Chun'an Bo's Mansion has long lost the peace and harmony of the past. It is already early spring, but it still feels like it is in the bitter cold. There is a miserable atmosphere everywhere in the mansion.
In the hall, families gathered together, some complained, some cried, and even the old lady who was feeling unwell was forced to come out.
Things happened too fast, and after all, I couldn't hide it from the old lady. When the old lady knew the news, she was silent for a long time and could only sigh that it was so evil and ridiculous.
The old lady only regretted that she had left all the household affairs to her daughter-in-law early because of her poor health, and had neglected to discipline her children and grandchildren, which had led to the current disaster.
"The disaster was caused by Xu Zhaolin. His Highness the Regent and General Luo won't take offense at our family, right?" Someone couldn't help but asked in a low voice.
"In the past few days, those officials have been impeaching my eldest brother. I think my eldest brother should give up his title immediately. This title was earned while my father was still alive. The court cannot anger our entire Chun'an residence because of my brother's affair."
"What's the use of talking about this now? The title of the Earl's House is gone when the uncle comes." After the Earl, only Zizhi Shaoyin, who is favored by the court, is left. Although it is an unwritten rule, since it is the favor of the court, it is natural.
You can choose not to add it.
Now that such a scandal has occurred in the Xu family, it would be lucky if the regent doesn't pursue the matter further.
The second wife couldn't help complaining: "Zhaolin is so ridiculous! Why should Luo Da's eldest daughter be dissatisfied with marrying him? Such a thing happened! It's all about him, and he has brought trouble to the entire Xu family.
,I……"
"Okay!" Mrs. Xu opened her eyes tiredly and glanced at her daughter-in-law. She had dizziness, which had become more and more serious in the past few days due to these things.
At this moment, he could only hold on and take charge of the overall situation, "Things are already like this, what's the use of saying this?"
Mrs. Xu said: "Mother, the Xu family will be like this in the future, but we can't miss the future of a few children."
Mrs. Xu glanced at her calmly and said, "What do you want?"
The second lady gritted her teeth, looked at each other with her husband and said, "Let's separate our families!" If they had been unwilling to separate their families in the past, even if they did not inherit the title, they would still be members of a distinguished family in Shangyong as long as they lived in the Earl's Mansion.
But now, because of Xu Zhaolin, the reputation of the Xu family is in ruins. If they stay here any longer, others will probably treat their own children as if they were raised like Xu Zhaolin, and it will be difficult for them to even get married, let alone their future.
They didn't feel guilty about this. Although they all had their own selfish motives, to be fair, even if they couldn't teach their children to be gentlemen and saints, they never thought they would teach children who behaved like this.
During the days when the eldest daughter of the Luo family married into the Xu family, everyone in the house was very polite to her. In addition to not daring to offend her because of her status and background, wasn't it more because they knew that they had to rely on others?
Since you want others' benefits, you should make some concessions.
It turns out that Dafang is quite courageous, and he actually hides such disgusting things secretly!
Chun Anbo raised his head and looked at everyone's expressions, feeling somewhat clear in his heart.
He said sadly to Mrs. Xu: "Mother, what has happened is that our big house can't live with everyone. If we want to separate, let's separate."
Mrs. Xu had no choice but to agree.
Before everyone started discussing the matter of dividing the family, the sound of officials from the Ministry of Personnel arriving was heard outside the door.
Uncle Chun'an's heart tightened, and he quickly got up, packed his clothes, and went out to greet him.
The person who came from the Ministry of Civil Affairs was not an important figure, just a doctor from the fifth rank of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The other party brought an edict from the court: Uncle Chun'an indulged his female relatives and failed to educate his children. On the order of His Highness the Regent, Chun'an was cut off.
The title of Countess.
He knew it well at first, but when the imperial edict actually came, Chun Anbo was hit hard.
He took the edict, tried his best to send away the officials who came to deliver the order, turned back to the lobby and glanced at the familiar faces in the lobby, and finally couldn't help but his eyes went dark and he fainted.
The affairs of Chun'an Bo's Mansion have been very turbulent in Shangyong for a while, not only because this matter is really weird and bloody, but also because many people secretly fanned the flames.
Many people couldn't wait to get over the fact that the Minister of Civil Affairs and the students of the two academies were ruined in Anlan Academy, so they naturally wanted to vigorously promote the marriage between the Luo family and the Xu family. Although the government's verdict was clear, Luo Mingxiang still received a lot of criticism.
After the initial excitement and novelty passed, many old scholars came forward to criticize the Luo family and Luo Mingxiang for being too ruthless.
Just because her husband had an extramarital affair, she just reconciled and sent her husband and mother-in-law directly to prison, which even caused the Chun'an family to lose their title. The Xu family originally married Luo Mingxiang, who was abducted by the gangsters.
The women who have gone through this are simply in trouble for eight lifetimes.
Some people even boasted that if something like that happened to Luo Mingxiang on his wedding day, it was obviously an unlucky birthright.
But no matter how these people talked, Xu Zhaolin and Mrs. Xu were still put in the cell.
After the Xu family separated at an extremely fast speed, Chun Anbo left Shangyong with his mother and several children and returned to his hometown. Before leaving, Chun Anbo visited his wife and son in the cell and told them that they would be together after their sentences.
Go back to your hometown to look for them.
Seeing that her husband seemed to have aged ten years suddenly, and knowing that her natal family had severed ties with her, Mrs. Xu finally couldn't help but burst into tears.
Seeing his wife's appearance, Chun Anbo finally softened his heart.
After leaving some money behind to take care of the prison guards, he left with some staggering steps.
While the people in Shangyong were discussing the feud between the Luo and Xu families with great interest, Luo Mingxiang was spending his days leisurely in Zhuangzi outside the city.
In the blink of an eye, it is early March, and there is already a vibrant scene outside the imperial city with red flowers and green willows. This Zhuangzi is one of Luo Mingxiang’s dowries. The inside and outside of Zhuangzi are full of peach blossoms. This year’s spring came a little late, but at this time Zhuangzi came to
The peach blossoms are already in full bloom.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Luo Mingxiang walked in the peach forest holding his belly that was already somewhat visible, followed by Luo Junyao in a light blue shirt.
"Eldest brother and Ari's wedding is coming soon, and you have to go to Anlan Academy from time to time. Aren't you supposed to be very busy? Why do you still have time to come to my place?" Luo Mingxiang asked with a smile as he looked at his sister walking beside him.
Luo Mingxiang said: "I just came out of the academy and stopped by to see eldest sister. How are eldest sisters these days?"
Luo Mingxiang smiled and said: "I'm fine, but I'm a little too busy. I said I would stay at home to help my mother, but my mother didn't like me being a hindrance and kicked me out of the city."
Luo Jun shook his head and said: "I think mother did the right thing. The Luo family is in a mess these days, and it is better to stay quiet outside the city and keep healthy."
In fact, they all understood that Mrs. Su was afraid that Luo Mingxiang would feel sad after hearing the rumors outside, so she drove her daughter outside the city to recuperate.
Luo Mingxiang raised his hand and folded a peach blossom, and said with a sweet smile: "That's okay, no one dares to ask me to do anything like this anyway, and I still need others to take care of me. Is the academy okay?" Staying at the Luo family still has some problems.
Facing her mother's apologetic and distressed eyes, she didn't know how to convince her mother that she was really not that sad.
Luo Junyao said cheerfully: "Everything goes well. Those people suffered a lot in the academy last time. I guess they will have to go around Anlan Academy in the next two years."
Luo Junyao frowned slightly and said, "How did I hear that Cheng'enhou Mansion and several others are planning to build some kind of Yuxiu Academy? Are they trying to compete with you?"
Luo Jun shrugged and said with a smile, "Big sister is really well-informed."
Luo Mingxiang swept the hair on her shoulder with the flower branch in his hand and said: "Two days ago, the third young lady of the Duke of Lu's mansion came out of the city to visit me. I heard what she said. Aren't you worried?"
Luo Jun shook his head and said: "What's there to worry about? The more academies there are, the better. As for who can have the last laugh, it all depends on their ability. Without mentioning this, when will the eldest sister be born? The eldest sister said before that she wants to go
Does it take next year to become a teacher in the academy?"
Luo Mingxiang thought for a moment and said, "Early August, right? If you are in a hurry and need people, September or October will do."
Luo Junyao shook his head repeatedly, "Forget it, my mother can't forgive me if I tire my eldest sister. I'd better take a good rest and wait until my body recovers."
Luo Mingxiang smiled and said: "I'm fine, but you are very busy every day. You are still young. Don't worry about so many good things all the time. Your own body is important."
Luo Junyao leaned on Luo Mingxiang's shoulder and said softly: "I know, big sister, don't worry. Don't look at me running around all day long. In fact, others are doing everything, and I can't be tired."
Luo Mingxiang smiled and said nothing.
Although Luo Junyao consciously felt energetic and did not do anything, in the eyes of outsiders she had done many things that others could not and dare not do.
Whether before or after getting married or now, Luo Mingxiang is very popular and has many friends. In the past, when these friends talked about Luo Junyao, they would inevitably feel a little resentful towards Luo Mingxiang, but now they are very different when talking about Luo Junyao.
Although they did not say it directly, Luo Mingxiang could also see their envy and yearning for Luo Junyao.
It's not that I envy her identity and status as the regent princess, but her freedom to do whatever she wants and her courage to do it.
The two were chatting happily when Ling Lan suddenly appeared in front of Taolin. She quickly walked up to Luo Junyao and said, "Princess, our people just caught two people outside Zhuangzi."
Hearing this, both of them were stunned. Luo Junyao frowned and said, "Who?" Is there someone in the Xu family who is unwilling to harass the eldest sister? Or is it someone who has a conflict of interest with the Luo family and wants to harm the eldest sister?
Ling Lan whispered: "One of them is injured. He is said to be a student who went to Beijing to take the exam, and the other is the second girl of the Liu family."
"The second girl from the Liu family?" Luo Junyao and Luo Mingxiang looked at each other, and Luo Mingxiang asked: "Is it the second girl from the Liu family who just came back?"
Ling Lan nodded and said: "It's the second girl. Miss Liu said she accidentally met the scholar who was injured and wanted to come here for help. They didn't know that this is the eldest girl's property."
Luo Junyao frowned and said, "I remember Liu Ruoqiu was in class at the academy today. Big sister, this Zhuangzi is not on the only way to the academy."
Luo Mingxiang said: "That's all, since they are injured and are asking for help, let's take care of their injuries first." After saying that, he couldn't help but said: "My Zhuangzi seems to be very close to the injured person."
But no, the last time Qu Tiange was injured, he happened to bump into her Zhuangzi, and it was all while she was there.
The two returned to the small courtyard on Zhuangzi and sat down. Ling Lan quickly led the two of them into the hall. Seeing Luo Junyao, Liu Ruoqiu's eyes lit up and she quickly lowered her head in embarrassment.
During her time in the academy, Liu Ruoqiu had undergone some changes compared to when she first came back. Her skin color and complexion were still a little bad, but they were much better than when she first came back, and her etiquette seemed much smoother and more skillful.
Luo Junyao asked the teacher at the academy that Liu Ruoqiu was not very good at basics but worked very hard. The teacher admired her very much and said some kind words for her in front of Luo Junyao.
"I've met the Princess Regent." Liu Ruoqiu hurriedly stepped forward to salute, but what came in with her was a young man with some scars on his face and obviously some damage to his left arm.
The young man was obviously startled when he heard the words "Princess Regent" and quickly followed suit. Because of his injuries and haste, his movements seemed a bit nondescript.
Luo Junyao smiled and said, "No need to be polite, this is my eldest sister."
Liu Ruoqiu had obviously heard about Luo Mingxiang, but she didn't show any strange expression on her face. She just smiled slightly and said, "I've met Miss Luo."
Luo Mingxiang smiled and said: "Miss Liu, there is no need to be polite. Please sit down, please."
The two looked at each other, then thanked Luo Mingxiang and sat down with some restraint.
After the girl brought the tea, Luo Junyao looked at the two of them and asked, "I heard that this young master came to Shangyong to take the exam. Did you two... know each other before?"
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The young man said quickly: "Hui, I don't know Princess Hui. I only met Miss Liu today. It's... this Miss Liu."
, saved me."
"Rescue?" Luo Junyao raised his eyebrows, "Looking at this young master's appearance, is it possible that there are still robbers near Shangyong? Or have you encountered some gangsters who are blocking the road and extorting money?"
The young man smiled bitterly and looked up at Luo Mingxiang and Luo Junyao, who were hesitant.
Liu Ruoqiu looked at him and couldn't help but whisper: "The princess is a good person."
Luo Junyao couldn't help but laugh after hearing this. Whether she was considered a good person or not really depends on what happened.
People like Xu Zhaolin and Yu Chen definitely don't think she is a good person.
The young man gritted his teeth and seemed to be struggling.
After a long while, he finally stood up suddenly, walked to the center of the flower hall, knelt on the ground and said: "I want to file a petition! Please help the regent princess!"
"Complain?" Luo Junyao frowned slightly and said, "Aren't you here to take the exam?"
The young man choked slightly, his eyes were filled with fire, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I am indeed a student rushing to take the exam in the spring of this year, but I also have to file a lawsuit. I thought... if I can successfully enter Beijing to take the exam, if
If you can pass the Jinshi examination, you will have the opportunity to enter the palace to meet His Highness the Regent when the time comes..."
"You want to file a complaint at the palace examination?" Luo Mingxiang said solemnly: "Do you know what the crime is for disrupting the palace examination?"
The young man gritted his teeth and said: "I know, but I have to do it! Only now do I know that those people would never have given me this opportunity! If I hadn't met this Miss Liu today and came here again..."
There was silence in the flower hall for a moment, and Luo Junyao sighed and said, "Tell me, what are you doing?"
