Jia Rong, who had memorized "Peach Blossom Spring" all night, slept soundly in the study and had no idea what was happening outside.
The poor Jin Yiwei who was caught did not dare to reveal his identity at all, so he was beaten abruptly. Because he knew that once his identity was exposed, not only the 'Jia Rong' in front of him would not easily bypass him, but even Master Qianhu of the Yangzhou Branch of Jinyi Division would not let him go.
Unfortunately, he thought differently.
This fake Jia Rong is not easy to deal with. He even beat him up and didn't feel angry. He also asked the men to pay back all the money Jia Lian spent here, otherwise they would be arrested in the Yamen to see the officials.
"The Jin Yiwei forced women from good families and defrauded the people of their money." 'Jia Rong' and the people around him chuckled and said, "If this matter is leaked, the Yangzhou branch guard of the Jin Yi Division will suffer a lot."
A man in the back dressed as a boy said: "These people have received holy orders and are on official business in other provinces. Because the local officials are in awe of them, they do whatever they want in the local area. They should have been cleaned up a long time ago. Today, our brothers encountered them, so count them." Tough luck.”
In the Yangzhou branch of Jinyi Division.
One person hurriedly reported: "Things are bad. The woman was arrested by Jia Rong, and she also injured a brother in our guard."
"what happened?"
"Early this morning, Jia Rong led a group of boys out and went straight to the alley where Jia Lian once lived. He arrested the woman and a brother who was guarding the place. Now the two have been sent to the Salt Transportation Department We have gone to the Yamen, it seems that they already know that everything was planned by us."
Qianhu frowned and nodded slightly. He had a very bad feeling. After thinking for a while, he asked: "Both Jia Rong and Lin Ruhai went to the Yanyun Division Yamen today?"
"Jia Lian was taken away by the night watchman yesterday and was picked up by people from the Lin Mansion early in the morning. Therefore, Lin Ruhai never left the house. It was just that Jia Rong was jealous and sent the man to the Salt Transportation Department. After sending him to the Salt Transportation Department, he dismissed the chief and ran off alone. Went to the brothel to have fun."
"Then why are you back?" Qianhu asked, "Since we have found out Jia Rong's whereabouts, why not continue to keep an eye on Jia Rong?"
"Jia Rong is having fun in a brothel not far away. Several brothers are guarding outside. Only because of his humble position do he dare to come over and report the news."
Qianhu nodded and said: "Don't worry about the person who was arrested. Since he was arrested and sent to the Salt Transportation Department, not to the Yangzhou government office. According to his idea, he must wait for King Zhongshun to return to Yangzhou and let the prince make the decision. If he can be established With great efforts, King Zhongshun will not be able to control us. Continue to keep an eye on Jia Rong. Once you find Jia Rong in contact with a suspicious person, immediately send a signal to the nearby Jin Yiwei to arrest the person."
"Catch who?"
"After arresting the salt gang dealers, do you still want to arrest Jia Rong?" Qianhu cursed, and then said: "We must snatch that book back, and we can't let the people from the guard office get it first."
…………
"Succeeded?" In the study room, Brother Rong, who had just been woken up, looked confused. He opened the small mattress covering his body and asked doubtfully: "What are you talking about?"
"Still want to bluff me?" Wang Xifeng stood in front of Brother Rong with her hands on her hips and sneered: "I saw the spring on that little hoof's face this morning. How dare you say that you didn't do anything good with her last night?"
"There's no such thing as a good thing, but we just brought him together... and recited an eternal famous poem." Brother Rong laughed. Pick it up yourself and give it away with Baochai, which is called recitation for short. She said shamelessly, "Aunt Bao must have seen that I am willing to make progress and study and learn literature, so she is happy."
Wang Xifeng sneered and said: "Aren't you happy? She just met me, and she asked me to discuss the future affairs of the back house. She said that Brother Rong is a person who does big things, and the back house is a world for women. From now on, we sisters We need to work together to take care of the back house. Damn, she deserves it too?"
After listening for a long time, Jia Rong understood the reason why Sister Feng was unhappy. At this moment, she came over to ask questions. Not only was she worried that Xue Baochai would take away her power, but it also made her feel like she couldn't control the back house.
Brother Rong took her hand and sat down in his arms.
"She also has good intentions, why is she so angry?" Jia Rong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She had already guessed that Wang Xifeng would not cooperate. He said, "It's ridiculous for you sisters to be at odds with each other every day. How about Feng'er just treating me as caring about me and not arguing with her?"
Wang Xifeng snorted, "Why are you so kind-hearted and I am evil-hearted?"
"Feng'er naturally has a good heart. Who's dirty with you? I'll go over and punish her right now." Brother Rong comforted her and rubbed Wang Xifeng's jade hands.
Wang Xifeng shook off his hand, broke away from his arms and stood up.
A pair of beautiful eyes stared at Brother Rong and hummed: "Is it possible that I am a jealous person? Do you want her to teach me a lesson like a shameless girl? You have left Shenjing and really regard yourself as the emperor. Let Can Baochai, the newly favored Minister of Rites and Minister of Hubu, search for beauties from all over the world for you?"
Forehead……
"Such treacherous words should not be said nonsense." Brother Rong covered her mouth and asked, "What on earth did you say?"
Wang Xifeng sneered: "What else can I say? She came to me to discuss the matchmaking with you and Sister Lin. See what she means, one Sister Lin is not enough, she also wants to go to my Wang family to find a woman for you."
Is there such a thing?
It's completely unlike what Xue Baochai can say, let alone what she can do.
Brother Rong asked carefully and found out that Baochai didn't mean this either. It's just that this girl Baochai actually thinks of herself as Aunt Rong after having a heart attack last night. I came up with an idea to move around more with the Lin and Wang families, so that Brother Rong can be taken care of by the Lin and Wang families in the future.
What a huge misunderstanding.
He said: "Isn't this the same as Feng'er's original idea? She has a shallow vision, so why should she have ordinary knowledge? If you ask me, it is better to rely on outsiders than to rely on yourself. No matter how powerful my relatives are, can they still make me the Duke of the country? They all do it themselves. No, it’s okay to move around, and there’s no need to rely on relatives all the time.”
Sister Feng's face turned red, and when she saw Brother Rong reaching out to hug her, he kicked her over without any mercy.
"Be honest. She thinks the same as me. When she says she has a shallow vision, isn't she also saying that I have a shallow vision? I can't see how eager she is for quick success, and she even advises me to stop being jealous. If you don't teach her to teach me, what else can it be? .”
It was her idea that Qin Keqing went to the Wang family to pay New Year's greetings, and it was Wang Xifeng who asked Mrs. Wang Ziteng to teach Qin Keqing the rules. Wang Xifeng felt that she had done a lot, but this person didn't appreciate it. She blamed herself for being jealous.
Brother Rong held the struggling Sister Feng in his arms and said softly: "How can you let her teach you how to stop being jealous? I like Feng'er's pungent taste. It also has a bit of sour jealousy in it. It is the most fragrant and best." Feng'er."
Nausea, weird feeling.
Wang Xifeng felt at ease, but did not struggle any more. His aura gradually dropped, and he said unwillingly: "There is no way she deserves my jealousy."
this problem……
Brother Rong couldn't help but look down.
"You bastard, you actually think about those things." Wang Xifeng's face turned red and she became even more angry. But before she got angry, she begged for mercy: "This is the Lin family's study, why are you fooling around? I just came here to do that, wait a while..."
"What are you thinking about?" Brother Rong smiled. No matter how impatient he was, he wouldn't worry about it these days.
To be honest, I was very happy last night. Although he was a rough man, it would take him a while to walk on the narrow path. Otherwise, there would be no need to go so late last night.
Considering Baochai's feelings and her initial nervousness, it was really...
Wonderful, indescribable.
This is the trouble of rough people and adults.
Thinking of this, this bastard actually felt a little excited. Seeing Wang Xifeng's half-annoyed and half-resentful look again, I found it charming.
"Oh, it's already like this and you still don't admit it."
Brother Rong said shamelessly: "Wherever you are, you have seen even tougher moments."
"Pooh."
"Has Feng'er's anger gone?" Brother Rong sighed, took her hand and said, "I woke up this morning and had to explain everything about Uncle Lian again. I'm still dizzy now, so let me stay in this room. Would you like to rest a little longer?"
After hearing this, Sister Feng became even more annoyed and said, "I asked you to sneak some food last night, but she woke up in high spirits early in the morning. Who can blame her?"
"Blame me, blame me." Brother Rong said helplessly.
"It's good to know." Wang Xifeng smiled and grabbed it, warning: "If you do this next time, I will stop you from stealing food."
"It was inconvenient for you to find me yesterday." Jia Rong said dullly.
"You're blaming me. Who made a fuss with Ping'er in the wing? It made Ping'er catch up on his sleep at noon."
"You still don't know what your uncle is capable of?"
"Pooh!"
Wang Xifeng chuckled and took advantage of him. Naturally, this matter would not go away so easily.
"What do you want?" After asking casually, Brother Rong suddenly frowned. After seeing Sister Feng's actions, he understood what this girl was thinking.
The bastard laughed, and all his sleepiness seemed to disappear for a moment. Immediately he opened his eyes and stared at Sister Feng's little mouth. He smiled and said, "Why be so cruel? Feng'er has a good way to guard against me."
"Um?"
Jia Rong said: "One person's energy is limited. I worked hard yesterday and have no energy this morning. If Sister Feng tires me out first, how can I have the energy to eat secretly?"
"You have a good idea." Wang Xifeng snorted and said, "They all protected you one by one. When I was sick, I didn't know who was coaxed into bed again."
"It's not impossible to deal with it." Brother Rong whispered, "Have you ever heard of the principle of keeping one's mouth secret?"
"Tight-lipped?"
Uncle Rong nodded and explained, "The hand and mouth are different, but they are all the same as the bottle."
Wang Xifeng's face was full of shame. The hand holding it was much lighter, and the tender skin on the face showed a light red color.
Jia Rong lowered his head and laughed secretly. Without looking up, I saw Sister Feng's eyes narrowing slightly, as if she was considering the feasibility of the matter. He hurriedly said: "Is Feng'er really planning on this?"
Wang Xifeng was a little embarrassed, gritted her teeth, and made up her mind.
"This is my uncle's study. If he comes in..."
Sister Feng rolled her eyes at this guy and said: "Don't provoke me anymore. Mr. Lin is in the backyard with the Lin family, so there is no time to come over. I know your bastard thoughts, and I will do what you want today. I want to stay at night I won't let you go if you mess with Baochai's little hoof."
Jia Rong was able to see through her thoughts and smiled. Said: "Feng'er treats me the best. Let's have a small family meeting tonight and I will give her a good lesson."
"Are you willing to do so?"
"I can't let you fight at home in the future." Brother Rong said with a smile.
Wang Xifeng was held in his arms, and her body gradually softened. Although I felt somewhat aggrieved, I thought that I had entrusted everything to this bastard. He has done everything, even if he is misunderstood by Baochai once, it doesn't matter if he suffers this grievance. As long as Baochai's hoof doesn't care about him, he can be fine and he will be proud of himself.
Sister Feng felt that her little hand was being moved around by the bastard again, and her face turned red.
"Good Feng'er, your blushing face looks so beautiful."
"Don't say these nice things to please me."
Brother Rong smiled and said good things to Sister Feng.
He found a chair against the wall and sat on it, then slowly stretched out his hand to pull Wang Xifeng over. In this way, even if someone comes in suddenly, they won't be discovered. After all, there is Qiang behind and a big table in front.
Sister Feng rolled her eyes and squatted down. Secretly gritting his teeth, he must make sure this bastard can't be a weirdo for a few days.
Fortunately, this was not Wang Xifeng’s first time trying it. She had played it several times before going to the palace to pay her respects. After playing for a while, I gradually became proficient.
During the heated exchange between these two people.
Jia Lian, who had been resting for half a day, missed the woman outside the house and didn't care about the injuries on his body. Asking over and over again if Brother Rong is back? Did you send the money over?
The people taking care of Jia Lian did not dare to disobey him, but they did not know the whereabouts of Uncle Rong.
Jia Lian had no choice but to drag his illness to Xuanli where Jia Rong lived.
"Brother Lian is looking for Brother Rong?"
"I dragged him to help with some things, so I came here to ask." Jia Lian was confused when he saw Baochai and Daiyu in the room, so he only asked outside the door.
"Is it important?" Baochai asked. She and Daiyu both knew that Brother Rong was in the study, but they were worried about disturbing Brother Rong, so they usually didn't bother him. At this moment, she saw Brother Lian coming for her, so she was worried that it was an urgent matter, so she might as well go to the study to inform him.
Naturally, it was difficult to tell Jia Lian these matters directly to his two sisters. I had no choice but to change my words: "If we wait for Brother Rong to come back, I can ask my two sisters to send a message and ask him to come to my room."
The two women naturally nodded in agreement.
Du Xue Baochai looked at the place where Jia Lian had just stood, secretly lost in thought. She thought it was Jia Lian who discovered what happened between Brother Rong and Sister Feng, and felt upset.
Lin Daiyu was the most sensitive among the girls. Seeing that Baochai looked wrong, she asked curiously: "In the past, Brother Rong and Brother Lian were not close to each other. When we come to Yangzhou, how can the second brother still ask Brother Rong to do something?"
"It doesn't matter, it's our business." Baochai came to his senses and chuckled, "The patterns of the large and small clothes have been painted. I'll call some female embroiderers over tomorrow. I'll wait for some day for my sister to change into something new made by Brother Rong. The clothes will surely dazzle him."
"I didn't draw it for him." Lin Daiyu denied it and then explained. "I just find it novel and interesting."
Baochai chuckled, seeing through it without saying anything.
Lin Daiyu looked at the paper on the case and sighed inwardly: I wish I could embroider it myself, but I don't know how long Brother Rong will stay in the house. I don't know what I look like when I wear these clothes.
…………
"Brother Rong?"
In the corner, Jia Rong, who was immersed in it, was suddenly startled, making Sister Feng almost kowtow.
"Is Brother Rong in the room?"
"Are you still awake?"
There was another knock on the door outside, and Brother Rong could tell that it was Baochai and Daiyu who were coming. He quickly tidied Sister Feng's clothes and couldn't help but frown. Didn't he ask them to come to the study if they had nothing to do?
Then he looked at Wang Xifeng, who was squatting, and it was okay for Baochai to see the sparkling look on his lips, but there was a pure girl like Xiao Daiyu outside. I scanned around the study room, but there was no place to hide.
The key is……
As he watched, the door to the study room was pushed open. Brother Rong looked at Sister Feng who was squatting below and hadn't gotten up yet, so he quickly pulled the small mattress next to him to cover his legs.
