Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 219 Family
Liu Yuanliang has been investigating this matter at the border for the past ten years. He not only clears the name of his father Liu Yan, but also washes away the shame of tens of thousands of soldiers who have their bones buried in a foreign country. The dangers and hardships involved are unimaginable.

Only when the emperor presented his grievances to the emperor did Liu Yuanliang feel that the ten years of hardship were worth it.

This incident can be regarded as the most shocking corruption case since the founding of the Ling Kingdom. There may have been people with the same idea in the past, but there was no one as forbearing as Liu Yuanliang to expose it.

The Holy Spirit ordered the three divisions to hear the case together, and sent Cheng Guogong and other persons involved into prison to be imprisoned, pending the review of the three divisions.

The three masters of the Duke Cheng's Mansion had been detained in the Duke's Mansion by the Holy Emperor after Liu Yuanliang met the Saint, but no one made it public.

Therefore, Mrs. Hou Qiao was stopped many times when she went there, but the real reason was not told.

After the early court, Dali Temple sent people to take Qiao Wenzhong, the Duke of Chengguo, into the Dali Temple prison. The prince Qiao Zhensheng was dismissed from his errand and the movements of the Duke's wife Cai began to be unrestricted.

The evidence of Cheng Guogong's case was conclusive. Cai's mother and son knew that the situation was over and nothing could be done, but they still ran around and started asking for help.

On the same day, Chen Ge's hometown came to cancel their marriage to Qiao Zhensheng, which was a bit of aggravation, but Cai's mother and son did not bother and agreed to cancel the engagement.

It is still unclear whether Duke Cheng's mansion can be saved. Naturally, mother and son do not dare to quarrel with Mr. Chen Ge and make enemies at this time.

Qiao Waner is the eldest young lady of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. In the past few years, she has been married to a husband, raised a son and a daughter, and she has been very comfortable in the Shangshu Mansion.

Because Princess Mu had a grandson, and because her only daughter Qiu Chaner had a hard time with her grandson, Princess Mu no longer had the arrogance she once had.

Qiao Waner returned to her parents' home as soon as the incident broke out. After visiting her mother and brother, who were still well, she hurried back to her father-in-law, Qiu Shangshu, to plead for mercy.

After the death of Empress Dowager Cai, the Cheng'en Marquis Palace declined day by day. There was no title but no children in the family. Mrs. Cai had no idea about her mother's family standing up for her.

The first person in front of her was naturally her eldest aunt, Mrs. Qiao, the Marquis of Yongning. Mrs. Cai packed herself up and went to visit the Marquis of Yongning's Mansion.

Speaking of which, the Yongning Marquis Mansion is already a second- or third-rate family, and the children in the family are quite impressive. However, the current Yongning Marquis Jiang Feng is too conservative, and his vision is not as bright as the old Marquis.

The purpose of Mrs. Cai's visit to plead for mercy was actually to hope that Madam Hou Qiao would persuade her third daughter-in-law Tang Bingxuan to intercede with Queen Ping on behalf of Duke Cheng.

Except for the necessary palace banquets, it is difficult for Madam Hou Qiao to see the Queen on weekdays. Only Tang Bingxuan can do this.

At this time, Mrs. Cai no longer looked like a dignified and noble princess, and she cried bitterly while holding Mrs. Hou's hand.

"Sister, I know you are in trouble with this matter, but the Duke is your biological brother. If you don't help him, he will die."

Mrs. Qiao, the Marquis of Yongning, has always loved Tang Bingxuan as a daughter since she married her into the family. Now she is really hesitant to make things difficult for Tang Bingxuan because of her younger brother.

Mrs. Cai saw her eldest aunt looking confused and undecided, so she added, "Sister, since you can't speak up, how about you call Xuan'er to the main courtyard and I'll talk to her?"

Tang Bingxuan is now the life-saving straw in Cai's heart. She doesn't care about dignity or manners. As long as she can save the life of Duke Cheng, she is willing to kneel down and beg her nephew and daughter-in-law.

After Mrs. Hou made a difficult decision, she decided to go to the third room to invite Tang Bingxuan to come to the main courtyard for a talk.

Mrs. Cai and her eldest sister Qiao waited for a quarter of an hour. A servant came in to report that the third young lady, the young master and the young lady had returned to her parents' home, Rongguo Gongfu, this morning. Madam Hou was stunned for a moment when she heard the servant's report, and some thoughts quickly disappeared in her mind.

"Sister, your wife here is really smart."

Cai was unwilling to not see the person she wanted to see, but she thought of Duke Cheng Guo who was suffering in prison, so she had to leave and go to the next family to plead for mercy.

After comforting his younger brother and sister Cai for a few words, he promised that he would try his best to rescue his younger brother Cheng Guogong, and then personally escorted Cai out of the second gate.

Back in the house, Mrs. Hou asked the maid who had delivered the message majestically, "When did the Third Young Madam go out? Why didn't anyone say anything?"

On weekdays, when Tang Bingxuan returned to her parents' home or went out, she would come to the main courtyard to say something in advance or send someone to inform her. Never before, she had acted first and then announced something like today, which made Mrs. Hou feel a little uncomfortable.

"Going back to Madam, the Third Young Madam was able to make it in time when she went out. I heard that the in-law's wife was unwell;
When you sent someone over, you were talking to Mrs. Cheng Guogong, so you told the little maid in the courtyard, and the little maid was sent to help in the kitchen and forgot about it and got back to you. "

Mrs. Hou knew the reason why Tang Bingxuan left without saying goodbye, and she felt relieved for some reason.

"Is the Marquis in the study?"

Marquis Yongning Xianfu spent most of his time at home in the study in the outer courtyard. Madam Hou naturally had to decide where Marquis Yongning would go if she had something to discuss.

"Back to Madam, the eldest lady is back today. The Marquis is talking to the eldest lady in Aunt Zhao's yard."

When Jiang Tian returned to her natal family, the etiquette required her to pay homage to her aunt before meeting Aunt Zhao. Mrs. Hou was in the house worrying about her younger brother. When she heard that Jiang Tian was in the mood to entertain her when she came back, she sent Jiang Tian to Zhao. Auntie's yard.

Mrs. Hou rubbed her forehead. She had forgotten about Jiang Tian returning to her parents' home.

"Go to Aunt Zhao's courtyard and invite Mr. Hou to come to the main courtyard and tell me that I have something important to discuss."

Duke Cheng's affairs were an urgent matter at the moment, and it was the first time for Mrs. Yongninghou to send someone to disturb "that family's harmony."

Jiang Tian enjoyed a period of prosperity after she got married. Later, her husband Li Chong took his distant cousin as his concubine and no one in her mother's family stood up for her, so life gradually became difficult.

In the past few years, Jiang Tian had given birth to two children, both girls, but the concubine's cousin got a boy in one fell swoop, so Uncle Chang Ping, who valued her the most, was not as kind as before.

Jiang Tian was arrogant and petty-minded, and Li Chong's preference for favoring concubines made her very embarrassed and caused several quarrels. Only her father, Marquis Yongning, came to the Changping Mansion to stand up for her once, and everyone in the manor began to treat her as the crown prince's wife more and more. Getting more and more lazy.

If you really want to talk about it, Jiang Tian was not treated harshly in the daily expenses of the uncle's house. Even if the uncle's house gradually declined, he would continue to support the face of the uncle's house. Moreover, Jiang Tian's own dowry was quite large.

The most unbearable thing for Jiang Tian is that the Changping Mansion is ignored from top to bottom. She, the crown prince's wife, sometimes even orders the elders in the Mansion to humiliate her in the Mansion again and again;

In addition, every time she wanted to punish the concubine, her husband Li Chong would always get the news and come to the rescue. The couple would quarrel and break up every time.

The Marquis of Yongning, Jiang Feng, once thought that as long as he lived, his daughter Jiang Tian would not suffer in the Changping Mansion. Who would have thought that his father, who was surrounded by the inner house, could support her once, but could not come to guard her every day.

Generally, when a married woman is wronged, her mother or brothers and sisters-in-law come to defend her. It is better for women to talk to each other than to argue with Uncle Chang Ping;
