Siheyuan: I have broken space

Jia Zheng wanted to use the emperor and the virtuous concubine to suppress Jia She, but it was a pity that Jia She did not accept that trick at all.

The family paid a lot for Jia Yuanchun. They built a provincial villa and received many gifts from the eldest brother. Even when Jia Yuanchun entered the palace, it was still in the name of Rongguo Mansion. To put it bluntly, it was his name.

But how did Jia Yuanchun do it?

He, the head of the Rongguo Mansion, did not give out gifts during the holidays.

Up to now, the Jia family has not benefited from Jia Yuanchun.

How could Jia She take Concubine Xiande seriously?

"Your Majesty, she is your second wife, what does it have to do with me? I don't care. If the court accuses me, I will go to the emperor to complain. Anyway, I have a bad reputation and I am not afraid of embarrassment. I will tell the emperor, father

He kept the money for repayment and spent it on his concubine."

Jia Mu shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about? Your Majesty is the empress of our Jia Mansion. Aren't you from the Jia Mansion?"

"Has your Majesty ever regarded me as a member of the Jia family?"

Jia Mu glared at Mrs. Wang fiercely and said, "How could the empress not remember you as an uncle? Maybe the little eunuch who was working on the matter had neglected the gift given to you by the empress."

Even Jia Mu herself didn't believe this, but she still had to find a way out for Concubine Xian De. The emperor was in the process of collecting debts, and if something happened to their family, they would definitely not be well off.

Jia She didn't dare to really fall out with Jia's mother, so he asked: "How should I return the money from the Ministry of Finance? Old lady, don't count on me, I don't have much money. You said it was because of me that you spent the money, then

Just take out the account books and let me find out."

Jia Mu also knew that her words were unjustifiable and she could not push Jia She into a hurry, so she said, "Why are you so anxious? Didn't you see that everyone is not in a hurry? Although the Supreme Emperor doesn't see anyone, he won't watch everyone being pushed.

Die. Let’s see what other people do first.”

After Jia's mother finished speaking, she looked directly at Jia She, making him tremble and not daring to say anything.

After waiting for half a month, no one took the initiative to pay back the money they owed.

The reason is that they are still unwilling to come forward. Even those who have borrowed a small amount and have the ability to return it have not come forward.

Although the emperor was mentally prepared, he could not help but feel angry.

The only thing that pleased the emperor was that his true cronies did not borrow any money from the Ministry of Revenue, and even if they did, they would have secretly returned the money they owed.

The emperor's patience ran out, so he gave Lin Ruhai a hint.

Lin Ruhai sighed and called Jia Lian to his office.

Jia Lian became a sixth-rank official in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Although it was not as high as the fifth-rank official he donated, it was a real job and much better than that false position.

Since Jia Lian became the sixth-rank official of the Ministry of Revenue, Jia Zheng no longer asked him to do anything. Even as a sixth-rank official, he didn't have the face to instruct Jia Lian.

"Uncle, what do you want from my nephew?"

Lin Ruhai said: "Lian'er, you work in the Ministry of Household Affairs, so I don't need to talk to you anymore about clearing your debts."

Jia Lian said in embarrassment: "It's not that my nephew doesn't want to return it, but that he can't make the decision. A few days ago, my father had a quarrel with the old lady because of these things. The money reserved by my grandfather was misappropriated by the old lady.

Just pay back the 600,000 taels of silver you owe."

Lin Ruhai didn't know what to say. Until now, the Jia family didn't even know how much money they owed.

When Jia Daishan was in power, the Jia family did borrow 600,000 taels. Whether it was to follow the trend or to reassure the royal family, these are not important.

Later, because the Supreme Emperor was soft-hearted, there was another issue of receiving money in the capital. At that time, the Jia family borrowed another 400,000 taels.

The person who came forward was Mrs. Wang's confidant, Zhou Rui.

The servant of the second room took Jia She's post and went to the Ministry of Household Affairs to borrow money.

The household department is not a casual place, and the borrowers and handlers must be recorded clearly.

In other words, Lin Ruhai became the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. If it were anyone else, who would tell you so clearly.

Lin Ruhai said: "The loan from Rongguo Mansion was one million taels. When my father-in-law was here, he borrowed 600,000 taels, and then borrowed another 400,000 taels."

Jia Lian's face immediately turned pale. No one knew the situation at home better than he and Wang Xifeng.

The entire Rongguo Mansion relied on pawning, and it took a lot of effort to even come up with 10,000 taels, let alone one million taels.

After being reminded by Lin Daiyu, Wang Xifeng relinquished her power as the housekeeper, otherwise the couple would have advanced money into it.

Tan Chun and others are now housekeepers in the house, and Mrs. Wang asked Zhou Rui's family to pawn the money issue.

"How can it be one million taels?"

Lin Ruhai took out the account books of Rongguo Mansion and said, "Take a look for yourself."

After reading the account book, Jia Lian knew what was going on and said, "This is the money borrowed by the second wife."

Lin Ruhai said: "She used the post of the First Prize Army. This account will be credited to your father, and it will also be credited to you in the future."

Of course Jia Lian understands.

If it weren't for the second bedroom still using the Rongguofu name, I'm afraid the two families would have split up a long time ago. All the family's property was taken away by the second bedroom, leaving the eldest family with only unpayable debts.

The old lady and the second roommate are not in a hurry to pay back the money, I'm afraid that's what they have in mind.

With a plop, Jia Lian knelt on the ground and begged, "Please uncle, please save my nephew's life."

Lin Ruhai said: "The sooner you pay back the debt owed by your family, the better. If the family is not divided, the debt is the debt of the two families. If the family is divided, it belongs to you and your father."

Jia Lian: "My nephew understands, but the old lady will not agree."

Lin Ruhai said: "That's all, for your aunt's sake, I will give you a method. Concubine Xiande did not confer a gold book, just because the Jia family owes money and has not repaid it."

Jia Lian didn't know what the golden book was at all, and he didn't understand what Lin Ruhai meant.

Lin Ruhai lamented the decline of the Jia family in his heart, and then explained the meaning of the golden book to him, saying: "To put it bluntly, if Concubine Xiande does not have a golden book, she is not considered an empress, but can only be regarded as the minister of Fengzao Palace. You say,

Who in the family is most anxious about this matter?"

"The old lady and the second wife." Jia Lian blurted out.

"Yes, whether Concubine Xian De has a gold book or not has nothing to do with your big house. Speaking of which, it is most beneficial to your big house if she doesn't have a gold book."

Since Jia Yuanchun became a concubine, her family has spent countless money, but she is not even a serious empress.

But the second brother-in-law took advantage of the empress's limelight to dominate the house. In fact, almost all the maids and women in the house were from the second brother-in-law.

Even if the empress did not give a gift to the eldest son, she would be angry and dare not say anything.

A few days ago, Jia She complained in front of Jia Mu, which was Dafang's strongest protest.

Jia Lian was already alert and understood what Lin Ruhai meant, so he went home to discuss it with Jia She.

This matter cannot be accomplished by the two of them alone. They must unite with Jia She to succeed.
