The news from Wang Ziteng made Rongguo Mansion feel anxious again.
Not to mention the embarrassment of Mrs. Wang, she complained in her heart that her second brother Wang Ziteng was not good at doing things and actually made her lose face in the palace.
As for whether Wang Ziteng was really in difficulty, she didn't bother to care.
In Wang's mind, Wang Ziteng's abilities were astonishingly great. For a small matter like fishing for Jia Zheng at the moment, wouldn't it be easy to catch if you really put in the effort?
I don’t even think about it, why would Wang Ziteng make such great efforts to get Jia Zheng by selling favors?
The Wang family is the Wang family, and the Jia family is the Jia family. There are not enough interests and benefits, so Wang Ziteng's efforts are in vain. How is this possible?
Mrs. Jia was an experienced woman and had a clear eye for fire. She ignored the embarrassed Mrs. Wang, but felt that her heart was filled with panic.
After a lot of tossing and turning, in the end the boss had to come forward to get the second child out of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, which is boring even thinking about it.
"Lai Da, go to Tongzhou and tell the boss that you must fish out the second dick, otherwise the old lady will never be done with him. Do you hear me clearly?"
Jia's mother looked miserable, and the housekeeper Lai Da warned him coldly: "If the boss doesn't do anything, don't come back yet. You must keep an eye on this bastard!"
Lai Da smiled bitterly and accepted the order, thinking that he was really unlucky to receive such a hard job!
Is the big boss so easy to control? Maybe he will be slapped hard in the face. Lai Da is a respectable person after all. If he is slapped hard in the face by the big boss, he will feel uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, his arms couldn't twist his thighs. No matter how reluctant Lai Da was, he finally had to pack his luggage and set off immediately. If he made the old lady anxious, he would not be able to keep his position as the butler.
"Hehe, after all the talk, you still end up asking the eldest man for your debt?"
Wang Xifeng felt indescribable joy in her heart. Although she was exhausted from serving the old lady, when she thought of her good aunt's stiff and ugly face, the joy in her heart seemed to disappear.
"Hey, why is Second Grandma so happy?"
Just as Lian Er came back, the old lady and the second lady didn't force him to move around today, so he finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt relaxed physically and mentally.
"Isn't it the second master's business?"
Wang Xifeng smiled and recounted what happened today, and finally couldn't help but sarcastically said, "The second master didn't see the second wife's face, that's wonderful!"
"Shh, keep your voice down, if the second wife hears it, it will not be as good for you!"
Lian Er hurriedly lowered his voice to remind him, hugged Wang Xifeng's delicate body and fell onto the couch, with a frivolous evil smile on his face.
The young couple have been in charge of the house for almost a year, and their life has been very busy. Just dealing with the trivial matters in the house is enough to give them a headache, and they also have to always be on guard against the little things happening in the second room.
All I can say is that luckily the eldest husband had already separated the monthly payments for the first and second bedrooms when he was here. Otherwise, there would still be a fight, and the young couple would have no confidence that they would be able to compete with Mrs. Wang.
For more than a year, Liang Xiaokou has suffered a lot from Mrs. Wang's secret losses.
What is especially hateful is that every time Mrs. Wang secretly acted, she always implicated Jia Mu. The young couple did not have the courage to fight against Jia Mu, so they suffered a lot from boredom, but there was nothing they could do against their second wife, Mrs. Wang.
Today, I saw and heard that Mrs. Wang was holding back her emotions. She was so happy that she naturally wanted to have a warm and intimate celebration. The young couple also wanted to have a baby as soon as possible, otherwise they would really not feel confident.
…
Lai Da has not yet arrived in Tongzhou, and while the Rongguo Mansion is waiting anxiously, a memorial from the eldest master has been delivered to the current desk.
In the memorial, the elder clearly explained everything that Jia Zheng did in Tongzhou, which naturally included the matter of the servants and the Qingke teaming up to embezzle money from the project, and indispensable the matter of the thirty thousand taels of silver that was defrauded.
The elder did not make excuses or any other false words. He directly stated that he had taken over the canal dredging project. At present, the dredging project has been officially launched. It is progressing rapidly and it will not take long for the results to be seen.
In addition, he also said that he would find a way to recover all the money stolen by corruption and fraud. Please rest assured that this matter will be resolved soon.
Finally, he talked about Jia Zheng and pretended to plead guilty for the second son Zheng. As for pleading for mercy, he didn't say anything at all. He only made it clear that he would be punished according to the rules and there was no need to give him face.
"This Jia Enhou is really a sweetheart!"
After reading the memorial of the great master, I couldn't help but laugh and curse out loud, obviously I was in a good mood.
People with deep thoughts like today naturally don't like beings who have the characteristics of their fellow countrymen. He likes ministers like the eldest master who show everything on his face and are capable.
If it were any other official, I'm afraid he would have to make a false apology, trying to show his brotherly love, but who doesn't know who is who?
Of course, if Marquis Jia En had not wiped Jia Zheng's butt, Jin Ming would not be happy. How could a ruthless and unjust person still want to be favored by Jia Zheng?
Fortunately, the elder's behavior was pleasing to Jin Jin, so he planned to let the incompetent Ministry of Works member Wailang Jia Zheng go. It is true that this guy can only adapt to the position of Yuanwailang.
I have seen incompetent officials, but I have never seen such incompetent officials!
If according to the current meaning, he should be dismissed directly, so as to prevent such an incompetent person from getting the salary of the imperial court in vain. Thinking about it makes me feel sick.
But Jia Zheng's official position was rewarded by the Supreme Emperor, but now it is difficult to directly remove him from his official position.
Although Jin Jin and the Supreme Emperor are currently having a fierce quarrel over control of the court, the apparent father-son relationship must be maintained, otherwise the censors will not miss the great opportunity to admonish Jin Jin and become famous all over the world.
Besides, it was not worth arousing the dissatisfaction of the Supreme Emperor for someone as humble as Jia Zheng, so Mr. Zheng was lucky enough to keep his official position.
Dai Quan on the side was filled with amazement. He felt puzzled by his inexplicable favorable impression of the elder, and he once again made up his mind to be on good terms with the elder.
"Dai Quan, let Jia Yuanwailang be released after he has been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment for half a month!"
Now he retracted his complicated thoughts and gave instructions: "Remember to make it clear that it was Jia Enhou who took action to stop Jia Yuan Wai Lang, so that Jia Yuan Wai Lang could be released from prison!"
Since Jia Enhou is capable and clever, there is nothing wrong with giving him some face.
It's just that I don't know it now, but my kindness has put the eldest man on the fire for a while, so that all the officials in the court know how important the eldest man is, which arouses all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred. Needless to say.
The old man didn't know that a hole had been dug for him. At this time, he was negotiating with the person in charge of the Tongzhou section of the Caobang in a restaurant beside the Tongzhou Canal.
"Master Zhou, there is no need to say more nonsense. The Caogang people defrauded the imperial court of 30,000 taels of silver. Hand over all the people and money. I will not argue with you!"
The eldest man was dressed in a smart outfit, his eyes were shining and he said coldly: "Otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences!"
boom!
Captain Zhou, who was sitting opposite, suddenly put the tea cup in his hand on the table, his eyes flashed fiercely and said coldly: "Jia Zhizhou, are you threatening me?"
"So what?"
The elder said calmly: "Could it be that Captain Zhou wants to go against the imperial court?"
"Hahaha, don't scare a certain family with the imperial court!"
Captain Zhou had a sarcastic look on his face and sneered: "Were those 30,000 taels of silver defrauded from the imperial court? They were just defrauded from your good-for-nothing brother. Don't use the imperial court's name to scare people!"
"hehe……"
The elder chuckled lightly, looked at the tall and muscular man in front of him, and said indifferently: "Listening to Captain Zhou's tone, it seems that he is very familiar with such things!"
Captain Zhou's face changed, and he looked at the elder with a look full of evil, and said angrily: "Master Jia, don't even think about playing word games with Zhou. If there is nothing else, Zhou will say goodbye!"
"Wait!"
The elder shouted loudly, called out to Captain Zhou, and said with a faint smile: "Is Captain Zhou unwilling to cooperate?"
"How to cooperate?"
Captain Zhou snorted coldly and said angrily: "There are many fish and dragons at the helm, so how can Zhou know who has defrauded my brother's money?"
Although he was feeling quite unhappy, he had no intention of offending Tongzhou Zhizhou in front of him.
It's just impossible for him to betray his brother. Even though the so-called brother is nothing, the large amount of money that this guy shows his filial piety is a good thing.
"Since Captain Zhou said so, I won't be polite!"
The elder chuckled lightly, but there was no smile in his eyes. He said coldly: "If the Caobang gangster who defrauded money is caught by this officer and asks for some terrible information, Captain Zhou will also
Don’t be offended!”
I have seen a lot of what the gang members are like in my previous life. Except for a few of them who have good moral character, the rest are just a bunch of profit animals.
The Captain Zhou in front of him was definitely not a toy. The faint evil aura on his body was as obvious as a firefly in the dark night. There must be a life on his hands.
If the eldest master really went out of his way to arrest Captain Zhou, he would definitely not have wronged a good man.
"Master Jia, what do you mean by this?"
Captain Zhou's face became very ugly, he slapped his palm on the table and said angrily: "Caobang disciples have their own Caobang rules and regulations, it's not Master Jia's turn to dictate!"
"Is it?"
If you don't drink the toast, you will be fined with wine. I won't be polite.
The old man stretched out his hand and overturned the table. The heavy hardwood square table suddenly hit Captain Zhou on the head with great force. There was a crackling sound of broken bowls and chopsticks, and Captain Zhou only had time to let out a shrill scream. He was tall and strong.
His body was pressed to the ground by the hardwood square table and he couldn't get up.
"Hit me, life or death!"
Captain Zhou obviously had a lot of experience in fighting. He let out a shrill scream and shouted angrily at the younger brother who was following him: "Don't let this guy go, I will definitely kill him!"
Four or five men with strong kung fu came roaring towards him, punching and kicking him with fists and kicks. Huhushengfeng was not polite at all.
"Get out of here, everyone!"
The old man didn't even blink, he picked up the bench under his butt and whipped all these men away...
