、、、、、、、、、、 "How did it get to this point?" Although I knew that paper couldn't contain the fire, and sooner or later it would break out, I didn't expect it to be so big. No one underestimated Mrs. Du's poison and ruthlessness, including Mrs. Du's mother, who was afraid that she never thought of it.

Jiang Yunqing howled and cried: "Sister-in-law, beg the eldest brother to go and see, there is no one in the house." "The old lady had an accident, Xiao Xuexi had a miscarriage, and the grievances between Jiang Changyi and Mrs. Du had to be eased. As a result, without waiting for the doctor to arrive, the old lady died with a whimper, and the Xiao family, who rushed to hear the news, went berserk and wanted to hold Mrs. Du and Jiang Changyi responsible, but Mrs. Du had already disappeared with Du Qian, and there was nothing left in her house with any small valuables, and the rest of the furnishings and those that could not be taken away were all smashed, and a fire was also set on fire, and everyone saw a smoking courtyard.

Then, Jiang Changyi probably expected the end - Jiang Chong would not spare him, the Xiao family was bound to abandon him, and the future of any official position was a floating cloud, so he also disappeared, and he didn't know where he went. Jiang Zhong locked himself up with the dead old lady, did not see the guests, did not speak, and did not care about things. The servants of the Xiao family looked for Jiang Yunqing everywhere and asked her to give an explanation, to serve Xiao Xuexi, Jiang Yunqing, a daughter who has not left the cabinet, what explanation can she have? Fortunately, the green banana beside the old lady went to report the news, and then Aunt Xue ran out of the corner gate to ask for help.

Aunt Xue cried: "Originally, I didn't have the face to look for the Grand Duke and the Young Lady, but when such a big incident happened, we didn't come to tell you, it was our fault." "Broken bones and tendons, Jiang Changyang can ignore it, but others will definitely think that he is a mean, unfilial, and unkind person, so he is infamous.

Peony secretly thought, since this matter is so big, it is impossible to hide it, and the Guogong Mansion will definitely not be able to protect it. She was only worried about whether she would give Jiang Changyang's opponent a chance and take the opportunity to attack Jiang Changyang. The top priority is to notify Jiang Changyang first, and then prepare to keep filial piety for the old lady, so he ordered to help Jiang Yunqing's mother and daughter go down to rest, let people go to Jiang Changyang, and immediately prepare filial piety clothes and other things.

Jiang Yunqing and Aunt Xue were helped down in tears, and Mother Lin saw that Peony was meditating hard, very sad, and gritted her teeth with hatred, so she persuaded: "Let them rot, you are the one who is about to give birth, what can you do?" ”

Peony rubbed her forehead and said, "What can that be?" You don't have to be ready to do everything you need to do yet. Let everyone put down all the unimportant errands and hurry up to make filial piety. ”

It didn't take long for Jiang Changyang to bring people back, so that Peony could rest assured, put on filial piety first, and take care of other things and leave them to him to deal with. So Peony asked people to remove all the gorgeous furnishings in the courtyard, hung up the white lanterns, plucked the hairpins and other things on their heads, changed into plain clothes, and sent someone to inform the He family.

In the evening, Mrs. Cen, He Zhizhong, Da Lang and others rushed over to take the place of the Peony Council, and came up with ideas, all afraid that the mess of the Guogong Mansion would implicate Jiang Changyang. Before the measure was properly measured, someone came back to report the news, saying that Jiang Changyang went to the Guogong Mansion and negotiated with the people of the Xiao family, the Xiao family picked up Xiao Xuexi, carried Xiao Xuexi's dowry and left, the old lady's mourning hall has been arranged, let Jiang Yunqing go back to the funeral, as for the peony, let her go over tomorrow when she is refreshed. The person who came came to tell Peony that Jiang Chong entered the palace overnight to ask for guilt and wanted to divorce his wife.

Peony was stunned when he heard this, it turned out that Jiang Zhong locked himself up with the old lady just to write a letter of resignation? Will you be able to choose him out by divorce of his wife? Did he fall asleep and didn't wake up? What is the root cause of divorce? Forgive him for not daring to pull out the things that Mrs. Du did, nor did he dare to pull out the good things done by Jiang Changyi and the Xiao family, at most, he could find trouble with Mrs. Du from other aspects, such as unfilial piety and unkindness, and put all the responsibility for the family chaos on Mrs. Du. As for him, it is likely that he shouted to the emperor that he had no way to govern the family, but he would definitely think that he was right, and it was Mrs. Du, the Xiao family, and Jiang Changyi who were wrong.

This night, Jiang Changyang did not come back. He Zhizhong was admitted to the Jiang family that there was such a big event, but he was afraid that many people would avoid it, so he led a few children to help, and he was very busy, and he did his best. It was unanimously praised by the few people who went to mourn.

Early in the morning of the second day, everyone rushed out of the mourning clothes overnight, changed up and down, and Peony forced himself to go over and respond to it. Because it was still early, there were no guests to come to the door to offer condolences, and in a huge mourning hall, there were only Jiang Chong with a dead face, Jiang Changyang and Jiang Yunqing with expressionless faces. It's empty, it's not cold and desolate. The entire Guogong Mansion was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.

Peony couldn't kneel down at all, so he bowed with the help of someone, burned some incense, candles, and coins, and sat down behind to rest. Seeing the green banana and red child whose eyes were crying and swollen, I knew the follow-up, Xiao Xuexi was going to break off with Jiang Changyi; Mrs. Du went directly to Fuyunguan to become a monk when she left the Zhuguo Mansion yesterday, and Aunt Line committed suicide last night, and Jiang Changyi was still nowhere to be found. And Jiang Zhong went to the palace yesterday, and also to Du Qian and Xiao Shangshu, and got the news that the emperor went to Furong Garden and didn't see anyone, that is to say, until now, no one knows what fate and punishment will be.

Since noon, people have come to mourn one after another, there are very few people, most of them are waiting and watching, and will not take the initiative to provoke this suspicion. I never saw the people in the Fen Palace, Aunt Xue was so sad and worried that she was going to die, and Jiang Yunqing's expression was like a tree. This kind of ugly thing happened, although the Duke of Zhu Guo's Mansion has not been stripped of his title, but it is already an absolute defeat, and his reputation is gone, Jiang Yun has cleared Xiao Si's interest in her, it can be said that there is no advantage, and this family affair seems to have been yellow before it has been negotiated. Peony couldn't figure out what the Fen Wangfu would think, and he couldn't comfort Jiang Yunqing if he wanted to. But in the evening, someone from the Fenwang Mansion finally came, and they sent someone to the back to comfort Peony and Jiang Yunqing, and everyone settled down a little.

But the bad news continued, the impeachment of Jiang Chong and Du Qian flew up like snowflakes, and some people took the opportunity to attack Jiang Changyang, how many of them were instructed by the Xiao family, needless to say, but the emperor never expressed his position. On the tenth day, the emperor finally remembered this incident, so the Du family and the Jiang family were unlucky. Du Qian was dismissed, Jiang Chong was the most pitiful, the title was gone, the Guogong Mansion was gone, the land and everything else were gone, and Jiang Changyi's official position and fame were naturally gone, but he was never nowhere to be seen, so whether it was a crime, it was a result. Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for the old lady to get a beautiful burial.

Mrs. Du, who ran to Fuyunguan to hide, didn't get well, Du Qian felt sorry for her and wanted to support her, but because of her previous concealment and unsparing practice at that time, she ran away. The Du family's heart was naturally angry, so when she sent people to visit Du Qian, the Dugu family confiscated her things, refused to see people, and said a few very unpleasant words. The so-called virtuous and other things that she had worked hard to accumulate in the past have become a cloud of the past, and only notoriety remains. It didn't take long for her to become ill, and she was left to hang with only one breath, neither dead nor alive, and only Jin Zhu was alone to serve. Of course, this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

But for some reason, Jiang Changzhong's incident of taking the lead in the army and the cause of his death did not come out, or rather, the imperial court did not have a clear statement and definition of this matter, Peony asked Jiang Changyang why this was, she didn't believe that the emperor was so easy to fool, Du Qian and Jiang Chong were okay, and the Xiao family was not affected in any way, which is unreasonable. Jiang Changyang thought about it for a long time, but finally didn't give her a definite answer. Who knows what that person thinks? Maybe he wanted to see that happen. As for the Xiao family, Jiang Changyang believes that sooner or later they will be unlucky.

And the attack on Jiang Changyang actually didn't have much effect. Jiang Changyang was originally going to keep filial piety for the old lady, but this official couldn't do it anymore at this time, so he concentrated on keeping filial piety. In addition, the emperor has been staying in the middle and not expressing his position, and there are people from King Jing, Pan Rong, and Fen Wangfu to help, and the matter will be closed after a period of trouble.

Jiang Chong was completely wilted, during the period of filial piety, he couldn't drink or do anything else, his favorite thing to do was to sit in front of the old lady's spiritual seat and look at the empty courtyard in a daze. However, he couldn't live long in this empty courtyard, and he had to move out as soon as the old lady was buried.

The old lady was soon buried, and Peony's pregnancy also entered September. On this day, she was still asleep, and her stomach hurt. So he was helped into the delivery room by Mother Lin and others, and under the guidance of the stable wife who had been prepared for a long time, he prepared to give birth.

It was a sunny day, and even the white cloth curtains and white cloth lanterns hanging everywhere could not hide the brightness and splendor of early summer. In the evening, Peony gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses. The son is the elder brother, and the daughter is the younger sister. Although it was not full-term, everything was safe and sound, and the child's cry was very loud.

Peony woke up from her sleep, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Jiang Changyang's quiet and tranquil smile. He took her hand and whispered, "I named the children." The son is called Zheng, and the daughter is called Xian. ”

Peony thought for a moment and nodded: "The name is very good." She looked left and right, but when she didn't see the child, she smiled: "Bring me the child?" "Isn't that what colostrum is critical? You have to think about getting some for the kid.

Jiang Changyang smiled lightly: "I've seen it, it looks like me." So he called for the child to be brought in. Mother Lin pouted and came back, saying that Jiang Zhong was guarding the side, and the child was asleep, and he didn't let him hug it.

Jiang Changyang's eyebrows raised, and he got up and walked out.

Peony smiled bitterly, Jiang Chong is here to make trouble for them? In this person's life, he can't figure out his position.
