Chapter 103: The Counterattack of the Maid in the Room (47)
Not to mention how Lin Peng heard the rumors and ran to Lin Xuan to confirm how he fell ill in bed in despair and sorrow, Chu Yunyun had no time to be idle these days.
After returning to the house, in addition to asking Chu Xu and Qiushui Pavilion to investigate the news of the owner of the hidden weapon, Chu Yunyun directly found Mama Gui and Mama Xu, and asked them to return Chun Tao, Green Willow, and Pink Lotus to the deed of sale, and send someone out of the house, and by the way, Mama Chu, who was still a second-class servant, was also sent out.
Although these people have not rebelled against the master, it is also because she has not been defeated in this life, she can't guarantee what will happen to them in the future, but it is impossible to leave so many hidden dangers around her no matter what, and she is not a virgin. What's more, the family affairs arranged for them are not bad, if they live sincerely, they will not be worse than the days of slavery and maidservants.
Since the news of Heli spread, many people have come to Chu Mansion to see her, Zhou Lanxi even lived in Chu Mansion with great fanfare, saying that her eldest brother opened his mouth and personally escorted her over. No matter how she said that she is also a person who is divorced, her reputation will always be damaged, so that Zhou Lanxi can move over at this time, it is undoubtedly not to say to the world that their Qing Wangfu will firmly stand on her side to support her and support her, and the world will also speculate whether the meaning of the Qing Wangfu also represents the holy will?
The more people who think about it, the more they think, and no one dares to despise Chu Yunyun, not to mention that she is still innocent. After this period of limelight, there are still countless people who want to marry, after all, she can even climb the Qing Palace, and the weight is heavier than before marriage, who doesn't want to get it, the big deal is to support one person in the mansion for nothing, but the benefits she brings are not comparable to those daily expenses.
Chu Yunyun didn't care how those people's minds were twisted, anyway, it was just their own fantasy, and I believe that even if the original owner was there, he would not nod and agree.
The Chu Mansion was not affected by the outside world at all, but was unprecedentedly lively and cheerful. Previously, Tang Yi returned to Beijing from the south, and along the way, she listened to the news of Chu Yunyun after the eldest brother and second brother who went to pick her up outside the city, and heard that the lord of the Qing Palace's Xijun Mansion lived in the Chu Mansion yesterday.
Chu Yunyun looked at the two people laughing and playing in the pavilion, and couldn't help but shake his head helplessly. She had expected that Tang Yi and Zhou Lanxi would be a good match together, but she didn't expect the two to be more in love than she imagined. That day, Tang Yi rushed to her with a protective expression of a teacher asking for guilt, and before Chu Yunqian could speak, he saw Tang Yi pull away Zhou Lanxi, whose eyes were shining, and the two of them didn't know what they said.
Chu Yunyun is very happy, he can finally practice martial arts and study medicine openly, and he doesn't have to be vigilant everywhere when he talks and does things, there are two living treasures around him, and his life is extremely comfortable every day, but the Lin Mansion is in dire straits.
Lin Peng is idle at home, and he doesn't know where he will be put out, and choosing the right place is very important for him in the future. For example, it is also a county order, a rich place and a poor and remote place, that is the difference between heaven and earth. Lin Peng originally wanted to go out to find the few officials who had made good friends with the officials before the will was finally issued, and let them operate for him behind Chu Wen's back, and when he made a comeback, he would be thanked, but he returned in embarrassment. Thinking of the scenery some time ago, Lin Peng was resentful in his heart, but he didn't dare to attack, for fear that these people would stumble him behind his back, but now he has no one to rely on.
Mrs. Lin and Lin Feng also ran into walls everywhere, Lin Feng hated to death in his heart, what is the use of so many exquisite and luxurious jewelry, he can't even enter a decent banquet now, let alone marry a child of a family.
Lin Xuan nested in the courtyard every day after he left, recalling Chu Yunyun's bits and pieces, all of which were her good, and couldn't help but regret it. She takes care of three meals a day, arranging everything for him, and she has long been accustomed to her tenderness and warmth. At this time, I lost it and found that it turned out that unconsciously, Chu Yunyu had integrated into her own life, and she could no longer leave her. After overhearing his subordinates discussing his becoming a wasted person, thinking that everyone in the world knew about what he was desperately trying to hide, Lin Xuan suddenly felt as if he had been drained, and he no longer had any vitality.
In fact, Chu Yunyun didn't expect Lin Xuan to be really useless, she only gave the medicine a few times at the beginning, and after the effect of the medicine, he would soon recover as before, and it would not hinder his life in the slightest. It's just that Lin Xuan always gave himself psychological hints, so he formed a conditional launch, and felt that he really couldn't do it. Especially after hearing the rumors from outsiders, he confirmed that he was useless, and even he no longer believed in himself, but believed in what he didn't have.
Wave after wave of unsettled, some officials jointly played to expose Lin Peng's crimes of embezzlement and bribery, forming a party for personal gain in the past few months, and the evidence was conclusive, making him unable to refute.
After reading the recital, the emperor remembered Chu Wen's temperament, temporarily changed his mind, did not remove Lin Peng's fame, but directly demoted him to Bapin County, sent him to a remote poor county in the southwest, and confiscated all his family property, and executed it immediately after the next dynasty. If you do this, that person should be angry, the person who loves his daughter like his life is really difficult.
Lin Peng looked at the officials who seized the family property everywhere, looked at Lin Xuan who was numb and lost his soul, and watched the mother and daughter of the Lin family crying and crying to snatch back the confiscated luxury jewelry, only to feel that he had lost his ability to speak, he really didn't know how to describe the experience of the past few months, especially in the past half a month, he was no less than falling from heaven and walking in hell.
Originally, after his own operation, he saw that Ma had been promoted, but now he was cleaned up of his family wealth and directly assigned to be a poor county official, which was one level higher than the Jiupin official donated by his father back then. Is this what I got by studying hard and struggling in officialdom for twenty or thirty years?
Chu Yunyun was very aware of the Lin family, especially Lin Peng's current feelings. The higher he stands, the heavier he will fall when he loses everything, not to mention that when he is within reach of success, that kind of pain and regret will torment him all the time, making him annoyed and remorseful. But this is also what they deserve, many things should not be greedy, so do not have such strong desires and ambitions, otherwise they will lose their hearts, and in the end the gains outweigh the losses.
It's just that she didn't expect that there was also the handwriting of the new secretary of the Ministry of War, Xin Cong, and after listening to Chu's father's explanation, Chu Yunyun had to sigh at the wonder of fate.
When Mrs. Lin got carried away, she sneered at Mrs. Pingyuanbo's Xin Rong. Although Uncle Pingyuan said that he was very fond of the new concubine, it was just his plaything for a while, how could he let her override the main room, and even if Xin Rong's maiden family was not in the capital, it was not something that he could offend as a declining uncle.
Xin Cong had been serving as governor in other provinces before, and this year he just returned to Beijing at the end of his term, which coincided with the advance of the secretary of the military department, so the emperor directly issued a decree to mention Xin Cong as the secretary of the military department, and immediately returned to Beijing to take office.
In the past, Uncle Ping Yuan might have thought that Xin Cong's whip was beyond his reach, and it was okay to occasionally indulge on weekdays, but now it is very different, after receiving the news, he has very consciously disposed of the little concubine. Xin Rong has seen through Uncle Pingyuan's personality for more than ten years, but for the sake of a pair of children, as long as he doesn't go too out of line, he doesn't know what he does. It's just that some people really deserve a lesson, but not all cats and dogs can step on her.
