"Mother! This is Brother Qi's way of retreating in order to advance~"
Capital, Rongguo Gongfu, Rongqing Hall.
Jia She sighed and said as if he was unsure.
When Jia Mu and others heard this, they couldn't help but look over.
Jia She continued: "You must keep your next words secret. This is just my guess, but once word spreads, not only our family will be angered by the saint, not even the Wang family and the historians will be spared!! "
After saying that, Jia She also glanced at Mrs. Wang emphatically. He was used to being casual, but he was not really stupid. In his eyes, the other party's methods were similar to those of a child playing house, but now there were two hands on top. Sheng Zai, their family has those criminal records, so he has to pretend to be the same all the time.
Mrs. Wang felt a little uncomfortable being seen by Jia She, but if she recognized her now, wouldn't she be asking for trouble? So she just pretended not to hear, lowered her eyes and remained silent.
When Jia Mu heard what Jia She said, she was quite reluctant. She was the only one from the Shi family here. Was her son talking about her? ?
"Okay, if you want to say something, just say it. If you don't want to say something, just stop it! You think we are willing to listen to your rambling here!!"
Jia She shook his head helplessly. It wasn't that he was deliberately being mysterious here.
But that guess was too shocking. If such crazy words were allowed to spread, it would be a disaster for the two houses.
This matter may be due to the government affairs of Zhen Guogong and Li Guogong. Now the soldiers in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing are all soldiers from Jizhou Town and Xuanfu Town. These two places were originally owned by the two old Dukes. It has been in operation for decades. I am afraid that the generals stationed here now are all their subordinates back then! "
"If they all fall to Brother Qi's side, what will happen to the court?"
Mrs. Wang is from the harem, so she doesn't know much about these things, but Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian and Jia Mu still know a little about the details here.
If it is really like what Jia She said, then the capital city may be in Jia Qi's hands.
Jia Mu was silent for a moment and then continued to ask: "Boss, what does this have to do with what happened today?"
Jia She sighed softly, "Mother, this is the essence of this matter, and it is also the fundamental reason why the Holy Spirit does not punish anyone!!"
Everyone didn't know why, and Jia She ignored them and continued: "If I guessed correctly, what Brother Xing said was actually to retreat in order to advance! Just imagine if Lian'er, Zhen'er, and Rong Xiaozi were really killed by him Okay, what about the Fan family and the Zeng family? Everyone knows about Brother Qi’s temperament and the contact during this period of time. It’s not an exaggeration to say that you will repay your hatred, right?"
"To put it bluntly, the Fan family and the Zeng family are also afraid that Jia Qi will ignore them and uproot them! Just like he did to the Zhen family!"
Hearing this, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. The old concubine's natal family had fallen into such a state. If Jia Qi really took action, the Fan family and the Zeng family would definitely not be spared.
"Fan Yuanhe and Zeng Shutang probably took this into consideration and were forced to cease their activities. The emperor was also probably worried that the person behind Duke Zhen and Duke Li was Brother Qi, so he gave them a lighter sentence and did not To embarrass them two veterans from the Taikang period, if they want to secure their position, they cannot just rely on joy and anger, they must also balance the forces of all parties!!"
"And with Brother Qi here, the Emperor's treatment of our two houses, the Zeng family, and the Fan family cannot be biased. If you let the Fan and Zeng families go, there will be no reason to make things difficult for our two houses!!"
"This is all because of what I said before. If it were not Duke Zhenguo and Duke Li who took action that day, then this situation probably wouldn't be happening!!
After saying this, Jia She's eyes flashed with something strange that no one present had noticed. Since he could think of this, how could he not think that if Emperor Mingkang really nodded in court today, would Jia Qi really do so? Take action and kill Jia Lian, Jia Zhen, and Jia Rong, the direct relatives of the two houses, and then take the opportunity to wipe out the Fan family and the Zeng family in one fell swoop? ?
This is also the reason why he was silent for a long time just now after he figured out why this situation occurred today.
Because he also guessed the answer, Jia Qi would do this.
That's why Fan Yuanhe and Zeng Shutang didn't dare to gamble, so Fan Yuanhe agreed to Zeng Shutang's approach even though he knew that criminals might deceive the emperor.
Thinking of this made Marquis Jia En, who was in the prime of life during the Taikang period, feel sad. Once upon a time, were the two palaces really in decline? ? Has it even come to this?
But he didn't say this thought, he just pressed it.
First of all, the relationship between the two houses and Jia Qi is not bad now. Considering what he had experienced in the two houses before, even if he did nothing, no one would probably say anything.
Saying it at this time will only increase everyone's troubles.
"So that's what it is~"
After Jia Zheng listened to Jia She's analysis, he couldn't help but nodded. He still admired Jia She's ability and knew why he ended up in this situation.
He guessed that Lin Ruhai must have noticed this! That's why when Jia Qi expressed such fierce words, he didn't refute it.
"Only the people in our house know about the affairs of Duke Zhenguo and Duke Li, and no one else should talk about it! Although there is a queen in the house now, the background is still not deep. Such things, Once it is spread, the Fan family, the Zeng family, and even Brother Qi can handle it. If the Holy Spirit cleans it up, once it is found that it was spread from here, then we will be meat on the chopping board! Don't do it. Self-mistaken!!」
In another room in the Duke Rong's mansion, Baochai, Xiangyun, Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun, and Li Wan were talking. Although the gentlemen had already begun to go to court, for boys and girls like them, For us, this year is not over yet!
Everyone chatted and couldn't help but talk about Daiyu. As soon as he mentioned her, Jia Baoyu immediately turned cold. Ever since he knew that he had completely lost Sister Lin, Daiyu had become a scar that he could not touch. It was okay if he didn't talk about it. With the girls in the room, he gradually let it go. However, the Xiren in his room, She Yue, and the other maids didn't dare to mention it on weekdays.
One time, when Xi Ren saw Jia Baoyu in a state of despair, he said casually, "Like someone, it doesn't mean that you have to tie that person to your side, but that you want the other person to have a good life. It's better to know each other than to stay together!!"
She learned this from Baochai, but it didn't work for Jia Baoyu at all. She almost dropped the psychic jade again, which almost scared Xiren to death. Normally, this little ancestor was because of A few masters threw jade, and the old lady, it’s hard for the madam to say anything, but if it was because of people like them who had thrown jade, they would definitely be beaten to death by the masters the next day.
Now that they heard Miss Shi mentioning this matter, the expressions of several maids in Jia Baoyu's room couldn't help but change, and they looked nervous. Baochai, Yingchun, Tanchun, and a few others also looked a little nervous. The little girl Xichun seemed to be confused. Not aware yet.
Li Wan glanced at Jia Baoyu unnaturally. It was just a topic of conversation, but it vividly explained the helplessness between the daughters in the inner house.
Shi Xiangyun was a carefree girl from the Shi family. Regardless of those things, if Jia Baoyu got tired of her, she would go back at worst. Anyway, love or hate between children all come and go in a hurry.
Baochai is because the Xue family is temporarily relying on the Jia family and needs to rely on the power of the Jia family. The Jia family came forward to help them settle the things that Xue Pan had committed before.
The importance of Jia Baoyu in the family is self-evident, and she cannot offend her. If Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang find out, they will probably be unhappy.
Yingchun and Tanchun had the same mentality. Jia Baoyu also had a title in the Rongguo Duke's Mansion - Phoenix Egg!
From this title, we can also see the specialness of Jia Baoyu.
The old lady regarded him as an eyeball, and even Jia Zheng was often ostracized by the old lady because of Jia Baoyu.
Xichun, on the other hand, was more casual because of Jia Qi's presence. She didn't deliberately provoke him, nor did she deliberately avoid him. If someone mentioned something, she would just talk to him and not care.
Because people in the two houses didn't dare to do anything to her, and her brother Qi didn't allow it either.
"Tell her what she did!!"
Jia Baoyu shook his face, and regardless of Xiangyun's expression, he reached out and slapped the table. The lid of the tea cup on the table was shaken up, and then there was a crisp sound of ceramics clashing.
Xiangyun was choked by Jia Baoyu's voice. Now that there were so many people here, he couldn't get off the stage.
Xiangyun, whose face turned red with shame, also said angrily: "Why can't you tell me!! I haven't seen Sister Lin during the Chinese New Year. You are tired of me, but you don't allow us to tell us!!"
When Jia Baoyu heard Xiangyun's words, he frowned. It was not that he was tired of Daiyu, but that girl no longer belonged to him. Sister Lin had never been to Jia's house since they met during the New Year.
I heard that Jia Qi accompanied her back to Suzhou, to Sister Lin's hometown, to pay homage to Sister Lin's mother.
When he thought about not having contact with that sister anymore, he was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.
"Nonsense, who said I'm tired of her!"
When Jia Baoyu heard Xiangyun's words, he couldn't help but retorted, and his face turned red and thick-necked for a moment.
Seeing Jia Baoyu like this, Xiangyun's heart skipped a beat before he said a few words. This man seemed to be hysterical.
"She's tired of me only playing with Jia Qi and doesn't even come to play with me anymore!!"
Still a child after all, Jia Baoyu didn't know how to express his feelings, so he just talked about it.
Li Wan on the side shook his head secretly. Logically speaking, Jia Baoyu's conditions were not bad. He was born in a noble family and was the favorite of Jia's mother. He also had an elder sister who was a princess in the palace, and his father was also in court. As an official, and with a gentle personality, domestic violence will not happen in the future.
It can be said that he is a good match, but if compared with that boy, the gap between them is not even a little bit.
Originally, Lin Daiyu grew up in Jia's family, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that the two of them were golden boys and girls. However, she had discovered before that the relationship between the two seemed unlikely at the beginning.
Looking at it again today, Jia Baoyu is like "Prince Xiang has feelings, but the goddess has no dreams~"
Li Wan was sent by Jia's mother to watch over this group of sisters-in-law and uncles. Naturally, he would not just watch them make trouble. Then he heard Li Wan say: "Don't talk about that! Things in the house haven't calmed down yet. Oh! Even Mr. Lin will not let Miss Lin come!! Sister Feng even suffered a lot and is still reflecting in her own little yard!!"
Sure enough, after Li Wan said this, the attention of these little guys was attracted.
"How about we go meet Sister Feng!!"
