Chapter 128: The Prime Minister's Mansion
And now it's not just Ah Yao who has changed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Many things have changed beyond recognition.
Stepping on this quiet path that slowly passed through the courtyard of the pavilion with overlapping carved beams and paintings, she knew that by now on, she was no longer the fourth young lady of the Qi Mansion in Tianyin City, no longer the wild girl of Grandma Qin's family in Xingshan Village, and not a puddle of mud that had been going downhill in her previous life.
Now she is here for the old things, for the Murong Mansion and the unyielding Qi Mansion that once held the power of the military aircraft but were destroyed overnight, for her father, and for her aunt.
In fact, she doesn't have much confidence in herself, after all, in the past few decades in her previous life and this life combined, she has been just an ordinary person, and she has neither the ability to turn her hands into clouds, nor the mind to turn her hands into rain.
Yes, who is sitting above the court has nothing to do with her, and she doesn't care much about who has the right to tilt the government and the opposition under the court.
After all, she didn't have a big heart and was thinking about it, but she just wanted to avenge her loved ones.
It's as simple as that.
As for what to do after revenge, she really didn't think about it. After all, for her, that kind of carefree days back to her childhood were still too far away from her after all.
Although her thoughts are complicated, she only feels that it is difficult to take back her soul in the world, but she still looks calm, neither humble nor arrogant, and only makes a kind and gentle appearance.
After all, I don't know if this Mrs. Hua is a little familiar with her niece Qi Shu, and whether she can see any clues at a glance.
Although this Changle City is thousands of miles away from Tianyin City, it has been decades since the Zhou family married into the Qi Mansion, no matter how diligent they are when they return to their parents' home, they will still return, and the people they should see will also be seen.
But looking at the battle in Washington, although it is claimed to the outside world that the prime minister of Huaguo is virtuous and honest, but looking at the construction and furnishings of this prime minister's mansion and the appearance of the people who come and go, it is definitely not what a Qing official who is self-denying and strict in self-cultivation can afford to pay a few hundred taels of silver every year.
Therefore, it is not completely unreasonable to say that the world is as black as a crow.
Yes, and in this way, the wife of the prime minister, Mrs. Yipin, must be living a life several times better than that of Zhou, the wife of a wealthy merchant in a remote mountain town.
Because of such a difference in hierarchy, even if their sisters return to their parents' homes at the same time every year, they will definitely not sit together and talk like ordinary people.
After all, Mrs. Hua's noble status as a daughter has already discouraged all her sisters.
Qi Nian's guess on this matter is good, back then, Rongguo Gong Zhou Fuzhong also experienced the dark tide of intrigue and intrigue disputes, but after all, the Zhou family is really too far behind her sister-in-law, yes, and no matter how hard she tries, she can't get past her sister-in-law, that is, Mrs. Hua today.
For the Zhou family, she also had the opportunity to become the wife of the prime minister with a noble status and unlimited scenery.
After all, more than 30 years ago, when the current saint was just a lonely prince who was not favored and did not seem to have the slightest chance to touch the golden throne, the benevolent, virtuous and ambitious Prince Zhaowen was unanimously recognized by everyone as the successor king, and almost everyone worshiped and had no suspense.
Of course, the coup d'état a few years later is not counted in the unprecedented pomp and circumstance of the people's admiration.
At that time, Hua Zhangshang was just a small official who had just set foot in the court, and the one who sat firmly on the position of prime minister was the old lady of Qi Mansion and Qi Junliang's father.
It turned out that the famous head of the Qi family, who was now far away in that remote mountain city and worked hard everywhere and also ran the family business, was once the only son of the prime minister of a country above 10,000 people under one person.
It is also because at that time, Xuanhe, the nobleman of the Qi Mansion, completely stood above all the families of all sizes in this Changle City, and Qi Junliang, the only son of the prime minister, has been a fragrant and sweet in the eyes of the nobles who have the daughters of the boudoir who have matched the age since he was a child.
And this piece of fragrant dumplings didn't make people worry for long, so it was booked by Rongguo Gong, who had always been good friends with Qi State.
So it was the eldest daughter of Duke Rong Guo, who was now Mrs. Hua, who was originally engaged to Qi Junliang, but later she was replaced by the Zhou family to marry, and there was a reason for this.
When Qi Junliang was twelve years old, the long-awaited and much-anticipated Prince Zhaowen suddenly lost his power, and was taken away from the low-hanging fruit throne by the current saint, not to mention, he was also imprisoned by the vigorous and resolute mansion, and all the courtiers who had been friendly with him in the past were regarded as the same party by the new emperor.
Yes, the crown princess's maiden family, General Murong Mansion, was sentenced to capital punishment and beheaded, and the rest of the other officials were also killed and exiled, but they were cleaned up in just a few months.
It is very unfortunate that although the prime minister of Qi was also regarded by the suspicious king as a powerful henchman of the abolished prince, because people really couldn't find anything wrong with doing things, they had to stumble on the government and secretly stumbling on people, and finally the cold heart of the persecution of Qi Guoxiang made a letter of resignation, and returned to the ancestral hometown of Tianyin City with the family.
Although it is indeed a huge drop from the clouds to the bottom, but looking at the bleak fate of other people, the people in Qi Mansion can only be happy in suffering, glad that they can still save a life.
At that time, the prime minister of Qi was very honest and honest and not a good woman, and there were no other concubines in the house except for his wife Shen, and it was not until he was in his thirties that he had the only son of Qi Junliang, not to mention the family wealth, and the heirs of Ding were also very thin.
Seeing that the Prime Minister's Mansion, which was hot at the beginning, could not withstand this earth-shaking change of imperial power, and the Qi family did not have the real power to shake the government and the opposition in his hands, Qi Junliang was just a yellow-mouthed child, and there was no value at all worthy of marrying the daughter of the Rongguo Mansion who had been carefully raised since he was a child.
So the marriage that made everyone extremely envious at the beginning instantly became the biggest joke in the entire Changle City.
Qi soon moved out of Changle City with the marriage book, if it weren't for the lack of age of the children at that time, I'm afraid they would not only have brought the marriage book, but the delicate concubine who Rong Guogong had always raised in the palm of his hand since he was a child.
Thanks to the age limit, Mrs. Rongguo back then and Mrs. Hua did the same thing, and the concubine who was carefully raised by the charming and well-bred couldn't marry, so she took an uneyed concubine at will.
Sure enough, it is worthy of being a mother and daughter, and there is really no difference between this method and this scheming.
When Qi Nian was led to Tianxiang Temple, he entered the Hanging Flower Gate, and on both sides were the elegant verandahs depicted by carved railings, and then entered the hall.
