Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Dust Settles

Mrs. Jiang stood up from the soft couch, and she didn't want Xu's Zhen to step forward to help, Fa Fu's body was straight, and her old face was like a full moon and ruddy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

She stepped forward and took Jiang Li's hand and said to the two pairs of daughters-in-law in the house, "Do you know why I love your third brother the most? Because your third brother is filial to his father and loyal to the court. With filial piety and loyalty, he was able to endure humiliation and bear the burden for so many years and fulfill your father's last wish. But you, you ・・・・・・・."

The old lady pointed at the Jiang Zongwu brothers and shook her hands, "Your father named you Yiwu Yiwen, but he really disappointed me!" ”

Jiang Zongwu, who has been silent, is over half a hundred years old, and he bows down to his mother. Hearing this, he didn't dare to say that Jiang Li was not, but said: "Then I'll go and inquire now to see if there is any movement in the court." Thinking about it, as long as Qin Xiang falls, the Jiang family will not be afraid of his revenge. In the past few days, the people in our house have also reduced their going out, whether it is a blessing or a curse, and we will bear it as a family. ”

The old lady was calm. At present, the men in the two rooms of the Jiang family were arranged to go out to inquire about the news, and the Xu family and the Zhen family went back to the courtyard to obey the orders. Jiang Li was left behind by the old lady.

At dusk, the Jiang family, who had gone out to investigate, sat down again in Mrs. Jiang's Zhiyuan. Jiang Zongwu took out a letter in his hand. The letter was written by Mrs. Liu. He read it to Mrs. Jiang: Turning to the Eighth Prince's dictation, the evidence presented by the Jiang father and daughter has reached the heavens, Qin Xiang has been secretly detained, and the results will be announced soon. The Jiang family gave evidence of merit and was rewarded later.

The Jiang family increased the quota with their hands and celebrated. Mrs. Jiang even took Jiang Li's hand, praising her for being better than her brothers in the family, and her love for Jiang Li was several times greater than in the past.

Taking advantage of the old lady's happiness, Jiang Li begged the old lady to let go of the maid in the Hanxiang Garden. The old lady was relieved and promised to be exempted from the punishment of the maids. However, Punishment Jiangli was grounded in the Hanxiang Garden with them.

Such a punishment is insignificant to Jiang Li, whether it is grounded, she just relaxes.

It was rare for a period of time in the Hanxiang Garden to be truly quiet. During this time, the old lady found a companion reading boy for Jiang Ju in the house, named Zhimo. Jiang Ju began to go to the school on time every day.

Jiang Li really stayed in the Hanxiang Garden every day, reading and painting every day, and never mentioned going out again.

books, read some wild history biography, ghosts and strange tales, etc., and occasionally find Qingzhou local chronicles to study. Painting, since its rebirth, the art of painting has been greatly reduced. Xiao Xiang has seen the pictures full of paper strips and frames, like a garden pattern, with some digital footnotes, and I can't understand what is drawn at all.

However, Jiang Li's enthusiasm for creating pictures was very high, and a large easel was set up in the courtyard, and he often walked around the courtyard after painting.

A person said to himself, saying that this was originally to be a hall, where to make an auditorium, where to plan out to make a stage, and the kind that would bring an echo; Where to make pavilions and water pavilions, raise a pool of colorful goldfish and then decorate half a pond of lotus; Where to make a big hot spring bath out, separated by a small wooden house to divide male and female guests; There is also a barbecue game venue in the open air, and there are supporting barbecue grills, tables and chairs in the garden.

Jiang Li's words were strange, no one took it seriously, even the careful green pothos entertained herself. But it's strange to say, Jiang Li didn't care about the painting, let it sit in the yard, and look at it again the next day, and laugh when she looked at it, as if after a night, the painting became a pattern that she was satisfied with.

In the end, the drawn sample was handed over to the eldest grandmother Xu for review, and a detailed list of planned expenses for materials, wages, and labor was attached.

Xu couldn't see anything, let Jiang Rui and Jiang Hao see it, the brothers saw that they wanted to build a novel garden, and they changed their new and strange titles for eating, drinking and playing, and they thought it was very interesting, how could anyone disagree. In the end, Xu asked someone to say that the pattern of the garden was very good, so it was built in this way.

Jiang Li gave another candidate for supervision, that is, Xia Cheng, the modifier of this pattern.

When everything was ready, the Jiang family began to work intensively to lead people to start construction in the newly purchased garden.

These days, Jiang Li stays at home, but he knows a lot about things outside. It's all news from Xia Cheng.

The matter of Qin Xiang's investigation was kept secret in the court. The court did not see Qin Xiang come to the court for a long time, and at first he said that he was seriously ill, and he died of illness not long after.

It is rare that the imperial court did not make a big deal about the death of the prime minister, Qin Yuanhua is still Qin Yuanhua, except that there is no father who leans towards the government and the opposition, he is still unharmed. Even, the emperor let him continue to live in the prime minister's mansion, mourn his father, and continue to live the life of his noble son.

Such a result surprised the Jiang family, who knew the inside story. Jiang Li couldn't guess the mystery either, thinking that the eighth prince knew it, but the eighth prince didn't want to see it. Although he said that time in Xiangguo Temple that he had any requirements from the Jiang family that could be mentioned to him alone, he said that casually, and Jiang Li didn't take it seriously.

As for the Jiang family, Liu Taiwei transferred to the eighth prince that the reward that the imperial court would give to the Jiang family did not materialize, and the imperial court only issued an order to let Jiang Zongjin return to Beijing to take up his post, and the imperial court had other arrangements for him.

As soon as the order came out, the Jiang family thought that Jiang Zongjin would definitely be added to the rank when he returned to Beijing.

After the summer, the old servant who went to Qingzhou with Jiang Zongjin came back with a team of officials to protect Jiang Zongjin, but he was transported back in a cold coffin. The official version is that not long after the order was transferred to Qingzhou, Jiang Zongjin died suddenly.

At the same time, there was also Aunt Zhao's spiritual seat. It is said that not long after Jiang Ju left Qingzhou with Sixi, Aunt Zhao died and committed suicide. It was Jiang Zongjin who watched the cremation, and the ashes were scattered in Qingzhou and not brought back. Only bring one spiritual seat back to Jiang Ju to sacrifice in the morning and evening.

According to the old servant who followed Jiang Zongjin to Qingzhou, Jiang Zongjin often said before his death that he would be buried with his original wife Mei when he died. According to his wishes, the Jiang family built a new tomb next to the tomb of the Mei family not far from the ancestor of the Jiang family outside the city, and the two tombs were connected together to form a double cave tomb.

For a long time after the burial, Jiang Li still often went to the tomb to put incense paper. Sometimes I brought Jiang Ju, sometimes I brought Xiaoxiang, and I stayed in front of the tomb for half a day.

Oddly enough, she rarely shed tears. She always felt that her father's death was unusual, and for this suspicion, she wanted to find someone to ask for clarification. Ask what was written in the letter that his father gave him. The person she wanted to ask was the Eighth Prince.

She just wanted to, but someone went to ask her. This man also found the cemetery today. (To be continued.) )
