After Jia Lian left, Jia Zheng immediately walked to the inner courtyard and ordered Baoyu to come to see him.
His own family knows his own affairs, and Jia Zheng knows that it is his own son who ignores the defense of men and women as the censor said.
Just to protect his face, Jia Zheng didn't say anything to Jia Lian.
Now that he has returned to the inner house, how could he not call that bastard over to punish him and give him a warning?
At this time, Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu were together. The two of them read the storybook with gusto and discussed a few words from time to time.
While the two were chatting about the plot, an attacking voice came from outside.
"Second Master, I asked you to go there!"
Hearing this, Jia Baoyu's good mood suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Xi Ren entered the house and pulled Jia Baoyu to leave.
"Sister Lin, you play by yourself for a while, I'll be back soon!"
In order not to worry Lin Daiyu, Jia Baoyu made a face when he walked to the door.
However, after he left, Lin Daiyu was still worried, so she asked Zijuan to go outside to inquire about the situation and get back to her if there was any news.
On one side, Jia Zheng was training his son, while on the other side, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng began to discuss the matter of cleaning up the family tradition.
"I have made many friends in the court. Why is it that only one impeachment memorial resulted in suspension pending further reference?"
"So much money is spent on socializing every year, but there is no one to help me!"
This was the truth in Wang Xifeng's heart, and she would feel unhappy if she didn't say it out loud.
Her words touched upon the most fundamental issue. It was all because of Zhu Jingyuan's instructions. No matter how good the relationship was, those who knew the inside story would not find ways to help him.
"Who knows, it's just a suspension of work, and it will be fine after the limelight is over!"
Jia Lian was nonchalant, which was very different from the fearful and uneasy look he had in front of Jia Zheng just now.
Wang Xifeng said: "To put it lightly, if we don't get the limelight, how will our family deal with it?"
She really knows the situation in the house and understands that she must strictly control it this time so that this crisis can be overcome safely.
While the couple was discussing, they heard a mother-in-law report from outside: "Second Grandma, all the stewards and the steward's wife have arrived in the outer courtyard!"
"I'll go tell them!" Jia Lian stood up.
As soon as he stood up, he was pulled, and then Wang Xifeng said: "Forget it, I'll go, those people are afraid of me!"
…………
After all this trouble, the Jia family was in a state of panic. Even Jia's mother, who was raised in the inner house, was alarmed at this moment.
"Send someone to see what the fuss is about!" Mother Jia looked dissatisfied.
She is a person who loves peace and quiet, and just wants to live her old life in peace. Now there is no peace in the house, but she has not received any news, so how can she not be angry.
Soon someone came to report: "Second Grandma summoned the stewards and said she wanted to clean up the family..."
"Publish the family, why are you making such a fuss? Let Feng Lazi come over and see me!" Jia's mother became more and more angry.
Soon Wang Xifeng came over and informed Jia Mu of the situation.
Only then did Jia Mu realize that such a big thing had happened at home, and she was so angry that she almost fainted.
Everyone was busy for a while before Jia Mu recovered. During this period, the two Jia Zheng brothers also arrived.
"Mom...are you okay?" Jia Zheng looked worried.
"What on earth is going on?" Jia Mu looked sad.
"Mother... this is not an easy matter!" Jia She said with a sullen face after glancing at his brother.
Jia Mu then asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Just as Jia She was about to speak, he saw a lot of girls and wives in the room, so he ordered: "You guys all get out!"
Everyone dared to neglect and filed out one after another, even Wang Xifeng was no exception.
At this moment, there were only three of them, mother and son, left in the hall.
"Mother, those impeached censors are all Liu Ye's people!" Jia She revealed the secret.
Jia Zheng was stunned. He had never studied this in detail, otherwise he would not be like a headless fly.
"Sixth Master's people?"
"Mom, you still don't understand? The second brother has been messing around these days, and the sixth master is already dissatisfied!" Jia She didn't save any face for his brother.
Jia's mother did not know anything about what Jia Zheng did, and she never expressed her position on it.
Now that trouble has arisen, she has to intervene no matter what.
"Sigh... I am not the one who should get involved in those things. Our family should be more stable!"
Jia Mu's words were the final word, which made Jia Zheng's heart feel cold.
He is also working hard for this family, but no one understands him and is willing to work hard with him.
"Yes!" Jia Zheng was frustrated.
………………
Like the Jia family, thousands of miles away in Jinling, the Xue family's inner house is also in a state of panic.
The Japanese pirates have been wiped out. The three Xue family members planned to leave for Shenjing today, but unexpectedly, a eunuch came to deliver the message.
The Thirteenth Master summoned him, and these words made Xue Pan weak in the legs. He could only suspend the idea of setting off, change his clothes and go to the palace to see him first.
"You bastard, are you causing trouble outside again?"
"Mom, my son has been staying in the house these days, how can he go and cause trouble!" Xue Pan quickly defended.
Aunt Xue asked with a cold face: "Then why did Master Thirteen call you over?"
"This...I don't know either!"
In fact, Xue Pan was more panicked than Aunt Xue, after all, it was him who was going to meet in person.
Xue Baochai said: "Mom, don't be too panicked. Brother, he really hasn't gone out these days. He will be fine!"
"Our ordinary family is related to the Tian family. If we are not careful... we will cause great trouble!"
"That day when the Thirteenth Master came to our house with his troops, I almost thought it was a calamity that would wipe out our family. Although we got through it safely, I still feel frightened every time I think about it..."
Hearing these words from his mother, Xue Baochai was silent because this was indeed the truth.
"No matter how you say it, our family saved Master Thirteenth last time in Longtan Mountain. He will never forget this affection!"
Aunt Xue turned her head and motioned to the girls in the room to step back. She just said in denial: "Friendship...if the royal family talked about this, so many people wouldn't have died!"
Although Aunt Xue was under forty, she had heard her husband discuss the inside story of the Donghuamen Incident in private and knew some of the "inside information".
In her opinion, the Huanghuangtian Family is the most cold-blooded and ruthless place in the world.
Baochai didn't answer. At this moment, she recalled the situation when Zhu Jinghong entered the house to rescue her that day in the other courtyard.
Although she had no relatives in the Tian family, she found herself deeply trapped.
It is human nature for a girl to be pregnant.
Xue Baochai, who lost his father when he was young, is particularly eager for a sense of security.
When Zhu Jinghong killed the bandits and saved her family's lives, it gave her a sense of security. How could he not make her fall in love with him?
What's more, Zhu Jinghong also wrote a poem for her...
Thinking of this, Xue Baochai blushed on his face and glanced at his mother with some guilt.
Damn it, damn it, how could I think of this... Baochai secretly cursed herself for being shameless.
Aunt Xue didn't notice anything strange about her daughter, and said with sadness: "This time I go to Beijing, although it is for your brother to fill the vacancy, I'm afraid it won't be possible!"
It can be seen that Aunt Xue does not have much confidence in her son's filling of the vacancy.
Even if you have money to donate to officials, if you don't manage the relationship well, you won't even be able to find a way.
"So you must choose the job of the princess's attendant!"
Although the Tian family is ruthless, they rely on their talents to become rich and powerful, so Aunt Xue is both afraid and unable to let go.
"Mom, I know!"
Xue Baochai nodded, but had other thoughts in his mind.
