Chapter 302: Wang Ren's Death
A gold post stamped with Jia Cong's private seal was in Zhen Baoyu's hand, and he looked at the person who was invited to sit down, about the same age as himself, Zhen Baoyu's face was slightly urgent: "I have eyes and don't know Mount Tai in my later life, I don't know that the adult is actually the imperial history of the three provinces, forgive the sin." ”
"He who does not know is not guilty."
The Zhen family and the Jia family have a friendship in the world, before the house was raided, the stolen money was also transferred to the Jia family and the Shi family, the Jia family produced a champion, Zhen Baoyu had heard of it a long time ago, after this person's temperament changed greatly, seeing Jia Cong, he couldn't help but be eager to live, but the original arrogance made him unable to completely put down his body.
"The walls of the humble house are bleak, and there is no way to entertain guests, so I really neglect adults." Zhen Baoyu turned his sideways eyes during the day into an elegant man who talked eloquently: "I don't know ...... adults are here."
"After all, your two families are friends of the world." Jia Cong's face was approachable, but he didn't speak in an equal tone: "Speaking of the sinister Huan Hai, your Zhen family put the silver in our Jia family, prompting the imperial history to impeach Jia Mansion for harboring stolen silver, which is really harmful to others and yourself, do you have any grudges against my family?" Do you want to pull a cushion on your back like this? ”
Zhen Baoyu's face was so impatient that his face was red, and he said in his heart: "This Jia Cong really lives up to his reputation, as soon as he comes, he humiliates me like this, and gives me a dismount...... But what is the purpose of his visit? ”
He hurriedly distinguished: "My lord, I didn't know about this matter at the time, and even if I knew, I couldn't be the master, not to mention the affairs of my fathers, you and I can't ignore it, how can we add it to our children and grandchildren?" ”
Jia Cong shook his head and vetoed: "The father's debt is repaid by the son, and the father's revenge is avenged by the son, why doesn't it matter?" ”
The corners of Zhen Baoyu's mouth twitched slightly, and he withered, gaining a psychological advantage, Jia Cong said indifferently: "That's it, the past has become a cloud of smoke, what kind of talent is the world brother who is studying in the house now?" ”
"Second-class augmentation."
"The heavens will descend on the people, they must first suffer their minds, starve their bodies and skin, and work their muscles and bones, how about the family resources of the world?"
"It's so poor, even if there are Yi people in the old courtyard of Qinhuai, they can't be redeemed."
"Wen Erzhen's family has suffered this drastic change, and the official is also saddened, if you add a few more stores, I will help you with the supply of goods, how about it?"
Zhen Baoyu has been respectful so far: "I should thank you." ”
Sending Jia Cong out of the house, Zhen Baoyu returned to the house with mixed feelings and couldn't sleep, Jia Cong gave him a sum of silver, informed the contact person in Guazhou, and asked him to hire a tooth shop, a porter, and a porter to run it.
For him, in fact, money is still a trivial matter, the important thing is to catch Jia Cong, the future is more promising, and Jia Cong is now also the backbone of the Dashun Yongle Dynasty.
Because of this, he wanted to pretend to be a man of great talent, a habitual method of scholars and those who claimed to be learned, in order to obtain more things.
It's a pity that his tricks have nothing to hide in front of Jia Cong, but they have been broken, aren't many people who read books so good at talking?
On the other hand, the once noble and luxurious life, and today's gap, willing to run for others, made him a little unacceptable for a while, his father Zhen Yingjia is also the "president of the Qincha Jinling Provincial Tiren Institute".
"Alas...... A dynasty plays nine heavens, and the sunset falls to Chaoyang Road eight thousand, thinking that I had a beautiful dream of the boudoir, brocade clothes and jade food, and now I have to be a subordinate......"
Jia Cong originally wanted to go to the Qin family in Changganli, but he was chased by someone from the Jia family, saying that a letter came from Yangzhou. Jia Cong didn't hesitate to go home, putting aside the matter of going to see Qin Keqing.
……
In Jia Jiaxi's cross-courtyard study at the foot of Qingliang Mountain, Jia Cong read the two letters from Liu Zhiyuan from Yangzhou without turning his eyes, concentratingly, and word for word, and then his face became gloomy little by little.
Miaoyu placed another kind of copper coin brought back by Jia Cong, while reading the book for identification, seeing that his face was not good, she turned around and made a cup of tea, the fragrance entered her nose, and then took the letter and put it on the table, sitting next to him: "Something happened?" ”
After a cup of tea, Jia Cong's spirit improved, "Liu Zhiyuan's minions met the Songjiang Huating family who sent a secret letter into the palace in Yangzhou. This old Hanlin is the father of Pi Shixuan, one of the three families of Jiang Zuo back then, named Pi Xuezhi. ”
"Pi Xuezhi used to be the emperor's teacher, and Liu Zhiyuan didn't dare to detain it wantonly. Instead, he asked the messenger to go in, got drunk, stole the secret letter and came out to see, and he didn't drop the bag. ”
"According to Liu Zhiyuan's guess, it was Jasven who instigated him and sued me. Now Yan Ming and Jia Siwen are attacking Liu Zhiyuan, and the most terrible thing is that Lu Zemin, the imperial historian of Jiangxi Province, has written a letter to impeach me for ten crimes. ”
There is one more thing he didn't say, according to the news that Liu Zhiyuan got from the palace, Yuan Chun seemed to be exhausted and was seriously ill, Miaoyu frowned and said: "Then you don't have to work, suspend and wait for investigation, let them make trouble." ”
Miaoyu said in a hateful tone: "Those who really want to serve the country and the people have not ended well in ancient times, and who really wants to provoke thorns, who has not, it can be seen that it is hidden in the court, and it is difficult in every way." ”
Jia Cong was amused by her, "I'm not so fragile, if the Di report is not handed down, I don't know, continue to do things, although I am not 100% sure of winning, I am still a little prepared." ”
"If you want to say that Gonggong Liu is still good to you, he notified you as soon as possible, why did you ask Qingxing and a group of people to frame him that day? Aren't you afraid that he will find out and turn against him? ”
"I did that thing very secretly, it didn't leak, Qingxing took the money, and I didn't know who the customer was. Liu Zhiyuan is a double-edged sword, I want to use him, but I can't let him stay for a long time, he is the best shield, so use him, he is too powerful to loot silver, and the place has been restless for a long time, so the officials and the people hate him and anger him, which is exactly what I want to see. ”
"Oh, I see, you're the best bad guy."
"Is it a good guy or a bad guy?"
……
On the shore of Gaoyou Lake, the reeds are rippling, Zhong Yin led Wang Ren, one of the river managers, to the boat, Wang Ren was dressed in fine clothes, and said happily: "Or Brother Cong and nephew Yun give me face, how can Jinling be happy here?" Within a few days of my arrival, I was lying down and sitting, and I had ten thousand taels of silver......"
The ship's mast was five feet, the sails were oblique, the planks were stuffed with cotton wool, and Wang Ren paced his boots: "Is this ship strong enough?" I'm going to go to the lake by myself. ”
Zhong Yin nodded slightly to a few sailors and slender men without a trace, turned around and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, the official ship of Jiangnan City's Bosi was originally equipped with Tongzhi, because Yushi looks at you old, and it's always better than Jia Tongzhi......"
"What is a relative...... Wang Ren doesn't want to retaliate against Jia Cong now, and feels that Jia Cong treats him best.
The boat broke anchor and rode the wind and waves in Gaoyou Lake, Zhong Yin's face was worried and reluctantly waved goodbye, and when the ship turned the rudder and couldn't see each other clearly, Zhong Yin sneered and returned to the Tongzhi Hall.
"Are you ready?" Jia Yun asked.
Zhong Yin said respectfully: "My lord, there will be no mistakes, the grass people grew up in Huai'an since they were children, and they are also sailors in the Yangtze River, they are most familiar with water and rudders, Gaoyou Lake has shoals and reefs, and the grass people secretly asked the carpenter to increase the rudder by an inch down......"
Jia Yun was surprised: "An extra inch can kill someone?" ”
"Yes, my lord, the rudder is the heart of the ship, and every inch more or less will kill you. The key sail has been modified, and Wang Ren does not know the goods, and he will not be able to control it when the wind is strong, and the extra inch will be stuck on the reef or run aground...... There is no physiological ......"
