Chapter 30: The Seizure of the Title

The Yangning Hou Mansion occupies half of Yangning Street, and there are also two official mansions next to it, but it is far from the Hou Mansion. Both the east and west sides of the street have wooden torii arches built more than 100 years ago when the mansion was built, and despite their age, they are still quite beautiful after years of repairing and painting. The archway in the east of the street is said to be Chonghe, the archway in the west of the street is said to be the festival of righteousness, it is said that it is the inscription of an important minister at the time of the founding of the country, after many years, the big character of the dragon flying and the phoenix dance still often attracts the literati and ink writers from other places to stop and watch.

At this moment, Chen Lan's carriage passed down from the west archway, but it did not enter the main gate, but stopped in front of the west corner gate. The two coachmen skillfully supported the wheels with square sticks, and then unloaded the mules that were pulling the cart. Immediately after, eight sturdy little men came out, divided into front and back, and actually pulled the cart in through the west corner gate with manpower. After walking straight along the road for a while, and turning another corner, the car stopped at a hanging flower gate.

Before he could get out of the car, Chen Lan heard a shouting and shouting, opened the curtain of the car and took a look, only to see Liu Qing, the housekeeper he had seen before, running over like a gust of wind, passing by the car, he didn't have time to stop at all, and said straight to a mother-in-law next to the weeping flower door: "Quick, go and inform the old lady and the second lady, the second master is back, and the person has already passed the Jieyi Fang in the west!" ”

Hearing the news, not only Chen Lan was taken aback, but Chen Yan and several girls in the car were also stunned, and several mothers-in-law next to the weeping flower door did not react for a while. After a long while, one of the mothers-in-law came to her senses, hurriedly picked up a skirt and turned around and ran. Liu Qing stood there and wiped the sweat on his head, turned his head to see the car, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Third Miss, Fourth Young Master."

The eight little guys pulling the cart had all retreated knowing the opportunity, and Su Mu Pepper, who got off the car behind, hurriedly rushed over, and helped Chen Lan get out of the car with a pedal, but Chen Yan who was behind jumped down directly, and asked, "You mean, the second uncle is back?" ”

"Yes, thank God, I finally came back safely, after all, the second master is in prison, and now he is very weak, so he has to prepare his shoulder to enter the door." Liu Qingnian is not very old, but he is the housekeeper who was personally promoted by the Zhu family, and he was originally only superficially respectful to the helpless sister and brother in the long room, but in the past few days, he knows that the limelight is wrong, so he has a little courtesy on his face, "It's just that there is no news in advance, and I haven't had time to prepare." ”

"It's okay." Chen Lan smiled and nodded, and then quietly took Chen Yan's hand, "Let's not block here, Qin Fang, you take Sumu Pepper back to the Splendid Pavilion first, Hongluo, you follow me and the fourth brother to the Lixiang Courtyard to see the old lady first." ”

After the assignment was completed, a cadre entered the Hanging Flower Gate, and the little servants who followed Chen Yan naturally stayed outside. All the way inside, Chen Lan saw that the house was already in chaos, some were shouting happily, some were whispering, and some were hurriedly avoiding when they saw their sisters and brothers coming, but few people were passing by to salute. It wasn't until I entered the hall in front of the Tatexiang Courtyard that there was still some chaos inside, and the green calyx came out in person to scold a few words, and the scene was better.

Although such good news came from outside just now, Zhu's face was not happy, and when she saw Chen Lan and Chen Yan coming in to salute together, she only waved her hand lightly, and didn't even ask about the situation in the temple. Chen Lan thought that it was not the right time at this time, so he sent the things given by Monk Zhiyong, and did not mention the experience of meeting the King of Jin, but according to Zhu's words, Chen Yan sat down on the chairs on the side respectively. Not long after, another girl hurriedly broke the curtain and came in, curtsied, and said, "Old lady, the second lady took the second lady and the fourth lady directly to the second door." ”

"They're anxious."

Zhu took the tea brought by Yu Shao, frowned after taking a sip, and said unhappily, "Why is this tea so light?" ”

Seeing this, Yu Shao hurriedly pleaded guilty, and hurriedly touched the small bowl to rebrew it, and the rest of the people in the room didn't dare to make a sound. Seeing Zhu's expressions and words, Chen Lan knew that the old lady must not have known in advance, so he couldn't help but glance at Chen Yan.

Chen Yan said before that after seeing the people of King Jin, he also mentioned the matter of his second uncle Yang Ninghou Chen Jiu, but King Jin only comforted him a few words, but Luo Xu squinted at Yang Jinzhou with his eyes, and as for Yang Jinzhou, he said lightly that everything has its own holy judgment. Looking at it that way, King Jin is afraid that most of them don't know about it, but that Yang Jinzhou is very likely to know! Luo Xu had just rushed back and pointed out that the fan was his imitation of the handwriting of the holy hand Liu, and he left the last sentence, and he may have already gotten the news.

If this is the case, the two people who should know about this most are actually kept in the dark?

After waiting for a long time, there was finally a sound of talking outside the house, and after a while, Yangning Hou Chen Jiu entered the house with difficulty with the support of the two girls. After only three days in prison, he looked as if he had changed into a different person, his face was blue or white, and his speech was a little unpleasant.

"Old lady...... Son, son is back. ”

Zhu Shi still kept a straight face, and said sharply: "After this incident, you should be more vigilant in the future!" Our family has been loyal for generations, this title has been hereditary for many years, some have been imprisoned for losing battles, and some have been imprisoned for missing dates, but only the word greedy ink has not been involved! Everyone knows that Emperor Taizu treats the nobles the most, and he is a Zhuangtian and a hereditary title, and you still covet those two little money, what kind of reputation do you spread out......"

The more she spoke, the louder she became, and the rest of the room couldn't sit still, and stood up one by one. Chen Lan looks like he is looking at his nose and nose, but in fact, he is looking at the second room and the family, the second uncle Chen Jiu is already kneeling on the ground, his head is very low, and he can't see any expression at all, and Mrs. Ma in the back is snow-white, if it weren't for the support of Zhu Mother, it seems that she will fall down at any time. And Chen Bing was holding Chen Yun's arm tightly, looking at Chen Yun's appearance of biting his lip, he was afraid that his strength would not be small.

It wasn't until the training was enough that Zhu took a long breath, and then said lightly: "It's good to come back, your daughter-in-law has hardly been sick in a hurry for your business, and the second and fourth girls are also restless all day long...... By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what the hell is going on with you, and now that you're out, what else can you say? ”

Just now, the Zhu family was only concerned about venting the evil fire in their hearts, and they didn't ask about this until the end, but the other people in the room were already waiting extremely anxiously. However, what made everyone even more uneasy was that Chen Jiu, who was kneeling there, spit out a few words, but he didn't say a word for a long time.

"What the hell is going on, manly man, don't spit on your mother-in-law!" Zhu instinctively felt bad, and stood up for a while, and then almost fell, or Zheng's mother next to her quickly helped her, but she didn't care about this, and asked angrily and anxiously, "You should say it quickly!" ”

Seeing that the second uncle Chen Jiu was still hanging his head, Chen Lan's heart gradually sank. However, when she caught a glimpse of the claw dagger on Chen Yan's waist, she unconsciously retracted her hand into her sleeve, pinched her palm with her long nails, and her breathing finally stabilized again. At this moment, she finally heard Chen Jiu spit out something in a voice lighter than a mosquito.

"Today...... Today, the emperor personally went to Beizhen Fusi for interrogation, scolded his son, and then said...... said that the son lived up to the reputation of his ancestors, if it wasn't for the merits...... After the emperor left, he came to the holy decree again, and let his son out, but ...... But he took the knighthood! ”

These words are not so much a pinch of the head and a tail, but it is better to say that there is no head and no tail, but everyone present heard it clearly. However, because she heard it clearly, Mrs. Ma finally couldn't stand it anymore and fell directly on Mother Zhu, while Chen Bing, who was holding Chen Yun's arm, exclaimed, staggered back a few steps, and then shouted loudly: "No, this is impossible!" ”

It was the Zhu family, when he clearly heard the word "winning the title", he still sat on the Taishi chair all of a sudden. Although she said that she wanted to support the long house, if the title came too quickly, and the top and bottom were not complete, then it was very likely that there would be a situation of disconnection - for more than a hundred years, there were not ten but eight titles that were shelved because of this, and every time a new monarch ascended the throne, there would be descendants who proposed to attack the knight, but the final result was still shelved.

Besides, today's King of Jin went to Huguo Temple was arranged by her at the request of Princess Jin, and Chen Jiu's matter didn't even get a rumor, so she lost her title so quickly, what should she do with her plans? If there is no title of Marquis of Yangning in this family, how can his daughter suppress those snakes, snakes, scorpions in the Korean Mansion, and the matter of the Jin King's selection of the second concubine will not be able to interfere! How can it be so fast, why is it so fast!

"Old lady, old lady!"

Seeing Zhu sitting there dumbfounded, unable to move, Zheng's mother didn't even respond to a few screams, and her face turned pale with shock. At this moment, she couldn't care about that much, and ordered repeatedly: "Come on, quickly help the second master and the second lady back to the room!" ”

Seeing that a few girls tried their best to put out Chen Jiu, who was kneeling on the ground crying and laughing, and Mrs. Ma, who was limp and limpable, Chen Bing wanted to say something, but Chen Yun hurriedly dragged her away. Although Chen Qing and Chen Han in the third room are grandsons, they have always been invisible people in the Lixiang Courtyard, so they all looked at Chen Xi with their eyes, but Chen Xi got up and retired. Zheng's mother didn't have time to pay attention to these, so she let the people in the third room leave quietly, and hurriedly asked people to ask for a doctor, and the house was in chaos for a while.

Faced with this sudden farce, Chen Lan stood there silently, and suddenly felt that someone was pulling his sleeve. Seeing that it was Chen Yan, she pondered for a moment, and then gently patted him on the shoulder.

"You go back to Fangfei Pavilion first, and I'll take care of the old lady here."

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and then walked outside the room. The moment he stepped out of the threshold, he couldn't help but look back at his sister again, and finally understood in his heart what it meant to be both prosperous and loss-in. If the title of the family is really gone, he will only be twelve years old after the New Year, how can he protect himself and his sister?
