130: Can This Be Learned Better than Her?

, the latest chapter is updated the fastest!

The incident of King Dongli being taken away completely made the capital fall into silence.

The ancestors of King Dongli followed the emperor and made great contributions like the Duke of Qi. When the world was conferred, the Jiang family was conferred the title of king of a different surname. This was the highest reward among military generals, and even the Duke of Qi was one step behind.

But now that King Dongli was taken away, many noble families in the capital suddenly stopped their activities and dared not show up again.

In the King of Dongli's mansion, Princess Dongli looked at her son. The mother and son sat opposite each other for a long time, and they didn't know what to say.

Jiang Moyang looked at his mother and gritted his teeth and said, "Mom, why don't you go and find out the news?"

Princess Dongli shook her head, "No need to go, I'm afraid our family's title can't be kept."

Jiang Moyang's face became darker. Why?

Their branch has never done anything that is detrimental to the court. Why do they have to be implicated by what Concubine An and her son did?

He was not convinced!

Looking at her son's expression, Princess Dongli seemed to see herself a few months ago, but after the last incident and a serious illness, she saw it clearly and understood it.

"Don't you think about it, who gave Concubine An such courage?" Princess Dongli said in a deep voice.

Jiang Moyang pursed his lips hard, and said after a long time: "Is there no other way?"

"We should now hope that the dirty money they got will not be used in places where it should not be used, so that maybe we can still keep the last dignity." Princess Dongli looked at her son, "Mother knows that you have always been a person with ideas. For so many years, mother has been fighting with the An family and has neglected you brothers and sisters. But this time, don't worry, mother will definitely protect you."

"Mother, you...what are you going to do?" Jiang Moyang had a bad premonition.

Princess Dongli smiled lightly, "Go and do your business. Mother knows what's going on. Don't go out these two days. No matter who comes to see you, don't go out. Remember?"

Jiang Moyang's face turned pale, and he nodded with a green face, "Yes, son, remember."

"Go."

Jiang Moyang walked a few steps and turned back, looking at his mother's smiling face, gritted his teeth and walked out again.

King Dongli breathed a sigh of relief. She and King Dongli had been married for so many years, and they were not really ignorant. She just had a deep love for him and always hoped that he could look at her more. She never had the heart to hurt him.

But now, thinking of the cold face of her husband when he was taken away that day, what else could she not let go of.

It should have been let go long ago!

Princess Dongli went into the inner room to dress up, change clothes, and then got on the carriage and went all the way to the palace.

Princess Dongli personally exposed her husband's violation of the imperial order, buying salt permits for her favorite concubine, intervening in salt administration, accepting bribes from court officials, etc., which was simply going to blow up the capital.

Su Xinyi was speechless for a long time after knowing this, because there was no such thing in her previous life. Princess Dongli did not expose her husband, and Shang Junyan went south to investigate the salt permit case before her death, and King Dongli had not been found out at all.

But now everything has changed. Su Xinyi did not move for a long time after getting the news.

Once the direction of many things changes, the decisions made by others will also change with the change of things.

With Princess Dongli's evidence and exposure, King Dongli's guilt was indisputable. His Majesty was furious and put King Dongli in prison to await final punishment.

The kingship of the Jiang family was taken back by His Majesty, but because Princess Dongli sacrificed her relatives for the sake of justice, the kingship was demoted to earl, and inherited by Princess Dongli's eldest son Jiang Moyang.

This development was also unexpected. Who would have thought that His Majesty would show mercy outside the law?

The mansion of the Dongli Palace was taken back by the court. It was not appropriate for the earl to live in the mansion of the prince, but there was no suitable mansion for the Jiang family for the time being, so they could only find a slightly smaller mansion that was slightly off the beaten path to reward Jiang Moyang.

Su Xinyi was a little surprised when she received the invitation from Madam Jiang. She didn't expect Madam Jiang to invite her out for tea. This invitation came unexpectedly. After thinking about it, she decided to go. After all, she owed Madam Jiang a favor for Wu Shun.

The place for tea was a remote teahouse. Madam Jiang, the former Princess of Dongli and now Madam Jiang, saw Su Xinyi coming in and smiled and said, "Miss Su Liu, please sit down."

"Madam Jiang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Your complexion is better." Su Xinyi smiled and sat down, then spoke.

The two sat opposite each other. Madam Jiang smiled when she heard this. "I asked the Sixth Miss to come here this time. First, I sincerely apologize for the Sixth Miss falling into the water, and second, I also thank the Sixth Miss for her advice."

Su Xinyi was stunned. "Madam, you are joking. How could I give you any advice?"

Madam Jiang personally poured tea and handed it to Su Xinyi, and said softly: "The Sixth Miss has helped the poor and the needy, and has done countless good deeds. Naturally, she can't remember some small things. If the young lady hadn't saved Wu Shun, if you hadn't asked me to pretend to be sick and find out about Concubine An, I wouldn't have figured it out so quickly. The Sixth Miss didn't take it to heart, but I can't forget it."

Su Xinyi was stunned and said hurriedly: "Madam, you are really serious. Madam promised to let Wu Shun go, and we are already even."

Mrs. Jiang looked at Su Xinyi with a lot of emotions in her heart. She sighed and said, "Miss Six is ​​really open-minded, which makes me feel ashamed." After saying that, she took out a palm-sized brocade box and put it on the table and pushed it over, " This is my thank you gift. It is not a very precious thing. The sixth lady should know that Wang Jue has been taken back by the court, and the palace's properties and warehouses have also been sealed. To be honest, it is really difficult for me to come up with a generous gift to thank you, but this thing It's my dowry back then, it's not very precious, just give it to Miss Six as a toy."

Su Xinyi hurriedly declined. How could he accept the gift of thanks? After this ordeal, Mrs. Jiang really became a Buddha immediately. It was scary.

Mrs. Jiang refused to take it back, put the things down, got up and left.

Su Xinyi:......

What the hell is this!

She took the brocade box back to her house, talked to her mother about the matter, and said with a headache: "My daughter really doesn't know what to do, so I can only ask my mother for some advice."

The fourth lady took the brocade box and opened it, only to see a ruby ​​the size of a pigeon egg lying on the snow-white satin inside. It was as red as blood and had a very positive color.

This gift is not light. The texture of the gemstone is warm and it looks like it is many years old.

Su Xinyi glanced over, and her headache became even more severe, "This thing is too valuable, I can't accept it."

The fourth lady thought for a while and asked: "Mrs. Jiang sincerely thanks you now. If you send the things back, I'm afraid she won't accept them again. You should keep the things first. King Dongli will go to jail. I'm afraid that the last thing will happen." The execution will not be light, and the situation of Mrs. Jiang and her son will not be much better by then. Mrs. Jiang’s good relationship with you may not be for the sake of her son. "

Su Xinyi didn't think about it. When her mother said this, she said in confusion: "I have no official position, so I can't help Jiang Mopan."

The newly minted uncle, even if he was demoted from the royal family, was much better than her boudoir daughter.

Mrs. Su Si looked at her daughter with a smile, "If you hadn't helped, how could Concubine An and her son be overthrown so easily? Mrs. Jiang probably hopes to be on good terms with you so that you don't stare at her son."

Su Xinyi:......

If that were the case, wouldn't she be even more unjust?

Seeing Xin Yi's expression, the fourth lady became happy.

This was just a joke. Xin Yi might not have thought of it at the moment, but she could understand Mrs. Jiang's true intention. It was true that she thanked Xin Yi, and it was true that she wanted to have a good relationship with the Duke of Qi.

Dongli Uncle Mansion was inherited by Jiang Mopan, and it looked glorious on the surface. However, Jiang Mopan had neither military exploits nor fame. He, as an uncle, had a very weak foundation, and His Majesty did not say that the title could be hereditary. It is very likely that it will only last one generation.

If this is the case, this title is really worthless. Mrs. Jiang can understand it for her son's sake.

The Fourth Madam slowly explained these things to Xin Yi, and Su Xinyi suddenly realized. Thinking about Madam Jiang back then, and looking at her now, she was very impressed after three days apart.

Only a mother would bend down for her son.

In this case, it's really hard to send Su Xinyi's gift back. He can only wait and see if there is any chance to repay it in the future.

The fall of the Dongli Palace was just the beginning. Li Ji was dismissed from office and imprisoned. For the sake of Taishi Li's loyalty to the country, he was exempted from the death penalty and could not escape the death penalty and was sent to the frontier. All the people involved in the case were Lu Xiangru, Jiang Baizhuo, Jiang Mopan, Wu Jingqi, Ma Rude, etc. The sentence was executed and the family property was confiscated.

In addition, there was a major reshuffle of the Liangjiang salt administration. Those involved in corruption cases were beheaded or dismissed from office. The entire southern officialdom was shaken. Under the emperor's fury, the Manchu officials were like quails, acting honestly and honestly. The atmosphere in the court was completely new.

In the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, Mrs. Jiang came to visit Jiang Baizhuo with a food box. Through the cell door, she saw that her husband's black hair had turned gray in just a few days, and her hand holding the food box tightened.

Jiang Baizhuo in the cell looked up at his wife, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and his eyes seemed to be looking at a stranger.

Mrs. Jiang stared at these eyes, her head buzzing. She thought of the love between husband and wife and came to give him a ride, but what about him?

Probably ungrateful.

Also, she has never been in his heart.

She had known it for a long time, but she never believed it or gave up. She always felt that as long as she was good to him, he would always understand her.

Mrs. Jiang placed the food box outside the cell door, suppressing all the depression and discomfort in her heart. She looked at her husband intently, "An is sentenced to exile. As his daughter, Jiang Fanghua's reputation will be damaged by her implication. The uncle's house will not If you take her in again, I will send her back to her home.”

Jiang Baizhuo's expression finally changed at this moment. He stood up suddenly and grabbed the cell door, looking at his wife angrily, "No, how dare you..."

"Why don't I dare? Jiang Baizhuo, do you think you are still the King of Dongli? After all these years, you know how you treat me, and how I treat you. You also know how An's family wanted to kill me last time. Didn't you protect her? Now it's her turn to be unlucky. It's clear that God has eyes. Her daughter has the same evil intentions as her. Why should I raise her? "

Mrs. Jiang threw out all these words and suddenly felt relieved. She took a deep breath and sneered, "Jiang Baizhuo, you have treated me like this for so many years just because I like you. But now I don't like you anymore. "What else can you rely on? You know who the An family is, so you hope that your good daughter will be treated well by the An family."

Jiang Baizhuo's face suddenly turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and said, "For the sake of our relationship as husband and wife, just think of it as me begging you to take care of your youth."

Mrs. Jiang laughed when she heard this, but tears flowed from her eyes. She stared at Jiang Baizhuo's face, "When have you ever loved Mo Yang and Ling Yu, my children, like this? All your love was given to Jiang Mozhou and Jiang Fanghua. Now, one of them has to follow you to reunite in the underground, and the other has to wait for the An family to arrange her life for the rest of her life."

How could Jiang Baizhuo trust the people of the An family? Wouldn't that group of people have to sell Fanghua for a few silver coins?

Jiang Baizhuo's face was blue and purple, "Don't you have any love for your spouse? Fanghua hasn't married yet, and you have the heart to hand her over to the An family? If it weren't for you reporting me, how could I be here today."

"Listen to what you said. Since I came, you haven't asked about Mo Yang and Ling Yu. They are also your children. How can you have them in your heart?" Mrs. Jiang took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, her face straightened, and stared at Jiang Baizhuo, "I will help you see how the An family arranges Jiang Fanghua. Don't worry, I will let Mo Yang tell you during the Qingming and Zhongyuan Festivals. Besides, why am I reporting you? Don't you know in your heart? You and I are husband and wife, and sending you off for the last time is my last thought."

Mrs. Jiang threw down these words and turned away. She had nothing to say to him.

This man was thinking about his and An's children when he was dying, so she shouldn't have come here with delusions in her mind.

When a man is about to die, his words are good. She thought he would miss her and the children to some extent.

An in the next cell heard that Madam Jiang was coming, and she clamored to see her, shouting like crazy. But Madam Jiang did not go to see her, and walked out of the prison with her back straight.

When An heard that Madam Jiang was gone, she cried and laughed in the cell, cursing non-stop, as if crazy.

On the day of the execution, it is said that many people went to watch, but Su Xinyi was not interested. Once the salt-invoice case was closed, Su Yi was promoted from a small captain, that is, a small flag, to a general flag and then to a centurion. Shang Junyan's promotion was somewhat surprising. He was transferred from the Censorate to the Ministry of Justice as a doctor, and his sixth rank was promoted to the fifth rank.

The Ministry of Justice, the Censorate, and the Dali Temple are called the Three Law Departments. It was a bit unexpected to go to the Ministry of Justice, but it didn't seem to be very surprising after thinking about it carefully.

Others couldn't guess what His Majesty was thinking, and Su Xinyi didn't want to guess it. Anyway, it didn't matter to her what official Shang Junyan was promoted to. She was happy that her elder brother became a centurion.

If he became a centurion, he would be a well-known official in the court, which was a great thing.

Although they didn't make it public, the family still sat together to celebrate. Su Yi was still a little dazed and felt that it was not real at all.

He was the prince of the Duke of Qi's mansion. In fact, the position of the prince was much more glorious than that of a centurion, but the title of the prince was just for show. It inherited the glory of the family, but the centurion had real power, which he had earned by himself. The two were completely different.

Su Xinyi didn't expect that her elder brother would be promoted directly to a centurion, thinking that he could get a general flag, but it was not surprising to think about it. After all, from the arrest of Wu Shun to the conclusion of the salt permit case, her elder brother had been working hard.

If he entered the Duke of Qi's mansion, the Duke of Qi only had a nominal position that looked good, but he had no real job. Although Su Erye was a centurion, he was in charge of sacrifices, not a military position, but under the jurisdiction of the Taichang Temple.

Only Master Su San is the commander of the palace guards, and he is one of the upper direct troops. Now there is another centurion in the family, and he is affiliated with the imperial guards. As long as Su Yi does not slack off, his future will always be able to move forward step by step.

The old man was happy and drank a glass of wine. Seeing his children and grandchildren with a look of satisfaction, his last gaze fell on Su Xinyi.

Su Yi can have what he has today, but Xinyi pushed him behind his back. Of course, Su Yi himself is willing to endure hardships and make progress. Brothers and sisters support each other, and this family will always be more prosperous.

It's a pity that the eldest lady and others went south to Huaining and were not at home, otherwise the family would be more lively.

Su Jingmo and Su Xixian were not what Su Xinyi did behind her back. She was just happy for her eldest brother. Su Chaoyan has always been taciturn, and today it is rare for her to say a few more words. Everyone is very happy, and Su Xinyi is also happy.

After the banquet, the old lady asked Su Xinyi to help her back to her room. When they entered the inner room, the old lady looked at Su Xinyi and said, "You have contributed to this good thing in the family. Your elder brother will not forget you. Brothers love each other and support each other. You will know that this kind of strength is the strongest in the future."

Su Xinyi knew that even if the eldest lady hated her in her previous life, she would protect her when facing outsiders. Even if everyone was fighting for the family property, after the old lady divided the family property, no one else made a fuss.

She knew some things vaguely in her heart and understood a little, but she went in the wrong direction at the beginning, so she couldn't get together with the big family, and many things happened later, and there were disagreements in the Duke of Qi's Mansion.

Thinking of the things in the previous life, and looking at the present, Su Xinyi found that she was really happy now.

That kind of happiness should be the excitement and expectation of blood connection.

"I know, grandma, I will remember it." Su Xinyi said with a smile.

The old lady patted her hands, "You should go and rest too."

Su Xinyi smiled and agreed, and walked out of the old lady's main courtyard. The banquet had already ended, and everyone supported each other to walk out. Su Xinyi saw her mother at a glance, and she hurried over to support her.

Mrs. Su Si turned her head and saw that it was Xinyi, so she asked, "Is your grandmother resting?"

"I sent my grandmother to the inner room, and my grandmother asked me to go back and rest, and I came out."

Mrs. Su Si nodded and said with a smile, "If your father were here, he would be very happy too."

"Yeah." Su Xinyi nodded. She believed that she would.

The successive fall of the Duke of Qin's Mansion and the Prince of Dongli's Mansion, coupled with the shock of the salt permit case, the capital has really been much quieter these days.

Su Xinyi was forced by Su Jingmo to learn embroidery. She felt that her sixth sister must have never learned this in the countryside. She would not be the worst student if she learned with her.

What was the result?

She stared at the fish playing with lotus gradually taking shape in Su Xinyi's hand, and then looked at the embroidery frame in her hand. How could this be possible?

Can this be better than her?

"Sixth sister, aren't your hands used for swords, spears, swords and sticks?" Su Jingmo said with gritted teeth.

Su Xixian and Su Chaoyan were about to burst out laughing. Look at the vivid fish embroidery of Xinyi, and then look at the fish embroidered by Su Jingmo. Not to mention the soft appearance, just her color matching makes people laugh.

Su Xinyi also smiled. She originally didn't know how to do these delicate jobs, but a long time will always make you learn things you don't want to learn, and you can learn it little by little to make it exquisite and beautiful.

Su Xinyi didn't respond to this and immediately changed the subject, "Fourth sister, I'm more curious about what the future third brother-in-law looks like. Third sister, have you seen him?"

Su Chaoyan's marriage has been discussed, but it has not been finalized yet, so the family has not made it public, and even the few of them don't know which young master they are talking about.

When the topic came to Su Chaoyan, she blushed immediately because she was always shy, but still shook her head and said in a light voice: "I haven't seen it, but mother said to let the second sister go to see it for me. When she thinks it's about time, let me go to see it."

The second wife loves Su Chaoyan, her daughter. Although she is a concubine, she can let the pregnant eldest daughter look for her younger sister in marriage, which shows that she values ​​her.

Su Xixian rolled her eyes and said softly, "I think our family is from the military, so we might find a military officer's family for our third sister."

Especially now that my eldest brother has been promoted to a hundred households with his own ability, and my father is working in the army, others will no longer easily say that the Duke of Qi's Mansion is in decline.

In this case, it is probably more likely that my third sister will marry a military household.

Su Chaoyan smiled and said, "I will listen to my family, as long as my family likes the match. And my mother went to Huaining, so I have to wait for her to come back."

Her temperament is so soft. Su Xinyi looked up at her third sister. In her last life, her third sister married a scholar and lived a good life. She was soft-hearted and refused to come back to tell her even if she was a little aggrieved.

But in this life, she did not fall into the water to bring shame to her family, and did not let her sisters be implicated by her. I think the marriage will naturally be better.

Su Xinyi lowered her eyes, which was good.

The weather was getting hotter day by day. The eldest lady and others had not returned from Huaining yet, but the letter from Huaining was delivered first. Su Xinyi heard from her mother that the marriage was done.

Su Xinyi didn't feel surprised. For a smart man like Jie Jinglue, it was easy to get what he wanted as long as he was sincere.

Especially since the eldest sister was in a bad situation now, Shi Zhongqian was staring at her like a hungry wolf. Marrying an ordinary man really couldn't control him.

Because of this, the family was happy for a few days. Two days later, there was news that the Tartars knocked on the border.

The court was surprised. Every year when the autumn harvest came, the Tartars would come to forage for grass and grain. Why was it so early this year?

The Tartars suddenly attacked, and the border guards sent an urgent report. The court was in dispute over sending troops. Su Xinyi was a little uneasy sitting at home.

She had always wanted to join the army, but there was no chance. Now the opportunity came, and she couldn't miss it.

But she didn't know how to speak, especially because her female body would add a lot of trouble.

However, she couldn't agree to miss this opportunity.

I have to find a way to make my family relax.
