After the fleet entered the border of Jiangsu, it soon arrived at Xuzhou Prefecture. At this time, the family members who had been sent to Pingdu Prefecture also returned.

There were two people who were sent out, one was the old man when the old county prince was there, and the other was Chen Dongsheng, the little servant next to Zhao Wei, the son of Sister-in-law Pearl. The former has been on an errand in Jiannanhou Mansion for many years, and has dealt with Uncle Mi Laotai Mi, and Chen Dongsheng is Zhao Wei's confidant. He was originally the son of the Zhao family, and was greatly favored by Zhao Wei and Zhao Xiu's brothers and sisters, and was loyal to them. With him with him, Zhao Wei was not worried at all that his orders would be discounted when they were executed.

When they arrived in Pingdu Prefecture, they first inquired about the rumors of Uncle Mi, and sure enough, as the aunt's wife Zhao Yuanniang said in the letter, the reputation was very bad. He is not only greedy, but also pretends to be a clean official, and he is not very polite to the local gentry. Because he proclaimed everywhere that he was the uncle of the Marquis of Jiannan, others were afraid of going to the Marquis of Jiannan's mansion, so they could only swallow their anger, but they secretly complained a lot. The two families who suffered his big loss, who had relatives and friends in the local area and other parts of Shandong, hurriedly transferred the two families, but they could not get rid of the crime. This is the end of a great feud. The big families often contact each other and get married, even if it is for their own bloodline, they can't tolerate Uncle Mi to continue messing around, so they secretly send a message to Jinan, hoping that the governor of Shandong will teach him a lesson.

Chen Dongsheng and the others were secretly glad that they came in time, so they played the banner of Jiannanhou Mansion and came to the Zhizhou Yamen to call the door, so that passers-by knew their identities. When Uncle Mi's housekeeper came out, the older family members said loudly: "Oh, I haven't seen you for many years, uncle, is your old man still well?" Since that year, our second master and second wife have been gone, and it has been more than ten years, and my uncle has not heard from him until last year. But the uncle didn't say clearly in the letter where he was an official, until a few days ago, our Hou Ye followed the king of Guangping to the south to do business, passing through Shandong, and heard the uncle mention that the uncle was here to be the governor, so he ordered us to take a look. Now I finally know where my uncle is. ”

The butler laughed dryly. Quickly glanced around, and hurriedly invited them in. But the passers-by had already heard the words of the Jiannan Hou Mansion family clearly, and they exchanged their heads with each other.

Didn't it mean that the eldest master of Zhizhou was the uncle of Jiannanhou, and the two families were very close? What kind of big man is an official in Pingdu. Jiannanhou didn't know before? I haven't been in contact for more than ten years, and this is still my uncle. Is there anything wrong with the words of the old man Zhizhou?

Rumors slowly spread in the streets, and when Uncle Mi learned that Chen Dongsheng and they were coming, his cheeks twitched first, and then he came out to see them with a strange face. Chen Dongsheng and others sent Zhao Wei's letter. In addition to the usual greetings, the letter was to persuade Uncle Mi to rein in, and also directly mentioned the unjust case, asking Uncle Mi not to wronged the innocent for the sake of small profits.

Uncle Mi's face became even more gloomy, and he didn't say anything when he pressed the letter, but only asked the older Hou family member when Zhao Wei set off for the south. When did he enter Shandong, where did he stop along the way, who he met, and who did he hear about? The family answered some questions, and some questions were not clear, Uncle Mi became more and more irritable, and said unceremoniously: "Local government affairs are handled by local officials, I am the governor of the state here, and I am in charge of this state affairs." The nephew was a marquis in Beijing, and went to Jiangnan with the king of Guangping to be a messenger. Just take care of your own errands, why bother reaching out and meddling in other people's affairs? Okay, I'm still his elder! He didn't say help me help me, but also deliberately used some selfish means to scare people. Is there an elder like me in your eyes?! He is not afraid that he will not be able to look at his mother under the nine springs, and come to find him in his dreams at night! ”

After that, he threw off his sleeves and drove away the guests, and the old family of the Hou Mansion in Jiannan was so angry that he said to Chen Dongsheng after leaving the yamen: "When Uncle Mi came to our Hou Mansion, even if it was a little guy who served tea and poured water, he had to stammer. Now that he is an official, he is proud. Without our Hou Mansion, he wouldn't know where he was! He was given an official and sent a ceremony, but the second master and the second wife were gone, and he didn't even say condolences. For more than ten years, his nephew lives in his hometown, and he has never come to see it once, nor has he ever written a letter. Now that he sees that the little marquis has won the title again, he has the face to put his uncle's money. He still blames our little marquis for not taking him seriously, if he wasn't afraid that he would cause trouble and affect the little marquis's innocent reputation, who would be willing to take care of him?! ”

Chen Dongsheng glanced at the nearby officials who were pricking up their ears and eavesdropping without a trace, and grabbed the family: "Uncle, don't worry, let's just go back and report to the little marquis." Since the uncle refused to listen to persuasion, the little marquis could only act impartially. It's not that the little marquis doesn't miss family affection, it's really that the national law is greater than the sky, and the little marquis is loyal to the emperor and the court, and refuses to forget the public for personal reasons. ”

The two servants turned over and got on their horses again and quickly left Pingdu Prefecture. But the rumor that Uncle Mi's Nahou Mansion backer was not as reliable as he preached, it spread quickly. The local family suddenly felt a lot more settled, and their eyes looked at Mi Zhizhou with a little bit of unkindness, and two points less jealous.

Uncle Mi still didn't know it, and he still counted Zhao Wei in front of his mother: "A few nights ago, someone in the child's study sent a letter every day, asking the child to be more restrained in his work, and to correct the mistakes he made before, otherwise it will be a big trouble in the future, and the child's official position will not be guaranteed." The child thought to himself, the case was decided by the child himself, if it is changed, where is the child's face? Therefore, it must not be changed! The letter must have been secretly placed in the study by the two families, and when the children found their inner response, they would be beaten severely! I never thought that when my nephew's messenger arrived today, the child looked at his letter, and it was almost the same tone as the letter that appeared in the study. Isn't this the devil's doing? If he thinks that the child is causing him trouble, he can say clearly, what is he doing in such a sneaky way? So the child could not agree to him. If he responds, he really won't take his grandmother and uncle seriously! ”

Mrs. Mi naturally had the most important son in her heart, and replied in a loud voice: "You are right, those two little animals were born to your dead ghost sister, what kind of good goods can they be?" God is gracious and asked Zhao Wei to be the Hou Ye, since he inherited the blood and blood of our Mi family, he should contribute to the Mi family. You just have to ask him to find a high-ranking official for you, and as for anything else, you must not indulge them. The child should be taught well, and if he is indulged, he will only not learn well. His parents are gone, and his grandmother is soft-eared, and we are grandmothers and uncles. Naturally, you should discipline him more, this is really a good thing for him. ”

Mrs. Mi and Uncle Mi were still dreaming of themselves, and Chen Dongsheng and the two had already rushed to Jinan to see Mrs. Zhao Yuanniang. Before they set off from the fleet. Zhao Wei gave them a letter in advance, and if Uncle Mi refused to listen to the persuasion to correct it, he asked them to send the letter to Zhao Yuanniang. Zhao Wei, as the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission, passed through Shandong, but he was not qualified to interfere in Shandong's government affairs and personnel. Even if he wants to kill his relatives again. It can only be done with a fake hand. The one he chose was his aunt's house. The Xu family was an official in Shandong, and he was very popular in the province, and he could often meet with high-ranking officials such as governors, political envoys, and envoys, so it was most suitable for him to pass on this message.

Since Uncle Mi relied on the power of the Jiannan Hou Mansion to be powerful in Pingdu Prefecture, if his boss knew that the Jiannan Hou Mansion would not support him, would he take action?

Unexpectedly, after reading Zhao Wei's letter, Zhao Yuanniang had a different opinion. She said to her husband Xu Chonglun: "Inseparable. Today, Brother Wei will be indignant for a while, and ask you to teach his uncle a lesson. If his uncle is really down, he will be ruined in the future. He even lost his life because of this sin, and he knew that he couldn't bear it in his heart, and maybe he would come to blame us again. I am called aunt and nephew with them, and in fact, there is a layer of separation, where can I compare to Mi Zhizhou is their maternal uncle? In my opinion, we don't have to make too much effort in this matter, and we can teach Nami Zhizhou a little lesson, but we have rehabilitated the unjust case, so that the family in Shandong will be grateful to you. ”

Xu Chonglun disagreed: "Mi Zhizhou misbehaved, and Jiannanhou was willing to kill his relatives with righteousness." It was a righteous act. He just did our Xu family a great favor, and Peizhao will try next year, and more than half of it is due to him. Now he just asks us to do some small things and make a few words. You push back and block, not only is it unreasonable, but it also chills the hearts of your relatives. When a gentleman is alive, he must do what he should do, and he should not always look forward and backward and cower. If you hesitate in everything. Where do things come from? ”

Zhao Yuanniang said angrily: "I persuaded you for your own good, Zhao Wei just gave your father and son a notebook, and you praised him, forgetting that he was not my own nephew." He's just a little weak, and he's just trying to win you over. You're good enough to quarrel with me for him! ”

Xu Chonglun said helplessly: "Madame's words are not right. Where is he not your own nephew? Although his father and wife were not born to the same mother, they are of the same father's blood. He's your own nephew. ”

Zhao Yuanniang snorted coldly: "I have never had a brother, and I admit the rest of my life." In short, you must rely on me in this matter, otherwise you will sleep in my study from now on! With that, he threw up his sleeves and left.

Xu Chonglun had a headache, but the old husband and wife had been in love for many years, and he couldn't be too tough on his wife, so he could only find Mu to discuss how to deal with it. But one thing is certain, and that is that we must no longer turn a blind eye. Uncle Mi's actions may implicate the Zhao family at any time, and the Zhao family is the maiden family of the Xu family's housemother.

When Chen Dongsheng and the others returned from Jinan, the governor of Shandong had already "heard" about the unjust case in Pingdu Prefecture and ordered Mi Zhizhou to go to Jinan Mansion to explain. Zhao Wei and Zhao Xiu were relieved when they got the news. After several days of deliberate dissemination, many officials in Shandong Province already knew the news that Jiannanhou and his uncle's family were not on good terms. Thinking about the sin created by Uncle Mi, it should not be implicated in Zhao Wei.

The brother and sister were in a better mood, and since then they have been heading south, the river has widened, the water has flowed smoothly, and the snow has decreased. The fleet had a smooth journey, and soon passed through Xuzhou, Huaiyin, Huai'an and other places, and was about to arrive in Yangzhou. And the news that Uncle Mi was reprimanded by the governor of Shandong also came back. He was not found to be deliberately framed, but he was charged with poor supervision, and this year's evaluation was lowered, and if he wants to go up, he can't, and he may be fired at any time.

He seemed to finally realize that his nephew didn't intend to protect him, and since then he has restrained a lot. I heard that I'm busy looking around right now, begging one to stay and look at it. Some of the money that was originally looted was also quietly returned. The children of the two families who were rehabilitated returned to Pingdu Prefecture, and he also sent his son to the door to "welcome", and by the way sent a wedding gift, without mentioning reparation, nor saying anything else, but also to tell people to "keep to themselves in the future and avoid further incidents". His son's face was flushed, and he ran away in the face of everyone's hateful and hostile gaze. (To be continued.) )

PS: It can't go on like this, I must adjust my schedule......
