Chapter 0340 Take a concubine when you should take a concubine
Although Baoyu and the others didn't go, Jia Lian still had to go back. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info then took Shen Bingyi and the girls bought by Shen Bingyi, as well as Gu Panpan and the girls she bought, and set off for Bukui.
Accompanied by some homeless people recruited by Zhao Bancheng and Huang Xide, there were more than 200 people together, and they drove towards Bu Kui in a majestic manner.
At this time, the city wall project of Bukui had been under construction, and there was a shortage of labor. The purpose of recruiting these rogues is to alleviate the urgent need.
Otherwise, it will not be on the road in this deep winter season.
The emperor didn't let Jia Min talk about marriage before he was twenty years old, and Jia Fuli already knew about it. After being puzzled by this for a while, I reluctantly accepted it.
However, the succession is a major event after all, and Jia's mother also wants to see her great-grandson as soon as possible, so she found Mrs. Wang and Jia Zheng to study the matter of asking Jia Min to take a concubine first.
When the two saw Jia Mu say this, they naturally had no opinion. As for the relationship between Jia Min and Baochai, because of the emperor's will, it is natural that they cannot get married now.
However, since the two families have a marriage contract, they still have to admit it, so they have to wait a few years before marrying.
The audit has been decided, so he asked Jia Lian to go back and tell Jia Min that he should take a concubine.
Just one day before Jia Lian's departure, Xue Zhen and Xue Baoqin, brother and sister, arrived in Jiafu, and Aunt Xue immediately began to arrange the marriage of Baoqin and Mei Hanlin's family.
Wei Ruolan stayed secretly and continued to investigate the Xinyou Kechang case.
Although no obvious breakthrough has been made in the Kechang case, a large amount of original materials have been obtained, some evidence has been obtained, and the direction of the investigation has been basically determined.
It's just that because of the long period of time, it is quite difficult to re-investigate. Fortunately, there is still time, and it is not too urgent.
However, Jia Lian's harvest from this trip is still there.
The problem of the Cervantes couple was solved.
Although the Bukui Yamen, as the supervisory organ of the displaced people, does not have the right to investigate and try unjust cases among the displaced people, it has the right to make suggestions for re-investigation of unjust cases. Appeals against unjust cases of displaced people should also be transferred.
The so-called transfer means that the appeal is transferred to the original adjudication organ.
Therefore, Jia Min brought up the case of the Cervantes couple as an unjust case and handed it over to Jiang Shilang to bring back.
Jiang Shilang was really hardworking, and transferred the file of the case of the Sevante couple from the original judgment organ, and after discovering many problems, he initiated the trial procedure of the three legal divisions of the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple.
Even if it is the Three Law Division, it is not easy to overturn the following verdict, because once it is judged that this is an unjust case, it will involve the accountability of the original case-handling personnel, and many people will lose their hats because of this.
Therefore, in order to prove that they did not make a mistake at the beginning, the original case-handling personnel must try their best to obstruct the re-investigation and cover up their mistakes.
This will not only offend a large group of people, but will also make the process of re-investigation protracted and indefinite. Many cases that have been re-investigated have been re-investigated in such delays, and in the end, they have come to an end.
Therefore, Jiang Shilang adopted a compromise method, not completely overturning the case, but changing the case on the grounds that the sentence was too heavy. The period of exile for Mr. and Mrs. Cervante was changed to four and a half years.
Previously, they had been in exile for more than four years, and by the end of this year, it would be four and a half years. Therefore, before the Chinese New Year this year, even if the exile period expires, the Cervantes can regain their freedom.
As for the years when they were wronged before, they had no choice but to accept their fate.
This is also to meet Jia Min, if they are replaced by others, no one will care about them. It is also because Jiang Shilang impeached Jia Min before and felt that he owed Jia Min a favor, so he worked so hard, otherwise, even if Jia Min wanted to avenge them, he would be powerless.
Baoyu and the others didn't go to Bukui for the time being, which made Jia Lian breathe a sigh of relief for the time being.
For these goods, Jia Lian is also very helpless now. Although he was not at home for nearly a year, from Wang Xifeng's mouth, he still learned what several people had done.
Especially this time for the plum blossom to fight for the wind and jealousy, it has become a joke of the major families in the imperial capital.
How capable Lamei is, Jia Lian still knows it. Although she is not Jia Min's opponent, it is more than enough to play with Baoyu and a few people.
Because of the "Flower of Wendula", Lamei has now become a celebrity in the imperial capital, in addition to Baoyu and others, there are also many contacts with the children of other families.
She just used her fame and the psychology of those people who wanted to take advantage of them to play with them in the palm of her hand.
In this regard, Jia Lian also talked to Baoyu once, but they just perfunctory him. Jia Lian knew that it was useless to say it, so he didn't bother to say it again.
However, he also had a hint of luck, glad that he had persevered in the training of Yeduju.
If he had given up like Baoyu and the others, wouldn't he be like them now? It's scary to think about.
Thinking about Yuan Chun and Jia Min sisters and brothers again, I feel that they are one in the sky and one in the ground with Baoyu.
In the past, Jia Lian often mixed with Baoyu and them, but when he came back this time, he felt a little out of place with them.
In the end, it is still in Bukui that I can find that sense of belonging.
Bukui, South City Gate.
Although it is bearable, the winter in Bukui is still much colder than that of the imperial capital.
Even though it was sunny, there was snow in the air.
This kind of snow hail is generally not visible. However, if you look at the sun, you will find some small particles that shine brightly, and this is the snow graupel.
Today's South City Gate has some of the appearance of a city gate. The walls on both sides, which had already been partially built, began to extend on both sides.
Although the construction of the castle wall began in the fall, due to the huge amount of work and the shortage of labor, the progress was not fast.
On both sides of the city gate, it only extended more than a mile.
Of course, this is relative to the situation when there is an abundance of labor. If you look at the current number of workers, this progress is actually very fast.
Despite the cold weather, the construction of the walls continued.
The permafrost here is two or three meters deep, and in some places there is a permafrost underground, and even in the hottest summer, the soil does not melt.
Therefore, the current project is mainly the accumulation of earthworks. It has only piled up the soil, and has not yet built a wall and tamped it. This step needs to be carried out after the beginning of spring, when the weather is warmer.
The soil taken now was taken from the ground after the permafrost had been broken. At night, the soil layer will freeze again, but it is only one layer, and after the layer is broken the next day, you can continue to take soil.
The place where the soil was taken will be the course of the moat after it has been renovated in the future. The introduction of the Songhua River is the moat.
Now, Jia Min, Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun, Feng Zijing, Chen Yeqing, Zhao Dahai, and Yang Lin are standing at the gate of the South City Gate.
Next to him are Jia Min's personal soldiers, as well as Baochai and Ying'er.
This time I came to the South City Gate for two things.
The first is to inspect the city wall project by the way, and the second is to welcome the prince Teng of the nine provinces.
Because Wang Ziteng is Baochai's uncle, she also came.
Jia Min felt a little inexplicable about Wang Ziteng's sudden arrival here.
It's not because Wang Ziteng is his relative, but because such a big man suddenly arrives in a small place like Bukui, which always makes people feel a little abnormal.
If it is said that the last time Jiang Shilang came to Bukui, it was mainly to inspect the affairs of the rogues, then, what did Wang Ziteng, as a military boss, do here?
Although the battle of Southern Vendura had been won before, the battle was over, the tribute and silver were handed over, and the establishment of the prefecture was also started. The first batch of newly appointed officials will also arrive in Bukui soon.
The establishment of prefectures and counties is mainly a matter of the Ministry of Officials and Households, and it has nothing to do with the military, let alone someone of Wang Ziteng's level to handle it personally.
Therefore, the prince must have a special purpose in coming to Bukui.
Jia Min actually doesn't like the imperial court always coming, and last time Jiang Shilang hastily impeached him, and finally had to find a way to deal with the aftermath. It made Jia Min feel ridiculous.
These people came, one by one, full of shelves, as if they themselves were the emperor. If they were really asked to do anything practical to Bu Kui, they didn't dare to expect it.
The key question is not here. The main thing is the conflict between Jia Min and their concepts.
Whether or not they can understand some of the things they do is a big problem. Even if you put a lot of effort to explain and communicate with them, you may not be able to achieve good results.
As for how they will tell the emperor when they go back, Jia Min is even more out of the question.
If you meet a big man from a public heart, it's okay to say. Even if the concept is different, even if he opposes Jia Min's approach, Jia Min is not afraid.
As long as they can tell the truth, that's it. If the court doesn't understand, he can explain it. If you can't understand the explanation for a while, you can also verify it through practice and time.
I am afraid that those who are motivated by personal prejudice and ulterior motives will either distort the facts, or speculate and fabricate them out of thin air after they go back.
The mountains and rivers here are far away, and if you can't explain it in person, it is likely that there will be a lot of trouble.
Such cases are not uncommon, and many fair, honest and talented magistrates have suffered setbacks in their careers because of this situation. In serious cases, he even lost his official position and left his post.
Although Wang Ziteng is Jia Min's uncle, Jia Min himself knows that the gold content of this uncle is actually not high.
Baoyu and Baochai are Wang Ziteng's nieces and nieces, and they are related by blood. Jia Min and Wang Ziteng have no blood relationship.
Moreover, when Jia Min first arrived in Jiafu, the relationship with Mrs. Wang was very tense. Mrs. Wang even sent Zhou Rui to poison Jia Min on his way to Jiafu, wanting to erase him. Although there is a truce with Mrs. Wang now, the relationship with Baoyu is not good.
Therefore, what is Wang Ziteng's impression of himself, Jia Min really doesn't report any optimism.
Everyone else thinks that the prince is free, which is a great thing for Jia Min, but Jia Min doesn't think so.
However, Jia Min is not worried.
Such a thing, as long as you are selfless in your heart, is actually very simple to deal with.
In personal relationships, treat them with the courtesy of juniors. In business, it's business.
The so-called selflessness in the bottom of the heart and the wide world are this truth.
