The journey of the heavens by Jia Huan, the salted fish

The news in the capital spread quickly. What Jia Huan did on the first night spread throughout the capital the next day.

He sat in the lobby of the restaurant, eating the special food of the capital, and listening to other diners discussing the affairs of the Huangfu.

"...Only Mr. Huang's study burned in the entire Huang Mansion, and it didn't spread to other places at all. It's really strange. Such a big fire should have burned all the surrounding houses. In the end, only Mr. Huang was missing house, the fire went out, it's so strange."

"That's right, that's right. I heard that Master Huang was the only one killed in the fire, and none of the other people in Huang's mansion were burned to death except for those injured when fighting the fire."

"I heard people say that this may be retribution." The speaker lowered his voice.

"Well, well, it is said that ghosts have come to take revenge." The others also lowered their voices.

"I don't know what such an outrageous thing Mr. Huang did."

"Absolutely nothing good..."

"..."

Because of the bizarre death, Mr. Huang's reputation was greatly questioned, and the entire Huang family was affected.

Originally, the emperor wanted to give his confidant a posthumous honor, but after hearing the strange death of Mr. Huang and the folk rumors, he pressed his previous idea.

Of course, at this time the emperor still regarded Master Huang as his confidant, and he never thought that Master Huang had already betrayed him.

The emperor just had a headache who should give the position of Jiedushi in the capital.

This is related to the safety of the entire capital and his position as the emperor, and it must be handed over to the most trusted person.

And it was the fourth prince who was more troublesome than the emperor.

Lord Huang's taking refuge in the fourth prince is equivalent to the fourth prince controlling the capital in his own hands. Even if he really leads troops to force the palace, the fourth prince is sure of victory.

But now Master Huang died suddenly, the position of the capital governor changed hands, and returned to the emperor's hands, and the fourth prince lost control of the capital.

Want to win over the new Jiedushi, but I don't know if I can succeed.

The fourth prince's head was as big as a bucket, and many plans were almost shelved.

The prince didn't have any thoughts about Master Huang's death, he was just a courtier, so he died as he died.

Oh, this person is the uncle of the woman I love, so I will reluctantly ask my East Palace Changshi to go to the royal family to offer incense sticks on behalf of me.

To say that Master Huang had the greatest influence after his death, besides the Huang family, was the Second Young Wife of the Duke's Mansion, the Huang family.

Without the support of a powerful uncle, Huang's position as the head of the house is a bit shaky, and her sister-in-law has been eyeing the housekeeper's right and wants to take it away.

In the past, he was afraid of Huang's uncle, but now...

Jia Huan didn't know that killing an enemy would have such a big impact on the Duke's Mansion. After killing the most direct enemy, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Master Huang is the executor of Qin's plan, and he is the one who ordered the eradication of Jia's family.

On the contrary, the fourth prince didn't pay much attention to such an ant-like existence of the Jia family, and forgot about it when he turned his head.

After Master Huang died, he couldn't remember Jia's family even more.

He thought Master Huang had wiped out all the Jia family, but he didn't know that all the people sent by Master Huang had been killed by Jia Huan.

Once Master Huang died, the Jia family would be considered safe.

however……

Seeing the young man walking in front of him, Jia Huan also felt dizzy.

Why did Jia Heng come to the capital?

He took two steps forward, grabbed Jia Heng, and dragged him away.

"Second Brother? You really came to the capital." Seeing Jia Huan, Jia Heng was a little startled, then regained his composure.

Jia Huan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why did you come to the capital?"

Jia Heng: "I'm going to get married. In order to facilitate the marriage, I wrote a letter to ask my father-in-law to help me clear the bureaucracy and be transferred to the capital."

Jia Huan asked, "Dad, mother and sister Chen'er also came to the capital?"

Jia Heng: "Of course, my parents will help me prepare for my marriage."

Jia Huan frowned.

If Jia Heng didn't come to the capital, the fourth prince would definitely miss him and the Jia family.

But not only did he come to the capital, but he also wanted to marry the daughter of the Marquis Mansion. If the fourth prince found out, he would remember that he was from the Jia family...

Jia Huan raised his hand and rubbed his forehead.

Jia Heng pulled his hand from Jia Huan's and said softly: "Second brother, you don't want me and my parents to come to the capital, are you afraid that something will happen to us?"

Jia Huan raised his eyes and stared at Jia Heng.

Jia Heng also stared at Jia Huan, and whispered: "Brother's death was not an accident, right? You asked your parents to find me to keep them from danger, right? Did you find out something before you resigned?" Capital?"

Jia Huan knew that Jia Heng was smart, but he didn't expect that he would be able to discover something wrong with Jia Yan's death.

Jia Huan: "How did you find out?"

Jia Heng: "I heard Dad tell about the fire in the eldest brother's house. The fire was not normal, and it couldn't burn so fast, unless someone added something to support the combustion. In addition, when the corpses were collected at the end, the number was wrong. Although the corpse was moved out of the bedroom, who knows if it belongs to the Qin family, or his servant girl?"

Jia Heng continued: "I have always thought that Qin Shi is a woman who is restless in the house. The death of the eldest brother makes me suspect that Qin Shi did it with her adulterer."

Jia Huan raised his hand and patted Jia Heng's shoulder: "Since you know, why do you still come to the capital? Aren't you afraid that the people behind the scenes will attack you, your parents, and the others again, cutting grass and roots?"

Jia Heng said: "This is the capital, the people behind the scenes can't be so rampant. Besides, I'm the son-in-law of the Hou family, and I have the support of the Hou family."

Jia Huan: "Even the Hou Mansion can't afford to offend the person behind the scenes."

Jia Heng hurriedly asked: "Second brother, what do you know?"

Jia Huan sighed: "Don't regret it."

Jia Heng quickly shook his head: "I just want to know the truth, and I won't regret it."

Jia Huan took Jia Heng to his residence, told him about the Fourth Prince and Lord Huang, and told him about Qin's whereabouts.

Jia Heng was dumbfounded.

He didn't expect that his family would be related to the royal family's conspiracy.

It took a long time for Jia Heng to react.

He gritted his teeth: "I knew Qin Shi was not a good person. Eldest brother would regret marrying Qin Shi. Now, he doesn't even have the chance to regret it."

Jia Huan sighed: "I'm not speaking for the Qin family. Although she is easy-going, the death of the eldest brother was not caused by her, but by the Fourth Prince and Lord Huang."

Jia Heng raised his head sharply and stared at Jia Huan: "I heard about Mr. Huang being burned to death in his study as soon as I came to the capital. Did you do it?"

Jia Huan didn't deny it, but nodded, "I'm just treating him in the same way."

Jia Heng took a breath: "How did you do it? The Huang's Mansion is not the eldest brother's house. How did you complete this matter without being discovered?"
