The Kong family, Zhong Jinxiu, who is the servant of the Ministry of Rites, knows a little, that Kong Sheng is the son of the concubine of the servant of the Confucian family, but because the concubine is favored, he is extremely pampered and lawless in the Kong family.

The person Shen Yinge married was the concubine of the Confucian family, Kong Partridge, who had not yet come to Kyoto to serve, but was a minor official outside, and now he came to the capital after being promoted.

Originally, he didn't have anything to do with this promotion, but Shen Mingze deliberately used a way to let them return to Beijing, but ah, these people just don't know how to be interested.

Shen Mingze wanted Zhong Jinxiu to go to Kong's house, and took Yin Ge and her daughter Kong Wenwen home on the grounds that Yin was seriously ill.

Zhong Jinxiu went to Kong's house, and as soon as he picked up the people, Kong Sheng came back, his beaten nose and face were swollen, and he looked very glorious.

The little concubine screamed one baby after another, she was really distressed to death.

After knowing that the Shen family sent someone to beat her, the little concubine was immediately unhappy, and directly asked Master Kong to come back and discuss countermeasures.

It is not unreasonable for this little concubine to be favored for so many years, and in a few words, Master Kong, who said it in a few words, smoked in his nostrils, and then he had to go to the Shen family to theorize.

When the Shen family heard that Shen Mingze had beaten someone, they didn't believe it, and directly asked people to go to Shen Mingze to come back.

The Yin family beckoned the in-laws to sit down first, and then said: "There must be some misunderstanding in this, in-laws, you sit down first, let that stinky boy come back in a while, and explain to you." ”

"Hmph..."Kong Shang remembered the appearance of his son being beaten, and his heart hurt, "We are relatives, he beat people indiscriminately, how can we become relatives?" ”

These words were serious, and Yin was worried in his heart.

"If you don't give an explanation, the daughter of your Shen family, you bring it back by yourself, let's not do it."

Zhong Jinxiu came over and heard the words of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the corners of his mouth opened slightly, and said, "Since this relative can't do it, then don't do it." ”

The Yin family didn't want his daughter to be reconciled in his heart, and said unhappily: "Jinxiu, there is no place for you to speak here." ”

"Mother, don't you know, today I was eating out with my cousin, and the Kong family opened and closed her mouth and said that the Kong family didn't look down on my second sister and wanted to divorce her, I didn't believe it at first, but now listening to Master Kong's words, their family really has the intention to divorce my second sister, since this is the case, we don't force it, you have to know, now our daughter is not worried about getting married."

Yin frowned and said, "Is there really such a thing?" ”

"My cousin and I heard it with our own ears, and not only did we hear it, but when he spoke, the whole Fumanlou people heard it."

Zhong Jinxiu looked at Kong Shang slightly, his eyes were cold, and said: "Master Kong, go back, our Shen family will not give up on this matter, our second sister has already been taken back, as for the second son of the Kong family?" Hmph..."

Kong Shang said: "Impossible... You've beaten someone, and it's justified. ”

Zhong Jinxiu snorted lightly, and said with a gloomy face: "Master Kong, let's go back and talk to your second son, after this hour, he will be locked up in a cell." The charges have been almost collected, whether it is exile or beheading..."

Master Kong looked at the woman in front of him, beautiful and noble, but the words he said made people shudder.

He realized what he had said wrong.

Shen Family...

After Master Nakong left, Yin asked, "What about your second sister?" ”

Zhong Jinxiu shook her head and said, "My cousin sent my second sister out for a walk, after all... When such a big thing happened, the second sister must be very sad. ”

"You... You, I am her mother, and I haven't said that I will leave, so why should you two be? ”

Zhong Jinxiu bowed his head slightly and did not refute.

Shen Mingze knew that his mother did not agree, and he might even send the second sister back on the same day, so he hid the person.

It was really prescient.

But the matter still reached the ears of the old man, who sat in front of the hall and summoned his two sons and daughters-in-law to discuss the matter.

At that time, Shen Mingze had already returned.

Lord Yajun said: "Mingze should have arrangements for this matter." ”

Shen Mingze bowed his head and said, "Well, the Kong family deceives people too much. ”

In one sentence, it has already been stated that he will pursue it to the end

Shen Congwen is now a member of the Cabinet, and he is very aware of the status of the Shen family today.

"Mingze is right, our girl is insulted like this, you can't just forget it. That kid said in front of many people that he was not going to sing, hum, I really don't know how thick the sky is. ”

The Yin clan was worried that the chant would be suspended, and he was reluctant to go this far.

Lord Yajun knew that this matter would definitely make a fuss, so she comforted the Yin family and said, "Don't worry, the Kong family will definitely come to apologize, and even carry a sedan chair to invite our girl back." Only this time, the Kong family no longer dared to underestimate our family's singing. ”

Early the next morning, Zhong Jinxiu inquired about the news that Kong Sheng was detained, and Shen Mingze got evidence from somewhere, accusing him of robbing people's daughters, aiding and imperding iniquity, and being arrogant and rude.

As for Kong Sheng, he was also impeached by the imperial history, saying that he had no way to discipline him and committed murder. Spoiling concubines and killing wives...

didn't mention the greasy thing he had with the Shen family.

However, Kong Sheng knew that this matter was done by the Shen family.

When he got out of the court, he hurriedly stopped Shen Congwen, but Shen Congwen snorted lightly and ignored him.

He had to stop Shen Zhiwen, his family.

"In-laws, my son knows that he is wrong, can you please raise your noble hand and let him go..."

Before Shen Zhiwen could say anything, Shen Mingze, who was following behind, said: "What Master Kong said, your son robbed the people's daughters and was arrogant, what does it have to do with us?" We didn't let you go..."

"Lord Shen is angry, this matter is indeed our family's fault, and I hope you will raise your noble hand."

Shen Mingze snorted lightly, ignored it, and pulled his father and said, "Dad, mother is still waiting for us to go home for dinner, let's go back quickly." ”

Master Kong jumped to his feet in the back, if it weren't for the courtiers watching from the side, he would have wanted to kneel in front of others and apologize.

He took a step back and met his boss, the official secretary.

"Your Excellency, slow down, I have something to ask you."

Feng En, the secretary of the ministry, glanced at Kong Shang and said, "Master Kong, there is something you have to understand. The official secretary was slow, and the anxious Master Kong hurriedly said:

"Your Excellency, please speak."

"Before you were transferred to Beijing, I originally had a suitable servant to recommend, but because Lord Shen directly preceded you on the emperor, this is why you are now."

"My lord, this—" Why didn't you say that.

"I always thought you knew, if I met such a good in-law, I should have picked up her daughter and offered it, you are good, conniving at your concubine to bully her, and let your son slander her." He paused, "The daughter of the Shen family will be the crown princess in the future, if you say that her sister is not good, can this King of Jin agree?" Can the emperor agree? ”

"What should the subordinates do?"

"If you don't know what to do, then you, the squire, can do it."

Master Kong: "......"

Kong Shang was very anxious in his heart, and when he went back, he entered his mother's yard, and when he mentioned this, Mrs. Kong couldn't help but scold her son.

"Shen Yinge is such a good girl, gentle and considerate, filial piety to me, an old lady, how can you ...... You've eaten all this brain, haven't you? ”

"My son didn't expect this, my son really regrets it now, and I can't wait to eat your kid alive, but the most important thing now is how to solve this matter."

The old lady is also in a hurry.

"It would be much easier if the chant was here, so that I could still plead for mercy."

The old lady was silent for a while, and asked, "What about the partridge, let him go and pick up his daughter-in-law back,"

Kong Shang had already scolded his eldest son, and even scolded the little concubine, how could she let people go.

After a while, Kong Partridge came and said, "I've been to the Shen family, but Yin Ge is not in the Shen family." She was hidden by my brother-in-law, saying that this is not a piece of paper, and they don't mind it. ”

"You're useless..."

Kong Shang was so angry that he was about to step forward to beat his son, but the old lady scolded angrily: "What does this matter have to do with Partridge, what do you do to beat him, if he is injured, how can the Shen family wish you?" ”

"I can't fight my own son yet?"

"No, he is not a son now, but the son-in-law of the Shen family."

Kong Shang didn't understand, but the old lady was a person who came over and understood the truth.

In this way, I can better understand what the Shen family intends to do this.

"If you want to gain a foothold in the capital, dispose of your little concubine."

"Mother? What does this have to do with her? ”

"Hmph, your son is in prison now, he can't get angry, she is his mother, let's be angry with others instead of his son."

This official position and a woman, Master Kong naturally knows how to choose?

After dealing with this matter, the old lady of the Kong family led her eldest grandson to the Shen family to pick up her granddaughter-in-law.

The Yin family welcomed Mrs. Kong into the house.

"A few days ago, I heard that my in-laws were sick, and I came back to serve, but now I'm okay?"

Seeing her like this, Yin smiled and said, "It's just a little headache, so that kid is making a big fuss and wants to come back." ”

The old lady said: "This is also the filial piety of this child, when he is at home, he often comes to accompany my wife, our family can marry such a good daughter-in-law, it is really a blessing for the ancestors." ”

Yin was proud in his heart.

"The old lady is polite, this kid, it's very unruly, and I'm tired of the old lady."

When the old lady heard Yin's words, she knew in her heart that she didn't want her daughter to leave.

"It's said that her mother-in-law left early, as a daughter-in-law, she should have been in charge of this family, but what can I do... It's all because I didn't teach it well, and I hope that my mother-in-law won't laugh at it, that little concubine taught Sheng'er badly, and the family has already beaten twenty boards and thrown it to another village. ”

Hearing this, Yin immediately had an idea in his heart, and said: "Kong Yu, this child, I am extremely satisfied, Yin Ge often comes back and says that this child was brought up by you, honest and honest. That's it, this kid didn't even participate in the imperial examination twice, and he couldn't win, and I, who was his mother-in-law, were in a hurry, I didn't know it before, but I heard someone say it these days, it turned out that he couldn't buy a good book at home... If you want to buy some good rice paper, you have to talk to the concubine, and in the end, our girl delayed her studies and let the young couple live in separate rooms..."

"How could such a thing be? No, my dear, you're definitely listening. ”

"No, your family's Kong Sheng said it to the outside world, saying that their food and clothing depend on his mother's face... It's all over the outside, don't you know? ”

The old lady's face is not good, although he doesn't care about anything at home, but if he treats his sister-in-law harshly, this is absolutely impossible.

"I thought it was a partridge with a dull brain, but now it doesn't seem to be." Yin Shi paused and said, "Otherwise, I bought a small courtyard for the little couple outside, let them live outside first, you can rest assured that this food and clothing is enough, the girl in my family can't do anything else, this hand of Shu embroidery, can earn silver, naturally there will be no reason why the Kong family can't live without it." ”

Mrs. Kong didn't expect the Shen family to directly split up?

This...

Mrs. Kong could not agree.

But the Yin clan finally replied: "Anyway, Master Kong is going to be transferred to other places, and this son is going to take the imperial examination, so he can't run back and forth." ”

One sentence directly set the path of Master Kong.

Mrs. Kong went back and directly told Kong Shang the original words, saying, "Their family wants partridges." And you're going to be transferred..."

"They can't..."

"They can..."The Shen family is no longer the Shen family it used to be.

"The most important thing now is to find Shen Yingge, go quickly... Partridge, this is about your father's future and your future. ”

Kong Partridge naturally understood, but he didn't want to look for it in his selfish heart, he was pinched by the little concubine in the Kong family all day long, and even his daughter-in-law suffered with him, and it was just before, but now the Shen family can stand up for her.

A person as gentle as his own daughter-in-law should not suffer with him.

"Your mother-in-law said that her one-handed Shu embroidery is worth a fortune, do you know about this?"

Kong Partridge nodded, and the old lady sighed and said, "That's it, she has worked hard to serve you and take care of the children all these years." ”

The daughters of the Shen family are rising, and naturally there are many people who put gold for them, but also for the future crown princess.

"Partridge... Grandmother decided that after this matter was over, let your daughter-in-law take charge of the house. ”

"Grandmother?"

"Partridge, if your father is transferred outside, it will be difficult to be transferred back in this life, you have to think about the overall situation. Our family depends on you..."

Kong Lu naturally understood, and after weighing the pros and cons, he said, "I'm going to Shen's house." ”

Kong Ming did not go to Shen's house, but walked around the street, did not find his daughter, Shen Mingze was upstairs in a teahouse, looked at Kong Yuan's behavior, and smiled slightly.

Instructed the dark one: "Three days later, lead him to find my second sister." ”

Always make the Kong family anxious.

Fortunately, this time, his wife not only brought the second sister back, but also the children.

Let the Kong family be in a hurry.

Three days later, Kong Partridge finally found Shen Yinge under the deliberate guidance of the dark one, and Shen Yingge was in the weaving workshop at that time.

Yin Ge has been helping to make embroidery in the past few days, but Shen Mingze deliberately concealed it, not knowing what was happening outside, she heard that something was wrong at home, so she put down the embroidery and hurriedly went back with Kong Lu.

"You're finally back, where have you been all these days?"

Shen Yin said: "I..."

Kong Partridge held his daughter in one hand, pulled the sleeve of Yin Ge with the other, and said:

"My grandson recently needed a set of books, and it cost a hundred taels of silver, so Yin Ge went outside to help others make embroidery work......

This sentence made Kong Shang's face red and white for a while, his son wants books for the imperial examination and his daughter-in-law to earn them, if it is spread out, isn't it a shame to lose a lot of money?

The old lady slapped one hand on the table and said hatefully: "Kong Shang, you let your concubine die, and you will harm my Kong family's sister-in-law in vain." ”

"Yes."
