Three hundred and forty-seven: Marriage
In addition to these, there are also several secret accounts, which record in detail the courtiers and officials who have close contacts with the Lin family, those who give gifts, those who give beautiful women, those who ask for help from Taiwei Lin and King Heng, and even those who buy officials and positions, and almost half of the students on the apricot list rely on the degrees bought by Taiwei Lin.
The price is clearly marked with 500 taels, 300 taels for Xiucai, 800 taels for people to be raised, and 1,200 taels for the champion. The position of other officials below the fifth grade has hundreds of taels and thousands of taels, and there are tens of thousands of taels of officials above the fifth grade, only last year, Lin Taiwei made a lot of money in the matter of selling officials, and there were 130,000 taels of silver and 53,000 taels of gold, which does not include the rare treasures of bonsai calligraphy and painting in various places, the embroidered jade of agate, the coral, and even the bedclothes worn by the emperor of the previous dynasty, somehow it came to the hands of Lin Taiwei, and he wore that every day when he slept.
Through these secret accounts, one of them was all arrested by the emperor, and all the private properties of Lin Taiwei and King Heng were confiscated.
On the second day of the mutiny, the streets of Xunjing were still silent, the prosperity and bustle of the past were all gone, there were corpses and blood everywhere, no one dared to go out again, and the ordinary vegetable sellers and firewood were no longer there, only the occasional soldiers were left cleaning the wreckage.
After another three days, the blood on the street was washed away for days, and two heavy rains fell in the middle, which washed away the sultry heat that had been pouring away, Su Jinyao and Mei Zhenglin lived in Su's house for a few days, and the Mei family personally came to pick up their son and daughter-in-law and took them home safely.
At this time, people began to come out of the street, but everyone has changed, the greeting of the vegetable seller is quiet, and they dare not scold when they are scratched when walking, and the usually noisy main street is crowded with people now, and now there are only a few firewood pickers left.
Su Yao finally knew everything that was happening outside, many civil and military officials were dismissed, imprisoned, beheaded, and even directly raided their homes, and children under the age of fifteen were all used as servants.
Lin Taiwei, Lin Dehui, and Lin Man were arrested and put in prison, saying that they were beheaded after the autumn, and a series of things related to their forced palace, none of them ran away, Xiao Haifeng, Sun Yao, Luo Yunzhou and others were all exiled thousands of miles away, Sun Liying and others were used to being high in the past, and they couldn't accept it as slaves for a while, Sun Liying even made a stupid thing about hanging herself, but fortunately she was saved by her mother.
There are a lot of people involved this time, and the magnates in the search capital have almost undergone a major reform, and a group of people have been promoted again, such as Su Yao, who has been promoted to an official position again.
The emperor learned through the eyeliner arranged by Concubine Lin Xian's side that Princess Chaodan was not of royal blood, but that Concubine Lin Xian borrowed the seed of a guard to conceive Princess Chaodan in order to give birth to a son, which can also explain why the emperor and Princess Chaodan are not similar at all, as a mother, Concubine Lin Xian and Princess Chaodan are not alike.
thought that her younger brother was going to be the emperor, but Princess Chaodan didn't even realize that her grandfather's family had fallen, so she was tied up by Lu Yuanyi and others.
Confusing the royal blood is a big crime to kill the head, the man went to prison, and was beheaded after the autumn, Concubine Lin Xian and Princess Chaodan, Lin Yueci, as well as Mrs. Lin Taiwei and Lin Dehui's wife, etc., there are dozens of men and women, and they can't escape the fate of going to prison, Concubine Lin Xian was also tortured, her whole face was scratched, and she couldn't be beaten, and she didn't want to escape from this cage if she didn't die in this life, and the rest of the remaining female dependents, like Concubine Lin Xian, were only imprisoned in prison until the number of deaths.
The court has a new look, which is a good thing, but those family members are unwilling to be implicated, such as marrying their daughters to the Lin family, or marrying the daughters of the Lin family, and having a good relationship with Mrs. Lin Taiwei, everyone is afraid of being implicated, and they are 108,000 miles away from the Lin family, and no one dares to wade into this troubled water.
Xiao Jingjing's sister-in-law is a girl from the Lin family, and she should have ended up with the daughter of the Lin family, that is, she was imprisoned, but she married the Xiao family after all, as the saying goes, marrying a chicken and a dog and marrying a dog can only be exiled to be a slave with the Xiao family, but the emperor still relented in the end, and ordered her to go down and let her leave after giving birth, after all, the child is innocent.
"It's a real delight!" The smile on Su Yao's face has always been hanging, and the corners of his mouth are always curled, and it can be seen that he is really happy, "The rebellious ministers and thieves have all been imprisoned, and His Royal Highness King Yu has been straightened into the crown prince again, this is a great thing!" Our Su family has recently opened a warehouse to release grain, and those who have died in the family and who don't have enough grain and grass can come to our house to get a few catties of rice! ”
"Father is so happy." Su Yunyao said on the side, "My daughter felt that the emperor didn't really believe it, the Lin family is really kind and harmless, and it must be guarded against, look at it, it's really said by my daughter!" ”
"You're right." The depression in the old lady's heart eased out, and she was no longer depressed, and said with a smile, "Our family rhyme is amazing, I dare to guess what the emperor is thinking." ”
"Eh, grandmother, don't talk nonsense, let outsiders hear and cut off your granddaughter's head again."
"Don't be afraid, it's all your own family here, who will say it." The old lady blew on the hot tea, "It's sunny outside, it's a good day, my old woman has been bored these days, it's time to go out for a walk!" ”
Su Hui's family also came, Su Qinyao was still a little scared, and looked east and west from time to time, Su Yingwan and He Nianning also came, He Nianning's belly is now big and scary, but it is bigger than an ordinary woman's belly, Su Qingyao and Su Ying'an are also back, and Su Yingchen is also back with Ji Jun.
Su Jingyao brought back all the daughters and sons, one was tired of being in the old lady's arms, and the other was drooling for the old lady to hug, the old lady was too busy to hug her, looking at this as if she was far away from that, and she was not happy to hug that one.
Xiao Shunxi was also brought back by Su Peiyao, at this time Xiao Shunxi had already taken the lead, although she couldn't say a complete sentence, but with Su Peiyao's perseverance, she could say the words mother and father.
"Oh my Xi'er!" The old lady took Xiao Shunxi in her arms, it was really Xiao Ling who loved her daughter, and raised Xiao Shunxi to be white and fat, living like a big meat ball, and the old lady couldn't hold it for a while, but she didn't want to let go, so she asked Mama Zhou to come over and hold her for her, and let Bihe Qinglian hold it for a while from time to time.
"Grandmother, He's about to give birth, and the doctor said it was almost the end of this month." Su Yingkuan said.
The old lady never let go of the smile on her face since she saw these children, she first looked at He Nianning's stomach, and then at Su Yingkuan, who was about to become a father, and said with relief, "Okay!" Born early and lightly, this child is a blessed one, but he has to be born before the execution of the gang of rebellious ministers and thieves, otherwise it will be terrible to stain their bad luck. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed.
He Nianning has a big belly, and his face is getting more and more rounded, more than three or four times fatter than before pregnancy, and his double chin is out, which is really not like other pregnant women.
The doctor said that everyone has different images, some people have fat bodies, some people have fat faces, and some people are pregnant but still don't have much meat on their legs, which are all different, just like the children born are not the same.
"I heard that Brother Tao is also going to be a father, our family is really blessed!" The old lady smiled and said, "One by one, they have blossomed and borne fruit, and when you marry off a few of you unconscious little girls, our family will be completely safe!" ”
"Look at the grandmother you said, if the granddaughters really get married, you will be bored, and then you will be looking forward to it day and night, looking forward to our return!"
The old lady nodded Su Yunyao's forehead, "Yes, yes, I look forward to you quarreling with your uncle, and then going back to your parents' house to live for a few days, right?" My old woman doesn't want you juniors to be better, that's not possible, I'd rather be bored than affect your good life. ”
As soon as the words fell, Qiu Li trotted in outside, his breath was uneven, and he couldn't wait for the old lady to ask him before he could barely say the whole thing, "In the palace... The chamberlain has come to the palace, and he is in the front hall at this time! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and for some reason they all went, and even He Nianning passed with a stomach.
The words written in the holy decree surprised everyone even more.
It turned out that Lu Yuanyi had made a great contribution, and the emperor wanted to reward him some, but Lu Yuanyi only said that he wanted to marry a wife, and the emperor was overjoyed, after all, this nephew had never mentioned the matter of getting married, and it had to be approved.
After asking whose girl it was, the emperor was not too surprised, he felt that Su Yao, a civil official, had done a good job, was very honest and honest, and his daughter was born to the concubine of the Marquis of Jingyang, so she would not be bad.
The most important thing is that the marriage was approved by the emperor, so you can't just listen to Su Moyao and take back her will, right? Then the emperor is too discredited.
So a holy decree was given to the two of them to marry, and the chamberlain hurried to the Su family to announce the decree.
Su Moyao didn't react at all, and she could remember the situation that day for many years afterward. When the chamberlain said that the emperor was going to marry the two of them, Su Moyao first closed her eyes suddenly, and then slowly opened them, her breathing seemed to be uneven, one deep and one shallow, the sun seemed to be very big that day, and the surroundings were stuffy, as if she was about to fall to the ground if she took a slow step.
That feeling is not like heat stroke, Su Moyao didn't know what it was like, she only remembered that her sister pulled her sleeve to make her relieved, and she bowed seriously for the first time when she was so old, and then took the holy decree, and listened to the waiter say that the marriage would be completed in a month, and the dowry would arrive later, so that everyone in the Su family was ready to respond.
Everyone got up, Su Yingkuan carefully helped He Nianning up, until the waiter left, Su Moyao was still confused, and after returning to Qinzhuxuan, she asked a few words, for fear that everything in Fang Cai was her dream.
