After Shao Song

Chapter 195

Chapter 195
In February of the 23rd year of Jianyan's reign, he went to Shanyin, Yuezhou.

Spring has always come early in Jiangnan, the grass is growing and orioles are flying, and the fields and countryside are full of life. However, the main street near Xianning Bridge is completely blank.

Without him, Lu Zai, the eldest son of the Lu family in Yuezhou, died of illness.Although the land in Shanyin County has been equalized, the Lu family has been officials for generations, has countless wealth, and more importantly, has a large number of talents.

Lu Zai's younger brother Lu Mi retired as the minister of Guanglu Temple, and his son Lu You was a representative of the Jianyan Dynasty who "voted his pen to join the army". As an official's beloved minister, at the age of 24, he was transferred from the commander of the imperial camp Zuojun to The Vice-President of the Privy Council's Staff Department accepted the decree.

Although it is inevitable to observe mourning for three years, Jian is a figure in the heart of the emperor, and he has the admiration of his consort Yue Yun, deputy commander of the Zuo Army Wang Shixiong, and big bosses such as Han Shizhong and Hu Yin. He will definitely have a bright future in the future. In such a situation Next, who can not come to the funeral to show their face and express their condolences!

Besides, a funeral is such a great place to make friends. As long as you don't laugh and just socialize and build relationships, it's perfect.

However, there are often no perfect things, and the person who brought imperfection to this funeral turned out to be Lu Zai's widow, Mrs. Lu Tang.

Ordinarily, Mrs. Tang was not a country girl. She even came from a famous family and was the granddaughter of the former Prime Minister Tang Jie. But such a person actually started fighting with her daughter-in-law in front of her niece and niece's son-in-law who came to pay their respects. There was nothing unpleasant about it. They all came out and gained insights for many people.

When Lu You's psychological quality was strong enough, he came to the front office to adjust and apologize. Zhao Shicheng, the general judge of Haizhou who had already seen that his future was no weaker than his, pulled his wife, Lu You's cousin Tang Wan, out with a dark face.

After not seeing each other for several years, the once little person became more and more beautiful, with picturesque features and cheeks as sweet as snow. Even though he came to commemorate his uncle, he was wearing a crow-green gown, but he still couldn't hide the beauty of the country.

It's just that apart from her beautiful appearance, her complexion is indeed not very good.

Just based on the words Tang syndrome said when he acted out, it's a wonder that he got better.

Lu You roughly understood the cause and effect, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "My cousin is angry, it's all because You married an unworthy wife, and my mother is also in a state of confusion because of my father's sudden death. It is definitely not the intention to disrespect a virtuous couple. Please be considerate of your relatives." For love, don’t be on the same level as her.”

Zhao Shicheng sneered and said: "Lu Chengzhi always has a relative. I, Mr. Zhao, have lived for almost 30 years, and this is the first time I have seen such a relative, such an aunt. How can a wife win the favor of a noble concubine and Jie Yu?" As a guest, why don't you intercede for your father and let him become an official again? It has been more than [-] years since Jianyan was established. You are either eminent officials or officials in the imperial court. I would like to ask, when did the official family allow women to participate in politics? "

As soon as these words came out, the people who came over after hearing the news and wanted to save some dignity for the Lu family were immediately in an uproar. What is this?Your man can't be an official. Who can complain? In the first year of Jianyan, the court was in a difficult situation. At that time, Liu Jizheng, a senior official in the west of Beijing, appointed him as a deputy envoy for transfer and built a companion capital in Nanyang. He originally agreed and heard that the Jin army went south. Liu Ji was so angry that he was so angry that he thought he had lost his integrity and warned him many times that he was not allowed to be appointed as an official.

Let me add here, later Liu Ji became the prime minister, and he still served for more than ten years. You said that under this premise, even the Zhao Guan family would not embarrass his beloved minister for the sake of a person with ideological problems, so you said Lu Zai had no choice but to give up his official career in his prime years. He watched his younger brothers and even his sons become officials one after another, while he himself changed from the eldest son of the eldest son to a being like a thief guarding the house.That's why when a talent reaches middle age, he dies in depression.

But to put it bluntly, what does this have to do with Tang Wan and his wife?

But Tang's family just went crazy and cursed her niece for being a loser and killing her own master.

Listen to the logic of this statement. Can my niece kill her uncle?I'm afraid you're not crazy.

Not to mention others, Lu You himself thought so unfilially.

But Tang's family didn't think so. It is said that Lu You and Tang Wan were childhood sweethearts when they were young. At that time, the south was stable, and the adults of the two families also joked about planning a baby marriage for them. But the problem is that both parties and their parents agreed, and Tang's family was the only one. People find this niece distasteful in every way, and find fault with her at every turn.

In the 11th year of Jianyan's reign, Lu You failed in the imperial examination. Because his family was wealthy, he continued his studies at Yanjing Imperial College. At that time, the two families had a tacit understanding and were waiting to exchange for Gengtie.But Tang's obsession didn't know where it came from. It must have been Tang Wan's insistence on Lu You that made her son neglect his studies and fail the exam.

Now Tang's mother said nothing. Even if she couldn't become an in-law, how could an aunt treat her niece like this? She was crying and clamoring to choose another son-in-law for her daughter. Tang Bin originally felt sorry for his nephew, but he also hoped that Lu You could have it. It was a good future, but who knew that Tang would go too far as he talked about it. After all, he had been a son of an official for several generations and could no longer endure it.

In 13, Yu Jianyan carried back all the things sent by the Lu family, threatened to invite his sister and brother-in-law to have a drink when he hired his son-in-law, and then left without looking back.When Tang Wan was about to become her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Tang disliked her in every possible way.However, the Tang family took the initiative to not want Lu You, and Mrs. Tang was even more furious. In her eyes, there was absolutely nothing wrong with her son from head to toe. Her brother and sister-in-law should be rushing to fawn over you, but it was just a temporary setback in the imperial examination. They were picky and immediately spread the word in the circle of ladies that Tang Wan disliked poverty and loved wealth.

Now Lu Zai finally understood why the in-laws would rather break off the relationship than hurt the relationship between the relatives. He quickly took on the posture of the head of the family and suppressed his wife: If you keep doing this, you will really have no relatives, and your son will be in trouble.

But how could the Tang family be afraid of Lu Zai, whose official career was over? The husband and wife quarreled and cut scars on her husband. It is hard to say that Lu Zai died young in middle age and was not angry with his wife.Especially after their son Lu You won the martial arts examination and followed King Qin of Han to destroy Jiaozhi, the Tang family became even more proud.

The only thing that made her unhappy was that Tang Wan's husband, Zhao Shicheng, also served in the army, so Tang Wan got a royal commission before he was 20 years old, and her son was still a bachelor. So she took a magnifying glass and searched among the Jiangnan nobles, and finally found him. She became a daughter-in-law with a Wang who suited her aesthetics very well.

This Wang family is actually not as good as the Tang family, but the Tang family has heard of her deeds. Yi'an layman Li Qingzhao once wanted to pass on his life's talents to this handsome little girl because he had no children. As a result, the Wang family said: "Talent and virtue are not a woman's business."

Ms. Tang believes that such a law-abiding person would be the ideal daughter-in-law.

But obviously Lu You doesn't think so. What this versatile civil and military man needs is a wife who can communicate with him about art and current situation. What kind of relationship can a chicken and a duck have? Anyway, he is busy at work. Since you like it, let him stay at home. Your daughter-in-law will accompany you.

So much so that after many years of marriage, Lu You's only son was born to a concubine.But now that Lu Zai has passed away, Tang Wan is happily married and no longer cares about the harm caused by his aunt, especially since Zhao Shicheng and Lu Youhe had some friendship, and they came to express their condolences together.

When Mrs. Tang saw that Tang Wan was still so beautiful and the mother of three children, she immediately blamed her son's marital misfortune on her. First, she made sarcastic remarks but was countered by Tang Wan who no longer wanted to please her. Then she started to He cursed loudly and didn't care at all that it was his late father's funeral.

Lu You had a splitting headache. He was about to say something to stop the situation from getting worse when he suddenly heard Tang Wan say: "Cousin, my aunt was rude to me. Why do you only apologize to my family members?"

Lu You's heart trembled, and he quickly averted his eyes, not wanting Tang Wan to say next: "You just think that I am my husband's vassal, and my aunt is my elder. Just say a few words. Don't ruin the relationship between you men." Your feelings will be better, right?"

Zhao Shicheng said: "Ma'am, you and I are married, insulting you is insulting me, Zhao can't even protect you, pretending to be a man."

Lu You just stared blankly at Zhao Shicheng and Tang Wan leaving. Tang looked at her son as if he was possessed by a demon, and finally remembered what was most important, and said hurriedly: "Son, my mother is not worth it for you. This little bitch can't keep her will."

"Auntie," Lu You finally broke out, "My cousin and Zhao Tongpan are married, and everyone in heaven and earth can testify. What nonsense are you talking about? You've been here for a long time. Okay, Mrs. Wang, go take care of it and wait for me." After my father is buried, we will go to Yanjing to observe mourning."

I don't know how to be laughed at locally.

The night before leaving, Lu You suddenly wrote a poem in a daze:

Red crispy hands, yellow rice wine, and willows all over the city's spring palace walls.The east wind is evil, and the love is weak.Many years separated, my mind full of sorrow.Wrong, wrong, wrong!

Spring is as old as before, people are empty and thin, and tears are red and silky.Peach blossoms fall, Xianchi Pavilion.Although the Shanmeng is here, the Jinshu is hard to entrust.Mo, mo, mo!

But after finishing writing, his heart seemed empty, and the dream of the Red River became more and more real.

Butterfly Dream Zhuang Zhou, what is true?

 Recently, someone suggested that I sort out the time clues, but it’s really beyond my capabilities. Can everyone wait?Or just read it purely as a novel.
