King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 198

"The empress's mother is the mother of the world, not only the mother of the Thirteenth Lord, but also the mother of the world!"

"Today's matter, the thirteenth master is wrong. If the old ancestor enters the palace and speaks out, the empress may not be able to uphold justice!"

Seeing Jia Baoyu talking eloquently, no one at the scene thought he was a hero, they only thought he was in a daze and talking nonsense.

"Baoyu... shut up!" Jia Zheng scolded angrily.

If the son continues to talk like this, it will not only embarrass them, but even Jia's mother will lose face.

After all, it is impossible for her to really enter the palace and sue her own son in front of the queen.

Everyone in the capital does not know that the queen dotes on Zhu Jinghong's youngest son very much, otherwise Zhu Jinghong would not have gained the "notoriety" he has today.

"Baoyu, don't say a few words, how can the queen empress make unreasonable remarks!" Jia Mu couldn't help but speak.

On the other side, Jia She and his son looked at Baoyu with cold eyes.

The turmoil half a month ago made Jia Shesheng think of expelling Jia Baoyu from the family, but only because of Jia Zheng's pleading and his mother's disapproval.

At this moment, Jia Amnesty had this idea again. In his opinion, Jia Baoyu was a disaster, and he might cause much trouble.

Jia Lian didn't want to drive Baoyu out, but just wanted to beat him up.

"Ancestor..."

Before Jia Baoyu could speak, he heard Jia's mother yelling: "Shut up, go back quickly!"

At this moment, Jia Zheng followed suit and scolded, "Baoyu, don't back down!"

Everyone's denunciation made Jia Baoyu extremely wronged, and he could only leave the room with wet eyes.

Everyone waited for a while, and after the doctor had finished treating Jia Rong, they left and went home.

Only Jia She and his son, who were in charge of this matter, still stayed in Ningguo Mansion to wait for Jia Zhen to come back. They also planned to arrange for Jia Zhen to come to the house today to withdraw from the marriage.

…………

Because of the relationship between the Jia family and the crown prince, Zhu Jingyuan has always been a thorn in the side, so he put an eyeliner in Jia's mansion.

The level of these eyeliners is not low, the worst is first-class maids, who can serve the masters of Jia's mansion up close.

The conversation between the young and old of the Jia family just now was spread by these eyeliners, and half an hour later it appeared in the ears of the steward of Prince Rui's residence.

After hearing the report, Ying Qiu couldn't help but sneer: "The Jia family really don't know what to do, and they want to sue the Thirteenth Master!"

Then he didn't dare to delay, and immediately got up and went to the inner house, and wanted to report to Zhu Jingyuan in time while Zhu Jingyuan was in the mansion.

It was noon now, Zhu Jingyuan was having dinner with the concubine, and the husband and wife were chatting about the anecdotes of each family, mainly because Chen Zhi said that Zhu Jingyuan was listening.

"Reporting to the prince, Guan Ying is here!"

With dissatisfaction on her face, Chen Zhi said, "What is he here for?"

Right now, they are having lunch, and the husband and wife are talking happily. Wouldn't this fellow come over to make trouble.

"Call him in!"

After ordering this matter, Zhu Jingyuan said: "He knows how to advance and retreat. He must have something important to come at this time!"

"Know how to advance and retreat, let him go to Jinling, what kind of job will he do?" Chen Zhi became more and more dissatisfied.

Zhu Jingyuan said coldly: "If the old thirteen hadn't disturbed the situation, this matter would have been settled, no wonder he... don't mention this matter again!"

Chen Zhi stopped talking, Ying Qiu rushed over after a few breaths, and stood outside the threshold of the dining room to pay respects.

"The slaves kowtow to the lord and concubine!"

Zhu Jingyuan took the vegetables between his hands and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Reporting to my lord, I just heard news from the Jia family about the Thirteenth Lord..."

"Oh? Let's hear it..." Zhu Jingyuan put down the bowl and chopsticks directly.

Not only was he interested, but even Chen Zhi listened intently.

Kneeling on the ground, Ying Qiu lowered his head and replied: "The people from Jia's mansion came to report just now, saying that Master Thirteen has delivered a message today, and wants to let..."

Just now Ying Qiu explained all kinds of things that happened in Jia's mansion in an orderly and clear manner, which made Zhu Jingyuan very surprised.

After Ying Qiu finished speaking, Zhu Jingyuan ordered him to reward the person who sent the message, and then let him retreat.

Ying Qiu had just left when Chen Zhi said, "You said this old thirteen...what does he... think?"

Picking up the bowls and chopsticks again, Zhu Jingyuan asked calmly, "What do you mean?"

"Isn't he close to the fourth child? A few days ago, he tried his best to protect the Jia family, why is he bothering the Jia family again today?"

"how could I know!"

Zhu Jingyuan really didn't know, even a normal person couldn't figure it out.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Jingyuan said: "Old Shisan is impulsive and reckless, he may not have thought so much!"

Chen Zhi nodded, and said, "It's really possible. His brain... is good at wielding knives and guns, but I'm afraid he really doesn't know anything about the world!"

"I see this, it can be used!"

Seeing that Chen Zhi was already well prepared, Zhu Jingyuan asked, "How to use it?"

"The Jia family bullied others and bullied Qingliu civil servants. Wouldn't it attract criticism from the officials of the Manchu Dynasty? If you find a few people to impeach, they will naturally attack them...I see how the fourth child will end up!"

Hearing Chen Zhi's words, Zhu Jingyuan frowned and said, "Two days ago, the old man said hello, asking me to devote more time to writing books, and don't keep holding on to fourth child!"

Although the conversation between the empress and the empress broke up badly, the empress' words worked, otherwise Zhu Xianming would not have given such orders.

Just as Chen Zhi was about to speak, Zhu Jingyuan said, "Also...you can't just hold on to Jia's family, you have to take care of the nobles' face, and I also need their approval!"

This is also the truth. Although the nobles have been tamed like dogs and have no right to speak except in the military, they still have to be wooed if they can be wooed.

"Then this matter..."

Zhu Jingyuan smiled and said, "We don't want to cause trouble, so we can borrow a knife to kill someone!"

Chen Zhiruo was thoughtful, and asked, "You mean...by the hands of Old Thirteen to kill someone?"

"Since the old thirteen has meddled in this nosy business, let him take care of it to the end. He hasn't been going smoothly all the time, this time it just happened to save his face!"

Hearing Zhu Jingyuan's nonsense, Chen Zhi couldn't help asking: "What are you going to do? Tell him the resentment of the Jia family, and what Jia Baoyu said?"

Glancing at Chen Zhi, Zhu Jingyuan said, "Am I that stupid? To sow discord?"

"Then what are you going to do?"

Zhu Jingyuan said with a smile: "Find some people, in the name of someone from the Jia family, go to the Qin family to intimidate them, force them to go to the old thirteen, and say that they will not divorce!"

"With the old thirteen's temper, why don't you ask for clarification? I will trouble the Jia family when the time comes, so we can just watch from the sidelines!"

There was also a smile on Chen Zhi's face, and she couldn't help saying: "This is a good way...it has nothing to do with us from the beginning to the end!"

"With the bad temper of the old thirteen, this time the Jia family will definitely be turned upside down. Then the fourth brother will lose face, and the relationship between the two of them will also become tense...Your trick is really cruel!"

Hearing his wife's praise, the sixth child felt completely at peace.

At this moment, he is thinking about how to maximize his benefits, and it is best to draw Zhu Jinghong to his side.

Although I have a simple idea, I have to make adjustments according to the actual situation, so it is useless to think too much.

"Send Sun He over here!" Zhu Jingyuan shouted to the outside.

Sun He, who was called by him, was also one of the stewards of Prince Rui's residence, who only did shady things for Zhu Jingyuan, so he could be regarded as his confidant.
