Seeing that her daughter was so persistent, Ruan Zhenmei shook her head and smiled, and said: "The Jinshi given by the emperor's decree and the official position of the emperor's decree are all despised by my generation. My generation has been cold for ten years, and he has won fame, relying on real talent and learning, what does he rely on? It's not that it depends on the emperor's will, tends to be inflammatory, flatters and invites pets, villains, and annihilation. It seems to be a father, and now he is said to be returning to the dynasty and promoted to the right deputy capital of the Imperial Palace, which is real, the cabinet votes, the emperor's instructions, and the dignified and upright comes. This is called being above board, and people in my generation should be like this. ”

"Father, you have been idle for many years, and you can reactivate, isn't it also the emperor's face for the sake of your husband. Otherwise, the emperor has only been on the throne for a few years, how can he know who his father is? Ruan Aoyue said stubbornly.

"Yue Su has always boasted of being high, and even Zou Jiaren, the master who promoted him back then, can be a father in front of the emperor if he does not respect his teacher and respects the Tao. For the father to be able to resurrect, when the first battle was the emperor's sage, and the second battle was the father's official, he was quite famous and admired by Shilin, so he had to do so. Ruan Zhenmei said boastfully: "It was also because my father lost his eyes back then, and he didn't think much about it, since this Yue Su is Xie Yuan, why didn't he go to the exam, but instead received a county order." Looking back now, I realized that he didn't dare to take the test. If I had experienced it a lot, how could it have been? Well, since the wood is already in the boat, you can do it yourself. ”

"Father, how can you say that. The husband scolded Zou Jiaren, and that was also Zou Jiaren's full of evil, and he deserved it. My husband's righteous annihilation of relatives has been well received by the people of Kaifeng, and everywhere he goes, he is sincerely welcomed and shouted Qingtian. Looking at the world, there are a few people who can do it. Ruan Aoyue said with reason.

"What a righteous murderer!" Ruan Zhenmei said disdainfully: "If my father breaks the law and falls into the hands of his Yue Su, I am afraid that he will also kill his relatives in righteousness, so what kind of tiger head will be used to kill me." ”

After going north and south of the river, Ruan Zhenmei heard more and more things about Yue Su, and when she found a place to eat, she could hear someone talking about Yue Su and the three copper guils. The more he listened, the more he understood what Yue Su did.

Ruan Zhenmei was very dissatisfied with many of Yue Su's actions, thinking that Yue Su would not be an official. Naturally, he will not be able to be a person. It's hard to copy a solution, just copy it, no one knows, just forget it, why do so many things that are not good for you. Offend this today, offend that tomorrow, and either offend the powerful and rich, or offend the people in Shilin, it seems that you don't deal with anyone except for not doing anything with the emperor and the common people. Have a good relationship with the emperor, that's no problem, what's the use of you always protecting those poor people, it's okay to walk around with the people in Shilin, and make more friends with the powerful in the officialdom, that's what you should do.

"Father......" Hearing Ruan Zhenmei's words, Aoyue didn't know what to say.

Ruan Zhenmei was calm, smiled slightly, and said, "Daughter, if you say anything superfluous, your father won't say much." You will always be a good daughter of your father, and you will be the pearl of your father's palm, as for him Yue Su, I have decided to draw a line with him and no longer recognize him as a son-in-law. ”

"Father, why do you bother? Husband's business, isn't it ...... now"

Seeing that her father said that she didn't recognize Yue Su as her son-in-law, Ao Yue was a little anxious, but she couldn't finish explaining, so she was interrupted by Ruan Zhenmei. "Daughter, don't you know that in the original cheating in the Yue Su Science Field and deserving of severe punishment, there was also a share for the father. Since his father wrote this excerpt, he has already made his position clear and completely cut off contact with him Yue Su. ”

Speaking of this, Ruan Zhenmei stood up and said, "It's not too early now, my father is going to go to the city to register with the officials, and then enter the palace to see His Majesty." When you are settled, you can come to your father's dwelling place at any time, and we will talk again. ”

With that, Ruan Zhenmei walked out of the pavilion and went straight to the carriage.

"Father......" Ruan Aoyue stood up and looked at her father's back, not knowing what to do.

Ruan Zhenmei didn't want Yue Su's son-in-law, but how did he know that Lord Yue was actually very sought-after, and there were many people who wanted him as a son-in-law.

Kunming Qianguo Mansion, in the study of Mu Qiyuan, Qianguo Gong.

At this moment, Grandpa Mu was reading a book, and suddenly heard a knock on the door, and asked, it turned out to be the housekeeper in the house.

"Master, it was Guan Yu who sent someone to send a letter about Miss's recent situation."

As soon as he heard that it was a letter about his daughter, Mu Qiyuan hurriedly asked him to come in, and after the housekeeper entered the room, he walked to the bookcase and respectfully presented the letter.

It turned out that when Mu Tianjiao went out to play, Mu Qiyuan instructed Guan Yu to report the recent situation of the county lord every month. This is also the care that a father cares for his daughter.

Mu Qiyuan took the letter, took a look, and after reading it, he didn't say a word for a long time. He didn't speak, where did the big butler dare to ask, he could only stand honestly.

After waiting for a long time, he only heard Mu Qiyuan frown and said: "Tianjiao followed Yue Su into Beijing, and now he lives in Shuntian Mansion." It's not going to be good......"

"Sir, the old slave has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not...... the big butler said carefully.

"You have followed my Mu family for generations, and you are no longer an outsider, what do you have to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Mu Qiyuan said.

"The old slave is also from the past, and some things can be seen clearly, I think the young lady seems to have a good impression of that Lord Yue. Moreover, this good feeling seems to be ......" Speaking of this, the big butler just smiled, although he didn't finish the sentence, but everyone understood the meaning.

Mu Qiyuan nodded and said, "You're right. Tianjiao really likes that Yue Su, but she is a married woman after all, even if Amaterasu has passed away, she always follows Yue Su, which will inevitably attract gossip. No, Guan Yu said in the letter that there are already many people in the capital who are talking about this matter behind their backs, saying that Tianjiao does not abide by women's morals, and in the long run, what kind of system will it become, and the reputation of my Qianguo Mansion will not be so ruined. However, Tianjiao, this girl has been widowed for many years, and she is depressed all day, if I call her back like this, when I get home, I can't be depressed, and I feel uncomfortable when I see it. ”

After speaking, Mu Qiyuan sent Guan Yu's letter forward and said, "Tianjiao also watched grow up, you can also read this letter." ”

"Thank you, sir." The butler took the letter with both hands and read it carefully.

The content of the letter is divided into two parts, one part is the recent situation in the capital, mainly written by Yue Su, the cheating is not dangerous, and now it has been promoted to the book of the criminal department, and the crown prince is crowned. The other part is to write about Mu Tianjiao, saying that the county lord has always been in good health and in a good mood, and he is with the daughters of the Yue family all day, and he will catch up with Lord Yue to return home at night, and he will finish eating together. However, the news that the county lord accompanied Lord Yue into Beijing has now spread and has become a topic of conversation after tea and dinner. These things seem to be those who hate Yue Su, because Lord Yue was not punished, so they deliberately spread it.

After reading it, the chief housekeeper said: "Master, looking at the content of the letter, this Yue Su seems to be very valued by the emperor now, and even major cases such as cheating in the field have not been punished, but the official is getting bigger and bigger." ”

"Isn't it just cheating in the field, what kind of thing is it, those literati have broken their brains when they read books, so they chase this matter to the end all day long. I think Yue Su is very good, not like that group of people who read and read stupidly, when he was the prefect of Tongren, Benjue saw him as a piece of material, how about it, it is really unexpected, now they have been promoted to the prince and the prince, and in a few years, it is difficult to say that he will enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister. "Mu Qiyuan is a hereditary general, and he doesn't look down on those scholars who don't look down on those who are also dancing and writing all day long, and some time ago, because of the conflict with the local Shilin people, he was participated in by the governor of Yunnan. But this matter entered the Beijing Division, and it was not over, and there was no follow-up.

Therefore, in his eyes, a talented person does not depend on the level of education.

"What the master said is that Yue Su is indeed a talent, and he is also a talent who is favored by the emperor, which is even more rare. So the old slave was thinking, if the emperor could give Yue Su and Miss a marriage, wouldn't it be justified and fulfill Miss. The big butler said with a smile.

"You're right, but it's easier said than done. Do you want the old man to give the emperor and the queen a discount again, and ask the emperor to give them a marriage? If Tianjiao wasn't a widow, it would be easy to say, now, how do you ask me to write this excerpt. Mu Qiyuan was obviously a little embarrassed.

"Master, in fact, the old slave thinks that you don't need to come forward for this matter, can you ask someone else to do it for you?" The butler laughed again.

"Looking for someone else? Who are you looking for? Mu Qiyuan asked curiously.

"Find him......" The big butler immediately gave out all the countermeasures he thought of.

After listening to his story, Mu Qiyuan couldn't help laughing excitedly and said, "Miao, Miao, just do it." Now tell thee to draw up the epistle and prepare the money. ”

"The old slave obeys."

Jin Chan took the people and horses, and escorted all the people and goods to the Yamen of Bazhou Zhizhou, Yue Su first asked Manager Zhang to inspect the goods, and he bought the goods himself, of course he knew. These high-quality lake silk, ordinary merchants, do not say that they can buy it, after careful identification, Steward Zhang can conclude that these silk goods are bought by themselves.

Through the furoshiki confessed by Jixiang Satin Village, coupled with Zhang Sheng's confirmation, the case is clear. As long as you find someone to sell silk goods, everything will fall into place.

Yue Su interrogated the shopkeepers who had seen the sellers one by one, carefully inquiring about their appearance, characteristics, and accents.

Most of these shopkeepers have excellent memory, and in a short time, they can probably describe Ma Guangyi's appearance clearly, and what they described is roughly consistent. As for the accent, everyone unanimously replied that it was a Beijing accent. This time, it was better to do it, Yue Su asked the painter to draw shadow graphics, draw Ma Guangyi's appearance on paper, and then ask all the shopkeepers to identify them one by one, pick out what is wrong, and then change it. After several sketches, Ma Guangyi's graphics were finally drawn, which was really vivid.

Buckle the stolen goods and the shopkeeper and men of the auspicious satin village, release all the others, take the body found by Bao Behead, and set off to return to Beijing.
