Chapter 408: Difficult Birth
Jia Baoyu is a person who doesn't care about everything, and he cares about things between his sisters and sisters, but Jia Lian is different from him.
As a niece and son-in-law, he went to the Wang family early to help, and the guests of the Wang family also passed through.
Jia Lian was originally in charge of the foreign affairs of Jiafu, and he was familiar with the situation of various families in Beijing, and he sighed at Wang Xifeng after he went back.
Wang Xifeng is a married girl, but she is worried about the situation of her mother's family, and she can't go home to see more, let alone stay there forever. It's not as convenient as Jia Lian.
She glanced at Jia Lian angrily, "What a good sigh!" Didn't you go to my uncle's house to help? Why did you come back so early? ”
"What's there to help," Jia Lian slumped on the chair and motioned for Ping'er to help him rub his shoulders, "There are all those who can't get on the table, and a few of them actually sent a steward over, I think after a while, their family won't even go to the door of the Wang family." Your uncle has only been gone for a long time, and the tea is cold. ”
Wang Xifeng scolded angrily: "Dogs look at people with low eyes! Our Wang family is not without one! Although my brothers are not successful, there are still our royal daughters! Which of our sisters did not marry into a high-ranking family, and with a little help, it was enough for the Wang family to stand up again. ”
Jia Lian annoyed her the most about how powerful the Wang family is, even if this is true, there is no need to keep saying it.
"I said don't blame anyone else, your two cousins really don't know what to say. The funeral was still going on in front of them, but they avoided people and started to have fun in the back. Do you expect such people to be promising? People probably see it. ”
Wang Xifeng snorted coldly, her two elder brothers are not things, Jia Lian married her filial piety, who is better than whom.
Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng said a few words with discord, and then felt that they had nothing to say, so they went away.
Jiang Yan and their subordinates naturally don't know the twists and turns in it, she is quite sorry for the prince, the cabinet scholar, I don't know how much effort he took to get it, who knows that if he doesn't do it for a day, the person will be gone, it's really Wei Hehe, Jue Lu Gordon, miserable, Huangquan Road is near! I don't know which one is cheaper for such a big fat meat.
However, she felt that although the prince died, the emperor had to make him a cabinet scholar before, how could he be Jane in the emperor's heart, and the funeral should also be beautiful.
Who knew the news I heard from those little guys, the emperor rewarded the prince with the title of cabinet, scolded Wen Qingong, ordered his family to help him return home, and took care of it by local officials along the way, that's all.
It sounds good, but it's not affordable at all, I think Jia Jing is gone, and the emperor still asked hundreds of officials to mourn it, although it was said that it was stained with the light of Yuanchun, but he was so beautiful and buried as an idler, and the funeral of such an important minister as Wang Ziteng was so simple?
Emperors are like this, and it is no wonder that others are perfunctory about his funeral.
Jiang Yan wondered if Wang Ziteng had offended the emperor, which was too faceless.
She got too little information, it was just random speculation, and Jia pardon and Jia Zheng would be much clearer.
Although they are only minor officials in the imperial court, they still have some connections, and some things have been heard from other people.
The dispute over the cabinet scholars came to an end, and although Wang Ziteng was not defeated, he was more unlucky than defeated, and the direct person was gone.
Taking his place was Lord Liu, who had fought with him before, this previous chess was a bad move, but he didn't expect the peak to turn around, and this cabinet scholar finally fell into his hands.
Scholar Liu laughed at Wang Ziteng's short-lived ghost in his heart, and the two of them stumbled each other a lot. This is not a person who swallows his anger, he has no scruples when everyone is dead, it is impossible for Wang Ziteng to crawl out of the ground to retaliate against him, and Scholar Liu directly began to turn over the black material.
Wang Ziteng can help Xue Pan escape the death lawsuit, he is not a good man and a woman, how can he not have a handle.
The prince Teng's bones are not cold, a royal history is played, and he was corrupt and perverted the law when he was appointed to inspect the border of the nine provinces, and left a lot of deficits, the evidence is conclusive, please ask the emperor to investigate thoroughly.
There is another debate in the court about this matter, and there is no explanation yet, after all, it is not easy to deal with the death of a person, but the emperor's attitude is also a lot colder.
Because the emperor loves extravagance, he built a lot of palace courtyards, and when the emperor succeeded to the throne, there was a lot of deficit in the treasury, because he hated official corruption the most, if it wasn't for the fact that Wang Ziteng had died, the emperor didn't want to deal with a dead man, and this matter could not have passed so simply.
Now that the emperor's attitude is unclear, the people with a keen sense of smell have taken the initiative to distance themselves from the Wang family.
Jia Zheng and Jia Yu are not qualified to go to the court, and they only know about this matter after hearing from others.
If Wang Ziteng is still alive, even if he is really corrupt, he can hide this matter from the world, but if the others are gone, it is not a matter of checking whether there is such a thing.
They are too far away from Wang Ziteng's official position, and they usually can't talk about going together, and they don't know anything about Wang Ziteng, but just looking at the luxury of the palace at ordinary times, it is not impossible to say that he is corrupt. It's good that no one cares about it, but if you really want to check, it's the evidence that is clear.
Everyone is mixed up in the officialdom, and it is not too easy to fabricate charges. Especially a dead man and a cabinet scholar, everyone knows which side to choose.
They can only hope that the emperor will remember the old feelings of the past and let the Wang family go. As for spending more energy to keep Wang Ziteng's reputation, then there is no need, everyone is dead, and a few juniors of the Wang family will not be able to look at it, and the reputation or anything will not matter.
Under the watchful eye of these people, soon the emperor's will came down, and the shortfall was found to be true, because the member was deceased, and his brother and his son made up for it.
The emperor still looked at Wang Ziteng's hard work in the past, and did not come to confiscate the family property, nor did he ask for the guilt, and even Wang Ziteng's posthumous seal was not canceled, but just let the Wang family make up for the shortfall, which can be regarded as mercy.
With the indication of Scholar Liu, the amount of the deficit is naturally extremely huge, Rao is the Wang family's great business, pay off the arrears, and the family's living standard has also dropped by a few levels, fortunately, the house is still there, and the family is safe, which is much better than the Shi family.
But now that the Wang family has no officials and no titles, and they don't even have much silver, how can the Wang family, who has always been arrogant, stand it, and they have no choice but to go to their relatives.
Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng are often looked for there, but they can't help it, they have to be things themselves, where is the extra silver.
