Prince Jin finally realized how busy his good steward was because of the two corpses of servants.
Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, the result was still very good.
only……
"Where is Hua Zifang buried now? Was she really married to a ghost?"
"yes!"
The housekeeper felt that he had done a good job. "It just so happened that there was a family named Wang in Changyang Town who wanted to arrange a ghost marriage for their daughter, so I asked Zhou Ze and the others to sell her over there."
King Jin: “…”
"The ghost marriage was held in Changyang Town with great ceremony."
The housekeeper said, "Master Wang has four sons and only one daughter. Hua Zifang is also very pretty. Master Wang is very satisfied with her."
At this point, he even smiled, "I think it won't take a few days for Shuntian Prefecture to find out."
This has nothing to do with their Prince Jin's Mansion.
"...Good! Good job."
King Jin was very happy that Dong Xiaoquan could be humiliated. "Let everyone go to the account office to collect their rewards."
"yes!"
The butler's voice was a little loud with excitement.
Ever since the God of Wealth Lu was snatched away by the emperor, the palace has been in a slump and no one has received any rewards.
Now it has finally started again.
"Let's pay attention to Rongguo Mansion later."
Prince Jin waved his hand and said as if he didn't care: "Aren't they helping the Hua family to report to the police? If things really get out of hand, you can help the Wang family ask the Hua family for some betrothal gifts."
Since the Hua family didn’t have any, they would naturally go looking for their daughter who was sold in the Rongguo Mansion.
"By the way, you should also check out the daughter of the Hua family. If she can be used, it would be best to keep her in your hands."
"……yes!"
Is the prince still keeping an eye on the Jia family? The housekeeper felt a little bitter.
The Jia family and the retired emperor have a special relationship, and the emperor has gained many benefits from the Jia family. It is obvious that they are royalists.
The prince keeps nagging me, which means he is forcing me to fight to the death with the Jin Palace! I have suffered many losses, why don't I learn my lesson?
As he carefully withdrew, he didn't know that the Prince of Jin was holding the letter from Jiangnan and his eyebrows were raised higher and higher the more he read it.
Bang! The noise in the study made all the waiters in the courtyard turn pale.
Every time the prince loses his temper, someone gets unlucky! I hope it won't be my turn this time.
When everyone looked at each other, they were a little considerate.
…
In Rongguo Mansion, Xiren, who had been secretly heartbroken for her brother, did not expect that there was a ray of hope.
Her brother was stolen away for a ghost marriage.
This this...
Seeing her uncle's happy face when he brought the message, she didn't know whether she should be happy or confused.
Her mother kept complaining that her brother died before he got married.
She should be happy now, but her brother's death...is it really normal? This strange incident soon spread among the servants of Rongguo Mansion.
Qingping knew that their wives were also concerned about this matter, so she quickly shared this big news with Shen Ning.
In the eyes of outsiders, the deceased Hua Zifang was lucky enough to have a wife after his death.
But Shen Ning knew that was not the case.
There was something wrong with Hua Zifang's death.
"Find someone to investigate the Wang family."
Shen Ning thought for a moment and said, "Please pay more attention to the Hua family. If Xiren leaves the house again in the future..., let me know."
"yes!"
Although I don’t know why, the lady looks very serious.
Qingping quickly agreed.
"Madam," Qingzhu looked at her expression and said, "Xiren was bought from outside. If you think she is not suitable, I will tell the Second Madam..."
“No need!”
Shen Ning shook her head and sighed, "I didn't say anything wrong with her, I just thought it was a bit weird."
Hua Zifang's life is gone, if she moves again...
Although I don't like Xiren in the book, I can't even tolerate her being around Baoyu.
The clan rules have been changed.
If she still climbs into bed and Baoyu still does the same, that is their fate and everything will be done according to the clan rules.
She won't have to care about Baoyu anymore.
"What do the people in Shuntian Prefecture say? What do they think about Xiren's brother's death?"
"That... I haven't heard of it."
Qing Ping shook her head, "I'll ask someone to ask later."
"Um!"
Shen Ning nodded.
At this time, Jia Zhen came over with a beaming look on his face. "Mother, I just received news that cousin Lan Zhi is coming back to Beijing. The emperor is also going to reward meritorious officials. Uncle Shi Ding of the Shi family has been named Marquis Zhongjing and will be returning to Beijing soon."
Shen Ning: “…”
She was not surprised at all that Shi Ding was conferred the title of Marquis Zhongjing.
In Dream of the Red Chamber, he obtained the title of Marquis on his own initiative.
But Lan Zhi...
There is no news about her in the book.
"Are you sure your cousin Lanzhi is going back to Beijing? When will she arrive?"
"Sure!"
Jia Zhen said, "Cousin Lanzhi is on the first list of recipients."
Although the Tatars had retreated, the officers of each garrison still had to take turns on duty there to prevent a surprise attack by the Tatars.
"Although she was not the first contributor to the recovery of Hetao, she was still ranked in the top five. General Jiang personally recommended the credit for her."
Jia Zhen couldn't help but be excited.
Their Jia family left the army, but my cousin also has Jia family blood.
Later he can go into the ancestral hall and say goodbye to his ancestors.
"My son heard that the Imperial City's Imperial Guards are also going to form a female army. Now that my cousin is back, maybe she won't have to leave."
Shen Ning: “…”
Is this good news? After joining the Imperial Guard, it seems that he was transferred to the central government, but...
Thinking back to the girl who said she wanted to avenge her father and brothers, Shen Ning sighed softly, "It's better to stay outside. Although it's harder outside, Lan Zhi won't have to deal with so many people."
There are too many restrictions on women in this world.
The people in the border town are tough and they tend to recognize people who have real skills.
"Just listen to this, there's no need to ask too much."
Shen Ning told her son, "Everything will be decided after Lan Zhi arrives in Beijing. It depends on what she chooses."
"……yes!"
Jia Zhen is used to listening to his mother.
"It's the historian..."
Shen Ning thought for a moment and said, "Shi Ding will be made a marquis, so the Shi family will definitely treat us to a feast."
She didn't want to go out, but she probably couldn't refuse the Shi family's visit.
"When will the female guard you mentioned last time arrive?"
You only have one life.
Prince Jin is narrow-minded and might even cause trouble for her.
"Ah, almost there."
Jia Zhen quickly calculated the time in his mind, "It was agreed that she would enter the mansion on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month at the latest."
"Okay, when they come, be polite to me."
"How can I be rude, son?"
Since it concerns his mother's safety, Jia Zhen is very concerned.
He also asked the escort company to transfer 100 taels of silver in advance so that they could settle down.
"Don't worry!"
No matter how old he is, his mother is always worried and always has to tighten her belt for him.
Jia Zhen was also helpless.
He was a bad kid when he was little, but he has become a better person now!
"But Cousin Lanzhi is coming to Beijing. What you promised her..."
Jia Zhen hesitated for a moment, "Second Uncle Zheng's butt is better now. If he is beaten again, do you think the old lady would be willing?" (End of this chapter)
