Uncle Lai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 451 Due Diligence
The next day, early in the morning.

Under Ying'er's service, Lai Shangrong got dressed neatly, turned around and lay on the edge of the bed, kissed the slightly tired Xue Baochai on the cheek.

"Don't worry about your brother's affairs! However, things are not peaceful in Beijing these days, and the roads are slippery due to snow, so I may not be able to come here often. If there is something urgent, please ask Ying'er to pass the message!"

Xue Baochai did not doubt that he had it, and said happily: "The uncle's business is important. I am causing trouble to the uncle with my family affairs!"

"Huh?" Lai Shangrong pretended to be angry: "What difference do we have between us? I will go to Jinyiwei again today to see what Wenlong needs. If there is nothing serious, I will arrange for you and your aunt to go there to visit one day!"

I just said that I may not have time to come now, so of course I have to leave a tail.

There is no need to say more about going home to eat and going to court.

After getting off, he made a special trip to Jinyiwei. Although Xue Pan didn't suffer much, he was very depressed. When he saw him, he seemed to have seen a savior and shouted to save him.

He told him sternly not to cause trouble, and asked if he needed anything, and then left Jin Yiwei.

Returning to the Yamen, I ordered Jinchang, Jinlong and several security personnel who were loyal, reliable and highly aware.

"From now on, you will be the accompanying guards of the official!"

As soon as Prince Jing could be plotted against, he was also worried that someone would repeat the same tricks on him.

Second, these people are by my side, which is convenient for raising their ideological awareness, and then released later, which is more conducive to controlling the situation.

Of course, the reason why he chose today was because he wanted to show off his power in front of Jia Zheng.

Rabbits will bite when they are anxious. He is not worried that Jia Zheng will hurt him, but Jia Zheng is now a walking biochemical weapon. If he is not careful and the pustules on his body are contaminated, it will be enough to make him sick. .

When I got home, I had lunch, picked up Mrs. Wang and Aunt Zhao, and rushed to Huazhi Lane, Jia Zheng's residence.

Although Jia Zheng's courtyard is not big, it has three entrances.

Instruct the accompanying guards to stand guard outside the backyard door and wait for summons at any time.

The man with the golden sword rushed into the backyard and entered the main hall with Jia Zheng's wives and concubines.

He just moved his buttocks to the main seat in the main hall, hesitated for a moment, and with a look of disgust on his face, left the main room in three steps and two steps at a time, came to the courtyard and stood there, followed by Mrs. Wang and Aunt Zhao, one on the left and one on the right. , standing firmly behind him.

I saw Lai Shangrong shouting into the room: "Is this how the second master knows people and treats guests?"

He disliked Jia Zheng, and Jia Zheng was even more afraid of meeting people.

He shrank his head and said, "You... what are you doing here?"

Seeing Jia Zheng shrinking back, Lai Shangrong became more and more bossy, and shouted at the servants in the courtyard: "Get out of here, everyone who has nothing to do with it!"

Then he shouted to the outside: "Jinchang, Jinlong, stay outside and keep an eye on everyone!"

"Yes! Sir!" The people outside agreed uniformly.

Seeing his servant being shouted out by Lai Shangrong, Jia Zheng was terrified.

Pretending to be calm, he said: "You...do you still want to bully others and rob people's daughters?" Just yesterday I sent Mrs. Wang away, and today Lai Shangrong came to visit. You don't need to think about it to know why.

"Haha! Using power to bully others? I am just the slave Yangzi that the second master calls me. What kind of power are you fighting against? Could it be that you are taking advantage of the power of your Rongguo Mansion?"

Lai Shangrong paused, then continued: "As for robbing civilian girls, there is no mention of it. The third girl's aunt and biological mother have already agreed, so how can we talk about robbing her?"

After saying that, he took a step back, held Mrs. Wang and Aunt Zhao in his arms, sniffed from side to side, and said jokingly: "Second Madam, Aunt Zhao, am I right?"

Mrs. Wang was still a little uncomfortable, but Aunt Zhao hated Jia Zheng's ruthlessness, so she twisted her water snake's waist and rubbed against Lai Shangrong without ordering her.

Jia Zheng, who was lying on the door frame and peeking out, saw this scene and could no longer hold back and rushed out of the door.

But Lai Shangrong's solid body suddenly stopped two feet away. He was trembling and pointed at the three of them and said, "You... how dare you..."

When Lai Shangrong saw Jia Zheng rushing out, he loosened his hands and tightened them inside. He smiled and said, "What dare you do? The second master said so!"

Jia Zheng couldn't say what he said about cuckolding himself, so he deceived himself and said: "You... aren't you afraid that I will expose your scandal?"

Seeing Jia Zheng's stern expression but his internal embarrassment, Lai Shangrong felt reassured and said jokingly: "Oh? If you plan to announce it to the world, then I will let you do it! Who outside doesn't know about my preferences? Do you want me to take my second wife and aunt with me? , walk around the capital to make you blush again?"

Everything has two sides. Lai Shangrong has long been famous, but now he can use it to scare Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng also didn't expect that Lai Shangrong didn't care at all, but thinking about the rumors outside, he felt that he would be the only one to be embarrassed.

He changed his strategy and said: "Aren't you afraid that I will sue the government? No! I will sue the government right now!"

"Haha!" Lai Shangrong smiled contemptuously and said without any dissatisfaction: "Are you going to sue the official? Are you going to sue the imperial court? Don't you still know how much you weigh?"

After a pause, he said with a stern voice: "As a relative, you questioned the emperor's struggle for profits with the people; as an official of the court, you were not even aware of the corruption as big as the Yingshisi; as a father, you did nothing but help the palace. What else have you done to smear your face? As a husband, you cannot protect your wife and concubines from the wind and rain. Do you know how soft the Wang family and Zhao family can be in front of me, a slave, Yangzi, in order to endure hardships?"

With that said, Lai Shangrong patted the two of them on the buttocks. Aunt Zhao immediately understood and bent down with her back to Lai Shangrong, as if begging for mercy.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang could only imitate others.

"You...you..." Jia Zheng almost couldn't breathe and collapsed to the ground.

Lai Shangrong chased after the victory and said: "If you want to sue the imperial court, the uncle will definitely send you off with drums and gongs, but I don't know, the emperor will not see you with your current appearance! Besides, you have to catch a traitor, and you have to go out of this door." Uncle, I will not admit that my wife and aunt are innocent, but in the future, when talking about my affairs in the capital, there must be two more things for after-dinner conversation!"

"Don't... stop talking! Isn't it enough that I agreed?"

Lai Shangrong also accepted the situation and warned: "I guess you don't know what the situation of your Jia family is now. If it weren't for their sake, I would have left you to fend for yourself!
You may have heard about the current situation of the Prince of Beijing, the Duke of Zhenguo, and the Shi family. If it weren't for the protection of the uncle, do you think you can still be here making slaves and maids?

If you just stay here peacefully, I won't mind letting you die in peace. If you still try to show off to me, don't blame me for being unkind! "

After saying that, she slapped Mrs. Wang and Aunt Zhao each on their swaying buttocks, and said with a smile: "Second Master, I will rest here for the rest of my life, so I will give you to you for free. Please rest assured, Second Master, you will not be able to fulfill your duties." , Uncle, I am more tired, so I will go back and do it for you!"
