Chapter 61: The Chen Family

Yesterday, it was obviously the master, Jin Tuan lowered his head, and wanted to explain aggrievedly, but was frightened by Tang Jingruo's eyes.

However, after watching their eye interaction, Song Yiyao had already guessed that he was probably playing a drunken mania, admitting his mistake in a gray manner, picking up the golden group, and rubbing his head well. Guaranteed to bring two dumplings to eat something delicious.

Well, for the sake of the master's mistake, I forgive her for having to splash ink and draw on my cloak with her paws. Jin Tuan thought to himself.

"Lord Song, Little Marquis, someone handed you two posts."

Guan Yu entered the door and handed her the gilded post, he glanced down and said in surprise:

"Are these the cat's two kittens?"

Tang Jingruo nodded slightly in acknowledgement.

Okay, how can someone send the post here, the gilded red post was opened, revealing the signatory, she didn't expect three words anyway, Chen Shukang. Chen Shukang of the Jianghuai Chen family, the last time he heard it was in Shen Yuecheng's mouth.

Song Yiyao raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at it carefully. The content of the post was unexpected.

Chen Shukang moved his family to the imperial city and invited him to the relocation banquet. Time, tomorrow.

"What's wrong?" Tang Jingruo saw that his expression was wrong, so he took the post from his hand, roughly swept it, and understood.

Although Song Yiyao never mentioned his life experience, there are still quite a few people in the imperial city who know about it.

In that year, Song Yunge, the second lady of the Guogong Mansion, married the Jianghuai Chen family from the imperial city.

At that time, the Chen family had not yet entered the decline, and the Jianghuai family was powerful, and the imperial city was also involved.

The emperor personally allowed the Song family army to escort him, and he was supreme Longen. The carriage pulling the dowry was mighty and stretched for more than ten miles.

Everyone will say that they are talented and beautiful, a match made in heaven.

Many people still remember the pomp and circumstance. But less than two years later, Yun Ge sent a letter to Hugh, which caused another sensation in the imperial city.

Regardless of the reason, the woman Hufu was simply a big joke for the Great Zhou at that time, how could there be such a truth for thousands of years, and the rumors were like wildfires, and even caused controversy in the court and China for several days.

In the end, whether the woman was lawful or not should have become the root of the controversy.

For there is never a law that says yes or no.

At that time, it was Li Xiangli who defied public opinion and argued on the basis of reason. Finally said that the emperor was moved.

Song Lao Guogong even threatened that he would never let his daughter suffer a little grievance, and went to Jianghuai to pick his daughter back. There was no fighting, and there was no trouble.

Song Yunge took his dowry, endured the rumors of thousands of people, and returned to the imperial city.

Two months had passed when I found out that I was pregnant.

The child is very well-behaved, but also weak. Song Yunge thought about it for a long time.

That day, Mrs. Song sat with her in the garden for an afternoon. And she finally decided to keep the child.

This incident has once again become the subject of gossip, and the Chen family, who heard countless ridicules, decided to have the courage to ask for a child after knowing about it.

As for the time, it was chosen on the date of the expected birth of the child.

That night, the Guogong Mansion stayed up all night, and Song Yunge and the prime minister's wife, Song Xiansi, who was the eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion, gave birth at the same time.

There are three children in total, named Li An, Li Ran, and Song Yiyao.

Long life and peace and quiet joy. The wings of the weeping clouds soar upward. Two are praying for safety, and the other is looking forward to freedom.

Chen Shukang, who came to beg for a child, had a closed door, failed to do so, coerced and lured to no avail, and returned to Jianghuai in a gloomy manner.

This drama has finally come to an end, and there are only countless talking points left.

The two powerful men have a feud and do not get along with each other.

Song Yunge was determined to be in the world, and later when Song Yiyao was ten years old, he went out and traveled around famous mountains and rivers to write travelogues. Once a year.

Every time she returned, Song Yunge, who was full of spirit or weather, would bring Song Yiyao all kinds of strange gadgets, let her watch the games she remembered, and always accompany her, hugging her and crying for a long, long time.

Song Yiyao had never met Chen Shukang, and she never thought of seeing her, for her, it was just a stranger.

Twenty years later, Chen Shukang's first attempt to see his children turned out to be based on this kind of relocation banquet post.

Song Yiyao couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

Tang Jingruo threw the post on the table. "Don't go."

Song Yiyao responded, took a deep breath, saw the worry on Tang Jingruo's face, and smiled.

"I really didn't pay attention to it, he had nothing to do with me."

I thought I would just go away, but after the ya, Song Yiyao's carriage was stopped.

When the street dared to stop the carriage that came out of the criminal department, the people passing by keenly felt that something was wrong and slowly stopped.

"Who are you?" Shen Mo, who was sitting outside the carriage, asked.

The man who stopped the carriage was a servant in his forties, dressed in gray with the imprint of the Chen family on the corner.

After seeing it clearly, Shen Mo regretted asking that voice, and whispered to the coachman: "Pass by." ”

"What's wrong?" Song Yi lifted the curtain in confusion.

When he saw the Lord, the straight man who stood there said:

"Lord Song! I am your father's servant, and your father wants to invite you over. ”

His voice was deliberately amplified, and passers-by were listening with their ears pricked up. So more people stopped.

"This official has no father, and if you don't give way, you will be punished according to your crime."

How could Song Yiyao not see that he was deliberately looking for trouble, and said lightly.

The servant was not frightened away, and took out the words that had been prepared a long time ago, and said with emotion:

"What are you talking about, the old man has been thinking about you for a long time. I came here to settle in the Imperial City, but I can't just see you? ”

"What does he do with me?"

Song Yiyao's expression didn't move, and he directly lowered the car curtain.

There is so much information in one passage that can be speculated and filled. The crowd of onlookers gradually became noisy.

Although a long time has passed since the events of that year, since Song Yunge, the Great Zhou Dynasty has established the law that women can also ask for reconciliation. It's just that the requirements are strict and need to meet the rules and regulations.

As the first woman to publish a book and a precedent for Hugh, Song Yunge's name as a strange woman is almost universally known. The things between her and the Chen family were widely circulated as stories.

It's not very clear, but after a little questioning, it came out of the onlookers.

Because there were too many people gathered at the door, the officers and soldiers guarding the door of the Criminal Department saw that Song Yiyao's carriage was stopped, and hurriedly ran over to evacuate the crowd.

I thought this was the end of the matter. But the next morning, Song Yiyao's carriage was stopped again. It's just that he changed a servant, and he still came to pester.

This time, Shen Mo ignored it directly, and went directly to the side of the road.

This trouble, for three days, successfully brought this matter to everyone in the imperial city, and the rumors spread and boiled.

In the end, anyone wearing the clothes of the Chen family's servants would be directly driven away by the officers and soldiers when they stopped at the entrance of the criminal department.

At noon on the fourth day, a horse-drawn carriage stopped at the entrance of the criminal department. Inside the carriage, Chen Shukang closed his eyes sickly, calculating how to let his biological child see him.

Since the original incident came out, he has been squeezed out by the Chen family.

Now because of that unfilial son, he has to move to the imperial city to seek a chance of survival. Song Yiyao, the child, is the only chance for their family to return to the Chen family. Maybe with him, the position of the head of the Chen family can fall into his hands. He had to get this kid back home!

Outside, the servant parked the carriage and gently buckled the carriage:

"Sir, it's here."

Chen Shukang opened his eyes, coughed heavily, and was slowly helped out of the carriage and sat in a wheelchair. A small blanket was also placed on his lap.

"Yes, it's the Chen family again." The officers and soldiers on duty saw it with sharp eyes, sighed with their companions, and stepped forward to shout.

"You are not allowed to stay at the entrance of the official office, you know?"

"Contemptible, cough, I want to see Lord Song. I'm tired of this little brother to spread the word. Ahem..."

Chen Shukang stretched out a hand to stop the servant beside him and said to himself.

The officers and soldiers saw that he was wearing a brocade robe, sick and old, and guessed his identity, and they couldn't figure out whether to rush or not.

"Then you wait here first, and I'll pass it on."

It's really perseverance, Song Yiyao looked at Chen Shukang across the table, expressionless.

Seeing Song Yiyao for the first time, Chen Shukang burst into tears with excitement: "Child, cough, back then, it was my father who was wrong. Ahem, I've spent so many years in remorse. You, can you forgive your father? ”

Song Yiyao took a deep breath and said seriously: "My mother has reconciled with you back then, and since then, there has been no relationship between me and you. and the book in black and white, and the government has archives. If you don't believe it, you can go to the household department to check it out. ”

Chen Shukang couldn't say two words, and began to cough again: "Child, are you still blaming your father, right, cough, cough..."

"What happened back then has nothing to do with me, and I hope Master Chen won't be entangled anymore." Don't make trouble again in the future. Otherwise, if you obstruct official business, the criminal department will not mind directly arresting people. ”

Song Yiyao's last patience had run out. After saying that, he walked straight away.

That vicious woman really raised her child like this, since this is the case, she can't blame herself for not caring about the relationship between father and son! Chen Shukang's face was gloomy, and he grabbed the armrest of the wheelchair fiercely.

Seeing Chen Shukang get down from the carriage, Chen Nanxing, the eldest son who was teasing the little maid in the yard, stopped. After he entered the backyard, he began to taunt: "Tut-tut, I'm going to touch someone's cold ass with a hot face again, it's not a shame." ”

"The second brother is an upstart in the dynasty, the left servant of the criminal department, do you know how many grades it is, how can it be much better than us bastards?"

The sun was very good, and the second son, Chen Kongqing, wrapped in a fox fur, closed his eyes peacefully and happily, and replied. He is only eighteen this year, and he was born to Chen Shukang's later side room.

Chen Nanxing, who was the same age as Song Yiyao, snorted coldly, thinking of his situation, he became more and more unconvinced:

"What is the upstart of the dynasty, the upstart of the dynasty who doesn't even recognize his father? Second brother, your name is intimate. I'm afraid that I can't wait to have a relationship with others, do you think people will look at you? ”

"If I were him, I wouldn't recognize it." Chen Kongqing shook Erlang's legs leisurely, not taking this level of sarcasm to heart at all.

Angry, Chen Nanxing spoke more and more meanly:

"You have to have his ability and his good mother!"

Chen Kongqing opened one eye slightly, closed it lazily, and sighed: "I really don't know why my brother laughs at me." ”

Hearing the meaning of his words, Chen Nanxing's face fell. He went back to his yard with a black face.

Chen Kongqing still looked indifferent, and sighed at the little girl who pressed her leg on the side:

"If it weren't for his mother, how could the Chen family be where they are today, don't you say?"

was suddenly asked such a question, and the little maid who didn't dare to offend on either side hurriedly lowered her head: "Slave, slave doesn't know." ”

The conversation that day was fruitless, and Chen Shukang could only follow the previous method.

was not allowed to go to the gate of the Criminal Department, so they simply changed places and moved to the front of Song Yiyao's house. The words became more and more earnest, and the words were like threats like soft nails.

However, the family members of the Song Mansion were even more unkind to the people of the Chen family.

This matter became bigger and bigger, and in the end, it actually reached the court.

It was Kou Ge Lao who was moved by the Chen family, who was more than pedantic, and listened to and believed partially. The most important thing is to listen to the filial piety.

After thinking that he understood the ins and outs, Kou Ge Lao wrote an excerpt the next day, and took a good look at Song Yiyao. List the so-called four major crimes.

All of them are accusing Song Yiyao of being unkind, unjust, unfilial and disloyal.

As soon as he read this fold, the court immediately fell into a rare silence.

Everyone knows that Song Yiyao, the secretary of the Criminal Department, is now a celebrity in front of the emperor. He has handled several major cases in a row, made meritorious contributions one after another, and does not belong to any secret party. It is precisely because of their neutrality that they have always been an important target for what they want to recruit. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as hot.

Since he is an official, he is the first to participate in him, but it will not be the last.

"Huh."

In the lobby where a pin can be heard, a sneer can be heard clearly.

After reading the excerpt, Kou Ge was still proud and complacent, thinking that full of justice would attract a lot of vassals.

Unexpectedly, the first sound I heard was a sneer. His anger came up all of a sudden, facing Tang Jingruo:

"What do you think about the official's participation, but it doesn't matter."

Tang Jingruo stood up, his face was cold, and his voice was loud: "There are opinions, but the performance is biased, and there is no place to stand." It's just nonsense. ”

Li Xiang originally agreed with Kou Ge Lao's statement, but when he saw Li Jin's face sideways, he was afraid that this would make Li Jin even more mindful, so he could only be silent.

Guan Ge Lao has always had a temper to say something, and he also stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, Second Miss Song and Chen Shukang have been reconciled back then, but they are severed, why are they so involved. Wei Chen didn't think Lord Song was wrong. ”

Kou Ge Lao argued with him: "Isn't it wrong that I haven't visited my father Chen Shukang once for more than 20 years because of my son's unfilial piety? ”

Seeing that these two were about to quarrel again, Tang Shao knocked on the table and said:

"Back then, when Miss Song Er and Li, didn't the emperor already make a decision?"
