Chapter 71: The Counterattack of the Maid in the Room (15)

"Speaking of which, something happened this morning, it is estimated that Lin Peng is sitting on his head now. Chu Wen smiled when he thought of the early dynasty, and then told them what had happened.

It turned out that today there was indeed a royal history to impeach Lin Peng, and he was involved in him on charges of not governing his family strictly, teaching his children no way, messing up the rules and etiquette, ignoring the guidelines, and deceiving his superiors and subordinates, which scared Lin Peng so much that he sweated like rain, and he was paralyzed on the ground and did not dare to raise his head.

Yesterday, in one day, various versions of rumors were flying all over the sky, which had greatly exceeded Chu Yunyun's prediction, and sure enough, gossip is human nature, regardless of time and region, plus there have been no major events at home and abroad recently, everyone has long been idle and panicked. Originally, the affairs of a five-grade official's mansion were not worth everyone's attention, but unfortunately now his in-laws are the Chu family, and the foreign family is the Lu family, which makes some upper-class families also start to be interested. Under the effect of going up and down, and under word of mouth, the matter spreads bigger and bigger, and the final result is that it deviates even more from the truth.

Whether it is rumored that Lin Xuan and Tongfang are true love, or he was framed by Tongfang's design, it is a fact that the Lin family broke the rules, and it is also a fact that the Lin family deceived and concealed it. The imperial historians who were so idle that they almost went to manage the ranks of livestock heard the wind and their eyes were bright, but no matter what the process was, they had already listed Lin Peng's crimes one by one, and they only waited for the early dynasty to fulfill their sacred duties, lest someone always sour them that the imperial history had nothing to do, and there was no idle job that could interfere in human and animal affairs.

Chu Wen has long been clear about what the imperial history is doing, but he is not sure what his daughter has in mind, after all, what Mama Gui said is just a paraphrase, and she still has to hear her thoughts in person. So he didn't protect Lin Peng much, but he wouldn't let him be removed from his official hat in court, how to say that he is still Yu'er's nominal father-in-law now. Chu Wen delayed on the grounds that he should not be biased and biased, and that he wanted to investigate and collect evidence.

The emperor has good ears and eyes, and he also heard about it yesterday. He already valued the Chu family and the Lu family very much, and Chu Wen didn't say that Lin Peng was directly innocent, so he wanted to go back and ask the girl of the Chu family before making a decision. He was also happy to be a favor, so he asked Lin Peng to go back to his house for the time being, and wait for the investigation to be clear.

Lin Peng relieved himself when he heard Chu Shangshu speak, and he didn't dare to complain that he didn't immediately protect himself well, at least he didn't have to be in the court, and there would always be room for maneuver before the matter was decided.

finally got to the next court, and wanted to say a few words to Chu Shangshu, but he didn't even look at himself and left directly. Lin Peng returned to the mansion anxiously, only hoping that Chu Yunyun would say a few more kind words in front of her father in front of Xuan'er and help them through this difficult time. At this time, he couldn't take care of Mrs. Lin sitting next to him, it was all caused by this ignorant woman, if the Lin family couldn't escape this time, he would definitely make her pay a terrible price.

Chu Yunyun only felt happy after listening to Father Chu's words, but it was too cheap for him to let Lin Peng fall like this, so he still had to give him some hope. "Can Daddy help, just let him not lose his official position, after all, what the imperial historians said is true, and we can't do things that refer to the deer as a horse. ”

Chu Wen nodded her nose amusedly when she heard this, and sure enough, she was worthy of being his daughter. Chu Xu and Lu Shuang also shook their heads with a smile, and then revealed the matter and talked about a light topic.

On this day, Chu Yunyun had a very happy life, and she hadn't eaten this exquisite food for several years, and it was worthy of the name. And the Chu family felt very sorry for her, and tried their best to create a brisk atmosphere, so that the corners of her mouth didn't fall all day. This warm and warm atmosphere is very similar to her own life, and it also comforts her soul in getting along with the Chu family.

Chu Yunyun looked at Lu Shuang, thinking of Old Madam Lu, and he didn't know what kind of illness she had. While the Lu family enjoys the ultimate glory, it also faces various crises and provocations, but the Lu family has been able to stand tall for decades, in addition to the emperor's attitude, it is also closely related to the two mountains of the Lu family. The frontier is guarded by General Lu, and the husband is the pass, while in Beijing, there is Mrs. Lu in charge, and the women are not allowed to shave their eyebrows.

"Cousin, what do you want to say?" Lu Shuang asked funny when he saw that Chu Yunyun only looked at him and didn't speak.

"When I saw my third cousin, I remembered that my grandfather and grandmother were here, and I don't know what happened to the old man. Chu Yunyun said.

"It is true that my grandfather has been in the border for many years and has not returned, but he is still old and strong, his body is very healthy, and his character is good to stay in the frontier, but after all, he is old, and he should return to Beijing next year. As for the grandmother, even if the cousin is married, she can go to see her old man's house, and she will be very happy to come to the Lin Mansion, and when the time comes, the cousin will know the grandmother's situation if she goes to see it in person. Lu Shuang looked at her and said.

Chu Yunyun had this intention, so everyone discussed the schedule of going to Lufu, and it happened that seven days later was the birthday of the second uncle, although it was not a whole birthday, but the family could also take advantage of this to make up and have a lively time.

When it was approaching evening, no matter how much Chu Yunyu coveted the warmth here, he should go back to his husband's house, otherwise it would not be in line with etiquette and would be used to talk about things. borrowed a few medical books from Uncle Yu, got into the carriage under the eyes of his family, and Chu Yunyun and his party set off back to the Lin Mansion.

As soon as he entered the gate of the Lin Mansion, Chu Yunyun was invited to the main hall by Manager Zhang, who had been waiting there for a long time. Manager Zhang is the chief steward of the Lin Mansion and Lin Peng's most trusted subordinate. Chu Yunyun smiled slightly, seeing that he, a busy man, was waiting at the door in person, it could be seen that Lin Peng was restless at this time.

After arriving at the main hall, Lin Peng and Mrs. Lin sat on the top seat, and the two of them smiled affectionately at her when they saw Chu Yunyun coming in, Mrs. Lin also greeted her, and Chu Yunyun was also polite in an orderly manner. Joke, if you're not in a hurry, then I'm not in a hurry, anyway, she doesn't have much else, there's a lot of time, and she'll boil it slowly.

Seeing that the sky had darkened, Lin Peng couldn't sit still, he was really worried about today's day, and he urgently needed a letter to calm his heart, "Daughter-in-law, what do you have to say when your in-laws go back to the next court?"

"The daughter-in-law was about to report to her father-in-law after her mother-in-law's question," Chu Yunyun looked at Lin Peng respectfully, "Daddy has already said the things of the early dynasty, but those facts are there and cannot be denied, and at that time, those imperial histories were menacing, although the lethality of this kind of person is not great, but it is not good to be entangled by them, so Daddy did not touch it, after all, the saint is still watching there." ”

Lin Peng nodded when he heard this, he could understand this, he only cared about the things after that.

"The daughter-in-law has been begging her father to find a way all day, and she has come back a little late," Chu Yunyun saw that Lin Peng waved his hand and didn't care about her coming back at this hour, not to mention that it was not dark when she came back, even if she came back after dinner, they couldn't say anything, but she had to make it clear. Finally, before leaving, my father relented and said that he would come forward to deal with the matter, but those facts could not be denied after all. The official hat can be kept, but I am afraid that my father-in-law will have to suffer a little. ”

Lin Peng immediately relieved when he heard this, and Chu Wen agreed to come forward. It's just a little bitter, with the blessing of the big tree of the Chu family, who said that you can't be bitter first and then sweet?
