The snow melts in spring and winter, everything recovers, and the capital, which has been suppressed by the cold winter for several months, is lively again.

The eighth day of February is the 60th birthday of the old lady of Jinyang Hou, and the Jinyang Hou Mansion held an unprecedentedly lively birthday banquet, and the invited guests were all well-known people in Beijing. There were also some people who were not invited, and they also came to pay their respects with gifts, and the congratulatory gifts were accepted and they could not enter the gate of the Marquis of Jinyang.

The Jiang family also received an invitation from the Marquis of Jinyang.

It stands to reason that the Jiang family is not qualified enough to go to the Hou Mansion to attend the birthday banquet, but because of Zhang Yuanqing, the Taifu, and Jiang Yucheng, the celebrity around Emperor Xianqing, the Jinyang Hou Mansion has already sent an invitation to the Jiang family.

In the same situation as the Jiang family, there is also the Ling family, Ling Jiming and Fan Jin are also invited.

It all started with the Nine Creeks Rebellion five years ago.

Five years ago, Jiang Yucheng and Ling Jiming went to Jiuxi to investigate the case of the loss of treasury silver, but they accidentally discovered that Hu Wenyao, the governor of Jiuxi, secretly set up a private barracks.

In order to investigate the private barracks, they experienced the danger of being chased and killed, and fell into the cold pool, and were later rescued by the commander of Prince Gong's mansion, and finally returned to the capital after a lot of hardships, and reported Hou Bing's confession and the location of the private barracks to Emperor Xianqing.

Emperor Xianqing ordered Wu Xiao Marquis Fu Yunji to go to Jiuxi to investigate, which lasted more than half a year, and found out a rebel king led by Hu Wenyao, the governor of Jiuxi.

Hu Wenyao received the favor of the rebel king when he was young, and after the rebel king was executed by the first emperor, there was an illegitimate son who was left behind and was not found, and he escaped by luck.

The illegitimate mother of the rebel king is a prostitute, who was favored by the drunken king of the rebel king, and in order to climb the rebel king, he did not hesitate to break the rules and secretly changed the shunzi soup, and gave birth to a son after being pregnant in October.

After the prostitute gave birth to a son, she went to the rebel king with the child that was not yet a month old. At that time, the rebel king was still the prince of the first emperor, and there were a group of wives and concubines at home, and a large number of children from the concubines. He regarded the son of a prostitute as a disgrace, and he would not recognize him.

originally wanted to solve the mother and son secretly, but in the end for some reason they changed their minds and placed them in a newly purchased house, sending someone to send some money and food every month. The prostitute and his son remained in the house for several years, until they were put to death for rebellion.

After the death of the rebel king, none of the wives and concubines of the rebel king survived, and the prostitute was frightened, and hurriedly left the capital with his son and went to his friend who was in the Qinglou.

The prostitute's friend was Wu Zhilin's biological mother, who was in a hot fight with Hu Wenyao at that time and gave birth to a son. The rebel king was kind to Hu Wenyao, and when Hu Wenyao learned that the rebel king still had a bloodline alive, he raised the child with his illegitimate son.

At first, he only had the idea of repaying his kindness, but after more than ten years of ups and downs in the officialdom, he thought that he was not talented and was always suppressed, so he had the idea of supporting the new master. Nine Creeks is where their power originated.

Who knew that Emperor Xianqing didn't give them a chance at all, after Fu Yun gathered in Jiuxi, it took half a year to wipe them out, Hu Wenyao and his subordinates were escorted into Beijing, and the blood of the rebel king was secretly executed.

When it came to rewarding meritorious deeds, Wu Xiaohou Fu Yunji won the first merit, Jiang Yucheng followed, and Ling Jiming followed Jiang Yucheng.

Jiang Yucheng was promoted to a bachelor from the Sipin Hanlin Academy, and Ling Jiming was promoted to a member of the Wupin Criminal Department.

Jiang Yucheng, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, had more opportunities to show his face in front of Emperor Xianqing, and gradually won the attention of Emperor Xianqing and became a celebrity in front of the emperor.

Jiang Yucheng was promoted, and he also asked for a decree for his mother and wife, and Jiang's mother and Yan Niang now have a decree.

There were many people at the birthday banquet in the Marquis of Jinyang, Yan Niang brought her daughter Manman and her twin sons to the banquet, and the younger son stayed at home to be taken care of by Jiang's mother.

Man Man is thirteen years old this year, which is the age of looking at others, and Yan Niang has taken her with her when she goes out recently. If there is a suitable one, it can be decided first.

Manman didn't know what her mother was thinking, she felt that she was still young and was not in a hurry to get married. After Yan Niang led her to meet the old lady of Jinyang Hou, she went out with Zhang Qiongzhi to find other little sisters she knew.

Heinz looked at the figure of the two walking away, and said: "Our family Qiongzhi has finally opened up in the past few years, if it is still like when she was a child, I don't want her to stay with your family." ”

After so many years of getting along, Yan Niang also knows Heinz's temperament, and her mind is not bad, but she always wants to compare herself with others.

She smiled and said, "The bigger the Qiong branch, the quieter it is, unlike the monkey in my family, who is naughty and tight." ”

"That's the truth, and I don't look at the identity of my Qiongzhi." Heinz was a little proud. Her family Qiongzhi was born in a scholarly family, and she has been studying with her grandfather since she was a child.

Mrs. Guo saw that her tail was about to reach the sky, and she was afraid that she would say something inappropriate, so she hurriedly interrupted: "Your Qiongying is also ten years old, and it is time to bring it out for the ladies of the family to see." ”

Mrs. Guo's Qiong Ying is Heinz's second daughter, she is cute and smart, but Heinz just doesn't like her.

Hearing Mrs. Guo mention her at this moment, Heinz immediately shut up, and the smile on his face faded a little.

Yan Niang and Mrs. Guo glanced at each other, and they both saw helplessness on each other's faces.

Seeing that the atmosphere froze, Yan Niang changed the topic and said, "Red Sakura is about to give birth, has my sister-in-law been to see her recently?" ”

"The delivery date is at the end of the month, and I plan to go to Wenfu tomorrow." Speaking of her daughter, Mrs. Guo had a smile on her face, "If you are free, go together." ”

Heinz waved his hand and said, "I'm not free, I'm going to take Qiongzhi back to my parents' house tomorrow." ”

Mrs. Guo looked at Yan Niang again, and Yan Niang nodded, "I'm free tomorrow, so I'll accompany my sister-in-law then." ”

After listening to Yan Niang's words, Heinz said again: "I don't understand, the old lady of the Wen family is not a man-eating monster, why does my sister-in-law have to find someone to accompany her every time she goes to see the red cherry blossoms." ”

Mrs. Guo was a little weak, "Somehow, every time I meet her eyes, I am very scared." ”

Heinz said: "It's just that I've lived a little longer, so what's there to be afraid of." ”

Mrs. Guo sighed helplessly and stopped talking.

Unlike Heinz's disapproval and Mrs. Guo's fear and apprehension, Yan Niang always felt a little disobedient when she thought of Wen Lao Taijun's face.

Some people who know Wen Lao Taijun say that she is kind and amiable, and after seeing her a few times, there is always a feeling that she can't speak.

At this time, a woman wearing an orange and red auspicious cloud skirt walked over, and Yan Niang was puzzled: "Sister Xu went out for a trip, why did she change her clothes?" ”

This woman is Xu, the wife of the Guozi priest Yu Youhe, and Mrs. Guo has always been friends, and after Mrs. Guo introduced Yan Nianghe to her, Xu and Yan Niang became friends at first sight.

Hearing this, Xu sat down and said unhappily: "It's really unlucky today, I met my sister-in-law, not only was she ridiculed, but also soiled the original clothes." ”

Heinz frowned and said: "Your sister-in-law is too arrogant, relying on her daughter to give birth to the only son for the prince, she really treats herself as the prince's mother-in-law, it's really shameless." ”

Mrs. Guo tugged at her sleeve, "What kind of occasion is this, don't mention a word that shouldn't be said." ”

Heinz knew that he was speechless, so he quickly shut up, but he looked down on Xiao Xu's style in his heart.

After the prince married a wife and took a concubine five years ago, he only had a daughter in five years. Emperor Xianqing was anxious to hold his grandson, and the year before last he conducted a small election, and the daughter of Xu's sister-in-law, Xiao Xu, was elected to the East Palace, and gave birth to the prince's eldest son last year.

Emperor Xianqing was overjoyed, and he loved his eldest grandson very much, and seeing that the eldest grandson's biological mother was in a humble position, he not only promoted the position of Xiao Xu's daughter, but also transferred Xiao Xu's husband to the capital as an official.

When Xiao Xu was not married, he was angry with his sister, and he turned over by his daughter, as long as he saw his sister, he would make sarcastic remarks, and Xu couldn't bear it.

She added: "I just went out and met Fan Jin, and I was intimate with my sister-in-law, as if they were two sisters." ”

Heinz asked, "How did they get better?" I remember that a few days ago, Yongyi Hou Shizi impeached Yong Zhengqi, isn't Fan Jin the granddaughter of Yongyi Hou, why did she get involved with Xiao Xu? ”

Saying that, she glanced at Yan Niang, and Yan Niang said, "Don't look at me, I'm not familiar with her." ”

Xu Shi also interjected: "Why else, things gather by like, people by groups, both are not good things, getting together is probably discussing how to make it bad." ”

Mrs. Guo didn't say a word on the side, she was worried about the situation of her eldest daughter Xue Ying at this moment.
