Chapter 111: The Hundred Days Banquet (4)
Although Jia Mu is a little unfamiliar with the word IQ, he seems to be able to guess its meaning. He didn't know if he was smart, but he felt that he was at least not stupid.
Li Siyu said: "I have a way to make you angry for your mother and yourself, I don't know if you dare to try?" ”
Jia Mu looked at Li Siyu seriously, he felt that she was very dependent on Pu, so he nodded.
Jia Jungong was an important minister of the dynasty, favored by the emperor, and was one of the emperor's most favored ministers. He was surrounded by a number of officials. Jajun just greeted them. Jia Mu suddenly ran over, knelt in front of him all of a sudden, and said with tears in his eyes: "Father, please let Erniang release her mother!" In order to prevent her mother from participating in the 100-day banquet of Nangong Xiaogongzi, Erniang locked her mother in the firewood room and refused to give her anything to eat. My mother is so pitiful! ”
The surrounding guests whispered, they had long heard that Jia Jungong was afraid of the Wu family, and although his wife Li was the first to enter the door, she was always bullied by the Wu family because of her peaceful temperament. However, they didn't expect this Wu family to be so excessive, and actually locked the Li family, and the Li family was also the main room on an equal footing with her.
Jia Jungong's face changed, "What are you talking nonsense about this kid!" I saw your mother before I went out, how could she be locked in the firewood room? ”
Jia Mu said: "Father, I know that you have always favored Erniang and listen to her in everything. On weekdays, I also connived at her to bully her mother, but no matter what my mother said, she is also your wife, even if you don't love her, you can't watch her being abused to death by Erniang! ”
Children's words are unscrupulous, and children's words are the truest. In addition, Jia Mu burst into tears, and everyone present believed Jia Mu's words. And Jia Jungong's explanation became his maintenance of the Wu family. Some high-ranking officials openly accuse Jia Jungong of being wrong. Those with small official positions accused Wu of being wrong.
Nangong Hao couldn't stand it anymore. "Jia Jungong, you said that this Mrs. Li gave birth to a son and a daughter for you, even if you don't like her anymore, for the sake of the child, you can't watch others abuse her!"
His wife almost lost her life trying to give birth to a child for him. So he knows that it is not easy for a woman to give birth.
Jia Jungong was speechless, because the more he explained, the more others thought he was defending the Wu family. He glared at Jia Mu fiercely. I didn't expect him to give him this trick. He knew about the Wu family's bullying of the Li family on weekdays, and he also knew that his son Jia Mu had always just watched the Li family being bullied and did not dare to resist the Wu family. He used to think that Jia Mu was timid and difficult to become a big weapon, but now it seems that he has a deep mind and has been forbearing. Wait for the right opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy. He was relieved and a little sad at the same time, he didn't expect that he would take revenge on his family in this way.
Jia Mu said: "My grandparents have gone, and my sister is also very lucky, only my mother and mother love me in this world, and my father I don't want my mother to have anything to do." Please let Erniang let her mother go! ”
What is called "only my mother and relatives in this world love me" No matter what he says, he is his father, he is his only son, can he not hurt him?
Jia Jungong knew that the Wu family did not lock up the Li family, so he naturally knew that Jia Mu was just making a joke when he said this. He was angry, "You rebel, be careful that I break your leg if you talk nonsense." ”
Jia Mu raised her head and said indignantly: "As long as you let go of your mother, even if you break my leg, I will not have the slightest complaint." ”
Just now, it was just the Wu family, but now it's you. Jia Jungong is also counted in the ranks of bullying the Li family.
Jia Jungong was the first to understand the benefits and disadvantages of Jia Mu. Of course, he wouldn't break Jia Mu's legs, but he was just talking, but Jia Mu took it seriously, and Jia Mu took the guests even more seriously. They all advised Jia Jungong to calm down and not hurt his only son.
King Qi frowned, he didn't know if he should come forward in this matter. It stands to reason that the emperor has given Jia Mu's sister Li Siyu to him as a princess, and he can be regarded as Jia Mu's brother-in-law. I also have to call Li's mother-in-law. Naturally, he couldn't watch Jia Jungong punish Jia Mu, nor could he watch Jia Jungong connive at the Wu family to bully the Li family. It's just that, no matter what, this is the Jia family's housework, although he has a marriage contract with Li Siyu. But it is still unknown whether this marriage will be consummated.
So he hesitated. When he hesitated, King Heng took possession.
He said: "Jia Mu, the prince of Jia County, is your only son, and you love him very much." As for Mrs. Li, she is also your wife. You are a man of affection. Presumably you won't let her be wronged. Maybe there's some misunderstanding here. You still don't hurt the harmony between father and son because of misunderstanding. ”
Jia Jun Gong saw that King Heng had found a step for him, and he wanted to go down, but who knew that Jia Mu would not give him this opportunity.
Jia Mu said: "There is no misunderstanding, it is a fact that they bully their mothers. Erniang was not good to her mother before, she always scolded her mother, and was very mean to her mother. After my grandfather and grandmother went. Erniang saw that her mother had no mother's family to rely on, so she became more and more serious, came to trouble her mother every day, and asked her mother to kick her to brush the toilet, and her mother suffered a lot of humiliation. Several times my mother wanted to go with my grandparents, but she saw that I was still young and was afraid that I would be abused by Erniang, so she didn't look for a short time. My mother lived for me. But even if the mother was willing to be Erniang's servant, Erniang still refused to let her go. Father, how can you bear to watch your mother being killed by Erniang? ”
Jia Mu's words are half-true and half-false, making it impossible to distinguish the truth from the false, and it is precisely because he can't distinguish the truth from the falsehood and the fact that the Li family has a murderous reputation outside. So everyone present believed him. Even Jia Jungong really thought that the Li family had the idea of seeking death.
King Qi couldn't be silent any longer, and he said, "Jia Jungong, I have always respected you, but I never expected you to treat Mrs. Li like this. You're disappointing me so much. ”
Jia Jungong naturally knew that Li Siyu had a marriage contract with King Qi, and he understood that King Heng was holding grievances for Li Siyu's mother.
He said: "King Qi, please rest assured, the Li family is my wife, and I will take good care of her." ”
Jia Jungong said so, and King Qi couldn't say anything. He looked at Jia Mu, and then said, "The man doesn't flick if he has tears, wipe your tears away, and show some manliness." ”
Jia Mu nodded, wiped away the tears on his face, and looked at Jia Jungong fearlessly. It seems that his punishment is awaiting.
Jia Jungong was very helpless. Jia Mu clearly calculated that he couldn't teach him in front of everyone. Because everyone is on Jia Mu's side. In the eyes of everyone, Jia Mu only came here to report his family scandal just to save his mother, and if he taught him a lesson, he was afraid that it would make people think that he didn't even care about the life and death of the Li family in order to protect the Wu family.
