Chapter 367: Yun Lang is dead
An Laoshi fell ill, and the news that Mrs. An took her son away to Jiangnan came from Chang'an City, I don't know how many people secretly laughed at An Laoshi for not succeeding, for a girl who was not planted by himself, he actually forced his wife and son away, and waited for the future to suffer.
In this way, even if Emperor Jianyuan issued an order to truly canonize Zhenniang as the lord of Shouyang, he did not save Zhenniang's reputation.
Emperor Jianyuan said more than once in the court that Emperor Taishang valued the county lord of Shouyang, always worried about her, for the county lord of Shouyang did not hesitate to go against Emperor Jianyuan, Emperor Jianyuan persuaded a few times, Emperor Taishang still wanted to beat Emperor Jianyuan, Emperor Jianyuan had no choice, he could only be tossed by Emperor Taishang.
After two or three times, the ministers of the court and the central government all knew that the Taishang favored the Shouyang County Lord, and the favored Shouyang County Lord was not human, and the reputation of the Emperor Taishang and the Shouyang County Lord was gone.
Zhenniang has no reputation, and the Cao family is also ridiculed by many families, Cao Xiu has a dark face and circles with the clansmen every day, and he has to make a happy appearance outside, so as not to make Emperor Jianyuan annoy the Cao family.
In this way, the Cao family did not have a good impression of Zhenniang, especially Cao Xiu's father and daughter, who were even more annoyed by Zhenniang.
In this atmosphere, the Cao family and the An family passed six ceremonies, and An honestly dragged his sick body to ask an aunt of the same clan to help prepare a dowry for An Zhenniang, and then helped to discuss the time with the Cao family, prepare a banquet, entertain guests, and so on.
Because Emperor Jianyuan used the excuse that the emperor was unwell and wanted to see Zhenniang get married as soon as possible, therefore, Cao An's two families did a special marriage, and it didn't take much time to get to the day of Cao Xiu and An Zhenniang's wedding.
Qi Jinggui is the prime minister, and he has the title of the marquis, Yun Yao is the lady of Chaoyipin, so the Cao family naturally sent an invitation to Yun Yao on such a happy day.
Yun Yao didn't want to go, but when she thought about it, An Zhenniang was also unconscious, it is said that the two girls of Cao Xiu's family are also powerful people, and they don't know what will happen to the two families today.
Regardless of whether Cao Xiule is happy or not, An Zhenniang's identity is there, the Cao family has to do the family affairs lively, on this day, the Cao family has been renovated, and the people under the people are all beaming with joy, and the Cao clan is also smiling outside to welcome the guests.
At a glance, it really looks like a happy event.
But if you look closely, everyone is smiling on the surface, and the joy does not reach the bottom of the eyes, but they are just making a show for others to see.
Yun Yao stood at the door of Cao's house and looked at it twice, and walked towards a woman in a purple brocade dress with a smiling face: "Mrs. Cao." ”
This woman is the oldest woman of Cao Xiu's generation in the branch next to the Cao family, Cao Xiu wants to call her a sister-in-law, because the Cao family does not have a serious person to greet guests today, this sister-in-law of the Cao family is not bad, and she is also very thoughtful, so Cao Xiu asked her to help.
Sister-in-law Cao saw Yun Yao coming, and stepped forward with a smile and took Yun Yao's hand: "You are here, this is really a noble person, and it has added a little blessing to our family." ”
Yun Yao smiled: "You're polite, you have a happy event at home, I should come and sit no matter what." ”
"It's good to come, it's good to come." Sister-in-law Cao smiled all over her face: "Hurry up and please, it's cold outside, and your clothes are not thick, go to the house to warm up early, drink a few cups of hot tea, and save the cold." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, a little girl came over and led Yun Yao into the inner house.
Yun Yao looked at it while walking, and saw that the Cao family was really worthy of the high gate of the two queens, and the old mansion alone occupied half a street.
The inner house at the back is more elaborate, one courtyard after another, the long corridors are connected, and many houses are crowded next to each other, showing extremely magnificence.
The Cao family's house is well repaired, but Yun Yao doesn't like it, thinking that the artificial traces of this house are too heavy, and it is much more cheesy, but it is not as natural as the Qi family's house.
After walking for a while, Yun Yao was led into a courtyard, which was very open, facing five main houses next to the main room with ears, and there were hugging houses behind them, and there were three wings on the left and right, and many girls came out of the wings, and these girls either brought tea or fruits to the main room.
Yun Yao stepped up the steps, and the girl made a thick blue woven cotton curtain, as soon as the curtain was raised, there was a warm breeze, Yun Yao walked into the house with her skirt, and when she entered the house, she felt a burst of heat on her body, and after a while, sweat broke out on her forehead.
She turned the carved screen, and saw that the main room was three rooms and one open, and it was very spacious, and there were four chairs against the north wall, and there were several chairs next to them, and there were already several young ladies and grandmothers sitting there.
When these people saw Yun Yao coming in, they all stood up, and Yun Yao took off his big smile and said, "It's so neat to come." ”
"You're late today." It was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Kong Shangshu family, Tang, who was also familiar with Yun Yao, and she had always been good, but when she saw Yun Yao coming, she quickly dragged Yun Yao to her side, and after the two sat down, Tang whispered: "I thought you wouldn't come." ”
Yun Yao hooked her lips and smiled: "I didn't plan to come, but I thought about how I couldn't come if there was a lot of excitement in vain." ”
Tang Shi also smiled: "But isn't it, I also want to come over and see the excitement, anyway, it's boring at home on a cold day, and I can't go outside to be stubborn, it's rare to have a chance to see a good show, I really missed this time, maybe how many years will it take to meet it." ”
Yun Yao nodded: "Let's have a good life." ”
Tang smiled and pouted: "This Cao family is really brainless, and His Majesty also wants to take care of the affairs of his harem, when they are what, there have been two queens in the family, and they don't know how thick the sky is, according to me, His Majesty deserves to give his family a face." ”
"I'm afraid that even so, his family won't stop, this thief's heart can't die." Yun Yao smiled sarcastically: "However, this Princess Shouyang is not a fuel-efficient lamp, with her tossing, it is enough for the Cao family to suffer." ”
Tang Shi came closer: "I saw the two little ladies of the Cao family just now, the one is called Bi Ning, this little girl is better, at least she has a smile, but her sister Zi Ning pulled a face, as if someone owed her a few hundred taels of silver and didn't pay it back, it seems that this little girl is looking for trouble today." ”
Yun Yao stretched out her hand and grabbed a handful of dried fruits on the high table on the side to eat: "Let's make trouble, let's watch more excitement if it gets bigger." ”
Tang also grabbed a handful of almonds and ate a few, then glanced at Yun Yao, hesitated for a while before whispering: "I heard something from our family, I happened to see you today, so I will tell you, you ...... Don't think about it. ”
"What's the matter?" Yun Yao was shocked, and for some reason, she felt uncomfortable in her heart, so that she couldn't even eat Su Ri's favorite dried fruit.
Tang's face was also serious: "There was an incident in a big gambling shop in Jinzhou before, a young junior lost money gambling and argued with someone, called the gambling house to give it, and beat him to death, I heard that the latter was beaten and couldn't stand it, and kept shouting that he was Qi Xiang's brother-in-law, and asked someone to let him go, he took someone to Qi's house, and Qi Xiang must pay him back." ”
"Oh?" Yun Yao's heart tightened, and she had a very ominous premonition.
"The head of the gambling house only didn't believe it, and said with a smile that if this later life is Qi Xiang's brother-in-law, then he is still Qi Xiang's own uncle, and he was stunned to watch people beat people to death." Tang sighed and finished speaking, and looked at Yun Yao carefully after saying that.
Yun Yao grabbed the placket of her clothes, but she felt that she couldn't let go of this heart: "What about the back, can it be verified, who is it?" ”
Tang sighed again: "Later, the local officials checked, and the surname of the descendant was Yun Minglang, it should be, it is indeed your brother." ”
Yun Yao collapsed on the chair as soon as she heard this, there was an indescribable pain in her heart, she was shocked, tried to suppress the feeling of heartache, and slowly faded away, and after a while, this feeling slowly dissipated.
Yun Yao understood that the distressing feeling should have been left by the original owner, and it was the natural reaction of this body.
In the final analysis, no matter what happens to the Yun family, they are all the relatives of the original owner, no matter how bad Yun Lang is, he is also the brother of the original owner, perhaps, when they were young, the two also played together, laughed and cried together, there is a bit of true friendship between sisters and brothers, Yun Lang is gone, this body is naturally extremely sad.
It's just that in the end, the soul of the original owner has already dissipated, and there is not much sadness, and now that it is consumed, even if he hears the news of the Yun family in the future, it will not be good.
"Are you alright?" Tang was also very worried when he saw Yun Yao leaning back in the chair for a long time and not speaking, so he asked cautiously.
Yun Yao came back to his senses and smiled at the Tang family: "It's okay, in the end, I don't have much friendship with my brother, it stands to reason that according to the sins committed by Yun Lang, even Ling Chi is enough, but no matter what, it is also my brother, I can't watch him die, I can only ask Your Majesty, and exchange the credit of the earlier siege for his life, I have done my best to him, he ...... How not to **** things. ”
Tang's expression was solemn: "That's what I said, it's not easy for you to be such a brother, it stands to reason that Your Majesty exempted him from the death penalty, and didn't want to lock him up for the rest of his life, generously let him go, according to his talent and knowledge, he went to the countryside to teach and teach, and he was also able to live a good life, but he learned to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, and as a result, he gambled his life. ”
As the two were talking, they heard the sound of firecrackers outside, and Tang smiled: "The new daughter-in-law has married into the house." (To be continued.) )
