It's not a big deal if a rich man dies in the capital.
But this Lord actually dared to run wildly on the royal road and was killed by the imperial guards. He really deserved it.
Don't say he is the son of Da Sima, even if he is the son of the chief minister of the cabinet, he will still die.
This deceitful Mr. Jia Chan not only died unexpectedly, but also implicated me.
In just three days, Jia Yucun was impeached by 5,800 memorials. It is said that there were enough memorials to impeach Jia Yucun for various crimes to fill a room.
Greedy, tyrannical, hypocritical, poisoning gold, silver and jewels, the Gourd Monk judges the gourd case and helps the powerful in lawsuits...
For a time, Jia Yucun became a despicable villain that is hard to describe.
Under heavy pressure, Jia Yucun had no choice but to retire and return home.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The emperor sent the Dragon Guards to raid his home and demoted Jia Yucun thousands of miles away!
It can be said that I stayed with my son and lost my official position.
As for the marriage with Tanchun, it was natural to let it go.
Fortunately, no rumors came out.
…
Thousands of miles away, Songjiang Mansion under Lin Zhao's administration is even more prosperous. In the minds of the world, the market of Songjiang Mansion is bullish. Now Songjiang Mansion is gradually becoming the commercial center of Jiangnan. After autumn and winter, Jinling
The Qinhuai River was at its peak, but now those famous women and flower boats were all heading towards Songjiang Prefecture.
Because there are too many businesses to be finalized in Songjiang Prefecture, and wealthy people often use high-end fireworks and romantic places as an occasion to discuss and socialize, so there is such a flow, not to mention that it was originally only in Suzhou.
The delicious food and beauty of Yangzhou and Jinling, as well as various places for wealthy people to sell their money, are now moving towards Songjiang Prefecture.
Countless practitioners came here due to being deceived by others, but found nothing, or suffered heavy blows, and had to leave sadly.
Therefore, even though he is regarded as a thorn in the eyes of countless people, he is as stable as a mountain.
…
Because it was autumn in August, the capital was crowded. Imperial examination candidates and supervisors from Guanzhong area flocked to Chang'an to prepare for the examination. Many candidates also came to Beijing early to build connections for the spring of the next year.
Xing Xiuyan and her husband-in-law Li Wenrui also came to the city from the countryside and lived in the three-entry courtyard in Snow Flower Lane that was included in her dowry. The houses in Yuhua Lane, another place where scholars gathered, had been rented out early, and the shops there were dedicated to business.
Paper, pen, inkstone and other stationery supplies, I really made a lot of money during this season when I went to Beijing to take the exam.
Xing Xiuyan was calculating the accounts and was secretly grateful to Sister Feng for her good intentions in purchasing her dowry. So once everything was settled, she prepared a lot of generous gifts and came to visit Sister Feng. Firstly, she thanked her for taking care of her that day; secondly, naturally, she also
Ask Sister Feng to help come up with a plan: Because Daiyu's father Lin Ruhai is presiding over the current imperial examination, in order to avoid suspicion, the Lin Mansion has now closed its doors to accept guests.
She went to the door to talk about favors and establish connections; but she was also afraid of what she would do if she acted recklessly and offended the Lin family?
After hearing what Xing Xiuyan said hesitantly, Sister Feng smiled and said: "Sister Xing, you know my sister-in-law's character. She is the most direct and direct person. In addition to the relationship between our sisters, it is not easy to hide anything.
Tuck it in, so if what my sister-in-law says next is not pleasant to you, don’t take it to heart."
When Xing Xiuyan heard about it, she was stunned. She knew that her question might be rude. So she hurriedly said: "What did my sister-in-law say? I want to ask my sister-in-law myself. My sister-in-law is willing to tell the truth. It is my sister-in-law who treats me well."
I can only be grateful for your kindness, how can I be ungrateful and take it into my heart?"
Sister Feng raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "In that case, Sister Xing, don't blame me for speaking harshly. It's because Uncle Lin is the examiner, so now we should avoid suspicion, otherwise others will see it, and we will have the impression of using the back door, and my brother-in-law will be in trouble in the future.
Even if you have real talent and knowledge, you will become a loser and provoke some people with bad conscience to talk about you."
Xing Xiuyan frowned and said, "But we just want to find out about the examiners' preferences, questions from previous years' papers, etc. Can't we also do that?"
Sister Feng said: "These things can be bought from the Imperial College by spending more money. Why should my sister go to the Lin Mansion to save these silver coins? Now you are not short of those silver coins. Sister Xing, it is too late to ask for help.
, these small things that you can do well by yourself, if you ask for help, you will only waste the love between the two families in vain. "
Xing Xiuyan said "Ah", stood up and saluted, and said ashamedly: "Sister-in-law, thank you for reminding me. If you hadn't told me, I might not have had the shame to visit Princess Lin in the future."
Sister Feng nodded and said: "As long as you understand. Sister Lin is obviously pregnant. The delivery date is in April next year, so Sister Lin doesn't have time to worry about other things. I went to see Sister Lin yesterday, and she also said that the baby will be born next year.
After that, there won’t be a big full-moon banquet, just the two of them will have a reunion dinner by themselves. So when the time comes, you can just send a gift and don’t leave.”
Xing Xiuyan was stunned again after hearing this: "Princess, she is..."
Sister Feng sighed: "Sister Lin said, if she didn't have the care of her family, how could she live a happy life now? So no matter what, it's better to be simple, and there is no need to spend a lot of time and effort on a big project? There is no need to waste it."
Xing Xiuyan sighed and quietly extinguished the activity in his heart.
Not to mention Xingxiuyan, even Miaoyu cannot be pure now.
After Miaoyu returned to secular life, she lived with Zhen Yinglian's mother, Feng Shi, and under Feng's care, they arranged a marriage.
Chen Yejian, the eldest brother of the Chen family, will also attend the Spring Festival next year. As soon as they found out that Lin Ruhai was hosting it, Chen's mother and sister-in-law thought of Miaoyu and told her three times a day that they wanted her to befriend Daiyu and ask Lin Ruhai to do it.
The eldest brother of the Chen family took care of me. Miaoyu didn't disdain this by nature, and she was very close to Daiyu and others. She really didn't want to ruin the relationship between the sisters for something that she should work hard on. Besides, Yinglian also sent a message, she knew
Knowing Lin's actions and Daiyu's plan, they refused to come to ask for trouble no matter what. Chen's mother and sister-in-law thought that Miaoyu was deliberately refusing to help, and their faces became ugly. They had been treating her lightly these days.
of.
Miaoyu felt aggrieved and had nothing to say, so she had to whisper the reason to her husband-in-law at night and asked her to explain it for her. Chen Yexian was also a fool. After hearing what Miaoyu said, he went to talk to his father.
Mr. Chen was immediately furious. He called Chen Yejian here to teach him a lesson and asked him why he did not pass the exam based on his true talent and learning, but wanted to rely on the help of his wife to ruin the reputation of his own school. Chen Yejian was confused.
After asking carefully, I found out that it was because of Mother Chen and Sister-in-law Chen, and I couldn't help but change my face: He was conceited about his talent and only wanted to win the top prize and bring glory to his family. Who knew that his mother and wife were actually holding him back like this?
Fortunately, the younger siblings did not go to Mr. Lin. Otherwise, if they won the first prize in the future, how could they work with Mr. Lin in the same court? They would not be despised by him to death. After the father and son talked about it, they went to find Chen's mother separately. Sister-in-law Chen said
Went.
By the time Miaoyu found out what her silly husband had done, it was already too late. Mother Chen and Sister-in-law Chen treated her even more coldly for complaining behind her back. When Miaoyu went to pay her respects, she would often sit aside and listen to the two of them talking as if no one was listening.
Or he said some unpleasant things with insinuations. Miaoyu couldn't understand it for a while, so she had to endure it.
