Jia Zhen, Uncle of the Red House

　　The old lady walked up to Baoyu tremblingly and saw blood oozing out of his back, she cried out in grief, "Baoyu!" Her heart was almost broken.In the blink of an eye, she saw Jia Zheng who was beating people, and pointed at his nose and scolded: "You have also been an official all your life, and even the emperor needs a solid evidence to deal with people! Do you believe that Baoyu would do such a thing? I Look at you, the more you live, the more you go back."

　　Jia Zheng beat his chest and paused: "Mother, this matter is different from the past. According to Zhang Sizheng, if the real culprit cannot be found, Baoyu is the biggest suspect! My son is so anxious and helpless!"

　　The old lady said angrily: "On weekdays, everyone is more than capable, promoting others to rank and nobility, but now that I have something to do, I have become dumb and stupid? Bah, I think you have read dead books, what is the use of you? Go! Look for it! Dali Temple Minister, look for the Minister of Punishment! The big deal is to look for King Beijing, otherwise I will go to the palace to find the empress, and there will always be a place for reason. I only know how to beat my Baoyu at home! Very capable!"

　　Jia Zheng said anxiously: "Mother, my son is angry and Baoyu is not good enough..."

　　The old lady scolded: "Bah, I think you're not up to your expectations! You have to teach your son a lesson, and I won't stop you. If you beat him, beat him, and I will hang him with a single ribbon. It's not in your eyes!"

　　Jia Zheng panicked and knelt down and said, "Mother, how dare my son, how dare my son! I will never fight again!"

　　The old lady was both saddened by Baoyu's serious injury, and annoyed by her son's incompetence, she scolded: "What are you doing here? Go and find out, and see who framed my Baoyu!"

　　Jia Zheng nodded hurriedly, he wiped away his tears, and asked Baoyu heartily: "Today, tell the truth to your father, have you hurt anyone's life? It will give you back your life! You tell the truth!"

　　Baoyu wept weakly, "Master, I really don't have one!"

　　"Hey!" Jia Zheng sighed and hurried out.

　　Madam Wang was already sobbing, "Baoyu, how are you?"

　　There were tears on Baoyu's face, struggling to smile: "Madam, don't worry, they didn't weigh too much, they were just pretending to show the master."

　　Madam Wang stretched out her hand to uncover the front of Baoyu's back. The blood had already clumped together. With a little movement, Baoyu was sweating like rain. "My son!" Madam Wang could only cry bitterly.

　　The old lady stood beside her, wiping her tears, "Baoyu, don't worry, as long as you didn't do it, no one can do anything to you! That temple is going to dare to come again next time, and I'll slap him in the face! Baoyu! "Sadly hugged Baoyu's head and cried.Yuanyang hurriedly supported the old lady.

　　Soon, Sister Feng, Li Wan and the other sisters came to hear the news.

　　Sister Feng stepped forward and persuaded Madam Wang, "Madam, since the master has already gone out to investigate, I believe that there will be some unearthed information soon. Why don't you take Baoyu in and take good care of it?"

　　Madam Wang hurriedly said: "Yes, you guys quickly carry it in!"

　　Sister Feng beckoned to have Baoyu carried away.

　　The eyes of the sisters were also red, and they felt uncomfortable watching Baoyu being beaten.

　　When they arrived in the room, Caixia and Caiyun hurriedly served Baoyu to lie on her stomach, drank water, carefully removed her clothes, washed the blood stains, and then put on the medicine and covered it with a mattress.

　　Only then did the sisters come in to visit.

　　They sat down in the front hall and asked Baoyu through the curtain, "Is it better?" "It doesn't hurt, right?"

　　Baoyu snorted twice and answered with a smile.

　　Tan Chun couldn't help but persuade: "Second brother, I can't blame the master for beating you, but if you pay more attention, where will there be today's disaster? Now that you are beaten like this, we feel uncomfortable."

　　Baoyu was a little unhappy, but still smiled: "If you come and see, I won't be in pain. So it looks great, but it will be fine after two days."

　　Baochai persuaded: "Baoyu, you should also think about it. Who did you meet on the road, did you see anything? This is a matter of life and death! It must not be taken lightly." Brother Xue Pan also killed people, so he thought more than others.

　　Baoyu frowned, two days have passed, what else can I think of?He simply gave up and said with a smile, "I haven't done anything wrong, I'll figure it out. Besides, the master has already gone to Dali Temple, so I don't want me to do anything more." This matter was taken very seriously, and I insisted that I was innocent, and no one else could do anything to him.

　　So he still talks and laughs, chatting and laughing with his sisters.

　　Remember the last time you were laughing with your sisters?Only when I was beaten did they have to look at me and moisten my already dry heart with tears. Even if my body hurts ten times, a hundred times, or ten thousand times, I am happy!

　　If you think about it, what is the injury on your body?I wish I could be beaten every day!

　　Several sisters comforted and persuaded others.Daiyu turned her head and sighed in a low voice, "I just hope that after this experience, he can come to his senses and let his aunt and uncle worry less."

　　Baochai shook his head gently, "I'm afraid it will be difficult." After sitting for a while, they all left.

　　Until afternoon, Jia Zheng came back with a look of depression.Madam Wang immediately asked, "Can you get the letter?"

　　Jia Zheng sat on the couch and said nothing.

　　Madam Wang said anxiously, "Master, you should speak quickly!" She grabbed Jia Zheng's sleeve with both hands.

　　Jia Zheng's face was ashen, and it took a long time to say: "I went to Dali Temple first, I only saw the temple chief, only said that it was still under investigation, and it was inconvenient to disclose, and then I went to the Ministry of Punishment, and Mr. Li, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, said it was unclear. So , I had to hurriedly go to see Prince Beijing, it just so happened that the prince entered the palace to face the Holy Spirit, but he wasn't there."

　　Angrily, he turned around and found nothing.What made him even more disheartened was that he thought that he could speak because he was the father of Concubine Yuan and the heir of Duke Rong, but neither Dali Temple nor the Ministry of Punishment had seen the person in charge, so he just casually called him. It was over, but I couldn't even say a word.In the past, Jia Zheng was pedantic and low-ranking, and could only inquire about information without much help, but he knew nothing about the investigation and trial.

　　"Then what should I do?" Madam Wang was helpless. "Would you like to send a letter to my brother and beg him? Pan'er's affairs are his greetings? Besides, Baoyu is different from Pan'er. He was wronged."

　　Jia Zheng is extremely reluctant, this eldest brother-in-law has not been as enthusiastic as he used to be recently, maybe it is because of Brother Zhen?

　　Yes, why don't you ask Brother Zhen to do it?My own sons and nephews are far more reliable than outsiders.

　　He was very annoyed: "I think we also forgot, Brother Zhen has a high position right now, how can he be far away from the near?" After that, he immediately went to find him.

　　But Mrs. Wang stopped Jia Zheng and persuaded: "Master, you are an elder, how can you go to the door to beg him in person? It's better to send someone to call him here!"

　　Jia Zheng thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, no."

　　Madam Wang then suggested: "I'd better go there. If he doesn't want to, it won't be too late for you to come forward!"

　　Jia Zheng listened and smiled and said, "Madam don't need to worry too much, Brother Zhen will definitely do his best. There is a saying that it is better to ask for yourself, so I don't bother my eldest brother-in-law to ask for entrustment, and there is no need to see other people."

　　Madam Wang changed her clothes and drove to Ningguo Mansion in a car.

Chapter one hundred and seventieth

　　Madam Wang was worried, and every time she remembered the last conversation, Brother Zhen's indifferent eyes always made her heart palpitate.Moreover, Brother Zhen and Baoyu had a grudge for a long time, and now that Baoyu is in trouble, there is no guarantee that he will not sit back and ignore it, or even fall into the trap.Therefore, she stopped Jia Zheng, for fear that he would be deceived by Jia Zhen, and since she had torn her face before, she might as well talk about the conditions openly and honestly, which is more reliable than empty talk.She pondered over and over on the way, she was over the age and only Baoyu was under her knees. If there was an emergency, she would not be able to survive.

　　It's not that she didn't want to beg her brother in the past, but she knew very well that her brother was useless, and she begged him for this matter today, so what will she use to compensate him in the future?In particular, she learned from the empress that he actually encouraged the empress to support the prince. If Brother Zhen hadn't persuaded him in time, he would have lost the emperor's favor.Thinking about it this way, his vision is not as good as Brother Zhen.Therefore, she is unwilling to look for it unless she has to.

　　Compared to the elder brother, Brother Zhen?Since the master trusts him so much, I just hope that he can really help Baoyu sincerely, right?

　　She didn't even believe it herself.

　　When she saw the carriage driving into Ningguo Mansion through the curtain of the car, she was suddenly flustered.She stroked her chest, straightened her temples and hair, and warned herself not to panic a little and let him look down on him.

　　The carriage came in through the corner door, then changed to a sedan, and carried it straight into the ceremonial door, and got off the sedan in front of the hall.

　　She also often comes to Ning Guofu, and she comes back today, but there is a faint difference, and she can't tell the truth.In the hall, the color screen and the phoenix followed.Madam Wang asked, "Where is Brother Zhen? Take me to find him!"

　　Cai Ping said with a smile: "If you go back to Auntie, our master has something to do and hasn't come home yet. Why don't you ask Auntie to go to the main room to rest for a while?"

　　Madam Wang frowned, "When will Brother Zhen come back?"

　　Cai Ping said: "I can't count. It was only at this time in the past that I should have come back. Auntie finally came here once, and she must rest here. I ordered them to urge the master to come back!" "It's unfortunate that Auntie came. Today our wife's old lady was released, and most of the family went to take her back to her hometown. I was the only one left to look after the family. Auntie, don't think that you are being neglected, or the old man and wife will know, You can't hit me."

　　Madam Wang half pushed and walked with Cai Ping to the east main room of Ning An Hall.There are also kang tables and sitting chairs along the window kang, which are paved with a single color of delicate silk, two golden silk nanmu wood seats, and the cushions are all embroidered.

　　The color screen lets you sit on the kang and serve you tea attentively.

　　Mrs. Wang asked, "I heard that Brother Zhen had committed a crime before, and then I heard that it was all right. There was a lot of discussion. What happened?"

　　Cai Ping said with a smile: "Actually, it didn't matter much, it's just a false alarm for everyone." I skipped a few simple sentences.

　　But Mrs. Wang heard it, Brother Zhen solved the trouble neatly, and even the emperor trusted him very much.Madam Wang thought to herself, if Brother Zhen really helped Baoyu, then even if Baoyu did kill someone, maybe she could ask for the next decree of pardon!

　　She was thinking about her thoughts, but didn't listen to what the color screen said.

　　After a long while, the tea in the cup was exhausted, and Mrs. Wang asked again, "Is Brother Zhen still back?"

　　I saw Jia Zhen open the curtain and walk in from the outside.

　　He cupped his hands from a distance and smiled, "I didn't know my aunt was coming, and it was Jia Zhen's fault that she kept her waiting for a long time. Jia Zhen apologized to my aunt."

　　Madam Wang supported her, "Forget it, my family, why are you being so polite?"

　　Jia Zhenben was also pretentious. Hearing the words, he sat opposite her. "It's really rare for Auntie to come to me today! Since we had some disputes that day, I thought Auntie would never come to my side in the future!"

　　Mrs. Wang forced a smile and said, "What's the matter, we are close relatives, and some disputes are also due to misunderstandings. If I do something wrong, Brother Zhen doesn't have to take it to heart."

　　Jia Zhen glanced at Madam Wang in surprise, this was not like her usual style! "What my aunt said was a misunderstanding!"

　　Mrs. Wang said a few more words to Jia Zhen, her eyes were erratic, she seemed to have something to say?

　　Jia Zhen became more and more curious, but Mrs. Wang himself was happy to pretend to be deaf.

　　Mrs. Wang hesitated for a while, but finally turned to the topic and sighed, "I came to see Brother Zhen today, but I have a troublesome matter that only Brother Zhen can handle."

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "Auntie, please tell me!" She poured tea for Mrs. Wang herself.

　　Mrs. Wang recounted what happened in the Rongguo Mansion before.

　　When Jia Zhen heard it, her first thought was to frame the blame, just like they blamed Jia Zhen, the purpose was to bring down the Jia family.Otherwise, he wouldn't believe that Jia Baoyu would kill people anyway, and even kill women?No kidding!

　　He pondered: "This matter is a little tricky." The tricky thing is not how to save Jia Baoyu, his problem is only a small matter, the tricky one is the person behind the plot.Originally, he thought it was just to deal with him Jia Zhen, but now it seems that someone wants to cook the Jia family.Especially when the concubine Yuan had just saved her relatives and the Jia family was the most powerful?Jia Zhen is blocking the way of many people, but Rongguo Mansion does not have one. In this world, both hate Jia Zhen and want to count on Rongguo Mansion.

　　Jia Zhen sneered, who else could it be except King Zhongshun?

　　Mrs. Wang looked at Jia Zhen nervously. When Jia Zhen said the word trouble, her heart sank, and then Jia Zhen sneered again, making Mrs. Wang even more uneasy.

　　She asked in a trembling voice, "Brother Zhen, this shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

　　Jia Zhen didn't pay attention to Madam Wang's face, and fell into deep thought, "It's difficult! It's difficult!" The difficulty is that he is a prince. To get revenge, the only way is to pull him off the horse. This is the first difficulty. , no one can control, this is the second difficulty.If the prince ascends the throne in the future, then there will be no then, the Jia family is gone anyway.This is the third difficulty.

　　Madam Wang stirred the veil with both hands, worrying to the extreme.She stood up with a worried look on her face.

　　"Cai Ping, you go out first, I have something important to discuss with Brother Zhen! You are not allowed to come in!"

　　Cai Ping also heard that it was for Baoyu, so he hurriedly went out with the other girls and closed the door.

　　So Mrs. Wang suppressed her panic and said to Jia Zhen, "Brother Zhen, there are only me and you here. You can tell me directly, if you want to save Baoyu, what conditions do you have?"

　　Jia Zhen looked up and saw Madam Wang staring at him, which made him a little uncomfortable. "Auntie, what are you talking about? I said just now that it was a misunderstanding and didn't care about it. Why do you think about me like that now?"

　　Mrs. Wang took a long breath and sat on the chair next to Jia Zhen, "No misunderstanding. I know you won't save Baoyu for no reason. But your uncle thought you were reliable, so he stopped doing what he thought, just blindly. Only rely on you."

　　Jia Zhen was surprised.

　　Mrs. Wang straightened her chest and said, "You might as well open the skylight and say something bright, if you have the conditions, just say it. If it can be done, I will answer it face to face. If it can't be done, I will have to go to my elder brother, and to Prince Beijing. Presumably they won't embarrass the Rongguo government."

　　Jia Zhen glanced at her and said with a smile, "Auntie, since you said that, why don't you go to Wang Ziteng or Prince Beijing?" He picked up the tea and took a sip.

　　Madam Wang was furious, stood up and snorted: "I knew you wouldn't save Baoyu. Don't think that without you, you can't think about it! Stop dreaming!"

　　Jia Zhen sneered: "Auntie, please do it yourself!"

　　Mrs. Wang's chest rose and her brows stood on end. Thinking that Baoyu might be imprisoned, she suppressed her anger and had to smile slowly: "Brother Zhen, aunt was joking just now! Second Lord, since I have asked you, you can give an idea."

　　Jia Zhen watched Madam Wang bow her head and admit defeat. She sneered before putting down the tea and explained, "Auntie, it's hard to say, easy to say."

　　Madam Wang said anxiously, "Then you can say it easily."

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said, "It's easy to get Baoyu out of trouble, but it's hard to get Rong Fu out of danger."

　　Madam Wang asked, "Why is this?"

　　Jia Zhen smiled and said: "This is someone trying to kill Jia's house. I didn't succeed in killing me before, but now I have found Baoyu again. If we don't interrupt the mastermind behind the scenes, even if we are lucky enough to escape this time, there will be such things in the future. ."

　　Mrs. Wang was frightened, "How is this good?" She grabbed Jia Zhen's hand nervously, worrying about it, "Brother Zhen, as long as Baoyu is safe and sound, I'll be fine."
