Chapter 74 Gao Na Handle (2nd Watch)
When the old lady heard this, she hurriedly wiped away her tears and echoed: "Exactly, exactly, second master, the Hou Mansion has always been close to the eldest prince, otherwise, let's go and beg the eldest prince?" No matter how bad it is, go and beg the Sun family? ”
Jiang Hongsheng said with tears in his eyes: "Mother, who can I ask to go at this time?" Isn't that female tiger secretly shooting in the middle palace, it's too late for the eldest prince to avoid suspicion, how can he speak for his uncle? Today is angry, it's useless for anyone to ask for it, and if you don't get it right, you'll get fishy!
The old lady didn't give up and said, "Where are you ...... the cold noble?" ”
"Mother!"
Jiang Hongsheng shook his head and said: "The Han nobles are good friends with the Middle Palace, this matter involves the Middle Palace, how many pairs of eyes are staring at it, and they can't move at this time." In case there is an accident in the Hou Mansion, as long as the Han nobles are still there, maybe there will be a chance to recover in the future. If even the cold nobles fold in, it will be a monstrous disaster! ”
The old lady said in a dumb voice, "How is your uncle's house now?" ”
Jiang Hongsheng sighed mournfully: "Mother, the Hou Mansion is in a mess, and the pillars and Xiangyou and Xiangliang have also been imprisoned. The Zhou family had been raided by the government, and the Xu family was so frightened that he collapsed on the bed, unable to move. ”
The old lady burst into tears, and for a while no one spoke in the room except for crying.
Even Gu was so frightened that he cried.
After a long time, the old lady said sadly: "Son, if you tell your mother the truth, will this matter affect our house?" ”
Jiang Hongsheng's face sank, he barely pulled out a smile, and said cautiously: "Mother, it's hard to say." It's big or small. To put it more seriously, the two tigers are on the same piece of jade, which is tantamount to the double glow of the sun and the moon, and the sign of the previous dynasty, which is a major crime of rebellion. To put it mildly, it is a crime of bullying the king to confuse the real with the false, not to mention the stubble of snatching jade. ”
The old lady turned pale with fright, and her eyes were straight.
Jiang Hong was born in his heart and couldn't bear it. said comfortingly: "Fortunately, we have only been in Beijing for two years, and we have rarely moved around with the Hou Mansion, and my son is conscientious and conscientious in his office, and he never forms a party for personal gain." It stands to reason that it doesn't involve ......."
"My son, I'm afraid I'm afraid that my friends will be punished, it's over, it's all over." The old lady was devastated
Jiang Hongsheng's eyes turned red, he burst into tears, and said in despair: "Mother, everything only depends on the will of God." ”
Mama Qian only felt that her soul was scattered, her heart was broken, she covered her chest, and she couldn't say anything.
This night.
The lights in the study of many high-ranking families in the capital were turned on all night.
How many civil and military officials tossed and turned. Sleepless nights.
And how many people are ghosts.
The crisis is like an undercurrent under the surface of the water, which is about to come out, but it is not triggered, it is surging, and it is entangled. Just wait for the last chance to break out!
……
Early the next morning, Jiang Hongsheng went out of the house as usual.
The old lady cried sadly all night, angry and anxious, and her body was not very good, so she spared everyone from asking for peace, and only let Mama Qian confess. Each room and each hospital has been guarded for a long time, and you are not allowed to go out if you have nothing to do!
The second wife called the big and small housekeepers to her early in the morning, and asked them to restrain their subordinates and be cautious in their words and deeds.
It was rare for the housekeepers of the Jiang Mansion to see the second wife's expression, and they knew that it must be for the affairs of the Hou Mansion, and they did not dare to disobey it. Only the promise is yes. Turning his back only restricts everyone to do their part.
The bloody wind outside has nothing to do with Tingfeng Xuan. Xin Yao had a good night's sleep last night, got up early in the morning, ate breakfast, and walked around the yard twice. Brother Hao walked into the yard with two little short legs.
The two siblings looked at each other and smiled. went to the study, stayed for half a day, if it weren't for Weiyun screaming a few times outside, the sister and brother would have forgotten all about the stubble of lunch.
For three days in a row, Jiang Hongsheng went out early and returned late, running around, with little effect, the old lady was in the inner house, and her heart was even more anxious, and within a few days, she lost a lot of weight.
The broken drums were beaten by everyone, and the walls were pushed by everyone.
Since the Marquis of Annan was imprisoned, the hundred officials were angry when they saw it, but the middle palace did not reveal it, and they all kicked you and I kicked it, and wrote the dirty things that the Hou Annan Mansion bullied men and women in the past, and the people who were fish and flesh were written on the fold.
A few days later, the Son of Heaven's desk, which was more than a foot high, was full of the impeachment of An Nanhou, and the only excerpt that pleaded for An Nanhou was spread out on the desk, and it was obvious that the owner of the desk had just read it.
Before the water temperature had risen, the net had just opened, but the frog jumped out of its own and hit the wall headfirst, bleeding from its head.
The owner of the desk sneered a few times, picked up the pen, and did it overnight.
……
Just when everyone thought that the Marquis of Annan had died for the rest of his life, ten days later, the chamberlain read out a letter from King Ping in public.
As soon as this recital was read, it shocked the government and the opposition.
Subsequently, the Marquis of Annan was cut to the end except for the title, the military power was confiscated, the government was withdrawn, and the people were released from the prison intact.
Zhou Dongliang, Zhou Xiangyou, and Zhou Xiangliang were a hundred blamers, and their flesh and blood were carried back in a blur.
At this point, the monstrous case caused by the fake jade offered by the Marquis of Annan was picked up high and gently put down because of a letter.
Three days later, the Son of Heaven ordered that Yan Song, the king of Ping, would be in charge of the military department from now on.
Jiang Xinyao learned that Yan Sixteen had been promoted, and her eyes showed a fox-like gleam. Then he smiled faintly, and his smile was like a flower.
The old lady knew that her younger brother Zhou Chengkai had only lost his title, and he was safe and sound, and dragged her sick body to recite the Peace Sutra in the small Buddha hall for seven days.
Jiang Hongsheng bowed three times in front of the Bodhisattva for the first time, prepared a heavy car salute, and went to Dufu.
He knew very well that his uncle could save his life this time, and he retreated, and King Ping made great contributions, if it weren't for the thousand-character chapter sprinkled with foreign flowers, bringing out the fact that the queen mother belonged to the tiger, and evoking the Chunhui feelings of the Son of Heaven over his mother, the Marquis of Annan Mansion would be a disaster of raiding the family and destroying the clan. And he will return to his hometown at the least, and at worst he will be dismissed and exiled.
……
The next day, the old lady called Gu to her, said a few words, smiled and took out a few large silver tickets, and stuffed them into Gu's hands. It is only said that the young lady from the second room of the Jiang Mansion is married, and the dowry must be generous, so you must not give the husband's family a look at it.
Gu Shi naturally thanked and thanked, with a grateful and joyful expression!
After the old lady left, she smiled and sighed at Mama Qian: "When the Xiao family came to ask for marriage, I also said that the official position of the Xiao family's brother was not obvious, but now it seems that the second wife's vision is good." The four aunts of our family, the rich and noble, the noble and noble, in times of crisis, it was this most inconspicuous Xiao Han who helped, it was really unpredictable! ”
Mama Qian nodded hurriedly yes, thinking about the torment of those days, she couldn't help but be afraid, God bless, there was no danger in the end.
At night, Gu handed the 10,000 taels of silver tickets given by the old lady to the second master.
Jiang Hongsheng hesitated for a long time and said: "You can only spend this money, Yao'er's dowry needs to be three points thicker, I'll go and tell my mother!" ”
Gu shook his head and said angrily: "You spoil her like this, don't you want to empty the Jiang Mansion's family funds, absolutely not, just compare to the two girls in the big house, let's make up more in private, don't go too far, don't let others say that our Jiang Mansion is utilitarian!" At this moment, the less visible, the better, how many eyes are staring! ”
Jiang Hongsheng thought about it carefully, felt that Gu's words were very reasonable, ironed in his heart, and the heartstrings that had been tense for ten days finally settled down, Jiang Hongsheng's eyes and eyebrows were full of joy, and he turned off the lights early and pulled Gu to ask for pleasure.
After Jiang Xinyao learned that the old lady had subsidized her with 10,000 taels of dowry, she smiled coldly and ignored it, but it was Mother Li and those girls who were as happy as something.
The old lady is the vane of the Jiang Mansion, and when everyone saw the dowry of the fourth lady, even the third lady who was the old lady's favorite crossed it, and they were even more respectful to Tingfeng Xuan.
Today's second room of Jiang's Mansion is not a few years ago. Now the second wife is thriving, and there are three children by her side, the eldest of the two is married well, the other is well-read, and in the future, the second wife will have the final say in the Jiang Mansion.
Looking at the concubines of the second master, Aunt Zhou is forbidden, the third lady is out of the house, and the second master is idle and useless; Although Aunt Liu said that she was relieved, in a month, the second master only went once or twice, and Aunt Liu lived in a simple place after this incident, like a transparent person; Aunt Hong even said that the girl was born and had a medium appearance, and she had been raising her aunt for more than half a year, and the second master only entered her room for a few nights in the days when the second wife was young, which is more important, which is more important, it is obvious.
Everyone doesn't need the second wife's authority to order, just a light word, who doesn't do things properly.
……
Looking back at the Xu family, since that day the two sons were taken away by officers and soldiers in the mansion, and after the mansion was copied, Xu's old illness relapsed, collapsed on the bed, unable to move, unable to speak, three meals a day, and daily washing were carried out in bed.
The two daughters-in-law were worried about the life and death of the man, worried about the safety of the house, they were already frightened, and they couldn't take care of themselves.
Zhou Xiangyou, Zhou Xiangliang's restless and childless concubines saw that the two masters in the house were imprisoned, and seeing that the situation was not good, they fled from the house overnight with fine and soft makeup, and they were all gone.
The two wives of the main house had already taken care of themselves, and they didn't even report to the official, so they just went with them!
The brothers of the Zhou family were carried back to their homes, they were already skin and flesh, and they were dying, and they were about to get out of bed after half a year of recuperation.
Fortunately, although the brothers of the Zhou family were beaten, the valuable things in the house were copied and cleaned, and the Zhuangzi confiscated them, but the houses were still there, and there were two or three small shops to earn some silver taels.
As soon as the brothers combined, they took advantage of the fact that the old lady could not speak, and divided the house, the courtyard was divided into two, and the low wall was penetrated with bricks, one went to the south gate, and the other opened the north gate.
The two brothers walked before the ghost gate, and they saw through life and death, but they also went to some vices, only detained their families, and lived in peace!
The two brothers settled down, but unexpectedly, there was a commotion in the Hou Mansion. (..)
