The Second Master of the Iron-blooded Lian of the Red Chamber

Hearing that the book of alliance had really been stolen, King Zhongshun was so furious that he couldn't bear it and dropped his tea bowl.Mr. Lu was taken aback for a moment, even his usual superior demeanor was a little weaker.King Zhongshun is gloomy, scheming, and ambitious, but he rarely loses control of his emotions.

"My lord, I'm so angry that I've lost my body." Mr. Lu persuaded.

King Zhongshun was still a very restrained person. He waved his hand and called his confidants to pass the letter to Qi Chuan, Governor of Shandong. No matter what method he uses, he must take back the alliance letter, otherwise he will come to see him!

After finishing speaking, King Zhongshun ordered the confidant maid who was in charge of serving in the study to come into the study to tidy up.

As for the Governor's Mansion in Shandong, Qi Chuan became an ant on the hot pot.How could he still use Zhongshun Wang Shiwan's urgent letter to urge him, Qi Chuan can be the governor of a place, doesn't he know the importance of the alliance letter?Once this kind of thing is spread, it is a crime of treason, and the nine clans should be punished!

Before the Flying Pigeon's emergency report from the Zhongshun Palace arrived, Qi Chuan mobilized a large number of cronies and minions to further control the city gates, checkpoints and other places in various parts of Shandong Province, and stepped up searches in Jinan City.

But even if Qi Chuan tried his best, he didn't even see a shadow of Jia Jing.Jia Jing and the letter of alliance that was stolen after Jia Jing disappeared for more than a month seemed to disappear out of thin air, leaving no trace behind.

As for how the alliance book was stolen, Gein and Jia Jing had figured out Qi Chuan's intention to prevent him from escaping from the territory of Shandong. A return carbine, a hit will hit.

It turned out that Jia Jing heard that the Liaocheng checkpoint was very strict, allowing people to enter and not to leave, so he thought that now is a good time to return to Jinan.So Jia Lian and Cheng Jin and Cheng He's brothers disguised themselves and returned from Liaocheng to Shandong.

Although King Zhongshun has been operating in Shandong for a long time, even the Governor Qi Chuan obeys him, but under the Governor, there are always soldiers who are finally the emperor, using the power of the Governor's Mansion to hunt down and kill the court officials, and even Qi Chuan can only do it secretly. In the name of catching Jiangyang robbers and rescuing Jia Jing, a doctor in the military department of the patrol envoy, he only sent his confidantes to do it.

In addition, Shandong is adjacent to Jiangnan in the south and south, and Zhili in the north. The Western Jin Dynasty can enter the Jin Dynasty.Even if going north to Zhili is the shortest route back to Beijing from Shandong, Qi Chuan dare not ignore the other two parties, and it is inevitable to spread his strength.

When the governor's mansion was stolen for the first time, Qi Chuan responded quickly and ordered all parts of the province to strictly guard the city gates.From Qi Chuan's point of view, at this time, according to common sense, whether Jia Jing wanted to leave the city or enter the city, he would not dare to go directly north, especially Liaocheng and Dezhou, which are the most heavily fortified.Unexpectedly, Jia Jing did the opposite, rushed out of Dezhou City overnight before Qi Chuan sealed off the city gates, and hid in the dilapidated tea house under the watchful eyes of the Dezhou city gate guards.

There are teahouses like those outside Dezhou City beside the official roads outside the city gates. Because there are no walls, you can see through them at a glance from a distance. Who would have guessed that Jia Jing could hide in such teahouses for more than a month.

Qi Chuan searched day and night for more than a month, but Jia Jing was nowhere to be seen, and the interrogation became more and more intense. If he were an ordinary person, he would never dare to appear in Liaocheng, where the interrogation is the most intense.But after Jia Jing heard that Liaocheng was not allowed to enter or leave, he decisively chose to enter Shandong again from Liaocheng.

Because Liaocheng's interrogation was tight, the gate guards in Liaocheng were also the most exhausted. At this time, they were afraid of letting Jia Jing out of the city, so they would carefully interrogate the people who left the city, but they just took a quick look at the people who entered the city.Jia Jing and the other three entered the city in disguise, but they were easily let in.

Although Qi Chuan could mobilize quite a few troops, the battle line was stretched too long, and all of them were drawn to the border between Shandong and Lin Province. The further Jia Jing and the other three went to Jinan, the more empty Qi Chuan's defenses became.

It's like marching and fighting, as long as you bypass the enemy's defense area and sneak attack the enemy's camp in the camp, you can often get miraculous results. Signed the deed and disappeared without a trace.

Because Qi Chuan had spent nearly two months and hadn't found a trace of Jia Jing's news, he was also panicked. When the letter of alliance was really lost, Qi Chuan was shocked and angry, and flew into a rage.

After being furious, Qi Chuan was so frightened that his face was ashen and sweat profusely, it's over, everything is over.If you don't fight for wealth and honor, you may end up with a whole family of copycats.

Fortunately, Qi Chuan was able to be the governor of one place, so he was not completely out of ideas. After the fear passed, he immediately gave orders to block the city gate, and at the same time sent a message to King Zhongshun.But Jia Jing and the other three seemed to have disappeared, even though Qi Chuan turned Jinan City over, they still couldn't find anyone.

Whether it is a conspiracy or a conspiracy, in fact, it is all people's hearts that are conspired.Jia Jing and the other three took a slanted sword, Gu Ran took the millet out of the fire, but he grasped Qi Chuan and the others' mentality that they would not dare to appear in the heavily guarded Liaocheng, and it was safer than going northward.

King Zhongshun holds the Qiming in his hand, and arranges many eyeliners and traps waiting for Jia Jing along the way. Jia Jing and the three of them are exhausted from the journey. King Zhongshun not only has a large number of people, but also waits for work with ease. Will Jia Jing be able to return to Beijing smoothly?Must it be safer than entering Jinan City?Not necessarily.

In many cases, the key to winning or losing is not whether the opponent is strong, but whether you can overcome your inner fear and seize a chance.

Jia Jing, Cheng Jin, Cheng and his brothers settled their business and left, but King Zhongshun and Qi Chuan suffered a lot.King Zhongshun's killing orders came one after another, and Qi Chuan did not dare to relax at all.But Jia Jing seemed to have disappeared into the sea like a mud cow, so Qi Chuan had to be more vigilant and stricter in checking the merchants.Even so, Qi Chuan still got nothing.

Shandong is the main route of north-south circulation, and the south of the Yangtze River is rich and prosperous. The silk, porcelain, and tea from the south of the Yangtze River are very popular, and they are very popular in the capital.Others are fine, concubines in the palace, princesses outside the palace, who doesn't love Jiangnan's clothes, fabrics, rouge, and gouache?These things have been stranded in Liaocheng for more than a month, and they have been stranded for a long time, after all, it has caused a lot of complaints.

What's more, it's already summer and the weather is getting hotter. The supply of silk as thin as cicada's wings in Suzhou and Hangzhou in the capital is in short supply.

Because Jia Jing, the military officer patrolling Shandong, disappeared, and regarding the matter of martial law throughout Shandong, the Zhongshun Wang family always used the excuse of looking for Jia Langzhong's whereabouts in the court hall.

Yushitai heard the news, because Liaocheng had been blocked for too long, Yushitai's memorials flew to Emperor Jinghe like snowflakes.

At the court meeting on this day, the courtiers inevitably argued about this matter again.

King Zhongshun walked out of the train and said: "Qizuo the emperor, Jia Jingjia Langzhong is a descendant of Ningguo Mansion. After Zhongliang, he was also an official of the imperial court. He went to Shandong for inspection. He lost news in Shandong like this. How could he not be careful?" Check? Although Liaocheng’s checks are tight, the circulation of goods from the north to the south will be slower, but it’s just that some people who love southern goods are affected, and they will lose their lives if they don’t have these goods. After all, it’s not as important as Jia Langzhong’s safety. Jia Langzhong For the sake of the court’s affairs, the whereabouts are unknown, how can the court abandon the lives of court officials for the sake of the so-called smooth flow of goods between the north and the south?”

As soon as this remark came out, there were naturally many echoes.Apart from the fact that King Zhongshun's words are very reasonable, whoever can go to the court is not a high-ranking official with a generous salary. Naturally, he hopes that if he goes out on business and disappears, the court will try his best to find a rescue.Comparing one's heart to another's heart, the court's efforts to find Jia Jing naturally won the hearts of all civil and military officials.

Jia Daishan walked out of the train and said: "Show the emperor, the north-south currency is related to how many people's livelihood. Many merchants rely on the money sold for their goods to support their parents, wives and children; how many people rely on the north-south currency to run ships?" The boatmen and many Lifu who fought against the big war along the canal also relied on the north-south currency to support their wives and children. How many people’s lives were affected by the blockade of Liaocheng, how can it be said that it has nothing to do with human life? As a result, the timing of treatment was delayed, and their lives were lost. This matter is clearly related to the lives of many people in Liming, how can it be said that it has nothing to do with human lives? I think that the lives of many people in Liming should not be disregarded because of the life of one of Jia Langzhong; There is only one doctor, and continue to block Liaocheng."

Jia Daishan's words are not only reasonable and restrained, but he also understands righteousness, which is much more brilliant than Zhongshun Wang's words just now.If civil and military officials still objected to finding Jia Jing, wouldn't the lives of the court officials be placed above the lives of the people in Liming?Therefore, all the officials in the court said that Jia Jing was still looking for, but looking for Jia Jing did not necessarily mean sealing off Liaocheng.Both can run in parallel.

King Zhongshun was hit in the chest suddenly, and he couldn't catch his breath. He wished he could swallow Jia Daishan alive to choke his breath, but King Zhongshun not only couldn't show his face, he couldn't speak out against it.What he said just now already implied that Jia Jing's order is higher than that of Liming's people; it is natural to oppose the government and the people, even though many people think so in their hearts, but the court can't say such a thing, this is Matter of principle.

So King Zhongshun had no choice but to agree with Jia Daishan, and added that he needed to find Jia Jing with all his strength.

However, after the court was over that day, King Zhongshun returned to the mansion, and Mr. Lu saw that King Zhongshun looked bad, and he felt a little worried, so he hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

King Zhongshun made a gesture of disrespect, and entered the study with a somewhat decadent footstep for the first time.Mr. Lu followed behind King Zhongshun, and the maid in charge of the study knew that the prince was going to discuss another matter, so she bowed and left.

"My lord, is there any bad news today?" Mr. Lu asked tentatively.

King Zhongshun nodded and said: "Today, the government has decided to lift the blockade of Liaocheng, and other towns in Shandong will also lift the martial law. This Jia Jing, after all, can't be trapped."

When Mr. Lu heard this, he was taken aback for a moment, and then felt that this was a logical matter. After thinking about it for a while, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes and said: "My lord, Qi Chuan can't stay!"

King Zhongshun was startled suddenly, his dazed eyes burst into light again, and said with a sneer: "Yes, the whole province of Shandong is under such martial law that Jia Jing has not been caught. Now that the control is completely lifted, only Qi Chuan can win the fight." Can Jia Jing fail? A poisoned wrist must be chopped off. Although it hurts a bit, it can save your life."

Not long after King Zhongshun wanted to kill Qi Chuan, Qi Chuan, who was far away in the Governor's Mansion in Shandong, received a letter. He saw two lines of writing on the letter. The sarcasm on Jia Jing's face can be seen in the wandering handwriting.Letter to:

"There is no need to send each other off for more than a month, I urge you to surrender and use the whole family" in sixteen characters, signed by Jia Jing, and even stamped with the official seal of the doctor of the Ministry of War.

Qi Chuan was furious and furious, but he was also so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. In just a moment, the silk clothes on his body were soaked through.Advise you to surrender, urge you to surrender!Why doesn't Qi Chuan know this truth, as long as the alliance book is in the hands of Emperor Jinghe, he will be imprisoned by the fate of the nine clans. If he goes to Beijing to surrender and bite King Zhongshun, he may be guilty of meritorious deeds. Naturally, he will surely die. I am afraid that the offshoots of the Qi family will not die.

As for the words of "being more than a month away", it is a huge irony to Qi Chuan.These words are obviously saying: Jia Jing has been hiding near the Governor's Mansion for more than a month!Fortunately, I spent so much manpower to search, but I didn't even see a shadow!

Qi Chuan is able to be the governor of one place, so he naturally has his own skills and means. After a long time, he is also quite conceited.Conceited people often feel that the reputation and status they get are not worthy of their talents, so they think about improving themselves.

Qi Chuan Feijing and the emperor's lineage are also far away from the prince's lineage, so he secretly took refuge in King Zhongshun, hoping to win the merits of the dragon, and then he will also be named king and worship minister.When self-confident people take risks, they often enter into a fanatical gambler mentality: they obviously haven't won anything yet, but their minds are full of one step after success, and they automatically ignore the inevitable loss in case of failure.When the defeat was really tragic, it was too late to regret.Qi Chuan is such a person, but when he really loses everything, how can he be willing to let him just fall to the ground and die?

So, while Qi Chuan personally led people to look for Jia Jing like crazy, he tracked down the source of the letter.Qi Chuan also had some skills, following Jia Jing's handwritten letter, he found the station where Jia Jing sent the letter, which was the Liaocheng station.In other words, these days, Jia Jing once appeared in Liaocheng, where the investigation is the most stringent!Upon receiving the news, Qi Chuan almost vomited blood with anger.

Then I asked the post minister to ask, that letter was entrusted by the Liaocheng garrison at the post station more than a month ago. At that time, the garrison only mentioned May 29, so they sent the letter to the Governor's Mansion.Because the post minister didn't know that the letter was written by Jia Jing, he took the letter away according to the words of defense, and sent it out on May 29.

Qi Chuan led people to chase him to the Liaocheng Guard's mansion again. When the Liaocheng Guard saw the furious Qi Chuan, he was trembling with fear. After explaining for a long time, he realized that this Guard was a newcomer. gone.

Qi Chuan was like a mouse that had been walked by a cat enough, tired and tired, and scared to death.

Within a few days, the capital's order to lift the martial law in Shandong spread to Shandong, and Qi Chuan also had to lift the martial law in the whole of Shandong.But at this time, when he received the order to lift the martial law, Qi Chuan became more and more frightened: Jia Jing asked the former Liaocheng garrison to leave the book for him at the post station for more than a month, and the former Liaocheng garrison returned to his hometown that month; according to Jia Jing's plan, the station will remain I sent the book to myself, and within a few days, an order came from the capital to lift martial law throughout Shandong.This loop is intertwined, and every time point has been predicted by Jia Jing. This is like a chess game that Jia Jing has played countless times. I think it is complicated and difficult to understand, but everything is in Jia Jing's hands. What a talent!

Qi Chuan was originally a conceited person, but now he is completely discouraged. There are heaven and earth, and there are people in heaven and earth. With Jia Jing's intelligence, he can be a soldier of the Ministry of War with peace of mind, and he can be the governor of a place by himself. What is there to be dissatisfied with?Unfortunately, it was too late to understand.

So far, Liaocheng Wharf, which has been blocked for more than three months, has been opened to traffic. Merchants traveling from south to north were miserable at first, but now they applaud loudly.

The canal flows through Shandong, not to mention other land routes, but there are so many cargo ships passing through Shandong from south to north. Many of the merchants who can expand their business have backgrounds in the capital, and even with Jia Jing's identity, On board the ship of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who would dare to search and fail?

Qi Chuan was miserable, but he could only knock out his teeth and swallow his blood. On the surface, he didn't dare to search the city with great fanfare, but secretly sent minions to look for Jia Jing's whereabouts.

Before Jia Jing was found on the other side, Qi Chuan keenly sensed that there was danger approaching.Qi Chuan made a decisive decision and sent his cronies to send the two children away overnight. He took the evidence that he obeyed King Zhongshun, disguised himself, and went to Beijing overnight.Just as Jia Jingliu said in his letter: I advise you to surrender to the whole family.At this moment, Qi Chuan only wanted to leave a root for the Qi family by exposing King Zhongshun, even if it was a sideline.

It's just that Qi Chuan was killed by a group of killers as soon as he left Jinan City, and the correspondence between Huaizhong and King Zhongshun was taken away and burned.When Qi Chuan was about to die, his eyes widened, full of unwillingness, and he sought the tiger's skin and was finally buried in the tiger's mouth.

Looking into midsummer, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Jia Zhen's wife also gave birth to a baby boy in early June, who has not yet named it.According to Cui's intention, when Jia Jing came back, he would personally name his eldest grandson.Jia Lian calculated his age according to the original book, and this son should be Jia Rong.

Ever since Yushi Shenshan blocked Liaocheng for no reason, the news of Jia Jing's disappearance spread in the capital. Although Mrs. Cui had a premonition, she fainted from fright when she heard the news.

After Cui woke up, she cried for a while, and then went to Rongguo Mansion to ask Jia Daishan for advice.Jia Daishan's face was serious, and he said ruthlessly: "Nephew and daughter-in-law, don't worry, I'll send someone to look for it right away, and I will definitely bring back Jing'er in full and tail!"

Although Cui was full of pessimism, after hearing Jia Daishan's words, she felt a little more relaxed. She thanked Jia Daishan with gratitude and returned to Dongfu.

The next day, Jia Daishan ordered Jia Ding Nursing Home, and the soldiers went to look for Jia Jing in three groups, all the way south to Liaocheng, all the way to Zhengzhou, and the other one to Pingan Prefecture.

Even if Qi Chuan was killed to silence him, King Zhongshun did not dare to take it lightly, and kept an eye on the movements of Rongguo Mansion.Jia Daishan ruled out the three teams to support Jia Jing, so King Zhongshun would naturally send people to follow him.

Liaocheng is the shortest way out of Shandong and into Beijing; after stealing books from Jinan, go straight to the southwest via Heze and out of Shandong Province, you can go straight to Zhengzhou, and then return to Beijing by detour; Give this place to Rongguo Mansion to guard.Even if Jia Daishan returns to Beijing to be honored and raised, the current Pingan Prefecture Jiedushi is Jia Daishan's former ministry.No matter which way Jia Jing fled, as long as he entered Ping'an Prefecture and returned to Beijing, it would be the safest.

King Zhongshun didn't dare to let go of the three routes.

Not long after the three groups set off, the news of the flood in Shandong Governor's Mansion spread to the capital. It was said that everything was burned down by a fire. Shandong Governor Qi Chuan's family died in the fire, only a few servants escaped.

When Jia Daishan received the news, Jia Lian was also in the small study, Jia Daishan snorted coldly and said: "As expected of being a master of fine work, even if you are a prince, you are so vicious and unreliable in doing things."

Jia Lian thought for a moment and said, "It's a bit cruel to cut off the tail to survive, but it has to be done." As for the servants who escaped from the governor's mansion, they were probably King Zhongshun's eyeliner, and they were most likely the ones who set fire.

Jia Lian felt sad when he thought of how many people lost their lives in this way.After being silent for a while, the topic changed. Jia Lian blinked at Jia Daishan and said, "Spring blossoms and autumn fruits, grandfather, Uncle Jing will return in autumn. I hope Uncle Jing can come back before the eldest grandson's hundred days."

Jia Lian's words nearly dropped Jia Daishan's jaw. Although Jia Lian was smart, before Jia Jing set off, he spent the whole night secretly discussing in his small study. After making a plan, he considered many variables and devised contingency measures.Because the child went to bed early, and because Jia Daishan didn't want Jia Lian's intelligence to be exposed to too many people, Jia Lian was not allowed to participate in the secret meeting that day. How did Jia Lian guess Jia Jing's return date?
