Chapter 158: Impeachment of Wei Qiu
"What?"
The rice bowl in Zhao Ruyu's hand fell to the ground with a "dang chang" and shattered.
She was brought up by her grandmother, and she has the deepest love with her grandmother.
The room was full of people looking at her.
Zhao Ruyu didn't care so much, grabbed her mother-in-law's hand, and asked urgently, "Is it serious?" Please didn't invite Langzhong? ”
"The person who came to summon him didn't say anything, and the old slave didn't want to ask. Three young grandmothers, go and have a look. The mother-in-law said.
Zhao Ruyu's mother-in-law, Mrs. Peng, saw that her daughter-in-law looked wrong, and had already come over, and when she heard this, she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" What happened? ”
Zhao Ruyu's tears fell, and she choked up: "It was said that my grandmother had a stroke." ”
"Huh?" Second Lady Peng got up in a hurry, turned her head and shouted, "Jin Rui." ”
A young man rushed over from the other end of the screen: "What's wrong?" ”
"You go with Ruyu, meet the people of the Hou Mansion of Suiping, and ask the old lady Hou about the situation. If not, go to the imperial doctor immediately. ”
"Okay." Peng Jinrui saw that his wife had run out with her skirt, so he hurriedly followed.
The Peng family hurriedly asked the mother-in-law who came to deliver the message: "What's the matter?" ”
So when Zhao Ruyu and Peng Jinrui asked about the situation and rushed to the Suiping Hou Mansion in a carriage, the entire Peng family, except for the ignorant children under a few years old, knew that the old lady of the Suiping Hou Mansion was so angry that the second lady Wei had a stroke.
"Is there such a daughter-in-law in the world?" Some in Peng's house were skeptical.
The person who questioned it was Peng Jinrui's cousin's wife, and he had a little conflict with Zhao Ruyu. Although the two have never quarreled, they don't like each other.
She didn't deliberately provoke, but her own mother's family education was very strict, and marrying into the Peng Mansion was also extremely strict, she really couldn't imagine that there was such a domineering daughter-in-law in this world.
"Why not? There are many such people in the world. Her mother-in-law glared at her.
"So, whatever you marry, don't marry the daughter of someone like that." Mrs. Peng said.
"That's it." Everyone nodded in agreement.
Although Mrs. Peng didn't say exactly what kind of family "that kind of family" was, everyone understood what she meant.
Wei Qiu was born in a poor family, and later he was admitted to the Jinshi and was very good at drilling, so he became the Taichang Siqing. His wife was a young lady from a small landlord's family, and she couldn't read a single big word; Mrs. Wei was even more born with mud legs. In the eyes of these ladies and ladies of the family, they are people who are uneducated and do not understand the rules.
It is not to blame that they are prejudiced, but it is true that every year the newly promoted scholars or officials who are promoted from the local government may become colleagues or bosses of their husbands and sons, and their wives and wives are invited to a banquet at home.
There are also some families who take a fancy to the new Jinshi to learn character and marry their daughters to him. As a result, the mother-in-law was rude and rude, not to mention eating and usurping her daughter-in-law's dowry, and she wanted to step on this young lady of the family to show her majesty and torture her daughter-in-law.
Even if this kind of thing is just an exception among poor officials, it has accumulated over the past tens or hundreds of years. For this reason, the family is reluctant to marry someone born in a poor family. Even if Wei Qiu is now in the third grade of official residence, when it comes to the wedding market, the market of the children of the Wei family is still not very good.
If it weren't for Zhao Yuanliang being fascinated by the Wei family and wanting to marry her, the dead grandfather of the country was worried that his wife would treat his concubine slowly, so he asked the old lady to agree to this marriage, and the old lady didn't want to deal with them, and the Wei family really couldn't marry into the Suiguo Mansion at that time.
"Alright, let's eat. Tomorrow, I will go to the Gongqing Palace for a banquet. Rest early after eating. Mrs. Peng spoke.
Everyone hurriedly responded and sat down to eat.
Tomorrow, the princess invited them to enjoy the lotus. said that it was a lotus reward, but it was actually a blind date banquet. The ladies of each family took their school-age girls to drink, drink, eat, eat, admire the flowers and chat, and by the way, see if there is a suitable girl for their sons and grandsons.
"The second family, wait for Ruyu to come back, you ask her about the situation. Early tomorrow morning, you prepare some gifts and go to the Suiping Marquis Mansion to visit the sick. Anyway, the banquet is set at noon, and it's not too late for you to go to the banquet after you go to the Suiping Marquis Mansion. Mrs. Peng spoke again.
Second Mrs. Peng hurriedly stood up and responded.
The same situation appeared in Zhao Ruyu's sister Zhao Ruzhu's family, as well as Zhao Yuanxun's sister-in-law, Zhao Wenyun's family, who married into the family's family.
Whether it is Zhao Ruzhu or Zhao Wenyun, the husband's family may not be a wealthy family, but it is not a wealthy family without roots. Even if it is not a generational eunuch, it is also a scholarly family, and there are many aunts and concubines in the family. Because of the different classes, the circles they belong to are not the same.
The woman in the house is bored, and she finally got such a gossip, and it is related to the family style of the poor officials, which is the favorite topic of the women of the family. On the second day, the women of the Peng family went to the banquet, and several other women went to the door, but after a day's work, almost everyone in the capital knew about it.
Originally, everyone only listened to this as gossip, and they were suspicious in their hearts, and they couldn't believe that it was true.
But when those who are related to the Suiping Hou Mansion or have a close relationship go to the Hou Mansion to visit the sick and go away, Wei ran to the old lady's courtyard for an aunt to search and make the old lady have a stroke.
The court is never a peaceful place, and the various factions fight to the death. Wei Qiu's promotion was extremely fast, which naturally offended the interests of some people. After all, a radish has a pit, and if he occupies the pit of the fourth and third grades, others will have to be squeezed down.
Originally, Wei Guogong had arranged for someone to take action, but before the people of their faction came out, the imperial historian came out to impeach Wei Qiu, saying that he was not strict in governing his family and was not upright, so he let a daughter dominate here. has a daughter like this, and I don't know how his children and grandchildren are unscrupulous on weekdays.
Wei Qiu, the reason why he is good at drilling camps is because he is especially good at drilling the cracks of the doors of the powerful, has great eyesight, knows who to stammer, and is also very good at talking and patting sycophants. He was promoted quickly, not only because the three princes and the faction were strongly promoted, but also because the emperor liked his sycophants.
If the emperor dislikes Wei Qiu, even if he has no fault, he can find a reason to belittle his officials. But he looked at Wei Qiu pleasing to the eye, and the impeachment of the imperial historians was irrelevant—in the eyes of the emperor, this was not a big deal. Although Wei is Wei Qiu's daughter, she has been married to the Suiping Marquis Mansion for more than ten years. Her words and deeds have to be taken care of by the Suiping Marquis Mansion, right?
But it's about filial piety. If Wei's behavior is not reprimanded, then it may be him, the emperor, who will be criticized. This matter reached the ears of the Queen Mother, and she was not sure how the Queen Mother would reprimand him.
Therefore, in front of hundreds of officials, he fiercely pleaded with Wei Qiu, asking him to go back and discipline and teach the children in his family to stop doing rude things.
