Following.

Early in the morning, Jia Zheng went to work in the imperial court.

The life of the yamen from 9 to 5 in the morning is so boring and boring.

Jia Zheng went to the imperial court on an errand, and a house slave ran over to inform Lord Huo, saying, "Grandma, the master has gone to the yamen, and it is estimated that he will be busy until the evening before he can come back."

Lord Huo was waiting for her words.

Jia Zheng is a pedantic person, a pure Confucian corrupt gentleman.

It is undoubtedly difficult for such a character to impress Jia Zheng with money.

Therefore, the conclusion of the discussion between the county lords and them was to hide it from the old lady Jia's mother, and also from the second master Jia Zheng.

Anyway, when Jia Zheng almost went to the court, he went to the court on time every day, and never slacked off for a day.

Don't worry about this Jia Zheng suddenly not going to the court, staying in this house all day.

After Jia Zheng left, Lord Huo ordered someone to call Lin Zhixiao.

This Lin Zhixiao is the father of Lin Hongyu, Jia Yun's concubine in Yunfu, and the bookkeeper of Rongguo Mansion.

The account books in this Rongguo Mansion on weekdays are registered in and out, and all of them are handled by Lin Zhixiao.

It can be said that such a key position can be placed in Lin Zhixiao's hands, which is enough to see that this person is credible.

At least in the eyes of Jia Mu and others, Lin Zhixiao is credible.

Now that this person has the same relationship as Hong'er, he is naturally the best candidate to implement this plan.

As the saying goes, things are made by secret.

In particular, the investigation and handling of this matter requires absolute secrecy.

If the secret is leaked out, so that Lai Da and the others can run away in advance with their assets, it will be a disaster.

Now here's your chance.

Jia Zheng went out to the court, Jia's mother was dragged by mandarin ducks, and everyone else in the house was also tied, it was time to sing a good show of outwitting Lai.

The lord of Huo County dispatched troops, first found Lin Zhixiao, and ordered: "You go to find a few reliable minions, and by the way, let the minions in the husband's house also follow you, those few minions are the long-term entourage of the husband, and they have been following the husband for many years, but they are available." You gathered, and then, in the name of the second master, invited Lai Da to come over, and said that the second master had something to discuss with him today. Go ahead..."

After that, Lin Zhixiao nodded and went down to do something.

After a while, Jia Baoyu also came, looked at Lord Huo, and asked, "How is the situation?"

Lord Huo smiled and said, "Everything is going well."

Suddenly, someone from the door came over and replied, "Second master, Uncle Lai is here."

Because Lai Da is in charge of the affairs of the outer house of the Rongguo Mansion, he is a very powerful figure in the Rongguo Mansion.

Even Jia Baoyu and the others were very polite to this Lai Da.

Speaking of which, Jia Baoyu also has some good relations and contacts with Lai Shangrong, the son of Na Lai.

Jia Baoyu looked at Lord Huo and said, "Then after we deal with this Lai Da, what will the others do?"

Lord Huo snorted coldly and said, "You can deal with it as you want. Husband, I know that you are kind in your heart, but benevolence and kindness will not work in this place." bμν.

As a child of a powerful family, there are really very few innocent people like Jia Baoyu.

Lord Huo is from the Nan'an Palace, so he naturally understands the cruelty inside.

Those people outside are not well fed and clothed, and eating a full meal is a luxury, let alone enjoyment.

All of this is based on power.

Once they lose their power, then they are no different from those ordinary people outside, or even worse.

This kind of truth, even the maids in Rongguo Mansion know it, but this Jia Baoyu is too well protected, but he doesn't know much about this matter.

Lord Huo was also not willing to talk about these things with this Jia Baoyu.

Because, she clearly knew in her heart that even if she told Jia Baoyu about it, she was afraid of this Jia Baoyu

I can't understand it.

It's better not to say it.

Today's Lai Da was puzzled, Jia Baoyu, who had never called him over much, suddenly ordered someone to come over and call him over to tell things today, so he was busy pulling this house slave who was passing the word, and asked, "Mingyan, what do you say Second Master Bao called me over to do today?"

Mingyan had already gotten the news, and knew that he was going to fix this today, so he also smiled and said perfunctorily: "I don't know if the second master is crazy today and wants to find the uncle to do something in the past, but it can't be a bad thing." Uncle, you better go quickly! If you go late, the second master will lose his temper, I'm afraid that if anyone comes and doesn't listen to persuasion, you and I will be unlucky."

Lai Da listened to Mingyan's words, immediately nodded, and said, "Well, that's still the matter that the second master ordered, let's go over quickly!"

After that, Lai Da followed the tea to Jia Baoyu's courtyard.

But who knew that as soon as Lai Da stepped into this Jia Baoyu's courtyard, he was hugged by Mingyan from behind.

At the same time, Mingyan's mouth was still noisy: "Don't make a fuss, Lai Da, your matter has happened today, and the second master is about to take you!" I advise you to give up struggling, otherwise, when we do it, you will have to suffer."

After that, Mingyan shouted loudly, "Come out and help me get someone!"

For a while, a total of 18 family slaves who had been ambushed in advance came out from everywhere and surrounded this Lai Da Tuan Tuan, preventing this Lai Da from leaving.

When Lai Da saw this, he was naturally going to die and struggle.

If you are caught, won't all the glory and wealth be gone?

For a while, Lai was so ruthless that he broke free from the shackles of this cigarette, and he planned to run back.

Unexpectedly, the others swarmed up and quickly subdued Lai Da.

As the saying goes, punch the master to death.

This is a common occurrence for Lai Daben to be old, and physical exhaustion.

These people called by Lord Huo are all young and strong young men, and their strength is naturally crushing this dependent.

Besides, for the sake of insurance, this Huo County Lord even called more than a dozen strong young men, so he naturally easily grabbed this Lai Da, tied it up with a thick rope, and brought it to Jia Baoyu, saying, "Second Master, this Lai Da is arrested, and it is all up to the Second Master's orders."

Jia Baoyu looked at Lai Da in front of him with a hesitant face, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Immediately, Jia Baoyu looked at Lord Huo next to him and said, "This... What should I do?"

Lai Da glanced at Jia Baoyu, but he was also calm and calm.

He walked all the way, he didn't know how many winds and waves he had seen, and this little thing couldn't scare him, so he looked at Jia Baoyu and asked, "Second master, what are you doing here?" What are you going to do with me?"

Lord Huo took over the topic and sneered, "Okay, you're a big man, and you're dying, don't you know what you've done?"
