It was drizzling on this day, Gu Sanniang took her two children to write a letter in the house, and after a while, Caiyun came in, and she said, "There are people in the master's yard." ”

Gu Sanniang looked up and saw the servant woman who sent her over that day standing at the door, Youwang's family, it was raining outside, and Youwang's back was wet, Gu Sanniang stood up and let her into the house, and said, "It turned out to be my sister-in-law, what do you have to say from the master." ”

Youwang's family said with a smile: "The elder entourage next to the master sent a message, saying that the master is coming to his house today, and he asked the grandmother to take her brother and sister to the main room for dinner." ”

Gu Sanniang agreed, since she met Prime Minister Jiang Cheng on the first day she entered the mansion, she had never seen him again, and after all this time, I don't know what the news from Shen Zhuo's side was, and when I saw him today, I could just ask.

After the Wang family left, Gu Sanniang changed her clothes, and took the two children to the front yard, and when she walked to the middle of the main courtyard, she met Princess Jichang, who was holding an umbrella by herself, with a little girl in a robe, and after seeing Gu Sanniang, she bowed slightly to her, and walked straight ahead.

This Princess Jichang treats people coldly, Gu Sanniang didn't rush to talk to her, she and her two children followed behind, Xiao Yezi and Yu Ge'er have always been sensible and polite as long as they are outside, and the two children are also quiet.

Entering the courtyard, Prime Minister Jiang Cheng stood under the corridor to watch the rain, he saw them coming, smiled and beckoned to Brother Yu'er, and said, "Brother Yu'er, come here." ”

Brother Yu was originally holding an umbrella with Gu Sanniang, he glanced up at Gu Sanniang, let go of her hand, and ran towards Prime Minister Jiang Cheng with his legs in the rain, not wanting to take just a few steps, he slipped and fell, Gu Sanniang was startled, and when he was about to step forward, Prime Minister Jiang Cheng had already helped Brother Yu up first.

He took a closer look first, and when he saw that Brother Yu'er hadn't fallen, he looked at him and said, "Be more careful next time." ”

Brother Yu nodded obediently, and Princess Jichang saw that Prime Minister Jiang Cheng was still in the rain, so she took the umbrella in her hand to the little girl and motioned her to hold an umbrella for Prime Minister Jiang Cheng.

Gu Sanniang saw that Princess Jichang was drenched in the rain, so she moved the umbrella above her head and said, "Don't call the rain sick, let's go down the corridor first." ”

Princess Jichang nodded, and the two walked together to the porch to shelter from the rain, and a servant woman in the house took out a cloth towel to wipe the hands of the royal brother, except for the wet clothes, nothing else was in the way.

After a while, Jiang Jinyan and Sun also came, and his husband and wife were interested, holding an umbrella together, talking affectionately while walking, until they saw Jiang Zhongming when they came in, the young couple stopped, stood in front of him, and shouted respectfully: "Dad, your house is here." ”

Jiang Zhongming said 'um', he looked at Jiang Jinyan and said, "You are at home all day, remember to lead Brother Yu'er to study, don't waste time." ”

Jiang Jinyan didn't dare to object, he replied: "Yes!" ”

Brother Yu is also a little clever, he bowed to Jiang Jinyan and said, "There is Third Uncle Lao." ”

Jiang Jinyan looked at their only grandchild, only felt that there was an indescribable feeling in his heart, he and Shen Zhuo were more than ten years apart, and the number of times they met could be counted by a slap, a few years ago, Shen Zhuo broke away from the clan, and even changed his name, at that time he was studying in school, and his classmates didn't say it, but they were secretly laughing at him in their hearts, originally Jiang Jinyan also hated Shen Zhuo for ruining the reputation of the Jiang family, and then he left the capital, and then after a long time, Jiang Jinyan gradually forgot about it.

Now, the Jiang family wants to recognise Shen Zhuo, there are many opponents in the clan, but his father insists on this, and the clan is helpless, Jiang Jinyan is a filial son, he thinks that since it is his father's idea, it must be reasonable, as long as he obeys the order.

At this time, it was not yet the time for Jiang's family to eat, and the house was a little stuffy, and the three women simply stood under the porch to watch the rain, just because the daughters-in-law were there, Jiang Zhongming went into the house to avoid, and Jiang Jinyan obediently followed him in.

Sun leaned on the pillar, she saw Xiao Yezi and Yu Ge'er squatting under the eaves to count the raindrops, and said enviously: "When I hear the children's laughter at home, the adults can't help but be a little lighter." ”

In the past few days, the Sun family often came to talk to Gu Sanniang, Gu Sanniang gradually became acquainted with her, she heard the Sun family pretending to be an old man, and couldn't help laughing: "How old are you, and you dare to call yourself an adult?" ”

Sun said confidently: "I have become a relative to my father-in-law, so I am naturally an adult!" ”

Princess Jichang next to her glanced at her and said, "Who was the last time who quarreled with Jin Sanye and came to me to cry!" ”

Sun's face turned red, and the embarrassing thing was taken out in public, she glared at Princess Jichang, stomped her feet and said, "I won't tell you, you all bully me." ”

After speaking, she turned around and ran into the house, Gu Sanniang saw that she was as childish as Brother Yu'er, and couldn't help laughing, Princess Jichang also seemed to think that Sun was very interesting, her expressionless face also had a hint of a smile, Gu Sanniang next to her saw her smile for the first time, and couldn't help but look at her a few more times, Princess Jichang noticed her gaze, so she put away her smile and pretended to look at the rain outside.

Not long after, a mother-in-law came to spread the word, saying that the meal had been arranged, Gu Sanniang and Princess Jichang entered one after the other, and at this time, Jiang Zhongming and Jiang Jinyan had already come out.

There are few people in the house, although there are two seats for men and women, but only separated by a screen in the middle, Jiang Zhongming and Jin Jiang Yan and Yu Ge'er sat on a table, Gu Sanniang and the three of them sat in the middle with Xiao Yezi, just sat down, there was a maid to bring hot water and towels, Gu Sanniang was in her hometown before, she had never seen these rules, that is, in the East Courtyard, just their mother and son, there was no need to be restrained, at this time Princess Jichang and the Sun family were there, Gu Sanniang was afraid of doing something wrong and making jokes, so she secretly watched what others did, she only followed the study, as for Xiao Yezi, She has read books, is smart and quick-witted, and is more decent than Gu Sanniang.

Wash your hands and rinse your mouth, and after a long time, then you start to eat, they don't have the elders of the Jiang Mansion at the table, and they don't need the daughters-in-law to set up rules, so they eat their own after the banquet, that Gu Sanniang has something in her heart, she used it slightly, and then pricked up her ears to listen to the movement on the other side of the screen, but the rules of the big family, you don't want to talk during dinner, so it's quiet over there, and you can't hear anything.

I don't know how long it was, Gu Sanniang heard the faint sound of tables and chairs next door, and then saw Jiang Jinyan and asked, "Dad, have you eaten?" ”

Jiang Zhongming's deep voice responded, and then he seemed to walk out of the hall, Gu Sanniang listened for a long time, then lowered her head and used a few dishes, and said to Princess Jichang and Sun: "I've eaten well, you use it slowly." ”

Princess Jichang and Sun put down the chopsticks together and let her go, Gu Sanniang turned her head and said to Xiao Yezi: "After eating, I will go back with Brother Yu and Liu Wupo." ”

Xiao Yezi nodded, and she said, "Got it." ”

After explaining, Gu Sanniang got up and walked out, and there was a servant woman guarding the door who was waiting for her, and she asked, "Has the master returned to the house?" ”

The servant woman said, "The lord is in the courtyard." ”

The rain stopped, the sky was slightly dark, the houses in the house had already lit up the lanterns, Gu Sanniang walked down the steps, she saw Jiang Zhongming looking up at the night sky with his hands in his hands, so she also looked up, the dark clouds dispersed, revealing a few stars, it looked like it was clear, but the moon was hairy, maybe when, it would rain heavily.

Looking at the figure not far away, Gu Sanniang settled down, she walked over, stopped not far from him, and said, "Master." ”

Jiang Zhongming still looked at the night sky as if he hadn't heard it, Gu Sanniang knew that he had heard it, she thought for a while, and said, "When will Ah Zhuo go home?" ”

Jiang Zhongming lowered his head at this time, he glanced at Gu Sanniang, and said lightly: "It's just these days." ”

"What?" Gu Sanniang was stunned, she just thought she had heard it wrong, so she stood in place and looked at Jiang Zhongming in a daze, hoping that he could say it again.

Jiang Zhongming's face was calm, and he said: "The case will be closed in two days." ”

Gu Sanniang's mind was dizzy, she thought stupidly, no wonder she has to be an official, and if someone says a word, it will be more useful than how many futile things she has done.

She just thought about the benefits of being an official, but she didn't know that Jiang Zhongming almost stirred up most of the court in order to rehabilitate Shen Zhuo, it turned out that Dali Temple had not been able to close the case for a long time, Jiang Zhongming appointed the prime minister of the cabinet to the case, and the An family faction wrote to impeach, saying that the first offender in the imperial examination fraud case was his own son, and he should avoid suspicion, but Jiang Zhongming was unmoved.

This is also thanks to the recent Emperor Jingwen lazy to take care of the government, a few months ago, the lingering sickbed Emperor Jingwen was obsessed with seeking immortality, and there was a group of Taoist priests in the palace, refining pills every day, making the palace a miasma, and not long after, he and several Taoist priests retreated and practiced, and they did not go to the court for half a month.

The witnesses recruited by An Ruhai were mixed with a few privately bought exam questions, which received the benefits of An Jia, this time he was already deliberately trying to discredit Shen Zhuo, Jiang Cheng interrogated them overnight, questioning their incoherent testimony, contradictory words, suspecting that there were uneasy and well-intentioned gangsters in it, and decisively put all the witnesses sent by An Jia into prison, and then make a final conclusion when the truth of the case is revealed.

An Ruhai was so angry that he jumped like thunder, but there was nothing he could do, once Emperor Jingwen came to retreat, Concubine An couldn't face the saint, and she couldn't find anyone if she wanted to sue. Second, in the cabinet, Jiang Zhongming is the first assistant, and he is the second assistant, even if An Ruhai jointly wrote the letter, Jiang Zhongming did not take it seriously. Third, if the person who testifies wants to overturn the previous testimony and re-testify Shen Clumsy, even if the so-called evidence is presented, it will be greatly discounted.

Prime Minister Jiang retried the case, found out the suspects involved in the case, tortured them severely, and forced them to ask them about the crime.

This time the heavy punishment was used, and it was difficult to ensure that there were some unbearable ones in it, so someone recruited them, not wanting to involve Guozijian behind this fraudulent case, Jiang Chengxiang's case was still tried, and news came that Guozijian committed suicide at home.

As soon as the news of Guozi's suicide came out, the case became more and more confusing, some people said that he committed suicide in fear of crime, and some people said that he was forced to die by Prime Minister Jiang.

Prime Minister Jiang Cheng was vigorous and resolute in the trial, and in just a few days, the case was reversed, and the An family was caught off guard, and he was unwilling, and listed dozens of charges against Prime Minister Jiang Cheng, and when Emperor Jingwen came out of the customs, he was going to sue him.

As the case became clearer and clearer, the involvement became bigger and bigger, Prime Minister Jiang Cheng quickly cut through the mess, and all kinds of hidden secrets could not be said in a few words, but for Gu Sanniang, it was a great news, Shen Zhuo was coming back!
