Chapter 72: Entering the Jin Family at Night
However, what the Shen family did not expect was that before the imperial censor could read the book, those rumors seemed to have grown wings overnight and spread all over the capital.
In the past, they were just ignorant rough women grinding their teeth out of boredom in their free time, chatting nonsense about the love affairs between noble girls from aristocratic families and young men in the street, to satisfy the dirty desires in their hearts.
But now the news is spreading like wildfire. It seems that everyone in the capital has seen Master Jin go to the Shen Mansion with their own eyes, and the people from the Shen Mansion have sent people one after another to see the second Young Master Jin.
So the words became unpleasant to hear.
Some said that the third Miss Shen was indeed taken advantage of by the Second Young Master Jin that day, while others said that the Third Miss Shen had already been taken advantage of by the Second Young Master Jin. Some time ago, she was either injured and recovering at home, or maybe she had an abortion. There were also people nearby who were echoing this. , I seem to have indeed heard that Miss Shen lost her fetus at that time.
After Shen Xijun heard about it, he was so angry that he trembled all over and cursed: "God damn these people! They will not die well."
Then he hurriedly prepared his carriage and horses and hurried back to his parents' home.
The Shen family was also in chaos.
Father Shen's brows furrowed even deeper: Someone must be causing trouble behind this, otherwise it wouldn't be possible for it to become so powerful overnight!
When Shen Xijun learned the truth from his own family, he couldn't help but curse the Sixth Prince: He was born specifically to defeat the Shen Mansion! All bad things are related to him.
When Shen Qiujun saw that her second sister was so angry that she wanted to find someone to kill Jin Er, it was all over. She grabbed her sister and said with a smile: "Father has already made up his mind about this matter, and it will be solved the day after tomorrow at the latest."
Shen Xijun breathed a sigh of relief. She felt embarrassed when she thought that she had heard the news and ran over to make a fuss. She had no idea at all, but wanted her sister, who was the person involved, to comfort her. She also knew that her father had already found a solution. He would probably cause more trouble here, so he had to say goodbye and leave.
Mrs. Shen also said: "Your father and I are responsible for this matter. You don't have to worry too much. Go back quickly. Don't be too panicked. It's as if there is something serious. In case the people in the Yongtai Marquis Mansion will also follow suit. !”
When Shen Qiujun sent his sister back, he saw his mother talking to his father: "Li'er just came to ask about the situation, and said that there is no need to worry. Tomorrow the wise king will come to the palace to pay his respects to the emperor, so I told her everything about the censor." .Then the wise king can help with some strength!"
Father Shen nodded and said: "I'm going to read the ginseng book tomorrow. It's a bit hasty. Fortunately, I've got some evidence of Jin Er's crime. I might as well read it first and fill in the rest later!"
Seeing their daughter come in, he and his wife hurriedly smiled and comforted her. The matter would be over tomorrow, and Shen Qiujun also put on a relaxed look, but his heart was still heavy.
The troublesome day passed quickly. At this time, the afterglow was shining in a remote courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing.
Standing in the courtyard was a middle-aged man with a rather majestic figure.
Looking at the several scars on his face, he barely looked that ferocious under the warm sunset.
The middle-aged man heard something moving in the room, so he pushed the door open and entered. When he saw a cold-faced young man in a smart suit in the room, he couldn't help but was stunned for a moment and asked: "Where are you going?"
Although the young man still had a cold face, he was quite respectful to the middle-aged man and replied: "Uncle Yu, I'm going to the city tonight to kill someone. I told you when I went to the imperial mausoleum that today happened to be a man." Chance!"
Uncle Yu asked doubtfully: "Why don't I know who to kill?"
The young man replied easily: "He is just a playboy who offended me! I was afraid that I would kill him immediately and slander my name, but God has given me a good opportunity, Yang Yuan!"
Uncle Yu warned: "Be careful!"
Yang Yuan had interrupted him proudly and said: "My kung fu is not for fun, it's just for killing a libertine who doesn't know how to box and kick. If it really stumps me, I won't have to work as an errand with you in the future."
." After that, he put on his robe and walked out.
The Jin family is destined to have an uneventful night tonight.
Jin Yuanwailang was not in the mood to play with his concubine Jie Yuhua, so he just lit a candle in the study and sat tiredly in the dark.
This time he was really unlucky, and his official career ended here. He had wasted ten years of studying hard in a poor life, and it was a pity that he was full of beautiful articles.
It's the son's mistake not to teach his father! As he rose higher and higher, he spent his days working hard and spending time with his concubines, and at night he spent a lot of time drinking and drinking with his concubines. As a result, he lost a lot of energy on his son, and now he finally tasted the bitter fruit!
Jin Yuanwailang hurriedly denied his fault: Although his eldest son was mediocre in intelligence and didn't even get a scholarship, his character was still good, and he also didn't care about him. It seemed that he was the fault of his younger son's bad character.
Your own problem!
Thinking of this treacherous son who had caused so much trouble to him, Jin Yuanwailang felt angry again, so he stood up and wanted to teach him a lesson again. At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the lights were almost extinguished by the wind, and he saw that the window was
When the person opened it, a masked man in black jumped in with a sword.
Jin Yuanwailang was so frightened that he opened his mouth to scream. The man put his sword across his neck and said with a smile: "I don't know whether your men are faster or my sword is faster!"
Jin Yuanwailang was so frightened that he begged in a low voice: "Hero, spare your life!"
The man put away his sword, sat down calmly, and said with a smile: "Sir, please sit down too. I am not here to take your life, but to help you."
Jin Yuanwailang reluctantly sat down while holding the table, and asked with trembling lips: "In that case, thank you, good man!"
"You really should thank me! Do you know how Lord Shen dealt with you?"
Jin Yuanwailang shook his head hurriedly!
"Let me tell you, he plans to join forces with the imperial censor to take part in you tomorrow, and he will rape the women of the country!"
When Jin Yuanwailang heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The waiting process is the most torturous. It will happen sooner or later. It doesn't matter if it ends early, at worst, I can go back and become a rich man.
The man then said: "Looking at you, it looks like you are relieved! Do you know that this will end your career? Why don't you fight back?"
Jin Yuanwailang smiled bitterly, how could he, a civil servant with no foundation, compete with the powerful Hou Mansion? If they wanted to deal with him, it would be as easy as killing an ant. It was also unlucky for him to have given birth to such an evil obstacle.
Come.
Seeing this, the man said again: "When the imperial censor consults you, he will bypass Miss Shen's family and talk directly to the sixth prince. Do you know the stakes involved?"
Jin Yuanwailang nodded.
What could he do if he knew! He couldn't afford to offend anyone, whether it was the Sixth Prince or the people of the Shen family.
The sixth prince will never let go of himself. If the Shen family can take it out, he will have fewer enemies. As for whether robbing the prince is a greater crime or robbing the prince's daughter, is it up to him to choose?
?
The masked man sneered: "Master Jin is happy to accept his fate! It's just that he was smart and confused for a moment! You have already accepted your fate, and it's useless for others to help you."
When Jin Yuanwailang heard this, he perked up and blurted out: "Who can help me?"
The masked man smiled and said nothing. Looking at Jin Yuanwailang's anxious look, he spoke slowly: "You can't rely on others, you can only rely on yourself!"
Jin Yuanwailang felt disappointed and sat down on the chair again.
The masked man smiled and said: "The Sixth Prince is currently in the imperial mausoleum and will not be back until a month later."
Seeing that Jin Yuanwailang still looked confused, the man could only give another point: "If you insist that the person your son robbed that day was the third Miss of the Shen family, and the dust settles a month later, how can the Sixth Prince still be on the street?" Shouting: Have you ever been robbed by a young man and turned into a pedophile? In this way, the royal family will gain face. For the sake of his own reputation, the sixth prince will not embarrass you again! Whether you offend the Marquis Mansion or the royal family, it’s up to you. Think about it!"
Jin Yuanwailang was excited: as long as he pinned everything on the Shen family before the sixth prince came back, everything would have nothing to do with him. Besides, he might vent his anger on the Shen family who pulled him out. It can be known.
In fact, he had also thought about this idea, but he didn't know how the sixth prince would deal with him when he was hiding in the dark. Now that the sixth prince was not here, he would blame the Shen family for everything. He could think of a way in a month. He would try to make amends there, but the worst he could do would be to abandon his son.
It's just that the Shen family has harmed a daughter for no reason, and they are afraid that they won't let it go!
The masked man saw the change in the expression on Mr. Jin's face and said, "If you and the Shen family become in-laws, what do you think will happen to the Shen family?"
Mr. Jin was shocked when he heard this. He was about to speak when he saw the masked man making a silent gesture and extinguishing the candle at the same time.
Jin Yuanwailang didn't know what he meant by this move, and he felt uneasy and didn't dare to move.
The masked man whispered: "There is a little thief in your courtyard! I'm afraid he's here to take your son's life!"
Jin Yuanwailang was so frightened that his heart was pounding. These two people entering his mansion felt like they were in no one's land. The security in the capital was also very bad.
The masked man quietly walked to the window and whispered: "The Shen family should not have made such a foolish move!"
When Jin Yuanwailang came to his senses, the masked man was gone. He tremblingly moved to the window and looked outside, only to see two black figures fighting with swords and swords all the way out of the house.
He hurriedly ran to his son's room to check, and saw his son shivering in bed with his head covered. He really felt a little regretful in his heart: if his son died just like that, it would be over.
No matter who those two were, or they were just putting on a show for him, he had to make a decision.
So Mr. Jin stepped forward and pulled the quilt off his son's head and taught him how to deal with it.
On the morning of the next day, there was an imperial censor named Ben, who said that he was not strict in raising his children, indulged in bullying men and women, and had blasphemed the six princes and despised the royal family.
Jin Yuanwailang defended himself: his son has always been well-behaved in front of him, and he did not know that his behavior was unruly. As for the matter of blaspheming the sixth prince, it is completely false!
The censor then listed out the witness testimonies he had in his possession one by one. After all, they were all true. Even the incident involving the Sixth Prince happened in broad daylight, and many people saw it.
