As the son of the world, Gu Xichao has been a companion since childhood. Liu Yi has seen and heard a lot over the years, and knows that the Daoist court is not at all benevolent to the Huaiyang Palace.

Today, the emperor is determined to be new, and when he is in power, he will make a big move against the nobles of the family. If it weren't for the old prince who saved the emperor's life in the early years, the title of Huaiyang Mansion would have been taken away long ago. The old princess, orphans and widows were cautious, and even the palace was rarely out of the palace in those years. The eyes of the whole world are watching, but the imperial court is not going to force it too much, and only a Huainan general army camp is placed next to it. The old princess brought up her son, and the prince's family affairs were set in the early years. After the princess entered the house, she broke two brothers successively. Later, the prince became obsessed with the top girl of the Liuxiang Academy, and insisted on bringing it in, and the princess gave birth to the eldest lady in this year. After the eldest prince landed, Aunt Lin was even more honored. The appearance of the prince was completely accidental. I heard that it was found after more than three months in the princess's belly.

After landing, there are also major illnesses and small disasters, and accidents are frequent, that is, it has only gotten better in recent years.

Liu Yi originally thought that this was because the imperial court had no time to take care of it - in recent years, floods and droughts have occurred frequently, Liu Shenzhou rebelled in Heyuan, and barbarians in the northwest have repeatedly invaded.

Now it seems that it is not only because of this.

The palace favors Aunt Lin, and the eldest prince has also risen with the tide, and he has become more and more dishonest over the years. He couldn't see it before, and he had persuaded it. Shizi said that he should rest assured, just come as he wants. When the prince saw him like this, he was completely disheartened, and the eldest prince took a more fancy to him.

It's been a long time. He saw that there was something mysterious in it. But it's just a guess in my heart.

His father said this. He understood perfectly. The inaction of the prince, the fall of the prince, and the ambition of the eldest prince are also the path taken by the Huaiyang Royal Mansion in the face of the current predicament.

If the Huaiyang Palace's own rot from the roots, wouldn't it be much better than the imperial court making a big move?

So in recent years, there have been much fewer moves by the imperial court.

Now that the emperor is old, he let the Huaiyang palace go unattended, but he just wanted to save the old prince in front of the world. to show your kindness.

Liu Yi thought of Gu Xichao, and his mouth couldn't help but feel bitter. A deliberately cultivated gentleman, who knows everything in his heart, but can't do anything. Even if he repeatedly provokes his brother, he can't fight back, how can this taste good?

Liu Hai said again: "You and Mu Yu were picked by the side of the prince when they were young, Xin Chen came late, and he didn't know much about the situation of the palace, you are cousins, so you should be reminded more." The prince is older. I'm afraid there will be more things in the future, and there are some things you should know. The prince's family affairs are in charge of the prince and princess. In the current situation, the princess is either an unfavored concubine in a first-class family, or she can only choose someone in a second-class family. So your cousin may really have some creation in the future. ”

The imperial court is jealous of the Huaiyang Palace, even if the Gu Xi Dynasty is not good, the imperial court will not let the Huaiyang Palace. The princess who was picked out like that may not be able to take charge of the inner courtyard of the Huaiyang Palace. Ye Yunlan's niece is very courageous and capable, and she also cast Gu Xichao's eyes. So bangs are very optimistic about her.

Liu Yi knew Gu Xichao's thoughts, he was a little afraid of his relatives before, and he didn't do too much, but after listening to Liu Hai's words, he felt that Gu Xichao was too bitter, and he hoped that his wishes would come true. ”

Liu Hai nodded with satisfaction and said: "Your mother's previous worries are not a big deal, will a family like Huaiyang Wangfu bury her?" She hesitates now, firstly, because she doesn't want to be small, and secondly, she can't see the wealth in the future. "No matter how bold you are, no matter how smart you are, where is that age, and the glory of the sky is in front of you, who doesn't have the heart to fight for it?

Liu Yi understood the key and made up his mind to help Gu Xichao's wish come true.

At Wei Yunhai's house in Weijiazhuang, Zhanghe Town, Zhang Xing, who was sewing clothes for Zhang Jinbao, sneezed a few times. Wei Yun'er, who married into Zhanghe Town last year, happened to go back to her parents' house today, doing needlework with Zhang Xing, and saw Zhang Xing rubbing her nose red, and couldn't stop it, after sneering and laughing, she took a crutch and crutches Zhang Xing, and asked, "Honestly, which one misses you?"

Zhang Xing is sixteen years old this year, according to the rules of the township, it is long overdue to talk about people, but her family's affairs are one after another, and her mother Ye Hexiang is above the top. This pro has never been decided.

Zhang Xing was stunned for a moment, touched his nose, and said with a smile: "Who else could it be?" Jin Baobei, he was talking about wearing new clothes before he left. ”

Wei Yun'er glanced at Zhang Xing and said angrily: "Who are you fooling? Jinbao is bent on taking the top prize, where will he still worry about you?"

At this time, it was the children's examination every three years, although Zhang Jinbao was young, but Mr. Liu valued him very much, and suggested that he should give it a try this year. Even if you don't do well in the exam, you can prepare for the next time.

At the moment, there is not much work in the field, and Wei Yunhai and Ye Hexiang have gone. Zhang Xing really didn't want to go out, so she stayed at home. Zhang Jinbao has always been good with his sister, and pestered her to go with her, but to no avail many times, so he had to go with Wei Yunhai and Ye Hexiang.

Zhang Xing corrected with a smile and said, "This is just a children's test, where is the top student?"

None of the Wei family are studying, and Wei Yun'er doesn't understand the imperial examination, so he said: "It's not half an official after this exam, it's not all the same!"

Zhang Xing smiled and said, "This is far away from the official master." Besides, what's the easy task of getting through?"

Wei Yun'er nodded in agreement this time and said, "That's right." "Although there is a private school in Weijiazhuang, and there are many people studying in it in several nearby villages, but over the years, none of them have passed the exam. The two brothers Min Wen and Min Wu of the Wei family heard that they were also praised by Mr. Chang before, but they didn't pass the exam a few times?

Seeing Wei Yun'er rubbing her shoulders, Zhang Xing hurriedly said, "Let's take a break." He went to the kitchen again and brought some dried fruit tea, and the two of them talked while eating. Wei Yun'er asked Zhang Xing: "Hu Lan'er from Liuwan Village, do you know him? I heard that he is still related to your family." She also married to our town last year. ”

Zhang Xing was stunned, Hu Lan'er she had met once a few years ago, she was the daughter of Uncle Ye's eldest daughter Ye Changyue, she was still her junior, one year younger than her, and she married Ye Hexiang last year and went to eat. Zhang Xing couldn't imagine that she actually married in Zhanghe Town.

"She's my uncle's niece, and she calls me aunt. Zhang Xing asked.

Wei Yun'er said while eating the fruit: "It turns out that you are still so close, why haven't I heard you talk about it before?"

Ye Hexiang and Aunt Ye are ice and fire, they must not be together, and they will definitely make trouble together. Although Ye Hexiang is close to Uncle Ye, she is not polite to this sister-in-law at all, so even Zhang Xingzhang and Jinbao's sisters and brothers are not close to the Hu family. Zhang Xing has never been to Hu's house at all.

"I don't go to my uncle's house much, and I haven't seen her a few times, so it's hard to say. Zhang Xing said honestly and asked again, "How is she?"

Wei Yun'er weighed it and said, "She's not the same as you. Zhang Xing sneered, "She is her, I am me, naturally it is different." ”

Wei Yun'er also laughed and said, "I mean she has a ...... temperament."

Zhang Xing understood. Hu Lan'er has only seen her a few times, she looks like Xiao Qiniang, and Aunt Xiao Ye, her temperament is the same, she is a cannon that can be caught at a point, although she has a lot of eyes, but it is too shallow. Marrying from the countryside to the town, for the village girl, it is considered a high marriage. In her husband's house, she had to bow her head, if Hu Lan'er still behaved like she did in her mother's house, I am afraid that her life in her mother-in-law's house would be difficult.

Wei Yun'er said: "She married Liu Killing Pig in our town." ”

Liu Killing Pig in Zhanghe Town is a famous person, both greedy and gambling, the family originally had some family background, and opened a grocery store in the west of the town, but these were all defeated by him, so he had to pick up the pig killing knife and sell pork in the vegetable market. He also had a mother-in-law first, but he was beaten away, and now he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.

Zhang Xing was really taken aback when she heard that Hu Lan'er actually married such a family. This Liu slaughtered pigs is really useless, he is old and stout. How could her cousin take a fancy to such a person, but when she turned her head and thought about the situation every time she saw Ye Changyue, the surprise in her heart slowly calmed down and turned into silence.

The daughter in this world is too cheap, she can't be born by herself, and she can't choose the second most important choice in her life.

Wei Yun'er said to herself: "She was beaten half to death by Liu Killing Pig a few days ago, and the child in her belly was not saved. Yesterday, her father called a dozen strong men in the village to drag her back, and also dragged all the Liu family's belongings!"

Zhang Xing was taken aback when she heard this, and asked, "Then Liu killed the pig......

Wei Yun'er said: "I sued Li Zheng that day." When I went out today, I heard that Liu Li was going to take people to Liuwan Village to arrest people. Liu Lizheng and Liu Killing Pig's family are relatives of their own family, and Hu Lan'er's family is probably not good about this matter. ”

Zhang Xing really can't say anything. Hu Lan'er was beaten, and she took advantage of the loss, but the Hu family dragged away all the belongings of other people's families, what is the matter?

But she couldn't help with that. Wei Yunhai and Ye Hexiang are not at home, and they can't help with this matter if they want to.

Liu Killing Pig's family and Liu Li are relatives of their own family, the Hu family has done too much, and Zhang Xing also feels that the Hu family is afraid that they will have to suffer some hardships this time.

Who knew that things didn't develop like this. Liu Lizheng originally brought people to Liuwan Village to arrest people, not only did he not catch anyone, but he heard that the next day Liu killed the pig and brought a cart of gifts to Hu's house, and respectfully picked up Hu Lan'er.

Zhang Xing heard this from the gossip of the people in the village, and was very puzzled. Wei Jiazhuang's famous Wei Dazui whispered: "There is someone above this Hu family, I heard that not only Quantang Town Lizheng, but even the county lord of Yu'an County Ya are here, where do you say Liu Lizheng dares to mention the arrest of people?" (to be continued......)
