Red Mansion Jia Enhou

Another siege ended in failure.

There were almost no casualties in the Great Chu, but nearly one-third of the Tatars who came to attack the city died.

The soldiers leaned against the city wall tiredly. As the tension passed, they couldn't help but close their eyes to digest the tense and exciting emotions.

The fierce attack lasted for more than an hour and the defense was changed four times.

The logs and hot water that were carried up to the city wall were unknown.

The city gates were opened and Niu Ben ordered his men to go down and clean up the battlefield.

A fierce conflict broke out in the Tatar camp, and Sotu was stripped of his position as prime minister.

Suotu also officially began to plan to seize the Khan's throne. Jia She received a letter from an unexpected person from the Shenjing while in Yumen Pass.

Jia She looked down at the letter in his hand. No wonder he felt like he heard Jia Zheng's voice that day. It turned out that Jia Zheng had really been exiled to the northwest.

"Brother pardon!"

Niu Ben, who had won another battle, came to see Jia She with wine in hand.

Looking at Jia She's slightly heavy expression, Niu Ben's heart subconsciously skipped a beat.

Could something have happened?

Niu Ben's cheerful voice suddenly stopped and he ran towards Jia She.

Hearing the sound, Jia She looked up and saw that it was Niu Ben coming.

Jia She subconsciously closed the letter in his hand.

"Why is Brother Niu here?"

Jia She stood up from his chair. Niu Ben didn't say anything, his eyes always on the letter in Jia She's hand.

Jia She noticed it and realized that Niu Ben had misunderstood, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"This is my brother's letter home. It's not Brother Niu who wants anything to happen!"

Listening to Jia She's explanation, Niu Ben couldn't help but put his hands on his head and smiled without thinking any more.

"But what happened at home?"

Jia She sat down and shook his head at Niu Ben.

"Nothing happened!"

Nothing happened, why do you have such an expression on your face?

Niu Ben looked at Jia She's expression and became more cautious.

"You and I grew up together, there's really no need for you to hide it from me."

"I have heard a lot about your family from my wife. Your sister-in-law is not someone who can really take charge. Now that our men are all out there, our family has become the weakest point."

"We should help each other!"

Jia She was somewhat touched.

Niu Ben helped him a lot, and Jia She stood up again.

"Brother, you really misunderstood. Nothing really happened in my family."

"My mother wrote to me, saying that she was cheated out of money by the Nan'an Concubine, and asked me to help her out and take care of Jia Zheng who was exiled to the northwest."

A look of shock flashed in Niu Ben's eyes.

"Jia Zheng was exiled to the northwest?"

Jia She nodded to Niu Ben.

"This is surprising, but do you still need my brother's help to deal with him?"

There is no need to explain the implication of this statement.

Jia She remained silent and let Jia Zheng die so easily, which was obviously not what he wanted.

"No need, Brother Niu, let him fend for himself!"

The days of exile for prisoners were not easy. In addition to daily training, they also had to do a lot of chores.

It was obviously too easy to deal with him so easily.

"Master Hou!"

Outside Jia She's tent, the sound was heard again, and Jia She walked out of the tent.

The soldier appeared in front of Jia She with a yamen runner.

"My Lord, someone from the government office is looking for you."

There was a look of confusion in Jia She's eyes. What did the people from the yamen come to see him for?
The bailiff came forward and saluted Jia She.

"Greetings, Lord Rong!"

Jia She nodded slightly.

"What do you want to see me for?"

Jia She frowned. He had not caused any trouble at Yumen Pass.

Why did this person from Yumenguan Yamen look for him for some unknown reason?
Jia She was confused.

The bailiff began to explain.

"My Lord, there has been a headless female corpse in the government office."

Jia She’s brows were getting tighter and tighter. A headless female corpse was coming to find him?
The bailiff took out a jade pendant.

When Mrs. Wang was sent back to Da Chu, the clothes she wore were all made of good material.

The yamen kept Madam Wang's body, hoping that if she really came from a wealthy family, as long as someone claimed her, the yamen runners would get a reward.

Until Jia She entered the city, Mrs. Wang's identity remained a mystery.

"My Lord, look at this piece of jade. Is it from the Rongguo Mansion?"

Jia She took a casual glance and felt numb.

He knew that this thing belonged to Rongguo Mansion without even looking at it.

Like some big families, the Jia family also likes to make something like that as a symbol of their status.

Jia She took the jade pendant from the bailiff's hand and rubbed it.

"I am a criminal woman in my house. Three months ago, she set fire to the dungeon and was rescued."

“Where was her body found?”

The mood of the yamen runners dropped. It was in vain that they preserved the corpse so well, as it turned out to be a guilty woman.

The bailiff's expression instantly changed from laughing to not laughing.

If they had known she was a criminal, they would have dumped the body into a mass grave as soon as they received the report.

"My Lord, would you like to go over and take a look?"

Jia She remained silent, and after thinking for a long time, he spoke again.

"Go and have a look!"

Jia She had known for a long time that Lady Wang was dead, and he knew how she died. But who would have thought that such a body outside the pass could be picked up by someone.

We really have to thank those Hu merchants.

The Hu merchants did not understand and only saw that the clothes were from the Great Chu and were gorgeous, so they thought that the lady of that family had been murdered, so they reported the case.

Don’t you think about it, how many wives from really big families would appear outside the border like Yumen Pass?

Jia She met Mrs. Wang, who had died in a very tragic way.

From its stiff limbs, it is not difficult to see that it died of great fright. Looking at its broken neck, it is clear that its head was chopped off by someone.

Before being hacked to death, it is possible that he was not completely dead and still had a little consciousness.

Lin Zhongping, the nephew of Lin Zhixiao who followed Jia She, stepped forward to ask Mrs. Wang about her handling of the matter.

Jia She took a quick glance and saw that it was already a headless female corpse. What else could he do with it?

"Burn it into ashes and put it in a jar!"

Jia She gave instructions to Lin Zhongping, and Lin Zhongping was about to do it, but was stopped by Jia She.

"Order someone to call Jia Zheng over!"

Jia She gave instructions to Lin Zhongping again, and then left.

After receiving the order, Lin Zhongping sent someone to find Jia Zheng.

After a while, Jia Zheng was called out by the soldiers. Until he arrived at the yamen, Jia Zheng was in a daze.

Until they arrived at the yamen, they saw Mrs. Wang's body.

At this moment, Jia Zheng finally understood why he was called here.

Jia Zheng, who had been married to Lady Wang for twenty or thirty years, would recognize her even if she turned into ashes.

Now Mrs. Wang appeared before him without a head. Even though Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang disliked each other, the impact was still terrifying.

Jia Zheng fainted instantly.

Lin Zhongping, who was hiding in the dark, saw Jia Zheng's appearance and couldn't help shaking his head.

You don't cherish someone when they are still around, but now that they are gone, you act like you are deeply affectionate.

Who are you doing this for?
"Go wake him up!"

Lin Zhongping patted the servant beside him, and the servant reacted and turned his gaze to Lin Zhongping.

"Can you tell the second master that our master knows that he was exiled to the northwest, Manager Lin?" Lin Zhongping turned his head with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

Then he looked me up and down and asked, "Are you a spy sent by the enemy?"

Lin Zhongping slapped the servant on the head.

"Has your head been pecked by a bird?"

The servant lowered his head, with a look of grievance in his eyes.

He just asked, as for beating people?
"Wake him up!"

Lin Zhongping then ordered the servant, who ran over and began to pinch Jia Zheng's philtrum. After a while, Jia Zheng was awakened.

After waking up, Jia Zheng ignored everyone else and ran to where Lady Wang's headless body was lying.

Jia Zheng looked at it in shock.

How could Wang die just like that?
As Jia Zheng watched, tears began to fall from his eyes.

The servant ran back to Lin Zhongping.

Lin Zhongping calculated the time and when he saw that it was almost time, he called the soldier who had brought Jia Zheng with him and asked him to drag Jia Zheng away.

The soldier agreed quickly, and the silver in Lin Zhongping's hand fell into the soldier's hand.

"Before this person came here, the crime he committed was to protect a person who betrayed his country and collaborated with the enemy. Do you understand what I mean?"

Lin Zhongping's eyes fell on the soldier who brought Jia Zheng here. The soldier looked at Jia Zheng and answered happily.

"understand!"

The sins have been told to you, what else do you not understand?

This old guy must have offended someone, so someone paid him to deal with him.

"Don't kill anyone!"

Lin Zhongping gave his instructions again and the soldier nodded.

"Don't worry, sir. I won't let anyone die, or we will be in trouble!"

Lin Zhongping nodded, he really didn't know what the old lady in his family was thinking.

Jia Zheng and his master have an irreconcilable feud, but he actually asks his master to help take care of him.

Are you sure you don't want to kill Jia Zheng?

Lin Zhongping led his men to guard it.

The soldier took the silver in his hand and gave a piece to the people who came with him.

"That old guy offended someone, and some big shots paid to make him suffer."

The soldier who was speaking clapped his hand on the other soldier, who nodded in understanding.

"The time has come, let's go!"

The soldiers did as Lin Zhongping ordered, and Jia Zheng was still crying beside Wang Fu-ren's headless body.

The two men looked at each other, and each of them grabbed Jia Zheng.

"We were only given half an hour to get out. Now half an hour is up. It's time to go back."

Jia Zheng was grabbed and dragged away.

Following Jia She's instructions, Lin Zhongping took Mrs. Wang's body out, and then set off a thick smoke and fire outside the city.

Mrs. Wang's body, which had been left there for so long, began to make crackling sounds.

Lin Zhongping covered his nose and watched. After a while, Mrs. Wang's body was completely burned to ashes.

Master Jia Zheng returned to the charge camp, and the sergeant of the charge camp was called out.

After listening to the soldiers' instructions, the sergeant of the assault battalion looked at Jia Zheng with a completely changed look.

He sheltered a traitor but was only sentenced to exile. This man's identity is a bit strange.

Then the sergeant of the assault battalion remembered what Jia Zheng had insisted. Now he believed it, but there were people who didn't want Jia Zheng to have an easy time.

The sergeant of the assault battalion understood that Jia Zheng had offended a powerful person.

Whoever sees it gets a share, and the soldier takes out a small piece of silver and gives it to him.

"Don't spread rumors"

The sergeant of the assault battalion looked down and walked back to the tent in silence.

When Jia Zheng was sent back, he hugged his quilt and started crying.

The sergeant of the assault battalion watched as a small piece of silver in his hand began to be thrown up and down.

Everyone in the same tent saw this scene, and they stared at it without blinking, but no one dared to snatch it.

"Where did you get this silver?"

Everyone walked towards the sergeant of the assault battalion. The silver in his hand was no longer thrown around, but was just stared at.

"Someone doesn't want him to have an easy life!"

The sergeant of the assault battalion's eyes fell on Jia Zheng. After listening to his words, everyone understood instantly.

This silver is the money to buy Jia Zheng's life.

"What on earth does it mean, what length?"

A crowd began to ask questions even though they already knew the answer, but the sergeant in the assault battalion remained silent.

"Who doesn't want him to have an easy life?"

The sergeant in chief of the assault battalion remained silent.

Now it was the turn of others to remain silent. Who did that old guy offend?

So much so that their leader didn't even dare to reveal it to them.

"come here!"

The sergeant of the assault battalion shouted at Jia Zheng who was lying on the big bunk bed. Although Jia Zheng was crying, his ears were pricked up all the time, and every word of the sergeant of the assault battalion was heard by Jia Zheng without missing a word.

It would be a lie for Jia Zheng to say he was not panicking, but he was now a fish on the chopping board. What else could he do except passively accept it?
Jia Zheng stood up from the big bunk bed and stood in front of the sergeant of the assault battalion.

"who are you?"

The sergeant of the assault battalion asked Jia Zheng a question, and everyone in his tent turned their eyes to Jia Zheng.

Knowing what the sergeant of the assault battalion was asking, Jia Zheng took a deep breath.

The silence at this moment made everyone in the tent hold their breath.

"Third son, five or six, go and guard outside the tent!"

Under the order of the sergeant of the assault battalion, two prisoners named Sanzi and Wuliu went out and are now safe.

No need to worry about being overheard.

"Can I trust you brothers?"

The sergeant of the assault battalion looked at the other people in the tent, who were now confused.

They really didn't know what was going on.

"Jia Zheng, you get out too!"

The sergeant in chief of the assault battalion gave the order again.

After defending the city, Jia Zheng, who was afraid of the captain of the assault battalion, left.

The sergeant of the assault battalion stopped talking nonsense.

"Brothers, that old guy seems to be the younger brother of Lord Rong."

The sergeant in charge of the assault battalion's words caused a huge uproar, but then, under his gaze, they all lowered their voices.

"How could that boy be possible? If he was the brother of Marquis Rong, how could he end up like this?"

The sergeant of the assault battalion took out the silver that the soldier had just given him.

"How does exile compare to beheading?"

The sergeant of the assault battalion gave a wry smile, it turned out that he had always been the clown.

Exile is someone else's offline.

If one committed a capital crime, how could he be exiled?

Everyone's brows were frowning more and more tightly.

"What exactly does the commander want to say?"

He stared at the sergeant of the assault battalion in front of him.

"I told you all, there are people who don't want him to have an easy life, but they can't take his life."

"That guy is still a big shot!"

"Now the matter falls on us. Exile doesn't mean we can't go back."

"If we torture him to death here, and he gets out, what will happen to us?"

The sergeant of the assault battalion raised a question, which not only puzzled everyone but also made people very angry.

"Damn it, those people did it on purpose. Did they know about it a long time ago?"

"Give it to us, and let us offend?" (End of this chapter)
