In the Marquis Yueyang's Mansion, Jiang Che knelt in front of his mother and said with red eyes: "Mom, don't worry, the child will work hard to study and practice martial arts, and strive to make achievements as soon as possible. He will definitely earn back the imperial title granted by mother."
Mrs. Jiang touched her son's little head and said, "Silly boy, just don't blame your mother."
Jiang Che lay on his mother's lap and said, "Why should I blame you?"
Mrs. Jiang said: "After today, what happened in our family... I'm afraid it will spread throughout Shangyong. If you hear other people's gossip, won't you feel sad? If mother could be more patient..."
Jiang Che firmly interrupted his mother and said, "My child did nothing wrong, and neither did my mother. It was my father who did something wrong! Since we are not wrong, why should we be afraid of what others will say?"
"Besides, Taifu has taught me that a man's success in the world depends on his achievements. I don't care what others say."
Having said this, Jiang Che felt a little depressed again, "Mother, the child will grow up quickly." He is still young and cannot go to the battlefield to perform meritorious service, nor can he become the support and pride of his mother.
Mrs. Jiang said happily: "Don't worry, mother believes that my son will be an upright man in the future."
Jiang Che said solemnly: "I won't be like my father."
Jiang Che couldn't agree with his father's actions from the bottom of his heart. Not only did he hurt his mother, he was also not a good thing to Han, mother and son.
Otherwise, why did Mr. Han commit suicide yesterday?
Even though there is an element of drama, if you can, who would want to make a cut on their wrist if they have nothing to do?
And those two children were destined to be illegitimate children from the moment they entered Shangyong.
Although they were still young and didn't understand anything, Jiang Che didn't sympathize with them.
Because their existence hurt his mother, and their misfortune was caused by their father, they were opposed to him from the beginning.
"Of course, Ah Che is my mother's son." Mrs. Jiang said with a smile.
The mother and son are living happily here, but in the bedroom in the living room on the other side, the atmosphere is very gloomy.
Jiang Guanmu went out early in the morning, but was carried back.
For fear of scaring the children, Han asked someone to take the two children away early.
Looking at Jiang Guanmu's beaten and bloody back, Han sat on the bedside and burst into tears.
"Doctor, how is the injury of Mr. Hou?"
The old doctor took out a few bottles of medicine from the medicine box and put them on the table. He sighed and said: "The wound in the palace is not light. The medicine is changed every morning, noon and evening. I will also take the medicine internally. Mr. Hou
Take it for a few days. As long as there is no fever and the wound is not inflamed within these seven days, the problem will not be serious. But for more than half a month, I am afraid that Mr. Hou will have no choice but to lie down like this."
Looking at the injury, it would be merciful not to break the bone.
Marquis Yueyang just returned to the capital yesterday. He either committed suicide or was beaten, and he never stopped.
"Thank you, doctor."
Han ordered people to send the doctor out. Looking at Jiang Guanmu's pale face, he sobbed in distress, "Master Marquis, what happened? Who is so cruel that he beat you like this?"
Jiang Guanmu lay on the bed with his head tilted and looked at the woman sitting next to him. His mood was very complicated at this time.
While kneeling in the palace to be tortured, he couldn't help but recall many things.
Why did you hide the Han family's affairs from your wife in the first place?
Because he and the Xu family were in love at first, and when he met the Han family, his feelings for the Xu family had not faded away. He had the same thoughts as many of the soldiers stationed at the border.
Border places don't pay much attention to that. Even if Han stays with her for a few years, he will still be able to get married in the future.
Gradually, his feelings for Han became deeper and deeper, and he felt more and more sorry for his wife.
Every time he read Xu's thoughts in his letters, his hand holding the pen felt heavier and heavier.
After he completely fell in love with the Han family and the twins were born, his more thoughts turned to not wanting to wrong the Han family.
The Han family's parentage and the fact that the concubine gave birth to a child when her identity was unknown meant that the elders of the Jiang family were destined to be very dissatisfied with her.
He couldn't predict how Xu would react when he found out about this?
Will she run to Yanzhou? Will she embarrass the Han family? Will she take away the two children and bring them to her to raise them, as the Han family worries?
Finally, he thought...that's it, everyone is in peace with each other and can live with it for a year.
Later, he didn't know when he had the absurd idea of marrying Han as his wife.
At this time, looking at the tearful woman in front of him, Jiang Guanmu closed his eyes and said in his heart: "Forget it, let's leave it like this. He still loves her, and they have two well-behaved children. Xu got what she wanted.
Yes, Ah Che inherited the title, he stayed with her and their two children, and just lived like this.
Jiang Guanmu reached out to hold Han's hand and whispered: "You and the two children will stay in this yard these days and don't go out as much. When I feel better from my injury, we will move out."
"What?" Han looked at Jiang Guanmu in shock, thinking that he heard wrongly.
Move out? Why are they moving out?
Moreover, what the Lord Hou means is that he will move out with them?
Jiang Guanmu secretly took a breath because of the injury on his back, and said: "I have informed the regent...to pass on the title to Ache. Husband...Mrs. Xu does not allow you to enter. From now on, Ache will be the master of Yueyang Marquis Mansion."
Now, you can’t get any benefits from staying here. Let’s move out and live our own lives.”
Thinking that the Han family was worried about their future life, Jiang Guanmu said: "Don't worry, although the Yueyang Marquis Mansion was given to A Che, I still have a lot of private property, which is enough for us to live."
Han's eyes were red and he hesitated for a long time before saying: "Then...the marriage between the Marquis and his wife..."
Jiang Guanmu said in a deep voice: "I will not reconcile, nor will I divorce my wife. A'che is still a child. Since she has won the title for him, she will never want to leave the Yueyang Marquis Mansion and live happily alone!"
He never thought about getting divorced or even divorcing his wife. He did love Mrs. Han more, but this did not mean that he could tolerate Mr. Xu leaving him and remarrying.
It is true that the second marriage of women these days is not as popular as it was when the country was first founded, but it does not mean that it is not possible or impossible.
The Xu family has a good reputation in Luodu and is known as an expert in managing families and governing affairs.
She also has a large dowry and a son who will inherit the title. After the divorce, no one may want to marry her.
Jiang Guanmu must completely eliminate this possibility.
Han lowered his head and remained silent.
Tears fell silently on Jiang Guanmu's back drop by drop.
She felt her bandaged wrist becoming more and more painful, and her eyes were full of confusion and unwillingness.
In this way... what exactly did she gain?
That woman's son had already inherited the title when he was only ten years old.
But her child is still an illegitimate child? She still doesn’t even have a birthright?
Before Han entered the capital, she thought about many possibilities. She even thought about how she would be tortured by Xu, how she would endure it, and how she would hold the Marquis's heart tightly.
But she never thought that Mrs. Xu didn't even bother to compete with her for a man, so she drove her and Jiang Guanmu out of the Hou Mansion.
No matter what Han thinks, things will not change according to her will.
Three days later, Jiang Guanmu, who was still lying on his bed, received the order from the court.
Canonize Jiang Che, the crown prince of Marquis Yueyang, as the new Marquis of Yueyang.
For a child who is only ten years old to succeed a marquis and become the youngest marquis in Da Sheng, this is naturally enough to shock both the government and the public.
At the same time, the story of Jiang Guanmu's confinement at the border and his remarriage, forcing his first wife to accept an outside wife as his wife, and the story of Mrs. Jiang abandoning her imperial concubine title and going to the palace to file a complaint spread throughout Shangyong, and spread very quickly.
The ground speed is transmitted to places other than Shangyong.
When Jiang Guanmu rode his horse across the street with Mei, there was some news in Shangyong City.
Now that this news came out, some people criticized Mrs. Jiang for being jealous and cruel, while others praised Mrs. Jiang for being strong and bold, and a hero among women.
Some people are worried about the future of the Yueyang Marquis Mansion, thinking that one child cannot support the Yueyang Marquis Mansion.
Others commented on the regent's handling of the matter. Some thought the regent's punishment was excessive, while others thought it was just right and even quite humane.
After all, the mistake was made by Jiang Guanmu himself. The regent neither seized the title nor imprisoned the person, but only gave him a hundred canes and a reduced sentence. Isn't this magnanimous enough?
Even the regent, for the sake of the achievements of the ancestors of the Jiang family and Jiang Guanmu, allowed the Jiang family to be promoted to a noble rank without being demoted.
If the title is passed down according to the normal tradition, the Yueyang Marquis Mansion will be downgraded to an Earl's Mansion in Jiang Che's generation.
This kind of grace is definitely enough to make up for Jiang Guanmu's hard work and military exploits over the years, or even more.
Of course, the most ridiculed one was Jiang Guanmu.
There is such a thing as the Tomb of Heroes of Beauty Village, and there is such a thing as a hero with a long love for his children and a short breath. There are even some good people who promote Jiang Guanmu as the most infatuated man in Dasheng.
Of course, on the other hand, Jiang Guanmu was rated by some women and most men as the representative figure of Dasheng's number one sex act, Ling Zhihuan.
In one fell swoop, Han surpassed all the beauties on Shangyong's various beauty lists, and was very likely to win the first prize.
In short, everything was covered at once.
Even the regent's efforts to quell the Qingzhou rebellion and repel Gaoyu's invasion within a few months have to be postponed.
After all, where is the fragrance of romance, moon and gossip in the affairs of the court?
In the Prince Regent's Palace, after the martial arts class, several children gathered around Jiang Che to greet him.
Even the fat little Zheng Jingfeng, who had always been silly, looked at Jiang Che cautiously, as if he was afraid that Jiang Che would cry suddenly.
Xie Cheng sat next to Jiang Che and said, "Ache, how are you...?"
Jiang Che said: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am very kind."
Xie Cheng frowned and said, "Didn't I say that we are friends? In the imperial uncle's house, please don't call me Your Majesty. Call me A Cheng."
Jiang Che smiled, nodded and said, "Thank you A Cheng for your concern, and thank you too."
He knows that several of his friends care about him.
Su Xun said: "Don't take it to heart, my great-grandfather said that General Mu Jie will definitely regret it."
Although Su Xun is smart, he still cannot fully understand what his great-grandfather meant.
I just feel that what the old man said is right, and Ache and Mrs. Jiang are much better than the woman and child raised outside. Jiang Guanmu will definitely regret it.
Jiang Che said: "Thank you Ah Xun, I don't take it to heart. I just want... to grow up quickly."
"I think so too!" Zheng Jingfeng raised his chubby hand and said, "However, Ah Che, you are already a marquis, so you need to grow up to be more imposing." As he said this, he made an expression that he thought he was imposing, attracting everyone.
They all laughed.
Xie Cheng patted Jiang Che's shoulder quite maturely and said, "My imperial uncle said that it is not good to encourage growth. You should do what you should do at your age, and don't be anxious."
"Okay." Jiang Che smiled lightly.
"Let's go." Luo Junyao looked at a few children sitting on the edge of the martial arts field talking and laughing, turned to Ling Lan behind him and said, "It seems A Che doesn't need us to worry."
Ling Lan said: "Princess, I heard that someone in the court is talking about it. I should find a companion for Your Majesty."
As for who to replace, it's obvious.
Luo Junyao sneered, "It's up to them whether to change people or not? Ah Cheng and the children get along very well, so I won't change them."
"Yes. The slave will let others reveal the princess's intentions," Ling Lan said.
While the people of Yong were chatting about the matters in the Yueyang Marquis' Mansion after tea and dinner, there was not a single thing missing in the court.
The Wuwei army who went to Qingzhou escorted the prisoners of the Cao family and returned them to the court, but the Zhenguo army stayed in Qingzhou and did not accompany them.
Also returning with the Wuwei Army were Xie Xiao, Chen Xun, Ye Feng and others, as well as Xu Chengyu and Zheng Jingchuan.
Prince Shi Dai, the head of the palace who was transferred directly from Jiazhou to Qingzhou and whom Luo Junyao never even met, was also left in Qingzhou to deal with the aftermath.
Xu Chengyu and Zheng Jingchuan made a lot of progress after playing an exciting game with Luo Junyao.
Being thrown into the army by Luo Junyao, he was no longer squeamish and had achieved some military exploits, which made him worthy of Xie Yan taking them on an expedition this time.
The imperial court tried the Cao family's rebellion case vigorously and resolutely.
In one day, hundreds of heads fell to the ground.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Fortunately, not many officials in Shangyong were implicated this time, and it did not cause another bloody storm in Shangyong officialdom.
Bai Cu's notebook was finally handed over by Cao Mian.
I don't know if Cao Mian was looking away from death, but he used this notebook to exchange for the freedom of his newborn grandson.
It must be understood that even if the imperial court spared no effort to kill children who were not yet old enough to dance as elephants, these people would still be punished as slaves or even sent to the frontier.
Along with Cao Mian, Ruan Ting also went to hell with a glass of poisonous wine.
It can be regarded as retaining the last trace of dignity for these two people who once played an important role in Dasheng.
By the time everything was done, even the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet had passed, and it was already the end of August.
The weather in Shangyong has been very good since the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the air is filled with the rich aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus.
Xie Yan was sitting in the study, looking through a notebook. Luo Junyao came in from the outside with brisk steps and asked curiously: "Do you still have Bai Cu's notebook?"
Xie Yan pulled her into his arms and sat down, saying softly: "Where have you gone?"
Luo Junyao said: "I went to Anlan Academy, and then I went to the weaving workshop and the weapons research and development department when I came back."
Xie Yan smiled and said: "Shao Yao is busier than me?"
Luo Junyao leaned in his arms and said: "His Royal Highness the Regent has been busy from the beginning of the year to now, so he deserves a few days of rest. You have been looking at your notes every day these days. Have you seen any clues?"
Luo Junyao read Bai Cu's notes as soon as he got them.
But it's a little disappointing. In Luo Junyao's opinion, this thing is more like a diary of a cool male protagonist.
Although the ending of this cool novel is not good in the end, because the diary stopped long before his death, it is really a great cool novel with a happy ending.
Xie Yan said: "It's a bit interesting."
"What's the point?" Luo Junyao asked.
Xie Yan said: "Although Cao Mian's rebellion is inseparable from him, this notebook can be regarded as an indispensable contribution."
Luo Junyao thought for a moment, "Did you read Emperor Chen Wu's entrepreneurial history and be inspired to decide that he would also create a grand hegemony?"
It's similar to the kind of business stories or autobiographies of big shots in previous lives that told people to quit their jobs and start a business.
Xie Yan chuckled lightly, raised his hand to rub her hair and said: "Maybe there is a reason for this, but more importantly...it records many people who have secret friendship with Bai Cu, and there are even many
Their inhumane secrets. Cao Mian gathered these people together based on the clues above, so no one reported on him when he was conspiring in Qingzhou."
"Then he is quite powerful." Cao Mian, a local official, naturally cannot have the detailed information and scheduling rights of so many people. It is indeed a skill for him to be able to gather people together without leaving any trace.
Not to mention, he can still let people like Ruan Ting be used by him.
"That's all?" Luo Junyao asked, "Aren't there any treasures or Bai Jingrong's secrets?"
Xie Yan said: "We are a little late. Most of the places where Bai Cu stored money and grain recorded above were moved by Cao Mian. I will let people go and take a look at the remaining places. As for Bai Jingrong, remember this
There are a lot of smears in the notes? I suspect it may be related to Bai Jingrong."
"Those smear marks were from many years ago."
Luo Junyao was a little disappointed, "I don't know if it was Bai Cu himself or Cao Mian who painted it out."
Xie Yan said: "Bai Cu himself is probably the most likely, Cao Mian does not have this need. Moreover, Cao Mian is not very familiar with Bai Jingrong. Obviously his knowledge of Bai Jingrong is limited."
Luo Junyao was already losing interest, "So, this thing is of no use."
Xie Yan threw the note on the table and said, "You can return it to Bai Xu. Bai Xu is still waiting."
Luo Jun shook his head and said, "Maybe he can tell something. After all, he is Bai Cu's biological son."
Xie Yan said: "As long as it has nothing to do with the overall situation, you don't have to worry too much about small things." Bai Xu is indeed different from Bai Cu and Bai Jingrong. Xie Yan is not worried that he will cause any turmoil to Dasheng.
He doesn't want to be in control of everything as long as it has nothing to do with the overall situation.
"Prince Qi, Mr. Bai is here."
"Invite him in."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After a while, Bai Xu walked in from outside.
"Prince Regent, Princess."
Xie Yan nodded and threw the notes on the table towards Bai Xu.
"Master Bai, you can see if this is your father's relic."
Bai Xu took it in his hand, turned it over slightly and couldn't help showing a bit of joy on his face, and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, it is a relic of my late father."
Xie Yan said: "Young Master Bai can take the things away."
Bai Xu was not polite, looked at the cover of the book carefully, and put it away under his sleeve.
He knew that the manuscript had been in Xie Yan's hands for many days, and he didn't care. After all, it would be weird if Xie Yan gave it to him without even looking at it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Now that I have got my father's relics back, I will say goodbye and leave Shangyong in the next few days. I'll see you again in the future."
Luo Junyao asked: "Where do Mr. Bai plan to go after leaving Shangyong?"
Bai Xu didn't hide anything, and said in a deep voice: "Beyond the Great Wall."
Luo Junyao raised his eyebrows in surprise. Could it be that Bai Xu was planning to seek revenge against Bai Jingrong alone?
Xie Yan didn't ask any more questions, he just said: "So, Mr. Bai, have a good trip."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Bai Xu cupped his hands and said, "Farewell."
There was nothing to say at first. Although Bai Xu did not hate the Xie family, the two families were competing for the world, and his father did die at the hands of Dasheng.
From now on, it would be better to walk on both sides of the road.
After sending Bai Xu away, Luo Junyao looked back at Xie Yan and asked, "Are you really going to let him go like this?"
Xie Yan chuckled and said, "Don't worry, if he really goes outside the Great Wall, someone will be watching."
"Okay." Luo Junyao nodded, leaned into his arms and said, "The date for sending the Empress Dowager to the imperial mausoleum has also been stopped. It seems that there is nothing going on recently?"
Xie Yan said: "I've really had nothing to do with Shangyong recently. Shake Yao has been working hard for the past six months. When the Empress Dowager's coffin is put into the imperial mausoleum, can I go out with Yao Yao for a walk?"
"Okay." Luo Junyao responded happily.
"Princess." Ling Lan asked to see her outside.
"What's the matter?" Luo Junyao asked.
Ling Lan said: "Didn't the princess let the slaves keep an eye on the Yueyang Marquis Mansion earlier? Yueyang... no, it's General Jiang and Mrs. Jiang who have made peace."
From the perspective of Jiang Guanmu and the Han family, this story is: "The Overbearing General's Wife", or "The Years I Became the General's Wife". But I didn't expect that the cannon fodder's original wife did not abuse the girl halfway.
The Lord did not seek death and overturned the table directly.
