It's just that after killing each other, many people lost their lives, but they didn't expect that the source of this matter was an ordinary woman who was eager to avenge her husband.

Jiang Gulan was born in Caochuan County, a scholarly family, and lived a prosperous life in his early years, his father Jiang Zhige was a descendant of Caochuan, a Jinshi in the Southern Chu Liangbang, a student of Jiangnan Xuedao Titai, and an official to mention the prison and a member of the Ministry of Rites. The family has a rich collection of books, is good at writing, and works in words.

Jiang Gulan has lived in a family with a very strong literary atmosphere since she was a child, and she has been exposed to her ears and eyes, cultivated by her family education, coupled with her intelligence and understanding, her talent is outstanding, and she has the appearance of captivating the country and the city, and being embarrassed by the moon. Cardamom was already famous in Cao Chuan, and was highly praised by the famous writers at that time, calling him "a talent of poetry and literature, worthy of God's favor"

In the year of Xuan, he wrote the famous word "Night Rain and Sparse", which caused a sensation in the world at that time as soon as this word came out, and those who heard it were all rewarded with the festival, saying that there was no one who could compare with it in 20 years.

Jiang Gulan was nineteen years old, and under the order of her parents and the arrangement of the matchmaker, she married Li Mingcheng, a student who was only 21 years old at the time, in Jinling. At that time, Jiang Gulan's father was a member of the Ministry of Rites, and Li Ting, the father of Li Mingcheng, was a Honglu Siqing, both of whom were officials of the Southern Chu court.

But although these two positions are of high grade, they are actually only Qingshui's duties, and both of them are decent Confucian children, except for impartiality, they don't know the rest of the drill camp. Therefore, although Jiang Gulan and his wife are "children of a noble family", they are also quite poor in their life in Jinling.

Although Zhao Li is a scholarly family, but the upper and lower generations of the clan have been poor and thrifty, and the rest of the things of Jiang Gulan and his wife are all able to do it, but there is only one collection of books, which cannot be saved.

Therefore, Li Mingcheng, who studied in Taixue, often went to the pawnshop to pawn a few pieces of clothing to exchange a little money when he went home to reunite with his wife on the first and fifteenth days of the first year, and then walked into the lively Xiangguo Temple thrift market to buy back the inscriptions and old books they loved, and the couple played and chewed on each other.

In the next two years, the Southern Chu court opened a branch to obtain scholars, and Li Mingcheng entered the official career, although he had independent financial resources, the couple still lived a very frugal life, except for the unrelenting papers, there was almost no other entertainment.

Although the collection of Zhao Li's family is quite rich, it is far from enough for Jiang Gulan and Li Mingcheng, so they tried their best to borrow the rare rare books collected by the imperial court through relatives and friends.

However, Jiang Gulan and his wife's financial resources are limited after all. Once, someone took a famous "Hibiscus Splendid Picture" from a former dynasty and asked for a lot of money. Jiang Gulan and his wife stayed at home to enjoy

Two nights, I can't put it down. But with so much money, the two of them smashed the pot and sold iron, and they couldn't get it out, so they had to reluctantly return it.

For this reason the couple mourned each other for several days. There are many such things, so although the newly married life of Jiang Gulan and his wife is poor, they are also husband and wife, and they don't feel how bitter.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and when Jiang Gulan and his wife went on a spring outing, they were looked at by Nangong Xingchi, who happened to be in Jinling at the time, and this buried the trouble. Nangong Xingchi is the third son in the Nangong family, and the Nangong family is one of the seven major martial arts families in the world, and naturally has a great reputation in the rivers and lakes.

Although Nangong Xingchi has long been well-known for not being successful, he is obsessed with women, and he likes to use some subordinate means every time, so he naturally laughs at the people in the rivers and lakes, and even the Nangong family has become a laughing stock in the rivers and lakes. Such trivial things, although they have no impact on the strength and foundation of the Nangong family, even if they are the top forces in the rivers and lakes, not every junior is so outstanding, almost every generation has one or two unscrupulous children, and the Nangong family is not a maverick.

So Rao is this Nangong Xingchi has done a lot of angry things, and in the end, it is often not over, the so-called don't look at the face of the monk to see the Buddha, Nangong Xingchi is shameless, the Nangong family still has to face, if the matter can be covered up, then the Nangong family is high, and it can be compensated slightly, if it really wants to make a big deal, then the Nangong family doesn't mind completely extinguishing some flames that shouldn't be.

A little material compensation, for the Nangong family, is just a drop in the bucket, and there are no serious consequences after doing evil, Nangong Xingchi is naturally even more unscrupulous, this time seeing Jiang Gulan's beauty of sinking fish and geese, and closing the moon and embarrassing flowers, he suddenly couldn't move, and he had to get it into his own hands.

It's just that although Nangong Xingchi himself likes to mess around, the Nangong family is not an unreasonable person, for example, Nangong Qiuling, the most outstanding young generation of the Nangong family, has always hated Nangong Xingchi's next things, and the elders also have a lot of complaints about Nangong Xingchi's unruly practices.

Therefore, Nangong Xingchi is also acting more and more carefully, for fear of being caught by Nangong Qiuling. But the Nangong family, as the head of the seven great families, has a great family energy, far beyond the imagination of outsiders, even if it is inconvenient to do it on the surface, as long as they plan secretly, it is by no means something that Jiang Gulan and his wife can resist.

Therefore, in the third year after Jiang Gulan got married, his father Jiang Zhige was inexplicably involved in the partisan dispute between the DPRK and China and was not allowed to serve in Jinling City. At that time, there were 17 people implicated, Jiang Zhige was the fifth, and he was dismissed from the post of Jingdong Road Prison, and then he was demoted to a concubine all the way.

And in the same

In the year, Li Ting, the father of Li Mingcheng, was promoted all the way, except for Shangshu Youcheng in June and Shangshu Zuocheng in August. In order to save his father-in-law's danger, Li Mingcheng personally went to find Li Ting, but Li Ting, who had been with Jiang Zhige for more than 20 years, not only frowned coldly about this, but even threatened to sever the father-son relationship with Li Mingcheng and expel Li Mingcheng's name from the family tree.

In today's world, being expelled from the clan is an extremely serious matter, and it will not come to such a level if it is not a great rebellion and a person who commits adultery and criminality. Therefore, Li Mingcheng was personally threatened by his father to get rid of the genealogy, and the blow he suffered was beyond the imagination of outsiders.

And Jiang Zhige was dismissed from his official position and demoted to a concubine, the huge Jinling has no place to stand, and he had to leave Beijing alone to return to his hometown, Jiang Gulan couldn't bear his father to travel alone, so he was ready to return to his hometown with him and go to his family who was repatriated first.

At this point, Jiang Gulan and Li Mingcheng, the originally loving couple, are not only facing the danger of being separated, but also facing the situation of breaking with their husband's family and being stoned by everyone.

The world was unpredictable, and after Jiang Zhige was inexplicably implicated in the party struggle and demoted to a concubine, Li Ting soon rose to prominence and became the right servant of Shangshu and the servant of Zhongshu, and the Li family became more and more prominent in Jinling City.

After thinking about it, Li Mingcheng, who was facing a dilemma, did not choose the glory and wealth in Jinling City, but accompanied his beloved wife Jiang Gulan to return to his hometown in Caochuan County.

Jiang Gu Lanken married Li Mingcheng because of his parents' orders and matchmakers' words, but this also had a lot to do with Li Mingcheng's young age and talent at the time, and the two had similar interests as soon as they came into contact.

Li Mingcheng is indeed a very good and talented man, and the love between the two after they became husband and wife is also quite envious of others. However, now that Li Mingcheng has abandoned his official position, and his father-in-law has also been demoted to a concubine, the already poor family is naturally even more stretched.

However, Li Mingcheng is quite wise, and he is not a dull scholar who ignores things outside the window and only reads sage books. Soon after he followed his wife to Caochuan County, he began to show an extraordinary sense of business. In the bustling southern part of Caochuan County, Li Mingcheng found an extraordinary business opportunity.

It turns out that Caochuan County has been rich since ancient times, but it is not very confident in its local culture, and every move is on par with the imperial city of Jinling. After learning about this phenomenon, Li Mingcheng felt that if he opened a restaurant specializing in Jinling cuisine here, he would definitely do a lot, and if he succeeded in one fell swoop, he could also solve his own livelihood problem.
