Subversion of the plot [Comprehensive]

Mother Jia was extremely dissatisfied when she heard that Daiyu was Xiaoding, and that her husband's family was from Baiyun Academy.In Jia Mu's mind, there are not many princes and grandsons in the capital who are as intelligent and handsome as Baoyu. Baoyu is only uncertain now. If he is willing to learn, what kind of future will he not earn?Originally, the two Yu'er were a match made in heaven, but the Lin family looked down on them, and even lost their own daughter.

Therefore, Mother Jia took care of her illness and did not go in person that day. Mrs. Wang was the last thing she wanted to face Jia Min. Seeing Mother Jia's attitude, she just didn't go.In the end Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng led the girls there.

Mrs. Xing is not good at talking, but it's not that she doesn't know the rules and etiquette. With Wang Xifeng's help, she can handle it decently.Sanchun saw Daiyu in the back, Yingchun was dull, Xichun was indifferent, Tanchun was shrewd, but was constrained by his concubine status, seeing Daiyu Xiaoding so lively, why didn't he not envy her.From Tanchun's point of view, this marriage was set too low, and it was not a good match for the Lin family.Yingchun has always been submissive, she is the oldest, [-] years old this year, but no one came to propose marriage, it's not like she hasn't thought about such things, but she feels helpless, and obeys her parents as they decide.

Only Xichun had a look on his face, and congratulated him sincerely: "Sister Lin, it can be seen that Uncle Lin loves you and chose such a good marriage for you."

Daiyu is naturally satisfied, but she also knows Sanchun's situation well, so it's not good to reveal it too much.

Baochai and Xiangyun didn't come that day.

Xiangyun is because of historians.

Lord Shihou seems to be involved in the case of reselling ordnance in the army, but in fact it is the emperor's effort to eliminate the forces in the Prince of Nan'an's army. Historians and Wei's family are all under the Prince of Nan'an's command, and they have come to be close. This is also what Shi Xiangyun and the old lady of Nan'an are very familiar with. reason.The prince of Nan'an held the military power and refused to hand it over, and he was very powerful in the army, how could he reassure the emperor?Of the four kings with different surnames, everyone else has released power, but the Nan'an Palace supports its own troops and guards in Ping'an Prefecture and will not return to Beijing.

While sending people to Ping'an Prefecture, the emperor reduced his power, and he didn't want to force people to rebel unless it happened.

The prince of Nan'an also has concerns. After all, his mother, wife and children are all in the capital. Besides, although he can support himself in Ping'an Prefecture, it does not mean that he will benefit from rebellion.The prince of Nan'an is not stupid, he just doesn't want to give up his military power, and wants to continue to hold the power to gain this benefit.Therefore, a delicate balance has been maintained between the prince of Nan'an and the emperor.

However, the emperor was furious this time. Selling arms can lead to treason, and the crimes can be big or small.In the end, the emperor lenient, General Wei was dismissed from his post, expelled his title, and confiscated his family property. Thinking of his meritorious service in protecting the country and his advanced age, he ordered him to return to his hometown with his family.This is already a blessing, Old General Wei thanked Lord Long En, and left the capital with his wife, children and a few servants.

As soon as the Wei family left, the previous marriage with the historian was naturally no longer mentioned, and the historian didn't bother to pursue it.

Historians have a family of two marquises, what kind of scenery they used to be, now they are also dismissed from their posts, but they have not confiscated their homes, but only fined a large sum of money.Lord Shihou knew very well why it was different from the Wei family. The family of the historians had a difficult time before, but it was because they returned the money owed to the treasury. Probably the emperor thought about this, so he didn't raid the house, and the junior's official position was preserved.The historian's family is going to be emptied now, so they have to sell the Hou's mansion and choose another residence. Anyway, the foundation is still there, and there will always be a time for a comeback.

Because Baochai is already engaged, she abides by the rules and refuses to go out easily to cause gossip.

Calculated, Baochai is one year younger than Yingchun, and she will be sixteen this year, which is the best age for a girl. After sixteen, she will grow old slowly.Fortunately, she is now engaged to Baoyu, otherwise she would really be called an old lady.Even so, the Jia family did not discuss the wedding date for a long time, and Aunt Xue became anxious.

Mrs. Wang reassured her: "Sister, why worry? After all, the marriage has already been decided. Baoyu is only fourteen this year. After the old lady's birthday is over in August, I will mention it to the old lady. I will pass the big gift before the year before and make an appointment." When the days come, I will let Baochai pass by next year. I also hope that she will come sooner. I like Baochai's virtuousness and generosity the most, and she is always ready. No girl I have ever met can compare to her. When she comes, she can take care of Baoyu, urge Baoyu to study and improve, and help me take care of trivial matters, so I don’t know how much time I have saved.”

Aunt Xue was satisfied when she heard that Baochai was going to be the housekeeper. She smiled and said, "It's too early to say that. She is young and ignorant, so it's not worthy of your praise."

After all, Aunt Xue got the right words, and she will go to prepare the dowry later.

Now that Baochai is settled, Xue Pan has not married yet, and Aunt Xue is also worried.It's also just right, if the sister-in-law is the first to get started, there may be conflicts if the dowry is accompanied.Even so, Aunt Xue went to find an official matchmaker and asked the matchmaker to help her pay attention.

Xue Pan was beaten up by Liu Xianglian in the old year, and he felt ashamed to see others. When he recovered from his injury, he pretended to go out to learn business. Regardless of Aunt Xue's dissuasion, he followed the old shopkeeper and the guys in the shop and left.

When Xue Pan came back half a year later, he urged Aunt Xue to pack the bride price and go to Xia's house to propose marriage.

"Xia's family? Which Xia's family? How do you know that you have to worry about life's major events just once you go out?" Aunt Xue was startled, afraid that he would be coaxed.

"Mom, I can't forget, Osmanthus Xia's family, like our family, is a merchant named in the household department. When I was young, the two families had contacts. The old man of the Xia family disappeared a few years ago. There is only an old grandmother and a girl living in the house. My brother is helping me, seeing me is like seeing my own son. Her girl, sixteen, is about to say goodbye, mom will send someone there quickly, and I will promise another family before it is too late." Xue Pan looked anxious. , actually keeps that Xia family girl in his heart all the time.

At this moment, Aunt Xue remembered that Osmanthus Xia's family was said to have dozens of hectares of plots of land, all planning bureaus in the city belonged to her family, and a bonsai in the palace was also enshrined by her family, which was extremely rich.It's rare that Xia's family has a simple population, an old grandmother and a girl, if they really get married, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing!

Aunt Xue was already moved, and Xue Pan couldn't stop pestering her, so she invited an official matchmaker to propose marriage.

The Xia family is obviously interested, so it's done as soon as they say it.

The children of both families are grown up, so the marriage is in a hurry, and they have to go through the door years ago.

When Baoyu heard about this, he was still worried about Xiangling, but when he turned around, he was overjoyed by Xiren, saying that Yingchun had a family.

The son-in-law of the east bed chosen by Jia Amnesty was named Sun, Sun Shaozu, and the two families were originally family friends.This man was in his late thirties and was not married. He was alone in Beijing. He had assumed a post in the capital and was promoted to the Marquis of the Ministry of War.Jia Amnesty told Jia's mother, but Jia's mother was unwilling, but felt that her daughter's marriage was decided by her parents, so she didn't say anything.Jia Zheng, however, looked down on Sun Shaozu. Sun Shaozu had nowhere to go to join Jia's family many years ago, and he was not a family of Shili, but now he wanted the two families to marry. How could it be appropriate?But Jia Amnesty ignored him, and quickly settled the marriage. Not long after the big engagement, the wedding date was fixed.

Since the marriage was settled, Yingchun was in a state of panic and fear, without the shyness and longing of a newlywed at all.But what can I do other than cry on my back?During the day, I was still busy preparing dowry clothes with the girls, and even after a long time, I seemed to get used to it, and would be embarrassed by being teased.

Only Jia Min felt uneasy about this matter.

After Jia Min died, he stayed in Jia's house for many years and saw everything, so how could he not know the tragedy of Yingchun.This girl is really a wooden person, she can't make a sound when a needle is pierced, and she is used to accepting everything, but she is also a good girl, Jia Min just doesn't know it, she knows it clearly, how could she bear to watch Yingchun fall into the wolf's den again.

She knew that her elder brother couldn't make sense, but Jia's mother didn't care, so she had to talk to Lin Ruhai in the end.

"It's my niece after all, she's such an innocent girl, then Sun Shaozu is really wrong."

Lin Ruhai saw that she was so attentive, so he went to investigate, and sure enough, he found something.This Sun Shaozu has a tyrannical temperament, capable of beating girls to death, and also greedy for lust.When Sun Shaozu mentioned his marriage with others outside, he said that Jia She owed him 5000 taels of silver and could not pay it back, so he took his daughter to pay off the debt.

Now that the emperor is cleaning up the officialdom, Sun Shaozu is nothing. Lin Ruhai said hello to his colleagues, and not long after, Sun Shaozu was removed from the candidate list, and he found two mistakes and dismissed the command post.

Sun Shaozu looked around anxiously, but to no avail.

When Jia Amnesty saw it, he was immediately unwilling to marry Yingchun, and now that the Sun family was defeated, how could he dare to argue with the Jia family.Jia Amnesty did not discuss with others, and forcefully withdrew the marriage.Originally, few people came to Jia's house to propose marriage, but now there is a resignation, and the reputation is even worse. Jia's mother scolded Jia She angrily, but it was useless.

Jia Min sighed, "Brother is too impatient."

"The second girl's temperament is really not good. Even if Sun Shaozu is gone, how can she know that the next one will be good? She has no idea, and it is useless if she can't stand up." Lin Ruhai also mourned her misfortune and angered her.

"Who can control who for the rest of her life? We will see her fate in the future." Jia Min knew that maybe she could save one or two people, but she couldn't save the decaying Jia family.There are no eggs under the overturned nest.

At the end of July, Jia Zheng returned home.

Jia Zheng handed over his official duties and had to take a month off. It happened that the third day of August was Jia Mu's [-]th birthday.Due to a change in the historian's family, Jia's mother was ill for a period of time. After she recovered, she was not in good health, and often looked at Baoyu Sanchun in a daze.After all, Jia's mother has experienced a lot, and she smells something ominous. One Zhen family is gone, one historian is down, how do you know that the next one is not the Jia family?

After the birthday party was over, Mrs. Wang proposed to have a big gift with Xue's family.

Jiamu said lightly, "You are the one who decides." Then she said, "Choose a date in April next year. It's too long to wait until August."

Mrs. Wang was quite surprised, but it was good that Jia's mother didn't object, and she immediately went to make preparations happily.

Jia's mother also considered that the marriage has been decided and cannot be changed, and Baoyu will be fifteen next year, so it is better to get married earlier, just in case...

Mrs. Xing had a few glasses of wine during the dinner this day and chatted with Youshi. The two of them were walking in the garden, but when they saw the rockery, a thick-handed girl came out.Taking a closer look, it turned out to be the silly elder sister in Jia's mother's room.

This silly elder sister is about fifteen or sixteen years old. Although she is thick and strong and often does rough work, she is not a farmer after all. She has fair skin and black hair. It's not ugly, but it looks silly when you smile.Ever since Jing Huan became a silly elder sister, she has refused to laugh anymore, and she even talked back to others, but was slapped, almost deafening her ears.Since then, she has become more and more reticent, only burying her head in doing things, hiding by herself when she has nothing to do, trying to practice again, but it has been unsuccessful.In fact, she has always coveted that piece of psychic jade, if she got that jade, maybe she still has a chance.However, she is just a rough girl, and Baoyu is the phoenix egg of the Jia family, how can she get it?If she was born delicate and beautiful, she might be able to touch her, but now she looks like this...

This day, she hid here as usual, but accidentally picked up an embroidered spring bag.On the embroidered spring sac was a pair of naked and happy men and women, which should have made people blush, but she was moved and thoughtful.

At the beginning, Jing Huan taught Jia Yuanchun the art of intercourse, which eventually killed the ignorant Jia Yuanchun. However, the art of intercourse was originally practiced between husband and wife, and both men and women benefited from it.Later, it evolved into a benefit for one party, because these methods are simple and convenient, and have quick results.

Jing Huan is well aware of the intercourse technique, and she made mistakes before, but now she thinks that she can return to the path of cultivation through the intercourse technique.The only trouble is this stupid body, she can't imagine that she has lived with such a stupid body for several years.

"What are you doing here, you silly girl?" Youshi asked with a smile, also deliberately teasing this silly elder sister because of drinking.

"What are you holding in your hand?" Mrs. Xing was sharp-eyed, she stepped forward and took the embroidered spring pouch in her hand, and her expression changed after one glance.

Jing Huan hurriedly made a foolish look: "I picked it up in the rockery."

You Shi also saw it, but she was from the Ningguo Mansion, and this was a matter of the Rongguo Mansion, so she had to avoid it, so she found an excuse and walked away.

Mrs. Xing warned Jing Huan repeatedly, and then turned to look for Mrs. Wang, planning in her heart to embarrass Mrs. Wang.This mansion seems to be Wang Xifeng's housekeeper, but in fact, who knows that the real housekeeper is the second wife, and Wang Xifeng can't handle the key to the storehouse, so she can't do big things.Besides, Wang Xifeng has learned a lot now. Except for occasions like festivals or the old lady's birthday, she always finds an excuse to send back the pair of cards, so Madam Wang asks Li Wan for help most of the time, and she looks forward to Baochai's passing.

In the past, Wang Xifeng was greedy for power and wanted to gain a firm foothold, so she was willing to be Mrs. Wang's housekeeper. After all, she was the eldest.Once she is unwilling, Mrs. Wang can't be too reluctant, after all, she is not her daughter-in-law, she has a decent mother-in-law.

Mrs. Wang saw the embroidered spring sac, and was stabbed by Mrs. Xing again. Her face turned pale with anger, and she ran to Wang Xifeng to question her.

Of course Wang Xifeng couldn't shoulder this responsibility, she cried and argued, and pulled herself out.

Mrs. Wang gradually calmed down, but she made up her mind to take this opportunity to search the garden, and anyone who was inappropriate would have to be kicked out.How could Wang Xifeng be willing to go to the muddy water, excused that Brother Kui was uncomfortable and hid away, Madam Xing seldom said a few words for Wang Xifeng, Madam Wang had to go by herself, and Madam Xing was accompanied by Wang Shanbao's family.

That night, others You Ke, but Tan Chun was furious.In the original book, Tanchun scolded Sister Feng and beat Wang Shanbao's family, but this time Sister Feng didn't come, it was Mrs. Wang who came. No matter how angry Tanchun felt, she didn't dare to confront Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang is her aunt. With her marriage in hand, why did she alienate her mother-in-law and brothers to curry favor with Mrs. Wang?Isn't it just hoping for a good marriage?

After Mrs. Wang and others left, Tanchun lay on the bed and cried loudly. He could only tell the waiter: "If a family like us comes in from the outside, it won't be able to kill him for a while, but we Let’s start with chaos from the inside. They plagiarized like this, where did our daughter’s innocence go? Before the foreign enemy came, we killed each other. First, the Zhen’s family was raided, and the historian’s family also collapsed. Our family didn’t keep a low profile. , but one’s own people copied from their own.”

This night, I copied chess and paintings, as well as Baoyu's four sons, and they were kicked out early the next morning. Except for close-fitting clothes, all the bodies I had saved on weekdays were confiscated.

All this was kept from Jia Mu, and Jia Mu did not know anything about it.

Mrs. Wang specially called the attacker, rewarded her with two good clothes, and mentioned the monthly regulations, telling her to serve Baoyu well.A big stone in Xiren's heart finally fell to the ground, but his face was very reserved, and Mrs. Wang was more and more satisfied.

Just at this time, a woman outside suddenly reported in a panic: "Madam, it's not good, many officials came from the Xue family, and took away the lock of the uncle of the Xue family, saying that the uncle of the Xue family killed someone."

"What!" Mrs. Wang was startled.

It turned out that Xue Pan was drinking with someone in a tavern, and got into an argument with someone, and when he got drunk, he beat the waiter to death.This matter was reported to the official, and after hearing it, I don't know who reported Xue Pan for beating Feng Yuan to death.Xue Pan is a person who can't bear hardships and pain, so he will be tortured in court, not to mention mentioning Jia's family, even mentioning Wang Ziteng will not work.With tears in his eyes and snot in his nose, Xue Pan confessed and made a confession. He thought it was over, but he was locked in prison, that is the real suffering.

Xue Pan cried and begged all day, but no one paid any attention to him. Instead, a jailer sneered: "Who can blame you for suffering so much today? Your family has done less bullying? Now it's time to pay for it."

The trial of the case was fast, and Xue Pan committed two murders and was sentenced to death.

When Aunt Xue got the news, she passed away immediately, Baochai's eyes were swollen from crying, and she had to hold back her grief to take care of herself.But at this time the Xia family got the news and immediately sent a matchmaker to withdraw the marriage, saying that the Xue family had tricked her daughter into marrying a murderer.Although Baochai was angry, she didn't have the heart to take care of it. Xue Pan was sentenced to death and was about to be executed in a few days. She could only ask Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang is also anxious, but the only one who can use her strength is Wang Ziteng, but Wang Ziteng is not in Beijing.The Jia family's famous post didn't work if it was put out, and who was behind it was actually not showing any kindness at all.

The day before the execution, the family members were allowed to see each other for the last time.

Aunt Xue couldn't help crying, and finally went to the prison cell, and when she saw Xue Pan's appearance, she almost fainted again.In just a few days, Xue Pan lost a lot of weight, his face was yellow, his hair was disheveled, he didn't have any good clothes on his body, and there were many wounds, which made Aunt Xue's heart ache.

"Mom! Mom, save me quickly, I don't want to die, I don't want to die." Xue Pan cried and howled at Aunt Xue as if seeing a savior.

"Pan'er, my son." Aunt Xue just cried because she couldn't help it.

Xue Pan was executed the next day. Aunt Xue fell ill and fell into a coma. Baochai was a girl, and the family was in a state of turmoil. Finally, Jia Lian came forward to collect Xue Pan's body.

Jia's family was discussing this matter, but suddenly someone from Wang's family came to report the funeral: "Our master is dead."

Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng only felt five thunderbolts, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked: "What's the matter? Isn't your master patrolling the border?"

The visitor wiped his tears and said: "Master was ordered to return to Beijing. He caught wind and cold more than [-] miles away from Beijing. He was treated by a doctor. However, there is no famous doctor in the area. The doctor prescribed the wrong medicine, and he died after taking one dose. "

"Your master has only been in office for one year, how did you come back?" Mrs. Wang asked.

Mentioning this, the visitor secretly hated: "It's all Jia Yucun!"

"Jia Yucun?" A few months ago, Jia Yucun was promoted to the post of Minister of the Ministry of War, and the Jia family even went to congratulate him.Because Jia Yu Village was recommended by Lin Ruhai, Jia Zheng admired it very much, and was also recommended by Prince Teng Leiben, so he managed to come here in just a few years, which is truly remarkable.

"Because the case of Uncle Xue's family was tried by Jia Yucun, Jia Yucun was involved. In order to protect himself, Jia Yucun said that he was threatened by Jia and Wang's family at the beginning. He was afraid of power and dared not refuse. Henceforth Master Fan's return to Beijing is because the emperor ordered him to return to Beijing to defend himself." In fact, it's not just this matter, it's just convenient to say it.

Mrs. Wang was stunned, she didn't expect that her husband's family would be involved this time, she gritted her teeth, wishing she could swallow Jia Yucun alive!

The aunt and nephew rushed back to the Wang family for the funeral, crying together with Mrs. Wang's family.Wang Ziteng has a high position and authority, he is the core figure in the four big families, and even the pillar of the Wang family. Now that Wang Ziteng died, his children and grandchildren are useless, and there is no one to support the family.To make matters worse, before the funeral, the Wang family was surrounded by Prince Zhongshun and everything in the house was sealed up, only the front was reserved as a mourning hall.

Wang Xifeng felt chills when he heard the crimes read out in the imperial decree, and he didn't dare to stay any longer, so he hurried back with Mrs. Wang.

Wang Xifeng felt uneasy. Sure enough, within a few days, Ningguo Mansion was raided, and Rongguo Mansion was also besieged by Jin Yiwei.There are a lot of crimes here: lax family management, exceeding the system, taking up lawsuits, bullying by slaves, forcing people to death, hiding criminals' belongings...

The charges against Ningguo Mansion are even worse, and they are very unbearable.Tu Jing checked the Ningguo Mansion because of Jia Jing's incident, and knew that the pits inside were filthy, disgusting to the extreme, and this time he specifically confessed to severe punishment.The Ningguo Mansion ransacked the family and expelled the nobles. Jia Zhenjiarong and his son were killed in half.

Immediately afterwards, the Rongguo Mansion followed in the footsteps: Jia pardoned Jia Zheng, expelled the noble and dismissed from office, Jia Lian dismissed from office, and all three were beheaded after autumn.Originally, Jia Lian had only engaged in a monopoly of lawsuits, so he would not be given a heavy sentence, but the filial piety of his country stopped his wife from remarrying, which angered Tu Jing and sentenced him to beheaded.After Jia Lian heard the imperial decree, he was stunned, and his legs were so weak that he couldn't stand up.In addition, Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng, aunt and nephew were also charged with crimes, but Wang Xifeng took the lawsuit and was imprisoned for three years, while Mrs. Wang was charged with hiding the property of a criminal and was sentenced to exile for three thousand miles and ten years in prison.It turned out that when the Zhen family was raided, some women from the Zhen family came with a few big boxes, and Mrs. Wang quietly took them away.

When Jia Mu heard the bad news, she fell down and never woke up.

The Jia family was in a mess. In the chaos, Baoyu suddenly became stupid.At first the attacker thought he was frightened, but Sheyue suddenly called out, "Where is the jade from Second Master Bao?"

The psychic jade on Baoyu's neck is gone!

Xiren cried anxiously, but everyone was too busy to take care of themselves, who cares about gold and jade.In the end, the attacking people didn't even have the time to cry. Originally, the master and his servants had to sell them together. He redeemed himself with money first, but those servants were left alone.

The entire Jia family, except Li Wan, who was a chaste woman, was not imprisoned, and part of her private property was returned. The others, including the young Kui Geer, were all sent to the detention center.All the servants were sold out, and when the case was fully concluded, it was already the summer of the following year, and Jia's family was released, all of them described as shabby and haggard, at a loss as to where they were going.

At this time, several cars drove over, and the butler of the Lin family walked up to Mrs. Xing and said: "Madam, my wife ordered to pick you up. My wife is taking care of the old lady's funeral at home, so it's not easy to come here."

After Jia's mother died, the whole family was imprisoned, and Jia Min could only take care of the affairs behind him.Jia Min thought that Jia's mother had been rich and enjoyed her whole life, and she had many grandchildren, but in the end she was a married woman who took care of the affairs of her family, how desolate it was.

Jia Min has always been indifferent to the Jia family, but she can't ignore it at this time.Jia Min prepared a large house, which was enough to accommodate the entire Jia family, and then left 200 taels of silver, and ignored the rest.No one can care about who for a lifetime, besides, Jia's family has undergone such changes, and the family has no man to support the family, how can they live in the capital?The Jia family still has a sacrifice field, which is not confiscated, so what they should do is to support Jia Mu's coffin and return to the south.

The 200 taels of silver that Jia Min prepared was equivalent to their travel expenses.

It's not that Mrs. Xing can't figure it out, but now the family... all the men are gone, Mrs. Wang has been sentenced to exile, Wang Xifeng is in prison, Mrs. You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have gone to Mrs. You, and Mrs. Xing is the only one who is in charge of the house.Mrs. Xing herself has no children, and she loves Brother Kui and Qiao'er the most, and Brother Kui is the grandson of the eldest family, who will get married and start a business in the future, and can support her until the end of her life.So after Jiamu's filial piety, Mrs. Xing took care of everything and took the whole family back to Jinling's original place.

But Li Wan and Jia Lan are not here.

Back then, the whole family was still in the detention center, and only Li Wan was free, but she redeemed Jia Lan with money, and took Jia Lan back to her mother's house without caring about the rest of the Jia family.The Jia family committed a crime, and the children had no possibility of studying and becoming an official. Li Wan's efforts were in vain, and when he thought of the days in the Jia family, he was afraid that he would resent and hate him, but his actions at this time seemed a bit cold.Maybe she is also afraid, now that Jia's family is poor and white, where does the whole family come from for food and drink?Only she had some money, but that was her dowry, and she worked so hard to save it for Jia Lan to study, become an official, marry and start a family, so she would not waste it on others.

Jia Min sent the Jia family away, but fell ill, which frightened Lin Ruhai and Daiyu.

Jia Min smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, it's just that after so many years, everything is finally over, and my heart can be at ease."

Even Jia Yucun, although it is only demoted now, is because the emperor still needs to use him as a knife, but it can be imagined that Jia Yucun's ending is already doomed.

Lin Ruhai felt a lot of emotion after going through these things, thinking that after all, he was a former minister of the Supreme Emperor, so he repeatedly wrote letters to resign from office on the grounds that he was old and unwell.In the end, Tu Jing dismissed him from the position of Shangshu and retained the title of Prince Taifu. In fact, this is a vain job and an honor, so Tu Jing appointed him as the master of the upper study to teach the princes to read.

Tu Jing is quite satisfied with Lin Ruhai, he understands current affairs, advances and retreats, and is very capable in handling affairs.Thinking that the daughter of the Lin family is betrothed to the son of the dean of Baiyun Academy, she decides to give her some kindness when the time comes. After all, the daughter of the Lin family is Tao Shuobai's only disciple, so this time can be regarded as a gesture to Tao Shuobai.

At this time, Tao Shuobai came to a brothel in the city by night.

Of course he is not looking for flowers and willows, but here is the person he is looking for.

The servants of Jia's family sold them, and those young and beautiful maids were scattered, and many of them fell into the fireworks and willow alley, in a pitiful situation.Among them, the silly eldest sister is a special case. Although she is young, she has no beauty, and she also falls into the brothel.The grade of this brothel is not high, and the customers are of all kinds. The silly elder sister just does rough work when she buys it, and she also has to receive customers.

Customers who don't have money are not so picky. If other girls don't accept them, the silly elder sister has no right to refuse.

Jing Huan was lying on the wooden bed in the firewood room, thinking of kicking that old pig butcher just now, he laughed heartily.Smiling and laughing and then silent, I don't know whether I should live anymore, can I hide from the first day of the junior high school, can I hide from the fifteenth day?She knew very well that there were all means in the brothel to make the girl submit, but she just didn't expect that such a dignified appearance would fall into such a situation, which was even more unbearable than in Jia's house.

Suddenly a light flashed, and something hidden in his arms flew out of the door.

"Who!" Jing Huan touched his bosom reflexively, and the psychic treasure that was originally hidden here was gone.She took advantage of the chaos to steal it, just to be able to practice again.

Tao Shuobai ignored her, got the psychic gem, and left as quietly as when she came.

Jing Huan guessed the identity of the visitor, pursed his lips tightly, and finally gritted his teeth fiercely, wanting to practice with room art.

Without the psychic gem, Jia Baoyu was in a daze.In the past, Mrs. Jia Muwang doted on him, and Xiren Sheyue and other maids served him, but now there is no one around him. Mrs. Xing felt a little pity for him, so she ordered someone to come and look after him, and at the same time, she was looking forward to an early morning. Out of filial piety, when Xue Baochai gets married, someone will take care of him.

Unexpectedly, three years later, Xue's family came to withdraw their marriage.

Mrs. Xing was very angry, but now their family is in the same boat, and Xue's family has not ransacked the house, and the family wealth is richer than theirs, so it may not be good to go to court.

On the contrary, Wang Xifeng sighed and advised Mrs. Xing to go back to the original engagement ceremony and withdraw the marriage.Wang Xifeng's three-year sentence ended and she just returned to Jinling, but because she was a prisoner's wife, the family refused to accept her at first.Wang Xifeng is not that kind, and her children are here, how can she leave?The clan kept saying that their branch had committed a crime and wanted to drive away their orphans and widows, but she would not swallow it. The two branches in Beijing set up the sacrificial land, and she held the title deed in her hand, just to prevent It's today.Now the only males in their mansion are Baoyu, Jia Huan, and Brother Kui. Among them, Brother Kui has the most important status. He is the grandson of the eldest family and should inherit the family business, including the sacrifice land.

After making a big fuss and taking advantage of the situation to suppress them, Wang Xifeng not only succeeded in staying, but also made the other Jinling factions dare not bully them at will.As a condition, Wang Xifeng set aside some sacrificial fields for the other branches to cultivate, and they paid for the family school fees.

Wang Xifeng felt uneasy earlier, so she secretly hid a sum of money, the amount was not very large, but it is not like in the past, it is enough.

Mrs. Xing was oppressed enough by her clansmen for the past three years. Now that Wang Xifeng has the means, she let her decide. Mrs. Xing has become an old lady.

Wang Xifeng went around many places, and redeemed Ping'er again. The two depended on each other, and life did not feel hard.She divorced the Xue family and planned to buy an innocent woman to take care of Baoyu. Although Sanchun's marriage was difficult, if she lowered her standards, she could still find a suitable family.Yingchun is at her mercy, Tanchun has her own ideas, but Xichun cuts her hair and wants to become a monk.Wang Xifeng was busy all day and didn't have much energy. Seeing that she insisted on this, she asked her to clean up at home.

After Xue's family resigned, Baochai was nearly twenty years old. She did not marry out, but recruited an honest and responsible son-in-law to support the family business and take care of Aunt Xue who had been bedridden.

A hundred years have passed, the person on the throne has changed twice, and Tao Shuobai and Xu Yan have long since left the capital.

Walking casually along the way, and then returning to the capital, things are changing.

In an alley, several children were throwing stones at a ragged man, cursing: "Old witch! Get out of here! Old witch!"

"My mother said that she is an old immortal who can eat people, that's why she lived so long without dying."

"Then how old is she?"

"Very old, probably... more than 100 years old?"

The children talked, and gradually walked away.

But what he saw curled up in the alley was an old man, with ragged clothes, skinny, with gray and white messy hair, revealing a pair of cold eyes.Others couldn't recognize him, but Tao Shuobai recognized this person through the fluctuation of his soul—Jing Huan!

Back then, Jing Huan took advantage of the right time and place to steal the lives of other people. It was very difficult to meet the same person every time, so she didn’t kill anyone. By practicing slowly, she didn’t get anything else, but she got much longer than ordinary people. lifespan.She couldn't stay where she was and started running around, and now she's almost 120 years old, a very old body with a long life.But she can no longer rely on this body to steal life, and she is tired of hiding like this and lingering on her last breath. She is very eager to die.

When she saw Tao Shuobai, her eyes lit up, and she begged in a hoarse voice: "Help me..."

Tao Shuobai was silent for a moment, then raised his hand: "I will send you into reincarnation."

What happens next time is up to her.
