After the general's wife was reborn, everyone knelt down and begged her for mercy.

Ning Ruyan's eyes lit up: "Is it Mr. Jiang?"

"It's an imperial edict." The corners of Zisu's lips curled up.

"What imperial edict?" Ning Ruyan frowned.

"Previously, the general submitted a letter to serve, but the emperor never approved it. Today, he approved it and directly issued an imperial edict to withdraw the title of General Dingguo." Zisu shrugged, "It seems that God is helping us. There is no decision. If he is given the title of general, he will not have a bodyguard."

The titles of civil servants and generals in the Great Xia Dynasty were different from their titles and could not be hereditary.

Especially military commanders, who are earned through military merit.

But as long as one of the descendants has a promising person, he can basically inherit the military power smoothly. After all, any army he has led will be recognized as a major general.

Even the armies led by many military generals will be named after their commanders. For example, the army under General Dingguo will be called the Jiang Family Army.

The former old general and his son Jiang Changgong gained many military exploits along the way, and later successfully took over General Dingguo's mansion and received the seal of General Dingguo. Unfortunately, after the death of the old general, he fought several defeats. Lowered the grade from second grade to third grade.

And Jiang Bonian was even worse than his father. He had been hanging out in the military camp since he was a child, but his grades were very average. Seeing that the general's mansion was about to decline, he had no choice but to go to the battlefield. As a result, he was not only defeated but also lost tens of thousands of troops, and even had thousands of collaborators. They are inextricably linked, so they are not qualified to inherit military power at all.

So after Jiang Changgong became an official, the plaque of General Dingguo's Mansion would be removed and turned into Chiang's Mansion. Of course, if the emperor didn't want to see him, he might have to take back the house.

The Jiang family is really inferior to every generation.

However, Ning Ruyan didn't think this was God's help. She had a hunch that the issuance of the imperial edict at this time must have something to do with Jiang Yan.

And he was kind enough not to let me move out.

"Miss, why don't you seem very happy?" Zisu glanced at Ning Ruyan and found that her face was a little solemn.

"Although the siege has been solved, Wuzhong cannot take it lightly." Ning Ruyan looked at the girls, "Especially Sang Ye, you must be careful."

"I know." Sang Ye nodded, "But I'm not afraid of him either."

"This has nothing to do with whether you are afraid or not. He is a villain." Ning Ruyan patted Sang Ye on the head, "Remember, it is better to offend a gentleman than a villain, understand? Bai Zhi, please give everyone some self-defense medicine. If you encounter danger, you can at least fight back as soon as possible."

"Okay." Bai Zhi nodded, "I prepared some originally and will give them to you to take with you later."

The imperial edict made Mrs. Huo even more uneasy and anxious, but Jiang Changgong seemed to be relieved. After happily seeing off the eunuch who came to deliver the edict, he glanced at Mr. Huo: "From now on, I will be the old man in this mansion. All Let the younger generation do the work, and don’t bother me if you have nothing to do.”

"You..." Huo frowned.

But Jiang Changgong has already left.

Huo dropped another cup angrily.

Aunt Yuan didn’t even want to persuade her now because it was useless.

The most anxious person was Jiang Mingzhu. She didn't even care about the dowry and she was pregnant, so she hurriedly ran in: "Mom, why did dad become an official? What should I do? My husband will go to Beijing in the future, and now the family has no money. That's it, there is no way out, so how can I stabilize my position?" Huo glanced at her daughter and felt exhausted: "There is nothing we can do."

"How could this happen?" Jiang Mingzhu shouted, "I don't care, mother, you have to find a way for me. Even if dad comes down, if you have money, you have to prepare 2000 taels of silver for me. It will be about the same by then. It can be unclogged and unclogged.”

"2000 taels? Where can I find 2000 taels for you?"

"Don't we have a shop at home? You can sell another shop." Jiang Mingzhu hugged Huo's arm and started shaking it, "Mom, you can't ignore mine."

"Bullshit."

"Mom, if you don't agree, I...I will die here." Jiang Mingzhu said as she suddenly pulled out the hairpin on her head and poked it on her neck.

Aunt Yuan grabbed her arm with quick eyes and hands: "Miss, you can't do it."

"Mom, if my husband doesn't get an official position, he will definitely blame me, and he will definitely not enter my room then. Mom, you can't see your daughter in such misery..." Jiang Mingzhu didn't really want to die at that time, this was just It's just a means for her to achieve her goal.

Huo felt her head was buzzing, but this was the daughter she had given birth to after all the hard work. She couldn't really ignore it, so she couldn't help but close her eyes: "Okay, I'll find a way for you."

"I know that my mother loves me the most." Jiang Mingzhu was immediately happy when she heard this. "Then I will go back first. My husband wrote a letter saying that it will arrive the day after tomorrow. I have to prepare." After saying that, she turned around and ran away.

"These are all debts." Huo shook her head, then glanced at Aunt Yuan, "Go and have a look at that porcelain shop. If there is a suitable buyer, you should take action."

"Yes." Aunt Yuan responded and left.

Huo couldn't help but lean on the pillow and close her eyes. She seemed to have a dream in a daze. In the dream, he was very beautiful, and his home was harmonious and peaceful. Although Jiang Bonian could not come back, he was living a good life outside. She would also The son was sent to be raised by the Ning family, and Jiang Bowen also became an official...

This dream was very good, so when Huo opened her eyes suddenly, she didn't think it was a dream. She didn't realize it for a long time, and she still felt like she was still awake. It wasn't until Aunt Yuan came back that she finally came back to her senses.

"The price of the porcelain shop is not high because the business is average. Some people asked about it, but they only gave 600 taels." Aunt Yuan sighed and told Mr. Huo the news.

"It shouldn't be like this." Huo looked at Aunt Yuan and muttered to herself, "It really shouldn't be like this."

"Old Madam?" Aunt Yuan frowned, "What's wrong with you?"

"Aunt Yuan, life in the mansion shouldn't be like this." Huo grabbed Aunt Yuan's hand, "Our life should be very good, not... Yes, the Ning family, they are all in the Ning family On the body."

Aunt Yuan was even more confused.

"Quickly, change my clothes and go to Wutong Courtyard." Mr. Huo got off the Arhat bed.

Although Aunt Yuan didn't know why, she still hurriedly called for people to come over and help Huo change her clothes and wash up. Then she called a sedan chair and carried her to Wutong Courtyard. She had no choice but to leave from the outside because she couldn't get through the mansion.

Ning Ruyan was reading Zhang Jian's letter when she heard Huo's arrival. Although she was surprised, she still went out to welcome the person in. After sitting down, she was served tea, and then she said: "Mother, you came here suddenly at this time. It's What's the matter?" (End of chapter)
