When Jia Hengfang entered the backyard, he saw Qingwen and heard the melodious voice of an oriole: "The mandarin ducks from the West Mansion came over and called the young master, saying that the old lady had set up a meal in Rongqing Hall, and asked the young master to come and use it."
Jia Heng pondered for a moment and asked, "Didn't you tell her that I would go to Lixiangyuan later?"
One can also guess what Jia Mu called him for. It was probably because the news about Jia She and his son's exile had reached Jia Mu's ears, and she was looking for him to discuss countermeasures.
It's just that he has said all the good and bad things he said before and doesn't want to deal with Jia Mu anymore. He has been dealing with machine maintenance for a day and is a little tired.
As if she could see the tiredness on Jia Heng's face, Qingwen curled her lips and said in a slightly complaining tone: "Yuanyang said that my concubine and Miss Bao are also in Rongqing Hall. I heard that the eldest master and the second master Lian are going to have an abortion.
Release the capital and discuss it with the young master."
Jia's mother obviously came well prepared. She even found out in advance that Jia Heng had made an appointment with Aunt Xue and Baochai to discuss Xue Pan.
Jia Heng thought for a moment and said, "I'll go there after I take a shower and change clothes."
"Hot water has been prepared for Young Master." Qingwen's cheeks were bright and she stepped forward to help Jia Heng take off his cloak.
Without saying anything else, Jia Heng followed Qingwen to the back room where she usually bathed, took off her clothes and got into the tub.
Qingwen also entered the tub, kneaded Jia Heng's shoulders, held a pair of small lotuses that had just exposed their sharp corners, rubbed Jia Heng's back vaguely, and said softly: "Master, this afternoon
, the house is still discussing, if the West House loses its title, will it be like the East House did in the past, and the mansion will be sealed and confiscated?"
Jia Heng frowned and said: "The court will not take it back, the old lady is still here."
The Rongning Second Mansion in the sacred city of Jing was built by imperial decree. To put it bluntly, it was given to Rong Ning by the Chen and Han royal family. This is why when the Jia Mansion ransacked their homes, their family members were all kicked out of the Rongning Second Mansion.
The so-called "given to you" will generally not be taken back unless someone commits a crime and is expelled from the title. The emperor even rewards Rongning and Ningfu with gold, silver and silk every year.
Of course, if you really want to copy it, you won't be lenient.
In addition to the family temples and sacrificial fields used to worship ancestors, everything else was confiscated. In the original work, Qin Keqing and Sister Feng said that they would buy some silver to use as sacrificial fields because they would not involve sacrificial fields if they ransacked their homes in the future.
In line with that sentence, a benevolent king will never stop people from worshiping him.
Nowadays, Jia Mu is the wife of Rongguo. She is considered to be a superior person. She must be given some face. Otherwise, if Jia Mu is not around and Jia She is exposed, the house will be ransacked as soon as possible.
"If the old lady is a hundred years from now, wouldn't it be?" Qingwen Liuye's charming eyes flashed under her slender eyebrows and she asked softly.
"If there is a possibility that someone will talk about this a hundred years later, then the Rongguo family will just return to their hometown in Jinling." Jia Heng said, turned around, glanced at Qingwen in surprise, and said strangely: "
At such a young age, why are you so full of ideas about how to wipe out your family? You just have a lot of brains?"
As he said that, along with the sound of water, he pinched Qingwen's snowflakes.
He secretly said, just a brain, but not a snow child?
He didn't even expect that he could push the Xifu to this point and drive out of the Rongguo Mansion. "It's like a bird that has eaten all the food and throws it into the forest. How clean is the vast white land?"
Qingwen Qiong snorted in her nose, with a palm-sized melon-seed face, cheeks as red as rouge, and a moist and charming look in her foxy eyes. She hugged Jia Heng's neck with her two white lotus-root-like arms and made a waxing sound.
Said: I also came out of the old lady's room, how could I think like that? I just thought that if something like this happened after all, it's hard to say what the future holds."
Jia Heng nodded, lifted the girl's smooth and round pointed chin, pressed down the peach blossom lips with his thumb, and said: "Okay, don't worry about this, wait for me to take a bath, I have to go to Rongqing Hall later.
.”
"They bother the young master every day." Qingwen snorted and complained in a low voice.
Jia Heng didn't pay attention to Qingwen's childish words. With Qingwen's dedicated service, he put on a Sichuan brocade round-neck robe and went to the Baoxia Hall in the backyard to meet Yuanyang.
Seeing Jia Heng coming, Yuanyang quickly stood up from his chair and called out: "Uncle Heng."
As if she was a little embarrassed because of yesterday's intimacy, she lowered her head slightly, turned her oval face away, and her lips seemed to retain the previous tenderness, and whispered: "Uncle."
Jia Heng nodded towards Yuanyang and said warmly: "Let's go."
The two of them walked along the corridor painted with green paint and painted with auspicious cloud patterns. At this time, lanterns were lit under the eaves of the corridor, and the candlelight reflected the dim sky.
"Uncle, the old lady went to the palace this morning to ask for mercy. The eldest man and Mr. Lian were sentenced to exile by the court. The old lady is feeling uncomfortable right now." Yuanyang introduced what happened in a few words.
Jia Heng nodded and asked: "I already know about this. Is the old lady okay now?"
Yuanyang said softly: "After some persuasion, I feel much better now. The second master is also in Rongqing Hall right now."
At this moment in the Rongqing Hall, Jia Mu is sitting on the Arhat bed, feeling a little more energetic. She is talking with Mrs.
Besides, Jia Zheng was sitting on the chair next to the small table.
As for Wang Yi's daughter-in-law, she had already returned to Wang's house in despair since the previous troubles were neither embarrassing nor embarrassing.
It turned out that Jia's mother had been sad for a while, and when Jia Zheng heard about it, he quickly came over to comfort her.
In the afternoon, Jia Mu ate some gruel and rested for a while. In the evening, the sky was gloomy. When she woke up, she felt much calmer and gradually accepted the fact that Jia She and his son were exiled.
After all, they have withstood a lot of storms. When Daishan and Daihua of Rongning and Ningfus passed away one after another, the Jia family was in a sluggish state. This is how Jia's mother came to be. If she had been depressed and depressed about everything, she would not have lived like this.
age.
Jia's mother looked at Jia Zheng, who was sitting not far away, and asked: "Zheng'er, your brother and your nephew are now exiled to other provinces. When brother Heng comes over later, you can discuss whether you can let their father go."
You two, please don't suffer much on the road, your brother is already a lot of age, and I don't know if he is going to be good or bad if he is exiled to a ravine."
Jia Zheng looked sad and sighed: "Mother, I still don't know which yamen person escorted him to exile. Even if he tries hard, there is no way out."
When Jia Mu heard this, her face froze, and she suddenly realized again that her youngest son was just a junior official in the Ministry of Industry, and now he was "unemployed" at home because of the Beijing inspection.
Rongguo Mansion has been defeated so far.
In the past, Jia's mother always felt that Jia She was not pleasing to the eye, and her ears were not clean, but now that she was in this situation, she felt like her heart was being cut by a knife.
While they were talking, a woman came in and said, "Old lady, second master, madam, Uncle Heng is here."
Hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the young man who came in one after another with Yuanyang. He was tall and tall, wearing an azure gown, with an indifferent expression and a calm demeanor.
Jia Heng looked at Jia Mu, who looked haggard, saluted, and asked, "Old lady, are you okay?"
As soon as she saw Jia Heng, Mother Jia's face showed excitement, and she quickly said: "Brother Heng, you are finally here. Come and sit down."
Jia Heng sat on the embroidered pier and said with relief: "Yuanyang told me what happened just now. It is truly a great kindness from the Emperor to save my life."
"But the title was lost, and the father and son were exiled to such a remote place. They will never be pardoned and come back." Jia Mu said sadly.
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said: "It is better to keep the green hills and not worry about running out of firewood than to lose your life."
Jia Mu sighed: "Brother Heng, I think this is the same idea, but they are used to being pampered and pampered. Brother Heng, see if you can work with the officials to make them suffer less when they get there, especially with Zhen."
brothers……"
At the end of the sentence, maybe he was worried about violating Jia Heng's taboo, so he quickly stopped talking.
But the expressions of everyone in Rongqing Hall suddenly changed.
Exiled, it is said that there is no danger to life, but it is possible that, for example, Jia Zhen, I don’t know if she is buried now.
Jia Heng muttered: "It's not difficult to say hello to others, but after all, they are exiled as prisoners. They have to do hard labor when they arrive in Guizhou, not demoted to become officials. If the old lady feels sorry for her, and she has Sister-in-law Feng, she might as well follow her.
past."
Jia Mu, Mrs. Xing: "..."
Sister Feng: "???"
Mrs.
Are you kidding me? Let her go all the way and her life will be thrown away like brother Zhen?
Sister Feng did not speak, but looked at Jia Heng with a pair of red and phoenix eyes in surprise.
Jia Heng glanced at Mrs. Xing. After Jia She was deposed, Mrs.
"Brother Heng, forget it. They are responsible for their own affairs. How can we implicate the family again?" Mother Jia's face changed, and she said quickly, and then sighed: "Now the incense of Xifu is
But it’s hard for you, the clan leader, to worship me.”
Since there was only incense offered and no title succession, Jia Mu had no other ideas.
Jia Heng said: "As the leader of the clan, I lead the men in the clan to worship the ancestors of Rong Ning's second house. It is only natural and right. Old lady, this is the way to go. It's better to relax and live your life."
Aunt Xue persuaded Jia Mu from the side and said: "Old lady, what Brother Heng said is that life must pass. It is a blessing among misfortunes that your life is not in danger."
Mother Jia let out a long sigh, looked around, and saw young, lively, and beautiful faces. She felt much better without realizing it, and said, "Yuanyang, let's set the food."
After all, I am not a person who wallows in grief. I am really tired after tossing and turning.
At this time, Jia Mu suddenly looked at Sister Feng, who had no smile lines on her face, and said comfortingly: "Girl Feng, no matter what happens to Lian'er, you will always be my granddaughter-in-law. In front of Brother Heng, the patriarch, I do the same."
An explanation.”
It was a reassurance for Sister Feng.
When Sister Feng heard this, she had mixed feelings for a moment. She raised her gorgeous melon-seed face, looked at Jia Mu, and sighed as if crying: "Old ancestor."
As for how much grief there is, there was a rift between the couple before, but now that they are just exiled, the heartache has become much lighter.
After Li Wan heard this, he glanced at Sister Feng. His elegant face was filled with sadness, and she didn't know what to feel in her heart.
In fact, what Jia Mu said was not unusual. When Jia Zhen was deprived of her title and exiled, Jia Mu also said the same thing to You. She probably meant the same thing, that it was not easy to remarry and that she should keep her integrity.
However, unlike Li Wan, both You and Sister Feng had no heirs.
Jia's mother looked at Jia Heng again and asked: "Brother Heng, Baoyu, I have an errand in the Ministry of Works. Last time you said you had other concerns, but now you don't know what you want to do?"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Wang, who was standing aside with an indifferent expression, almost pricked up her ears and secretly paid attention.
Yuanchun, Tanchun, Chai Dai also looked at Jia Heng and listened to what he said.
Not only Baochai discovered this problem, but these slightly older girls were also keenly aware of the difficult situation of Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Heng said to Jia Mu: "Old lady, please be patient. This is not a temporary matter."
In the case of the Ministry of Industry, the clues were not collected completely and they were launched rashly, which failed to achieve miraculous results. However, the details of the case could not be explained to Jia Mu.
When Jia Mu heard this, she felt a little unhappy.
Mrs. Wang's eyes were darkened, and she knew that that person would never be so kind. He just stood by and watched her brother's affairs. Now that Xifu is experiencing bad luck, she doesn't know how proud he is.
Yuanchun bit her cherry lips with her teeth, a look of thought on her face.
Jia Mu couldn't help but said: "Brother Heng, the loyal and obedient prince is always at odds with our family. I have seen that there have been several incidents. Brother Heng, you are the patriarch of our family. You have to take action."
That’s an idea.”
"That's what the old lady said. Wasn't that what happened to Huangshang back then? Pan'er's incident, it's a good thing that this prince didn't get the chance to make a raft, otherwise I don't know what else would have happened." Aunt Xue also said
He was interjecting words from the side, but what he said after that was more like... faintly flattering.
In the east and west mansions, now that Jia She has left, Jia Zheng is free, and the kings and kings have been divided.
Mrs. Wang sighed and said in a cold voice: "I thought about the beauty of my step-brother's daughter-in-law's family, but it's not possible that this prince made her famous."
At this moment, under Jia Heng's intentional or unintentional reinforcement, King Zhongshun has become the "white-faced traitor king" on the stage in the eyes of the women at home in the Jia family, perfectly transferring their hatred.
Of course, I also talked about it privately in the back house.
Mrs.
Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Chai Dai, Yuan Tan: "???"
As soon as these words came out, it was as if a cold air swept through Rongqing Hall, and there was a sudden silence, and you could hear a needle drop.
Tanchun frowned and thought to himself, is this disrespectful?
But after all, I turned a corner, and it was said by an ignorant and foolish woman, so I pretended not to have heard this crazy thing.
But Jia Mu glared angrily and reacted with a glare, her face was as pale as Mrs. Xing's mourning.
Yuanchun quickly changed the subject and said softly: "Although it is due to personal grudges, people also have justice."
Baochai glanced at Mrs.
Since Governor Jinyi didn't hear it, then... it should be okay, right?
Jia Heng cast a glance at Mrs.
It is said that we cannot strictly investigate major cases, but when we trace the evidence, we really have to dig through the dregs of the project.
Jia Zhengning frowned, pretending not to hear the crazy words, and said worriedly: "Mother, the sects of this country are still the holy brothers. They are not so easy to get along with. When my father is around, I have to stay out of the way..."
As he said that, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate to talk about his father with his son, so he changed his words and said: "Earlier, Brother Heng didn't go to find someone because of that evil beast Baoyu. Such vassal kings have deep foundations and occupy justice. Who can
I can’t say anything.”
When everyone heard this, they all sighed.
No one feels relaxed when being stared at by an old prince.
Yuan Chun said: "Actually, there was discord before. It was not a day's work. This prince is the holy brother, so he may act without any scruples."
Jia Heng picked up the tea cup, sipped the tea calmly, and listened quietly. Well, in short, he was very pleased.
After constant beatings, the female relatives of Rongguo Mansion at least know that a peaceful and comfortable life of wealth does not fall from the sky, and there are political enemies outside who are eyeing them.
