Chapter 63: Murdering an Imperial Court Official?
The front yard fell silent for a while, except for the two dogs hanging from the tree who wailed from time to time, no one opened their mouths to break the strange state at this time.
However, the little woman who followed Mrs. Tan looked at Tan Qichang distressedly, and tears fell down. However, she should have been warned by Old Madam Tan a long time ago, and she covered her mouth and never spoke.
"Ahem...... The old lady was born in the Zhen family? Is it the Jinling Zhen family? ”
Jia Cong gave a false help, and Old Madam Tan got up.
After she glanced at Tan Zhen with a gloomy face, she said proudly: "The old woman is indeed from the Zhen family in Jinling, but she is only a branch of the Zhen family. Please also look at the relationship between our two families for generations, spare my grandson once, the Zhen family is grateful! ”
Saying that she was going to bow down again, Mama Li came forward to support her.
Jia Cong pretended to be embarrassed, and said leisurely: "Old lady, do you know how I told the head of the Tan family just now?" ”
Old Madam Tan looked at Tan Zhen, who was silent on the side, and said to Jia Cong with a laugh: "Chang'er is just instructed by someone, I don't know if Third Master Cong is not interested in the people behind this matter?" ”
At this time, Tan Zhen did not regain his calmness, and warned loudly: "Madam, this evil beast caused its own trouble, can it implicate others?" ”
"Smack!"
The whip in Jia Cong's hand shook it and whipped it Tan Zhen's mouth.
"The master is talking to the old lady, do you have the right to interject? Dare to say more, master, I will hang on the tree with you and fight! ”
Hehe!
Old Madam Tan sneered and sneered: "Isn't the master busy with that little slut, you and me, and plans to drive our mother-in-law and grandson out of the Tan family?" It just so happens that the old woman also has this intention! ”
As she spoke, she whispered a few words in Jia Cong's ear, and then glanced at Tan Zhen, who covered her mouth and couldn't speak, and sneered: "Originally, the old woman didn't plan to let Chang'er get involved in this matter, but if he didn't see what his grandfather was like, the old woman was worried that he would hate me." Third Master Cong, Chang'er is a good boy, he doesn't know what kind of impact this will have on Miss Lin, and he asks Third Master Cong to spare him once! ”
It doesn't matter if it's a good boy or not, Old Madam Tan did give Jia Cong a reason why he couldn't refuse.
Daiyu had already received a secret letter from Mrs. Tan quietly stuffed her, and Mama Li also brought Daiyu's opinion, so Jia Cong naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity.
It's really an unexpected joy, I originally just wanted to teach the six major salt merchants a lesson, but I didn't expect that the contradictions within the Tan family would give Jia Cong such a big gift!
Jia Cong had already understood the cause and effect of this incident, and ordered in a cold voice: "Come on, Tan Zhen is suspected of murdering the imperial court officials, and immediately take it down and send it to the Dragon Guards Yangzhou Thousand Households, and hand them over to the Dragon Guards for strict interrogation!" ”
"No!"
The soldiers of Rongguo Mansion who were guarding the side immediately pounced and tied Tan Zhen up.
Tan Zhen didn't know what Mrs. Tan said to Jia Cong at all, and thought that the murder of Lin Ruhai had happened, so she shouted loudly: "Third Master Cong, Xiao Lao'er has always been law-abiding, when did you murder the court officials?" ”
"Oh? That's it! ”
Jia Cong slowly walked up to Tan Zhen, pinched Tan Zhen's right hand, and gently scratched the back of his hand with his fingernails, and a light red mark appeared on the back of his hand.
"Look, you hurt me......"
Jia Cong smiled: "This official is a five-grade official given by His Majesty, isn't it a murder of the imperial court official if you hurt this official?" Gagged him and took away! ”
The soldiers who received the order found a dirty rag out of nowhere, blocked Tan Zhen's mouth and dragged him out.
Old Madam Tan seemed to have exhausted all the strength of her body, and her originally tall body also stiffened. She looked at Jia Cong pleadingly, but didn't say anything more.
"Don't worry, old lady, since you have given me a reasonable explanation and a satisfactory explanation, then I will not break my promise, and the old lady Tan Qichang can take it away, but when he needs the old lady to testify in court, he still hopes that the old lady will keep her promise."
As soon as Jia Cong's words were finished, Old Madam Tan bowed down and bowed: "This is natural, for the sake of Chang'er, the old woman dares to do anything!" ”
……
Tan Zhen was suddenly dragged away, not to mention anything else, the remaining five salt merchant owners were all terrified.
Yang Siqi was particularly frightened, and looked at Jia Cong, who turned his attention to him, in horror.
When he looked at him in Jia Cong, he knelt down with a puff: "Third Master Cong spares his life, the villain is willing to sacrifice 500,000 taels of silver to atone for my son!" ”
"What's going on? What is it to be so noisy? ”
At this moment, Jia Yu, Pei Weisheng, Zhen Yingjia and Tang Guangbiao, who were originally discussing in the study, came over.
After seeing the situation in the front yard, Jia Yu looked confused. He had heard of the two boys' plan to muddy the waters today, but he didn't expect it to make such a big fuss.
"Father, that's ...... like this."
Jia Lian, who hadn't spoken for a long time, respectfully stepped forward and told the story of the incident, of course, he told him the truth about Tan Zhen's murder of the court officials.
However, in the end, Jia Lian specially asked Zhen Yingjia: "Uncle Zhen Shi, Tan Qichang is the grandson of the Zhen family, I don't know if Uncle Zhen Shi'er thinks Brother Cong'er's disposal is reasonable?" ”
"Reasonable, reasonable!"
Where can Zhen Yingjia still take care of this little thing, he is now full of things about salt tax and silver, Tan Zhen is just a dog raised by the Zhen family, and he is no longer a loyal dog, whether he is dead or alive is his own worry about others, what is the matter with the Zhen family?
Jia Lian smiled slightly, and said with a compliment: "It's still Uncle Shi's reason, and the little nephew admires it!" Father, Tan Qichang's matter has been properly disposed of, and there is only this Yang Ruyi left, how does my father think it should be handled? ”
Before Jia Yu responded, Yang Siqi kowtowed to Jia Yu and begged for mercy: "Forgive the public forgiveness, the villain is willing to sacrifice 500,000 taels to atone for my son's sins, and please forgive the forgiveness!" ”
"Tsk, they all say that salt merchants are rich, and today they really have a lot of knowledge!"
Jia Yu sighed twice, raised his foot and kicked at Yang Siqi: "Something like a dog, dare to use silver to dirty the master's ears!" ”
Yang Siqi had never practiced martial arts, and was kicked by Jia Yu angrily, and flew directly to the crooked neck tree hanging from Yang Ruyi, and slammed into the tree and vomited a mouthful of blood.
"Brother Enhou, don't be angry!"
Zhen Yingjia didn't know what he remembered, so he put aside the worry in his heart and stopped in front of Jia Yu, and whispered: "The Yang family's son is in the middle of the household, don't go too far!" ”
"Yo, I'm still a ...... official"
Jia Yu sneered, and took the whip from Jia Cong's hand and slapped it on Yang Siqi's body, and the blood splashed everywhere after the whip, and the brocade clothes on his original body were instantly tattered.
"There's a son of a speaker, so what? The impeachment of Lao Tzu can drown the General Administration, has Lao Tzu ever been afraid? ”
Syllable!
Another whip went down, and Yang Siqi's scream startled the bird that had originally stopped on the tree in the courtyard.
Jia Yu looked at his youngest son: "San'er, tell me, what should I do with these two people?" ”
"Can my son dig a pit for these two and bury them?"
Hiss!
Jia Cong's response made Pei Weisheng, Zhen Yingjia and others take a deep breath, Jia Yu's youngest son is so ruthless?
I saw Jia Yu shake his head, and said leisurely: "No, according to the laws of Great Xia, they will not die for their crimes." ”
Jia Cong scratched the back of his head and smiled: "That's it, that son understands." Yang Ruyi collided with the official family with bad intentions and broke two dog paws as punishment. Yang Siqi intended to bribe the imperial court officials, and was imprisoned for one year, fined 1 million taels of silver, and sent to the capital to be charged to the treasury of the household department. Daddy, my son made a disposition according to the laws of Daxia this time, you won't object this time, right? ”
