In the Duke Jia's mansion, Mrs. Jia is the one who calls the shots now.

Although the prince who followed the founding emperor of Li Tang to conquer the world died of illness, his reputation as one of the two princes made outsiders dare not underestimate him.

Because of this, the Jia family is also the first among the nobles in the capital.

It's like the flowers are covered with brocade and the fire is cooking oil.

But no one saw that the talents of the Jia family were withering and there was no chance of success.

In particular, the two legitimate sons of the Jia family who inherited the title had no ambition to make progress and stayed in the Duke's mansion to enjoy their wealth.

After all, he is the heir of such a large Jia family.

Only Jia Zheng served as a leisurely sixth-grade official in the Ministry of Industry.

I don’t know if future generations would act like this and the knowledgeable Jia Guo Guild would be angry.

"Old lady, do you know that Beijing is very lively recently."

In the Jia Mansion, there is a luxurious interior hall.

A group of beautiful girls with different temperaments, all of them elegant and delicate, gathered around Mrs. Jia, laughing and playing.

The Jia Baoyu cat, who was estimated to be fifteen years old, was coquettishly in Mrs. Jia's arms.

These words made Jia Baoyu interested.

The person who said this was a heroic girl.

Her surname is Shi, and she is also the legitimate daughter of a marquis.

It's just that the history of this family has been unfavorable in recent years, and the family has been in a lot of shortfalls, which is not as luxurious as the Jia family.

"The military commander of the five cities was replaced by another commander, but he followed the example of King Lanling and covered his face with a ghost mask."

King Lanling?

The girls present are all knowledgeable people.

Naturally, he knew a general who was famous for his good looks and could go into battle to kill the enemy.

"Ghost face?"

The person who said this was Lin Daiyu, whose face was delicate and pale, and made people feel pity just by looking at her.

Now that she is still young, she looks like a pretty, sickly little loli.

Seeing everyone's interest, Shi Xiangyun excitedly talked about what Lin Chen had done.

Especially when he mentioned that the other party was killing people in the refugee camp outside the city, many girls turned pale in fright.

"You girl, why are your daughters talking about this?"

Mrs. Jia couldn't help laughing and scolding, a little bit between Shi Xiangyun's eyebrows.

At this moment, Shi Xiangyun stuck out his tongue and talked about Lin Chen's raid on the grain dealer.

Interspersed with Lin Chen's confrontation with Gao Qiu and He Shen in the street, the girls present had a strange look in their eyes.

If this Dutong is as good-looking as King Lanling, then he is really a strange person.

Seeing her sisters, they were all attracted to Lao Shizi Dutong.

This made Jia Baoyu feel a little unhappy.

In the inner house of the Jia family, he, who was born with a jade in his mouth, is the one who is admired by the stars.

Jia Baoyu, who was disgusted, muttered: "I only imitate the appearance of King Lanling, but he is just a rough and fighting man. Such men are like muddy mud."

Hearing these words, everyone present had different expressions.

You must know that this Jia Guogong also achieved meritorious service by fighting on the battlefield.

If we follow Jia Baoyu's words, isn't Jia Guogong also a person like dirt?

Because of Jia Baoyu's words, the atmosphere in the inner hall suddenly became slightly cold.

"You bastard! What are you talking nonsense about?"

Jia Zheng happened to come in to greet Jia's mother. Hearing Jia Baoyu's words, he jumped in anger.

To be honest, this is slandering our ancestors!

Immediately, he picked up the cane and was about to hit Jia Baoyu's butt.

But when Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang stopped him, Jia Zheng could only give up angrily, and finally gave Jia Baoyu a vicious look before leaving angrily.

At this time, the smile on Jia Mu's face was a little ugly.

When Mrs. Wang saw this, she was shocked and quickly spoke to calm the atmosphere: "Baoyu means that he must step out of the cabinet and become a prime minister in the future, and not be an ordinary man who fights."

As soon as these words came out, Jia Mu's expression relaxed a little.

But Jia Baoyu was quite dissatisfied with her mother's words and muttered: "What's so good about being an official? They are just thieves of the country and cowards!"

"Baoyu!" Mrs. Wang scolded when she heard this.

If Jia Zheng heard this, he would probably be beaten again.

Didn’t this country’s thieves even scold me?

Seeing her mother angry, Jia Baoyu shut up and looked pitifully at Sister Lin for comfort.

But Lin Daiyu avoided looking at Jia Baoyu.

broken.

Jia Baoyu was shocked.

I forgot that Lin Daiyu’s father, Lin Ruhai, was also what he called a national thief.

Involuntarily, Jia Baoyu pulled off the jade pendant from his neck and threw it to the ground.

This time.

The inner hall was in chaos again, Jia Mu quickly asked her servants to look for jade on the ground.

But he didn't expect that at this moment, Wang Xifeng hurried into the inner hall and was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.

Wang Xifeng noticed that everyone was surrounding Jia Baoyu and guessed what happened.

If it were normal, she would be indispensable to lighten the atmosphere and clear the air.

But at this time, Wang Xifeng didn't have such thoughts and came directly to Jia Mu to say hello.

Jia Mu was also a shrewd person and immediately asked Wang Xifeng what was going on.

"Old lady, several of our shops in the capital have been raided by the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division."

As soon as these words came out, the inner hall suddenly became quiet.

No.

Earlier they were still chatting about the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division.

"How is this going?!"

When Jia Mu heard this, she immediately understood that this matter was not simple.

Although the Jia family has a great cause.

But for a shop located in the capital, the land alone is worth a lot of money.

More importantly, was it His Majesty the Emperor's order to raid the shop?

After all, Jia Mu had followed Jia Guogong to the market, so she immediately asked Jia Zheng to come over and ask what happened.

Jia Zheng, who was drinking and reciting poems with his literati hangers-on, was called to Jia's mother in confusion.

When he mentioned that his shop was sealed, Jia Zheng was also shocked.

"It's a disaster!"

All of a sudden, no one cared about Jia Baoyu's previous throwing of jade.

Jia Mu quickly called her trusted servants and went outside to inquire.

Soon, the servant came back with news.

"His Majesty was furious when he learned about the price of grain in the capital. The military commanders of the five cities wrote bluntly, saying that most of it was the work of nobles."

When Wang Xifeng heard that she could not help but feel weak, her pretty face was full of panic.

This thing of hoarding food during disaster years and selling it at a high price has been true throughout the ages.

Wang Xifeng relied on the Jia family's influence and made many Jia family shops switch to buying grain. She has made a lot of money recently.

No idea, it turned out to be a disaster in the blink of an eye!

Lin Chen naturally didn't know that his words had made everyone in the Jia family panic.

He was in the court hall, looking at many ministers angrily.

Most of the people here are self-proclaimed Qingliu people.

If Lin Chen's criticism were to be carried out, their reputation would be ruined.

"Your Majesty, these remarks are purely false accusations!"

When one person stood up to defend himself, he pointed the finger at Lin Chen.

"This Lin Chenjia still wears a ghost mask when he goes to court, which shows his contempt for the court!"

Good guy.

Lin Chen couldn't help but was speechless, and he was wearing a big hat when he opened his mouth.

Lin Chen naturally wanted to refute and said immediately;

"I have an ugly face. I am afraid that I will scare you all by taking off my mask. If there is someone out there..."

Didn't go on.

The implication is that this is for the sake of you old men.
