Young Master, my wife brought the memories of her past life and was reborn to save the house.

"You..." Jing Miaoyi raised her finger and pointed at Shen Lian, and the finger pointing at Shen Lian trembled violently.

Aunt Song touched Jing Miaoyi's back distressedly.

Jing Miaoyi shouted angrily: "Your father, your annual salary is only five hundred taels, and five hundred taels is enough to support the expenses of the people in the house. You have to give one tael of gold to everyone outside in one breath. You Have you ever calculated how many taels of silver one tael of gold is?"

"One tael of gold is equivalent to ten taels of silver. There are at least two thousand people outside, so that's tens of thousands of taels of silver. Even if you mortgage our Shen family house and sell it, you won't be able to use the money to compensate the people outside. "

"If it can be brought out, tomorrow the Metropolitan Procuratorate will charge your father with corruption. At that time, all the assets of the Shen Mansion will be controlled by the court. If your father is still in prison, another charge will be added. You are in trouble. do you know!"

Shen Lian's neck shrank. She didn't think so much. She felt that the Shen family's expenses were running smoothly and they never had to worry about food and clothing. They should have a lot of money.

"Then...then what will happen to our Shen family if we find out that our father is corrupt?"

Jing Miaoyi felt dizzy.

What does it mean to "discover that your father is corrupt"...

At this time, Shen Wan walked through the hanging flower gate and explained to Shen Lian: "According to the laws of our dynasty, convictions are based on the amount of corruption. If it is found that Shen's house exceeds tens of thousands of taels of gold and official silver, his home will be confiscated and exiled, and the amount of corruption will be doubled ten times. , they will be beheaded in public, and if the amount is larger, the nine clans will be killed."

Behead! !

Shen Lian felt a chill on her neck, and then she truly realized that she was scared: "Well, then... I just said too much money in compensation."

Her eyes turned red and she looked at Shen Wan: "I don't want to die. I really don't know if the Shen family can afford it. People in the house say that the third brother is very good at making money. He always brings back a lot when he goes overseas to do business. Good thing, people from the aristocratic circles in the capital come to buy jewelry and clothes from Third Brother, and make a lot of money, I thought Third Brother had it."

"Shut up." Jing Miaoyi raised her hand to rub her temples.

However, Shen Lian is scared now.

She was afraid that her house would be confiscated and her head would be beheaded.

She returned to the Shen family to enjoy the glory and wealth, not to die with the Shen family.

"Mom, I know I was wrong, but I just said those words. If I don't say them, wouldn't it make me look like a liar? What should I do?"

"Don't worry about this matter anymore. Take the second lady back to Zuilian Courtyard." Jing Miaoyi gritted her teeth, turned away, and said to Manager An: "Go and open the warehouse and granary, and give everyone outside Ten cents and five kilograms of polished rice. Say something nice to them. If anyone hears what the second lady just said, tell them that they heard it wrong. What the second lady said was that each person would be given ten cents and five kilograms of polished rice. , the Shen family will also pay condolences to the martyrs in the future, and the court also attaches great importance to this matter, and must appease the people and prevent them from making trouble again."

After Jing Miaoyi said these words, she took a long breath.

We can't let the matter ferment any longer, otherwise it will only become more and more detrimental to the Shen family, and the master's current situation will also be very bad.

I'm just afraid that if nothing happens by then, someone will accuse me of something.

Losing your official position is a small matter, but losing your life... is a big deal.

Jing Miaoyi never expected that her sixth sense could be so accurate.

"Madam, eldest lady, please go and see the eldest son quickly. The imperial doctors are helpless." Manager Nie of Linfengju hurried over.

Shen Wan walked over, held Jing Miaoyi's hand, and asked, "How is the eldest son doing now?"

"I'm unconscious, but I keep complaining about pain. I can't feed the soup and medicine. The wound on my back is suppurating. I scream a few times from time to time."

Oh, that's when the packet of medicinal powder she gave Xie Yujin took effect.

"Sui Sui, go and see your eldest brother quickly. Your eldest brother must have suffered a lot in prison last night."

suffering? That's nothing.

When Ajin was seriously injured, he wandered outside for a long time, and his body suffered a lot. Even though he recovered later, he still had to bear the heart-breaking pain every day.

The pain that Shen Chengxiao is experiencing now is all the fault of the Shen family.

……

When Shen Wan and Jing Miaoyi walked from Chuihua Gate to Linfeng Residence, they encountered several groups of Imperial City Division officers coming in and out to search Shen's residence.

Shen Wan raised her eyes slightly and looked at the young man in purple clothes, Prince Jin, who was standing in the pavilion opposite. He stood with his hands behind his back and was also staring at her.

Jing Miaoyi would not let the Imperial City Department find out anything that was detrimental to Shen Zhengyi. When she let the Imperial City Department enter the inner courtyard to search the various courtyards, she had already sent the stewards of each courtyard to personally keep an eye on the Imperial City Department's attendants. soldiers.

In case someone takes the opportunity to harm the Shen Mansion and finds some stolen goods, King Jin may return without success today.

But now that Shen Chengxiao has been released, Shen Zheng must have admitted the crime. It just depends on how he pleads guilty.

"Ah..." Shen Chengxiao's screams came from inside Linfeng House.

Jing Miaoyi quickened her pace and walked into the room.

Several imperial doctors were standing in front of the bed. Among them, Imperial Physician Luo was giving Shen Chengxiao acupuncture, but it didn't seem to have much effect, and it made Shen Chengxiao even more uncomfortable.

"Doctors, how is my son?" Jing Miaoyi asked.

Doctor Liang said: "The wound on the eldest son's body has suppurated, and he was still in a coma when he was sent back to Linfeng Residence. But sleeping like this, the eldest son looks very painful."

Jing Miaoyi took a closer look and saw Shen Chengxiao's face wrinkled in pain, as if he was having a nightmare that no one else could wake up from.

Meng knelt down and cried: "Eldest Young Master, please wake up quickly. It will be fine if you wake up. You are having a nightmare. The eldest lady is not dead. She is not dead."

Shen Wan paused and looked at Shen Chengxiao indifferently.

What is he dreaming about?

At this time, Meng walked up to Shen Wan on her knees, reached out and grabbed Shen Wan's skirt and said: "Miss, the eldest son has been calling your name just now, and has been calling the imperial doctor to save you. The eldest son has been here even in his dreams. Miss you."

"Shut up." Jing Miaoyi had a headache from Meng's quarrel.

She didn't want to see the Meng family as a commoner. If she hadn't passed on the family line to Shen Chengxiao and gave birth to six children, Jing Miaoyi would have wanted to send her away.

Things that cannot be put on the table will only make you cry.

Meng was suppressed and did not dare to cry anymore. She lowered her voice as if she was afraid of waking up the man on the bed: "Miss, the eldest young master..." He can't live without you.

Before the next words were spoken, Shen Wan's eyes as cold as ice fell on Meng.

Meng shuddered hard and swallowed the words in her mouth.

It turns out that the eldest lady knows that the eldest young master likes her...

"Sui Sui, go see your eldest brother and let him wake up first. He looks like he's having a nightmare." Jing Miaoyi felt sorry for her eldest son.

Shen Wan said hello, took the silver needle from Imperial Physician Luo, and inserted it into Shen Chengxiao's body.

Shen Chengxiao's painful expression slowly relaxed, as if he had fallen asleep peacefully.

In fact, he fell into a complete coma.

At this time, Steward An held a greeting card in his hand and sent it to Linfeng Residence: "Madam, this is a greeting card from the Duke of Zhen. He said he wanted to talk to Madam about the marriage between the eldest lady and Young Master Xie."

Jing Miaoyi took the greeting card, opened it and looked at it, a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

How could he come to her in person?
