Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 803: Many Cheats 124
Of course, it is also possible that the person who tried to trip up Shen Erniang had no conflict with her at all, but simply couldn't stand the glory of Shen Erniang copying poems. This possibility is also possible.

What kind of conflict did the person who was trying to trip up Shen Erniang have with her? We can only find out the reason after we find the person behind the scenes.

Since she was also a time traveler, Linlang wondered if this person was also one of the murderers of her original body. After all, there were people like Shen Erniang who traveled through time simply to find Prince Anjiang, but they were very rare. Most of the time-traveling women came to find Prince Anjiang, and were also the murderers of their original bodies.

Linlang was worried that the person who secretly tripped up Shen Erniang was also the murderer of the original body, so she wanted to find this person to see if the other party had any intention of harming the original body. If not, that would be good; if so, she could also prepare in advance.

This is the main reason why Linlang is willing to meet Shen Erniang's family. Otherwise, based on their performance last time, Linlang would not want to meet this family.

The person in the dark can't bear to see Shen Erniang living a good life. If his relationship with Shen Erniang's husband's family improves and Shen Erniang can live a good life in her husband's family, will he be dissatisfied and take action again to target Shen Erniang?

If so, she might be able to find him this time.

Seeing that Linlang was willing to meet them, everyone in Shen Erniang's husband's family was very happy. They thought that after establishing a good relationship with Prince An's Mansion, their family's first branch would be able to make a further step forward. You know, these years, it was the help of Earl Jing'an that allowed their family's first branch to be promoted from the sixth rank to the fifth rank. After that, the first branch has remained in this position and has not risen any further. And now, they want to make a further step forward.

He also looked for the Earl of Jing'an, who said that it was already very good to be able to help them get promoted to the fifth rank. If they wanted to move up further, it was not something that he, a third-rank assistant minister of the Ministry of War, could do. It would be more appropriate if he was the assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

In fact, Earl Jing'an still wanted to be promoted, but it was very, very difficult for him to be promoted to the next level at his current position. After all, the positions above were all filled to the rank of one, and only when the people above stepped down would the people below have a chance to be promoted.

But when the people above retire, there are many people getting promoted and it becomes difficult to get a position.

This is the case with Earl Jing'an. Every time he had a chance, he failed to grab it.

It is even more difficult to succeed now because he is old and can't do things well. The emperor dare not let him take on heavy responsibilities, so he naturally chooses younger but capable ministers for promotion. Therefore, Earl Jing'an has not been promoted for all these years, which is also a regret for Earl Jing'an.

It was difficult for Earl Jing'an to be promoted himself, so how much energy could he have to help Shen Erniang's uncle from her husband's family to continue to rise.

It costs a lot of money to run for an official position, otherwise people won't give you a promotion at all, especially for those above the sixth rank, which are considered middle-level officials with a certain status, so it is even more difficult to get one.

Jing'an Bo has been a third-rank official for many years and has never moved up. How can he help Shen Erniang's husband's family to continue to rise? Of course, the main reason is that Shen Erniang's husband's family will not give money for running for office. If Jing'an Bo wants to help, he has to pay for it himself. With such a large sum of money, he is of course unwilling to help.

If he had not promised Shen Erniang's husband's family that he would help them get promoted, he would not have helped them get promoted from the sixth rank to the fifth rank.

Actually, Shen Er Niang's husband's family was not stupid, it was impossible for them not to give money for seeking official positions. It was just that Shen Er Niang's husband's family had limited funds. They thought the amount they gave was a lot, but in fact, in the capital, it was just a drop in the bucket. It was not even close to what Jing'an Earl spent on their seeking official positions. After all, there were too many wealthy people in the capital, and they had no idea how high the price of a fifth-rank official was. They were unable to make ends meet, so Jing'an Earl naturally didn't want to help them anymore.

When Shen Erniang's husband's family saw that Marquis Jing'an said that he could no longer help them get promoted to the next level, they set their sights on Prince An's Mansion, thinking that if they had a closer relationship with Prince An's Mansion, it would be beneficial to their own promotion.

——In fact, after Linlang married the Prince of Anjiang, Earl Jing'an had thought that with the background of his son-in-law, he might be able to get promoted to a higher level. But he thought too much. Even if his daughter married a prince, she would not be promoted. That was too much. It would take a long time for a higher position to be vacated. It was not something that could be influenced by his son-in-law being a prince. Even if his son-in-law was the emperor's cousin, it would not work. After all, the emperor had many relatives and friends. Whoever was close to the emperor would have the opportunity to become a high-ranking official. There was no telling how many high-ranking officials there were.

Earl Jing'an had given up the idea of ​​climbing up the social ladder, but Shen Erniang's husband's family had obviously not given up the idea of ​​climbing up the social ladder. They felt that if they got closer to Prince An's Mansion, this goal would be achieved, so they had always wanted to establish a relationship with Prince An's Mansion.

However, because Linlang wanted to find someone to trip up Shen Erniang, she was nice to Shen Erniang's husband's family, which made them very happy. They felt that promotion to the fifth rank, or even the fourth rank, was just around the corner. At the same time, they also thought that maybe she could go to Beijing to become an official - this was what Shen Erniang's husband's family had always wanted to do.

Before Shen Erniang got married, they always thought that being an official in the local area was pretty good. The emperor was far away and the sky was high. Being a sixth-rank official in the local area (they were still sixth-rank officials at that time) was like being a local emperor, living a carefree life. It was not like in the capital, where there were too many rich and powerful people. They were like shrimps in the past, and there was no way they could have as much power and influence as they do now.

However, after hearing Shen Erniang often talk about the prosperity of the capital, many people in the family began to yearn for it and wanted to go to Beijing. They thought that they had the Jing'an Marquis's family as their in-laws, the Zhongyong Marquis's family as their brothers-in-law, and the An Wang Marquis's family, so they were considered to be families of great background and were not considered small shrimps in the capital. So, going to the capital, they could enjoy the prosperity without losing too much status, wouldn't that be good?

So the idea of ​​going to the capital came into her mind - and this was exactly what Shen Erniang wanted, because she had always wanted to return to the capital.

Seeing that her family members were yearning for the prosperity of the capital, Shen Erniang boasted more and more about the advantages of the capital. As expected, everyone wanted to go to the capital more and more. This made Shen Erniang very satisfied. She thought that maybe one day she could return to the capital. After all, Jing'an Bo, who did not allow her to return to the capital, was old and would die one day. Then no one would stop her from going to the capital, and she could go back.

However, the marriage that Jing'an Earl had found for Shen Erniang was with the son of a fifth-rank official. Such a marriage was not actually that good. As a result, the person who was secretly trying to make trouble ruined this marriage. Now Shen Erniang's husband's family has hope of becoming a fifth-rank official again. Although it is not her own family, but the eldest branch of her husband's family, in ancient times, clans were very important, and the relationship was so close that it was almost the same as Shen Erniang's family becoming a fifth-rank official. Perhaps the person who was secretly trying to make trouble will make trouble for Shen Erniang again. Linlang felt that by then, she might be able to discover something.

She was luring the snake out of its hole.
