The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 667 Chapter Name

Not to mention how Jiao Shun "returned the old liquid" at home, but said that Jia Lian returned to Rongguo Mansion in a panic, and was about to break in with his head depressed. Didn't come back with you?"

Jia Lian stopped abruptly, his complexion changed again and again.

Yeah, why did I forget about this? !

Wasn't the biggest purpose of rushing to Jiao's house in a hurry to prevent that woman Hongxing from going out? !
He felt extremely remorseful, and had the urge to turn around and go back to Jiao's house.

But the most important thing right now is to inform the family of Lin Ruhai's matter as soon as possible - Youdao is repeatedly caught in a dilemma, and the first and last problems have not been dealt with before, if he can't try to turn things around this time, the entire Rongguo Mansion may collapse Lose!
Besides, I have already gone to Jiao's house, the woman should have heard the news...

Ok……

Maybe, probably, she will be scruples if she doesn't keep it all together, so she should restrain herself?

Jia Lian was originally trying to persuade himself, but he really didn't have confidence in his deterrent power, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the green clouds were covering him.

Just as he was about to turn around involuntarily, and when he remounted his horse and rushed to Jiao's house, he suddenly heard someone cheering from inside the door: "Second Master, you are back, hurry up, the master and wife are waiting in Rongxi Hall!"

Jia Lian: "..."

Go go go go~
If that woman really has a heart, she will have tomorrow without today. Instead of worrying about guarding against thieves for a thousand days, it is better...

Jia Lian originally wanted to grit his teeth and be ruthless, but when he thought that even if Wang Xifeng had cheated, he seemed to have nothing to do with her because of Jia Amnesty's deadly handle, and suddenly became angry again.

Goddamn bitch!
In the end, he stomped his feet heavily, and took advantage of the situation to transfer the object of venting to Jiao Shun - if that Diao Nu really dares to ride on the master, let's see how the second master will deal with him!
Then Jia Lian strode into Rongguo Mansion.

Speechless all the way.

When we arrived at Rongxi Hall, Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang were occupying one side, and Tanchun was still present, but the figure of the eunuch delivering the letter was missing.

Seeing him enter the door, he looked at the guest seat. Jia Zheng explained: "Your third sister said that it is not appropriate to wait too long, so I wrote a letter to the family and asked the little eunuch to take him back to the palace to return to his command."

After a pause, he hurriedly asked again: "What did Jiao Changqing say?"

"This……"

Jia Lian looked at Tanchun who was on the side again.

Before Jia Zheng could speak, Mrs. Wang said first: "The third girl is the smartest, and she was the one who saw this matter, so there is no need to avoid her."

In normal times, Jia Lian would probably have gone down the donkey after hearing Mrs. Wang say that, but this time he was still hesitant to speak, and after a long while he laughed and said, "Auntie, let the third sister avoid this matter for a while. .”

Mrs. Wang couldn't help frowning when she heard this, and subconsciously looked at Tanchun.

Although Tanchun was extremely curious about what Jiao Shun saw, seeing this situation, he had no choice but to take the initiative to resign and leave Rongxi Hall.

"All right."

After she left, Mrs. Wang urged with some displeasure: "The third girl has already gone out, so just tell me what you want."

Only then did Jia Lian explain Jiao Shun's analysis, and then said with trepidation: "That's all for the sake of it, if the imperial court really wants to recover the stolen money left by Uncle Lin, then we, we..."

"There is such a thing?!"

Jia Zheng was sitting upright at first, but after listening to it, he became limp.

On the other side, Mrs. Wang jumped up at the table, gnashing her teeth and said: "No wonder Lin Ruhai told you repeatedly not to make it public, and even Miss Lin didn't tell, so the money came from a wrong way!"

After a pause, he couldn't help but said: "I said that girl's fate is hard, but you don't believe it, but now it's fine..."

"What's the use of saying this now?!"

Jia Zheng regained his strength a little at this moment, and slapped the armrest and shouted, but his legs were as soft as noodles, but he couldn't stand up when he slapped the chair.

Of course, this didn't stop him from being full of blame: "At the beginning, it wasn't all of you who insisted on comparing, insisting on comparing! It's not enough to throw all your family money into it, and in the end you can only use that sum of money! At that time I disagree a hundred times, but..."

"I don't like to hear what the master said."

Mrs. Wang sneered condescendingly: "When I asked someone to draw the blueprint, it seems that the old man made the board himself, right? Besides, if you and the old lady didn't approve the money, who would dare to spend it at will?"

"you you……"

It's not once or twice that Jia Zheng blamed himself at home, but it's the first time he's been slapped in the face like this in a year or two.

When he was angry, he thought to himself that it's no wonder Jia Lian thought of divorcing his wife. Once this royal daughter turns her face and throws a tantrum, she won't show any mercy to her husband!
Seeing the confrontation between the two, Jia Lian hurriedly persuaded him: "Don't argue with uncle and aunt, let's think about how to cover this matter!"

In a word, there was no movement in two clicks.

After a while, Mrs. Wang was about to grit her teeth and said: "Since there is no proof of death, how can the court believe that he left silver and it was used by our family?"

"Women's view!"

Jia Zheng snorted, and said with a dark face: "If you want people to know, you have to do nothing, not to mention how dare you conclude that there is no evidence for what happened back then?"

Speaking of this, he looked at Jia Lian and said, "Which of the people who went to Yangzhou with you at the beginning knew the truth? Are they all reliable?"

"This……"

The cold sweat on Jia Lian's forehead suddenly broke out again. Believe it or not, let me tell you first, after Jia Zheng's reminder, he found out that if the case is really investigated, he seems to be the number one suspect!

Looking at his appearance, Jia Zheng knew that he was not fully sure, so he sighed again, waved his hand and said: "We will discuss this matter later, I have thought about it, if I want to escape this catastrophe, I must rely on Only the empress can do it."

Even Mrs. Wang did not object to this.

If the Rongguo Mansion's greatest support is undoubtedly the Xiande Concubine in the palace.

"but……"

Jia Zheng frowned again and said, "Ma'am, I'm afraid you don't know what happened when the Grand View Garden was built. If you thought that Miss Lin went to Jiao's house, the mansion would be able to sit back and relax, but I'm afraid you will miss the important event!"

Jia Lian wiped off his cold sweat, and hurriedly suggested: "Then let's deliver the news to the palace as soon as possible!"

"Those eunuchs may not be trustworthy."

Jia Zheng shook his head slightly, and immediately ordered: "Well, you can go to Jiao's house again tomorrow morning, and ask Jiao Changqing to try to inform the empress when she enters the palace."

"This……"

Jia Lian's complexion suddenly fell again, and he took the initiative to hand over the blame, and asked Jiao Shun again, how could he pursue the shameless deeds of the adulterer and prostitute? !

Unwillingly, he stammered: "If there is a way, family ugliness should not be publicized..."

"I don't care about that much anymore!"

Jia Zheng raised his hand and said decisively: "After all, he came out of our house—besides, didn't your aunt always want to marry the third girl and give him a part-time job? She can't be considered an outsider!"

Jia Lian opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment.

…………

Near midnight.

The reply letter that had been carefully reviewed was finally sent to the Yuyun Garden of Jingren Palace.

Jia Yuanchun, who was tossing and turning and having difficulty falling asleep, heard the news, and didn't care to put on his clothes, just put on a light gauze casually and got up. After reading the letter in a hurry, he immediately let out a sigh of relief.

Jia Yuanchun was also keenly aware of the impeachment of Jiangsu and Zhejiang officials and merchants forming a party for personal gain and wantonly selling private salt, and the Lin family was likely to be involved.

After much deliberation, she finally couldn't resist writing a letter to her family, because she was afraid of being seen as inappropriate, so she only asked about Lin Daiyu's recent situation, and added a few words in a cryptic manner.

What was most worrying at the time was that no one in the family could understand her hints. Now that Lin Daiyu had been a guest at Jiao's house a month ago, she couldn't help secretly rejoicing that this would save the family trouble.

but……

Does the Lin family property still belong to the cousin?

Could it have been left at the old lady's place?

Do you want to send another letter to the family, implying that they will cut off with the Lin family as soon as possible?

She hesitated to find out the Four Treasures of the Study, and was waiting to be greeted by Baoqin and Momo. Baoqin, who had just been transferred back from Xinzheku a month ago, couldn't help persuading: "My lady, the matter of Wang Taiwei has already been exposed. Besides, with our current situation, it is really better to have one thing more than one thing less."

Outsiders don't know what to do, they all think that Jia Yuanchun's ability to be a government counselor must be extremely honorable, but Baoqin doesn't know that although his mother is by the emperor's side every day, she is more like a business official than anything The favored concubine.

When Baoqin mistakenly thought that she was worrying about her uncle's affairs, Jia Yuanchun couldn't help but secretly smiled wryly, even she never expected that the case of Wang Ziteng would be implicated in Rongguo Mansion from such an angle.

However, although Baoqin misunderstood, his concerns were not false.

I frequently contacted my family at this time, and it was easy to be used as a reason for criticism by interested people.

Go go go go~
The left and right are just guesses, and it may not necessarily implicate Uncle Lin. Now that the cousin of the Lin family is no longer in Rongguo Mansion, I don't need to be too anxious.

Thinking of this, she put the pen, ink, paper and inkstone back together, got up and walked back to the bed.

Seeing this, Baoqin was secretly relieved, and hurried forward to help her take off her embroidered shoes, took advantage of the opportunity to hide the slender jade legs of bully Saixue under the quilt, and said smoothly: "By the way, Ma'am, I just heard that Concubine Wu Guifei seems to be with you. Concubine Rong had a falling out, I heard that everyone started scolding on the spot."

"Is there such a thing?"

Jia Yuanchun frowned, thinking that Concubine Rong had been trying her best to please Concubine Wu, why did she suddenly fall out?

"Do you know why?"

"How does this servant know that there is everything that is said outside, but it doesn't sound real to me."

Jia Yuanchun was silent for a while, then finally shook his head and said, "Don't worry about her, it's too late for us to clean up the snow, so don't make any more trouble."

Baoqin felt a little regretful after hearing that, after all, Concubine Rong had made many troubles for this side back then, but now she had a rare opportunity, but she couldn't follow her into the situation, which was inevitably disappointing.

…………

The next day.

It was just before dawn, and Erye Lian, who tossed and turned all night and had trouble falling asleep, came outside Jiao's house again with two dark circles under his eyes.

Seeing the still closed door, Jia Lian couldn't even muster the courage to go up and call for the door.

What did that dog and man do last night? !

Thinking of this question, he became angry, but today he came to beg for help, so he couldn't just call the door, right?
How come it's such a coincidence? !
If it was normal, would I still need to hesitate?rushed in early...

Jia Lian was clenching his fists in his heart, and suddenly he heard a creak, and the corner door in front of him slowly opened a gap.

The second master Lian, who was gnashing his teeth, subconsciously changed into a flattering smile, but saw a servant of Jiao's mansion coming out with a broom in his arms, and was about to bend down to clean it, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Jia Lian, and said with a smile, "Second Lian Grandpa, are you here to pick up Second Mistress?"

It was only then that Jia Lian realized that she had overreacted and showed flattery to a lowly slave, so she hurriedly restrained herself and asked with a straight face, "Where is Second Mistress now?"

"This... just look over there!"

The man raised his broom and pointed diagonally to the opposite side: "Second Mistress stayed with us until midnight last night, and because she thought we didn't have a serious guest house, she went to Xue's house overnight."

Jia Lian was overjoyed when he heard the words, but felt that his bones were lighter.

Since Wang Xifeng didn't spend the night at Jiao's house yesterday, does that mean her hair hasn't been stained green yet?

Immediately, he was refreshed, with the wind under his feet, and he walked in and said: "Go, inform your master, and tell him that I have something urgent to find him!"

Knowing that the two families are very close, the servant didn't care about his outrageous behavior, so he threw down his broom and ran to report.

At this time, Jiao Shun was having dinner with Shi Xiangyun, and when he heard that Jia Lian had come to him again, before he had time to say anything, Shi Xiangyun frowned and said, "Why is Lian's second brother here again? Is the matter of the Wang family really so urgent?"

As he spoke, he looked at Jiao Shun worriedly.

"It's hard to say."

Jiao Shun reached out and pinched her face lightly, saying: "But you just put your heart in your stomach, no matter what happens to this matter, it won't involve us."

Shi Xiangyun sighed: "I'm not worried about this, but..."

At this moment, Qingwen came in from the outside to report: "Madam, Miss Lin has someone spread the word that she will come to discuss matters with you after the master goes to the yamen."

Since he said to give Lin Daiyu time to think about it, Shi Xiangyun naturally did not go to the Guest House last night.

Now that she heard that Lin Daiyu was going to take the initiative to come to the door, she guessed that sister Lin probably wanted to return the chicken blood stone, and she couldn't help but sighed slightly.

Right now, this matter has fallen into an endless loop. On the one hand, Shi Xiangyun is worried that Lin Daiyu will not be able to accept what happened to her father and will eventually collapse completely, so he hopes to find a new pillar for her to rely on first.

But right now, it seems that to persuade her to compromise, she must first break the shell of pride on her body.

So the order of these two things became very contradictory.

Shi Xiangyun was feeling annoyed, when the back of his hand suddenly felt hot, but Jiao Shun stretched out his hand to hold it, and comforted him softly: "Everyone has his own destiny, so there is no need to force anything."

Although he knew that her husband's words may not be completely sincere, Shi Xiangyun still felt a little hot in his heart, and said softly: "Then you must do your best, so that you can obey the destiny."

The two looked at each other for a while, then got up and went their separate ways.

Jiao Shun went to the front hall to meet the sufferer, while Shi Xiangyun, after pulling himself together, sent Qingwen to the guest house to invite Daiyu.
