Xue Mansion, the sun slanted in the west.

In the inner house, the three members of the Xue family were frowning sadly, just because they had received a lot of worship posts today.

These greetings were all sent by the magistrate of Jinling, and the content of them was concise and to the point, and they all persuaded Xue Pan to withdraw the complaint.

At the same time as the kind words and persuasions, there is also a warning in the prayer post, saying that you should not see each other in the future.

Most of these officials are six-grade and seven-grade, and Xue Pan is not afraid at all on weekdays, after all, his family has a relationship with the DPRK and China.

However, this time it was different, when he stood on the opposite side of Jinling officialdom, the nature was completely different.

He has people in the DPRK, so there are so many officials?

"What a good thing this is!" Aunt Xue's face turned pale, obviously frightened.

In the face of this situation, Baochai was also powerless, so she could only comfort her mother to be relieved, and the matter had not yet reached an irreparable situation.

"The celebrant has passed the word again today, let's buy food and ordnance as soon as possible, no matter how difficult things are, we will come together!"

Xue Pan didn't speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he detonated Aunt Xue's roar and scolded him on the spot.

Xue Pan knew that he was unreasonable, so he could only bear it silently, thinking about how to slip away!

The Xue family has a sad face, and Hu Jin'an, who is also a party, is also borrowing wine to kill his sorrows at the moment.

He never thought that the Xue family would sue him according to the judge, and he was not greedy for his family's money?

Because the news was not transparent, Hu Jinan didn't know the inside story, he planned to go to Xue's house to ask for clarification, but unfortunately Xue Pan didn't see him at all.

"Master, the Chief Minister, Lord Qian is here!"

Hearing the next person's report, Hu Jinan felt a little puzzled, he thought that he had no friendship with Qian Ruiming, and it was very unusual for the other party to come over at this time.

"Please come to the front hall to serve tea, I'll come over after changing clothes!"

"Yes!"

When Hu Jin'an came to the front hall, he saw Qian Ruiming standing with his hands in his hands, looking up and admiring the paintings on the wall.

"It's too late, please don't blame me!"

"Lord Hu, this painting of 'picking chrysanthemums under the east fence' has the charm of Tao Yuanming, but why hasn't it been paid?"

Qian Ruiming turned around and looked at Hu Jin'an with doubts.

While beckoning Qian Ruiming to sit down, Hu Jinan said at the same time: "It's not a secret, this is a casual work of the lower officials, used to decorate the façade, wouldn't it be in vain to make a smile!" ”

After the head sat down, Qian Ruiming motioned for Hu Jin'an to sit down as well, and said at the same time: "Decorate the door with your own paintings, Master Hu is really a breeze on his sleeves!" ”

Although this is his own home, Hu Jin'an still looks extremely humble and sits in the position of a guest.

He knew that Qian Ruiming's coming must have a deep meaning, so he followed the topic and said: "Even so, there are villains who make trouble and pour dirty water on the humble position!" ”

"I've also heard about you, this is really a disaster, and all my colleagues in Jinling are upset for you!"

"The world is declining, and now the prince has been dismissed from his position, and I am afraid that this time I will be unavoidable!"

Hu Jin'an's speech progressed very quickly, and he mentioned the passing of the hall without foreshadowing, just to probe the tone from Qian Ruiming to see if he could avoid the matter of passing the hall.

Seeing through his thoughts, Qian Ruiming said slowly: "This time the matter is not as simple as you think, your case involves the entire Jinling officialdom!" ”

Next, Qian Ruiming told the details of the matter in detail, so that Hu Jinan fully understood the situation.

"So, you have to go through this case, and you have to deal with the prince in a dignified manner!"

"Behind you, there are colleagues in Jinling officialdom and King Rui, we will not necessarily lose this lawsuit!" Qian Ruiming told slowly.

After listening to all the analysis, Hu Jinan finally understood the situation, and at this moment he felt both relieved and apprehensive.

Although there will be many people to help him, as a veteran of officialdom, he is well aware of the risks of this lawsuit.

As the spokesperson who is being launched, he is likely to be a victim regardless of whether his side wins or loses.

But in the face of these, he Hu Jinan had no choice but to let the general trend push forward.

"My lord, have you ever been to Xue Mansion?"

Qian Ruiming said calmly: "The Xue family has no choice like Ling, but we put pressure on him, presumably the Xue family will not be too difficult!" ”

But it was difficult for Hu Jin'an to convince Hu Jin'an, because as a chess piece, he could better understand the situation of the Xue family at this moment.

Next, the two discussed the details of the trial.

…………

Luoyang, the capital of the gods, the inner city that envelops the imperial city, is a place where the powerful live.

The residences of the royal nobles and high-ranking officials occupied all the places in the inner city, including the Rongguo Mansion, one of the four kings and eight dukes.

Under the afterglow of the sunset, the Rongguo Mansion was quiet and peaceful, and the servants and maids were busy walking through, waiting for the food and daily life of the masters of the mansion.

In the second room on the east side of Rongxi Hall, there was a middle-aged man in a brocade robe, who was frowning and looking at the letter at the moment.

This person is the person in charge of the public mansion, Jia Zheng, who is currently a member of the Ministry of Works, and sitting next to him is Mrs. Wang.

"This brute really ate the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard......"

"What is he, he actually provoked the Thirteenth Master, this bastard is not looking for death?"

Hearing her husband's angry scolding, Mrs. Wang didn't dare to answer for a while, so she could only wait silently for her husband to calm down.

Even she didn't dare to speak, Sanchun and Jia Huan, who were sitting in the house, were even more silent at the moment.

"You all get out!"

Hearing this, the four of them got up and saluted and left in a hurry.

After her husband was a little angry, Mrs. Wang spoke: "Pan'er, this child is really messing around, master, you have to think of a way, after all, my sister is this one son!" ”

"Nonsense? Do you still think this is nonsense? The anger that Jia Zheng had suppressed was burning again at this moment.

"He's looking for death, it's not enough to hurt the Xue family, and now he wants to affect us!"

"The thirteenth master didn't pursue it, why did the master bother with this matter!" There was dissatisfaction in Mrs. Wang's tone.

"The Thirteenth Master slashed him with a knife, and our family is clean!" Seeing that his wife was really ignorant, Jia Zheng didn't plan to say more to him, so he got up and walked outside.

This matter is too involved, even Jia Zheng can't get an idea, so he wants to go to Wang's house.

When her husband left, Mrs. Wang became more and more angry the more she thought about it, and finally said angrily: "Hmph, it's just that I don't like it, why bother to talk about Pan'er!" ”

Besides, Sanchun and the others left Rongxi Hall, Jia Huan went back to Aunt Zhao's residence, and Sanchun rushed to Jia's mother's house.

It's time to eat, and seeing that the three granddaughters haven't come over yet, Jia's mother has sent someone to urge her a few times.

Knowing that it was to listen to the training at Jia's office, Jia's mother gave up, so she ordered the maids to postpone the delivery of food and talk to Baoyu Daiyu.

"The girl has arrived!"

The mothers-in-law outside shouted, and after a while, they saw Sanchun coming together, standing in front of Jia's mother and saluting.

After greeting peace, everyone sat down in turn, Jia Mu was at the top, and Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu were on the left and right.

Both of them are only eleven or twelve years old, their bodies have not yet developed, they are completely childlike, sitting on the left and right of Jia's mother and not taking up space.

"Why did you stay with you for so long today?"

Jia Baoyu couldn't help but ask, and the petite Lin Daiyu on the side was also curious, hoping to hear something new.

I only heard Tanchun reply: "Aunt Xue of Jinling sent a letter, saying that the eldest brother of the Xue family was fighting for slaves and maids on the street, and was beaten by the thirteenth master!" ”

"Thirteenth Master?" Jia Baoyu looked puzzled.

If it is a child of another noble family, you can know who it is when you hear these three words, but the Jia family does not have these tutors.

It was Jia Mu, who was sitting at the top, her brows furrowed at the moment, waiting for Tanchun to continue.

"He is the thirteenth son of the Holy One today!"
