I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 532
Chen's terrified and crying echoed in Ah Jing's night. Fortunately, Jiao's Mansion occupies a large area, and the nearest neighbor is far away. big case.

Maybe Mrs. Chen was afraid of the two elders, Zhifu Jiao and Mrs. Jiao, so she could only plop down and kneel on the ground, hugged Jiao Lianping's leg with both hands, and begged crying, "Sir, I am doing this for you. It's all for you!"

"For me?" As if hearing a big joke, Jiao Lianping looked coldly at the pale Chen family, who looked like a crazy woman, "Back when Yuanzhou came to visit the mansion, you disliked him from a poor family and let the servant They prepared guest rooms and meals, but in private they made people chew their tongues, ridiculed Yuan Zhou for coming to the Jiao Mansion to fight the autumn breeze, humiliated him as a sour scholar, and even framed him for stealing the furnishings in the guest room."

After Jiao Lianping knew the truth, he had already lost this classmate friend. After he returned home, he also became angry with Mrs. Chen and asked her to apologize.

But Mrs. Chen cried so much that she almost fainted, she kept saying that the servants in the mansion despised Yuanzhou for being poor, she didn't know all this, and after that she sold all the maids and wives away from a distance.

"Sir, that time I was lax in housekeeping, but I also sent someone to make an apology." Mrs. Chen wiped her tears, showing a delicate and aggrieved look.

It's a pity that Jiao Lianping has been used to seeing her tears over the years, and he snorted coldly, "Yes, you gave an apology, and asked the servants of the mansion to send a tray of silver with great fanfare, five taels of silver ingots, a total of ten. They also gave away food and clothing, and when they met someone, they said that the reception in the mansion was not good that day, which caused Yuanzhou to be wronged and left without saying goodbye, so the apology came."

This gift of money is not to make amends, but to humiliate a noble scholar, to make revenge!

Before Mrs. Chen could speak, Jiao Lianping said again: "The year before last, we held a literary meeting at the foot of the West Mountain, but we rescued Miss Zhao Jiasan by accident, but what did you do?"

Jiao Lianping later became a dandy, and it can be said that he was responsible for half of the reasons, but the other half of the reasons definitely came from Jiao Zhifu and the Chen family.

"But she was changing clothes in our carriage!" Chen's voice sharpened a little, and her originally delicate face instantly turned ferocious and fierce.

"It's a bright day and a big crowd. I also explained to you that Miss Zhao San's carriage overturned into a stream, and she fell into the water, so I had to borrow our carriage to change clothes, and she was already engaged at that time!"

Jiao Lianping closed his eyes to cover the pain in his eyes, and after a while, he stabilized his emotions and lingered at Mrs. Chen word by word like a knife, "You first went to Zhao's house under the pretense of visiting Miss Zhao San and humiliated her severely. Insulting her for being shameless, seducing a married man! He even threw ten taels of silver as a dowry on the spot, and asked Miss Zhao San to come to Jiao Mansion as a concubine."

"What?" Mrs. Jiao, who was sitting in the main seat, frowned suddenly. Back then, when Ping'er was going to discuss marriage, Mrs. Jiao had considered the Zhao family.

What Mrs. Jiao values ​​most is the upbringing of the Zhao family’s children. Girls and boys are enlightened at the age of four. Girls have to study until they get married, while boys have to pass the imperial examination. seek other careers.

Mrs. Jiao took a look at Mrs. Chen who was kneeling on the ground. She probably knew about it, so she had a grudge, so she took advantage of it.

"Mother, it's fine if that's the case." Jiao Lianping smiled wryly. It's not a big deal for a woman to be jealous, "but Mrs. Chen, she shouldn't have sent someone to Miss Zhao San's fiancé's house, and even bribed Miss Zhao San's side. The servant caused the other party to misunderstand and retreated."

Ms. Zhao San has a strong temper. Although the matter was suppressed in the end, she was also disheartened, and finally went to the Zhao family's hometown to become a monk.

Zhan Feiyu couldn't help but look at Jiao Lianping sympathetically when he heard this, he really couldn't see that Chen's actions were so vicious, and that he was able to force a girl from a good family to become a monk, probably because of the power of the Jiao family.

Ms. Zhao San may also know it, so she would rather sacrifice herself and avoid it from a distance, otherwise, with Chen's viciousness, maybe she will continue to take revenge.

Mrs. Chen didn't even need to do it herself. She was Jiao Lianping's wife, and she represented the prefect's mansion. As long as Mrs. Chen said something, there would naturally be people who curry favor with her and deal with the Zhao family.

If it was said that Zhifu Jiao still had a little bit of resentment at the beginning, but as Jiao Lianping narrated one by one, Zhifu Jiao's expression finally turned indifferent.

After all, the Chen family can do things like paying for murder, so it's not surprising that they would do all kinds of bullying things before.

"No, I was born as a member of the Jiao family, and I will die as a ghost of the Jiao family!" Shaking her head, Chen yelled frantically, but seeing Jiao Lianping's cold, emotionless eyes, Chen only felt her head buzzing. Can't help ridiculing.

"Msister, what you said so much is just to kick me away and pick another wife who can help you. You just dislike my Chen family's defeat, and there is no way to help your official career!"

Before Jiao Lianping could speak, Mrs. Chen suddenly turned her head to look at Mrs. Jiao, and said with a sneer, "Mother doesn't like me as a daughter-in-law since the day I entered the house. You treat the servants in the house better than me! You don't ask for help." Motivated, mother, not only did you not persuade me, but you also reprimanded me, telling me not to take care of my husband's affairs. You are useless, and you are crushed by a concubine. I will not let my husband and my son be suppressed by a concubine A bastard is suppressing it!"

Mrs. Jiao squinted her eyes halfway, completely ignoring Mrs. Chen who was talking crazily. After tonight, Mrs. Chen would only die of illness in Jiao's residence, and Mrs. Jiao at the Chen family's side would explain everything.

Wiping the tears off his face, Mrs. Chen once again looked at the unsmiling magistrate Jiao, "Father, you are in vain for being a scholar and an official appointed by the court. You spoiled your concubine and killed your wife. It's so ridiculous that you cultivate a lowly bastard! You don't even know the rules of aristocratic families." I forgot, but I will not forget that our eldest family is the direct branch, and my husband is the eldest son, so in the future this Jiaofu can only belong to my husband, it belongs to my son!"

"That's why you ordered people to kill Lianyu." Zhifu Jiao glanced at Zhao Yuan, who was on the ground with more breath and less breath.

On weekdays, the prefect Jiao rarely had contact with his daughter-in-law, and because of Jiao Lianping's incompetence, even if he heard something bad about the Chen family, the prefect Jiao always believed that it was Jiao Lianping's fault, who would have thought that he was wrong Outrageous.

Seeing Zhao Yuan who was covered in blood almost like a corpse, Chen shivered a bit, and finally came back to her senses, her complexion turned pale to the extreme, her lips trembled, after all, she was still afraid of death.

"Father, for Hong'er's sake, it's better to send sister-in-law to Zhuangzi." Suddenly, a weak voice sounded outside the door.

The closed door was pushed open from the outside, only to see Jiao Lianyu being supported by the nursing home. Due to the excessive blood loss, she looked like she could pass away at any time.

"Lianyu, why are you up?" Aunt Huang, who had watched a big play, hurriedly got up and supported Jiao Lianyu. When she thought of him walking before the gate of hell, Aunt Huang couldn't help but glanced at Chen with hatred. People are so ruthless, they should strike first.

Jiao Lianping leaned back on the chair, raised his chin slightly, and said with a domineering and arrogant attitude, "Second brother is very scheming! Leaving this poisonous woman in the Zhuangzi will not only disgust me, but also destroy me, and even destroy me." My son's official career, in terms of cruelty, Chen's poisonous woman is really nothing compared to my second brother."

Mrs. Chen passed away due to illness or an accident. As long as there is no news about what happened tonight, Jiao Lianping will be able to remarry in the future, remarry a good wife, maybe even choose a well-connected official daughter, and rely on the power of the Yue family to make a fortune. .

But as long as Mrs. Chen lives for one day, she will occupy the position of Jiao Lianping's wife, and Mrs. Chen buys a murderer, and the one who kills is her own brother-in-law. If Chen's crimes are revealed, the official careers of the father and son will be ruined.

With a wry smile, Jiao Lianyu seemed to know the elder brother's hatred and targeting towards her, so she didn't explain it to him, but said to Jiao Zhifu, who was in charge: "Father, no matter what, sister-in-law is Hong'er's biological mother after all, if she has an accident, In the future, when Hong'er finds out the truth, I'm afraid he will hate us."

"Furthermore, I did not have any surprises this time. As for the other things that elder brother said before, they are after all trivial matters in the back house. If we let my sister-in-law die of illness because of this, it would be nothing less than neglecting human life."

What Jiao Lianyu said was sincere. He first considered his nephew, and secondly, the reputation of the Jiao family. Once the news of Chen's death was spread, it would even affect Jiao Zhifu. After all, if Jiao Lianyu did not die, Chen would be guilty not to die.

Speaking of this, not to mention that the magistrate Jiao has hesitated, even Mrs. Jiao has concerns. She knows in her heart that Jiao Lianyu, a concubine, is keeping Mrs. Chen to disgust the eldest family, and even wants to use this to manipulate the eldest family.

But Mrs. Jiao also knew that Jiao Lianyu's words were not aimless. Mrs. Chen died of illness. Once Jiao Lianyu told Hong'er about this in the future, how could she let go of her mother-killing hatred easily?Even if Hong'er could understand, he might be alienated from them.

"Father, mother, I was wrong, and I will never dare again." Chen Shi seemed to see the hope of living, kowtowed and cried, "Even for Hong'er's sake, Father, mother, I will honestly stay in the village to recuperate from illness, I just want to watch Hong'er marry a wife and have children."

According to Jiao Lianping's temper, he would rather not have an official career than dispose of Mrs. Chen, but when he thought of his cute and well-behaved son, Jiao Lianping opened his mouth, but he couldn't say any harsh words after all.

Neither Jiao Lianyu nor Aunt Huang spoke again. The mother and son sat quietly on the chairs. This time, they were in a dilemma. No matter how they chose, they were wrong. They just had to wait for the result with peace of mind.

"Lord Jiao." Just when the magistrate Jiao was hesitating, Zhan Feiyu suddenly spoke, and met Chen's horrified and resentful eyes, and said slowly: "Although this is a housework in the Lord's house, but just now Chen tried to make the purchase The crime of murder was pinned on me. Although I only have the fame of a scholar, I also have the token of the Forbidden Dragon Guard in my hand, which represents the Forbidden Dragon Guard. Both Chen and Zhao Yuan will be taken away. If outsiders smell it, my lord Push it on the head of the Forbidden Dragon Guard."

Uh……

Everyone was stunned for a moment, since the Forbidden Dragon Guard was involved, who would dare to talk too much?In this way, Chen's matter is settled.

Jiao Lianping's son asked later, even if he hated Jinlongwei, he probably wouldn't dare to retaliate. Even if he did, Zhan Feiyu would not be afraid. To arrest people and bring them to justice according to the law, even the censor can't say a word.
