Chapter 402: Return
After Jia Baoyu returned to Yihong Courtyard from the Jingshi Health Hall, he slept peacefully, but this night, the capital would not be too peaceful after all.
Jia Baoyu, a new upstart in the dynasty, a first-class earl, and the marquis of Yu, the official residence of the third-grade forbidden army, was actually assassinated in the Qinglou......
This is naturally a great news for the capital.
In one night, all the well-informed mansions in the capital almost knew.
They may have an old relationship with the Jia family, or they may have a relationship with Jia Baoyu, or even if they have nothing to do with it, they will pay attention to this news because Jia Baoyu is the first cronie around the second prince.
After all, everyone knows that the second prince is the prince of the court and even the emperor, as long as it can involve the second prince, there is nothing unimportant.
What's more, along with the news of Jia Baoyu's assassination, there is another accompanying news.
The eldest prince was the mastermind who planned this assassination.
In this way, it is difficult not to pay attention.
The eldest prince, after a short time, became a street rat in the capital again, and it reached the point where everyone shouted and beat him.
The identity of the prince is precious, or ten hundred thousand people can't shake it, but when ten thousand, one hundred thousand people sneer at it and hate it, the noble veil will be ruthlessly spread, revealing the ordinary, even more dirty and despicable mortal fetus than the world.
Let the world trample on it.
No one feels fear or awe of it anymore.
The world is still like this, not to mention the ruthless politicians who hide in the quagmire of the capital and have quite fangs.
They all felt that it was time to step on the eldest prince again.
Even those who have no stake in it also have an attitude of being happy to see it happen and gloating. Because they feel that it is also a pleasure to watch the once high heavenly nobles being knocked to the dust......
As a result, many people no longer pay attention to the fact that ** itself is just the assassination of Jia Baoyu.
Except for Shuntianfu, there are few forces that seriously care about the truth of the case, and they are all unanimous, looking forward to seeing how the eldest prince will spend his time in this **.
Is it safe and worry-free, or is it a layer of skin......
But Jia Baoyu couldn't control all this, and he didn't think about controlling it.
He only thought that he had to find out the murderer, even if it was a backbiter, and make him pay enough to maintain his identity and decency, which was enough.
As for dealing with the eldest prince, that is the job of the second prince.
It's best to kill it, if you can't die, he won't have anything to lose, at most, he will guard against the eldest prince in the future.
Therefore, although he slept late, Jia Baoyu felt that tonight's sleep was quite comfortable, but it would be nice if he could sleep a little longer.
Before dawn, the attackers woke him up.
"Second master, everyone in the house is spreading that your original guard knelt outside the gate of the mansion all night, and Mrs. sent someone to ask you what was going on and told you to go out and have a look!"
"What, still kneeling?"
Jia Baoyu turned over and almost lifted Qingwen in her arms under the bed.
Fortunately, the attackers were quick and stopped her.
Qingwen opened her eyes, muttered twice, glanced at the sky again, and then ignored nothing, crossed Jia Baoyu, and ran inside to sleep next to Xiangling.
In her mind, what is outside has to do with her, and what she gets up to do.
In this regard, the attacker could only curse twice secretly, but because Jia Baoyu didn't mind, she naturally didn't say anything, and served Jia Baoyu diligently to get dressed and get up.
"Are you really still kneeling? Why didn't you call me earlier? ”
Jia Baoyu asked as he asked as he quickly cooperated with the attacker to dress him.
"I also just found out, I guess the people outside were afraid of disturbing my rest, so I deliberately didn't pass it on last night."
Jia Baoyu thought about it, most likely so.
He slept when he came back last night, whether it was Mingyan and the others or those mothers-in-law who patrolled the night, they would not disturb his rest because of an insignificant outsider.
It's a lack of consideration, but, what is Jiang Cun's picture?
I don't blame him!
After he got dressed, he didn't wash and went out.
When I arrived at the gate of the house, the sky was still gray, and the disciples of the Jia family were all leaning on the corner door to look strange, and when they saw Jia Baoyu coming over, they saluted one after another.
"What about people?"
Jia Baoyu asked casually, and then followed the instructions of the disciples, and sure enough, he saw that outside the gate, there was a person kneeling straight at the stone lion on the left, who was it not Jiang Cun?
"Why are you here?" Jia Baoyu walked over quickly and helped him up.
Jiang Cun naturally saw Jia Baoyu too, and his eyes, which were originally a little distracted, immediately filled with full spirit, refused Jia Baoyu's support, and said in a straight voice: "If the adults refuse to forgive their subordinates, their subordinates will not dare to get up." ”
Seeing that his attitude was so firm, Jia Baoyu realized that he was serious.
With a faint sigh, Jia Baoyu said: "Get up, you haven't made a mistake, so why do you need me to forgive." ”
Jiang Cun's face was ugly and said: "As a subordinate, I know that adults are in trouble, but I can't tell the truth, this is disloyalty." It is unjust for an adult to be honorable and courteous to his subordinates, but his subordinates cannot treat each other with all sincerity, and he puts his adult in danger.
Jiang Cun acted such disloyal and unjust, if he couldn't be forgiven by adults, how could he have the face to live in the world? ”
When Jia Baoyu heard this kind of words, he couldn't help complaining in his heart, some ancients were dead brains.
People who think of them in the 21st century, no matter what happens, first think of excusing themselves, and use all the legal provisions and moral principles that are beneficial to them to prove that they are not wrong.
How can anyone put themselves on the line?
Isn't it because he listened to the orders of a second prince and became an unfaithful and unrighteous person?
It's just that how do you feel that not only do you not despise him, but you like him more and more?
complained about himself casually, and Jia Baoyu also said with a straight face: "Get up, I really don't blame you." I asked you to leave last night, and it was really just because you were a member of the palace and couldn't have been by my side all the time.
If sooner or later you have to go back, why should you do this? ”
Jiang Cun listened, as if he had been wronged, and said: "When I came back from Shandong, His Royal Highness saw that there was no guard around the adult, so he gave his subordinates to the adult.
Therefore, from that day on, the subordinates are already adults, and they should respect adults.
It's just that my subordinates are ignorant, and they actually think of His Highness's kindness to me at the beginning, and forget the word loyalty! ”
Looking at Jiang Cun's look, "I have long disconnected the relationship with the second prince, and now I am your person", Jia Baoyu shook his head in his heart.
He thought that although the second prince gave Jiang Cun to him to show his favor and protect his safety, he did not mean to spy on him by the way......
This is the best way, and Jia Baoyu doesn't find it too difficult to accept.
It's just that the second prince probably didn't expect that Jiang Cun couldn't understand what he meant, and the second prince obviously couldn't say it clearly......
Jiang Cun didn't know what Jia Baoyu was thinking, and he continued:
"Therefore, when the Lord ordered his subordinates to return to the palace last night, his subordinates had already begged His Royal Highness King Qi to remove his subordinates from the position of five-grade guards.
From now on, the subordinates are only subordinates of adults, and they have nothing to do with the royal palace, only kindness, and no other relationship. ”
"You beg Your Highness to remove you from your position as a guard?"
"Yes, Your Highness has already agreed."
Jiang Cun looked at Jia Baoyu with burning eyes, showing his determination.
Jia Baoyu has already thought about another level.
Originally, he returned Jiang Cun, although it might make the second prince a little unhappy, but after all, it was reasonable, and the second prince couldn't say anything.
His personal guards were indeed formed.
It's just that Jiang Cun did this, as if he was not open-minded enough to force Jiang Cun to cut off his connection with the palace.
That's a bit disrespectful!
If what Jiang Cun said is true, and he doesn't want the second prince to misunderstand, the best way is to stick to his previous attitude and get rid of Jiang Cun, then it can also show that he is open-minded and has no other intentions.
It's just that if he really does this, he feels that he will not be able to get over it in his heart.
Jiang Cun did this, obviously to dispel his vigilance, in order to be able to follow him.
The so-called good lord cherishes good general, Jia Baoyu has this strong feeling at this time.
Such a talent, such a person who is devoted to him, if he rejects it just to avoid the passive suspicion of the second prince, it is really embarrassing!
That's it, if the second prince is really a person who is easy to be suspicious, then no matter how careful he is, there will always be a day when he will be suspicious.
He felt that he was cautious enough in front of the second prince.
If you are a little more humble, what kind of man are you, just be a eunuch!
Thinking about this, Jia Baoyu suddenly felt that his thoughts had become a lot clearer, and looking at Jiang Cun, who had his arm on his hand, but he still refused to get up, he forcibly lifted him up.
Then in his somewhat nervous eyes, he said with a smile: "To be honest, in fact, I don't want you to go back to the palace, if you really follow me, the position of the pro-soldier team around me will always be yours." ”
"Your Excellency is willing to take in your subordinates?"
Jia Baoyu smiled and nodded.
Jiang Cun looked a little excited, and immediately bowed again: "From now on, only the orders of the adults will be obeyed!" ”
Jia Baoyu didn't stop him, and waited for him to finish speaking before helping him up again.
"Congratulations to Brother Jiang."
"The welcome team is coming back......"
At this time, Jia Baoyu's personal soldiers also surrounded and greeted Jiang Cun one after another.
A pro-soldier said: "You went back to the palace last night, we all thought that the adults would let Brother Li or Zhanfei be the team, but the adults were stunned and didn't say anything about the team, it turned out that they expected you to come back, and deliberately reserved the position of the team for you!" ”
When Jiang Cun heard this, he immediately looked at Jia Baoyu and showed a grateful look.
Jia Baoyu had a warm smile on his face, of course he wouldn't say it, he just didn't think about setting up a new team for a while.
"Let's go, talk in the house."
"Yes."
