Qin Mingyue sat on the carved rose chair and frowned. There is a long way to go to clean up the Daomen. It is still not enough to drive the family out by force and the miracle of Xuanwu. Although it is possible to reduce their influence from the Star Picking Building, it can make them leave important positions.

However, the families are intertwined, intermarrying each other for hundreds of years, and friends and in-laws are all over the Daomen. Isolated people, but isolated from love. Looks like we'll have to think about it again.

Qin Mingyue was in a trance, and Dongqu came over and said, "Master Guoshi, we have already cleaned up, and outside, the flower commander also told me that the team has been sorted out, and outside the Star Picking Tower, His Royal Highness the King of Qin is also waiting." ”

Qin Mingyue was busy cheering up: "Okay, let's go." ”

In the evening, this mighty team walked out of the capital. At this time, starting from the capital, it was still such a huge team, and the people in the capital were a little curious. A lot of people are inquiring. Especially when I see the sign of the Star Picking Tower.

The news was that this large team was escorted by His Royal Highness the King of Jin to fasting near Qingliang Mountain in the west of the capital in preparation for the grand ceremony to be held in the Star Picking Tower. Because it is the national teacher who is dispatched, then there will naturally be more entourages of Star Picking Tower and Daomen, and there will be more guards, so there will be such a large team.

When everyone heard the news, they were not surprised. The national teacher lives in the capital all the year round, and the Daomen of the Star Picking Building often engages in ritual activities, and every time he acts, he needs to sacrifice to the sky or sacrifice to the ancestors of the gods and the like to fast. Everyone is used to it, so they don't care.

Of course, some people still care, and these people quietly spread the news, and even followed behind.

The large army marched slowly, and entered the special palace of Qingliang Mountain Daomen, and it was quiet, and there were few people entering and leaving.

After a few days, the people who followed them found that there was no movement, and everything was like a normal fast, and they were relieved and had less surveillance.

There are very few people in the capital who talk about this matter. However, some merchants were very happy, because the Star Picking House began to buy in large quantities, which was a prelude to preparing for a grand event. The Star Picking Building is very wealthy, and every time there is a grand ceremony, they will buy a lot of things, and the merchants are naturally happy.

The city of Beijing was prosperous for a while.

On the second day after Qin Mingyue left the city, Zeng Yutong returned to his parents' house. Not only did she go back to her parents' house, but she also asked someone to bring a letter to the fourth sister, asking the fourth sister to also go back to her parents' house to meet.

Zeng Siniang got the letter, didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly talked to her husband Gu Chun, and the two of them went to tell the second elder of the Gu family together. When Old Master Gu heard this, he attached great importance to it, his face was serious, and he said to his daughter-in-law: "At this time, the palace is preparing for the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, the war in the southwest is over, the Yamen is about to be sealed, and the palace is relatively calm, what is the matter?" ”

Although Master Gu doesn't care about the affairs of the inner courtyard, he also knows that on weekdays, his daughter-in-law has close contact with her mother's sister, the Duchess of Liguo, and if it is just a normal in-law exchange, they usually go to the Liguo Mansion to talk to her sister. Moreover, most of them are the Duchess of Liguo who their daughters-in-law took the initiative to find. For example, the Duchess of Liguo took the initiative to find her daughter-in-law, most of them were serious things.

This time, it was even more strange, not only did the Duchess of Liguo take the initiative to find Zeng Siniang, but she also made an appointment to meet at her mother's house. Master Gu instinctively felt that something was going to happen.

Zeng Siniang didn't say anything, how did she know what would happen?

Mrs. Gu is knowledgeable, recently, she likes her eldest daughter-in-law more and more, she said: "Master, isn't the old family still gone?" How do you know what's going on? However, since the Duchess of Liguo told the old family about this, I asked someone to prepare two gifts, one for the old family to take back to her brother and sister-in-law, and one for the Duchess of Liguo, how about it? ”

Master Gu nodded and said, "Well, it's better to be three points thicker than the usual salute." ”

Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "This is from our province." ”

In the past period of time, because the eldest daughter-in-law's mother's family has become stronger and stronger, the elder brother has become the Hou Ye, and the younger sister has become the Duchess of the country, and they are all people trusted by the national teacher, which has made the Gu family shine. Can Mrs. Gu still be stingy with this thing? Besides, who in the world doesn't know now, the descendants of the National Teacher are now in full swing, even if it is the people of the Jin Dynasty, they don't dare to provoke, how many people want to stammer? People are willing to accept gifts from their own families, which are the face of their own families.

Mrs. Gu prepared two rich gifts for the eldest daughter-in-law to bring, and also told the eldest daughter-in-law not to ask for peace tomorrow, go over early, and don't let the family wait, it would be rude.

Zeng Siniang meekly agreed.

Since she got into a relationship with her fifth sister, her position in her mother's family has become more and more stable, her husband respects her, her parents-in-law attach importance to her, and her life is getting better and better. In contrast, the eldest sister of her own family. Originally, the eldest sister was a serious official's wife, a five-grade widow, and she had always been arrogant. Therefore, in his mother's family, he relied on his father's favor to fight against his mother-in-law, eldest brother, and fifth sister-in-law.

Now, the fifth sister has no sisterhood for her at all, and she is not even close to her in many public occasions. made Mrs. Zeng complained by her mother-in-law and neglected by her husband, and now I heard that life at home is very difficult, and she often returns to her parents' house to cry. However, the mother's family is now in charge of the family is Zeng Yukun, who inherited the title, and the main mother is Zeng Yukun's wife Hu and Mrs. Tsuna, who stayed in the city. Without the support of her mother's family, Mrs. Zeng regretted it a long time ago.

However, she regretted it, and went to Zeng Yukun and his wife, and in front of his mother-in-law, they were not willing to deal with it, and they were white and hot and sticky to their cold butts.

Zeng Siniang was glad that she had seen it accurately in the morning, so that she could have today's situation.

After packing up, she freshened up early in the morning, took the maid and the maid, brought thick gifts, and arrived at the Fuchun Marquis Mansion.

So early in the morning, Zeng Yukun, who was supposed to go to the Yamen, was actually at home and was talking in the main room of his wife Hu. This surprised Zeng Siniang.

Zeng Siniang greeted her brother and sister-in-law, but her heart was very uneasy. Looking at my brother's behavior, he should have waited for the fifth sister to come over, so he deliberately did not go to the yamen. It can be seen that as my father-in-law expected, something is going to happen.

Zeng Siniang smiled and greeted her brother and sister-in-law and gave a gift. Most of these gifts are some fine spices, but they are very suitable for this year's festival.
