Chapter 93 Lixiangyuan
The King of Jin received the message from Jiangnan, and of course the Emperor also received it.
He did not bother to be happy about the five million taels of cash and nearly two hundred thousand taels of gold that he was about to receive.
The emperor's entire mind was shocked by three small-scale ambush battles outside Yangzhou City.
Although they considered that the Li family might abandon business and become bandits, they did not expect that they would be so courageous. Not only did they seize the salt farms in the south of the Yangtze River, but they also wanted to rob other salt merchants in Yangzhou.
After the battle, when the number of people was counted, Li Laoqi of the Li family still escaped.
Bang~
The emperor punched the jade case and said to the leader of the secret guard who was waiting for him to speak: "Send the order and seize Li Haifeng at all costs, expand the battle circle, and everyone with the Li family All the wealthy families with whom we have close contacts will be checked for me.
If there are any clues..."
"Yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was no one in his hall.
But the emperor still couldn't calm down.
He read the secret report again.
Finally noticed the word Jia Lian.
It was this boy who, in order to avenge his brother Jia Zhen, broke into the Li family and made a big fuss. He also pushed the family outside the gate and rewarded each member of the younger generation of the Li family with ten boards.
Fortunately, he got involved, otherwise Li Haimu would have fled with his family long ago.
The emperor walked around the palace several times and finally went to Shoukang Palace again.
At this time, Jia Lian had already transferred Jia Min and his cousin Shuilu Company to Pingzhou.
He also heard the news from the passing merchants that the Li family had colluded with the water bandits and had been captured.
“Aunt, Li Haifeng of the Li family is fleeing outside. Do you think we should find a bodyguard to escort us?”
Jia Lian did not expect that the Li family, who was under his control like a quail that day, would dare to confront the officers and soldiers.
Since they are so courageous, then... they will definitely not make it easy for him if they have the chance.
“Look for it!”
Jia Min nodded without hesitation, “Fuwei Escort Agency seems to have a semicolon here, and its reputation has been very good over the years.”
Safety first.
Both his son and daughter are too young, so Jia Min doesn't dare to have any surprises.
"The nephew is going to invite someone right now."
Jia Lian left in a hurry.
But he didn't know that Li Haifeng'ao's eyes were red at this time and he was walking into Pingzhou with a caravan.
His caravan does both legitimate business and secret work.
This time, the main purpose was to give Jia Lian and Lin Ruhai a good look, so when they left Yangzhou, his troops also left Yangzhou.
I just didn’t expect that the family members who were about to leave after being fully prepared would be captured by the troops transferred from Nanjing.
When he received the news, he wanted to go back and save people.
But then I received the sad news that my eldest brother was dead.
Li Haifeng knew that the eldest brother did not want him to go back.
My eldest brother once told him that if something happened to his family one day and he died, he should never go back.
The sky is huge outside, and when the time comes, he must take his own safety into consideration.
Li Haifeng didn't go back, but he couldn't swallow this breath.
The reason why the eldest brother was delayed was entirely because of Jia Lian.
If he hadn’t beaten his nephews and asked for medical advice, at least the children would have left.
Now...
“Have you found out where to stay?”
“Liansheng Inn.”
“Then go to Liansheng Inn.”
"Seventh Master..."
The entourage looked embarrassed, "Liansheng Inn has been booked by the Jia family. It is said that the original guests asked Jia Lian to pay silver compensation and changed the inn."
Li Haifeng: "..."
His teeth gritted loudly, "It seems that they have also received the news and are scared."
The entourage did not dare to speak.
Jia Lian looks like a young man, but in fact he acts cautiously and tries his best to stop at stations along the way.
Master Qi insisted on seeking revenge, but many brothers were sent back. Now in terms of numbers, they no longer have an advantage.
If you want to take revenge, you have to either take it by surprise or...use poison.
But whether it is the former or the latter, once they do..., they may be floating on the sea for the rest of their lives.
"Go, find one close to Liansheng Inn."
Li Haifeng's eyes were sinister, "If you try to find a way to get in touch with them, it's best to go all the way to Beijing."
Jia Min still wants to go back to Beijing to visit relatives?
Stop dreaming.
He must kill their family at the place closest to Beijing.
His family is gone, and the Lin family and Jia family will not be able to live well.
Especially the Lin family...
Li Haifeng hated Lin Ruhai deeply.
Without him, the Li family would never have had a grudge against the Jia family. Without him, cousin Hai Zhong would not have taken action against the Jia family.
"But Master Qi, Lin Duo, the steward of the Lin family, knows you."
"From now on, I am not Master Qi, I am a chess piece in the caravan."
< br>Li Haifeng was in the carriage on the spot, taking off his brocade clothes, "Besides, I am sick. It was you, Chang Lei, who saw me as pitiful, so you took care of me and let me live in the mule carriage at the back."
"...Yes!"
Chang Lei looked at their seventh master and finally agreed.
……
In the ancestral hall of Ningguo Mansion, Jia Zheng has been waiting for his mother to save him.
But day by day, my mother just didn’t show up.
Although my daughter and daughter-in-law, Mrs. Li, had knee pads given to them by the trustee, their life has become increasingly difficult as they have been kneeling for so many days.
But he still held back.
The Supreme Emperor has granted marriage, so there is no way Xinpinghou will not take action.
According to the almanac, today is a good day.
Jia Zheng had been looking forward to Xinpinghou early in the morning.
Wang is also looking forward to it.
It is impossible for parents not to attend her daughter's good day.
At this moment, the footsteps outside were different from usual, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Sure enough, the door of the ancestral hall was pushed open, and it was Lin Zhixiao who came in, "Master, second master, today is the day when Marquis Xinping proposes marriage to our family. What the old lady means is that you first Shower, change clothes, and receive guests.”
“Well, let’s go!”
Jia She doesn't care.
Kneeling here all the time, it’s not good to get used to it.
Going out like this to relax, when you come in again, some people... I'm afraid they won't be able to bear it even more.
"Quick, don't be stunned, help me."
Jia She was indeed a little unable to get up.
When Lin Zhixiao came over to help him, Jia Zhen also helped him.
They went out first, and Jia Zheng's family of three got up with great difficulty.
The knee hurts too much.
A family of three walks in a circle.
When she crossed the threshold, Mrs. Wang raised her legs so much that she was sweating.
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you come and help me?"
She scolded Xiang, the maid who had just come over here.
A group of people quickly supported the family of three.
After bathing and changing clothes, after eating and drinking, the official media invited by Marquis Xinping also happened to enter the house.
Shen Ning did not get involved in this matter.
She is taking care of her baby daughter at home.
“Mother!”
Jia Zhen also happily gave herself a holiday, “I feel like Uncle Zheng can’t hold on anymore.”
As he spoke, he was very Naturally, she picked up the little sister from her mother's hands and said, "Yueyue, do you still remember your brother? Do you miss your brother?"
"..."
Jia Yue rowed happily and kicked her little feet, as if she really remembered him.
Jia Zhen suddenly became happy, "Mom, my sister still remembers me."
"Then come over and hug her when you have time."
Jia Zhen is willing to come over. Of course Shen Ning welcomes Jia Yue in her arms, "Otherwise, she will definitely get close to Brother Rong in the future."
Jia Zhen: "..."
Thinking of that, she would go here as soon as school is over. He was speechless as his son ran away, "Is Brother Rong's classwork too light? How about I ask Jiao Da to give him half an hour more martial arts training time?"
"...half "It's too many hours." Shen Ning thought for a moment and finally felt a little conscience, "Fifteen minutes!" She looked at the elder and said, "Come out of the ancestral hall and follow."
< br>Huh?
Jia Zhen is unwilling.
Nai He had just cheated his son, "My injury..."
"You don't want to get more seriously injured in the future, do you?"
Shen Ning blocked him up with one sentence.
"...Okay then!"
It's too difficult.
My sister doesn’t even feel good when she hugs me.
If it hadn't been for this little thing, he wouldn't have had to suffer for this quarter of an hour.
"Uncle," Xing'er hurried over, "The study, the study seems to have been broken into."
What?
Both Shen Ning and Jia Zhen were surprised.
"Uncle Jiao led his men to chase her."
"...Go and have a look!"
Shen Ning took over her little daughter with a very serious look on her face.
When my father-in-law was here, his and Jia Jing’s study rooms were watched by palace guards.
But when I arrived in Jia Zhen, I received a casual position, and the study became a decoration.
Why do people still visit his study now?
Shen Ning's heartbeat accelerated slightly.
She suspected that the emperor had already taken care of the affairs of the Li family in Jiangnan.
Maybe Jia Lian has already made trouble there.
The two of them soon arrived at the outer study room, and Youshi was also arriving at this time.
Things are very messy on the desk in the study.
“Let’s see if anything is missing?”
Shen Ning asked Jia Zhen to check.
Jia Zhen: "..."
He looked around, picked up the letter paper left on the ground, patted the dust, "My son... there is nothing here."
It doesn’t matter what you throw away.
“Books are just fake.”
In front of his mother, there is nothing to hide.
It would make her worry if she really wanted to throw something away.
“There is basically no letter...”
Shen Ning: "..."
She didn't know whether to be angry or laughing.
"Okay, it's almost noon, have a good meal, your uncle will probably ask everyone to enter the ancestral hall in the afternoon."
"..."
Jia Zhen couldn't help but touch her knee.
Although he can sleep lying down at night, drink more water and go to the toilet more often during the day, his knees are still hurting a little in the past few days.
"The old lady is also strange. Why don't you just say a favor this time?"
"The old lady seems to have been persuaded by the elder sister."
Youshi said : "The eldest sister is very methodical in everything she does, and both younger siblings praise her."
No wonder my mother-in-law likes her so much.
"Yuan Chun is indeed very good."
The girls in the Jia family are all good.
Shen Ning felt that the female teacher who taught them was very powerful.
"When she gets married, I plan to invite the gentleman who teaches Spring Festival and Spring Festival in Xifu to Dongfu to teach with your sister. You also know that your sister likes to listen to people read."
Jia Zhen: "..."
Youshi: "..."
The two looked at the little one who was still paddling in her arms, and they felt a little distressed for some reason. .
Do you have to suffer the hardship of studying at such a young age?
Did mother act too hastily?
But if they object, they can't say it out anyway.
When my sister was still in her belly, my mother had someone read to her and her sister every day.
It has been more than a month since my sister was born. Maybe she is too old.
For a moment, Jia Zhen was so happy that because her grandfather and father were so powerful, he didn't need to be too smart.
Otherwise, with his mother’s drive to force people to study, he wouldn’t even know how miserable it would be.
"Tingshui Pavilion is nice over there."
Jia Zhen provided her with a place, "The open hall is big enough, and there are awnings on both sides, which is perfect for resting."
< br>"Well, I think so too."
Shen Ning liked it very much.
"Then... my daughter-in-law should have someone take care of her as soon as possible."
"Sure!"
Shen Ning nodded, "Yingchun and Tanchun are studying here. As my sister-in-law, you should take more care of them."
Separating them from Jia Baoyu is good for both sides.
Maybe without the distraction of his sisters and the blessing of the jade, Jia Baoyu could be pampered less by his mother, and he could study more and take a different path from the one in the Red Mansion.
"Don't worry, mother, I will definitely take good care of them."
Youshi likes her sister-in-law, and is willing to be more patient with the sister-in-law in the next room.
After all, she has a lot of money now.
Tianxianghe’s roast duck restaurant gave her a dividend of 300 taels last month.
How much money can the sisters-in-law spend on eating and drinking?
Even if you wear jewelry occasionally, it’s not a big deal.
Moreover, Yuanchun has taken a good lead and married well, and the sisters below, even if they are concubines, will not be too bad in the future.
"I believe you."
Shen Ning smiled, "There is a gentleman at home. She teaches Qin'er chess and other things. We can actually go over and learn."
Eh. ?
Youshi's eyes suddenly lit up.
"The worst that can happen is that I will have an extra job to repair."
"Yes!" Mrs. You happily saluted, "Thank you, mother, for your advice."
Family affairs, She managed it very well.
So she has plenty of time.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law here have never thought about whether the Xifu people agree or disagree, and the gentleman disagrees.
At this time, as soon as the matchmaker was sent away, Jia She stood up and raised his hands to Jia Mu, "Mother, everything in the family is busy, and the sons will go to the ancestral hall first."
He glanced at Jia Zheng and took him with him naturally.
Jia Zheng’s calves were shaking.
It took a lot of effort for him to calm down!
"Mother..."
Jia Zheng's eyes were covered with water, "My son and the Wang family have decided to move from Rongxi Hall. Look, where will we move?" Is it suitable?”
The Dongkuaoyuan where my eldest brother lives now is actually quite big.
Jia Zheng thinks it will be good if he moves there.
"Second brother, what do you think of Lixiangyuan?"
Jia She doesn't want to give him the good place he worked so hard to build.
It belonged to his son Jia Lian.
He said before Jia Mu expressed his position: "Open a door there, and it will open to the back street. It will be convenient to enter and exit in the future."
Jia Mu: "..."
Jia Zheng: " ..."
Wang: "..."
The three of them are all thinking about Lixiangyuan.
That was the place where the old man retired. Although it was close to a back street, it was quiet amid the hustle and bustle.
But and Dongkuoyuan...
Jia Mu is actually willing for Jia Zheng to move to Dongkuoyuan.
Because of Jia She, there have been several major renovations. Except for the location, everything else is good.
“Lixiangyuan is not bad.”
Jia's mother looked at her eldest son and finally said: "Then pack up, choose a good day, and move there!"
"...Yes!"
Jia Zheng cried.
Wang’s eye circles were also red.
She didn’t expect it to be Lixiangyuan.
I thought the lowest one would be Dongkuayuan. .
