Chapter 52: Implicated

After Ruan's words were finished, Cheng Yujin almost blurted out, why did she help Cheng Yumo? She's not Cheng Yumo's mother. Is Cheng Yumo having a good time?
But Cheng Yujin calmed down quickly, and his speech was quick and easy, but later it was difficult to keep his reputation and property. The best way is to say good things, but you can't pay a penny. It is really not wise to tear up your face with Ruan Shi.
Cheng Yujin secretly pinched his palm, and then said in a sincere and sincere tone: "Of course I hope Cheng Jia is good, but my ability is limited, there is really nothing to add to the makeup of the second sister. There are still two thousand I only have a few title deeds for two cashes. What is the second sister's thing. Speaking of it, it is useless for me to be a sister.
Ruan Shi frowned: "Don't you take three shops from Dad's hand, in addition to there is a small Zhuangzi, how can you get nothing out of so many things in your hand?"
"The second aunt didn't know." Cheng Yujin said, "The grandfather gave me the storefront because of my pity. These stores are inferior to the hands of my father and second uncle, and the monthly profit will be enough for daily expenses. Relying on these stores, I do n’t have to worry about food and clothing in the future, but if I want to accumulate silver, it is not enough. "
When the old man Hou Cheng gave something on the bright side, everyone knows that there are three shops under Cheng Yujin's name, a small Zhuangzi. In fact, with Cheng Yujin's current financial resources, it is easy to buy a good set of mahogany furniture, not to mention her fixed assets, title deeds, grange and gold, etc., only to say that the monthly profit of Yunyifang and so on is enough to buy a few Set of furniture. However, Cheng Yujin wouldn't admit that he had money. As long as they came to ask Cheng Yujin, he would cry. Anyway, he wouldn't want to cover her money.
Cheng Yujin saw that Ruan was still not reconciled, and took another strong medicine. She suddenly changed her tone and said very cheerfully: "Second aunt, why don't you lend me the two thousand and two dollars of the second sister, I will expand the shop, and then return the money to the second aunt after earning money?"
Ruan's smile was a bit stiff, and Cheng Yujin's several stores couldn't make much money. Now he has to borrow money to expand the storefront? What if the compensation is lost?
Ruan's face is not very good-looking, Cheng Yujin seems to be invisible, and he is interested in discussing borrowing money with Ruan's. The more Ruan's face became darker, he quickly found an opportunity to divert the topic and refused to mention the store. Cheng Yujin pretended to be very disappointed, but he hummed gently. The best way to cope with Ruan's desire to take the opportunity to fight the autumn wind is to borrow money from her in turn to see if she dare to mention it.
Ruan continued to grind Cheng's old wife, Cheng Yujin quietly relieved. But this is not a long-term plan after all, she can be silly for a while, but she can't just pass the silly fool. If the dowry is not resolved, she will always stand on the ice, maybe when it will fall. Cheng Yujin's eyes fixed on the door quietly. When Ruan's dowry was raised, she quickly sent Du Ruo to invite the master of Qingfu County. After all, Cheng Yujin is a junior, and she is hard pressed to refuse Ruan's request. But Qingfu is different. Only the Lord of Qingfu County is willing to come forward. Ruan's mention of Qingfu can easily block it back. Mrs. Cheng will not be too detrimental to Cheng Yujin when he looks at the face of Qingfu County.
Some things need to be done by Cheng Yujin, but for Qingfu, it is just a sentence.
Cheng Yujin thought that although she was not born of the master of Qingfu County, but her daughter's obligations in these years, she did not fall at all. Please be happy every day, and she was not absent one day. It ’s been more than ten years, and it ’s time for a dog to develop feelings. Looking at the sentiments of these years, should the master of Qingfu County help her this time?
In Chen Mingyuan, the attendant knelt at the table of Cheng Yuanjing and was reporting things in the palace. Liu Yi said: "His Royal Highness, some people in the DPRK mentioned the country's instability in the past few days. Zhezi handed it to the cabinet, Yang Shoufu said he did not dare to discuss the king, and did not write a ticket to send directly to the emperor.
The crown prince is the root of a nation. Over the years, the prince has been missing, and North Korea and China have been arguing for a long time. At first, the courtiers saw the emperor suffered a big blow, and they searched for the prince in the folk like crazy, they did not dare to touch the mold, and no one mentioned the matter of the king. Over the years, the Qingxuan concept has gradually passed, and the crown prince is still silent, but the second prince from Queen Yang is getting bigger and bigger every day, especially since this year, the reputation of the second prince is smart and educated, and respects teachers. Asoye.
Therefore, there is no lack of other thoughts in Korea and China, and some uneasy voices are becoming louder.
When Liu Yi and others heard these things, they were so angry that they scolded the chaotic thief. The heart of the Yang family is known to everyone.
The eighth-year-old Prince of Jianwu was seriously ill and sent to Qingxuanguan for recuperation. Later, Qing Xuanguan was washed away by the mountain torrent, and the young Crown Prince also disappeared. Because of the incident under Yang Shoufu, Yang Shoufu resigned and blamed himself at home. Later, he was invited by the queen mother to make up for the problem and let Yang Shoufu investigate the matter. Later, after checking, Yang Shoufu dismissed several magistrates, blaming them for their unfavourable water control, and no further words.
This case reveals absurdity from the beginning to the end. Although Qingxuanguan is located in the middle of mountains and rivers, the incense is very prosperous because of the Taoism, and there are pilgrims not far away all year round. Taoist temples always looked at Feng Shui when they selected the site, and Qingxuanguan had existed for fifty or sixty years. So many pilgrims have been coming and going for so many years, why was it washed away by the mountain torrent just after the visit of His Royal Highness the Prince, and even the Taoist temple did not survive. ?
Many people do not believe in torrents. However, there is no way. Yang Shoufu personally finalized the case. The queen mother left the dossier in Cining Palace in the name of seeing Wu Siren. Even if other people did not believe it, who would dare to investigate? What's more, since the prince's disappearance, the emperor has sent countless manpower and material resources to find it year after year, with no news. Gradually, the courtiers all agreed that His Royal Highness Prince Li Chengjing was dead.
The emperor could not accept reality because of excessive grief, and it would be OK to keep the crown prince for ten years, but it could not be delayed indefinitely. The country must not have no monarch in a day, and similarly, it should also be decided as early as possible.
The courtier assumed that the prince was dead, so the two princes were both heirs and long, and they were justified candidates for the crown prince. This is also the meaning of Empress Yang. In the past few years, light or dark, the emperor has been reminded several times not to delay the old things, and to register the new prince as soon as possible.
Yang Shoufu and Yang Fucheng have been in charge of the dynasty for more than 20 years, and it will never be handed to the emperor without Yang Fucheng's consent. It can be seen that Yang Fucheng has little patience left.
Liu Yi and others were angry and helpless about this situation. After they finished speaking, they all waited for Cheng Yuanjing's command: "His Royal Highness, what do you think?"
Cheng Yuanjing raised his eyebrows, his expression was not serious, but when he was silent, no one in the room dared to raise his head. Cheng Yuanjing didn't speak immediately, he slowly thought of many things in the past.
He was born in the palace and was not very well when he was young. When he was very young, he knew that this world surnamed Li, but the master, was the Yang family.
His father, now the emperor Li Huan is actually not justified heir to the throne, even Li Huan was not a favored prince. After he reached adulthood, Li Huan went to Fandi to marry and set up the palace early. Li Huan ’s title is King Kang, and he has no expectations and ambitions. Li Huan himself does not want to fight, and is satisfied with being a wealthy idle king.
In the 20 years of Yonghe, the crown prince and King Rong struggled so badly that one was assassinated and one defeat was demoted to the servant. Renzong was so angry that after he defeated the Rongwang family, he immediately became seriously ill. At that time, Empress Yang was still a queen. After discussing with her younger brother Yang Fucheng, she summoned the king of Kang into the capital. Before King Kang's frame arrived in Beijing, Emperor Renzong died of illness.
It can be said that Kang Wang Lihuan was ascended to the throne with the support of Empress Yang and Yang Fucheng. For many years later, the harem and the former dynasty were also held by the sisters.
After that, Princess Kang of the Kang family fluctuated several times, and was difficult to be named a queen. She gave birth to her eldest son and died in less than two years. After Zhong's death, Yang Miaocheng's daughter Yang Miao entered the palace and was sealed the queen. At that time, Cheng Yuanjing was still raised in the palace. Yang Miao proposed to adopt Cheng Yuanjing, but the emperor refused. It may be that the emperor's vigilance annoyed the Yang family. Not long after, Cheng Yuanjing was suddenly infected with the disease and was sent to Qingxuanguan to recuperate, and then Qingxuanguan broke into a mountain torrent. The prince also watched hundreds of people and disappeared.
At the age of five, Cheng Yuanjing died in his ninth life and was escorted by the guards to escape from Qingxuan Temple. He watched the guards die one by one, and in the end he couldn't overwhelm himself and fell into the river. Yang Fucheng destroyed the upstream dam, and there were heavy rains in those days, and the floods in the mountains were really huge. Because the water flow could not be controlled, after Cheng Yuanjing fell into the river, Yang Fucheng also quickly lost his track, and Cheng Yuanjing escaped by chance. After that, he hid his name in secret, first hiding in the exiled little Xue family, and then returned to the capital in the name of the outside room. After all, he survived with difficulty and perseverance.
Cheng Yuanjing always knew what kind of situation he was facing. His father, Li Huan, was weak and generous in order to be mediocre. For many years, he could only maintain the illusion and deceive himself. Li Huan couldn't keep his wife when the Zhong was a queen, and Li Huan couldn't keep his son when Cheng Yuanjing was a prince. Now, Cheng Yuanjing has lost even his prince's identity. If he wants to contend with the giant Yang family, it's not easy.
For more than 20 years, the Yang family has been in control of the Chaotang, and its roots are far from being imagined by outsiders. Without Yang Fucheng's approval, no matter what happened outside, Li Huan could not be reached. If Cheng Yuanjing stays in the palace, it is the same as a manipulative life. The Yang family wants him to see what he can see. That being the case, Cheng Yuanjing took the risk and went through the experience at the grass-roots level as a courtier. He went to see the real folks and the real officialdom.
He thought that he could always have two or three years, at least let him figure out where the boundary of the Yang family is.
It is a pity that now it seems that he hasn't even been in three years.
Since the Yang family intends to tear the face, and the sword points to the East Palace, Cheng Yuanjing can no longer slowly experience it. Many of his plans afterwards have to be rearranged, and when he wants to come to Cheng Yuanjing, he is almost at the point of "sickness."
Cheng Yuanjing made his decision instantly, and he ordered the same thing, and his subordinates heard it and promised.
They were negotiating secret affairs, and the cuckoo's voice suddenly came from the door. This was the agreed signal. Cheng Yuanjing immediately stopped the voice, and Liu Yi also stretched his face, his arms pressed to his side.
Cuckoo is disturbed by an uninvited guest. Who will be the comer at such a coincidence? The sound of footsteps in the yard approached quickly, and the guard disguised as Cheng Xiaoxiao deliberately raised his voice to remind the inside: "Nine Lord, someone is here."
The green muscles on Liu Yi's arm have burst, and Cheng Yuanjing is very calm. He calmly asked, "Who is it?"
"The maid beside the big girl."
Liu Yi several people unexpectedly, what did Miss Cheng come over to do? However, since it was her, there was no threat, and Liu Yi's arm returned to its original position.
The men all relaxed their vigilance, but Cheng Yuanjing's expression cooled down. Even when I heard that Yang Fucheng had deliberately usurped the crown prince, Cheng Yuanjing's expression didn't change. However, now he only heard Cheng Yujin send someone to his face.
Cheng Yujin is speculative and profitable, and she is good at pleasing. If she conveys good things, she must come by herself. Only when bad news is sent will she let others do the work. Cheng Yujin suddenly sent the big maid beside him to come to him. What happened?
Cheng Yuanjing's face was cold and solemn, saying: "Biography."
As soon as Liu Yi frowned, he quickly persuaded: "His Royal Highness, the plan is unsuccessful, and the road ahead is difficult. We have little time. His Highness will leave the Cheng family soon, and this joint should not be too much involved with the Cheng family."
"I know." Of course Cheng Yuanjing understands this truth, but what if Cheng Yujin really has anything to do?
She is such a strong person that she has to send a maid to invite him. Most of them have no choice.
Cheng Yuanjing said: "Pass her in."
Liu Yi wanted to persuade him again, but Cheng Yuanjing had stood up and looked cold and dignified. Seeing this, Liu Yi could only sigh and swallow the words back into his stomach.
At this time Cheng Yujin was sitting in Shou'an Church, left and right waiting to see the figure of Qingfu County Lord, his heart was gradually cold.
Shou An Tang is only a tea road away from the yard of Gyeongbok County. Du Ruo is a steady man and will never delay on the road. Now that people haven't come yet, the basic explanation is that the master of Gyeongbok County will not come.
Ruan's questioning is getting closer and closer, and Cheng Yujin knows that he hasn't been able to hold on for so long. Cheng Yujin couldn't tell what she was feeling. After a while, she laughed at herself.
Only the appearance of the words, the owner of Gyeongbok County was unwilling.
Also, Cheng Yujin and the master of Qingfu County bear the names of mother and daughter, but in fact, who is Cheng Yujin who is Qingfu? People have their own sons, and all their property and energy must naturally be left to their own sons.
Cheng Yujin's heart sank quickly, and the master of Qingfu County couldn't count on her. Who else could she expect to help her? Perhaps Cheng Min would be useful. The last time Xu Zhixian's words were hit by Cheng Yujin, Cheng Min was ashamed of her. Taking advantage of this, maybe Cheng Min could help her keep her dowry. Cheng Min is the only daughter of Mrs. Cheng. She may speak, and Mrs. Cheng may listen.
However, this method is basically an alternative. Cheng Min has been married and usually does not return to Yichun Hou Mansion. He is expected to be pure luck. Cheng Yujin frowned and ran through all of the Cheng family quickly in his heart, and finally found that there was no one to rely on.
Her heart sank uncontrollably.
Ruan said: "The dowry was originally out of the public, and the matter was in a hurry, Mo Er was about to marry, and Mo Er should be used first. The rule is that the dead person is alive. Are you embarrassed by Houfu? "
Mrs. Cheng finally spoke, and she said in a deep tone: "But after all, the old Hou said it personally, let the dowry use each one. We are against his will, I am afraid it is not good."
Cheng Yujin finished speaking in his heart, and Mrs. Cheng said that it was a good decision. Now, she only lacks a person with a bad reputation.
Sure enough, Ruan's heard hurriedly: "When Dad spoke at the time, only our own family was present. As long as we don't say, who can know? Presumably Dad learned from Jiuquan and will support our approach."
Mrs. Cheng showed a reassuring look. Anyway, these words were said by Ruan Shi, and it had nothing to do with her. Mrs. Cheng was about to say something, and a man ’s voice suddenly came out of the door:
Who said nobody knows?
