Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 136
"My dear brother, you don't pay attention to these small things. The thing is like this. Some time ago, the Supreme Emperor issued an order to strictly investigate officials at all levels and the powerful children of Mianhuasuliu. Your two nephews just suffered an unreasonable disaster."

Jia Dairu, who was sitting on the upper hand, was so angry that his beard stood up when he heard about this, but after all, Jia Zhen was the clan leader, so he couldn't get angry in front of her.

However, Jia Dairu didn't want to hear these dirty things, so he stood up and casually signaled to Jia Zhen before leaving.

Jia Dairu left Jia Zhen and felt lighter. He sat down on the chair next to Jia Rui and said:
"Ruidi, you are still an official of the imperial court, but the Shuntian Mansion dares not to buy the favor of our Jia family. Is he just too ambitious or a leopard? If you don't give him some clues, he won't even know about Prince Ma's three eyes. "

Jia Rui glanced at Jia Zhen with disdain. Does this Shuntian Prefecture Yin think he can win if he wants to?Those who can hold this position are the confidants of the Supreme Emperor.

Even if Jia Rui wanted to win the Shuntian Prefecture, he would have to use all his abilities and even slander him in front of the Supreme Emperor.

"Let's not talk about Shuntian Prefecture Yin. Let's talk about the two nephews. What is Brother Zhen going to do?"

"Then what else can be done? Brother Xian can just step in and bail the person out."

Jia Rui nodded and said: "This is not difficult. I will send someone to send a message to see if Shuntian Prefecture Yin will agree or not."

Jia Zhen was extremely grateful to Jia Rui. He believed that as long as Jia Rui's post was handed over, Shuntian Prefecture Yin would not dare to refute it no matter what.

"Prosperity."

The boy Wangcai immediately walked in carefully from outside the door and gave Jia Rui a thousand dollars.

"Uncle, what's the matter with calling me little?"

"Take my post and go to Shuntian Mansion to bail out Jia Rong and Jia Qiang."

While speaking, Jia Rui winked at Wangcai.

Wangcai was able to serve as Jia Rui's personal servant, so he was naturally very perceptive and immediately understood what his master meant.

"Let's do it, little one."

After saying this, Wangcai withdrew.

Then Jia Rui turned his head and said to Jia Zhen: "Brother Zhen, wait a moment, there will be news soon."

Next, the two of them had tea and chatted. Finally, Jia Rui saw that it was getting late and invited Jia Zhen to have lunch at his house.

It wasn't until after lunch that Wangcai came back in a hurry.

As soon as he entered the door, Wangcai blushed and said: "Uncle, the governor of Shuntian refused to let him go. I took your post, but the old official didn't even look at it. In the end, he almost knelt down to him, but this The old official still didn't buy your favor and blocked me back."

Jia Rui pretended to be surprised, and then said, "Didn't you tell him my name?"

"I talked about it, but it doesn't work!"

Jia Rui's face was a little gloomy, then he stood up and said to Jia Zhen:
"Brother Zhen, please wait at home. I will go to Shuntian Mansion in person. I want to see if he still wants to be an official."

After Jia Rui finished speaking, he cupped his hands and walked out.

What can Jia Zhen do?All we can do is wait here.

Jia Rui and Wangcai went out with smiles on their faces, and then slowed down and came to the outer courtyard. After that, Jia Rui made a sedan chair, Wangcai led the way, and Shi Shiran arrived at Shuntian Mansion.

Shuntian Fuyin knew Jia Rui, and when he heard that he was coming, he quickly greeted him personally.

The two of them exchanged a few words outside Humen, and then Shuntian Fuyi invited Jia Rui to take a seat inside.

The last two people sat down in the flower hall, and the maids served fragrant tea.

Shen Wence, Yin of Shuntian Prefecture, held the fragrant tea and said with a smile: "This tea is a tribute tea given by the Supreme Emperor a few days ago when I met with him. Lord Jia, let's have a taste."

Jia Rui took a sip from the Xi tea cup and felt that it was just the same thing. Moreover, he often drank this kind of tea in Longshou Palace, so he didn't find it strange.

But the face of the other party still has to be given, so I gave a few compliments against my will.

After finishing the gossip, Jia Rui started to get down to business.

"How are those two doing now?"

"According to Mr. Jia's explanation, let them suffer a bit."

Jia Rui smiled slightly, and then said: "Thank you, Master Shen."

"How can I say thank you! Master Jia wants to rectify the atmosphere in the clan, so of course I will try my best to help him."

It turns out that Jia Rui and Shen Wence had been linked for a long time. The reason why Jia Rong and Jia Qiang suffered so much this time was because of Jia Rui's behind-the-scenes manipulation.

"Is Mr. Jia going to take someone back today?"

Shen Wence believed that these two guys had suffered enough and should be released.

"Don't worry, I'll take one back today, and keep the other one in your prison. Give him more weight. As long as he doesn't die, you can do whatever you want."

Shuntian Prefecture Yin Shen Wence's expression changed a little, "Master Jia, if we are locked up for a longer time, something big will happen!"

"Teach them a lesson so that they will remember it clearly for the rest of their lives." When Jia Rui said this, his eyes began to glow with coldness.

Shuntian Mansion Shen Wence was also startled by Jia Rui's eyes.

He now understands that Mr. Jia may not be trying to straighten out the atmosphere in Zui Nei, but is seeking to avenge his personal vengeance. It seems that there must be something fishy in this big family that he doesn't know about.

But he wouldn't disobey Jia Rui for this kind of thing, he would just do it as a favor. Besides, what does it have to do with him whether something happens to those two people?It's not my turn to worry.

"Since this is the case, then everything must be obeyed by Mr. Jia." "Thank you, Mr. Shen. Mr. Shen and I will have to put on another play later."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Then the two people got up and came to the cell of Shuntian Mansion.

As soon as he entered the cell, Jia Rui smelled a foul smell.

However, Jia Rui also rolled over in the blood sea of ​​Gansu corpse mountain, so he just frowned and pretended that he couldn't smell it anymore.

Under the leadership of the old man, Jia Rui and Shen Wence came to the cells of Guan Jiarong and Jia Qiang.

Now the two of them were already in disgrace, even their clothes had been stripped off, and there were bruises and bruises on their faces. It looked like they had suffered a lot.

Jia Rong kept staring at the cell door, hoping that her family would rescue them.

After seeing Jia Rui coming in person, Jia Rong ran out of the arms of a strong man with a "ouch" as if he had seen a savior.

Then he came to the wooden fence with lightning speed, hugged the wooden fence tightly and shouted to Jia Rui:

"Uncle Rui, help me!"

Jia Qiang on the other side also saw Jia Rui and struggled desperately, but this time the other strong man was prepared, and his small body couldn't break free at all.

Although he couldn't break free, he still shouted, "Uncle Rui, help me out, I can't bear it anymore."

Jia Rui felt happy when he saw the miserable situation of the two people, but he still complained about Shen Wence, Yin of Shuntian Mansion next to him.

"What's going on? They are our children after all, how can they be so degrading to gentle people?"

"Haha, Mr. Shen, forgive me. You know that there are many things going on during this period and the cells are full, so we have no choice but to lock them here."

"Hmph, I don't listen to your nonsense, let them go quickly, otherwise I will intervene with you to the Supreme Emperor."

"Master Jia, please forgive me. I am also acting on the orders of the Supreme Emperor. Are you asking me to practice favoritism and cheat and resist the order?"

Jia Rui seemed to be speechless by the other party's words. Now he pointed at Shen Wence, his fingers started to tremble, but he didn't say a word.

"Okay, Mr. Jia, you've seen me, it's time to go."

"No, you must let him go today, otherwise I will confiscate your Shuntian Mansion."

"Haha, Mr. Jia, why don't you look at where this place is? Here are the royal flags given by past emperors."

After hearing this, Jia Rui seemed to be very upset. Finally, he paused for a long time and said with a blush: "Master Shen was my fault just now. Please forgive me, but please consider selling me one for the sake of being an official in the same dynasty." face."

Shen Wence laughed, and then said: "It's not because I don't want to show off Mr. Shen's face, it's because the higher ups are watching closely during this time, I dare not cheat for personal gain!"

Jia Rui quickly stepped forward and whispered in Shen Wence's ear for a long time. The other party nodded gently, "This is just this time, it won't be the same next time."

Jia Rui's face showed great joy, "Thank you Master Shen, I will definitely report it later."

After finishing speaking, Jia Rui walked to the cage and said to Jia Rong and Jia Qiang:

"You have seen what happened just now. My abilities are limited and I can only let one of you come out. Please discuss who will go home with me!"

Jia Rong and Jia Qiang looked at each other, and then suddenly said in unison: "I'll go back first."

Jia Rui covered his forehead and turned his head away, not wanting to look at these two bastards anymore.

The two of them usually seemed to be as close as brothers, but whenever they encountered difficulties, they would blame each other.

"Okay, you two, stop talking. I have decided that Jia Rong will go back with me first, and Jia Qiang will wait for a while."

After saying this, Jia Rui turned his back and stopped looking at them.

Shen Wence and Jia Rui looked at each other, and then waved their hands. The old man standing next to them immediately opened the cell door and dragged Jia Rong out.

After Jia Rong got out of the cell, it seemed like she was living again, and she was so excited that she almost shed tears.

After that, he followed Jia Rui every step of the way, which meant that he was afraid that Jia Rui would leave him in this ghost place again.

But Jia Qiang roared miserably in the cage and cursed Jia Rong.

Jia Rong didn't dare to look at him now, as if he had done something wrong.

Until a few people left the cell, could they still hear Jia Qiang's scolding inside?

After arriving outside, Jia Rui cupped his hands to Shen Wence, Yin of Shuntian Mansion, and then said, "Master Shen, I will take my leave now."

"Then I won't send Mr. Jia off."

The two arrived at Zhenzhen respectively, and then Jia Rui took Jia Rong and left Shuntian Mansion.

When she saw the sun outside Shuntian Mansion, Jia Rong completely let go of her worries.

He plopped down on his knees in front of Jia Rui.

"Uncle Rui, I used to offend you because of my ignorance, but from now on you are my second father."

Jia Rui pouted in his heart, who wants to be your second father?I have a son like you, and I've already died of anger.
