Jian Xubai and his wife had no opinions, so after the third room stayed in the ancestral house for the New Year, after the fifteenth day of the first month, they said goodbye to the big house and the clansmen and moved to Liaozhou City.

When they left, there was a reason, because Jian Limiao was sick - Jian Limiao was not in good health, and he had been taking medicine for many years when he was in the imperial capital, and this time he came back from a long journey, followed by the loss of his father and brother, and lived on the grave for a few days, and was naturally so sick that he was carried back to the ancestral house for treatment, in this case, of course, he could not continue to guard the house.

Then first, I boiled medicine in the ancestral house for fear of disturbing the big house, and second, the ancestral house was only a town, and it was inconvenient to buy many things, so I had to quit and go to the city.

The big room was retained once, and when he saw that the third room was resolute, he didn't stop it.

Before Sanfang left, he sent things to the big house and all the families in the clan, so when they left, many clansmen came to help, and they almost sent them all the way to the city gate before staying.

After bidding farewell to their people, they entered the city.

The old lady Duanmu gave Jian Limiao's house four times before and after, and also brought a two-acre garden, which has been cleaned and repaired by someone for many years, so it is very intact.

Although there is no green in the courtyard in this season, between the branches of the Qiongyu pile, the vermilion lacquer carved railing, and the blue tiles are uneven, only a glimpse of it is extraordinary.

Walking into the house, I saw a piece of iron pear wood furniture, mica screen glazed couch, and a newly cut plum branch narcissus inserted in a bottle on the table, which made the whole room full of rich fragrance.

"It's finally getting a look!" After Jian Limiao sat down, he waved his hand to let the juniors also sit down and talk, looked around, but he was still not very satisfied, and said reluctantly, "Hengzhi will live until the second half of this year, let's go down!" ”

Song Yixiao was quite speechless when she heard this, in her opinion, many of the furnishings in this place are no worse than the Yanguo Mansion, but the new father-in-law still said "will" - it seems that the reason why this father-in-law proposed to move out of the ancestral house is probably because he feels that the life in the ancestral house is too hard, and he is embarrassed to improve it in front of the big house, so he can only move to the city.

Recently moved, of course, there are a lot of big and small things.

And Jian Limiao's father and son can't help with these things-because local officials lined up to visit the "sick" Jian Limiao.

Jian Limiao and Jian Xubai themselves are very impatient with this kind of entertainment, and their identities don't need to give these people face. After refusing to accept the guests for the first time, people came to the clan, and they asked them to consider it for the clan: After the father and son have finished their filial piety, they will return to the court with their dependents, but the rest of the Jian family still has to live here!

What if the parents and officials hate the Jane clan?

The father and son discussed it and decided to give the clan a face. In this way, it was perfunctory until the end of spring and early summer, and even in a bitter cold place like Liaozhou, they all changed into spring clothes, and visitors became scarce.

No one came to disturb him, but Jian Limiao came to Youxing, and he would go out to play almost every other day - he didn't dislike the trouble, he brought the two children with him every time, and he was fishing Ming'er and climbing the mountain today, Song Yixiao couldn't see the children's figures during the day. So she couldn't help but be free.

And at this time, the husband and wife are still keeping filial piety, nothing and not good together, Liaozhou This place she can be said to be unfamiliar with the place, although the clansmen are a little flattering to the meaning of the three rooms, in the end the experience of different status, it is difficult to really talk about a piece.

Therefore, Song Yixiao began to miss the imperial capital, at least there were friends of the boudoir such as Yuan Xuecao and Jiang Muyao to come and go.

It's not like that, and it's not like it's doing nothing.

I didn't expect to be so depressed for a few days, but the imperial capital really came to the letter.

The letter was written by Yuan Xuexu, in addition to greetings, the main thing was to report the good news, because Yuan Xuexu, who had been out of the cabinet for a few years, was finally pregnant.

Song Yixiao was of course very happy to see the news, and before she finished reading the letter, she called the bell to her and asked her to buy a congratulatory gift.

But after telling the bell, she continued to read, only to find that Yuan Xuexu also said a not-so-good news: the prince had an accident!

The prince had an accident when he was riding a horse, and the guards rescued him in time, and it didn't cause a big disaster, but he just broke a leg, and after the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, he said that there shouldn't be any big problems after taking it - after all, the prince is still young, only eleven years old, and his bones can continue to grow.

The problem is that the person who plotted to kill the crown prince was Concubine Mao.

Concubine Mao was first named Concubine Mao, and her promotion to the concubine position was a matter last year when Cuihua Mountain was returning to the court for the summer, because her son died - yes, this is the biological mother of the second prince of Emperor Duanhua.

Of course, the reason why she murdered the prince was because she was unwilling, she was not very favored when she was a concubine for the prince in the East Palace, and after being promoted to concubine, she also made decorations. But because she has a son, Empress Wei has never been harsh on her, so she lives in peace.

As a result, there was smallpox in Cuihua Mountain last year, and the second prince was gone!

When the biological mother was named a concubine because of this, how could she be happy?

After all, according to the rules of this dynasty, there are no children and concubines, except for a very few cases like Concubine Fu, once the emperor dies, she will have to go to the palace and wait for death - Concubine Mao has not served Emperor Duanhua for several years, and it is basically impossible to have any more children!

So in other words, even if Emperor Duanhua is still alive now, she is just waiting for death to be a widow.

Concubine Mao can not hate in her heart?

Of course, the person she hated most was the person who caused smallpox, but the Lu family had been destroyed; The second hatred is Jian Xubai's father and daughter, after all, everyone thinks that the reason why the second prince got smallpox is that Jian Xubai brought smallpox into the palace after passing smallpox from his daughter, and the young and frail second prince was tricked.

Concubine Ke Mao is just a palace concubine who is not favored, even if she resents Jian Xubai's father and daughter, her hand can't reach out to the front court and can't reach to the Guogong Mansion. Especially now, Jian Xubai's whole family is in Liaozhou, not even in the imperial capital.

So Concubine Mao finally pointed the finger at the crown prince - my son is dead, why is the queen's son still alive?

She may not know that such anger is unreasonable, but desperate people can do anything.

In fact, after what Concubine Mao did was exposed, Empress Wei and the crown prince repeatedly interceded for her, asking Emperor Duanhua to take it lightly for the sake of her loss of a child. And after Emperor Duanhua was furious, he only demoted her to the last beauty - but she still chose to touch the pillar. Exhaust.

This tragedy has ended in the imperial capital, and the emperor finally decided to bury Concubine Mao with a concubine ceremony and forgive her for her momentary confusion.

But it didn't end there.

Yuan Xuecao told a friend in the letter: "Now many people are sending Jian Xiuhuan and Qingyue behind their backs, saying that if it weren't for Jian Xiuhuan dying smallpox and not knowing it, and going in and out of the palace as usual, the second prince would be fine at all; Concubine Mao has the hope of having a son, and even if she is not favored, she will not think of murdering His Royal Highness the Prince; So that the prince would not break his leg; Concubine Mao doesn't have to be self-conscious. The royal family is still a harmonious family. ”

Of course, she also comforted, "The emperor was very angry about such rumors, and personally urged Jingzhao Mansion to investigate thoroughly, and some people were very defeated." The Empress Dowager and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom also have the same attitude, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is not the fault of Jian Xiuhuan's father and daughter. ”

But Song Yixiao knew that things would not be so simple, not to mention that the mouth of the people was more important than the defense of Sichuan, and it was not necessarily that Emperor Duanhua and his wife did not have similar thoughts in their hearts.

In the end, the second prince is the biological flesh and blood of Emperor Duanhua; The crown prince who suffered this time is also the only child of Empress Wei!

If the place is changed, it will be difficult for Song Yixiao not to be angry.

Although everyone knows it, Jian Xubai definitely didn't mean it.

But unintentional mistakes are also a kind of mistakes, especially when the consequences caused by it are irreparable, whether it is intentional or unintentional Sometimes it really doesn't really matter - because the damage has already been done.

When Song Yixiao put down the letter with a heavy heart, the joy of Yuan Xuexu's joy was replaced by worry.

She ordered someone to go to the front yard to invite Jian Xubai: "Look at it! ”

"We're not in the imperial capital now, so we can only assume that we don't know for the time being." Jian Xubai's face was also gloomy after reading the letter, and he was silent for a moment before saying, "The filial piety period is not over, so it is impossible to rush back now." What's more, now that I'm going back, there is nothing else to do except go to the emperor and queen to ask for guilt - but since the emperor has already expressed his intention to defend it, going to ask for guilt must be just a formality, and maybe it will arouse the sadness in their hearts. ”

Song Yixiao also thought so, she sent the letter to her husband just to let her husband be mentally prepared, so as not to be caught off guard when she returned to the imperial capital at the end of the year.

The couple was depressed for a long time because of this incident, and they were afraid that Jian Limiao would know about their worries after returning from Miao, so they barely cheered up and covered it up.

But a few days later, Jian Limiao still knew.

It was not that the couple showed their flaws, but that Jian Limiao also received news from his colleagues from the imperial capital: someone impeached him for being with Jian Xubai, not thinking about the love of flesh and blood, the righteousness of brothers and sisters, colluding with the clansmen, and bullying Jian Yiyou, the son of the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom.

It is said that the impeachment table contains several testimonies of people from Liaozhou, and they also moved out of the ancestral house.

The impeachment of the imperial history is very literary, it is said that the book will write about Jian Yiyu's situation in tears, and the behavior of the three rooms of the Jian family is so bad that even the thousands of people can not describe it - so that Emperor Duanhua can't read it halfway through.

The eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, who saw it later, rarely did not speak to Jian Xubai immediately, but chose to be silent.

Regarding the reaction of the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, Jian Limiao and the three of them were actually not very surprised, after all, people who had a little more contact with the eldest princess knew that the eldest princess had always liked to make up for the shortcomings.

More than ten years ago, Jian Yiyu was older, Jian Xubai was young, Jian Yiyu murdered his younger brother, and since then, the eldest princess has obviously favored Jian Xubai among the two sons surnamed Jian;

Now that the world has changed, the down-and-out has become Jian Yiyou, and Jian Xubai has Jian Limiao's love and maintenance, so the eldest princess's heart will naturally fall to Jian Yiyou.

What worries them is Emperor Duanhua.

Everyone in this dynasty knows that Emperor Duanhua is tolerant of the Yanguo Mansion, and now someone dares to openly impeach Jian Xubai, which in itself shows that the emperor's attitude is likely to change because of the matter of Concubine Mao.

And in the news that Jian Limiao got, although Emperor Duanhua ignored the impeachment, he didn't say anything about the impeached person, but he reprimanded a few words lightly, saying that he believed that Jian Xubai's father and son were definitely not such people, so forget it.

Such a statement is more of a suggestion that the man will bring more evidence.

"It's been more than half a year since we left the imperial capital, and something must have happened in the middle of this that is unknown to outsiders." Although Jian Limiao is at the same level as Jian Xubai, but his age and qualifications are put aside, and he has rich political experience, he said as soon as he saw the news, "Otherwise, with your relationship with Your Majesty, as well as the face of the Empress Dowager, it is possible for Your Majesty to have a grudge against Concubine Mao alone, and your attitude has turned to this point, eight times out of ten. Nine is inside! ”
