Chapter 147 can be unfilial

When Tong returned home, he didn't go back to the backyard, but went directly to find Cui Weiqi. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Cui Weiqi was in a very bad mood. Anyone who is deceived will need a while to calm down after discovering the truth.

"Mother, you're here. As long as I think of his dispute with the Tong family for the Niu family, I feel too guilty.

Tong hurriedly helped Cui Weiqi sit down: "I went to the palace to thank the prince and the prince." ”

Cui Weiqi hummed and said, "When my leg is healed, I will also go to the palace to thank the prince and the prince." Cui Weiqi's leg has not healed yet, and he is still in a wheelchair on weekdays.

Tong hesitated and said: "Qi'er, my mother will help the Niu family find a good family, but 10,000 taels of dowry is too much, and my mother thinks that 1,000 taels is enough." "All the property of the Niu family is added up, and it is estimated that it is only one or two thousand taels.

Cui Weiqi is not a stupid person, and immediately asked when he heard this: "Mother, did the princess say something?" The Tong family went to the palace, and the most likely thing to see was the princess.

Tong shook his head and said, "No." It was your aunt who disapproved of this when she heard this, and your aunt said that the eldest girl of the Han family would marry more than 10,000 taels. She began to agree so readily because she gave Niu a sterilization drug, and she had a kind of intention to compensate. But Tong Fang's words made her vigilant. The son didn't know about it, but he was 10,000 taels as soon as he said it, which was too serious about money.

"Mother, but I have already promised to give her a dowry of 10,000 taels of silver. Mother, I can't be a person who doesn't believe in my word. Although Niu's purpose is not pure, but in the end he lost his life to her, and he also had a miscarriage for him, so Cui Weiqi wanted to compensate Niu.

Tong's face was embarrassed.

Seeing this, Mother Qian interjected: "Uncle, Mrs. spent more than 3,000 taels of silver on the dowry for you, and it is a large amount of money to get married, and the house can't take out 10,000 taels of silver." "Yunqing rewards all valuable things such as land products and antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and does not reward gold and silver. And the cash in the family is almost used for Cui Weiqi's marriage. You can't sell things for the sake of the Niu family! This has to be spread, and Cui Weiqi's reputation is getting worse and worse.

Cui Weiqi hesitated and said, "Otherwise, accompany her to have some land." ”

When Tong heard this, he was so angry that he scolded angrily: "Do you know how the family's land and property were obtained? You're good, and the upper and lower lips touch and send it out. "Those good fields on the outskirts of Ho City cannot be bought without rewards, and money cannot buy them.

The more he talked, the more angry he became, and Tong said with a cold face: "If you want to give the Niu family 10,000 taels of silver, the dowry will not stop you, but the family will not pay a penny." "The original thousand taels of silver are gone.

After speaking, Tong turned around and went out.

When he returned to the house and sat down, Tong was still angry: "Why did you have such an evil obstacle." He thought that all these properties in the family were blown by the wind? "The property of the family will belong to the two brothers in the future." Cui Weiqi's attitude, when the youngest son becomes a brother, he will definitely make a mess of the family property.

Mother Qian brought a glass of water to Tong and said, "Don't be angry, madam, it's better now than before." "At least see the true face of the Niu family clearly, and I will no longer be angry with the Niu family.

After a pause, Qian's mother said: "Let the uncle raise money by himself, and if he touches the nail, he will be the governor." "If you can borrow a thousand taels of silver from a friend, you can make it up, and where can you make up 10,000 taels of silver.

Tong nodded and said, "You're right, I can't indulge Archie anymore." "Because the Tong family and Cui Mo used to live a hard life, they didn't want them to suffer like this when they had children, everything was good for them, and the money was never shorter than the two brothers. As a result, the eldest son developed a temperament that does not know how to control money.

Thinking of this, Tong sighed and said: "I heard that the princess only gave the princess twenty taels of silver every month, and I thought that the princess was too strict with her children. Only now do I know that it is still the princess who has a vision. "Looking back now, the youngest son also spent more lavishly.

Mother Qian smiled and said, "Madam, it's not too late to understand now." ”

Tong smiled bitterly: "The master told me before that Qi'er marrying the second county lord can benefit his children and grandchildren, but I didn't care at the time. At that time, she thought that Cui Mo was talking about Liu'er's identity that could bring benefits to her grandchildren, but she didn't understand the deep meaning. I understand it now, but it's too late.

Mother Qian was relieved: "Madam, the second girl of the Tang family is also carefully cultivated, and it should not be bad." ”

Thinking that the two sons-in-law of the Tang family were very good at reading, Tong said: "Hope!"

The next day, Tong went to Tang's house to discuss the marriage date. Seeing that Mrs. Tang's face was covered with thick powder and it was still difficult to hide her haggardness, Tong Shi also felt a little guilty. For the sake of his son, Mrs. Tang was guilty: "Madam, my son's leg is not a big obstacle, Dr. He said that he will be cured after two months." ”

Mrs. Tang asked in disbelief, "Really?" Neither her husband nor daughter was willing to leave her family, and Mrs. Tang couldn't sleep at night these days.

"How can I talk about such a big thing. If you don't believe me, send someone to ask Dr. He. Although Mrs. Tang thought that her son was paralyzed and wanted to withdraw from her family, she felt a little uncomfortable at that time. However, Tong is also a reasonable person, and she definitely does not want to marry her daughter to a cripple.

Knowing that Cui Weiqi's leg was fine, Mrs. Tang was in good spirits, and she was very enthusiastic about Tong. Regarding Tong's saying that she wanted to set the wedding date on the eighteenth day of the first month, she also agreed, and she was not embarrassed at all.

After sending the Tong family away, Mrs. Tang went to find Tang Xiaomei and told her the good news.

Tang Xiaomei lowered her head and pinched the corners of her clothes, and said with a guilty face: "Mother, I'm sorry, I actually knew that Uncle Cui's legs were okay for a long time. ”

"Uh......" Mrs. Tang asked in disbelief, "how do you know?"

"Daddy told me, but Daddy won't let me tell you. Because she promised Tang Chengye not to tell Mrs. Tang about this, every time she saw Mrs. Tang sad about her marriage, she felt so guilty that she couldn't do it.

Mrs. Tang was surprised: "What the hell is going on? Since your father knows that Wei Qi's legs are fine, why is he hiding it from me?"

"I don't know about that. My father only told me that Cui Weiqi's leg was injured, but he only needed to raise it for three or five months. Later, it was rumored that he was crippled, and I was confused. There was a lot of rumors outside, if she hadn't believed her father, she wouldn't have been so calm.

After speaking, Tang Xiaomei said guiltily: "Mother, I'm sorry, I've made you worry and sad these days." She wanted to tell Mrs. Tang about it every time, but when the words came to her mouth, she remembered her father's warning.

Mrs. Tang suddenly realized: "During this time, you are not for Cui Weiqi, but for your mother's ****?"

Tang Xiaomei nodded: "Mother, I'm sorry, my daughter shouldn't hide it from you." "She was mainly afraid that it would ruin her father's affairs by saying it, otherwise she would have said it earlier.

"How can I blame you for this, it's all your father's fault. "I made up my mind that I would ask her husband about it when he returned.

On this day, Tang Chengye came back very late. Seeing her husband's tired look, Mrs. Tang put Cui Weiqi's matter aside and asked, "What's the matter? Why are you in such bad spirits these two days?"

"I'm demoted to the rank of Left Squire now. Mrs. Tang is anxious about Cui Weiqi's affairs these days, so he asked the housekeeper and daughter-in-law to hide this matter first.

Mrs. Tang was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Master, what happened?" must have done something to make the princess unhappy, so she was demoted.

After talking about Zhang Liguo, Tang Chengye said: "The officials who handled this case were demoted, and those who were dismissed were dismissed." "Speaking of which, he is not bad, but he has been degraded by one level, and several officials below have been swept off.

Mrs. Tang doesn't know much about officialdom, and she can't express her opinion: "Can you resume your original post in the future?"

Tang Chengye shook his head and said: "The princess already has a candidate for the secretary of the criminal department. In fact, he had already sensed that Yuxi was not very satisfied with his actions. He has tried his best to change, but there are some things that he can't change if he is used to it.

Seeing that Mrs. Tang's face was a little unpleasant, Tang Chengye said: "Actually, it's okay, I can't accept many of the princess's ideas and opinions. It is better to be like this now than to be rejected in the future. "The squire mainly deals with specific affairs, and it is basically Shangshu's business to give Yunqing and Yuxi a gift.

She couldn't agree with many of the princess's concepts, so Mrs. Tang didn't say much about it, but just asked, "Then do you know who took your place?"

"I don't know yet. Tan Tuo just revealed to him that there was already a candidate for the secretary of the Criminal Department, but he didn't say who it was. He guessed that Lord Tan didn't know who this candidate was.

Mrs. Tang sighed and was angry: "The people in our family are all safe and sound, and the eldest son has also married wives and had children, and I am also content." "Many of the families with whom they have fellowship have fallen. Not only are the people in their family safe and sound, but their property is also preserved.

Tang Chengye hummed and said, "Why are you calling me over in such a hurry?" He originally wanted to discuss matters with his staff, but heard that Mrs. Tang was busy with him.

"How did you know that Cui Weiqi's leg was fine three months ago?" Mrs. Tang was puzzled by this.

Tang Chengye said: "The princess told me this, and I didn't say the details, but I guess this should be a bureau set up to expose the true face of the Niu family." "For this, he is still very grateful to Yuxi. If you didn't know in advance that you really wanted to, this family business would definitely have to be withdrawn. When the truth is revealed, the Tang family will definitely be laughed at.

"It should be, Mrs. Cui said that Archie has agreed to marry Niu. As long as she finds the right person, she will marry Niu. "It's about her daughter's lifelong event, and Mrs. Tang is still very concerned. Hearing that it was Cui Weiqi who wanted Niu's to marry another, she was really relieved.

Tang Chengye said: "No matter what, this is a good thing for Xiaomei. "It's not the process that matters, it's the result that matters.

The day before returning to Ho City, Yuan Bilin received an official letter from Ho Cheng, which asked Yuan Bilin to execute Zhang's father and Leng's family.

This matter made a big fuss in Ba County, and there was a lot of resistance during the retrial. However, Yuan Bilin is a master of trial cases, and soon discovered the flaws, found out the Leng family according to the clues, and then designed the truth of the little guy.

After reading the official letter, Yuan Bilin called his entourage over and said: "Post a notice outside the yamen, and execute Zhang Kang and the Leng family in three days." ”

The attendant Ah Yang asked in surprise: "Executed in three days?" The minister beheaded the corrupt officials when they found out, which was all written in the play. Not to mention the execution of officials, even the ordinary people need to be executed by the people above before they can be executed.

Yuan Bilin nodded and said: "The princess has been deeply affected by it, so she hates this kind of person the most. "Tiger poison doesn't eat children, this Zhang Kang is not even as good as a beast.

Zhang Kang knew that he would be executed in three days, and shouted to see Zhang Liguo. The jailer reported the matter, and Yuan Bilin nodded and agreed: "Since it is the prisoner's last wish, then satisfy him." "The execution of Zhang Kang was an order given by the princess herself and could not be changed.

Zhang Kang saw Zhang Liguo and asked him to intercede with Yuan Bilin and spare his life.

Zhang Liguo said expressionlessly: "You killed my mother, and you want my life, and you want me to intercede? "Zhang's mother is not in good health, Zhang Liguo did not suspect that she was killed, and Zhang Kang was a thief by himself.

Zhang Kang jumped up angrily: "You unfilial son, I am your father, how can you talk to me like this?"

Zhang Liguo was sad in his heart, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with him anymore: "My name is Nie Xin now, and I am no longer your son." My mother's grave, I will also move out of the Zhang family. Zhang Liguo hated Zhang Kang and the Zhang family, so he entered the genealogy of his mother's family.

Zhang Kang yelled: "You unfilial son, aren't you afraid of thunder and thunder?"

Nie Xin sneered: "God wants to chop, and you should also chop to death, a thing with a beast heart like you." "His life was given by Zhang Kang, and Zhang Kang wanted to kill him, so he could only say that his life was not good. But his mother was so kind, but she didn't live a comfortable day, and was finally killed by Zhang Kang, a brute. Thinking of this, Nie Xin's eyes turned red all of a sudden.

Ah Yang was waiting outside the prison, and when he saw Zhang Liguo, he said, "Zhang Xiucai, our master is invited." ”

During the trial, Ah Yang followed Yuan Bilin, so Zhang Liguo knew him: "Uncle, I have changed my name to Nie Xin now." After speaking, he said self-deprecatingly: "It's not a talent anymore, I'm white now." "Changing his name and surname abandoned his original identity, not to mention fame, and he didn't even have the qualifications for scientific examinations.

Ah Yang's expression remained unchanged and said, "Nie Gongzi, our master wants to see you, please come with me." ”

Nie Xin nodded.

Hearing that Zhang Liguo changed his name and surname, Yuan Bilin was not surprised, and said: "I will protect your reputation for you." ”

Nie Xin shook his head and said, "Lord Yuan, you have recreated me with kindness, and I can't harm you." "It is Yuan Bilin's business to overturn the case, but it is not good for him to meddle in this matter. Yuan Bilin saved his life, and he was already grateful.

Yuan Bilin shook his head and said, "It's not me who recreates you, it's the princess." Seeing the stunned look on Nie Xin's face, Yuan Bilin said: "The princess felt strange when she saw the file of your case, so she sent me to retry the case." And keeping your fame is also the meaning of the princess. Although Xiucai's fame is nothing, he doesn't have that much right to dare to say this.

With a bang, Nie Xin knelt down in the direction of Pickaxe City, and then kowtowed three times.

Yuan Bilin nodded secretly, after such a blow, this child has not changed his temperament, this child's character is really commendable: "As long as you study hard and gain fame, you will be able to see the princess one day." ”

After a pause, Yuan Bilin said: "When you become an official in the future, you can still bring justice to many people who have been wronged like you." ”

Nie Xin was a little excited, but then said unconfidently: "Can I?"

"Yes. Yuan Bilin nodded, and then said: "I have a classmate who teaches at Minglan Academy in Shancheng, if you are willing, I can write you a letter of recommendation." ”

Nie Xin was moved.

Neither Yuxi nor Yuan Bilin expected that Nie Xin would later become a famous generation through the ages.
