I became an exiled convict after we got married

Chapter 2 Kangping County Lord
Wan Jinlan's body is very healthy, and she has been riding a horse for several days. As long as she can soak in hot water at night, a small part of her body's sleepiness can be relieved.

Chuntao took the mother-in-law to move the bathtub out, and went to the kitchen of the post station to bring back a bowl of soup.

Shen Qing loves to drink those soups and waters that nourish people, even when she is away from home, as long as she has the conditions, she will let the mother-in-law by her side cook a pot every day.

"Miss, today's soup is here."

Wan Jinlan glanced at it. It was stewed crispy black-bone chicken soup, bright in color, and the soup bowl was still steaming.

It's hot at first sight, and you'll definitely break out in a sweat after drinking it, so she's going to put it away before drinking.

Chuntao said in a low voice: "Just now when the servant girl went out, she heard the faint sound of a woman crying in Madam's room."

Mother is secretly crying?Wan Jinlan was taken aback, "But what happened to my mother?"

As she said she was about to get dressed, Chuntao stopped her.

"Miss doesn't have to go, it's not madam, someone else came to the post house and met madam, the servant girl heard from Aunt Cuiwen that she is from Kangping county lord and the Wu family."

Wan Jinlan asked, "The Wu family in Luoyi City?"

Although she left Beijing and went to the Southwest for two years, she still has an impression of Kangping County Lord.

The relationship between Beijing and China is intricate. If the in-law relationship is connected, it will be an amazing network of relationships.

Wan Jinlan doesn't like to talk about those twists and turns, but being born in a family like the Zhen Guogong Mansion, she has been exposed to these twists and turns since she was a child.

The head of Kangping County was born in the clan, and his mother and her grandmother are somewhat related, both from the Cui family, but they are two branches, the relationship is far and far away, and it is indeed closer than other families.

She has a good memory, and the Lord Kangping even hugged her when she was young.

Chuntao continued to whisper the news she heard just now.

"The county lord of Kangping has reconciled, and the servant girl is still downstairs to see the eldest son of the county lord, and he is a man of great talent and respect for the wind."

What kind of master there is, and what kind of follower there is.

Chuntao is a qualified follower.

She knows that the young lady has an unruly temper and doesn't like to be restrained. She also knows that the young lady is very particular about eating and drinking. She also knows that the master likes to hear fresh news, no matter who it is about, as long as the young lady doesn't know about it, she likes to hear it.

Not only did Miss love to listen, her Chuntao also loved to listen.

It's human nature to watch the fun.

Alas, no, it's somewhat inappropriate for others to leave and watch the excitement.

Of course, Chuntao and Wan Jinlan didn't mean to laugh at the county magistrate Kangping at this time, they were just curious about her affairs, and had no other intentions.

After waking up in the morning of the second day, after eating in the room and leaving the post house to get on the carriage, Wan Jinlan could be considered to have met the handsome young master of the Wu family who Chuntaokou said was a handsome man.

The ethos of this dynasty is considered enlightened, men and women are not too defensive, and women do not need to strictly wear curtains when they go out.

Therefore, Wan Jinlan was wearing women's clothes today, and she didn't put on the obtrusive and inconvenient curtain, showing a childish face.

Shen Qing was standing by the carriage talking to a haggard middle-aged beautiful woman.

Wan Jinlan came to him and bowed, "I have met the county magistrate."

The head of Kangping County had red eye circles, but he still forced a smile and gave her a meeting gift, a white jade bracelet with smooth and greasy color.

After exchanging pleasantries, they finally got into the carriage.

Both convoys headed for the pier.

They are all going back to Kyoto, and the fastest way to go by water is naturally in one direction.

Today, Wan Jinlan is dressed in women's clothing and is sitting in a carriage, but her mouth and ears are not idle, and she heard about the situation of the Kangping County Lord from her mother.

Speaking of this Kangping county magistrate, he is also pitiful.

Married into the Wu family for [-] years, raising children for the Wu family, taking care of the inside and outside, it can be said that she has done her best.

However, a few months ago, the county lord discovered that her husband had raised a concubine outside, and even the child in that concubine was one year older than her eldest son.

Back when the county magistrate was not married, the Wu family had only a small fortune, and Wu Shouren was a fellow Jinshi who had won the top three in the examination.

There is a big difference between Jinshi, and the first grade must enter the Hanlin Academy.

What kind of place is the Hanlin Academy? A bachelor of the Hanlin Academy is called the "statutory inner minister". Look at those who have entered the cabinet, which one has not survived in the Imperial Academy.

As for the second-class and third-class, if there is no accident, most of them will be placed in the lower places, starting from small officials.

The place where it is distributed is very particular.

If Wu Shouren hadn't married the county magistrate of Kangping, given his situation at the time, he had no connections to connect him with, and he would only have been sent down to a small place where no one would shit or lay eggs.

It's different after marrying the Lord of Kangping County. The mother's family of the Lord of Kangping County helped him, and he was sent to the county of Luoyi, Sizhou, not far from Beijing.

Twenty years have passed, and the poor scholar in the past has now become a high-ranking official in Luoyi. The people who come and go are all powerful, and he has successfully squeezed into the powerful class.

It was impossible for Wu Shouren to climb so high without the help of the mistress's family in Kangping County.

As a result, what did the Lord Kangping get?
She discovered that the outer room was Wu Shouren's former wife, not some outer room.

Who won't be angry about this matter?
The magistrate of Kangping County was born in the clan, so he had his own arrogance, how could he allow Wu Shouren to lie to her for twenty years.

However, at this moment, Wu Shouren felt that he no longer needed the help of the matriarch of Kangping County, and threatened that if she dared to make trouble, Wu Ye's future would also be ruined.

Wu Ye is the eldest son of Kangping county magistrate and Wu Shouren. He followed his father and is quite talented in reading. He even won the first place in the township examination three years ago. It's time to end.

For the sake of her son, the magistrate of Kangping County endured it, but she still reconciled.

Wan Jinlan's mood was not so good after hearing about the Kangping County Lord.

It's good to reconcile and leave, and you don't have to see the disturbing person again, but everything that should belong to the county magistrate's mother and son in the Wu family, wouldn't it be cheaper for others.Then Wu Shouren can continue to live a chic life?
Wan Jinlan sighed, "Mother, why didn't the magistrate choose to report him?"

Shen Qing sighed: "After I sue, what next?"

"If Wu Shouren reconciled before marrying the county lord, it would not be possible to determine that he had a wife to remarry. At most, he just lied about some situations. After reporting, his reputation will be tainted, and the black hat will not be lost."

"If he really has a wife and marries more, the punishment for officials is stricter than that of ordinary people, and the black hat will definitely not be kept. But what about Wu Ye?"

Wan Jinlan opened his mouth and said, "The county lord belongs to the clan. Even if Wu Ye doesn't have the support of the Wu family, he can still rely on the imperial examination to get ahead."

Shen Qing opened her mouth to refute, but felt that there was nothing wrong with what her girl said.

It's just too taken for granted.

If you want to pursue an official career, the more help you need, the better. In some respects, both the father's family and the mother's family are important, and the father's family is more important than the mother's family.

Although the mistress's family in Kangping County is a clan, the current real power is not as good as that of Wu Shouren.

Although Shen Qing could understand the county head's choice, she still felt aggrieved.
