The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Prince Zhongshun was not someone who could be offended.

Not only the Rongguo Mansion but also the Niu Family, with the support of the Empress Dowager. They have to be careful not to bump into Prince Zhongshun if they see him around!

If he followed Sun Shaozu to collect money from the residence of Prince Zhongshun, wouldn't he be finished?!

Jia She thought of this, and he didn't dare to agree to the request of the ”boorish fellow.” He hurriedly shook him off and screamed like he was fighting for his life, "Don't be reckless, don't do anything wrong. Let's take a long view first!"

After shouting ”take a long view” twice, Sun Shaozu still seemed determined to pull him to collect the debts. Thus, he quickly changed his mind and said, "Forget about me borrowing money from you."

"Why, you don't want to borrow silver anymore?"

Sun Shaozu then stopped, frowned, and said, "Just by going to Prince ZHongshun’s residence, there will be 5000 silver taels in the account. This is a good deal..."

"What a good deal?!"

Jia She swore at him, "If you want to die, go by yourself. Don't take me with you!"

With that, he rushed out angrily.

Just as he arrived at the entrance of the hall, he suddenly stood still, turned his head, looked suspiciously at Sun Shaozu, and said, "Dalang, are you frightening me with Prince Zhongshun?"

This straw bag was not entirely stupid!

Sun Shaozu knew more about Prince Zhongshun’s temper than he did. How would he dare collect debts from him?

Besides, Prince Zhongshun was naturally his backer, which was more useful than holding tens of thousands of silver taels.

For example, Jia She came to "borrow" silver under the name of Rongguo Mansion. Even if Sun Shaozu had been unwilling in the past, he was afraid that he would need to give him some silver to send him away.

But now he has the confidence to be extremely stingy!

Of course, if it were Jia Zheng who came here, then the situation would be different. It was because he had a daughter who was now an Imperial Concubine in favor.

"What are you talking about, Uncle?!"

Sun Shaozu stared and said wrongly, "Why don't we go to Prince Zhongshun's Residence now? Come on, get me a horse..."

"Hmph!"

Before anyone outside agreed, Jia She gave a cold groan and left the living room.

"Uncle? Uncle!"

Sun Shaozu chased and shouted twice. Seeing that he disappeared in the dark, he couldn't help but turn his back and smirk proudly.

He has been sulked at Rongguo Mansion for more than ten years, not to mention others, and this is the first time he has had the upper hand!

So after a while, thinking that Jia She had already left the gate of Sun Mansion, he simply changed his snickering to laughing wildly.

"Hahaha... Eh?!"

While laughing, he suddenly felt that someone was peeping behind him. Sun Shaozu subconsciously looked back and saw that Jia She had appeared quietly outside the hall!

He stopped laughing awkwardly and said, "You... How did you... Why did you come back?"

As if he hadn't heard it, he stared up and down at Sun Shaozu, and his face was full of emotions and desires as if he were changing his face in Sichuan Opera.

Sun Shaozu could not help feeling cold under his gaze and secretly wondered if he had really annoyed this straw bag.

If it was true, this was not a joke!

Apart from that, as long as Jia She asks his in-laws and Princes to take a chance to transfer Sun Shaozu to the wild places in Guangdong and Guangxi at all costs, he could destroy more than half of his promising future!

Thinking of this, Sun Shaozu was about to say a few words to please him and even wanted to use some money to avoid disasters. That’s when he heard Jia She ask, "My dear nephew, I heard that you intend to remarry recently?"

Sun Shaozong boasted being vigorous and resolute, but the action of his Elder Brother was more decisive than that of him.

On that day, he put forward his identity as the eldest brother. After the matter was finalized, he quickly released the news that he wanted to remarry. It would be much easier to find someone to inquire about a woman's character and appearance.

Jia She was also well-informed, and it was not surprising to hear.

But why did he mention it now? Did he want to make money as a matchmaker for himself?

Leave it! Anyway, as long as they were not turning against each other, that would do!

With this in mind, Sun Shaozu said, "My brother is old enough to get married, but there is no suitable woman in charge of his family. It will always be inconvenient for him to discuss his marriage, so I planned to marry one and fill the position."

"I see."

Jia She nodded and said earnestly, "Since you are going to marry a person who can take charge, you can't go for a small family. If she is a sensible one, that’s fine. But if she’s not and delays your brother's good deed, it will be counterproductive."

This was more and more like a guaranteed matchmaker!

Sun Shaozu then asked tentatively, "Is Uncle going to introduce a marriage partner to me?"

"Well..."

Jia She hesitated a little but thought about the unrivaled little widow, he still gritted his teeth and said, "Your sister will be 16 years old after the New Year. She has a good look and is the most clever and sensible. If I entrust her to someone else, I can’t bear it. But our family has been friends for generations, and I know everything about you..."

Although Sun Shaozu had long guessed that he was trying to be a matchmaker, he never expected that this guy would marry his daughter!

Apart from others, Jia She's current wife, Xing, and Jia Zhen’s current wife in Ningguo Mansion, whom they had remarried, were all from small families. Because only such families were willing to give their daughters to be someone’s widow!

Now, Jia She was offering his daughter!

Although she was only a daughter of a concubine, she was also the daughter of the State Duke Mansion!

Sun Shaozu was stunned for a moment, but when he thought about it, he suddenly realized that Jia She was not going to marry his daughter away. It was clear that he was going to sell her!

So he carefully tried and asked, "Is it possible you want to give me your daughter?"

"Well..."

Jia She thrust out his belly and said in an official voice, "Although you are older than my daughter, you can be regarded as a good match. If you are willing to, it's not impossible."

Sun Shaozu's reputation in dealing with women could be said to be half as good as his. Why did he have the face to say the word "good match."

On the one hand, he said ”barely,” and on the other, he said that it was ”not impossible.” He was obviously waiting for the price!

This straw bag really wanted to sell his daughter away!

Sun Shaozu was extremely contemptuous, and then he flatly refused, "Uncle is kind to me, but I dare not delay my sister's good life!"

Are you kidding?

The reason for his remarrying plan was to ”palming off substitute for the real thing.” How could the daughter of the State Duke Mansion accept such absurd things?

If they were exposed, wouldn't it damage the reputation of the brothers?

"You!"

Jia She didn’t think that Sun Shaozu would reject his offer to marry his daughter to him without hesitation.

He immediately wanted to leave!

However, when he thought of the little widow of Chongwen Gate, the pretty appearance brought a little doubt in his hope, and his two legs were unable to move anymore.
