It was already dark, lanterns had already been lit everywhere, and Jia's mother's room was also brightly lit, Jia Yu rarely stayed to accompany Jia's mother to eat.

Jia Yu took a sip of tea and looked out the window at the sky, "It's not early, so my son won't bother." ”

As he spoke, he bowed and prepared to leave.

Jia Mu glared at him, "What's the matter, the old woman makes you so disliked that you don't even want to sit and say a few words?" ”

Jia Yu was not embarrassed, so he had to sit down in a daze.

There was silence.

Mother Jia couldn't help it, looked at Jia Yu with a calm face, and said: "Forget it, when people are old, they will be annoying, and I will let people pack their luggage and take Baoyu and Yingchun sisters to the old house in Jinling, so as not to hinder the eyes of your brothers here." In short, out of sight and out of mind, everyone is calm! ”

Jia Yu pondered for a moment, and then sighed helplessly, and said: "Old lady, you are not unclear about the second child's affairs, he is really not suitable for mixing in the court, if he is quiet, it will be fine, but he is still so bookish and angry, blindly pretending to be a good person, it is easy to be used, I am worried about this." ”

Jia Mu sighed silently.

At this time, the mother-in-law's voice came from outside the door, "Old lady, Second Master Lian and Second Grandma Lian are here." ”

Jia Lian changed into homely casual clothes and came to Jia's mother with Wang Xifeng.

Jia Mu immediately laughed, "Okay, okay, sit down." ”

Wang Xifeng: "Our ancestors love us, but the rules can't be messed up. ”

As he spoke, he bowed to Jia's mother in a proper manner.

Jia Mu said to Jia Yu: "You see, Feng Yatou still knows etiquette and observes etiquette. ”

Jia Yu smiled and said, "Divide people." ”

Hearing this, Jia Lian was stunned and turned his head to look at Wang Xifeng.

Wang Xifeng pursed his lips and did not speak.

Jia Mu put down the tea bowl, "How are you busy with this errand?" I didn't go home for two days. ”

The two saluted Jia Yu again, and then sat down opposite Jia Yu.

Looking at the Feng girl who was becoming more and more polite, and thinking of Mrs. Wang, who was a demon everywhere, Jia Mu sighed slightly in her heart, but there was no expression in her expression.

Jia Lian: "Back to the old lady's words, a Huguang grain ship sank at the mouth of the Yongding River, and it was salvaged today, and the household department and the military department were urging, and the grandson lived on the river embankment overnight. ”

Jia Mu nodded, and looked at Wang Xifeng again, "Lin Yatou sent me a few white ginseng, you can take them back later." ”

Wang Xifeng hurriedly smiled: "Yes." ”

Jia Lian picked up the teapot on the table and poured a bowl of tea for Wang Xifeng, and poured a bowl of tea for himself, and picked it up, "Master, you don't know, the capital has been turned over, and I didn't find those five people, it's really strange!" ”

Jia Yu glanced at him and didn't say anything.

Jia Lian slowly put down the tea bowl, "If only I could be like the second uncle." ”

Jia Yu: "Lao Tzu will kill you directly." ”

Jia Mu's face was cold, "What nonsense!" ”

Jia Lian was stunned.

Wang Xifeng hesitated for a moment, and whispered to Jia Lian about Jia Zheng's signature on the impeachment of the Zhongshun Wang.

Jia Lian understood, glanced at Jia's mother, and then turned to Jia Yu and said: "Master, when I came, Lord Zhang specially told me about it, he said, the water is deep here, let me not get involved, anyway, the third brother is out to let go of the army, why is the second uncle still so impulsive?!" ”

Jia Yu, "He really doesn't understand anything about officialdom!" ”

Jia Lian also wanted to say, but Jia Mu's knife-like gaze shot over, and Jia Lian was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head.

"Lian'er is not wrong at all!"

Jia Yu said unceremoniously: "Since Yuan Chun became the prince's side concubine, the second child has completely floated, if it weren't for Jia Yucun to stop him, it is estimated that the prince would hate him to death!" ”

Jia Mu was startled and asked urgently, "What's the matter?" ”

"The Imperial Tomb is finished!"

A wry smile swept the corners of his mouth, Jia Yu shook his head and sighed: "The second child actually invited merit at this time, if it wasn't for Jia Yucun to stop him, he would be the prince who was pushed to the forefront at this time." ”

"What?!"

Mother Jia was shocked, angry and disappointed, and suddenly, Mother Jia coughed loudly, and Wang Xifeng hurriedly stepped forward to beat her back.

After a while, Jia Mu waved her hand, turned to the mandarin duck and said, "Go...... Get me that obstacle and go! ”

After another moment, Mrs. Wang hurriedly walked over, "Old lady." ”

Jia Mu asked with a cold face, "What about your master?" ”

Mrs. Wang replied, "Go, go to Dongcheng......"

Jia's mother's face changed, she stood up reluctantly, walked a few steps, turned to Jia Lian and said loudly: "You go and stop your second uncle back, just say that I want to see him now, if he doesn't come, you let him wait to come back and cry!" ”

First Jia Lian, and then the others, they were all stunned when they heard the words.

............

Meng Yunxuan's door opened with a bang, and You Shi walked out with a dark face, and the maid Silver Butterfly was illuminating the road in front with a lantern.

"Madam, I was beaten and punished, Aunt Lin, she...."

Qin Keqing was in a hurry, and when he spoke, he was already crying and hurriedly pulled Layou's sleeve.

You Shi was suddenly angry when she said this, and said angrily: "What do you want?" ”

Qin Keqing was stunned for a moment, and slowly retracted his hand.

You Shi sighed, "Let's go." With that, he walked straight to the back porch.

There was silence in the room, and Daiyu was sitting on the couch reading a book.

Zijuan silently cleaned up her book on the side, and Daiyu raised her head, "Okay, I still need to use it tomorrow, so I don't have to bother." ”

Zijuan was stunned, sighed softly, and silently turned around to pack up the bedding.

Daiyu frowned, and was about to speak, when Song Ma walked in with a basin of hot water.

Zijuan hurriedly took it, motioned her out, wrung a towel from the basin and handed it to Daiyu.

"If you have anything to say, just say it."

Daiyu just waved her hand.

Zijuan glanced at the outside room first, and then said: "The girl shouldn't be like this, no matter what Uncle Xiao Rong says, he is the nephew of the third master, as well as Uncle Zhen and Grandma Zhen, it can't be too ugly..... Because of Uncle Xue's matter, the second room has already been spread, and Uncle Xiao Rong's matter of military law has been passed on, maybe how to arrange the girl behind the scenes, and it is not good that things can be passed on to the outside......"

Daiyu just shook her head and took the towel.

Zijuan bit her lower lip lightly and kept scrubbing the towel in the basin.

Suddenly, Mama Song's voice came from inside the courtyard, "Isn't this Mama Li?" Why did you come here so late! ”

"I've got something to do back to the girl."

"The girl hasn't slept yet, please come in."

After a while, Mama Li walked in, took out a letter from her arms and presented it with both hands, "Girl, this is sent in by Jia Fu, and people are waiting outside the second gate." ”

Daiyu took the letter and tore it up, first stunned, and then a smile flashed on her face, the letter said about Jia Zheng, originally Jiao Da was going to stop him halfway with some means, who wanted to be forced back by Jia's mother, this son was kneeling in Rongqing Hall to be trained, and Baoyu in the second room except for Baoyu, who was still recuperating from his injuries, knelt in Jia's mother's house.

Jia Mu was really angry this time.

Thinking of this, he sighed deeply and said to Mama Li: "Mama Li told Commander Jia that she knew about it, and that Master Jiao and Mr. Zhang would discuss this matter." ”

..........

Dongcheng Yang's Mansion is brightly lit, and a mourning shed has already been erected in front of the mansion, and the couplet, filial piety, and blue curtains are layered from the mourning hall in the courtyard to the long mourning shed in front of the mansion.

More than 100 monks of Daxiangguo Temple kept chanting in the mourning shed, they were invited by the prince to do things for Yang Lin, for Yang Lin's soul, the ministers who came to mourn were endless, Yang Lin's old wife and sons endured their grief and thanked the officials who came to mourn one by one.

The courtyard was full of officials with filial piety belts around their waists, most of them were officials from the Ministry of Rites, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Hanlin Academy, and the Guozijian, and they all looked solemn, because until now, there were still no high-ranking officials from the cabinet and the six ministries to come to mourn.

At this time, there was a commotion outside the door, and several officials tied their waists and filial piety were taken into the spirit shed, the first official was the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Kong Qian, and there were also Liu Fusheng, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, Chen Qiang, the right capital of the Imperial Palace, the left Yu Shi Meisheng and the left attendant of the household department, Jia Yucun, they solemnly went to the spirit to offer incense.

Yang Lin's eldest son knelt down and returned the salute, "Thank you uncles for coming to mourn my father, if there is any rudeness, please forgive me!" ”

Kong Qian sighed, "Elder Yang Ge is not only our old boss, but also a model for my generation as an official. ”

"Thank you Uncle Shi, it's just that there is no news from the Soldiers and Horses Division and Shuntian Mansion so far, so they said that they have been doing their best, and I implore a few uncles to make decisions for me!"

Kong Qian sighed deeply, and then closed his eyes sadly.

Yang Lin's eldest son said with tears on his face: "Uncle Shi, my father has been cautious and cautious all his life, never arguing with others, not talking about grudges, not even having a red face, but being humiliated and forced to death!" My father has worked hard all his life, not to mention the credit, hard work should always be rewarded, but the court doesn't even have a saying, is there still a royal law?! ”

Kong Qian shook his head and said, "I just came from the Terracotta Division, and there is no news yet, please be patient and wait a few more days." ”

"My father was forced to death by King Zhongshun, Uncle Shi, don't you even turn a blind eye?"

After speaking, Yang Lin's eldest son burst into tears and kowtowed heavily, "I implore Uncle Shi to call the shots!" ”

Kong Qian: "It doesn't have to be like this, it doesn't have to be like this!" Virtuous nephew, please get up! Hurry up, please! ”

Yang Lin's eldest son just shook his head, still kneeling there, motionless.

Liu Fusheng hurriedly helped him up, "Don't force the ministry anymore, if there is no evidence, not to mention the ministry, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be difficult to do." ”

Chen Qiang: "Evidence? Yang Ge has been honest and honest all his life, and his words are proof! ”

As soon as these words came out, many people shouted:

"Yes, we all believe in Yang Ge Lao's words!"

"Elder Yang Ge can't just die like this!"

"The Loyal Shun Mansion can't just get away with it!"

Mei Sheng spoke, "Every day is clear, every day is clear!" Yang Ge Lao worked hard for the community, martyred himself, and did not tolerate the rampant treacherous villain, we must keep our integrity and fight to the end with the villain of King Zhongshun! ”

Jia Yucun: "Even if there is evidence, the imperial court has a system of discussing nobles, and all crimes committed by the powerful are adjudicated by His Majesty the Emperor!" ”

Everyone was stunned, but Kong Qian and the others showed strange looks.

At this moment, a shout was heard outside the spirit shed: "The hereditary first-class prince of the Xiuguo Mansion has arrived!" ”

Everyone stared at the door one by one, and Hou Xiaokang walked in, looking at the folding box in his hand with suspicious eyes, a very large folding box.

walked up to Kong Qian and said softly, "Please ask Kong Shangshu to help you get it." ”

Hou Xiaokang bowed to the officials on both sides and walked straight to Ling.

Standing in front of the spirit, he saluted with incense, tied the filial piety belt handed by Yang Lin's eldest son around his waist, turned around and said, "Benjue knows that everyone is curious, why I came." In a word, Elder Yang Ge can't just die like this! ”

Everyone was shocked, and many people were excited.

Hou Xiaokang opened the box and took out the big piece of music, "This is the excerpt of the impeachment of the Zhongshun Palace, this lord is a rough man, there is no ink in his belly, and he copied the fold of Mei Yushi, which not only has the signature of the lord, but also the signature of the vast majority of the nobles of the provinces, in addition to the Zhenguo Gong, Zhongwu Bo and other people who fought for the country abroad, the king of Xining County and the king of Beijing also signed. ”

As he spoke, he gave Jia Yucun a look.

The two of them each carried the front and back covers of the recital, and pulled them open to both sides.

The fold is densely written with honors, titles, official titles and names!

Yang Lin's eldest son rushed to the spirit and cried loudly: "Father, open your eyes and take a look, do you see it!" See! ”

Suddenly, there was another shout: "The king of Huainan and the prince of Zhongshun have arrived!" ”

Everyone was startled and looked back.

Zhu Xunkun, the king of Huainan, appeared in front of everyone with Zhu Zaiyan, the son of the king of Zhongshun.

Yang Lin's eldest son was furious, he casually copied a mourning stick, walked forward with hatred in his eyes, Hou Xiaokang grabbed his arm and dragged him back, "Virtuous nephew calm down, don't mess around, we can't give someone a handle at this time!" ”

Jia Yucun snatched the mourning stick from his hand and whispered in his ear: "Da Zongzheng's words will play a big role. ”

reminded him with a word, and did not step forward to return the salute, but stood aside and stared at Zhu Zaiyan viciously.

Zhu Zaiyan inserted the incense stick in the incense burner in front of the spirit card, "Yang Ge Lao has worked hard for Jiangshan Sheji all his life, this is a little bit of my heart as a child of the clan, take it to Yang Ge Lao to do the funeral, try to give his old man a little more scenery." ”

Looking at the silver ticket handed over by Zhu Zaiji, Yang Lin's eldest son sneered, "I can't stand it, please go back!" ”

With such reckless words, Zhu Zaiyan was very annoyed, glanced at everyone, and said: "What the hell is going on, you must know very well, you have to buckle this basin on our heads, and what do you have to shout every day, hum, don't forget, there is still a piece of blue sky above our heads!" You must not act recklessly. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned!

............

Mandarin Palace, outer study.

Zhu Wucheng sat on the chair behind the book, put down the fold in his hand, pressed his somewhat sore brow, and sighed.

Suddenly, Wang An walked over quickly and silently, and whispered: "Your Highness, the prince of Zhongshun Wang went to the Yang Mansion, and Dazong is accompanying him." ”

A glimmer of alertness flashed in Zhu Wucheng's eyes!
