Chapter 126: Revenge
Hao Chunping, the shopkeeper of Yibao Building, was waiting for Lin Jia in the outer study, and when he saw Lin Jia coming in, he hurriedly bowed his hand: "I've seen my lord!"
Lin Jia smiled slightly, and asked Hao Chunping to sit down on the Huanghuali wooden circle chair on the right hand, and then told him about Yu Yu's kidnapping.
Hao Chunping sat upright on the circle chair, listened intently, and after Lin Jia finished speaking, he got up and said, "My lord, my subordinates need to borrow someone from you!"
Lin Jia was in a good mood when she returned home because of Yuyu, and said with a smile: "Who do you want?"
Hao Chunping said respectfully: "Ah Lan beside the adult has tracked down these thugs, and his subordinates ask the adult to let Ah Lan assist!"
This is not a big deal, Lin Jia naturally agreed.
Sending Hao Chunping away, Lin Jia was about to go to the military camp outside the city, and was about to go out, when Ah Qing went back and forth: "My lord, the defense envoy of Gyeonggi, Han Zhipeng, and Lord Han ask to see him!"
When Lin Jia heard this, he thought for a moment and said, "Please come in, Lord Han!"
The Gyeonggi defense envoy is his immediate boss, and Lin Jia naturally has to be perfunctory.
Han Zhipeng followed the little servant of the Lin Mansion to the front of the outer study, and saw Lin Jia standing under the corridor to greet him at a glance.
He walked a few steps quickly and greeted him with a spring breeze on his face, and arched his hand: "Lord Lin!"
Lin Jia smiled and greeted Han Zhipeng, and led Han Zhipeng into the outer study.
After the guests and hosts sat down, Han Zhipeng chatted with Lin Jia very sincerely.
Lin Jia chatted with Han Zhipeng while observing Han Zhipeng with a smile.
Han Zhipeng is of medium stature, thin and thin, and at first glance he is a shrewd and capable person.
At the same time that Lin Jia looked at Han Zhipeng, Han Zhipeng was also looking at Lin Jia.
The first time he met Lin Jia was at this year's New Year's Day court meeting, when Emperor Yongtai introduced Lin Jia and Lin Lun to important ministers in the court.
All the ministers are smart people, so they naturally know Emperor Yongtai's thoughts - among the two nephews, Emperor Yongtai is the eldest son of King Xingping Lin Jia.
Lin Jia was born with phoenix eyes and red lips, handsome and tall, very similar to Emperor Yongtai when he was young, and his personality is also very stable, except for his slightly weaker body, he is indeed the best candidate for the heir to the throne.
It's a pity that Han Zhipeng is a member of the queen's faction, and the heir to the throne supported by the queen's mother is Lin Lun, the concubine of the king of Ding'an County, and Han Qing, the head of the internal affairs office of the queen's favorite minister, is Lin Lun's maternal uncle!
Han Zhipeng had no choice but to support Lin Lun!
After chatting for a while, Han Zhipeng said goodbye and left.
After sending Han Zhipeng back, Lin Jia took out an envelope from the bookcase drawer, took out a few pieces of paper from it and unfolded it.
At the beginning of the first page, there is such a line written - "Han Zhipeng, the defense envoy of Gyeonggi, a native of Linde, Suzhou, and a protégé of the Zhu family in the northwest."
Lin Jia smiled coldly and put the letter back in the drawer.
At this moment, Ah Qing reported outside: "My lord, Lord Han has arrived!"
When Lin Jia heard this, her phoenix eyes flashed, and she immediately said, "I'll go out to greet me!"
Han Li, the seventy-six-year-old prince and secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was sent by Emperor Yongtai to be his teacher, and he has been patiently teaching him, and Lin Jia respects his teacher very much.
As soon as Lin Jia left, Yu Yu called Han Lin in and asked in a low voice, "You weren't injured yesterday, were you?"
Han Lin's nose was sore, and his eyes immediately moistened.
She looked at Yu Yu with tears in her eyes: "Auntie, the slave is fine." It's the slave who didn't protect her aunt well......"
Seeing that she was so guilty, Yu Yu hurriedly smiled and comforted her: "You're okay, the adults will go and rescue me soon, and I'm not injured!"
When Han Lin heard this, he smiled with tears in his eyes.
Yu Yu took a sip of the teacup and said with a smile: "It's just that we can't go out easily in the future!"
Han Lin palpitated and said: "Auntie, let's go out with the adults in the future, I really didn't expect the capital to be so terrible!"
Yu Yu laughed.
In the morning, when there was nothing to do, Yu Yu went to the inner study to read.
When she read about the change of the law during the Wenxi period of the previous dynasty, she was a little confused about the reason for the failure of the change, so she kept it in her heart and prepared to wait for Lin Jia to come back and ask Lin Jia.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Yu Yu was taking notes, and when she heard Jin'er calling "Auntie" outside, she didn't raise her head and said, "I'm in the inner study, come in!"
Jin'er walked in with a smile and said, "Auntie, Brother Ah Cheng came over just now and said that the adults will listen to Songyuan for lunch!"
Yu Yu finished writing the last stroke, and raised his eyes to look at Jin'er: "The beef soup and crispy yellow dui made with taro sent by the small kitchen last time are very good for adults, in addition to today's regular dishes, add a bowl of beef soup and a plate of taro to the adults!"
Jin'er agreed with a smile and went to the small kitchen to find her mother to pass the word.
At noon, Lin Jia really came back.
After washing his hands, he asked Yu Yu: "Have you smeared the wound?"
Yu Yu glanced at him, remembered the matter of applying the medicine last night, her pretty face was slightly red, and she lowered her head and said, "I asked Hanlin to help me apply the medicine!"
Lin Jia saw Yu Yu's eyes watery when she saw the waves in her eyes, and she couldn't help but move in her heart, "Oh", she didn't say anything else, but she actually regretted it in her heart.
After lunch, Lin Jia rinsed her mouth with tea and went to the inner study.
Yu Yu hurriedly followed, served Lin Jia to sit down in front of the bookcase, and asked Lin Jia while helping Lin Jia massage her shoulders: "Ajia, I have a problem with my reading today!"
Lin Jia's slender fingers tapped on the bookcase and said, "Say it!"
Yu Yu was happy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "The changes in the Wenxi period of the previous dynasty can obviously eliminate all kinds of shortcomings in the imperial court, why are those ministers opposed?"
Lin Jia's expression became serious, and he said slowly: "Because those ministers occupy a lot of land, the law change has shaken their interests."
Yu Yu thought for a moment and said, "That's ...... How can we get them to support the change? ”
Lin Jiafeng looked at the plain porcelain beauty on the yellow rosewood table in front of her, and her voice was clear: "In order to get these vested interests to support the change, at least these points are needed: first, the changer has control over the government; the second is to use the imperial examination system to break the monopoly position of the family, so that the elite among the common people can enter the decision-making level; The third is ......"
Yu Yu moved a brocade stool, sat down next to the bookcase, and listened to Lin Jia with both hands.
She felt that Lin Jia was too smart and knew everything.
Lin Jia saw Yu Gardenia's big eyes shining at him, his eyes were full of admiration, and his heart was full of joy, so he said, "Yu Gardenia, do you like to study these very much?"
Yu Yu nodded again and again: "Hmm!"
Lin Jia lowered her eyes and said, "If you are happy to serve me, Mr. Han will come to teach me a lesson in the future, and I will allow you to pretend to be a little maid to observe."
When Yu Yu heard this, she almost jumped up with joy.
She immediately got up and leaned over to Lin Jia's cheek, kissed it hard, and made a "chirp" sound.
Lin Jiajun's face was flushed, he reached out and touched his left cheek, glanced at Yu Yu, and said in a dumb voice: "There is also the right side!"
Yu Yu loves to read the most, as long as Lin Jiaken lets her sit in on the world-famous Han Li's lectures, she can do anything.
Without hesitation, she cupped Lin Jia's face with both hands and leaned over.
Lin Jia thought that Yu Yu was going to kiss her mouth, but suddenly her phoenix eyes were wet, and she couldn't help but greet her.
Yu Yu laughed secretly in her heart, and suddenly leaned into Lin Jia's right cheek and "chirped" it, letting go of Lin Jia.
Lin Jia: "......"
Although he felt a little regretful in his heart, he still agreed to Yu Yu's request and said, "Mr. Han will come over tomorrow, you can change your clothes and accompany me!"
Yu Yu agreed, with a flattering face: "My lord, I'll order you your favorite Muxi pine nut nut nut tea!"
Seeing Yu Yu hurriedly lift the curtain on the door of the inner study and go out, Lin Jia couldn't help but smile.
Liang Yingyu was doing needlework with her two younger sisters in her mother's room, when the maid Jiaorui came in and said, "Big girl, Mother Wang wants to see you!"
Hearing this, Liang Yingyu's face was a little pale, and while continuing to prick the needle, she said, "I'm busy, let Mother Wang go home first!"
Wang's mother's son Wang Rui helped her kidnap Yu Yu yesterday, and originally said that there would be news in the evening, but who knew that it had been a day and a night, not only did there not have a trace of news in Lin Jia's mansion, but Wang Rui also had no news.
Liang Yingyu knew that Wang's mother was here to ask for Wang Rui's news, and she was very troubled, so she could only stabilize Wang's mother for the time being.
Mother Wang, who was waiting under the corridor, listened to Jiaorui's return, and her heart was always hanging there, so she whispered: "Jiaorui, you go and talk to the girl again, Wang Rui has no news, I can't eat or drink, and my heart has been hanging——"
Jiao Rui looked around, and saw that the maids serving the lady were quite far away, so she said, "My mother, you know the girl's temper, why do you want to touch her moldy head?" Wait a few more days! ”
Wang's mother was helpless, so she had to sigh and leave.
A few days later, as soon as Lin Jia saw off his teacher Han Li, Hao Chunping from Yibaolou came over with two cronies.
Hao Chunping saluted Lin Jia first, and then said, "My lord, my subordinates have found out the results."
When Lin Jia heard this, he immediately straightened his back and looked at Hao Chunping: "What the hell is going on?"
Hao Chunping thought for a while, organized the language, and then began to report: "My lord, my subordinates led people to search the Wild Boar Ridge first, found the wreckage of the carriage, and also found two corpses. The subordinates began to investigate these two corpses and found that one of them was named Wang Rui, the son of Liang Yingyu, the eldest girl in the mansion of Liang Yongming, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and the other was Liu En, the head of the Beijing Beggars' Guild, who was Wang Rui's friend! ”
When Lin Jia heard this, she already understood in her heart, and looked at Hao Chunping with deep eyes, waiting for Hao Chunping's next words.
Hao Chunping was a little nervous by Lin Jia, relieved himself, and continued: "The subordinates continued to investigate, and found Liu En's godson Li Gouzi, a little beggar, and learned that Wang Rui was ordered by Liang Yingyu, the eldest girl of the Liang Mansion, to take two hundred taels of silver to find Liu En, and he must destroy Aunt Yu."
After that, he raised his eyes to look at Lin Jia, waiting for Lin Jia's instructions.
Lin Jia thought for a long time, and then said: "With the other way, give back to the other body, what Liang Yingyu does, let's do it on her again." But it can't be now, two months later, when she loses her vigilance. ”
Hao Chunping replied "yes".
Lin Jia said again: "When kidnapping Liang Yingyu, we must be cautious and not show the slightest clue, but about Liang Yingyu's kidnapping, we have to make a big fanfare, so that everyone in the capital knows that Liang Da girl has been kidnapped!"
Hao Chunping replied "yes" and went to implement it.
Lin Jia slowly leaned back on the back of the treasure chair behind her, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
Yu Yu is his person, but Liang Yingyu tried to destroy Yu Yu, then he will destroy Liang Yingyu!
After another two days, Wang Rui still had no news at all.
Liang Yingyu called the little servant Hu Gui to come in, and instructed: "You go to Yanqing Fang Lin Mansion to inquire outside, see if the Aunt Yu of Lin Mansion is in the mansion!"
Hu Gui agreed, took the one or two silver given by Liang Yingyu and retreated.
It wasn't until the evening of the second day that Hu Gui came back to report: "Big girl, this afternoon, Lord Lin rode out of the city to buy another business, there was a carriage in the team, and the slave followed him all the way to the outside of the city.
Liang Yingyu's eyebrows furrowed when she heard this: "Did Lord Lin buy Cuihu Village in the end?"
She knew Liang Renzhi's daughter Liang Yumei, who once went to Cuihu Village to participate in the Lotus Flower Festival, and knew that Cuihu Village was adjacent to the canal and the scenery was extremely beautiful, but she didn't expect the Liang family to fall to the point of selling Cuihu Village.
Hu Gui hurriedly said: "Miss Qiyu, the slave has been guarding until the end, I heard that the real estate agent said that he had bought it, and Lord Lin gave it directly to Aunt Yu, and he has already gone to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to register for the record!"
Liang Yingyu was extremely angry in her heart, biting her lip and sitting there ruthlessly, eager to dismantle the jade gardenia.
But she knew that she had just touched Yu Yu, and Lin Jia was afraid that she was very vigilant, so she tried her best to hold herself back, preparing to do it again after a while.
As soon as Hu Gui left, Wang's mother came again and asked Liang Yingyu with tears: "Girl, what's wrong with Wang Rui?"
Liang Yingyu was almost annoyed, but with a smile on her face, she comforted Wang's mother and sent Wang's mother away.
As soon as Wang's mother left, Liang Yingyu called the housekeeper Liang Gui over and instructed: "Mother Wang is getting more and more confused, I won't keep her, you go and call the sister-in-law of Qin, who is a human tooth, to come over and let her sell Mother Wang to ...... Go to Liaozhou, I'll look for her ten taels of silver! ”
Liang Gui was surprised in his heart, replied "yes", and went to find someone to talk to Sister-in-law Qin.
That night, Wang's mother was gagged and tied up with ropes, and sent out overnight, and was sent to the boat to Liaozhou early the next morning, and went to Liaozhou along the waterway.
Without Wang's mother's verbosity, Liang Yingyu finally felt much more comfortable.
In the blink of an eye, it's March.
On this day, Liang Yingyu had nothing to do, so she took Jiao Rui and Xiuzhu to Yanqingfang by carriage to go shopping.
