Raiders of the demon concubine who crossed

In the early years, Prince Cheng's Mansion was still very famous in the imperial city. With the owner of Prince Cheng's Mansion, Mu Ziyue, being deposed and banned, and his favorite concubine Zhou being beheaded for public display, the magnificent Prince Cheng's Mansion fell into the dust, and the huge mansion Now there is only an empty shell left, and the plaque is gone. Usually there are only two or three kittens, and no one can easily remember them.

The servants have almost dispersed. Except for a few loyal servants, Mu Ziyue still barely maintains the majesty of the head of the family, and the family property is basically confiscated. The son drags the family, and everyone who can be driven out. Among the concubines and concubines, only the two with the best color remained, and the rest were sold off. Mu Ziyue was left with only three sons, Mu Chenghong, Mu Chengluo, and Mu Chengpei, the former of which was his legitimate son. The latter two were his concubine sons whom he loved for the sake of concubine Zhou. Mu Ziyue let these three sons find ways to earn money to support the family, while he continued to maintain the majesty of the head of the family.

Mu Chenghong was related to the Gu family. At the beginning, the Hui'an Hou Mansion looked at Mu Chenghong's face, so they could help Mu Chenghong a little bit, and life was not particularly difficult. Later, seeing that the Hui'an Hou Mansion couldn't do it anymore, the Gu family's direct branch They were all in prison, and it was heard that Gu Yan colluded with Yelang to rebel, Mu Ziyue even kicked out his son-in-law in order to clear up his relationship with the Gu family.

Mu Chenghong stood outside the mansion on the street and scolded Mu Ziyue for having no conscience. Mu Ziyue only asked his servants to drive him away. He had always let Mu Chenghong be the heir to the Gu family's face. Now that the Gu family has been defeated, he sees I don't know what else Mu Chenghong has to offer. This family is quite small, and he doesn't know how to make money. He can save a lot of money by tearing up his face, and he no longer has to worry about offending others.

In this way, the burden of making money fell on the shoulders of Mu Chengluo and Mu Chengpei.

Mu Chengluo is the third son of Mu Ziyue, born of the Zhou family.Back then, in order to seek the position of Prince Cheng's son, the Zhou family had put in a lot of effort, begging Mu Ziyue to find a famous teacher for Mu Chengluo, so that his son could be both civil and military, and King Bocheng would be pleased.In fact, Mu Ziyue also valued this son very much. Before he was imprisoned, he had sought a fifth-rank official position for him in the Ministry of Officials. Later, when the corruption case broke out, the emperor only punished King Cheng, but the Minister of the Ministry of Officials He was very good at observing words and expressions, and found a random excuse, and Mu Chengluo's official position was gone.Mu Chengpei wanted to go to the officials to make trouble, but Mu Chengluo dragged his younger brother back to the mansion. The emperor obviously didn't want to see their family anymore. His father gave it out of face, but now that his father is failing, it is normal for others not to give him face.

However, Mu Chengluo still held his breath in his heart and wanted to be an official. He was so rational because he felt that he didn't need the help of the officials, and could win a place in the court by his own ability.Everything is low-grade, except for high-level studies. He plans to win the first prize in the imperial examination, and the officials will not dare to underestimate him.

Mu Chengluo usually studies hard and is very confident in himself. The more Muzi knew that this son was a little talented, after careful consideration, he used the little money left to donate to him a student supervisor through Mu Chengluo's mentor. will try.This year's scientific examination was coming soon. Mu Chengluo entered the examination room with full confidence, but was finally carried out. The scientific examination consisted of three consecutive examinations, a total of nine days. Mu Chengluo did not even survive four days. There was a serious illness in room No.

Mu Chengluo only said that it would be unfavorable to fight again next time. Mu Ziyue learned from the doctor that this son will be raised intensively in the future, and he will not be able to bear the slightest fatigue. He sat outside the house for a long time and then left without asking Mu Cheng again. Luo said.

Mu Chengluo was bedridden, and the burden of supporting Prince Cheng's mansion fell on Mu Ziyue's most beloved youngest son, Mu Chengpei.

Before, Mu Ziyue and Mu Chengpei opened a shop just like Tie Snacks, and wanted to catch Prince Rui's handle. This shop only had the title deed under Mu Chengpei's name, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice confiscated the title deed, but it didn't make things difficult for the shop owner. Well, the shop owner paid the rent for five years at one go, and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs did not want to disturb the people, so he asked the shop owner to continue renting until the expiration of the term.

The shopkeeper's surname was Fang, who was kept in the dark by Prince Cheng's mansion. He usually hid it very deeply, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice failed to find out any real evidence.In this way, even though the title deed is lost, the store is still there, and it is considered the main income of Prince Cheng's Mansion.

Mu Chengpei suspected that there was a shopkeeper who was caught in the middle, and he wanted to distribute extra money to others. He is not rich now, and he can save a little bit, so he quickly sold the shop forcibly at a very low price, and put it under his own name. Down.Because this store has been selling snacks similar to iron snacks, and there is no limit, many people came to the store without knowing the truth, and the business was quite good. Mu Chengpei made money easily without any thought, but after a while At this time, the officers of the Ministry of Punishment came to the door.

It turned out that Da Chu had passed the ownership law, and the eating practices of Rutie snack bar had been recorded, and it was no longer allowed for Mu Chengpei, who had tasted other people's dim sum, to make it himself and sell it.

"What your store has done is plagiarism. It needs to stop business immediately and compensate Rutie Snacks. If you want to sell it in the future, you need to get permission from Rutie Snacks. If you commit the crime again, you will be severely punished according to the law!"

The guards put a seal on the store door, and fined Mu Chengpei a sum of money. Mu Chengpei couldn't swallow this, so it doesn't matter if the dim sum is an imitation, as long as someone buys it, why can't they sell it?

Mu Chengpei hated Yan Rutie and didn't want to deal with this person, and he heard that the person who filed the record was called "Hua Yingxiong". Mu Chengpei excused that he hadn't heard of it, and spent a few days secretly observing, following the trend of Rutie's snack shop It's not just his family, Mu Chengpei wondered if Yan Rutie deliberately tripped him up because he had Prince Rui's backing behind him.

In the end, he found out that all the shops had been fined, and it wasn't for him alone. Mu Chengpei was slightly relieved.Some of the shopkeepers who had been fined changed their careers. Instead, he thought hard that the shops that followed suit were very profitable. If they were all closed, wouldn't it be better to just leave him alone?With a golden job in his arms, he wouldn't be so stupid as to do other things.

Mu Chengpei's snack bar quietly opened again within a few days.In order to confuse the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he tried his best to cover it up and changed the name of the dim sum. As long as the name is different, it will be different. How can it be considered plagiarism if it is different?

The snack bar business has been booming for a few days, and the people from the criminal department came again.This time, Mu Chengpei was specially put in jail. It turned out that although the dim sum sold by Mr. Mu Qi had changed its name, the ingredients were still exactly the same. This time it was not his first offense.

The official in charge of the trial said: "The filing of Rutie snacks includes recipes, so what if you changed your name? There are diners from the snack bars on both sides to prove it. I have also called special personnel to check it. You are still in the seller's house." The dim sum here violates the law of Da Chu!"

Mu Chengpei was wronged repeatedly: "It's just selling some snacks, it's not murder and arson!"

The official said solemnly: "Now that there is an attribution law, prescriptions and recipes can be counted as family property. If you steal other people's property and make money from it, how is it different from blood-sucking mosquitoes? Don't be ashamed, commit crimes knowingly!"

In the past, Mu Ziyue tried to convict Prince Rui with a snack, but now the retribution is not good, and it is Mu Chengpei who is sent to prison because of the snack.Some people questioned, just a few mouthfuls of food, as to whether it is so strict, the Ministry of punishment said, the law is like this, don't do it because of the smallness of the evil.

Mu Chengpei was imprisoned for more than a month. After he came out, all the money he earned before was confiscated by the Criminal Ministry, and he still owed a huge debt. The Criminal Ministry punished him much more severely than last time. Everyone has to be punished with black ink, that is, tattooing. Mu Chengpei escaped the word "cheat" under the operation of King Cheng. This time, no one helped him, and he came out of prison. The word "pirate" was added.

Fraud is cheating, and plagiarism is the same as stealing.

Young Master Mu Qi was walking on the road, and people were staring at him and whispering.

"I didn't expect that the person who looks like a dog is actually a thief!"

"Hehe, this is not an ordinary thief. Other thieves only steal money and goods. This young man is amazing. I heard that he can even steal recipes that people have worked hard to come up with. He changed his name and sold it himself. It's really shameless to earn money with blood and sweat."

"Let's stay away from this kind of person. To be honest, I used to eat in his shop without knowing the truth, but I won't go there again. The dim sum I like is actually made by him imitating others. Since it is against the law , wouldn’t I be helping the evil by buying it again? In the future, I should visit the Lord more often, maybe when the Lord is happy, there will be new snacks, and I will eat some of them!”

Mu Chengpei felt ashamed, covered his face and fled home.

Mu Chengluo sat up from the sick bed in shock: "Chengpei, what's wrong with you?"

Mu Chengpei said irritably, "It's nothing, it's none of your business!"

Mu Chengluo also saw the tattoo on the corner of Mu Chengpei's mouth, and he couldn't say a word: "You should be an honest person, anyway, you are also a royal family, how can you steal..."

Mu Chengluo thought, his younger brother was a thief, even if he became an official, he would be ridiculed.

"Brother, even you don't understand me!"

Mu Chengpei's eyes were red. Didn't he suffer so much for this family?

Although he is not from the Zhou family, and the brotherhood with Mu Chengluo in the past is not fake, Mu Chengpei still regards Mu Chengluo as his own brother, but now, he feels that Mu Chengluo may not have the same heart with him .

The son Muzi valued more and more is useless, and the snack bar is gone. Mu Chengpei bears the word "stealing" on his face. No matter what he does for a living, others don't trust him, and he has no money to pay. Mu Chengluo The heart of the imperial examination has not yet died, and the tossing and tossing is the goods to pay for money. The more Muzi felt that he would not be able to eat any more, he took his sons out and picked them up again.

After all, there are not no promising sons. Mu Chengze, the sixth son of Mu Ziyue, is doing well in the Ministry of War now, and he can also be ranked in front of the emperor, but this son has never heard of Mu Ziyue since he was a child. In other words, the reason why Prince Cheng's mansion was in trouble was because this unfilial son colluded with Prince Rui to play tricks behind his back, the more Mu Zi refused to recognize this son, even if he starved to death, he would not lower his face to ask Mu Chengze for help.

Mu Ziyue thought of another son, Mu Chenghuan.Mu Chengze was protected by Prince Rui and Marquis Yongchang, and the ransacking of his home did not affect him, but Mu Chenghuan escaped a catastrophe because he was expelled from the mansion ahead of time.The more Mu Zi thought that although this son was out of tune, he was always hanging out with Princess Rui, so he was somewhat in awe of his father, and when Mu Chenghuan heard that he was also an official in the Ministry of Industry, the more Mu Zi thought about it Go, decided to let Mu Chenghuan take care of him, and send him money every month.

Mu Ziyue ordered Mu Chengpei to give Mu Chenghuan a message, Ru Tiezheng was pulling Prince Rui to stay at Mu Chenghuan's village, he wanted to make a faucet, he had to find a place to test it first, Mu Chenghuan Volunteering to provide his own Zhuangzi, although the place where he lives is small, it is not easy to go wrong, and it meets Rutie's requirements.If the faucet was really made, it would be a great achievement. If Tie had the heart to help Mu Chenghuan to a higher level, he even specially invited King La Rui to come over to help.

Mu Chenghuan is now married to Cao Yuan, the village has fishponds and land, as well as a monthly salary, although not as rich as the big family, the small life is still peaceful and beautiful.Mrs. Zheng is now officially the head wife. She used to wear commoner clothes when she was in distress. When the days are better, she has changed back to silk. Mu Chenghuan and Cao Yuan are very filial, and Mrs. Zheng is waiting for her son and daughter-in-law to be hugged by her as soon as possible. What about the little grandson?

Mu Chenghuan's family didn't have much time to serve people. When Mu Chengpei came, Xuan Ming's gang opened the door. When Mu Chengpei saw Xuan Ming's face, his legs went limp on the spot.

"You, you, aren't you the guard of Prince Rui's residence?"

Xuan Ming said: "Yes, what's the matter?"

Mu Chengpei ran away, but Xuan Ming grabbed him by the collar with one hand, and brought him up in front of Mu Chenghuan, Prince Rui and Princess Rui.

"Your Highness, Wangfei, Mr. Mu, there are suspicious people at the door."

Mu Chenghuan recognized the person without any effort, and said, "Seventh Brother, what are you doing here?"

Ever since Mu Chenghuan was driven to Zhuangzi, Mu Chengpei had never been here, why did he suddenly come to the door?

Seeing that Mu Chenghuan and Ru Tie were staring at the tattoo on his face curiously, Mu Chengpei was so ashamed and indignant that he covered his face with his hands, and told Mu Ziyue roughly what he meant.

Ru Tie: "..."

Throwing his son out and leaving him alone, but finally asking him to take care of him, is there such a shameless father in the world?

Mrs. Zheng said excitedly: "What exactly is he trying to do? At the beginning, I begged him hard and he refused to listen, and decided to drive our mother and son out of the mansion, but now seeing that Cheng Huan is promising, he wants to drag Cheng Huan down...Why should he? !"

Why?

Mu Ziyue naturally considered that he was Mu Chenghuan's father, and Mu Chengze didn't dare to provoke him, so Mu Chenghuan could still handle him.

Mu Chengpei also said: "Mu Chenghuan, you can't leave dad alone."

Mu Chenghuan is an honest man, and when it comes to this point, he can't ignore Muzi any more. The more Muzi is kind to him in raising him, the more he cares about it. The more Muzi let him raise him, he will have to suffer.

It's just that Mu Chenghuan also has his own difficulties. Since he wants to support Mu Ziyue, he has to bring Mu Ziyue to his side. He can't afford money alone, and he has to support his family. It's okay to take dad over and take care of each other.

Mu Chengpei didn't like it when he heard it. Mu Ziyue got Mu Chenghuan's money, so he could get some credit, but if Mu Chenghuan took Mu Ziyue to Zhuangzi, he couldn't just beg for nothing, right? Mu Chenghuan had already separated from them.

Like Ru Tie and Prince Rui, Mu Chengpei didn't dare to say more, so he went back and told Mu Ziyue the truth, and Mu Ziyue gritted his teeth and agreed, because he was imprisoned, and if he wanted to change places to live, he had to go through the imperial court, Ru Tie took the opportunity In front of the emperor, he gained a lot of goodwill for Mu Chenghuan. The emperor had some impressions of Mu Chenghuan, who often followed Princess Rui to make a fool of himself. For example, if Tie Yiwu talked about the Chengcheng Palace, the emperor felt that Mu Chenghuan was a dutiful son. However, Mu Ziyue was disgusting.The more Mu Zi wanted to change places, he was right and he was careful about this matter.

Mu Ziyue was not used to living in Zhuangzi the night before.He always felt that Mu Chenghuan's food had a strange smell and was not delicious.Moreover, he has to do everything here by himself, the only servants are all farming, Zheng doesn't want to see him, Cao Yuan is his daughter-in-law, it is impossible to take care of her everywhere, Mu Chenghuan often goes to the Ministry of Industry and is not at home, Mu Zi Being more of a royal family, I felt that I was almost like a countryman after staying for a few days.

Without a beautiful maid, he wanted to enter Zheng's house and asked Zheng to serve him, but was slapped by the always docile Zheng.After a few days of rough tea and light meals, Mu Ziguo was very uncomfortable. Later, he still planned to go back to Prince Cheng's mansion and insisted on asking Mu Chenghuan to give him money and to raise other sons. Cheng Huan inherited a sonless family in the clan. Recently, Prince Rui hinted that this family is asking the emperor to help find an heir, and there is a title on it. Not only did Mu Chenghuan get rid of the burden of Prince Cheng's residence, but The big pie that fell from the sky hit it.

As for the couple in Prince Cheng's Mansion, the emperor thought to himself, he should continue to be confined, and if he dared to jump around, they would all be thrown into prison. Anyway, the prison is full of food.

Ru Tie saw Mu Chengpei had the word "robber" tattooed on his face, and then he remembered what happened. The Ministry of Criminal Justice sent all the money Mu Chengpei compensated to Prince Rui's Mansion. Ru Tie felt that he deserved it , determined to donate these compensations and the money he personally earned from the snack bar in the past few years to the national treasury.

For the princess who loves money, this is really a big deal.Mu Chengyuan understood what he was thinking, and donated his share in the name of the shareholder "Xuan Ming", supporting him like iron.

Ru Tie is sincerely grateful for Xuan Ming's help all the time, and specially finds a day to thank Xuan Ming, but Zhen Xuan Ming doesn't know what to ask and can't figure it out.

Ru Tie suddenly realized that all the money from "Xuan Ming" and the land deeds lent to Ru Tie had been handed over by Xuan Liang himself. There was no need for Xuan Liang to pretend to be his elder brother. Who else could borrow the name of "Xuan Ming"?

...How could Your Highness do this?

Ru Tie was moved by Prince Rui's kindness, but also felt a little awkward that all the money he earned went into Prince Rui's pocket through his hard work in opening the shop.

what can we do about it?

Ru Tie's eyes lit up, and he deliberately said: "Brother Xuanming is so kind, he gave me so much money and didn't charge rent...Your Highness, should I invite him to eat grilled fish?"

Mu Chengyuan: "...No!"
