Chapter 1747: Ren Zijuan for help

Chapter 1747 Renzijuan asks for help

Jia Rui left, but Feng Ziying, who was full of thoughts, was left behind.

Jia Rui is here to show his goodwill, and Feng Ziying can still see this.

I just didn't expect that Long Jinwei had put in such deep efforts. I guess it was also the imperial court who had weighed and considered it again and felt that since they wanted to decide the world in one battle, they would have to use all their strength to fight a big battle. , the expenses will definitely be like water. If you are not fully prepared, you will be in trouble when the time comes.

Rather than planning these things at that time, it is better to do everything that needs to be done first.

Of course the Jia family cannot escape, and it is estimated that the Niu family, Wang family, Shi family, and even more Wuxun families cannot escape.

Among the Four Kings, Eight Dukes and Twelve Marquises, how many of them dare to say that they have nothing to do with Prince Yizhong? It is possible that the Duke of Dongping, Nan'an, Xining and Beijing will all flee southward from this disaster.

Feng Ziying estimated that after the last defeat of the Santun camp, a large number of martial arts disciples in the Beijing camp redeemed themselves and delivered a large amount of silver to the Inner Khalkha people, which stimulated some people in the DPRK.

This bunch of Wu Xun families who have been sucking blood from the imperial court for decades are not good at fighting, but they are better at making money than anyone else. When they really go to battle to defend their family and country, they all collapse at the first touch. Shouldn't the imperial court squeeze out such a pustule? A squeeze?

It just so happens that there is such an opportunity now, and I am afraid that it is inevitable that some people will be concerned about it.

Feng Ziying can't control other families, but what about the Jia family?

No matter what, it definitely won’t work, but what measures should be taken and how to manage it?

 The news has not completely spread yet, but Jia Rui has made it so obvious. It is estimated that there are only three to five days before the actual action is taken.

I'm afraid this time it won't be like the Jingtong Ercang case. There is no role for the Shuntian Mansion. At most, some people will be provided to help guard the house. The ones who take action will definitely be the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Long Jinwei.

While hesitating, Qingwen came in leaning forward. Feng Ziying was surprised and hurried forward: "Why don't you get up even if you don't want to rest? Aren't you afraid of hurting your body?"

Qingwen's face turned red, but she refused to admit defeat: "How can she be so delicate and beautiful? Master, the mandarin duck is here. The slave girl is very anxious to see her, and her face is haggard. She is afraid that she won't leave without seeing you."

Yuanyang came twice in the past two days, but Feng Ziying was too busy and only came home late at night, so she didn't see anyone. If she didn't see anyone again, even if she complained, she would feel that Feng Ziying had disappeared intentionally.

Feng Ziying sighed. Sooner or later, what should come will come and he must face it, but he also has a sense of discretion in his heart, so he will see it when he sees it.

Yuanyang's face was still red when he came in. Although he still had a haggard look on his face, it could be seen that he was still a little shy.

Feng Ziying was a little surprised, but when she saw Qingwen's awkward and weird look, she immediately realized that the two girls were closely related. It was probably Yuanyang who noticed the abnormality after Qingwen broke the melon, so she dug into the root cause and asked Qingwen With such an expression, of course Yuanyang, who is still the daughter of a yellow flower, is also ashamed of such things.

After bringing Yuanyang in, Qingwen turned around and went out. Yuanyang glanced at Qingwen's back, and then said softly: "Uncle, I finally gave Qingwen an explanation. The slaves are all thinking about you bringing Qingwen into Feng Mansion." For several years, I have refused to accept Qingwen into the house. You even accepted Xiangling and Siqi, but why are you so mean to Qingwen? Now I am finally relieved."

"Are you really relieved?" Feng Ziying smiled half-heartedly, "But I haven't accepted you yet, how can I feel relieved?"

Yuanyang's face turned as red as a bride's hijab, she clenched her fists, pouted fiercely, and stamped her feet, "What did you say?!"

"Didn't you hear what Yuanyang said?" Feng Ziying said with a smile: "I am also thinking of going to Rongguo Mansion in the past two days to discuss with the old lady and ask you to come over. What do you think?"

Yuanyang's face suddenly turned pale, and his body started to tremble: "Master, are you..."

This girl of Lan Xinhui is very sensitive. Feng Ziying sighed inwardly. Regarding this issue, he was a little worried before Jia Rui came, but after Jia Rui came, he was more sure. He pondered for a moment: "Yuanyang, you all know Jia Jing." Mr. He Zheng is now working in Nanjing, and the Niu family, Wang family, and Shi family are all involved. Under such circumstances, how could the imperial court not have any means to take action?"

Yuanyang swayed and almost collapsed to the ground. Feng Ziying hurriedly stepped forward and helped her sit on a chair. "Oh, you can't bear this kind of thing. Did the old lady ask you to come? She was afraid. You had a premonition, right?"

Yuanyang's face turned pale, he bit his lip and nodded: "My ancestor is not in good health. He has not been able to get out of bed these days. He is feeling better today. Except for the eldest man in the house who is always blaming everyone and criticizing everyone, everyone else is a godless person. , Second Master Bao got drunk every day, Third Master Huan came back, and then went back to the academy..."

This is the current situation of the Jia family?

 Feng Ziying smiled bitterly.

Jia She can’t be counted on, so who else can be counted on?

 Jia Baoyu? Save it, I spend all my time getting drunk to anesthetize myself. I guess I regretted getting married to Niu’s family, but what can I do now?

Even if you want to reconcile with Niu's daughter now, it's too late, and the court won't let you stay out of the matter just because you reconcile now, not to mention that there are still matters involving Jia Jing and Jia Zheng.

"Yuanyang, I won't hide it from you. The situation of the Jia family is indeed very bad now. After all, it turns out that except for the Xue family, the other three families in Jinling are involved. Not to mention the Wang family, Wang Ziteng is the head of the family and bears the brunt. Jia Jing Juran's golden cicada escaped from its shell and went to Jinling, but why did Mr. Zheng go to this muddy water? Hey, he probably couldn't help himself..."

"Yes, yes, yes, our ancestors also said that with the second master's temperament, how could he go into such muddy water? He must have been forced by someone in Jiangxi and couldn't help himself." Yuanyang said quickly.

"Yuanyang, you have to make the court believe what you say. Thousands of miles apart, the court won't listen no matter how clearly you explain it." Feng Ziying sighed, "Sister-in-law Zhu's father also joined the Nanjing Puppet Dynasty and became the right minister of the Ministry of Rites. You said that if this and that branch are involved, how can the court let the Jia family go?"

When Feng Ziying said this, Yuanyang's heart fell to the bottom, and she squeezed the sweat towel tightly with both hands, "Then uncle, what should I do now? There are thousands of people in the house, most of them are old, weak, women and children. what to do?"

"What should we do?" Feng Ziying spread her hands, "Now we can only wait. There is no good way. We can only come up with countermeasures when the court has an explanation."

"Can you guess what the imperial court will do to the Jia family?" Yuanyang knew that this was a bit embarrassing, but at this time she had no choice but to ask.

"It's hard to say, but I'm sure I won't be lenient." Feng Ziying weighed it, "It's inevitable to confiscate the house, and it's very possible that the three clans will be implicated, but there are so many Jia family members, I guess it's hard for these direct descendants to escape, and the others People may not matter to the imperial court, and they will not be pursued too closely."

Looking at Yuanyang's increasingly white cheeks, Feng Ziying smiled: "This kind of treatment cannot be done in a short time. First, seal the Rongning Second Mansion, and then the main relatives of the Jia family will definitely not be able to escape. Most of them will Sending him to jail for a period of time will depend on the attitude of the court and the performance of the Jia family. If he can repent or perform meritorious service, he may be given a lighter sentence..."

"But the whole family is finished anyway, isn't it?" Yuanyang's voice was a little hoarse, "But the eldest girl is still in the palace and is a noble concubine."

"Don't expect too much from the eldest lady. I'm afraid she won't be able to protect herself. Now several princes are fighting for the position of supervising the country. They are all crazy..." Feng Ziying said lightly: "She just leans there casually now. She will be criticized by the other party, and her use value is very limited. The party she relies on will not go to great lengths to protect her. If she is not careful, she will only get herself into a quagmire, so why bother? Be smart? If anything, it’s better to hide aside and stop getting involved in these troubles.”

Feng Ziying said it very harshly, judging directly from Yuan Chun's own value. Hearing this made his heart tremble, but he understood that this was probably the case in the palace.

Look, every time Baoqin comes back, he always looks gloomy. Sometimes I listen to Baoqin talking to his ancestors and his wife. He talks about the difficult situation of the eldest girl in the palace and that she doesn’t have a strong enough backer. , and had no heirs, and the emperor did not have much affection for her. The status of this kind of concubine in the palace can be imagined.

“Uncle, can it be that the Jia family can only wait to die like this?” Yuanyang bit her lips, and there was already a hint of crying in her words.

"Yuanyang, major events such as rebellion and rebellion have been like this in all dynasties. People who are close to each other will die, and people who are touched will die. Houses are confiscated and exterminated, and even three tribes and nine tribes are implicated. It is also very common. I have never encountered it before. In the play, Haven't you heard of it?" Feng Ziying looked at the other party: "I also want to help the Jia family, but for this kind of matter, even if I become the chief assistant, I often can't help but be the master. But I promise you, I will do my best to help the Jia family. After all, I and the Jia family are still closely related by marriage. Baochai and Yingchun have also married into the Feng family. And you, I still miss you to take care of the house for me..."

Yuanyang's mood at this time was also one of sadness and joy, mixed with endless worry and fear.

She also heard the meaning of Feng Ziying's words just now, which was to take advantage of the imperial edict to get herself out of the Jia family first, and then she would be able to escape. But what could she do about such a thing? Gotta get out?

  She would rather die if she had to leave her ancestors and the Jia family behind in such a critical moment.

"Master, I know this." Yuanyang took a deep breath, "I will go back and report to my ancestors now..."

"Well, depending on the situation, if possible, I will come to your house tonight, but I can only give some relief to the people in the house. Well, you also go back and tell the old lady, don't have any other ideas. "I'm afraid Captain Long has already put the Jia family under surveillance." Feng Ziying said calmly.
