Episode 377: The Jia family is unlucky, and the Xue family lies down
Yang Xiao and the others hurriedly came to Jiafu, and they left in a hurry without even eating, such a change really made many people confused, especially Jia's mother, she didn't have time to contact Lin Daiyu to contact her feelings, and then discuss the marriage of the two Yu'er with Lin Ruhai? Could it be that the Lin family is developed, and they don't want to recognize the relatives of the Jia family, and they don't have to be so shameless!
In the Rongxi Hall, listening to the continuous complaints from Jia's mother's mouth, Jia Yu sneered ill-willedly, and said: "Mother, if you want to know the reason, you can ask the second brother's family, especially Baoyu, what happened, he knows best." ”
When Jia's mother heard this, she was about to get angry with Jia Yu, who would have thought that at this time, another maid came to report, saying that Jia Zheng was crazy about Jia Baoyu, and this time Jia Zheng was serious, and she was determined to let Jia Baoyu taste the power of Jia's family law, Jia's mother loved Jia Baoyu the most, and when she heard the news, she couldn't sit still anymore, and hurriedly went to fight the fire.
Not to mention the Jia family's chickens and dogs jumping here, Lin Ruhai, who returned to the Protector's Mansion, was also angry, and couldn't stop muttering: "I'm angry, I'm angry, I'm really angry!"
Seeing that Lin Daiyu had already returned to the room, Yang Xiao couldn't help but say loudly: "Ruhai, don't patronize and get angry first, it's useless." ”
"But, uncle, his Jia family is really too deceitful!" Lin Ruhai's heart was churning with anger, where could it be extinguished, he sent Lin Daiyu to relatives, but he was not a child daughter-in-law for the Jia family, not to mention, the object was a straw bag like Jia Baoyu!
Yang Xiao smiled and said: "Being angry can't solve the problem, go to Jiafu today." It's not that we haven't gained anything, it stands to reason that the Jia family now only has Jia Yu and the title of a first-class general left. Why is there still a plaque of the Rongguo Mansion?"
When Lin Ruhai heard this, he guessed a little hesitantly: "Is it because the emperor is looking at my late father-in-law, so he let Jiafu retain the title of Rongguo Mansion?"
Yang Xiao said to himself: "But no matter what, it is Jia Yu who inherits the title, why is Jia Zheng in charge of Rongxi Hall, but Jia Yu is rushed to the side of the stable?"
As soon as the words fell, Yang Xiao turned around and left the hall. Walking towards the courtyard where he lived, he said everything that should be reminded, below. It depends on how Lin Ruhai takes revenge on the Jia family.
The next day, the Jia family sent someone to apologize, but the door of the Protector's Mansion was closed. I don't see anyone from the Jia family at all. This can make the people of the Jia family anxious, and Jia Baoyu's biological mother, Mrs. Wang, saw that Baoyu was clamoring to see Lin Daiyu, otherwise she would not be able to live, so she had no choice but to think about it, and hurriedly sent someone to Jinling to deliver a letter, asking her sister Aunt Xue to take Xue Pan and Baochai into Beijing quickly.
Since the Xue family left, this business has become more and more difficult to do. Although he still has the name of an imperial businessman, Xue Pan is stupid. is another big spender, and most of the family property was ruined within two years. Although Xue Baochai has the heart to take care of the family business, she is a girl after all, she can't show her face, and her mother is an unassertive person, so the situation of the Xue family is not as good as a year.
Seeing the letter from Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue thought about it in her heart, and after discussing it with her good daughter, everyone decided to go to Beijing to seek refuge with relatives.
Besides, Xue Pan is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, at the beginning of the year, he once killed a talented Feng Yuan in order to compete for a girl, and he saved his life by going through the back door, and now, he actually left this girl by his side, and he also wanted to take it to the capital. Xue Baochai saw that his brother began to make trouble again, and he was also sad for the girl, and then he saw that this girl was also good-looking, so he pondered that there was only one maid by his side when he entered Beijing this time, and it would not be good if he was laughed at by his aunt's sisters, so he told her mother that she wanted to keep that girl by her side.
Although Xue Pan coveted that girl, but in their Xue family, he never dared to offend his sister Baochai, and when he saw her open his mouth, he had to let go of the impatience in his heart.
The Xue family hurried and hurried, and finally arrived in the capital a few days later, and when they arrived at Jia's mansion, the middle door of Rongguo's mansion was wide open, and Mrs. Wang personally greeted her from the upper room, followed by the three girls of the Jia family and Baoyu. The positive attitude is really different from when Daiyu entered the mansion.
Jia Baoyu is a master who likes to gather and not to disperse, since Sister Lin left, her heart has been empty every day, even if she attacks others and teases herself, she feels bored. Now it's good, there is a fairy-like sister in the family, hibiscus face, willow like eyebrows, good character, beautiful appearance, ice muscles and jade bones, which makes it difficult to move people's eyes.
Xue Baochai knew her aunt's purpose for calling her family to the capital, and she was a scheming person, so seeing that the sisters were friendly with her, Baoyu was extremely close to her, so she had to put a lot of thought into it and quietly stammered everyone.
Although the Xue family has declined, as the old saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and no matter what, the silver that the Xue family transported to the capital is about 300,000 taels. In order to give Mrs. Wang a long face, Aunt Xue and Baochai bought gifts for people, and offered Jinling's favors and local things everywhere, and knew that Mother Jia loved to eat the duck in her hometown, so she specially selected more than a dozen of the most delicate and tight meats to present.
Up and down, not to mention the aunts who didn't fall into Jiafu, even the most inferior pulp washing mother-in-law also got the Xue family's reward and gadgets, and everyone praised the imperial merchant family for being extraordinary, and said that the girls of the Xue family are the most knowledgeable and reasonable, understand the warmth and coldness of people, and they are also polite when they see them, who do rough work, much better than the one of the Lin family.
After Lin Ruhai listened to Yang Xiao's words, he had an idea and sent someone to find out about the situation of the Jia family, but when he was about to do it, he remembered that it was Lin Daiyu's foreign family, so he made the common mistake of a scholar, and his heart softened, but he never thought that before he completely softened, he listened to the people of Jiafu talk that his daughter was not as good as the daughter of a merchant's family, now, how can he stand it!
Shinong Industry and Commerce, in this era, even farmers who farm land have more status than businessmen, not to mention, he is like a sea, a dignified protector of the country, his daughter is not as good as the daughter of a merchant, immediately, he couldn't bear it anymore, secretly contacted some officials, and began to impeach the Jia family.
With the secret support of the Duke of the Protector and the National Teacher, coupled with the fact that the evidence of the Jia family's crimes is already very conclusive, those imperial envoys and officials are naturally confident, bold and confident.
There are imperial envoys and officials impeaching the court etiquette system of the Jia family, and the Duke of Rongguo has been dead for many years, but now there is still a plaque of the Duke of Rongguo's mansion, which is simply ignoring the etiquette of the imperial court!
There are imperial envoys who impeached Jia Zheng, ignored the court etiquette, drove the elder brother of the raider to live on the edge of the stable, and stole the Rongxi Hall himself.
Some officials impeached the Jia family for owing 800,000 taels of silver to the state treasury and had not returned it for many years.
There are also officials who impeached them, and the Jia family bullied others, bullied the people outside, did all kinds of evil, and even did the immoral thing of usury, and even forced people to die because of this
In other words, this evidence or something, in this era, I really want to have it, and I buy one get one free, Lin Ruhai just wanted to teach the Jia family a lesson, but he didn't expect that as more and more people's criminal evidence appeared, the old bottom of the Jia family was about to be brought out.
The emperor was very angry, coupled with Yang Xiao's secret instructions, he immediately ordered the Jia family to return the treasury silver, punished a large number of Jia family members, ordered the Jia family to hang the plaque of the first-class general's mansion, and dismissed Jia Zheng's officials, and let Jia Zheng quickly move out of the Rongxi Hall belonging to his brother and a series of punishments.
The holy decree was struck, and suddenly, the Jia family was completely blinded!
When Mother Jia heard the holy decree, she fainted directly in the Rongxi Hall, and couldn't stop shouting: "What kind of sin has our Jia family done!"
Jia Yu Jia Zheng hurriedly rushed to Jia's mother, looking like a filial son, different from Jia Zheng's real sorrow, but Jia Yu was ecstatic in his heart!
But then, the Xue family was also blinded, because, when the Praetorian Guards went to Jia's house to arrest people, they "accidentally" discovered the murderer Xue Pan who should have died, so he was arrested by the way.
Well, this is the legendary lying down and getting shot! (To be continued......)
