Chapter 48: The Scandal

When there is never tranquility in Yuanping Bofu, there is no excitement in the third room, but there is a four-room room.

Aunt Chen, who is in the fourth room, has a miscarriage.

It is said that it was given by Aunt Qin.

Aunt Chen cried like a tearful person, and she always wanted Master Su Si to call the shots.

Master Su Si was so angry that he wanted to beat Aunt Qin to death, but Mrs. Cen stopped her, the reason was very simple, Aunt Chen had a miscarriage and was still young, although the doctor suspected that she had eaten something wrong, but he could not accurately judge whether it was caused by the drug, and Aunt Qin's maid went to the kitchen to fry the medicine for Aunt Qin, and no one saw that it was the maid who poisoned her.

And Mrs. Cen also said that she had raised the second room before, saying that she did not approve of the second room when she first lifted the second room, but the heirs of the four houses were thin, and the fourth master said Aunt Qin's eight characters so well, she couldn't say anything, and the grandmother was embarrassed, and then the fourth master Su didn't like the two maids she sent, so she recruited them back and pasted the dowry to marry the maids.

Since Aunt Qin is a second room that she brought in seriously, or she was born in a family of eunuchs, she can't be punished and sold at will as an ordinary maid through the room, before the Chen sisters deliberately tortured Aunt Qin, a good person is now dying, where is the energy to do this kind of thing, Aunt Qin and the fourth old man and wife, the so-called one night husband and wife for a hundred days, undocumented and unfounded, why bother to do such a vicious thing?

Fourth Master Su was speechless, so he had to return Aunt Qin to the Qin family under Mrs. Cen's decision, and her life, old age, sickness and death had nothing to do with her in the future.

However, not long after Aunt Qin left, rumors spread outside.

revealed the bottom of Xiao Chen's family, saying that when Xiao Chen's family was in his mother's house, he was given as a plaything to officials and business partners who had business dealings with the Chen family to sleep with, and he was no different from a prostitute.

It is rumored that there is a nose and right eye, and even the names of several officials and wealthy businessmen have been said, and those who are officials want to save face, and naturally deny them with righteous words, and the rich businessmen have no scruples, and will only smile.

No matter how much Master Su Si likes Xiao Chen, he can't stand so many green hats on top of his head.

However, the more exciting is still to come, and a scandal broke out in Kangjun Palace.

It is said that the little girl who was raised by the princess of the county actually died, which was nothing, filial piety at that age was easy to die, but the baby girl who was pregnant and had a real estate didn't live for a few days.

The baby girl was born at term, and at the beginning, the doctor diagnosed that there was no disease and no disaster, and rumors flew in the palace that Princess Kangjun did not want to raise two money-losing goods, so she deliberately killed the child.

At this time, Tongfang, who had just given birth to a child, went crazy, and jumped out to correct that although the two aunts who Princess Kangjun gave to the prince were from a white family, they asked Qinglou's mother to carefully train them for more than half a year, and it was clear that they wanted to seduce the prince and hollow out the prince's body while the prince was young.

As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was in an uproar, and at this time, the princess seized the opportunity to strictly interrogate the two aunts before the prince came back, and the aunt confessed, and even the mother of the Qinglou was responsible for the training.

King Kangjun was furious, Wei Zhen blew the pillow wind on the side, and the angry King Kangjun immediately reported to the Zongren Mansion to retire the princess of the county.

The news reached Yuanping Bofu.

Even the Bofu was boiling.

Putting aside how the other rooms reacted for the time being, Xu was gloating on the side, saying that it was to see how the Jiang family would put virtuous money in front of her in the future, and his daughter and Wei Zhen had made the county palace a miasma, and if she really wanted to be virtuous, she should persuade her daughter to value peace, even if there was really something ugly, she should help cover it up, and it was really unreasonable to make such a fuss.

It just so happened that Mrs. Zhou came to the Bofu to visit her grandson and granddaughter-in-law, and when she saw that the Xu family was gloating too much, she frowned and said: "The Kangjun Mansion and the Yuanping Bofu are in-laws, if the Kangjun Mansion falls, maybe the Yuanping Bofu will also have something." ”

Xu Shi was surprised: "No, isn't it just that wives and concubines compete for favor, and mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not in harmony? Who doesn't have it, don't say it, Yuanping Bofu has it the day before yesterday, then it will be strict to the point that it is going to fall, even if it falls, it's just an in-law, where can it affect Yuanping Bofu." ”

Mrs. Zhou looked around at only the Xu family, Su Yiqing and Jiang Yuebai, and lowered his voice and said: "I also heard a little rumor, I don't know if it is accurate, and the person in charge who was sent to the northwest to purchase goods came back and said that the northwest border has been quite unquiet in the past two years, and there have been several disputes, and it is said that there was a small fight not long ago...... I estimate that if this continues, something big may happen, and the most important thing for the court to use troops abroad is silver. ”

The Xu family still didn't understand, what does the outbreak of war have to do with the wives and concubines of the county king's mansion competing for favor?

Su Yiqing immediately thought of an allusion in history, the big corrupt official and the murder of the people, there is a proverb among the people, "and when you fall, Jiaqing is full." It is said that Emperor Qiankun has long wanted to dispose of peace, but he insisted on leaving it to his son Jiaqing, and the mediocre Emperor Jiaqing has been the emperor for decades by relying on his greedy wealth.

King Kangjun's wealth may not be comparable to the most corrupt officials in history, but it should be a lot, and he can afford to raise so many beauties, he is definitely rich, and I heard that King Kangjun is very good at collecting money.

But just with that little thing in the backyard, is it possible to let a county king raid his house?

Mrs. Zhou obviously guessed something, but she didn't want to say more, she only asked the Xu family to manage the property of the manor shop, and some shops that needed to go to the northwest to buy goods, try to buy as many goods as possible, in case of emergency, and this matter was just a private guess, and it should not be said to the outside.

When she said this, Mrs. Zhou's eyes were staring at Jiang Yuebai, and Jiang Yuebai said again and again that she would never say half a word and would not say anything to anyone.

After Mrs. Zhou left.

Su Yiqing also returned to Mrs. Cen.

Mrs. Cen rarely talked to her in the past, and talked in the house for a long time, seeing her ignorant, her brows furrowed, and she simply asked directly, "I heard that Brother Xu's daughter-in-law's brother doesn't plan to participate in this examination, is it true?"

Jiang Yueming didn't plan to participate in the exam, Su Yiqing was stunned for a moment, and then said, "This granddaughter hasn't heard the fifth sister-in-law mention it." ”

"You really don't know?" Mrs. Cen stared at Su Yiqing with her eyes.

Su Yiqing generously greeted Mrs. Tai's eyes and said calmly: "If grandmother wants to know, granddaughter can immediately ask the fifth sister-in-law, and the fifth sister-in-law will not hide it." ”

She really didn't know, and she didn't think there was anything to hide from it.

"No need, I'll just ask casually, Jiang Jieyuan is so good at learning, it's a pity not to participate in this exam. Mrs. Cen subconsciously avoided Su Yiqing's eyes and said with a calm face, "It's okay, you go back to the room." ”

Su Yiqing saluted and slowly retreated.

As soon as Su Yiqing left, Mrs. Cen immediately said to Mama Jin: "Look at it, it's just a question for her, what kind of attitude does she have, she is so weird at a young age, it's really annoying, I pity my nephew, and I want to face such a daughter-in-law in the future." ”

Mama Jin actually didn't think there was anything wrong with Su Yiqing's attitude, although compared to other young ladies, she was a little cold to Mrs. Tai, without too much flattery, but she was polite and thoughtful, and there was nothing inappropriate, and said with a smile: "Miss Nine is still young, it's okay to teach slowly." ”

"I'm going to get married in a year, when will I have to teach?" When Mrs. Cen thought of Su Yiqing's eyes, she felt uncomfortable for a while, and she couldn't wait for Su Yiqing to marry tomorrow.
