Speaking of Qin Xiaolin, who failed to take Qing'e away from Feng's family, he was furious and couldn't chase him to Shuntian Mansion, but he didn't know if Qing'e left Jiangning with Feng Juncheng.

It is not known to him where Qing'e went that night, and it is speculated that she followed Feng Juncheng away, but she can't come up with evidence, so it is not good to go viral in anger and annoy the Feng family.

Master Feng only said that he had persuaded Feng Juncheng by himself, and he said that he knew in his heart, and he would weigh it clearly, and he should not go to Shuntian Mansion to sue the Qin family.

When Qin Peiyi heard this, she wanted to get angry and found that she was a bad move, which made the Feng family take advantage of the loophole, "What is this called?" Was that persuaded or not? Will he trouble my Qin family when he goes to Shuntian Mansion? ”

"Persuaded." Old Man Feng smiled, "Brother Qin, look at it, will the Metropolitan Procuratorate send you a letter then." ”

Qin Peiyi simply gritted her teeth, "Brother Feng, have you forgotten that the two of us are grasshoppers on the same rope?" ”

Old Man Feng bowed his head, "But what is the use of that unfilial son not listening to me?" He got up and ordered the eviction, "Feng Juncheng is no longer my son, I don't recognize him as a son." ”

Afraid that Qin Peiyi still wouldn't understand this, Old Man Feng said coldly, "You and I are grasshoppers on the same rope, he and I are not on the same rope." Even if something happens to me and you, the fire won't be able to burn Shuntianfu's body. ”

Qin Peiyi was furious, "You are forcing me to be unfavorable to Ling Lang!" ”

Master Feng smiled instead, "This is up to Brother Qin to think clearly, I have told him what to say, only he knows whether he is persuaded or not, but if you want to yin him, he will definitely pull your Qin family into the water immediately." ”

After Qin Peiyi slammed the door and left that day, Master Feng sat at the table and didn't make a sound for a long time.

Shuntianfu is more than a long acacia, the tree is tall, the flowers are tender and yellow, this tree is clearly long in the south, it is not as tall as here, it is probably here that the land is vast and sparsely populated, not as prosperous as Jinling Qinhuai area, so the land is wider, the tree is also higher, and even the sky has become light and far away.

Qing'e opened her eyes early in the morning, put her hands on the side of her face, and looked at the room through the Hunan tent, and saw that the cabinet of Luodian was stacked in front of the makeup, and the translucent diorama was diagonally facing the bed, only a pair of her feet could be seen, leaning outside the quilt, moving, and the gauze tent of the mirror also moved.

This room is not as spacious as it was in Jiangning, and the furnishings are simple, but even the sun also favors her window, and the warm yellow that comes in is cast under her bed.

Ru Ru poked her head out from behind Qing'e, her little head slept in a mess like a chicken nest, and after driving for so long, it was rare to get a good night's sleep, and her eyes were swollen like small fish looking at the sky in a water tank.

"Qing'e..."Ru Ru buried her face in Qing'e's waist, she obviously slept head to head last night, and now she rolled around in the bunk, hugged Qing'e, raised a leg and wrapped it around her, rubbing her shirt straight up.

The little feet rubbed on Qing'e's belly, warm and slippery, and went up to smell Qing'e's fragrance, Ruru was satisfied, her little hand reached into her mouth, her eyelids closed a little bit, and she fell asleep again.

Feng Juncheng came in from outside the house, and saw this scene through the tent, Qing'e took a little quilt and covered Ruru, and lowered her head to take a sip on the top of her hair.

Qing'e turned her face to see him, reached out and lifted the bed curtain, pulled the corners of her mouth and whispered to him: "As soon as you came in, I was still thinking, should I call you uncle here, or call you an official." ”

"Both

Good. Feng Juncheng sat down beside her, dressed in a crimson official uniform, but he was not yet wearing a black veil, and his hairline was tied with a wipe of his forehead, which made his face white. He put her hand in the palm of his hand, and saw that Ru Ru couldn't help but laugh, "How can you be like a little bear cub, and you have to sleep on you." ”

Qing'e moved her head on the pillow and pulled her hand back from his palm, "I just arrived, and I'm going to return to my life today?" ”

"Let's go to the yamen of the ministry first." He knew what she was worried about, "The Qin family's case has not yet been clarified, and it will not be easily impeached." This case is related to the tea law, involving a wide range of issues, now I have to come up with evidence to play long live the lord, and wait for the Metropolitan Procuratorate to start the investigation from the prefect of Hangzhou and the imperial history of the tea tour that went south in previous years. ”

Qing'e was afraid of the Qin family's retaliation, but she didn't speak, she could neither encourage him to let go and investigate, nor persuade him not to investigate.

As soon as his eyes were closed, "Go ahead, do whatever you want." When you ask someone to testify, I will help you testify. ”

Why did he need her to come out to testify, the evidence and testimony that should have been collected in Qiantang had already arrived in Shuntian Mansion with the subordinate officials, and using the official title to pressure her to go down the mountain was nothing more than a way to coax her to go along. Is it only allowed for her to lie to him, and he is not allowed to bluff her?

Feng Juncheng leaned over and kissed her two red lips when she woke up, and scratched Ruru's little face with his knuckles, "Don't worry, the last thing I want to see is that you and Ruru will be wronged again." ”

Qing'e opened her eyes abruptly, opened an arm that was not suppressed by Ruru, and wanted to hug him. Feng Juncheng smiled slightly, bowed down with his hand on the black yarn, and his chin was on her round shoulder.

Qing'e asked him softly, "What good do I have?" Well? ”

Feng Juncheng also replied softly: "Hello, if I were a woman, I would like to be a woman like you." ”

"If I were a man, I would hate you to death." Qing'e pretended to be arrogant, but reached out to wrap her arms around his waist, "Because you are so good, you may not know how good you are, you are the best man in the world." ”

The Hunan curtain stirred with the breeze outside the door, the figures in the tent overlapped, whispering, Ruru was disturbed in her sleep, her little feet moved slightly, General Hua took advantage of Hongyan's unpreparedness, quietly slipped into the wing room with his tail between his legs, and curled up in a corner of the bed to sleep in the sunshine.

The officials of the Shuntian Mansion hold the promotion and demotion of hundreds of officials in their hands, and the atmosphere of the Ying Tianfu is different, the yamen of the Shuntian Mansion always has a tight string, fortunately, there is no imperial examination and promotion assessment at this time, so it is not too busy.

Feng Juncheng compiled a thick pile of observations and hears of the southbound governor into a book, and sent it to the celebrant early in the morning to wait for the emperor to review it. Zeng Tingguang, the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials, learned that Feng Jun had arrived in Beijing as an adult, and sent someone to send an invitation to his home, inviting him to have a light meal at home.

The person who delivered the letter went to the gatehouse of Feng's house, vaguely heard the movement of children frolicking in the door, and hurriedly withdrew, looking up at the plaque, it was Xiao Feng's family, it was less than a year, and it was impossible to recognize the wrong way.

The porter saw that his face was full of astonishment, and immediately smiled: "It's not wrong, it's not wrong, the laughing child in the door is the daughter of the master in Jiangning's hometown, and he also took it this time." ”

These words are like a big thunderbolt, and they also split on Zeng Tingguang's head, this Zeng Tingguang was mentioned before, he is the person who recommended Feng Juncheng to enter the ministry, he values Feng Juncheng very much, he has the grace of knowing and encountering, and the most important thing is Feng Juncheng's personality.

Although Zeng Tingguang is not old-fashioned and conservative, he is also from a scholar family, and he is arrogant and looks down on it

Some of the workers are scheming and cultivating interpersonal people.

Feng Juncheng has said that he has no children

, There is no wife room in Jiangning, this Zeng Tingguang originally wanted to wait for him to come back from the governor of the south and introduce him to a marriage, which Cheng thought, go back and the children will fall to the ground, and they can run and jump and frolic in the courtyard.

Zeng Tingguang twisted his beard, and his nostrils exhaled, "This Feng Shiqian, such an important matter is also hidden from me, if I don't send someone to his house to deliver a message, I'm afraid that I will be kept in the dark by him." ”

His wife was the lord of Ronghe, and at this time, she brought a plate of soup and fruit to his hand and slapped him, "Are you his father?" I'll tell you everything. With that, he raised his head to tease the bird under the corridor and threw a small piece of Pinpo fruit into the birdcage.

The two have no children under their knees, and only one married daughter, so the mansion is empty, only a middle-aged couple remains, and occasionally students come to visit the mansion.

This night, Feng Juncheng asked someone to send a letter to Zeng Tingguang's mansion, and asked Zeng Lao to come to his mansion tomorrow, and he was mainly a guest.

Zeng Tingguang snorted, "I want to see what kind of banquet he is arranged." ”

It was just a homely meal, Qing'e knew that Feng Juncheng was going to invite a big man to come to the house, so she specially asked Zhao Qi to go to the kitchen to stir-fry vegetables, stir-fry a few southern dishes with their northern ingredients, and show a hand to these officials and masters in Beijing.

She also followed around the kitchen, pointing out Zhao Qi, and occasionally stealing a bite. If there is a maid to move the vegetables, ask the maid what is being said in front of him, and whether he is eating well. The maid said that she was standing far away, but she couldn't really hear it, and she vaguely heard that she was talking about some tea house in Qiantang.

Qing'e was really stunned, biting the duck leg that had just come down from the plate, and also wanted to listen to it.

Feng Juncheng explained the cause and effect of the Qiantang tea tax case to Zeng Tingguang, and after Zeng Tingguang heard it, he really realized that there must be a bigger hidden truth behind this case.

"A tea businessman has such a big influence in Qiantang. Besides, the prefect of Hangzhou, the whole case seems to have nothing to do with him, but the Qin family can have such a power, and it will definitely have something to do with him, the prefect who is hiding behind his back and secretly operating. Zeng Tingguang took a sip of wine, "I have seen a lot of this kind of case, corrupt officials fill their pockets and cover the family business, it is not difficult to investigate, it depends on whether Your Majesty wants to investigate it." Are you going to be a stranger? ”

Feng Juncheng bowed, "Just wait for Your Majesty's approval and let the Metropolitan Procuratorate investigate this case." He paused, "There is another matter, although it is my family matter, but it is also somewhat involved in this case." ”

Zeng Tingguang saw him pick up the wine and pour himself wine, and said in his heart that he was going to confess to himself, put down his chopsticks and wait for him to explain, most likely for the child who grew out of thin air.

Feng Juncheng said: "For some reason, my father seems to be a little protective of the Qin family. ”

Although Zeng Tingguang didn't hear what he wanted to hear, he also frowned, "Where to start?" ”

Feng Juncheng's eyes moved downward, and he said with a heavy heart: "He didn't allow me to investigate this case, it didn't look like he was simply worried. ”

Zeng Tingguang also put other things behind him, and looked at the man in front of him again, "Since you have this conjecture, why do you still mention this case in the official document of the admonition?" He moved the dishes and chopsticks, pretending to be inadvertent, "You go south to inspect Zhejiang, which is Your Majesty's eyes and hands in Zhejiang, if you don't mention this case, Your Majesty will not know." ”

Feng Juncheng smiled, "The crimes committed by the Qin family are too numerous to mention, it's not that I can't put them down without mentioning them for a while." ”

Zeng Tingguang said: "As soon as you say it, I think about it, there is a case of bullying women in the first place, if you don't investigate it now, there will be similar cases to Shuntian Mansion in the future, and the long live lord may have to treat you as a superintendent."

Charges of incompetence. ”

"Exactly,

What's more......" Feng Juncheng paused,

didn't say it, if he had a merit in this case, if Master Feng was really involved with the Qin family, he would have room to ask for forgiveness.

It was about his Feng family's father and son, and the truth had not yet been ascertained, Zeng Tingguang couldn't say anything, so he pulled it away and said, "How did you decide the case of the people's woman?" How was it judged in the end? How is she now, and can she be properly accommodated? ”

Feng Juncheng was embarrassed and said: "This case is not well decided, my governor is weak when he arrives in Qiantang, so she is wronged, and she can only wait for the Qin family to be completely punished, and then return her innocence." ”

"She's not suing again?"

Feng Juncheng's face was a little heavy, "I won't sue again." ”

Zeng Tingguang didn't know the inside story, but said: "I thought that according to her leading posture, she was wronged in Qiantang and found Ying Tianfu, and now she was wronged in Ying Tianfu, so she should sue Shuntian Mansion." ”

“… She is indeed in Shuncheonfu at the moment. ”

Ru Ru went crazy all the time, slept for an hour, woke up and didn't see her father, sat on the bed and cried sadly, Shi's mother wanted to take her to Qing'e, but just after passing through the flower hall, Ru Ru heard Feng Juncheng's voice, so she ran over regardless of it.

She came at the right time, Feng Juncheng was worried and didn't know how to speak, dismissed Shi's mother, hugged Ruru on her lap, Ruru's eyes were still red, and when she saw a table of good dishes, her tears had already dried up.

She leaned over and reached out, "Master, Ruru wants to eat duck legs." ”

Feng Juncheng pretended to be calm and first gave Ru Ru a duck leg in his hand, and then wanted to find another leg for Zeng Tingguang, but he turned it over, but he didn't find it, so he had to say: "This is Ru Ru, the daughter of me and the Li family." ”

Zeng Tingguang's head flashed with a glimmer of inspiration, and his heart was originally such a daughter, not a relative, but a stepdaughter who was friendly with the woman and recognized.

Therefore, he only beat his chest and paused, "You are so confused, you actually have a secret affection for that woman, and you will bring people back to Shuntian Mansion!" At first, I thought that I would wait for you to come on tour south and protect a family affair for you, so that you could start a family without worries, but I praised you here, saying that you are sympathetic to the people and love the people like hurt, you are good, how dare you do everything yourself! ”

Feng Juncheng was a little embarrassed, "Zeng Shilang, Ruru is my biological daughter. ”

Ruru blinked and gnawed on the duck leg.

Zeng Tingguang was impatient, thinking that he was hindering the presence of the little girl, but he also softened his voice, "Such a big child can't understand this." ”

"This is really my daughter."

Zeng Tingguang drank some wine and seriously compared with Feng Juncheng, "You have been going south for less than a year, and you can't give birth to a four-year-old daughter." ”

Speaking of which, he suddenly took a turn of the bend, four years old, and that was before he Tanhua and the first Shuntian Mansion came.

The two looked at each other, Zeng Tingguang was in his forties, and he didn't catch a sip of wine, and his face turned red with choking.!
