Chapter 355: Everyone Knows
In the spring of the twentieth year of Yongle, after the Yongle Emperor sent Hubu Shangshu to prison, he personally conquered Mobei for the third time, and Zheng married the father and son to the battlefield together.
Yes, five.
Zheng Cong, who has read books for more than ten years, refuses to marry a wife at will, and insists on going to Mongolia, the Jiang family has been on hunger strike for two days, and Gu Yao is taking his children and is persuading in the Hou Mansion at this time. However, the effect is not very significant.
Gu Yao looked at Zheng Zhi and blinked. Zheng Zhi understood and walked out of the door, and Gu Yao immediately took advantage of the reason for changing clothes to find a man. Zheng Zhi didn't go far, standing under the begonia tree in the corner of the west wall, when he saw Gu Yao coming out, he asked straight to the point: "What method do you have?" β
"I took the children with my mother and starvedβ"
"What a bad idea." didn't want to think about it, Zheng Zhi directly refused. Just kidding, is it easy for a daughter-in-law to raise some meat! Also, he is Qiqi, a girl, who is hungry, Gu Yao, who is a mother, is not distressed, and his liver hurts as a father.
However, the face must not ignore the life and death of the old lady.
Zheng Zhi gave the reason for his objection: "Didn't that give my mother a bargaining chip, so that she had a few more people to force the fourth brother?" β
While the couple was discussing, Zheng Shizi got the news and rushed over. When he entered the door, he saluted the Jiang family first, and the Jiang family was so frightened that he hurriedly stood up to avoid it. She hadn't completely gotten out of the way, but only heard Zheng Shizi say: "You can enter the camp when you are sixteen years old, and the fourth brother meets the regulations." If it is the fourth brother, the mother is still better fed. After all, I know best what a motherless child looks like. β
You didn't die back then, what's the fuss about now? Shizi didn't say it, the meaning in his eyes was very clear, it was for the Jiang family. After saying what he meant, Zheng Shizi directly retired: "I still have something to do, my mother is at her own convenience." β
Jiang got up to send him off, but he couldn't make the trip because he hadn't eaten for many days. Zheng Zhi went to see off Zheng Shizi, but was directly dragged away by Shizi. After a while, Mrs. Shizi sent a message: "I haven't seen the third lady and the child for many days, and Mrs. Shizi asked the third lady to take the fourth girl and the three young masters to the east courtyard." β
You do yours, the family does not accompany you, and the two sons of the world think so and do the same.
Yes, Gu Yao coquettishly said as soon as he saw Mrs. Shizi: "It feels so good to have someone covered, sister-in-law, I really like you so much, I like Shuntianfu so much!" β
"Don't make a fuss. I really have something to do with you, it's a trivial matter for the old lady, mainly for the second child. β
"What's wrong with the second sister-in-law? No, the second sister-in-law's affairs are smaller than those of the mother. β
Mrs. Shizi glared at Gu Yao and scolded her for telling the truth, and she had already told the matter in her mouth. The parting is imminent, the second master Zheng Yong, has been fooling around with his second cousin and his concubine for the past few days, and regards his wife Zhang as nothing, and he can be a bastard. At the same time, the twin daughters were also sent to Aunt Zhang.
Gu Yao listened and guessed: "Before leaving, he wants to let Aunt Xiao Zhang get pregnant, so that she can stay for a while?" β
Mrs. Shizi bowed her head and said, "I don't rule out this possibility, after all, I thought so at first." β
"Initially?" Gu Yao grabbed the key words.
"Hmm." After a pause, Mrs. Shizi whispered in Gu Yao's ear and said, "I think now, he may want to change his wife, but he refuses to do it himself, so he let the two sisters fight among themselves, and he is proud." β
That's vicious! It is not only Zheng Yong who is vicious, but also the son. Yes, this sinister human speculation is 100% from Zheng Shizi. But Zheng Zhi listened to his brother, and Gu Yao didn't have the courage to get along with the prince, so he hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law is looking for me, is it for me to come back and live, and keep an eye on them?" β
Mrs. Shizi smiled and said, "How could I be so unreasonable? I want to borrow someone from you, the one in your hand called the ink needle. β
As soon as he heard that he wanted an ink needle, Gu Yao immediately answered: "Sister-in-law, it's not that I'm stingy and don't borrow. The third master said that he was not good at learning, and sent him away again, and I haven't seen anyone for a year. β
"I know he's not there."
And you're still talking?
When Gu Yao was puzzled, Mrs. Shizi said the reason for the second half: "Isn't the junior sister of the ink needle by your side, borrow me for a few days." β
"Which is his junior sister?"
Mrs. Shizi didn't look like a fake, so she asked, "You really don't know?" Didn't the third child just give you a maid, and you didn't even take a name. β
Gu Yao: ......
The new fifteen-year-old girl who is as tall as seventy-seven is this identity? Looking at the little girl, Gu Yao had a feeling of using child labor, so he only asked her to learn the rules, and did not assign work. After digesting it for a while, Gu Yao came back to his senses and responded: "Okay, I'll give her a name when I go back and send her here." β
After finishing talking about business, the two of them gossiped for a while, and after learning that the Jiang family had started to eat, Gu Yao left with the child. The next day, half a month after arriving at Jing'anbo Mansion, he had his own name dyed with ink, and he knocked on the back door of the Hou Mansion early in the morning, entered the mansion, and listened to the dispatch of Mrs. Hou Shizi.
Three days later, five fathers and sons of the Zheng family went north with the holy car.
On the same day, Zhang called his sister to rub it, but he was dizzy by his sister, and by the time the doctor arrived, he was already out of breath. The Imperial Physician is not a man, but he can speculate on some causes of death.
"Bleeding and dying, Second Mrs. Zheng, she is very angry on weekdays, but?"
"Yes." All the maids in the second room said in unison.
There were a few more questions, and the maidservant's answers all verified all the guesses of the imperial doctor, and defined the death of the second lady as the expansion of the blood and the death of hemorrhage. Seeing the imperial doctor leave, Mrs. Shizi's eyes lit up, and she instructed Mo Ran: "Find a way to erase all traces." β
In the world, the human body, some people will have a rash when they eat crabs, and some people will vomit when they eat eggs. Zhang's is to eat apricots is a big fire, there are no apricots in this season, but there are candied fruits made of apricots. Zhang's should avoid eating, but he has often eaten it in the past six months, and Zhang's own sister made it in order to rub his sister.
Basically, without Zheng Yong's return, Mrs. Shizi will know the conclusion, it's hard to say whether Aunt Zhang can stay alive, the Zheng family will definitely not be able to stay. These are trivial matters, the important thing is that the Zhang family has gone, so Zheng Yong's remarriage is a sure thing. If Zheng returns with this meritorious service, and he has no son-in-law, it is easy to remarry a high-ranking daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Shizi, lost in thought.
In September, the Yongle Emperor went on his third personal expedition, and he still returned victoriously, and there were no casualties. Correspondingly, the whipping did not hurt the muscles and bones.
The father and son of the Zheng family are safe, and Zheng Yong, who returned home, under the puzzled eyes of his father and brother, ignored Aunt Zhang's obstruction, thoroughly investigated the cause of his wife's death, and pointed the arrow at Aunt Zhang. Aunt Zhang flatly denied it, and only said that the deceased Zhang framed herself. It's a pity that Zhang's eyes have been closed for half a year, and no one testifies for her. The "kind" Zheng Yong only put Aunt Zhang back to the Zhang family and was disposed of by the Zhang family.
In this way, marrying Zheng Yong, who has no wife and concubine and no son, is more eager than Zheng Cong, a marriageable son. There are suitable candidates in the family, and they have been trying to find out the news, Tang Xiangxiang was also begged, so she spoke to Gu Yao.
Gu Yao said: "I'll tell you the truth, Zheng Er is ruthless." β
The ink dye can't erase the traces, and when the prince was in a hurry, Gu Yao persuaded her to expose her shortcomings, poke out the matter of the Zheng family's second room, and exaggerate the status of Aunt Zhang, the mother-in-law, so that the girls were discouraged and cut off Zheng Yong's back road.
Tang Xiangxiang listened, sighed a few words, and never mentioned who he was going to propose. She didn't say anything, but Gu Yao had something to say, Gu Yao sat up straight and asked sternly: "I heard that Concubine Taisun is emotionally unstable?" β
Concubine Taisun racked her brains to conceive a child, but she gave birth to another daughter, so it's no wonder that she can be in a good mood.
