Chapter Seventy-Seven: Change

The good news of the imperial examination are all in triplicate, one is posted at the place of examination, and the other two are sent to the ancestral home of the high school person by the messenger or post station according to the level of the examination, or the local county school where the mansion is located, and then they come to the door to report the good news.

Things like Lin Jin who showed talent in the examination and ranked in general, in Jiangnan, a place with a prosperous literary style, it stands to reason that it is not worth the county school official to come to the door to report the good news, but he is the son of the Lin family, and Lin Ruhai also served as the fat poor of the salt patrol imperial history, so the news of Lin Jin's talent in the examination was told by several groups of people who came to the good news for the money when she had not returned to Yangzhou.

Although the ranking is not high, the Lin Mansion is still very happy about Lin Jin's talent in the examination, especially Aunt Lin, who breathes a sigh of relief. Since she knew that Lin Jin was going to take the imperial examination, she was hanging, she was not worried about whether Lin Jin passed the examination, but worried that Lin Jin's identity as a woman and a man would be exposed. She is not as big-hearted as Yang Wan, when she heard that Lin Jin was going to take the imperial examination, and was worried about her identity, she was relieved by Lin Jin's words, and she could relax with her own arrangements.

Because of a serious illness, Lin Jin who returned to Yangzhou still looked a little out of spirit, Lin Ruhai was very distressed when he saw her like this, but as a father, he not only had to maintain a steady appearance in front of her, but also couldn't show his straightforward love, but Mama Tao, who followed Lin Jin to Gusu, followed Wang Zuo and Wang You, Xiao Qi Yanmo and Zhuyan, was personally ordered by him to fine half a year's monthly money for not taking care of Lin Jin.

In this regard, Wang Zuo and Wang You were not dissatisfied, but Yan Mo and Zhu Yan were not convinced, because after arriving in Gusu, Lin Jin threw them to the clan and did not let them follow them at all, so they felt that Lin Jian's illness was none of their business. However, even if there is injustice, this matter is a decision made by Lin Ruhai, even Lin Jin can't change it, so he can only put away his dissatisfaction and obediently bow his head and admit punishment.

Because she finally solved a big thing hanging in her heart, Lin Jin felt a lot more relaxed, anyway, with the fame of this talent in hand, she finally has the qualifications to speak out a little bit in this society.

Although Lin Jin's illness has been cured, whether it is Lin Ruhai, Aunt Lin and Yang Wan, they all feel that she needs to take care of her, so after Lin Jin returned home, she worked as a rice worm for a long time.

During the period of recuperation, Lin Jin learned from several letters written by Yuou that she originally thought that even if Zhen Feng's family knew that her daughter Yinglian was in the Xue family, but she had no power and power, she could not change the ending that Yinglian fell into the Xue family and could not escape, but she found that she really underestimated Zhen Feng's family.

Before her daughter was lost, because her husband was in front of her to shelter her from the wind and rain, Zhen Feng's cognition of world affairs was still relatively naïve, but after her daughter was abducted, her home was fired, her biological father was unreliable, and after her husband became a monk, she had a deep understanding of the cruelty of society.

I know that although there are people like the Lin family in this world, the Xue family will not be kind to her, a lonely old woman who has no background and backing.

Originally, after Zhen Feng's family knew that Yinglian was in the Xue family, she learned that Yinglian fell into the Xue family, she had no choice, she wanted to fight alone, thinking that she would give up her life, and it was a big deal to die with her daughter, and go to the Xue family. But Lin Jin pointed out to her and told her that her husband and Zhen Tiren, the president of Jinling, were of the same clan, and it was best to go to Zhen Tiren to ask for a handwritten letter before letting her go to Xue's house.

Because Yinglian is related to the murder case of Xue Pan, in Lin Jin's opinion, the Xue family will not return Yinglian to Zhen Feng's family no matter what, and even if she comes to the door, the Xue family may not be willing to admit that Yinglian is her daughter and will not let her see her. She took Zhen Tiren's handwritten letter to the Xue family, with the relationship between the Zhen family and the Jia family, as well as the status of the Zhen family in the court, the Xue family should not stop Zhen Feng and Yinglian, the mother and daughter, from recognizing each other.

Lin Jin's plan can't be said to be bad, but for Zhen Feng's family, it is not enough for the mother and daughter to recognize each other, and she also wants to take Yinglian away from the Xue family. Therefore, after she got Zhen Tiren's handwritten letter, she did not put this letter on the Xue family as Lin Jin thought, but contacted the concubine Zhen of the fifth prince, Prince Zhongxiao, through it.

The Jinling Zhen family relied on women's nepotism. At first, it was because Zhen Tiren's mother was the nurse of the emperor, and later his sister entered the harem of the emperor, with the affection between his mother and the emperor, as well as her insight into the emperor's thoughts, she was soon named a concubine and gave birth to five princes, and she was favored for a while.

The five princes who were named the Prince of Loyalty and Filial Piety used to be one of the popular candidates for succession, after tasting the sweetness of relying on women to make a fortune, how could the Zhen family let go of the five princes who may be the next emperor, therefore, one of the daughters of the Zhen family was sent to the side of the five princes, and after winning the favor of the five princes, not only became the side concubine second only to the concubine, but also suppressed the concubine by virtue of the relationship between the five princes and the Zhen family.

As the old saying goes, "Wealth does not return to the hometown, such as brocade clothes walking at night", although Concubine Zhen was proud, but her show-off could not be shown in front of the Zhen family, and the appearance of Zhen Feng's satisfied her psychology, and Zhen Feng's language was elegant and interesting, and she was very comfortable with her; In addition, although she did have the intention of flattering her in her words, but in her words and deeds, she felt that Zhen Feng's flattery was the kind of normal interpersonal communication, not the kind of flattery she was used to, and Zhen Feng's dealings with her never asked for her, so originally Concubine Zhen just regarded Zhen Feng's family as a lonely old woman of the same clan who came to fight the autumn breeze, and then slowly interacted with her with the meaning of treating her as a relative.

When Zhen Feng's family tried their best to please Concubine Zhen, they did not forget to inquire about the news of the Xue family. After she finally brought the Xue family over, and confirmed that the girl named Xiangling of the Xue family was indeed her daughter Yinglian through the Jia family's exposed sieve, she began to think about how to use the power of Concubine Zhen to get her daughter out of the Xue family.

The women of this era, most of whom have a bit of status, do not go out of the door, and do not step out of the second door, and the maids who work in their homes are naturally the same. Although Xiangling is just a girl bought by the Xue family, the Xue family prides itself on being a famous family, so she refuses to let her own girl go out easily, and Xiangling's body is also related to the Xue Pan murder case, so when the Xue family first arrived at Jia's house, Aunt Xue looked at Xiangling very strictly, don't say go out, even out of Lixiangyuan, come to Jia's side, she is not allowed. In this way, Zhen Feng's family couldn't see Yinglian, which invisibly increased the difficulty of rescuing her from the Xue family.
