This is an anti-theft badge.
Jia Tanchun glanced at her indifferently.
Concubine Zhao shrank back in fear.
She didn't dare to say anything else.
Everyone listened to Jia Tanchun's words.
They were also puzzled.
Yes, why was Jia Baoyu lying on the spring bench?
Why was she carried back?
The Imperial Physician who followed them stepped forward.
He explained the reason to Jia Zheng.
Jia Zheng listened.
His expression suddenly changed.
He pinched the board and muttered, "Nothing can be accomplished without rules. Injury is not an excuse.
She can't be punished if she does something wrong. "
The Imperial Physician sighed and said coldly, "If this heavy board really hits her, her body may not be able to withstand it.
Forgive me for offending you, but if Jia Gong really wants to fight, I can't guarantee that I won't be able to send off my own child. "
Hearing this, Jia Zheng panicked. "Is it that serious?"
Wang Jiren glanced at Jia Baobao.
He said, "Your son was born weak. If you don't take good care of him,
He may … "
He wanted to say something but stopped.
But it gave people endless imagination.
Jia Zheng was shocked.
"She jumps up and down all day long.
Every time I hit her,
She runs faster than a rabbit.
Is this called being born weak? "
Wang Jiren opened his eyes and said, "Yes.
Yes, some people only look strong on the surface, but they are very weak inside. "
He gave Jia Baobao a look.
Jia Baobao immediately covered his mouth and coughed violently.
Jia Zheng put down the board and looked embarrassed. He said to himself, "What should I do?"
Although Jia Baoyu was naughty among his children, he still had high hopes for her.
Jia Tanchun interceded for Baoyu. "Master, let's forget it."
Jia Zheng hesitated and looked back at Jia Huan.
Jia Huan lowered his head and remained silent.
When Concubine Zhao saw that Jia Zheng was going to let Jia Baoyu go, she refused to let him go.
She tugged at Jia Huan's sleeve and said loudly, "Master, quickly take a look. Huan 'er is injured in more than one place!"
As she spoke, she didn't care about anything else. She tore open Jia Huan's robes, revealing his waist and abdomen.
A mosaic shyly covered his chest. Jia Baobao could only see his flexible waist that belonged to a young man. There was also a large bruise on his waist and abdomen, which looked extremely terrifying.
Concubine Zhao threw a tantrum and howled, "Master, please save Huan'er. If Huan'er continues to be tortured like this, I'm afraid he will die in Jia Prefecture!"
These words …
Lady Wang glared fiercely at Concubine Zhao.
Concubine Zhao guiltily turned her face away, but her crying became louder. It was as if she was wailing at a funeral.
Jia Zheng sternly reprimanded her with a straight face, "Nonsense. I'm in charge here. I don't believe that anyone dares to beat Huai Geer to death!"
As Jia Zheng spoke, he glanced at Lady Wang.
Lady Wang suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
She didn't expect that after being married for so many years, Jia Zheng actually didn't believe her at all. He even protected such a shameless and narrow-minded person!
Jia Zheng turned his head and glared at Baoyu. Seeing that she was still smiling, he raised his hand in exasperation and was about to give her a good beating.
A dignified voice sounded from afar.
"Stop!"
Everyone turned their heads. It was none other than the Dowager Duchess of Jia Prefecture.
Lady Jia walked over, supported by a beautiful woman in red who looked like a celestial concubine, with the help of a dragon-headed walking stick.
Jia Zheng immediately put down his hand and said, "Mother, why are you here?"
Lady Jia snorted coldly, "What are you doing? Do you really want to beat Baoyu to death? I only care about this one grandson of mine, but you want to beat him to death. Is this what you call being a filial mother? I'll say it here. If you don't like Baoyu, I'll take him back to my hometown. You can live with your concubines! What the hell? She's a bad influence on a good child! "
Jia Zheng was frightened by Lady Jia's words. If Lady Jia really did that, he would be accused of being "unfilial" and would have no chance of promotion.
Jia Zheng hurriedly knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Mother, you don't have to do this!"
Listening to their conversation, Jia Baobao stared attentively at the beauty who was supporting Lady Jia.
That beauty had a pair of sharp eyes and a face like a peach blossom. There was a hint of poison in his vigorous beauty. Just looking at him was like being stung by his beauty. He was like a bright red poisonous snake or a dark purple scorpion. He was poisonous, beautiful, and demonic.
The beauty caught her gaze and smiled. That smile made her feel as if there were little insects crawling around her body.
Jia Baobao couldn't help but ask the System, "Who is this person?"
The System said, "Isn't that the Lian Young Mistress Wang Xifeng that Lady Wang asked you to learn from?"
Jia Baobao gasped, "That's the one that the Jia Lian couldn't beat even with a sword? Amazing! "
Wang Xifeng saw that the atmosphere between Lady Jia and Jia Zheng was tense. He immediately laughed and said, "Ancestor, please calm down. Why do you have to do this? From what I see, this is just a joke between children. When children were young, they were very tough. Just like my brothers, they often rolled in the mud and fought with each other. They fought until the sky was dark and the earth was dark. Even their heads were broken. After a day, heh, they were as good as one person again. Besides, which family of brothers doesn't fight? The more they fight, the better they get. Children have short tempers and don't hold grudges. "
After hearing Wang Xifeng's words, Jia Zheng's face slowly relaxed. He was ready to let him off the hook.
Concubine Zhao didn't let him off. She suddenly said, "Didn't Master punish Bao Erye to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors? Why did he bring him here from Ningguo Province? It seems that he didn't take Master's words to heart. "
Concubine Zhao's words suddenly reminded Jia Zheng.
Jia Zheng fiercely swung the wooden plank and smashed it on the bench under Jia Bao Bao's body.
"I asked you to come to my study this morning to test your poetry. Why didn't you come with the excuse of changing your clothes? You even ran away and disappeared without a trace! Tell me! What exactly did you do? "
Concubine Zhao snorted and said, "What could I have done? I probably went to have a secret rendezvous with some servant girl or manservant. Everyone in the two manors knows what kind of person Bao Erye is. "
"Shut up!" Jia Taijun hit the ground with his dragon-headed cane.
Concubine Zhao trembled and shut her mouth.
Jia Zheng glared at Jia Baoyu with hatred and anger.
He thought to himself that he must punish her this time. If he didn't punish her, she wouldn't know what was right and what was wrong.
"Am I late?" A gentle voice sounded.
Qin Keqing stepped into the Chuihua Gate and looked around at everyone. He smiled at Jia Zheng and said, "Can you listen to me?"
Jia Zheng coughed softly. Although he didn't know Qin Keqing's true identity, he knew that his influence was extraordinary. Those people in Ningguo Province treated him with caution.
He couldn't ignore Qin Keqing's request.
Qin Keqing saw Jia Zheng's expression and knew what he was thinking.
Qin Keqing smiled and said, "The truth is not as dirty as some people think. Uncle Bao, why don't you tell us yourself why you went to Ningguo Province?"
Jia Baoyu said honestly, "I heard that Jia Rong was sick, so I wanted to visit him."
Qin Keqing sighed and said, "Confucius said, 'What you believe in is the eyes, but the eyes are not trustworthy; what you rely on is the heart, but the heart is not enough.' It's not easy to understand people. What crime did Baoyu commit?"
Those who understood this sentence couldn't help but sigh for Jia Baoyu.
Qin Keqing said again, "Uncle Bao was injured in order to save Baoyu. If you really hit Baoyu, how can the people of Ningguo Province live with it?"
At this point, the incident of Jia Zheng hitting Baoyu had escalated to the level of being incompatible with Ningguo Province.
Jia Zheng naturally knew what was more important and what was more important.
He glanced at Baoyu and saw that Baoyu was lying on the bench. His face was pale and he looked listless, but there was still an innocent smile in his eyes.
Jia Zheng thought to himself, "I wanted to hit him, but he didn't hate me at all. It's clear that he's kind and filial."
He thought for a while and said, "Forget it. Since you all said that he's the Yan Hui and Min Ziqian of the present age, then this beating is unnecessary. However, he still needs to be punished. Let's punish him by making him kneel in the ancestral hall. Let him wake up and don't ruin the reputation of Rongguo Province. "
When everyone saw this, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Only Concubine Zhao looked dissatisfied.
Concubine Zhao still wanted to say something, but Jia Tanchun beside him coughed loudly.
Concubine Zhao glanced at Jia Tanchun cautiously and didn't say anything in the end.
Wang Xifeng laughed and said, "Even if you want to kneel, you can't do it like this. At least change your clothes and treat your wounds before you go."
Qin Keqing walked to Jia Baobao's side and slowly rolled up Jia Baobao's sleeves. He saw that her white jade-like arm was bruised and swollen. It looked very serious.
Qin Keqing said, "You all only saw Jia Huan's wounds, but you didn't see that Baoyu's injuries are even more serious."
Lady Wang cried out, "My son," and collapsed on Jia Baobao's body.
Lady Jia sighed heavily at Jia Zheng.
Jia Zheng was embarrassed. He hated Concubine Zhao and Jia Huan for deliberately hiding Jia Baoyu's injuries.
Jia Tanchun said, "Jia Huan, let's go kneel in the ancestral hall together."
Jia Huan looked at his brother in disbelief.
Jia Zheng pointed at Jia Huan. He was so angry that he couldn't speak. He waved his sleeves fiercely and said, "Get over there and kneel!"
After that, he left with his hands behind his back, no longer paying any attention to Concubine Zhao.
Lady Wang glared at Concubine Zhao fiercely. She lovingly stroked Jia Baobao with her palm and said, "Baoyu's hand is the one that needs to hold a pen to write. What a vicious heart!"
Jia Tanchun looked at Jia Huan, only to see him looking at Jia Baoyu's red and swollen arm with a gloomy face.
"Brother Huan?" Jia Tanchun called him softly.
Jia Huan was half a beat slower and raised his head.
Jia Tanchun frowned and said, "What are you thinking about?"
Jia Huan didn't say a word. He lowered his head again and stared blankly at the ground in front of his feet.
Jia Tanchun sighed. He felt that he couldn't understand his brother anymore.
He said faintly, "Baoyu is a kind person. You should treat him better. I'm leaving Rongguo Province in a few days and going to Duke Zhenguo's Mansion. You should look after Mother and make sure she doesn't go out and cause trouble."
Jia Tanchun thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "Rongguo Province isn't a place where she can get what she wants. Don't be greedy. Study hard and rely on the imperial examination. That's the right way."
Jia Huan said coldly, "Plan? Do I dare? He's the high and mighty Bao Erye. Do you think he'll take a fancy to a concubine's son like me? You're talking about me. Aren't you also isolated and helpless in Duke Zhenguo's Mansion? Their legitimate heir's health is sometimes good and sometimes bad. You've been adopted a long time ago. Sometimes you're kicked out, sometimes you're asked to go back. "
Jia Tanchun snorted softly, "Their family is just a mess. I really don't care about them. If you have the ability, you should fight for your own future!"
Sure enough, he was still the proud and ambitious Jia Tanchun.
Jia Huan looked at him.
Jia Tanchun said with a cold face, "You don't have to be so eccentric here. If you don't speak properly, even if you care about others, don't expect them to appreciate it. If you can speak properly, your relationship with Baoyu won't be so stiff. "
He glanced at Jia Huan's wrist, "You're still wearing the red string she gave you?"
Jia Huan immediately reached out and covered it, "It can't be untied. Who cares!"
"You're stubborn and unlikable. There will be a time when you cry."
Jia Huan said gloomily, "Baoyu, Baoyu, you keep talking about Baoyu. You keep speaking for Baoyu, but you don't care about your own brother. You're really biased."
Jia Tanchun said unceremoniously, "When did the younger brother start to care about the older brother? I like whoever I like. What's more, a person's heart is biased … I know you're angry because I asked you to kneel in the ancestral hall first. But you should understand that it's lucky that I said it. If the master reprimanded you, I don't know what punishment he would punish you. "
He was really a rose. Just a slight touch and his hand was full of thorns.
Jia Huan pursed his lips.
In the garden, the vicious and domineering Young Mistress Lian and the gentle and tough Young Mistress Rong helped Jia Baoyu to leave together. It made Jia Baoyu look petite and pitiful.
Jia Huan couldn't help but feel a little strange.
When did the womenfolk of Jia Prefecture become so strong?
Rongguo Province's mountainous veranda had parrots, thrushes, and other birds hanging on it. It was very lively.
Suddenly, there was a loud shout in the courtyard.
"Quickly bring Baoyu over!"
This shout shocked all the birds and made them quickly flap their wings and cry loudly.
"Don't try to persuade me again. I'm going to beat this unfilial son to death today!"
