The emperor is embarrassed

Chapter 73

Lin Yongshang clutched the newspaper in his hand, his eyes were about to burst.

Simply, daredevil!

There is no doubt that the Qian family belonged to Huaiyang Wang family.

Although Qian Yongdao has no official position, his status in the academic circles of the imperial capital, even Lin Yongshang, as the governor, must give him three points of comity.

That's not the most important thing.

Qian Yongdao's official career was mediocre. Of course, he was the number one scholar at the age of 17 during the reign of Emperor Dezong. After three years in the Imperial Academy, he resigned from office and returned home with his wife. Since then, he has devoted himself to studying and has never been an official.

With the Qian family's first-class background and Qian Yongdao's profound knowledge, the most famous Wanli Academy in the south of the Yangtze River was established by Qian Yongdao. Even now, Qian Yongdao still goes to Wanli Academy to give lectures from time to time.

Wanli Academy is the painstaking effort of Qian Yongdao all his life.

It is also one of the most famous academies in the south of the Yangtze River. If there is any academy that can compete with Wanli Academy, it is only Wansong Academy in Hangzhou City.

The two academies sounded like government schools, but Wansong Academy was actually established by the Hangzhou government.

Wanli Academy borrowed more money from the family.

The Qian family has accumulated accumulation for a hundred years, and they will not be short of money.

For Wanli Academy, Qian Yongdao was really rich and powerful, and even many talented and famous teachers of Wanli Academy were personally invited by Qian Yongdao to give lectures.

The close relationship between Wanli Academy and the Qian family made Lin Yongshang faintly worried.

This publication that published the "Case of Young Master Yongding's Rape of a Chaste Wife to Death" was a newspaper from Wanli Academy!

Xu Yingyu took over the Wanli Academy's newspapers from Lin Yongshang and read them hastily, feeling very disdainful in her heart, and said with a glance, "It's just making a fuss about women's chastity, and these scholars are no more than that."

Lin Yongshang directly told Fan Wei, "Fan Wei, go to Qian's house and see, is Mr. Qian still in good health? If Mr. Qian is in good health, I will visit his old man today."

Fan Wei took the order and went.

Xu Yingyu said, "There is only one imperial newspaper in the entire Celestial Dynasty. These things can be printed just by printing them?"

"Now is not the time to arrest people." Lin Yongshang pursed his lips, with a cold look in his eyes, and said, "Wanli Academy has a close relationship with the Qian family. If such things are spread out, the scholars themselves will have a lot of resentment towards the Yamen. If they directly send If you go to the officers and soldiers, it is easy to change. It is better to go back to the source and strangle it from the source!"

Politicians are not firecrackers, if it explodes at one point, Lin Yongshang has died countless times.

This is a matter of the governor's yamen, and has nothing to do with her, Xu Yingyu said, "Lord Lin, please rest, I'll go and see Sister Qian." She raised her foot and wanted to leave.

"Master Xu." Lin Yongshang called Xu Yingyu, and said politely, "I know that Master Xu must go to the Xu family to pay his respects to his grandparents. I wonder if Master Xu can do me a favor?"

"Master Lin, please speak."

"If someone asks Mr. Xu about Qian's affairs, Mr. Xu can just say that Mrs. Qian has awakened and recuperated, and the case will be settled."

"understood."

Lin Yongshang ordered people to prepare cars and sedan chairs. He took the governor of Huaiyang, the prefect of Yangzhou, and the officers and soldiers of the Yamen to Wanli Academy.

Lin Yongshang met a group of angry students, and also met an unexpected character-Qian Yongdao.

Qian Yongdao is now very old, except for visiting the academy, he usually doesn't see anyone else.

Lin Yongshang became the governor of Huaiyang, and this was the second time he met Qian Yongdao.

For a 78-year-old man, it is absolutely inappropriate to describe him as handsome.However, Qian Yongdao can still see some traces of handsomeness in his youth, with silver hair and frosty hair, and a three-inch long beard, standing at the highest point of the speech in the auditorium outside the academy, with the mountain wind blowing, and his clothes fluttering, the other His posture and appearance are not enough to describe his immortal demeanor.

Qian Yongdao was anxiously talking to the students, "Although I am fortunate enough to have taught in the academy for a few days and have written a few articles that can be read, but I have also taught you that you should not be stubborn when you encounter problems. , and don’t copy what others say.”

"Things are not as you imagined. The old man was ill yesterday. Hearing that you went to the governor's office to mess around, I felt very uneasy. I saw this posted on the street again today..." Qian Yongdao raised the newspaper in his hand and sighed sadly. He said, "There must always be evidence for right and wrong. You don't know the inside story, but you just write and print these things after hearing a few gossips from others. How can you still be like the gentle and jade-like students in the school. Like this Nonsense, how is it different from those peddlers in teahouses and restaurants!"

Qian Yongdao sighed, "It's the old man who didn't teach you well."

Lin Yongshang and his party have officials and soldiers, which are very eye-catching.What Qian Yongdao was saying was sad, but he didn't pay attention, but some students saw it, chatted with each other, and looked at Lin Yongshang and others. Qian Yongdao just noticed Lin Yongshang and his group.

"Master Lin?" Qian Yongdao looked slightly startled, and hurriedly stepped off the stage to greet the students, pleading for the students, "They are still young and not sensible, Lord Lin forgive them this time, shall we?"

Lin Yongshang was noncommittal, and directly took Qian Yongdao to the podium, and said loudly, "I have read what you wrote!"

"There are so many inconsistencies in it!"

Lin Yongshang didn't have a good impression of these students who knew how to cause trouble without spilling their blood, they were all full of food.Raising his hand to press the newspapers of Wanli Academy on the table of the podium, Lin Yongshang said coldly, "Now that Mr. Qian is here, let's clarify the facts!"

"There are two things that are inconsistent with the truth. First, the festival wife Duan is not dead! Moreover, under the diagnosis and treatment of Imperial Physician Zhang, Duan has woken up today!"

"Secondly, this newspaper blindly claims that Mr. He raped the Duan family! The case has not yet been tried, so I don't know where you came to this conclusion! What proof do you have!" Lin Yongshang said coldly, "As we all know, the Qian family is a well-known family. , now there are genealogy records that there have been 25 generations in three dynasties, such a scholarly family. The Duan family lived in the inner house of the Qian family, chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddha, spinning and weaving, and never took a step forward! Mr. He has only been in Huaiyang for two months For a long time, let alone the Duan family, he didn't even know which way to open the door of the Qian family! The inner house of the Qian family is so fortified, how many servants and slaves are guarding it, how did the second son of the Qian family enter the inner house of the Qian family!"

"If Mr. He forced his way in, none of the servants in the Qian family were injured!"

"If it is said that Mr. He bribed the servants, I think that the inner house is no better than other places. There must not be one or two doorkeepers. Could it be that Mr. He bribed them all?"

Qian Yongdao's face was shocked, "Could it be that Mr. Lin suspects that the old man's family style is not cautious... No, no, this is absolutely impossible. My granddaughter-in-law comes from the Duan family in the imperial capital, a well-known scholarly family. The chastity of a granddaughter-in-law is required even by the Supreme Emperor." Praise...my grandson is unlucky, but my grandson-in-law is definitely born as a first-class good girl!"

"Mr. Qian, I don't have this intention, I just speculate." Lin Yongshang said, "Of course, it is also possible that the second son He Wugong Gao Qiang entered Qian's mansion without anyone knowing it? However, I also You know, among all the world-class giants, which one doesn't have a servant in the nursing home?"

"These are all doubts. Now that the doubts are not clear, you have printed these deceptive things! I want to ask, what is your intention! What is your intention!"

Lin Yongshang said coldly, "Young people, don't be afraid of passion! But the point is, you can't be used or driven by others! You are scholars, if you have evidence, just go to the governor's office to present the evidence, if you have doubts, just talk to the official Come together!"

"However, what I'm talking about is the truth! It's not some kind of thug who is outraged by the crowd!" Lin Yongshang raised the newspaper in his hand, "Do you know why there is only one royal newspaper in the world? It has been reviewed! Therefore, the royal newspaper can be published and distributed nationwide!"

"You guys, you write nonsense without reason and evidence, confuse the people, and confuse right and wrong! Who allowed you to print it! Who asked you to print it!"

"Fairness lies in the evidence. It's not just anyone who grabs a sword and writes a few sentences about an unsolved case can judge right from wrong!" Lin Yongshang angrily shot a few cases, "You really insulted the Duan family, insulted Mr. Qian, and even more insulted you by writing this Scholar and shirt!"

"Don't you want to know what's going on?" Lin Yongshang's eyes swept across the silent scholars below like lightning, and he scolded coldly, "When the official opens the trial of this case, you all come to listen! Use your eyes to see for yourself. Look, listen with your ears, whether this official is fair or not!"

Lin Yongshang was born as a censor, and his eloquence is absolutely unmatched by these scholars. With this swearing, these students who scolded him bowed their heads and did not dare to speak.

Qian Yongdao hurriedly helped his students speak well, "Master Lin, let's see it for their youth and ignorance."

"When you are young and ignorant, read more books of sages and sages, and stop talking nonsense nonsense!" Lin Yongshang always suppressed Qian Yongdao's anger, and said softly, "Mr. Qian, don't worry, I won't do it this time Will arrest people. However, I have to give your granddaughter-in-law justice, whoever wrote and printed this thing, you go to the Yamen to surrender yourself. When you introduce it, you have to personally apologize to Mrs. Duan!"

Qian Yongdao said softly, "Lord Lin, forget it, my granddaughter-in-law is not such a person."

"Isn't that the rules and etiquette?" Lin Yongshang glanced at the students of Wanli Academy, and said bluntly, "You are young and ignorant, so you don't have to be responsible if you do something wrong? Today I rely on three-point wit and mean women to be chaste. I still don’t know what will happen? If you rely on your youth and ignorance and don’t care about them, how can the country’s laws exist!”

With Lin Yongshang's loud words, even Qian Yongdao couldn't help but plead for mercy.

Lin Yongshang changed his color and asked in a warm voice, "Mr. Qian, I heard that you are not feeling well. Let the subordinates of this official handle the matter here. Go home and rest first, don't get angry. After you."

"Thank you, Mr. Lin."

Humans always eat soft things but not hard things.

Qian Yongdao persuaded him on the stage for a long time, don't worry about it, study hard.

No one listened, all the tall and angry envoys of justice.

Now that Lin Yongshang is cursing, no one dares to speak out.

Lin Yongshang sent his own sedan chair to take Qian Yongdao back to his home, and he and the governor Liang Dongchu shared the ride.

Liang Dongchu persuaded Lin Yongshang, "Don't be angry, my lord. These sour talents, relying on their talents, can't get along with their writing. If you get angry with them, you will be flattering them."

"I'm really pissed off." Lin Yongshang sighed, "The students of the Guozijian are not as arrogant as this."

Liang Dongchu smiled, "Fortunately, they have been suppressed now, and no major disputes have arisen. You don't have to worry too much. The reform of the salt class will be halfway through. As long as the reform of the salt class is completed, you will be a great achievement."

"What merits are not meritorious, don't seek meritorious deeds, but seek no faults." Lin Yongshang closed his eyes wearily.

Huaiyang is flying like dogs and dogs, Ming Zhan is watching Ruan Hongfei's dowry list for Ruan Jiarui with Ruan Hongfei's hand.

Ming Zhan said sourly, "Being a pirate means being rich, why haven't you given me a token of love?"

"Fat, I'm already by your side, what else do you want, tell me? I'll give you whatever you can afford." Ruan Hongfei smiled and added a few more things, touched Ming Zhan's peachy face, water Ruan Hongfei touched it again, "Jiarui is married, and I have fulfilled my promise to my sister."

"Don't be too generous, otherwise the ministers should be suspicious."

"Do you think they don't doubt it now?" Ruan Hongfei said, "Too much can't be done, too little can't be suppressed. After all, Zhao Qingyi is the second place."

"Oh, don't worry, Ruan Jiarui is someone who knows how to live."

"You will read all this?"

"That's right, my vision has never been bad." Ming Zhan gave an example, "You see Feng Shaoming was chosen by me for Mingyan, and look at the marriage father and king pointed out to Mingfei, right? Mingya's marriage is not very good Sample."

Ming Zhan put his head on Ruan Hongfei's shoulder and asked, "Do you want to see Ruan Jiarui?"

"No need."

Many of Ruan Hongfei's actions made Ming Zhan not very understanding. If Ming Zhan did something good, he would like to spread it to the whole world.But Ruan Hongfei is very indifferent to his relatives.

Even if Ruan Hongyu was demoted two ranks to attack the noble, Ruan Hongfei didn't say a word.

For Ruan Jiarui, Ruan Hongfei took a lot of care behind his back, but he didn't want to meet and recognize Ruan Jiarui.

Ming Zhan felt unspeakably sad, put his arm around Ruan Hongfei's shoulder and said, "I'm good to you."

Ruan Hongfei smiled.

The Ruan family was truly defeated.

Ming Zhan did not give Marquis Beiwei a posthumous title. Ruan Haofeng's life has been full of ups and downs, with constant twists and turns.He endured the unbearable insult, and the revenge he deserved was also avenged.

In the end, nothing more.

After Ruan Haofeng's funeral was over, the Ruan family dismissed most of the servants, only Ruan Hongyu and Ruan Hongyan remained as serious masters, and the female family members were Mrs. Beiweihou and Ruan Hongyu's wife Tian.

Funeral rituals are not easy in this day and age.

The Ruan family was exhausted, except Tian.

The Tian family was born as a side branch of the Marquis of Shouning. She married Ruan Hongyu before, but she was not very happy.

Ruan Hongyu didn't seem like a person with any great prospects, but he was working as a errand in the Ministry of Industry, with a monthly salary of more than ten taels.Compared with his brother-in-law Ruan Hongyan, it is definitely a world of difference.

Although Ruan Hongyu is already the eldest son in the family, his biological mother has passed away, and his relationship with Bei Weihou is extremely bad.Many times, Tian was worried that the title would fall to his uncle.

Now, things have turned around, even though they have been downgraded by two ranks, the title still belongs to their husband and wife.

Tian's joy was born in her heart. Seeing that her family was tired, she quietly went out to make refreshments.

Ruan Hongyu has already become the noble, the attitude of the servants at home towards Tian is naturally respectful and polite.

Ruan Hongyu spoke first, "Father's important business has been done, everyone should express condolences. I have something I want to discuss with my mother's third brother." For Marquis Beiwei, Ruan Hongyu couldn't think of mourning at all.But looking at the expressions of stepmother and younger brother, he had no choice but to persuade her.

"Brother, please tell me." Ruan Hongyan listened intently.

"We all know about His Majesty's gift of marriage to Jiarui before." Ruan Hongyu sighed, "Jiarui grew up at home since he was a child. He called me uncle for more than ten years and mother for more than ten years. Regarding the matter, Jiarui has nothing to do with our family in terms of name. However, blood relationship, breaking bones and connecting tendons."

"At the beginning, when she was old, the family had already prepared a dowry for her." Ruan Hongyu said tiredly, "I mean, send Jiarui's dowry as an addition to the princess's mansion. She wants Married, it's always good to have more private houses by your side in the future."

Although Ruan Hongyan has always been sad about his father's death, he is a sensible person. No matter what the reason is, he also agrees with Ruan Hongyu's words, and echoes, "Brother is very right. Between blood relatives, it is not easy to just say goodbye." broken.

Mrs. Bei Weihou also has no objection.

Mrs. Tian took the maid to bring some refreshments, and she just listened attentively, and hurriedly said, "My lord, with all due respect, there is no money left at home for throwing money for father's funeral. Besides, which one is better to come to our bereaved family?" ? Don’t you have to spoil the big girl’s happy event?”

Ruan Hongyu said lightly, "This family hasn't been handed over to you yet, so it's not your turn to worry about it. I have food and drink, can't I keep your mouth shut?"

Mrs. Bei Weihou sighed, "Hongyu, your wife is just asking a question, you can just tell her. Besides, the family affairs will be left to you and your wife sooner or later."

"Since your father passed away." Mrs. Bei Weihou's eyes were slightly red, and she sighed, "Since your father passed away, my energy has not improved every day. I will order the maids to bring the key to the tent in a while. You have become a prince, and you and your wife have to pick each other up in this mansion."

Although Tian's face was embarrassed after being scolded by her husband, but when she heard that her step-mother-in-law was going to hand over the family business, she suddenly became interested, and her whole face lit up slightly, emitting a gleam.Without waiting for her husband to speak, Tian knelt down and gave Mrs. Beiweihou a nod. "Mother, don't worry, my daughter-in-law will definitely learn from you. If there is something she doesn't understand, she will definitely ask her mother for advice."

Ruan Hongyu turned his face away and snorted angrily.

Mrs. Bei Weihou smiled wryly and supported Tian with both hands. The wife she specially picked for Ruan Hongyu was a well-known idiot.However, now she was just trying to test it out, but in the end she fell on the idiot.

is not it?

This is also retribution.
