Winning every step of the Red Mansion

266

The Ningrong Second Mansion split the sect, and Jia Amnesty unfolded the mounted paper describing the ins and outs of the division according to the previously drawn-up procedure and prepared to burn it.But it never occurred to Jia Zhen to interrupt suddenly, the meaning of her words was to ask Jia Amnesty to explain to the tribe what was stated in the mounted paper.Hearing his words, Jia Amnesty sneered in his heart, even if you, Jia Zhen, were willing to lose face, I would still be reluctant to compensate you for losing face together.

Jia She glanced at Jia Zhen, and then swept his eyes over the faces of the clansmen standing in the room one by one.He went straight to the side of the joss stick, grabbed a candlestick and walked to Jia Jing's side, and the flame went straight to the mounting paper.That thing was originally used for burning respect, so naturally it will catch fire when it touches it.Jia Jing never thought that Jia She would do this directly, holding the mounting paper in his hand, but he didn't expect that the fire would start directly, and the flames would burn his hand in an instant, so he shook his hand and let go.Jia Lian on the side was quick-sighted, sent the brazier forward, caught the unfinished mounting paper and said, "It's for the ancestors, it might be abrupt to drop it on the ground." After waiting for a moment, the mounting paper in the basin The paper burns out.Jia Amnesty stared at the only smear of black ash left in the basin and said: "The ancestors must have received it, and after seeing it, they must have made a clear decision."

Jia Zhen was naturally displeased.Jia Amnesty didn't bother to talk to him, so he turned his head and said to the crowd: "The people who come to this ancestral hall today are all from our Jia family, and I don't need to tell you the truth. It is just to report this matter to the ancestors. Naturally, there will be no falsehoods in the things presented to the ancestors. If there are clansmen who are still unclear about the things stated on the paper, they can come to my study tomorrow, and I will share with you. Make it clear. Otherwise, I will delay my division of Zongji and delay important events, and I will not spare him." After finishing speaking, Jia She put the candlestick back to its original place, "What objection do you have now?"

There was silence in the ancestral hall, and it seemed that even the sound of breathing could not be heard.Most of the clan members of the Jia family had to rely on the Ningrong Second Mansion to live their lives on weekdays, and everyone had heard about this for a long time. Many people also felt that Jia Zhen did not act well this time, which led to what happened today. The old-faced clansmen also went to talk about reconciliation, but they all ended without illness, and they naturally understood that there was no way to recover from this matter.What's more, Rongguo Mansion is now prosperous, even those who rely on Ningguo Mansion are unwilling to offend Jia Amnesty by giving Ningguo Mansion a strong position.Even the few young clansmen who wanted to pick up Jia Zhen's words just now silenced after hearing these words, so the ancestral hall was silent.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Jia Amnesty turned to Jia Zhen and said, "My nephew, do you have anything else to say? If you have something to say, let's make it clear this time, so as not to miss the auspicious time later. At that time, don’t blame me for not remembering the past.”

Jia Zhen was so angry that she trembled, Jia Jing glared at Jia Zhen again, and ordered her to back away in a low voice.Jia Zhen didn't dare to say any more, so she backed away angrily.After burning the paper, someone sang again: "Ask Yao."

Jia Zhen felt happy when she heard the words, by the way, how could she forget about it.I would like to see what should I do if I ask Yao Yao to find out something bad?Jia Zhen said nothing, stretched her neck and waited to watch the excitement.Many people in the Ningguo Mansion also had the same thoughts, waiting to see if any changes would happen in a while.

Jia Amnesty did not panic, and continued to follow the procedures.Ask the hexagrams with clean hands, throw the copper coins, there are people who can explain the hexagrams, and there are also people who understand the hexagrams. It is an auspicious sign at first glance, so naturally I can't say much.It's just that Jia Zhen, who was hoping for something to happen, failed.

Jia She ordered someone to carry the hexagrams from the question line around among the clansmen, asking everyone to look carefully.Seeing that everyone was speechless, he opened his mouth and said: "Now this mounting paper is also burned to the ancestors, and you have seen the reply from the ancestors. Does anyone have any objections?"

Naturally, the clansmen did not dare to speak too much, only the members of the Ningguo Mansion had displeasure on their faces.But now there is no room for turning back, so Jia Zhen turns her back and doesn't look at Jia Amnesty anymore.On the side, Jia Jing was thinking about the ancestral tablet, but he just waved his hands casually when he heard Jia Amnesty's words.Seeing that the two did not speak again, Jia Amnesty gave the person in charge of the arrangement of the branch clan another wink and motioned for the next step.It will be easier to go down, please queue up and go back to the ancestral hall prepared early in Rongguo Mansion, and re-offering, offering incense, and burning paper to pray will be regarded as the ceremony.The people in charge of the ceremonies felt a lot more relaxed. Anyway, the next toss is going back to Rongguo Mansion's territory, which is better than being cautious here.

The clansmen in charge of the ceremonies hurriedly shouted salutes and moved the tablets. Jia Amnesty stepped forward and knelt down to salute. After cleaning his hands, he dragged the tablet of his ancestor Jia Yuan with a plain brocade, and then Jia Zheng asked for his father's tablet, and Jia Hu , Jia Lian also followed suit and invited his uncle to rank. Next, the descendants of Jia Yuan's family took their respective ranks from their parents' elders. One family's ancestral ranking was taken clean.Seeing that all the memorial tablets had been taken down, the clansmen in charge of the ceremony were busy shouting again.Jia Amnesty held Jia Yuan's tablet and led a mighty group of people out of the ancestral hall of Ningguo Mansion, and went straight back to Rongguo Mansion.

After everyone left, everyone in Ningguo Mansion looked at the altar table in the ancestral hall, which was already half empty, so they couldn't help but feel sorry for each other.Originally, Ningrong and Rongfu shared the worship, but suddenly half of it was missing, and there were mixed feelings in my heart.Many clansmen even felt a lot of dissatisfaction with Jia Zhen. After all, this paper can't contain fire. The reason why Jia She was able to make a scene of splitting clans was that Jia Zhen's actions couldn't be hidden. Today, Jia She It can be regarded as saving some face for Ningguo Mansion, and it didn't make Jia Zhen face too bad.But now that Ningrong and Rongfu have divided their sects, for those downcast Ningguo people, it may be difficult to talk about getting some relief from Rongguo.Many people are thinking about waiting for today's matter to be over, and then find a reason to get close to Jia She of Rongguo Mansion. After all, this big ship seems to be much more stable than Ningguo Mansion now.

Naturally, Jia Jing and Jia Zhen didn't know what the people of the tribe thought, but seeing the different expressions on everyone's faces, and some of them were quite dissatisfied with themselves, they could guess a little bit of it.It's just that Jia Jing and Jia Zhen don't have time to think about it now, they just want this matter to be settled early.Seeing that no one was moving, Jia Zhen said impatiently: "Although the sect is divided today, the Ningguo Mansion is still glorious, so don't wait here, place the memorial tablets, offer incense, and separate. "

Originally, some people in the crowd expected Jia Zhen to say something, but after listening to it, the hope disappeared in their hearts.They had to follow Jia Zhen's wishes and resettled the tablets, and offered the offerings one by one, and dispersed in twos and threes after the incense was burnt.

Jia Jing has been facing the ancestral tablet with his hands behind his back and left. Seeing that everyone has dispersed in the ancestral hall, only Jia Zhen and Jia Rong are left on the ground, tears streaming down his face for a while. In other words, as soon as he entered the front, Jia Jing sternly reprimanded him: "You rebellious son has caused such a big disaster for nothing, and now you don't have the slightest remorse, why don't you kneel down and apologize to your ancestors."

When Jia Zhen heard this, she naturally didn't dare to disobey her father's order and knelt down hastily.Jia Rong didn't dare to say much when she saw her, and knelt down next to Jia Zhen, bowing her head in silence.Jia Jing found a ruler from nowhere, persistently walked around behind Jia Zhen, and hit Jia Zhen on the back.Naturally, Jia Zhen was caught off guard and yelled "Ouch" after being hit by a ruler.

"Shut up! This is a blow to you for being disrespectful." Jia Jing said, and then another blow without stopping, "This is a blow to you for dereliction of duty."

This time Jia Zhen really didn't dare to speak out anymore, so she had to endure it firmly, but there was resentment in her eyes.I was indeed at fault for splitting the sect, but it was a matter that could not be slapped in the face. If I really blamed it, I should blame Jia Amnesty for wanting to split the sect long ago.If he hadn't been so persistent, how could he have made such a mess today.

Seeing Jia Zhen, Jia Jing said: "I know that you are dissatisfied. But today's punishment is light for you. You are in charge of the Ningguo Mansion, and you are also in charge of the Jia family. How can you act like the head of the mansion? The appearance of the patriarch. You can only act according to your own preferences. If everyone in the world is like you, why don’t you go against heaven? The ancestors left the glory of this country’s father, not to let you wait so lowly.” Jia Jing became more and more angry, and couldn’t help coughed.

Jia Rong, who was kneeling at the side, saw Jia Jing like this, and hurriedly stood up to help him. Jia Jing waved his hand and said, "You go and kneel with him. I know he can't discipline you well when I see him. And discipline them well." After Jia Rong heard this, she naturally didn't dare to move any more, so she had to kneel down properly.

Jia Jing paused for a while before saying again: "I know I punished you today, you must be dissatisfied in your heart, it's also my fault that I indulged you too much earlier, which caused today's disaster. There are many affairs at home, I am really determined I am not here, but I saw that you have this heart and ambition. I was very happy at first. I wish you could take over the burden early. I am also afraid that if I am in the mansion, you will be restrained when you act timidly. I will teach you all of them..." Jia Jing was disappointed, and sighed: "Oh! Now that I think about it, I was also wrong. I trusted you too much and indulged, that's why I did this. Now that I think about it, your uncle is still more strict in his actions. Well, this Rongguo mansion is no longer what it was ten years ago, whether it is word of mouth or luck. The same time, but such a difference, I am not as good as him. If it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to show his courage. "

Jia Zhen listened to it, but she was still dissatisfied in her heart, but she didn't dare to express it on the surface.Slightly lowering his head, Jia Jing ignored the two after finishing speaking, twisted the incense and offered it himself, and knelt down in the ancestral hall without saying a word.Seeing this, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong didn't dare to speak again.For a moment, the three generations of Ningguo Mansion's ancestors and grandchildren knelt in the ancestral hall, and there was no sound.

After an hour, Jia Jing said: "You go to get the family law of twenty sticks, and then copy the ancestral precepts a hundred times. That's all, Rong'er don't follow you to the limit, at least let him learn from Jia Hu and Jia Zhu."
