acted for others in the name of Jia Zheng.
Jia Zheng was so angry that his beard trembled, and he said to the official surnamed Xu of the Terracotta Division: "The old man wants to sue the Diao slave in the family, and ask the adult to be a witness for the old man." ”
Master Xu of the Terracotta Division nodded, and his heart was also very boring. I thought that bringing people out this time would be able to please the Jia family, but who would have thought that it was called out by someone's slaves, and he was almost used as a gunman. He was very happy to take this opportunity to get off the donkey and sell it to the Jia family by the way.
Privately carving the master's seal is a very serious crime in the laws of this dynasty, not to mention that the Lai family also used it to do many unseemly deeds.
At that time, the officers and soldiers who were on patrol at night escorted the men of the Lai family back to the yamen to ask for the crime, and the female dependents were also driven to a room and imprisoned. Jia Yu and those who were injured were sent by Lin Zhixiao to the hospital to bandage and treat their injuries, Jia Zheng borrowed a horse from the soldiers and horses, turned over and rode on horseback, and escorted these people to the yamen with all the officers and soldiers.
In Jiafuli, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang were waiting in the inner room, always feeling frightened. I heard that the husband who was patrolling the night outside knocked on the three watches, only to hear footsteps coming from the outer courtyard. I told the girl to go out and inquire, and it turned out that the servants who had been seriously injured had been bandaged and sent back by the infirmary.
Xing and the second lady Wang couldn't sit still, so they went to the second door to ask, only to know that they had gone to Lai's house. Mrs. Xing saw Jia Yu with a white bandage wrapped around her head and supported by two injured little servants, she almost fainted in fright, and hurriedly wiped her tears and left Mrs. Wang to take care of Jia Yu.
