210. Chapter 209 Liquidation


Chapter 209 Liquidation

In Rongguo Mansion, a group of little girls were worrying about how to herd the cows.

This is not their area of ​​expertise.

But no matter how bad they are, they still know that cattle are a good thing for farmers.

"Cousin, when you rowed the cow and added the cow, did you actually think of this?"

Min Mei secretly asked Lan Zhi, her eyes were bright and she knew it at a glance. She was also happy that the cow could become a worry for Jia Zheng and his wife.

"It's enough to know some things. Why do you tell them?"

Lanzhi nodded his cousin's head, "You have to think about it this way, I took the cow because I didn't want to give them any advantage. I added the cow because it was for the sake of my grandfather and grandmother."

"Oh~~"

Min Mei couldn't help laughing, "I know."

Her father's daring to treat them like that also had something to do with his second uncle and second aunt who were once the head of the family.

After moving into Rongguo Mansion, although the second uncle and second aunt have been unlucky, no matter how unlucky they are, they are not as difficult and desperate as she and her mother once were.

Min Mei hates them.

I have always wanted to find some opportunities to make their bad luck worse.

Unfortunately, she never found the opportunity.

Now...

"Cousin, Aunt Dongfu sent someone to bring a new plate of snacks. I will give them to you."

"Give them all to me?"

Lan Zhi laughed loudly, "Am I the one who needs your plate of snacks? I want to thank you, right? Do you see that?"

She raised her feet and said, "My boots are a little old. Get me a new pair."

"...It's done!"

Min Mei looked at her boots, "Do you want sheepskin or deerskin?"

Seeing that the second uncle and second aunt will be in pain for the rest of their lives, let her bleed just once!

“Let’s get a pair of the same!”

Lan Zhi squeezed her cousin without mercy, "I will pay for half of the goods from your fur shop."

ah?

Min Mei was overjoyed, "It's a deal!"

To make a living, their family opened a fur shop.

However, there are quite a few shops like this in the capital, and it’s difficult to get good supplies.

"Natural!"

The two sisters high-fived each other and made the deal happily. In the Lixiang Courtyard, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao got together and were happily doing needlework.

The master is not at home, and the wife is not at home either. They no longer need to set rules or wait on them all the time.

“It’s so warm in the house.”

Aunt Zhao put away the last stitch in her purse and said with a smile: "In previous years, the two of us would take turns lifting the door curtain."

Bamboo curtains should be lifted in summer and cotton curtains should be lifted in winter.

The former is okay, as their bodies can hold up, but in winter...

One is cold and the other is hot, making it easy to get sick.

"Yes, nowadays... this is how people live."

Never, never have to wait on anyone again.

Aunt Zhou is very satisfied with her current life.

In this family, it is not her turn to serve the old lady, and she can barely be considered an elder to the uncle or grandma.

Besides, the uncle and aunt were very polite and took good care of her because of her honest duty. They gave her an extra pair of silver earrings for the New Year jewelry.

There weren't many things, but Aunt Zhou was very satisfied.

"My wife is not at home, so I am the head of the family." She glanced at Jia Huan, who was sleeping on the kang, "When he comes back, you can bring Huan'er over and call him brother a few more times."

"I know."

The wife likes to rub people off and deprive them of their girly things, but the eldest grandma is kind.

Aunt Zhao said: "Have you not seen these two days? I bring Huan'er here every day?"

If you can't rely on me, you can naturally rely on me and grandma.

"Alas~"

She sighed with a smile on her face, "I don't know if my wife can take care of that cow well."

Hum~

Did you rub her before?

Are you okay now?

About to be rubbed by a cow.

When she first heard the news, Aunt Zhao was stunned for a while, then covered her face and had a good laugh in the room, not to mention how happy it was.

The two of them were smiling happily here, but Jia Zhu could only sigh.

"Now that we have decided it in the first place, we can no longer think about it."

Li Wan advised him, "The master and his wife have to slowly adapt to the current life. In fact, as long as they survive this initial period, they will always get better later."

"I know."

Jia Zhu lowered her head, "But knowing is one thing, worrying is another."

He is a son, and he is living a good life, calling slaves and maids, but his parents...

Jia Zhu felt very sorry.

"I don't know if they know how to put more firewood at night. If they don't put it..., maybe they will freeze."

"...Don't worry!"

Li Wan was speechless, "The hot Kang will not cool down all at once. When it feels cold, the master and his wife will always get up and put firewood."

"Really?"

Jia Zhu had never done this before, so she couldn't help but have a little hope in her eyes when she heard this.

This night, Jia Zheng and Wang really woke up from the cold.

They forgot to put firewood.

If you want to start a fire and start it again, it's not that easy.

It's not that easy to hit the flint. It was hard to hit the flint, and the flammable thatch was not delivered in time.

The two couples shivered and hurriedly cooperated. It took more than half an hour to get the kang warm again.

When they lay down again, neither of them wanted to talk.

However, I couldn't fall asleep for a while.

How come their lives are like this?

Jia Zheng was puzzled.

Wang was thinking about her brother Wang Zisheng and whether he knew his current situation.

If you know, can you secretly bribe someone in this village and take care of their daily life?

If the eldest brother was at home, he would definitely do this, but the second brother...

Wang had no choice but to blame her eldest son Jia Zhu, who was now an adult, and Yuan Chun, who was married.

I blame them for not knowing how to adapt at all.

Parents are living a hard life, how can they sleep peacefully?

"What sound?"

When Jia Zheng heard the sound of the sound, he immediately reacted. When he turned over and sat up, he stared and shouted, "No, the old cow peed again."

……

The queen's reward showed a different kind of closeness.

Shen Ning got a share of everything from shark fins, abalone, sea cucumbers, blood swallows, etc. to all kinds of furs and inner jewelry.

This is the largest reward the palace has given to the outside world since the fall of the Supreme Emperor.

Originally the queen didn't want to make it so big, but the emperor heard about it and specifically asked her to add more, make it more grand, and send it out this morning.

These days, many people in the court know that the sky in Dazhao has gradually changed.

The emperor and the queen have always been stingy, and now they are like this...

The adults from various ministries and the censors at the Censorship Station raised their eyelids and looked over the top. Mrs. Shen of Ningguo Mansion is the least threatening person to them. If the Emperor and Queen want to reward her, then reward her!

Everyone knows that the most noble couple in the world can turn over and become masters, which is related to the death of Jia Jing and the prince.

In fact, the Emperor's stroke would be better than another chaos in the capital.

Over the years, everyone has been very nervous, really afraid that one day the ax will strike.

In the history books, when two dragons came to power at the same time, they were both accompanied by bloody events.

Besides, the Supreme Emperor is really old and confused.

He clearly abdicated long ago, but he still clings on to power.

Your Majesty...it's not easy!

The adults from various ministries made a mental note of Ningguo Mansion. After knowing that the emperor and queen were thinking of their family, they focused their attention on Zhen Yingjia, who was about to enter the capital.

The Zhen family owes the most money to the treasury.

After the meritorious service, both generations of father and grandfather were close ministers of the emperor. When Princess Zhen entered the palace, the Jin Dynasty gained power, and the Zhen family dominated the south of the Yangtze River.

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

Although their treasury owed money mostly due to the Emperor's southern tour, it is undeniable that the Zhen family also benefited a lot from it.

Besides, isn't the Supreme Emperor also compensating for Zhen Yingjia to succeed his father?

In addition to the salt tax in Jiangnan, everything else is missing from the Zhen family. Isn't that just asking them to cut back on spending and then pay it back to the national treasury?

But after so many years, they have cut back on expenditure, but they have never repaid the treasury one tael of silver they owed.

I bet all my money on Prince Jin, but I don’t think about whether Prince Jin is the kind of person who can support him?

Jia Jing's death touched many people's nerves.

This is not because they have much friendship with Jia Jing, but because they are frightened by King Jin’s madness...

Two dynasties died in the second generation. They died, but how many families and people were affected?

If it weren't for the crown prince's ignition, King Jin would most likely inherit the throne.

If it weren't for Jia Jing's second fire, it would have been the emperor's confusion. King Jin would have gone crazy when he felt that there was no hope of winning the throne.

Who dares to say that he is lucky then?

The rumors of impeaching the King of Jin and the Zhen family flew like snowflakes on the emperor's jade case.

The emperor was very happy.

It was just the old man who fell. If he was too impatient, it would appear that he was not a filial son.

He kept the secrets about the Zhen family, but he temporarily suppressed the secrets about the King of Jin.

King Jin has to deal with it, but it has to be done after the New Year.

The emperor classified these as trivial matters for the time being, and he was now concerned about strategies to control the Japanese.

The King of Jin dared to collude with the Japanese pirates, and the Japanese pirates had an unknown number of troops, watching around the capital.

He couldn't bear this.

"Your Majesty!"

Dong Xiaoquan, who was summoned, saw the emperor looking at the map, and his heart moved, "Do you want to implement the strategy to control the Japanese?"

“Not bad!”

The emperor nodded, "Now that the north is safe, and there are princes in the south, it won't be long before the treasury will gradually be full." Everyone knew that he had no money. He had no power before. Without money, he could only endure it and work hard to coordinate. But now that the father has fallen, the smarter ones who once relied on the old man have begun to pay back the money.

Now he doesn't have to worry about money from the treasury.

Taking the initiative to return the favor, he remembered the merits of their father and ancestors and the Supreme Emperor, and that was all.

If you don’t take the initiative to pay it back...

After he has been busy for this period, I'm sorry, he will have to settle the matter.

Anyway, the emperor has planned to liquidate the Zhen family.

The decree for Zhen Yingjia to enter the capital was issued, and he sent out several decrees in succession. Obviously there was a group of people who were eyeing the Zhen family, but secretly he had another group of people.

"The policy of controlling Japanese invaders will benefit the country and the people and should be implemented."

Which emperor doesn't want to leave a mark in the history books?

The emperor also had his own ambitions. "What I mean is that Aiqing will formally propose it at the court meeting tomorrow. Let everyone debate it first so that people can have a clear idea. Next spring, it will be made clear to the world."
< br>

this?

No wonder Mrs. Shen was suddenly rewarded heavily.

Dong Xiaoquan thought for a while, "Yes!"

"How's your investigation going on with the Japanese pirates?"

Now that they decided to take action there, they had to catch more Japanese pirates.

The emperor asked Dong Xiaoquan, "Don't tell me, I still don't have a clue."

"...It's easy to get a clue."

Dong Xiaoquan was not used to the emperor's temper, "The emperor asked me to interrogate the king of Jin."

Those men in black were his people.

"You don't let me interrogate you, and you let me search like a headless fly. Isn't this embarrassing our Shuntian Mansion?"

It was urgent that he quit serving as an official in Shuntian Prefecture.

Dong Xiaoquan has been suffering a lot these days.

The Supreme Emperor fell in front of him.

Although his intentions are all business, but...

Generally speaking, the Supreme Emperor treated him well as the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture.

Dong Xiaoquan felt very guilty these days, so he tolerated even when King Jing and others made trouble for him.

But for King Jin, he didn't want to endure it.

This man has no king, no father, no country, no family, and is extremely shameless.

He couldn't swallow the breath of being shut up in the sect's residence and being so nice and angry, "Your Majesty, do you know that you are boosting his arrogance and may even cause accidents?"

Now that he has been captured, he should be completely pinned to death with thunderous means.

This means that King Jin was captured in the palace, otherwise...

Based on King Jin's momentum against the Jia family, Dong Xiaoquan guessed that he might have hidden an army and launched a mutiny overnight.

"Come, come, have a drink of water."

The emperor was scolded, but he poured him a glass of water in a good voice, "I know that I was not decisive enough in handling some matters. However, my beloved must also be considerate of me. As soon as the Supreme Emperor fell, I will deal with Jin." King, in order to avoid appearing too cool and cold-hearted, I still..."

At this point, the emperor sighed in embarrassment, "Because of Jia Jing's death, the emperor thought of his brother the prince back then. Once this matter is investigated..., it will be a shocking case."

He needs stability in the court.

The prince only has one daughter, and there is no threat to his throne. He is willing to investigate, but this investigation... Although the court has been purged, not one of his royal brothers can escape.

Can he kill them all?

"You can check, but I have to tell you that I can only check with Prince Jin for the time being."

"...Is it temporary?"

Dong Xiaoquan knew the emperor's scruples and was looking for the key.

"Yes!"

The emperor said: "In the case of the crown prince, I am afraid that all my royal brothers were involved. Please tolerate me for two years. When the time comes, you will do whatever you want depending on the seriousness of it."

When the time comes, the demotion will be justified.

The royal brothers all hoped that they would just be demoted.

"In that case..."

Dong Xiaoquan thought for a moment, "Then I will go to the clan mansion first."

"...Don't worry, don't worry!"

The emperor grabbed him again and said, "You can try, but it's the New Year."

"Does the Emperor still remember the Hetao back then?"

Dong Xiaoquan stared into his eyes and said: "The Emperor gave up this great opportunity because he was ill."

Emperor: "..."

"Prince Cha Jin, there is no conflict with the Emperor during the New Year."

Dong Xiaoquan stood with his head held high, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

he?

What else could he say?

No matter what, this old boy can push him back.

The emperor did not want to humiliate himself, "Yes, yes, everything my dear said is right."

He sighed in his heart, "Okay, Aiqing can check whatever she wants."
