Chapter 416 Angry (2)
However, later Zhao Mei gradually faded out of people's vision, and then there was a gentle, virtuous, and talented Xia Yan, who was known as a talented woman, and Jiang Quan intended to be praised. People only remembered that the current wife of Shangshu Mansion was Xia Yan, not Zhao Mei at the time. When they were mentioned by two girls, some people remembered the beautiful and kind young woman at that time. After all, people were good at heart, and some people said, "Oh, who is the first wife who died young, and then the first wife is a kind and kind person."
The official came forward to take the confession from Lian Qiao's hand and glanced at the crowd. Now Princess Hong'an is very popular. There is also the backer of Prince Jinying's Mansion, so he didn't dare to be negligent when he heard about Jiang Ruan's name. He only drank a few times and did not make noises in the crowd. He walked in with the confession.
It usually takes one day for the case to be tried by the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice. On weekdays, ordinary cases will be tried directly at the yamen. Unless the noble family has great injustice to be prosecuted, and they are afraid that the person who is sued is too powerful and the people in the yamen will intervene and make the case unfair, they will be added to the Secretary of Justice. The Secretary of Justice can also choose whether to try the case or not. After all, there are too many twists and turns in the family of wealthy people, and they will cause trouble if they are not careful. However, since a official dares to make the decision to resolve the complaint today, it is obvious that he had received the greeting from the adults long ago. If the case is accepted, he will have to be tried. The people around him will know that there will be another excitement tomorrow.
Dewzhu felt that it was not enough and deliberately said loudly: "Xia Yan, a concubine of the Shangshu Mansion, poisoned the mistress and murdered the legitimate son and daughter. The methods were cruel. As the head of the family, Jiang Shangshu was well aware of the reason, but he pretended to be deaf and pushed the boat. The mistress died, but said that she died of illness. Please ask the case department to conduct a diligent trial and give my lady and wife a clean and fair!"
The crowd that was about to disperse suddenly became boiling again, and Luzhu's words were a shocking scandal. In fact, there were many people in the wealthy family who had committed a concubine to murder the official position. But if Jiang Quan knew everything that had happened, he pretended to be deaf and mute, and even agreed to Xia Yan's approach, this would be the first time. Any officials in the capital who had a reputation but were not fools would definitely not let this happen. Just because once it was revealed, it would be a huge stain, and the fight between women in the backyard was jealous. Men should not participate, especially in it, doing something to put a detriment. One person could treat his first wife so cruelly, so how could there be any humanity?
For example, he was a ridiculous person who could not handle the backyard affairs before. Now, as soon as Dewdrop's words came out, Jiang Quan would become the representative of an ugly man in the capital. He was filthy and righteous, cruel in his heart, and even had a determination to abandon his own flesh and blood. As a parent, he was really a choice among thousands of people.
Luzhu and Lian Qiao looked at each other and smiled, both of which were a kind of venting a sense of venting a bitter anger. They had been with Jiang Ruan for many years and could see clearly how Jiang Quan's attitude towards Jiang Ruan. It would be better not to have such a father. Zhao Mei was wronged by the death of Zhao Mei. The status of Jiang Ruan's brothers and sisters in the Shangshu Mansion has gone from being bullied to not being underestimated. Now it is a small revenge, and they are very happy.
The incident of Princess Hong'an's lawsuit against her biological father spread throughout the capital in just a short time. Xia Yan and the Xia family were gone, and Jiang Chao and Jiang Susu were also dead. Naturally, there was no evidence of death. However, the only Jiang Quan was still alive, which was equivalent to pointing all the fingers at Jiang Quan.
In the palace, Jiang Ruan looked at the sun in the sky. The snow stopped early in the morning, and even a little sun came out. The weather was good. She slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then said to Jin San and Tianzhu beside her: "Let's go, the time is almost over."
Tianzhu got up and put the silver rat-haired cloak on her, put a warmer in her hand, and then followed her out the door.
The Shangshu Mansion is very lively today. Since Jiang Chao's death, it is wrong. It should be said that since many years ago, when Jiang Quan's career began to decline, the Shangshu Mansion has stopped being as busy as before. When Jiang Quan was in the court, people who wanted to visit came every day, and there were so many posts in the house that the table could not be put down. Jiang Quan discussed the situation in the court with the high-ranking officials, and Xia Yan greeted and joked with the noble ladies.
They were all versatile people, and they were all laughing and laughing in the Jiang Mansion. At that time, Jiang Susu was still a fairy who was not ordinary, and could play a guzheng in the garden to make people stop and linger. Many children of princes and nobles were confused by the beautiful sound of the piano, and stood in the corner of the outer wall and listened to the music, and fell in love with the beauty. Jiang Chao always returned from the Imperial College with pride and talked with the newly married children of aristocratic families.
At that time, Mrs. Jiang was still alive. The second aunt and Jiang Li dared not speak out every day when they were angry at Xia Yan. Jiang Dan hugged in the house cowardly, and it was a prosperous place. People all speculated that the seemingly clear-headed Shangshu Mansion would one day become the backbone of the court. Because they were loyal enough and had no mistakes.
All the prosperity seemed to be still yesterday, and the excitement in it had nothing to do with Jiang Ruan, as if the mother and son had always been strangers. Later, when she came, the Shangshu Mansion seemed to be in a bad mood and gradually declined. The glory of the past was no longer there, and everyone said that it was not that the time had not come, but God was watching from the top. The cause planted in the past in the Shangshu Mansion eventually caused the evil results today. In recent years, the Jiang family had frequently encountered accidents, but now Jiang Ruan's complaint has torn the real reason apart.
The common people were all simple and direct in mind. Some people blocked the door of Shangshu Mansion and threw eggs, green vegetables and leaves to the door. The guards of Jiang's mansion came out to stop him, and they were scolded and they dared to fight hard again. They had to close the door in shame in the anger of the people, and the public was invaded.
It was when everyone was indignant that they saw a carriage slowly coming from the crowd, and the crowd automatically divided into two routes. The carriage was exquisite but not long-lasting, and had a low beauty. The driver who drove the carriage was actually a tall and handsome young man, and he knew it was a wealthy family at a glance. People seemed to feel that the people in the carriage were either rich or noble. Seeing that it was coming to the Shangshu Mansion, they all fell silent and watched.
The carriage finally stopped, the curtain was lifted, and two tall young women jumped out of it. The two bowed and helped one woman out of the carriage.
