Chapter 467

"What, what is going on here?"

"Master, you've finally returned, you must save our Baoyu!"

Lady Wang, who was completely at a loss, hurriedly stood up.

And shouted at Jia Zheng.

"Speak, what exactly is going on!"

Jia Zheng asked in a low voice.

"Master, this is what happened. It's Baoyu's fault, he just dared to curse Marquis Wushuang as a fame-seeking hypocrite, and even called him a national traitor and a greedy ghost, it was truly disgusting!"

At this moment, Concubine Zhao, who loved to compete and stir up trouble, seized the opportunity.

Naturally, she wouldn't let it go.

So she grabbed the conversation first.

She actually repeated Jia Baoyu's words cursing Jia Hui word for word.

She didn't usually have such a good memory.

It seems her intelligence peaked when she was harming others.

At this moment, she was overjoyed.

Her resentment toward Jia Hui was gone, and she even wanted to thank him.

After hearing this, Jia Zheng was immediately furious, uncontrollably enraged!

Not only did he not have the sympathy for Jia Baoyu that Lady Wang imagined, nor the thought of standing up for him.

Instead, he cursed out loud: "What a wicked obstacle, to be so vicious, truly a wicked obstacle, he deserves to be arrested, I wish I could beat him to death on the spot!"

He had loved reading since childhood, but he was not naturally rigid or dull; before entering office, he "was also a person who indulged in poetry and wine," but "everything was for the sake of bringing honor to his ancestors," therefore he valued studying and advancement, returning to the right path.

He was an upright and honest person.

So naturally, he couldn't stand Jia Baoyu's disregard for studying and fame.

This completely went against his life's values and ideals!

He couldn't accept it!

Therefore, he cursed in anger.

He truly wished he could beat Jia Baoyu to death himself!

He was even more shocked and angry that Jia Baoyu would cause such trouble!

Was Jia Hui someone who could be provoked?

Wang Ziteng and others were still being held.

The Minister of War, two major Duke's Mansions, and a Marquis had all been brought down or killed by him!

He only felt deep fear toward Jia Hui!

He absolutely dared not provoke him.

Jia Lian had caused him to be arrested and also lost a full one hundred thousand taels of silver!

This had already made Jia Zheng very dissatisfied with Jia Lian.

He secretly cursed his brother for not being strict enough in his discipline!

Now his own son was actually like this too!

Jia Zheng was so angry he nearly vomited blood!

He felt extremely ashamed and embarrassed!

"This wicked son, wicked son, he should be killed, he should be killed!"

Jia Zheng was trembling with anger.

Even more ruthless than Jia Hui.

Jia Hui only tattooed him and punished him for six years.

But he kept saying he should be killed.

Wanting to kill Jia Baoyu.

At this moment, Jia Zheng truly thought so; he wished he could turn around and leave.

And kill Baoyu on the spot.

Because if that were the case.

There would be no need for Jia Baoyu to be tattooed and bring shame to the Rongguo Mansion and himself!

"Bring me a sword, I want to kill him."

He even asked for a weapon directly!

Lady Wang was incredibly cold and terrified; she never expected.

That Jia Zheng would be so ruthless.

Not only did he not save his son.

But he actually wanted to kill his own son.

"If you want to kill Baoyu, kill me first."

Fortunately, Jia Mu was there, wailing and scolding him.

Jia Zheng, who was always filial to Jia Mu and followed her every word, immediately wilted again: "Mother... sigh!"

In daily life, whenever there was something good to eat or play with, he would always offer it to his mother first, letting her taste or see it. When arranging family banquets, he would always tell a joke or two to make his mother happy. Beating Baoyu was originally intended to strictly punish his unfilial behavior and let him return to the right path, so he could bring honor to his ancestors in the future.

This should be considered a father's legitimate right, but Jia Mu doted on her grandson and often scolded Jia Zheng severely because of it.

In order not to disobey his mother's wishes, Jia Zheng had to give up this right.

This all reflects Jia Zheng's deep affection for his mother.

But with a Jia Mu who doted on her grandson so much.

How could he discipline Jia Baoyu?

It's no wonder Jia Baoyu turned into such a piece of trash.

He felt sorrow in his heart.

In short, Jia Zheng was deeply influenced by Confucian thought; although he was honest and filial, he was pedantic, conservative, slow, and confused.

He ignored Jia Mu and Lady Wang.

Jia Hui added insult to injury at this moment.

Turning his gaze to the faces of Yingchun, Tanchun, Daiyu, as well as Li Wan and Fengjie, he said: "This Jia Baoyu is truly all appearance and no substance, a boor, foolish, stubborn, eccentric, incompetent, and unfilial."

"I don't know how your Rongguo Mansion disciplines him."

These words made everyone in the Jia family feel incredibly embarrassed.

Jia Mu, Jia Zheng, and Lady Wang bore the brunt of it.

Jia Zheng, who considered himself upright, was ashamed: "Marquis Wushuang, it is my fault, sigh."

He only felt incredibly ashamed.

Lady Wang, however, was annoyed that Jia Hui would curse so excessively.

Jia Hui, however, was "inspired by poetry," and said, "I have a new poem, titled 'Xi Jiang Yue: Mocking Jia Baoyu' (two parts), as a gift for you all."

Xi Jiang Yue is also a tune name.

At this moment, Li Wan, Daiyu, and others were all very curious.

What kind of poem Jia Hui would make.

Because of the previous world-shaking poem.

All the women were very expectant of Jia Hui.

Jia Hui then recited a poem, although it was plagiarized: "Seeking sorrow and resentment without cause, sometimes appearing foolish and mad; even though born with a good skin, the inside is nothing but weeds."

"Down and out, not understanding worldly affairs, foolish and afraid to read articles; behavior eccentric and personality strange, not caring about the slander of the world!"

"Wealthy but not knowing how to enjoy his work, poor but unable to endure hardship; pitifully wasting good times, hopeless to the country and the family."

"The most incompetent in the world, unfilial like no other in history; a message to the fops and the wealthy, do not imitate this child's shape!"

"Hiss!!!"

The women were stunned after hearing it.
