Jia Ke took over the title deed, a total of three. Looking at these land deeds, Jia Ke asked strangely, "How did Ang Lee get so much property?" ”

Liu Hong said: "I think I used more than 20% of the rent money to accumulate slowly. ”

Lin Zhixiao retorted: "No, the money, land, and jewelry add up to dozens of times the land rent he privately increased, and it can't be the money of the ground rent." ”

Liu Hong followed Lin Zhixiao's words and said: "That is, someone took the money and handed it to Li An, asked him to buy the land on his behalf, and put it in the name of Jiafu to avoid taxes." ”

Jia Ke said: "No matter who this person is, this land is mine now." Let him steal chickens and lose rice. ”

Lin Zhixiao said: "It's better to clarify the problem." Let Liu Yu ask Ang Li again. See what he has to say. ”

Jia Ke said: "What you say also makes sense. Liu Yu. You'll ask later. ”

Liu Yu replied: "I'll do it." "Said this is the door.

Jia Ke said to Lin Zhixiao: "You carefully count the confiscated property, don't miss anything, we will go back to the house tomorrow, don't let the family find loopholes." ”

Lin Zhixiao agreed. After giving Jia Ke a salute. So I went out to check it out.

Liu Hong said to Jia Ke: "Uncle, I will also help Lin Zhixiao." ”

Jia Ke said, "Go ahead." Be careful, be careful. ”

After a while, Liu Yu came back and said to Jia Ke: "Uncle, do you know what's going on, it turned out to be Lai Da's money, Li Anbang bought the land, these lands are all taken care of by Li Anbang." ”

Jia Ke said: "I guess it's his house." There is no one else in Jia Mansion except his family. ”

After dinner, Lin Zhixiao talked back and forth.

"Uncle has already found out, a total of five thousand three hundred and twenty-five taels of silver. The field is 1320 acres. 120 pieces of gold and silver jewelry. ”

"I didn't expect there to be so many. After a while, you will ask you if Ang Lee's confession has been completed. If it's all right. You can all rest. We'll be back home tomorrow morning. ”

Lin Zhixiao said: "I have already read the confession just now. There is no problem, it is very clear, although the uncle can rest assured. ”

Early the next morning, Jia Ke called Lin Zhixiao. Asked, "Yesterday's looted belongings." Whether it has been loaded. ”

Lin Zhixiao replied: "Don't worry about Uncle Labor. It has been loaded and nothing is missing. ”

Jia Ke said. "Call Liu Yu in, I have something to say." Lin Zhixiao went out and brought Liu Yu into the hall.

Jia Ke said to Liu Yuyu: "Leave two soldiers to guard the house. The others pressed the car and followed me home. ”

Liu Yu agreed, and went out to order.

After a while, Lin Zhixiao came in and said, "Uncle, everything is ready." Do you want to go now? ”

Jia Ke said: "Now that you are ready, you will be ready to go on the road after breakfast, and strive to return to Jiafu before dark." ”

After having some breakfast, Jia Ke walked out of the door and saw five or six cars parked at the door, and Jia Ke still got into the first car. Lin Zhixiao sat on the edge of the car with the coachman as usual, and the convoy began to drive in the direction of the official road.

The convoy came to the official road and walked all the way in the direction of the capital.

Because of the early departure, there was no obstacle along the way, so I returned to Jiafu in the afternoon.

The convoy stopped in front of the West Corner Gate, and a servant hurriedly stepped forward to ask,

Lin Zhixiao stepped forward and explained: "This is the uncle coming back. Get out of the way and let the convoy in. ”

But where did the servant dare to let so many strangers go in casually. The two sides were entangled, and Jia Ke got out of the car at this time, and the servant immediately went up and saluted him. Jia Ke said to him: "I have something to see my father, you open the door and let us in, don't worry about it without you." ”

When the convoy entered the West Corner Gate, Jia Ke said to Lin Zhixiao: "You wait here first, and arrange for everyone to rest first, and I will go to my father to explain the reason to him first." ”

Lin Zhixiao said: "Uncle, just go, I will arrange no accident here." ”

Jia Ke said again: "You gave me Li An's testimony and confession, as well as the financial information from Li An's family. ”

Lin Zhixiao dared to hurriedly take out a pile of paper from his arms and hand it to Jia Ke.

Jia Ke took it in his hand, looked through it, and saw that there was nothing missing, so he put it in his arms.

Seeing that there was nothing missing, Jia Ke went to Jia Zheng's outer study --- Mengpo Zhai. When I arrived at the small house outside the small study, I was surprised to see that it was Jia Ke, it was rumored that Jia Ke was driven to the countryside, why did he appear here? But he still stepped forward to greet him.

Jia Ke asked him, "Can my father be in the study?" ”

The little guy hurriedly replied: "The master is in the study, playing chess with several ministers. ”

Jia Ke said, "You go in and report to me." And he said that I wanted to see my father. ”

The little guy didn't dare to slack off, and immediately went in to return.

After a while, he saw the door curtain open, and Jia Zheng walked out quickly, followed by his customers. As soon as Jia Ke saw Jia Zheng come out in person, he immediately stepped forward, knelt on the ground and saluted Jia Zheng, and said: "Unfilial son Jia Ke, knock on your father and ask your father how he is well." ”

Jia Zheng hadn't seen Jia Ke for a few months, and he missed it very much, and when he saw Jia Ke kneeling on the ground and making a big salute, he stepped forward to help Jia Ke up. said: "My son is well, is he used to it in Xia Caozhuang." ”

Jia Ke got up and replied: "My son is all right in Xia Caozhuang, he practices martial arts every day, drills his own soldiers, and lives a very fulfilling life. ”

Qingke Zhan Guang saw that their father and son were talking non-stop outside the study, so he stepped forward and said: "Dong Weng, it is not a place to talk in the courtyard, and it is not too late to enter the house in the preface. ”

Jia Zheng came to his senses, took Jia Ke's hand, and entered the study.

Jia Zheng's Siqing guests saw that their father and son had not seen each other for many days, and now they must have something to say, so they took their leave.

In the study, Jia Zheng sat on the main seat, and Jia Ke stood beside Jia Zheng. Jia Zheng's mood calmed down at this time, returned to his original seriousness, and asked Jia Ke with a straight face: "You are not practicing in Caozhuang and practicing martial arts." What do you do when you come home? I can tell you, if you are greedy for the prosperity of Beijing and can't bear it, I advise you to accept this thought, otherwise I will break your legs. ”

Jia Ke hurriedly said: "Practicing martial arts is the path chosen by the son himself, no matter how difficult it is, the son will go on, and it is really important to come back today, and report to his father." ”

Jia Zheng didn't come back because he was greedy for glory and afraid of hard work, and nodded with satisfaction. I heard Jia Ke say that there was something important to report, so he said: "You are a young man, if you have anything important, go back to see your aunt if you are fine, she misses you very much these days when you are away." ”

Jia Ke hurriedly said: "Father, my son is really in trouble, I don't know my father, but I remember that a few days ago, my son's Zhuangzi Wangjiatun reported that there was a drought this year. ”

Jia Zheng thought that Jia Ke was worried about Zhuangzi, so he said: "You don't have to help me do this for you, you just need to concentrate on practicing, don't worry about other things." ”

Jia Ke said to Jia Zheng: "Son, it was because of this incident that my son found out that this matter was jointly deceived by Li An, the steward of Wangjiatun, and Lai Da, and Wangjiatun did not suffer at all. ”

When Jia Zheng heard this, he was surprised and said: "How is this possible, how can Lai Da serve in our family for many years without making a mistake, how can he do such a betrayal of the Lord." ”

Jia Ke said to Jia Zheng: "How dare the father and son deceive the father. He said that while taking out the evidence from his arms and handing it to Jia Zheng, he said: "Father, this is Li An's confession and the property from Li An's family." ”

Jia Zheng took it, looked through it carefully, and when he saw only half of it, he was furious, and said, "This dog slave doesn't have a royal law?" See that I don't skin him. ”

Jia Zheng said to Jia Ke: "You go back to rest first and have a good reunion with your aunt, this matter must be explained to Jia Fu." ”
