Chapter 1307: Lin Daiyu heads south!

Three days later in Yangzhou, a large ship docked.

Leading Sister Lin off the ship, Jia Lian was here for the second time.

However, the first time he came to pick someone up, he made a mistake, letting Sister Lin run to the neighboring Jia family!

This time, although the Ningguo Mansion sent people to escort her, Jia Mu also let Jia Lian come along after learning the news.

After getting off the ship, the Lin family's carriage was already waiting.

Looking at the many guards still here, Jia Lian looked puzzled, because where did the Lin family get this group of fierce soldiers?

"Aunt Lin, Uncle is also in Yangzhou, he specially sent me to pick you up!"

Walking out from the crowd, Jia Wei opened his mouth immediately after seeing Lin Daiyu.

"Brother, is Brother also in Yangzhou?"

Looking at Jia Wei in surprise, Lin Daiyu felt a sense of puzzlement in her heart.

"Uncle rushed to Yangzhou after learning that Uncle Lin was seriously ill!"

Explaining to Lin Daiyu, Jia Wei cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Lian, how are you!"

"Brother Wei is too polite, too polite!"

Looking at Jia Wei in front of him, Jia Lian didn't dare to be arrogant, because if this guy got ruthless, he was the ruthless person who even crippled Wang Zisheng!

Lin family, inside the room, the medicinal scent was heavy.

Lying on the bed, Lin Ruhai was able to wake up, but his body was still somewhat unbearable. Even if he could be cured, he would likely be short-lived in the future.

However, these things didn't matter to Zhang Cheng; as long as he could let Lin Ruhai live temporarily, the Divine Illumination would naturally take action!

Divine Illumination Scripture: Me?

Zhang Cheng: Otherwise, me?

"Father, Brother..."

Running in from the door, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but panic, because she was truly afraid of seeing her father in a state of nearing death.

"Yu'er, you're back!"

Hearing Lin Daiyu's voice, Lin Ruhai forced his body to sit up, coughing uncontrollably.

"Father, you?"

Looking at Lin Ruhai's appearance, which was even weaker than when she left, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but shed tears.

"It's okay, Yu'er, it's okay!"

Comforting Lin Daiyu, while they were talking, Zhang Cheng and the doctors all went out.

Arriving in the courtyard, Zhang Cheng looked at Jia Lian and said, "Brother Lian is also here?"

"Yes, yes, the Old Matriarch was worried about Sister Lin, so she sent me to escort her!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with embarrassment, Jia Lian couldn't help but rub his head, appearing exceptionally awkward.

Because he had sent Sister Lin last time, but he returned first, letting Lin Daiyu be abducted directly by Zhang Cheng!

"Alright, there's nothing for you here, go out and play!"

Taking out a bag of silver, Zhang Cheng handed it to Jia Lian, telling him to go find a brothel to sing in!

"This, isn't it good, Brother Jue!"

Looking at the silver in surprise, Jia Lian was stunned.

"You want to return it?"

Extending his hand, Zhang Cheng looked at Jia Lian in front of him.

"I'll leave right now, I definitely won't disturb Brother's work!"

Turning and leaving, Jia Lian was also very smart, knowing that Zhang Cheng's appearance here was definitely not a good thing, and turned and ran.

Watching Jia Lian's back, Jia Wei asked curiously, "Uncle, why did you give it to him? We originally..."

"This money isn't for the Jia family, it's for the Retired Emperor's face!"

Speaking with a gloomy face, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but raise his wine cup.

The Retired Emperor had ordered the family visit, what could he say? As for Emperor Hongde, he must also be furious. After all, Jia Yuanchun was his concubine, even if she was forced on him, but for her to respond to the Retired Emperor's order like this, did she not put him in her eyes at all!

Therefore, the Rongguo Mansion falling into a vast expanse of whiteness wasn't without reason; this was truly a god-like pig teammate!

"Then on the day of the family visit, we?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Jia Wei inquired.

"Jia Zhen is still alive, right? You go back and kill him, we'll hold a funeral to avoid it!"

Speaking to Jia Wei beside him, Zhang Cheng didn't intend to get involved in this matter at all.

After all, this was the Rongguo Mansion's business; he had no reason to be busy helping, that would be too offensive to Emperor Hongde!

And Jia Zhen was his nominal "big brother" anyway; if he died, Zhang Cheng would definitely have to help him "observe mourning"!

Zhang Cheng: Once a big brother, always a big brother!

Jia Zhen: Can the big brother not die?

Jia Wei:...

Inside the Rongguo Mansion, everyone was gathered together.

Watching Jia Baoyu shuttling between the sisters, Jia Zheng stared at him gloomily, slowly moving his hand toward his waist.

Seeing this scene, Jia Baoyu didn't dare to move, hurriedly hiding beside Jia Mu.

"Let's all speak, this time the Ningguo Mansion's Brother Jue only gave one hundred thousand taels, what should we do about the remaining silver!"

Looking at everyone present, Jia Mu opened her mouth.

And hearing Jia Mu's words, Wang Lady said angrily, "That Brother Jue is truly too ignorant. It was clearly a great joyous event, yet the Ningguo Mansion only gave such a little silver. Isn't this belittling my virtuous concubine!"

Looking at Wang Lady in shock, if Jia She could scold people, he would have rushed up to start a zero-frame attack now.

Because if Jia Jue was busy helping and giving silver, then he would truly be a fool!

Anyone with eyes could see that the Emperor didn't care about Jia Yuanchun at all, and didn't even think about letting her be a proper concubine; this was just a response made while the Retired Emperor was still around.

If Jia Jue had any brains, he wouldn't come to join in, you actually think this is a great joyous event?

Being able to give one hundred thousand taels was already out of respect for the Retired Emperor; otherwise, with Wang Lady's brainless attitude, Zhang Cheng wouldn't have kicked her out of the door, which would be considered polite!

Hearing Wang Lady's words, Jia Zheng said, "Brother Jue helped us so much, what else do you want to say? It's all this beast, causing a rift between the two mansions!"

Scolding while pointing at Jia Baoyu, Jia Zheng felt a burst of anger.

Looking at Jia Zheng with embarrassment, Jia She also felt a headache. Alright, Jia Zheng also didn't see the key to this matter!

"Stop talking, everyone gather your own silver. I, the Old Matriarch, have no use for silver, so I'll give fifty thousand taels!"

Looking at the people below, Jia Mu didn't want to say anything more, because she was truly tired and just wanted to take advantage of Yuanchun's return to be happy!

"What about you, Eldest?"

Looking at Jia She, Jia Mu's sharp gaze was serious.

"Me? I'm the same as Mother, I'll give fifty thousand taels too!"

Speaking to Jia Mu, Jia She was able to take out fifty thousand taels, truly vomiting blood, because he didn't have much silver himself!

"I borrowed two hundred thousand taels from my sister, plus the family's, totaling three hundred thousand taels!"

Looking at Jia Mu, Wang Lady went all out this time, because she wanted her daughter to return in glory.

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 1308 =====

Watching Zhang Cheng's retreating figure, Lin Ruhai could not help but fall into a silence, for he did not understand where Zhang Cheng's confidence came from!

One must know that his body was already failing!

Divine Illumination Classic: Even if you're dead, I'll drag you back!

King Yama: Who the hell is flickering on the Book of Life and Death!

Inside a room, Zhang Cheng put on his python robe, fastened his jade belt, and smoothed his hair, saying, "Let's go, Brother Wei, let's go and take a look at the Zhen family, who exert such pressure over Jiangnan!"

"Yes, Uncle!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Jia Wei began to laugh, for he sensed that his uncle was going there to pick a fight!

"When acting in an official capacity, use the title; call me Marquis!"

Speaking to Jia Wei, Zhang Cheng could not help but become serious.

"Yes, Marquis!"

Glaring at Zhang Cheng, Jia Wei wore a look of utter helplessness; they were all family, so why be so formal? It was ridiculous!

Outside the Lin residence, the carriage had already been waiting for a long time.

When the grand plaque of the Marquis of Zhongwu was erected, the surrounding commoners immediately hid far away.
