Regarding Gou Qingyun's question, Dong Nuan nodded: "I still remember."
Hearing Dong Nuan say that she remembered, Gou Qingyun's interest became high again: "Her father, Mr. Li, who used to be a colleague, was demoted to a commoner, and the whole family was exiled to Chenzhou in the southwest. Chenzhou is a land of smog and miasma.
I don’t know if I can survive.”
Directly demoted to common people and even exiled?
After hearing the news, Dong Nuan was a little surprised and asked in a low voice: "Did you commit something?"
If the matter hadn't gone too far, he probably wouldn't have been demoted directly from a fourth-grade official to this level.
This way of handling it seems that there is no way for him to survive at all.
Although it is said that there is an ex-wife who is unhappy with him and is eyeing him, but without any evidence and reasons, they cannot deal with the court officials at will, right?
Regarding this matter, Gou Qingyun quickly explained: "It's a big deal. You also know that Mr. Li is confused about backyard matters. In the past, he killed his wife because he spoiled his concubine, and he made her angry and ran away.
After that, his favorite concubine could not be rehabilitated, so he simply did not remarry. Of course, it may be because no one was willing to marry into his house."
Speaking of this, Gou Qingyun took a sip of tea and continued: "His beloved concubine gave him three sons and one daughter. As you know, the daughter is Miss Li Qiaoli. She has three sons. The eldest son is a dandy and is careless every day.
, often running around for fun in the name of studying abroad. It is said that he raped a girl in a foreign land and killed the whole family. He thought he was hiding it, but it turned out to be a coincidence. Prince Xingyang happened to be passing by and happened upon this incident.
The matter must be checked accurately, and then His Majesty will know about it. When Your Majesty was angry, Mr. Li was demoted, and of course the young master who killed someone was sentenced to beheading at that time."
Prince Xingyang, Dong Nuan really knows that the people in their house have picked peaches in their own farm in summer.
It was the county lord and the young master from the other party's house who came over. They were both very pleasant-tempered and easy to get along with. Before leaving, they even gave Dong Nuan some small gifts.
They looked very attentive, Dong Nuan had a good impression of them.
The Prince of Xingyang County is not a man who loves power. He is usually more obsessed with the art of painting. He often travels around and does not care about court affairs.
His Majesty is also quite partial to him. After all, the emperor really feels good about the emperor's relative who is not obsessed with power.
Now that I heard that I met this person, Dong Nuan was not surprised about the outcome of Mr. Li's family.
After all, although Prince Xingyang ignores court affairs, he is a man with a sense of justice.
The last thing he wants to see is the use of power to suppress others, or the powerful taking advantage of the situation.
It was also Mr. Li's bad luck that he met him, but the other son's behavior must be because of the blessing of the Li family. Maybe this is not the first time.
It's just pitiful, that innocent little girl and her whole family.
"That girl's family is really pitiful." After hearing this, Dong Nuan sighed softly.
Gou Qingyun was on the side. After hearing this, she felt uncomfortable, and sighed: "Yes, as a woman, I also feel that she is too miserable, and I don't know how she will live in the future."
Neither of them wanted to talk too much about this topic and quickly moved on to other topics.
Dong Nuan has been living in Cao Mansion recently. After all, she wants to get married from here.
The two little girls chatted for most of the day. Because the wedding was approaching and the warm winter made it difficult to go to Zhuangzi, they could not take Gou Qingyun to visit Zhuangzi.
The climate in Beijing is slightly cooler, and by October there aren’t many flowers anymore.
However, some cold-resistant flowers can still bloom, and there are still a lot of them. The winter warmth has allowed the green bamboos and the others to take care of it, and the maids around them have chosen some more capable ones to follow, so that they will not miss her work.
Gou Qingyun wanted to see it, but she was not in a hurry at this moment.
At this time in the academy, Hanjiang Tower also knew about Mr. Li.
He really didn't inquire about this matter deliberately, but overheard the two wives chatting.
The master did not avoid them, he just chatted casually and then sighed.
In fact, Hanjiang Tower has already intervened in Master Li's matter before. After all, Dong Nuan said that Miss Li was not friendly to her, and Hanjiang Tower knew the outcome of Master Li, so he intervened early.
, and sent the matter to the transfer envoy.
However, he didn't care about the follow-up matters anymore. He felt that such an important official was dissatisfied with Mr. Li, so he might take notice of it in the future.
That adult was indeed attentive and avoided the murderous case that Hanjiang Tower heard about in his previous life.
However, without a ready-made case, there was no way to deal with the Li family. After that, the adult took back the people he sent to keep an eye on them.
Then, Mr. Li realized that no one was watching him. After testing it several times, he became more courageous.
Later, he robbed someone else's girl and killed his whole family.
After Hanjianglou heard this, he sighed in his heart and didn't know what to say for a while.
However, this matter was quickly forgotten. The gears of fate were not something he, a mortal, could decide and turn, so there was no use thinking too much.
Besides, he is getting married soon.
He doesn't want to think too much about these things, and it's not helpful for him to study.
Because he was getting married, the Imperial College gave him a five-day holiday.
This is because of his good knowledge, Master, otherwise the academy would have two days off.
The five-day holiday is not long, and besides holding a wedding, I can't do much.
However, Hanjiang Tower is already satisfied.
After all, he is going to die soon after the New Year, so now he naturally has to study harder.
On the fifth day of October, Hanjianglou returned home from the academy and began to prepare for the wedding.
To show his sincerity, he went to the mountains in the suburbs and shot two wild geese back.
Other people's betrothal gifts have this, and Hanjianglou also wants his beloved little girl to have it too.
Therefore, he ran out specially and worked hard for most of the day. That is to say, he had the same skills in his previous life. He has never let go of it in this life, although it may not be as good as in his previous life.
However, it is still easy to hunt two geese.
Everyone in the Cao Mansion was quite surprised when two lively geese were delivered to the house.
Sending live geese as betrothal gifts is indeed a part of the wedding process, but more often than not, the princes of each mansion do not do it themselves, but send their masters up the mountain to catch them.
It's still rare to see people like this caught in person.
But it can prove one thing, that is, the importance of winter warmth.
Mrs. Cao looked at the live geese and couldn't help but smile and said, "They are all good children."
Mrs. Cao looked on from the side and nodded: "Indeed, thank you for your hard work, brothers and sisters."
This is a compliment to Mrs. Cao next to her.
After all, Dong Nuan was able to get involved with the Cao family because of Mrs. Cao’s hard work when she was in Liangzhou.
Mrs. Cao Er felt that she deserved this.
After all, this matter was actually due to the fact that Cao Xinyao and Dong Nuan got along well in temperament at first, and because Dong Nuan behaved well, she came up with the idea of acknowledging her relatives.
Nowadays, many things seem to be destined by God.
Mrs. Cao Er pursed her lips lightly, and the smile on her face became much thicker.
