"What? Did the king make a mistake?"

When Jia She heard this, he subconsciously denied it three times.

However, looking at Scarface's half-smile, a thunderbolt suddenly went off in his mind.

His eyes involuntarily fell on Zhao'er's head lying on the ground.

In an instant, Jia She understood everything.

Today, after hearing Jia Lian and Zhao Er's respective stories,

Jia She already had a strong suspicion in his mind.

Combined with the fact that the salt tax from Yangzhou was being paid to the capital today, Lin Daiyu was canonized as the Lady of Leping County.

Jia She instantly felt that the Yangzhou Lin family must have an unclear hidden relationship with the Qingfengzhai rebels who were now causing trouble in the south of the Yangtze River.

Otherwise, how could the eight million taels of tax silver leave Yangzhou?

Why did His Majesty read out the imperial edict conferring a title on Lin Daiyu in public when the tax money arrived in Beijing?

You know, as early as when the first news came from Yangzhou,

Many people in the court submitted memorials, claiming that Lin Ruhai had an ambiguous relationship with the rebels and wanted to label him as a rebel.

But they were all kept by the emperor, the meaning is self-evident!

This can be further proved by combining the words of Zhao'er Jia Lian.

And his foolish brother's family, as well as the old lady, all wanted to match Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, and this matter was known to almost everyone in the mansion.

At that time, Jia She came up with a brilliant plan.

If it can be carried out, not only can I vent my anger for being ignored in the mansion for many years,

maybe,

There will also be a chance to take back the power of the Jia family.

Even if it fails, he will not let his second brother have an easy time.

However, before starting your plan, necessary confidentiality is required.

Jia Lian is his son, so he can just scold him and make him shut up.

And Zhao'er, a mere servant, is the most secretive of all. Only the dead are the most secretive.

But before that, the waste can be recycled.

So, Jia She ordered Zhao'er to keep a close eye on the guests during the dinner.

See if it is as he guessed, and then kill Zhao'er without anyone knowing.

In this way, everything is under your control.

But what he never expected was that

Before Zhao'er could return for him to deal with, Zhao'er's head had already appeared here.

So what it means is self-evident, Zhao'er is exposed!

Who else could it be except those damn cruel traitors who killed people so brutally and played with their heads like balls?

Although Jia She is dissolute, he is not really stupid.

In a flash, he figured out the trick.

He was already 70% certain in his heart that the person in front of him was undoubtedly the rebel from Qingfeng Village.

However, since the other party did not kill me directly, it means that I still have value to use.

When he thought of this, Jia She felt as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

He didn't care about the stains on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly to beg for mercy.

"Good man, spare my life!"

"I will obey the orders of my good grandfather!"

Scarface chuckled and looked at Jia She, who was kowtowing, with amusement.

"It seems that you are indeed very smart, very good."

"Smart people, I like that!"

“I just love talking to smart people!”

Jia She raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a smile,

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I am truly ashamed."

"I only beg the king to spare my life. Although I am not talented, I am willing to serve the king at all costs!"

Although Jia She is neither good at literature nor at martial arts, he is old and experienced, and is not a mediocre person.

Now I am at the mercy of others. If I want to survive, I must actively cooperate and take a firm stand.

Scarface nodded in satisfaction.

Then he took out something from his pocket and threw it directly in front of Jia She.

"Sign this and you'll live!"

"Yes Yes!"

Jia She immediately lowered his head and pulled up the piece of yellow paper on the ground. When he picked it up tremblingly and saw the contents clearly, he was instantly stunned.

I saw that it was written:
