"It's not good..." Lixiangyuan, Aunt Xue had just returned from Rongqing Hall and was thinking about getting something when she suddenly heard the waiter outside shouting urgently.
Aunt Xue's expression changed. At this time, not only did she not want to hear bad news, but even the Duke of Rongguo didn't want to cause trouble.
Now that the royal concubine is about to get married, if something goes wrong, I'm afraid they and the Jia family will become enemies directly.
"What's the matter?" Aunt Xue forced herself to calm down and asked. When the young man saw Aunt Xue, he seemed to have seen the backbone. He ran over quickly, knelt on the ground and said quickly: "Report to grandma, it's not good. The uncle has been kidnapped. He said he wants one hundred thousand taels of silver, otherwise he will die." I want the uncle to look good! When she heard this, Aunt Xue was stunned. If she kidnapped people in the capital in broad daylight and ransomed them for money, wouldn't she be afraid of going to heaven to hear about it and making the emperor angry and the government and the public uneasy? After all, this is nothing else. This place is at the foot of the emperor, the center of Dakang. If something like this happens here, isn’t this a slap in the emperor’s face??
"Who is the other party? Why do you want to tie up Pan'er??" This time, Aunt Xue showed no signs of fainting. Whether it was Jia Qi's return or Yuanchun's appointment as a noble concubine, it gave her a certain amount of confidence.
As long as the Jia family or Jia Qi were willing to help, she knew that solving the matter at hand wouldn't be a big problem.
When the boy heard the question, he shrank his neck, hesitated for a while, and then told the truth. It turned out to be Xue Pan. He had been eating wine outside these past few days and hanging out with several princes of the feudal lord. Naturally, those few people came to the capital for their own purposes.
But apart from this purpose, their life in the capital was not easy. Everyone could see that the two saints were jealous of these vassal kings with different surnames and were wary of these princes.
There are even plans to force them to stay in the capital. However, the royal family does these things very secretly and has not yet been put on the stage. However, even if they are just watching others order the dishes, the officials in the court rarely interact with these princes. Coming and going.
So, after going back and forth, these princes could only drink to drown their sorrows, and later they met Xue Pan.
Before Jia Qi returned, they got along fairly well with each other. After all, they were all dandy boys, and they lingered all day in this place where red sleeves add fragrance, a place full of spring scenery.
Since they had the same hobbies, they quickly got along with each other. Xue Pan felt that he could be brothers with these princes, and he was so proud that he did not tell his family.
But later, when Jia Chun returned to Beijing, Xue Pan felt that his backer was back. After drinking two more drinks in the flower house, he started to talk nonsense with the princes.
He said that he knew Jia Qi, but the little maid next to him was given to him by himself, and she had no relationship with him.
When the princes heard this, they were overjoyed. Although they came to the capital for different purposes, they still had one thing in common. Their affairs were all related to one person.
That person is Jia Qi. Someone wants to get cold-resistant crops from Jia Qi. Some people are also eyeing his most elite iron cavalry, the Snow Dragon Cavalry.
Of course it would not be the ones under his hands now, but the training methods of the Snow Dragon Riders. Some people are eyeing Jia Qi's unparalleled wealth. The caravans that Jia Qi secretly develops are spread all over the world. To be honest, even Jia Qi himself doesn't know how much wealth he has in his hands. .
Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and these vassal kings will naturally not sit still and wait for death. Whether it was soldiers, horses, money or food, they were the most needed things at the moment, so they were all moved.
So when several people put it together, they made the immediate move. Aren't they unable to invite Jia Qi? Now that Xue Pan is here, they don't believe that the champion will not submit.
But they didn't know that what Xue Pan said was all nonsense, and his relationship with Jia Qi was far from that close.
The maid next to Jia Chun was not given by Xue Pan, but snatched or bought by Jia Chun.
The number of times he saw Jia Qi could not even be counted on one hand. What if Jia Qi would save him? The possibility of this happening is really low. I'm afraid someone will have to be taken in, and naturally it won't be the little maid from before, but another person.
But Xue Pan may be very willing to pay this price!
"What's going on?" With several princes involved, Aunt Xue already knew that this matter was beyond the Xue family's ability to handle.
Although she also knew that the Jia family would not be happy if she said this to them at this time, but for Aunt Xue, she had no other choice.
"He is the eldest son of King Beijing and other princes. I heard that everything was fine before, but I didn't expect that today he turned against anyone else and tied up the child Pan'er in the name of drinking!" Mrs. Wang preceded Aunt Xue. When she opened her mouth to explain, it seemed that Aunt Xue had already explained the ins and outs of this matter to Mrs. Wang before.
Originally, this matter was not a good thing for their Jia family. I don't know what kind of tricks Aunt Xue used to actually make Mrs. Wang willing to speak for her.
Hearing Mrs. Wang's explanation, Jia Mu's eyes narrowed. The four princes originally thought they were ordinary nobles from the capital, but they did not expect that these four princes would be involved.
Compared with the nobles in the capital, these four princes who hold real power are even more difficult to mess with.
"Why did Pan'er get entangled with them?" After a moment of silence, Jia Mu asked again.
This incident made her, an old lady who was used to big winds and waves, confused. No matter how you say it, several princes are noble. Xue Pan is just the son of a businessman. How could the two groups of people who were not related to each other get involved together?
? Moreover, these four princes with different surnames have long been feared by the court, and this matter has been obvious to all in the court.
At such an important moment, to be honest, she really didn't want her family to be involved with these four princes.
Originally, their family and the four princes and eight princes belonged to the same lineage before, and the relationship was not that good, but it was definitely not bad.
But more things happened later. Due to various reasons, their family was separated from the noble lineage of the capital, and the involvement was much less.
Just like now, the Zhenguo Duke's Palace and other Dukes' Palaces rarely visit their houses. Even moving around is routine.
"Mother, are you looking for us??" At this moment, Jia Zheng and Lin Ruhai walked in again.
"Second brother, Ruhai, you are here! Seeing the two of them, Jia Mu sighed softly. She really didn't want to get involved in this matter.
"It's about Pan'er's child. He was kidnapped by the princes who came to Beijing! ...
