Chapter 331: Remaining Four (4)
After a pause, Jia Congzhi asked in surprise:
"The case of Minglou was nine years ago, and you also entered the palace nine years ago...... I remember that there is only one concubine in Minglou, and that concubine's name is Tomorrow Qing, if she is still alive, she should be the same age as you now...... You, are you the best friend of tomorrow's sunny hour? You're here to avenge her? ”
Bai Qingting couldn't help but laugh softly when he heard Jia Congzhi's last two question marks.
When she had laughed enough, she used a scalpel to pick open the placket on Jia Congzhi's chest, and said slowly:
"Why doesn't Lord Jia guess, maybe I'm tomorrow Qing who should have been buried here nine years ago?"
Jia Congzhi couldn't care what she was doing on her chest, and he seemed to have heard a big joke:
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Tomorrow Qing will die early! The Ming family was full of people of all ages and was burned to ashes by a fire! ”
Bai Qingting was picked open from the front of his robe, revealing his dark brown tunic underneath:
"How could it be impossible? Have you forgotten this secret room? This place was the Ming family nine years ago! ”
Jia Congzhi stared at him silently, he digested what Bai Qingting suddenly said to him:
"This is the Ming family nine years ago? This secret room...... You said that tomorrow Qing hid in this secret room back then? How do you know...... You, you ......"
He had a guess in his mind, but he couldn't believe it was true!
Bai Qingting nodded to confirm his guess: "Exactly, I am the daughter of Minglou who should have died here nine years ago, tomorrow will be fine!" ”
Jia Congzhi shouted in a panic: "Impossible! How can you be tomorrow Qingqing, who has died nine years early! ”
The knife under Bai Qingting's hand stopped moving, and she looked at him seriously:
"How could it be? As the saying goes, the truth is clear. Retribution is not pleasant! Why do you want you to viciously destroy my Ming family, and I won't be able to escape tomorrow! ”
The more she spoke, the more excited she became, and by the end of the sentence she was almost shouting.
Xiao Er and Xiao Qi had never seen such a Bai Qingting, and they were both startled.
Xiao Er was better, but Xiao Qi was so frightened that his face turned slightly pale.
The Bai Qing Pavilion at this moment was undoubtedly terrifying.
Jia Congzhi heard every word clearly, his face was full of horror, thinking of the secret room he was in, a wry smile and a look of remorse gradually appeared on his face:
"Heaven is clear, and retribution is unpleasant...... Hahaha! I, Jia Congzhi, have made no friends in my life, and only Minglou is my only true best friend. But I betrayed you! ”
He turned his eyes to look at Bai Qingting with a strange expression. A pair of cloudy eyes actually shed old tears:
"If you are really the daughter of Minglou and tomorrow, then you can do it!"
Bai Qingting laughed softly, and called out softly and amiably:
"Uncle Jia, you think you said that. Will I spare you in my father's sight? Don't be delusional! If it weren't for your father's belief in you too much. Everything has been told to you. Discussing with you, how can I give you the opportunity to tell the secretary Shangshu Wang Yue? ”
Jia Congzhi exclaimed: "You were only eleven years old back then, and you knew everything. In the nine years you have been in the palace, you have put a lot of effort into investigating your father's case! ”
Bai Qingting said to himself: "You have made a great contribution in front of Wang Shangshu, I think you have made a lot of oil and water in the past nine years, but why are you not satisfied?" even committed suicide with Jia Conglian! ”
Jia Congzhi said: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince fell, but I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince to let Junzi Heng support him!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had to be redeployed! In the battle with His Royal Highness the Third Prince, His Royal Highness the Third Prince's faction was uprooted by His Majesty, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also greatly injured, especially the queen mother! ”
Bai Qingting said: "Therefore, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needs more money and more ways, so your Jia brothers volunteered?" ”
Jia Congzhi shook his head and said: "I didn't expect Your Majesty to notice it, and even let Qi Yushi impeach Cong Lotus in the dynasty!" I didn't expect that His Majesty would let Jun Ziheng come to Haining Mansion to investigate this matter in person! ”
Bai Qingting laughed and said: "There are many unthinkable things in this world, I don't think you even thought that you have become an abandoned son of His Royal Highness the Prince, right?" ”
Jia Congzhi sneered: "How could you not have thought of it? ”
As soon as he entered Haining Mansion, he thought of it when he let Jun Ziheng keep an eye on him!
Bai Qingting affirmed: "No, Lord Jia must not have imagined that long before you decided to secretly go to Haining Mansion, you would let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be classified as an outcast!" ”
Jia Congzhi retorted: "Impossible! My personal visit to Haining Mansion is an order of His Royal Highness the Prince! ”
If it was true as she said, the crown prince Long Lang had expected today's defeat as early as when he went to Haining Mansion.
But is this possible?
Bai Qingting sneered, "Do you know why Qi Yushi found out about your brother Jia Congrong's guilt and impeached him?" ”
Jia Congzhi asked, "Why?" ”
Bai Qingting said: "For the sake of your death, I will let you die clearly." ”
Jia Congzhi was silent.
Even if she didn't say it, he knew he would not be able to escape today's catastrophe.
Bai Qingting regained the scalpel in his hand and said slowly:
"Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's actions in Kyoto are big, he has violated His Majesty's taboo, compared to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already made His Majesty feel disgusted and guarded, so he thought of a way.
But where there are advantages, there are disadvantages, and vice versa, he decided to automatically show up one or two people, and thus cut off one or two ways of wealth, so as to calm His Majesty's heart.
His Majesty needs a balanced force after all, and he will not really treat His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the end, as long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince shows weakness a little, His Majesty will eventually turn a blind eye. ”
Jia Congzhi understood.
She explained it so clearly, if he didn't understand, then he would have been an official for so many years in vain!
Jia Conglian's corruption and bribery was not found out by His Majesty's Red Cavalry guards stationed in Haining Mansion, but by the crown prince Long Lang in order to appease the emperor's anger, and he chose to let the important Jia brothers as victims.
This sacrifice cannot be said to be heavy, it can be said that it is not light.
Jia Congrong and Jia Congzhi have been loyal to Long Lang for many years, and the amount of money they have sought for Long Lang is indescribable.
Sacrificing the Jia brothers, Long Lang's blood is also dripping blood.
But if only a few people with light weight were sacrificed, the emperor's dissatisfaction with Long Lang would definitely not be extinguished.
This is a sacrifice that must be made in desperation!
Jia Congzhi can be so many officials, and he also helped Long Lang collect a lot of money, he is not stupid, on the contrary, he is quite clever.
He was originally a literati of poetry, books, wine and tea, and Minglou was also like-minded with him because of his temperament, so he became a close friend with him.
But at the same time, his selfishness is too heavy.
He can do anything for his selfishness, and even hurt those who treat him sincerely, Ming Lou is an example.
At that time, he told Wang Yue, the secretary of the ministry, and then won Wang Yue's trust, although his official career has not been promoted, but the oil and water made Wang Yue open the door to him! (To be continued.) )
