During the raid of the Duanyang Marquis's Mansion, a lot of captive funds and some gold, silver and jewelry that the Marquis Yan had secretly swallowed in his early years were found.

In this regard, Emperor Yanchang ordered severe punishment and showed no mercy.

Old Marquis Yan confessed that night and committed suicide.

Originally, it was a big crime to occupy the land of the emperor's tomb, whoever was exposed would die, Yan Lao Hou Ye had meritorious court merits, and he was also a noble, and there was an unwritten rule in this dynasty that the punishment was not allowed to be done by the prince, and Yan Lao Hou Ye could only commit suicide in order to save face.

As soon as the old marquis Yan died, the title of the Duanyang Marquis Mansion was also confiscated, but this matter was not only the old marquis, Yan Fangfei's brothers also intervened.

In this way, following the old Marquis Yan, several sons and brothers of the Yan family also went to prison.

The evidence of the crime is conclusive, and several sons and brothers also committed suicide in prison.

Encroaching on the land of the mausoleum is an inescapable death penalty.

Seeing that the lively and prosperous Duanyang Marquis Mansion collapsed in a blink of an eye, everyone was not very embarrassed, and repeatedly warned the children in the family to be vigilant and not to cause trouble everywhere.

It seems that because of the experience of the Duanyang Marquis Mansion, those dignitaries who usually love to sell land have also shrunk their tails to be people.

Yan Fangfei was already crying with Mrs. Hou at that time.

"Mother, from now on, we can only rely on each other for our lives......"

They were not implicated in the invasion turmoil, but they have since lost their support. The husband and son all died, and the attitude of the Yan family towards them immediately changed faces.

Due to the fault of the elder brothers above, the concubines of the old marquis Yan were replaced by idle petty officials with no oil and water, and this is the best result for the children of the Yan family.

Who let the Yan family's people just break the law and be punished?

"Mother, what else can we do?"

Yan Fangfei wiped her face, her eyes were red.

Without her father and brother, she would be nothing.

She didn't pay attention to the concubines below at all, and the relationship was usually very ordinary, but now, it's good if those cousins don't resent her.

What else can Mrs. Hou say? She's just a pampered woman who can't do much. said some pale and powerless words of comfort to his daughter's six gods and no master, "The days to come will be long, don't be too sad." ”

Anyway, the Yan family has some industrial savings, and it is not a problem to survive in the capital, but the Yan family is afraid of being excluded after this catastrophe.

As soon as she thought of these things, Mrs. Hou had a headache.

Yan Fangfei was so anxious that she cried again, "Mother, when I went out today, people outside were laughing at me, laughing at me for having no father and no brother, just a waste." ”

"Bold!" Mrs. Hou was very angry, "The Yan family's Zhong Ming Ding Food House, where can they offend?" ”

That being said, the Marquis of the Yan family was removed, and the old Marquis Yan and several sons also lost their lives due to the land invasion case, and the emperor did not ask the Yan family's daughters for their kindness, which does not mean that the Yan family is innocent.

To put it bluntly, who else can afford a family of sinners?

"Mother, Anzhi, he has been ...... me recently" Before the words were finished, Yan Fangfei was forced to ask by Mrs. Hou, "That kid is sorry for you?" ”

Yu Anzhi's identity is too poor, originally she didn't agree to this family business, but the old marquis Yan insisted on fulfilling it, because Yan Fangfei likes it, and Yu Anzhi is also suitable to be a son-in-law to protect Yan Fangfei from being bullied.

Now it seems that Old Marquis Yan took precautions, but forgot that once he fell, Yu Anzhi turned his face ruthlessly anytime and anywhere.

Yan Fangfei shook her head, "No, no, he is very good to me." ”

"Humph! Don't say it, who hasn't seen your mother? As far as Yu Anzhi's ambition is concerned, now he regrets following the Yan family. ”

Mrs. Hou smiled coldly, "If he really loves you, why did he disappear at this time?" I used to want to go in and out of pairs with you, but now I am gone, and I disappear faster than a rabbit. Where is our Yan family sorry for him? ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Hou coughed a few times, she was so angry that her old illness recurred.

Seeing this, Yan Fangfei hurriedly patted Mrs. Hou's back, "Mother, don't be angry, I'm fine with him, it's okay." ”

"Child, you are too young to know what it means to be a person before a person and a person after a person."

Mrs. Hou smiled bitterly, "I've been here with your father for most of my life, do you really think that I haven't seen anyone?" As far as your husband's temperament is concerned, he even dares to abandon the child daughter-in-law he married in his hometown, what dare you not do for a daughter who has lost power? ”

For Sheng Peijun, Mrs. Hou has long known about her existence, but because of Yan Fangfei's face, Mrs. Hou has been holding back, and secretly sent someone to find ways to prevent Sheng Peijun from seeing Yu Anzhi.

Otherwise, Sheng Peijun would not have known until now that Yu Anzhi was the son-in-law of the Yan family.

Thousands of precautions, family thieves are difficult to prevent, Yu Anzhi, a thief, the more she looks at it, the more unreliable she feels.

"Mother, what you said hurts my heart too much."

Yan Fangfei couldn't listen to it, she saw that Yu Anzhi was just right, and with Sheng Peijun's stimulation, she was bound to win Anzhi, and she couldn't let go easily.

Yu Anzhi is her person, and death must be her ghost.

Mrs. Hou wanted to speak and stopped, "Child, listen to your mother, some people are not their own, just let them go." ”

No matter how poor the Yan family is, they have a few catties of iron, and it is more than enough to separate from Yu Anzhi.

"An Zhi will not leave."

Yan Fangfei found that Mrs. Hou refused to let go of what she said, and insisted on forcing her to separate from Yu Anzhi, and she was so anxious that she suddenly panicked, "Mother, Yu Anzhi will be the father of my child." ”

“……”

Mrs. Hou was even more angry with her myocardial infarction.

This kid is dead-eyed, and he won't listen to what he says.

"What about the child," Mrs. Hou pouted, "you are far away from him." ”

In fact, Yan Fangfei didn't know that she couldn't have her own child in this life, this child was a stone girl, and she was destined to have no chance to be a mother.

Let Yu Anzhi be Yan Fangfei's husband, and there are also considerations in this regard.

It is impossible for a high-ranking family with the right family to agree to let Shi Nu be a daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law, but Yu Anzhi's status is low, Yan Fangfei can completely control him, and if he doesn't have children, others can't find any big faults.

Yan Fangfei gagged unconvinced, "Mother, you are still my mother, I want an obedient husband, why don't you want to fulfill my daughter?" ”

"......" Mrs. Hou didn't want to speak, she just wanted to be quiet.

The quarrel of the Yan family can be ignored, and on the other side, when Yuan Lingchao set out to investigate the background of Qinghuan Lily in Chunhua Courtyard, he accidentally learned that there was a secret passage in Chunhua Building leading to the outside of the city.

This news is no less than that, so the drought has been raining for a long time.

Originally, Qing Huan's suspicious points were investigated, and he couldn't see the reason at all.

As for the lily, there is no big problem in terms of eyeliner.

What does it mean to be thirty-fifty-six?

Yuan Lingchao was anxious and had no clue. At this time, a drawing of Yichun Building successfully caught her attention.

The drawings were also found in the antique shop, and they were quite cheap, just a few dollars.

The basic building of Chunhua Courtyard was built on the site of Yichun Building, and there was not much change, and Yuan Lingchao also found in this drawing that when the craftsmen built the house, they built the tunnel.

There are authentics, and there are problems with Chunhuayuan.

"Okay, I'll take a look."

Yuan Lingchao decided to disguise herself as a man and let the four maids stay at home and not come out, and she would come back soon.

The thrush wanted to follow at first, but when Yuan Lingchao promised her to buy her favorite fried chestnuts, she clapped her hands excitedly and sent Yuan Lingchao away.

Yuan Lingchao made up as a pretty man with red lips and white teeth, walking on the road with a high rate of turning heads, holding a folding fan in her hand, turning on the fan from time to time, this kind of graceful and uninhibited demeanor has invisibly hooked many women's hearts.

When she arrived at Chunhua Courtyard, it was obvious that the people behind couldn't help but be a little disappointed, how could a very good person go to Flower Street Willow Lane to have fun?

Mother Wan, who was answering the guests at the door, had her eyes lit up, and grabbed Yuan Lingchao and introduced enthusiastically, "Hey, this little boy, you are really here, tonight we will have the first night auction of Qinghuan in Chunhua Courtyard, you also know that after Miss Qinghuan stood out in our Chunhua Courtyard, she wanted to see Miss Qinghuan's true face a lot, but Miss Qinghuan has words first, and she does not share a room with people who have no virtue and no talent." Over the years, there are famous and surnamed sons and scholars have come to see Miss Qinghuan, Miss Qinghuan has not taken off the scarf, tonight Miss Qinghuan said, if anyone has the ability, the bid will be set high, to be in the same room with her, and can also reach a good time with Miss Qinghuan Mandarin Duck. Don't forget, Miss Qinghuan is still innocent and immaculate, and there are too many people tonight who want to buy the first night. ”

After listening to Mother Wan's tirade, Yuan Lingchao came to a conclusion - Miss Qinghuan must have other plans.

Don't forget, she herself has never been too close to ordinary people, even if she is in the Qinglou, she is still arrogant and cold.

Everyone has curiosity, what kind of person is this Qinghuan, now that she has made a public appearance at a high price and officially entertained guests, she must have an idea in her heart.

Thinking of this, Yuan Lingchao showed a just right smile and asked Mother Wan, "I want to ask Mom, will this Qinghuan girl take off her veil tonight?" ”

"Of course." As soon as Mother Wan spoke, everyone present cheered.

"Miss Qinghuan, I'm waiting for you, you belong to me tonight."

"No, she belongs to me, no one should rob me."

"Get out, you, Miss Qinghuan only likes talented scholars, you are a rude and reckless man, you don't deserve to be with her."

……

If you don't agree with each other, Yuan Lingchao rolled his eyes when he saw this, and his lust was sinky, but if he has this enthusiasm for his wife at home, will there be so many resentful couples?

Yuan Lingchao made up her mind that her future husband could not be a person who loved flowers and grass, and at the same time, he could not be a selfish and arrogant person, and he should put her first everywhere.

While thinking, Yuan Lingchao walked into the hall.

It was overcrowded, and the saffron and lanterns upstairs looked beaming.

casually listened to the jokes of many sons and brothers who came here to have fun, "I don't know if Miss Qinghuan is white or black?" The black ones aren't so cool. ”

I thought it meant fair skin or not, but Yuan Lingchao knew what he was talking about when he heard it, and he was speechless.

"Oh, the black one is not tender, and it is not shrinking enough, let me tell you, I am an old acquaintance in this regard, it is better to find a white one, hehehe, that is the fluttering fairy ......"

Listening to it, Yuan Lingchao wanted to beat people, and he really regarded himself as a nobleman.

But there's no way, the people here are in this tone, if they want to find a person with brains, they won't come here to find a girl in the Qinglou.

Yuan Lingchao suppressed his manic mood and looked left and right while drinking tea.

Wait for Qinghuan, wait for Lily, and see where the tunnels here are.

"Miss Qinghuan is here!"

Someone pointed to the woman in red upstairs.

Compared with the white clothes that she usually likes to wear, Qinghuan at this moment has changed to red, and the jewelry on her head is also very luxurious.

"Miss Qinghuan, I want to see you, please promise me to be with me." A man in a fancy costume is a fanatical follower of Qing Huan, he is bound to win Qing Huan, Qing Huan is talented, beautiful and generous, who doesn't like it?

"No, Qing Huan and I are the best match."

The other was not convinced.

"No, no, no, Qing Huan, a beautiful woman like you should be with a hero like me, those weak scholars can't protect you at all. I'm going to kill a few people. The speaker also clenched his fists, consciously or unconsciously.

"Qinghuan Qinghuan, these people are only for you for a while, and I am for you for a lifetime, please, be with me."

Talking nonsense, anyway, they are begging Qinghuan to favor them, Yuan Lingchao remained silent when he saw this.

Qing Huan is not in a hurry, "I Qing Huan has lived in Chunhua Courtyard for seventeen years, and now I am not a two-year-old child. Mother Wan treats me well, I don't want to pick up customers, she also agreed, I want to get along with the talent, and she also agreed. Now, I have one more request. ”

"If you want to be alone with me, you can share a room with me if you want to defeat everyone present, and then pair up with me and defeat me."

After speaking, Qing Huan chuckled, "I don't know which warrior stands out?" ”

"This ......," someone wondered, "Miss Qinghuan, isn't it the one with the highest price?" ”

"That's it, it's clear that the one with the highest price will get it, why did it become like this?" Some people are not happy to make a fuss.

Qing Huan had expected this situation, and she said calmly: "Qing Huan said, the winner of three games and two wins wins, the one with the highest price is one round, defeating everyone is one round, and defeating me is the last round." Qing Huan is not very demanding, I just hope that I can be alone with the warriors tonight, and I have no regrets. ”

I see! Everyone suddenly realized.

Mother Wan spoke at this time, "The bidding has officially begun, starting with one thousand taels. ”

"Come on, come on, look at me, I'll give 10,000!"

"What is 10,000? Twenty thousand! ”

No one wants to quit this competition, and winning Qinghuan's favor is their victory.

"Fifty thousand!" The son of a wealthy merchant has no fear of money.

"Sixty-five thousand taels, I'll come out!" The son of Shangshu Mansion is also extremely generous.

Yuan Lingchao shook his head, this is clearly to stimulate everyone to contribute as much money as possible.

"Seventy-eight thousand taels!"

"One hundred thousand!"

"Two hundred and fifty thousand!"

Suddenly there was silence.

Two hundred and fifty thousand is already astronomical.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver."
