"Okay, that's all for Xing Zhong. I didn't say anything. It's just that your loan business seems to be going well." Feng Ziying said calmly: "Tell me, why do you want to see me today?"
Jia Rui's face turned solemn and he became serious: "Return to your lord, I have some news to report to you."
Feng Ziying was a little surprised and waved her hand to stop her. She was calling herself a master and had to report it. Did she treat herself as her boss?
"Wait a minute, Brother Rui, what are you doing? I'm not the governor of Qianhu, Longjingwei. Maybe you got the wrong person?"
"Sir, I know, but because of the seriousness of the matter, after thinking about it, I still feel that I need to report it to you, and you have already reported it to your superiors before." A look of embarrassment appeared on Jia Rui's face. "It's just that there has been no response from the boss, and I'm a little flustered and embarrassed."
Feng Ziying became interested.
It is the practice of Long Jinwei to have spies in the families of these Wu Xun families. This is the rule of the Jinyi Guards of the former Ming Dynasty inherited from Emperor Taihe, to spy on the situation in the families of Wu Xun, the commander, to prevent rebellion.
It’s just that nearly a hundred years have passed, and it turns out that the Long Wuxun family has basically gradually declined. A family like the Jia family, which was a dual-state family, was so prominent in the past, but now I am afraid that Emperor Yonglong can only remember his name, most of them. Or is it because Jia Jing is Prince Yi Zhong's best friend and Jia Yuanchun is in the palace? Why should you care if your Jia family has no soldiers or power now?
Jia Rui was a spy placed by Long Jinwei in the Jia family. In fact, Jia She and Jia Zheng probably also knew about such things from their parents, but they didn't know who it was.
Moreover, they also know that the current Rongguo Mansion does not need too much attention from Captain Long. It doesn't matter. Maybe it is a servant who was bought in, maybe it is a child of that side branch, or it may be a child from an unappreciated family. It's all possible.
Jia Rui is so mysterious, can he still find out any secrets from Jia Rui's family?
"Oh?" Feng Ziying nodded, "Say."
"The adults also know Xiao's identity. After all, Xiao is also a child of the Jia family. Xiao also hopes to live a stable life. It's just a salary. But when you receive a salary, you have to work hard, otherwise you won't be able to get the money. Stable." Jia Rui sighed, "It has been stable for so many years since I was young, but in the past six months, I have discovered some unusual situations."
Feng Ziying rubbed her chin, guessing what this guy was going to say. He knew the situation in Rongguo Mansion very well. The only person he was unfamiliar with was the Ningguo Mansion. Could it be Jia Zhenjiarong and his son?
"The younger one spent more time in Dongfu during this period, but rarely saw Brother Rong. Later I met Brother Zhen and found that they seemed to be a little secretive, so the younger one secretly investigated... "
Sure enough, Feng Ziying immediately understood what Sanjie You mentioned inadvertently. She also said that she had arranged for Wu Yaoqing to go to Haosheng to investigate, but Jia Rui had already detected the signs.
"Oh? Then what did you find?" Feng Ziying's face became serious and she asked in a deep voice.
"They are dealing with the suburbs of Beijing such as Beitang and Zhuangzi over Lutai. They have basically sold out, and some shops in the capital have basically been sold..."
Feng Ziying was also shocked by Jia Rui's words, recalling the vague words Jia Rong first came to her. At that time, she thought that the other party might have been instructed by Jia Jing to bet on both ends, but now it seems that Jia Zhen
Jia Rong and his son felt that the situation was unstable again and sold off their assets?
Although the situation of Rongning Second Mansion is terrible, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and there are still 3,000 nails in the broken ship. The two houses still have a lot of fixed assets such as shops and Zhuangzi in Gyeonggi. They have sold some, but they still have a lot of fixed assets.
There is quite a lot of inventory, but now the Ningguo Mansion has almost disposed of it, so the income must be quite a lot, so why is the You family still borrowing money from You Er and You San?
Is the You family really ignorant of the secret activities of Jia Zhen and Jiarong and his son, or is this family colluding to deceive outsiders?
The key is what does Ningguo Mansion plan to do after selling these fixed assets? Antiques in prosperous times and gold in troubled times. Does Jia Zhenjiarong still think that troubled times are coming, so he exchanges these fixed assets for gold and hides them?
It is not impossible, but Feng Ziying does not think that Jia Zhenjia Rong and his son are such courageous people who dare to make such a judgment and sell off all fixed assets in one go. She really feels that the Zhou Dynasty is going to be in chaos.
It won't last long?
Feng Ziying was silent.
Another possibility is that Jia Zhen and Ji Rong are planning to follow the example of their father (grandfather) Jia Jing and run south. They temporarily leave their assets in the north and run south to Jinling. There should be a lot of Jia family's assets there. If
If this is the case, it means that Jia Jing probably gave Jia Zhen and Jia Rong the idea that the north and the south were going to war, and even thought that the south had a better chance of winning.
Jia Zhenjia Rong hid the secret from Rongguo Mansion. Could it be that she thought that this way could be used to split the bets. Ningguo Mansion would side with Prince Yizhong and Rongguo Mansion would side with Emperor Yonglong. In this way, no matter where they were,
If one side wins, there will be room for maneuver.
This kind of consideration is in line with the style of a wealthy family, especially now that Jia Yuanchun is a noble concubine, and now Baoyu is going to be the son-in-law of Emperor Yonglong's favorite Princess Yongning. These two relationships are intertwined, and it seems real
Something like this.
I just wonder if Rongguo Mansion knows the layout of Ningguo Mansion?
Or is it an unspoken understanding?
Feng Ziying is not sure.
But in any case, this needs to arouse vigilance. From another perspective, Jia Zhenjia Rong's actions may also mean that Prince Yi Zhong's preparations in Jiangnan may be more complete than imagined, and his confidence is stronger than imagined.
Respect that you dare to pass some information to Jia Zhenjiarong.
"Brother Rui, have you reported this situation to your superiors?" Feng Ziying finally said.
"I reported it, but there was no reply." Jia Rui was also helpless. Those who do what they do are all in single-line contact and are not allowed to skip levels. He came to report the information to Feng Ziying. He also thought that he did not belong to the same system and disclosed it to Feng Ziying and Feng Ziying.
There are also other ways to reduce the risk of exposing yourself.
"Well, I know about this." Feng Ziying nodded, "You go ahead. You have done a good job in this matter, but don't spread it outside. Your superiors should have their own arrangements."
Although Feng Ziying didn't say anything, Jia Rui could still feel from Feng Ziying's satisfied expression that he had done a good job in this matter. Being able to hold this person's thick legs firmly, he would be more than just a Dragon Guard in the future.
Secret agents, maybe they can register themselves in Shuntian Mansion, and many things will be easy to do.
After Jia Rui left, Feng Ziying picked up the teacup and tasted it carefully, while also thinking about the actions of Ningguo Mansion.
He is still unable to judge what the Ningguo Mansion's plan is, and how the Rongguo Mansion is "cooperating" or "ignorant"?
He felt that he still underestimated the heritage of these veteran Wu Xun families. At least they were quite good at survival.
But in any case, this is not a good sign. As the autumn weather approaches in Tienwang Mountain, everyone’s thoughts are focused on the actions of Prince Shou, Prince Fu, Prince Li, Prince Lu, and Prince Lu to compete for the crown prince, but they intentionally or unintentionally ignore Prince Uizada.
Perhaps he felt that Prince Yohitada had lost opportunities and possibilities in this situation?
Judging from the current situation, whoever raises the flag of rebellion has a very small chance of succeeding in the rebellion, even Prince Yohitada. Therefore, rationally considering, no one will seek death. However, this is the case under normal circumstances. If it is abnormal,
Where's next?
This is what Feng Ziying is worried about.
He had a premonition that something would go wrong at the grand gathering of Qiu Xi in Tiewang Mountain, and it would definitely affect the changes in the entire Zhou Dynasty. Prince Yi Zhong would not let this opportunity pass by, but what would happen?
What, Feng Ziying has no clue. It is not mentioned in history or in the book "Dream of Red Mansions". Can it be accurate if it is just a hunch?
Now I can only take one step at a time. Although Tiewan Mountain Qiuyi is on the territory of Shuntian Mansion, I can't go there without being summoned.
Staying in the Capital City has the benefits of staying in the Capital City, and going to Tiewang Mountain also has the benefits of going to Tiewang Mountain. You can feel many things most intuitively, and you can discover and sense the direction of the wind in advance.
"Sir, Miss Baoqin is here, saying that the imperial concubine wants to see you." Baoxiang came to report again.
After seeing her three times in the past two days, Feng Ziying was thinking that Yuan Chun was not afraid that the people in the palace who followed her would be suspicious, but he had no choice but to not go to the summons.
This time when I saw Yuanchun, I returned to Gu Ensiyi Hall.
From a distance, Yuanchun's complexion seemed to be much better. Perhaps meeting and laughing with Baochai and Baoqin made Yuanchun feel a little better.
"Brother Keng, I've thought it through carefully. As for Su Lingyao, I plan to take a step back temporarily and stabilize it, but I can't cut off the relationship all at once. That will arouse the other party's suspicion and dissatisfaction, and even target me.
." Yuan Chun stared at Feng Ziying and said word by word: "It's still more than a month before we arrive at Tiewangshan Qiuyi. I believe you have the skills to see what's going on here. I hope you can observe and figure it out during this period.
Now, if you want to tell me something, I will arrange to take Qin out every ten days, and you can give her the news."
She hasn't given up yet, but Feng Ziying can understand. She still wants to bet on herself and make her own predictions about the possible changes in the future situation before placing bets, but this is still very dangerous.
He was not sure of what would happen, and Yuanchun seemed to have felt something, so he was so concerned about this.
