reborn wife

Chapter 34

It was getting late, and the sun was setting in the west.

The maids behind Princess Shu Ning brought two trays covered with red cloth, since the emperor wanted to choose the leader in today's competition, she, as the host, had to come up with some decent rewards.

As expected, among the many daughters, the emperor finally chose Wen Yuan, the second daughter of the Wen family.

Wen Zhiru clearly saw that Wen Yu was gritting his teeth at that time, and tightly squeezed the handkerchief in his hand.

The selection of the emperor's concubine can always be delayed for a while, but not for a lifetime. With the power of the Wen family today, no matter what, it has to be a part of it. If Wen Yuan is smart, she can't directly express her desire to become the emperor's concubine today. It's just a little reserved, asking the emperor to reward a calligraphy or other personal belongings, this is considered to be in the eyes of the emperor.

When choosing a concubine in the future, no matter what her background is, if there is such a connection, the emperor will always take care of her first, so there will be no hope for Wen Pei.

But when the emperor really asked Wen Yuan's wish, all the young masters and ladies present were shocked.

Wen Yuan's wish is simple to say but seems really out of place.

She said that her only wish is to be able to decide her own marriage in the future, and she wants to marry a man she likes, regardless of her family background.

The emperor's face was a little ugly at this time.

Just now when she danced the sword, I praised her a lot, and now I have appointed her as the first name, no woman in this world would want to be by the king's side, and be envied by the world.But she unexpectedly...

No joke, he can't refute her request face to face at this time, but if he agrees to marriage matters, parents' orders and matchmaker's words, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of Mr. Shoufu.

He and Wen Yanfeng have been at odds for many years, is he going to use this incident to add fuel to the fire?

"The people in Wen Ge's old mansion are really different, and I have seen it today." The emperor waved his hand and asked the maid behind him to send the reward, "Since I promised earlier, I will not go back on my promise, and I will give it to you." An imperial decree is given to you, and the man you fancy in the future will be as if I personally gave you a marriage, and no one should object."

"My daughter thanked the Holy Majesty."

It's the turn of those young masters from aristocratic families. In fact, in terms of the excitement of today's competition, the most surprising thing is Wen Zhiru's arrow skills. However, thinking of Wen Yuan's previous outrageous behavior, the emperor finally gave No.1 to King Xian The second son, Jin Yixuan, after all, his sister and niece are quite fond of this young man.

At this moment, I will do an errand first, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the marriage is due!

So Jin Er Shao relaxed, and got the master book of Zhan Shifu from the seventh rank.

Although it is not an official position with real power, it is just a formality. After a few years of experience, it is easy to get promoted with contacts from all sides.

Everyone was tired after a day of fuss.

After the emperor left, Wen Zhiru hurriedly thanked Jin Yihui and Xia Houchen, and rushed back to Wen's mansion.

*************************************

In the following days, Wen Zhiru thought he could live a more peaceful life. After all, the Mid-Autumn Festival is less than a month away, and everyone should be busy preparing, so there is no time to worry about such a moth.

The case of Cao Yerong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, is almost handled.

The emperor originally thought of such a thing. Even if the charges could not be carried out in the end, in order to avoid suspicion, Cao Yerong could not sit down in this position, so he had to transfer to another department. Sun Xijin was transferred to replace this position.

But Mr. Shoufu seems to have seen through his mind long ago, and he doesn't play cards according to common sense at all.

He threw Cao Yerong's case to the Dali Temple and let people handle it impartially. It took him less than ten days to find out Sun Xijin's crimes of embezzlement, perverting the law, and accepting bribes without permission. .

When the case was submitted, Dali Temple immediately sentenced him to exile.

Now the little emperor was dumbfounded, no matter how the case of Cao Yerong was finally investigated, the Minister of the Ministry of War could not fall into the hands of the emperor, and he didn't know who he was making a wedding dress for all this busy work.

The emperor was so angry that he did not go to court for two days.When I was a prince, I couldn't beat Wen Yanfeng, and I was always checked and balanced by him. Now that he is the king of a country, why can't he still be able to handle this old fox?

Speaking of Brother Qian, the collusion between Qian Linmo and Marquis Wu An.

I don't know if Qian's retelling of Wen Zhiru's words really played such a big role. This time, Qian Linmo is determined to win the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

Before Wen Yanfeng and Qian Shi mentioned that Qian Linmo was going to marry Wu Anhou's youngest daughter, Qian Shi also thought that it was just Qian Linmo flattering the rumors spread by others of Wu Anhou. Zi Ke is a dignified daughter-in-law, it is always inappropriate to marry someone as a concubine, if it is an ordinary wife, Mrs. Qian will definitely not agree.

But who would have thought that half a month later, the Qian Mansion suddenly reported that Qian Linmo's original spouse disrespected her parents-in-law, made a big quarrel at home and forbade her husband to take concubines, and even said that she had an affair with the mansion manager.

Mrs. Qian could bear this grievance. At that time, she was about to hang herself with a rope, but fortunately she was rescued in time.

But this could not restore the husband's sympathy and years of love between husband and wife, so Madam Qian was sent back to her natal family with a divorce letter.

When Mrs. Qian, Mrs. Li, and Qian Linmo got married, Qian Linmo was still a low-ranking official. Naturally, she couldn't marry any noble daughter from a noble family. I can only swallow my breath.

No one knew about Li's later life and death, but everyone in the capital who heard about this incident all lamented Qian Linmo's fickleness and influence, of course, that is all for later.

Now that Qian Linmo has divorced his regular wife, he immediately married the Seventh Girl of the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, and was promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of Industry of the third rank in a blink of an eye.

At this moment, Wen Zhiru couldn't figure out which chess game Prince Rui and his father were playing.

Even if Mr. Shoufu doesn't want to see Qian Linmo anymore, the two families are also serious in-laws. Marquis Wu'an has no reason to get involved with Qian Linmo, and even his own daughter, unless he has other plans in himself.

It is also impossible for Wen Yanfeng not to know who the person behind Marquis Wu'an is, from the words he reminded Qian Shi to let her go back and persuade Qian Linmo that day, but it happened that Qian Linmo was going to get married with Marquis Wu'an and be promoted to the Ministry of Industry When he was the servant, Wen Yanfeng didn't move at all.Apart from the excuse of not going to Qian Linmo's wedding banquet to congratulate Qian Linmo in person under the pretext of being busy with business, there was no shortage of etiquette. He also asked Qian to bring his two daughters back to her mother's house for a few days to help manage the wedding.

This is not like Mr. Shoufu's behavior!

You know, in the previous life, Mr. Chief Assistant cut off all the possibilities of Qian Linmo's promotion with one hand.

*************************************

Just after September, the weather is getting cooler.

After a few bursts of autumn rain, all the courtyards began to prepare winter clothes.

In the early winter of this year, there were two major events in Beijing that deserved Wen Zhiru's attention.

The first thing is that the second young master Jin Yixuan finally proposed marriage to Princess Chao'an.

Although Jin Yixuan is not a direct son, he is impeccable regardless of his appearance and talent. The most important thing is that the princess has long preferred him, and Princess Shu Ning is also very satisfied.

Seeing that this marriage is about to be settled.

The second thing happened in Shanxi.

I heard that some officers and soldiers in Shanxi flirted with a good woman in the street, causing others to die of embarrassment and anger. The woman's parents and siblings were beaten to death.

Although it is a disregard for human life, but the farmer's family has no power and power, and the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so it is easy to suppress it.

Unfortunately, the peasant girl who was molested was engaged to a marriage before, and her fiancé won the Juren last year and is going to Beijing to take the exam this year. Although he lost his name in the end, the young man is still young and talented. He made a lot of friends in the capital and went to the exam together The children of the family of the Imperial Academy were appreciated by a Xuezheng of the Imperial College, so they stayed in the capital and decided to work hard for three years before taking the exam again.

Now that something happened to the fiancée at home, the local officials even wanted to hide it from the world. The scholar was filled with righteous indignation, so he directly sued Shuntian Mansion with a pleading.

Originally, it was easy to deal with this matter. The officers and soldiers who caused the accident were directly arrested, and then the dog officer was dealt with. However, Shuntian Fu Yin sent people to the local area to investigate, and only then did he realize that the matter was not so simple.

The officers and soldiers who caused the accident seemed to be private soldiers.

In the Dajin Dynasty, recruiting private soldiers was also a crime of conspiracy.

No wonder the county magistrate wanted to kill people directly, and the people behind it were not simple.

Shuntian Fu Yin did not dare to act rashly, so he submitted a secret report to the emperor.

The little emperor also knew that something was wrong, and planned to send a trustworthy candidate as an imperial envoy to go to Shanxi in person to find out the truth.

Wen Zhiru remembered that such a thing had happened in his previous life.

The last imperial envoy seemed to go to the upstart Jin Er Shao who was favored by the upstart.He will soon be the son-in-law of the eldest princess's mansion, and the future county matriarch. The eldest princess is thinking about her daughter's future, so naturally she wants to find a good future for her son-in-law.

Wen Zhiru didn't quite remember how the imperial envoy Jin Yixuan investigated the case in the end. The charge of recruiting private soldiers seemed to be pinned on some little-known county king in the end.

The king of the county was copied and beheaded by all the families, and Jin Yixuan won the emperor's award, and he was promoted step by step.

In this life, he didn't want this pair of dogs to live so comfortably.

Originally, he wanted to wait for Jin Yixuan to get married before adding trouble to them, but now he might have to do it earlier.
