Red Mansion Royal Cat

Chapter 282
In addition to the two letters from the Zhen family, there are also several letters that are mostly about exchanging benefits with the big families in Jiangnan, or simply discussing the distribution of spoils.

Two generations of emperors thought of ways to promote the sea, and the resistance in the court was beyond imagination.In the past, Jia Cong thought that those aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River who had made huge profits from smuggling stood behind those courtiers who opposed Kaihai, but now he understands that the Confucius family, the holy place of officialdom, is the biggest pusher of this matter.

"There is no content about the White Lotus Sect..."

After Jia Cong read the letters in the package, he felt that there were many things missing.

Ordinarily, since the Kong family was able to keep these letters on purpose, it is impossible to ignore the matter of the White Lotus Sect. It is not normal to say nothing at all.

He frowned and asked Jia Shixi where these things came from.

I only heard Jia Shishi say: "Xia Jiang said that he received a letter as soon as he arrived in Qufu, saying that there is a secret room hidden under the Kong Lin, and all the evidence of the Kong family's crimes is hidden there..."

"So this idiot almost dug the tomb of the saint? He didn't check who the person who submitted the letter was? Could it be that someone else was tricking him?"

Jia Cong looked at the "Jade Seal of Chuanguo", the account book and these letters in the package, and felt more and more confused.

What a waste of brains!

Jia Cong drank tea tactically to clear his mind, and carefully pondered the weirdness of this matter.

However, Jia Shishi's expression was a bit strange: "Actually, the people who submitted letters to Xia Jiang were sent by Master Thirteen in all likelihood!"

puff……

A mouthful of tea was sprayed out, and Jia Cong asked dumbfounded, "How do you know?"

"I didn't know at first, but Xia Jiang himself said that the person who submitted the letter shouted on the wall almost as if he was acting, and 'threw' a waist card of the Zhongxin Palace... This kind of obvious telling others to frame the Zhongxin King, the whole big Xia is the most familiar with Thirteenth Master."

Jia Shishi gave a wry smile, and continued to talk about the reason for his guess: "This time when he left Beijing, Lord Thirteen brought a lot of Dragon Guards out, but since he entered the territory of Yanzhou Mansion, his subordinates have rarely seen these people. .Combined with Thirteenth Master’s dislike for Xia Jiang, he can not only reveal the affairs of the Kong family, but also cheat Xia Jiang and Zhongxin Wangfu. As long as there is a chance, Thirteenth Master can really do it.”

It's the character of this dandy prince, but this time he also cheated Jia Cong.

Jia Cong had no choice but to support his forehead, but other things were fine, the "Jade Seal of Chuan Guo" on the table was a big trouble.

Because the Taizu was able to recruit one capable minister after another in those years, the destiny of the "Jade Seal of the Nation" in his hand was an extremely important factor.

So, can the piece in his hand still be real?Who dares to say it's true?
so distressed~
Jia Cong pondered for a long time, and finally put away the "Jade Seal of Chuanguo" alone, and ordered Jia Shixi to bring the master himself, and quickly sent it to Yanzhou to give it to Zhongshun King Liu Ke.

"Master, this is evidence..."

Jia Cong's doubts made Jia Cong laugh and cry, how dare he let this thing appear in front of the world.

Chuan Guo Yuxi, what this thing represents is so heavy that even Jia Cong had to take a step back temporarily.

"But I don't dare to show this evidence, and I have to erase the traces behind this matter for the Kong family. It is more disgusting than swallowing a fly alive. Uncle Eleven, let the brothers keep the secret, and you must not use it If this matter gets out, it might be a disaster of ransacking the family and destroying the family."

……

The matter in Qufu County is still fermenting. The Confucius family can stand in Shandong for thousands of years, not just relying on the signboard of the descendants of Confucius.

The in-laws and old relatives of the Confucian family are almost all over Shandong, and the big net has been extended to Jingji, Henan and Nanzhili, which are adjacent to Shandong.

In just a few days, many local officials have sent letters to the chief minister. Scholars from all over the country are all overwhelmed. Most of the local Confucian scholars have left for Qufu. They are all asking the chief minister what to do with the government and county government manage?
what to do?The chief envoy is also in a state of confusion. The Kong family even tied up the head of the internal government department and punished Jia Enhou's son severely?

Yang Shuzhen, the Zuo Buzheng of Shandong, read the official document sent by Jia Cong, and looked at each other with Chen Baoliang, the procurator of Si Yan.

The two were silent for a long time, Yang Shuzhen pushed the official document back in front of Chen Baoliang, and said worriedly: "Brother Dewen, in my opinion, we can't afford to get involved in this matter."

"What the Fantai said, the lower officials also understand. But the child of the Jia family said in the official document that he has already entered the capital, and it is inevitable that this matter will be heard by the heavens. If the lower officials do not go, it is negligence and negligence. Well, he will be accused of delaying the military plane."

The Kong family must not be offended, and the Jia family must not be offended, let alone the eunuchs involved. Chen Baoliang is caught in a dilemma.

But Jia Cong deliberately wrote in the official document that the memorial was sent to the capital six hundred miles away urgently, and he had to go if he didn't go.

Yang Shuzhen also followed Chen Baoliang into a wry smile, the children of Jia's family are really a monkey spirit, this is forcing their Shandong officials to stand in line.

"Since that's the case, I can only trouble Brother Dewen to go there..."

Seeing that Chen Baoliang was about to open his mouth, Yang Shuzhen whispered, "Brother Dewen only needs to...so so...that little boy from the Jia family is the one to decide everything. The merits and demerits have nothing to do with my Shandong. They are all done by the imperial envoys sent by His Majesty."

Chen Baoliang had some doubts: "Fantai, is it really okay for the lower officials to do this? What if they are blamed..."

Yang Shuzhen chuckled: "Do more and make more mistakes. It's good not to do. For thousands of years, has the Confucian family in Qufu committed few crimes? But have you ever seen which dynasty really punished the Confucian family? As long as this world, Today is the world of scholars!"

The matter of Qufu was quickly rushed to the capital by Jia Cong six hundred miles away. The Secretary of the General Administration just took a look at it and exploded. There was still no conclusion on the matter of the trial, so they rushed to write the impeachment memorial. execute.

As soon as the news got out, half a day later, hundreds of scholars gathered at the Confucian Temple in the capital, crying so much that they were so indignant that the children playing nearby were scared and hid at home.

Xia Jiang dug Kong Lin, and the palace was almost full of anger and complaints, but the emperor was unmoved, and no intention was spread.

Because the emperor looked at the two seals on the table, frowned and remained silent.

Xia Shouzhong had driven out the other servants in the hall long ago, and carefully served on the left and right.

The atmosphere in Qinzheng Hall was a bit oppressive, the emperor was silent for about a quarter of an hour, and suddenly burst out laughing.

"I'm going to panic because of one seal, it seems that I'm not calm enough. Companion, send this fake 'Jade Seal of Chuan Kingdom' to Dragon Head Palace, and ask Father to appreciate it."

what?
"My lord, is this fake?"

The emperor chuckled: "Isn't the Jade Seal of Chuanguo always kept by the Fengxi official? If it wasn't fake, wouldn't it be true that what Emperor Taizu got back then was fake?"

……

There was a lot of noise outside, but life in Rongguo Mansion was relatively peaceful.

After the three big Baoen Temple Dharma Conferences in March, everyone in Rongguo Mansion has resumed their lives of in-depth and easy going out.

But even so, Rongxitang still visits some close female relatives from time to time, especially two days ago, Princess Zhongshun Cui suddenly sent a post, saying that she would come in person today to visit the Madam of Rongguo Mansion.

The two prefectures had not been very close in the past, and they would sing the drama of seizing the throne. Although Liu Ke and Jia She had similar tastes, they had to avoid things that should be avoided.

The old lady is in much better spirits today, she specially changed into Chinese clothes, dressed up all the girls in the mansion, and waited in the Rongxi hall for the queen concubine and the phoenix to drive her.

Originally scheduled to come at the middle of the hour, unexpectedly Princess Cui arrived late at the third quarter of the hour.

"Madam Tai, please forgive me. Something happened suddenly in the mansion, which delayed a lot of time and made Madam Tai wait for a long time."

Cui's character is well-known for being knowledgeable and reasonable. As soon as she came up, she took the lead in saluting the old lady with the gift of a junior.

The old lady couldn't bear it, she hurriedly stepped aside to avoid the big gift, and bowed down with her daughter-in-law and granddaughter.

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone entered Rongxi Hall to sit down and talk.

Cui praised Sanchun, Xiangyun and Daiyu in the house one by one, and gave gifts one by one, giving the old lady enough face.

"People in Beijing say that the daughters brought up by Mrs. Tai are the best. Now that I look at them like this, I can't wait to take all of them home to be my daughters..."

While talking beautifully, Mrs. Cui looked at Yingchun, and looked at Yingchun ashamed.

The old lady is old and mature, looking at this scene, she has basically confirmed the reason why Princess Cui came to the house today.

This is because she has taken a fancy to Er Yatou, but the concubine only has the eldest son under her knees, and the elder son is betrothed. Could it be that Er Yatou is going to be the second concubine for her elder son?
The old lady felt nothing wrong, after all, the second girl was just a concubine...

But Jia Cong would never agree to this matter, maybe it would turn the mansion upside down, maybe he would call the door directly.

The two chatted for a while, and the old lady asked the girls in the house to go out to play under the hint of Princess Cui, and only Mrs. Yu Xing sat with her.

"Mrs. Tai should have seen it. I have taken a fancy to the second girl under your knees, and I want to protect this girl as a matchmaker."

Princess Cui's words made the old lady smile wryly in her heart, and she finally said it, but how dare I, an old woman, respond, I have to find an excuse to decline it.

I only heard Princess Cui say: "Mrs. Tai still remembers the Shu branch of Duke Li's mansion. People in Beijing call him the cold-faced gentleman Liu Erlang Liu Xianglian. Now he is an official of the five ranks and one thousand households in front of the imperial army. He came here two days ago. Wang Fu, please let me be a lobbyist, let me propose marriage to you on his behalf."

"Although the old woman is in charge of the family for the time being, her father is still in charge of the second girl's marriage. The princess might as well wait for my boss to come back... eh? Who is the princess talking about? Liu Xianglian?"

The old lady tossed and turned in her mind how to refuse without hurting her feelings, not wanting that the person Princess Cui spoke of was not the son of the royal family, but Liu Xianglian, the cold-faced gentleman who had just become famous.

Princess Cui nodded, and before the old lady could react, Mrs. Xing covered her mouth and exclaimed: "It turned out to be Liu Erlang, I just met him a few days ago at the Dabaoen Temple Dharma Conference, and he was the one who escorted me and Er Yatou and the others returned to Beijing. The refugees they encountered on the way were all sent away with the help of Liu Erlang."

"What Mrs. Hou said was that Liu Erlang had his thoughts on that day, so he was afraid that My Fair Lady would be begged away in advance, and ran to me and begged for a long time."

Princess Cui also covered her mouth and laughed, she seemed to have talked about something interesting with the old lady and Mrs. Xing, and continued: "Maybe the old lady doesn't know, I just said a few days ago that you said you wanted to show the second girl People, he was in a hurry, so he almost rushed to Rongguo Mansion to ask for marriage."

If Liu Xianglian really came directly to Rongguo Mansion to ask for marriage, he would be beaten out by the soldiers of Rongguo Mansion with sticks.

That's not marriage, that's enmity.

The old lady thought about Liu Xianglian's life experience. This child is a good child, with top-notch character and talent in Beijing.But his parents died early, and he was a member of the government of Liguo, so the old lady had a lot of worries in her heart.

"I've met this kid a few times. He's good friends with my brother Lian, Brother Cong, and Baoyu. If we only talk about this point, I think he is a good candidate."

Halfway through the old lady's speech, she said in a rather embarrassing way: "But since ancient times, the parents ordered the matchmaker to say that the old woman can't make up her mind about the second girl's marriage. She still has to let the boss come. And if you say something ugly about the family, the boss may If you can't be the master of the second girl's marriage, it's up to Brother Cong to make up his mind in the end."

Ok?
This time it was Princess Cui's turn to be shocked. If she remembers correctly, this second girl is Jia Cong's sister, right?
Grandmother, father and brother are all there, but the elder sister's marriage should be decided by the younger brother?The old lady is not using this to reject me perfunctorily, is she?

Princess Cui's face was a little unhappy, and the old lady naturally understood that there was a misunderstanding.

The old lady was sobbing, and she talked about the past with Princess Cui.

"Brother Cong was three years old that year. The old lady was busy with the housekeeping and didn't pay attention. His father, that bastard, spent every day drunk. How did he know that he had a son who was so sick that he almost lost his breath. Second girl At that time, he was only in his early six years old, and he used spoonfuls of soup and rice porridge to snatch Brother Cong back from Lord Yan's hands."

The old lady blushed as she spoke. It is true that she was busy with the housekeeping, but she didn't care about the grandson at home...

Alas, I really lost my head at that meeting, and almost missed the last chance for the Rongguo Mansion to rise again.

Princess Cui was surprised when she heard it, and sighed again and again.

She thought that the good son Jia Enhou had always held in his hands had grown up in Fuwo, so she would never have thought that Jia Cong still had such an experience.

The old lady continued: "So, as long as Brother Da Cong can remember, in his heart, no one in the house can surpass his second sister. If the old woman makes an appointment with the second girl without his consent, I will I'm worried that after he returns to Beijing, he will run to make trouble in the palace. Not to mention my wife, even my eldest son can't control him."

hiss!
Concubine Cui now finally understands the old lady's concerns, not to mention, if Jia Cong can't be satisfied, this guy will definitely be able to make a big disturbance in the palace.

After all, behind this kid stands his father-in-law, the Supreme Emperor of Dragon Head Palace!
But while Concubine Cui was distressed, she was also overjoyed.

Jia Cong's future is limitless, if he cares about his sister so much, it will be even more beneficial for Erlang to marry the second girl of Rongguo Mansion.
