Chapter Eighty-Eight: Marriage and Death

On the first day of returning to Nanjing, the news that Li Yi, a thousand households of Jinyi Wei in the capital, was going to marry Sun Ying, the daughter of Yin Sun Mao's family in Yingtianfu, spread.

Everyone in Jinyi was happy, and at the strong request of Li Yan, he canceled Xu Pengju's plan to fill the city with lights, and he couldn't be too arrogant, and if he was too arrogant, there would definitely be no good fruit to eat.

Li Yan wants to be low-key, but some people don't want Li Yi to be so low-key, Li Yi wants to get married, but some people don't want Li Yi to get married so smoothly.

The matter of Li Yan's marriage set off a storm in Nanjing, and almost everyone was talking about it.

Ordinary people just talk about it after dinner, young men envy Li Yan for marrying a beautiful woman, Huaichun girls envy Sun Ying for having such a wishful husband, and parents are envious of Sun Mao for having a fast son-in-law who rides the dragon in the future.

But these are just ordinary people's, and there are still unusual people in Nanjing! That's the civil servants.

This group of civil officials who are courteous, honest, filial, and faithful all day long do not agree to Li Yan's marriage!

Jin Yiwei married the daughter of a civil official, and for a while Sun Mao passively stood on the cusp of Nanjing, all the civil officials in Nanjing expressed their dissatisfaction more or less openly and secretly, and even some people expressed their attitude on the spot, this pro, absolutely can't be done!

Jin Yiwei marries your daughter, what's going on? Are you still part of the civil service?

Sun Mao, who was originally high, had a reputation plummeting in Nanjing on this day, and everyone expressed their hostility towards him.

The Sun family, Sun Mao is a little anxious now, although Sun Mao has also thought about this situation, but it didn't come so quickly, which caught Sun Mao off guard, and diluted the joy of getting married a lot.

Sun Mao is not very good at business, and many officials in Nanjing only have official dealings, and have no private intersections with any of them, so at this time, there are almost no people who are willing to stand up and say a word of justice for Sun Mao, even if there are a few who are willing to speak, they are all drowned in the panic voices.

Sun Ying's face was distorted by anger, and after learning that the civil officials in Nanjing had quite objections to their marriage, they almost had to copy the knife and visit them door to door!

"It's not easy to make this kiss......!" Sun Mao sighed heavily and looked at his daughter.

Sun Ying's tears were hazy, she knew her father's character, he was an out-and-out clean official, upright, Nanjing had been in office for so many years without any party and selfishness, but today he was forced to be like this by the civil officials in Nanjing because of his marriage.

"Dad, my daughter is not good, let you suffer for me......" Sun Ying threw herself into Sun Mao's arms and cried bitterly, Sun Ying really couldn't help it, because she really didn't understand, didn't she just want to marry someone she loved, and these people did everything they could to obstruct it?

Sun Ying couldn't figure it out, but Sun Mao thought about it, so Sun Mao was very uncomfortable now, and he almost resigned from this official in a fit of anger.

But when he thought of his future son-in-law, he suddenly felt that there might be a turning point in this matter......

……

…………

In fact, Li Qianhu is already on the road of finding a way......

Li Yan is not in a good mood now, he is sitting at Xu Pengju's house at the moment, knocking on the table with his hands, his voice is hurried and anxious.

Outside the gate of Xufu, all the brocade guards in Nanjing were ready to go, Zhao Shun stood outside the door, his hand was already on the handle of the knife, as long as he gave an order, he would definitely throw these blind civil officials in Nanjing into the edict one by one.

The officials of Beijing are at the top level, and the officials who come out of the capital have great power in the local area, and the prestige of Li Yi in Nanjing is quite high, so they can easily command the Jinyi Guard in Nanjing.

In the room, Xu Pengju and Zhu Houzhao comforted Li Yan rarely, this time not only Xu Pengju, but even Zhu Houzhao felt that Li Yan was a little impulsive this time.

There are not many civil officials in Nanjing who can be ranked up, how can there be dozens of people, if Li Yan impulsively arrests them, I am afraid that it will cause an uproar, and I am afraid that even Zhu Houzhao will not be able to protect him at that time.

Getting married is the first major event in Li Yan's life, so Li Yan now feels a little fluttering, but this fluttering feeling didn't last long, and he was poured down with a basin of cold water by this group of hateful civil officials, not only that, but this group of civil officials is really hateful, a basin of cold water is not enough, and they actually poured basins on Li Yi's head one after another......

Damn, Li Yan, who hasn't spoken rudely for a long time, suddenly has a feeling of wanting to scold his mother.

"Let's discuss this matter from the beginning, after all, your marriage is still a big deal, and you can't be disturbed by this group of civil officials."

Xu Pengju is calmer than Li Yan now, and said in a deep voice.

"Well, it's time to start from scratch." Li Yan also nodded, and then looked at Zhu Houzhao. "When the time comes, please ask Your Highness to wish me a hand."

"No problem! It sounds like it's going to be exciting! If you don't call me, I'll go! ”

Zhu Houzhao, the little faint gentleman, still likes to join in the fun, which sounds quite ridiculous, but it has already shown that he is on Li Yan's side this time.

The three of them discussed for a long time, until the afternoon, Li Yan walked out of the Xu Mansion with a gloomy face, and after whispering a few words in Zhao Shun's ear, all the brocade guards withdrew to the guard, and then walked out from the door of the guard, one after another people in civilian clothes walked out, after each nodded, they all walked to various teahouses in Nanjing, or prosperous places, and talked with people, among them, or asked about life, or asked others, but did not leave a topic, that is, Nanjing officials, especially civil officials.

……

…………

Jin Yiwei let out his eyeliner, everything was done in secret, no one knew about this move, and Nanjing looked the same as usual on the surface.

It's just that in Li Yan's hand, there is some more blank paper, on which are written some things that only Li Yan himself can understand.

"Being an official is not in charge of the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes, tsk, the art masters are bold, these beasts."

Li Yan sneered, picked up a stack of invitations in his hand, and threw them into Zhao Shun's arms.

"Please post it next, this thousand households invite Nanjing officials tonight!"

"Yes! My lord! ”

Zhao Shun didn't have a hippie smile, and walked out with a serious and rare order.

Tonight's Nanjing is not destined to be calm.
