The Fourth Master's Favorite Concubine from the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 56 Past Events

The Geng family, no, had become the Geng Jia family and received the imperial edict in a daze.

Qingyou's E Niang could barely maintain the posture of a lady in front of outsiders. After the eunuch who announced the decree left, she quickly had someone support her.

"Master, what's going on? Why did such an imperial edict suddenly come out? It came so suddenly, and there was no preparation at all."

Qingyou's Amma didn't know what happened, but she calmed down and comforted Qingyou's mother before going out to inquire about the news.

Qingyou's Ama Geng Dejin thought in her heart that her eldest son Geng Jin had gone out to study, so it must not have been his fault. His second son was still stationed at the border. Although he had not heard of any war, it might be some secret. action.

Suddenly an idea came to Geng Dejin's mind. He didn't want to believe it and quickly shook the idea out of his mind.

The innocent Amma found people she knew well in daily life and asked why the emperor suddenly issued an imperial edict.

The information he found out made Geng Dejin smile bitterly.

The innocent Amma even thought that the worst news would be that her second son Geng Yin died in the battlefield. In order to appease people's hearts, the Holy One ordered to raise his flag. Although this possibility is indeed not very high, it is already The most reasonable explanation that Qingyou's Ama Geng Dejin could think of.

What he never expected was that his little daughter Qingyou was responsible for all this. It's not that Geng Dejin is too patriarchal, but that all three generations of the Geng family are sons. After Geng Dejin's generation had two sons, the Geng family has gone crazy about having a daughter, but Geng Dejin understands that he is afraid of these things in his life. No one would ever have a daughter again, but it was at such a desperate time that Qingyou was born.

It could be that Geng Dejin gave birth to a daughter in old age, so Qingyou was pampered and pampered from childhood to adulthood. Although she was so pampered by the Geng family, Qingyou's temperament was not spoiled at all. He has a heart that is too kind and too soft-hearted towards everyone.

Although the Geng family has had no daughters for three generations, the Geng family is a relatively large family. There have been many births of daughters over the years.

Knowing that Geng Dejin's branch is looking forward to a daughter, so he gave up and spent a lot of time in this regard. He wanted Geng Dejin to adopt a daughter. After all, they are both related by blood. This can also make the relationship between Geng Dejin and the collateral branch closer. Over the years, watching Geng Dejin was developing at a rapid pace, but his relationship with the collateral clan was also getting further and further away. Even among the entire Geng family, no one could be found who could achieve such development, and now there is no one who can compare with him. Get on.

But Geng Dejin did not agree at the time, and even reprimanded the person who proposed it at the time. As the saying goes, it is difficult to guard against a villain.

Later, with the birth of Qingyou, this matter fell into disuse.

Back then, the innocent Ama was framed by a villain. It was not that serious originally. It was just that some people from the sidelines resented the fact that they did not agree to the adoption. Over the years, they have watched Geng Dejin develop better and better step by step, and even She loves Qingyou so much.

There was even some resentment. If Geng Dejin agreed to adopt his daughter at that time, it would be his own child who would have all this.

The splendid silks, gold, silver and jewelry all belong to my children, and there may even be a better way out in the future.

Feeling dissatisfied for a moment, he teamed up with outsiders to frame Qingyou's Ama further away. That's why Qingyou's mother-in-law was so cautious and vigilant in her life in those years. But he still couldn't guard against the villain.

Ever since the villain from the collateral branch found out that Qingyou's Ama had been demoted, he thought there was no possibility of his coming back, so he began to bully Qingyou's family unscrupulously.

After Qingying, the daughter of the former collateral line, saw so many good things from Qingyou, she often took away many good things in front of Qingyou with sweet talk and coaxing. After knowing that Qingyou had lost power, Ama After that, the family became even more violent and began to engage in robbery mode.

Basically, after Qingyou's good things are seen, they will be taken away, although the clan will stop them in some cases that are really unbearable.

But the Qingying Ama got promoted step by step after reporting Geng Dejin, so the Geng family was not willing to offend the powerful villain for such a trivial matter.

Because this is the calculation in the hearts of the Geng family, Geng Dejin is a down-to-earth gentleman. Even if he did not help the Geng Dejin family when they were in trouble, he would not stumble behind Geng Dejin's back after he found out. Even after the ups and downs, I won't have any regrets about my family.

But if you offend that villain, you don't know when your family will be tricked and reported. Geng Dejin has the ability and strength and the money behind him to support him. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that he offended a villain this time, which led to the devolution.

But as long as you seize a few opportunities and circumstances, you will have a chance to recover.

Speaking of which, it also has a certain relationship with Prince Yong, who was Sibeile at that time.

At that time, Sibeile's master Yinzhen was also full of ambitions to rectify the workplace and rectify the dark aspects of officialdom. Therefore, the murderer behind the frame of Qingyou Ama and the villain of the Geng family were both pulled down.

The innocent Amma also seized the opportunity and returned to the capital. Also because the officialdom in the capital was being reorganized and many positions were vacant, Amma was able to move forward and become the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

It can be said that Qingyou Ama's return to Beijing and promotion have a certain relationship with Sibeile.

For this reason, the innocent Amma was very grateful to Sibeile Yinzhen. After learning that Qingyou was accused of marrying Sibeile, although Qingyou's Amma was angry, it had become an unchangeable fact. Qingyou's Amma could only make more adequate plans for Qingyou's future.

After a period of observation by Geng Dejin, Sibeile Yinzhen was not as aloof from the world as rumored, and was only willing to be a loyal minister of the prince and a lonely minister of the emperor.

Geng Dejin also understood that the Geng family behind him was definitely not Yinzhen's help. As the saying goes, a big tree attracts wind, and Geng Dejin also understands how dirty things exist behind the aristocratic family that has existed for generations.

Seizing tributes privately, embezzling and bribery, reselling things given by the royal family, etc. are enough to implicate the nine clans. Although Geng Dejin himself has never done it, and no one in the Geng family has done it, Geng Dejin does not guarantee that no one in his descendants has done it. After all, money is very attractive, let alone such a huge sum of money.

Therefore, the innocent Amma took this opportunity to break away from the family.
