Luoyang. The Yiyang Hou Mansion, not far from the West Garden, has long since lost the original traffic, and now there is nothing else except for the two mottled Rui beasts, which are still loyally guarding the mansion.

The cold wind blew through the wide streets, and two dead leaves flew into the sky melodiously, which seemed to add to the gloom.

In the cold wind, a patrol team of horses hurried to the sound of horses' hooves. It's just that when the ruling Jin Wuwei on the horse looked up and saw the name on the door of the mansion, he couldn't help but speed up his horse, as if he was hiding from the plague god, and he didn't want to stay here for a moment.

It is also said that the world is impermanent, and last month, it was a place chased by courtiers, but now it has become a place to avoid. Maybe it's time and fate. Who would have guessed that Jiang Qi, who was in the limelight, would fall so quickly.

The trees fell and scattered, and the walls fell and everyone pushed them. There is no stone that does not fall into the well, even if Jiang Qi usually accumulates virtue.

However, there are exceptions to everything, and not everyone avoids Jiang Qi, at least a quarter of an hour later, a carriage drove into front of the mansion, and then the sound of the door sounded.

The person who came was dressed in a wide-sleeved fairy dress, and the pure white fur on the shoulders reflected the long hair, which was particularly good-looking.

"Miss Xun! Why are you here again. When the heavy side door of the Hou Mansion opened, the mottled visitor was stunned for a moment, and smiled bitterly at the figure.

"Uncle Da, why are you? Uncle Da! I've finally seen you, can I go into the house to see my wife? Finally seeing the Jiang family's housekeeper, Xun Xin was overjoyed, and said pitifully.

"Miss Xun! The old man knows that the divorce of the wife will damage your reputation. But Madame is kind and hopes that the young lady will understand. Knowing the reason, Jiang Da, the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, walked out of the mansion and persuaded him.

"Uncle Da, Xin'er knows that Madame is for my good, and she doesn't want to involve the Xun family. But the Jiang family's letter of resignation is not only Xin'er, but also the Xun family and my brother will not accept it. I don't know why the Jiang family retired from Xun Xin, but as she has repeatedly come to the Jiang family, she doesn't want to end this marriage.

"Miss Xun, why are you so stubborn! Well, the old man will make it clear! Now Luoyang is rumoring that the young master of my family is more auspicious this time, and others are avoiding it, why does the young lady still catch up. Now even the servants in the house are gone, and only the old man's family accompanies his wife. Why should the young lady send herself to a dead end? Jiang Da said with a sigh.

"Uncle Nada can share the hardships with Brother Jiang, and so can Xin'er!" Unexpectedly, when the Jiang family was about to dismiss the servants, Xun Xin was shocked and said.

"Miss Xun, your affection, the old man is very moved. Miss Ran was born into a famous family, and she will definitely have a good home in the future. Why be so stubborn, Miss go back. "Seeing the truth in adversity, Xun Xin's indefatigability at the moment, Jiang Da is still very moved. At this moment, he also understood why his wife would choose this Xun family brother for his young master among many women.

"Uncle Da, you know, Xin'er's parents died early, and he has been dependent on his brother since he was a child. Xin'er didn't dare to imagine that one day she would make a family deal with Brother Jiang, a talented person, and she didn't dare to imagine that Mrs. would treat Xin'er as her own, and Xin'er really felt the warmth of the family for months. ”

"Although the Jiang family is in trouble now, since the Jiang family didn't think Xin'er was despicable at the beginning, how can Xin'er bear it now. If Brother Jiang is really killed this time, then Xin'er is also willing to follow him to serve in Jiuquan. Regarding the change in Jiang Da's attitude, Xun Xin moved with affection.

"Miss Xun, since the imperial court issued a holy decree, the people of Luoyang, including some clansmen, have regarded the Hou Mansion as a beast. In the past ten days, the old man has been accustomed to seeing the warmth and coldness of people, and there are really not many people who can not give up. Miss! The old man treats my young master very much, thank you for this love. Xun Xin's true feelings touched Jiang Da, and the sadness of these days has disappeared, at least there is still true love in the world.

"Xin'er only knows that Mrs. and Sister Li'er are good to me, how can Xin'er be ungrateful. or the affection of Uncle Da's master and servant, is what Xin'er should learn. Uncle Da, the letter of appointment that was returned that day was brought by Xin'er, can you let Xin'er hand it over to Mrs.! Listening to Jiang Da's emotional words, Xun Xin couldn't help but be happy and hurriedly mentioned it.

But it's a pity, as soon as he heard the letter of appointment, Jiang Da, who was said to be dizzy, immediately sobered up, and quickly grabbed Xun Xin, who was trying to enter the house, and said: "Miss, the old man knows that Miss is a person with a true temperament, but because of this, he must abide by Madame's wishes." Miss! Since the Jiang family has retired, please respect the young lady. ”

"Uncle Da, you said it just now!!" Unexpectedly, Jiang Da changed his face again in a blink of an eye, and Xun Xin, who had no social experience, was in a hurry.

"Miss, please think more about the Xun family, go back! Madame has already instructed that I will not see you, please go back!! Although Jiang Da is simple-minded and not tactful, his biggest advantage is that he never neglects to carry out his instructions, and even if Xun Xin is tearful at the moment, he is not moved, and he is so hard-hearted.

"Nope! My brother taught Xin'er not to give up halfway, and never give up on what Xin'er believes. Xin'er has to see Mrs. today! "Xun Xin is also a stubborn temper, and if he sees that he is soft, he can't do it, even if he plays a horizontal role. It's just that the pouting looks like she's being coquettish.

It's a pity that our big butler Jiang is a bastard like his young master, and he doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade at all, so he simply didn't explain, took a step back and closed the heavy door of the mansion, leaving only Xiao Xin'er who was at a loss in the cold wind.

was unreasonably shut out of the door by Jiang Da, Xun Xin's tears slipped down his face, how could he have been so wronged since he was a child, and it was after he was dismissed.

But after crying for a while, after wiping away his tears, the stubborn Xun Xin strengthened his beliefs, and secretly vowed in his heart never to give up, no matter what, he would advance and retreat with the Jiang family this time.

In fact, it is not to blame Jiang Da for turning Xun Xin away, when Jiang Qi was summoned and escorted back to Beijing for trial, all the troubles came, and those who came to the door to ask for accounts and looked for things came one after another, that is, the servants went to the street to buy vegetables, and they were all seriously injured and carried back.

Now it is very benevolent and righteous to take the initiative to divorce the Xun family, after all, if Jiang Qi dies, it is impossible to let him be widowed.

From the divorce with the Xun family, it can be regarded that Jiang's mother is starting to do the aftermath for Jiang Qi, and it can also be said that Jiang's mother has made the worst plan.

As a child of the family, Jiang Mufang has also been in contact with many matters, from a brief panic at the beginning, to now calm and calm, and the change is very fast.

In addition, she faced difficulties alone in the early years, even if the family members are avoiding it now, she no longer complains. She wants to use her power to save her son.

Living in Gyeonggi, Luoyang since childhood, Jiang Fang naturally understands some of the darkness of officialdom, and why his son Jiang Qi was imprisoned this time does not have to be difficult to find out the inside story.

But the reason is clear, but it is not so easy to break it. Just like now, although Qingliu has the heart to intercede for Jiang Qi, things have not improved at all, but it is a detrimental move.

Today, when Xun Xin was making trouble outside the mansion, Jiang Mufang received a courtier with a seal in the mansion, and he was none other than the original Luoyang Ling and Zhou Yu's father, who rescued Jiang Qi the most, and served Zhou Yi!

It is said that Zhou Yi is also a person with a true temperament, Jiang Qi only gave him a small credit at the beginning, and now when the world is far away from trouble, it is he who helps Jiang Qi in Luoyang. This love alone can be regarded as Jiang Qi not carrying Zhou Yu in vain.

"Is Mr. Zhou really going to hang up and leave? This is all my son's disaster, and my husband does not have to delay his future with this. In the living room, Jiang's mother said in surprise when she learned that Zhou Yi had resigned.

"Meiyang Jun is serious, in fact, he has long planned to return to Jiangdong, but now that the traitor is in charge, there is no place for him in the court. It's better to leave earlier, otherwise maybe you will be in the dust of Zhang Shizhong that day. ”

Thinking of Zhang Jun, who accused the eunuchs in the court that day and was later beaten out of the main hall, in order to plunder the death prison, Zhou Yi was full of emotion.

"The woman also heard about Zhang Shizhong's incident, and asked the housekeeper to send some money and silk the day before yesterday to express her condolences." Mother Jiang also sighed.

"Of course, it's not that he's greedy for life and afraid of death, if you can change the safety of the court, what if you die like Zhang Shizhong. It's just a pity that everything is useless. Nowadays, many people with lofty ideals have retreated to the mountains and forests. Thinking of the chaotic court, Zhou Yi couldn't help but sigh for a long time.

"Then Mr. Zhou plans to stay in Luoyang, or do you have other arrangements." Seeing Zhou Yi's disheartened appearance, Jiang Fang also knew that it was difficult to persuade, so he had to say along the way.

"After being away from home for a long time, after the matter of Boxiao's son was over, he took his second son back to his hometown in Shu County. Yesterday, I arranged for the housekeeper to return to his hometown to clean up, and Meiyangjun didn't have to worry. Hearing Jiang Fang's tentative meaning, Zhou Yi immediately put down the teacup.

"Mr. Zhou said that he would stay in Luoyang to help my son run. Mr! You've already resigned for this, and I'm afraid it's dangerous to help at the moment. Originally, I thought that Zhou Yi would protect himself by resigning, but when he heard that he was not leaving, Jiang Fang couldn't help but be surprised.

"Meiyangjun doesn't need to worry, although he has resigned, he is also a child of the Jiangdong family, and it is not so easy to have an accident. Besides, Luoyang Ling, it took a lot of time, and all the doors were familiar, and it was convenient to help run. Zhou Yi smiled peacefully and insisted.

"Mr. Zhou, great grace, the little woman remembered. If the child escapes this time, he will not forget the great kindness of Mr. I didn't think that there would be outsiders like this when everyone betrayed their relatives and left, Jiang Fang got up and saluted Zhou Yi.

"Meiyangjun must not be like this, don't say that the son of Boxiao is commensurate with the brother of the child, calling me uncle, it is for the hard work of the son of Boxiao to fight for the country, and my sons and daughters should be rescued with all their might." Zhou Yi hurriedly said.

The little woman said no more than that. Dare to ask Mr. Zhou, is my son saved after these days of exploration? After seeing people's hearts in adversity, Jiang Fang, who was seated, asked.

"I have talked to Shisun Gong, Ma Taifu and others for a few days, and I have also talked about Your Majesty. But it didn't work. It seems that this time the son is in danger. Zhou Yi said in a heavy tone.

"The house is also moving around for a few days, and the little woman also knows that it is powerful, but Mr. Chaozhong should be more aware of the matter, dare to ask Mr., is my son really dead?" I already had the worst plan in my heart, and in the face of Zhou Yi's unoptimism, Jiang Fang asked distressedly.

"Have you ever gotten a reply from General He in the house?" After pondering for a moment, Zhou Yi asked.

"I have come to ask for many times, but the general has not seen it, but the day before yesterday, I visited the general's mansion and accepted the gift." Jiang Fang said honestly.

"Looking at it this way, the general doesn't want to get involved in this matter, and it can also be said that the general doesn't want Boxiao Gongzi to die, but will help at a certain time." Hearing that He Jin had accepted the Jiang family's things, Zhou Yi's eyes lit up.

"Whatever my son says, it was also promoted by the general, and I heard that the general above the court has not impeached my son. The little woman also felt that the Great General would help my son when the matter turned around. Jiang Fang also agreed.

"However, although the general is not among the impeachments of Boxiao Gongzi, whether the son can survive now depends on the thoughts of one person." Although he guessed that He Jinzhi was a little more relaxed, Zhou Yi did not get dizzy, and then said.

"Ten permanent attendants?? But these days, their family has received a lot of benefits, but they have not given an answer. Just like Zhang Rang, my son is his opponent, and he usually fights-for-tat, and it is difficult for him to give up this idea. When it came to the eunuch who brought down his son, Jiang Fang, who had been angry a lot these days, gritted his teeth and said.

"Ten permanent attendants! No, they are just a minion, although the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, but there is a big party on the side, and they don't kill them if they want to. Although he also admitted that Zhang Rang and others were the culprits who framed Jiang Qi, Zhou Yi did not feel that they were the ones who could decide Jiang Qi's life and death.

"Then please sir!" No matter the world or the court, everyone knows that his son was overthrown because he offended the ten permanent servants, but at this moment, hearing Zhou Yi's objections, Jiang Fang couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"To put it mildly, everyone in the world says that His Majesty is mediocre, but it is not. Your Majesty's intelligence is more than ordinary people, this is something that all ministers know, just like His Majesty's earlier exceptional promotion of Bo Xiao, how can no master of great talent do it. Now that the court is chaotic, it is more that His Majesty is lazy and pampered eunuchs. And Bo Xiao's ugly impeachment this time is the impeachment of the Ten Standing Servants, in fact, it is more that they speculate on the holy will. Zhou Yi sighed.

"It's over......" If Jiang Fang was still a little surprised when he heard that the culprit was not the Ten Permanent Servants, then when he heard that the mastermind behind the scenes was the emperor, then this surprise became a fright.

Jiang Fang knew that since ancient times, the monarch wanted his ministers to die, and the ministers had to die, maybe there was still a glimmer of life if he escaped the son of the Ten Constant Demon Servants, but if the emperor wanted his son's life, then the three clans would be lucky. In an instant, Jiang Fang's back, which was originally straight, was paralyzed, and her face became pale.
