Chapter 253: The First Fire

Coming out of Rongqing Hall, Jia Cong returned to Mozhu Courtyard first.

At this moment, the girls of the Mozhu Courtyard all seem to be incarnated as Wangfu Stone, and they are about to see through the autumn water.

When Jia Cong's figure appeared outside the second gate in a flying fish suit, the four little girls Juan'er, Mi'er, Xiaozhu and Xiaojiao'er cheered.

Ping'er, Qingwen, Xiaohong, Chunyan, Xiangling and others also laughed excitedly.

This is home......

After Jia Cong said in his heart, he strode forward.

Before and after, the excited laughter on everyone's faces disappeared, and tears rolled down one after another.

Compared with the impression, Jia Cong seems to have changed a person, and he has lost a lot of weight.

However, the spirit is getting stronger and stronger, and there is a sharp aura.

Thinking that he was originally as good as a jade son, but he has become a military general, how can it not make people feel distressed?

At the moment, Wufu is not as good as a showy scholar.

It's just that they don't dislike it, but pity it.

Jia Cong smiled and said: "It's not important, the scholars before the Tang Dynasty all got on the horse for the general to get off the horse." When you go on a horse to fight, you will sleep in the open air, and you will inevitably be dark and thin. After getting off the horse, brocade clothes and jade food, pampered and habitual, will become white like jade. Skin-bearing things, Doyle Jr. I am always me inside, and there is no change. ”

Having said that, Qingwen and the others were still distressed, Ping'er was more careful and steady, and she smiled forcefully: "Let's go home first." ”

Jia Cong shook his head and said, "This place is not a return home. The expression was complicated and sad.

As soon as these words came out, Ping'er and others changed color one after another, and they didn't understand what they meant. I thought that Jia Mu and the others had taken back their residence and were going to the East Road Courtyard again......

Jia Cong suddenly smiled brightly and said: "The Son of Heaven has given me a favor and given me a loyal and brave uncle, and the commander of the army in brocade clothes, and he gave him the family business of the Dongfu Mansion." Now, our home is in Dongfu. ”

"Huh?!"

Everyone was surprised and delighted when they heard this, and they couldn't believe it!

Not to mention that Jia Cong won the title of earl, and what kind of command position, just the Duke's Mansion in Dongfu was enough to make everyone faint.

They are all familiar with Jia's family affairs, how can they not know the luxury of Dongfu, and even more so than the Rongfu.

The beauty of Huifangyuan is covetous, even Sister Jia Mufeng and others are greedy, not to mention the girls?

Moreover, although the Rong Mansion is good, there are really too many masters on the head, and in order not to cause trouble for Jia Cong, they can only be trapped in a Mozhu courtyard, day after day, how boring.

But Dongfu is different, there is no master there, even if the You family and the Qin family are there, but they have no serious position, and only two of them are nothing.

Anywhere like Rongfu, throwing a stone can throw a master......

Now that I have Dongfu, it's just, it's ......

Qingwen, Xiaohong and others were about to jump with joy!

Jia Cong smiled warmly at Ping'er: "Sister Ping'er will take them to pack their things, and when I come back from visiting the eldest lady in the East Road Courtyard, we will go to the new home to settle down." Although you can't live in Ning'an Hall, you can choose a serious compound to live in. He looked at Qingwen, Chunyan, Juan'er, Mi'er and others: "Over the years, you have followed me around and endured all the hardships, and now you are finally willing to come to the bitterness." ”

Qingwen, Chunyan and the others who said these words were hazy with tears and shed tears.

Jia Cong smiled and said to Ping'er: "Take them to clean up, and let Aunt Feng and Sister-in-law Liu also prepare and move to Dongfu." ”

Ping'er was also quite happy to move to Dongfu to live alone, and pursed her lips and responded with a smile: "Hmm! ”

……

East Road Yard.

It was another year of autumn, and after Jia Cong entered the door, Xu Tai, the steward of the East Road Courtyard, led a group of servants to hurriedly come forward and salute.

At the beginning, Xu Tai was very afraid of Jia Cong, and now when he sees Jia Cong's flying fish python suit, he is even more respectful.

Jia Cong looked at the small ear room behind the rockery and asked, "This year, is it okay here?" ”

Xu Tai said respectfully: "If you go back to your master, everything is fine, before the second master of the chain went to the southern province, he came here every day." Two. Grandma also comes back and forth every morning, just two. Grandma can't enter the wife's house, only outside to say goodbye. ”

Jia Cong was shocked when he heard this, as early as a year ago, he knew that Mrs. Xing's temperament had become more and more withdrawn after being injured.

She suffered a penetrating injury to her lungs, and was pressed by Wang Shanbao's family, in the era when there were no antibiotics, she was able to forcibly save a life, thanks to being raised in a rich family.

It was only after the purulent infection, and the difficulty of breathing, that made her worse than dead.

After being injured, she couldn't see the light, the wind, or the living, and it was difficult for her to speak, just like living in a ghost, and it was difficult for her temperament to remain the same.

But she is still alive and strong, and she is not dead......

But it's good to be alive, with such a mother-in-law, it won't cause trouble, and it can stop some people from pointing fingers at him.

Because of the presence of my mother-in-law, it is not easy for others to make decisions directly on many things.

For example, in the event of marriage, we pay attention to the orders of our parents and the words of the matchmaker.

With Mrs. Xing here, others cannot force a marriage with him.

This kind of thing is not impossible, for example...... Ye Qing.

Thinking of the girl who pitted him miserably, with Jia Cong's temperament, he couldn't help but feel a burst of anger.

But he quickly got rid of it, and he was now more and more able to control his anger.

waved Xu Tai away and asked him to find a disciple who called Wang Cheng.

Wang Chengyuan was Ni's second-hand subordinate, and Jia Cong was short of people at the beginning, so he transferred this person to the East Road Courtyard as his eyes and ears.

After Wang Cheng came, he was excited to see Jia Cong, bowed his head, and shed tears before he could speak.

Jia Cong saw that his expression was wrong, and frowned: "What's wrong?" ”

Wang Chengdao: "Master, Second Master Ni has an accident. ”

Jia Cong's heart sank and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Cheng cried: "Second Master Ni listened to his master's words that day and dispersed his subordinates for the time being. Most of those pickers are honest people who are looking for them from the surrounding farms, and in the past, they were protected by the master and Ni Erye, just selling vegetables and vegetables, and Ni Erye also persuaded them to put aside their hands for the time being on the day of Ni Erye's dismissal, but those farmers thought that without Ni Erye's protection, they could still sell vegetables and take a small margin, so they did it themselves. As a result, within two days of the master's expedition, many peasant merchants were beaten by the Yuncao Gang, and forced them to sell vegetables for them in the future.

When Second Master Ni was in charge of them, he only took 30% of the profits, but the Yuncao Gang forcibly collected 80% of the profits. You can earn a lot of money by picking and selling vegetables, and the remaining 20% is not even enough for a day's rations. But they didn't comply, and the people of the Yuncao Gang beat them to death.

There was no way for those pickers to do anything, so they could only search for Second Master Ni, and they really let them find it.

When I met, I cried and kowtowed, Ni Erye was a righteous man, and those pickers were all picked out by him from the surrounding farms, although he didn't listen to him, he couldn't bear to abandon them.

At the beginning, Ni Erye was also familiar with the Yuncao Gang, and many vegetables and vegetables outside the city were transported to Jinguangmen on the Cao Canal by the Yuncao Gang.

Ni Erye thought that he could solve it by saying a favor based on his past friendship, but he didn't want the Yuncao Gang to tear his face, and before he finished speaking, he took Ni Erye down, and after a beating, he was sent to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses.

I'm still in it to this day, and I don't know if I still have a life ......."

When Jia Cong heard this, his face was gloomy, he knew that the Yuncao Gang suddenly turned his face, it was not the idea of the Yuncao Gang at all, but that there was a problem with the people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division behind him.

Otherwise, even if he went on an expedition, with the aura of the Guogong Mansion, the Yuncao Gang would not dare to move Ni Er's finger no matter how long he had ten guts.

But with the addition of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, it's different......

Although the current Five Cities Terracotta Division is only a six-grade yamen, it is completely inconspicuous in Beijing.

However, its power is not small, including arresting thieves, inspecting wind and fire, managing markets, cleaning up streets and canals, examining corpse injuries, compiling and examining shopkeepers, and providing relief to the poor.

In later generations, it is equivalent to the garrison area and the city's police station.

It may not be worth mentioning for the upper-class figures, but for ordinary people, it almost has the power of life and death.

As far as Jia Cong knows, the commander who is now in charge of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division is Qiu Liang, the grandson of the Marquis of Jingtian, the founder of the country.

Jingtian Hou Mansion is close to the Jia family.

When Qiu Liang's father was defeated, he lost the city and humiliated his teacher, and the crime should be asked to behead his family.

However, it was the first Rongguo Dai Shangong to remember the high merit of the Marquis of Jingtian, so he asked to be exempted from the capital crime and only removed the title.

The Qiu family treated the Jia family very respectfully, and Qiu Liang planned the duties of the soldiers and horses of the five cities, and the Jia family also made efforts......

Hehe, but I don't want to, this bastard is so daring.

Jia Cong saw Wang Cheng crying, knowing that the Wang family had helped the righteous Ni Er, so he was loyal, so he said: "You don't have to worry, I just went to the battlefield and nothing happened, so Second Brother Ni will not worry about his life." You go to the Jingtian Marquis Mansion now and inform his family that I want to see Second Brother Ni before the first hour tonight. ”

Before Wang Cheng could respond, he saw Xu Tai leading a person in, and as soon as he appeared, he knelt on the ground and cried: "Childe......"

"Xingyan?"

Jia Cong saw that it was Lin Chengzhi of Shihantang, and asked, "But it's because of Second Brother Ni's matter?" ”

Lin Cheng raised his head when he heard this, and cried: "Not only that, son, even my family's Shihan Hall has been taken away. If I hadn't run fast, I wouldn't have been able to see my son, and I wouldn't have been able to take care of Aunt Ni and my mother......"

Hearing this, Jia Cong laughed angrily: "It seems that there are really a lot of people who think that I will die, and the bull ghosts, snakes, and gods have all come out like this...... Who won the Shihan Hall? ”

Lin Cheng said hatefully: "The villain secretly inquired for half a year, only to find out that it was Shi Shouyi, the third son of the Zuo Shilang Mansion of the Ministry of Industry, the third son of the Shilang Mansion was originally going to marry Li Wende's sister, and the son of Li Shilang's family secretly opened a rich gambling stall and embezzled my family's property. Later, Gongzi made a move, let Li Wende die, Li Shilang was also dismissed and went home, and the family affairs of the Li family and the Shi family were stopped, I didn't think that Shi Shouyi had been holding a grudge, and he started it within two days after Gongzi left, by the way, now the rich gambling stall is open again! ”

Jia Cong laughed again when he heard this, and asked, "Is the storyteller still here under the name of Shihantang?" ”

Lin Cheng was ashamed and said: "They have all been beaten out, and now they are occupied by ninth-rate strongmen from all over the capital, wantonly squeezing and blackmailing, son, villain is ashamed of the child's entrustment!" ”

After that, he knelt on the ground and wept and kowtowed.

After Jia Cong shouted, he said: "You can protect yourself, you are extremely smart, if you learn the muddy method of Second Brother Ni, it will be bad." In this way, you first go to Qiu's house with Wang Cheng and bring back Second Brother Ni. Send him directly to see Aunt Ni to reassure Auntie.

The matter of Shihantang, I will send someone to deal with it tomorrow.

Don't worry, no matter who it is, no one who has bullied us will be able to escape! ”

The new official took office three times, and I don't know how many people bullied him when he was young, waiting for him to laugh.

It's okay, he will use Qiu Liang and Shi Shouyi's heads to burn the first fire!
