Chapter 255 Worthy of being a courtier of Emperor Wuxuan
Huo Lingjue went to take the government examination. He stayed there for several days. By April 15th, the weather here had completely returned to normal.
As soon as the government issued an order, everyone who had already made preparations immediately entered the spring plowing stage in an orderly manner.
Although we experienced a cold winter this year and the spring plowing was much later, everyone was confident and quite happy. While working, a group of old farmers were mumbling about planting potatoes while carrying instructions on their backs. formula, joking with each other from time to time.
Shen Zhoujin went out for a walk, and Qin Mu came to find her and said that the emperor's people were coming.
Shen Zhoujin was speechless: "Come here again at this time?"
"Yes," Qin Mu said, "When I came here, I went around the villages and learned how to grow potatoes, and then I came here."
"Going around the villages?" Shen Zhoujin was surprised: "Is he a civil servant?"
"Yes, he is a civil servant, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs."
Because Emperor Wu Xuan had mentioned it before, she thought Longxiang Guards would be sent to her, but in the end, it was Yun Guangsen, the minister of household affairs, who came.
Even after hearing the name, Shen Zhoujin didn't think much until he saw Yun Guangsen himself.
She was shocked at the time.
This man came to see Yun Zhongyan after his death. He was Yun Zhongyan’s father!
Because this was Yun Chongyan's heart problem, she never asked where the family his mother was looking for was and what its name was. But in the previous life, after "Little Mouse" died, this person came to see him, and she met him once. , in total, it will be two or three years later.
But at that time, she only heard some sporadic things from the servants' mouths and pieced together the truth. She didn't know the details. She didn't know why he abandoned Yun Chongyan, and how he knew that Yun Chongyan's mother had been replaced. of.
She looked at him carefully.
Yun Guangsen has a beard, a slender appearance, and beautiful red phoenix eyes, which is quite similar to Yun Chongyan, but he looks quite young, at least in his fifties?
Yun Guangsen was an experienced person in the court. When he saw Shen Zhoujin's expression, he realized something was wrong.
So after greetings, he asked: "Does the princess know me?"
He asked very directly, but Shen Zhoujin smiled and asked him: "Why did the emperor ask you to come?"
Yuan Guangsen did not ask further questions, so he changed the subject and said, "The emperor heard that the princess is trying to grow new grains here, and ordered his ministers to come to assist. Maybe he can take the new grains and try planting them elsewhere."
Oh, he is indeed a minister of Emperor Wu Xuan, so skillful in begging for things.
Shen Zhoujin didn't say anything, just nodded: "Then you should look around first."
Yuan Guangsen quickly responded: "Yes."
Shen Zhoujin came out first, looking for Qin Yunchiao.
As soon as I turned around, I saw a horse galloping in the distance. When I looked back, I saw a young man on the horse, with black hair and a jade face, as graceful as jade.
Shen Zhoujin stood still, waiting for him to come over. Huo Lingjue jumped off his horse from a distance, rushed forward, bumped into her, grabbed her hand, and said with a smile: "Wait for me?"
"No," Shen Zhoujin said without understanding the charm at all: "I'm looking for Xiaoqiao."
He wasn't angry either and said, "What should I do with him?"
As soon as he said that, Shen Zhoujin remembered it and asked him: "Yun Guangsen, do you know him?"
Huo Lingjue said: "Yun Guangsen? Isn't that Yun Chongyan's grandfather?"
Shen Zhoujin was surprised: "Grandpa? Not his father?" No wonder she felt a little old!
"No, it's my grandfather." Huo Lingjue didn't care about the horse, so he took her hand and walked back, saying: "I checked them. His fake son Yuan Chufeng, back then, Mrs. Yuan, was the
The woman who gave birth to his daughter probably had a guilty conscience, fearing that she would be exposed in the future, and wanted him to marry a high-ranking woman. At that time, Yuan Guangsen was still a lowly official, and she dared to seduce the daughter of Prince Kangping, but it is said that the princess
Yuan Chufeng was so unpretentious to him that he made a stupid move. I didn't find out what the stupid move was. I only heard that when the young master of the palace found out about this, he was so angry that he set up a trap to make him fall in love with a brothel girl.
Yuan Chufeng was completely unaware of it, and he was trapped in the mud at that time."
He thought for a while: "I heard that Yuan Chufeng kept the brothel girl outside, and later she got married and kept him secretly for more than ten years. It is said that brothel girls are not easy to get pregnant. Yuan Chufeng spent a lot of money
After recuperating her, the baby was born in half, with only one arm and one leg. She was so frightened that Po Wen went crazy and was rumored to be a monster. From this, the incident came to light, and somehow, the baby was born.
The matter of the daughter-in-law being exchanged for a husband was exposed, and Yuan Guangsen spent a lot of effort to finally find the place where his grandson was last staying, and when he found it, it was already too late."
Shen Zhoujin asked: "He only has this one son?"
"That's not true," Huo Lingjue said, "He also has a legitimate son and a concubine."
Shen Zhoujin said: "In other words, after the woman exchanged her daughter for a son, she gave birth to another son?"
"Yes," Huo Lingjue said: "Maybe it was because of this that the woman dared to say it in the end... And many things are certain, for example, the woman's second son may be because of
He is a 'real' son, so he is extremely doting on him. He raises a child who is neither good at literature nor martial arts. He has a very pampered temperament and has a bad reputation. I heard that he is still in his twenties and has not yet gotten married..."
Shen Zhoujin nodded again.
To be honest, his family was useless, but she was relieved. She asked: "Did the fake son give birth to another child?"
"It should not have happened at this time," Huo Lingjue said: "When I checked, it was already very late, but because Yuan Chufeng was infatuated with the outside wife and had a bad relationship with his wife, he never had any children. In the end, the outside wife gave birth to a child.
That 'monster'."
Shen Zhoujin felt even more relieved.
She never mentioned this to Yun Zhongyan, but she was slightly worried.
One was because his family had traded a daughter for a son, and some people might make mistakes if they wanted to; second, she was also worried that Yun Chongyan couldn't speak, and the people in that family would dislike him.
Although she can use her power to force people to admit their relatives, if the family members feel disgusted in their hearts, Yun Chongyan will definitely be able to detect it, so it would be better not to admit it, or to just pretend that it doesn't happen.
But the plan couldn't keep up with the change, and his grandfather actually came.
Shen Zhoujin urged him: "Go and contact Yuan Guangsen and see how he is doing. I'll write a letter first."
Huo Lingjue nodded.
Shen Zhoujin went back and thought about it, then wrote a letter to Xie Siwei, asking Xie Siwei to talk to Yun Chongyan about the matter and then see what he wanted, whether he wanted to make it clear or not, and whether he wanted to admit it or not, it was all up to him.
He came out to hand over the letter. When he saw Qin Yunqiao coming out, he told him to go check it out again.
Yuan Guangsen originally wanted to take the potatoes and leave, but Shen Zhoujin held him back and refused to let him go.
Over there, Xie Siwei received the letter and came to see Yun Chongyan.
Yun Chongyan, this kid, looks cold when we first meet him, but in fact he is just not sociable, he is very well-behaved and shy. He has been training with the border army these days, and everyone likes him very much.
Xie Siwei called him over and told him the matter.
Yun Zhongyan was startled, then he squatted down and wrote on the ground: "My mother used to..."
"Don't think too much," Xie Siwei said: "Listen to Master, your grandfather is an upright man. Your grandfather must not know what happened back then. It was your grandmother who was afraid that things would be exposed, so she drove you away.
of."
Yun Chongyan remained silent.
Although he was still young at the time, he was so humiliated that it really didn't look like he had hidden secrets.
My grandfather didn't know, but he had no good impression of this grandmother at all.
He didn't think long before he shook his head firmly and wrote on the ground: "My only relatives are master, senior brother and senior sister."
