Happy Marriage

Chapter 217: stay married

An Sheng nodded: "Master probably doesn't know that today, the son of Yu is escorting food back to Beijing. He entered the palace to tell the emperor about the situation, and asked the emperor to reward me. My father, the emperor, has ordered his acquittal, and he wants to be promoted to two ranks. Level. The emperor personally summoned the disciple and asked him whether he wanted a title or a bounty?"

Leng Nanxian glanced at Jin Zi beside him: "Then you chose the bounty?"

Ansheng nodded naturally.

Leng Nanxian looked her up and down like an idiot, and said with a smile, "I knew you were a money fan."

An Sheng approached with a smile, and said mysteriously, "This is what the disciple asked to honor the master."

Leng Nanxian pointed at the jeweled gold and jade heads, and laughed dumbly: "Those hairpin rings are also for Master?"

An Sheng nodded proudly, and asked slyly, "With all this gold and jewelry, is it enough for Master to marry An Sheng to a wife?"

The smile on Leng Nanxian's face suddenly froze: "What did you say?"

An Sheng still didn't notice the change on Leng Nanxian's face, and counted it complacently: "They said that you are too prosperous, so you live in poverty, and no good girl is willing to marry Master. You also said that there is something for the disciple to serve him, so An Sheng asked the emperor for these rewards, should it be enough?"

Leng Nanxian looked a little weird. Looking at An Sheng, his anger gradually boiled over, and he gritted his teeth: "Who is talking nonsense behind your back?"

An Sheng smiled embarrassingly, scratched his head, and did not intend to betray Guan Hetian: "Many people say this, but I know no, there are clearly many girls who adore Master, but Master doesn't like it."

"You gave me this gold, and I have someone I like?"

"At the very least, if Master has this gold, more girls will like you. You can cast nets everywhere and focus on fishing." An Sheng was still sluggishly unaware of the change in Leng Nanxian's tone, tilting his head and laughing. .

Leng Nanxian sneered: "I haven't seen you for a few days, but you have learned to worry. I don't need your guidance on Master's affairs!"

He spoke sternly, and An Sheng was stunned for a moment, with the feeling of a hot face sticking to a cold butt: "Master, I"

Leng Nanxian took a deep breath and closed his eyes: "Master is tired, go back and take all your gold with you."

"I'm not leaving!" An Sheng was confused, his mouth pouted in grievance: "I was looking forward to Master's return, and I ran to see you immediately. I have a lot to tell you, and you will drive me away as soon as I meet you."

Leng Nanxian turned over to himself, turned inward, and ignored her.

"Master!" An Sheng still shouted softly.

Leng Nanxian ignored it.

Sister Feng came over from the front yard and stood outside the door with a light cough: "Young Master, Miss An Sheng, dinner is hot, I'll bring it to you."

An Sheng twisted his body and walked out the door sadly, with red eyes: "Sister Feng, Master is angry with me and ignores me."

"Why?" Sister Feng glanced at the room in surprise.

An Sheng pursed his lips: "I don't know either. I kindly brought gold to him and kept it for me to marry my wife. Master suddenly got angry."

When Sister Feng heard this, she knew it, and looked at An Sheng narrowly, winking her eyes: "You are so expecting your master to find you a mistress?"

An Sheng was stunned.

"Your master is just ignoring you, and you are so wronged. If he marries a wife, they will raise their eyebrows in the future, Qin Se and Ming, and your master will have no time to pay attention to you. Aren't you going to cry and swell your nose? ?"

An Sheng was stunned again.

"Why did the master ignore me when he married a wife?"

"You are such a clever girl, how can you not be enlightened?" Sister Feng was so anxious that she lowered her voice: "Women are jealous, your master loves you so much, your mistress sees it, doesn't she want to be jealous? Naturally I can't let your master treat you so nicely, maybe he will drive you back with a slap."

When An Sheng heard this, he suddenly shivered.

Absolutely impossible!

Sister Feng's words made her feel a sense of crisis in an instant, and she shuddered without thinking about it.

When she remembered that Master wanted to be considerate to other women and reprimanded herself for other women, she suddenly understood that when she first entered the medicine house, Qianzhou was hostile to her.

Feel the same!

Seeing the change in her expression, Sister-in-Law pursed her lips and shoved the tray into her hand: "Hurry up and get the son up, the food is going to be cold. He has been bumping on the carriage for a day today, can he not be hungry? "

An Sheng nodded, although she still didn't understand why the master ignored her, but without saying a word, she went back to the room and threw the food aside, and quickly gathered up those ingots and golden jade head and face with her hands and feet.

Leng Nanxian has long ears. He has already listened to Sister Feng's words in his ears, and his heart is much smoother. The corners of his mouth can't help twitching twice, and he asks in a muffled voice, "Repent?"

An Sheng threw a heavy bag of ingots on the table, and said flatteringly: "Master just pretends he didn't hear what he said. This gold is counted as An Sheng's deposit with Master."

Leng Nanxian just snorted softly and teased: "Alright, with all this gold as a dowry, you might still be able to get married. There are always one or two people who are greedy for money and don't despise you."

An Sheng was mocked for no reason, but he was not angry. After a long time, she got a good feel for Leng Nanxian's temper, as if every time she was annoyed, Leng Nanxian was more happy.

She leaned closer and bared her teeth at Leng Nanxian: "Then master, is he willing to show his face for dinner now?"

Leng Nanxian coughed uncomfortably: "I seem to be a little hungry."

Early the next morning, Dali Temple put up a notice, telling the people of the world that Li Shangshu, the Ministry of Household, was greedy for ink to transfer public food, and blamed Xia Yuanwai, who was unwilling to join forces.

I heard that it was Yu Jingyun who not only retrieved the public grain, but also arrested Li Shangshu's comrades. That person has already confessed to Li Shangshu's crimes.

This matter immediately caused an uproar in the capital, and no one thought that in the end, there would be a shocking reversal.

Xia Yuan, who was originally reviled by everyone, has transformed into a good official who is upright and honest.

An Sheng returned to the uncle's mansion and heard the whole story from Xia Yuncang, the uncle of the Xia family, which was almost the same as what An Sheng and others expected.

According to the confession of the man, Li Shangshu has been using his position to greedy public grains, colluding with grain merchants, and exchanging cash for cash.

With the gradual expansion of greed, Li Shangshu began to be dissatisfied with these petty troubles, and began to plan this plan a long time ago.

He wooed and colluded with many officials of the Ministry of Households, and took advantage of their flaws in their duties or the handle of corruption to control many people to work for him.

Summer members are exceptions.

He is timid and kind, and although he has small faults, it is not enough to be a handle to be pinned down. Moreover, he did not agree with the actions of Li Shangshu and others, and there were many disagreements.

This is also the reason why he has not been able to be promoted in the position of Yuanwailang for so many years.

After the autumn grain was put into the warehouse, Li Shangshu immediately found an excuse to transfer the Xia staff out of the capital, and had already contacted the grain merchant, intending to take the opportunity to transport the public grain to the area of ​​Huguang, which was not harvested this year, to make huge profits.

It's just a pity that people's calculations are not as good as heaven's calculations. The torrential rain in the south caused the road to be destroyed and the road to transport food to be cut off, so that half of the plan had to be temporarily delayed.

As for Aunt Rou, it was Li Shangshu's beauty trick in order to delay Xia Yuanwai's return to Beijing. Later, she simply decided to do it, and asked Aunt Rou to follow Xia Yuanwai back to Beijing as a chess piece beside him.

It was also the chess piece of Concubine Rou that played a crucial role. Xia Yuanwai accidentally discovered Cang Lin's shortfall, and she immediately informed the gentle aunt Rou, relieved her depression, and recorded the number of shortfalls on the account book.

Li Shangshu heard the news and knew that this matter could not be delayed any longer, and he had to make a decisive decision.

He instructed Concubine Rou to find ways to obtain the account book, and instructed it to be burned. Then, when Member Xia was not in Canglin, he secretly transferred the second batch of public grain at night. Then she instructed Concubine Rou to use a plan to move the tiger away from the mountain, and transfer Xia Yuanwai out of Canglin.

His men took the opportunity to burn down the empty warehouse, and framed it for Xia Yuanwai.

As long as Xia Yuanwai was beheaded by the emperor for his crimes, then the matter would be seamless.

Unexpectedly, Yu Jingyun arrived in time, and the Cang Lin was not completely burned, which aroused Yu Jingyun's suspicion. Coupled with the appearance of An Sheng, the case was out of his control and hung outside.

Astonished, he tried his best to defraud and destroy the account books, operate secretly, steal the pillars, and instruct Concubine Rou to testify against Xia Yuanwai's self-robbery, burn the evidence, and Xia Yuanwai was sentenced to execution.

Who would have thought that Xia Ansheng and Leng Nanxian still refused to give up, but Dali Temple complained and found Canglinli. He jumped over the wall and quickly dispatched killers to assassinate An Sheng and Leng Nanxian.

Fortunately, Yu Jingyun arrived in time, which made a fundamental turning point in the case.

These conspiracies were exposed to the sun, and like a gust of wind, they quickly spread in the capital.

Xia Yuanwai was blessed by misfortune. Not only did he not lose his life, but he was promoted two ranks. This is all because he gave birth to a good daughter, Xia Ansheng.

Suddenly, like a spring breeze, thousands of trees and pears bloom.

Xia Ansheng's name spread among the people of the capital following this case. She made a riot at Dali Temple, beat drums and complained about injustice, Yu Shizi fell from the sky at a critical moment, and the heroic rescue of beauty was exaggerated and exaggerated for a while.

The people are good at chasing the wind and the shadows, carefully scrutinizing the process, and those who do good add a lot of trivial details, blowing spittle. In addition, An Sheng was summoned by the emperor to commend him again, and he was quickly pushed to the cusp of the storm.

Overnight, she became the hottest figure in the capital.

This was something she didn't expect.

She woke up from her joy and went to greet her father in good spirits. As soon as she walked out of the gate of the big mansion, she was drowned out by the overwhelming discussion.
