As soon as Yufeng said this, the officials involved suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and one or two of them who were involved looked at someone who had already become a bird, gritted their teeth, and stepped forward to echo: "What King Ding said is very true, this is about to be the New Year, at this time, it is better to discuss and check later." ”

Li Zhengdao glared at Lian Yufeng fiercely, and almost gritted his teeth and said: "What if the ice and snow melt after the beginning of spring, causing the river embankment to collapse? Who can be responsible at that time? You must know that there are now some cracks in the river embankment that can be caught and hidden by children." ”

Let the child catch and hide, and the ministers began to look at each other again, which is too alarmist, even if there is a crack thick by a palm, it is already a very strict matter, and it is unimaginable to let the child hide when he sees it.

Lian Yufeng said in a deep voice: "Therefore, the younger brother Jian yì ordered someone to hurry up and go to investigate the truth, as long as he investigates whether the dangerous section of the river mentioned by Li Yushi is really dangerous, it can be proved to be true or false." ”

A few words made the mood of several elderly ministers fluctuate, and they couldn't get up in one breath, and almost fainted.

This time, no one can refute even Yufeng's words, and if you can't even send someone to check it, doesn't it prove that there is a problem?

In order to convince Li Zhengdao and other impeached people, he photographed several groups of people, who were the emperor's most trusted henchmen, and it was impossible to say that these groups of people lied at the same time.

Longxian is not far from Yancheng, and you can go back and forth after three days.

In the past three days, Yancheng has become a mess, many people want to leave Yancheng with their families and dependents, and there are also large bags and small bags to transfer family wealth one by one.

It's just that time is running out after all, and many people don't have time to react.

Especially two days later, the emperor received news from the flying pigeons of the personal guard, which proved that Li Yushi's impeachment was basically true. Under the fury of the thunder, he immediately issued a holy decree, and with lightning speed, he was the first to put the former Qincha Duan Zilang in prison and raided his home, and several families who followed Duan Zilang in close contact also received the same treatment, and there were also people on Li Zhengdao's impeachment list, whether they were really involved or not, they would be arrested first.

Among them are the father and son of the King of Wenjun of the Wenjun Palace.

Because the two families are in-laws. Last time, Duan Zilang's brother-in-law was involved in the performance, saying that it was involved in this matter. The people of Wenjun Wangfu also made a lot of efforts, saying that Duan Zilang killed his relatives in righteousness, how loyal he was. This made the emperor personally seal Duan Zilang as a messenger, but now it seems that it is a big joke, let alone the Wenjun Palace. Those who were originally mentioned as accomplices were treated as comrades and imprisoned.

The Emperor was furious. I just feel that I have been deceived, and no matter how much the Wenjun Mansion has to do with this matter, there are too many people with titles in Yancheng, and one less is still in the court and a group of people are missing. A holy decree seized the throne of King Wenjun, and only read on the merits of King Wenjun in the past. For the time being, it is not appropriate to detain him, and he is only under house arrest in his own mansion and is not allowed to go out. It is said that when the holy decree came to the palace of Wenjun, the princess of Wenjun and the princess Duan, fainted on the spot.

Many of the first evils knew that they couldn't escape at this time, in order not to get married, and in order to avoid humiliation, or to be persecuted, in short, they committed suicide first, and the emperor's holy decree was only to arrest people, not to kill heads, but the smell of blood has spread throughout Yancheng.

In a cry of sorrow, the New Year has arrived, although the corrupt ink case director zhì Xueduo officials were raided and destroyed, but compared to the entire Yancheng people, these people are only a small part, and they have nothing to do with it, but because the high-spirited officials and their family members were dragged out like pigs and dogs, many people felt excited, as if they were watching a big play, occasionally prisoner cars passed through the street, and the people came out in the snow to see the excitement, throwing rotten cabbage and rotten eggs, one by one elated.

The civil and military officials of the imperial family are much quieter, those who are involved but have not been liquidated are of course frightened, and those who are not involved are not involved to see so many people being unable to pass the first day of the new year, they can't help but have relatives, and it is not appropriate to celebrate at this time, so this year's New Year is much more deserted than usual.

In the Dingwang Mansion, Su Yiqing celebrated the New Year for the first time in the Great Zhou, and it was also the first time to celebrate the New Year with Lian Yufeng.

The result of the ink case was too bloody, and even Yufeng did not sue her, and asked the maids and daughters in the palace to prohibit talking about these things, so as not to frighten the princess and affect the fetus in her womb.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, there were two masters in the Dingwang Mansion, but even Yufeng still arranged this royal mansion with joy, lit many red lanterns, illuminated a harmonious atmosphere, and gave everyone in the mansion from the maids and mother-in-law to the small miscellaneous servants, and everyone gave twice as much silver as in previous years, so everyone had a happy smile on their faces.

The Chinese New Year's Eve meal is also very rich, almost including all kinds of traditional snacks of Dazhou, as well as some famous local snacks, and most importantly, some special foods of Dajing, such as soup buns, crystal shrimp dumplings, five-color rice cakes, etc., of course, Su Yiqing's favorite desserts.

This year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in Dingwangfu did not make those flashy and rare dishes as in previous years, but ordinary home-style characteristics, that is, there are more local snacks, but the ingredients are the most ordinary, no pregnant women fasting things.

For Lian Yufeng's intentions, Su Yiqing's most direct move is to open her belly and eat it, but even if she tastes a little bit of everything, her stomach can't hold so much.

When she couldn't eat anymore, she put down her chopsticks, held her stomach, and said with satisfaction: "I haven't eaten so happily for a long time." ”

Even Yu Feng's handsome face carried a smile that no woman in the world could resist, and said in a doting voice: "Have you enjoyed eating, right?" This menu is designed for the husband himself, and the dishes have been carefully selected and studied for several days. ”

Su Yiqing grinned, wanting to learn from the beautiful girls in the play to make a salute, but found that it was not convenient to bend over, so she could only give up, and said sweetly, "Then thank you." ”

The sound of the prince made the smile on Lian Yufeng's face deeper, but he learned from the little student in the play and bowed his hand, "The lady doesn't have to be polite." ”

It's a pity that the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner for two people, no matter how it is, is still a little deserted.

Su Yiqing didn't want to be like some TV series she saw in her previous life, she didn't like it and wasn't lively enough, and even the maid and woman were brought in to make up the numbers.

The custom of the Great Zhou is that the Chinese New Year's Eve should be observed and cannot sleep.

Su Yiqing and Lian Yufeng were idle. Then he fiddled with the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

First of all, even the royal wind splashed ink, painted a picture of wealth and spring, as a relative of the emperor, even the royal wind also learned these from a young age, although it is not a famous teacher but also not a promiscuous generation, serious painting also seems to be the same.

And he paints seriously, he looks more handsome and extraordinary than usual, and his demeanor is more intoxicating

Su Yiqing thought for a while. He ordered the maid to find a guqin.

A few casual fiddles. Gradually, a smooth tune was formed.

Su Yiqing's skills in playing the piano were still in Yuanping Bofu Boxue Middle School, although she didn't like it very much, but after all, she was forced to work hard by her husband. I haven't played it for many years, but at this time, I feel it, and I pour my mood into the sound of the piano, which seems to be the same.

Even Yufeng painted. She talked about the piano and didn't have time to look up. The eyes of each other blended together, and they smiled heartily, and there was an indescribable harmony.

Even Yufeng painted last night, and it was already two more ten. Su Yiqing was mentally strong, but after all, she was pregnant and tired. Even Yufeng persuaded her to go to bed and rest for a while.

But Su Yiqing felt that if she went to sleep during the New Year, she would have bad luck in the coming year. insisted on not going to bed, just around the stove, leaning on Lian Yufeng and closing his eyes to recuperate.

It's a pity to fall asleep on such a warm and sweet day, this night passed in a sweet atmosphere, and the sky was slightly bright, so Su Yiqing went to bed.

When I woke up, it was already the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, according to the custom of the Great Zhou, dumplings are eaten.

Su Yiqing was interested, so she asked Lian Yufeng to knead the dough, she rolled the dough, Lian Yufeng chopped the filling, and she made dumplings.

Even Yufeng has never been in the kitchen before, but kneading dough and chopping stuffing is easy to get started, and Su Yiqing opened a steamed bun shop with Xiaoqing's mother and son when she was in Yunzhou, Xiaoqingniang is not only good at making steamed buns, but also very good at making dumplings, there are many ways to wrap dumplings alone, and Su Yiqing has also learned a lot of dumpling tricks.

Pinching a few of the same, it's very exquisite, but it's no worse than the kitchen lady in the house.

After the dumplings were put into the pot, she also secretly marked the one wrapped in the copper coin.

After the dumplings were sandwiched to Lian Yufeng, Lian Yufeng bit out the copper coin.

Su Yiqing pretended to be happy and said, "Congratulations to Xianggong, the coming year will be auspicious." ”

Even Yufeng smiled and said: "Cheng Niangzi Jiyan, you can also eat one." ”

said that, even Yufeng sandwiched a flat dumpling and put it in Su Yiqing's bowl.

Su Yiqing bit it, it was hard, and when she spit it out, it turned out that even Yufeng hid a copper coin into the dumpling, which made her happy to eat it.

It's so good, Su Yiqing only feels that these few days are the sweetest days in her life, and she really hopes to live like this forever.

Just when the Dingwang Mansion was filled with warmth.

But the clouds cover the top of the Mongol Palace.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the day of the family reunion, Meng also stared at this group of people who were old and young.

It was his eldest son Meng Shen and his family, Meng Shen brought his son and daughter-in-law to come in with his son and daughter-in-law to find him, and on the first day of the new year, he came to the door and called a group of people like Hanako, which made him really embarrassed.

Mrs. Meng didn't want to deal with these things for Meng Ye anymore, so she ordered her subordinates to find the master, and she reunited with her son and daughter.

Meng Shen stood in the small flower hall, looking at the magnificent little flower hall, his eyes were a little resentful.

He was the eldest son of Meng Yede, who was supposed to be the heir to this mansion, but he was swept away from the house soon after his marriage, and he did not set foot in this mansion again for nearly twenty years.

When he came back this time, he had mixed feelings when he looked at the familiar and unfamiliar Yiqiē.

Meng Ye first looked at his son, and saw that his son, who was handsome back then, was now only in his thirties, and he was as old as an old man in his fifties, dark and thin, even older than him, so he looked disgusted.

Look at the eldest grandson next to him, a ten-year-old young man, his eyes are glazed, and he is growing his mouth to look at the surrounding qiē.

In addition, there are more than a dozen children who are smiling cigarettes, ranging from two or three years old to eleven or twelve years old, all of them are yellow and thin, covered with dirt, and a few are still dragging their noses, staring at the fruit snacks placed in the flower hall with saliva, and the sound of snorting hard is really unbearable.

In addition to the children, there were two women, one was younger, probably seventeen or eighteen years old, very shy, holding the youngest child in her arms, her eyes were always looking at her toes, and she didn't dare to look up, and the other said that it was a woman, but rather a mother-in-law, who looked rougher than the lowest mother-in-law in their house, with a thin face, and her eyes were like knives, staring greedily at a qiē in the flower hall. These eyes reminded him of his vicious ex-wife, needless to say, this is the niece of the maiden family that his ex-wife married to his son back then.

A woman who hates as much as his ex-wife, if it weren't for this Mi family, he wouldn't have been able to make up his mind to drive his eldest son's family to the countryside.

Just because of this Mi family, he jumped up and down after the accident at his mother's house, and instigated his son to conceive a child in his belly, and no one could help him. constantly separates their father-son relationship. At that time, it was the most difficult time in his career, where could he care about maintaining the relationship between father and son, when he found that his son was full of resentment towards him, and knew that he intended to remarry. He wanted to collude with his subordinates to drug him in his diet so that he could not have children in the future.

He immediately made a decision to expel his son's family from Yancheng and drive them to the countryside. Only give them a few dozen acres of land, so that they will not be left without food and clothing. After that, he didn't care anymore, and in the early years, the eldest son still had some backbone, and he never heard from him, and then he was probably poor. I wrote back and cried that my grandson had grown up and didn't know what my grandfather was like. Hope to come and see something like that.

At that time, he already had two more daughters, two or two, and one daughter, so where were there any grandchildren? Let her think of a way not to let them go back to Yancheng, lest people talk too much, and be taken out by someone with a heart to say, so that he will be embarrassed.

I don't know how Mrs. Meng did it, anyway, for many years, this eldest son has never come, and he has almost forgotten that there is such a son and a group of possible grandchildren and even great-grandchildren.

Why did this son come to the door on the first day of the Lunar New Year?

Meng Ye was looking at the group of people with a gloomy face.

The child in the young woman's arms burst into tears, pointing to the pastries on the table, crying for food.

The young woman couldn't be coaxed, Meng Shen probably felt embarrassed, and scolded loudly, but the child cried even louder, and brought several other older children to make a fuss, and suddenly there was a commotion in the flower hall.

Meng also has a big head.

casually summoned the housekeeper and took the group of children down to eat something, no matter where it was, as long as it didn't disturb him.

The young woman followed the butler with a large group of children at Michael's signal.

Mi came up at this time, kowtowed respectfully and said, "My daughter-in-law has seen my father-in-law." ”

"Alright, you can go down too. Meng also waved his hand in disgust, as if chasing flies.

Mi Shi was a little unwilling, but he didn't dare to make a fuss, so he could only gesture to Meng Shen with his eyes before going out.

Finally cleared up, Meng Ye saw his son's old appearance, after all, he was still a little unbearable, sighed and said, "Sit down and talk." ”

"The father is on top, but the son does not dare to sit down. Meng Shen lowered his head and said, although he already looked like an old farmer, but after all, he was also a rich son back then, and he still knew some upbringing

"If you want to sit down, you can sit, what are you talking about?" Meng was also a little impatient.

"Yes. Meng Shen sat down at this time, but his butt was a little stained on the chair, and he didn't dare to sit firmly.

Meng didn't want to talk nonsense, so he went straight to the point: "It's the New Year, you don't have a good New Year at home, what are you doing in Yancheng with your family?"

Meng Shen lowered his head, looked at the old clothes on his body, and said: "I haven't asked my father for many years, and several children haven't seen their grandfather, especially Nian Zu, he is your great-grandson...... The son thought that his father often fought outside, and if it wasn't for the New Year, he was afraid that things would not be easy to encounter, so he took advantage of the New Year to pay New Year's greetings to his father. ”

"You have filial piety. Meng also sneered, "There is no one else here, just our father and son, there is no need to say anything against his will, and I don't want to mention the past, but do you really think that I will be happy to come here for the Chinese New Year or will your stepmother and younger brothers and sisters be happy?"

"Father, no matter how much a son is, grandson is always your bloodline, but these children are poor because their families are poor, and they can't afford to read or practice martial arts. Monshen knew that his father's heart was as hard as iron, and ordinary pleading was useless, and he could only mention his son and grandson.

It's okay not to mention his grandson, mentioning his grandson, Meng Ye thought of the children who snorted so loudly just now, and couldn't help but look disgusted, he really didn't want to admit that those children were also his blood, so he interrupted Meng Shen's words in annoyance, "Do you want silver, how much do you want, you say?"

One sentence made Meng Shen feel humiliated again, and he pursed his lips and stopped talking.

Meng Ye sneered: "What, don't you want money? That's better, now that I've seen and seen, after eating, you can take the child home, I will order someone to prepare a car for you." ”

"Father. Monshen shouted. "Are you really that hard-hearted?"

"If I were really hard-hearted, I would have beaten you to death a long time ago. Meng also reminded, "Think about what you said when you went out? Say that one day I will regret it, and you will break out of the world by yourself, and what will be the result? Twenty years have passed, what have you broken through?"

Monshen was speechless.

Meng Ye said again: "It's not that I underestimated you back then, you don't do big things with this temperament." The ears are soft and soft. I can't even be a squire of the peace, and when you went out for your father, you broke out with one punch and one kick. What about you, what can you do?"

Meng Shen's face turned red, and his fists clenched.

Meng also sighed. "No matter what, no enmity can not be a father and son. I will only ask you to collect debts, and if you have no more, I will give you another two hundred taels of silver, and I will order twenty taels of silver for you every month in the future. You just live in the countryside and don't come to Yancheng again. ”

Two hundred taels of silver, when should it be called a flower child? Meng Shen looked at the calligraphy and painting ornaments in this flower hall. Whatever was not worth a few hundred taels of silver, and now two hundred taels of silver would have sent him away? I have already thrown my sleeves out, but unfortunately in the past ten years, he has let the reality blow, not so hard, and he doesn't say no, just begging: "Father, it's freezing this day, and the son is fine, but the children are still young, if they are frozen on the road, how can it be good? Can you wait for the New Year, the weather is warmer before leaving, besides, the son hasn't seen a few younger brothers and sisters?" I heard that my sister became a princess, I was really happy, my son was already in the countryside when my sister was born, and I haven't seen my sister's face, and I think my sister must be a woman with a blue heart. ”

"Who do you think is the princess?" Meng also raised an eyebrow.

"Naturally, it's my sister. "Meng Shen has heard from the mouths of the subordinates sent to the countryside by the Mongolian Mansion to deliver things over the years, and Meng has also added two sons and a daughter over the years, but he doesn't know the names of his younger brothers and sisters, only the ranking.

The reason why he came this time was instigated by Mi, saying that his two younger brothers were inferred by age, and they were almost at the age of getting married, and they would get married in two years, and if they had children, the Meng family would have no place for them to stand, so they had to take advantage of the present to bring the children, and this Meng was also hard-hearted, and he would not disown his grandson and great-grandson.

Meng Shen expressed his doubts about this, he has a son is not a day or two, great-grandchildren have it, and I haven't seen the Meng family ask more than half a sentence, I want to come to Meng is a hard-hearted person, but suspicion is suspicion, he also has a glimmer of hope in his heart, after all, these years are not as good as a day, he is unwilling to guard the field to be a small landlord, Mi has also been instigating, so he tossed and did business, and the result was tossed and tossed, the field was tossed and fewer, fortunately, there was also the Meng family to send money and things every few months, otherwise he would have gone to the street to ask for food every few months, Rao is so, this day is almost unbearable, so he gritted his teeth and came to Yancheng。

Meng Ye didn't even look at Meng Shen, and said lightly: "It's not your third sister who married into the Dingwang Mansion as a princess. ”

"Ah?" Meng also showed a surprised expression, but he obviously heard the people on the street say this, and specially inquired with the people of several teahouses, is there any fake? But this is not right, in addition to his own sister, the Meng family also has a sister from a stepmother, could it be that the Meng family has other daughters over the years.

Meng Ye then said: "It is your second sister who is the princess...... Speaking of which, you've seen this sister before...... The daughter born to my aunt was beaten and scolded by your mother a lot. ”

For a while, Meng also forgot what the name of Jì Xiaofu's biological mother was, but forget it, it doesn't matter if it's vague in the past, anyway, at that time, he had two concubines, and he gave birth to only one daughter.

At this mentions, Meng Shen remembered, it seems that there is indeed such a sister, but the sense of storage is very weak, so many years, the person who sent things has never mentioned this sister, he almost forgot about it.

"Oh, I remembered...... Auntie, an aunt who is very good at playing the flute. Meng Shen muttered, he couldn't remember what the aunt's name was, he only vaguely remembered that he liked to play the flute very much, and the flute was melodious, but his mother hated it, and he was always reprimanded, and he was not allowed to play it when his father was away.

Meng Ye said: "I won't hide it from you, the death of that aunt was done by your mother, and now that your aunt's daughter has become a princess, she should still remember some things." (To be continued)

ps: Fat chapter, it's understandable to be later.
