The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

Jiang Nansheng leaned against the carriage, his expression unchanged. The light in the carriage was dim, which made Jiang Nansheng's eyes look even deeper.

He said the question with certainty, "Did the Wang family do it?"

He You replied respectfully: "...The person who came is from the Zhang family. He has not entered the government and is responsible for some unimportant business dealings of the Zhang family."

"...The one who beat him up was a branch of the Wang family named Wang Hao. From the military camp to the Guard Command, it was all Lord Wang and Lu Anhe who were secretly operating. After Lord Luo Quan was promoted, the person who took over his position as the commander of the Guard Command... had close contacts with the Iron Cavalry Battalion."

Seeing his master lower his eyes, as if thinking about something, He You continued, "The most taboo thing for His Majesty is forming cliques for personal gain. Wang Hao beat up the Zhang family... I'm afraid that means the Second Prince has offended the entire cabinet."

Under pressure, Lord Zhang asked the Wang family to take Wang Yuran back to her parents' home. But Lord Zhang didn't mean to turn a blind eye to her affair, not to mention that there was another hidden story.

The green-curtained carriage was rumbling along the official road. The north wind blew up a corner of the curtain, and the sunlight poured into the carriage through the gap, illuminating Jiang Nansheng's stern face.

He nodded slightly. The noble families were most afraid of people like Wang Hao. Not only did he do things dirty, but he also exposed his hidden relationships.

"Before the Zhang family finds Wang Hao, lead the clues to Lu Anhe... Lu Anhe is openly on the side of the second prince, and everyone knows it." Jiang Nansheng ordered in a low voice.

He You agreed and asked, "Fifth Master, what about the Wang family?"

Jiang Nansheng picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said calmly: "Wang Hao can win Lu Anhe's heart, there must be some similarities between them, so let them blame each other."

"My subordinates know."

He You jumped off the carriage, turned around, lifted the curtain, and watched Master Jiang Wu walk into the Dali Temple.

I always felt that there was a sense of depression in the Fifth Master today, which had never happened since the master got married.

It is sunny at the moment, another rare warm winter sun.

Two little masters will be born soon. Perhaps it was what happened yesterday that caused the Fifth Master to be emotionally unstable.

He You raised his head and hissed, then couldn't help but put his hand on the bruise on his forehead.

……

It was already late at night when Old Lady Wang returned to the Wang family.

The bumpy ride along the way, coupled with what happened after leaving Duke Dingguo's Mansion, meant that she couldn't sleep well that night.

She got up early in the morning and asked the servants to help her wash and change her clothes so that she could find her husband before he went to work.

Lord Wang was having breakfast in the side room at this time. Seeing his wife looking haggard, he frowned slightly and asked her how things were going.

Old Madam Wang had a gloomy face and told him what happened yesterday.

"...I asked Wang Hao to take people to beat up the Zhang family members who went to pick up Yu Ran. I wanted to bring them back and send them to hide in the manor for a while..."

She paused slightly, a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes, and her face was full of fatigue.

The eldest daughter married well and lived a smooth life these years. She was in charge of the household affairs of the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, and she thought that marrying her youngest daughter would also be a help to her.

The younger daughter now has someone to rely on and a good home for the rest of her life.

Unfortunately things did not go as planned and the Wang family lost face!

Lord Wang frowned slightly. When he heard about everything she had arranged after returning home, his face darkened and he scolded her, "Nonsense!"

Madam Wang put down the bowl in her hand and said in a somewhat unfriendly tone, "Why are you making a fuss? Yuran was born at the cost of my life!"

"As a mother, I watched my daughter fall into the fire again. I can't just do nothing!"

Lord Wang sat in his chair with a stern face and didn't need to have breakfast. He was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke:

"From now on, just pretend that there is no such child as Yu Ran. You just hope that the night will be dark. The Zhang family will not be able to find out who did this, otherwise the entire Wang family will be implicated!"

His expression became a little serious. He couldn't even do such a simple thing. One or two of them, they were more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything!

Old Madam Wang could not guess the deeper meaning behind this, she only felt a deep sense of fatigue.

At present, the Wang family’s status in Shengjing City has surpassed many aristocratic families. Yu Ran’s ending is also their retribution.

She sighed and looked at Lord Wang, who had gray hair and was wearing official uniforms. "My husband, you are already the Minister of Industry. Who sits in that position has nothing to do with our Wang family."

Lord Wang straightened his official hat, turned around and glanced at his old wife, and said in a cold voice: "Women's views, so the children you raised have no ambition to make progress!"

Madam Wang didn't dare to talk back.

Among her several legitimate sons, the highest official rank was only fourth.

The eldest daughter married into the Duke Dingguo's mansion, and the prince also got a sinecure in the Ministry of Works.

“Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by God… No matter how much wealth you have, without a life to bear it, everything is in vain.” Old Lady Wang looked at the dazzling sunlight outside and spoke in a low voice.

Lord Wang spoke slowly, word by word, in his old voice: "I am not the Duke of Dingguo, nor am I the deceased old Marquis Xuanping and the old Marquis Zhongyong, who can leave a hereditary title to my descendants."

His voice gradually turned cold. "Now, I have this opportunity and I must seize it to create a good future for the descendants of the Wang family."

……

Early in the morning, Yuanyuantang received nourishing supplements sent by each room.

Mother Xia from the third room was the first to come over, as if she had calculated the time when Master Jiang Wu would go out.

"Fifth Madam, our Madam developed a high fever after returning home yesterday. We were afraid that the disease would be passed on to you, so we asked this old servant to come and give you a gift." Mother Xia bowed respectfully and began to explain.

Not only was Li sick, but the Crown Prince's wife was also sick.

There was a quarrel in the main house of Songtao Garden yesterday, and we drove to fetch a doctor overnight. Today, we heard that the prince's wife was ill.

The things were delivered by Dai Qiao, the head maidservant beside Wang. When she came out of the Chuihua Gate together with Mother Xia, the two of them snorted and glanced at each other.

When Zhu Jie'er and Xian Jie'er followed their mother over, they happened to see this scene.

The two of them liked Gu Jinchu, the fifth aunt, and after she performed the role vividly for her, they were gently advised and reprimanded by Zhang.

Liu not only brought Zhu Jie'er, but also Han Jie'er. She talked to her about her eldest daughter's marriage:

"… Nanny Yuan has finished her lessons. I think my fifth brother's wife is an excellent embroidery expert. It would be great if she could give some pointers to Han Jie when she has time. This will help her to be looked up to by her husband's family in the future."

Gu Jinchu smiled and said, "The tiger-head hat that Sister Han made yesterday was really good. It shows that she put a lot of effort into it."

Liu really did as she said and did her best to give her daughter the best.

When hearing about Nanny Yuan, Gu Jinchu asked casually, "Did Nanny Yuan leave the house after finishing the course?"

According to custom, at the end of the year, when the nanny finishes her lessons, the host family will invite her to stay and spend New Year's Eve with them.

After all, most of the female officials who leave the palace at this age are not married or live alone.
