Chapter 350 Bullying ‘Old and Young’ (Please Subscribe)
"Be careful, don't make any mistakes!"
Lin Zhixiao, who has never been very fond of talking, warned the sons of the Rongfu family who were gathered around him: "Anyone who insults and neglects the noble will either be sold directly to Ren Yazi, or be sent to Zhuangzi to work as a farmer!"
Seeing the disapproval looks on some of the children, he sneered and said, "Don't think I'm being alarmist. Many of the distinguished guests coming this time are heads of distinguished families. Even the old ladies don't dare to neglect them easily. You have How many heads are enough to deal with?"
"Manager Lin, don't scare us!"
A son of a family said disapprovingly: "How powerful is the Rong Mansion now?"
"Even if we make some mistakes, those guests will not care too much for the sake of the master of the house. Don't scare yourself!"
Although the other children did not speak, the sympathetic looks on their faces spoke volumes.
"Haha, Third Master Huan has the ability to make all the guests take a high look, do you have it?"
Lin Zhixiao sneered and said: "Don't pretend to be a big head. If something goes wrong, no master will come forward to guarantee you. It's better to be honest and calm!"
"Also, Ning Mansion will also come with us for this banquet. Don't let Ning Mansion's performance completely overwhelm us. By then, the old lady's face will be shameless, and she will not be soft no matter how kind she is. !”
After even intimidation, Lin Zhixiao could not help but secretly wipe the layer of hot sweat on his forehead after finally getting rid of all the children under his command.
The family in the mansion has a son who is becoming more and more arrogant and difficult to control!
Sometimes, he missed the time when Mistress Lian was in charge of the family. Although it is a bit stricter, it also saves a lot of unnecessary trouble. How could it be as chaotic as it is now?
Ever since Mrs. Wang returned to taking charge of the house, the atmosphere in the house has become even worse.
On the one hand, Mrs. Wang's own abilities are limited, and it is quite good to be able to barely maintain the situation. Not to mention that she was old at this time and had become powerless for the housekeeper.
However, she was not willing to share the housekeeping rights with her eldest daughter-in-law Li Wan!
There is a modern saying that makes sense: Power can never disappear, it can only be transferred!
In fact, Mrs. Wang has no energy to take care of the house, so the housekeeper and daughter-in-law around her have a greater say.
Especially the number one confidant of the Zhou Rui family, who is simply the number one person under Mrs. Wang. Even the top managers in the house have to stay away from her when they confront her.
Zhou Rui's family is not very capable. On the contrary, he is very selfish and has some problems with his character.
After she gained power, the internal affairs of the Rong Mansion gradually became chaotic, and problems began to arise in the atmosphere.
To sum up, the family members in the mansion are becoming more and more lazy. They are all arrogant and incompetent, as if they are the masters of Rong Mansion.
If he were not worried about an accident, Lin Zhixiao would not be willing to be a bad person. Before Jia Huan's knighthood banquet started, he would give a warning to his subordinates in the Rongfu family who had children.
He was really worried that something would happen and he would be implicated!
As Lin Zhixiao said, the quality of the distinguished guests who came to the door was much more exaggerated than before when the old lady celebrated her 80th birthday, especially the heads of the founding families, who did not come in person during the old lady’s birthday banquet. , all sent their wives or juniors.
Fortunately, what we worried about did not happen!
The children of the Rongfu family are all snobbish, which has a good point, that is, they know the high and low.
In front of the head of the founding noble family, the son of the Rongfu family who was responsible for serving did not dare to neglect and behaved very well, as if he was a different person.
In addition, Mr. Zheng Er personally came to receive him, which was also one of the main reasons why the children of the family were honest and peaceful.
Jia Huan didn't come forward. He didn't like this kind of false politeness!
Mr. Zheng Er and the old lady didn't care. They were naturally much more tolerant towards young heroes like Jia Huan. This was human nature.
Besides, what's wrong with the young man being proud and arrogant?
If Jia Huan behaves in a very humane and worldly manner, that would be called terrifying, and no one would dare to have a close friendship with him.
After the sumptuous banquet, the founding fathers stayed with a tacit understanding.
Of course, the wives they brought with them did not leave, but were chatting and joking with the old lady in the back house.
At the same time, a group of Jia Huan's colleagues in the Beijing camp and his generals also stayed.
In short, it creates a sense for outsiders that Jia Huan is about to do something big.
In fact, he does want to do big things!
The place where I talked with the distinguished bosses was Mengpo Zhai, the big study room of Mr. Zheng.
In fact, even inviting people is in the name of Mr. Zheng.
They are all heads of the Xungui family, so no one will suspect anything in a short period of time.
Ask yourself, if it were the other noble families holding a banquet and many noble bosses came to visit, they would definitely invite them to get together for a while and talk. It is normal.
In order to avoid suspicion, I don’t dare to hold a small gathering in such an open and aboveboard way!
In fact, Mengpo Zhai's small gathering did not last long before it ended.
When many nobles and dignitaries left, they did not show any unusual expressions.
They are all old foxes, how can they expose their true mentality and let outsiders see the clues?
But in my heart, there were so many waves that I couldn't help but be shocked!
There was no way they could not help but ignore what Jia Huan told them, and even felt worried about it.
At Mengpo Zhai, Jia Huan was not polite at all. He directly stated his worries and remedial ideas, saying that he needed the support of many family heads.
It is related to the fate of the entire Founding Group in the future. Which noble man dares not to care about it?
Jia Huan's reminder was like a wake-up call, waking up most of the noble men.
Indeed, once Nan'an County Prince falls, they will be the meat on the chopping board from now on.
Such a situation is definitely not something they would like to see, and they must find a way to save it.
Jia Huan is willing to rush directly to the southwest for rescue, and he has shown sufficient strength. After careful consideration, he is really the best candidate.
However, Jia Huan needed them to come up with tangible benefits, which made them hesitate.
They knew in their hearts that this was Jia Huan forcing them to hand over their names!
It's either money, food, or people. It always has to be the same thing. Otherwise, how can Jia Huan rest assured? If there are benefits in the future, how can he take them to play with him?
Making a decision is easy, but after making a decision, you must be responsible!
There are some things that, once involved, it is not that easy to get off the ship.
In addition, Jia Huan also raised a more troublesome issue, that is, he hopes that everyone can put pressure on the Nan'an County Prince's Palace so that the crown prince can ascend to the throne as soon as possible and contribute resources in the southwest.
This is another troublesome thing. I always feel like I am bullying orphans and widowed mothers!
It's not that he feels pity for Nan'an County Prince's Mansion, but he has a feeling of sadness that a thing hurts its own kind.
Who knows if something happens to my family in the future, or if it falls into decline, something like this will happen to me. Thinking about it makes me feel hard to feel good.
But sometimes, evil people have to do what they have to do, unless they are willing to see Nan'an County Prince's huge interests in the southwest go to waste.
One thing Jia Huan said makes sense, that is, the worst move made by the Nan'an County Prince's Palace was to firmly hold on to the defeated and captured Nan'an County Prince, as if without him, the Nan'an County Prince's Palace would be doomed. .
How could it be that exaggerated?
Prince Nan'an is in his prime of life in his early thirties, and he is the only legitimate son of his generation!
But there are already several children under his knees, the oldest one is about ten years old, and he happens to be the eldest son, and has been canonized by the imperial court as the crown prince!
After the defeat of the Southwest, the best thing for the Nan'an County Prince's Palace to do is to directly let the prince take over the throne!
Apart from anything else, whether you want to rescue the Prince of Nan'an County or minimize the losses in the southwest lair, it is a normal operation.
At that time, the Founding Group will definitely provide full support.
Of course, while providing support, we will definitely arrange for close friends to come and get a share of the pie.
There is a saying that goes well: Don’t let the rich water flow to outsiders!
The idea was very beautiful, but unfortunately the reality did not develop according to their thoughts.
Princess Nan'an really loved her son very much and had no intention of giving up on the defeated and captured Prince Nan'an.
The old lady has already sent a message to Jia Huan, and she took the initiative to come to persuade her but failed!
Then there is nothing more to say, just ask the Founding Group to put pressure collectively!
Damn it, it’s not like he didn’t rescue the defeated and captured Nan’an County King. I don’t know what the Nan’an old lady’s plan was?
What made Jia Huan even more unhappy and even unacceptable was that the Nan'an County Prince's Palace actually proposed a rescue plan that was quite unreliable and could even be said to be embarrassing.
Similar to the plot of the original novel Red Mansions, the idea put forward by the Nan'an County Prince's Palace is to rescue the defeated and captured Nan'an County Prince through marriage!
It’s simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!
What kind of brain is this that can come up with such a stupid decision?
Haven't you noticed that the current emperor cherishes feathers very much?
Something as embarrassing as getting married is something that will be recorded in the history books. How could you agree to it so easily now?
To put it bluntly, if he really did this today, rumors might spread that he was not even as good as Emperor Chongzhen of the previous Ming Dynasty and had no backbone at all.
This is no joke!
Although it is not clear, why did Jin Jin finally approve of such a method to save people in the original work of Red Mansions?
However, the Nan'an County Prince's Palace chose Jia Huan's sister Tanchun to send out as the 'princess' for the marriage!
Thinking about such a thing makes me feel sick!
If it were Jia Huan sitting on the throne of the current emperor, he would definitely settle the score later.
The Nan'an County Prince's Mansion at that time did not have the same confidence as today!
The final result must be that the Nan'an County Prince's Palace is completely destroyed. How can it be so easy to bear the raging anger of an emperor?
It can only be said that some people’s brain circuits are really incomprehensible to normal people!
Jia Huan's proposal was quite timely. Within a few days, all the distinguished officials who attended the party agreed to Jia Huan's terms of assistance. They had no choice but to agree.
Soon, the wives of the founder of the country rushed to the gloomy Nan'an County Prince's Mansion together.
