It is precisely because of Jia Lian that the Jia family is now in a thriving stage, and the idea last time was also made by Jia Lian, so this time, he can only respect and please Jia Lian, and he does not dare to show the slightest malice towards Jia Lian.

"Hey, in fact, I haven't been embarrassed to be honest with Brother Liancheng just now, but in fact, this time the foolish brother went to Beijing, and he had something else to ask for."

His cheeks were slightly red, Zhen Qiyao showed a little embarrassment, and Jia Lian was embarrassed to speak.

In Zhen Qiyao's view, Jia Lian should know his intentions, but he can stabilize such a big thing as repaying the national debt, which shows that people have hole cards.

Or, he's waiting for himself to speak.

But what about that?

People have such capital, and now his Zhen family has to send arrows, and he can't help himself, so he can only be at the mercy of others.

Secretly swallowing a breath, Zhen Qiyao finally gave up dealing with Jia Lian and chose to speak directly.

Hearing this, Jia Lian's eyelids were slightly raised, and he glanced at Zhen Qiyao.

"Oh, Brother Yao's words are serious, with the friendship between you and me, there are many people who can't help or not, if you have something to say, if my Jia Mansion can help, I will naturally not refuse."

After Yun said lightly, although Jia Lian's words were good, the meaning of the two of them knew it.

If I can help you, I'll help.

And what it means to be able to help is defined by me.

If you can't help, then sorry, there's nothing you can do.

Still with a smile on his face, Jia Lian looked at Zhen Qiyao fixedly.

If Lin Ruhai is still there, this matter is in the Lin family, Jia Lian asked himself, he will definitely advance and retreat with Lin Ruhai.

But not now.

Lin Ruhai's relationship with Jia Lian is also a teacher and friend, and he has given him endless help.

Whether it is the way of being an official or the foundation of being a person.

Jia Lian dared to say that without Lin Ruhai, there would be no current Jia Lian.

But the Zhen family is different.

At the beginning, Jia Lian blamed himself for the Pei family's affairs, but Jia Lian had already decided that the Zhen family was the culprit.

So no matter how miserable the Zhen family is in the future, Jia Lian is unmoved.

Now he is doing it so that he does not affect his own body.

Therefore, if there is a little risk to the Jia family, Jia Lian will not do it.

Zhen Qiyao is a smart person, and naturally understands the meaning of Jia Lian's words, but the initiative in the current situation is not in the Zhen family, so even if he is dissatisfied, he does not dare to show it.

"That being the case, the foolish brother has thanked the elder brother here."

Pretending to be grateful, Zhen Qiyao spared no effort to close the distance between him and Jia Lian.

"To tell you the truth, since the last time I said goodbye to Suzhou, my uncle has been worried about the time of the treasury, and he has sold a lot of assets in his family."

While speaking, he paid close attention to Jia Lian's expression, and the uneasiness in Zhen Qiyao's heart became more and more intense.

Although the Zhen family did not stand in line on the surface, they actually secretly funded King Zhongshun a lot, but fortunately, for so many decades, the Zhen family did not say that they were rich enough to rival the country, but they still accumulated a family business.

So last time after Jia Lian said those words, Zhen Yingjia went back to convene the Zhen family to negotiate carefully, and finally made up his mind, for the time being, he would return part of the treasury to explore the truth first, if he could pull the Jia family together, it would naturally be the best, if not, he could only fight this pioneer and try the depth of the water.

"Uncle attaches great importance to my brother's suggestion, this time I went to Beijing, I just want to come to ask my brother, although we have tried our best to raise funds, but in the end the vitality is greatly damaged, so there is not much cash in hand, now the situation, I heard that the dark tide is surging in the court, I don't know if it is appropriate to go to the account at this time."

With a respectful attitude, when Zhen Qiyao said this, he really asked sincerely.

Now that it is winter, there is already a thin layer of ice on the river when he enters Beijing, and he basically doesn't have to think about it on the return trip.

So whether this thing happens or not, he will stay in Kyoto for most of the year.

Wait until next year's spring to see how things go, and decide whether to go back or not.

In this way, it also means that if according to the unspoken rules of the past, if Zhen Qiyao returned the national debt in private, he would inevitably provoke public anger.

The Zhen family has no one to rely on in the court now, and the Jia family has an ambiguous attitude, in case there is a good one, he really regrets it too late.

Originally, he didn't want to come to such an errand, but this kind of family matter, where can a junior like him decide.

So this time he came, although he also wanted Raja Lian to start, but if he couldn't pull it, he also understood that he must win Jia Lian's support to the greatest extent, so as not to offend the nobles, and he didn't know how to die.

Originally, Jia Lian thought that with Zhen Qiyao's performance just now, he would have to ink for a while, but he never thought that he would cut to the topic so quickly, which surprised him.

And this time it seems that this guy has learned smartly, his attitude is okay, and between the lines, there are no traps.

Thinking like this, the look on Jia Lian's face softened, and he glanced at Zhen Qiyao, who was respectfully looking at him, and the corners of Jia Lian's mouth hooked slightly.

"Hey~ So that's it, what should I do?"

Pretending to suddenly realize, Jia Lian put away the smugness on his face and smiled heartily at Zhen Qiyao.

"You're asking the right person about this."

Although there was no one in the study, in order to make his words more credible, Jia Lian looked around left and right, Zhen Qiyao didn't know what to do, Jia Lian looked enough, and whispered to Zhen Qiyao mysteriously.

"His Yao brother is not in the court, so he doesn't know, and now his body is getting worse and worse, and his temper is becoming more and more impatient. Although there has been no explicit mention of the return of the treasury recently, in fact, the following spies have already begun to investigate the situation from house to house based on the details in the account book. ”

The emperor didn't say anything about how long he wouldn't live, and Jia Lian chose a slightly safer path.

Zhen Qiyao, the little fox, although Jia Lian has been on guard against this person, according to the inference, the old emperor's body will probably not be able to support it for a few days.

Yesterday morning, Jia Lian almost fell asleep when he saw the old emperor go to court, if it wasn't for Dai Quan's reaction block to wake him up, I'm afraid that this matter will be known to everyone today.

So Jia Lian boldly guessed that the old emperor's body was getting weaker and weaker, although he didn't understand the details, but Jia Lian knew that the old emperor's determination to eradicate the family was unbreakable, so it must be this time, and the affairs of the treasury were about to start to make trouble.

Although these words are not secrets, they are actually very informative.

Jia Lian also needs the Zhen family to be a stepping stone for him, so he naturally hopes for him to be well.

In this way, the Zhen family became the first person to eat crabs, and he would be able to know what the crabs tasted like as soon as possible

Although Zhen Qiyao didn't understand what Jia Lian was thinking, the thinking of smart people was basically the same.

Although Jia Lian didn't give them any substantial help this time, with these words, Zhen Qiyao also had some bottom in his heart.

This time when he went to Beijing, he carried 500,000 taels of silver bills, which was originally prepared to repay the national debt, but now Jia Lian did not tell him whether it would work or not, but Zhen Qiyao already had a decision in his heart.

The Zhen family has their own house in Kyoto, although it is not as spacious as in Jinling, but at least it is their own home.

So Jia Lian invited him several times, but Zhen Qiyao still knew the times and refused Jia Lian's invitation to live in Jia's house.

Now that you have a decision in your heart, the sooner you can arrange such a thing, the more confident you will be.

Today is Jia Lian Xiumu, so Zhen Qiyao can only see him when he enters the mansion.

It was still early for the two of them to finish speaking, and although Zhen Qiyao's face was not revealed, he was actually a little anxious at this time.

At the moment, he roughly told Jia Lian that he wanted to go to the household department today, but Jia Lian persuaded him a few words that it was better to wait for a few days of rest before going, but the young man was a little young and couldn't hold back, just thinking about getting things done as soon as possible, and then waiting for the news of tomorrow's court.

So after talking to Jia Lian, Zhen Qiyao hurriedly went to Jia Yuxing's family again, offered a few Jinling specialties, and hurriedly said goodbye to Jia's family, so he could go to the household department if he wanted.

Although the treasury is usually taken care of by people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is actually under the household department.

Therefore, if Zhen Qiyao wants to repay the loan, he needs to go the way of the household department.

After sending the people away completely, Jia Lian thought about it, and then told Jia Yu about the matter.

"That person's body is afraid that it will be a few days later, and when he went to court today, he actually fell asleep, if Grandpa Dai reacted and woke people up, I am afraid that at this time, the people of Kyoto will know about our majesty's sleeping in the court."

This is why Jia Yu told these things, also because Jia Lian had just revealed a little bit of wanting to return to the treasury last time, and he was stopped by Jia Yu. But this is basically useless, it's just that Jia Lian promised Jia Yu that without informing him, he must not act rashly.

And at the moment, Jia Lian told Jia Yu what he meant, in fact, he also wanted to get Jia Yu's consent.

In Jia Lian's view, this kind of prevention is naturally done as much as possible.

And the current Jia family is no longer the empty space when Mrs. Wang was in charge of the house in the past, if Jia Yu agrees to come down, and the Zhen family's head line also plays well, then the Jia family still has this capital to repay the money.

's own son, even if he is not inside, but he has spent so much time together, and he can still guess his thoughts.

So Jia Yu just muttered a little bit, and quickly agreed with Jia Lian's statement, but added one more article.

"Although the four major families are no longer as close as they used to be, in the eyes of outsiders, we are still in-laws.

One is prosperous, one is lost, this kind of thing is not clear in one sentence or two, now you are the head of the family, I will not hinder you from what you want to do, but you yourself must also weigh clearly. ”

Although Jia Yu is a selfish person, at this time, the crime is to sit at every turn, so Jia Yu is very active and is afraid that Jia Lian will not be able to hold down when he is young, so he has to beat it.

The Xue family, the four major families, has now completely become merchants, and since the separation of the long house and the second room, they have basically not had much contact.

It's just that it's a New Year's holiday, and if the Xue family on the Jia family's side can always come over, the Jia family will have to return the gift, but that's all.

The prince of the Wang family is there, and there is basically only such a little courtesy left, Wang Ziteng holds the celebrity around the emperor, and he holds heavy soldiers, and he does not take Jia Lian in his eyes, he has beaten Jia Lian several times, and he has already been Amitabha Buddha without grudges.

As for the Shi family, it's really not that Jia Lian looks down on it, but just by looking at the Shi family, even Miss Boudoir has a non-stop job in his hands, and you still expect him to have the money to pay back the treasury!

Naive!

It's just that having said that, Jia Lian meant, since Jia Lian knows the reason, it is best to gather people together and talk together, so that everyone will also be prepared, no matter whether everyone returns it or not, there will be nothing to say in the future.

Second, Jia Lian knows everyone's attitude, so he should be prepared to avoid being injured by mistake.

"Yes, my son knows, and I'll arrange it in the evening."

The prince of the Wang family vacated back to Ping'anzhou, and Jia Lian was left with only his female dependents and Wang Xifeng's brother Wang Ren, so Jia Lian was not ready to tell the Wang family, and the Xue family didn't need it at all, so the rest was only the Shi family.

Jia Yu was very satisfied with Jia Lian's well-behavedness, and saw that since Jia Lian had already agreed, he would give up.

So in this way, Jia Lian was busy again in the afternoon.

"Wang'er, you take someone to Shi's house to see if the two Hou Ye of the Shi family are not at home, if you are at home, you tell Hou Ye that I will visit later, and then send someone back to deliver the letter, if you are not at home, you can leave a word, please ask the two Hou Ye ladies to tell Hou Ye, if you go back to the house, please come over."

The relationship between Rongguofu and the Shi family is quite harmonious, when they were in the last dynasty, they often contact each other on weekdays, and there is a Shi Xiangyun who often shuttles between the two mansions, so compared to the Wang family Xue family, it is closer to the Shi family.

The rest time of the officials of the Daxuan court was not uniform, but four days per month.

And this time, unfortunately, the two marquis of the Shi family have not come back from the yamen, so Jia Lian can only wait until the two of them get off work in the evening.

Qin Keqing knew that Jia Lian had invited the two marquis of the Shi family, so he also prepared the banquet early and waited, and when the two marquis of the Shi family arrived, Zhen Qiyao, who went to the household department in the afternoon to repay the money, also arrived.

"It's a coincidence, this time I invited the two uncles of the Shi family to come, and it is also related to his Yao brothers."

I will talk about the general situation in a concise and concise manner. Jia Lian pointed at Zhen Qiyao.

"So he went to the household department at the end of the day, I didn't go to the court today, I don't know what the two uncles know?"

Returning the treasury is basically highly sensitive, and it stands to reason that Zhen Qiyao, as the first person to eat crabs, should be the easiest to be noticed.

But now I don't know what the situation is, as if the court doesn't know about it, except for the people in the household department who were taken aback by Zhen Qiyao, no one reacted in any way.

Others did not react, and the two of them stayed in the yamen for a day, of course, it was even more unclear.

So when they heard this, the two of them were taken aback, then glanced at each other, and then looked at Zhen Qiyao several times, before finally hesitating to speak.

"You, what did you say from the other side?"

A little hesitant, Bao Linghou looked at Zhen Qiyao with mixed feelings.

As I said before, it is okay to borrow money from the treasury, but if it is repaid, it is necessary to weigh it carefully.

After all, the entire Great Xuan Dynasty, as long as it has been immersed in officialdom for many years, basically has accounts on it.

Therefore, the book of the household department is no exception.
