In Rongxi Hall——
Pairs of eyes looked at Jia Heng with scrutiny, indifference, pity, or resentment.
Jia Heng saluted Jia Mu. Jia Mu's face was no longer as kind as before, and she just said lightly: "My old lady can't stand your gift."
It was clearly because he was extremely dissatisfied with Jia Heng's act of "reporting to the official" regardless of the overall situation.
A member of the same clan cannot write two characters of "Jia" in one stroke. If there is something that cannot be settled privately, he has to report it to the official and arrest the clan leader, making the matter impossible to end. Do you still have a clan in your heart?
Fortunately, she gave this young man a maid to serve him last time, but he was so ignorant!
Jia Heng raised his eyes and looked at Jia's mother and said, "The old lady is highly virtuous and respected. Jia Zhen acted fairly when she abducted the bride the day before yesterday. Heng is inexplicably impressed and deserves this gift."
Jia Mu snorted, her face darkened, and she said nothing.
Jia She sneered and said, "You're an unfamiliar wolf, since you admit that the old lady is fair in dealing with things, why do you still hold a grudge and frame your elder brother Zhen in Dongfu?"
Mrs.
Jia Heng glanced at Jia She, then looked at Jia Mu, who had a cold face and said nothing, and said, "Old lady, I wonder who these two people are singing harmony?"
Jia She and Mrs. Xing: "..."
Without waiting for Jia Mu's answer, Sister Feng's eyebrows stood up, her eyes were stern, and Qingyue's voice was full of fierceness, saying: "How brave! This is the eldest man and his wife, Jia Heng, do you think no one in the Jia family can cure it?" You? If you dare to be lawless again, believe it or not, the old lady will come to the palace to accuse you of being disobedient and break your stubbornness?"
At this moment, she, the daughter-in-law, was the only one of the same generation as Jia Heng who could answer questions. Otherwise, her father-in-law and mother-in-law would be crowded out. If she remained silent, she would easily be gossiped about later.
Jia Heng glanced at Sister Feng coldly, then looked at the gloomy Jia She, and sneered: "Who do I think it is? It turns out to be the eldest master. No wonder he doesn't distinguish between right and wrong and confuses right and wrong!"
"You! You are so arrogant!" When Jia She heard this, he felt a surge of evil fire rushing over his head, and he slapped the case, his beard under his chin trembling slightly.
How long had he heard this before?
What a lawless bastard!
Following Jia Heng's teasing words, the servants and maids of Rongxi Hall were all shocked and looked at the young man as if they were seeing a ghost.
However, this is a dialogue between the men of the Jia clan, a confrontation between the relatives and the direct clan.
Mrs. Wang's face changed slightly and she stared at the young man with disgust. Youshi also raised a face as beautiful as a begonia flower and stared at the young man in green shirt.
Li Wan also looked silent.
As for Sister Feng, there was a sneer on her lips. This person really didn't know how to live or die.
Jia Heng said coldly: "Jia Zhen colluded with the Cuihua Mountain thieves to kidnap my wife before she was married. This crazy act is simply shocking. This animal is now being detained by the Jingzhao Yamen for interrogation. Its evil has been revealed and it has violated our laws." Law, the eldest master said that I framed Jia Zhen? This is not confusing right and wrong, so what is it? People often say that the eldest master behaves strangely and does not know right from wrong. Heng thought that three people can make a tiger, and everyone can make money. Now it seems that this statement It’s not groundless!”
As soon as these words came out, there was first silence in Rongxi Hall, then an uproar, and even silence for a long time.
Mrs. humble!"
Mrs. Xing's words were even passed on by Jia Mu. Jia Mu snorted coldly, while Sister Feng glanced sideways at her mother-in-law who was about to stand up in anger.
Jia Lian looked gloomy and frowned, while Jia Zheng was stunned in place, as if he hadn't reacted yet.
Jia Heng narrowed his eyes and looked at Mrs. It’s simply ridiculous to want to help the tyrants do evil!”
Mrs. elder!"
"Right and wrong cannot be distorted by putting on the airs of elders." Jia Heng said lightly, and said in a deep voice: "Jingzhao Yamen, national laws and regulations, will not recognize the airs of elders!"
Jia She said angrily: "It's the opposite, it's the opposite. Come on, take this lawless bastard, drag it out, and beat him to death!"
However, in the outer courtyard, Lin Zhixiao had an ugly face, but did not respond. Looking at the young man standing with his sword in his hand, his eyebrows skipped a beat. If he rushed in, would he be bleeding in the Rongxi Hall?
He had also carefully inquired about the young man's past these past few days. He was so good at boxing and kicking that even the servants in the East Mansion could not defeat him.
If I startle the old lady again...
Thinking of this, Lin Zhixiao gritted his teeth, stamped his feet... and pretended not to have heard Jia She's instructions.
Jia Lian grimaced, stood up, and called: "Brother Heng..."
Jia Heng glanced at Jia Lian, and then looked at Jia She, who had a ferocious expression and eyes that were almost ready to spit fire, without giving in. He shouted: "I am a citizen of the Han Dynasty. I have not violated the laws of the country, so who dares to take me? On the contrary, Jia Zhen, as a mighty general of the third rank of the imperial court, despised the emperor's salary and ignored the emperor's kindness. She did not want to serve the imperial court. Instead, she was ambitious and colluded with the bandits. She committed violence and lawlessness at the feet of the emperor of the capital. She betrayed the emperor's trust at the top and was humiliated at the bottom. The honor of our ancestors and the laws and regulations of the country cannot allow us to tolerate this person who has no king and no father!"
At this moment, the young man's words, like the sound of clanging swords, echoed in the Hall of Rongxi. The maids and servants all lowered their heads, feeling as if the sky was about to collapse. It was the feeling of the world's world collapsing.
Li Wan was trying to comfort Jia Mu, but he was also stunned in place, looking at the upright young man with dull eyes.
Youshi's face was pale, her mouth was slightly open, and her slender hands hidden in her sleeves were cold. Her husband, in the eyes of this young man, had become a man without a king or a father.
Wang Xifeng was about to speak when she heard Jia Mu patted the teacup and said, "That's enough!"
At this time, Yuanyang hurriedly stepped forward, caressed Jia Mu's back, and looked at Jia Heng with a slight "begging" look under her beautiful eyebrows.
Jia Heng cupped his hands at Jia Mu and said, "Old lady."
He can be angry at Jia She and Mrs. Xing, because he is from Ningguo. After countless generations, it is nothing more than a quarrel. Everyone broke up. From now on, he no longer receives the protection of the clan, and he himself does not Ask the clan for something.
But Jia Mu couldn't do it. Not only was Jia Mu the highest-ranking person in the Jia family, but there were a lot of old ladies, he couldn't stand up too hard.
Moreover, the old lady Jia Mu is not a bad person at all. She is an old lady with bad children and grandchildren. She is not a strong woman, so what can she do?
Jia's mother looked indifferent and looked at Jia Heng and said, "Jia Heng, I told you the day before yesterday that you and Brother Zhen are not allowed to hold grudges anymore, why do you still need to report them to the government?"
Sister Feng sneered at the side and said: "In order to resolve the grudge between you and Brother Zhen, our ancestors gave you a pretty maid in the house. How do you repay our ancestors?"
Jia Heng said: "The old lady knows right from wrong, and Heng appreciates that. But Jia Zhen colludes with bandits and wants to harm me. Do I have to sit back and wait for death?"
Jia Mu felt dizzy, colluding with thieves, colluding with thieves, how could Brother Zhen be so confused?
Sister Feng said: "When you report to the mansion, the old lady will make the decision. Why should you report to the official?"
Jia She snorted coldly and said, "The ungrateful people have no clan at all in their hearts!"
Jia Zheng also sighed.
Jia Mu looked at Jia Heng, her expression a little colder, and said, "What's the matter that cannot be settled within the clan and must be brought to the government?"
Jia Heng said: "If there was a method of knotting in the clan, how could Jia Zhen be allowed to be so rampant? If we don't report it to the official, is it possible that the family of Jia Mansion, a century-old prince, wants to protect people like Jia Zhen who collude with thieves and bandits?"
Jia She bowed and said, "Mother, this person is arrogant and disrespectful and has no clan in his heart. He should be purged from the clan and let him fend for himself!"
But it was just now that I figured out that if Jia Heng lost his Jia clan status, he would have a bad reputation in Shenjing and would be shouted at and beaten. Whether he wanted to study for the imperial examination or join the army as a general, he would be restricted. At that time, there were many The method was concocted by him!
Mrs. Xing's lips moved and she was about to speak in agreement.
Jia Heng suddenly shouted: "This is the Hall of Rongxi, and the heroic spirit of Duke Rong is watching you!"
Jia She and Mrs. Xing: "???"
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang: "..."
Jia Mu's face changed, and her heart was filled with turmoil.
