Everyone followed the prestige, but when they saw the mountain rocks, three people walked out, first of all an old man wearing a square scarf and a brown straight embellished, about Jiazi in age, with a gray beard fluttering in the wind, quite a fairy wind bone.

Behind him was a young man, dressed in short clothes, and another young man in his early twenties, with black gauze webbed head and light cyan straight embellishment.

Everyone felt that the faces of these three people were tight, but only Ruan Yue, when he saw the old man, his face changed even more.

The old man walked around from the mountain road and greeted Ruan Yue and said, "What's the matter, the eldest nephew, he is a high-ranking official, and he doesn't even recognize the uncle of his own family?"

Ruan Yue was amazed at how they could get into Yanziji, but he also squeezed out a smile and arched his hand: "When did the fifth uncle arrive in the capital?

Nguyen Thai also hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

The old man ignored their salutes, and replied, "Didn't you go to the mansion of the nephew of the squire a few days ago?" It's just that your old mother sent her nephew and daughter-in-law out, saying that the mansion was simple and inconvenient to receive ......."

Ruan Yue smiled and reached out to pull the old man's arm, "It's also my nephew who is busy with official business, and I'm crazy, how can I believe her words? ”

When he saw Lian Tao appear, he was actually shocked in his heart, but he regretted that he was in the limelight here today.

The old man lowered his face to block Ruan Yue's hand, and everyone saw that something was wrong, so they paid more attention, and more and more people gathered.

But I heard the old man say loudly: "Qinghe County has been flooded year after year, and many people in the clan have a difficult livelihood, and the 1,000 taels of silver that support your family every year can't afford to pay it anymore, and the land occupied by the clansmen will also be returned for the sake of the same clan." ”

Ruan Yue's face immediately changed. He said, "How can there be such a thing?"

There was a lot of discussion around, Ruan Yue had a good reputation before, and they all said that they were bullied by people when they were widows and weak sons in the township when they were young. Thanks to their hard work, it sounds like they're bullying their people.

A family in Xiaoqinghe County supports 1,000 taels a year, I'm afraid it's not a sky-high price?

The old man sneered, but the short-dressed man behind him took out a ledger from his arms and opened it with a "swish". Presented to the crowd: "In addition to a thousand taels of silver, is there less of the things that are sent to the house at four o'clock?

Ruan Yue didn't take this accusation seriously. He arched his hands to the onlookers and said, "The family is unfortunate, so I told you to see the joke." Tinghua lost his father at the age of seven, and the Ruan family was extremely vicious, occupying all the land and property that my ancestors had already given to my family. Both of my brothers depend on my mother to sell embroidery for a living. I don't want to be lifted as a teenager. They changed their faces, and not only returned part of the land, but also said that the clan would pay for my education. The ancestors of my Ruan family have instructed that those who have succeeded in the children of the mortal clan will give them the strength of the whole clan. When he entered Beijing to take the exam, he also received one hundred taels of silver from the clan. ”

The three of them didn't interrupt Ruan Yue's speech, and only looked at him with disdain.

Ruan Yue was not afraid of them, and caught a glimpse of their expression. But my heart became more and more uneasy, and I couldn't help but make it clear. Forced to calm down, he smiled and continued: "Everyone knows that Tinghua's benefactor is Zheng Zhitong Zheng of Huai'an Mansion, as for the clansmen, after Ruan became a protégé of the Son of Heaven, he didn't want to bring up the old things again and treat each other with courtesy, but what did you have in mind, or rush into Beijing to frame me here?"

The old man turned to the Zhou family: "Virtuous nephew and daughter-in-law, please be fair, am I sorry for your family Ruan, or is your Ruan family bullying the neighbors and wantonly collecting wealth after making a fortune?"

Zhou was about to speak, Ruan Yue had already taken a step forward and shouted, "You are entangled with a madman, what are your intentions?"

"Crazy?" Zhou shook his head, his face full of misery, and then chuckled: "Ruan Tinghua, if I am crazy, you and your mother will take me out to socialize together?

Everyone listened to Zhou's speech clearly, his attitude was calm, and his face was even kinder, and they unconsciously believed her words and talked about it.

Luo was frightened when he heard this, so he grabbed Yahuan's hand and said, "Quick, quick, let's go back and tell Mrs. Tai." As he spoke, he had already turned around, and he didn't care about the difficulty of the mountain road, so he walked quickly in the direction of Guanyin Pavilion.

Ruan Yue looked around for the servant, and disappeared for a while, Ruan Taise shrank aside, obviously not daring to do anything to his sister-in-law, so annoyed that he stepped forward to pull the Zhou family in person: "Crazy woman, go back and reason with you." ”

Lian Tao and the short-dressed man both jumped up and blocked Ruan Yue's way.

The old man saw that Ruan Yue couldn't rush over, so he sleeved his hands and said: "Two years ago, I went back to my hometown to worship my ancestors, you fell in love with a woman from a good family, and she designed someone to kill her husband, and then she was a good person to seek revenge for her. This murder case is not a trivial matter, and the virtuous nephew must go to the court to explain it. ”

"How can there be such a thing!" Ruan Yue was about to argue, but he heard a coquettish reprimand, "Thief, return my husband's life......"

Although this voice was a young female voice, the anger and resentment contained in it shocked Ruan Yue's hands and feet, and he almost fell to the ground.

After the yellow lotus tree, a little woman with a vegan body turned out, which was really beautiful and compelling, and the charm was extraordinary.

Before Ruan Yue could speak, Zhou had already said: "Who should I be, it turned out to be the sister of the Xu family, this is actually the person I married, and I hurt you!"

Xu threw himself on Zhou's body and cried sadly.

Listening to what the old man said, the Xu family thought that her husband was beaten to death by a group of splashes, and the champion who returned to her hometown to worship her ancestors avenged her and took someone, so she was naturally grateful, Ruan Yue was young and romantic, so he must have followed him like this.

Zhou patted her and persuaded: "We are all ordinary hard-working people, he not only wants to kill me, but also kills you, just to marry the Xinchuan County Lord of Chengen's family......"

The two women hugged and cried like tears, but Ruan Yue looked like he wanted to eat them alive.

Zhou wiped away his tears, and smiled faintly at him, as if talking to himself and accusation, but his voice was clear and transparent: "After winning the champion, you drill camp in the officialdom and know what you do." Marrying a chicken and marrying a dog is not something that a woman should be in charge of. It's just that you shouldn't, you shouldn't, you shouldn't, you're obsessed with it, and you have fallen in love with the daughter of the Ling family!"

Lian Tao was dumbfounded when he heard that his sister seemed to be mentioned, he always thought that his sister had been poisoned by Ruan Yue, and he didn't expect that Zhou would tell this fatal secret in public, even if he was simple-minded, he didn't know if it was appropriate, and he didn't know whether to stop Zhou or let her continue.

Zhou Shi continued: "You never thought that a merchant's daughter would become the crown princess, right......? But now you can't sleep at night, and you're always afraid of the East Window incident......" (To be continued. )
