Xian Sun of the Ning Mansion of the Red Chamber

Chapter 41
On Ningrong Street, Jia Ying and Jia Zhen walked side by side towards the East Mansion. On the way, Jia Ying looked at Jia Zhen who was full of disappointment and asked, "Brother Zhen seems unhappy?"

Jia Zhen smiled sheepishly and said, "What's the matter, I'm too happy to see Ying Er that you're fine!"

Jia Ying smiled meaningfully and said, "Really?"

"Of course! Ying'er, don't you believe me?" Jia Zhen pretended to be dissatisfied.

Jia Ying didn't speak, just walked into the mansion, entered the gate, and met Youshi and the others who came back from Ning Rong's alley, Qi Sixian was among them.

Jia Ying said hello to You Shi, but You Shi still looked away, the embarrassment between the two of them has not passed yet.

Qin Keqing buried her head deeply when she saw Jia Zhen and Jia Ying at the same time, and You Shi was also upset, but she didn't realize that her daughter-in-law didn't greet her father-in-law today.

When the whole family got together, they were either embarrassed or had ghosts in their hearts. They didn't have much interest, and they went back to their own yards without saying a few gossips.

Jia Ying said to Qi Sixian beside him: "You don't have to worry about the matter of Rongqingtang, the old man's thoughts are always biased, you don't see the whole family, you can't compare to a precious jade in the old lady's heart."

Although Qi Sixian didn't say anything, but Jia Ying saw how she walked in silence and walked with her head down, so she understood how she couldn't understand what Jiamu's words "some and not" meant.

"I'm the one who caused trouble for the young master!" Qi Sixian said with a blessing.

Jia Ying shook her head, said no more, and moved out after a few days.

When I went back to the small courtyard and saw Xi'er, she was really bruised and purple, but she didn't hurt her vitals after all.

"How about my cousin?" Jia Ying asked with concern.

Xi'er replied: "Young master, don't worry, those people probably took the order to stop us, but they didn't do anything cruel. The second master of the Mu family is similar to the young one, and those people are not easy to deal with!"

Jia Ying nodded. The water in the capital is indeed very deep. Whenever he plays casually, there are so many good players. It seems that he will have to fight in the future.
"Do you still have energy? Go out with Grandpa!"

Xi'er patted her chest and said, "Where is the master going, the little one will lead the horse for the master!"

Jia Ying patted Xi'er on the shoulder lightly and said, "Go to Fu's residence!"

"Jia Ying, a junior student, pay homage to Duke Donglai!"

Fu's mansion is still the original main hall living room, Fu Donglai is still standing in front of the desk with his back to Jia Ying.After hearing the voice, he didn't look back, but said calmly, "Well, sit down!"

Jia Ying finally got the treatment a guest should have at Fu Donglai's house.

Only then did Fu Donglai turn around and walk over, with what seemed to be a letter in his hand, with a gloomy expression on his face.

Jia Ying's heart skipped a beat, and she thought, "Could it be that something serious happened in Huguang? It's also related to Master Feng?"

Besides Feng Hengshi, Jia Ying couldn't figure out why Fu Donglai called him here on purpose.

When Fu Donglai walked to the main seat and sat down, he slapped his hand on the table suddenly, which startled Jia Ying.

Immediately afterwards, I only heard Fu Donglai say in a tone of teaching the younger generation: "You are dignified and self-absorbed, and you don't talk about studying hard in Beijing, but hang out with those cronies all day long. That's what Feng Hengshi taught you. ?"

Seeing this situation, Jia Ying could only stand up straight, put on a posture that a junior should have, and accept criticism humbly.

He thought to himself: "Master Feng is just my seat teacher, not a professional teacher."

But you still have to have the attitude you should have, Jia Ying respectfully said: "Mr. Donglai is right to teach you a lesson. It is the students who failed Master Feng's high expectations!"

Seeing Jia Ying admitting his mistake, Fu Donglai's expression became better, and he said: "If it wasn't for your teacher's instructions in the letter, I wouldn't bother to pay you any attention, but right now your teacher is talking about life and death in Huguang, but you are here The capital is running around on horseback, but there is still a little bit of self-motivation!"

As expected, Jia Ying asked hurriedly, "Mr. Donglai, is there any news from my master? Over there in Huguang?"

For a while, Jia Ying didn't know how to continue asking, there were some things that he was not qualified to know as a mere white coat.

Only then did Fu Donglai pass the envelope in his hand to Jia Ying and said, "Your teacher is afraid that you will be worried, so he wrote you a special letter!"

Jia Ying took it, but didn't rush to take it apart, but waited for Fu Donglai to finish speaking.

"As for Huguang."

Fu Donglai sighed helplessly, and said: "Your teacher has been in the Inspectorate all his life, and he has developed a pair of piercing eyes. As long as you let him investigate the matter of Huguang, there is absolutely nothing unclear about it. It's just that finding out the truth and How to deal with it is two different things!"

Jia Ying was puzzled and said, "Shouldn't it be judged according to the law after finding out the truth? Why did Duke Donglai say this?"

Fu Donglai shook his head and said: "If you become an official in the court in the future, you must remember one thing. Those who do great things must seek the overall situation. Don't learn from your teacher. You can't even tolerate a fly in your eyes!"

Jia Ying's face was even more puzzled, how could this be related to Master Feng again.

Fu Donglai saw his doubts, hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Your teacher is in Huguang, following the death of Bao Siqiu, he found out that he was in collusion with Huguang officials, using the excuse of paying tribute to amass money, and lied about the white lotus banditry in Huguang. Seriously, secretly embezzling the military pay allocated to Huguang by the court to fight the rebellion, colluding with salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, exchanging embezzled military rations for private salt, and then selling it under the name of official salt in Huguang, the people of Huguang are living in dire straits!"

Jia Ying's heart has already set off a turbulent sea. Is this what he knows?When did it suck?
Listen, borrowing tribute to collect money, falsely reporting military information, embezzling military pay and rations, officials and businessmen colluding to use private salt as official salt!
Just one of the crimes here is enough to confiscate the family and send him into exile. Is Bao Sizhen tired of his life?

Oh, he's dead.

Thinking of this, Jia Ying couldn't help asking: "But who was found?"

Fu Donglai snorted coldly and said with a smile: "Which one of these piles can get away from those officials in Huguang, do you still need to investigate? Fei Lian, Zhong Shanlang, the dead Bao Siyu, including other officials of Huguang, who can do it?" Can escape the relationship! It's just that there is no direct evidence of the key person!"

Jia Ying understood why Fu Donglai was frowning. There were probably no less than a thousand officials in Huguang, big and small. Could it be that they all had to be killed?
Thinking of this, Jia Ying asked again: "Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"

Fu Donglai paused and said: "This morning, His Majesty reprimanded Li and Xu for dereliction of duty, and asked the cabinet to draft a vote to dismiss Huguang Governor Fei Lian and Huguang Inspector Zhong Shanlang pending trial!"

Jia Ying waited for a long time but didn't see any more, and said in amazement, "That's all?"

Fu Donglai nodded tiredly and said, "That's all!"

Jia Ying couldn't help saying in her heart: "Jade, are you a waste? Such a good opportunity, in exchange for a few reprimands from you to the two cabinet ministers? What you want to rectify is the administration of officials. What's the use."

Fu Donglai saw Jia Ying's thoughts and said, "Don't blame His Majesty, but blame your teacher. If he can wait patiently and dig deeper, he'd better come up with some hard evidence. Come on, there will be no passive situation like today!"

Jia Ying was puzzled, "Is this what my teacher meant?"

"Of course not. He just submitted a note to ask His Majesty to give him the discretion to investigate and deal with the second-rank officials. Naturally, the situation in Huguang was mentioned in the note. Your Majesty was extremely angry last night, which is why today's matter happened!"

Fu Donglai continued: "Feng Hengshi just can't rub the sand in his eyes, and he is eager to investigate Fei Lian and Zhong Shanlang, so he doesn't know how to do everything and submit it to His Majesty!"

However, Jia Ying wanted to defend her teacher: "Xu Shi's teacher encountered a bottleneck in Huguang and couldn't continue, so he wanted to attack Fei Lian and Zhong Shanlang!"

Fu Donglai didn't refute it after hearing it, he also had this thought in his heart, otherwise, how could Feng Hengshi not have expected His Majesty's reaction after reading the memorial?
