Chapter 39
Because of Lai Da's false accusation, Jia Shen and Jia Zhenglian were present together with Jia Jing, and Jia Shenzhen sternly asked Fang Zhongzheng to investigate the matter and clear his name.
Fang Zhongzheng nodded and said, "Lai Da, when did you sue your master for instigating you to release loan sharks?" Said: "It's less than two years." Fang Zhongzheng asked again: "Then where is this IOU now?" Lai Da replied: "It's in a secret compartment in my study, but now my Lai's house has been confiscated by Master Jia. I think these IOUs have all been destroyed."
Fang Zhongzheng turned his head to look at Jia Amnesty after hearing this, "Does General Jia have anything to say?"
Jia She said with a serious face: "There is absolutely no such thing. But I have a few words to ask Lai Da in court. I wonder if Mr. Fang is okay?" Seeing Fang Zhongzheng nodding, Jia She walked up to the kneeling Lai Da Front: "You said I put loan sharks, how much interest is the loan sharks released in a month?"
"About 800 taels."
"One thousand eight hundred taels, huh, I didn't expect that my housekeeper is really good at making money. It seems that it is too condescending to only let you be the first housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion." Jia She sneered and said sharply: "But you are the housekeeper. You underestimated me, Jia She, too." Jia She took off the fan bag he was carrying with him, and unfolded the fan, "You should accompany me to buy this fan, do you remember how much it cost?"
Lai Da raised his eyes and saw that the fan was indeed bought by himself in the Wenhui Pavilion accompanied by Jia She, and he spent 500 taels of silver.Lai Da didn't understand why Jia Amnesty would ask something irrelevant, he raised his head and opened his mouth but didn't answer.
"Butler Lai is busy making profits every day. Naturally, the butler has no time to take care of his business. Let me tell you, I still remember that it was 500 taels. It's common to buy five or eight of these. You That's a mere 800 taels of silver, which is a lot of money, but it's not worth making your father blindsided by such a small profit." Jia She closed his unfolded fan with a "crash" and said, "I'm honored." The ancestors of the national government followed the first emperor from birth to death to earn what they are today for their descendants. Besides, I, Jia Xie Xiejue, as a first-class general, have my own salary and ancestral property, so I have nothing to do to do such a bad thing? You? Lai Daxin is bold and fat, and he is not afraid of retribution, but I am afraid that I will lose face to my ancestors in the future!"
Seeing Jia She's stern speech, and satirizing that he had lost his virtue and suffered retribution this time, he was so angry that he hurriedly argued: "This is what the master ordered the little one to do. The little one remembers that the master wanted to buy an ancient fan at that time. Because the money is not in hand, I came up with this idea, and today I am talking about how this matter has turned into a villain's own work, I hope Master Fang will see clearly."
Jia Amnesty saw Lai's nonsense and said again: "You said I did this, so let me ask you whose name is on the IOU?"
Seeing that Jia She asked such a question, it fell right into Lai Da's arms, and Lai Da hurriedly said: "It's the master who gave me a private seal for this purpose." Going up to Lai Da's eyes and asking: "But this private seal?" Lai Da immediately responded, "This is it, this is it." Jia Amnesty retracted his hand and slapped Lai Da's mouth with his backhand Angrily said: "I just said why my private seal disappeared, but it was copied out at your house this time. I was still wondering, so you stole it and used it to do such dirty things." Jia She After finishing speaking, he handed over the private seal to Fang Zhongzheng and said: "This chapter is an idle chapter of mine. It was originally printed on an ancient fan in my collection. I am still surprised that this chapter will disappear for a few days from time to time. When I bought a new fan, it would definitely appear. I also mentioned this matter to the shopkeepers of the antique shops in the capital, jokingly saying that this chapter has spirituality and only shows up after seeing a good fan. All the shopkeepers of the antique shops in the capital can testify to me. I also don't take it seriously, and now it seems that this thief has already gone too far to plot against me. Today I also ask Mr. Fang to comment. You said that if I ordered someone to lend money and used my private seal, why is this IOU? I have to hand it over to the housekeeper. It doesn’t make sense in terms of emotion or reason. If I do this, I’m going to give my handle to others. I really think I’m a fool who doesn’t know the law!”
When Lai Da heard this, he covered his face swollen by Jia She's slap in the face and said, "I'm just a servant, how dare I arrest the master. The receipt of the IOU is just for convenience."
Jia She pointed at Lai Da and cursed: "Sure enough, you are eloquent, but you didn't catch the master, you dare to sue your master. It's amazing to be a slave to make you like this."
Fang Zhong was listening to the confrontation between the master and the servant. Seeing that Jia She made the matter clear and did not hide it, he knew that his words were probably true. , and you must carefully keep the credentials yourself, otherwise once it falls into the hands of others, it's still not easy to handle.Seeing that the two were drifting away from the topic, Fang Zhongzheng asked, "I don't have any evidence, but the borrower should still be there. How many do you remember? Let's ask!"
Hearing what Fang Zhongzheng said, Lai Daxin hurriedly reported a few sufferers he remembered.Fang Zhongzheng ordered people to bring all these sufferers.These suffering masters came to the court, and when they saw Lai Da had no time to reply, they were busy thanking Lai Da first, thanking him for saving the principal and interest of their loan sharks.At first, Lai Da didn't know when he waived the principal and interest of these people, but after thinking about it for a while, he realized that it must be the ancestor Jia She who forgave the money one step at a time, without even asking for the principal, and took back the IOU ruined.
Fang Zhongzheng looked at Lai Daoda again: "What else do you have to say this time?"
Lai Daqiang argued: "Master must have acted first to forgive their debts."
Jia She smiled: "Yes, yes, yes, I want to see, you evil slave, see what crimes you can charge me!" After speaking, he took out a stack of papers from his cuff, and threw it on Lai Da's face, "This is all confessed by your subordinates. That day I tied you up and sent you to Mr. Fang for trial. When I returned to the government, I only announced that you had committed a crime and were sent to prison by the government. Your mother thought you used my private banknote to issue loan sharks. When someone found out about it, they rushed to take back and destroy all the IOUs, because they were too hasty to confiscate even the original money, which was all confessed and pledged by your subordinates." Lai Da slumped on the ground holding the testimonies.
Seeing that Lai Da was silent, Jia Amnesty said again: "You think you are smart, and you still want to instigate my brother's servants to drag my brother into the water. You are not stupid. If my brother doesn't notice for a while, won't you be punished forever? Do you rule?" Jia Amnesty turned to Zhongzheng and said, "I also tied up those two servants, so I can provide circumstantial evidence for Lai Dafang's illicit lending of loan sharks."
Fang Zhongzheng ordered someone to bring Zhou Rui and his wife here, and he said that Lai Da taught him how to make money, which was to lure his lord and wife to lend usury, but his wife had complicated affairs these days, so she didn't have time to listen to him explaining the matter in detail. At the beginning, I thought it was because I didn't have the fortune to make a fortune, but after Lai's family incident happened, I realized that it was a matter of losing my head.Zhou Rui and his wife are not stupid at all, seeing that everyone in Lai is so up to date, they put all the matter on Lai Da.
With the gathering of witnesses and material evidence this time, Lai Da can't help but argue again.Then someone asked him to sign and mark the record.After receiving the pledge, Fang Zhongzheng said: "Master Lai, you first forcibly bought good people and forced them to death, then you took advantage of your power to rob them of good land, and then you even stole the seal of the master and released usury privately. Everything is a serious crime. Today, you will be punished according to the law. You are condemned to death. Besides, if you dare to bribe the imperial court officials in public in the future, you must first beat the forty boards. If I beat you first, the trial may be delayed. This case has been cleared. Someone call me " A group of yamen servants stepped forward and dragged Lai Da down to hold him down, and beat the board firmly.Hearing Lai Da's screams, Jia Amnesty felt angry.
Seeing the matter, Jia She and the others wanted to leave and go back to the residence, but Fang Zhongzheng said again: "General Jia, stay here, I still have something to say."

Noon is the concentrated delivery time for couriers in our community, and the downstairs is where the courier vehicles gather. I was looking down at the railing while holding the phone and getting ready.
Dad saw me like this, and told me very kindly: "Don't look at me, like a pug waiting for a bone. I went downstairs to make soy sauce and showed my face, and those couriers told me directly that there was no courier for your daughter today. "
