Chapter 245 Nie Chen and Nie Lian

Before Guo's injury was cured, he was taken to Jinling by the King of Qi.

However, Shoufu Guo was prepared for a long time. Not only did he let Guo Shaoyan return home in advance, but he also retired due to illness after arriving in Jinling.

After Guo Shoufu retired, he closed his door to thank the guests. The King of Qi also visited him in person. It was July, and Guo Shoufu's house was stinking, which was the smell of feces, urine and rotting flesh.

The King of Qi was smoked out without even sitting.

From then on, the King of Qi removed the surveillance of Shoufu Guo.

After hearing this, He Ran was worried about Shoufu Guo, but when she learned that King Qi would no longer monitor, she understood everything.

If she were Shoufu Guo, she would have done the same.

Guo Shaoyan has only one son. Guo Shaoyan is not in Jinling, and Guo Shaoyan has no worries. As long as the King of Qi and the Emperor no longer value him, he can spend the rest of his life safely.

The several aides around Guo Shoufu had disappeared long before they headed south.

Among them is Nie Chen.

Guo Shaoyan recommended Nie Chen to He Ran. He Ran specially sent He Jiangqi to lead twenty Eagle teams to Xiaoshan. After much trouble, Nie Chen and his mother and sister were picked up to Jinyang.

Nie Chen and Guo Shaoyan not only come from the same sect, but they are also good friends.

Half the reason why they become friends is that they share the same sympathy.

Guo Shaoyan has a Shen Danru who has been separated for many years, while Nie Chen has a cousin who has separated from each other.

Nie Chen comes from the Nie clan of Xiaoshan. Nie clan is a famous pen on the previous dynasty, and his ancestors once entered the prime minister's mansion as penan.

At the beginning of the dynasty, Nie was cautious and kept his children at home. It was not until Taizu died that he gradually let his children come out of the mountain, but it was mostly in local yamen like prefectures and counties.

In Xiaoshan, the Nie family can only be regarded as a well-off family and is a match with his aunt's family.

However, my uncle wanted his daughter to marry into a wealthy family, rather than marrying a small master.

The young man Nie Chen studied hard and wanted to get fame and fortune. He wanted to be an official. Only by becoming an official can his uncle agree to this marriage.

However, his test of fame and fortune was too slow to keep up with his cousin's pace of getting married.

He was eighteen years old and passed the exam for scholar as the head of the case. His cousin was sixteen and married into a wealthy family in the city.

Nie Chen was recommended by the county school to study at Qingfeng Academy in the capital, where he met Guo Shaoyan.

Originally, Nie Chen was just heartbroken. After he met Guo Shaoyan, a person who had the same fate and had no idea of ​​taking the imperial examination.

But he and Guo Shaoyan are different.

Guo Shaoyan’s way to heal himself is to travel around and drink and sing.

Nie Chen left Qingfeng Academy and returned to Xiaoshan to follow his elders at home. He studied for a full ten years from learning how to be an aide to traveling around with his elders and dealing with officials from all over the country.

Ten years later, he wrote to Guo Shaoyan, who introduced him to his father.

Shoufu Guo had more than a dozen staff members around him, and Nie Chen was just one of them at that time.

But it only took Nie Chen a year to let Shoufu Guo look at him differently, which shows his ability.

However, Nie Chen did not get married.

Before Guo Shoufu went south, he asked Nie Chen and others to return to their hometown first, which was also a protection for them.

Nie Chen returned to Xiaoshan, but learned that his sister-in-law accidentally fell into the water and died.

Originally, my sister-in-law died, but Nie Chen never expected that his family would hold his death on his sister's head. My sister-in-law's surname is Gao.

Nie Chen's sister is named Nie Lian. She married into the Gao family for several years and gave birth to three sons. The couple can't say that they are so loving, but they respect each other as guests.

Nie Lian has a dowry maid named Qingju.

Qingju married the Gao family's manager, so Qingju still stayed with Nie Lian as the manager after getting married.

Nie Lian trusts Qingju very much and even regards her as her sister.

However, it was Qingju, who was as close as a sister, who not only got along with Gao Meishou, but also gave birth to children. Qingju had a son and a daughter who belonged to Gao Meishou.

All the elders of the Gao family knew what Qingju’s children were like. In order to cover up the ugliness, they promoted Qingju’s husband and brought Qingju’s two children into the mansion to study with Nie Lian’s children.

By chance, Nie Lian learned about this, and she was very angry and quarreled with Gao Meizi.

Gao's sister-in-law came out of her house and went to the flower boat to drink. Gao's sister-in-law came out and woke up and fell into the river.

Although he was discovered at that time, it was late at night and it took a lot of effort to rescue the person, but he had already died.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

The Gao family believed that if Nie Lian had not quarreled with Gao's sister-in-law, such a tragic thing would not have happened. Therefore, they counted Gao's sister-in-law's death on Nie Lian's head, and first forced Nie Lian to remember the child born by Qingju. In his own name, he later forced Nie Lian to die for his throne.

The Nie family also knew about this, but the ancestors in the clan did not think there was anything wrong with this matter.

They believe that although Nie Lian is a married daughter, if she becomes a chaste woman, she will also bring glory to the Nie family.

Nie Lian's father is gone, and his brother Nie Chen is not around. There is only a widow in the family who has no right to speak in the clan.

There is only one way to die before Nie Lian.

When Nie Chen returned home, he saw his mother crying. Only then did he realize that something had happened to his sister.

When he arrived at Gao's house, Nie Lian had been on a hunger strike for five days.

The Gao family has prepared a coffin, and even the article of asking for a wife to write a letter has been written. The whole family is waiting for Nie Lian to die.

Nie Lian’s three sons, the oldest is sixteen years old and the youngest is twelve years old. They and the rest of the Gao family are waiting for Nie Lian to die for the feud.

Nie Chen was furious and beat his three nephews to death in front of Gao's in-laws.

My uncle beats my nephew, as long as I don’t beat him to death, it’s okay if I go to court.

Not only did Nie Chen beat his nephews, he also sued all three nephews to the yamen, suing them for being unfilial and forcing their mother to death.

The Gao family was really anxious this time. The uncle sued his nephew, and he was sure to sue him. What's more, this uncle is still a person around Guo Shoufu. Although Guo Shoufu has retired now, the local parents still have to give him some face.

Nie Chen used his three nephews' reputation to threaten the Gao family.

In the end, the Gao family agreed to Nie Lian's return, and Nie Lian and Gao family were in good condition. In addition to returning the dowry, the Gao family also compensated Nie Lian with three thousand taels of silver.

In exchange, Nie Chen withdrew the complaint.

He Ran only learned about this after meeting Nie Chen, his mother and sister.

At this time, Nie Lian had changed his name to Nie Lian.

And Nie Chen said something to He Ran.

"The reason why Nie came to Jinyang was not only because of Junior Brother Guo's admiration for you, but also because of Nie's selfishness.

Although the sister of her family has returned home, she still has to suffer a lot of criticism when she stays in Xiaoshan and stays in the clan. But Nie wants to change her environment and let her start over. ”
