Daiyu's stepmother is not easy to be

When Wen Jiao heard Lin Hai finished his investigation results of the Jiangsu incident, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief for Mrs. Feng.

Looking up, Daiyu also smiled happily, pulled her to laugh and said: "Madam, let's invite Mrs. Feng to come to the door. Wanyan and Wanbei came to the capital with great difficulty, and they are still frightened. Let me take them to have a good time." Have fun!"

Now that the matter has been clarified, there is no scruple to communicate again at this time.Wen Jiao nodded, and Daiyu immediately ordered someone to bring a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, handed the pen to Wen Jiao herself, and rubbed the ink for her.

Seeing Daiyu like this, Wen Jiao laughed at her a few words, and then began to write a post.

Daiyu finished grinding the ink, and suddenly said: "I remember that Wanyan's sister and Mei Ting's brother have already engaged. Zhang Pan's family is already like this, will it be..."

Wen Jiao also sighed in his heart when he heard the words.

It turns out that the one who embezzled the project money in Yangzhou was none other than Jiang Tongzhi Jiang Jing who wanted to marry his daughter to Lin Hai.

This year is the year of Dabi.Last year, officials from all over the country arrived in Beijing for assessment, and they will be promoted or demoted after this year's competition, or they will remain in their original positions.

Jiang Jingnian is in his fifties, but he has been in the position of fifth-rank co-prefect for five or six years. He is in charge of people's livelihood and finance, and has never had any commendable achievements.

There is also Zhang Tongzhi who is 20 years younger than him in the Yangzhou Yamen, but has much better political achievements than him, and has a family background.

Jiang Jing knew that he couldn't compare with Zhenglu, and he was unwilling to be an official for two to thirty years, and he couldn't even wear the official uniform of the fourth-rank Skylark, so he became suspicious.

It turned out that Lin Hai, the salt censor of Liangjiang a few years ago, happened to have lost his first wife.He looked at his young daughter, who is bright and beautiful, and can read and write. She is quite talented, and if she wants to be Lin Hai's second wife, it is more than enough.

My daughter heard that Lin Hai was a second-rank senior official, rich in wealth, and very good-looking, so she was also very moved, so she agreed shyly and timidly.

In the Jinling area of ​​Suzhou, Yangzhou, there are quite a few merchants or families of small officials who have this idea.

However, Jiang Jing believed that his daughter was the daughter of a decent official family, with both talent and appearance.Therefore, he was full of confidence and felt that this matter would definitely be accomplished.

It's just that no matter how he expressly hints or finds someone to play the side drum, Lin Hai refuses to enter, and only says that he has no intention of remarrying.

Jiang Jingben also thought that his daughter is still young, and if he spends another year or two, he is not afraid that Lin Hai will not agree.How can there be a man who doesn't like fresh colors?

He still has seven or eight concubines in his own family. How can a high-ranking official like Xunyan Yushi not be good at women?

Serious!

Unexpectedly, after Lin Hai rejected him again with a smile that was not a smile, there was a decree from Jingzhong that the Holy Majesty bestowed the Queen's sister to Lin Hai as his second wife!

Hearing this letter, Jiang Jing sighed deeply, not to mention that he knew that things could not be accomplished.Just talking about the girl at home cried to death.

Miss Jiang cried loudly: "It's just a maid with no name and no surname, and she even climbed on top of me! Father, mother, I'm dead!"

Hearing that this was wrong, Jiang Jing reprimanded his daughter and ordered his wife to discipline her.

Even if she was born as a court lady and received the grace of a nobleman, she would become a madam and noble daughter without changing her body!

It's a pity that it wasn't him, Jiang Jing, who had this luck.

After turning over the years and seeing Lin Hai's methods, Jiang Jing turned from disdain to fear in his heart.

Amitabha, this man looks kind, but he acts like Yama's method!

Knowing that he could no longer cling to Lin Hai, Jiang Jing had no choice but to find another way.

He was in charge of the people's livelihood in Yangzhou, and it happened that because of the kidnapper case, he was connected to Jia Yucun, the prefect of Jinling.

It also happened that Jia Yucun was originally related to the Rongguo Mansion in the capital city, and because of this incident, it also caught up with Prince Teng, who was originally the admiral of Zhili and is now the governor of Sichuan.

Although Jia Yucun promised to introduce him, but this referral also requires money.You can't let people know that you are a capable person by talking about nothing.

Jiang Jing often does things like being greedy for petty money.His family has a large population, not to mention seven or eight concubines, even a dozen or so children spend a lot of money every month.

How could he support such a big family with his annual salary of two or three hundred, and a little filial piety at the bottom?

It just so happens that he has the power in his hands. Over the years, he has stolen a little here and touched a little here, and the sum of all places is forty to fifty thousand.

This time is a major event related to his future success.Jiang Jing was ruthless, calculated for a long time, and cleverly concealed more than 3 project money that should have been allocated to Zhang Tongzhi.

Ben has already exchanged all the silver for filial piety and sent it to Jia Yucun, asking him to pay his respects on his behalf.Unexpectedly, before Xin'er came, Governor Li began to thoroughly investigate the deficits of the state capitals over the years.

The money for the canal project alone, the accumulation of the previous few years, plus the money that Jiang Jing stole this year, is a full 5 taels.

Not to mention that there are other deficits, and the entire Jiangsu province found out several million.

Although Governor Li is upright and honest, he is not weak.Otherwise, he would not be alone when his immediate boss took the lead in selling illegal salt, and the entire Jiangsu officialdom was almost the same.Finally, he was promoted to governor.

He resolutely seized the officials involved and the problematic account books, and immediately ordered someone to report to the Holy Master and the Ministry of Punishment, requesting a joint trial by the Beijing and China Three Law Departments.

Some are old bad debts, and they also involve the time when the emperor was in power.

The people from the Sanfa Division were all summoned by the Holy Master before they left, and they were also repeatedly instructed by their own superiors, so they all knew it well.

Put all the bad debts of the past on the former Governor Ma who has been turned into ashes, and only focus on the anomalies of the four years after the enthronement of Zha Sheng.

This investigation cleared Zhang Tongzhi and Zhang Zhizhe's innocence.But although he is not corrupt, he is also responsible for the supervision and dereliction of duty.Therefore, he was demoted to one level and demoted to Gansu to be the prefect.

However, Jiang Jing's house was ransacked and he will return the embezzled money.All the female members of his family were sent back home, and he was sentenced to three thousand miles away, and went to do hard labor in the military camp.

In fact, Zhang Tongzhi was also to blame for being young and proud.He is only thirty now, and although both his parents died, he was raised by his uncle, his journey went smoothly, he married a lovely wife, and his official career went smoothly.It is inevitable that some people do not pay much attention to the insidiousness of the people.

Jiang Jing was born as an imperial businessman, and has been in charge of money and food since he became an official.Zhang Tongzhi couldn't tell if he wanted to cheat.

On the contrary, the magistrate Pan was found out to accept bribes, which opened the door for businessmen in Yangzhou to come and go.Therefore, even though it had nothing to do with the corruption case, he was dismissed as the prefect and relegated to Lingnan.

From then on, the Pan and Zhang families traveled far and wide, with one in the northwest and the other in the extreme south. Even communication took three to five months.

That's why Daiyu asked this question.Let's not talk about the fact that the two families have not heard from each other from south to north.

It is only said that part of the reason for the marriage between the Pan and Zhang families at that time was that Mrs. Feng felt that the Pan family knew everything.Although not very rich, at least it can give Wanyan a stable life.

Now Pan and Zhang are both relegated to Zhizhou.But Pan Zhizhou was demoted two levels in a row, and the place where he was demoted was Lingnan.When the emperor was in power, people who had always been extremely unsacred would be demoted here.

If Pan Zhizhou still wants to return to the Central Plains without making some political achievements, it will probably be difficult.

Besides, there are many miasmas in Lingnan, which is always easy to breed diseases.It's not that officials with poorer health died on the road when they were demoted.

Not to mention that there are many local Tu people in Lingnan, and there are Nanman people further south.If Pan Zhifu can retire safely, it will be considered a great blessing.

Although Zhang Zhizhou was demoted to one level, it can only be regarded as a small drop from Tongzhi to Zhizhou, from the second in command of the government to the first in command of the state.

Although Gansu is close to the border, there has been no war in recent years, so it can be regarded as peaceful.

If he can survive in this place, the Zhang family still has good relatives, so it is not afraid that Zhang Zhizhou will not have a good future in the future.

In this way, the marriage between Pan Meizhen and Zhang Wanyan is extremely mismatched.If Mrs. Feng didn't want to, and she divorced the engagement on the grounds that the mountains and rivers are far away, the marriage between the two families would disappear in smoke.

Thinking about Mei Ting who was already in the palace, she wondered if she would be implicated because of her father.

Thinking of this, Daiyu sighed: "Our sisters will be in different places in the future."

In the uncle's residence in Qingyuan, Mrs. Feng took Mrs. Wei's hand, crying and laughing: "I just said that our master did not embezzle money! He is innocent!"

General Feng nodded and said: "After you go there, you have to tell your brother-in-law that you will learn a lot from a pitfall, and you will be more careful from now on."

It was fine if he didn't say anything, but when he said it, Mrs. Feng thought of Jiang Jinglai.This stinky old man kept his husband in prison for several months without making a sound!

But my brother was right.If the husband had discovered something was wrong early, maybe he would have been promoted at this time.

So she didn't refute her brother, but nodded and sighed: "Yes, I will go to Zhang's mansion again some day, and ask Uncle Zhang to write him a letter, hoping that he will hear it from his heart."

When Mrs. Feng returned to her courtyard and saw Wanyan, she first rejoiced that the Pan family didn't know how to count, so they annulled the marriage.

Then I was worried again, Wanyan, a silly child, after hearing this letter, does she have to think about reconnecting with that kid from the Pan family, or must she run for election?

But it is a great joy for her husband to come back with all his beard and tail.Mrs. Feng pulled the three children together, and after talking about it, she said with a smile: "When the year is over and the road is easy, let's go find your father."

Yong Lun said longingly: "Mr. said that every place has a scene, and the northwest is very different. I don't know what the scenery is like there."

Wanbei smiled until her eyes narrowed, and said, "I know! Sister Lu Qing and Aunt Ge are from the northwest. They say the sky there is very blue and the clouds are very high. It's much dry than Jiangnan. It's cold in winter."

For a moment, Wanyan thought of how relaxed she was last year with Daiyu, Luqing, Meiting and their two sisters, a total of five people, talking and laughing in class together.

He married Pan's elder brother who smiled gently and softly.At that time, I secretly thought about what it would be like when the two got married in another five or six years.

But now everything has changed.

That night, Mrs. Feng left Wanyan behind and told her about the Pan family without hiding anything.

After she finished talking about the current situation of the Pan family, she wanted to ask Wanyan what she thought.But seeing Wanyan lowering her head as if thinking, she didn't speak, just waiting for Wanyan to finish thinking.

Only half a quarter of an hour later, Wanyan raised her head, her eyes glistened, and said with a smile: "Mother, don't worry about me. It was the Pan family who were ruthless and ungrateful first. If I post it again, wouldn't it be a shame?" Daddy and mother are ashamed, have they brought down our family's face?"

She got up and knelt down in front of Mrs. Feng, and begged, "Mother, I still want to run for the election. It's not for anything else, just to let me take care of him for a few years and forget about him. When I leave the palace, everything will be arranged by my parents." , I have nothing else to say."
