Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 339 Inexplicable words

Seeing that the other party had slowed down, Jia Rui said with a smile: "You have seen how powerful this life and death talisman is. If I want to betray you in the future, I will be worse than death."

Jianchen gasped and said with difficulty: "The adults are all-powerful, and I don't dare to have any second thoughts."

Jia Rui sat back on the chair again, and then said with a smile: "This is just a talisman of life and death. The medicine I gave you just now is called the Three Corpses Brain Pill. It usually doesn't happen, but every year at noon of the Dragon Boat Festival, if you don't take it, you can't restrain yourself." It turns out that as soon as the potency of the medicine wears off, the "corpse bugs" will come out. Once they enter the brain, they can make people act arrogantly and upside down, even worse than a mad dog. They act more like ghosts and monsters, and even their parents and wives will bite them. Come and eat.”

When Taoist Jianchen heard this, he was trembling with fear.

He thought that the life and death talisman was already a great means, but after hearing the three zombie brain pills, he really felt scared.

The life and death talisman only affects his body, but the three zombie brain pills can make him become neither human nor ghost.

Jianchen said tremblingly: "Xiaodao understands what you mean. From now on, I will never dare to violate your orders."

"It's good that you know."

Then Jia Rui stood up and said to the soldiers in the room: "Arrange a residence for Jianchen next to your yard. From now on, he will live there."

Then Jia Rui said to Taoist Jianchen: "If you need anything during practice, just tell me, and I can find it for you as long as it is available in the world."

Jia Rui also gave a sweet date a slap in the face. At first, he used the Talisman of Life and Death and the Three Corpse Brain Pill to make the other person feel in awe, and then gave the other person some benefits to eliminate the resentment in his heart.

Jianchen Taoist admires Jia Rui now?

If he first defected to Jia Rui and wanted to use Jia Rui's power to take revenge on the Zhen family, then he has completely surrendered now.

Then Jia Rui waved his hand and left the flower hall with his soldiers.

After that, Jia Rui sat in the flower hall for a while, thinking about what happened during this period in his mind, and then he left with peace of mind and went back to the back house to rest.

Jia Rui woke up in Sister You's arms.

Sanjie You had actually woken up early, but she didn't disturb Jia Rui. It wasn't until Jia Rui opened her eyes that Sanjie You got up and changed her clothes.

Jia Rui stretched, then sat up from the bed. Naturally, a maid came over to help Jia Rui wash up, and then changed into regular clothes. Then Jia Rui and Sister You had breakfast, and then walked out from her place and went straight to Xue Baochai. 's yard.

After entering Xue Baochai's courtyard, he saw the maids inside looking relaxed.

This is completely different from what Jia Rui saw a few days ago. The previous maids all frowned, as if they were nervous.

As soon as Jia Rui entered the door, he saw Brother Ying hurriedly coming out of the room, getting dressed as he walked.

"Who is on duty today, why didn't you call me?" Brother Ying complained while getting dressed.

Jia Rui shook his head, stood in the yard and said, "My little aunt has such a bad temper, who dares to call you?"

When Brother Ying heard Jia Rui's voice, there was a burst of surprise on his face, and then he jumped to Jia Rui's side.

"Uncle, are you here so early?" Brother Ying said, already holding Jia Rui's arm and shaking it.

Jia Rui had nothing to do with the little girl. Although he knew that she was arrogant because of her favor, Jia Rui just couldn't harden his heart.

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble, let me see how your grandma is doing."

As he spoke, Jia Rui walked to the main room.

Brother Ying did not let go of Jia Rui's arm, he just held it and followed Jia Rui into the main room.

When I entered the room, I saw that Ying'er was taking a few maids to serve Xue Baochai in dressing up.

Xue Baochai, who was in front of the dressing mirror, heard the doorbell ring, turned around and saw Jia Rui coming in, and immediately gave him a big smile.

At this time, Brother Ying was much more honest and had already let go of Jia Rui's arm.

Jia Rui took advantage of this moment to come behind Xue Baochai in a few steps, hugged her from behind, and asked gently: "Did you rest well yesterday?"

Xue Baochai leaned his head back, and then said: "I finally had a good night's rest yesterday."

"You don't have to worry anymore. Master Li has already solved the problem, and I have also invited a capable Taoist priest to come to my house to take charge. This kind of thing will never happen again in our house."

Xue Baochai was pleasantly surprised after hearing this, "Really? That's great."

The couple chatted for a while, and then Jia Rui accompanied Xue Baochai to have a few more bites of breakfast, and then hurried to the cabinet.

Today Jia Rui is relieved of his worries, so after entering the cabinet, even when he saw his old enemy Chen Guozi, he felt that the old man was much cuter than before.

Chen Guozi was also a little confused. Could it be that the sun came out from the west? Why did Jia Rui say hello to him after meeting today?

Next it’s boring work time again.

Jia Rui looked at the memorial absentmindedly and yawned.

At this time, Xu Biao walked up to Jia Rui with a memorial.

"Master Jia, this is a memorial to ask for money. I'm not sure. See if you can approve it."

Jia Rui reached out and took the memorial, looked at it carefully, and then frowned.

It turned out that this was an urgent memorial sent by the Prince of Nan'an County. I have been working in Tianjin for several months and have spent more than one million yuan, and I am asking the court for money again.

But why did this memorial fall into Xu Biao's hands? Shouldn't Chen Guozi send it to him?

Thinking of this, Jia Rui looked at old man Chen Guozi sitting beside him.

I only saw that he seemed not to have heard what Jia Rui and Xu Biao said, and he was still pretending to correct the memorial. If you didn't know, people would think he was serious.

Jia Rui shook his head gently.

I'm in a good mood today, so I won't make trouble with this old man.

In addition, the Supreme Emperor has already spoken, and there is no need to block the memorial to Prince Nan'an.

Therefore, Jia Rui was very happy and approved another five hundred thousand taels of silver to Prince Nan'an.

"Okay, there is no need to send this memorial to the Supreme Emperor's family. Just go directly to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to collect the money." Jia Rui threw the memorial to Xu Biao.

Xu Biao nodded, then walked up to Chen Guozi with the memorial and threw the memorial on his table.

"Master Chen, what happens next is up to you." After Xu Biao finished speaking, he ignored Chen Guozi and turned back to his seat.

It turns out that although Xu Biao is pedantic, he is not a fool either.

Originally, this memorial should have been given to Chen Guozi for him to handle, but it somehow fell into his hands.

As a cabinet minister, he had to deal with the memorial when it came into his hands, so he had to bite the bullet and go to Jia Rui. Fortunately, Jia Rui was reasonable and approved the money directly without any embarrassment.

However, Xu Biao still had a temper and threw the memorial directly to Chen Guozi, which was a clear distinction between him and Chen Guozi in person.

Jia Rui was sitting on top and saw this interesting scene, and felt that Xu Biao could still be used to win over him.

The morning passed quickly. During the meal, Jia Rui slipped out and came to the Dragon Head Palace.

After entering the main hall, I saw the Supreme Emperor having lunch.

When the Emperor saw Jia Rui coming in, he had a smile on his face and said, "Have you eaten? If not, come and eat with me."

Jia Rui moved over with a playful smile, "Weichen knew that it was time for the Emperor to eat at this time, so he came here specifically to eat."

"Haha, you little hozen, you can't afford to wake up early if you don't have any profit!"

While talking and laughing, the Supreme Emperor ordered Zhao Jin to arrange a seat for Jia Rui opposite his table, and at the same time sent him bowls and chopsticks.

As soon as Jia Rui sat down, he immediately opened his cheeks and started eating and drinking. He was not at all as reserved as other ministers when facing the Supreme Emperor.

The Emperor liked Jia Rui's appearance, so he felt happy and ate half a bowl of rice more.

After finishing the meal, the monarch and his ministers came to the side hall, where the Supreme Emperor sat on the Kang and began to drink tea.

"Is the well in your house clean?"

When Jia Rui heard the question from the Supreme Emperor, he quickly replied: "Li Shenxian is indeed very powerful. Xiao Xiao immediately fled far away. Everything is safe in the palace."

The Supreme Emperor nodded lightly. In fact, he already knew the past from Li Shenxian's mouth yesterday.

"What are you going to do about Jianchen?" the Supreme Emperor asked slowly while drinking tea.

Although Jia Rui was surprised in his heart, it didn't show on the surface. He still said as straightforwardly as before:

"Wei Chen was frightened this time. Since the other party surrendered, I will naturally treat him with courtesy. Who knows if this kind of thing will happen again in the future. I can't trouble the Supreme Emperor every time, right?"

The Emperor was very happy when he heard what Jia Rui said so straightforwardly. Jia Rui really wouldn't lie in front of him.

It turns out that the Supreme Emperor already knew about Jia Rui's taking in Jian Chen yesterday through spies. The reason why he said that just now was just to test Jia Rui.

"It's not a big deal, just keep it." The Supreme Emperor didn't care at all about Jian Chen, a little person.

However, the Supreme Emperor still sighed and said to Jia Rui: "Don't think too much about some things. I'm afraid that if you think about it too much, everything will be fine when you don't think about it. If you think about it, you will get into trouble."

Jia Rui was not really stupid. He had already heard from the Supreme Emperor's tone that he told him not to care about the Zhen family.

Jia Ruizhen was a little confused, "Your Majesty, what kind of psychological activity is this?"

You said that the Supreme Emperor still favored the Zhen family. Concubine Zhen was now terminally ill. You said that he did not favor the Zhen family. He also asked Jia Rui not to argue with the Zhen family.

Although Nao didn't understand what the Emperor meant, it didn't stop Jia Rui from pretending to be honest in front of the Emperor.

"Wei Chen is a little confused and doesn't understand what the Emperor is talking about." As he said this, Jia Rui touched his forehead in annoyance, looking like he was really confused.

　My blood pressure is still high today. I coded these two chapters last night and this morning. I just rested during the day, it was so uncomfortable.
