The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 764 Portrait of a Woman in the Study Room ([-])

The footsteps of the years have entered the twelfth lunar month step by step, and they are stepping towards the New Year. Lu Jinkang is not a procrastination person at all, and he will explain the matter of investigation when he returns to the Zhen Guogong Mansion.

This matter is bound to be implemented before the end of the year, and it is necessary to have a peaceful and peaceful new year.

Lu Jinkang has a lot of people and contacts in his hands, and Su Fengwen sent the portrait directly to Su Chengzhi. It may be difficult for Su Chengzhi to investigate such a matter, but it can be said to be an easy task for Lu Jinkang.

It only took five days for this matter to be thoroughly investigated by Lu Jinkang's people.

When Lu Jinkang handed over the results of the investigation and witnesses to Su Chengzhi, Su Chengzhi was almost stunned.

He originally thought it was just Sanfang Xiang making a fuss about his biological mother, but the result was a bit unexpected.

If Lu Jinkang hadn't brought the testimony before him, he would never have thought that Sanfang would hook up with the old Su's family in Geshan Village.

It turned out that this witness was actually Su Zefan who was exiled in Guizhou!
Su Chengzhi never thought about letting the old Su family live in that place of exile for generations, but at least they didn't come out of the place of exile so quickly, but Su Zefan still stunned Su Chengzhi by showing up in front of him like that.

When the old Su family committed crimes, one was because of arson, and the other was because of buying murder. They were sentenced to exile in Guizhou for ten years. Now it has only been five years. Dongling Kingdom has not experienced any amnesty in the past five years. People from the old Su family Naturally, he shouldn't leave Guizhou, so how did Su Zefan come to the capital, and how did he hook up with Sanfang?
Where are the rest of the old Su family now?

Too many questions came to his mind, facing Su Zefan who was glaring at him viciously, Su Chengzhi had mixed feelings for a while, and he didn't know where to ask.

But since Lu Jinkang brought Su Zefan to Su Chengzhi, these matters have naturally been investigated clearly.

Su Zefan's ability to come to the capital was naturally due to the blessing of the third wife of the Su family, to be precise, it was the blessing of Su Fengxiang.

"How could it be Thirteen? Hasn't he been studying abroad for the past two years?" Hearing that this matter was related to Su Fengxiang, Su Chengzhi looked at Lu Jinkang suspiciously and said.

Su Yunduo, who accompanied Lu Jinkang to Dongmingfang, silently glanced at Su Chengzhi.

After living in the capital for several years, this person is still so stupid!
Fortunately, after he failed to win the Jinshi, he was not allowed to go to other places to be a parent official, otherwise he would be sold out, and he would happily count the money for him!

Su Chengzhi was slightly choked by Su Yunduo's stare, knowing that he had asked a stupid question, he simply closed his mouth and continued to listen to Lu Jinkang's account of the cause and effect.

Lu Jinkang glanced at Su Yunduo with a smile, shook his head slightly, and then continued.

Because Su Chengzhi took his wife and children to recognize their ancestors and returned to the clan, Su Fengxiang lost the position of heir that he had calculated for many years.

The dispute between Hu Pi and Su Chengzhi before the Tribute Court Examination did affect Su Fengxiang's examination status.

Regardless of whether his failure was related to this dispute, Su Fengxiang attributed the reason for his failure to Su Chengzhi.

In Su Fengxiang's eyes, Su Chengzhi was not only the culprit who caused him to fail the exam, but also "robbed" his heir's position, so Su Fengxiang naturally held a grudge against Su Chengzhi.

In the past two years or so, Su Fengxiang had never made a move against the second room. In fact, he was looking for opportunities to attack Su Chengzhi almost all the time.

Therefore, although he said that he was studying abroad, as long as he checked his study tour itinerary, he could find some clues.

The first stop of Su Fengxiang's study tour was Yanshan Mansion. He not only visited Yanshan Mansion, but even lived in Geshan Village for almost a month as an ordinary student.

There are many women with broken mouths in the countryside. As long as Su Fengxiang is willing to lower his "noble" head, it is not difficult to find out the truth about Su Chengzhi.

In order to dig out Su Chengzhi's background, Su Fengxiang really lowered his high head, and only conducted unannounced visits quietly as an ordinary student studying abroad. He quickly dug up the affairs of Su Chengzhi's family in Geshan Village from the mouths of the three aunts and six women in the village. Upside down.

Not only did he find out the old Su's family who was exiled to Guizhou, but he also found out about Su Yunying. These naturally became his best weapon to defeat Su Chengzhi.

Su Fengxiang is really not a fool. After he dug out the grievances between Su Chengzhi and the old Su family in Geshan Village, he still had the patience to live in Geshan Village for another half a month, conducting investigations of public sentiment like ordinary students. This aroused the suspicion of the folks in Geshan Village. When he left Geshan Village, the folks gave him a lot of things specially.

It should be said that when the old doctor Kong was in the capital, he would go to Dongmingfang from time to time to ask Mrs. Lu for peace. I had some contact with old doctor Kong, why didn't even old doctor Kong find Su Fengxiang?

It turns out that Su Fengxiang really took great pains to dig out Su Chengzhi's background. After arriving at Yanshan Mansion, he first sent his servants to Geshan Village to find out the news. It took three months in Yanshan Mansion and Xiushui County before he found out about Mr. Kong. News that the doctor is going to the Valley of Miraculous Doctors.

The old doctor Kong left Geshan Village to go to the Valley of Miraculous Doctors, and Su Fengxiang entered Geshan Village on the back foot. In this way, no one really recognized him as the thirteenth young master of the third family of the Su family in the capital.

What's more coincidental is that at that time, Liu Donglin just stepped down as the village chief of Geshan Village and came to the capital. Liu Dongan had just taken over as the village chief, so he was naturally not as experienced as Liu Donglin in some aspects, and Su Fengxiang's arrival naturally did not attract Liu Dongan's attention. .

What's more, when Su Fengxiang came to Geshan Village, he really looked like a student who traveled around and occasionally stayed in Geshan Village, and soon became friends with Liu Yuli, who was a teacher of the Liu Clan School, and even took time out to give lectures to the children of the family study .

In all honesty, Su Fengxiang was able to pass the Juren examination and was ranked tenth in the capital's autumn rankings, so his knowledge is naturally not bad. In addition, he traveled all the way from the capital to Geshan Village. Therefore, the lectures he gave were quite lively and attractive, which naturally greatly facilitated him to dig out Su Chengzhi's background.

Su Fengxiang left Geshan Village and went directly to Guizhou.

Su Fengxiang really spared no effort in repaying Su Chengzhi, even Su Yunduo had to "admire".

In this era when most of the transportation is by horse-drawn carriage, Su Fengxiang traveled thousands of miles from north to south, and it took more than half a year to go to Guizhou to hook up with the old Su's family.

The old Su family was exiled from Yanshan Mansion in the north to Guizhou in the south, and they suffered a lot they had never experienced. On the way, except for Su Yunying who was taken away by Yin Bao, Su Fugui died on the way.

The old Su family thought that the journey was already suffering enough, but when they arrived in Guizhou, they realized that the suffering would never end. The backwardness and poverty in Guizhou far exceeded their imagination.

The family who had been bitten all the way because of exile almost became enemies after arriving in Guizhou.

The old Su family without Su Fugui eventually became a mess.

Guizhou is the place of exile in the Dongling Kingdom, and the old Su family is not the most ferocious person. When he first arrived in Guizhou, it was a mess, and he was inevitably bullied by other exiles. The days of exile were miserable.

All the men in the old Su family have studied for several years, and there is also a son-in-law Lin Luhu who worked as a clerk in the yamen. He soon realized that if his family cannot unite, the final result is not to be bullied. Never being able to lift his head up, he is just fending for himself on this barren land.

After the initial panic and division, the old Su family finally got together to make a living.

Su Dazhi and Su Erzhi led most of the people to reclaim the wasteland, trying to prevent the family from starving.

Lin Luhu took Su Zefan around to find a job, but they were newcomers and wanted to find a job. It was so easy, and they couldn't find a suitable job after running around, so they had to roll up their trouser legs and follow everyone Let's open up wasteland and grow food together.

The reason why Guizhou became a place of exile lies in the barrenness of this land. Although a large piece of land was allocated to the Su family for reclamation, the barren land has a different climate from that of the North, and it is difficult to even make ends meet.

At this moment, Su Fengxiang came, bringing hope to the old Su family.

How they hooked up, there is no need to elaborate, in short, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

For discrediting Su Chengzhi or causing trouble for Su Chengzhi, Yang, Xiao Yang and Su Shu spared no effort. All three of them had met Su Jiaoniang before, although Xiao Yang and Su Shu didn't have a deep impression of Su Jiaoniang. But it didn't prevent them from pouring dirty water on Su Jiaoniang.

The portrait that Su Fengwen sent to Su Chengzhi was drawn by Su Fengxiang and Su Zefan based on Yang's description.

After Su Fengxiang thought he had "found out" the life experience of Su Chengzhi's biological mother, he should go back to the capital to prepare for the next year's spring, so he spent some time and money to bring Su Zefan out of Guizhou to the capital together.

As for why Su Fengwen sent this portrait to Su Chengzhi and what the purpose was, it was really confusing.

Since Su Fengxiang put in so much effort, went to Geshan Village to dig out the details of Su Chengzhi, traveled thousands of miles to Guizhou, and finally tried his best to get Su Zefan to the capital, it was definitely not just a simple matter of creating suspicion in the second room. , no matter how you look at it, you should have some big moves.

Facing Su Chengzhi's suspicious gaze, Lu Jinkang chuckled lightly: "This portrait was not sent by Su Fengxiang, but by Su Fengwen secretly."

It turned out that Su Fengwen was reprimanded by his husband in the ethnology a few days ago, and then compared with Su Zexuan by his husband, he was furious in his heart.

If it weren't for the two boys in Erfang, he should still be living a prosperous life in Baiming Academy now. Just because he had a dispute with those two boys in Erfang, Baiming Academy removed him from the name, and now the ethnology still regards him as the same as Erfang. That kid compares.

Why should the boy from the country in Erfang be compared with him? !
That country bumpkin has just become a boy student, if he goes to take the exam, will he still fail the exam? !

It's just that Su Fengwen only dared to say this in his heart. Over the years, he has used a lot of crooked thoughts, and naturally he has less thought on studying. If he is really asked to take the exam, he might not be able to pass the exam. Besides, even if he passes the exam Oh, and he is several years older than Su Zexuan in terms of age!
The person in his heart was angry, and at this moment he overheard the conversation between Su Fengxiang and Su Zefan, knew about Su Zefan's life experience, and also knew that Su Fengxiang had a portrait of Su Chengzhi's biological mother in his hand.

The third room is the only room in the Su family that has concubines, concubines, and concubines. Although Su Fengwen's aunt is very favored, she can't really override the main wife. He naturally understands the irreconcilable contradictions between the main wife and concubine, so he decided Thinking about using this portrait to create some confusion for Erfang.

He didn't believe that the second room was in chaos, that boy Su Zexuan could still study at ease, let's see if he still has the intention to continue taking the exam next year!
So the portrait that Su Fengxiang kept in his study was stolen by Su Fengwen and sent to Su Chengzhi, and the second room got into a dispute as they wished.

It was only a few days before Su Fengwen was complacent, and this matter was dug up by Lu Jinkang. Not only did Su Fengxiang go through all kinds of hard work to dig out the clues that could make Su Chengzhi "failed", but also almost made the whole Sanfang excommunicated.

You must know that if the clan is really expelled in this era, not only will it lose the protection of the clan, but in serious cases, it will even affect the children and grandchildren.

Su Lingzhi, the third-bedroom old man who originally found "evidence" for Su Fengxiang to attack Su Chengzhi, called Su Fengxiang's old man, Su Chenghan, and severely reprimanded him.

Although Su Lingzhi was the one who forced the old lady Lu to adopt the most fiercely before, but when Su Chengzhi really recognized his ancestors and returned to the clan, Su Lingzhi gradually let go. Of course, it is impossible to say in his heart that he does not regret it.

But as a brother, Su Lingzhi was still happy that his second brother had his own flesh and blood.

Of course, Su Lingzhi pretended not to see the swear words between the third room and the second room on weekdays, but this time Su Lingzhi finally understood that his repeated connivance kept his children and grandchildren silent, which was the root cause of the incident.

After learning that the family might expel the third house in order to appease the second house, Su Lingzhi no longer cared about his old age and infirmity. He first reprimanded Su Chenghan, and then brought Su Chenghan to the second house to apologize to Mrs. Lu in person, and begged for her forgiveness. .

And when Su Lingzhi learned what Su Fengxiang was conspiring with the old Su family, he was so angry that he almost had a stroke.

If such things are really spread, not only Su Chengzhi and Erfang will be ruined, but even the entire Su family will become a joke in the eyes of the world.

The most important thing is that what the women of the old Su family told Su Fengxiang about Su Jiaoniang's life experience is completely nonsense.

Back then, the reason why old lady Lu took Su Jiaoniang for Su Ling was because she didn't want Su Jiaoniang to be a girl from a good family and go to the dust to save her father and brother from suffering.

Unexpectedly, Yang and the others not only didn't thank Su Jiaoniang, but in order to repay Su Jiaoniang, they even used the fact that Su Jiaoniang was almost sold into a brothel to discredit Su Chengzhi. How could old lady Lu bear it after she knew about it? !
Fortunately, the old lady Lu was afraid that such things would one day spread rumors, so she did a lot of work in advance. In addition to Su Jiaoniang's portrait, she also left evidence that could prove Su Jiaoniang's innocence.

After Su Chengzhi recognized his ancestor and returned to his clan, Mrs. Lu originally planned to destroy these evidences. At that time, Madam Wu dispelled Mrs. Lu's plan with one sentence. The most powerful weapon to crush Su Fengxiang's conspiracy.

Although Sanfang was not expelled because of Su Lingzhi's sincerity, Su Fengxiang did not end well.

The clan wanted to expel Su Fengxiang from the clan. After discussing with Su Yunduo, Lu Jinkang and Su Yunduo felt that expelling the clan was not the best punishment, and it would be better to detain him in the ancestral hall.

Therefore, Lu Jinkang came forward to discuss with the patriarchs and elders of the Su clan, and finally handed over Su Fengxiang to the Jietang, who was under the care of the Jietang, and temporarily detained Su Fengxiang in the Su Clan's ancestral hall to see the effect.

As for Su Fengwen, it is natural that he must be admonished. Su Zefan was sent back to Guizhou, and the old Su family in Guizhou had to suffer again. With this lesson, he must not dare to have any delusions again.

The portraits in Su Chengzhi's study were finally settled.
