After Rebirth, I Became a Powerful Minister’s Beloved

Chapter 222: Selling Nanyan into the Kiln

Xiao Yi greeted the old lady and stepped out of Songhe Courtyard.

But I saw a delicate little girl standing at the gate of the courtyard.

The sandalwood hair was combed into a delicate cloud bun, and the golden steps dangled by the ears, making it even more white, tender and delicate.

Yunyanfen's skirt is as light as a cloud, and her neck and collarbone are carved like white jade. She stands delicately and gracefully on a clump of hibiscus lace, her beauty is clean and graceful.

He said to He Ye: "It's early autumn, how can you let your lady wear so little? Go and get a big sleeve."

He Ye secretly thought, Lord Hou really cares about her young lady.

Every time they meet, they either send her to get the big sleeve or send her to get the cloak.

Fortunately, Lord Hou is a gentleman, even though he is a widow and a man alone, he would not do anything to the young lady.

She said yes respectfully, and went to get the big sleeve with a smile.

After He Ye left, Xiao Yi took a few steps forward and took Nan Baoyi's little hand.

He said, "Waiting for me?"

Nan Baoyi nodded, "I have something serious to talk to my second brother about."

The two walked side by side to Chaowenyuan, Nan Baoyi was a little embarrassed, "This trip to Zhennan Temple, I exposed Cheng Taishou's crimes in public, and I also have merits. When playing the chapter, don't forget to add these two credits."

Xiao Yi looked down at her.

It turns out that this little girl is here to ask for credit.

He pursed his smile and responded lightly.

Nan Baoyi lowered her eyelashes, feeling even more shy.

She is so eager to seek merit, and she doesn't know if she will be laughed at by her second brother, laughing at her eagerness for quick success...

She pondered for a while, and added: "Second brother, Cheng Taishou and Xia Canjun colluded with grain merchants to drive up rice prices, and with monks to ruin my reputation. In the process of exposing them, you are the first one. I didn't take your credit. mean."

Xiao Yi didn't care.

What's the point of giving her all the credit?

"We're all family, Jiaojiao doesn't need to be polite to me."

Nan Baoyi bit her lip, staring at the toe of the embroidered shoe as she walked.

The second brother probably regards her as a doting sister,

That's why they are said to be family.

But……

She doesn't want to be treated like a sister.

Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Suihan came over excitedly, waving his folding fan, "Gu Chongshan relied on his status as an imperial envoy to bring the Cheng family and the Xia family together! Prefect Cheng and Xia Canjun are going to be exiled for three thousand miles together today, official Jin Everyone in the city is watching! Don't dawdle, go out and watch together!"

out of the house.

Shi Yan had already booked a private seat in a restaurant along the street.

Nan Baoyi pushed open the window, and the people on the long street rubbed their shoulders, excitedly watching a group of soldiers coming from a distance.

The soldiers escorted two prison wagons.

Xia Canjun and Cheng Taishou stood awkwardly in the prison car, wearing prison uniforms and disheveled hair.

Countless people threw rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at them, dripping all over their bodies.

"Bah, collusion between officials and businessmen, corruption and bribery, just because the Marquis of Jingxi hindered you from driving up grain prices, you are going to burn down all his granaries! Just like you, how dare you become an official?!"

"Exactly! In the midst of the severe drought, Marquis Jingxi promised that Hong's rice shop would never increase the price. He really thought of us common people! It would be great if all the officials in the world were like Marquis Jingxi!"

Nan Baoyi propped his elbows on the window sill, watching with his small face in his hands.

Hearing those compliments, she couldn't help bending Danfeng's eyes.

In the previous life, the powerful minister did not have such a good reputation.

The courtiers called him a treacherous minister who played with power, and the common people called him a corrupt official who brought disaster to the country and the people.

When the carriage drives well on the streets of Shengjing City, people will throw rotten vegetable leaves.

When she first moved into Chaowenyuan, she thought about how to repay him.

She is willing to use the court secrets accumulated in her previous life to pave a splendid avenue of fame and fortune for him, to make him admired by thousands of people, and to make him famous in history!

Now the move to defeat Cheng Taishou was a mistake, which helped the second elder brother's reputation.

In this life, the second elder brother will never be scolded as a traitor and a corrupt official again!

Nan Baoyi looked back, his eyes sparkling, "Second brother, everyone is praising your virtuous name, are you happy?"

Xiao Yi was kneeling on the woven mat, drinking with Jiang Suihan.

Last year's bayberry wine was refreshing and sweet in the throat.

He raised his eyelids and replied lazily: "Happy."

He doesn't care about those who are famous or not.

He was a bad guy through and through.

Kind of bad to the bone.

Otherwise, how could he care about his own sister?

But since Nan Jiaojiao likes it, it seems that he is not bad as a good person.

On the long street, the two prison cars gradually moved away.

Nan Baoyi watched with interest.

Cheng Hui's head was full of rotten vegetable leaves, his pale hair was flying in the autumn wind, as if he had aged twenty years.

In the previous life, when the second uncle came to Cheng's mansion to pick him up, it was Cheng Hui who ordered the servants to beat the second uncle with sticks.

Later, the second uncle was seriously injured, and eventually died.

Cheng Hui, on the other hand, sat firmly on the prefect of Shu County, so he shouldn't live in a carefree way.

In this life, his official position was taken away and he was exiled for three thousand miles. The rest of his life was completely ruined.

And Gu Chongshan also ordered that descendants of the Cheng family and Xia family within five generations were prohibited from becoming officials.

While Nan Baoyi was happy, he suddenly became curious.

I don't know how Cheng De, Nan Yan and Huang are doing now?

At this time, Cheng Mansion.

Most of the servants and maidservants have dispersed, only a few loyal ones are still serving in the mansion.

Cheng De's proud son of heaven, he can't be counted, and he will be reduced to this!

It was forbidden to become an official within the Five Dynasties, so why did he read so many books and study abroad in Shengjing City for so many years? !

He couldn't get sick, his face was like gold paper, and he was extremely haggard.

Mrs. Huang stood by the sick bed, took care of him in her clothes, and shed tears all day long.

Her husband was exiled, and her son was seriously ill. This big family is over, completely over...

She looked at Cheng De's coughing appearance, and felt distressed and resentful in her heart.

After a while, she said coldly, "Go and drag Nan Yan over here!"

The two women dragged Nan Yan over.

Nan Yan was naked and covered in blood. She was beaten terribly.

She had a very difficult time these days, and Mrs. Huang vented all her anger on her, not only locked her in the firewood shed, but also dragged her here at every turn, and told the wives to beat and kick her!

She cried and grabbed the corner of Huang's skirt, and begged with tears streaming down her face: "Mother-in-law, Yan'er knows her mistake, Yan'er really knows her mistake! Please read it for the sake of helping you win favor in the past, and forgive Yan'er." This time! Can you let Yaner go home? Please let Yaner go home!"

"Excuse me?"

Mrs. Huang kicked her away and gritted her teeth, "If you weren't stupid and used that nursery rhyme to deal with Nan Baoyi, how could things have turned out like this?! You lost the position of the master and ruined Erlang's future. I will forgive you , who will spare me?!"

Her daughter, Cheng Zaixi, was equally angry.

She is fourteen years old this year, and she had already agreed on her in-law's family, and she just waited until next year to get married, but unexpected changes happened to her family, which ruined her marriage!

Cheng Zaixi said viciously: "Mother, it's better to sell Nanyan into a kiln! Let her be abused by men for the rest of her life, so that my daughter can get angry!"
