Zhen Yingjia showed favor to Lu Renbing, and returned the favor, and sent over the price of antiques, calligraphy and paintings. Lu Renbing smiled and accepted.

Lu Renbing's idea was to take advantage of the different positions between Zhen Yingjia and the other rooms of the Zhen family to make profits. Zhen Yingjia just wants to save his life, and he doesn't want to die with the other houses. He is old, and there is only one baby bump under his knees, Zhen Baoyu. What is there for him to fight about?

Once the son of heaven and a courtier, he is the confidant of the emperor, no matter which prince comes to power, he will not really be reused, and it is necessary to liquidate him. He didn't want to die, but he couldn't help himself.

Zhen Yingjia is clear about the inside story of Jia Yucun's appointment as the prefect of Jiangling. has monitored the officials and people in Jiangnan for decades, and there is almost nothing to hide from him about the background of officials on the ground in Jiangnan, especially the officials in Jinling Mansion under his nose.

Zhen Yingjia is old, the eldest son, the second son died early, and there is only one old son, Zhen Baoyu, who has no ambition for a long time, and just wants to get out of the way.

However, he couldn't help himself in the bureau, and he served the emperor wholeheartedly before, and there was no intersection among the princes except for the crown prince and the six princes. The crown prince fell, the emperor abdicated, the fourth prince ascended, and Zhen Yingjia was already on the cliff. It is impossible for the new emperor to accept his surrender. Just wait for the right opportunity, and it is almost inevitable to take the Zhen family.

The opportunity that Lu Renbing is waiting for is also here, Zhen Yingjia has the intention to retire, but the other ends of the Zhen family are not big enough. What Lu Renbing has to do is to provide ammunition to Zhen Yingjia, so that Zhen Yingjia can fight more fiercely with the rest of the houses. As for what the final result of the fight will be, Lu Renbing doesn't care.

It is useless to take the case files accumulated in the government and hand them to Zhen Yingjia, you have to start from other aspects. Zhen Yingjia urgently needed silver to fill the deficit of the household, and the other families were not rich.

The only way to do this is to give them a way to make money.

After months of preparation, Lu Renbing also recruited some manpower. Lu Renbing, let them be there often, hang around the fence tiles, inquire about the news, and spread some rumors. For example, the big housekeeper of the third room of the Zhen family, a few days ago, he sold a golden Buddha, the second housekeeper of the second room of the Zhen family, and added a two-room concubine. Either it is the son born to the concubine of Xinna, the master of the fifth room of the Zhen family, who is exactly the same as the big steward, and the clothes and gouache of the two young ladies in the third room are all bribed by the big housekeeper to get a star and a half. Some people saw that the big housekeeper touched the eldest lady's buttocks and laughed, and the pomp and circumstance of the housekeepers in each room was bigger than the master's house, and the various methods of the housekeeper to treat the master's family as a fool, anyway, the main thing was to spread all kinds of romantic affairs between the housekeeper and the master's family, and jokes and jokes. True and false, people can't figure it out.

Especially on the occasions where these main families often come and go, it is the focus of dissemination. This kind of wealthy story can spread the most quickly. In less than a month, there was a lot of uproar. Naturally, these words also reached the ears of the people concerned. Inside the Zhen family's rooms, there are also many discussions.

The relationship between the master and the housekeeper and the steward's servant began to become delicate.

This kind of discussion reached its climax after the lord of the fifth room of the Zhen family killed the concubine and the chief steward of Xinna in a fit of anger. Concubines are also slaves. The law protects the lord when he kills a wrongful slave or a maidservant, especially if it involves adultery. The matter is reported to the government. Lu Renbing followed the law and fined Zhen Fuyin for two things.

And in private, good words comforted the head of the Zhen family's five rooms.

The matter of the dead is secondary. In this matter, the point that arouses everyone's interest is also. The fifth master of the Zhen family led people to raid the house of the big steward, and as a result, he was full. More than 300,000 taels of gold and silver alone were made, and there were still two or three hundred acres of land.

This made all the people involved red-eyed, especially the stewards who were rumored to be known all over the city, but they were unlucky. These stewards are all born in the family, and the qualifications that can be managed are older than those of the family members in each house.

On weekdays, the family members in each room have to respect them for the elderly, and they don't hold their breath in their hearts. Now rumors are spreading, coupled with the harvest of the fifth room, which makes all the owners of the house red-eyed. In order to prevent long nights and dreams, they lit up people and began to raid their homes.

In the name of purging the family style, the minions of the Zhen family poured blood mold. Those subordinates who were waiting for the upper position reported to the master's family one after another, which made this purge activity expand rapidly, and the harvest of the heads of each family became more and more amazing. It is estimated that the Zhen family's houses have recovered a total of 7 million taels of gold and silver, more than 30,000 hectares of land, and other real estate, antiques, maidservants, etc., so that each house can have a big feast.

The situation of making ends meet for several years has been greatly alleviated.

Lu Renbing also eats a lot of money, and these copied house slaves are all going to be sent to the official. Because Lu Renbing had already passed on the crimes committed by these people to various families, and also said that he would not take any property, and as long as he committed a crime, he was also responsible for torturing some hidden property for these masters.

In terms of the professionalism of the way of torture, it really depends on their yamen. The families have already eaten a lot of money, and they are too lazy to deal with these criminal slaves, so they simply leave them all to the government to deal with them.

Of course, these house slaves still have oil and water to squeeze, because they themselves are all documented. Lu Renbing handed them over to their respective divisions to understand the backlog of cases, and officials at all levels were overjoyed, these are all evaluations and silver. These people in charge also grasped some of the Zhen family's crimes, and after they confessed, they signed and filed them, and handed over the copies to the principals of each house.

Although these circumstances will not shake the Zhen family, it is indispensable for these things to be mastered by them. So these principals have to say that they are not. The chapter still has to be played, but the sin is understated, it is nothing more than the Zhen family's sense of the emperor's grace, the rectification of the family style, the evil things are all those sinful slaves, and they have been handed over to the government for disposal! “

Anyway, these families will not fall because of these things, no one will really pursue it, and everyone is happy.

Lu Renbing continued to fan the flames, and this trend expanded rapidly. Those families in Beijing also quickly started infighting. Lu Renbing sent people to report these crimes left in the house head of Jinling to those sects in Beijing. Emphasizing the crimes of selling sacrificial fields, bullying orphans and widows in the clan, and embezzling clan property, so as to give the Jingzhong clan a sufficient reason to divide the clan. It doesn't matter if they are divided or not, they just have to fight anyway.

Anyway, as long as they are in chaos, Lu Renbing will have a harvest, and the phenomenon of unscrupulous slaves in Jinling City will disappear. Some families are not fierce enough, and there are signs of selfishness. Lu Renbing will burst some fierce material and pour some oil on the fire. There are always stewards who want to be on top, and there are always stunned young people who don't want to be bullied. The head of the family is old, and the brothers who are waiting for the division of the family property are not old. The elders want to settle things, and the young people don't want to be bullied by thieves and slaves. The in-laws want to make peace with the mud, and the sister-in-law and daughter-in-law are unwilling to give up the great opportunity to turn over.

Don't laugh at anyone, anyway, now the wealthy families in Jinling are also chicken feathers.

The purge movement gradually expanded, and the nails of the second and third rooms were found in the big houses, and the four and five rooms were turned out of other houses. The Zhang family asked about the conspiracy of the Li family, and the Zhao family found out the black hand of the Wang family. Anyway, I don't know what's going on, and many old contradictions have emerged.

Whoever murdered someone's daughter-in-law and children for the sake of family property, and who fell into the pond back then, it turned out to be the black hand of whom.

The more noisy it became, the more it got worse, and several of them started fighting in the streets. It is not a new thing for relatives who have been friends for many years to turn their faces again. This is not Lu Renbing's handiwork, some things have begun, and how to end them is not something that the initiator can control.

Anyway, if there is trouble in the government, Lu Renbing will do things according to the rules, and no one can say anything wrong. It's not that there are no smart people who feel that the situation in Jinling is wrong and suspect Lu Renbing. But Lu Renbing is a scholar, and he has no power in Jinling, so what can he do.

Taking advantage of the time when the Jinling family was in a mess, Lu Renbing also successfully cleaned up the government officials and servants who were deeply connected with these stewards and families in the palace. Some people from relatively innocent backgrounds were promoted to the top. The control of the government has been greatly enhanced.

It took half a year for the Gangneung families to gradually quiet down, and they were exhausted. Although some property was recovered. But in the subsequent filth, it cost a lot. Many of the old and capable housekeepers have been eliminated, and the new minions always have various deficiencies.

Six or seven families were taken by the Zong family, and the main family in the capital took the opportunity to divide the sect. These families that had divided their clans, the government and the rest of the families that were being eyed by the tiger, were quickly beaten to pieces.
