Rebirth of marriage

The fat scholar and a few people in the crowd wanted to slip away when they saw that it was really Shao Yifan who was being escorted by the Dali Temple ministers.

They were stopped one by one by the guards of Prince Xiao's Mansion.

Shao Yifan walked up to Gu Xiao and saluted, "Student Shao Yifan has met the prince, thank you for saving my son's life."

Gu Xiao motioned for him to get up.

A scholar who had talked freely with Shao Yifan in the bookstore asked, "It's really your son? Your son is really not dead, so why did you admit that you committed murder?"

Shao Yifan said with a look of shame, "Three of our family were arrested and brought to the capital. They gave my son poison and arrested my wife to coerce me.

I could only feel sorry for Prince Xiao, and follow their wishes, saying that Prince Xiao forced me to do so, and I was unwilling to kill my stepson. "

"No, this is a trick that their powerful people are good at playing. They are perfunctory with us. The child must be a fake, and Shao Yifan must have been blackmailed by them."

The fat scholar was blocked in his way and could not escape. With a roll of his eyes, he pointed at Xie Jiu and said, "Say one thousand, say ten thousand. King Xiao's implementation of the decree is to pave the way for marrying a widow. What he just said is just a shirk. In fact, it is for personal gain.

Why the murderer was able to come out of Dali Temple and stand here explains everything. "

"I didn't kill anyone, my son is still alive." Shao Yifan shouted at the fat scholar, "I heard that you claimed to be Shao's friend and wanted to seek justice for Shao, so I gathered the scholars and students to ask for an explanation from His Highness Prince Xiao.

Now that I am not a murderer and have been released, if you are really my friend, shouldn't you be happy?Or maybe you are not Shao’s friend at all. After all, Shao has not been brought to the capital for a long time and has not seen you yet. "

"How is this possible? He said that he is a good friend of you and doesn't want to see scholars being bullied. That's why we believed him."

Shao Yifan shook his head, "I don't know this person. Moreover, the decree on widow remarriage is highly respected by the people in Yuyouguan. His Royal Highness, Prince Xiao, has been in Yuyouguan for five years, making the people's lives better than before. He is deeply loved by the people and is definitely not implemented. People who are tyrannical, this point can be found out if everyone has the opportunity to go to Yuyouguan."

"But there is no smoke without fire. Prince Xiao also went to the Zhenguo Palace to propose marriage. Does this mean that the two have indeed been involved for a long time?" someone questioned.

Gu Xiao walked to Xie Jiu and looked at everyone, "Yes, I am very happy with Xie Jiu, she is the only person I want to marry.

There is indeed a reason why this king implements the decree on widow remarriage. However, even if the whole world opposes it, it cannot shake my heart to marry her. She is the only one in my life.

Therefore, whether there is this decree or not is not that important to me.

Moreover, she is my fiancée. "

The fat scholar was exposed by Shao Yifan and couldn't leave. He wanted to break the jar and retort, but then he heard a strong voice, "I believe what King Xiao said."

Mrs. Lin opened the car curtain and stood on the carriage shaft, covered in dust. Behind her was Feng Wuxin, whose hands were in a half-circle shape, protecting her.

Someone among the people watching recognized her and shouted, "It's Mrs. Lin who's back."

In fact, Mrs. Lin has never had the airs of an official wife. When she was in the capital, she often went out to buy vegetables and wash clothes, and mingled with the common people.

Mrs. Lin nodded and said hello to the people who recognized her, then faced the students and said loudly, "I came back to Beijing this time because I knew that someone pretended to be a matchmaker and visited remarried women, and used money to trick them into fabricating stories about their remarried lives. Disadvantages.

I have been in Yuyouguan for five years, and I have witnessed with my own eyes that Yuyouguan has become better and better. I have also personally experienced the implementation of the decree on widow remarriage. I have been fortunate enough to arrange marriages for several couples.

As an old woman, I cannot understand the conspiracy behind those fake matchmakers, but as a woman, I am willing to take this trip for the widows in the world. "

She glanced at the carriages behind her and said to the students, "Those people in the carriages behind heard that someone was trying to block the implementation of the decree and spontaneously followed me to Beijing. So I asked them to talk to you about remarrying and reorganizing their families. How you feel afterwards."

When she spoke, the people in the carriages behind them got off one after another and walked towards Gu Xiao.

Some of them were wearing silk clothes, some were wearing coarse linen shirts, some were young men and women, and some were old women with gray hair.

The old woman was the one who first saw Shao Yifan being married by Prince Xiao, and then took the initiative to find a husband for her daughter-in-law. She first bowed to Gu Xiao, and then smiled and talked about her daughter-in-law's remarriage with everyone, "...My life is good, my daughter-in-law is a She is filial. Her current husband is also filial and would like my daughter-in-law to take the old woman and remarry.

We have been married for more than half a year, and he has treated us very well. Now my daughter-in-law is pregnant. The old woman is grateful to King Xiao for his wise decision to carry out this decree so that we can live such a good life for the rest of our lives. The old woman thinks, this is the best thing in the world. It would be great if all widows could be as lucky as old wives and daughters-in-law. "

Her face is full of wrinkles and there is a tired look on her face after running all the way, but her smile comes from the heart, so she looks particularly kind and peaceful, which is touching.

But she quickly suppressed her smile and said angrily, "The old lady and Yifan are from the same village. I never heard that they were coming to the capital. They disappeared overnight without even packing their belongings. They were kidnapped by bad guys." of."

After the old woman finished speaking, she went to Shao Yifan and his son and asked about their situation.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the familiarity is not an act.

"Let me also tell you about my situation." A simple and honest man came forward, "I killed my parents when I was a child, and I lived with a few younger siblings. After I married my younger siblings one by one, I am almost thirty. Everyone is older than me. I'm poor at home, and the older girls don't look down on me, so I don't dare to hope that I can get a wife in this life.

After the decree was implemented, a matchmaker came to me and asked me if I would like to marry the widow at the head of the village. The man in her family used to be a drunkard. He fell into a ditch and drowned when he was drunk. I can't be picky about this condition, as long as I have a good nature. , I will marry you. "

He touched his head and said, "Hey, I was lucky enough to find a treasure. This daughter-in-law of mine is not only a good person, but also a capable person. Now we and I work in a workshop and can earn a lot in a month."

This day is something I never dared to imagine before. I can wake up laughing even in my dreams. My daughter-in-law said, this is all thanks to Prince Xiao. If His Highness had not implemented this decree, my daughter-in-law would not dare to marry, and I would not dare to marry either. There are no such steamy days now.

I am a rough person and I will not beat around the bush. I will tell you the truth. We heard that someone wanted to harm the prince, so we took leave and came to the capital to testify for the prince and repay his kindness.

I also want to scold those who spread rumors and tell their motherfucking bullshit. They just don’t want us people to live a good life. "

After the man finished speaking, another young woman stood up, and then the other people who came from Yuyou Pass began to talk about their family affairs and the changes in Yuyou Pass over the years.

More and more people gathered at the gate of the city, and even the scholars who had gathered at Prince Xiao's Mansion came over. If everyone thought that these were fabricated by the people paid by Prince Xiao, then the men dressed as businessmen who appeared behind them were completely shocked. Convinced everyone.

Those people are the shopkeepers of Huizetang in various places. Huizetang is a private welfare institution established five years ago. They adopt orphans and elderly people and children living on the streets, and help students who have family difficulties. They have been involved in natural and man-made disasters. , and even donated grain and grass to the border when the national treasury was low.

In the Great Xia Dynasty, no one, old, young, women, and children, from high-ranking officials to ordinary people, knew about Huizetang. There was even a branch in the capital, but no one knew who the boss behind it was.

They all walked up to Gu Xiao, lifted their robes and knelt down, "My subordinates pay their respects to Second Master Feng."

Silence!

After saluting, several people stood up and opened the wooden boxes they were carrying. Inside were booklets containing accounts of how Huizetang had helped the people of Great Xia over the years. It couldn't be more true.

The crowd was in an uproar!

Not all the students present were from the capital, but there were some students from the capital who had also received favors from Hui Ze Tang, and there were many poor people who had never known that the benefactor they cherished was His Highness Prince Xiao.

Someone took the lead and knelt down, and everyone fell to their knees.

Prince Xiao is Erye Feng. How can a person who cares about the common people and has done good deeds without leaving his name for many years become a person who implements tyranny for his own selfish interests? The rumor was completely shattered.

Xie Baoshan was worried about his daughter and future son-in-law, so he came to the capital with Mrs. Lin. He was also surprised that King Xiao turned out to be the kind-hearted and virtuous Second Master Feng.

Thinking that such an outstanding and low-key child is actually his son-in-law, half a son, can he be regarded as a son if rounded up? !

The old father was so proud that his tears shone.

But he still had business to do. He put his hands on his face and rubbed it. He walked up to the person, first explained his identity, and then said, "My drunkard was killed by an adulterer when he was young and lived outside. Later, he was forced to marry by Cao Zhiru. The Yongning Hou Mansion has the status of being a member of the family.

How innocent is she?Why do you students, instead of condemning those who harm others, be instigated and used to embarrass a weak woman? "

Shao Yifan also said, "My wife is still being detained by the Cao family. Shao, please come with me to the Cao Mansion and ask them for an explanation."

The people from Jiuxiao Pavilion took the lead and said, "Cao Mansion distorted the facts and played tricks on us scholars. Let's ask them for an explanation."

"Yes, let's ask the Cao family for an explanation."
