Chapter 107 Reality Hurts
"After our ancestors of the Jing family regained their foothold in Xixuan, the first family rule they set with the family was to bear the burden of humiliation! For this reason, the family did not hesitate to hide their names and worked hard for more than 200 years to achieve the status of the Jing family's honorable family! For the sake of the big plan, the family never dared to take a wrong step! You are my son and the most outstanding person in Jing's generation. The family placed high hopes on you, so the hereditary title was passed on to you, but in the end you However, we were kicked out of the capital by being stripped of our titles! Our Jing clan directly left the political center! I don’t know how to explain to my clan for such a catastrophe, and you still have the face to cry and complain about your grievances in front of me!”

The old man, the suzerain of the Jing family, even though he reprimanded him severely, the muscles on his face did not change, only his eyes were so cold that people dare not look directly at them.

Concubine Jinghou had stopped crying, her face was pale and pale, she glanced at Jinghou who gritted her teeth, Qiqi Ai said, "Father, although your husband has been deprived of his title, but that matter has finally come to fruition..."

The old man's eyes sharpened, "If it weren't for that credit, do you think you can still come back to our family?"

Concubine Jinghou was so frightened that her eyelashes trembled and she kept silent.

Facing this thoughtful father-in-law, she was even more afraid.

"Fortunately, I am still the suzerain now, and I can speak in the clan. Things have come to this point, since you are back, be patient in everything, and I will warn the other children. After a long time, no one will continue Aiming at you. It is normal for the clan to lose their hereditary titles suddenly, and it is normal for them to have emotions in their hearts. Let’s leave it at that. There is also that little girl, don’t bother with her for the time being.”

Speaking of Jun Xian, Jing Hou's suppressed resentment resurfaced again, "Father, I will lose the title of Lord Marquis, and our Jing family will fall into the land we are now, all because of that bitch Jun Xian! I will never Let her go!"

"Wait until the day you have the ability to step on her, and then say this sentence."

"..."

Reality hurts people, no matter how much you hate, you have to admit that in the current situation, he, a former marquis who has lost power, cannot compare with Jun Xian.

After leaving the study, Concubine Jinghou supported Jinghou all the way back to the courtyard where they lived now, and the people they met along the way were all full of ridicule.

Even the servants who are needed by the master in the mansion, when they saw them, they lost their previous humility.

That kind of gaze falling on them was a great torment for them.

"Master Hou, we can only stay here like this? Is there really nothing we can do?" Concubine Jing Hou bit her lips, wishing she could hide in the meeting room immediately, but the man next to her was too weak to walk. Extremely slow, extending the torment infinitely.

"If there is a way, do you think I will be angry here?" Jing Hou was expressionless, and his tone was full of sarcasm, "Listen to father, as long as we hold the cards in our hands, it is only a matter of time before we turn around No matter how displeased I am, the people in the clan will only dare to chew their tongues, and they will never dare to attack us."

"What about Jingli?"

"Hmph, that vile animal! If you're out of control, find an opportunity to get rid of it!" After speaking, Jing Hou became impatient when he saw that the woman's topic was always revolving around these things, "Okay, don't think about these things. Bear with it, when the time comes, I will make my own arrangements."

Concubine Jinghou's eyes flickered, and she said lightly, "I'm at your command."

What happened here, outsiders have no way of knowing.

Since the eldest prince Si Chenghuan was kicked out of the National Teacher's Mansion that day, he never visited the door to pester him, and there was no news from the palace. The matter seemed to pass like this.

In addition to receiving countless invitations every day, the National Teacher's Mansion can be considered to have regained its tranquility.

Jing Li has made rapid progress in Taiyuan College. He has completed his enlightenment in two months and passed the assessment. He will be promoted to elementary school next year.

The first heavy snow fell in the capital at the beginning of December, intermittently for a month without stopping, looking around, covered with silver makeup everywhere.

Jun Xian was summoned into the palace early in the morning, and when he went out, he was still a little angry.

After all, the baby just happened to be Mu Xiu, thinking that she could sleep late, but was disturbed by an edict from the emperor.

"Your majesty, is there something important that you have to pick me up from the bed? Don't you want me to have a free day?" Walking into the emperor's imperial study and patting the snow off his shoulders, Jun Xian frowned and complained.

The emperor was very angry, "I woke up earlier than you, and I didn't complain, but you hated me!"

"Look at the whole capital, who doesn't stay at home in the cold weather, Maodong? Although I am a minister, you personally promised me that I don't have to go to court." Maodong, this is a word she just learned. She seemed very appropriate.

"You don't need to go to court, but it doesn't mean you don't need to take care of things." The emperor was amused, "In his position to seek his own government, you are a national teacher, or someone sent by Donghai to assist me. If I have a problem, who will I turn to if I don't ask you?"

For the first time, Jun Xian regretted his fabricated identity.

Knowing Jun Xian's virtue, the emperor was no longer annoyed, pointing to the snowflakes flying outside the window, "Look at this snow, it has been falling for more than a month."

"Yes, yes. The emperor called me here to enjoy the snow?"

The emperor glared at Junxian. After getting along with her for a long time, he got to know her temperament well. The admiration and reverence he had for the Penglai fairy at the beginning has long since disappeared. "This year's snow has been falling for too long. , Snow disasters occurred in many places under the rule of Xixuan. The weather is too cold, and the lives of ordinary people are not easy. In the past half a month, there have been a series of scriptures in the middle of the court, because the disaster caused by the snow disaster has become uncontrollable. Jun Xian, I want to send You go out on patrol to solve the disaster."

Jun Xian was stunned for a moment, looking at the emperor, in those eyes that did not lose his majesty, he saw seriousness, solemnity, and the worries of the world, "Your Majesty, no matter how powerful I am, I can't call the wind and rain, and control the thunder and snow. .”

Even if she had that ability, she couldn't use it.

Trying to change the natural cycle in vain, greatly disobeying the way of heaven, the punishment she will receive at that time will not be just a mere lightning strike.

"I will not ask you to stop the snowfall. But this snowstorm has really made the people suffer unspeakably." Looking at the thick pile of folded papers on the dragon case, the emperor rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, "Because the snowfall does not stop, There was a large-scale famine and disease in the north of Xixuan, so the number of people who died was increasing day by day. To relieve the disaster, I need to allocate relief money and send doctors to go there. The disaster relief money will be secretly corrupted during the distribution process. After much deliberation, it is most appropriate to entrust this matter to you. You are the person I trust the most, and you also have medical skills that are admired by the imperial hospital. If you If you are willing to go, you will be able to guarantee the maximum benefit for the people.”
