It's night.

The inner courtyard is still on the pear blossom round table.

A large table full of dishes, two pots of apricot blossom sake and a pot of Shaoxing rice wine are placed in the center.

The candlelight on both sides illuminates the room as if it were bright day, and the atmosphere is not sad, but it is inevitably low.

Since ancient times, there has been a lot of affection and parting, and it is even more so that the Qingqiu Festival is cold......

Baochai has always been reluctant to trouble people with her own affairs, but she can only force a smile tonight.

Daiyu was more mature than Jia Cong imagined, warmly beckoning everyone to eat and toast with rice wine.

It's just that the atmosphere is still lively......

At this time, it depends on the man's responsibility.

Jia Cong said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Sister Bao and Ping'er are both from Southern Province, although they can't be stubborn this time, it's not too deep a pity, and there will be opportunities in the future." And even if you stay, I'm afraid you can only go to the Buddhist temple with Sister Lin. I'm going to be very busy soon, tidying up the Bai family, and there are big fish in the back. That's right......"

Saying that, Jia Cong looked at the quiet Qingxi in white at the end, and said lightly: "Qingxi girl, I heard that it was the Bai family who brought you from the capital to Jinling, and Wangjiang Pavilion is also the property of the Bai family. Three days later, I will raid the Bai family, and I will ask all over the door, do you have anything to say to him? ”

Since warmth can't alleviate the sad and miserable parting atmosphere, let's use serious things to impact.

Hearing this, Qingxi's beautiful and cold face seemed to be getting more and more pale, she raised her eyes, looked at Jia Cong, and said in a clear voice: "I know what the adults mean, but I owe the Bai family a favor, and I have already repaid it."

Back then, it was my father...... My father's old protégé in the same year, the head of the Bai family, brought me back to Jiangnan from the Duzhong Teaching Workshop.

Over the years, they have been taking care of the Bai family's business. I also earned a lot of silver for Wangjiang Pavilion......

Therefore, the Bai family has nothing to do with me.

He was also my father's protégé, and he wrote a letter to me in response to the congratulations of the Heavenly Mansion and the Governor, asking me to ask for the adult's protégé to ask for it. ”

When Jia Cong heard this, he nodded, looked at Qingxi and said, "Whether you hide it or not, I believe you now, because my husband Song Changong also guarantees you." He said that Wang Zhining's bloodline must be above board. Young girl, I can give you a little bit of leakage, but you must not leak it. ”

Qingxi didn't speak, and looked at Jia Cong quietly with everyone.

Jia Cong said: "The excerpt handed over by Ling Zun back then was not tolerated by the Son of Heaven and the Manchu Dynasty. However, it is extremely into the eyes of Prince Chengyong, that is, the eyes of today's son. My husband told me that His Majesty had privately missed Lord Ling Zun several times, and thought that he was the first loyal and good minister in the world who loved the people. It's just that...... After all, the emperor is still there, so he ...... for a while

But sooner or later, Ling Zun will have the day to wash away the grievances on his body.

So, whether or not anyone is secretly encouraging you, you'd better stay clear.

There are forty-six members of the royal family, and the innocence and glory of forty-five of the four families except you are all in you.

Don't be taken advantage of......"

Jia Cong said, Qingxi's already fair skin, under the illumination of the lamp, there is no trace of blood, almost transparent.

Tears flowed slowly, and the whole person seemed to be in an eternal and still space......

This scene, not to mention that the other girls were moved, even Jia Cong himself squinted his eyes slightly.

It's just that there is still no soft-heartedness.

In his position, if he is still easily affected by some shallow factors, it will be difficult for a long time.

Also, he doesn't feel very secure......

After a long while, Qingxi Fang came back to his senses, got up and thanked Jia Cong, and said in a rustling voice: "My lord, Qingxi is willing to return to Chang'an with Miss Xue, wait for the news of the court's rehabilitation, and then take half a step south of the Yangtze River." ”

When Jia Cong heard this, his pupils contracted, and there was really someone behind this woman!

She was for the sake of the innocence and rehabilitation of the Wang family, so she had to leave Jiangnan and cut off contact.

Jia Cong nodded slowly, not forcing her to ask who was behind her.

This woman's mind was already as hard as iron, and if he hadn't touched her family's innocence, she would never have been able to ask anything.

Since she doesn't say it, she has her own thoughts.

However, she could not be left in the house anymore.

Jia Cong looked at Qingxi and said, "You have an obsession in your heart, and you can't be free." After returning to Beijing, I will ask someone to arrange a quiet and top-secret residence for you, so that no one will disturb you, and prepare more books for you. When I return to Beijing, I will mention the matter of the Wang family in front of His Majesty. ”

Qingxi wept again, bent his knees and blessed, thanked him, and after saluting the women, he turned around and left.

Without a hint of pyrotechnics.

"Whew!"

After Qingxi left, Jia Cong exhaled softly, the solemnity on his face eased, and he looked at everyone staring at him, smiled, and said, "Qingxi is carrying something too heavy, so heavy that she has long forgotten how to laugh." There's not much I can do, just help her reduce a little. ”

Daiyu was a little puzzled: "But...... You ...... to her just now."

Where is Jia Cong's tenderness to Qingxi just now? It's just cold.

Jia Cong explained with a smile: "She is not my relative, not even my friend, if it were not for her husband's advice, I would not let her into the house, although she is the No. 1 Oiran in Jiangnan......

I can't avoid it, but I want to make sure she doesn't have too many causal threads involved. Just now, I was trying to help her cut the thread that was pulling her back. ”

The women were stunned, Jia Cong was amused when she saw it, and waved her hand and said: "Don't talk about this, solve this matter in front of you, just to tell everyone that our parting pain is not worth too much sorrow, we should cherish the beauty of the present...... Come, let's make this bowl of chicken soup first, and then drink. ”

"Hee-hee!"

The scene was finally brought to life by Jia Cong, and everyone raised their bowls......

"!"

……

Jinling Mansion, Jiangnan Governor's Yamen.

East Dynasty House.

Governor Fang Yue, Governor Guo Zhao, Political Envoy Tang Yan, and Inspector Zhuge Tai were all present with solemn faces.

Especially Tang Yan, the political envoy, his face was even more pale, his expression was almost angry, and he shouted loudly: "What does he want to do?" What does he want to do? ”

Zhao Yin, the prefect of Yangzhou, is not only a cadre of the New Party, but also a protégé of Tang Yin.

Civil officials are not as noble as martial arts, and they can be passed down by blood.

However, civil officials can train their own protégés, pass on power from generation to generation, and protect future generations.

This can also be seen as another kind of hereditary.

Tang Yan has been the chief examiner of the township examination, and there is only one Zhao Yin who has really earned and grown up, and there is only one Zhao Yin, who originally had high hopes and spent a lot of energy to support him, but he didn't want to reap the results before he could reap the results, so he was sent to prison by Jia Cong for the crime of rebellion.

This kind of pain is not much better than the pain of losing a child.

Lacking the inheritance of power, after he steps down, who will protect his Tang family?

This is the foundation of his destruction!

Fang Yue and Guo Zhao didn't speak, there was such a big case of rebellion in the Jiangnan region, and they couldn't escape the blame for supervising the two.

So many important people were controlled by a salt merchant, and the letters were like drinking domestic slaves, and they even attracted 2,000 troops and horses......

Such a horrific scandal made them fall into an ice cave.

At this time, who would pay attention to Tang Yan's clamour?

Jia Cong had already sent over the "hand-copied versions" of the dozen or so letters written by Bai Shijie to Jiangnan officialdom, like more than a dozen slaps in the faces of the four senior officials in Jiangnan.

Not only could they not fight back, but they also took the initiative to wipe Jia Cong's buttocks......

Because this incident is so appalling that the slightest carelessness will lead to a burn.

Tang Yan was not so much shouting at the moment as he was afraid.

"Yuan Gong, in your opinion, what should I do now?"

Fang Yue's face was blank, and he glanced coldly at Tang Yanhou, who was looking very inward, and asked the silent Zhuge Tai.

Zhuge Tai pondered for a while, sighed, and said: "No one expected that these new party cadres who had high hopes would degenerate to this point in just three or four years. Now, let's start first and take down those people that Jia Qingchen has not yet won in advance. Then report it to the court and ask for guilt. ”

"No way!"

At this moment, Tang Yan's performance did not have the bearing of a feudal lord at all, he was like a furry wild cat, and he jumped to his feet excitedly and asked Zhuge Tai: "What are your intentions?" You're trying to kill us......"

"Zhongda stops!"

Fang Yue drank in a deep voice, drank Tang Yanhou, and said sharply: "Do you think that if we don't play, the Jia family won't play?" If we really want to wait for him to arrest Jiangnan officialdom, it will be difficult for us to return to our hometown! ”

Governor Guo Zhao laughed miserably and said: "Yuan Fu counted the world and counted Jia Jiazi to Jiangnan, the original intention was to wait for us to wait for the knife, but I didn't mean that Tai'a hung upside down, the blade was too sharp, and he didn't hurt the enemy, but he hurt himself first, it's really ironic." ”

Tang Yan couldn't help but say: "From the time that Huangkou boy first arrived in Jinling, I could see that he was not a good person, and he was clearly coming to my new party, and he was the root of the old party in his bones!" Now that he has finally shown his tail, he has unscrupulously brutalized and harmed the people of our New Party...... Yes, Zhao Yin and they did have it, but it was just a small one, compared to the new law and the prosperity of Chongkang, these small mistakes are insignificant!

What kind of rebellion, Bai Shijie is not a madman, he has no officials and no soldiers, but he is good at doing business with some officials, how can he be involved in rebellion?

If you want me to see it, this is clearly the yellow-mouthed child who brutalized my New Party official!

Governor and Fuchen, you two adults must seek justice for my Jiangnan New Party officials!

If this continues, how can the new law be implemented in the face of panic? ”

The governor didn't say anything, Zhuge Tai said coldly: "Small? The dignified prefect of a state was shouted and drunk. Two thousand city defense soldiers and horses, even we have no right to transfer, what virtue can Bai Shijie have, can he be mobilized as a businessman? What is this not a major case of rebellion?

Lord Tang, you'd better understand that if we fall into passivity again in this matter, it will inevitably be a catastrophe, and there will be no place to die! ”

Fang Yue stopped Tang Yan's counterattack and said in a deep voice: "According to what the Yuan Palace said, quickly go to the court to ask for guilt." In addition, Lao Yuangong went to Yangzhou and acted together with Jia Qingchen. This time, it can be regarded as an internal self-examination of our new party. ”

Tang Yan's face turned red, and he said, "Governor, do you want to let that yellow-mouthed child show off his might?" ”

Fang Yue narrowed his eyes and said, "If after this time, he hasn't made a move, the land south of the Yangtze River will make it difficult for him to move an inch!" ”

……

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa......"

"Ahhh......h

In the guest room of Yangzhou Yanzheng Yamen Intermediate Courtyard, Xue Pan lay on the bed, crying so sad, so helpless, thinking of holding back on the boat for two months, Xue Pan only felt that his life was bleak, thinking that his brother Zhao Si had arranged so many famous prostitutes and so many red princesses for him, he actually only had time to take a look, and his heart hurt as much as an awl cone, and he made up his mind that he would have a good fight with his mother after he went back......
