Original Collection

When Xiao Shiji came, Xiao Taiji told him about the sudden disaster of his Yue family and asked his eldest brother for help.

Xiao Shiji didn't want to take care of the Guan family's affairs at first, but now hearing Long Xiangye mention the past of his father Xiao Xiangsheng, he was a little moved.

"Mother, I'll go to Dali Temple to ask someone to find out what's going on. What exactly did Guan Xiancheng commit?" Xiao Shiji asked carefully.

Long Xiangye was a little dissatisfied, supported Xiao Taiji's hand, stared at Xiao Shiji and said: "What can you do? You must be framed! ——You are so highly valued by King Yi, and you help King Yi After doing so many things, it's not too much for him to give you favors, right?"

Xiao Taiji also looked at Xiao Shiji with hope, and begged, "Brother, we are all relatives..."

Xiao Shiji felt very uncomfortable, and said lightly: "It's your Yue's family, not my Yue's family. If you say they are relatives, Shuang'er and the others are also relatives with us, and they are family friends. I have never seen you be so enthusiastic."

Long Xiangye hurriedly said: "If something happened to the Du family, I will ask you to help them. But now that she is married to a high-ranking official, why does she need our ability? You should hurry up and find out, it's too late Worried that the in-laws and his wife will suffer a lot in prison."

Xiao Taiji also quickly said: "Brother, if my father-in-law and mother-in-law are difficult to save, you can save my brother-in-law and brother-in-law first."

Xiao Shiji turned around and left, "I'll ask and find out what the crime is." In short, he refused to make a promise.

Long Xiangye sighed and shook her head, and said to Xiao Taiji, "Don't blame your elder brother. He will do his best."

Where did Xiao Taiji dare to blame Xiao Shiji, he hurriedly supported Long Xiangye back to the bed and lay down, then called the servant girl to serve him, and went back to his yard by himself.

Chen Yuejiao and Aunt Jin have already settled down, living in the west wing of Chen Yuejiao and Xiao Taiji's courtyard.

The house of the Xiao family is big, and each yard is as big as a three-entry house of an ordinary family.

Xiao Tai and the west wing of the courtyard where they live are similar to the main house in Guanxian Cheng's house.

Aunt Jin was very grateful and brought Chen Yuejiao over to talk to Guan Yunlian.

When Xiao Taiji came in, Aunt Jin was comforting Guan Yunlian.

"Brother-in-law is here." Chen Yuejiao turned her head and saw Xiao Taiji coming in, she hurriedly saluted him obediently.

Xiao Taiji glanced at her. "Yeah," said, "Sister, don't be polite here, treat it like your own home, if there is anything missing, just tell your cousin."

Guan Yunlian was even more grateful when she saw that Xiao Taiji had given her natal family face.With all the sorrow on his face, he personally brought a bowl of tea to Xiao Taiji, and said jokingly: "Erlang, today my mother said that my cousin was born like your sister-in-law who has never been married when she was young, do you think it looks like it?"

Xiao Taiji took a sip, looked up and saw Chen Yuejiao looking at him with a smile.Thinking of what mother said just now, he also looked at her intently.Putting down the tea bowl, he said, "My younger sister actually doesn't look like Miss Du."

Guan Yunlian only saw Du Hengshuang once the day before yesterday, but she was deeply impressed by her appearance.Her complexion is delicate and fair, and her facial features are as delicate and beautiful as a national peony.

But Chen Yuejiao was as beautiful as a chrysanthemum in three autumns, she was a beauty of two completely different forms.

I don't know why Long Xiangye said they look alike.

Guan Yunlian nodded in agreement with Xiao Taiji's words, "I also don't think they look alike at all. But what mother said was when she was a child, and I haven't seen Miss Du's appearance when she was a child, so I dare not say whether she looks like it or not."

Xiao Taiji smiled and said, "Ms. Du has always had an oval face. She has had it since she was a child. My younger sister has a typical oval face. The difference is too great."

Guan Yunlian's eyes flickered.

Obviously my cousin looks nothing like Miss Du when she was a child.Why did the mother-in-law say that?

Xiao Taiji smiled, "Let's have lunch, I only had a sip of hot tea after running all morning."

Guan Yunlian hurriedly withdrew her thoughts, went to the kitchen to look at the food in person, sent it to Aunt Jin and Chen Yuejiao to the West Wing, and let their mother and daughter eat by themselves. She brought her maid to deliver a set of dishes to Long Xiangye before returning to her yard. Accompany Xiao Taiji for lunch.

Xiao Shiji left Xiao's house, and immediately came to Dali Temple, found a colleague who also worked under the command of King Yijun, and inquired about the case of Guanxian Cheng who was just detained today.

The colleague took a file and rummaged through it for a long time, finally found the page of Guan County Cheng, and read to Xiao Shiji: "Guan Zheng, Chang'an County Cheng, was taken into custody for corruption of ink. The family property was seized and some stolen money was confiscated. "

Xiao Shiji glanced at the file quickly, and asked, "Is there any possibility of making a mistake?"

The colleague laughed and closed the file and put it back, saying: "If it is said that he was imprisoned for murder, it may be a mistake. But it is absolutely impossible to make a mistake when it is said that he is greedy for ink."

"Why is that?" Xiao Shiji asked with a smile, "Didn't he say that he has a good official voice? He still has a breeze in his sleeves?"

The colleague said with a sneer: "I have never seen an official with a clean sleeve. You are also a person who has done this kind of thing. If you check other things, you may be framed. The only thing about corruption is to check ten officials. Maybe eleven officials can be found to be unclean."

Xiao Shiji was speechless, but he also knew the truth.

The corruption of ink was tacitly understood from top to bottom.If you want to punish someone, using greedy ink as an excuse is definitely not wronging the other party.

"Although it is true to be greedy for ink, but generally everyone keeps their eyes open and closes their eyes. If he stumbles this time, which god has he offended?" Xiao Shiji asked slowly, quoting the words of his colleagues.

The colleague looked around, made a gesture, and said: "Someone above thinks that this surname Guan is not pleasing to the eye, so let's not meddle indiscriminately."

Xiao Shiji hurriedly said: "It's not that I want to intervene. It's just that my family begged to come over. It's not good if I don't come to ask."

Only then did the colleague know that Guan is the Yue family of Xiao Shi and his younger brother.

"Fortunately, it's your brother's Yue's family, not your Yue's family." The colleague joked half-truthfully, and then assured Xiao Shiji, "It's just greedy for ink. If you pay off all the money, you will be dismissed and returned to your hometown." Enough is enough, there will be no danger to life."

Xiao Shiji nodded, "How much money is short. If you need it, tell me."

The colleague laughed and patted Xiao Shiji on the shoulder, winking at him, "If it's not enough, I will naturally find you."

Xiao Shiji got the letter, but he was not in a hurry to go back to the mansion, but turned around and went to Yijun Wangfu, stayed in Yijun Wangfu all afternoon, and returned to the mansion when it was almost dark.

Long Xiangye, Xiao Taiji, and Guan Yunlian have been anxiously waiting for the news.But it was not until it was time to light the lamp that Xiao Shiji came back.

"What's the matter? How's the in-laws?" Long Xiangye was the first to stand up and asked.

Xiao Shiji came over and supported Long Xiangye to sit down at the table, and said calmly: "The incident of corruption of ink in Guan County Prime Minister has been sued."

"Greedy? Impossible! My father..." Guan Yunlian immediately retorted.

"The evidence is convincing. I've seen it all." Xiao Shiji sat down beside Long Xiangye, "It's not that Guan Xiancheng was wronged. Even if the brothers and sisters went to the prison to ask, Guan Xiancheng might not be able to speak."

Guan Yunlian couldn't bear it anymore.With a cry, she rushed out of Long Xiangye's room and ran towards her yard.

Xiao Taiji's eyebrows twitched, and he ordered a few servant girls: "Second Young Mistress has left, why are you still sticking around here?"

Those servant girls rushed up and caught up with Guan Yunlian.

"Brother has been running outside all day. Are you hungry? I'll order the kitchen to serve." Xiao Taiji said, and went to the kitchen to order some Xiao Shiji's favorite dishes on weekdays.

Long Xiangye blinked.Some people don't believe Xiao Shiji's words, "How can my in-laws be greedy for ink? My in-laws have always been an official with nothing to do..."

Xiao Shiji interrupted Long Xiangye's words lightly, "Mother, it's okay for you to say something like 'an official with two sleeves', but don't say it outside, so as not to laugh people's big teeth."

"Is there really greedy ink?!" Long Xiangye was very surprised. "There's no excuse for that."

Xiao Taiji walked in with the cook, and spread the meals on the table one by one.

Xiao Shiji gave Long Xiangye a dish with chopsticks.He put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm not hungry, I'm resting in the outer courtyard today, and the inner courtyard can close the door and drop the spoons."

After Xiao Shiji left, Long Xiangye couldn't eat the food on the table, Xiao Taiji was still filial, and coaxed Long Xiangye to eat two pieces of glutinous rice lotus root in honey sauce, a few river prawns, and drank a bowl Oyster mushroom egg soup.

Guan Yunlian waited anxiously for a few days, and finally got the news of her parents, but they were dismissed from their posts for investigation, their property was confiscated, and the whole family was punished by being sent back to their original place of origin.

Although this punishment seemed heavy, it was much better than losing one's life.

Guanxian Cheng's family was released from Dali Temple, unable to even return home, and was about to leave for their hometown soon.

Guan Yunlian and Aunt Jin He Chen Yuejiao waited outside the city at Shili Pavilion to say goodbye to her parents.

When Guan Jin saw Guan Yunlian, he hugged her and cried bitterly together.

Aunt Jin persuaded her, and Guan Jin finally stopped crying, but said to Aunt Jin: "Sister, I will entrust Lian Er to you today. You live with Lian Er, what's wrong with you? Look at her, don't let her get into trouble. ——This time, your brother-in-law is completely confused, and he doesn't know which god he offended, so he was put on the line."

Aunt Jin originally wanted to live with the Xiao family.But before Guan Yunlian didn't give an accurate statement, she only said that they were "temporarily" living in Xiao's house, but now with Guan Jin's word, they can justifiably stay in Xiao's house forever.

Guan Yunlian's life in the mansion has not been easy recently.

Although the mother-in-law is still kind and kind, the servants of the Xiao family are a little bit disobedient.

Now that Guan Jinshi went to Dali Temple for a while, he took some things more seriously, and kept telling Guan Yunlian, "You must take good care of your mother-in-law, and before your sister-in-law enters the door, you must firmly hold the housekeeper in your own hands. .You took the first chance to enter the door, but you have to think carefully." Pointing to Aunt Jin, he said: "Mother is not by your side, and you have to rely on yourself in the future. Let Aunt Jin stay and take care of you. She's got it right too."

Guan Yunlian nodded again and again, "Aunt Jin is very powerful, with her here, my daughter will not suffer."

Guan Jin felt relieved and went back to his hometown with her husband, two sons and a daughter-in-law.

Xiao Shiji was noncommittal about having two more people in his family, but he was busy demolishing all the yard of the new house at home and turning it into a flower hall for banquets. In addition, he asked Mr. Feng Shui to choose a good place to build the yard of the new house.
