During the morning court, Emperor Jing'an did not say as usual, "If you have a foundation, you will report early, but if you don't have a foundation, you will retreat from the court."

Instead, he directly asked a eunuch to read out the key parts of Jia Rui's memorial to impeach Jia Zhen.

Then, Emperor Jing'an patted the imperial case directly, called Jia Zheng by name, and asked -

"Jia Zhen's lawlessness has turned the entire Ningguo Mansion upside down! As his uncle, you don't know anything about it?"

Jia Zheng knelt down in panic and said, "It is a crime for a humble minister to die"!

Seeing Emperor Jing'an getting angry at Jia Zheng, all the officials were shocked!

You know, Jia Zheng's eldest daughter Jia Yuanchun has been canonized as a "virtuous concubine" by Emperor Jing'an.

Moreover, not long ago, Concubine Yuan had just announced her marriage.

It can be said that both Jia's family and Jia Zheng can be called "the holy family is prosperous."

Under such circumstances, Emperor Jing'an reprimanded Jia Zheng in front of the court just for a memorial from Jia Rui?

You know, Jia Zheng is the actual head of the Rongguo Mansion!

But Jia Zhen, who was impeached by Jia Rui, was the patriarch of Jia Mansion and the head of Ningguo Mansion!

Emperor Jing'an turned to Xia Shouzhong who was standing there and said——

"Draft the decree! First, depose the patriarch of Jia Zhen, and appoint Jiariti as the patriarch of Jia Mansion!"

His Highness and his ministers were immediately shocked!

You know, Jia Zhen is the fourth generation patriarch of the Jia family.

The first generation patriarch was Ningguo Gong Jiayan.

The second generation patriarch is Jia Daihua, the son of Ning Guogong.

The third generation patriarch is Jia Jing, the son of Jia Daihua and the father of Jia Zhen.

In the history of the Dashun Dynasty, it was rare for an emperor to directly intervene in the household affairs of his courtiers!

Now, Emperor Jing'an has directly intervened in the Jia family's household affairs!

How can this not frighten the ministers?

Emperor Jing'an continued -

"Second, remove Jia Zhen from the hereditary post of Third Grade Duke Weilie General! At the same time, remove his son Jia Rong from the post of Fifth Grade Dragon Banner!"

Jia Zhen's Third Grade official is hereditary.

Jia Rong's Fifth Grade officer was bought by Jia Zhen for one thousand two hundred taels of silver, following the path of Dai Quan, the eunuch in charge of the Daming Palace!

Now, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong, father and son, were directly dismissed from their official positions by Emperor Jing'an!

The ministers were frightened again and looked at each other.

Jia Zheng was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground!

Upon seeing this, Emperor Jing'an ordered the eunuchs to help Jia Zheng up and comfort him with kind words, especially emphasizing——

Because Jia Rui impeached only Ningguo Mansion! Therefore, only Ningguo Mansion is targeted, Rongguo Mansion is not involved!

Emperor Jing'an continued to issue decrees——

"Third, order Jia Rui to lead the inspection department to inspect Ningguo Mansion! Find out the crimes of Jia Zhen and his son! Ningguo Mansion will grant Jia Rui residence from now on."

Emperor Jing'an's three decrees are intertwined, one is more severe than the other, and the other is more shocking than the last!

The people of King Beijing wanted to plead for Jia Zhen, but Emperor Jing'an announced his resignation!

It can be said that since Emperor Jing'an came to the throne, he has always appeared in front of his ministers with a gentle face, and has never been so resolute as he is today!

Emperor Jing'an's abnormal behavior today caught the ministers of King Beijing's faction by surprise!

In the Grand View Garden, the time is quiet.

Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, Jia Yingchun, Jia Tanchun, Jia Xichun, and Li Wan all moved into the Grand View Garden, together with Miaoyu, a female Taoist priest who led the practice.

Since Sister Wang Feng got married, she did not move into Grand View Garden.

Although Li Wan was also married, he was a widow, so he moved into Grand View Garden.

It can be said that there is only one "permanent resident" of Grand View Garden, Jia Baoyu! This can be called "ten thousand red flowers and a little green".

On this day, Miaoyu was playing Go with Jia Xichun in her monastery.

Watching the battle were Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai.

In fact, the three people watching the game spent less time watching chess and more time chatting, which sometimes disrupted the thoughts of Miaoyu and Jia Xichun.

Miaoyu is an outsider, so naturally she won't say anything.

Jia Xichun couldn't help but remind him——

"Brother Bao, Sister Bao, Sister Lin, it's too noisy!"

Suddenly, Jia Baoyu's eldest girl, Xiren, ran in with a worried look on her face and shouted -

"Something big happened!"

Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai asked in unison——

"What happened?"

Even Miaoyu looked up at the attacker, but Jia Xichun was still looking at the chessboard.

Fang Ding was shocked and said——

"Uncle Zhen was removed from the clan head by the emperor, and uncle Rui became the new clan leader. Both uncle Zhen and Brother Rong were dismissed by the emperor. The emperor also issued an edict, asking Uncle Rui to lead the inspection department to inspect Ningguo Mansion and arrest Uncle Zhen and Brother Rong. Moreover, the emperor gave Ningguo Mansion to Uncle Rui."

The news that Xiren said was like a bolt from the blue!

Xue Baochai's beautiful face was calm and calm.

However, in his heart, Xue Baochai has set off a storm——

The man she originally looked down upon, the man she humiliated by burning books, actually rose up in the officialdom of the Dashun Dynasty at the speed of a comet!

Jia Baoyu scolded directly——

"The villain is in power and the villain is successful! This Jia Rui is a bad wolf!"

It is said that Jia Rui and Jia Baoyu were once "classmates", and Jia Rui was also Jia Baoyu's "squad leader".

However, Jia Baoyu didn't have a good impression of Jia Rui at all!

First, Jia Baoyu knew that Jia Rui once wanted to eat Sister Wang Feng’s tofu! And Jia Baoyu never treats Sister Wang Feng as a sister-in-law, but as a biological sister!

Secondly, Jia Rui once went to Jia Baoyu's room under the guise of delivering books to Jia Baoyu, and Lin Daiyu happened to be there too. Jia Rui, with his evil eyes, kept looking at Lin Daiyu's face, and Jia Baoyu happened to see it!

Hearing Jia Baoyu scolding Jia Rui, Xiren and Xue Baochai stopped him at the same time.
