Sure enough, a few hours later, Fang Zijun took advantage of his great-grandfather's new funeral to murder his mother-in-law in an attempt to blame his mother-in-law, which spread all over the city.

Fang Nongyan weighed it again and again, and in the end felt that the favored concubine could be accepted again, and the only son was important, so she had to deal with Fang Zijun's biological mother Hua Shi according to the crime of instigating Fang Zijun to slander her main mother - in order to suppress the matter quickly, she sank the Hua family into the river overnight.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that the day after the Hua family sank the river, there were rumors in Beijing, saying that Ruan Qingyan was dissatisfied with him for more than ten years, and his spirit was completely gone, and he could only find a chance to return to Beijing by himself, and deliberately designed Fang Zijun to slander his mother, in order to take the opportunity to get rid of the Hua family and the Yan family, so that Ruan Ciyi could control the backyard.

"It must be true!" Fang Zijun unwillingly pulled Fang Nongyan's sleeve and shouted, "The child didn't harm Aunt Yan!" Father, you must believe in your child! ”

He has always been targeted at his aunt and sister by Hua's ear, and his mind is far more mature than that of ordinary children, who still doesn't understand that the biological mother who gave him ideas now is gone, and he is burdened with slandering his mother-even if he is instructed by his biological mother, but he has a history of directly attacking Aunt Yan, and he also knows that unless Fang Nongyan has only one son in his life, it will be difficult for him not to fall out of favor in the future! After all, who would be defenseless against a son who was only six years old and killed his younger brother or sister who didn't land?

Now that he heard this rumor, it was like grabbing a life-saving straw, relying on Fang Nongyan's previous favor, and now he is such a son, Fang Zijun stalked, cried and made trouble, insisting that he was in the Ruan family's hands, "The child was strange earlier, he was also a relative of his mother's mother, what kind of child fell a lion cat, and the county lord of Ningyi wanted to show the child's face; Uncle Ruan's uncle is so fond of children? Now it seems that he just wants to trick the child, deliberately pretending to be like that! ”

"Father, think about it, my mother-in-law obviously fainted at the time, why did the tell the child that the mother-in-law had returned home, and the others, the county lord of Ningyi, did not refute or remind the child?!" Fang Zijun cried so much that his tears smudged Fang Nongyan's body, "This is their joining forces to pit the child, father!" It's all because the child wasn't born to his mother! I must have a mother-in-law who hates the child and is usually not respectful enough to her, and colludes with her mother's family to harm the child! ”

He also said, "My mother can harm her children, how can she not harm Aunt Yan?" There are no brothers and sisters born to my mother, the child is now the eldest son, and Aunt Yan is just a concubine, even if she also gives birth to a younger brother, then the status cannot be compared with the child, will the child harm him? ”

Fang Nongyan listened to his son's crying and complaint, and his heart was also mixed, although he was demoted to Hezhou for many years and was not promoted, he was like ashes a few years ago-otherwise he would not have spoiled Fang Zijun into the seemingly smart but stupid appearance he is now - but whether he is a serious Jinshi background, it is really impossible to say that these people in the family are really impossible.

The possibility of Ruan Ciyi murdering Aunt Yan is actually not high, his wife had been jealous in the early years, and she was very opposed to him taking a concubine. But since the death of one son and two daughters one after another, Ruan Ciyi has been hit hard, not only has people withered, but he doesn't even think much about the affairs of the backyard - after that, he accepted people, Ruan Ciyi just agreed, and didn't even ask!

It is the mother and son of the Hua family, the mother is expensive with the son, and the son is with the mother's love, and there is no less trouble in the backyard. In the past two years, Ruan Ciyi's mother's family has no one and no children, and Ruan Ciyi's rich dowry has long been regarded as in her pocket...... For the Fang family's return to Beijing, the Hua family's mother and son were both happy to enter the prosperous imperial capital, and resentful that the Ruan family had an heir - this time the Yan family had a miscarriage and blamed Ruan Ciyi, except for the danger of the second son or eldest daughter landing and competing with Fang Zijun for favor; and let the Ruan family take care of the loss, giving them the opportunity to plunder the industry - no matter what you think, the Hua family instigated their son to do it.

The problem is that knowing is knowing - the so-called water is clear, there is no fish, and Prime Minister Xue Changshang is still trying to let his concubine and his sister-in-law get along in harmony but can't, let alone Fang Nongyan?

He obviously knew that he was wronged to send a wife, but he was disgusted with Fang Zijun in this way, and he couldn't do it.

Anyway, it's also a son who is as spoiled as a liver baby, especially if he is such a son now!

Sinking the Hua family into the river, he has already cut his heart like a knife......

"Don't talk about it." After being silent for a long time, Fang Nongyan felt that since she had already paid the price of her concubine's death, if she had a share with the Ruan family because of Fang Zijun's words, it really couldn't be worth it.

Even if his concubine and son were really all pitted by Ruan Qingyan, but now he can fight with Ruan Qingyan? Even though the two of them are listed in the same seven grades, where is there a comparison between the hand-picked Hanlin Academy editor and the Qingshui Yamen of the Taishi Bureau, which all the scholars in the world yearn for!

The former is the only way for the prime minister, and the latter? Hehe!

So Fang Nongyan told his son, "There are still many places where you need to rely on your Uncle Ruan as a father, and your Aunt Ning Yi's identity is also extremely noble." We just went back to Beijing, this is not the small county of Hezhou, and the rich families in the county dare not offend you. In this capital, being a father is nothing, far inferior to your Uncle Ruan...... So in the future, you should treat your mother-in-law as if she were your own mother, and it will be good for you......"

Before he finished speaking, Fang Zijun screamed with resentment on his face: "She killed my mother!" Do you want me to treat her like a mother?! ”

"......" Fang Zijun choked, not only relieved that he ordered the Hua family to sink into the river but did not invite his son to hold a grudge, but also worried that his son hated his wife so much, and sooner or later he would be targeted by the Ruan family, and when he was hesitating, the next person came in and announced: "Tai Shiling sent someone over, and someone came to say, if you have something to say to the master alone." ”

"Please!" The boss sent someone, how dare Fang Nongyan slack off? At that moment, he asked someone to take his son away, and he hurriedly went inside to change his clothes and go out to entertain.

It was the third day of the dead, and the hangers were almost gone.

After all, although Ruan Qingyan has a great future, he has been in Hanlin for less than a year, and his foundation is shallow. And because General Ruan went suddenly, and he had to help Ling go back to Laizhou, he couldn't pack up his things for three days, and he had to stop for at least seven days - in the evening, Qiu Yulan saw that no one would come after the afternoon, and there would be no one when it was almost dark, so he picked up a curtain to persuade Ruan Qingyan to mourn and lie down in the back.

As a result, Ruan Qingyan waved his hand and rejected her proposal, but instead pulled her to kneel down with her, and said in a low voice: "I will leave in two days, you have to be careful yourself in the past two years - I have already told Ling Xiaohou about the matter of my stepmother, and it is impossible for the identity of the eldest princess of Maode to come to mourn in person, so I will wait for a few days and then find a reason to recognize you." ”

Qiu Yulan was really not interested in recognizing a stepmother, but she didn't dare to tell Ruan Qingyan that I have Jiang Yashuang to protect you, don't worry-so I still responded obediently.

Listening to Ruan Qingyan's explanation, "Fang Nongyan can share wealth and prosperity but not hardship, and she is not a good match for a big sister." The death of the three children born to the eldest sister has something to do with the backyard, this person was angry with the eldest sister because he was dragged by his grandfather, and the slander of the concubine, not only did he ignore it, but even blamed the eldest sister for not taking good care of the children...... It's just that the eldest sister is reluctant to reconcile with him because of the love of husband and wife, I originally planned to beat that Fang Zijun for a good time, and asked the doctor to recuperate the eldest sister, so that she can be close ......to her after having another sister-in-law."

Speaking of this, he sighed, "It's just that now that my grandfather is suddenly gone, I am going to leave Laizhou, but you all have to stay." In the past two years, your sisters have no one to take care of, and it is inevitable that there will be grievances; In case there is a problem with my comeback after my filial piety, I am afraid that the eldest sister will continue to be neglected by the Fang family! So now I can only cut through the mess quickly...... The eldest sister just doesn't want to leave, and I can't let her continue to live with the surname Fang! ”

He lowered his eyes and said seriously, "After all, right now, the three of us are blood relatives - the eldest sister is so haggard now, I don't want me to return to Beijing in three years, and I have to continue to keep filial piety for her!" So even if she doesn't want to, I'm going to do it for her! ”

Qiu Lulan had long been disgusted by Fang Zijun's displeasure in looking at Fang Nongyan, and she would have heard that Fang Nongyan was actually angry with Ruan Ciyi to the point where she didn't even pursue the death of her sister-in-law, and felt that this person was simply mad: "I didn't know this kind of thing before, otherwise even if my grandfather didn't leave, I wouldn't be used to seeing my eldest sister continue to spoil their family!" ”

He also said, "I don't think the eldest sister may be reluctant to give up that Fang Nongyan, most of them have been bullied over the years, and they have just returned to Beijing, and they are not familiar with us, so they are afraid of causing you trouble." ”

Anyway, it's already done, and it's not easy to find a reason to be at ease?

"I will try my best to let the eldest sister cut off the relationship with the Fang family before leaving Beijing - so that I can take her out of Beijing to keep filial piety, and with the current situation of the eldest sister, let her go to Laizhou with me to live in Laizhou for two years." Ruan Qingyan sighed and said with a solemn expression, "In the future, if you are alone in the capital, you must ......."

"You don't know how many times you've said that, cousin." Qiu Yulan said angrily, "I know, I know—your cousin is not your big sister, I'm such a good bully?" ”

Ruan Qingyan frowned and said, "Also, don't have any more dealings with Jiang Yashuang, this is just as important!" ”

Qiu Yulan shrunk his neck weakly.

Ruan Qingyan immediately noticed, and his face changed suddenly: "Don't tell me that you are still dealing with him?!" ”

"Nope!" Qiu Yulan hurriedly said, "Since that night, I haven't looked for him again!" ”

Ruan Qingyan eased up at this time, thought for a while, and said, "Your marriage contract with Deng Yi, I have to try it after leaving." and your life's events, I don't know if you can find a ...... in the past two years Fortunately, you are only thirteen, and you will be sixteen years old in three years, so it is not too late to talk about marriage. ”

Seeing that the confusion had passed, Qiu Yulan secretly wiped her cold sweat and thought, "Cousin, I didn't lie to you, I really didn't go to Jiang Yashuang, but he came to find me...... I just didn't say it! ”

Next, Ruan Qingyan babbled about many matters - the central idea was "I really don't worry about you being in Beijing, what can you do if you are wronged and calculated." In the face of this cousin who was about to break his heart, Qiu Yulan used eighteen kinds of martial arts, and he was guaranteed to be coquettish and cute, so he perfunctory.

Following Ruan Qingyan to see that it was not early, he waved her to eat and rest: "No one will come today, and it is estimated that no one will come in the next four days...... You are still young, and you are a granddaughter, so when you are tired, you go to rest, and your grandfather has always loved you and will not blame you. ”

Qiu Yulan also thought so: "Cousin, take a break, right?" ”

"Nope." Ruan Qingyan smiled at her tiredly, his eyes were very sad, "I feel ashamed, I feel better if I kneel for a while." ”

When he said this, Qiu Yulan thought about it and still didn't dare to ask deeply, and secretly thought: "Does this mean that he admits that he is the blood of the Ruan family?" Because I didn't come back early to do my filial piety, I feel ashamed? Why? Is it just to finish the examination in the south and go to Beijing together? It's unlikely—with my cousin's talent, I don't need to rely on imperial examination immigration to increase my chances of getting on the list! ”

…… Early the next morning, someone from Jingzhao Mansion came to the door: "Ruan Hanlin, let your brother-in-law Fang Jucheng sue you for murdering the heir in the womb of his concubine and blame his eldest son - of course, now that my grandfather is gone, there is no descendant to send him to death except you, the deceased is the greatest, you can stay here and continue to wake the spirit." But, the government always has to send two people who know about it, right? ”

Through the curtain, listening to the polite but tough words of the servant, Qiu Yulan breathed a sigh of relief: "Everything is in my cousin's plan - it seems that Cousin Ruan's freedom is just around the corner." ”

However, after the official took Dong Ran and Ruan An left, in the face of Qiu Yulan's inquiry, Ruan Qingyan's face sank like water: "I didn't arrange to go to the yamen!" ”

Qiu Yulan was taken aback: "Who is that?!" How so?! ”
