After eating, it was completely dark since Lin Mansion came out.

Buzheng Fang and all the official squares around it, every family hangs white lights to mourn, which looks a little terrifying.

Jia Qiang led his soldiers all the way to Xicheng, returned to Ning Rong Street, and unexpectedly saw the white lantern in front of Ning Guo's Mansion.

Thinking of the emperor's treatment of him, although he only had the intention of using it, it changed his fate in the end.

So, don't scold bad luck......

As soon as he turned over and dismounted, he unsurprisingly saw a familiar person.

"Master Hou, the old lady said that you have returned to the house, so you will go to Xifu."

Jia Qiang looked at Lin Zhixiao, who bowed down to pass the word, and said with some amusement: "There are no two housekeepers left in Xifu, why are you so idle?" See the sky to be an errand runner? ”

Lin Zhixiao hurriedly smiled and said: "Master Hou said that he was joking, now there are three more housekeepers in the house, one is my cousin Zhao Jing, although he is stupid, but he is better than his honest duty, and now he is in charge of the affairs of Zhuangzi outside." There are two more, one was originally the son of the old lady's companion, named Sun Qiao, and the other was mentioned by the wife, Aunt Zhou's brother, Zhou He. ”

When Jia Qiang heard this, she pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "It's all rooted...... However, you are now the great steward of Xifu, and you must take care of them. If they really have anything frivolous or unclean and do not know the royal law, if you are taboo with the old lady and the second wife, come directly to me. If they have done their iniquity and poked out the basket and you have said it, I will have a seizure even with you, the great butler. ”

When Lin Zhixiao heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said: "With Hou Ye's words, the slave will know what to do, Hou Ye can rest assured." ”

Jia Qiang smiled when she heard this, and after taking a deep look at Lin Zhixiao, she didn't say anything more, and turned around and walked towards Rongfu.

Lin Zhixiao was shocked when he saw Jia Qiang's eyes, and hurriedly wiped away the original idea of killing people with a knife in his heart.

However, he thought that he himself was also for loyalty, otherwise Jia Qiang would not agree to him, so he put his mind at ease.

……

Xifu, Rongqing Hall.

When Jia Qiang came in, she felt that the atmosphere was not quite right.

Looking at Baoyu who was still crying in Jia's mother's arms, Jia Qiang vaguely understood something.

Sure enough, after meeting Mother Jia, Mrs. Wang, and Aunt Xue, I heard Mother Jia reprimand unhappily: "Brother Qiang, why are you bullying Baoyu again?" If you don't bully him once a day, won't you be happy? ”

Jia Qiang said inexplicably: "How much did I bully him?" I haven't seen him yet! ”

Seeing that Baoyu was crying, Jia Mu slapped the soft couch angrily and said, "You still don't admit it!" The sisters in the family are all stubborn in your broken garden, why did you bring Baoyu back alone? I've been crying all day! ”

Looking at Jia's mother, who was trembling and cold, Jia Qiang was speechless and funny, and said: "Today's national funeral, don't the old lady and wife enter the palace to show filial piety?" Jia Lian is still in bed to recuperate, and the old lady has no children and grandchildren around her, so she is not laughed to death? How can a good heart not fall well? ”

Jia Mu said angrily: "Do you have to have Baoyu to send us?" Why are you going? Isn't it only Yu'er and her son who are your parents, but we are in the back? ”

Jia Qiang was stunned when she heard this, and said, "Yo! Old lady, do you know that I sent my husband home? ”

Seeing that Jia's mother was getting worse and worse, he waved his hand and smiled: "It's not that I don't want to escort the old lady back and forth, I didn't sleep all night last night, and when I returned to the city on the fifth watch, I went directly to the Yamen of the Soldiers and Horses." After finishing his business, he escorted his husband back home. If you're counting on me, don't think about it. During this national funeral, the emperor did not use the soldiers and horses of the infantry army to lead the yamen to guard the squares, but asked the soldiers and horses to do this. Where can I go...... Hey, the old lady didn't go today? Why haven't I seen you old? ”

Jia Mu became more and more angry when she heard this, and said, "You still have me in your eyes? Today in the Qianqing Palace, I follow the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, you haven't even looked at me, I think you are becoming more and more ignorant of respecting the elderly! ”

Jia Qiang was wronged, but she couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha! Old lady, this is how unreasonable you are. Today, the queen mother, the princess, the queen, the princess, and the princesses and princesses of the clan, plus the princess and the princess, there are hundreds of people, your old lady is staying in the back, where can I recognize you? ”

If he knew that Daiyu was going, he would not have looked at the crowd more......

Li Kun is a kind-hearted person, seeing that Jia's motherly face turned white, he persuaded with a smile: "Good brother Qiang, don't say it again!" The old lady is tired from the day today......"

Jia Qiang nodded and said to Jia's mother: "You have to work hard for a while, and when you are busy with this period of national funeral, I will ask you to send you and Baoyu to wash the warm soup together, so as to relieve fatigue and be good for your body and bones." ”

Baoyu's face darkened, but when Jia Mu heard this, her face finally soothed, hesitated, and then asked, "Are you really inseparable?" Otherwise, Ming'er or you send me and my wife into the palace......"

Jia Qiang said: "I said that I have business to be busy, what's the matter, can't I let Baoyu and Jia Huan go?" They don't need to drive the car and carry the sedan car. ”

Jia Mu said angrily: "Brother Huan'er, who can't be on the stage, how can he enter the palace?" I can't take him out of the way. ”

Jia Qiang then remembered that this old lady was also a very decent person, and in her previous life, the princess of Nan'an County and others came to visit and wanted to see the sisters of the Jia family, but Jia's mother only asked Lin, Xue, Shi and one Tanchun to come forward.

Thinking about the honor and heroism of the third master of Huan, it really can't get into her eyes.

Thinking of this, Jia Qiang frowned again and said, "What about Baoyu?" ”

Jia Mu paused, and said uncomfortably: "Baoyu's body and bones only look good on the outside, but the inside is tight, and the cold and dew outside are heavy when he gets up early, how can he stand it?" ”

Jia Qiang's face was ugly, and she said, "He can't stand it, I can't stand it?" Baoyu is still a fat man, I look much thinner than him on the outside, and even weaker on the inside! Old lady, I advise you not to be partial, even the sedan chair is reluctant to let him follow at this time, and you still expect him to send you to Wutai Mountain in the future? ”

When Mother Jia heard this, she finally smiled, and smiled at Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang: "I almost forgot that this monkey is also a half-grown son who has not yet married, and only treats him as Baoyu's father's generation." Look, it's still sour. ”

Aunt Xue laughed and said: "Speaking of which, he is two or three years older than Baoyu, but he is too capable in Su Ri, and he has done great things, who still thinks that he is a child?" ”

Mrs. Wang also smiled softly at Jia Qiang and explained: "If it's just the frost outside, although I am used to Baoyu, I am not at this point. It's just that he has no place to go in the palace, so he can only stay up outside, and if the wind really blows all day, I'm afraid he won't be able to stay up. Brother, you have business to do, go and cry after the spirit, and then go to get down to business, you don't have to stay there......"

Jia Qiang still shook her head and said: "That's not possible, I have to go to the yamen at the beginning of tomorrow, and then enter the palace after the arrangements are made, and I will leave more than an hour earlier than you." In this way, Baoyu will escort you to the palace first, and when I enter the palace and cry for the spirit, I will come out to pick him up and go to the Yamen of the Soldiers and Horses. When I cried again at night, I brought it over, and I just picked up the old lady and wife out of the palace together. ”

Mrs. Wang's face was faintly ugly, but it was impossible to think about it.

Seeing that Baoyu was really unhappy, Jia Mu hesitated, but said, "Why don't you find a few people from the clan?" ”

When Jia Qiang heard this, she frowned and looked at Baoyu, and asked in a light voice: "Baoyu, the old lady said that she can't use you, let someone from the clan replace you, what do you say?" ”

Just hearing this voice, Baoyu shuddered, and then looked into Jia Qiang's eyes, only to see that his gaze seemed to be looking at a stranger.

Although Baoyu often called Jia Qiang to bully him, he still knew in his heart that although Jia Qiang couldn't get used to him for some things, he still regarded him as a friend, and most of them were laughing with him.

If he really got disgusted with him, and Jia Qiang directly didn't let him go to Dongfu, what could he do?

But right now, Baoyu could see that Jia Qiang was really angry.

Baoyu thought to himself, if he dared to speak out today and let the clansmen replace him, then Jia Qiang was afraid that in the future, he would never treat him as a friend again, and he would no longer look down on him.

Therefore, although I was very reluctant to run around and just wanted to stay at home, I didn't dare to say a word at the moment, so I glanced at Jia Qiang without resentment and said, "I'll go, can't I go?" ”

Jia Qiang tugged at the corners of her mouth, seeing Jia Mu staring at him with white eyes, she didn't bother to pay attention to this confused old lady, and was about to leave, but saw that Jia Zheng had arrived again.

After Jia Qiang bowed his head, he saw that Jia Zheng's face was not good-looking, so he thought he was tired.

Jia Zheng is just a five-grade official, and there is no Wang Bada in the Jinshui River in Beijing, Lin Ruhai can enter the Qianqing Palace, he can enter the Taihe Gate, and there is always a place to shelter from the wind.

But Jia Zheng could only kneel on the square in front of the Qianqing Palace, kneeling there and crying for a night, this taste was naturally ecstatic.

Jia Qiang persuaded Jia Zhengdao: "If the second master really can't stand it, it's okay to take a leave." ”

Ordinary officials would never dare to take leave, because that would be a loss of office.

A scholar, who has studied hard for ten years, has taken one exam after another, and even has to put his life in half of it, and the person who asks for it in the end is nothing more than an official word, how can he be willing to throw it away?

But Jia Zheng is different, in officialdom, he is still very Buddhist.

In addition, as the father of the concubine and the son-in-law of Rongguo, he still has the dignity to take a leave.

As long as the first day and the day of the funeral are not less, it will be ......

But Jia Qiang never expected that what Jia Zheng said was not the case, but Jia Zheng looked at him excitedly and asked loudly: "Brother Qiang, I heard that the Emperor Taishang did not die at the end of his life, but was he harmed by treacherous and evil people?" Isn't that so? Is there really someone who doesn't even care about heaven and humanity for the sake of power?! The Emperor Taishang was poisoned ......"

Jia Qiang's face changed suddenly when she heard this, and after being stunned, she looked at Jia Zheng and said in a deep voice: "Second master, stop talking!" Who told you these words? Don't be in a hurry to speak first, I'm asking you now as the patriarch of the Jia family, the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and the embroidered guard Qianhu, which of these rebellious bastards said to you? Speak!! By the end, his voice was full of rage.

Jia Qiang's sudden turn of face not only made Jia Zheng's excited anger stagnant and a little stunned, but also made Jia Mu and the others frightened, Jia Mu hurriedly stood up and hurriedly persuaded: "What do you have to say, can't you say it well?" Brother Qiang, this is the old son of the concubine and Baoyu! ”

Baoyu looked at Jia Qiang with admiration, and dared to talk to Lao Tzu, who he feared like a tiger......

However, Jia Qiang did not stop there, he stared at Jia Zheng with a very solemn face, and asked word by word: "Do you know what you were talking about just now?" Second master, are you crazy?! If you really don't want to live, and want to die for those wolf ambitions, so as to fulfill the so-called Great Dao in your heart, I can fulfill you now! Behind the ancestral hall, Jia Jing's idiot is waiting for you!! ”

At this moment, Jia Qiang finally figured out one thing in her mind.

He originally thought that in the original world, Prince Li You and Emperor Long An did not deal with each other, and they were villains, so in the original world, they would be hostile to the Jia family.

Now it seems, bullshit!

It was actually a group of brainless fools from the Jia family, who stood on the opposite side.

Li You, the prince of Zhongshun, is a person of Emperor Long An.

Jia Qiang really didn't expect that the Jia family would actually come out with a guardian to complain for the emperor!

What a fucking thing!

But thinking about the history of the Cao Gong family in his previous life, he seems to be able to understand a little.

Because Cao Gong's family has been trying to stand on the side of "orthodoxy", and in the end, his home was raided twice in a row, and he ended up in a situation where the land was really clean?

He originally thought that Jia Jing, Jia Zhen, Jia Yu and the like were the bane of the Jia family, but he didn't expect that even Jia Zheng was one of the banes, and it was still a big bane!

……

PS: Cao Gong family, Jiangning Cao family, in the Kowloon succession, first stand the prince, after the prince was abolished, the eighth elder brother was abolished, and after the eighth elder brother was abolished, he stood fourteen elder brothers, and the fourteenth elder brother was also finished, after Yongzheng ascended the throne, his family actually abolished the prince's son Honghui, because he thought that this was the grandson of Yuan, and finally the Cao family who had been prominent in Jiangnan for sixty years, completely finished the calf. What is the way to operate like a god......
