Second Aunt Qiao was led in by the people below, and from afar she saw An Hongshao walking toward her in a hurry.
Mrs. Qiao smiled and stopped. After waiting for An Hongshao to come over, Mrs. Qiao helplessly took An Hongshao's hand, "Look at your face, which is red from the cold. Why are you so anxious? It's such a cold day. Not afraid of freezing."
An Hongshao smiled and relaxed, "I will remember it from now on."
It's rare for Mr. Qiao to come here, but An Hongshao doesn't care so much.
According to the rules, Mrs. Qiao had to go and sit with Mrs. Lian first. Although they were old acquaintances, after chatting for a few words, Mrs. Lian was also considerate and agreed to let Mrs. Qiao stay here for dinner, so she let Mrs. Qiao follow. An Hongshao arrived at the second room courtyard.
Mrs. Qiao followed An Hongshao all the way and watched carefully. Whenever she saw their servants, they would stop what they were doing and pay their respects first.
It can be seen that everyone in the Lian family has great respect for An Hongshao. When they arrived at the second-bedroom courtyard, judging from An Hongshao's gestures, she had the final say here.
She already knew the Lian family's attitude.
He led Mrs. Qiao through the front hall, entered the inner courtyard, sat in front of the hall, and directly gave way to the main seat. An Hongshao even served tea personally.
This is to respect Qiao as a mother.
There was a smile in Mrs. Qiao's eyes, "Good boy, I just wanted to come over and see you. Your uncle is thinking about you and is afraid that you will be wronged and dare not mention it to your mother. But don't forget that you still have an aunt." .”
If you have anything to say in private, don’t hold it back.
"Don't worry, aunt, everything is fine here." An Hongshao answered from the bottom of her heart. She really felt that the Lian family was good. Even with Lian Yanyu, Lian's father was not doting on her without a bottom line, and everything made sense. .
After chatting a few words about myself, Li Yuyin was indispensable.
Knowing that she was busy looking at each other these days, I couldn't help but say a few words of hope for her happiness.
With Qiao's control, I think Li Yuyin will have a good marriage.
After a few chats at home, Mrs. Qiao seemed to have said unintentionally, "It's not peaceful in the court now, and your uncle is always worried."
The Ministry of Punishment acted swiftly, and this morning the matter was reported to the Holy One.
The identities of the women raised by the Zhang family are not simple. In addition to being the daughter of the guilty minister, they are also secretly working in other countries.
It is said that when she was in trouble, she was lured by a foreign country with a large sum of money, so she secretly returned to the capital, deliberately approached the Zhang family, and successfully became the woman of the Zhang family.
The Ministry of Punishment has already begun to investigate what news came from this woman.
Based on the evidence currently available, the Zhang family does not know the true identity of this woman. They are all currently in prison, awaiting trial by the three courts.
"It's a meticulous work?" An Hongshao exclaimed. She thought it was just a crime of harboring criminals, but she never expected that it would go so far.
No wonder the emperor wanted to launch an attack. The news that the minister knew could shake the foundation of the country.
Even if Zhang's father really didn't know about it, how could the emperor not be outraged by the fact that you, a dignified minister, was greedy for women and almost harmed the country?
Mr. Qiao nodded. This was what Mr. Li said to his family when he came back from the imperial court. Naturally, it was true.
In addition to this matter, the Holy Father also issued two decrees. The imperial examination, which was originally postponed for half a year, was brought forward. The second decree was that Mr. Feng Ge came to arrange the imperial examination matters.
The imperial examinations were all presided over by the cabinet ministers, but now they are only handed over to Mr. Feng Ge. This meaning is a bit elusive.
The Li family and the Pang family have a relationship. One is a hero who assisted the emperor in enthroning the throne, and the other is the emperor's mentor. The emperor chose to support Mr. Feng Ge. Is this dissatisfaction with the two families?
Maybe he was dissatisfied, but he still left Taifu Li alone after the court, so as to comfort him.
The emperor's thunderous tactics and quick strikes are no longer the immature Crown Prince he used to be. What can Taifu Li say?
An Hongshao pursed her lips tightly. If the emperor really wanted to kill the donkey, why would he recall his grandfather to the capital?
Seeing that An Hongshao's expression was wrong, Mrs. Qiao patted the back of An Hongshao's hand and said, "We women can't do much about the court affairs. We can only resign ourselves to fate. We are just worried about you. How is your situation?"
Judging from the evidence currently available, Zhang Ye's death was entirely due to anger.
However, if it is just to express anger, everyone feels that it is appropriate. But looking at it now, Zhang Ye didn't know the existence of Xizuo. His crime was not worthy of death, but his death was to pave the way for Feng Gelao.
Because the emperor executed Zhang Ye, the courtiers wrote letters one after another, but something happened at this time. It was Mr. Feng Ge who took the lead in stamping out the Zhang family, and finally the details behind him were found out.
Perhaps the emperor had known about it for a long time, but at least on the surface, it was natural for Feng Ge to win the emperor's approval in this incident.
Originally, the most important thing in the court was the election of the emperor's harem, but now that the Zhang family has happened, the emperor will naturally suspend the matter and replace it with the imperial examination.
Although Mr. Feng Ge is in charge of the imperial examination matters, the Ministry of Rites must also be in charge.
The incident happened this time in the Ministry of Rites, but because the imperial examination was about to take place, it was impossible for the emperor to deal with a minister and then implicate the minister. This would cause the entire ministry of rites to be in turmoil, so Lian's father's position became more stable. In the face of major events, the emperor needed him, the minister, to stabilize the turmoil in the ministry of rites. people's hearts.
It can only be seen in the face of major events that the emperor has complete trust in the Lian family.
So in this case, the role played by the Lian family makes people think deeply. After all, before Zhang Ye's accident, it was the Lian family who suddenly transferred people to the imperial court as scheduled.
After saying so much, Ms. Qiao was afraid that An Hongshao would be afraid to comfort her softly, "My aunt can't control the court, but she is just worried that if he was responsible for this matter, he would be able to abandon his brothers and pave the way for himself at such a young age. It is unusual for him to have deep thoughts." I'm afraid I won't be able to treat you well."
If someone who has been working in the court for many years would do such a thing, everyone would accept it, but it is really scary for a young boy who only runs errands in the palace to give advice to the court.
An Hongshao bit her lip and said calmly after a moment, "I don't know about other things, but transferring Zhang Ye to the imperial court was definitely not planned by my husband in advance."
It was Lian Yanyu's selfishness that made the Lian family compensate the Zhang family, and she had told Lian Ruzhi herself about it.
Hearing what An Hongshao said, Mrs. Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, "It's so good. I think Mr. Feng Ge has some expert guidance."
Only in this way can a series of games be played.
It was already obvious that Feng Ge and Pang were at odds with each other.
While talking, it was getting late.
It happened that Aunt Guo also came over to invite people, saying that Lian's mother had prepared a banquet, and Mrs. Li Er was waiting for her to sit down.
An Hongshao stood up with a smile, as if her aunt had not said these shocking words to her just now.
She didn't know what would happen in the court, whether it was good or bad. Just like after learning about Zhang Ye's accident, she was in a state of uncertainty. All she could do now was suppress her joy and anger in her heart. This was probably a matter of course. Teach yourself as scheduled.
Lian's mother was really a good mother-in-law. She treated Mrs. Qiao as a guest, held a banquet in the main hall, and took off the curtain on the door, making the whole hall bright and bright.
