Lucky husband

Seeing that the maid next to the Crown Princess was obviously unwilling to help, Jiang Fulang burst into despair, and shouted bitterly: "The Liu family was raking in money back then, but they didn't find a lot of money when they ransacked the house. Where did the money go? Why didn't the cousin of the crown prince think about where the money came from when he collected the money?"

As soon as these words came out, the surroundings instantly became quiet. Those who dared to come and watch Jiang Fulang block the Crown Princess were those who liked to watch the excitement and were not afraid of trouble. Everyone excitedly watched Jiang Fulang and the maid of the Crown Princess confront each other. Let's see if there are other earth-shattering words coming out of his mouth.

Jiang Fulang saw the face of the maid of the concubine concubine's nanny change greatly, and he felt a bad breath in his heart. The Liu family did a lot of bad things, but they did some things not for themselves, but for the prince, to make money for the prince, for the sake of the prince. The prince builds contacts and eliminates dissidents for the prince.

Now that something happened to the Liu family, the crown prince wanted to stay out of it, Jiang Fulang felt unwilling and didn't want to just accept his fate like this!

As a person who was pampered and grew up, he has always been self-centered, Jiang Fulang would not think about why the Liu family did that. He only knew that the Liu family was ruined, and his future good life was gone. Go crazy and make it hard for others.

As for his husband, what will happen to the innocent Mr. Jiang, Jiang Fulang doesn't have much affection for him, and he doesn't want to care so much. He just wants to drag everyone into hell together.

The princess in the carriage heard Jiang Fulang's nonsense outside, and hated her teeth. If there were not so many onlookers around, she would definitely get off the carriage and slap this bitch twice, and let him bite at random!

The prince had told her before that only Jiang Fulang was left in the direct line of the Liu family, so that she would have a chance to take care of him. Fu Lang was bullied by others.

take care of?Take care of the fart, the princess just wants to strangle Jiang Fulang outside, is he out of his mind, what good will it do him to say this?

But in full view, she couldn't do that, and she couldn't continue to sit in the carriage.

The Crown Princess came out with the help of another maid, and stared at Jiang Fulang coldly: "Presumptuous! Who ordered you to say these words that slander His Highness the Crown Prince!"

The princess's eyes were too cold, Jiang Fulang shivered when he saw it. He had only seen the gentle and kind side of the princess when he was Liu Fulang before, but he had never seen her look at him with such eyes.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Fulang thought of the way he saw the princess deal with the bed-climbing maid before. He heard that the maid was given sterilizing drugs, her ears, nose and tongue were cut off, and she was doing the dirtiest and most tiring job in the backyard. In less than a year, he was exhausted to death.

The crown prince was not affected by the downfall of the Liu family, and the princess was still the high-ranking concubine. After the downfall of the Liu family, Jiang Fulang had no backer and was just a small seven-rank Hanlin Fulang. To punish him, there are some methods to make him disappear in the capital, and people can't find out the problem.

Their husband and wife had a bad relationship, and Jiang Fulang felt that his husband might be happy that he had disappeared, and he would never report to the officials to find out the reason.

The look in the eyes of the princess brought Jiang Fulang back to his senses, and pulled him back from the brink of madness. He knelt on the ground and admitted his mistake: "My lady, what I said just now was just out of my mind..."

However, the words had already been spoken, and the crowd of onlookers had listened. No matter how much Jiang Fulang admitted his mistake, he couldn't make everyone forget that sentence.

What's more, the Liu family is the crown prince's mother family, so there is a natural connection. It was something that many people guessed in their hearts but didn't say it, but Jiang Fulang said it.

The Crown Princess paid attention to the expressions of the people around her, wishing she could tear Jiang Fulang apart, but at this moment, she could only ask her maid to help Jiang Fulang up, and said solemnly, "Jiang Fulang, the Liu family belongs to you. Maternal family, you are worried about the Liu family, I can understand, but the state-owned and legal family has family rules, since the Liu family has committed a crime, they should be punished, it is useless for you to talk more."

After finishing speaking, the maid pulled Jiang Fulang, who had lost his soul, to the side, and waited for the princess to get into the carriage before letting go of Jiang Fulang and following the carriage.

Without Jiang Fulang standing in front of the Crown Princess, the onlookers would not dare to stop Tian's daughter-in-law's carriage casually, and immediately moved out of the way to make a way for the carriage to pass.

Li Mingjin and Bai Zhiwen looked at each other, and took this opportunity to quickly stay away from the place of right and wrong.

After approaching just now, Bai Zhiwen found that although some of the people in the middle were dressed like ordinary people, their demeanor, behavior, words, and actions did not look like ordinary people. It's like the common people gathered together.

After careful observation, Bai Zhiwen believed that Jiang Fulang's blocking of the Crown Princess was fueled by someone behind the scenes, maybe it was done by an adult prince who wanted to compete for the heir apparent. As for which prince or princes it was, I don't know.

The capital city is indeed a pool of muddy water. At this time when the undercurrent is surging, students with no background like Bai Zhiwen and the others can apply to be officials in other places when the results of the palace examination come out.

If they stayed in the capital, once the other princes discovered that they had been in contact with the sixth prince, even if they did nothing, they would be labeled as the sixth prince's lineage, and even the teacher's family would be implicated.

"Let's go back." Li Mingjin's mood was a bit complicated, he didn't even have the mood to continue shopping.

Seeing Li Mingjin like this, Bai Zhiwen suggested going to the bookstore to buy some scripts to pass the time.

Li Mingjin didn't object, and the two went to the bookstore to buy some new and fashionable vernacular books in the capital, and went back with the little things they bought earlier.

The next day, all kinds of gossip about the prince and the Liu family began to spread in the streets and alleys of the capital.

For decades, the Liu family has relied on Liu Guojiu's power to amass wealth, and the amount found is as high as tens of millions of taels of silver. However, when the Liu family ransacked the house, the total value of the family property was only a few million taels. Where did the difference go? Just say they squandered it themselves.

Leaving aside whether anyone believed this excuse before, with what Jiang Fulang said when he stopped the carriage of the princess, the whereabouts of the huge sum of money was explained—it was given to the prince.

The crown prince is the heir apparent of a country, and he is usually known for being humble, courteous, industrious, thrifty, loyal, filial, benevolent, and righteous. Why would he take tens of millions of taels of silver?What did he do with tens of millions of taels of silver?

Bribe officials?

Networking?

All kinds of speculations have been derived, but if it is just to bribe officials and win connections, how can so much money be used?

A guess that will cost a lot of money is about to come out, but no one dares to say this guess casually-recruiting troops.

If this conjecture is true, it would be terrible, and everyone who heard about it tacitly stopped discussing it.

These gossips circulated in the capital for a day or two and soon disappeared. No one dared to mention it again. The results of the palace examination were made public at this time, and all the students who participated in the palace examination gathered outside the palace again, waiting for the results to be announced.

There are three people in the first class, the number one scholar and Tan Hua are the children of the aristocratic family in the capital, and they are well-known among the many students in the capital, and everyone is convinced by them.

The second place is an old Juren from other places. He is [-] this year. When he learned that he has become the second in the first class, he cried so much that he finally stabilized his emotions.

There are 40 candidates in the Erjia. The first is Chuanlu, a burly, loud voice candidate who doesn't look like a literati.

Bai Zhiwen ranked ninth in the second class, followed closely by Li Mingde, tenth in the second class, and Wan Rongtong was a little further behind, ranking nineteenth in the second class.

The rankings of the three of them have risen compared to the examination, but both Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde's hearts sank, because the ranking increase is not a good thing for them.

You know, the second and third grades will conduct a selection test next time, and the selected ones will stay and serve as Shujishi in the Imperial Academy. This is the only way for students who have no connections but want to stay in the capital. Promotion path.

It is relatively easier for the students who ranked higher in the palace examination to be selected than the general examination. Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde glanced at each other quietly, and they both understood the meaning in each other's eyes: for the selection examination, their articles should be well-written, which makes people feel better. Make no mistakes but don't stand out, to lower their chances of being picked.

But they have a common worry, that is the sixth prince.

When the Sixth Prince hid his identity and communicated with many students in the teahouse, they could only be regarded as acquaintances, but they saved the Sixth Prince that day, maybe the Sixth Prince would take special care of them because of this, and privately told people to put the two of them together. It would be bad if people stayed.

They were still in the palace at this time, so they could only suppress the worries in their hearts. Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde waited for Yijia to come back from the street with smiles on their faces, and attended the Qionglin Banquet anxiously.

At the Qionglin Banquet, several adult princes openly and secretly expressed their solicitation to the newly promoted Jinshi from other places, but only the sixth prince sat still, unable to see his intentions.

The sixth prince is like this, so that Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde can't figure out his thoughts. Is he not interested in recruiting new Jinshi, or he has already selected people to recruit, such as them, so he sits firmly Diaoyutai.

A Qionglin Banquet with staggered toasts and hidden turmoil was over. When Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde returned home, they felt that the Qionglin Banquet was no easier than the exam.

The next day, Zhang Anhao sent someone to send a letter, in which he told the two disciples that they had better not show their sharpness in the selection exam.

What Zhang Anhao meant was also the thinking of Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde, students who have no power and power like them should not fight for the merits of the dragon.

It is said in "University" that self-cultivation, family harmony, governance of the country, and peace of the world, it is true that scholars have the ideal of governing the country and the country, the premise is that the family is in order.

Only when they have a family can they be together. They have family members, teachers and friends behind them, so don't take risks casually.
