Nowadays, Jia Zheng is the only one left in the court of Rongguo Mansion.
Now that Jia Zheng has also been imprisoned, no one in the entire Rongguo Mansion can stand above the court.
Rongguofu will accelerate its decline.
After Jia Mu thought for a long time, she said, "Send someone to ask Brother Huan to come over."
"Yes, ancestor."
Mrs. Wang's expression changed after hearing this.
Something happened to Jia Zheng. In fact, as long as Jia's mother wanted to save him, she would be able to save him.
If Jia Mu comes forward, she can protect anyone in Rongguo Mansion.
Of course, Jia Mu's face was only enough for her to save one person.
This little bit of face is only enough for her to use once, any more will not work.
Normally, Jia Mu loves this young son so much, but when something happened to Jia Zheng, Jia Mu did not choose to save him.
Instead, he sent someone to invite Brother Huan, hoping that Brother Huan would protect Jia Zhenglai.
It can be seen that Jia Mu's love for Jia Zheng has its limits.
In Jia's mother's mind, the title of Rong Guofu was higher than that of Jia Zheng.
Soon, the people sent by Jia Mu arrived at Ningguo Mansion. It turned out that Jia Huan was not at the house, but entered the Grand View Garden.
Qingwen went to the Grand View Garden in person to look for Jia Huan.
It is true that Jia Huan and Rong Guofu had a falling out, but Jia's mother sent someone to invite Jia Huan, and Qingwen did not dare to refuse on Jia Huan's behalf.
She could only tell Jia Huan about the matter, and it was up to the third master alone to decide whether to go or not.
Not long after, Qingwen came to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, where Jia Zheng was convicted and thrown into the prison. Jia's mother summoned her to report the matter.
After hearing this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but asked worriedly: "Brother Huan, I didn't expect that my second uncle was also imprisoned. I wonder if Rongguo Mansion can survive this disaster?"
Lin Daiyu was resentful towards the Rongguo Mansion. Mrs. Wang, a poisonous woman, had harmed her several times. How could she not be resentful?
But after all, Jia's mother is her grandmother, and Jia Zheng is her second uncle. They are always very kind to her.
Now that something happened to Rongguo Mansion, Lin Daiyu was also worried about Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Huan said with a smile: "Sister Lin, there is no need to panic. As long as our ancestors are here, we can ensure that nothing happens to Rongguo Mansion."
Yes, as long as Jia Mu is here, there will be no danger of the Rongguo Mansion being confiscated and destroyed.
If this attack on Rongguo Mansion was launched after Jia Mu was gone, then Rongguo Mansion would really be in danger.
Emperor Chongkang chose to move the Rongguo Mansion while Jia Mu was still there, because he had the intention of suppressing the Rongguo Mansion, and did not want to confiscate the Rongguo Mansion and destroy the family.
Hearing Jia Huan's words, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but feel relieved.
Jia Huan said, "I'm going for a walk. Sister Lin will wait for my letter."
Lin Daiyu nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Huan, go quickly."
Jia Huan nodded and walked towards Rongguo Mansion.
In fact, he really didn't want to get involved in Rongguo Mansion's affairs. Even the book friends in the comment section suggested not saving Rongguo Mansion and letting them fend for themselves.
But this time, he still had to go.
Who is he? But Jia Sheng is a loyal and good man whose promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold.
After his master, Master Zhao, was imprisoned, he was a very loyal, filial, pure and kind person, regardless of his own future, and went to seek medical treatment on his wife's back.
Now that something happened to his own father, could he remain indifferent and stand by?
This goes against his character.
Furthermore, the laws of nature and ethics also dictated that he must go through this journey.
Jia Zheng may not be a good father, but he is still good to Jia Huan. When Jia Huan grew up, he at least fulfilled the responsibilities of a father.
In any case, he was not allowed to sit idly by.
Not long after, Jia Huan came to Rongqing Hall.
After meeting Jia's mother, Jia Huan asked with concern: "Ancestor, you must take care of yourself. You are the anchor of our Jia family! As long as you behave well, even if there are storms, the Jia family will be safe." "
Hearing Jia Huan's words, Jia's mother couldn't help but shed tears.
Among the descendants and grandchildren of the Jia family, Brother Huan is the only one who knows how to use them.
Others are just for eating, drinking and having fun.
Mother Jia couldn't help but said: "Brother Huan gave me some advice years ago. I regret that I didn't listen to Brother Huan's advice and actually caused such a disaster for our Rongguo Mansion."
"Now your father has been arrested and imprisoned, and thrown into a sky jail. It's useless to expect anyone else. Most of the day has passed, and no one from your relatives or friends has come to the door, which shows the warmth and coldness of people."
"Now I can only count on you, Brother Huan."
Jia Huan couldn't help but said: "What my ancestor said, this is what I am bound to do. Ancestor, I will go to the palace to see the saint right now and intercede for my father. I only hope that my filial piety can impress the current saint!"
Hearing what Jia Huan said, Jia's mother became even more moved.
She couldn't help but say: "Brother Huan, what happened to Yu'er is indeed what I did wrong. Just because I'm old and old, don't argue with me, an old woman. Old woman..."
Before Jia's mother could finish speaking, Jia Huan hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Why did our ancestors say this? My grandson naturally knows that this matter was not our ancestor's original intention."
"Let the past be bygones. Grandpa, please rest in peace. I will go to the palace for a while."
After that, Jia Huan stood up and left.
Behind him, Jia Mu sighed.
Jia Huan, who walked out of the house, sneered.
Now that I've been used, I'm here to apologize?
Don’t you know you did something wrong already? What were you doing earlier?
Jia Huan shook his head, got on the four-wheeled carriage, and headed straight to the palace.
When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Jia Huan handed over a sign asking to see him.
Jia Huan didn't think he had much face in front of Emperor Chongkang, nor did he think he could really save Jia Zheng in this situation.
But he had to make this gesture.
Not long after, Jia Huan was invited into the study room.
"At the end of the day, I will see your Majesty. I wish your Majesty good luck and good health."
Emperor Chongkang said: "Jia Aiqing, come to your senses quickly. Come and give me a seat."
Jia Huan stood up and sat down.
Emperor Chongkang asked again: "Jia Aiqing is coming to see me now, but what's the problem with the Red Flame Army?"
At this point, Emperor Chongkang turned around and said, "By the way, Dai Quan, don't forget to get a sign for Jia Aiqing. From now on, Jia Aiqing will enter the palace without permission."
Dai Quan quickly nodded in agreement.
Jia Huan hurriedly knelt down to thank him, and then said: "Your Majesty, the reason why the general is here this time is not because there is something wrong with the Red Flame Army."
"The general is here to plead guilty for his father. The father of the general failed the emperor's favor and hid the property of the Zhen family in Jiangnan. The general does not dare to tell the difference for his father."
"I only want to use my title and my military position to atone for my father's sins! If it's not enough, I'm willing to sacrifice my life to be punished on my father's behalf!"
Snapped!
After Jia Huan finished speaking, Emperor Chongkang couldn't help but became furious and couldn't help but slam the table.
"How presumptuous! Is the title I bestowed upon you meant for you to trade with? What is your military position? Is it like a child playing house? Just don't want it if you don't want it?"
Hearing Emperor Chongkang's anger, Jia Huan couldn't help but feel unsure.
He was not afraid of Emperor Chongkang's anger, of course, because Jia Huan could tell that Emperor Chongkang was not really angry.
He quickly apologized in panic and said: "I'm so scared. My father is still suffering in the prison. My heart is like a knife piercing my heart. I lost my sense of proportion for a moment. I hope your majesty will forgive me!"
"It's just that as a son, how can anyone sit back and suffer with peace of mind? I still beg the emperor to allow me to take the pain on my father's behalf."
Emperor Chongkang said with emotion: "Jia Aiqing is indeed the most pure and filial son. Jia Aiqing's filial piety can be touched by heaven and earth! If I don't help him, wouldn't I become a foolish king?"
"Forget it, I will issue an order to punish the Rongguo government to double the hidden property of the Zhen family, remove Jia Zheng from his official position, and make him study at home, cultivate his character, and think about his mistakes behind closed doors."
"After Jia Aiqing gets out, she can go to Tianlao to pick up her father from prison."
After hearing this, Jia Huan shouted for the Holy Emperor. He was so moved that he burst into tears and thanked him endlessly.
Even Emperor Chongkang's eyes turned red when he was moved.
He couldn't help but say: "Jia Aiqing, if you work for me, as long as the errand is done well, I will not treat you badly, let alone your Jia family."
Jia Huan expressed his determination again and again, vowing to dedicate himself till death, thanked him again and again, and then bowed out.
After coming out, Dai Quan handed Jia Huan a sign with a smile.
Dai Quan's attitude towards Jia Huan was three points more affectionate than before.
After leaving the palace, Jia Huan gradually calmed down.
What he did in the imperial study just now was not acting, but showing his true feelings.
As an emperor, Emperor Chongkang knew countless people. How could he be deceived by just playing tricks on the spot?
If you want to move others, you must first move yourself.
Just now, Jia Huan was really moved to tears, her emotions were heartfelt, warm and sincere.
Of course, a little bit of substitution was used in the middle.
At this moment, Jia Huan also reacted.
From the beginning, Emperor Chongkang was only prepared to remove Jia Zheng from his official position, but was not prepared to actually send him to prison.
When he left, Emperor Chongkang just did a favor, gained his own gratitude, and made a lot of good stories about the emperor and his ministers.
Jia Huan believed that by tomorrow, he would not hesitate to use his title to save his father, and he would not hesitate to show his filial piety with his body. The fact that the Holy Emperor was moved by his filial piety and released Jia Zheng would surely spread throughout the imperial city.
Emperor Chongkang is indeed an old yin, he is really good at playing tricks!
Soon, Jia Huan came to Tianlao.
With Emperor Chongkang's handwriting, Jia Huan traveled unimpeded and was soon led to Jia Zheng's cell.
Jia Zheng's treatment in Tianlao was pretty good.
The jailers in Tianlao are all a group of people who are accustomed to watching everyone's words and looking down on others.
If the crime is serious, he will definitely not be able to get out of prison, and if there is no one to take care of him, he will definitely be placed in the worst cell.
And those who are just going through the motions temporarily, or have someone to take care of them, will be treated much better.
Jia Zheng's crimes may have been serious or minor, but he has not yet been convicted. Moreover, Rongguo Mansion is considered a high-ranking official in the capital.
Therefore, the jailer did not dare to neglect Jia Zheng and sent him to a relatively clean and tidy cell, and also enjoyed the treatment of a single room.
In just half a day, Jia Zheng became extremely haggard and suddenly looked much older.
Seeing Jia Huan come in, Jia Zheng hurriedly asked: "Brother Huan, why are you here?"
Jia Huan said respectfully: "My father was frightened. The boy went to the palace to plead for his father. The emperor was grateful for his filial piety and pardoned his father's crimes."
"However, the Rongguo Mansion needs to pay twice the amount of silver to hide the Zhen family's property, and my father's official position is not guaranteed. From now on, my father will study behind closed doors at home."
After Jia Huan finished speaking, Jia Zheng couldn't help but kneel down on the ground to thank the palace: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Jia Huan helped him up, and Jia Zheng sighed: "Being an official for my father also has a bad mind. Now that I am out of the cage and studying behind closed doors, it is as I wish."
"It's just that Huan'er, what you did in the palace will not be as light as you said. Please tell me about your experience in the palace."
While helping Jia Zheng out, Jia Huan carefully described what he did in the palace.
He doesn't have the habit of doing good deeds anonymously. When he does good deeds, he needs to let the other person know. Otherwise, how can others appreciate him?
After Jia Zheng listened to Jia Huan's story, he couldn't help scolding him: "Huan'er, you are so confused! How can you think of using your title and your military position to atone for your father's sins?"
"How can my father's life be worth this? Fortunately, Your Majesty is wise and did not follow what you said. Otherwise, my father would have died and he would not have the shame to see his ancestors."
Jia Huan said sternly: "My father's words are wrong. As a son, the body, hair, and skin of a person are the responsibility of his parents. As long as he can save his father, it means a title and a military position, so what if I use my life?"
Jia Huan's words moved Jia Zheng to tears.
He couldn't help but said: "Okay, okay! Cheng is the unicorn son of my Jia family! As long as you are here, the Jia family will not decline!"
As Jia Zheng sighed, Jia Huan helped him get into the carriage and went straight to Rongguo Mansion.
After getting off the car, the maids and women had already passed the news to Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others.
As soon as Jia Zhengcai entered the gate of Rongqing Hall, he saw Jia Mu coming out tremblingly to welcome him.
Jia Zheng knelt down on the ground with tears streaming down his face and said, "It is the son's fault that he makes his mother worried. The son is frightened!"
Jia's mother walked over quickly, pulled Jia Zheng up from the ground, and said with tears: "Okay, okay, just come back! Come in and talk."
A group of people entered the house and after everyone sat down, Jia Mu asked how Jia Zheng came out.
Jia Zheng then narrated the story of how Jia Huan entered the palace, how he used his title and official position to pay for his crimes, how he was willing to sacrifice himself, and how he finally moved the emperor and pardoned him.
After hearing this, everyone in the room was amazed at Jia Huan's pure and filial piety.
Everyone was in admiration, and Jia Mu looked at Jia Huan with increasing satisfaction.
Even Mrs. Wang had a look of gratitude on her face.
Jia Zheng looked around the room and couldn't help but ask, "Where's Baoyu? Why don't you see anyone else there?"
Jia Zheng was arrested and imprisoned, and the entire Rongguo Mansion was in panic.
Two girls, Tanchun and Xichun, came over. The Jia family suffered a disaster, and the family should have overcome the difficulties together.
But Jia Baoyu was not in the room.
His own father was imprisoned and his legitimate son was nowhere to be found, while his bastard son was willing to die in his place.
This comparison makes a judgment call.
Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others paid no attention to Jia Baoyu because they were worried about Jia Zheng.
I also felt something was wrong at this moment.
Mother Jia hurriedly said: "He was still here just now. I think he went out for something unknown. He will come to greet you later."
No one in the room dared to say a word.
They didn't see Baoyu all day today. They heard that he went out early in the morning.
I don’t know where it went. (End of chapter)
