A beautiful woman walked up to the bed and said, "You are awake, your master and I are about to die of worry." Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
Cheng Linghui took a closer look before she recognized that this beautiful woman turned out to be a teacher. She shouted, "Master." "My eyes couldn't help but feel sour.
Shi Niang sighed: "You kid, you are still so reckless. Don't you know to come to me and your master? You don't want to think about it, Jiwen is your senior brother and your master's protΓ©gΓ©. Why would your master watch him have an accident? β
Cheng Linghui said: "Aren't I in a hurry? β
It turned out that Cheng Linghui fainted and died in the Jinluan Palace. Su Tong was originally going to take her back to the palace. But how could Marquis Su let him do such an uncontrollable thing? Forced him away. Cheng Linghui was brought back by the mountain chief Lin Bonian.
Her old wounds were just right, and new ones were added. He was in a coma for four days and three nights. Chang Jiwen's case was sent to Dali Temple for retrial when she was unconscious. It's just that the governor of the state capital, together with the official who impeached Chang Jiwen, all have a background. Chang Jiwen took the gong to try this case, but he couldn't do it.
The first Mid-Autumn Festival after the couple got married, one was spent in a prison cell, and the other was spent in a hospital bed. When Cheng Linghui recovered from his injuries, Chang Jiwen was also released from prison. It's just that the errand of inspecting the imperial history is gone, and I can't go back to my hometown. can only stay in Beijing to wait for vacancies.
When the husband and wife saw each other again, they couldn't help but cry. Lin Bonian knew that the two had become married. A small mansion was given to them as a belated gift.
The five-rank official is really nothing in the capital. Chang Jiwen also thought that he had offended the powerful this time, and he didn't know how long he would have to wait. In less than a month, I received the news of the recovery. After inquiring again, it turned out to be a vacancy recommended by the head of the household.
Chang Jiwen used to be an inspector of imperial history, that is, an official who picked on the faults of officials in various places. He has a pure temperament and does not know how to tactfully accidents. His colleagues were very distant from him. And the head of the household is even more than eighteen poles can't hit. There are so many officials waiting for a shortage in Beijing, why do you just recommend Chang Jiwen, who has never met a few times?
Not to mention Chang Jiwen, even Lin Bonian, the mountain chief who was born in a famous family and has been walking in officialdom for a long time, is a mess.
In any case, if the court recovers you, you have to hurry up and take office. Chang Jiwen changed his body, from a five-grade inspector to a four-grade Hubu Langzhong. This can be considered a blessing in disguise. The household department is a relatively idle place in the six departments, which is more suitable for Chang Jiwen's temperament than patrolling the imperial history.
Cheng Linghui also relieved herself and prepared to go home. She hasn't had time to talk to Chang Jiwen yet. There was an uninvited guest at home.
This guest is said to be a concubine of the Tobe Shoshu. This concubine is not ordinary, her father is a seven-grade county order. In Shaxi County, that is one of the best daughters. In Beijing, he can only be a little wife.
This aunt is here to persuade Cheng Linghui to leave Chang Jiwen. Cheng Linghui was furious when she heard this. There is only persuasion and peace in the world, and there is no reason to persuade people to leave.
The aunt and grandmother unhurriedly told Cheng Linghui why Chang Jiwen was able to suddenly recover, and he was also promoted. It turned out to be a lady who had taken a fancy to him. Even in the trial of this case, that person also secretly made a lot of efforts. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the Lin family to get Chang Jiwen out of prison. The implication is that if people can get you out and let you get promoted, they can put you down again, let you go to prison, or even lose your head.
That aunt and grandmother had been gone for a long time, and Cheng Linghui couldn't come back to her senses. She only felt fear in her heart that she had never felt before. This is officialdom, it is clearly a tiger's den in Longtan.
Chang Jiwen came back and saw her unruly appearance. After asking for a long time, Cheng Linghui didn't know how to speak. She looked at Chang Jiwen silently, and suddenly missed her mother, grandmother, father, and even Erniang very much.
"Jiwen, let's go home." Cheng Linghui has never called Chang Jiwen's name so seriously.
"Why?" Chang Jiwen can now be said to have a smooth official career, a harmonious family, and it is the time for the spring breeze to be proud. How did he know the sorrow in Cheng Linghui's heart.
Cheng Linghui lowered her head: "No why, I just want you to go home with me." Let's live a good life together as a family. β
Chang Jiwen hugged her and said with a smile: "What stupid thing to say?" A good boy has ambitions in all directions, didn't you like to run around when you were a child? He also lied to me for years pretending to be a brat. I get angry when I think about it. β
Cheng Linghui caught his dishonest hand: "If you were asked to choose between being an official and me, what would you choose?" β
Chang Jiwen said: "I won't let go of either." Before the words fell, he had already leaned over and grabbed Cheng Linghui's lips......
Cheng Linghui was lying in Chang Jiwen's arms, looking at the shadows of the trees outside the window and couldn't sleep. Chang Jiwen gently bit her earlobe: "Don't think nonsense, go to sleep." β
Cheng Linghui turned around and faced him: "If I disappear, will you forget me?" β
Chang Jiwen said: "I'm not worried, even if you become a bird, you have to fly back to me to perch on this tree." Who told you to have a daughter and marry me? He gently kissed Cheng Linghui's forehead and sighed: "You are a daughter, it's so good." β
Cheng Linghui stopped talking.
When Chang Jiwen fell asleep, she got up and lit a candle and spread out a piece of cut rice paper. When I lifted the pen, tears flowed down. She wiped the tears from her face and waved her pen vigorously. wrote a letter of resignation in the tone of Chang Jiwen.
She can see that Chang Jiwen likes to be an official. So why should I not fulfill him? Think of Chang Erye and Chang Er's grandmother. The daughters of a farmer like them are not worthy of a big family like the Chang family. Rather than ending up in the situation of Chang Er's grandmother, it is better to leave as soon as possible. How much dignity can be left, count as much.
Pulling Chang Jiwen's hand in his sleep, he pressed the handprint. Cheng Linghui glanced at her husband again. turned around and walked away without looking back.
She led her horse and waited at the gate until dawn. As soon as the gates opened, the first to go out of the city. As when I came, I rode alone. The mood is completely different. The further I went, the more uncomfortable I felt. I simply found a secluded place to cry.
"What are you crying about here?" The familiar local accent made Cheng Linghui cry. Raising his teary eyes, he saw a tall figure.
The man hugged her all of a sudden and cheered, "Second brother, I didn't expect to see you here." What's wrong, you're not an official anymore? "It turned out to be He Kun.
Hearing the word 'official', Cheng Linghui couldn't control her tears.
"What the hell is going on?" He Kun clumsily wiped her tears with his sleeve.
"Is your father dead, or is your mother dead?" The vicious words and Wu Moming's stinky face make people feel the urge to punch him. But Cheng Linghui doesn't want to do anything but cry now.
"Fourth brother, you just say a few words." He Kun looked at Wu Moming. The one standing next to Wu Moming was Li Dali.
Cheng Linghui cried enough, and she was tired of crying, so she remembered that these three people were not arrested? How to stand here well. Looking at the clothes of the three people, life is not bad.
Wu Moming sneered coldly, and did not hide his contempt for Cheng Linghui at all: "You are too naΓ―ve." "Both of his wrists were boarded and bandaged. It looks like the injury hasn't healed yet.
He Kun is a fool, and he poured beans into the bamboo tube of the three of them, and told them all in one go.
This Wu Moming turned out to be a child of a family. I don't know what kind of wind he smoked to become a bandit. This time he was caught by the Kaizhou Mansion, and the Kaizhou Mansion Yin recognized him at a glance. How dare Fu Yin offend him, and sent him to the capital overnight.
At home, he saw that his hands and bones were broken, and he was almost crippled. Take that Fu Yin and fight. Nafu Yin finally got out. Wu Moming insisted that he let He Kun and Li Dali go. Both of them are gangsters with bloody crimes. But Nafu Yin had no choice but to release him.
As for Chang Jiwen's impersonation case, in fact, it was the Kaizhou Mansion Yin and the Kaizhou soldiers and horses who wanted to steal the merit. Relying on the support of Wu Moming's family, he unscrupulously falsely accused Chang Jiwen. Of course, there is also the meaning of Wu Moming's family taking the opportunity to want Chang Jiwen's life and avenge Wu Moming. Because Wu Moming always thought that it was Chang Jiwen who wasted his hands.
In the end, this matter was over, Chang Jiwen was able to come out with all his beards and tails, and it was really thanks to the Lu family who killed him halfway.
