Chapter five hundred and ninety-five(1/2)
Just after Jia Rong burned the king of Xining County to death, someone came to report from outside. Master Zhao Cheng, the commander of the Five Cities Army and Horses, was here. Jia Rong had something in his heart, so he just sat in the room and waited for Jia Zhen to deal with it. Where can he hide from such things?
Did he pass? After a while, Jia Zhen's people came to call him.
Jia Rong stood and thought for a long time, then suddenly ordered everyone below him to go out. He dug out the remaining more than 700,000 silver notes from the secret cabinet and took out a small pouch to wrap it up, then took off the sweat towel on his waist and wrapped it up.
After thinking about it, I took the folding fan I usually used from the desk. I packed the two items into a small bundle and ordered my confidant to go out from the back door immediately and deliver it to Uncle Qiang personally. He also said with a smile: "You will be rewarded heavily when you come back."
"It was common for Jia Rong to give something to Jia Qiang in the early years. The boy didn't know there was so much money in it, so he hugged it away with a smile.
Jia Rong then changed her clothes and went out as if nothing had happened. Then she saw Zhao Cheng smiling and cupping his hands and saying: "Uncle Rong, I have ordered my concubine Chun to go to the Yamen. The Ningguo Mansion is harboring thieves."
Jia Rong said angrily: "What a woman with blackened internal organs! I rescued her from the door of the brothel, struck her with silver, gave her gold, got beads, and gave her precious stones. He held her as if she were a treasure.
Raised a white-eyed wolf!"
Zhao Chengdao: "Mr. Chun said that there are thieves hiding in the small courtyard behind Huifang Garden in your mansion."
Jia Rong was stunned: "How could such a coincidence happen! The one who just escaped was Huifangyuan."
Zhao Cheng was shocked and stood up immediately: "Please let me go and have a look!"
Jia Zhen suddenly felt bad and asked, "What's going on?"
Jia Rong said: "I guess no one has lived there for a long time. Now the weather is dry and the water has gone out." Jia Zhen closed her eyes. Zhao Cheng wouldn't believe such prevaricating words, so she just went to the street and pulled out a person.
No one would believe it. I immediately felt ominous.
Sure enough, Zhao Cheng hurriedly went to Huifang Garden for a visit. When he came back, he said a few words of courtesy and hurried away. Not long after, the imperial army entered the house and took away Jia Rong without any further explanation.
All the slaves who were fighting the fire in Hui Fang Yuan were captured.
The person who asked the question was Feng Ziying. He first interrogated some of the slaves, and finally asked Jia Rong. Jia Rong had already arranged it, and only said that those people were bandits and threatened to live in their house with the life of the whole family. Feng Ziying believed him
What a ghost! She glanced at him coldly for a long time and said: "Brother Rong, this matter is important. If we don't tell the truth, we will not care about the lifelong friendship between our two families." Jia Rong knew in her heart that she was hiding something.
What kind of crime was the imperial convict? He insisted that he was a thief. Feng Ziying sighed, stood up and turned around to leave. Jia Rong's heart was filled with drums.
But half a quarter of an hour later, an official with a sinister face came out of the cell, waving his hand and ordering someone to take Jia Rong out. Jia Rong was so frightened that his legs went weak. Two government officials carried him and dragged him to a big room, which was very cold inside.
The place was filled with instruments of torture. Jia Rong rolled his eyes and fainted from fright. The official didn't care and said with a smile: "You will wake up naturally if the beating hurts."
Jia Rong was just a dandy young master, how could he ever suffer such hardships? He attacked the first guy before he was done with it. Within half a day, the bodies of Xining County Prince and three of his men were found by the government, but their faces were difficult to identify.
Feng Ziying looked at the confession and shook her head: "Why bother?"
A few days later, Jia Huan finally found Feng Ziying's door. Feng Ziying expected that sooner or later he would have to come, so the first thing she said was: "Don't mention the matter of Uncle Xiao Rong in your Dongfu."
Jia Huan smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Zhen knelt down and hugged my father's lap and cried. What can I do?"
Feng Ziying said: "He ruined the prince's important affairs, so I really can't spare him."
Jia Huan looked at him and said, "They burned down a yard in their house a while ago. They must have destroyed some evidence."
Feng Ziying waved her hands and said: "Don't try to trick me."
Jia Huan sighed: "That's all. Anyway, I just want to ask, will it not implicate innocent people? Will his wife and his four-year-old daughter be fine? Our sister-in-law Zhen is also quite innocent." Feng Ziying said nothing. Jia Huan said nothing.
Huan thought for a moment, "There is also the Prince of Xining's Palace." He sighed, "All the legitimate sons and grandsons have been sent away. My wife, daughter, daughter-in-law, granddaughter and concubine's children have all been thrown away as shields. Anyway, the prince only takes these.
People took their anger out."
Feng Ziying glanced at him: "What do you want to say?"
"Didn't you tell me? These people are innocent, and the guy surnamed Jin doesn't care." Jia Huan said, "Even if you kill one person every day at Caishikou, you won't be able to catch half of their people. Besides, there are so many people in the world.
Big, he doesn’t know where he has fled to. How many ships are sent out of Tianjin Port every day?”
Feng Ziying put down the tea cup in her hand: "What are your ideas?"
"Well, distribution." Jia Huan said confidently, "Isn't the war going smoothly in North America? They were all sent to the colonies to open up wasteland. Those who don't know how to farm can also do other jobs. Even Jia Rong, these people are not without value.
"Although Jia Rong is unworthy, he is still clever. He was just not forced to a dead end in the past. This time he got the wrong backer, so he must have suffered some hardships."
Feng Ziying blinked and said nothing.
"It's not like you don't recognize Jia Rong." Jia Huan took a sip of tea. "It's a pity that the material is useful. If he were born in our house, it would be useful. Besides, you won't get anything even if you kill him. It's better to use the waste. Xining
If the people from the royal palace are sent to North America, wouldn't they just follow the lead if they can't get enough guarantees to attract their people to contact them? The two big palaces together can have a population of 2,000. Send a few large ships and let them bring some daily necessities.
Things passed..."
"Huh?!" Feng Ziying frowned, "You still want them to bring something?"
Jia Huan hummed: "I know you don't understand this. What's the use of throwing a group of prisoners with limbs in the past? Creativity! Brother, what makes people better than animals is creativity! Immigrants are more creative than prisoners. Prisoners have to
Someone is watching them work, and the immigrants will take the initiative to run their own lives. What does the prince want? Is it a large open space? What he wants is towns, farmland, shops, and tax revenue. Let the helpless women farm the fields.
For example, Brother Rong's wife, whether she can grow good crops or not, will die of illness in a few years. How much money will the prince receive from the beginning to the end? If she is allowed to make clothes, she will definitely earn more than farming. But she alone
Young Mistress, her clothes-making skills are mediocre; why not give her a clothing workshop and let her take care of it. Brother Feng, the land is vast and the people are sparse! Everyone is valuable. The lack of population in North America is the overall situation."
Feng Ziying looked up at him for a long time and sighed: "I understand what you mean."
Jia Huan nodded: "Please."
Feng Ziying thought for a while and said: "That's all, it doesn't matter if I tell you now. The Prince of Xining County is dead."
"ah?!"
Feng Ziying sneered and said: "I never thought that Uncle Xiao Rong still had the courage."
Jia Huan thought for a while: "Brother Rong killed him? Could it be that he set fire to the yard just to destroy the corpse and eliminate traces of it?"
Feng Ziying nodded: "He took in the Prince of Xining County and guarded him for a few days."
"Hiss..." Jia Huan frowned and thought for a long time, "Is the Prince of Xining County in trouble? He has no place to hide, so he hid in Dongfu? Our house is right next door and he is not afraid?"
Feng Ziying had not thought of this section before, and wondered: "Theoretically, he should have a lot of places to live. How can Jia Rong be trusted? It's hard to say whether he will be released."
Jia Huan touched his chin and said, "Is it possible that something went wrong in the place he originally prepared, or that someone he trusted betrayed him?"
Feng Ziying complained: "I have many things to ask that person named Jin, but your uncle Xiaorong actually committed murder and silenced me."
Jia Huan spread his hands: "After all, she is the queen of Ning Guogong."
Feng Ziying hummed: "If he didn't make Duke Ning Guo crawl out of his grave, he's not strong enough." He paused and said, "That's all, I'll ask the prince tomorrow what to do with him."
Jia Huan stood up and bowed to him: "Excuse me, Brother Feng."
Feng Ziying sighed again: "I've known him since I was a kid..." He shook his head and got up to see Jia Huan out.
Two days later, the Royal Forest Army raided the Ningguo Mansion, and a seal was posted on the door of the Ningguo Mansion following the fourth generation's decree. The cry could be heard for several miles. Jia Huan tried to find a way to ask Feng Ziying to open a back door and get Jia Rong's young daughter out.
He and Aunt Zhao helped raise him.
Two days later, Jia Qiang came to Rongguo Mansion and asked to see Jia Huan. Jia Huan then ordered him to go to Qixie Zhai in the outer study. Jia Qiang was seen sitting on a chair with a pale face. When Jia Huan came in, he took out a
He put the small purse on the case and took out a roll of banknotes. Jia Huan's eyes jumped and he pointed: "This is..."
Jia Qiang said: "A total of 701,000 silver notes were sent to me by Brother Rong before his accident."
Jia Huan was startled, shook his head and said: "Jia Rong is really not a person, but he is very kind to you."
Jia Qiang said: "Is this why he got into trouble?"
"No." Jia Huan said succinctly, "It's because he killed the person the prince wanted to keep alive for interrogation."
Jia Qiang's eyes were filled with disappointment: "Then...then...you want to clear the joints?"
Jia Huan shook his head: "There are no joints to unblock."
Jia Qiang said anxiously: "Everyone is dead, so what's the point of killing him?"
Jia Huan said calmly: "Let go of your anger."
Jia Qiang choked, then said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, do you want to kill him?"
"I don't know, money can't get through to God this time." Jia Huan looked at the roll of banknotes on the case, "And if you want to make an exchange with the prince, this idea is not enough. Now we can only wait and see if Feng Ziying has any other ideas.
If we can find out the results through other methods, maybe his fault can be alleviated."
Jia Qiang's eyes lit up: "Uncle Huan, can you help Mr. Feng?"
Jia Huan looked at him silently for a long time, and Jia Qiang lowered her head. Jia Huanfang said slowly: "What does Feng Ziying do? Can others interfere in his affairs casually?"
Jia Qiang nodded very lightly, and for a long time, she murmured: "Their eldest daughter must be in your house."
"Um."
Jia Qiang put the banknotes back into her purse and pushed them to Jia Huan: "Let's make a dowry for that child. After all, it was left by her father."
Jia Huan sighed softly, looked at him and said, "Brother Rong is really not worthy of you."
Jia Qiang smiled sadly: "I was just that kind of thing back then, and we are a perfect match." Then she stood up and left. Jia Huan just ordered the boys outside to send him out, and he held his purse in his hand and smiled bitterly.
.
On the other side, the people of King Qin deceived the Supreme Emperor from Jinggang Mountain and did not dare to cross the territory of Yan State. They took a big detour from Wu, Qi, Jin and other places, and only arrived in Chang'an in the twelfth lunar month. King Qin had just lost his son, and he was depressed and was too lazy to care about him.
For the time being, he was imprisoned with heavy troops.
A few days later, something went wrong in King Qin's house. There was thick smoke billowing out, as if water had escaped. King Qin's sons hurried over. After hearing the news in the Prince's Mansion, the Prince's concubine also hurried to his son's house.
In the courtyard, I cleaned him up haphazardly and ordered him to hurry over.
