Xianghua Garden was in chaos at this time, and Jia Rong and Xue Pan were already dead. Although there are many cases of fighting over oiran ladies in the capital, it is really uncommon for people to be beaten to death like today. Moreover, one of the two people who fainted was the eldest grandson of Ningguo Mansion, and the other He is the eldest son of the Xue family, and they are both rich and noble.
Standing nearby were several men in extremely gorgeous clothes, who were the culprits of this fight.
The person standing at the front is Ma Changbei, the grandson of Qi Muhou Ma Changlong, but the two people behind him are strangers. One of them is Shi Kaixuan, the second son of Ming Guangzhu, and the other is Chen Zifeng.
"Brother Ma, are we too harsh?"
Chen Zifeng looked at the two men, Jia Rong and Xue Pan, who were beaten to death by their men, with some worry in his eyes.
The centipede is dead but not stiff. Although the Jia family has declined, its influence in the court is still not weak. Although it is not as powerful as the others, it can still not be underestimated. In addition, another champion has emerged. , even if the branch office is established again, there is still a feeling of incense, and Chen Zifeng still has some scruples in his heart.
After hearing this, Ma Changqing actually regretted it a little, but just now the two grandsons Jia Rong and Xue Pan were so rude, he couldn't hold back when his head got hot.
However, Shi Kaixuan smiled coldly, his father was still lying at home! I heard from the imperial doctor that it would be impossible to stand up again in this life. Their family had almost become a joke to the Xunzong Group. The head of the family was directly beaten and became a cripple. This was undoubtedly for the Shi family, which was beginning to decline. To make things worse, the concubine was secretly dealt with by the old lady of the Shi family.
It is precisely because of this that the right family hates Jia Qi to the core, but Jia Qi is now too powerful. Not to mention the Shi family, even the Fan family, the cabinet minister of the dynasty, does not dare to provoke him. She had no choice but to swallow her anger when Gong called her. The Queen went to Emperor Mingkang to complain, but Emperor Mingkang gave her a ridiculous reason.
Under such a background, the Shi family would naturally not dare to attack Jia Xi again. Killing a third-grade Shuntian Prefecture Yin would not even frown, and they were afraid of being killed by the angry Jia Xi.
But the Fan family, the Shi family and other families all felt dumb, and the other members of the Wu Xun family were extremely disgusted with Jia Qi. Fan Yuanhe didn't even need to say a word. He immediately vented his anger on Jia's family. What happened today was just a few juniors who couldn't control their feelings and came to beat people.
Not to mention them, the Fan family even teamed up with Qi Muhou, Chen Ruiwen, and the Shi family to quietly collect the scandalous things about the Jia family. In a big family like this that has been running for more than a hundred years, who doesn't have a personality? The only thing that can't be kept secret is that it is not cleaned up cleanly.
If you don’t search, you don’t know. If you search, they will really pick up a lot of dirty things. Not to mention the unreliable masters in the house, and there is also a housekeeper there, all of whom are filling their own pockets and eating to their stomachs. Intestinal fat scares the entire family.
There is a lot of shit in Dongfu. As the patriarch of the clan, Jia Zhen's life is extremely corrupt. She even has more than ten maids, but they are helpless. In this era, maids have no human rights. They can do whatever they want. The master did whatever he wanted, but the second son Jia Rong gave them a lot of excuses, such as being in cahoots with his father's concubine, which made the family dumbfounded.
There were also things going on in the Xifu, the most eye-catching of which was that Jia Lian's wife asked Zhu Xifeng to lend money outside, and that Jia She once fell in love with an antique and bought and sold it, and Jia Lian hooked up with his father Jia She's concubine. , which is exactly the same as Dongfu, and the jade-wearing brother in the house said that the official in the court was a national thief.
······
"What are you afraid of? It's just a beating. If the champion Hou Jiachu doesn't beat the uncle, compared to him, we are just fighting in a small way, and no one is killed. Even the governor of Shuntian Mansion doesn't care. , what are they doing with the Jia family and the Xue family? At worst, we have to pay for the soup and medicine! If you can’t afford these few taels of silver, at worst, our Shi family will have to pay for it ourselves~"
Hearing Shi Kaixuan's motivating generals, Ma Changqing and Chen Zifeng were also a little excited. They are not very old, and they are at the time of passion. Who is not the master of Feiyang Jianhu in the capital on weekdays, but recently Jia Chu returned to the capital and sent all of them to the capital. It was so heavy that I couldn't even lift my head.
It's no big deal that Jia Qi beat the uncle. They just beat two prodigal dandies, and that's all they did. Now they're still scared. Maybe the emperor will still care about their mess.
"What are you talking about, Brother Shi? They are just two losers. There is no need for them. They can't make any waves~"
"Chang Qing is right. Since we are the ones involved in this matter, we can't let you pay for it yourself. Today we can let the brothers in the capital know that there are more than just young talents in the capital. Jia Qi is one person, and all of us are also famous heroes!"
Hearing this, Shi Kaixuan couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the two of them and said: "You two brothers are right! Although the champion is invincible on the battlefield, he doesn't know the way of officialdom. Not only did he beat the prime minister The faces of Assistant Fan Yuan and Master Fan also hurt the Queen's face, and then they hurt so many people on Jingxi Street. Almost all of them immediately offended most of the people who were officials in the court. It must be difficult to move even an inch!"
When Ma Changqing and Chen Zifeng heard Shi Kaixuan's words, they couldn't help but nodded softly. Getting around in officialdom is not something that can be solved by running amok. Don't they know the principle of being pushed down by others? Once you gain power, you will be domineering and offend others. If you kill a person, in the future, when the grace is gone, those who add insult to injury will be able to bury the person.
"That's right. The champion doesn't know how to stay together, but relies on his own merits to hurt others and die~"
Amidst the indignant discussions of several people, Liu Ju, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, received an oral order from the commander Xu Yuanhui.
As soon as Xu Yuantu arrived at Shuntian Mansion, he didn't say much nonsense. He took out a gold medal from his arms, held it high, and then said in a cold voice: "The Holy Father has said that Shuntian Mansion is the place where the capital administers justice to the people, and it is the face of the imperial court. , when handling daily cases, we must enforce the law impartially, and the administration of justice must be strict. We must not bend the law for personal gain, and we must give justice to the people. Qian Yiliang, the previous governor, is a lesson learned from the past. I hope Liu Ying, Ai Qing, will not disappoint me!"
Hearing Xu Yuantu's words, Liu Ju's body lying on the ground shuddered suddenly, his forehead was instantly covered with cold sweat, and his pupils shrank unconsciously twice. This was the first holy edict he had received since taking office. , I didn't expect it to be this. He knew exactly how the previous Shuntian Prefecture Yin Jiujing died. The meaning of Emperor Mingkang's beating was already very obvious.
After Xu Yuantu finished speaking, Liu Ju stood up tremblingly, confirmed the authenticity of the gold medal, and then asked cautiously: "I hope you can tell me, Your Majesty, what do you mean by this old man?"
Xu Yuantu chuckled, and the governor in front of him was a little interested, "Liu Tianren, the emperor doesn't mean anything, but I just want you to enforce the law impartially in the future. But today I heard that someone in Xianghuayuan took action to get jealousy, and this matter has reached the ears of the emperor. The emperor is very angry. During this period, the emperor was reviewing memorials every day and was so busy that he didn't even have time to drink tea. However, these people were drinking and having fun in the capital, becoming jealous, and even beating people!"
"These people are so dissolute and have no intention of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country. They are causing chaos in the capital at this time. If they are not severely punished, they will definitely attract people in the capital to imitate them. This will be detrimental to the country and the capital. The emperor said, God This period of time in prison is very peaceful, and it is a good place to face the wall and think about your past~"
······
In less than half a box of tea, the yamen from Shuntian Prefecture rushed to Xianghuayuan. Without saying anything, they arrested Ma Changqing, Jia Rong, Xue Pan, and others, and then walked away. Their movements were so fast that they didn't even notice. Let several people react. By the time they learned of the situation, they were already in the sky prison.
Over at the Jia Mansion, the two masters had just made up their minds to ask for an explanation, but they heard Xiao Si coming to report again, "Old lady, eldest master, second master, Uncle Zhen, what's wrong, Uncle Xiao Rong from Dongfu, Xue The uncle was taken away by the official of Shuntian Mansion and has been sent to the prison!"
Hearing this, Jia Mu and others couldn't help but be shocked, what's going on? Didn't it mean that Jia Rong and Xue Pan were the masters of suffering? Shouldn't it be the party who takes custody? How could they be arrested? ? What's going on when people are imprisoned in prison? Doesn't Shuntian Mansion have its own prison? How could he be sent there? Is the new governor of Shuntian Prefecture crazy?
Aunt Xue on the side heard that Xue Pan was being twisted and sent to the prison. She couldn't help but roll her eyes and fainted with fright. The prison was not a kind place. It was a place where serious criminals were detained. Generally speaking, prisons were closed. Very few people who got there came out alive.
Seeing that Aunt Xue was confused and everyone was busy working again, Jia Mu quickly asked: "What's going on? Did you see clearly that it's the person in charge of Shuntian Mansion?"
Seeing that the faces of the masters and the old lady in the room were all gloomy, Xiaosi didn't dare to be arrogant at all, so he hurriedly replied: "Back to the old lady, it was Butler Lai who confirmed the situation personally, and he was still there to inquire about it. What's going on? I just asked the younger one to come back and report the news~ And this time, not only the uncle in custody was from the house, but the people who did it were also sent away together! "
Hearing this, everyone in the room was stunned and detained. Was the governor of Shuntian Mansion kicked in the head by a donkey?
When they were discussing before, they already knew that the people who did it were the subordinates of several martial artists, including Shi Guangzhu's second son, Ma Changqing, and Chen Zifeng. They were not ordinary people. They were both founding martial artists. Xun's descendant.
The governor has detained all the people, so he is not afraid that they will cause trouble for him? As for the motive of the beating, several knowledgeable people in the house have guessed it. After all, there is Shi Kaixuan, Shi Guangzhu’s second son, Ma Changqing, and Chen Zifeng, who represent Qi Mu respectively. Hou Ma Changlong and the third-rank powerful general Chen Ruiwen, these two people have always been close to the Fan family, and now that they are causing trouble, they are going to break up with them.
After a while, Aunt Xue woke up again and turned around. She looked at Baochai and Mrs. Wang who were guarding Yiyi. Aunt Xue couldn't help but cry bitterly: "Sister! You must save this child Pan'er! Although you don't usually It’s a bit reliable, but Haosui is also the meat that fell from my sister! "
Seeing that Aunt Xue was a little agitated, Mrs. Wang quickly stepped forward to comfort her, "Sister, don't worry, the old lady and the master have already sent people to inquire. After all, we are the ones who were beaten, and the blame does not lie with us. No matter how big the world is, It’s no bigger than a word. You should have a good rest first. When something happens, I will send someone to inform you~~”
Then Wang Tianren ordered Baochai again, "Baochai, take good care of your mother. Now that something like this has happened, no one in the house wants it to affect the face of the house, and the old lady and the others will not sit idly by and ignore it." , just waiting for the news."
Baochai wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, stood up and responded softly, then sent Master Wang away, and then came back with a red look.
As soon as she came back, she saw her mother weeping secretly. She felt sad for no reason, and tears flowed down again. She hugged her mother and started crying.
Compared with the chaos in Rongguo Mansion, the Shi family, Ma family, and Chen family who took action were even more unbearable. When they found out the news, they couldn't sit still. After all, it was their family who took action. Now If someone is caught, what good can happen?
"This bastard actually dared to take Chang Qing, Zifeng and the others to prison without authorization. I would like to ask him who gave him the courage~~"
Ma Changlong slammed the table and said angrily.
To be honest, he never thought that things would develop to this extent. It was just a normal beating. Jia Qi also beat Versace the day before! That was the uncle of the state, and it was not a big deal. Why, as soon as he arrived at his place, the governor of Shunguan Mansion turned him away and sent him to prison.
In fact, when it comes to this matter, it is really different. Jia Chu led people to attack the mansion directly, and also sent people to surround the mansion. People in the mansion could not get out. It would be inappropriate to talk about such a thing again. No one reported to the government at all, because neither the Fan family nor Jia Qi could be managed by Shuntian Mansion.
If something like that happens, we can only wait for the Emperor's Holy Judgment. Unlike Ma Changqing, Chen Zifeng, Shi Kaixuan, Jia Rong, and Xue Pan, they are all white now. Back then, Chen Zifeng went to the border to make meritorious deeds and ruined the soldiers above Datong. , Emperor Mingkang did not delay him, even if it is good, praise is out of the question.
Not to mention the others, they are all white, so Shuntian Mansion can take care of this matter, and the place where the incident occurred is still outside. The people who passed by, and Xianghuayuan itself did not want to take this responsibility, so they went Shuntian Mansion reported to the official.
And this matter is not the intention of the governor of Shunguan Prefecture, but the intention of Emperor Mingkang. A lot of things have happened in the capital in the past two days, especially the two things done by Jia Chu, which have had a huge impact. Now Although the capital seems calm, in fact, rumors have already begun to circulate that as the controller of Dakang, he is well aware of this matter, so he plans to use this matter to scare the tigers and scare the monkeys. Let the many forces in the capital calm down and spend this new year well.
Soon, several houses got the inside information one after another from Fuyin of Shun Dafu, but this inside story was a bit heavy for their houses.
When Ma Changlong heard the news, he couldn't help but be stunned. It turned out that it was Emperor Mingkang's intention to twist the person and send him to the prison. In an instant, he thought a lot. What did Emperor Mingkang want to do? Are you planning to take action against them, or are you trying to warn them?
Tell them to be honest and not act recklessly.
This was the case for both the Shi family and the Chen family. After they learned the news, they all became eerily silent, and they all thought about Emperor Mingkang's intentions. What did the emperor want to do?
After the two mansions learned the news, their faces were full of doubts. The two mansions could not have been more honest during this period. What did it mean that Emperor Mingkang threw Jia Rong and Xue Pan into the prison? Jia Mu was sitting in Rongqing. Tang, her eyes were a little heavy, she was worried about one thing, whether Jia Rong and Xue Pan being sent to the prison would have an impact on Yuanchun's affairs. The two governments were sparing no effort to deal with Yuanchun's affairs, and even It also comes with an extremely important promise. If this matter ended up being dirty because of Jia Rong and Xue Pan, she would probably want to strangle those two people to death.
However, the matter has come to this, and the several mansions have no other choice. They cannot watch their descendants being imprisoned in the sky prison, so they also start to make connections. Qi Muhou and the others asked the Supreme Emperor, while the Jia mansion found them. Old Concubine Zhen is nothing more than begging for the Supreme Emperor.
But this time, the Supreme Emperor didn't say anything. He severely criticized Qi Muhou and the others, and then called Jia She into the Taihe Palace. He also severely criticized them, but it was not because of Jia Rong and Xue Pan. It was the forced buying and selling thing he had done before that almost scared Jia She to death. He did not expect that the Supreme Emperor would actually know about this trick, but he did not mention anything about the Xianghua Garden. .
In desperation, Fei's mother thought of Lin Ruhai and Jia Xi, but Jia Xi was not in the house at this time. After hearing this, Lin Ruhai shook her head helplessly, but in the end, for Jia Mu's sake, he I still went to Daming Palace.
About an hour later, Lin Ruhai came to Rongguo Mansion again.
"I've met my mother-in-law~"
At this time, only a few men and grandmothers from the two houses were left in Rongqing Hall. When they saw Lin Ruhai, several people also stood up to greet him.
After Lin Ruhai sat down, Jia Mu sighed softly, looking a little lonely. After all, the two houses did not resolve the matter in the end, but now they have blamed their son-in-law. This is a big deal for Jia Mu. A blow, and then she said softly: "Xian son-in-law, this matter is troubling you again, I don't know~"
Lin Ruhai cupped her hands and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, you are too polite. In fact, this matter is not a big deal. It's just that the imperial court has been busy with official affairs recently, and the Holy Father is busy with government affairs every day. He overheard this matter. Son, Long Yan was displeased, so he imprisoned them in the sky prison. The days would not be too long, only three to five days at most. The purpose was to make them calm down, be patient, study and practice martial arts, and be a rival. People who are useful to the country and the country, rather than idle young masters all day long, the emperor has high expectations for them!
"Actually, from another aspect, this matter can be regarded as a good thing. It is a blessing in disguise. Brother Rong of the Ningguo Mansion and Brother Pan of the Xue family were beaten and imprisoned. They have entered the cowshed, but now they have entered the eyes of saints. If they can really work hard and work hard in the future, they may not be able to soar into the sky!"
After hearing Lin Ruhai's words, everyone in the room had different expressions.
Mother Jia slowly breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Yuan Chun would be involved. Things had come to this point. What if something went wrong at this critical moment? It's such a shame.
Mrs. Wang also breathed a sigh of relief, not only because of her eldest sister's matter, but she also had an explanation for Aunt Xue. It only took three or five days for her to come over.
Jia She was thoughtful. When he came back from Emperor Taikang, he was thinking about what Emperor Taikang meant by investigating him. Why did he investigate him for no reason? Later, he thought about whether it was because Taikang knew about it. He was reminded of something, and when he thought about it, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. At this time, who would come to investigate Jia's house!
I am afraid that except for the Fan family and the Shi family, or today's Ma family and Chen family, I am afraid that no one will come to investigate them. The purpose of those people investigating the Jia family is self-evident. Before Lin Ruhai came, he arranged I recruited a few confidants and began to investigate the affairs at home, intending to nip these matters in the bud. If they were really exposed by those people, I am afraid that I would be disabled if not dead.
Now that he heard the information brought by Lin Ruhai, he was even more sure of his guess. Since Jia Rong and Xue Pan would only be locked up for three to five days at most, then the other families would probably be the same, and their intention was just to knock down the mountain and shake the tiger. Kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, let those families be honest, and at the same time let them be honest and stop making trouble. The meaning behind this warning is actually very clear.
After all, during this period, many major events happened in the court, and the officialdom even became turbulent, which was very detrimental to the rule of the court.
As for what Lin Ruhai said later, he didn't believe it at all. He was very self-aware. If Jia Rong and Xue Pan could really calm down and study literature and martial arts, it would be even more outrageous than an old sow climbing a tree!
In another prime minister's room in the West Cross Courtyard, Jia Baoyu had just returned from school. He was startled when he heard the pretender in the room talking about today's events. However, when he heard Daiyu coming again, he turned around. Just forget about these things. After all, for him, even a hundred Jia Rong and Xue Pan are not worth one sister Lin.
Just when he ran into the prime minister's room in a hurry, he was told by the women who were drinking and drinking here, Daiyu, welcome the spring. Tan Chun'er went to see Baodui. After all, what happened to the Xue family and the sisters had been getting along for so long, it was better not to even ask!
So Baoyu went from here to the Lixiang Garden. After about a tea time, Jia Baoyu came to the Lixiang Garden. Before he entered the door, he heard a small cry, but said that Baochai and Aunt Xue were worried about Xue Pan. Things have never been letting go since just now.
"Sister Bao, what's going on?"
Baoyu pushed the door open and saw the three women comforting Baochai and talking in a low voice.
When the girls saw Baoyu coming, they all stood up to say hello, but this time Daiyu was obviously far away from Baoyu. Even Yingchun and Tanchun could see it. The two girls looked at each other in confusion. , they discovered that Daiyu had changed a lot from Qianer, both physically and mentally, and they seemed to have gotten better.
Of course, there are reasons for this change. Whether it is body or temperament, it is all because of Jia Qi.
In fact, Jia Qi had considered the marriage proposal at the time. Although it was a bit hasty, he had his own reasons. He knew that Daiyu's temperament was very sensitive. Since the matter was already between you and me, it was better to settle it early. It also saves her from thinking wildly, otherwise she will be left with illnesses after finally recovering her health.
Of course, his feelings for Daiyu at this time were not that deep. Bi Jing had only met him once or twice, but he had done such things before, and with the blessing of the original work, he took advantage of the situation to put forward that sentence. , what Jia Qi said at that time was that reason is greater than emotion. After all, you have to take responsibility for what you do.
But Daiyu is different. Through the stories in the script, scenes and words, encounters and separations, she has expectations for Jia Qi, and these expectations all turned into something else when they met. An indescribable feeling. Speaking of which, compared with Jia Qi, Daiyu is more emotional.
So when Jia Qi brought up the engagement, she did not object, but acquiesced. It must be said that Jia Qi's bold attempt this time was a big advantage. If he didn't say it out, he would really fall in love with her in the future. I'm afraid that after seeing this fairy-like girl, I will be timid when the time comes, and the words come to my lips but I can't say them out.
When you really care about emotional matters, you often cannot express them. When you really express them and experience them carefully, you will suddenly find that you were in the same state of mind at that time.
"Sister Lin! Why do you treat me so strangely after we haven't seen each other for a few days~"
But Baoyu couldn't stand Daiyu's unfamiliarity. Although he was hiding from her before, it was not like today. There was a trace of alienation everywhere, as if a wall had been built between the two, completely blocking them. The two separated.
"Second brother, what are you talking about? Why are you so unfamiliar?"
"It's so vague that it makes people wonder what we were like before!"
