In Jin Xuanye's Yanenhou Mansion, tonight was certainly immersed in an atmosphere of reunion and joy.
Tonight is a good day for family reunion! Not only is Jin Xuanye, who has been away from home for many days, back, but "Shunzhi" who has been missing for more than ten years has also been sent back in a cage... This is really a great joy!
Moreover, Zhu Cixiang rewarded Xuan Ye with 5,000 taels of silver and asked him to continue to be the Marquis of Yanen!
This is truly a great gift from the Emperor!
In addition, there is another news that also makes the old grandmother Bumu Butai and Xuan Ye's brother Fuquan, who have been frightened at home for a long time, overjoyed.
This news is that Shunzhi is still alive!
"Madam (meaning grandmother in Manchurian), second elder brother, and eleventh uncle told me that the Ford Lama is my Amma, and my Amma is really not dead yet. He is now the great lama of the Junggar Kingdom, He is the junior brother of the Three Treasures Sengxiang and the Pearl Sengxiang. With their protection, I, Amma, can be at ease in the Western Region..."
Xuan Ye was in the inner hall, wiping tears while telling his grandmother Bumu Butai and second brother Fuquan the good news that Zhen Shunzhi was still alive.
"Third Brother," Fu Quan, who is 18 years old this year and is tall and strong, suddenly became excited, "Is Amma planning with King Sengge of Junger to raise troops to restore the Qing Dynasty? "
"Second brother!" the elderly Bumu Butai immediately scolded, "The walls have ears... Our house is now guarded by Jin Yi guards!"
Of course, the Jin Yiwei stationed in Yanenhou Mansion was to keep an eye on "Shunzhi" - this guy looked fierce, but he couldn't be allowed to run away, let alone commit murder in Yanenhou Mansion. So Zhu Chunjie, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, sent a dozen Tiqi to watch "Shunzhi" inside the Hou Mansion. However, they did not enter the inner house, and they probably would not monitor Yanenhou's family.
But...who can guarantee that no one will eavesdrop on their family's conversation outside?
Xuan Ye shook his head and whispered: "Amma is just trying to save his life. He doesn't seem to be planning anything... And he couldn't do anything when he had 100,000 troops, let alone today?"
In his opinion, his own Amma is still a bit timid!
"There are also Heilongjiang and Andong vassals!" Fuquan said, "Obai and Yue Le are loyal ministers, and they had to pretend to surrender!"
"Maybe..." Xuan Ye sighed, "But the general trend of the world is not clear after all, so we'd better be careful."
When he was talking about this, a woman's voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "Old lady, that Shaanxi man is making trouble..."
What Shaanxi people?
Bumbutai was also confused and said, "Aunt Sumala, come in and talk."
The door was pushed open with a creak, and an aunt who was nearly 50 years old walked in. She had decent facial features, but she was a little fat. She is the maid of Aunt Bumbutai. She followed Bumbutai to the Huangtaiji Palace as a dowry, and has followed her till now. Fuquan and Xuanye were both brought up with the help of Aunt Sumala.
So when they saw her coming in, Fuquan and Xuan Ye were respectful. However, Aunt Sumala didn't bother to salute the two young masters, and said hurriedly: "Three masters, go and have a look... That Shaanxi guy..."
"What Shaanxi people?" Fuquan asked.
Sumaragu said: "It's your Amma... No, no, it's not you who kisses Amma, but your fake Amma." l
It turns out that cheap Amma is causing trouble.
"What happened to him?" Bumbutai asked.
"He really thinks of himself as the sixth master (referring to Shunzhi). He wants food, drink and women..."
"Shaanxi people" of course refers to the fake Shunzhi with a Shaanxi accent.
In fact, this fake Shunzhi was not from Shaanxi, but a horse thief caught on the Beiting grassland. I don’t know what kind he was? I don’t even know what my surname is, but I only know a nickname, “Prairie Tiger”.
Because Anxi and Beiting brought many Shaanxi immigrants, Shaanxi dialect is very popular there, so he learned a Shaanxi dialect.
Xuan Ye stood up suddenly and said to Bumbutai: "Madam, let's go and see our grandson!"
Fuquan also stood up, "I'll go too... If this bastard dares to talk nonsense, I'll beat him to death!"
"Nonsense!" Bumbutai glared at Fuquan, "Beat him to death? Are you going to kill your father?"
"He's not..." Fuquan looked confused.
"Long live the Lord, that's all!" Bumbutai said to Xuan Ye, "Go with Aunt Sumala. Remember, talk to him properly and don't be on the same level as him. If he wants to eat well, get him some. It’s only a few days anyway.”
"My grandson knows," Xuan Ye replied, "my grandson will not be as knowledgeable as that thief."
...
"Kangxi, please come out! I'm going to be in trouble for eight lifetimes. I want to harm you, you idiot..."
When Xuan Ye followed Aunt Sumala to the courtyard where the fake Shunzhi was imprisoned, as soon as he entered the door, he heard someone shouting in Shaanxi dialect.
The words were definitely not nice, but Xuan Ye didn't quite understand them.
Seeing Kangxi coming, the people shouted even more fiercely.
"Son, come here quickly, uh, it's your Ada!"
Return Ada...Shunzhi thought: Can't I say Ama?
Xuan Ye also glanced at him and found that the unfortunate guy had come out of the cage and was sitting cross-legged on the ground in front of a small desk in the yard. His feet were still shackled, and behind him there were two guards in Jinyi carrying embroidered spring knives looking at him.
There was some food on the table, which was white flour steamed buns and an empty plate with some pickles on it.
Then the fake Shunzhi shouted and asked: "Where is the Roujiamo that was promised? Where is the mutton that was promised in the water basin? Also, where are the three palaces and six courtyards? Why don't you come out and let me choose?"
Xuan Ye really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could such a fool be tried in public? Do you want to show people a show?
At this moment, a young leader of the Jin Yiwei suddenly walked in quickly and loudly said to the fake Shunzhi: "Shunzhi, the lawyer your family hired for you has arrived!"
Litigator? family? Xuan Ye was stunned, he had never hired a lawyer for this Xibei guy! Could it be Fuquan? No way...this is not the real father.
He quickly asked the young leader of Jinyiwei, "Baihu, you mean the lawyer? Who invited you?"
The Jin Yiwei Baihu said: "His sister Ning Fei invited her...otherwise who else could be there?"
Shunzhi pretended to know the role of a litigator. Although for him, any litigator was useless, he was still very grateful. He immediately said: "I still feel sorry for my brother!"
Xuan Ye asked the officer: "I wonder if that lawyer has a name? Which lawyer does he practice?"
"The litigant is Mr. Ji from Ji Tiezha!"
"What? Ji Tieji? The former chief minister of Dali Temple?"
"Yes, that's him...he's the best lawyer in the world! With his help in exonerating, your father might be able to keep his body intact."
Fake Shunzhi was still dissatisfied, "Just leaving a whole body? Can't you keep him alive?"
"Don't be so evil. It's good to keep a whole body..." Xuan Ye also followed suit and enlightened his cheap father, "With all your crimes, Ling Chi is enough!"
…
Ji Tiezha is Ji Kun. Ji Kun, who is already in his fifties and almost sixty this year, took "early retirement" the year before last.
The reason why he wanted to retire early was because he could no longer progress in his career. Moreover, the Minister of Dali Temple is somewhat of a cool official... Others even gave him the inelegant nickname "Ji Tiezhi".
Ji Kun really didn't have much interest in such a position, and he was already successful and famous. He even had the title of Viscount Kenan, and he had made enough money (when he was in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he was Ji Yan Wang, an expert at confiscating properties!), and he still went through troubles. What?
Just call it a day and retire! However, he was also a person who was unwilling to be lonely. He continued to retire, picked up his old business again, and opened a litigation firm with a few former friends.
It's not about making a lot of money, it's just about having fun, and at the same time gaining a reputation - he can't let future generations regard him as a cool official, right?
Today, this famous litigator was entrusted by Ajige to defend the fake Shunzhi...
