Turning the tide in the Red Chamber

Chapter 26 [026] Jia Zhen, dare to deny it?

Everyone didn't notice the strange look in Jia She's eyes, they were still flattering as much as they could.

Jia Amnesty was blown to the sky by everyone, and he couldn't find the steps to get off.

What else can I do?I had to accept it by default.

As long as you smile and don't speak, it's not a lie.

Jia Chen thought it was funny when he saw the crowd buzzing around Jia She like flies biting rotten eggs.

He didn't care about Jia She's robbing him of credit at all. He was going to take the imperial examination in the future, be an official butcher, and be appointed as a marquis and prime minister. How could he care about such a trivial matter?

Suddenly, a young man ran over and saluted Jia She:
"Master, the team of Uncle Zhen and Uncle Rong are back, the old lady told you to go to the front yard quickly."

Jia Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong had already brought Qin Keqing back, it was just in time to reveal Jia Zhen's old face in front of so many people.

Jia Amnesty bowed his hands towards the crowd and said with a smile:

"Dear distinguished guests, please follow me to the front yard to attend the evening ceremony."

Everyone looked forward to him, followed behind him, and walked towards the front yard in a mighty manner.

Jia Chen dragged the heavily tied masked man with a rope, and followed closely behind.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Jia She, and no one noticed that there was a young man behind him, dragging a masked man like a tracker tugging a boat.

The masked man's belly rubbed against the ground, the skin was torn apart, and the pain was burning, but he bit his lip and dared not make a sound.

Good guy!Among the group of people in front were those carrying kitchen knives, some carrying poles, and some carrying three-foot-long rolling pins, and one of them was holding a stone-made garlic mortar.

The weapons in his hands are all kinds of strange and varied.

If he greeted himself, with these low-quality weapons, he would not be able to kill himself with one or two blows. He could only be brutally beaten to death with sticks and knives.

The masked man doesn't want to suffer, and now he just hopes that someone can let him go, or give him a good time.

After less than half a cup of tea, the crowd left Huifang Garden and rushed to the front yard.

At this time, in the five main halls and the courtyard in front of the three buildings, the drums and gongs were blaring and joyful.

The sound of suona resounded through the sky, and the sound of cymbals shook the whole field.

Seeing Jia Amnesty, Jia Zhen hurriedly greeted him and greeted him.

Jia Rong, who was behind, also greeted Jia Amnesty.

Beside Jia Rong stood a bride in a red hijab and a phoenix crown and Xiapei.

Jia Chen's eyes lit up, this bride should be Qin Keqing.

Although she couldn't see her face, just looking at her graceful figure was already pleasing to the eye, and my heart was shaking.

Jia Chen stood at the back of the crowd, and Jia Zhen didn't see him for a while.

At this time, Jiamu and the masters of Rongfu also came.

When the guests saw this Yipin old Gaoming, they all saluted and greeted him.

Jia Mu is currently the oldest senior in the Ningrong Second Mansion, most of the guests came here to curry favor with Jia's family, so naturally they must respect Jia Mu and please them in every possible way.

Mother Jia greeted everyone with a kind smile, and then, supported by the big maid Yuanyang and Wang Xifeng, walked to the central seat in the hall and sat down.

Jia Zhen and Jia Rong also smiled and greeted everyone to sit down.

Lin Daiyu sat on Jiamu's right hand side, and the three sisters Jia Yingchun, Jia Tanchun and Jia Xichun sat on Jiamu's left hand side in turn.

Jia Baoyu lay in Jia Mu's arms like a candy twisted buttocks, acting like a baby, but his eyes darted to Lin Daiyu.

Sensing Jia Baoyu's unscrupulous gaze, Lin Daiyu felt disgusted, and subconsciously moved to the side, wanting to stay away from this living dragon who has a day and night.

Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng, Jia Lian and other male masters sat at the top.

Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan and other female relatives sat at the bottom.

After all the guests were seated, Jia Zhen finally saw Jia Chen.

Jia Zhen's pupils shrank, thinking that she had seen a ghost.

Why is Jia Chen still alive?
Could it be that those assassins haven't done anything yet?
When Jia Zhen's eyes fell on the masked man dragged by Jia Chen on the ground, she was shocked, as if struck by lightning.

How can this be?

Jia Chen actually caught one of the assassins!
What about the other seven assassins?

In an instant, Jia Zhen had a very bad premonition in her heart.

Could it be that they were all killed by Jia Chen?

He is only a thirteen-year-old boy, how is this possible?

When Jia Zhen saw that the long sword in Jia Chen's hand was stained with scarlet blood, she was horrified.

This kid really killed someone just now!

He is only thirteen years old, how could he have such a strong martial arts?
Seeing Jia Zhen froze in place in shock and fear, Jia Chen said coldly:
"Jia Zhen, you hired eight assassins to kill me, what should you do if you hire murderers to kill me?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

The patriarch of the dignified Jia family hired murderers to kill people. This is really appalling!
Sensing the suspicious and probing gazes of the guests, Jia Zhen twitched her lips and denied it flatly:
"Little Huangkou, you are talking nonsense! I am the head of the Jia family, how could I do such an outrageous thing?"

Jia Chen sneered and said:
"Whether you have lost your conscience, you know in your own heart, but at least I can be sure that you have lost your mind."

As he spoke, he put the long sword on the side of the masked man's neck, and said sharply:

"Say! Who ordered you to kill me?"

The masked man shivered in fright, and stammered, "Yes, it's Jia Zhen."

As soon as the voice fell, there was an uproar around.

Although Jia's mother is the most senior elder in the Jia family, she is only the head of the Rong Mansion, and it is not good for her to meddle in the affairs of the Ning Mansion, so she can only stand on the sidelines.

Lin Daiyu's heart was already in her throat, she didn't expect that Jia Zhen wanted to kill Big Brother Chen.

After getting along during this period, Lin Daiyu's feelings for Jia Chen became more and more profound, and she did not want Jia Chen to suffer any harm.

Tightening the brocade handkerchief in her hand, Lin Daiyu stared at Jia Chen closely with a pair of affectionate eyes, fearing that he might make any mistakes.

Jia Chen stared firmly into Jia Zhen's eyes, and said every word:
"Jia Zhen, here is the witness, how dare you deny it?"

There was a flash of panic in Jia Zhen's eyes, he took a deep breath, snorted coldly and said:

"I don't know this person at all. How could I instruct him to commit murder? Jia Chen, these are all his one-sided words. Don't mistrust the villain and hurt the peace between us brothers."

Jia Chen said coldly:
"It seems that you are a dead duck with a stubborn mouth, so I will tell everyone why you want to kill me."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were focused on Jia Chen, waiting for him to reveal the motive for the murder.

Jia Chen looked around at the crowd, smiled unhurriedly and said:

"A while ago, I wrote a book called "Disciple Rules", and agreed with the Ningrong Second House to share the profit after the engraving and sale. I will share [-]%, and the Ningrong Second House will each share [-]%. Jia Zhen hates it. I got a lot of money, so I wanted to hire a murderer to kill me and embezzle my [-]%."

As soon as this remark came out, the audience erupted into an uproar.

The guests whispered to each other, talked a lot, pointed at Jia Zhen, and looked at him with complex emotions such as ridicule, contempt and jealousy.

Jia Zhen's face became more and more ugly, and she became angry from embarrassment:

"A stinky brat with no hair yet, how dare he insult my innocence! Someone, throw him out!"
