Chapter 323: Rong's Daughter-in-law Is Also Dead?
Jia Baoyu didn't stay in Yihong Courtyard for long, so he came to Tianxiang downstairs again and asked about the overview.
After hearing that after searching for half a day, only one Qin's hairpin was found, Jia Baoyu was not surprised.
First of all, last night's fire burned for too long, Jia Zhen's bones must have been burned to char, and it was upstairs, collapsed, and must have been crushed to pieces. Secondly, even if we were fortunate enough to keep some wreckage, and there were minions from Ning Guofu who were rummaging through the ruins, and they were non-professional investigators, such a toss would be the most elite investigation and trick in, and it would be impossible to find any other evidence.
However, it is still easy to find evidence that Jia Zhen and Qin were burned upstairs. The gold and silver jewelry on their bodies cannot be easily burned.
Therefore, he already knew that it was impossible to leave any hidden dangers, so he would go back to sleep with peace of mind.
Sleep well, not only can you deal with the next things well, but also appear open.
took Qingwen and Xiangling, two beautiful maids, to wander around Ningguo Mansion, and when they arrived at You Shi's house, they heard that he went to the main hall, so they also traced him.
As soon as Jia Zhen died, Jia Rong was suspected of harming her biological father, and the backbone of Ning Guofu was demolished. At this time, You Shi is afraid that it is difficult to cope with the pressure from all sides.
In any case, last night's incident started because of him, and he naturally won't let it go.
When he came to Ning'an Hall, Jia Baoyu asked Qingwen and the others to stay behind, and entered through the back porch by himself, and before he stepped into the main hall, he heard a loud voice inside: "Brother Zhen's daughter-in-law, since this Brother Rong is suspected of killing his father, according to me, it should be handed over to Shuntian Mansion and let the court handle it impartially." Zhen'er is the patriarch of our Jia family, and she must not die so inexplicably! ”
You Shi looked at the fierce and righteous elder in front of him, and sneered in his heart, but he had to say softly: "No matter what Rong'er says, he is also the great-great-grandson of my Ning Guofu, if his father is really gone, he is the only heir of Ning Guofu and the future patriarch of the Jia family." I'm afraid it's inappropriate to hand it over to the government like this. ”
No matter how angry Jia Rong is, he is also her nominal son. Jia Rong came to inherit Ning Guofu, she will still be the old lady of Ning Guofu in the future, if Jia Rong is arrested by the government, the consequences will be unpredictable.
These short-sighted and selfish people only think that if Jia Rong is deposed, they will have the opportunity to inherit the family business in Ningguo Mansion.
The speaker is Jia Yuan, the second master of the third room, and he is also a close faction of Ning Guofu. His grandson is a little promising, and now he is an adjutant of the state and county in the field, but I am afraid that he still wants his grandson to come back to inherit the Ning Guofu, what he said is so righteous and awe-inspiring!
As everyone knows, if Jia Rong is really convicted of killing his father, it is not certain whether Ning Guofu can keep it.
"How can this family business, which the ancestors earned after nine deaths, be handed over to an unscrupulous son who is suspected of killing his father? If he is innocent, I naturally have nothing to say, but I heard that it was Brother Zhen's daughter-in-law who personally asked him to be taken into custody last night.
If he is really innocent, why did you do that? I said that I would hand him over to the government just to let the truth come out. ”
You was silent. happened to see Jia Baoyu coming in through the back door, and she immediately got up to welcome Jia Baoyu into the hall.
Jia Baoyu smiled at her and nodded, looking into the hall.
Heh, the Jia family is worthy of being a century-old wealthy family, this person is really impressive. At a glance, twenty or thirty middle-aged and elderly people in brocade clothes, as well as many young people, were standing outside the door and behind the parents.
Jia Baoyu didn't have the consciousness of his juniors, so he went directly to a position behind Jia Zheng and sat down.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he said: "Last night, there was a fire in Tianxianglou, and the juniors were just curious to come and take a look. ”
Naturally, everyone didn't say anything, and some responded politely. Also, with Jia Baoyu's current identity, few elders really have the courage to ask for his trouble.
"Daughter-in-law Zhen, do you disagree with what I said just now? If you agree, take Rong'er out. ”
Jia Yu continued to press You Shi.
Others also acquiesced to the situation, and no one said anything else.
Although Jia Zhen was not bad to the people in the clan in the past, but with their father and son, they would not be respected, and they had huge interests, so at this time, naturally no one came forward to speak to Jia Rong.
They wished that Jia Rong would not be able to inherit Ning Guofu, so that they would have the opportunity to seek greater benefits.
You had no choice but to order someone to bring Jia Rong out, in order to make him defend himself.
It's a pity that Jia Rong deserves to be Jia Rong, and after a night of hard work, he still didn't come up with a clue, and after he came out, he just cried, saying that he didn't do it......
He is such a, even Jia Zheng, a righteous gentleman and a man who has the heart to help him, is not easy to speak.
Although Jia Zheng is reluctant to cause more trouble, Jia Rong's appearance cannot clear the suspicion.
In the end, he could only say: "We are talking about this here, in fact, it is quite disrespectful to Brother Jing, although he is a monk, but now that there is such a big thing in Ning Guofu, it is just his family matter."
Rong'er is his grandson, what should be done, and he should make an end. ”
After Jia Zheng's reminder, everyone woke up. Yes, why did you forget Jia Jing?
Jia Jing is here, no matter how unfilial Jia Rong is, there is no share of them to dispose of.
So Jia Zheng ordered someone to invite Jia Jing. Although Jia Yi and the others were reluctant in their hearts, they didn't dare to say anything.
......
......
Xuanzhen Temple is outside the city, a Taoist temple funded by Ning Guofu, and the Taoist priests inside are also invited by Ning Guofu, just to accompany Jia Jing to practice.
It's a joke to say, the powerful people are just different, they are a monk, and they have another style.
However, recently, Jia Jing's heart to cultivate immortals has become more and more intense, and the Taoist priests have found many immortal prescriptions from all over the world, refining all kinds of immortal pills, after Jia Jing took it, his spirit was really excited, no, he was about to feather and ascend to the immortal.
Hearing that someone from Jia's family invited him back, Jia Jing was unwilling.
The housekeeper couldn't, so he had to tell Jia Jing everything about the house, so that he could go back and preside over the overall situation.
Jia Jing really couldn't sit still immediately, and said again and again: "You, what are you talking about, Rong's daughter-in-law is dead, how did she die?" ”
He was indeed old and weak, and could not speak a word clearly.
The housekeepers immediately replied respectfully: "The specific minions don't know either, there was a sudden fire in Tianxianglou last night, and it can't be saved at all." The grandmothers were already wondering how the fire was burning, and suddenly Uncle Xiao Rong ran over and cried that Uncle Rong and Rong's daughter-in-law were upstairs.
Then the eldest grandmother asked us to go up to save people, but the fire was too big, and it couldn't be extinguished in the end, and the entire Tianxianglou was destroyed. Until now, the uncle and Xiao Rong's grandmother have not been seen, but some of Xiao Rong's grandmother and uncle's accessories were found in the ruins, and the grandmother and the old men in the clan concluded that the uncle and Xiao Rong's grandmother were burned to death by the fire.
Now the lords in each room are gathered in Ning'an Hall, just waiting for the lord to go back and preside over the overall situation......"
"W-really......?"
Jia Jing got up in shock, but his legs were weak, and he fell in front of the futon all at once.
"Master......!!"
Everyone was amazed.
......
In Rongguo Mansion, Mrs. Wang cleaned up and came to Jia's mother's house.
Mother Jia didn't rest well last night, and now she is a little in good spirits, and she is being served by the maids to eat some decoction to calm the nerves and nourish the spirit.
Mrs. Wang stepped forward to say goodbye, and then stood in a proper manner.
Jia Mu glanced up and said, "You're here, what's going on over there?" ”
"Back to the old lady, the matter is almost clear, Brother Zhen'er, and Rong's daughter-in-law, I'm afraid they really died in Tianxiang Building."
Jia Mu was silent for a while, then suddenly snorted and said: "A good rich life is not easy to live, and you always have to do such a thing, even if you die, it is not worth anything."
In the past, Brother Zhen did evil in Dongfu, and I didn't hear about it at all, but I am not his own grandmother after all, if I take care of him, I am afraid that I will still complain that my wife is nosy.
According to me, we don't have to worry about this matter, it's their business. ”
Mrs. Wang naturally nodded yes, but then hesitated, and her words stopped.
Jia Mu knew that she had something to say, so she asked.
Mrs. Wang said softly: "I heard that the old men in each room gathered in Ning'an Hall, saying that they were going to send Brother Rong to Shuntian Mansion and let the government investigate this case."
I'm afraid, if something is really found out and Rong'er is filled in, I am afraid that there will be no one in Ning Guofu in the future.
The second master in the third room, there is a boy in their family who is a little promising. I heard Lin Zhixiao say just now that he advocated sending Rong'er to Shuntian Mansion. ”
Mother Jia knew the clue as soon as she heard it, and reprimanded: "Nonsense, they are all old people, they don't even understand this truth, the so-called family ugliness cannot be publicized, no matter how Brother Rong says, he is also the heir of Ning Guofu, who can turn this point over?"
They just watched Dongfu suffer, and their eyes were red one by one.
Pass on my words, if anyone dares to say that he sent Brother Rong to the official mansion, I will let people cripple his legs first! ”
Seeing that Jia's mother was angry, Mrs. Wang didn't dare to disobey, so she had to be, and then after all, she couldn't help but say to the side: "Now that Baoyu is getting more and more breathing, he has become a third-grade official in the court at this age, although there are two highnesses and others in the court to support him, in the end, he is too much to be looked at, and he has offended the eldest prince before......
It's just a pity that he is not as blessed as Lian'er, and Lian'er can inherit the title of the eldest master in the future, and everything will be fine.
It's just Baoyu...... In the future, if he loses his official position, he will have no support at all. ”
Mrs. Wang's words were very soft, as if they were simple gossip.
Jia Mu glanced at her and said to Mandarin Duck and the others: "You go down first, I have something to say to your wife." ”
The mandarin duck naturally didn't dare to object, and quietly looked at Mrs. Wang, and led the other maids out.
As soon as they left, Jia Mu looked at Mrs. Wang, who was a little nervous, suddenly straightened her posture, and said lightly: "Kneel." ”
Mrs. Wang's face changed, but she didn't dare to disobey, so she had to caress the table and slowly kneel in front of Jia's mother.
