Chapter 622 Phoenix Yufei (21)(1/4)
With the confiscation of the He family, the grudges between the Shen and He families were settled.
Yang Tian knew very much about the affairs of the Shen and He families, but after the case was reviewed, he just said that he had nothing to do with the He family anymore, so he forgot about it and never thought of the Li family for a while.
When Wang Yan mentioned it, she immediately recalled it and couldn't help but let out a "yeah", "Is it the one who broke off the engagement?!"
She also knew that Miss He Wu had been married for a long time, but she only learned the details after the tragic stories of Mrs. He swallowing gold and Miss He trying to commit suicide with the gold hairpin reached the Yang family.
The Li family proposed to the He family to withdraw from the engagement on the grounds that their eldest son was seriously ill. At that time, Shen Zhou had just been dismissed from his official position by the He family. When the He family was arrogant and the Shen family was weak, no one thought that the Li family was doing it to draw a clear line. Those who broke off their engagement with the He family.
However, not long after he broke off the engagement, Wang Shouren's squadron returned to the court and brought back evidence that the He family was a Japanese invader. From then on, the He family suffered a complete defeat, and eventually ended up having their homes confiscated, beheaded and exiled.
Because the Li family left early, they neither got into trouble nor had their character questioned.
Although Miss He Wu did not die, she was exiled. Her fate may not be much better than death. Many boudoirs in the capital sympathized with her.
At that time, Yang Tian went to the banquet with the Yu family, and many ladies were whispering about this topic. Some people said that if the Li family had not broken off the engagement, and Miss He Wu had this engagement, she might still be able to stay in the Li family and avoid the pain of exile.
Of course, some people say that how can Miss He Wu feel at ease even if she stays in the capital, as her relatives will die in exile.
Even more humanely, I am afraid that even if the Li family recognizes this daughter-in-law, they will not treat her well.
Because this was a matter involving an enemy of the Shen family, Yang Tian only listened and did not say anything. He only heard his father and his eldest brother talking about Mrs. He's swallowing of gold after he came back. Although his father and brother looked down on the He family, But the Li family is not highly praised either.
"A few days ago, I heard that because the Tailing Mausoleum (the mausoleum of Emperor Hongzhi) was completed, the emperor gave a heavy reward to the new Ningbo Tan You built by the admiral, as well as Li Hao, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, and the commander of Jin Yiwei, Qian Shi Yu Zhi." Wang Yan was no stranger to talking about court affairs, which shows that Yang Shen did not hide anything from her at home.
In fact, Yang Tinghe also acquiesced in his eldest daughter-in-law's desire to listen to political affairs. He also hoped that her eldest daughter-in-law could become a good helper in his son's career.
Moreover, Yang Tinghe also discovered that sometimes, the eldest daughter-in-law had a keener political insight than her son, and she would no longer be afraid of her daughter-in-law knowing about political affairs.
Wang Yan said slowly: "The emperor valued the fact that he could hand over the Tailing project to Li Hao. After this heavy reward of money, he also handed over the Xiyuan project to him. The whole court regarded him as the emperor's sidekick for a while. New rich man. Now that he has been appreciated by the emperor, it is not unusual for him to make friends with our master, the emperor's mentor, but it is just a matter of marriage..."
"He was a little too eager when he came up to arrange marriage." Yang Tian nodded and said, "Besides, although the He family's case happened a few months ago, the eldest son of his family could say that at that time It was because I was terminally ill that I just broke off the engagement. In the past few months, I have been in good health and can arrange another marriage?! Don’t let anyone talk about it! If my Yang family agrees, I’m afraid there won’t be any good words.”
Wang Yan looked at Yang Tian approvingly, couldn't help but stretched out his hand to touch her little head, and said with a smile: "My Tian'er has grown up."
Yang Tian blushed and spat at her again: "You are so old-fashioned, Sister Chu Chu, how much older are you than me?!"
Wang Yan pinched her again with a smile, and then changed the topic and said: "Your elder brother and I also have this concern, but the master didn't say yes or no, he was just considering it, so it's not easy for us to talk. Even if we make a decision,
Marriage, there is another matter here..."
"Although everyone in the capital knows about Li Hao's family affairs, it is not easy to be the eldest son's daughter-in-law, but what is the identity of the eldest son of the Shilang Mansion? Although Miss He Wu was also a concubine at the beginning, she has always been a concubine.
He was raised by his aunt's side and named under his aunt's name." She paused and said, "Our wife will never be willing to put her second sister's son in her name. If a concubine's second daughter is married to her eldest son, then this is my Yang family's.
So high."
Yang Tian sighed, "Since you are so high-ranking, in the eyes of those who don't know what's going on, the reputation of the Yang family is probably worse than that of the Li family."
Yang Tian also knew that it was impossible for the Yu family to remember Yang Yue by name.
The poison of Aunt Jiang's plan this time was not only to trap her, Yang Tian, to death, but also to frame the Yu family and get rid of the Yu family as well. The Yu family should now hate Aunt Jiang to the core.
No matter whether the second sister is involved or not, as the daughter that Aunt Jiang is planning for, the Yu family will naturally hate her as well. If the Yu family is not even willing to raise Shiro, how can she be willing to let the second sister be recorded in her name?
.
What happened to Aunt Jiang this time was probably due to her father's daily connivance, which raised Aunt Jiang's heart. I'm afraid my father knew it well, and he felt guilty towards Mr. Yu. Therefore, no matter what happened to Mr. Yu's persistence,
It is impossible to forcefully demand Yu’s name.
"Now it just depends on what father wants." Wang Yan said, "I came here to talk to you because I also want to ask you if you know anything about the Li family from the Shen family? We should know better."
Yang Tian thought for a while and said: "It's the He family's business, it's nothing to do with the Li family..." She paused, suddenly widened her eyes, tapped her fingers, and said, "I really remembered something."
What she remembered was that Li Jun, Li Jun's elder brother, was currently an academic administrator in Jiangsu. Although he was related to the He family, he never showed any favoritism. He judged the Japanese case in Songjiang impartially and had a bad impression of the He family.
She told Wang Yan the whole story, and then said: "I've been talking about this for a long time. I remember it was Brother Shen who mentioned it when he came back from Songjiang last year. Just now I saw that my sister-in-law didn't seem to know. I think my eldest brother didn't pay attention.
,forgot."
"No, your elder brother doesn't pay any attention to such things." Wang Yan said with a bitter smile.
Yang Shen never mentioned this matter to her at all, so it was obvious that he had never cared about it. Wang Yan sighed inwardly. His husband was extremely talented, but he was impatient with worldly affairs. Little did he know that he would always have to face challenges when he embarked on an official career in the future.
to these.
She thought for a moment and then said: "In this case, this academic master is an upright person. I am afraid that he cannot tolerate a villain like the He family as an in-law. It is very likely that he has written to his brother early to ask him to break off the engagement.
But, Lord Minister..."
She twitched the corner of her mouth and showed a contemptuous smile, "I'm afraid she couldn't bear to marry the right person. At that time, He Dongsheng was still the minister of the Ministry of Justice. This wait and see lasted until the end of the year. I'm afraid it was also the south that sent the letter. Wang
Lord Shouren has the evidence to arrest the He family, so he can decisively break off the engagement."
Yang Tian nodded in agreement.
Wang Yan lowered his face and said coldly: "If this is the case, how can Li Hao behave like a villain?"
However, she also knew in her heart that her husband had never paid attention to Li Jun's affairs, and she did not believe that her father-in-law, Yang Tinghe, had not paid attention either. So Yang Tinghe did not refuse, but she was still worried.
Wang Yan pursed his lips and said, "No matter what, I will explain everything clearly to you when I go back today."
Wang Yan, who was in charge of the affairs, was no longer as carefree as when he first got married, and was as hurried as the Yu family. He reluctantly stayed with Yang Tian to have a meal and then rushed back.
Shen Rui was carefully examined by his uncle Yang Shen, and everything from the words to the writing was approved. Shen Rui also listened obediently. In terms of knowledge, he admitted from the bottom of his heart that he and his uncle There is still a gap.
After all, my eldest uncle is the top talent, and he is willing to communicate more with him.
After Yang Shen and his wife left, when Shen Rui talked to Yang Tian in private, he couldn't help but said: "After the eldest brother got married, he became more and more like an elder brother." It's a bit like an elder brother is like a father.
Yang Tian also smiled so hard that her eyes were crooked, and she was full of praise for her sister-in-law "Sister Chu Chu". She was also really happy to have such a sister-in-law.
She told Shen Rui about the marriage proposal from the Li family to the Yang family, and also told Shen Rui about her and her sister-in-law's analysis.
Shen Rui smiled coolly and said: "In fact, the water conservancy projects that this Minister Li previously presided over were all done beautifully. He is not a mediocre person, and it is human nature to seek benefits and avoid disadvantages."
He lowered his voice and added: "This person is under the command of Mr. Liu Ge. It is not known whether there is any instruction from Mr. Ge."
In fact, he was still wondering if there was any instruction from Brother Shou, but he couldn't bring this up casually.
After shaking Yang Tian's little hand, he returned to his normal voice and said: "Father-in-law has been dealing with these people for a longer time. After thinking about it, he knows these people well. Tian'er should not worry too much about this time. Father-in-law has the final say..."
He also doted on and teased: "If you don't like your second sister, just don't see her in the future. From now on, let Zhang Tian (father Banxia) take care of the concierge. You can decide who you see and who you don't see. Whether the door opens or not is all up to you, okay?" good?"
Yang Tian wrinkled his nose and said angrily: "We are talking seriously here, but you are just making jokes." He then flatly said: "After all, she is my sister, how can she really be turned away?" She felt worried. If you are not happy, you still have to save face and don't let others laugh at the Yang family's tutor.
As she said this, she remembered something she was even more unhappy about.
She frowned and said: "Also, my sister-in-law said that the second girl from Shouning Houfu and Ji Li actually left me a message about my relatives and sisters-in-law. Both my wife and sister-in-law were unhappy, and they didn't have any good feelings towards them, so they directly replaced me. Pushed."
Shen Rui immediately darkened his face and said coldly: "Don't even pay attention to them."
Yang Tian stared at Shen Rui. In terms of etiquette, after adoption, Shen Jin was just a member of the clan, but after all, there was still a blood relationship, and he could not be treated lightly.
Seeing the worry hidden in her eyes, Shen Rui understood something in his heart, and his voice became colder: "Tian'er, don't think too much, he is just an ordinary clan member. People in the clan can't get along with each other, and there are many people who would make a fuss when meeting. , What does this mean to us? We have already divided our clans, so who cares?"
He took Yang Tian's hand and said seriously: "Tian'er, I have said before that you don't have to wrong yourself for anyone. In the past, you had your father-in-law and your eldest brother. In the future, with me, I will try my best to make you live comfortably."
Yang Tian then smiled, then winked playfully, and said in a charming tone: "I was thinking that if you said 'it's okay to save face', then I would still have to save face, then Just let others go to the bookstore and buy the new issue of Women's Precepts and Women's Virtues, and give it to her to congratulate her on her hairpin. Since you said you don't need to save face, I will save half of the money."
The female preceptor had a strong accent, and at the end she spit out her lilac tongue and made a grimace.
Shen Rui was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and felt relieved. He stretched out his hand to scratch the tip of Yang Tian's nose and said with a smile: "You have become so narrow-minded!"
"I learned everything from the Lu family's sister-in-law." Yang Tian suddenly sighed, and when he spoke again, he brought out Zhang Qingbai's accent and intonation, saying: "I learned conversation faster than I learned kung fu from the Lu family's sister-in-law.
But what should I do..."
Hearing this, Shen Rui laughed out loud: "It's broken, it's broken, when I lift and open the hijab, I didn't marry a daughter-in-law from Shuzhong, but from Shandong! Could it be that someone slipped the bag? But what happened?
Okay..."
*
On May 28th, Zhang Yuxian, the second girl of the Shouning Hou Mansion, was given a gift of hairpins. A large banquet was held in the Hou Mansion and the house was packed with guests.
No matter what the court said about the emperor's attitude towards the Zhang family, the Zhang family was the most prominent family of relatives in the Hongzhi and Zhengde dynasties. Especially it is said that there will soon be another queen among the Zhang family's in-laws. In addition to the Zhang family in the civil and military circles,
For a few companies such as Han Wen, which are in stalemate, most of the courtiers want to give some face.
Of course, some people who are familiar with the Zhang family members secretly murmured: The second girl’s birthday in this photo was originally supposed to be in mid-May, so why was it delayed until the end of the month? This hairpin ceremony is so important to women...
However, the buzz from the outside world did not affect the liveliness of the Zhang family at all. The empress dowager and the empress dowager in the palace were all rewarded with brocades, and they were quite honored for a while.
Naturally, Yang Tian didn't pay attention that day. When she got up early in the morning, she and Shen Rui were busy making money from elm trees and discussing a banquet of elm money at noon.
However, when the two of them were taking a routine walk, they saw a dozen large elm trees beside a road in the village covered with elm coins, and several children from farmers were picking them there enthusiastically.
Yang Tian, a scholarly lady, didn't know that this food was actually edible. Shen Rui, remembering his past life, joked that he would pay for it.
He only knew how to eat Yu Qian'er's scrambled eggs. Mother Lin couldn't help but laugh and said: "You are a young master from a wealthy family. How do you know how poor people eat? Where can you get eggs? Put less rice and use them."
To cook porridge, some thick noodles can be used to stuff stuffing and bake pancakes..."
Shen Rui smiled and said: "It's not bitter now. Let's just eat scrambled eggs and fried meat, and Tian'er can also have a taste of it."
Yang Tian said, seeing how many knots there were in Yuqianer, he thought he might as well try them all.
Shen Rui then asked the boy to call the other children and give him half of the elm they picked today. He gave each of them ten chicken eggs and a pound of meat, and asked them to go home and fry the elm to make a delicious meal.
The children immediately cheered and picked more and more energetically.
In the middle of the excitement, someone came to the door over there and reported that the Lord of Qinghe County, the Sixth Girl of Uncle Wu Jing's Mansion, and a Miss Wu came to visit and asked to see Miss Yang.
