Zhen Yingjia, who was confused and seemed to have been greatly stimulated, came out of Yingyue Restaurant. She was awakened by the cold wind outside, suddenly clapped her hands and exclaimed.
He turned around and was about to return to the restaurant, but suddenly stopped as soon as he stepped forward. After thinking about it, he still didn't go back to look for trouble with that kid.
Previously on the third floor of the restaurant, I was restrained by a series of remarks by that boy Jia Cong that were related to his family and life. The control of the subsequent conversation was always in the hands of that boy.
Sharp words!
This is Zhen Yingjia's evaluation of Jia Cong.
In just a few sentences, the difficulties facing the Zhen family were clearly explained, and even veterans like Zhen Yingjia fell into this trap.
only……
Damn you little bastard, no matter how difficult it is for the Zhen family, it has nothing to do with your Jia family?
The reason why they are so enthusiastic and active is that these two boys and even Lin Ruhai have been involved in it and cannot escape from it?
Zhen Yingjia was not stupid. She quickly reacted and was immediately angry, funny, and at the same time awe-inspiring.
Nowadays, the Zhen family values "good life" and not only sent Lian Er to be the prefect of Jinling, but also Lin Ruhai to be the governor of Huaiyang. This is a rhythm of killing everyone.
Obviously, the two Jia brothers, including Lin Ruhai, probably had no intention of fighting with the Zhen family, so they revealed the news in advance to prepare the Zhen family.
It seems that the two boys from the Jia family can cooperate secretly.
As for completely wooing him, it's simply impossible, unless he can get a handle on that guy Lian Er.
Knowing that he has bad intentions towards the Zhen family, even a fool would not get into the same boat as the Zhen family at this time. Do you think he is living too comfortably?
…
On the other side, Lian Er, who was still staying on the third floor of the restaurant, saw Zhen Yingjia hurriedly leaving along the transparent railing, and couldn't help but say, "We, are we successful?"
"What good thing are you thinking of?"
Jia Cong rolled his eyes and said angrily: "With Zhen Yingjia's shrewdness, he must have understood our intention, and there will inevitably be some involvement!"
“It’s already very good!”
Lian Er breathed a sigh of relief and said, "At least it's better than fighting with open swords and open guns!"
"Things won't go so well!"
Jia Cong said leisurely: "Brother Lian, didn't you investigate? Zhen Yingjia cannot be the sole leader in the Zhen family!"
"Then there's nothing more to say!"
Lian Er's eyes turned cold and he said in a deep voice: "Now that the Zhen family is dissatisfied with it, how can it be possible for the Zhen family to escape unscathed? Naturally, someone will be treated as a scapegoat and get stabbed!"
"Brother Lian, be careful!"
Jia Cong reminded: "If the die-hards of the Zhen family know that you are the person sent today, they may assassinate you!"
Lian Er was taken aback and said with a wry smile: "When the time comes, my third brother will have to help!"
Isn't that what he's afraid of? He doesn't want to die in an assassination without knowing it, and he hasn't lived enough to enjoy it.
"Okay, I will stay here in Jinling for a while!"
Jia Cong nodded, changed the topic and asked: "By the way, Second Brother Lian, what is going on here in the Jinling clan? I have heard rumors in Gusu!"
"Don't mention it, it's so unlucky!"
Lian Er looked unhappy, waved his arms and said angrily: "Those old guys in the clan are relying on their old age and asking for that!"
Having said this, he couldn't help but sneer again and again, and said disdainfully: "It's just that you want me to help deal with some shady things, but you actually want to arrange for the younger members of the family to enter the prefect's yamen, and give them a leisurely and powerful position!"
"Come to listen, these Jinling clan elders have some shady things that they need you to help clean up?"
Jia Cong became interested and asked curiously: "Although I know that the Jinling people are doing well, I still don't know what kind of life they have become."
"Isn't that the means of invading fields, injuring people, and taking advantage of others?"
Lian Er sneered and said: "It's really good. If you hadn't come to Jinling, you wouldn't know how arrogant the people here are!"
"Oh, aren't these all real handles?"
Jia Cong clapped his hands and said with a smile: "With these handles in hand, Brother Lian, as the prefect of Jinling, can make the clan members look good at any time. Hasn't the Jinling clan completely fallen into Brother Lian's control?"
Lian Er was stunned for a moment, and then said suspiciously: "Did I hear you right? Third brother, you want me to use these as a handle to control the Jinling clan?"
When he said this, there was indescribable weirdness and surprise on his face.
"It's natural!"
Jia Cong said indifferently: "There is nothing to worry about when the handle is delivered to your door. Just take it and let the clan do the work for you!"
"Isn't this bad? After all, we are of the same race!"
Lian Er was a little hesitant, but his tone was a little relaxed.
"Brother Lian regards them as the same clan. Do they also regard Brother Lian as the same clan?"
Jia Cong sneered and said, "Are you trying to ride on your head and dominate me?"
"But if they bring the complaint to the capital..."
"Why bother with it? Brother Lian is now the prefect of Jinling and will not return to Beijing for at least two or three years. Even if it is a personal letter from the old lady, you can treat it as if it does not exist!"
"What you said makes me really excited. After staying here in Jinling for a while, I realized that without the help of the Jinling clan, I really can't do anything!"
"Then there is nothing to hesitate about. As long as you grasp the fate of the Jinling clan, and then use kindness and power to scare the monkeys, suppressing the Jinling clan will not be a problem!"
"You can give it a try!"
Jia Cong had nothing to do. He followed Lian Er back to the guest room of Jinling Magistrate's Yamen to stay temporarily. At the same time, he gave Lian Er some bad ideas to trick the Jinling clan members.
Of course, it's not really a scam, but it's about letting these guys who have been fed up by a comfortable life do something more meaningful.
In short, in the next few days, the Jia family in Jinling fell into chaos.
Lian Er was also ruthless, taking the evidence offered by the Jinling clan and threatening him. Those who disobeyed and caused the most trouble would be sent directly to the magistrate's prison to think about their mistakes behind closed doors and be held in solitary confinement.
He arrested five or six incompetent clan members in one go and sent them directly to prison without giving any face to the noisy elders. Such a harsh and decisive method frightened the Jinling clan members.
"Be honest and obedient, do some things for me that you can do, and maybe we can get people out, otherwise we will just wait to collect a few cripples!"
Lian Er looked fierce and said angrily: "Don't test my bottom line. To be honest, the Jinling clan and the Jingcheng clan have been separated for a long time. What can I do if I don't recognize you?"
Damn it, none of the clans in the capital dare to live so freely and comfortably.
After a combination of hard and soft tactics, the Jinling clan, which was in a hurry, was finally captured.
Without the so-called elders who are relying on their elders to make fools of themselves, few of the young tribesmen below would have the guts to contradict Lian Er.
You are so brave, you are currently locked up in the magistrate's prison and eating corn.
With the help of the Jinling clan, Lian Er understood the situation of the Zhen family more clearly and thoroughly.
At the same time, we also have a general understanding of the Zhen family's power in Jiangnan.
giant!
This is Lian Er's evaluation of the Zhen family after learning about it.
He also told Jia Cong specifically, hoping that Jia Cong would not be so domineering and cruel in dealing with the Zhen family in the future.
"Brother Lian doesn't even look at it. It's true that the Zhen family is huge, but how many Jiangnan officials are the real confidants of their family?"
Jia Cong said disdainfully: "Even Zhen Yingjia himself is just the president of Tirenyuan with a false title. None of the other Zhen clan members are in the officialdom. How can such strength intimidate the officials in Jiangnan?"
this……
Lian Eryi was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
But most of the fear in his heart towards the Zhen family dissipated in an instant.
Just as Jia Cong said, the Zhen family seems to be full of flowers, but in fact there is not even a reliable pillar in the officialdom.
Despite the great momentum at this time, it was the assets left behind by the old lady of the Zhen family and the concubine Zhen Gui. Over time, if the Zhen family did not come up with a new flagship figure, the Jiangnan forces with it as its core would easily fall apart.
The Jinling Jia clan was making such a big fuss that it naturally attracted the attention of the remaining three of the four major clans.
When they figured out what was going on, they couldn't laugh or cry for a while.
Of course, no one accused Lian Er of being ruthless and attacking the clan unjustly. This was purely an internal matter of the Jia clan.
Although Xue Pan is no longer the head of the Xue family and even gave up his imperial merchant status to his cousin Xue Bian, there are really not many people in the Xue family in Jinling who are disobedient.
Who knows that this guy has money in his hands, and now he is close to a big boss? Whether it is Lian Er, the prefect of Jinling, or Lin Ruhai, the governor of Huaiyang, neither the pure businessmen of the Xue family dare to offend them, will they risk their lives?
The situation of the Jinling historians was even better. As soon as the two young princes of the historians went to that station, they did not dare to say anything casually.
As for the Wang family, isn’t there Wang Xifeng?
She grew up in the old residence of the Wang family in Jinling, and did not go to the capital until she was ten years old. She knew the situation in the old residence in Jinling very well, and it was easy to suppress the clan members here.
Without the chattering of the three old relatives, the Jinling Jia clan, who had little confidence to resist, would naturally not dare to act recklessly.
Of course, it is unavoidable to secretly write a letter of complaint to the old lady in the capital. Even if the Jinling people are obedient and don't write it, the Jincai couple who stay at the old house in Rongfu will write it and send it to the capital.
Lian Er doesn't care at all...
In other words, this guy is in high spirits at this time, and the feeling of taking charge of the Jinling clan is too wonderful. Even if the old lady writes a letter at this time, forcing him to hand over the power of the Jinling clan honestly, he will not agree.
"Is this right? Why do you worry so much?"
While drinking in private, Jia Cong said angrily: "Only the things that are actually in your hands are yours. Otherwise, everything will be given by the elders. Whenever you want to take it back, it's just a matter of words. Brother Lian is willing to do it."
Hand it over obediently?"
How can it be?
Lian Erzhi was so proud that he did not answer the call and said with a smile: "In the past few days, I have learned through certain channels that there is a huge quarrel within the Zhen family..."
