Chapter 130: Resignation
Fu Chunhou asked nervously: "Yukun, hurry up and tell my father, how to redeem it?" ”
Zeng Yukun helped his father up, invited his father to sit down, got a cup of tea, and gave it to his father to drink, and then said: "We only rely on these three points to think that the court will forgive our sins, which is basically impossible." It is possible that the emperor has forgiven the sins of our entire Zeng family for the sake of Miss Mingyue's face, but father, my sin is not so easy. ”
Fu Chunhou suddenly became anxious again, and he continued to beg his son, Zeng Yukun just shook his head.
Fu Chunhou had no choice but to think blankly.
Zeng Yukun took his father back to the city.
When he returned home, he ignored his father and went directly to his mother's upper room. I saw my wife and sister waiting for my mother to take medicine.
Mrs. Fuchunhou's face has gradually faded, but there is still a distance from health.
Seeing her son come in, Mrs. Fuchunhou was very happy and said, "Yukun, are you back?" Have you seen Miss Mingyue? Did you thank your mother? ”
Zeng Yukun's face softened, and he said to his mother: "Mother, my son has seen Miss Mingyue and thanked her." She said we're a family, why do you say that? ”
After saying this, Zeng Yutong's noodles who were waiting on the side suddenly turned red.
Hu Shi on the side smiled and quipped: "What is my sister shy about?" In a few days, you're going to get married. I don't know how many women envy you, where can I find a good sister-in-law like Miss Mingyue? ”
Zeng Yutong couldn't stand still.
Zeng Yukun said: "Mother, after I met Miss Mingyue, I went to Zhuangzi outside the city and brought my father back. ”
As soon as Zeng Shilun, Marquis of Fuchun, the smile on Mrs. Fuchunhou's face receded, and even Zeng Yutong couldn't care less about being shy: "Brother, is my father back?" Is the third aunt also back? ”
Zeng Yukun was still smiling: "Father is back, but the third aunt has not returned." ”
Hearing this, everyone was surprised.
Zeng Yukun could only tell everyone about the matter, but he didn't say anything about the Wumen division. It's just that Haitang is actually a person from Wumen, so he was arrested by Xingxinglou. Rao was like this, and the three women present were shocked.
After thinking about it, everyone was happy, there was no such big enemy in the house, and they relaxed from their hearts.
Everyone chatted happily. Accompanied by her daughters and daughters-in-law, Mrs. Fuchunhou became more and more happy.
The next day, Zeng Shilun, the Marquis of Fuchun, did something that surprised the civil and military capital of the Manchu Dynasty, he actually asked to resign his title, and asked the court to give the title of Marquis of Fuchun to his son Zeng Yukun, and he wanted to retire outside the city.
Seeing this twist, the emperor glanced at Zeng Shilun deeply, and did not make a sound, and after retreating from the court, he called Zeng Shilun to the Qinzheng Palace.
It is said that after coming out, Zeng Shilun felt as if he had been washed with water.
In the afternoon, the holy decree was issued, and the title of Marquis of Fuchun was given to the prince Zeng Yukun, and the original Marquis of Fuchun, Zeng Shilun, not only did not have the title, but also lost his official position. Moreover, he was to be raised in a manor outside the city.
It's just a few days, and the two nobles who are in the prime of life, Fuchun Marquis and Liguo Gong, have to go outside the city to be honored. This had to make the entire court talk about it.
In Zeng's house, Zeng Shilun had already changed his clothes, and he still had palpitations, he went to his wife's main house for the first time, and called his children and daughter-in-law to the front and said: "When Yutong gets married, after returning to the door, I will move to a manor outside the city to live." This home will be handed over to Yukun and the Hu family. The feed will be handed over to the Hu family. Madame wants to follow me to the suburbs, okay. If you don't want to go, you can stay in the capital. Except for Aunt Qian and Aunt Mo, who have given birth to children, I will take care of the rest and ask them to leave the house. Aunt Qian and Aunt Mo, I will also take them to the suburbs. ”
Everyone is inexplicable about this, and even if the feed is handed over, why do you even have to dispose of your aunt? Although this aunt has not been favored in recent years, many of them are older than Huajiao, how to deal with it?
Zeng Shilun continued: "Yutong, the dowry that your father prepared for you was okay. However, the emperor said, your dowry is still too simple. I don't want to use the money and the grange in the gongzhong, it's reserved for your eldest brother. However, I bought it myself, two houses, six shops, and the business inside is managed by your eldest brother, and the shops are for you, and you keep them for rent. There are also 5,000 acres of land in the south of the Yangtze River, and ten shops in Sioux City, all for you. And the silver will give you a hundred thousand taels. You don't have to thank your father for this, this is a reward from the emperor. It can't be postponed. Ah, by the way, the emperor said that after you get married, bring all these properties to the Qin family and hand them over directly to Miss Mingyue. Well, the 100,000 taels of silver are for you, which is considered a subsidy from the emperor to the Qin family. So, don't think it's your dowry and don't give it out. ”
"Daughter, this is a matter of life and death for my father. Also, those house shops, land properties, etc. were handed over to Miss Mingyue and asked her to deal with them, which was given to her by the emperor. Yukun, you and the Hu family will manage the business in these shops in the future, and you must remember to send the annual profits to Miss Mingyue, and you can't be greedy for a penny. Do you understand? ”
"My father is very sinful, and the people around him are all from the witch sect. This was originally a big crime of stealing the family and exterminating the clan, and the emperor looked at the face of the two brothers and sisters in Yukun, and for the sake of having a heart of repentance for the father, and used this method to let the father forgive the sin. So, you two must keep this in mind. Do you understand? ”
This remark is a bit incoherent, but it probably means that Zeng Yutong and Zeng Yukun understand. and Mrs. Zeng, who was still sick, also understood. Zeng Yutong and Zeng Yukun used to be very angry at their father's spoiled concubine and killing his wife. However, it was their father after all, so they were still shocked when it came to their father's life.
The Pang family hated the most was Begonia and her husband Zeng Shilun. However, no matter what, this is her husband, and she has children and ties between her and him. Seeing that he was incoherent, his eyes were panicked, and his life was in danger, how could she still hate him with a hard heart, so she naturally cared.
Pang asked, "Master Hou, what do you mean?" Begonia was arrested, doesn't the emperor plan to let our family go? Can't I let you go? ”
Zeng Shilun sighed and said, "The sin I committed is too great. In the past few years, Haitang has carried me behind my back, used my name, and used the power of our Zeng family, but he has not done anything less. Just fish and flesh the people, harm people's lives, and deprive other people's property. The key is that she also used my power to subvert the national teacher and the Great Zhou. Isn't this a great sin of treason? Such a big crime, don't say it's me, it's the previous prince, who committed a crime, and now it's not abolished? Confined? ”
As soon as Zeng Shilun said this, the Hu family, the Pang family, and Zeng Yutong were all scared, and only Zeng Yukun was still the same.
