What's more, the family that the Ministry of Household Affairs wrote to is completely opposite to the Xue family and the Lin family. There are three legitimate children in their family, and even more concubine children. There are even five boys and girls.
While everyone was waiting to watch the excitement, Xue Baochai really enjoyed the feeling of being in control with one hand. It was so stable that he had everyone covered from top to bottom.
When she happily returned to her parents' home, it was reported that she was pregnant within three months. A few years later, the couple reconciled. Except for a few inconspicuous intercourse girls, no one interfered with them.
The children born in these two families were all legitimate children, and the mother-in-law of the Minister of Household Affairs had no complaints at all...
Now everyone knows why the Xue family dared to marry their daughter into such a high family.
Just when everyone seemed to understand the capabilities of the Xue family girl, Mai Fan had become one of the fastest-promoted officials in the entire dynasty.
Mai Fan served in the position given by the Ministry of Household Affairs for four years, and was directly sent by His Majesty the Emperor to his hometown, Jinling City, to serve as the governor of Jinling City.
This is a fourth-rank foreign official, who controls the people's livelihood and economy of the government.
Who in their twenties and under thirty would be so trusted by the emperor? Only Xue Pan.
At first, few people were convinced of the emperor's appointment.
How could the heavy responsibility of a state capital be placed on the shoulders of a young man under thirty who had only been in office for a few years?
Does he know what economics and people's livelihood are and what local operations are?
Just the ups and downs in the officialdom are enough for him to drink a pot.
Of course, the officials and some people with crooked ideas who served under him were very happy.
This kind of young official is the easiest group to fool. Even if he has a huge family and a mature team of staff behind him, he may not be able to defeat the local gangsters.
When His Majesty the Emperor's order came down, officials from more than a dozen states and counties in the Jinling Prefecture area were waiting to see the governor's joke.
But when Mai Fan actually took office, everyone at the top was shocked by something.
That is, the roots of the Xue family seem to be in Jinling.
And his father-in-law's father-in-law once worked vigorously as a salt patrol censor for eight years, and his area was also in Jinling.
If we talk about local vigilantes, the Xue family are truly local vigilantes from the inside out.
Now, people who want to understand don't dare to be rash at all.
Speaking of the position that Mai Fan was assigned, apart from his own family, there was probably only one other family that was happiest about it.
That was the Zhen family who used Jinling City as their base to make money from their rear.
Since Lin Ruhai resigned from the post of Salt Patrol Censor a few years ago, the Zhen family, which was almost going bankrupt, has finally taken a breather.
The previous governor had always turned a blind eye and was indifferent. The Zhen family took advantage of the time lag to get some funds for the prince in the capital.
Probably because their actions were too obvious, the emperor in the capital finally couldn't bear it anymore and planned to take action against them.
And Mai Fan was the pioneer officer he sent out. After suppressing the strength of the Zhen family and reducing it to its most miserable state, the emperor in Kyoto would uproot the entire Zhen family with a piece of official document.
This is not the emperor's tolerance, but the Zhen family in Jinling City is really intertwined with the local gentry families and cannot be separated.
Even with Mai Fan's lightning-fast tactics and all kinds of scheming, it took him two full years to get the Zhen family to focus on one thing and not the other. There were so many loopholes that the emperor caught a fatal mistake. Starting from the sixth prince himself, from top to bottom
There came a great eradication.
The Zhen family was ransacked.
But Mai Fan, who was in charge of searching the house, frowned at the property catalog that was returned.
Even if the Zhen family has been having a hard time in the past two years, how can it be possible that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse and only has the wealth listed in the list?
After being reprimanded, the sixth prince who was far away in the capital was directly downgraded from the original prince level to the county king level.
Because the residence where he originally lived after being downgraded was suspicious of transcendence, the person in charge of the relocation conducted a thorough investigation into the finances of Prince Zhen's residence.
But the huge wealth they imagined was not found in the capital.
So where can they transfer the huge amount of property that they clearly have definite evidence for?
Mai Fan, who did not believe in evil, followed various possibilities to look for clues, and then discovered that the four major families under his nose, except for the Xue family, which he had complete control over, the other three were actually involved in the Zhen family.
During property transfer activities.
In the Jia family far away in the capital, just three months before Mai Fan took action, Mrs. Wang in the inner house actually collected two huge boxes from the Zhen family.
The contents must have been reported to the ancestors of the Jia family, and the person responsible for transporting them turned out to be a former subordinate of Wang Ziteng, the current admiral of the Nine Sects.
As for the historians of the two marquises, they just sent some private soldiers to help transport them.
Among them, the Jia family must know what they received. As for the other two families, if the incident comes to light, they will be beaten to death if they refuse to admit it. Even His Majesty the Emperor will have nothing to do with them.
The Jia family is still the most stupid.
That stupid woman from the Wang family just took over something that the other two families didn't touch?
Just when Mai Fan found out where the source was, could His Majesty the Emperor, who was already in the capital, know?
But this person didn't move for a long time, and he didn't know why he pushed this matter down.
Until Jia Baoyu of Jia Mansion unexpectedly wanted to take part in the imperial examination, and took a supervisory quota from his family, and directly participated in the provincial examination of Jinling Mansion, just like Jia Baoyu's previous life, he was allowed to pass the exam.
Already.
What do you want to do?
Jia Baoyu is now twenty-four years old.
The Jia family at this time... Before Mai Fan could figure out the timeline, the emperor suddenly made a move and ordered the Jia family to be confiscated.
The charge used was colluding with King Zhen and intending to rebel.
This kind of crime is even worse than the crimes committed by the Jia family in the previous life. In order to protect the innocent relatives of the Jia family, everyone from Mai Fan to Xue Jue and even Lin Ruhai wrote letters to His Majesty the Emperor.
The things they have never understood are actually not difficult to guess.
At the beginning, the Jia family was even more chaotic than it is now, but after Jia Baoyu lived a new life and worked hard to correct some mistakes, the situation was reversed a lot.
The sisters of the Jia family did not end up as miserable as they did in the past.
