Chapter 241 You Can't Stop Me
Everything was just as Tanchun had worried.
The people in this shop were not arranged by Youshi.
Instead, Jia Rong pretended to be remorseful and sad for a month or two. When the Jia clan relaxed their surveillance on him, Jia Rong sent his trusted aides to Suzhou and Yangzhou respectively, hoping to find the Lin family's weakness.
Now that Jia Zhen is dead and Jia Jing is in seclusion, the only person he hates and has a chance to reach is Daiyu.
He also heard about Prince Beijing's proposal to marry her.
Everyone used to think that Aunt Lin still had only one Jia Baoyu in her eyes and heart, just like she did a few years ago.
But later it seemed that I was wrong.
Then the whole family secretly thought that she would enter the palace and become the emperor's concubine.
But later it seemed wrong.
When Prince Beijing came to Jiangnan to avoid shame, Jia Rong had evil thoughts in his mind:
Who cares what kind of marriage Lin Daiyu wants? !
All he needs to know is that this ruthless and cruel woman does not want to marry Prince Beijing!
The more you don't want it, the more I will help Prince Beijing to get rid of you!
Jia Rong originally thought that since Lin Ruhai was in Jiangnan, there must be some clues.
As long as we find Lin Ruhai's mistake, we can hand him over to Prince Beijing.
Firstly, Prince Beijing could use this to threaten Daiyu and force her to enter the palace as a concubine.
Secondly, he could rely on this achievement and, once the three-year mourning period was over, he could go to Prince Beijing and return to the capital!
Don't you all look down on me and think that I can't inherit the reputation of Duke Ningguo? Then I will show you what you have missed!
Unexpectedly, the people he arranged really discovered that Daiyu had quietly gone to the south of the Yangtze River and entered Suzhou!
The man quickly asked for leave from the shop owner, saying that there was an urgent matter in his hometown in Nanjing and he had to go back immediately.
He also promised that he would be back in five days at most and three days at least.
The shopkeeper felt puzzled but didn't say anything. He just approved the leave with a smile.
He turned around and ordered his trusted servant to quietly follow this man back and give a message to Youshi.
The servant followed the man all the way to the sacrifice village, and heard him tell Jia Rong that Lin Daiyu had returned to Gusu.
Jia Rong was overjoyed. He looked up to the sky and laughed three times. Then he pointed at his father's grave and said mockingly:
"You think she is a master of strategy and can turn things around, but she is just a self-righteous little girl!
"Now she is taking risks alone and going to Jiangnan secretly. I'm afraid even the emperor and the old lady don't know her whereabouts!
"Jiangnan is now the territory of Prince Beijing! No one can protect her!"
With a sinister look on his face, he immediately ordered the man, "Don't stop, go to Yangzhou immediately. The Prince of Beijing is currently staying in Yangzhou.
"You don't have to say anything, just tell him: I want you to report to him that Princess Zhaoqing has returned to her hometown incognito and is currently offering sacrifices to her ancestors in Gusu!"
The man agreed and walked out.
After hearing these words, the guy who was following him was horrified and hurriedly followed the man out. He thought about it over and over again, and the more he thought about it, the more scared he became.
So he simply took advantage of the fact that he was eating on the road outside the village and knocked him out with a stick!
He called the stall owner and asked them to help him. They tied the man up, gagged him, put him on a cart, drove him back to the Jia family's old house in Jinling, and presented him to Youshi.
Youshi was naturally shocked, and called Jia Jin, who was entrusted by Jia Zhen to manage the household affairs, to come and hear the whole story.
After listening to everything and asking the person who was tied up, he couldn't help but feel dizzy!
If Jia Rong really sent the news to Prince Beijing, how could Sister Lin survive? !
Considering the feud between Lord Ning and Lin Daiyu, her life or death can be ignored. However, what about the wrath of the current Emperor Zhaoming that would be brought about by her life or death?
Who can bear it?
Yu was so angry that she trembled all over and cursed angrily: "Evil creature!
"His father sacrificed his own life and his grandfather was locked up in seclusion, all for the sake of exonerating his entire family and giving him a peaceful life!
"Instead of working hard to improve himself, he is still so eager for quick success and has no remorse!"
Although Jia Jin knew everything that happened in the capital, he had never experienced it personally, so he had no hatred towards Lin Daiyu and no feelings towards Jia Rong.
However, if you think about it calmly, Lin Daiyu is the perfect bridge for the Jia family to turn from the camp of the four kings and eight dukes who closely follow the Supreme Lord to the camp of loyalty to the current Emperor Zhaoming.
How could such a person be harmed when he is being fawned upon and protected? !
Jia Jin raised his head and discussed with Youshi: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry yet. This servant is not following the rules, so just lock him up first.
"As for Princess Zhaoqing, would you like to send someone to warn her?
"If our family knows about her return to Jiangnan, then others will know about it too.
"The grudge between her and Prince Beijing is known to the world. There is no guarantee that someone will not try to curry favor with Prince Beijing.
“If she has finished everything she needed to do, she might as well return to Beijing now.
"If she leaves now, why not let our family help cover up for her and send her off as far as she can, just out of the border of Jiangnan Province."
You Shi praised it very much, thought for a moment, and said, "I think there is nothing important happening in Jinling right now, so my presence is enough.
"The matter in Gusu is more important. Take Wei Ge'er with you and go to Gusu in person.
"Although Sister Lin is not easy-going, she always follows the rules of propriety.
"You have done everything you should do. Whether she appreciates it or not is secondary. The most important thing is to prevent her from getting into any accidents!"
Jia Jin stood up and listened, then crossed his arms and agreed, "Then I'll go call Wei Ge'er and get ready to set off."
Youshi waved her hand: "Go!"
Jia Jin left quickly.
But at night, someone suddenly came to report to the village: "Master Xiaorong is going out.
“Because of the decree, we dared not let him go. So he beat anyone who tried to stop him.
“No one dared to fight back.
"Please ask Grandma Zhen to go and take a look!"
Yu looked at the wounds on the face and head of the man who brought the news, and she felt angry and anxious, and she burst into tears:
"Evil creature! If his father were still alive, he would have broken his legs!"
I had no choice but to call a few more people from the tribe to go to the village for the sacrifice.
At this moment, Jia Rong was wearing mourning clothes, with disheveled hair, looking like a madman. He was holding a large branch in his hand, and he would swing it violently when he saw anyone approaching him!
When Youshi came up to them, she ordered all the villagers to step back, and then she looked at Jia Rong and asked him,
"The imperial decree says that you must observe mourning for three years and not leave.
"You are clearly disobeying the order, do you want to sacrifice the lives of all these people?
"Is there anything that can't be said calmly?!"
Seeing her coming, Jia Rong sneered and threw the branch away: "If I hadn't made such a fuss, I'm afraid it would have been difficult to invite your grandmother Zhen to come here, right?"
So, just talk to yourself face to face?
Youshi suppressed her anger and told everyone to go back, treat their wounds, and rest.
When only himself, Jia Rong, and a few clansmen standing far away were left, he asked in a low and cold voice:
"What do you want to do?"
Jia Rong grinned, lowered his voice, and gritted his teeth:
"You can only tie up one person, but you can't tie up a second or third person!
"Don't forget, my last name is Jia!
"I am the eldest grandson of the eldest house with pure blood!
"Whatever I want to do, there are ways to do it! You can't stop me!"
