The third time, the unreasonable separation
In the last book, it was said that Zheng Xijiu limped and was helped up to the temple. King Jing sneered unceremoniously.
King Jing has always been gentle, and it is rare for him to be able to say such powerful words.
As soon as these words came out, all the officials were shocked, but now they only smiled faintly, and did not reprimand King Jing. Even King Han, who has always been-for-tat with King Jing, didn't say a word. Such a strange scene made Zheng Xianjiu's old face flush in front of everyone, and he forgot to defend himself.
After returning to the house and thinking quietly, I always felt that the smile of the one in the Jinluan Hall seemed to have infinite meaning, and I couldn't help but sweat coldly, and I hurriedly called my son and grandson to my side to discuss it carefully. Unexpectedly, when he heard that his grandson was also reprimanded by his boss in the yamen today, Zheng Xijiu suddenly felt that the sky was dark, and his eyes were black.
Zheng sacrificial wine is fifty and six this year, and he has been sitting in the position of sacrificial wine for ten years, and it stands to reason that it is time for the hero to retire, but throughout the ages, there are a few people who are willing to put down the power in their hands and live idlely.
A person in a high position, how keen is his sense of smell, Zheng Saijiu waved away everyone, locked himself in the study, meditated for a long time, and sent the housekeeper to prepare a thick gift to the palace early the next morning to ask King Jing to see him.
How did I know that the housekeeper returned to the house and said that the Jingwang Mansion didn't let him in at all, and Zheng Xijiu felt that something was wrong. The next day, Zheng Xijiu was delivered to Jinshang.
Jinshang frowned and looked at it for a long time, and sighed: "The hard work is high!" "The royal pen batch can be regarded as agreeing to Zheng Heng's farewell to his hometown and giving him some money. Then he put the king of Han. King Jing and King Fu called him to discuss who would take over the position of sacrificial wine.
King Han didn't have time to say his own person yet. King Fu Gabang was neat and crisp, and said bluntly: "Simple, seniority is the fairest." ”
King Jing half-lowered his eyes and did not speak.
Imakami shouted with a lot of energy: "Good idea! King Jing secretly scolded the old fox.
Leaving Du Tianxiang in the palace every day, where is the wind cold, but he is afraid of the same as sixteen.
In this way, the position of the country's priest wine was passed to Du Yunpeng, who was the oldest.
King Han thought that the old man liked to do balancing the most, and he ate and drank spicy food. I also have to let others drink some leftover soup, there is a way to be poor and not chase. It also obeyed the old man's wishes. What's more, a sacrificial wine from the fourth grade is not in the center of power, and there is no benefit, so don't want it!
Du Yunpeng served as the edict of the prince of the country to supervise the sacrificial wine before arriving at the Du family. Xin Yao knew the news.
Guozijian, also known as Taixue, has a way of "the world's virtuous pass, etiquette and righteousness, and talent from the prosperity", in fact, this highest institution of learning has little to do with academics, but is an out-and-out yamen.
As the principal of the highest academic institution, it is not an academic position. It's an important official position. Guozijian, as an official yamen, to put it bluntly, is mainly to cultivate reserve talents for the imperial court to be officials.
This official position is generally for someone like Zheng Heng. People with average ability and no selfish affiliation are just a noble position; For people like Du Yunpeng who have a prince tied behind him, this position is particularly important.
Xin Yao couldn't help but think of Uncle Li's classic words in the world without thieves: "What is the most expensive in the 21st century - talent". Sure enough, it's an old fox, and he has secretly arranged troops for the second brother, and after the spring next year, the court will inevitably have a big blood change.
Sixteen, sixteen. If you know that your poisoning has brought the old fox a painful determination, you should be glad that this poison is worth it!
……
Zheng Heng learned that he had only received a reward of 1,000 taels for his return of the fold. Angry and fell ill in bed.
According to the past practice of the imperial court, his voluntary resignation should be somewhat exchanged for the promotion of his children and grandchildren. It is really unbelievable to send an official from the fourth rank with a reward of one thousand taels like this.
What's more, the successor is his colleague Du Yunpeng, with Du Yunpeng's qualifications, he wants to take up the position of sacrificial wine, and he has nothing to do with Zheng Heng as early as 800 years, why wait until now, why go around such a big circle.
He felt that this was strange before and after, so he ordered his henchmen to secretly spend money to inquire to see which immortal he had offended.
……
As soon as the news of Mrs. Du serving as the prince of the country came out, everyone in the Jiang family gasped when they thought of the cruel words that Mrs. Du put down in public that day.
Chen was even more frightened and broke the tea cup in his hand, and complained in front of Jiang Hongjian for a while. Jiang Hongjian also felt that the big thing was not good, so he hurriedly drilled into Jiang Hongsheng's study with a shy face.
As soon as the brothers discussed, they felt that this matter could not be hidden from the old lady. After hearing this, the old lady closed her eyes and motioned for the two to leave.
After the brothers left, the old lady called Mama Qian, and pointed to the dark pavilion in the corner of the bed, Mama Qian understood, took out a brocade box carved with peonies from inside, opened it and sent it to the old lady, the old lady stroked the contents of the brocade box, and the old tears were all over the place.
Mama Qian didn't dare to talk much, she only took the old lady's hand and helped the old lady massage according to Doctor Xiao's instructions, and the strength was used just right.
The old lady took a long breath, opened her mouth, and gritted her teeth and said two words: "Divide the family!" ”
Late the next night, the old lady asked someone to call Jiang Hongsheng alone, and an hour later, the second master of the Jiang family came out of Guiyuntang, and the sharp-eyed little maid was surprised to find that there were tears on the face of the second master.
That night, the old lady invited the old lady Xing in the guest house to come to her, and the two talked for a long time, and the old lady Xing left in a hurry.
On the second day, the old lady invited everyone in the house.
……
When everyone entered the door, the old lady was dressed in brand new clothes, her hair was combed neatly, and an auspicious wishful flower pillow was half nestled at the head of the bed.
The old lady Xing and her grandson sat one and stood alone, their faces solemn, and their hearts were a little clear.
When everyone arrived, the old lady glanced at Mama Qian.
Mama Qian understood, and said immediately: "Today, the old lady invited everyone to come, because she wanted to divide this family while the two rooms were complete." ”
When everyone heard this, they suddenly knelt on the ground.
Jiang Xing saw the old lady looking at him, and hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will witness this matter." ”
Mrs. Zhou hummed softly, and looked at Mama Qian again.
Mama Qian coughed, took out two pieces of paper from the old lady's pillow, handed them to Jiang Hongsheng, Jiang Hongjian and the brothers, and said loudly: "The old lady said, now that she is older, her body is not porcelain, the eldest lord, the second old man is middle-aged, it is time to divide the family and property." This is a lot book drafted by the old lady to ask the old lady, so let's take a look at the two masters. ”
The brothers took the lot, looked at it carefully, and were shocked.
The old lady whispered: "Second brother! Jiang Xing nodded and straightened up.
At this time, there was silence in the room, and even the sound of breathing could not be heard.
Jiang Xing's deep voice sounded slowly.
"Suzhou Mansion Courtyard, two other courtyards, 1,500 acres of good ancestral fields, the old lady in Suzhou Mansion 32 shops, four Zhuangzi, the things in the treasury are all valued by the big house, half of the annual ancestral land rent to the second room. The two houses in the capital, and the two dowry shops of the old lady are valued by the second room. In addition, the house has 480,000 taels of silver, and the big house has 180,000 taels. Another 50,000 taels were divided equally among the old lady's three brothers, and the rest was inherited by the second room, and the marriage of the third and fourth masters in the future was also here. ”
When the Chen family heard that the second room, which had always been favored, only got this piece of property, he was overjoyed, and couldn't help but raise his head, but he happened to meet the old lady's cold sword-like gaze, so he was so frightened that he quickly shrank his head and stroked his chest in panic.
Shen sighed softly, secretly guessing what the old lady was so favoritism. Is it difficult to ??????
It stands to reason that the two sons are both descendants, but one is the eldest and the other is young, except for the ancestral field inherited by the big house, the rest should be divided equally.
Shop, Zhuangzi not to mention, just the old lady has lived in the south for decades, and those things in the Suzhou treasury have accumulated over the years, which is a valuable wealth.
What's more, the marriage of the two masters in the house back then, the four young ladies got married, and they all used the money of the public school, and the old lady had subsidies in private.
The 200,000 taels of silver earned by the second room also included the marriage of the third brother and the fourth brother, so that the second room only got less than one-tenth of the Jiang family's property.
Jiang Hongsheng and his wife glanced at each other, and they were silent.
As soon as Jiang Yuanhang heard that the second room had obtained this little bit of family property, he had an expression of anger and did not dare to speak.
Wu was shocked, and couldn't help but look at the second wife, she saw that the second wife's back was straight, and there was no superfluous expression on her face, so she lowered her head.
Jiang Xing hooked the corners of his mouth and sneered: "The old lady said that in the future, she will be supported by the big house, so the things obtained by the big house will be kept by the old lady for the time being, and after the old lady is a hundred years old, the old man will bear the value." ”
As soon as Chen heard this, he turned his head slightly to look at the eldest master, pursed his lips, and had a lot of complaints about the sentence that was temporarily kept by the old lady. It's like getting a big apple, but you can only smell the fragrance every day, and you want to bite it, but there is no way, this apple is in the old lady's arms.
Shen's face changed a few times, and when he thought of the powerful little Aunt Zhou in the room, he couldn't help but bite his silver teeth.
Jiang Hongjian said with a smile: "As the eldest son, he should serve his mother. The land of fish and rice in the south, with four distinct seasons and a humid climate, it is only fitting for the old lady to follow me back to the south to retire. ”
Jiang Hongsheng endured a few endurances and said: "The old lady's illness can't move back and forth, even if the old lady wants to follow the eldest brother to the south, it's not too late to leave when she recovers, in case there is a good ...... along the way."
The old lady glanced at him coldly, and then moved her gaze to Mama Qian, who understood, and said word by word: "The old lady said no, and set off back to the south in half a month!" ”
The old lady has always favored the younger son, and it was the first time that she refuted the younger son's words like this, and the room was silent for a while.
The old lady looked at everyone's faces one by one, and closed them lightly for a while.
Jiang Yuanhang saw that the matter of the separation of the family was decided in this way, and his father did not have the slightest intention of resisting, so he immediately ignored it and said: "Old lady, my grandson has something to say." (To be continued)
