Red Mansion Royal Cat

Chapter 75
The wind in the Forbidden City has never stopped. Liu Heng, who had endured it for several years, ended the court meeting as a matter of routine. He had just returned to the Palace of Qinzheng when he received the secret box from Jiangnan.

Cao Jiugong, the commander of the Dragon Guards, presented the secret box, and said with a puzzled face, "Your Majesty, it is strange to say that this secret box was secretly sent to the capital by Habayashiro, and directly sent to the minister's home..."

"Ok?"

Liu Heng also looked at the secret box on the table in surprise. The golden lacquer-sealed secret box will not be imitated. It was obviously given to him by Jia She himself before he left Beijing.

Three Thousand Yu Linlang is the strongest and most trusted confidant of the Supreme Emperor. So far, no one of the Emperor's sons dares to reach out to him.

There is no doubt about Habayashiro's loyalty to the Supreme Emperor. What made Habayashiro avoid the Dragon Head Palace, even dared not enter the imperial palace, and ran directly to Cao Jiugong's mansion to deliver the secret box?
The seal was intact, and when Liu Heng opened it, there were three secret letters and a stack of thick memorials inside.

The handwriting of the three secret letters was different, the one on the top was Jia She, the first-class majestic general of the Rongguo Mansion, and the bottom one was Lin Ruhai, the inspector of salt in Yangzhou, and Jia Cong, the little fat man.

"strangeness……"

Liu Heng first opened Jia Amnesty's secret letter, and after reading a few lines, his face changed drastically. His originally calm face was full of fear and anger.

"How courageous! Old Fourteen, this bastard deserves to be shredded into pieces!"

"My lord..."

"His Majesty……"

There are no secrets in the palace, even if the Palace of Qinzheng is the base of Emperor Liu Heng.

But walls have ears, and no one can guarantee that there are no other people's eyeliner around Qinzheng Hall.

Liu Heng ignored Xia Shouzhong and Cao Jiugong's dissuasion, quickly read Jia Amnesty's secret letter, and then handed it to Cao Jiugong and Xia Shouzhong. While opening Lin Ruhai's letter, he said: "Look, the old fourteenth is a beast! What did you do? No wonder Habayashiro didn't dare to send a letter to his father, dare to send it?"

hiss!
Is Liu Wei planning to piss off his father so that he can inherit the Dragon Head Palace and Huangji Palace?

Thanks to Habayashi Lang Qianhu who went south this time, he still has a brain, but if this news spreads to Longshou Palace like this, the capital city and even the whole world will be bloody again.

Cao Jiugong's mind turned very fast, and after hastily reading the secret letter, he bowed and said, "I think this matter can be hidden for a while, but it can't be hidden forever. Your majesty, the saint, should make preparations early."

Liu Heng, who was watching Lin Ruhai's secret performance, raised his eyes and glanced at Cao Jiugong, and asked quietly, "Does Cao Qing have an idea? I really don't want to clean up this mess for the old fourteen. What's the difference between this and swallowing a fly alive?" "

"As Jia Amnesty said, since the Zhen family supports King Zhongxin behind the scenes, it might as well push all these matters to the Zhen family. A sage has sharp eyesight, how could he fail to see Princess Zhen, King Zhongxin, and the Zhen family? The Zhen family's rebellion is no different from the Zhongxin King's rebellion, so Zhen Yingjia can't just want to be the emperor himself!"

Cao Jiugong talked eloquently, and finally added: "The only difference between Zhen Jiafan and Zhongxin Wangfan in the hearts of saints is coercion and initiative. What happened to the old prince Yizhong back then is a thorn in the saint's heart, whoever touches it will die , Mrs. Fengsheng is already an old man in her eighties, and the Zhen family's life-saving talisman is almost gone!"

Liu Heng put down the melody in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Cao Jiugong was right, it didn't matter whether Liu Wei was alive or dead, it was better to take this opportunity to gradually disintegrate those forces standing behind Liu Wei.

For example, the Zhen family in Jinling took this opportunity to speak to their father first, and first take back the power in Jiangnan.

After the death of Mrs. Fengsheng, the Zhen family will not let themselves decide?

And this time, Lin Ruhai actually asked him to marry Jia Cong, the only daughter of the Lin family.

Everyone in the capital knew that Jia Cong, the little fat man, belonged to him. Isn't Lin Ruhai showing his loyalty to him by doing this?
The most important salt tax in the south of the Yangtze River, Yangzhou Tourist Salt Censor's Mansion, has since become the backbone of the imperial party. Liu Heng feels happy thinking about the salt tax of 300 million taels sent to the capital every year.

"Big Companion, you go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and ask your mother to marry the daughter of Jia Cong and Lin Ruhai..."

"what?"

Xia Shouzhong and Cao Jiugong, who were still trapped in Liu Wei's rebellion, were stunned by Liu Heng's sudden order.

What's the matter with this marriage?

Liu Heng smiled slightly: "Since the old fourteenth has already started recruiting troops, I can't lag behind, can I? Let's start with the twelve guards of the Beijing camp. Controlling the Rongguo Mansion is the first step!"

After finishing speaking, he took the Zhen family's criminal evidence prepared by Jia She and Lin Ruhai in the box, and said to Cao Jiugong, "Cao Qing, follow me to the Dragon Head Palace, Father should also see what the Zhen family is like." Already!"

……

Ever since Jia Amnesty brought Daiyu south, Baoyu had been sluggish for several days and then returned to her original state, playing around a yard of pretty maids every day.

That day he was playing peek-a-boo with more than a dozen maidservants in the yard, the scent of powder filled the garden, the laughter and the shouts of Baoyu's sister and sister drifted to Wang Xifeng's place with the autumn wind.

Thinking that her men would be in Jiangnan, Wang Xifeng, who was already in a state of irritability, slammed the table and shouted coquettishly, "Ping'er, where did you die? Go ahead and ask if there is any Jiangnan." letter!"

Ping'er raised the curtain and walked in, comforting her softly: "Grandma, this servant has already asked someone to ask, and according to the time, this letter will come in a few days. The second master follows the master, and he doesn't dare to mess around. Don't worry. That's right."

"What else is he afraid of?"

Wang Xifeng opened her phoenix eyes slightly, and wanted to scold someone irritably. Thinking of her husband's tenderness and sweetness before he left Beijing, she became sluggish again, and sighed: "Listen, listen, our men have gone thousands of miles away to work hard for the family. They Fortunately, Gao Le still doesn't know that the world is difficult. The father-in-law and the second master have been to the south of the Yangtze River for so many days, and they didn't even say a word of greeting..."

Clang!

The servant girl Xiaohong suddenly rushed in in a panic. Ping'er saw her grandmother's brows were tightly frowned, and was about to scold her when she saw Xiaohong was out of breath and reported, "Second Grandma, something serious happened! My father Let the slaves come to report, the palace has come to order, to marry the third master and Miss Lin!"

It is indeed a big event, which is as good as the sky falling to the Rongguo Mansion!
Wang Xifeng didn't even have time to get angry, so she asked Ping'er to dress her up.

"It's over, it's over, the old lady and Baoyu are going to have a falling out? The men at home are not here, what should I do?"

Ping'er skillfully dressed Wang Xifeng, and replied softly: "Grandma, do you still remember what the third master said in Rongxi Hall after the third master received the holy favor? Maybe the master asked the palace for the marriage proposal. Since The master dares to ask for such a decree, what else should grandma worry about? The master will take the lead in everything? You are just the granddaughter-in-law, don’t you still have a wife and a second wife?”

Wang Xifeng's eyes lit up: "That's right, the wife is the concubine's mother. Isn't it the wife who should be in charge of the marriage given to Brother Cong in the palace?"
