The sturdy life of crossing

Chapter 135 2 Armor

"The one surnamed Jiang," military officer Feng Yiliang called out unceremoniously, "are you sure you don't have any illegitimate children left outside?" He rubbed his chin and looked at Nan Pingbo's old face repeatedly.

Nanping Bo was very angry: "Master Feng, I respect you as an official in the same dynasty, but I didn't allow you to be so humiliated. If you don't speak clearly today, don't blame my uncle's house for not being relentless."

"Okay, don't look at what this place is and what you are doing. If you ruin the palace examination and His Majesty's important event, no one can help you." An Guogong next to him came forward to act as a peacemaker.

Uncle Nan Ping gave An Guogong face, he was not as knowledgeable as this vulgar man, otherwise he would have to break up with him on the spot, even if the trouble came in front of His Majesty, he would not be afraid.

Feng Yiliang is a rascal, and he doesn't look down on Nanping uncle's mansion at all. In his opinion, this family will only put on a show, and muttered nonchalantly: "Who knows if my mansion has done something that can't be seen?" Guang's scandal, maybe it's fake, and the real blood has been thrown out of the house."

Uncle Nanping didn't speak his mind in court, there were always people who didn't like it and wanted to see a joke in Uncle Nanping's mansion, so he grabbed Feng Yiliang and asked him what was going on, of course Feng Yiliang wouldn't hide it, which made several people Itching in his heart, he wanted to meet the person Feng Yiliang said looked like Uncle Nanping's illegitimate son, but Uncle Nanping fell down angrily when he saw that the surname Feng did not calm down.

Feng Yiliang grinned and said, "Are you still worrying about not having the chance to meet the Jinshi of the new department? Next time, I will point it out to you."

"it is good."

Although Uncle Nan Ping was very annoyed, Feng Yiliang's words entered his heart to some extent. How could someone be like him?He wanted to see who it was, and let him be humiliated by a vulgar man surnamed Feng.

Father Jian did not see anyone looking for him until he left the hall, he was relieved.

In the Nanping uncle's mansion, outsiders know that although the uncle's wife is the Gu family, due to his health, the Gu family does not take care of the big and small affairs of the uncle's mansion, and only cares about the Buddha in the backyard. Chen, the present Jiang Tinghui, the eldest son of Uncle Nanping, was born in her womb. Although he was recorded under Gu's name as a legitimate son, Jiang Tinghui has always respected Gu, but the fact that his biological mother is Chen is known inside and outside the house. Not to mention that she is in charge of the uncle's house, because of her status as the eldest son, no one dares to underestimate this Chen's "Madam." Gao Mama, Chen's confidant, came in from the outside and gave Chen a salute. After making a look to both sides, the servants serving Mrs. Chen immediately backed out, then walked to Mrs. Chen and whispered, "The old slave has already made arrangements for the people."

Mrs. Chen's many years of self-cultivation made her look kind and kind. No one inside or outside the mansion would praise Mrs. Chen, but at this moment when she heard the news from Mama Gao, a stern look flashed in her eyes, and her face suddenly became vicious: " Didn't expect them to come here, didn't they know which mansion it was at the beginning? Didn't the people arranged over there pay close attention to him?"

Mama Gao couldn't help her eyebrows twitching. Others said Mrs. Chen was kind-hearted, but as Chen's confidant, how could she not know what kind of person she really was, so she quickly replied in a low voice respectfully: "It's been too long, Mr. The slave became slack about the matter over there, and the old slave went to investigate. The county magistrate over there committed a crime and the whole family was exiled. The county magistrate speaks out."

"Hmph, not enough success, more than failure." A look of displeasure flashed in Chen's eyes. Madam Gao knew that this was already a warning to herself. It's hard to say by Chen's side, even his life may not be saved, how could Chen let the person who knows all her secrets be out of her control.

So Mama Gao knelt down with a bang, lowered her head and didn't dare to argue for herself, Chen turned the prayer beads in her hand and lowered her eyes halfway, opened her eyes after about a cup of tea, and helped Mama Gao up with her own hands : "Okay, ma'am, I also know that I can't blame you for this. If you don't mention you, even I have forgotten that little bastard. After all, in the blink of an eye, more than 30 years have passed."

"Thank you, master, the master is kind, otherwise there would be no chance for that little bastard to survive." Mama Gao's heart went cold, she felt that she had narrowly escaped death.

"Yeah, it's not that I was soft-hearted at the beginning. How can I live for more than 30 years? It's enough to live for more than 30 years. Yunzhu, this time you can arrange for someone to come again, so you don't need to keep it anymore." She was scruples about the Gu family, but now she doesn't have to. The Gu family has such a brother who has attracted the attention of all the dignitaries and the royal family, and her status is not as good as it was 30 years ago, so she has nothing to be afraid of.

The secret has been hidden for more than 30 years, and if it is to be revealed, it will be revealed long ago. How can it be possible to wait until more than 30 years later, and even if it is revealed, who else in this mansion can shake her son's position?Chen shi was quite disapproving.

Gao Mama replied: "Master, this old servant knows how to do it, and this time I will definitely do it cleanly." As long as the whole family disappears, no one will be able to keep this secret.

"Well, Yunzhu, I can rest assured that you can do things. Let's keep the father and son for now, and let them be proud for a few days." Chen said with a sneer, dare to threaten her?She'll let these pariahs know that there's a life and there's no life back

"Yes, master." Madam Gao had no sympathy. If they hadn't appeared, the master would have forgotten about that family. Maybe they could still live well. They shouldn't be so greedy.

"Ma'am, Uncle is back." The maid outside reminded loudly.

Mrs. Chen winked at Gao Mama, Gao Mama retreated cleverly, and then the servants rushed in, and after a while, Uncle Nan Ping strode in.

Mrs. Chen knew the person next to her pillow very well. Seeing Uncle Nanping's expression, she asked with concern: "Who is this who offended Uncle and made him angry?"

"Who else? Isn't that bastard surnamed Feng." Uncle Nan Ping scolded angrily.

Chen comforted her and said: "Uncle, why should you have the same knowledge as that kind of vulgar person who can't get on the stage? By the way, Xian'er's teacher sent someone to say that Xian'er's essays have made great progress this time, and Ya'er has also been rejected. Concubine Li called her into the palace and asked Ya'er to stay in the palace for two more days."

When Mrs. Chen mentioned the two grandchildren, Uncle Nan Ping suddenly smiled, and he talked about Jiang Xian and Jiang Ya with Mrs. Chen.

Once the three days passed, it was the Grand Ceremony of Passing on Lu, announcing the results of the palace examination. The first three were the No. [-] scholar, the second place, and the third flower, and the second best were given Jinshi backgrounds, and the third best were from the same Jinshi background. Jian Dong's ranking in the palace examination was not different from the general examination Big, so ranked second, Jian Dong himself is quite satisfied with this result.

On such an occasion, the No. [-] Scholar, No. [-], and Tanhua are naturally the focus of attention. However, some officials present focused on the other person and pointed at him.

"Master Feng, who was the one you were talking about that day? Needless to say, his appearance is indeed somewhat similar to Uncle Nanping's, and his age is almost the same as that of Uncle Nanping's eldest son."

"There are similarities between people, who said that if they look alike, they are related by blood?"

"Mr. Feng, what do you think?" Someone next to him suggested, because everyone knows that Feng Yiliang is a stingy guy, never afraid of troubles, but he thinks things are not big enough. Among them, military officers are not very interested in the imperial examinations for the selection of civil servants. It is far better to watch Lively and refreshing.

"It doesn't matter what I think, what matters is what Uncle Nan Ping thinks, you wait, I'll go find that Jiang, let him open his eyes and take a good look." Feng Yiliang is really not afraid of things, pick up Sleeves moved towards Uncle Nan Ping and walked to the other side. He Xiyu said something to Gu Min who was beside him, but he didn't respond. Turning around, he saw him staring at something in a daze and coughing lightly: " Brother Gu? What is Brother Gu looking at?"

Gu Min was called back to his senses, turned his head to look at He Xiyu and said: "I ran into Feng Yiliang the day before yesterday, and he said that Uncle Nan Ping had an illegitimate son who was in the Jinshi of this department. I just saw that Jinshi of the new department, and I was a little dazed."

"Who is this person's name?" Could it be the father of his nephew's savior? He paid attention to the new scholar named Jian Dong when he called the roll before. He was asked to take care of this person named Jian Dong several times, and at first he didn't understand what he said in the open and in the dark, but when he saw him, he couldn't help but feel a little bit drummed in his heart. It couldn't be a coincidence.

"My surname is Jian and my name is Dong. She is a second-class Jinshi." Gu Min couldn't help but take another look.

He Xiyu's eyelids twitched, because he thought of what his son had mentioned occasionally, which he had long forgotten, but today in this hall, it suddenly popped up in his mind again, his son said, Yunzhang's sweetheart and the Gu family The brothers look alike, He Xiyu felt that he had discovered a big secret by accident, and his nephew only gave him a few plausible reminders, if the nephew was right in front of his eyes, he would really want to grab him and shake him hard , can you speak more clearly.

Jian Dong and Jian Leyang, the father and son, the father looks like Uncle Nan Ping, and the son looks like the Gu family, so you don't need to check He Xiyu to be sure that Jian Dong is a descendant of the Jiang family and the Gu family, so who is he? Do you need to say anything about your child?He Xiyu let out a "hiss" in pain, and this time he finally tore off a few beards, which made his heart ache.

"Brother He, what's wrong with you?" Gu Min asked with concern when he heard the voice.

He Xiyu didn't care about the beard that was pulled off, and looked at Gu Min sympathetically. The Nanping uncle's house is really unkind. It has kept the Gu family in the dark for more than 30 years. Thinking of his nephew, he really can't stand by and watch this matter, let alone The brother of the Jian family is kind to his nephew and the He family, so after thinking about it, he pulls Gu Min aside and whispers.

"Gu Min, tell me honestly, if your aunt and her flesh and blood encountered anything in the Jiang family, would you and the Gu family not bother?"

Gu Min didn't quite understand the words: "Brother He, what's the meaning of this? She is now the wife of the Jiang family, so what does she have to do with my Gu family? Her child has no contact with the Gu family."

At the time of the big wedding, the Gu family only gave a congratulatory gift, because they had torn their skins and cut off contact with each other before, and it was just because of the blood of the Gu family on the daughter of the Jiang family, so this gift was not considered a gift. Bo, it's just that he was brought up by the Jiang family, and he looks down on the Gu family.

In terms of blood relationship, she is his own cousin, but Gu Min only has a sense of strangeness and no affection.

But the new Jinshi just now gave him a very strange feeling. Although he was born like that surnamed Jiang, he didn't dislike him.

He Xiyu was worried for the Gu family. It's one thing whether to go or not, but it's another thing to be tricked by the Jiang family. He didn't believe that the Gu family knew the truth and could remain indifferent: "You don't think it's strange, the Jiang family back then, I've seen it too, do you think she looks like the Jiang family or the Gu family? This Xinke Jinshi surnamed Jian should be about the same age as the Jiang family's daughter. Don't you think it's weird for someone with such a face?"

Gu Min is not a stupid person, no matter how he listens, he feels that He Xiyu's words have something to say, is this reminding him that there is something wrong with the background of the Jiang family's daughter?And the Xinke who was surnamed Jian just now had the same problem.

"Brother He, do you know something?"

"Brother Gu, it's not that I don't want to talk about it, but that there are some things that you, the Gu family, have to figure out on your own. I just want to remind you to be careful about Nanping uncle's mansion." He Xiyu felt that he had said enough, waved his hands and left He went out, leaving Gu Min alone.

Gu Min can't stop thinking about it. He Xiyu can't be aimless. This is related to the bloodline of the Nanping uncle's family. Although the Gu family gave up on the current uncle's wife, it doesn't mean that the Nanping uncle's mansion can deceive the Gu family on the matter of blood. .Although his father was angry with his aunt's behavior at the beginning, he knew that to that cousin, who was also his father's niece, although she was not close on the surface, in private, his father still took care of her because of blood relationship.

Thinking that everything might be fake, Gu Min couldn't be angry, and couldn't stay any longer, so he found an excuse and retreated first, hurried home, and as soon as he got home, he got into the old man's room and closed the door to say After a long time, the roar of the old man came out.

Back in the main hall, Uncle Nan Ping saw Feng Yiliang who had come here again, and felt that he was very rich and unreasonable, and said angrily: "I don't have time to mess with you, you don't want to talk nonsense about Feng, I just don't care You, don't get too close."

"Yo drink, is Master Uncle angry? Could it be that Uncle himself is guilty? What kind of face did you make when you first proposed to the Gu family, but when you turned around, you turned your back on him? The Gu family treated you very well, the Jiang family. , but how did your] Jiang family treat the Gu family? Maybe you got a child who didn’t know where to pretend to be born by a girl from the Gu family, and treated a child born in a concubine’s room as a treasure, and even made him a prince.”

Hearing Feng's nonsense, Uncle Nanping was so angry that he punched him. How could Feng Yiliang wait to be beaten, so in the corner, the two began to scuffle, with a group of persuading and fighting beside them. Yes, fortunately, at this time, Xinke Jinshi was led by the number one scholar to beat horses and parade through the streets. Otherwise, they would not be stunned to see this scene, and maybe the first impression of entering the officialdom will be spoiled.
