Renzi Scroll Chapter 175 The Jia family hides their secrets (Second update!)
After pondering for a long time, Hao Tugao said slowly: "Ziying, if your father comes eastward with the army of the four northwest towns, what will happen if something happens to Gansu and Shaanxi? The situation in northern Shaanxi is particularly serious, and your father should know about it, otherwise he will not
Choose Qingyang as a place for military training."
"My father still has an elite force left. General He will temporarily command the troops. It will be fine, but the premise is that the food and salary must be received on time." Feng Ziying thought for a while and said: "But if the food shortage caused by the drought cannot be solved,
The problem is always a fire that is difficult to extinguish. If we relax even a little bit, it will resurge. When dealing with it, the court should not only eliminate the root cause, but also the root cause."
Hao Tujiao certainly hopes that the imperial court can vigorously provide relief to his hometown in Shaanxi, but Shaanxi has always been barren and has almost no savings. The food and grass stored in it are basically prepared for the four towns in the northwest. Even the Chief Secretary of Shaanxi has no right to use military supplies and food and grass. To solve this problem
The problem is that we need to import grain from Henan, but this costs a lot. After all, it is still a money and grain problem.
For this reason, he also contacted a number of Shanxi and Shaanxi scholars to jointly submit a letter to the cabinet, requesting increased relief money and food support for Shanxi and Shaanxi. However, now he is facing the puppet North Korean army occupying Shandong and threatening the capital, and it is urgent to resolve the Xuanfu Army and Datong Army's threat to the imperial court.
The threat is the most important issue, and everything else comes second, which also makes them worried.
What Feng Ziying said today made Hao Tujiao even more worried.
"What Ziying said makes sense, but the imperial court is in a difficult situation now and faces many difficulties. I'm afraid it won't be able to spare much effort to take care of the victims in Shanxi." Hao Tugao sighed, "If there is a chance, Ziying
Ying should also talk about this matter in front of the cabinet ministers, otherwise once the refugees from Shanxi and Shaanxi rise up, they will also pose a great threat to the capital."
Of course Feng Ziying agreed wholeheartedly.
The conversation between Feng Ziying and Hao Tujiao in front of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion also affected the Qianlong forbidden officers and soldiers from the Military and Horse Division who were originally planning to conduct an inventory of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
The superiors didn't say anything, so the people below naturally had no choice but to wait. It wasn't until the conversation between the two came to an end that Captain Long's subordinates came up to ask for instructions.
Seeing that Hao Tujiao had no objections, Zhao Wenzhao was of course happy to see the success, so the people here went in and made a simple inventory of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, while Lin Daiyu had already put on her hat and veil and was ready.
After Feng Ziying went in to talk to Lin Daiyu, Wu Yaoqing had also returned. Feng Ziying told Wu Yaoqing to bring Daiyu, Zicuckoo, Xueyan, Chunxian, Guguan, Ouguan and several servants with her.
As for the relevant items, except for some that can be carried with you, the people from Long Jinwei's side will first check and register them. After everything is checked and confirmed to have nothing to do with Rongguo Mansion, they will be taken away...
Hao Tugao didn't stay long and went straight out of the Grand View Garden to go to Jia She's place to check on the progress. That was the focus of their attention.
"Why are Master Hao and Master Zhou so concerned about that place?" Feng Ziying asked curiously, he still didn't know what happened.
"A secret cellar was found under the ear room of Jia She's inner courtyard. It is estimated that there are thirty to forty thousand taels of silver hidden there, as well as some other items of considerable value." Zhao Wenzhao said with a smile on his lips, "Everyone in the Jia family kept saying this.
It’s hard to make a living, so we all rely on pawning old things, but from my perspective, I’m afraid the turtle still has meat inside its shell, it’s hidden deep inside.”
Feng Ziying was surprised. Didn't Jia She keep the money in the bank? But then she thought about it, with Jia She's suspicion and treachery, how could he bet the treasure on one family? What if Haitong Bank refused to admit it?
Hiding in one's own house and digging a cellar is the safest option, but it is also obviously the stupidest. Facing people like Captain Long who have been doing this job for a long time, how can you hide your tricks from them? ?
But from what Zhao Wenzhao means, it seems that it’s not just Jia She? Is there anyone else like this?
This really aroused his curiosity. In his impression, apart from Jia She, Wang Xifeng was probably the only one who could have such means. Who else could be there?
Jia Mu? Wang family? Couldn’t it be Li Wan?
It can't be some servants, right?
It’s hard to say. Characters like Yu Xin, Wu Xindeng, Lin Zhixiao, Zhou Rui and Wang Shanbao have a lot of power in their hands. They have accumulated a lot over the years. If they can be more greedy and ruthless, they will not It's not like catching up with the Lai family, but there's no problem in being a little rich man.
Seeing Feng Ziying's look of disbelief, Zhao Wenzhao couldn't help but let out a laugh.
This person still knows little about the dirty things in these big families.
This big family, which has lasted for hundreds of years, has branches and branches, and there are many unworthy children. There are hundreds of people of all kinds, and they all have to think about how to get more out of the master's family.
If this family is still a prosperous and prosperous family, then the people below may have to be more restrained. After all, they can still make progress with the master's family. If things get worse or the family is declining, then these servants will naturally have to give up and be able to Just get a handful from the owner's house.
"Why, if you're interested, why not go and have a look?" Zhao Wenzhao invited with a smile.
Feng Ziying hesitated, "Is it appropriate?"
"Is there anything suitable or inappropriate?" Zhao Wenzhao said nonchalantly: "You have even taken care of Lord Hao, why are you still afraid of Lord Zhou? I was originally most worried about Lord Hao, the censor from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Well, at any time, we may have a hat on our head, it is difficult to deal with it, the Ministry of Punishment, haha, that has nothing to do with us, it is also the same thing that people have complained about everywhere, and also handed over a share to the Ministry of Punishment, otherwise there is no way There's nothing wrong with them, I don't even bother to let them in."
Zhao Wenzhao was telling the truth. Everyone was a bit afraid of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Long Jinwei was no exception. But for the Criminal Department, it was a completely different matter.
The road is facing the sky, everyone goes to one side, and everyone does not interfere with the river. It is best if we can join forces, but if we can't, it doesn't matter. Everyone has his own way, and everyone has his own way, and everyone has his own troubles.
"That's fine, but I still have to go there for a walk, and work with you to show off my power, so that your people don't go too far and have some dignity." Feng Ziying pointed to Qiu Shuangzhai.
Zhao Wenzhao was stunned, and after being stunned for a long time, he said with a smile but not a smile: "Master Feng, you have such a good appetite, how could it be..."
Feng Ziying's face straightened up and she waved her hands quickly: "Don't make wild guesses. I married a daughter of the Xue family. She and several members of the Jia family are cousins, and Jia She's concubine was also taken into my concubine. Anyway, they are all Relatives, they are all women. It was my father and brother who committed the crime, but they are the ones who suffered. How could I just watch them be humiliated?"
Zhao Wenzhao sighed helplessly, "Master Feng, you are really passionate. How can you manage so many things?"
"You can control it as much as you can." Feng Ziying also looked sad, "You have to live up to your own conscience, otherwise it will be difficult for you to have someone poke you in the back after you go back."
Zhao Wenzhao could only shake his head and said: "No wonder your reputation has spread throughout the capital, and countless ladies from all over the capital are eagerly waiting to marry into your family..."
"This is a rumor, a pure rumor. How could I ever have such a bad reputation?" Feng Ziying quickly waved her hands to deny it: "My reputation was ruined by you people with your rumors."
While joking and joking, the two crossed Qinfang River along the Fengyao Bridge.
The gate of Qiu Shuangzhai was wide open, and people were coming and going. Not only could there be whispers of crying, but Feng Ziying was also heartbroken.
I came here at the right time. No matter what I say, I don’t look at the monk’s face and look at the Buddha’s face. When I come, people come. Whether it is the people of Long Jinwei or the soldiers and horses, they have to be restrained.
.
Even though people like Tanchun and others can't escape the crime and have to go to prison, as long as they come forward, everyone knows it well and won't be too embarrassed or go out of their way.
They all understand that if they really offend themselves and don't look up, they will definitely not get any good results from them.
‘Feng Ziying walked towards Qiu Shuangzhai, and Zhao Wenzhao could only accompany him in.
As soon as he stepped into the door, he saw a mess inside. Tanchun was hugged by two girls, Cui Mo, the servant, and stood aside, looking coldly at the fans who were rummaging around inside and outside, as well as the other little maids and maids.
The children were so frightened that they shivered and huddled aside, not daring to say a word.
"Old godly woman, why are these things hidden under this bed?" A fan picked up a whip and was about to whip a woman who probably felt that she had deceived him. "I told you a long time ago that I have to ask for everything.
Take it out for me in a polite manner and register it, so it won't be difficult for you. If you play tricks in front of me, don't blame me for being rude..."
Zhao Wenzhao coughed quickly, turned around, and saw his boss and the sullen Feng Ziying next to him. Then he retracted his hand, lowered his head, and hid aside.
When Tanchun and the girls saw Feng Ziying coming in, their eyes suddenly turned red. They wanted to come up and say hello, but were stopped by Feng Ziying's eyes.
When they saw that Feng Ziying was in casual clothes, they knew that Feng Ziying was here in a private capacity. They understood immediately and could only look at Feng Ziying longingly.
Feng Ziying knew that these Longjin Lieutenants were actually very polite. How could anyone else be so polite? Zhao Wenzhao should have paid his respects before. If he continued to be so uncompromising, then he would really be disrespectful.
You are sensible now.
After sighing, Feng Ziying could only wink at Tanchun. Tanchun walked aside and Feng Ziying walked over. This time Zhao Wenzhao did not accompany him, but only signaled the other fans to do their own things.
The two walked to a corner, and Tan Chun couldn't help it anymore. He rushed forward and grabbed Feng Ziying's neck tightly. He couldn't help but burst into tears: "Brother Feng, I thought you weren't coming. Why don't you?"
When I thought we would never see each other again in this life,..."
Feng Ziying also had ups and downs in her heart, but she didn't know what to do. At this time, he really didn't have the ability to solve their troubles.
