"Second brother Lian, take the eldest master, the second master and eldest brother Zhen to see for yourself, and this is not the time to be stingy. Pay a lot of money and promises to reward Lin Zhixiao and the dozen or so servants.

If we can't win over these people, we will have to deal with them ruthlessly."

Jia Lian nodded as soon as he thought about it, "Don't worry, if these people don't know what they are doing, I will take them to the Tuntian Camp with Ronger tomorrow.

If there is really a war, then everyone will accept their destiny."

Although Jia Lian's idea was not so cruel, it was still a solution, and Shi Zhongkui felt more at ease with him.

I can be ruthless, but if my relatives and friends are the same as me, I will really have a headache.

Not long after, Jia Lian came back with Jia Zheng, Jia She and Jia Zhen who were also pale.

As soon as Jia Mu saw the expressions of her two sons and her cousin Jia Zhen, she knew that she was right.

But the flaws in Jia Zheng's character were immediately exposed.

Seeing Jia Mu looking at him, he wanted to speak several times, but his tongue kept trembling and he couldn't speak clearly.

On the contrary, Jia She, who was extremely dandy, said calmly, "Mother, my son, my second brother, Brother Zhen did see a faint green light in the sky in the newly built garden under the dark night.

emerge.

You can see that this situation is definitely not a good thing.

And if I hadn’t been standing on the rockery to check, I probably wouldn’t have discovered it.”

Mother Jia's expression darkened, "Oh, what evil has this done? It's going to lead to disaster."

Jia She shook his head and said, "Lian'er said that Bo Qian couldn't decide whether someone was plotting to kill my Jia family, or whether he accidentally brought the disaster back to the garden.

But judging from the son's intentions, this matter must be related to Nama Taopo.

This damn witch must have become greedy after seeing my garden. She wanted to take a large amount of money from the east house and a small amount from my west house.

And if the old woman really cured Zhen'er, we will definitely treat her like a distinguished guest.

She even wanted to build a family temple in my house, but we would rather have her guard it and take care of it."

Jia Mu, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian thought for a moment and nodded.

Jia Zheng then calmed down and said, "Fortunately, my family can have a virtuous son-in-law like Bo Qian, otherwise I would be exposed and my enemies would be treated as benefactors."

"That's not right. What if the old witch really wants to harm the people in the palace..."

"Shut up," Jia Mu shouted angrily, glaring at Jia Lian and said, "This is exactly what your father said, do you understand?"

Jia Lian was shocked, but fortunately he was not stupid. He understood what Jia Mu said.

We can only insist that this matter was caused by Ma Daopo coveting the money of the Jia family. Otherwise, if there were really rumors that someone wanted to harm Concubine Yuan in the palace, there would be big trouble.

Moreover, since Ma Daopo is dead and even her soul has been captured by the Yinsi people, no one in the Jia family can refute what she said.

However, after Jia Mu thought about it carefully, she was still a little undecided. After all, she had solved the problem secretly and then pretended that nothing happened.

It would be better to inform the palace.

"Bo Qian, after much thought, I still think it's best to talk to the palace about this matter."

Shi Zhongkui was stunned, deceiving superiors and concealing subordinates was a common method used by ancient officials.

Countless facts and examples have proven that the safest and least troublesome approach is to keep any news at bay.

Otherwise, no matter how well the problem is solved, someone will inevitably jump out to find trouble.

What's more important is that few officials in this great Zhou Dynasty can stand the challenge.

This problem is the same for Rongguo Mansion.

Which noble family doesn't do a lot of shameful things?

Even when Jia Mu was in charge of the family in her early years, there must have been a lot of dirty and dirty things.

Before Shi Zhongkui could say anything, Jia She and Jia Zhen jumped out to object.

No need to guess, these two people must have something secret in their hearts, and there are even some dirty things going on in Ningguo Mansion that are not known to outsiders.

After thinking for a while, Shi Zhongkui said to Jia Mu, "Old lady, if we inform the palace, Concubine Yuan's Lantern Festival wedding will probably have to be cancelled.

Can you really let go of this dignity and royal honor?"

Jia Mu shook her head, "If I think about it carefully, even if people are kept tight-lipped under family orders, to make you laugh, even if I haven't done anything for many years, I still understand that the Ning and Rong mansions are like sieves and cannot hide anything.

secret.

If you don't report it, you are deceiving the emperor. Such a serious crime cannot be tolerated by our Ningrong mansion."

The crime of deceiving the emperor is at least the crime of confiscating the family and being exiled.

It is also common for people to be executed.

Jia Zheng, Jia She and Jia Zhen suddenly stopped talking.

Jia Mu sighed and looked at Shi Zhongkui again, "Bo Qian, please write it, Zheng'er will copy it, and I will write to His Majesty and the Emperor all night long."

After hearing this, Shi Zhongkui felt relieved.

As long as the handwriting is not yours and the signature is not yours, it doesn't matter who writes it.

It is common for each family's memorials to be written by the master and the guest.

Moreover, Shi Zhongkui thought carefully that since he was at Jia's house, he also needed to write a memorial and report it.

In order to avoid leaving an impression in the minds of the emperor and the emperor that he did not report what he knew.

Then he shook his head and said, "Old lady, reporting it is inevitable, but it's best to get rid of the monster first, lest outsiders interfere and it might cause trouble."

Jia Mu, Jia Zheng and others thought for a while and nodded quickly.

Eliminate the demon first and then report it, so that only the emperor and the emperor can know about it.

Even if there are rumors about this in the government and the public after a few days, without the evidence and the monster, there will be no way to target the Jia family.

And Shi Zhongkui himself can save himself a lot of trouble.

Jia Mu looked at Jia Zheng and Jia She, and when they saw that they were silent, she said, "Just do what Bo Qian wants."

Writing a memorial was easy for Shi Zhongkui, and he put the responsibility on Ma Daopo.

The emperor would most likely be concerned that his nephew, the former prince of Anle County, had been deprived of his title, and would ignore the Jia family's affairs despite the memorial.

As for the Supreme Emperor, who personally demoted his grandson to guard the imperial mausoleum, he was also unwilling to mention the former Anle County Prince again.

Firstly, this grandson must have brutally killed his own grandfather, and secondly, during the scandal the year before last, the former Prince Anle's lower body was injured, which basically means that he has lost his use value.

Letting him out would serve no purpose other than disgusting the emperor. The emperor could only think that letting him guard the imperial mausoleum safely for the rest of his life would be the best result for him.

Looking at the sky, Shi Zhongkui raised his hands to Jia Mu and said, "Old lady, do you still need Baoyu to get rid of the flower demon personally?"

Jia Mu shook her head without hesitation this time, "Bo Qian, if you are sure, then take your second uncle, father-in-law and others with you.

First subdue the flower demon and then ask her why she wants to harm my family.

Forget it about Baoyu, he is only 13 years old and has always been spoiled by his family. Besides, Baoyu is good at everything except he can't bear to see the girl's tears.

If you are confused by that flower demon, trouble will inevitably arise."

Shi Zhongkui secretly laughed in his heart, it turned out that the old lady also knew that Jia Baoyu was a idiot.

I couldn't help but wonder if it was possible that Jia's mother also understood that Jia Baoyu was born with a jade in his mouth, which was a taboo, so she deliberately raised him to death?

As for those favors and favors, it was nothing more than the fact that his biological grandmother had raised him since he was a child and had always been by his side. His feelings for Jia Baoyu were naturally deeper than those of other descendants.

After leading Jia Zheng and the others out of the house, they met Jia Rong, Lin Zhixiao and a dozen domestic servants in the front yard, and the group went straight to the new garden with lanterns.

Although it was night along the way, Shi Zhongkui still became more and more speechless as he watched.

It is so luxurious that many places are even more generous than the imperial palace.

No wonder even after Jia Yuanchun came back, he felt uneasy and kept saying it was too extravagant.

Glancing at the serious-looking Jia Zheng, Shi Zhongkui really didn't understand what the old master was thinking.

Even though Jia Yuanchun is a virtuous concubine and her rank is adequate, does she really have no fear in her heart?

Or did he really think that the emperor was showing favor to the Jia family by allowing Yuanchun to go home to visit relatives?

If this is the case, it can only be said that it is time for the Jia family to change its leadership.

Sighing helplessly in his heart, Shi Zhongkui said to Jia She, Jia Zheng and others, "Father-in-law, second uncle, the flower demon is in the front yard. Why don't you let me subdue the flower demon first, and then you can ask her,

Lest I accidentally disturb you."

Jia She nodded hurriedly, "My dear son-in-law, you have thought carefully. I will wait here for your news."

Jia Zheng shook his head and said, "Brother, what you said is wrong. Bo Qian helped my family solve the problem, so how can I let him take risks alone?"

Besides, there are nearly twenty of us, so even if we can't help, we can still distract the flower demon by waving flags and shouting from the side, so we don't dare to attack Bo Qian with all our strength."

This time, Shi Zhongkui was surprised. It seems that people have their own strengths and weaknesses.

Compared with the selfish Jia She and Jia Zhen, Jia Zheng, who is just timid and has no talents, is actually the type of person that most people are willing to make friends with.

And when it comes to a critical moment, Jia Zheng can say this, which also shows that he is moral in his heart.
