Chapter 323: Sacrifice One's Relatives for the Sake of Justice

There are rumors in the palace.

It is said that the eldest daughter of your majesty, Princess Yuling, is deeply loved by the Queen Mother.

Before the Jia family's imperial concubine's breast milk was full for a month, she was taken away to raise her personally.

Emperor Li Zhao did not say anything about this matter, and the palace maids and eunuchs naturally did not dare to gossip about it.

But the palace people can see that the emperor loves his eldest daughter.

Almost every three days, he would go to the Cining Palace to visit the eldest princess.

The less than one-year-old Princess Li Tang was like a finely carved jade person, crystal clear, warm and lovely.

She was wearing the most delicate Shu brocade fabric and a pair of small tiger-head shoes on her feet. Under the frightened gaze of the palace maids, she began to learn from Handan.

Every step she took seemed trembling, as if she might lose her balance at any time.

The palace maids did not dare to be careless at all. If the eldest princess accidentally fell, I am afraid that everyone present would die.

However, today, with the Queen Mother and Imperial Concubine Jia waiting, the palace maids could feel more at ease.

Jia Yuanchun still had mixed feelings when she saw her nominal daughter.

For her, she had known that the palace was as deep as the sea, but she didn't expect to learn some of the royal secrets, which made her more and more panicked.

"Your Majesty is here!"

Just when Concubine Jia was worried, the nominal master of the harem came.

"Your Majesty."

Concubine Jia suppressed some strange feelings in her heart and bowed.

"Hehe, my beloved concubine, please stand up."

Li Zhao was gentle and stretched out his hand to signal Jia Yuanchun to stand up.

Queen Mother Cai Wenji smiled slightly, but only looked at Princess Yuling.

After greeting, Li Zhao carefully picked up the eldest princess and teased her.

Perhaps it was because she often saw Li Zhao these days, or Princess Yuling felt that the person in front of her had a good smell, so she giggled.

Wang Chengen looked at the eldest princess who was also restless in Li Zhao's arms, with a smile on his face.

Speaking of which, the queen is about to be pregnant for nine months and will give birth soon.

If she can give birth to a baby boy, the position of Queen Wei will be extremely stable, and I can also build relationships in advance.

After all, being on good terms with the nobles in the palace is the way for eunuchs like Wang Chengen to survive.

"Wow~"

The princess bit Li Zhao's dragon robe on his chest, and her saliva wet it.

The people present did not notice that the princess's small mouth that made a sucking motion made Li Zhao's body tremble slightly.

The princess, who had not sucked out food for a long time, was unhappy.

She started to cry loudly.

The crying of this little ancestor caused the palace people to be in a hurry again.

Let's not talk about the things in the palace.

For the people in the capital, the Shandong bandit rebellion is too far away for them.

You have to know that many people in ancient times would never leave the surrounding areas of hundreds of miles in their lives.

It's nothing more than talking about the bandit rebellion heard from others.

As for some ladies from wealthy families, they would not even know such news.

Just like Lin Daiyu.

Unlike the original plot, after her father died, she lived in Jia's house and lived a lonely life.

Now Lin Ruhai is living well and is quite favored by the emperor.

Lin Ruhai also knows that he owes his daughter these years, and he arranges the expenses of the house in the best way.

Even the rule that unmarried girls are not allowed to show their faces at will is not a big deal for Lin Daiyu.

"Miss, are you going to visit Lin's house today?" Zijuan asked cautiously.

After getting a positive answer from her own girl, Zijuan said that she would arrange the carriage, but she was complaining in her heart.

I believe that Bao Erye, who was born with a jade in his mouth, may not have a chance in this life.

Originally, in Zijuan's view, Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu were a good match.

But when Zijuan left Jia's house, she realized that her vision was shallow.

You know, Lin Ruhai's family management style is not comparable to Jia's.

After a comparison, Zijuan suddenly found that the Jia Mansion seemed not very clean.

Even Lin Ruhai was unwilling to let his daughter go to the Jia Mansion more often, which seemed to be alienated.

Even if Jia Yuanchun got the position of imperial concubine, Lin Ruhai only sent the housekeeper to deliver gifts and never visited again.

Thinking of Lin Ruhai's attitude towards his daughter going to Lin Chen's house, Zijuan understood.

Obviously.

Compared with that Bao Erye, Lin Ruhai is more inclined to entrust his daughter to Lin Chenjia.

Zijuan, as Lin Daiyu's confidant, will definitely be a maid in the future, so she will naturally take action.

Lin Daiyu didn't know what her maid was thinking.

She went to Lin Chen's house because she had a good chat with Wang Yuyan and other beautiful women, and they felt like they were old friends and sisters.

In addition.

Lin Daiyu also wanted to learn about Lin Chen's situation from them.

It is the duty of a general to fight on the battlefield.

She could only hope that the other party would come back safely.

However, Lin Daiyu heard something today that made her curious.

"Sister Xue, will this matter affect your brother?" Lin Daiyu asked Xue Baoqin.

Xue Baoqin knew that the other party was concerned about her, and smiled gently and said, "It doesn't matter. My brother and I have already separated from the master's family."

Separated, that is, not interfering with each other.

But Xue Baoqin thought of Xue Pan and couldn't help shaking her head slightly.

She had seen the other party.

This person has a dull personality and is quite stupid in doing things.

Xue Ke was also unwilling to deal with him.

But unexpectedly, Xue Pan was guilty of beating someone to death!

Not only that.

The Xue family in Jinling was also investigated and bribed the Jinling prefect to try to suppress the murder case.

But he didn't expect that someone would find a handle and poke a hole.

The prefect of Jinling and the Xue family were both put on fire because of this incident, and they were very distressed.

What's even more surprising is that.

The person who uncovered this unjust case was none other than Jia Zheng!

As the father of Jia Yuanchun, Jia Zheng became a relative and had an extraordinary status.

Therefore, in order to show his kindness and honor, Li Zhao directly promoted Jia Zheng from the sixth grade of the Ministry of Industry to the inspector of Jiangnan.

This position is a free position.

But Jia Zheng was a more sincere person, and he immediately took office. Everywhere he went, he had to check the officials under his rule.

After going round and round, Jia Zheng came to Jinling.

It's funny to say that.

The current prefect of Jinling, Jia Yucun, is a member of the Jia family. If he can return to the high position of prefect, the Jia family will naturally contribute.

Therefore, he regarded Jia Zheng as his backer and entertained him well.

This was revealed "accidentally".

He originally wanted to show his favor to Jia Zheng by helping the Xue family cover up the murder case.

After all, who doesn’t know the close relationship between the Xue family and the Jia family?

No idea.

Jia Zheng was furious when he heard this and captured Jia Yucun on the spot.

So this happened, Jia Zheng's righteousness to destroy his relatives.

When outsiders asked, they all said that Jia Zheng had the style of a famous official in ancient times, and regarded national law as more important than anything else.

Jia Zheng became famous as a result.

However.

This is a pain for the Xue family, Jia Yucun, and Jia She who received the money.

Jia She never expected that Jia Zheng would be so pedantic.

Now, there is quite a commotion in the Jia Mansion because of this incident.

It is said that Mrs. Xue, who was in charge of the Xue family, came to Beijing in a hurry and brought a lot of gold and silver with her.

Looking at the posture, it was just to settle the matter.

After all, she is still a woman.

It is a shady thing for a wealthy businessman to use gold and silver to suppress a murder case.

Now that Jia Zheng has been exposed, who dares to pour muddy water?

After going round and round, Aunt Xue finally begged Jia Mu.
