The Red Mansion Big Liar

But since Jia Zheng had said so, she couldn't object.

Chapter 126 Qin Keqing's Proposal

The lights are just coming on in Tianxiang Tower.

Qin Keqing, wearing a hip-length halter dress, was doing squats on the bed in a methodical manner.

Although she was in mourning during this period, she was not idle. Instead, she found time to make two more suspender skirts. However, the skirts became shorter and shorter, and could no longer cover her graceful figure.

The hem of her skirt fluttered up and down. Zhang Yunyi, who was lying on the bed, was admiring the beautiful scenery in front of him, but he was afraid that she would be exhausted and her legs would be unstable, so he kept his hand raised carefully to protect her.

While exercising, he informed Qin Keqing of the final outcome of the corruption case in the Ministry of Works.

"The murderer has never been caught, and ultimately no other crime can be convicted."

After hearing this, Qin Keqing became obviously emotionally unstable and her movements became much larger.

"However, the demotion and refund of silver are enough to make them suffer."

Zhang Yunyi took a breath and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, this is just the beginning. Without money and titles, their good days are over. Now, the servants in the mansion should also see the direction of the wind..."

In bringing down the Ning Mansion, the two had the same goal. The strategy of cutting off their financial resources and chopping off their arms was also something Zhang Yunyi had discussed with her in private.

Although external relationships were not affected because Dai Quan took the blame, after this incident, the servants in the mansion would never obey Jia Zhen's wishes again.

Qin Keqing said sympathetically, "Uncle...Uncle, don't blame yourself. There's nothing we can do about it. After all, you are the nephew of the mansion. Without real evidence, it's not good to confront them openly."

She took a deep breath, squatted down deeply, and took hold of Zhang Yunyi's big hand that was supporting her body, and pulled him up from the bed.

Then he leaned forward and slowly knelt down.

Turning back, she smiled charmingly and said, "Uncle, if you feel that your revenge has not been taken and you are still upset, feel free to vent your anger on Keqing."

In fact, the day after receiving Qin Keqing's letter of accusation, Zhang Yun逸 lied to her that he had already entered the palace and submitted it to the emperor, and told her that the emperor would let Dai Quan take the blame, so she could rest assured.

However, she seemed determined to use herself to disgust the Ning family.

Moreover, it seemed that he had tasted a different kind of pleasure of revenge. Whenever he felt depressed, he would use this as an outlet and drag Zhang Yunyi to perform this kind of drama, and he never got tired of it.

As it was inconvenient to tell her the specific details, Zhang Yunyi felt guilty and had to try his best to meet her small request.

After stopping the strenuous squatting and instead kneeling down to be punished, Qin Keqing finally recovered a little.

While kneeling on the bed and grunting like a dog, he did not forget to encourage them: "Well! If they learn from their mistakes and behave themselves, uncle might consider Keqing's suggestion."

Speaking of tucking her tail, she also did not forget to tuck her legs together.

This made Zhang Yun逸 physically and mentally disturbed.

The so-called method is actually to use a substitute to replace a dead person and give Ningguo Mansion a blood transfusion.

That night, when the origin of the divorce letter was mentioned, Jia Rong's expression could not help but add to the fun.

At first, when Qin Keqing heard Jia Rong's proposal to register under a given name, she naturally scoffed.

But she couldn't escape the law of true fragrance. Ever since she decided to use herself to disgust the Ning Mansion, she used this as an excuse to propose to give Zhang Yunyi a son, thus achieving her goal of occupying the magpie's nest in disguise.

But Zhang Yunyi knew that the Ningguo Mansion would eventually fall, so there was no need for this.

However, not only did it involve the King of Qin, but it was also difficult to explain how he could have known this foresight, so it was not easy for Zhang Yun逸 to tell the truth, and he could only give perfunctory words.

He originally planned to wait until she had calmed down, then show the divorce letter to everyone, and officially take her in, giving her the status of a concubine.

Unexpectedly, she was so persistent, always holding on to it and bringing it up whenever she had the chance.

Zhang Yunyi was also a little annoyed and couldn't help but lower his head to think about how to dispel her idea from the root.

Seeing that he was silent and only pondered, Qin Keqing thought he was hesitant and tried to persuade him, "Now that our family has almost no income, we will have to rely on our uncle even more in the future. Jia Rong is a shameless coward. I'm afraid he will not only accept it reluctantly, but also have to be treated with care."

"Pah!" Zhang Yunyi slapped the round and perky breasts with his palm and said righteously, "No! That would mess up the order of generations!"

You know what, he actually thought of a reason that could completely dissuade her from having this idea.

"I said I would bring them down. Don't you believe me? If you really get pregnant, I won't be able to follow your temper!"

Qin Keqing was blinded by hatred, and she didn't think too much about it as long as she could disgust the Ning family.

After hearing what Zhang Yunyi said, I suddenly realized the issue of seniority.

However, she did not give up. Instead, she giggled and said, "Then uncle has to put more effort into my mother-in-law!"

Knowing the feud between Zhang Yun逸 and Ning Mansion, Qin Keqing became suspicious of him transferring the profits of sugar to Youshi.

Zhang Yunyi saw that she intended to disgust the Ning family, but he could not resist her repeated questioning. Besides, if you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. He could hide it for a while, but not for a lifetime.

Besides, he also coveted the happiness of having two wives, so he went along with it and told the truth.

Seeing that she had no hope, Qin Keqing turned her attention to Youshi.

She felt something in her heart, and hurriedly said, "Well! If it is inconvenient for mother-in-law to live in Doufengxuan, why not ask her to move to Tianxianglou and live with Keqing? As long as uncle can convince mother-in-law, Keqing will be willing to serve uncle with her!"

As if she felt that it was not yet enough, Qin Keqing said in a tender voice: "The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Ningguo Mansion let uncle do whatever he wants. Uncle should like it more!~"

I thought I would have to spend a lot of effort to convince him, but unexpectedly, he actually asked for it on his own initiative. Zhang Yunyi was afraid that if he missed this opportunity, he would never have the chance again, so there was no time for pretense.

Immediately demonstrated the attitude through practical actions.

After a burst of shouting at the top of their lungs, the two finally stopped talking.

After they both came to their senses, Zhang Yunyi hugged Qin Keqing and said, "I have talked to the Jinyiwei, and we can bury Lord Qin and the others tomorrow. I will go with you then."

Originally, the case was not over yet and the body was kept as evidence. In addition, Qin Ye was a criminal and could not be buried easily.

However, after more than a month, the case ended up with much ado about nothing. In addition, it was the middle of summer and it was very difficult to preserve the body, so he just did him a favor.

Qin Keqing turned around and snuggled into his arms, hugging him with open arms.

She was worried that the letter of accusation would be leaked, so she thought about it and shook her head, saying, "Uncle, don't go, lest you be hated by others. After the funeral, uncle can accompany me to pay tribute when he is free!"

More than a month has passed, let alone the first seven days, even the seventh day has passed, so there is no need to worry about funeral arrangements.

Besides, it is inconvenient to bury a married daughter.

However, since the Qin family was wiped out, these matters could only be handled by her, the adopted daughter.

"I'm worried that you can't see that scene."

Qin Keqing trembled slightly and said in a trembling voice, "I can't bear to watch it either. Ask the servants to restrain themselves!"

Zhang Yunyi nodded and said, "Okay! Then let Baozhu and Ruizhu accompany you tomorrow, and let sister-in-law arrange the staff for you."

Chapter 127 Passionate Jia Zheng

The next day, Zhang Yun逸 received another invitation from Jia Zheng.

This time, he had no reason to refuse, and he came to Rongguo Mansion as agreed the next night.

"Don't blame me, uncle. I was really a bit overwhelmed recently."

:' "This is serious. My dear nephew is so loyal and righteous that he has done so much for my elder brother. I am ashamed of myself."

Putting aside the two hats put on the Ning Mansion and the secret calculations, the character created with real money is indeed very convincing.

"Uncle, what are you talking about? You work in the Ministry of Industry. Although you are untainted by mud, you can't avoid being in the melon field. It's more convenient for me than for my nephew."

This sentence really hit Jia Zheng's sore spot, and he couldn't hide his satisfaction and smiled happily.

After some polite exchanges, Jia Zheng pulled him through the corridor and the hall and headed straight for the backyard.

"We are all family, this is a family dinner, there is no need to stick to the conventions."

Zhang Yunyi would not object, so he took the opportunity to ask, "I wonder why Uncle called Yunyi here?"

"No hurry, no hurry, let's eat and talk later."

As they were talking, they walked to the back corridor of the Ti'ren Mude courtyard, and saw Mrs. Wang standing in front of the courtyard gate.

Zhang Yun逸 quickly saluted.

Mrs. Wang returned the greeting and then said to Jia Zheng, "Master, the food is ready!"

Jia Zheng's expression froze.

Mrs. Wang smiled and explained, "The master didn't tell me to do that this time. I was worried that he had forgotten to make arrangements, so I took the initiative to prepare a table. If the master has somewhere else to go, it doesn't matter if we leave here."

With the experience from last time, Mrs. Wang did not ask Jia Zheng how to make arrangements this time, but simply sat back and waited.

This caught Jia Zheng off guard. He had wanted to avoid Lady Wang, so he had made all the arrangements in Aunt Zhao's courtyard.

However, in front of Zhang Yunyi, she was too embarrassed to leave her mistress and go to the concubine's courtyard to entertain the guests, so she had to be forced into the courtyard by Madam Wang.

After entering the side hall, he suppressed his dissatisfaction and waved his hand, saying, "My nephew and I have something to say. We don't need anyone to serve us here. You all can go down!"

"Then ask them to guard the door..."

"No need!" Jia Zheng was quite impatient.

From his tone, Mrs. Wang knew that her actions had caused Jia Zheng's dissatisfaction. She didn't want to cause him any more trouble, so she hurriedly left with her maids.

After leaving the side hall, Caixia followed out and glanced at Madam Wang, and said cautiously, "Since the master is staying here, do you want to go and tell Aunt Zhao?"

As the mistress of Rongguo Mansion, how could she hide Aunt Zhao's preparations from her?

Glancing at Caixia, he said coldly: "Since the master didn't give any instructions, he must have other plans. There is no need to do this."

Caixia quickly lowered her head and dared not speak.

After returning to the house, Mrs. Wang hurriedly told Jin Chuan to prepare two side dishes and asked her to bring a pot of wine.

He had originally planned to take advantage of Zhang Yunyi and, during the dinner, follow the same pattern as that day and have a few drinks with Jia Zheng in order to relive the old days.

Although he was driven out now, at least Jia Zheng was kept. After all, since he had invited Zhang Yunyi and was taking the matter so seriously, it was impossible for him not to drink at all.

Most of the work has been done, so naturally we have to drink a little to liven up the evening.

I ate a little bit and had a couple of drinks, and felt a little tipsy.

Seeing that half an hour had passed, she couldn't help worrying that there was no one guarding outside and Jia Zheng might slip away.

So he stood up and told Jin Chuan and the others, "I'm afraid the master has something to discuss with Brother Yi. I'm going to go over there and take a look. You don't have to follow me."

Just now, Jia Zheng used this to send the servants away, and Jin Chuan and others didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

So he stayed in the house as he was told.

Mrs. Wang came to the side hall and was about to knock on the door to enter, but when she heard Jia Zheng's voice inside, she hesitated.

Zhang Yun逸 was used to being in a position of public service. He saw that Jia Zheng was somewhat complacent about having managed to stay out of trouble this time, so he couldn't help but cater to his wishes.

As the saying goes, only great heroes can be true to themselves, and only true gentlemen can be elegant.

Jia Zheng has always regarded himself as a scholar, so of course he cannot help but think of himself as a romantic.

He was toasting each other for a while, and although it didn't take long, he was already drunk and carried away, revealing his unruly nature.

He boasted to Zhang Yun逸 about his self-proclaimed romantic past and heroic deeds.

Mrs. Wang, who was outside the door, felt embarrassed and itchy when she heard this, but she was too embarrassed to knock on the door and interrupt.

Mrs. Wang outside the door was listening with great interest, but Zhang Yunyi inside the room was miserable.

Not to mention that the methods and achievements that Jia Zheng boasted about were not worth mentioning to him, but he still pretended to admire him. Just the saliva he sprayed out was enough to bother Zhang Yunyi.

However, the vivid description is quite lively and fresh, and it is quite interesting to listen to it as a short story.

There is even malicious speculation as to whether the source of these short stories came from Lady Wang or Aunt Zhao.

The only pity was that he had never met Aunt Zhao, and could only get a slight impression of her from her beautiful figure.

After all, he was young and full of vigor, and he couldn't sit still after thinking about it.

She couldn't help but think about the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law that Qin Keqing mentioned the day before. She wondered how preparations were going in Tianxiang Tower at this moment.

Jia Zheng was already drunk, and his words were not as vivid as before, so he raised his cup and asked, "Uncle, why did you call Yun Yi here this time?"

After chatting with Jia Zheng for a long time, he still hadn't talked about serious matters. Zhang Yunyi had already wanted to leave, so naturally he didn't want to chat with him any longer.
