After the Ministry of Rites Shangshu was played, the triage of the three divisions did not pass, and the result of the cabinet vote was investigated by the Criminal Department.

In this regard, the celebrant directly approved the red, passed it directly after it was sent to the Criminal Division, and then sent it to the Criminal Department for execution.

As a result, an extremely formal investigation into the Japanese envoy's arrest of the European envoy was initiated, and the results were reported to the envoys of other countries at any time.

However, the reality is that Zhu Jinghong, as a party concerned, did not participate at all, and he should eat, drink, and play.

Of course, these are important events of the imperial court, and they have nothing to do with ordinary people, at most they have become the talk of noble and high-ranking officials at home.

For example, at this time, in the Rongguo Mansion, basically no one cared, just because there were more important things at home.

What's up? Of course, it's a cleansing of the family style.

Although Jia Yu was rotten before, objectively speaking, he still has ability, especially a little more ruthless than Jia Zheng.

In order to change his own image and redeem his unfavorable position in the emperor's heart, Jia Yu's rectification was completely unfavoritistic.

From the beginning of the purge to the present, it has only been seven or eight days, and countless slaves in the family have been fined and punished.

And those who were sold because of their deep mistakes were even more than 100 people.

Under this powerful blow, the atmosphere of Rongguo Mansion was completely renewed, and everything became orderly.

Jia Yu felt comfortable, and naturally some people were unhappy, such as Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, who were seized of power.

Mrs. Wang aside, as a daughter-in-law, Wang Xifeng has not been reused by her mother-in-law, Mrs. Xing, and has been "idle" at home these days.

With such a fiery personality, it was torture to suddenly be idle, so she looked at Jia Lian even more closely.

"And what do you do with the money and go out with it? Do you want to give that one a good match? Wang Xifeng said with a cold face.

"It's really serious this time!"

"What's the matter?"

"I'm going to have a banquet!"

Wang Xifeng glared and asked, "What kind of distinguished guest do you invite?" It cost a hundred taels of silver! ”

Objectively speaking, although one hundred taels is a huge amount of money, it is nothing to Rongguo Mansion, and Wang Xifeng can take it out.

"Naturally, it is a ...... of distinguished guests"

Seeing that Wang Xifeng didn't let go, Jia Lian had to explain: "It's the palace guard, who helped me out of the siege in Jinling before, and I said that I would be rewarded that day!" ”

"Now that people have come to the capital, how can I not express it!"

Wang Xifeng disagreed: "Even so, there is no need to be so extravagant, he can help us...... We can help him in Beijing, no! ”

"You really have long hair and short knowledge, you are a celebrity around the thirteenth master, why do you need to come to our house to help!" Jia Lian was full of resentment.

Sitting on the chair next to him, Jia Lian picked up the teacup and said coldly: "Now our family's situation, isn't it because there is no one in the palace to speak, and now the opportunity has come...... Do you want to let it go? ”

"If you don't want to give the money, I'll find my wife to go, and she's in charge of this house!"

Seeing that Jia Lian got up to leave, Wang Xifeng immediately said: "Slow down......"

"It's not just a hundred pieces of silver, I'll give it to you!"

Wang Xifeng offended a lot of people when she was a housekeeper, and now that she has lost her power and is treated coldly, there are not many people in the house who want to see her laugh.

If she begged Mrs. Xing for a hundred taels of silver, she would not be able to pull down this face, let alone be laughed at by the people in the house.

Ping'er brought the silver ticket, Jia Lian glanced at it and showed joy, and looked at Wang Xifeng after taking it into his pocket.

Thinking of what happened recently, Jia Lian sighed with emotion: "If there is no one to help him, no matter how much money he saves, it will be useless!" ”

"It's useful to use it?"

Jia Lian replied: "As long as it is used in the right place, it will be useful!" ”

Wang Xifeng sneered: "For those who are good outside, is it the right place?" ”

"You ......"

Jia Lian was angry for a while, and then brushed his sleeves away.

Seeing him leave, Ping'er handed over the tea to Wang Xifeng and said, "Grandma, why bother, the silver has been given, and people have been offended in vain!" ”

"What's more, now that the second master has also changed, he will never be as nonsense as before, and the second grandmother can rest assured!"

Hearing Ping'er say so much, Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "You think about him so much, why don't you come out of the one hundred taels?" ”

"If I had money, I would have honored my second grandmother a long time ago......"

"Don't be poor, you go out immediately to spread the word, ask a few people to follow the second master, and talk back at any time if there is any movement!"

Jia Lian, who went out, didn't know that someone was already staring at him secretly.

With a hundred taels of silver, he quickly went out of the house and rushed to Lu Yuxin's residence, and he could make up his mind for this friend.

Besides, in the Rongguo Mansion, Baoyu, who had been sick for a few days, can now go to the ground.

Just as Daiyu remembered him, he naturally also cared about Daiyu.

On the pretext of asking the ancestor for peace, he came to Jia's mother's courtyard, intending to see Lin Daiyu.

It's a pity that he didn't come at the right time, and Daiyu was not in Jia's mother's house.

It turned out that during this time, without Baoyu's company, Daiyu went to Baochai all the time, and the two exchanged knowledge at any time, chanted poems and wrote lyrics and stroked the qin, and the days were more interesting than in the past.

Now, Daiyu has Baochai as a confidant, and the importance of Baoyu in her heart naturally decreases.

What's more, these days, Aunt Xue often teaches Daiyu, making her understand many rules and truths.

Therefore, Daiyu also thinks that she should really hold back her thoughts, protect her reputation with Baoyu, and stop causing trouble for her uncle's family.

Daiyu is a smart person who grows up when things happen, but Baoyu is not.

After a pounce at Jia's mother, he rushed to Lixiangyuan again, but the entourage couldn't persuade him.

Jia Baoyu came to Lixiangyuan in a hurry, and at this moment the two hairpins and dai were studying their knowledge, one smiling and silent, and the other frowning and thinking.

Daiyu has always been confident in her own knowledge, but she didn't expect to be stumped now.

But when she thought that Baochai was three years older than herself, she would inevitably read more books, and Daiyu was relieved.

After thinking for a while, just as Daiyu's thoughts gradually became clearer, she heard a noise outside.

"Sister Lin? Sister Lin? ”

"It's the second brother......" Daiyu raised her eyebrows.

And Baochai, who was sitting at the back of the bookcase, was very uncomfortable at the moment, just because this Baoyu was too ignorant.

Now that Rongguo Mansion is in such a situation, he is restless to read and write, and he actually went to the inner house to mess around, this is not just handing a knife to people.

To be honest, Baochai doesn't want to stay in such a place as the Jia family, so she has mentioned it to her mother several times.

But one is that the Xue family's house has not been repaired yet, and the other is that Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang have a deep sisterhood, and the hardships of her sister make her unbearable to leave, so the matter of leaving the Jia family has been shelved.

Of course, Aunt Xue also promised her daughter that as long as Xue Pan arrived in Beijing, they would move out.

Sighing, Baochai was about to avoid it, but Baoyu had already entered.

"Okay...... Looking for you everywhere, it turns out that Sister Lin is hiding here with Sister Bao! ”

Baoyu smiled, and then sat down in the chair next to Daiyu.

"Bao Erye drinks tea"

waved away the maid serving tea, Baoyu couldn't help but look at Baochai twice, and then asked Daiyu: "Sister, these days, your body and bones are better!" ”

With a slight smile on her face, Daiyu replied: "I'm tired of the second brother, it's okay to take the medicine on time these days!" ”

"That's good, I'm being held out these days, and I can't watch you...... Keep it in mind! ”

"Now that my sister is safe, my heart is settled!"

Although she had heard these words many times, Daiyu still felt so moved that she knew that Baoyu really cared about her.

And Baochai, who was sitting on the side, was extremely embarrassed when he heard these words, so he could only read the book and pretend not to hear it.

But then Baoyu said: "It's all to blame on that thirteenth master, if he hadn't given birth to these incidents, how would I have separated from Sister Lin!" ”
