Jia Mu and others played for most of the day, but did not see Jia Cong come back. I couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Xi Ren's mother was just seriously ill. It was enough to let Xi Ren go back. Could it be that he went there in person?
Thinking of this, she asked: "Brother Cong, this guy just called us here and ignored us. Do you know where he went?" Lin Daiyu said: "Old lady, we have been with you all the time, and we don't know about Cong." Where did my brother go? Maybe something happened temporarily. Otherwise, he would have come to accompany the old lady a long time ago. I will ask Zijuan to ask." After saying that, he sent Zijuan to Ningguo Mansion to see where Jia Cong had gone. .
Seeing this, Jia Mu nodded and continued to joke with everyone. She was quite happy today. The snow scene in the garden was indeed rare and refreshing.
Jia Cong even prepared a lot of precious dishes, which made everyone enjoy themselves. The only regret is that the host Jia Cong did not accompany everyone and never came back after going out.
Everything was done by Youshi and Qin Keqing, who were arranging things at the side. Ping'er is now pregnant and has become a priority protection target. In this kind of weather, she is not allowed to go out to work. If she accidentally falls, she will be in big trouble.
After a while, Zijuan came back, and she came back with Yuanyang. Arriving in front of Jia Mu, Zijuan bowed and said, "Old lady, the Duke of Guo is not in the mansion. He was called into the palace and has not come back yet." Everyone heard this and said in unison. I'm stunned, why did this good person get invited to the palace?
Aunt Xue felt happy and thought to herself, Your Majesty is not going to use Brother Cong again, that would be great.
In her eyes, although Ning Guogong's title was respected, it would be better if he could have more authority.
After hearing this, Jia's mother was also a little confused. He knew something about Jia Cong's situation, but he didn't understand why Jia Cong was called into the palace.
If you really want to be promoted, an imperial edict will be enough, so there is no need to enter the palace. He looked at Yuanyang who came with him and asked: "Yuanyang, do you know why brother Cong was called into the palace?" Yuanyang said: "Old lady, the specific reason is not very clear to me. I just heard that In the morning, the soldiers from the mansion went out, but our master didn’t explain anything, and it was hard for us to ask. I heard from Qingwen that when she went out with her master, she met some unscrupulous people, and they dealt with them. Yes." Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai and others couldn't help but feel worried after hearing this.
Jia Cong was called into the palace by the emperor. It must be because of this incident. I don't know if he will be okay.
When Jia Mu heard this, she couldn't help but frown. This period of time has been quite stable, but I unexpectedly went out for a trip, and something happened again.
Although she didn't know what happened, but even the soldiers were dispatched, someone must have been unlucky.
Even the emperor has come forward, so naturally it cannot be a trivial matter. I just don’t know if that guy Cong Ge’er can sort things out.
Jia Mu sighed and said: "Hey, it's better not to get into trouble." Seeing everyone looking worried, Wang Xifeng said: "Old ancestor, what kind of worries are you? With Brother Cong's ability, I'm sure Everything will be fine, just rest assured." Wang Xifeng is not too worried about Jia Cong, she knows very well what this brother-in-law is capable of.
Over the years, he has never suffered from anyone else. No matter what you do, you must make a decision before taking action, and you will be confident in everything you do.
She admired and admired Jia Cong, her brother-in-law very much. After listening to Wang Xifeng's words, Jia Mu felt a little relieved. She also knew a little about Jia Cong's abilities.
Jia Mu said, "I'm still very relieved about Brother Cong's child, but caring about it will lead to chaos. I asked someone to wait in the house. When Brother Cong comes back, let him come to see me." Yuanyang said, "Old lady Don't worry, this slave will go back and wait. When our master comes back, we will ask him to see the old lady immediately." Jia Mu said, "That's fine, then you can go back and guard." Yuanyang agreed and went back. Go to Ningguo Mansion.
Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai stopped worrying after thinking about it for a while. The two of them knew something about Jia Cong, and they also knew that he was not a reckless person. No matter what he did, he should have a way to deal with it.
Seeing Xue Baochai's expression as usual and not worried at all, Xue Baoqin couldn't help but ask: "Sister, aren't you worried about your brother-in-law?" This person will be fine if he doesn't do anything uncertain, and we don't need to worry about him."
"Oh, I know, brother-in-law is really awesome." Xue Baoqin responded, and couldn't help but become more curious about Jia Cong.
I have heard before that this brother-in-law is very powerful, ruthless and murderous, and is called Jia Yan Wang.
In terms of business, he is also very powerful. He has almost a monopoly on soap and liquor. It can be said that he has a lot of money. He is the little god of wealth in the capital.
After meeting him, I found that this man was amiable, easy to get close to, and very kind to others. He was not as vicious or vulgar as I imagined.
It is hard to imagine that such a person is actually the legendary invincible warrior, the ruthless King Jia Yan.
This made the little girl even more curious. What kind of person is her brother-in-law?
When Jia Mu heard what Baochai said, a smile appeared on her face. This precious girl is calm, dignified, and capable of making correct analysis under such circumstances, which is indeed good.
He looked at his granddaughter Lin Daiyu again and saw that she was not in a panic. He couldn't help but smile. These two good children were taken over by that boy Cong Geer. It was really an advantage for him.
Pulling Daiyu to her side, she asked curiously: "Yu'er, aren't you worried about Brother Cong at all? Aren't you afraid that something will happen to him?" Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "Old lady, Brother Cong is very powerful. He told me that if he wants to leave, no one can keep him, so we don't need to worry about him. Besides, Your Majesty won't do anything to Brother Cong, and he might come back soon." Mother Jia He laughed and said, "Okay, okay, I don't believe anything will happen to brother Cong." As for Shi Xiangyun, Xichun, Tanchun, and Yingchun, they all went out with Jia Cong and saw some of Jia Cong's methods. Not too worried.
For a moment, the atmosphere became joyful again. ······Shenjing City, the residence of the Zhou family. Dai Quan stood in the court, looking down at the Zhou family members kneeling in front of him, with a trace of pity in his eyes.
Isn't it good to live a good life? Why bother with that King of Hell? He knew that the reason these people were still alive was all because of Emperor Longqing.
If Jia Cong hadn't been concerned about Emperor Longqing, he would have wiped out the Zhou family long ago. He knew very well what Jia Cong was like. Once he made a grudge, he would eradicate it without leaving any future troubles.
How could a person who dared to take action against the prince or the prince care about a mere relative.
What he was certain of was that as soon as Emperor Longqing died, the Zhou family would be doomed immediately. With His Majesty's physical condition, if he persists for another year or two, he will be able to bear the consequences, and then they will die.
Dai Quan coughed slightly and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty decrees: From today onwards, the grievances between the Zhou family and the Jia family will be wiped out. Both parties are not allowed to seek revenge again. If the Zhou family stirs up trouble again, you will bear all the consequences yourself." .Master Zhou, please accept the order and thank me."
"I obey the order and thank Your Majesty for your kindness." The Zhou family quickly accepted the order to express their gratitude and kowtowed in the direction of the palace.
The Zhou family did not dare to refuse Emperor Longqing's oral orders. Like Jia Cong, they could only accept the order. As for what you think in your heart, no one else can know.
Dai Quan said: "Master Zhou, please get up quickly. This is a routine matter for our family. Master asked us to remind you not to provoke Duke Ning Guo again. Duke Ning Guo said it in front of His Majesty. If you dare to provoke him again, , he won't be polite. When the time comes, His Majesty will not care about it anymore. I hope you can take care of yourself." Hearing this, the Zhou family's faces didn't look very good. That was the revenge of killing their son. Let's forget it. How? Can you be willing to do so?
However, the situation is stronger than the people, so we can only deal with it first and find ways to regain our position later.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trouble. Thank you, Manager Dai, for reminding me. The Zhou family will definitely comply with the order. Please also ask Manager Dai to report back to Your Majesty." As the head of the Zhou family spoke, he took out a banknote and stuffed it into Dai Quan's hand.
Dai Quan glanced at the denomination on it and felt happy. This old boy was quite generous.
Speaking of his son, Dai Quan was also a little worried. He was afraid that Jia Cong would not admit his fault and would take his son away, and then his work would be in vain.
If that really happened, there would be nothing I could do to stop him. That would be a huge loss for both my wife and my army.
I hope Jia Cong can keep his word and keep his word to himself. Dai Quan cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Master Zhou, our family will report back to you truthfully." "Thank you so much, Mr. Dai," said Master Zhou. After sending Dai Quan away, the Zhou family's expressions darkened.
Mrs. Zhou said: "Master, is this really the end of it? Did our Haoer's death go in vain?" The head of the Zhou family sighed: "Otherwise, what can we do? Since Your Majesty has intervened, then we must obey His Majesty What does it mean? Didn't you understand what Dai Quan meant? If we cause trouble with the surname Jia again, Jia Cong will attack us directly. Your Majesty is also reminding us." Mrs. Zhou said: "Master, that kid from the Jia family , Do you really dare to do this?" The head of the Zhou family smiled bitterly and said: "Madam, what happened this time was that the boy took the opportunity to go crazy, and more than a hundred people were killed by him. Do you still think he dare not take action against us? , that bastard is ferocious and cruel, there is nothing he can't do, we can only admit defeat now." Mrs. Zhou said: "Can't we go find the noble concubine again and ask her to come forward?" The head of the Zhou family shook his head. He shook his head and said: "Let's not cause trouble for her. Now that His Highness is imprisoned, the noble concubine has also been affected a lot. Besides, His Majesty has issued an order, so this is the only way for the time being." Mrs. Zhou sighed and said: "Hey, I'm really unwilling." The head of the Zhou family said: "I'm not willing either. It's a pity that I have no choice. It would be great if His Highness is fine. When he succeeds to the throne, he will deal with that kid Jia Cong. What do you say now? It's useless." Mrs. Zhou said: "Your Majesty is really cruel. He can even imprison his own son. It is so heartless." The head of the Zhou family said: "Don't talk nonsense. Although they are father and son, they are also monarchs and ministers. The royal family This has been the case since ancient times. I can only blame the second prince for his bad luck. He met Jia Cong, a bastard, and ended up in the current situation. Apart from this, you must not make the decision without permission and find someone to deal with Jia Cong, otherwise it will be terrible. It's really a disaster." Mrs. Zhou said, "I know, Master, I won't do anything random." When Jia Cong returned to Ningguo Mansion, it was already evening.
Seeing Jia Cong's return, Yuanyang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master, you are back. The old lady sent people to find you. Knowing that you had entered the palace, she was a little worried about you, so she asked you to come back and visit her. Master, it's nothing. Is it okay?" Jia Cong smiled and said: "What can happen? Don't worry, I will be fine. I can't bear to leave you little goblins." Yuanyang rolled his eyes and said angrily: "That's right. , there are quite a few goblins, and they have nothing to do with me. You should go to the old lady first, lest she wait impatiently." Jia Cong said: "Well, I'll go see the old lady first, and I'll follow you when I get back. Bye bye." He walked through the Grand View Garden and came to Jia Mu's room.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw that it was full of people. Lin Daiyu, Shi Xiangyun and other sisters were all there, as were Aunt Xue, Sister Feng, Li Wan and others. Almost all the people who usually came here were here.
Everyone was relieved to see Jia Cong back safely. Jia Cong hurriedly came forward to greet Jia Mu: "My grandson has sent greetings to the old lady, which makes her worried." Jia Mu chuckled and said, "It's good that everything is safe. I'm relieved to see you back. This What was the purpose of this time? Even the emperor was alarmed?" Jia Cong said: "It's not a big deal, it still has something to do with the Zhou family. Although I can't touch the Zhou family for the time being, I happened to find a small force supported by the Zhou family. There were about a hundred people, so I sent people to exterminate them. Because it was broad daylight, the news spread faster. Some censors accused me of killing innocent people indiscriminately. His Majesty called me over and asked what happened. This is what he said. "What happened." Jia Mu asked curiously: "Didn't Your Majesty blame you?" Jia Cong smiled and said: "Those people cheated, swindled, loan sharked, and did all kinds of bad things. If I kill them, I will be killing them for the people. I recorded them in advance." We gave some confessions and the account books we found, and gave them to His Majesty. His Majesty also knew about our feud with the Zhou family, and he didn’t want to take sides, so he acted as a peacemaker and let us cancel all the grievances between us and the Zhou family. , I can only obey, the Zhou family has sent Dai Quan to deliver the order." Jia Mu said, "That's good, everyone can live in peace, and no longer have to worry about Baoyu and the others being plotted against." Jia Cong Said: "Don't worry, old lady. I am in charge in the capital. No one will dare to take action anymore. Even if His Majesty doesn't say anything, the Zhou family will not dare to take action again. My deterrence is still great." Everyone put down after hearing this. After realizing it, Shi Xiangyun smiled and said: "The third brother is the most powerful, I know he will be fine."
