By the time the news of Rong Jue's death reached Su Yueling's ears, it was already May 20th.
Rong Jue actually died like that?
Su Yueling was really shocked by the news. When she came to her senses, Su Yueling wanted to set off firecrackers.
What a good death!
Su Yueling happily continued, "I will give you three more months of monthly payment this month."
"Ah?" Yuan Baoshu was stunned for a moment, "What's wrong?"
Su Yueling made a random excuse, "Well, because the flowers in the yard have been blooming beautifully recently, I'm in a good mood."
That's it.
Yuan Baoshu nodded in understanding and immediately gave the order.
Because Su Yueling often thought about it, the whole family naturally accepted her reason. Some servants even made up their minds, thinking that Su Yueling was doing it because they saw how hard they had been working during this time.
Make excuses to give them more money.
The princess is so kind.
Su Yueling originally thought about going to Beijing during this period, but after learning about Rong Jue's death, she gave up the idea. In terms of status, Rong Jue was Sui Jun's uncle, which meant that Sui Jun had to pay filial piety to him.
It is impossible for Su Yueling to go to the funeral of someone he hates and wear mourning for someone he dislikes. According to the customs of Daxia, although there is no need to wear linen, he still has to observe mourning for forty-nine days.
Great, it's time for her to get sick!
Su Yueling immediately arranged for herself to get sick.
When the news of Prince Kang's death came through official channels, Su Yueling was already too ill to go out.
Under such circumstances, naturally no one would say that she had to go back to Beijing for the funeral.
No one dares to be the one to give advice. What if Su Yueling has an accident on the road?
Su Yueling is now much more important than Kangjun Wang Rongjue.
It didn't take long for someone to vaguely report the cause of Rong Jue's death. Many people knew about Rong Ji's private trip to Beijing. Later, in order to avoid the news being exposed, he traveled under the stars and covered with moonlight, which made him suffer from a high fever and finally died here.
above.
A county prince sneaking out of the capital without an imperial edict is something that can make a big fuss. If it weren't for his guilty conscience, why would he rush on his way? Now that he's dead, it's more like God can't bear to see him.
punishment.
Many people privately said that Rong Jue had suffered retribution.
Under such circumstances, Prince Kang's funeral seemed quite deserted. Although everyone's etiquette was in place, they only maintained superficial courtesy, and the memorial ceremony sent was in vain. Even the original and
The families that Prince Kang's family was friendly with all became indifferent. The head of the family basically didn't come, and only the juniors lined up to offer incense sticks.
Princess Kang was almost pissed to death by the snobbery of these people. But the gossip in the capital also reached her ears. After Rong Jue's death, Princess Kang asked the real story from the mouths of Manager Tao and others. She
I also feel very guilty. I really don't dare to argue with other families. I really don't have the confidence.
The only thing that comforted her was that after the prince passed away, her Hai'er successfully inherited the title and became the new Prince Kang. In the future, she would not have to worry about other children in the family threatening her son's status, and she herself would become an important figure.
An absolute dowager.
Thinking of this, the newly released Kang Taifei's original sadness disappeared a little.
During this period of time, Rong Hai's fiancée Liu Yueya has been by Concubine Kang's side, which can be said to be extremely considerate. After more than a month, Liu Yueya's already small face lost a lot of weight. She also stayed in the capital for two years.
The original childishness faded a bit, and the figure began to show the gracefulness of a girl.
It must be said that in the past, Concubine Kang liked Liu Yueya very much. She thought she was simple and lovely, had a noble destiny, and had the appearance of a phoenix.
However, after the marriage was agreed upon, Haier did not get any benefits from it, and her husband even died. Concubine Kang couldn't help but doubt the authenticity of her destiny. Was it really not just a boast?
Now that the prince is dead, no matter how many grudges he had with the emperor during his lifetime, they have been wiped out with his death. The emperor should not be able to take out his anger on Haier. At this time, her son no longer needs to hide his clumsiness like before, but
He needs strong support from his wife and family.
Although Liu Yueya's biological father has been pardoned, he is only a commoner now and can't really help Prince Kang's Mansion.
So Princess Kang began to dislike Liu Yueya. How could she, a commoner's daughter, be worthy of her outstanding son? She was as if she had been poisoned before, so how could she take the initiative to marry her?
If we find a chance, we must dissolve this marriage!
The only thing that comforted her was that after her husband's death, Haier had to observe filial piety for three years, and during this period she could not get married. She had plenty of time to manage his marriage.
…
Su Yueling, who was still in Guangning County, continued to be ill until forty-nine days after her illness, her body gradually recovered.
Others look haggard when they are sick, but she is white and rosy. She reads storybooks and movies every day in the room, and is very happy.
It was already July, and she was not in a hurry to return to the capital. Her cousin Su Tianbao was going to take the scholar exam this year, and the results would be out in August.
If Su Tianbao passes the exam this year, he will be taken to Beijing to study at the Imperial College.
As her cousin, Su Tianbao attracted quite a lot of attention. The imperial examination was of vital importance, so Su Yueling arranged a lot of guards around him to prevent his cousin from being accidentally recruited.
Especially when it comes to cheating on scientific examinations, you definitely can't get involved, as it will ruin your reputation for life.
However, Su Tianbao himself did not attract as much hatred as Yuan Suijun before him, and given Su Yueling's status, few people really attacked him.
Zhang Chengwang also knew that Su Tianbao was going to take the college examination, but he also had to prepare for the provincial examination. After knowing this, he just laughed and thought that Su Tianbao was daydreaming.
He failed in the last provincial examination and was ridiculed. Now three years have passed, and without Yuan Suijun as a rival to disturb his mind, he will give full play to his strength and strive to become Jieyuan and avenge his previous shame.
Su Tianbao really couldn't catch his eye.
He also knew that Su Tianbao's talent was only above average, so he would definitely be on the list this time just like last time.
He packed his luggage in early August and went to the state capital to prepare for the exam. If he went there early, he could prepare earlier.
His wife, Gu Liniang, was looking forward to him winning the exam so that she could become the wife of the exam, so she specially gave Zhang Chengwang 20 taels of silver. The state capital was no more expensive than Guangning County. Especially when the provincial examination was approaching, the inn near the examination room was afraid of being crowded.
Full.
Gu Liniang said sincerely, "My husband is extremely talented. This time he will definitely win the title of Toad Palace and become a blockbuster."
Zhang Chengwang was particularly concerned about these words. After looking at the twenty taels, he thought of business again, "You also hid the twenty taels in private?"
Twenty taels is not a small amount. It can be seen that Liniang's private money is more than this. She talks about her deep friendship, which is not the case at all.
Zhang Chengwang's face suddenly turned ugly. This chapter has been completed!
