【32】(1/3)
July 15th is the day when Chen Jun left Beijing to take office.
There was a bleak cloud of sorrow all over the Chen Mansion, and several aunts surrounded Shen Jun crying, with tears on their faces full of reluctance.
"Master, you must take care of yourself when you go to Lingnan."
Aunt Sun pressed the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief, sighing softly and sadly, "If Boxun had not prepared for the imperial examination, Siwan had not found a good family, I would definitely go to Lingnan with you, but I had to plan for the future and marriage of the two children..."
When Aunt Liu heard this, she quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, Zhongming is going to take the exam this year, Ruyu's marriage... Alas, Ruyu's marriage also has to worry about..."
Aunt Sun glanced at Aunt Liu contemptuously: Learning from human nature.
Aunt Liu glared back in dissatisfaction: I don’t want to go to Lingnan, whoever looks down on anyone.
Chen Jun was still immersed in the frustration of taking office, and did not pay attention to their secret competition at all.
Aunt Zhou took the lawsuit between these two women and sneered in her heart: Two idiots, without the master and the old lady, how big can you two make in Beijing?
"Don't worry, two sisters, I will take good care of the master for you."
Aunt Zhou said with a sarcastic smile.
Aunt Sun and Aunt Liu couldn't see her hypothesis, and they smiled stiffly, "That's my sister."
On the other hand, the younger generation was also muttering.
Chen Ruyu and Shen Siwan both looked like good sisters and advised Chen Yueling softly, "Why don't you stay there too?"
What kind of good husband’s family can you find in Lingnan?”
"Yes, how can there be more talented people in Beijing in that barren land?"
"Dad went to Lingnan, and my aunt also went to serve me. I stayed alone in Beijing and couldn't worry about them."
Chen Yueling said this, but thought to herself, I don’t think you have a brother who can rely on, staying alone in the capital, and not being bullied to death by you?
The two young masters of the Shen family also advised the second sister, but Chen Yueling had decided and no matter what they said, she would not waver.
Soon after, a servant came in and reported, "Master, the luggage has been installed. I see that the sky is dark. I'm afraid there will be rain later, so we'd better set off early."
Chen Jun sighed deeply, "Okay, let's go."
No matter how much you drag, you will have to leave.
A group of women immediately started to cry again. When Chen Jun surrounded him and walked to the gate, Aunt Sun and Aunt Liu took Chen Jun's hand and cried tenderly—
"Master, I can't bear to leave you. When you arrive in Lingnan, you must work hard to add more meals and take care of yourself. The children and I are waiting for you to come back."
"Yes, yes, sir, you have to take care of yourself."
Aunt Zhou and Shen Yueling looked at each other coldly. Why don’t they build a platform in the tile house when they are so good at acting?
Chen Jun was also filled with tears of tears when they cried. He comforted them softly and urged his two sons to protect the women in the family.
Aunt Sun gritted her teeth and said fiercely, "It's all my fault for Acuo. If she hadn't provoked the Chu family's daughter, how could the Chu family deal with our family like this!"
These days, Chen Jun has not been idle.
It took him a long time to find out the reason why Xu Lang impeached him. When he came back at night, he couldn't help but complain to Aunt Sun.
But no matter how much he complained, he never expected Aunt Sun to say it in front of someone else.
In an instant, his face became serious and he scolded him angrily, "Ignorance and stupid woman, what are you talking nonsense?"
Concubine Chen is now the empress in the palace and a member of the Tian family. Where can you gossip?
If you hear this, you will be disrespectful to you. Then the Heavenly King will not be able to save you!"
Aunt Sun was obviously scared by Chen Jun, tears were still on her eyelashes, and her face turned pale, "Yes... I'm wronged."
Now Chen Jun no longer had the feeling of parting, waved his sleeves and got on the carriage without turning his head.
Aunt Zhou looked at Aunt Sun and Aunt Liu, and smiled, "Two sisters, you should take care of yourself too."
This time, she smiled sincerely without hiding the sarcasm and gloating in her eyes.
After the four carriages were swaying away, Chen Siwan immediately stepped forward and grabbed Aunt Sun, "Mom, you're leaving, let's go back."
Aunt Sun still resented her reproach just now, feeling that she couldn't hold on. After stepping through the threshold, she spat fiercely, "It was the one who harmed people, so I won't let you say it anymore.
The family bird flew to the branches, but it was still the family bird. Where can it become a real phoenix?"
When Shen Boxun heard this, he frowned and said, "Mom, be careful of your words!"
Aunt Sun glared at him angrily, "What?
You just scolded me, now is your turn?
Don’t forget that you crawled out of my stomach!”
Shen Boxun, “…”
His face turned blue, and he muttered in a depressed voice, "It's hard to raise a villain or a woman", and then left with great strides.
Seeing this, Aunt Liu hurriedly took Chen Ruyu and Shen Zhongming back to the yard.
She didn't want to have any disputes with Sun. This woman looked soft and weak, but her mind was even more sinister than a snake or scorpion.
Let’s talk about the carriage, the second girl Chen Yueling lifted a corner of the curtain and looked at the bustling street scene of the capital, and her eyes were full of reluctance.
"Okay, stop watching, the more I look, the more I feel reluctant to let go."
Aunt Zhou whispered.
"Mom, when will we come back?"
Chen Yueling glanced her lips, and when she thought of leaving the capital and moving to that remote place, the gap in her heart was not too big.
How could Aunt Zhou not know her daughter’s thoughts?
She sighed heavily and patted her shoulder lightly, "It's hard to come back."
Chen Yueling leaned against her, "?"
Aunt Zhou said softly, "Don't be too sad, we are the safest one now that we have left the capital.
Don’t think that the two houses of Sun and Liu are left in the capital. As long as the fourth girl is still favored, they will be in trouble sooner or later.”
Chen Yueling was shocked, “Acuo?
What does this have to do with her? It would be fine if she doesn't help her father. It doesn't make sense to harm our family, right?"
Aunt Zhou snorted coldly, "Do you really think that the Chu family is the one who harmed our family?
Although your father is greedy for money, who is not greedy for officials?
Those big worms are still free. Your father is greedy for some money, so it is necessary to demote him to Lingnan so seriously?
It was obvious that His Majesty was venting his anger for Acuo.”
Seeing her daughter's face full of fear, Aunt Zhou said again, "But don't worry, we have never harmed Acuo. She has a wrongdoing and has a debt. She wants to take revenge and go to Sun.
Your father killed his wife because he favored his concubine and was indifferent to Acuo for many years, so His Majesty made trouble for him like this. Now he has been demoted, so he has calculated that His Majesty will not punish him to death."
"Well..." Chen Yueling breathed a little relieved and asked again, "Mom, you just said that Acuo wanted to take revenge and went to find Aunt Sun. Was Siwan really pushing Acuo down the lake?"
“What about it?
Sun's daughter, like her, is used to pretending to be pitiful, but she is not ruthless when she hurts people."
Speaking of this, a cold hatred burst out in Aunt Zhou's eyes and gritted her teeth and said, "Why do you think your brother was gone? He was also killed by Sun! Poor, he is six months old, and he is a formed male fetus."
Aunt Zhou never told Chen Yueling about these old things.
Now that I opened up, as if I had bid farewell to the past, I shook off all the dirty and pickled past events in the back house.
The more Chen Yueling listened, the more frightened he felt.
At the end, Aunt Zhou raised a big sarcastic smile, "We are now far away from the capital, with high mountains and high emperors. After a while, we can still live our good life.
As for the two idiots Sun and Liu, huh, I jumped around the feet of the emperor without knowing how to live or die, and wait and see, they have their good fruits to eat!"
——
Let’s talk about the harem, today is also quite lively.
Today is the fifteenth day, and it is the day when all the concubines go to Yongning Palace to pay their respects.
Because the matter of Concubine Chen serving the bed two days ago, the concubines chatted enthusiastically. As they chatted, many people were also a little excited.
Your Majesty has never summoned anyone before, and everyone is the same. Even if you haven't served you for a long time in the palace, you will be relatively balanced.
Now a concubine Chen appeared, directly breaking the balance-
They thought to themselves:
Your Majesty likes women.
Your Majesty will also summon concubines.
They are also concubines, and their appearance, talent and knowledge are extremely outstanding. Since Chen Meng can do it, why can't they?
Everyone is a concubine in the harem and is a woman of the emperor.
Everyone here beat Xiao Jiujiu, but Acuo was blocked on the road by Chu Xianxian.
