Co-wife

Chapter 254

After the right minister returned to the capital, he was immediately summoned by the emperor to go to the palace, which shows that the emperor attached great importance to this matter!

After staying in the palace for a full two hours, I saw Prime Minister You left the palace and returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion. At the same time, Zhou Tianmiao, a third-rank official, was appointed by the emperor as an imperial envoy, and went to Liaocheng to arrest Cao Ran, and returned to the capital today!

Cao Ran was still thinking of ways to please the prince, but he never thought that the matter happened so quickly, even if the prince wanted to protect him, he would not have time in the future!

That night, Cao Ran hadn't rested yet, because the matter of the rice had annoyed the prince, he was still thinking hard, but Shu'er couldn't help sending someone to urge him over and over again, and then he left the study!

As soon as he stepped out of the door of the study, he saw the door guard running over in a hurry, shouting. "Master, it's not good, it's not good!"

Cao Ran frowned, looked displeasedly at the running boy, and said angrily. "In the middle of the night, why are you in such a hurry!"

After hearing this, the young servant didn't care about anything else, said. "My lord, there are a lot of officials coming outside, saying they are looking for you!"

When Cao Ran heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he asked quickly. "But look at who is coming from outside?"

"This little one doesn't know!" Cao Ran was always afraid, so he asked the boy to answer first, and then went to the backyard to wake up Shu'er, and then sent someone to call Cao Yu to get up.

Seeing her husband behaving like this, Shu'er said. "Husband, is something wrong?"

"There must be something wrong. There are many officials coming from outside. I don't know why!" Cao Ran thought for a while and said. "Shu'er, pack up quickly. Go to the east of the city with your second brother!"

"Husband, what about you, is it possible that you don't want to go?" Shu Er quickly got out of bed, put on her clothes, and talked without Cao Ran, Cao Yu entered the room and said. "Brother, it's too late. I just went to the back door. I saw that the front and back of this house are surrounded by officials!"

When Cao Ran heard this, his whole body went limp. Seeing this, Shu'er quickly supported him and said. "Husband..."

"Brother, you'd better go out, I must have entered the front yard by now!" Cao Yu had expected this to happen earlier.I didn't expect it to be so fast, but Cao Yu did not expect it to be so fast. If Cao Ran hadn't been greedy for money, how could he be so easily manipulated by the right minister?

And Cao Yu didn't know that his elder brother would be greedy for money and become a corrupt official, and so on.Wouldn't that be lifting a rock and shooting yourself in the foot?

Zhou Tianmiao's visit this time was a lot of noise, and Zhou Huo was bright.It also disturbed the surrounding households, everyone got up and came out to watch the excitement!

Cao Ran was destined to be unable to escape, so he had to be taken away by Zhou Tianmiao, but his family members were not implicated for the time being, but they were also guarded and were not allowed to leave the courtyard gate!

As soon as this matter came out, it spread in Liaocheng the next day.Chen Chunhua's family didn't know that things would happen so quickly, and when Chen Chunhua found out.It was three days later, except for Baiyao who sent someone to speak, and Xu Zi who came to speak in person!

As soon as Xu Zi came, the boss and the third child felt uncomfortable. They couldn't see their daughter-in-law talking to Xu Zi, and they felt very depressed!

Chen Chunhua smiled and looked at Xu Zidao. "Thank you, the county magistrate, for making a trip in person. Cao Ran's fate is the result of his own crimes!" Chen Chunhua naturally knew that there must be other reasons for this!

"Cao Ran embezzled the 30 taels of silver promoted by Xiudujiang. If it wasn't for this, it would take some time for his officials to put him in jail, but this Cao Ran is really brainless. You dare to be so blatant because you think there is a prince around!"

Speaking of the prince, after learning that Cao Ran had entered the prison, he took sick leave for half a month and did not go to court, let alone say a good word to Cao Ran. Cao Ran was in the prison hoping that the prince would send someone to inform him, but he kept No one was waiting.

This matter is a foregone conclusion, and no one in the court speaks for Cao Ran, not to mention the faction of the right minister who is eager to dismiss Cao Ran from office, even the faction of the prince. Shui, not to mention those officials who are not familiar with Cao Ran, if they didn't make trouble, it was already in the prince's face, and it was considered wise and safe!

Cao Ran was only detained in the prison. On the second day, after the emperor's words, Zhou Tianmiao took people to Liaocheng again this week, ransacked Cao Ran's home, drove his family members out of the gate, and sealed the house!Then it was reported to the imperial court, and Cao Ran's property was filled into the national treasury. According to the statistics, Cao Ran, a mere fourth-rank official, had a total of one million taels of valuables in his family!

But the matter was not over yet, the emperor wanted to beat the prince's faction, how could he beat Cao Ran alone?Not to mention the correspondence letters of many officials were found from Cao Ran's home, and the money exchanges between Cao Ran and those officials were also recorded one by one. When Zhou Tianmiao got the account book, don't mention how happy he was, Cao Ran was himself Digging a grave!

"Based on Cao Ran's personality, it's not surprising that he could do such a thing, but he was a bit impatient!" Chen Chunhua said, looking at the boss and the third child, and frowned slightly when they saw them staring at Xu Zi. Frowning, said. "Big brother, third brother, what's wrong with you?"

The boss and the third child coughed a few times and said. "It's nothing, it's just that Cao Ran was arrested and put in prison, but will he be released later?"

"It's not certain. Cao Ran was not interrogated at the moment, and he must have other plans. If Cao Ran is like this this time, let alone the official, he will be dispatched to the border. It won't come back in four or five years!"

"That's good, it's just a bad breath, then Cao Ran is really annoying!" The third child remembered that he was angry because of the building, and said about the building, the third child looked at the building. Xu Zi said. "County magistrate, since Cao Ran is in jail, maybe the lock of the building in our house was unlocked?"

"It can be opened, look, this is the key!" Xu Zi has always remembered this matter, but he mentioned it to the right minister once, and he really brought it over, but he didn't, the lock is knocked. !

The boss saw Xu Zi taking care of his own affairs in the house like this, but he didn't know what to do. Can he talk to his wife about this matter?

Chen Chunhua didn't think about it either, Xu Zi even took the key and said. "Thank you county magistrate!" Xu Zi twitched when he heard Chen Chunhua call him magistrate. "No thanks!"

After Xu Zi left, the third child took the key to open the door, and immediately called the mother-in-law to clean the building for Haosheng. When it was dark, all the things in the house were moved in!

Chen Chunhua has been looking forward to it for a long time, and now it is really available. Chen Chunhua's family lives on the second floor, several women and six sons and two brothers live on the first floor, and they moved into the building. The happiest thing is It's Liuzi and Shunzi!

Running from the first floor to the third floor back and forth several times is not too busy and tiring!

Chen Chunhua was also very strange, she was not used to it at night, maybe because she was used to living on the kang in the yard, she always felt uncomfortable sleeping on the wooden bed.

Seeing his daughter-in-law moving around restlessly, the boss clamped her flailing legs and said. "Daughter-in-law, what are you doing? Could it be that you feel uncomfortable?"

Chen Chunhua sighed, sat up, and looked at the old road. "Brother, I feel uncomfortable, I'm afraid I'm used to sleeping on the kang!"

"Why are you uncomfortable? This bed is no different from the bed on the kang, they are all the same!" The eldest couldn't sleep at the moment, but the third went to bed early and worked hard for most of the day, moving the things in the yard with everyone. Come here, I'm tired!

It's no wonder Chen Chunhua is uncomfortable, maybe it's because of her body!

The boss sat up with him, looked at his wife and said. "Daughter-in-law, what do you think the county magistrate has?"

"What's the matter?" Chen Chunhua didn't know what the boss meant.

The boss sighed, put his arms around his daughter-in-law's shoulders, let her lean in his arms, and said. "You really didn't see it?"

"What do I see?"

"The county magistrate is thinking about you, otherwise why would he be so concerned about the affairs of our house? Last time, because of the matter of the building, you passed out in the yamen, and it was he who hugged you in a hurry. After you entered the wing room, the caller behind called for a doctor to come, and even boiled medicine for you himself, that’s not counting, if it were someone else, he would be busy with his work?"

The boss felt much more at ease when he said these words, he couldn't see his daughter-in-law's face clearly at night, and felt that she didn't say anything after hearing these words!

Chen Chunhua really didn't know about it. After the boss said this, she also felt that something was wrong here, so she said it after a while. "Brother, what did you tell me to do this?"

"I don't do anything, I just want to talk to you, and I feel uncomfortable holding back, seeing the county magistrate thinking about his wife, how can I feel better?" He could see that the county magistrate The official is concerned about his daughter-in-law, but the daughter-in-law is his own, no matter whether he is the county official or something, he can't say anything if he is thinking about it!

Chen Chunhua nodded, yawned, and said. "Brother, don't think about it too much. I'm already a mother. The county magistrate is also watching. Maybe you are thinking too much. The county magistrate is a good-looking person with a handsome appearance. Is there any girl you want? And why would he fall in love with me, not to mention whether he can see me or not, I'm married to you and third brother, it's out of the question!" After saying this, Chen Chunhua couldn't hold back her drowsiness, He fell asleep in the arms of the boss in a daze, and didn't know what the boss said to him behind!

Boss doesn't think this is out of the question. In previous years, there were quite a few wives like them, and life in the house was not good. There were not a few people who came in and shared wives later, but their lives were not as good as before. This matter It's less.

Even though his daughter-in-law doesn't have much thought, but the county magistrate is thinking about his daughter-in-law, the boss feels very sad when he thinks about it, and he can't sleep after thinking about it all night!

Half a month after Cao Ran entered the prison, the court was calm. The more it was like this, the more uncertain the officials were. It's done, let Zhou Tianmiao investigate it secretly later!
