Family Has a Concubine

Yao Yangcheng, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, looked at Zhang Zan with gloomy eyes.

Yao Yangcheng is the father of the Crown Princess, and his son is Yao Li, the former right servant of the household department. Zhang Zan had just brought him down some time ago.

Seeing Zhang Zan speaking for Chu Yunpan now, he wanted to go to him.

Moreover, this matter...why is it related to that Ye family? Since the crown prince's accident, several incidents last year seemed to be inextricably linked to the Ye family.

For example, Miao Jihe is a cousin of the Ye family, and was forced to marry Ye Lingjiao in order to clear his name.

Later, when Ye Chengde took care of the concubine, he even got involved with the prince, and finally got his son down.

Now this matter...is related to the Ye family again, it's really...a tortuous and bizarre relationship! Going around and going around, it still feels like the same thing all the time.

Anyway, Yao Yangcheng hated Chu Yunpan, the son-in-law of the Ye family, and snorted coldly: Anyway, it's a fact that Mrs. Chu was forced to leave.

Zhang Zan frowned: Why don't you call Chu Xiuzhuan over and ask?

Ask him, and he won't admit it. Yao Yangcheng snorted softly.

Then call someone over. Emperor Zhengxuan rubbed his temples.

The little eunuch behind agreed, then turned and went out. After a while, Chu Yunpan was taken to the palace.

He was dressed in a dark green egret official robe, and he stood at the bottom in a leisurely manner, saluting towards the top: See the emperor.

Yeah. Emperor Zhengxuan frowned, Yushi impeached you for being unfilial, for ignoring your aunt and sister, and forcing your aunt away today.

Then Wang Chengcun scolded again about the indistinguishable relationship.

Chu Yunpan said: Editor Chen has seen his sister-in-law a long time ago, but the sister-in-law is unwilling, so I told others.

Sophistry. Wang Chengcun said in a voice. What evidence do you have?

No. Chu Yunpan said.

Emperor Zhengxuan rubbed his brows, thought for a while, and said, Then you will be fined for half a year and copy the Book of Filial Piety every day for three consecutive months.

Wang Chengcun, Yao Yangcheng and others were satisfied with this punishment.

After all, they all knew that it was impossible to impose heavy punishments based on this incident in the inner house. But after this happened, if he wanted to go to the study often, it would be impossible. After all, he was only punished. If the emperor asks such unfilial people to come to him as advisors, isn't that condoning unfilial things?

Among the officials, several officials secretly glanced at Liao Shoufu, who secretly nodded with a calm expression on his face.

Chu Yunpan returned to the Imperial Academy, and the entire Imperial Academy knew about his punishment. The other office rooms only felt refreshed for a while, tsk tsk, call you crazy! Be punished!

Chu Yunpan returned to his seat and sat down, Chen Zhiheng approached worriedly: Yunpan...

Nothing. Chu Yunpan spread out a piece of rice paper for himself.

Zhao Fanxu looked at Chu Yunpan being punished, his eyes were full of schadenfreude: Shouldn't Chu Xiuzhuan go to Zangshuge to get a copy of Book of Filial Piety first?

No, I can recite all these things. Chu Yunpan began to grind ink as he spoke, and then began to write Book of Filial Piety.

In the middle of writing, I saw Bi Zhangyuan walking back. This is the end of the morning court. He also looked at Chu Yunpan with gloating eyes.

A young eunuch passed by in the corridor outside, and went to the second room of the official office. After a while, the little eunuch was seen leaving with Chu Chuanlu, who was going to the study room.

Seeing that Zhao Fanxu didn't call Shidu or him, but Chuanlu, he felt a little awkward, but he wasn't called him! But thinking that Chuanlu is the grandson-in-law of Shoufu, he felt relieved.

At noon, Chu Yunpan and Chen Zhiheng left the palace and came to the carriage and horse workshop where horses and carriages were parked, where people were coming and going.

Chen Zhiheng pulled Chu Yun to the corner, and said in a low voice, It's all my fault, otherwise you won't be punished. This matter must be explained clearly.

Well, yes. Chu Yunpan nodded, But don't worry, just wait a few more days! This matter is good for us!

Really? Chen Zhiheng was startled.

Chu Yunpan said: You didn't go to the main hall today, so naturally you couldn't see how turbulent the crowd was at that time, and everyone wanted to punish me.

It's natural. Chen Zhiheng sneered, As soon as you enter the imperial court, you will be valued by the emperor. For those who have survived for many years, it is too dazzling. And it also blocks the way of some people. Said At this point, he was stunned, and smiled: Oh, I understand. Instead of letting them make other mistakes and fix them, I don't know where they will fall, why not just use this crime of unfilial piety! This crime is still a bit unclear. Gently.

Chu Yunpan nodded: It's not completely stupid yet.

What do you mean? The corners of Chen Zhiheng's mouth twitched, How should I say, I'm also Tanhua.

Sometimes, knowledge is not directly proportional to brain.

Chen Zhiheng was almost choked to death by his words, and snorted coldly: However, there is a gap in your charge, be more careful, and finally the embankment will be broken.

So it has to be blocked. Chu Yunpan said with a faint smile, Let's go.

How to block it? Chen Zhiheng was startled, and followed his footsteps.

Chu Yunpan gave him a meaningful look, and said with a smile, You will know then.

...

The news of Chu Yunpan's punishment quickly spread, and even the emperor said he was unfilial, which is really unfilial! I heard that he was suppressed and impeached by the censor and civil and military officials, I don't know how powerful it is.

When Sun and Ye Licai heard about this, they were almost dancing for joy.

The servants of the Chu family kept talking about how miserable Qin and Chu Miaoshu were crying at that time, how pitiful they were.

Aunt Fei snorted: Greedy is not enough to swallow elephants, disrespectful and unfilial, and thinks about grabbing the position of the son every day. If you don't take us seriously, look, this is retribution.

Chu Congke's eyes were full of sarcasm, hoping to continue, and eventually he was dismissed from office, which is also called fun. In the future, when he is in high school, Chu Feiyang will be squeezed out and he will be his son.

At that time, all the titles and official positions will be available.

When Chu Yun climbed down from the Yamen and came back, he rested his horse at the Chuihua Gate, and saw Uncle Chu standing there.

Uncle Chu rushed up when he saw him: Sanlang, look... things have come to this, alas!

En. Chu Yunpan nodded coldly, and handed the reins to Yuyang.

Are you just 'huh'? Uncle Chu was so angry that he almost hurt internally, You go to Zhuangzi in person and bring your mother and eldest sister back. This will save your reputation, and I will show your elder sister a better look later. Nice family.

Chu Yunpan sneered: Dad, don't worry, I don't need to pick it up. In a few days, they will come back by themselves on that day.

Hey—even if they will come back by themselves, but you pick it up, it's different, show your filial piety!

Doing this now, isn't there no money here? After finishing speaking, he strode towards the west courtyard.

Really... Uncle Chu really had no choice but to deal with Chu Yunpan.

It was obvious that Chu Yunpan had made a mistake, but he acted as if he knew the mistake but would not change it.

Uncle Chu was a little lame, and he really couldn't catch up with Chu Yunpan. Turning back to his little servant Dafu, he said: He just said a few days ago, what kind of day is that?

Why did the master forget, three days later it will be April 28th, which is my wife's birthday. Dafu said.

Uncle Chu was startled, and finally remembered: I seem to have mentioned it to me a few days ago.

Dafu nodded, Birthdays used to be a family meal together. But this year, my wife just mentioned to you, Master, that there will be a small birthday party.

Yes, she told me about it. Uncle Chu touched his forehead and said as he walked back, I forgot. But now that Sanlang and his wife have made her sad and disappointed, she still has a little birthday feast. Are you in the mood?

Anyway... the master told the grandma and asked her opinion. The wife is not at home, and the grandma is in charge inside and out. Dafu said.

Uncle Chu nodded, and asked Dafu to find Jiang Xinxue.

Jiang Xinxue asked the maid to go out of the city to deliver a letter to the Qin family.

When the Chu family was defeated, almost all of the family property was sold out and compensated to the families of the soldiers who were killed or injured. There were only two villages in the suburbs of the city, and some ancestral properties.

The Qin family lives in a village in Dayu Village on the outskirts of the city. The village is small, with only about 200 mu of land, and the production is pitifully small, so the family's income only depends on this little thing.

Qin Shi is in a particularly good mood now, sitting on Zhuangzi's porch stool, listening to Luzhi's report.

Anyway, now the whole capital knows that the third master is not filial, he doesn't distinguish between relatives and distance, and even avoids his aunt and sister out of the city in anger. Luzhi said secretly with joy.

Qin sneered: That's the effect.

My mother is amazing. Chu Miaoshu smiled and snuggled into her arms.

Of course my wife is amazing. Luzhi chuckled, It's much more enjoyable than punishing them to kneel in some ancestral hall. Not only did they scold them in Beijing, but I got the news today that the third master was impeached by the officials, and the emperor punished his father. He and copying the Book of Filial Piety are now rejected by the emperor, and in the future this official fortune... tsk tsk!

Qin Shi and Chu Miaoshu were very happy.

Ma'am, the full moon is coming. Chun Shan said suddenly.

Qin Shi and Chu Miaoshu turned their heads, and they saw a maidservant in a green dress with double ring bun coming over, it was the moon beside Jiang Xinxue.

Ma'am, grandma sent me to ask if we can still hold the birthday party in a few days? Yue Yuan said.

Naturally. Qin didn't even have to think about it, I'll be back in two days.

Then, I'll call back. After speaking, he saluted and left.

Looking at the back of Yueyuan leaving, Chu Miaoshu frowned: Why do we want to go back? Stay here for a few more days! Only in this way can people know how deeply Chu Yunpan persecuted them.

You are stupid, the common people are forgetful, if we continue to live, others will just forget our affairs. We have to go back. After going back, we even held a small birthday banquet, so that people can see how miserable they are.

Just before the full moon left Zhuangzi, Uncle Chu's servant, Dafu, came again, and said with a embarrassed expression: Madam, in a few days it will be your birthday banquet. The master said that he will give it to the wife, and the wife must go back. !

Qin said coldly: Understood.

Seeing that she agreed, Dafu breathed a sigh of relief.

...

On April 27th, Qin Shi and Chu Miaoshu came back from Zhuangzi with indifferent expressions.

When Uncle Chu walked into Yixiang Courtyard, Qin Shi and Chu Miaoshu glanced over with complaining eyes.

Seeing them, Uncle Chu felt guilty for a while, and smiled: Our family is not the same as before. We also want to hold your birthday party in a splendid manner, and invite everyone we can.

If it wasn't for the sake of the master and the family's face... I wouldn't do it! Qin's eyes were full of resentment.

Oh, I know you've been wronged, but everything is going well together. Uncle Chu sighed softly, Look, before your birthday, the family used to have a simple meal. Even if you want to have a small birthday party, others will I don’t know how to reward face. Now, Saburo has won the first prize, and the family is also up. As soon as the post about your birthday banquet is published, everyone who receives the post is willing to come. You see... It’s better to get along with each other. With Saburo, I’ve already Teach him a lesson, let him come over later to apologize to you.

Qin's eyes widened: Later?

Uncle Chu looked puzzled: Sanlang, this kid... has been busy recently. Anyway, let's talk about it after the birthday party.

Okay, then I'll give the master a face. Qin groaned softly.

Uncle Chu heaved a sigh of relief. As long as the Qin family held a small birthday banquet and was there, the rumors of disharmony and unfilial piety would be reduced. In the future, Sister Shu still has to talk about kissing, and it's thanks to Saburo! Uncle Chu sighed slightly, Anyway, if it's a small matter, let's go over it!

When mentioning Chu Miaoshu's marriage, Qin's face darkened.

After finishing speaking, Uncle Chu turned and left.

Qin looked at his back, and said bitterly: Sister Shu's marriage must be settled as soon as possible. Otherwise, he will be unlucky, and we will not be able to find a better marriage.

Thinking of this, Chu Miaoshu bit her lip hard.
