White Hedge Dream

Chapter 35 Calm down

In his early years, he also received an errand from the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

But when Empress Chiang came to power, the atmosphere in the court became more and more terrifying, so he resigned and went into hiding, thinking of making a comeback in the future.

But he didn't expect that after the new emperor ascended the throne, there would be so many people making a comeback that he couldn't squeeze in.

Because he was hiding from Empress Chiang and the princes at that time, for fear of being implicated, even the prince Changyang King did not recognize him.

When he went to see the emperor, the emperor didn't even remember who he was.

He bit the bullet and spent money to bribe the emperor's ministers. He went several times, and at least the emperor recognized him.

But he was never given an official position.

And there was no response to the request sent to the eldest son to be crowned prince.

Could it be that his generation of earls has come to an end?

I’m really exhausted mentally and physically, and it’s really annoying to be disturbed even when I’m drinking wine and sleeping.

Ding'anbo glared at Mrs. Ding'anbo angrily: "Stop staring at me all the time. Go and take care of your good sons. They all look bad. Tell Lu Wenjie not to go out these days and bump into the general, princess, and Wang family." I can’t save him if he’s caught in a lawsuit.”

That’s not what it’s like to be a father! How can you blame her? Mrs. Ding Amber was annoyed.

"Uncle, if you go back to sleep, let alone Wenjie, even the maidservant in our family will not be able to survive." She shouted, and started to cry, "My poor third wife, you are dead and your husband is back." Others, even the remaining maids, were driven away.”

Hearing about the third wife, Ding Anbo was sad and angry. This dead girl was really short-lived. She was raised so big and just got married. She died before she could help her mother's family.

Such a good son-in-law was stunned.

"What happened to Dongyang Hou Mansion?" he asked through gritted teeth.

Mrs. Ding'anbo said with hatred: "That Xu Xian really thinks of herself as the rightful lady and wants to wipe away all the traces left by my daughter!"

Ding Anbo stood up and said angrily: "She dares!"

After saying that, he stepped forward, but he forgot to put on his shoes, and also forgot that he had just dropped a teacup on the ground. When he stepped on it, Ding Anbo let out a cry of pain, and he fell over. The study room suddenly became a mess.

…

…

"Uncle, calm down."

"How can I calm down? Will I get angry again when Dongyang Houfu comes to break off my relationship?"

Upon hearing this, Ding'anbo, who had just bandaged his injured foot, stood up angrily again.

"I'm going to sue him before His Majesty!"

As soon as he took a step, the person staggered by the pain of the wound.

Mrs. Ding'anbo hurriedly supported her and scolded Lu Jin: "Don't always look over there and call me "adopted mother". Are you really a relative?"

Lu Jin hurriedly said: "It's not that way, Mrs. Hou is still protecting Xue Liu. It's because of the disagreement between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, not with our family. My uncle's questioning at this time has made the wife alienate from us."

Uncle Ding'an glared angrily: "This kind of daughter-in-law, who is a mother-in-law and still doesn't kick her out, means she doesn't have the same heart as us."

"Mr. Zhuang is extremely eloquent. I heard that he made fun of Mrs. Xue in the Xue family." Lu Jin said, "What's more, the prince hasn't come back yet. How can the madam drive people out? Doesn't it make the prince a joke? ? Mrs. Hou must also be very angry. It will be difficult for a mute to eat Coptis chinensis. Therefore, my uncle and aunt cannot question Mrs. Hou at this time and want to help her vent her anger. "

Mrs. Ding'anbo frowned and asked, "How can I help her vent her anger? I'm going to scold Mr. Zhuang?"

Lu Jinxiao said: "Auntie, there is no need to condescend to see her. The queen's birthday is coming soon. Auntie is going to the palace to congratulate her. When the time comes, don't neglect Madam Hou or look down on her. You should comfort her and persuade her. "

Mrs. Ding'anbo snorted and understood what Lu Jin meant, which was to let everyone know that the new young lady of Dongyang Houfu was so domineering that even her mother-in-law dared to disrespect her. The most important thing is that in the face of Mrs. Ding'anbo's concerned inquiry, Mrs. Dongyanghou could not hit the smiling person with her hand, let alone defend the new daughter-in-law, which would hurt the heart of the first daughter-in-law's mother.

When the time comes, the ladies will discuss it, and the queen will know about it, leaving a bad impression on her in front of the queen.

Lu Jin reached out and patted her heart. She was really afraid that Mr. Zhuang would pretend to be generous and virtuous. She didn't expect that he would have such a bad temper. This was a good thing.

Ding Anbo looked at them, snorted and sat back on the bed.

"Women should deal with women's affairs." He said, "Then I won't go out. General Li can't do anything to the Shangguan family and the Wang family. He has nowhere to vent his anger, so he can avoid running into him."

For General Li, Sun Tzu's transformation into a living dead was definitely not a dream, and for the people in the capital, it was not something they would forget as soon as they woke up.

The story involves the general's palace, the princess's palace, the high-ranking Wang family of Taiyuan, and is mixed with the legendary story of a female ghost seeking her life. It is enough to keep people busy for several days.

The excitement was even written in the newspaper and spread quickly to all directions.

Night falls once again on the earth, and a mountain station shines like stars.

The inn is not big, but the whole inn is brightly lit.

However, there was no one coming and going in the courtyard, and there was only one table in the dining hall.

A man in plain robes sat with two servants in gray beside him. One was making tea and the other was sorting out paperwork.

The man in the plain robe is about thirty years old, with a somewhat bookish air. He has several documents in his hand, holding one in one hand to read, and putting the food in his mouth with the other, just like a diligent scholar.

He looked at it and suddenly burst into laughter.

"This is the first time I've seen Shangguan's consort be so tough." He said, reading the words in the document, "This is the princess's entrance hall. My sons and daughters are all royal relatives. I wonder who the **** General Li wants to get?"

"Sure enough, your own son is more important." The servant who compiled the documents had read this newspaper before and said: "When the prince was accused of treason by the late emperor, he secretly sent several servants to the homes of his brothers and sisters to ask for help. Shangguan's consort didn't even have the door. Get out of the way, hide behind the door and say this is not the princess's mansion, it's the Shangguan mansion, a poor family, I don't know who the royal family is."

The servant who was cooking the wine next to him also looked over and raised his eyebrows and said, "I actually provoked Li Chengyuan, so why not Princess Jinyu take the opportunity to get rid of this guy?"

The man in plain robes smiled and said: "The princess still loves Shangguanxue deeply, otherwise Shangguanxue should have been killed when she left the outer chamber."

"Now that the princess is favored again, do you want any handsome boy? Shangguan's consort is already old and his appearance has faded. Why keep him?" The servant who cooked the wine looked a bit disdainful.

The man in plain robe picked up the wine and drank it down, shaking the glass: "You don't understand Princess Jinyu. Even if you don't like the things you take, you will never let go. In this life, Shangguan studies will mean death, and you can only be Shangguan's consort." ”

Hearing this, the two servants were a little curious, "It is said that Shangguan Xuexue had a sweetheart back then. I wonder which girl it was?"

The man in plain robe seemed to understand somewhat. When he wanted to speak, footsteps sounded outside the door. A soldier stood still and said loudly: "Zhang Zhongcheng, there is someone staying outside the inn."

The servant who cooked the wine raised his eyebrows and cursed: "Tell him to get lost. He is not allowed to come near where the Prime Minister is."

Bingwei looked a little embarrassed: "I know, but that person is Dongyang Hou Shizi."

The man in plain robes raised his head and asked, "Zhou Jingyun? Please come in quickly."

Bingwei turned around and ran away, and soon there were footsteps outside the door again.

"It turns out Zhang Zhongcheng is here." The person at the door said through the gauze curtain, "Excuse me, I will leave now."

In the night, the male voice is as gentle as the spring breeze, and as refreshing as the clear spring.

A smile appeared in the indifferent eyes of the man in plain robes.

"How can you say goodbye now that the prince is here?" He said, standing up, "Please come in for a drink."

As he spoke, the arrogance on the faces of the two servants instantly dissipated. The servant who warmed the wine quickly ran to the door, opened the curtain with his own hands, and the people outside the door clearly appeared in front of him.

This is a young man in his twenties, tall and straight, with fair skin and handsome features. The lights in the corridor and indoors shine on him, shining brightly, like a piece of beautiful jade.
