Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 727 Thunderbolt
Lin Ruhai was a little confused!

He just got off the official boat, and immediately there were more than a dozen riders to meet him.

That menacing posture startled the officers and soldiers escorting the tax bank.

Fortunately, the cavalry stopped a hundred paces away, and the tall and muscular young man at the head dismounted from his horse and came over with big strides.

With a height of close to 1.8 meters, there was a sense of sharpness all over his body, which made Lin Ruhai know right away that he was not easy to mess with.

Of course, the other party is young and immature, and he is definitely not more than eighteen years old.

Lin Ruhai was a little dazed, he didn't know this young man who was dressed in splendid clothes and was born out of ordinary at first glance.

On the contrary, the guards and masters who came to Ningfu showed surprise, and then whispered in their ears: "My lord, it's Uncle Rong!"

Uncle Rong?Ning Fu Jia Rong?

"Jia Rong, I've met my aunt!"

At this moment, Jia Rong stopped a few feet away from Lin Ruhai, bowed her hands and smiled lightly.

"You are Brother Rong from Ning Mansion, you really surprised me!"

Lin Ruhai reacted with surprise on his face.

Originally, I thought it would be a good idea for the Yue family to send someone over to greet them, but I didn't expect to send Jia Rong here.

He and Jia Rong have been friends for a long time, and they exchanged letters a lot before.

"Haha, nothing surprising!"

Jia Rong laughed softly, pointed to the official ship Lin Ruhai was on, and said leisurely: "Ever since I heard that my aunt went to Beijing with the salt tax and tax silver, I thought of coming over to have a look, and I would like to say a few words by the way!"

At this time, the official ships carrying salt tax and tax silver came to the shore one after another, and the officers, soldiers and sailors on the ship worked hard to lift the heavy wooden boxes to the dock.

"Oh, what's the problem?"

Lin Ruhai's heart skipped a beat, he glanced back and said inexplicably: "It's just a way, and by the way, it's also a job to the imperial court!"

Gee!
Obviously, Lin Ruhai didn't realize that it was wrong to do so.

Keenly aware that there are many eyes focused on her body, Jia Rong didn't intend to be a monkey to invite people to visit, so she stretched out her hand and said with a smile: "Master, talk here!"

Lin Ruhai was full of doubts, and greeted the escort officer behind him, then slowly got into a carriage in the middle of the cavalry a hundred paces away, and then went straight to a medium-sized inn in Tongzhou City.

After resting for a while, Lin Ruhai's fatigue relieved a lot, and then he came to the inn lobby, sat opposite Jia Rong who had been waiting for a long time, and asked curiously, "Brother Rong, what's the matter?"

On the way, Jia Rong had already introduced the steward and servants who came to greet Rong Mansion.

To be honest, it is impossible to say that there is no point of disappointment in my heart.

Even if all the core members of the Rong Mansion have something to do, can they send a member of the Jia clan who is attached to the Rong Mansion to greet them?

After all, Lin Ruhai is the son-in-law of Rongfu.

At this time, Jia Rong was in front of him, and the stewards and servants from the Rong Mansion were naturally completely ignored.

They didn't dare to be arrogant, Jia Rong and a dozen sturdy riders were beside them, if they dared to be arrogant, Jia Rong would dare to teach them a lesson.

"It's nothing, I just want to ask my aunt, did you go to Beijing with the official ship carrying salt tax and tax money, did you want to ask for credit and reward?"

A soft word, like a thunderbolt, suddenly caused Lin Ruhai's face to change drastically.

How can there be a fool who can be a member of the third rank?

Lin Ruhai immediately realized that it was definitely a bad move for him to go with the official ship carrying salt tax and tax money.

Thinking of some terrible consequences, even with his concentration, he couldn't help but turn pale, and his mood instantly fell into the abyss.

At the same time, he looked at Jia Rong with more scrutiny and precautions, and said dryly and coldly, "Thank you for reminding me, Brother Rong, I don't know what purpose Brother Rong has?"

"I don't want a good partner to encounter misfortune!"

Jia Rong smiled lightly, without touching the food and wine on the table, and said with a smile: "In the past two years, the ethnology and my aunt have cooperated very happily!"

"Besides, no matter what my aunt says, she is considered the most reliable official foreign aid of the Jia family in the capital. I don't want my aunt to have an accident!"

"Aren't there still Wang Ziteng and Shi Jia Shuanghou?"

Lin Ruhai's face looked a little better, and his tone was a little relaxed.

"There are Wang family and Shi family behind them!"

Jia Rong said it very directly: "It's not like my aunt..."

You don't need a heavy hammer to beat the drum, and you don't need to say something too clearly. Everyone knows it well, and it may not be very appropriate to say it.

Lin Ruhai is silent, although his ancestral home is Suzhou, and he is also a branch of the Lin family, a wealthy local family in Suzhou, but he has long since died of old age and has no contact with each other.

Although Jia Rong's words were harsh, they were true. Lin Ruhai didn't have a huge family behind him that required his painstaking care.

On the contrary, as the Yue family, the Jia family is the only force he can rely on with confidence, it's that simple.

"Although the Ningrong Second Mansion wants to revitalize, there is not even a third-rank official in the court hall who can be trusted. How can this be done?"

Jia Rong continued: "Besides, if my aunt can continue to stand in the court, it will also be a kind of protection for Ningrong Second Mansion!"

Lin Ruhai understood it, and asked directly: "Then what do you think?"

"We must step back. The Yanzheng is in a mess. It's better not to continue participating in the cooperation, or I'm afraid something unbearable will happen!"

Jia Rong's face was calm, and she said something that would definitely make outsiders feel terrified.

Lin Ruhai raised his head suddenly, his eyes were like lightning and he said coldly: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Without waiting for Jia Rong to react, she said to herself: "If the court can't even protect the dignified third-rank officials..."

The following words were not spoken, but the meaning was self-evident.

If the court and the royal family can't even protect his life, it means that there is a big problem with the control of Jiangnan.

Once such a thing really happens, I don't know that the Jiangnan officialdom and the gentry group can really hold it.

The Daqian Dynasty was in its heyday at this time, and such a thing could not be tolerated.

"My aunt's safety should be fine!"

Jia Rong's face was calm without any disturbance, and she said leisurely: "I guess, there are still guards who are currently arranged to protect me!"

"However, what about my aunt's back house, can it be protected as well?"

"I've heard that my little cousin and my little cousin are both very young!"

Ignoring Lin Ruhai, who was terrified and even terrified, Jia Rong continued on her own: "Only a thousand days is a thief, so how can there be a thousand days to guard against a thief, my aunt said, right?"

"Don't think that the interests of the salt government are afraid to take action, the gentleman's aura of literati is a bit heavy!"

"Think about it, the annual income of several million, because of my aunt, failed to fall into the pockets of some guys, but was sent to the national treasury. I can endure it for a short time, but after a long time Woolen cloth……"
