I have a role in the heavens

Lai Da looked at the mark in front of him and couldn't deny it. His face was ashen, but he was still unwilling to give in and spoke.

"Two gentlemen, our family has worked conscientiously in the government for decades. There is no merit but hard work. You can't treat me like this. Aren't you afraid that we will go see the old lady!"

Lai Da's mother, Aunt Lai, was Jia Mu's dowry. She had served Jia Mu for decades and was very respectable in front of Jia Mu. It was precisely for this reason that Lai Da and Lai Er were able to become the stewards of Ning Rong's second mansion. As stable as a mountain, she almost emptied both houses and saved a huge family fortune. Grandma Lai's food and clothing expenses were not inferior to Jia's mother, which shows how much gold and silver she had greedy.

Jia She, Jia Zheng ransacked the house overnight, and the total amount exceeded 200,000 taels of gold and silver. Including antiques, jades, shops and manors, etc., there were more than 400,000 taels. Many of the shops and manors were the property of Rongguo Mansion. Ambassador Lai used his tricks to resell it into his own hands, which made Jia She and Jia Zheng very angry. No wonder the industry in the government has suffered losses for two years in recent years, and the income has gone from bad to worse every year.

It has to be said that the money from the house confiscation came too fast. A person will not be rich without windfall, and a horse will not be fat without night grass. The Rongguo Mansion plundered the Lai family and immediately became rich. After exchanging the money owed by the mansion, there was still a lot left over.

A group of people from Rongguo Mansion drove a carriage and moved the proceeds from the confiscation of the house back to Rongguo Mansion for storage.

Early in the morning, Grandma Lai knew that Lai Da's house had been ransacked. She was very anxious and hurriedly came to Rongguo Mansion from Lai Er's Mansion to meet Jia Mu.

Jia's mother had already received the report from Jia Zheng and the two of them. She knew what had happened and did not want to see Aunt Lai. She just asked someone to reply.

"The old lady hasn't been feeling well these days and can't see guests. Grandma should go back first!"

Aunt Lai is usually very dignified in front of Jia Mu, but compared with real money and silver, Jia Mu can still tell the difference. Why would she see Aunt Lai at this time?

Aunt Lai was rejected and felt heavy-hearted. She returned to Lai Er's house, unhappy.

Blessings never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come singly. When Jia Zhen of the Ningguo Mansion saw that the Rongguo Mansion had raided Lai Da's house and obtained hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, she not only paid off the national treasury deficit, but also had a surplus, and became rich overnight. She was also moved and directly Taking the servants, they went straight to Lai Er's house and ransacked his house. They also found more than 200,000 taels of silver. Now the Lai family was completely ruined. Aunt Lai died in fright.

Lai Da and Lai Er, as slaves in the mansion, squandered their property and were sent to Shuntian Mansion by Ning Rong's Second Mansion. They were imprisoned and it will be difficult for them to get out in this life.

Seeing that Ning Rong's second government was like this, Jia Chang used some means to find Lai Shangrong's fault and remove him from office. If the snake is not killed, there will be endless troubles. Jia Chang will not leave such troubles behind. From now on, the Lai family is completely finished, and there will never be a chance to make a comeback.

When other noble families saw Ning Rong's second house doing this, they were inspired and followed suit. For a time, the entire Shenjing City was ransacked, and countless unruly slaves were raped. The national treasury deficit was quickly filled, making Emperor Yuankang very happy. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he issued an order to let some of the palace ladies out of the palace, including Jia Yuanchun.

Emperor Yuankang even ordered his eunuch chief Dai Quan to go to Rongguo Mansion to read out the imperial edict and confer Jia Yuanchun as Princess Jingxian, which made everyone in Rongguo Mansion extremely happy.

Jia Lian came to Dai Quan's side, quietly stuffed the two thousand taels of silver notes into Dai Quan's sleeve, and said with a respectful look on his face.

"Thank you for taking the time to pay a visit to General Manager Dai. This is a token of appreciation from the mansion. Please have a cup of tea!"

Dai Quan glanced skillfully and knew what was going on. With a bright smile on his face, he said very politely.

"Second Master Lian, what are you talking about? I'm not polite anymore, I'll accept it shamelessly!"

Jia Lian respectfully sent Dai Quan out of the palace. Not to mention, Mrs. Wang was secretly angry when she saw her daughter leaving the palace. She had hoped that Jia Yuanchun would become a concubine in the palace and a relative of the emperor, so as to suppress Jia Chang.

Unexpectedly, Jia Chang took the firewood and drove Jia Yuanchun out of the palace, ending Mrs. Wang's dream of wealth. How could she not hate it.

Mrs. Wang is just a woman, so she has no choice but to wait for the opportunity, hoping that the prince will return to Beijing and then find a way to deal with Jia Chang.

It has been eight or nine years since Jia Yuanchun entered the palace at the age of eleven. When he returned home, his parents and sisters hardly dared to recognize each other, so naturally they had to shed tears.

Inside Rongqing Hall.

Jia Yuanchun saw Jia Mu, looking excited, with tears in his eyes, and said warmly.

"My granddaughter has met her grandmother!"

Jia's mother was also very emotional when she saw her granddaughter whom she had not seen for many years. When the Ningrong Palace was in decline, she ruthlessly sent Jia Yuanchun to the palace for the sake of future wealth. She became a female official in Kunning Palace in order to climb the dragon and the phoenix, so that she could become a queen. She became a concubine in the palace, kept her family's wealth, and suffered countless hardships, which can be explained clearly in a sentence or two.

Mother Jia felt guilty for Jia Yuanchun, her old eyes were wet, she stretched out her hand to help her, and gave instructions to the mandarin duck next to her.

"Hurry up and help me get the eldest girl up!"

Yuanyang walked over, helped Yuan Chun up, and led him to Jia Mu.

Jia Mu hugged Yuan Chun, tears streaming down her cheeks, and said excitedly.

"I have suffered so much for you all these years for the sake of the palace. Now you are finally out of the palace. Your Majesty has been so gracious to you and made you a princess. It is a blessing after all the hardships."

Jia Yuanchun shook his head slightly, feeling complicated, glanced at Jia Chang sitting next to him, and said.

"Grandma said something serious, but I didn't do anything! Now that a marquis has been born in the house, my future wealth is guaranteed, and I feel relieved!"

"I am able to leave the palace this time, thanks to Brother Chang's efforts. I have never thanked you for your help, Your Majesty!"

Jia Yuanchun bowed slightly and expressed her gratitude to Jia Chang. If Jia Chang hadn't spoken, she would never have been able to reunite with her family in her life, and she would have died in the palace. That was a place that could eat people without spitting out their bones. Where was it? So nice to treat.

Mrs. Wang was sitting below like a wooden figure with an expressionless face. She just pinched the Buddhist beads in her hand with her left hand. She hated Jia Chang in her heart so much that she hated him to death.

"It's all this evil that ruined Baoyu's hope of becoming the country's uncle. He must have done it on purpose!"

Jia Chang smiled brightly, waved his hand and said to Yuan Chun.

"Eldest sister, you are too polite. You only entered the palace for the sake of the family. The family already owes you, so there is no need to say thank you!"

Jia Yuanchun has been away from home for eighty-nine years. He no longer recognizes his sisters and brothers at home, and his heart is extremely complicated. He needs to get to know everyone again one by one. This process requires some care and inquiry.

In the evening, the people in the mansion gathered together for a meal, and Jia Chang left, ignoring Mrs. Wang's cannibalistic gaze.

From then on, Yuanchun returned to his hometown and lived in the Grand View Garden. He loved his brothers and sisters in the house and let them live together. He was no longer lonely and felt relaxed.

On this day, Zhang Changshi from the Zhongshun Prince's Palace came to the Rongguo Palace. Jia Zheng did not dare to neglect and entertained him warmly. Unexpectedly, Zhang Changshi didn't give him any face, and came up to ask questions and said in a deep voice.

"I'm not here because I'm good at building Tan Mansion. I'm here because I'm ordered by the king. I have one thing to ask for. Seeing the prince's face, I dare to trouble the old man to make the decision. Not only does the prince know about it, but even the subordinates are grateful. ."

When Jia Zheng saw Zhang Changshi's attitude of launching an army to accuse him, he was confused and confused, so he quickly raised his hands and asked.

"Your Excellency has come here on the king's orders, but I don't know what to say. I hope you will make it clear so that the students can comply with the instructions."

Zhang Changshi sneered when he heard this, and said aggressively.

"There is no need to host it, just a word from an adult is enough!"

"There is a young lady named Qiguan in Prince Zhongshun's palace. She was originally given by the inner garden by decree. She has been keeping her peace since she arrived at the palace and has not gone out for more than eight years!"

"It's different now. He didn't go back for three to five days. He searched everywhere but couldn't find any trace of him. Therefore, the prince ordered his officials to investigate everywhere. The officials searched all over Shenjing City and asked carefully. Ten people On the contrary, eight people said that he has been getting along very well with the prince who holds the title of jade in his mansion recently!"

Jia Zheng was shocked when he heard this. Jia Baoyu was ridiculous. He might not have really done this, and he didn't dare to be careless.

Zhang Changshi looked at Jia Zheng's nervous expression, sneered, and continued.

"After hearing the news, the lower official knew that the Rongguo Mansion was no better than other families and had a noble status. He did not dare to come to the manor to ask for someone without permission, so he informed the prince!"

"The prince also said that if they are just ordinary actors, it would not matter even if the prince kidnapped a hundred of them, but this official is a reward from his majesty, so it is inconvenient to give it to the prince!"

"If your son really likes Qi Guan, he can definitely invite you to the palace to request an order. Your Majesty will never stop him!"

"But if your Majesty has not requested the order, please tell your Majesty that you please release Guan Qi. On the one hand, the prince will be spared the crime of being unfaithful, and on the other hand, the subordinates will be spared the pain of searching for him."

When Jia Zheng heard this, he was shocked and angry. He immediately asked Jia Baoyu to be found and asked him clearly.

Jia Baoyu didn't know the reason, so he rushed over and saw Zhang Changshi from the Zhongshun Prince's Palace. His face changed slightly and he felt uneasy.

When Jia Zheng saw Jia Baoyu, he was very angry. His face was drooped and gloomy, and he shouted loudly.

"Damn evil! It's just that you don't study at home, why do you do these lawless things! That Qi Guan is now the loyal and obedient person of Prince Zhongshun, how careless you are, luring him out for no reason, and now the disaster is affecting you In the mansion!"

How dare Jia Baoyu admit it, otherwise he would be beaten again and just deny it.

"Master Qizhen, I don't know what you are talking about. What kind of official is Qi Guan? Why have I never heard of it, let alone teased it out?"

Jia Zheng knew Jia Baoyu's temper very well, and it was almost likely that Jia Baoyu did this, so he would continue to ask questions.

Zhang Changshi of Prince Zhongshun spoke first, sneered and said with determination.

"Young Master, there is no need to hide it. If Qiguan was not hidden at home by you, you would definitely know his whereabouts! If you had told him earlier, we would have suffered less hardship. Wouldn't you respect the virtue of the Young Master?"

Jia Baoyu waved his hands repeatedly, refusing to admit it and insisting that he was not sure.

"I don't know any official Qi. I'm afraid Chang Shi may have misunderstood him, but I don't know."

Zhang Changshi sneered when he heard this, stared at the red sweat scarf around Jia Baoyu's waist, and asked.

"Young master, why do you need to deny it? If I was still a little unsure before I met you, but now I have seen the evidence, why do you need to deny it? In front of the boss, I want to know where the red sweat scarf around your waist comes from. ?”

"This sweat scarf is a tribute from the Queen of Qianxiang Kingdom. Wear it in summer, your skin will be fragrant and there will be no sweat stains. This red sweat scarf was given to Qiguan by King Zhongshun. If you don't know Qiguan, how could you do this? Got this sweat towel?”

Jia Baoyu, a man of both genders, hit it off with the actor Qi Guan. Qi Guan gave him all her personal red sweat towels. It is self-evident what happened.

After hearing this, Baoyu was stunned and shaken. He didn't know what to do for a while, so he just said harshly.

"I don't know what you are talking about. This is just an ordinary sweat towel and has nothing to do with that Qiguan!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Changshi sneered repeatedly, pointed at Jia Baoyu, and said angrily.

"Okay, okay! Since the young master said so, I have no choice but to report back to the prince and see how the family will respond when the time comes!"

Zhang Changshi threw away his sleeves and walked away angrily.

Jia Zheng couldn't stop Zhang Changshi from leaving. He turned to look at Jia Baoyu with a gloomy face and asked.

"You don't know what kind of official you are?"

Jia Baoyu looked at Jia Zheng's terrifying look, how could he dare to admit it?

"Sir, I really don't know any official Laoshi Ziqi!"

Jia Zheng looked at Jia Baoyu suspiciously. Although he didn't believe it, he had no choice but to do so for the time being.

Jia Baoyu left Rongxi Hall, took Mingyan and hurriedly left Rongguo Mansion, left Shenjing City, and went to the Red Sandalwood Castle in the eastern suburbs twenty miles away.

Before Jia Baoyu opened the door and entered, he heard someone singing an opera inside. The voice was melodious, melodious, sad and sad.

"There are endless lovesickness and blood and tears, and the red beans are thrown away. There are endless spring willows and spring flowers that fill the painting building. I can't sleep well. After the wind and rain on the screen window, I can't forget the new and old sorrows. I can't swallow the jade grains. My throat is full of golden water. I can't see the water in the mirror." It is described as thin. The brows that cannot be spread are even more leaky. Ah! It just seems like the faint green mountains that cannot be covered, and the flowing green water."

Jia Baoyu's face showed a bit of obsession, and he quickly opened the door and entered, only to see a beautiful man in the courtyard. This man's figure and manners were graceful and graceful, and he was more charming and charming than women.

When Jia Baoyu saw this person, he immediately held his little hand and said anxiously.

"Qiguan, what's wrong is that the chief minister of Prince Zhongshun came to Rongguo's residence and saw me wearing the red sweat scarf you gave me. Although I sent him away because I said I didn't know you, he didn't believe me and said I was reporting back to Prince Zhongshun. You’d better leave Shenjing as soon as possible and go to the south!”

This man is the Xiaodanqiguan Zhang Changshi is looking for. His name is Jiang Yuhan. He is charming, gentle, and charming. He is even more charming than a woman. He is the favorite actor of Prince Zhongshun and has a good heart.

When Jiang Yuhan heard this, he was also shocked. He secretly thought that something was wrong, so he entered the house and started packing his luggage, preparing to go south overnight.

Just when Jiang Yuhan had packed up, opened the door with Jia Baoyu, and wanted to leave, a group of people surrounded him, and a proud voice came.

"Young master, didn't you say that you don't know any Qi Guan? How did you know that he lives here? Now that I have caught him on the scene, let me see how you explain it to the prince!"

Zhang Changshi walked out from behind this group of people, with a cold smile on his face, and stared at the nervous and frightened Jia Baoyu.

Zhang Changshi was sure that Jia Baoyu knew Qiguan's whereabouts and would definitely come to Qiguan and tell him that Prince Zhongshun was searching for him, so he ordered people to stay in Rongguo Mansion. As soon as Jia Baoyu left Rongguo Mansion, he would immediately take him with him. The people followed and blocked Jia Baoyu and Jiang Yuhan.

Zhang Changshi waved his hand and gave instructions to the palace guards behind him.

"Tie them up and take them back to the palace to see how the Rongguo Palace responds to the prince's accountability?!"

Several guards came over, tied up Jia Baoyu and Qiguan with ropes, and escorted them back to Prince Zhongshun's Mansion.

Rongguo Mansion, Rongxi Hall, Zhang Changshi came here again, arrogant and arrogant, looking up at Jia Zheng. This time he came to represent King Zhongshun to question the crime.

"Sir, the last time I came here, the young master in my house swore that he didn't know any Qiguan, but now he was caught red-handed in the eastern suburbs with my men. Now I want to see what my house says?"

Jia Zheng felt his brows beating wildly, and he was inexplicably horrified. Sure enough, it was that evildoer who dared to abduct an actress from the Zhongshun Prince's Palace. Now that he was caught, it was a disaster for the Rongguo Mansion. If he had known this, he should have killed this evildoer that day. .

"Chang Shi clearly noticed that I was not strict in raising my son. Such evil has happened in my house. I can let the prince do whatever he wants. He can be beaten alive or killed as he pleases. I will pretend that I never gave birth to this son!"

Jia Zheng's face was full of shame. He bowed and apologized carefully. Now that the evidence was irrefutable, what could he do?

"Without the instructions from the palace, how would your son dare to do such a thing? Just kill him casually and want to end the relationship, but there is no way!"

Zhang Changshi looked arrogant and scolded Jia Zheng, without any mercy. King Zhongshun had long wanted to cause trouble for the Jia family. The last time the treasury was cleared, King Zhongshun had contacted many nobles. , wanted to make Emperor Yuankang look bad, but he was ruined by Jia Chang. King Zhongshun was not big-minded and had long held a grudge in his heart. Now that he had discovered the mistake of Rongguo Mansion, he naturally wanted to make a fuss out of a molehill and take the opportunity to make trouble and teach Rongguo Mansion a lesson.

When Jia Zheng heard this, he secretly complained in his heart, knowing that the Zhongshun Palace did not want to simply expose the matter and wanted to use the topic to make use of it. How could they, the Rongguo Palace, resist it.

"Please Sir Chang Shi, please report back to the prince. The palace really doesn't know about this matter. It was the villain who made his own decision and abducted the actor in the palace!"

Zhang Changshi had long been ordered by King Zhongshun to embarrass the Rongguo Mansion. How could he agree with Jia Zheng's light words and go over? His face tightened, and he said sternly.

"My lord, you are trying to shirk your responsibility and abandon your car to protect your commander-in-chief. Let me tell you, this matter is not over yet. If the Rongguo Mansion cannot give the prince a satisfactory explanation, it will make your Jia family ruined!"

Zhang Changshi was so majestic at this time, he glared at Jia Zheng, arrogant and wanton, and astonishingly evil.

Jia Zheng was frightened. Faced with the aggressiveness of Prince Zhongshun, he could only tolerate it and asked in a low voice.

"I would also like to ask Chang Shi to give you some advice. What should Rongguo Mansion do to satisfy the prince and spare Rongguo Mansion this time?"

People under the eaves had to bow their heads. King Zhongshun was the most beloved son of the Supreme Emperor and the younger brother of Emperor Yuankang. As a prince, he had a noble status and the Rongguo Mansion could not afford to offend him.

Zhang Changshina held Jia Zheng in his arms, sneered when he heard this, and said darkly,

"Unless you men from Rongguo Mansion all go to the prince's mansion and kneel down to apologize to the prince, there is no way this matter will ever come to an end!"

When Jia Zheng heard this, although he felt aggrieved, he had to endure the humiliation and bear the burden for the sake of the whole family. He gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, I will take the men in the mansion to Prince Zhongshun's mansion and kowtow to the prince in person to apologize!" (End of Chapter)
