Jiang Zhongming has been immersed in officialdom for many years, experienced countless winds and waves, he has a tough wrist, and has developed a temperament that is invisible, this time in order to save his son, Jiang Zhongming disregarded his own reputation, and the three princes and nine kings in the court also committed a lot of crimes, not only the An faction took the opportunity to impeach, but even the Jiang faction was secretly dissatisfied.

The case of fraud in the imperial examination has reached this point, and there is no need for Jiang Zhongming to take action in person, and as the case is cocooned, many old cases have also been dug out. Jiang Zhongming's drastic style will inevitably make those who have ghosts in their hearts panic, An Ruhai saw this situation, and couldn't help but be very proud, if Jiang Zhongming offended all the powerful people in the court, it would only be the An family who would reap the benefits of the fishermen in the end.

But he didn't want to, just when he was waiting for the changes, Jiang Zhongming gave up.

All kinds of evidence are pointing out that the mastermind of the fraud is the Guozi Jian Jiu Li Ya, he used his power to collude with profiteers, sold the imperial examination questions with a lot of money, and tried to disrupt the court, if he did not commit suicide in fear of the crime, he must be sentenced to a felony of stealing his house and cutting off his head.

Once the case was reviewed, the government and the opposition were in an uproar, and everyone had an abacus in their hearts, Li Ya was the mastermind, and the case did not have to be investigated, An Ruhai regretted that Jiang Zhongming, the old fox, did not offend the powerful people in Beijing, and the pigtails of those powerful people were caught in Jiang Zhongming's hands, and when facing Jiang An, he inevitably had to re-examine it, and it was only at this time that those henchmen in the Jiang family came back to their senses and couldn't help but admire Jiang Zhongming's long-term vision.

These winds and rains outside, Gu Sanniang didn't know, she knew that Shen Zhuo was safe and sound, she looked forward to his return every day, on this day, she was doing work in the house, Jiang Jinyan sent someone over in the yard, saying that she wanted to invite her over, Gu Sanniang was secretly suspicious, a few days ago, the Sun family would come to talk to her every day, and now that she thinks about it, she hasn't seen her for several days, thinking about it, Gu Sanniang asked: "What did you Jin Sanye say?" ”

It was a daughter-in-law who came to pass the word, she shook her head and said, "The third master didn't say it, the third master also invited Princess Jichang over." ”

Seeing this, Gu Sanniang nodded, and went to the courtyard where Jiang Jinyan lived with Caiyun.

When she entered Jiang Jinyan's courtyard, Gu Sanniang saw Princess Jichang and the Sun family sitting silently next to her, while Jiang Jinyan was pacing back and forth in the house, looking anxious.

The maids and mothers-in-law in the house were all guarding outside, and there were only a few of them in the house, Gu Sanniang asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Jiang Jinyan stopped, he looked at Gu Sanniang and said, "Sister-in-law, my father has not come back for several days since he entered the palace to face the saint. ”

Gu Sanniang was confused, according to her, Jiang Zhongming is the prime minister, isn't it a common thing to face the saint, besides, he is often not at home, isn't it the first time they know about it?

Gu Sanniang listened to the clouds, but the Sun family is the daughter of the official eunuch, she has been exposed to it since she was a child, and she knows more than Gu Sanniang and Princess Jichang, she said: "Sister-in-law, a few days ago, the An family impeached the master, and the master burned the An family's folds clean, and now the master is going to bear the guilt, but the saint is in retreat and cultivating, he doesn't see the master, and the master has been waiting in front of the emperor's palace for three days." ”

Jiang Jinyan told her these words, and Jiang Jinyan said to them: "A few days ago, when Dali Temple was executed, he killed a man, so there were rumors that my father was beaten into a trick and regarded human life as a child's play. ”

In fact, there are countless unjust souls who died in Dali Temple, but this time there is an family behind it, plus Jiang Zhongming is the chief judge, and the criminal is his biological son, which naturally becomes more and more eye-catching.

Gu Sanniang listened to it for a long time, and she understood a little, she pondered for a moment, and said to Jiang Jinyan: "I'm afraid it's useless to come to us for this matter, have you ever asked the master's staff or other clansmen, they know more than us." ”

Jiang Jinyan replied: "I asked, the old man brought the letter of invitation to the palace, and he didn't even say anything about the Qingke under the door." ”

Moreover, since the case of fraud in the imperial examination was born, Jiang Zhongming detained Jiang Jinyan at home, not only stopped studying, but also did not allow the sons of the family who had made friends before to meet, otherwise Jiang Jinyan could still ask them for news.

These few people in the house, Princess Jichang usually doesn't interact with others, Jiang Jinyan and the Sun family are all childish, it is Gu Sanniang herself, a woman from the countryside, and she doesn't understand anything, this Jiang Zhongming didn't explain when he left, and now they are left with six gods and no master, and everyone doesn't know what to do.

After being silent for a long time, Gu Sanniang glanced around, and she said: "In my humble opinion, since the master is doing this, there must be a reason for him, let's not mess around, just wait for the news." ”

Princess Jichang, who had not spoken, spoke: "Sister-in-law is reasonable, we have stayed in the mansion honestly these days, don't make trouble for the master." ”

Sun glanced at Jiang Jinyan with a blank look, and she asked, "Then do you want to tell your mother-in-law about this?" ”

Princess Jichang glared at her, and she said, "You are confused, her old man is already in poor health, why bother to make her frightened again." ”

The two of them are relatives and concubines, Gu Sanniang is inconvenient to interject, so she lowered her head and pretended not to hear, the Sun family nodded submissively, thinking of the dilemma at home, there was no smile on the carefree face in the past.

Gu Sanniang sat with her for a long time, and she didn't have a clue about each other, Gu Sanniang thought of Shen Zhuo, she hesitated for a moment, and said to Jiang Jinyan: "Your eldest brother will be able to come back in the next two days, maybe you can find him to get an idea." ”

Jiang Jinyan counted the days, stroked his palms and said: "Where do you need to spend two days, tomorrow is the day when the case is closed in Dali Temple." ”

Gu Sanniang was overjoyed, Jiang Zhongming only told her that Shen Zhuo was going to come home soon, but he didn't tell her what day it was, when she heard that he was going to come home, she was overjoyed, she was thinking about picking up Shen Zhuo, so she said to Jiang Jinyan: "I will take the two children to pick him up tomorrow." ”

Jiang Jinyan said to her: "There is a man like me at home, where do you need my sister-in-law to pick up my eldest brother, you just wait at home." ”

Gu Sanniang thought that the Jiang family was in an eventful time, so in order to avoid more complications, she had to nod and agree.

The next day, Gu Sanniang changed into clean clothes, and dressed the two children neatly, the house was cleaned the day before, Xiao Yezi took Brother Yu to pick a lot of flowers in the garden early in the morning, and there was a sense of joy inside and outside the east courtyard.

After doing this, Gu Sanniang is still not enough, the customs of their hometown, when they encounter bad luck, they have to eat pig's feet noodles to get lucky, but this is not their own home, she can't be the master, besides, I heard that the rules of big families are strict, Gu Sanniang hesitated to tell Liu Wupo about her thoughts, Liu Wupo smiled: "What is this worth, grandma wants to make a bowl of pig's feet noodles for the uncle herself, who dares to stop it?" Don't worry, I'll go with you to the kitchen. ”

Gu Sanniang breathed a sigh of relief, she told Xiao Yezi and Yu Ge'er to stay in the house, so she came to the kitchen with Liu Wupo, the mother-in-law who was on an errand in the kitchen had already received a message, the shaved pig's feet and ingredients were ready, and there were two other mothers-in-law standing aside to give her a hand.

Gu Sanniang is familiar with the work in the kitchen, she cooked the pig's feet neatly, and in less than half a day, a large bowl of pig's feet noodles was cooked, she and Liu Wupo just walked halfway with the food box, and saw Caiyun panting and running over, and said, "Grandma, uncle is back." ”

Gu Sanniang exclaimed: "Why is it so fast, doesn't it mean that it will take half a day to get home." ”

Thinking of that person, the steps under her feet couldn't help but speed up a little, Caiyun hugged Liu Wupo and fell behind half a section, only saying that Gu Sanniang had just stepped into the east courtyard, and saw Shen Zhuo at a glance, he was holding Brother Yu in his arms, and was looking down to talk to Xiao Yezi beside him, when he heard the movement, Shen Zhuo turned his head and looked towards the door.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then Gu Sanniang's tears flowed down.

Shen Zhuo put down his brother, he walked over and held Gu Sanniang's hand, and looked directly into her eyes, as if he wanted to engrave her every move in his heart.

At this moment, it seems that it is a little redundant to say anything, the two looked at each other, and even their eyes were reluctant to blink, Xiao Yezi understood some personnel a little, she saw her father and mother holding hands, and forgot that there were others in the house, and her face couldn't help but turn red, so she hurriedly covered her eyes and turned her back.

The family of four finally reunited after going through danger, Gu Sanniang brought the pig's foot noodles to the table, she looked at Shen Zhuo, who had lost a lot of weight, and said: "Eat this bowl of noodles quickly, there is not a drop of soup left, and you will be safe and secure for the rest of your life, and you will have no worries." ”

When she said these words, her hand gently covered her chest, in the past six months, since Shen Zhuo went to Beijing, she had never slept a peaceful night, and today she saw him sitting in front of her unharmed, her hanging heart could finally fall back into her stomach completely.

Brother Yu was lying on the table opposite, his father came back, and the child became cheerful and lively again, he blinked his eyes and asked, "Are pig's feet delicious?" ”

"You taste it." Shen Zhuo smiled and gave a pig's foot to Brother Yu'er, and gave Xiao Yezi a piece, the pig's foot was stewed soft, it was rare to eat this thing on weekdays, the two children held the pig's foot and gnawed their mouths full of oil, Gu Sanniang looked at Shen Zhuo and the children quietly, and only felt extremely relieved.

Shen Zhuo ate a bowl of pork knuckle noodles cleanly, he glanced at the two children playing not far away, turned his head to Gu Sanniang and said, "You go and clean up, we will leave Jiang's Mansion immediately." ”
