454 Forced Liang to be a concubine
The children's test is in the county of the state, and the township test is in the province. After the children's test, it is called Xiucai, and after the township test, it is called the master of lifting. If you win in the examination, the second list is called Jinshi, and the third list is the same Jinshi. If these two can't be tried, the Yu family can't help if they want to. After the two tests, there will be an Imperial City test. If she can't read well, she will only give support to the side, or help to buy some fields, or give cloth and silver.
Yu was socializing for days and was quite tired.
Su Yan occasionally came out to help the Yu family resist for a while, but the Yu family knew that Su Yan didn't like these trivial things to welcome and send off guests, and most of the people who came to visit were women who had married and taught children, and it was not so much to let her sit with a young lady in the boudoir. Su Yan misses the days in the imperial city a little, and thinks more about Yu Wenyan, and I don't know how he is in the imperial city.
When he woke up at night, Yu reached out and hugged Jiang Shuncheng, and said in a low voice: "Yongzhai, let's go back to the imperial city." ”
Jiang Shuncheng let out a sigh, "Wait a little longer, the officials from the Criminal Department who took over the case will arrive in a few days, and the people from the Military Department who have come to pick up more than 100,000 soldiers will also arrive." ”
"People come every day, not to say how poor their own family is, or to mention how difficult their family is, and we are not immortals or bodhisattvas, how can we have such ability."
The Dongtang Jiang clan is far away, and it is also divided, and now they also want to come to get a piece of the pie, and want the Yu clan to help. The Yu family didn't dare to respond, but the Dongtang Jiang family came to several groups of people, quite "If you don't agree, I won't stop".
Jiang Shuncheng said: "As soon as the people from the Criminal Department and the Military Department arrive, the matter here will be completed. When the time comes, he will return to the imperial city with us. ”
Yu responded.
Xu has been away from Jinyang for too long, and she doesn't have too many feelings here, leaving behind not only the happiness in the boudoir, but also the hardships when she first married a wife. Thinking of the changes in the Yu family, the Yu family's heart was inexplicably heavy.
May 21. The officials of the Criminal Department and the Military Department arrived in the starry night.
Jiang Shukun handed over affairs with them in the Jinyang official office, and handed over the case of collusion between officials and businessmen in Jindi and the case of persecution of son-in-law by the concubine of the Jindi clan to Gu Lixing, the servant of the Criminal Department. This time, the military department and the criminal department each had their own envoys and were responsible for different matters.
Gu Lixing hugged his fists and said, "I really didn't expect it." King Jing made the good Jin land into a miasma. ”
Jiang Shukun replied: "I still have to work for Lord Gu to return to the land of Jin, and it is clear." ”
When Gu Lixing was in the imperial city, he had vaguely heard about the affairs of Jindi, and he didn't think that his son-in-law was talented. was suppressed several times by the concubine with the power of King Jing. The new emperor recalled that his biological father, Prince Qianming, was killed by his concubine and lost his life, and he was quite angry, and ordered Gu Lixing to thoroughly investigate the case, and he must return justice to the sons and daughters of the Jin family. The fame that was stripped during the time of King Jing was returned within a time limit, and a special reward order was issued, and Enke was given in the spring of Mingchun. There will also be a township examination this autumn, and if the persecuted Jindi concubines will do well in the examination, they will all be promoted to two more levels in the official positions they deserve.
This is undoubtedly a great gift for Jindi students!
Gu Lixing posted the Tui En Decree at the city gate, and almost all the students rejoiced. Especially Zeng Chi, Yu Jianbai and others, who have been suppressed for more than ten years, can finally raise their eyebrows, not only repay their fame, but also get off the exam. Time. Yu Jianbai led his two sons to close the door and read poetry all day long.
Yu Shi was busy for more than two days, and he packed up. There were seven wagons when they came, and when they left, there was a huge crowd of people. Jiang Shukun's people and Jiang Shuncheng and his wife, as well as Yu Jianzhang's family who returned to the imperial city with the Yu family.
Mama Qing is with the help of Jiang Shujiao. recognized a pair of fatherless and motherless Tian brothers and sisters as adopted sons and daughters.
Mama Tian bought a small girl and a girl for Yu Jianzhang, and even the housekeeper is from Jinyang, and most of them are the descendants of the Zeng family who were convicted and resold this time. Mama Tian couldn't bear to see their family separated, so she simply bought a family of four, two boys to serve as the servants and scholars of the two young masters of the Yu family, and his father to be Yu Jianzhang's old servant. I bought two alert girls for Pan'er and Rou'er sisters to be girls.
Yu Jianbai passed the township test, and Yu suggested that he go to the imperial city with him first, find a quiet place to study hard, and get Jiang Shuncheng and Jiang Shupeng to guide him, and Xu will make progress. Yu Jianbai readily agreed, settled his two sons, said yes to his wife, entrusted Yu Jianshu to take care of the big house, and followed them.
When the group left Jinyang City and passed through the area of Xiling Township, they heard a woman's cry from a distance: "Ancestor, ancestor save my daughter!" ”
This voice is strange, helpless, and poignant.
The Yu family opened the curtain and looked out, only to see a family of three standing at the intersection, but it was the Han family of the Jiang clan who had met each other and asked for help with their children.
Han pounced and knelt heavily on the ground: "Old ancestor, save my daughter!" The clansmen wanted to force Shun Gu to learn singing and dancing, and they wanted to dedicate her to the magnates of the imperial city as a concubine. Aunt Shun didn't want them to beat them with wattles, and asked the ancestor to be the master to save my daughter! ”
Jiang Shuncheng jumped out of the carriage with an ugly expression. He knew the idea of the clansmen, but now when he heard that the new emperor had ascended the throne, he was very young and angry, and he was afraid that he would not be sure if he wanted to raise a few more daughters.
Looking at the Han clan who pleaded so earnestly, the Yu clan remembered that when they saw this woman in the Jiang clan in the past, although the family was poor, she was always neatly dressed and in good spirits. It's only been a few days, Han's face is haggard, and Aunt Shun on the side is even more emaciated.
Han knelt on the ground, "Ask the ancestor to be the master and save my daughter." I only have this pair of children, even if I let her marry into a poor family, I will never let her be a concubine. ”
Jiang Shukun saw that his parents did not say anything, and Jiang Shuncheng's eyes were quite a bit of a meaning for him to take care of. Approaching on horseback, he looked down at the woman and child on the side of the road, "Let you go back to your clan, but I am afraid that they will find other ways to make things difficult." Why don't you go to the Imperial City with us? ”
Jiang Shiyun looked embarrassed, bit her lips, hugged her fists and said: "Please Pingxi Hou call the shots, let my mother and sister go to the imperial city first, and when I pass the township examination, I will go to the imperial city to find them." ”
Han Shi hurriedly said: "No! No, I can't leave you alone, you are going to take the rural test this autumn, so let Shun Gu follow the ancestor to the imperial city, so as not to have another idea of the clan. ”
The people of the Xiling Jiang clan are crazy now, those who have daughters send their daughters to the clan to learn singing and dancing, and those who don't have daughters actually pass over the children of relatives and send them with their heads sharpened.
Bijiang Shien looks a little good, and she is quiet and decent, but she was looked down upon by Jiang Shunyi and others, and she had to be sent there alive or dead. Han didn't allow it. Jiang Shunyi and others actually took the descendants of the Jiang family and forcibly pulled Jiang Shien into the women's school in the clan. The so-called women's school is a newly selected courtyard recently, located in the east courtyard of Jiang Shunxin's house, the courtyard is like a patio, and like a cage, nearly 20 girls were stopped in the middle. I studied with the pianists and dancers from Jinyang City all day long, and if I didn't learn well, I beat them with wattles.
Late last night, Jiang Shien was worried about her mother, and thinking that the family was busy with farming, so she knocked out the little maid guarded by the Jiang family and fled home overnight.
When Han saw the marks on his daughter's body, he was distressed, and brought a pair of children to Jiang Shuncheng to make the decision.
Aunt Shun (Jiang Shien) pulled Han Shi, shook her head and said, "Mother, I'm not leaving!" If I'm gone, they'll be going to embarrass you and my brother. I'm not going! These days, they have gone crazy, as long as they look at the good-looking ones, they will lock people up in the courtyard to learn singing and dancing......"
Jiang Shiyun is a man, seeing that his mother and sister were forced to come here by the clan, he thought that Jiang Shunyi and others brought the young descendants of the clan to the house to rob people that day, so he just caught Aunt Shun and went to the clan, no matter how the Han family begged, he was unmoved.
For the sake of glory and wealth, they all had red eyes, thinking about Jiang Shuncheng's scenery. I heard that more than 30 young girls have been sent in the courtyard of the courtyard, including those from the Xiling Jiang clan and the Dongtang Jiang clan, all of whom want their daughters to be their mothers, concubines for the powerful, and glory for their fathers and brothers.
Yu Jianbai hugged his fists and said: "Pingxi Hou, why don't you ask someone to repair a book, let Jiang Shiyun live in my house temporarily, and study hard with my two sons to prepare for this autumn's township exam?" Whether you have passed it or not, as soon as you pass the autumn test, let him come to you with the descendants of the Jiang clan. ”
Jiang Shukun said loudly, "I think Jianbai's idea is good. Han, what do you think? Let Shiyun go to Dongqiao Yu's house to study, and you will go to the imperial city with Aunt Shun. ”
Han was still hesitating, she couldn't give up her thirteen-year-old son.
Jiang Shiyun has a reputation as a prodigy in Jinyang, Yu Jianbai wants to be good friends with the Jiang family, and he has two sons at home who have reached marriageable age, so he may be able to get engaged. Although Shun Gu is only fourteen or fifteen years old, she is also born with beautiful eyebrows.
Jiang Shiyun said: "Mother, you and your sister go with the ancestors, I have nothing to do." ”
Yu Jianbai got into the carriage, and after a while, he wrote a letter to his family, handed it to Jiang Shiyun and said: "Take it, go to Guqiaozhuang, Nanqiao Township to find the Yu family in Zhuangnan, my eldest son is called Yu Zhenghua." ”
"Thank you, Master Yu!" Jiang Shiyun decisively took the letter, Jiang Jiazhuang can't reply, the Han family is gone, his sister is also gone, even if he has some talent, it is difficult to guarantee that the crazy clansmen will do other things.
Han has rarely shed tears in recent years, and at this moment, when he thinks of the separation of mother and son, tears are full of tears, "Yun'er ......"
"My mother and sister will enter the imperial city first, and in the autumn, I will enter the imperial city to find you."
Han nodded, and approached Yu's carriage with his daughter.
The carriage was big enough, there were originally four people on it, and now there were two more.
Rou'er's eyes sparkled, as if she could speak, and she stretched out her hand and pulled Aunt Shun: "My name is Yu Rou'er!" ”
Jiang Shien bowed and wanted to salute, but Yu said: "These vulgar rites are exempt." ”
Pan'er was doing needlework, which was a new robe made for her father and brother, and looked up at Han's mother and daughter with a smile.
Han was full of apologies: "I'm disturbing the old ancestor." ”
Su Yan saw that Jiang Shien was not much younger than herself, she was overjoyed, and reached out to lift her sleeves, only to see that her arms were all marked by beatings, which were shocking, and some of them were already soaked in blood.
Yu said angrily: "All of them are crazy, they said that they had to be voluntary, but they actually did something to force people to be concubines." ”
Su Yan turned around and took the brocade box, which contained several porcelain bottles, wet the handkerchief again, and took Jiang Shien's hand to wipe it, and Shien twitched her hand because of the pain.
