Zhu Jinghong was struggling to explain, but Zhu Jingyuan and his wife on the other side had already returned to the house by car.
It was late at night, but Prince Rui and his wife had no intention of sleeping. Instead, they came to the study to sit alone.
"It's just a shame today!"
"If we really let the old man investigate the Jia family strictly, our problem will be settled!"
Chen Zhi was in a depressed mood, but saw that Zhu Jingyuan didn't say a word, so he was dissatisfied and said: "You should say something!"
"It's already like this, there's no point in saying more, what matters is what to do next!"
"The old man doesn't want to touch the Jia family. It's useless no matter how much you and I say. Do you really think the old man doesn't know our thoughts?"
At this point, Zhu Jingyuan sighed: "I can't pass the mother's test, let alone the old man's test!"
Chen Zhi also agreed with this, and she said with regret: "In this case, we were too hasty!"
"The reason why I was born with a jade in my mouth was wasted!"
The Jia family's trick of "being born with jade in one's mouth" had been known to Prince Rui and his wife as early as Yuanchun, not long after she married into the Prince's Palace, but they had resisted taking advantage of it.
This time, with the disastrous defeat of the prince in Jinling and the impeachment of courtiers at home and abroad, Zhu Jingyuan thought of taking down the prince in one go.
But I heard Zhu Jingyuan pick up the tea cup and say slowly: "There will be a lot of fun in the court meeting in two days, so don't be in a hurry!"
Today's Ming Dynasty holds a court meeting on the first day of each month. Although it is a ceremonial meeting, some practical matters will also be discussed.
"Let's not talk about the Great Court Meeting, but there is something I should pay attention to!" Chen Zhi said slowly.
"What's the matter?"
"You have to be more careful about wooing Old Thirteen!"
"If he helps us speak for today's matter, how will the prince be able to spend tonight safely?"
Zhu Jingyuan nodded and said, "You have to find a chance to prepare things according to his preferences, don't you think?"
"Tonight's work has been wasted again!" Chen Zhi was helpless.
…………
As for Jia Baoyu, he fainted and was sent to the palace gate and handed over to Jia Lian who was waiting outside.
"Thank you, father-in-law. I wonder what happened to my brother?" Jia Lian was full of doubts.
The leading eunuch sneered: "The Lord was furious and reprimanded your Jia family. Your brother was frightened and fainted!"
Just such a sentence, let alone Jia Baoyu, Jia Lian's heart tightened after hearing this, and his whole person was in panic.
There is no doubt that the information revealed by the eunuch is very important, and Jia Lian must express it.
"Thank you very much, father-in-law. You can use this money to buy tea!"
After receiving the banknote from the slave, Jia Lian handed it over respectfully. Naturally, these eunuchs would not be polite to him.
So Jia Lian asked a few more questions, and the eunuch who had received the money became more talkative and told him all he could.
After loading Jia Baoyu into the carriage, Jia Lian immediately asked his servants to ride back. He wanted to send the news back as soon as possible.
The carriage was swaying, and after leaving the imperial city, it rushed towards Ningrong Street.
Jia Lian looked worried, but he checked Baoyu's condition from time to time. The latter's face was also full of worry.
The slave who returned early had already spread the news back to the mansion, so that in the middle of the night, the core members of the Jia family were waiting outside the door.
"Coming, coming..." Wang Xifeng was the first to speak.
Everyone's spirits were shaken, and they all looked up at the street entrance, and saw a carriage slowly approaching.
The carriage came to a stop, and Jia Zheng and his wife immediately stepped in to greet them. Obviously, they were most worried about their son.
"Baoyu, my Baoyu!" Mrs. Wang's tone was filled with tears.
"Madam, Baoyu just fainted, nothing serious!"
Jia Lian got out of the carriage, jumped to the ground and hurriedly ordered his servants to carry him, and in a few moves he took Baoyu out of the carriage.
Jia Zheng also gathered around at this moment. Although he was usually strict with Baoyu, the worry on his face now was real.
"Bring it in quickly and let the doctor diagnose and treat you quickly!" Jia Zheng hurriedly ordered the people around him.
At this moment, Jia She also walked down the steps and asked Jia Lian in a cold voice: "Lian'er, what's going on?"
"Father, let's go in and talk!" Jia Lian bowed and saluted.
Everyone then entered the mansion together. They planned to discuss matters in Rongxi Hall, but unexpectedly, Jia Mu found out about the situation and asked them to enter the inner house to tell her.
I didn't want the elders to do the work, but Mother Jia had already given the order, so everyone in the Jia family had no choice but to go.
When she arrived at Jia Mu's courtyard, she had already recovered and was sitting on the soft couch in good spirits.
"what happened?"
Facing all the elders, Jia Lian replied: "The eunuch said it, and the Holy One was furious and reprimanded our family. Brother Bao was so frightened that he fainted!"
Hearing this, everyone in the Jia family was enveloped in panic, as if the end of the family had come.
It's not that they are timid, it's just that today's saints are rising up in the ranks, and they do a lot of killing and genocide.
Compared with the big cases in the past when the whole family was killed at every turn, and even tens of thousands of people were implicated, the destruction of the Jia family was not even a big deal.
"Why was the Holy One so angry?" Jia Mu asked immediately.
The Xue family's mother and daughter who were also in the house were also curious about this question. They also rushed over after Jia's mother fainted.
"Just because..."
Speaking of this, Jia Lian looked at Jia Zheng and his wife, and hesitated for a moment.
"You bastard, what time has it been? Why don't you tell me now!" Jia She scolded angrily.
"Only because of Brother Bao's piece of jade!"
"What's wrong with Jade?" Jia Mu asked quickly.
"Princess Rui said that it is rare to be born with a jade in one's mouth. It is strange to be born into a commoner's family. She suspects that our family has bad intentions and bad intentions..."
"What?"
Everyone in the Jia family was shocked. How could they bear such a crime? Everyone was so anxious that they almost jumped.
"What did the Holy One say?"
"Fortunately, Sister Yuanchun came up with an explanation and said that this was a rumor in the family, so the Queen didn't pursue it further!"
After hearing this, everyone felt a little more at ease.
Jia She looked at Jia Zheng, his eyes full of anger, and he was already thinking about how to label his brother.
He not only wants to regain control of the family, but also wants to protect the family on his own instead of letting Jia Zheng mess around.
At this time, Jia Mu asked: "What happened next?"
"Later, Prince Rui made a big statement... He said that our family used witchcraft to make the Thirteenth Master convulse and go crazy, and wanted to take away the Thirteenth Master's life for Baoyu!"
The method of witchcraft and evil spirits... Hearing these six words, everyone in the Jia family broke into cold sweat again, and they were even more frightened than before.
If this matter of using witchcraft to take away the prince's life is confirmed, the disaster of annihilating the family will definitely not escape.
"What happened next?" Jia Zheng couldn't sit still anymore and asked, wiping away cold sweat.
Jia Lian replied: "Fortunately, the Thirteenth Master woke up in time and came out to tell our family a few words in front of the emperor, so the Holy Spirit no longer wanted to pursue the matter!"
After hearing this, everyone in the Jia family relaxed a little, and everyone seemed to have taken a walk in the Palace of Hell.
Only Baochai was different. Standing behind her mother, she actually thought that what she had expected was true and that Zhu Jinghong would not target the Jia family.
"What happened next?" Jia Mu asked again.
"I mentioned it later..." At this point, Jia Lian looked at Jia Zheng again.
"Say!" Jia She was furious.
Jia Lian had no choice but to reply: "Later on, the incident of Baoyu eating rouge was revealed for some reason, which made the Holy Emperor furious... He reprimanded Baoyu and our family!"
"Second brother, look at... this is the good son you taught, how much trouble he has brought to our family!" Jia She's tone became more and more severe.
All the above-mentioned things happened because of Baoyu, which made Jia She angry and Jia's mother could not open her mouth to support him.
