Xue Mansion, the sun is setting in the west.
In the inner house, the three members of the Xue family were looking sad because they had received many greeting cards today.
These greetings were all sent by the local magistrate of Jinling. The contents were concise and concise, and they all advised Xue Pan to withdraw his petition.
While giving good advice, the invitation also contained a warning, saying not to see each other in the future.
Most of these officials were sixth or seventh grade, and Xue Pan was not afraid of them on weekdays. After all, his family had connections in the court.
However, this time was different. When he stood on the opposite side of the Jinling officialdom, the nature was completely different.
He has someone in the court, and there are so many officials but no one.
"What should we do?" Aunt Xue looked pale, obviously frightened.
Faced with this situation, Baochai was powerless and could only comfort her mother to be at ease, as the matter was not yet irreversible.
"The Director of Ceremonies sent a message again today, asking us to buy food and weapons as soon as possible. No matter how difficult it is, everything comes together."
It's okay that Xue Pan didn't speak, but he exploded as soon as he opened his mouth. After hearing Aunt Xue's roar, she scolded him again on the spot.
Xue Pan knew that he was being unreasonable, so he could only endure it silently, thinking about how to escape.
Everyone in the Xue family was frowning. Hu Jinan, who was also a party involved, was also borrowing money at this moment. Wine relieves sorrow.
He never expected that the Xue family would sue him, and he was not greedy for his family’s money.
Because the information was not transparent, Hu Jinan did not know the inside story. He planned to go to Xue's house to find out, but unfortunately Xue Pan didn't see him at all.
"Sir, the Chief Secretary, Mr. Qian is here to visit"
Hearing the report from the servant, Hu Jinan felt a little confused. He thought that he had no friendship with Qian Ruiming. At this time, the other party came over. Very unusual.
"Please come to the front hall to serve tea. I will come over after I change my clothes."
"Yes"
When Hu Jinan came to the front hall, he saw Qian Ruimingzheng. He stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the paintings on the wall.
"I came late to my humble position, please don't blame me"
"Sir Hu, this painting of picking chrysanthemums under the east fence has the charm of Tao Yuanming, but why haven't you signed it?"
Qian Ruiming turned around and looked at Hu Jinan with confusion.
While asking Qian Ruiming to sit down, Hu Jinan said at the same time, "To be honest, this is a casual work of a lower official, just to decorate the facade. Won't signing it just make you smile?"
After sitting down, Qian Ruiming motioned for Hu Jinan to sit down as well, and said at the same time, "Decorating the door with your own paintings, Mr. Hu is really a breath of fresh air."
Although this is his own home, Hu Jinan still looks particularly humble. , sitting in the guest's seat in a daze.
He knew that Qian Ruiming's visit must have a deep meaning, so he followed the topic and said, "Even so, there are villains who are causing trouble and pouring dirty water on the humble official."
"You I have also heard about the incident. This is indeed an unforeseen disaster. Jinling QianAll your colleagues are aggrieved for you."
"The world is declining, and the prince has dismissed me from my humble position. I am afraid that this court appearance will be inevitable."
Hu Jinan's speech progressed very quickly. He mentioned interrogation without any foreshadowing, just to get a feel for Qian Ruiming and see if he could avoid interrogation.
After seeing through his mind, Qian Ruiming said slowly, "What happened this time. , it’s not as simple as you think, your case involves the entire Jinling officialdom.”
Next, Qian Ruiming explained the details of the matter in detail, and Hu Jinan fully understood the situation.
"So, you must go to court for this case and confront the Crown Prince openly and openly"
"Behind you, there are many colleagues in the Jinling officialdom and Prince Rui. We may not lose this lawsuit." Qian Ruiming Slowly narrated.
After listening to all the analysis, Hu Jinan finally understood the situation. At this moment, he felt both relieved and uneasy.
Although there would be many people helping him, as a veteran in officialdom. As a veteran, he is well aware of the risks of this lawsuit.
As a spokesperson, he is likely to become a victim regardless of his own victory.
Hu Jinan has no choice but to let the general trend push him forward.
"Sir, have you ever been to the Xue Mansion?"
Qian Ruiming said calmly, "The Xue family is following. You still have no choice, but we have put pressure on him, so the Xue family will not be too embarrassed."
But these words are hard to convince Hu Jinan, because as a chess piece, he can understand Xue better now. Family situation.
Next, the two discussed the details of the trial.
The inner city of Luoyang, the sacred capital, is where the powerful gather. >
The residences of royal nobles and high-ranking officials occupy all parts of the inner city, including the Rongguo Mansion, one of the Four Kings and Eight Princes.
Under the setting sun, the Rongguo Mansion is quiet and peaceful, with servants. The maids were busy walking around, taking care of the food and daily life of the masters of the palace.
In the second room on the east side of Rongxi Hall, there was a middle-aged man in a brocade robe, frowning at the letter.
p>
This person is the person in charge of the palace, Jia Zheng, who is currently a member of the Ministry of Industry. Sitting next to him is Mrs. Wang.
“This beast really ate a bear. I was so scared"
"Who is he? He actually offended the Thirteenth Master. This bastard is not looking for death."
When Mrs. Wang heard her husband yelling in anger, she didn't dare to After answering, she could only wait silently for her husband to calm down.
Even she did not dare to speak. Sanchun and Jia Huan, who were sitting in the room, were even more silent at the moment.
" You all go out."
Hearing this, the four people in Yingchun felt as if they were being amnesty. They stood up, saluted and left in a hurry.
After her husband's anger had subsided, Mrs. Wang spoke. "Pan'er, this kid is really messing around. Master, you have to find a way. After all, my sister is the only son."
"You are still messing around."I think this is nonsense." Jia Zheng's suppressed anger is now burning again.
"He is seeking death. It is not enough to harm the Xue family, and now he wants to harm us."
"The Thirteenth Master didn't pursue the matter, so why should I hold on to this matter?" Mrs. Wang said with dissatisfaction in her tone.
"The Thirteenth Master chopped him with a knife, but our family was left alone. "Seeing that his wife was really stupid, Jia Zheng didn't want to say anything more to her, so he got up and walked outside.
This matter involved so much that even Jia Zheng couldn't make up his mind, so He wanted to go to Wang's house.
After her husband left, Mrs. Wang became more and more angry, and finally said angrily, "Humph, it's just that I don't like it. Why bother talking about Pan'er?"
Besides, after Sanchun and others left Rongxi Hall, Jia Huan returned to Aunt Zhao's residence, while Sanchun rushed to Jia Mu's courtyard.
It was already lunch time. Seeing that the three granddaughters hadn't come yet, Jia Mu had sent people to urge her several times.
When she learned that she was in Jia Zheng's office for training, Jia Mu gave up and ordered the maids to postpone the announcement. After dinner, I started talking to Baoyu and Daiyu.
"The girl is here"
The ladies outside shouted, and soon they saw the three springs coming hand in hand and standing in front of Jia Mu. After greetings, everyone took their seats, with Jia's mother at the top, followed by Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu on the left and right.
Both of them were only eleven or twelve years old and still in good health. He's not grown up yet, he looks like a child, and he doesn't take up much space sitting beside Jia Mu.
"Why did I keep you so long today?"
Jia Baoyu couldn't help but ask, standing aside. The petite Lin Daiyu also looked curious, hoping to hear something new.
Tanchun replied, "Auntie Xue of Jinling sent a letter saying that the eldest brother of the Xue family was fighting for slaves in the street. "I was beaten up by the Thirteenth Master"
"The Thirteenth Master" Jia Baoyu looked confused.
If it were any other descendant of the Honorable Family, he would be confused as soon as he heard these three words. He knew who it was, but the Jia family didn't have such tutors.
On the other hand, Jia's mother, who was sitting at the top, frowned, waiting for Tanchun to continue.
