The titles of the Marquis of Xuanping have been passed down for several generations, and they have made great achievements in the early years. However, their descendants are unworthy. Starting from the generation of the old Marquis, the Marquis of Xuanping has completely withdrawn from the court and only focused on wealth and honor. Idle people.

Marquis Xuanping was an honest and honest person. He always smiled at everyone he met and was generous with his actions. He had an excellent reputation in the capital. However, today, he was raided without any warning.

It is estimated that the entire capital was alarmed at this moment.

It happened that the tea soup was also excellent at this moment, so Sun Jingke raised his hand and poured himself a cup: "Some time ago, His Majesty gave Shen Chuan the task of inspecting the granary. Shen Chuan himself did not leave the capital, so he only sent When his subordinates went out, I didn’t know how he checked. Anyway, he left Beijing and went to Dingzhou half a month ago.

It is said that a Yu Si in Dingzhou stole the grain from the granary and sold it. After interrogation, it was found out that Yu Si was actually a branch of the Zheng family of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and [-]% to [-]% of the silver he earned from selling the grain went into Xuanpinghou Mansion!
Shen Chuan reported the matter to His Majesty as soon as he came back yesterday. He went into the palace again this morning. When he came out again, he took the imperial edict and the forbidden army directly to the Xuanping Hou Mansion!

His Majesty issued an imperial edict to confiscate all the property of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and the family fled three thousand miles southwest... Tsk, tsk, I guess I will never be able to return to Beijing in my lifetime. "

It has been a long time since there has been such a big thing as a house raid in the capital. As soon as Sun Jingke heard about it, he hurried over to find Jiang Fuyue.

Jiang Fuyue lowered her eyes, poured herself a cup of tea, and said in a calm tone: "Food is the lifeblood of the country. This move by the Xuanping Marquis Mansion has shaken the country's foundation. It is just a sentence of exile, which is considered a light punishment."

Sun Jingke looked at her in surprise for a while, then thought about it carefully and said, "What you said...makes sense, but that's the Xuanping Hou Mansion!
...It's a pity that the legitimate daughter of the Zheng family is a concubine in the palace. If such a big thing happened to her mother's family, her life in the palace will be difficult in the future. "

A Marquis Mansion that has stood for so many years, even if it has withdrawn from the court, has a lot of human interests behind it, and it fell down unexpectedly.

Sun Jingke took a sip of tea and sighed: "I really can't tell that Shen Chuan, who is usually very easy-going, can be so neat and tidy with his actions! From the time he returned to Beijing to now, only two days have passed, and he has made a scene. Such a big thing!

He went to have tea with Xie Ziqi yesterday, as if nothing happened!This, this person’s thoughts are too deep..."

At this point, Sun Jingke couldn't even drink the tea.

Xie Ziqi knew that the person who had tea with him yesterday went to raid the Marquis's mansion today, and he was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out of his head.

Jiang Fuyue was not too surprised.

If he puts everything on his face and does things in a sloppy manner, how can he step into the position of a powerful minister and still sit firmly?

Jiang Fuyue raised her eyes and glanced at her: "The Xuanping Hou Mansion was raided, why are you so excited and why did you come all the way here?"

"Hey, I just want to watch the fun with you," Sun Jingke said, "Who would have thought that you didn't react at all, it's boring!"

After a pause, Sun Jingke said again: "How come the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, who seems so honest and responsible on weekdays, can commit such a big thing behind his back? He is so courageous!"

Jiang Fuyue said nothing.

How could she know.

After chatting for a while, Sun Jingke was about to stand up and leave.

Jiang Fuyue glanced at the dripper in the room and said, "It's already this time, why are you going back? Why don't you just eat at my place? Madam Lin has also researched some delicious medicinal dishes and asked her to make them. Do you want to try it?"

"Oh, no!" Sun Jingke suddenly became nervous, "Xie Ziqi is waiting for me outside, we..."

Today, four years ago, was the day she and Xie Ziqi got married. They made an appointment to have dinner at Xiaozhulou at noon and to go out for a walk in the city together in the afternoon.

Jiang Fuyue rolled her eyes at her: "Young Master Xie is waiting for you outside. You are still chatting with me here. Go quickly!"

This heart is also really big.

Sun Jingke nodded, stood up and left without talking nonsense.

Jiang Fuyue looked away and sighed quietly.

The raid on the Xuanpinghou Mansion was just the beginning.

The energy of this powerful minister is more than this.But the situation in the capital has nothing to do with her.

Now that Mrs. Zhou has entered the city, the teahouse has opened. Let's wait and see how the teahouse's business goes in a few days, and then we can figure out what to do next.

-

After lunch, Jiang Fuyue and Jiang Fuyao went back to sleep.

Halfway through his sleep, he was suddenly woken up.

Guyu also looked sleepy: "It's the people from Songshouyuan. They said that the old lady wanted to lecture, so they not only called the lady, but also the Marquis and the two young masters."

Being woken up from her nap and being unable to keep her eyelids open were trivial matters. She just felt that her head was dizzy.

This feeling did not ease until I was dressing up and changing my clothes and walking all the way to Songshouyuan.

When Jiang Fuyue arrived at the door, she happened to meet Marquis Anyuan.

The moment he saw her, Marquis Anyuan woke up from his nap.

Jiang Fuyue is wearing a white pleated skirt with large pine green sleeves, and her hair is rolled up loosely. There is no trace of the past rigidity in her dress. Instead, she exudes a leisurely and indifferent atmosphere, making her look very comfortable. .

Recently, Marquis Anyuan stopped running out and stayed at home. Only then did he realize how well the backyard was taken care of by Jiang Fuyue.

Now seeing Jiang Fuyue dressed like this again, her heart suddenly moved.

Jiang Fuyue didn't notice anything unusual about Marquis Anyuan, so she felt blessed, said hello and walked into the courtyard.

Behind her, Marquis Anyuan took a breath and then stepped up to follow her.

When they took their seats in the hall, Gu Liao and Gu Feng had already arrived.

Seeing Jiang Fuyue and Anyuanhou coming in one after another, they stood up and saluted, and then sat down after their elders took their seats.

As soon as everyone sat down, the old lady sitting at the head quickly said: "Did you know that the Xuanping Hou Mansion outside was raided?"

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone present had different expressions.

Marquis Anyuan was particularly surprised: "It was copied? How could it be possible? I just went out for a drink with Marquis Xuanping not long ago!"

Although Marquis Xuanping is slightly older than him, they have the same views on appreciating singing and dancing, so they always meet up to drink and listen to music together on weekdays, and they have a good relationship.

"What?!" When the old lady heard this, her face turned pale with fright, and her voice suddenly became sharp, "You are fine, why are you going out to drink with him! This is great, the Xuanping Hou Mansion has been raided, everything will be fine. What will we do if our family is implicated!"

The old lady became more and more frightened as she spoke, and her voice trembled.

"We just have a drink, we don't have much contact, don't worry, mother!" Anyuan Houhun comforted casually.

"Can I rest assured!" The old lady gritted her teeth, and her tone became darker for the first time when facing Anyuan Hou, "Don't go out and run away these days, just stay at home for me! Wait for this storm. After that, let’s talk again!”

"And you! You have to be extra careful these days!"

Everyone agreed one after another, each with their own perfunctory tone.

The old lady beat a few more words before telling everyone to go back. (End of chapter)
