Chastity Layman

Duke of Qi.

The envoy had just left when he came to read the emperor's edict, and the order of Mrs. Qi of the Cui family was deprived of it.

Watching the emissary leave, he specially conveyed the will of the sage. The Duke of Qi in Luoyang has been rewarded by the sage to the new Duke of Qi, Qin Jun, the grandson of Qin's patriarch, and Qin Xun and others from the Cui family are restricted to move out before dark.

"That prostitute has become Mrs. Qi, and the prostitute has become Duke Qi, oh my God!"

Cui cried and cried.

After her brother Cui Dunli was dismissed from the position of Zuo Pushe and her husband's adopted son Lai Ji was dismissed from the position of Right servant She, she had been feeling uneasy. Following her husband's other adopted sons, Pei Xingjian, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and Prince Shaozhan When Heng Ye was both dismissed, she couldn't eat or sleep all the time.

But the more I am afraid of what will happen.

Finally, when the messenger arrived, he still brought the most feared bad news.

The noble concubine Shufei and her sister were deposed as common people for the crime of witchcraft, and their mother and brother were also implicated.

Everyone in the mansion felt that the end was coming.

The daughter-in-law Changsun came to comfort her mother-in-law, but Cui slapped her and fell to the ground, her face was swollen and the corners of her mouth were bleeding.

"It's you, the bastard, it's your eldest grandson's family that has implicated our Qin family and Cui family."

The Changsun family got up silently, stepped aside, and did not dare to say a word. The Changsun family used to be a relative of the emperor, and she was the queen's niece. She was married to Qin Qiong's son, and she was already considered a married woman. But this marriage was not happy from the very beginning, Cui has always disliked that she is not a woman with five surnames.

Although the eldest grandson accepted the marriage under the order of his parents, he found out that although his mother-in-law was a daughter of five names, she was sometimes not easy to get along with. But the difference is too far, this is a man who obeys his mother's orders everywhere, who is not good at writing or martial arts, but has a bad temper and bad personality.

After being married to the Qin family for many years, this little daughter-in-law has never raised her head. Cui's body is very healthy, and she is still strong in her seventies. Qin Xun is physically weak, mainly because he has taken in endless concubines over the years, and the family has also taken in many maidservants and maids and bought a lot of concubines. He has no other skills, but Chang'an is famous for his ability to give birth.

Can the bones of the body not be broken? I am in my forties, and I will sweat when I move a little.

Before her father's accident, Qin Xun treated her well. Although she didn't have any feelings, her life was as smooth as water, and Cui Shi was also polite on the surface, but since her father's accident and the family was implicated, Cui Shi completely lost her good looks towards her. , and even talked about divorcing his wife.

If Cui Dunli hadn't been dismissed as Prime Minister, the eldest grandson would have been dismissed.

Looking at Cui's crying now, Changsun's standing in a corner actually felt a kind of joy in his heart, your Qin family also has today.

These twenty years of life had already made her numb.

The only thing he couldn't care less about was actually those sons and daughters. They had already grown up, and some of them were quite promising.

But who knows that the fire is now burning on the Qin family.

Cui was still scolding there, not scolding Qin Xun for being incompetent, nor dared to scold the emperor, but repeatedly scolded Qin Jun for being raised by a concubine to steal the title and family business, and later scolded Qin Lang, maybe he was behind the scenes. and so on.

Scolding.

The six brothers Qin Xun and Qin Li and the two nephews of Qin Jun and Qin Lun came back.

Qin Jun also just got the decree again. The emperor took the Duke of Qi from Qin Xun's collection and gave it to him. When Qin Xun was listening to the decree, Qin Xun was also on the side, and Qin Jun was a little embarrassed.

In fact, Qin Jun doesn't care about this house. As Qin Lang's eldest son, although he is a concubine, he is highly valued by Qin Lang. He was granted the title of Wu'an Prefecture in his early years, and he also got a lot of money and a lot of manpower, so he was considered half-hearted early on. To set up his own business, Qin Lang let him manage it by himself. Many years have passed, and I have a lot of property.

What's more, even if the emperor didn't give him the titles of Qi Guogong and Shifeng Wu'an Governor, Qin Jun himself is Wei Guogong, Shifeng Wu'an Prefecture Governor and has a large territory in Luzon.

In Luoyang City, Qin Jun already had a mansion of his own, and there was also a manor in the suburbs.

Now it seems that he is here to rob Dazong's property.

Especially as soon as you came in, you just heard Cui Shi was still yelling and cursing.

Cui Shi, who is in her seventies, is well maintained, but at this time, she is no different from a shrew village girl who is cursing at the street, and everyone around her dare not persuade her.

Cui saw Qin Jun and his party coming in.

Immediately scolded more fiercely.

She questioned Qin Jun.

"How do you have the face to grab a large number of titles and estates?"

Qin Jun saluted Cui Shi.

"Grandson never dares to have such unreasonable thoughts. Grandson was shocked to find out about this at the court meeting today. I will write a letter to the sage when I turn around, asking the sage to take back his will..."

However, Qin Li couldn't understand Cui's family. He used to be angry with Cui's family in the mansion, but now he is a middle-aged man who has made a name for himself on the battlefield. It's more free and easy.

"Mistress, the imperial decree is an imperial order, and an imperial order cannot be disobeyed."

The sixth son, Qin Gui, said unceremoniously, "At present, our Qin family is troubled, but we must not give people a real excuse. Now Goro is just seizing the title and dismissing him. Don't make the situation worse. Think about the elders and grandsons. What is the end of the family now?"

Cui was overwhelmed by the words of the fourth and sixth.

Think about how grand the eldest grandson's family used to be, but it can be said to be extinct when it is said to be extinct. Now the eldest grandson Wuji and others have been killed, and the descendants of each family are scattered in Lingnan and other places.

The Qin family was also messed with without warning.

But my heart is indeed suffocating.

It's not easy for her, her husband died early, but her own sons are not capable, but the sons of concubines are more powerful than the other. Is it easy for her to manage such a big family as a widow?

The son is not capable, but at least the grandchildren are not bad, I only hope that they are pinned on them, who would have expected that such a thing would happen again, and even this house would not be able to be kept.

Qin Jundao, "The grandson's house in the city can be used to honor grandma..."

Before he finished speaking, he was spurned by Cui Shi, "The Qin family hasn't reached this point yet, so keep your house."

The Cui family did have the confidence. Back then, Qin Qiong left a large share of the family business, more than half of which was left to his son Qin Xun. In recent years, Qin Lang has always helped here, even Li Lizhi for more than 20 years. Come on, always give back a monthly payment to the people on the side of Duke Qi's mansion.

This monthly money is quite a lot. For example, the Cui family pays 1,000 guan filial piety a month, and other wives and concubines, men and women also have it.

Although Qin Lang is not short of this little money, this kind of filial piety is rare.

In comparison, the Qin Lang Gang led the Qi Mansion to run the industry, which brought them more benefits.

Qin Xun could take all the daughters of the five surnames and seven clans as concubines if he was not successful in literature or martial arts. Even if they were concubine daughters of Xiaozhi's side clan, it was mainly because the betrothal money given each time was large, and it was tens of millions. But the only one.

The Qin Li brothers came here because they were worried that the Cui family would embarrass Qin Jun, so they told the old lady that something happened to the Qin family, and only Qin Lang's branch was not implicated, so if they want to avoid being thrown into trouble, they will end up in a mess. Just like the eldest grandson and his family ended up, don't fight among themselves at this time.

The emperor gave the Qi mansion to Qin Jun, so he followed the order and immediately vacated it.

Don't even have any complaints.

"That's the way it is? You brothers, don't you have the slightest ability to deal with it?"

Qin Li heheed twice, "Miss, what kind of world is going on now, can't you be such a shrewd person, can't see the reasons behind these things? Who dares to fight against it now? Let's go along and find opportunities slowly."

They knew the real reasons behind these things very well, so they didn't even think about writing a letter to argue about these things, and kept a low profile first.

If you are beaten, stand at attention.

Let's wait until the limelight passes.

Everything can only be pinned on Qin Lang.

That was the last hope of the Qin family. If Qin Lang could carry it, the Qin family could make a comeback. If Qin Lang couldn't hold it, then naturally the nest would be overwhelmed.

"Auntie and fifth younger brother try to stay at home during this time and don't go out, and try to be careful when speaking. The outer courtyard and the inner house control people's mouths, and don't spread random comments. I will spend a few days with Liulang, and first protect the fifth brother. Mother and the others are going to Fangzhou, and after they are settled, they may first go to Lusong Sanlang's house, Dongdu's house, and let them be quiet for a while."

The sixth child looked at the fifth sister-in-law who shrank aside, and couldn't help saying to Cui, "We also heard that Wu Lang and his sister-in-law seemed to be having some troubles. Now at this time, don't make any more trouble. The sister-in-law is pitiful enough. Father and brother are all in trouble, how can we bully others at this time? My sister-in-law has been in our house for so many years, and she is our own family, so we have to take care of her even more at this time."

The fourth child glanced at Qin Xun who was about to speak, and interrupted him politely, "If Wu Lang thinks it's wrong, why not let a few young people in the family go south with us to protect my sister-in-law, who happens to be going to Luzon Let's get together with my sister, and my nephews also happened to go to Luzon to study hard."

Cui looked at Changsun.

The daughter-in-law here also has a sister who is a compatriot of the same mother as a concubine in Qin Langna, Lu Song.

"At this time, don't go out as a guest, stay at home, and take care of your husband and children at home." Cui said to her daughter-in-law.

Changsun stepped forward and answered yes.

Cui looked at Qin Li and Qin Jun's uncles and nephews, and at the wimpy look of his own son Qin Xun, and couldn't help sighing.

"Order to go down, simply tidy up, and then move out quickly to make room for the newly appointed Duke of Qi."

The Duke of Qi's mansion is very large, and there are thousands of servants. Naturally, this family has a lot of property, but Cui also knows that it is a sensitive period, so it can't be too ostentatious.

So I simply packed up my clothes, soft clothes, etc., and then hurried away. As for all the utensils and furniture in the mansion, and even many servants and servants, etc., they were all left behind.

Of course, some things are equivalent to being given to Qin Jun, and some things are only temporarily stored here.

But even so, in the end when Cui took Qin Xun's eldest grandson and a group of grandchildren out of the mansion, after a simple tidying up, all the things in each house were fully loaded with four hundred large carriages, and they were discharged in a mighty manner. Long queue.

It attracted many people to look sideways.

The appearance of Duke Qi's mansion being kicked out of the house in such a hurry also made Mandongdu's emotions aroused by the students and scholars in Xuecheng at this time even stronger.

More and more people gathered in front of Luoyang Palace to petition the Holy Son of Heaven!
