Jade Without Fragrance

Chapter 29: Go Home

Chapter 29 Homecoming

Emperor Tai’an’s face was sinking like water after hearing the empress dowager’s sigh.

“This kind of warmth is so excessive.”

He couldn’t care about the family affairs of the courtiers, but if it upset his mother, he had to pay more attention to it.

“Don’t think so, mother, no one can make you angry with your son.”

The Queen Mother listened to this, and she felt relieved and sighed: “The old lady of the Lin family, isn’t it because she doesn’t have a son.”

Having no son, General Lin was willing to refuse the throne of the king.

If General Lin passed away, he would have a heir to inherit the throne, how could Wen Rugui dare to do such a thing?

In the final analysis, he deceived the Lin family.

“The mother can rest assured that the son will handle this matter well.”

The Empress Dowager nodded in relief: “I don’t care about the other Ai’s family, it’s just like this, the Lin and Wen families can’t be married. The old lady of the Lin family came into the palace, only begging her daughter and Wen Rugui to be righteous and take their two granddaughters with them. Go back to Lin’s house.”

“That’s right.” After hearing what the Queen Mother said, Emperor Tai’an felt that the old lady was not too busy and had a better impression of the Lin family.

He was not without anger when he was rejected by General Lin from the throne. At that time, he had just ascended the throne, and he was criticized a lot and needed support from all parties. Old General Lin even refused to be the prince of the country, and made it clear that he had an opinion on his succession.

He even had the intention to kill, but considering the achievements of General Lin and his situation at the time, he could not be reckless.

Now that General Lin is gone, there are only women and children left in the Lin family, and Emperor Tai’an has long been seated on the dragon chair, and his mood is naturally different from that of the past.

Since the mother opened her mouth, he didn’t mind giving the Lin family a little care.

Emperor Tai’an left the Cining Palace, and a grandmother stood behind the queen mother and squeezed her shoulders for her.

After an unknown amount of time, the Queen Mother opened her closed eyes and said with emotion: “I didn’t expect that Dou Chuncao, who has always been on a rampage, would cry too.”

This sentence has some meaning.

Mother, who was pinching her shoulders for the Queen Mother, silently made the movements lighter.

“I’m getting old…” The Queen Mother let out a meaningful sigh.

When Emperor Tai’an returned to his bedroom, he heard the **** Zhu Xi report to the Servant Wen for an interview.

Emperor Tai’an raised his eyelids and said calmly, “Just say that I accompany the Queen Mother and haven’t come back yet.”

Zhu Xi took the lead and left.

Wen Ruguizheng was waiting outside anxiously, and when he saw Zhu Xi, he immediately greeted him: “Eunuch Zhu—”

Zhu Xi raised his hand to interrupt Wen Rugui’s words, and by the way separated the distance: “Master Wen, please come back, the emperor is still with the Queen Mother in the Cining Palace.”

Wen Rugui listened, his face turned pale.

The old lady went to the palace to complain to the queen mother, and the emperor said that he was with the queen mother, and he knew what it meant.

Wen Rugui didn’t even know how he walked back to Wen Mansion, and he didn’t respond to a bunch of people watching the fun, so he stumbled and fell to the ground when he reached the gate.

“Master, Master!” the doorman shouted.

“Is this not catching up with the old lady of the General’s Mansion?”

“It seems so.”

“Tsk tsk, Sir Wen has bad legs.”

When the crowd of watchers gathered and talked, several officials knocked on the door of Wen’s house.

In the face of the officials who came to the house, Wen Rugui lost his soul and lost his usual calmness.

“Master Wen, the old lady of the Lin family has brought a complaint to the government, and please sentence the Lin family to your righteousness. Please go with the villain.”

Wen Rujia didn’t seem to hear.

“Sir Wen, we are waiting for you.” The official raised his tone.

Following Wen Rugui was another steward. Seeing that Wen Rugui did not move, he anxiously shouted, “Master—”

Wen Rugui got up with a numb expression, and followed the official to the official mansion in a muddleheaded manner.

Outside the yamen, the third floor and the third floor were crowded with people, and someone shouted “come”, and the crowd suddenly became excited.

“Don’t squeeze, don’t squeeze.” After finally finding a way to lead Wen Rugui in, the official’s saber was almost squeezed out.

In the court, the Yin Rugui of Shuntian was sitting in a dangerous position, expressionless at the arrival of Wen Rugui.

As usual, he would naturally be more polite to his colleagues of the same level. Today, he has received instructions from above, but it is unnecessary.

“Wen Shi Lang, the old lady of the General’s Mansion accused you of slandering your father-in-law and asking her daughter to be righteous with you. Do you have any objection?”

“I—” Wen Rugui’s numb expression changed, “I didn’t!”

The Governor of Shuntian was somewhat unexpectedly warm and cooperative, he thought he would struggle a little bit.

In this way, it saves him trouble.

“If that’s the case, then sentence you and Lin’s righteousness—”

“I said I didn’t slander my father-in-law.” Wen Rugui said loudly.

The old lady sneered: “Wen Rugui, you are still arguing in every possible way, and you will not repent!”

Wen Rugui struggled to the death: “Master Taishui is dissatisfied with the little son-in-law. It is absolutely okay to ask Wanqing to be righteous with me, but the little son-in-law will never recognize what he has not done.”

admits it in court, and he is completely finished.

“Wen Shi Lang, that’s not what your clan brother and steward said.” The governor of Shuntian said lightly.

Wen Rugui took a closer look, Wen Rusheng and Wen Ping were both present.

caught his gaze, and both of them lowered their eyes.

Wen Rugui’s anger was instantly ignited, and he said sternly, “Who are you two taking advantage of to frame me like this!”

“Your outer room is bigger than Chan’er, is it someone else who framed you?” the old lady asked coldly.

Warm like a stagnation.

Lin Shi, who had been silent for a while, suddenly laughed.

The laughter grew louder and louder, and the sad laughter resounded through the court.

“Mother-” Wen Hao held Lin’s arm and couldn’t help panicking.

Did she only change her grandmother’s fate, and her mother couldn’t stand the blow or did she end up the same as her previous life?

Thinking of this possibility, Wen Hao burst into tears.

I don’t know if I laughed enough, or I saw her daughter’s tears, Lin shi stopped laughing, staring at Wen Rugui with crazy eyes: “Wen Rugui, I thought you were a wolf in human skin, but I didn’t expect you to just Rat in the gutter. I’m so blind, I lift you up again and again!”

These words slapped Wen Rugui’s face like a loud slap, making him angry and embarrassed.

The old lady did not want her daughter to be involved with Wen Rugui again, so she urged the governor of Shuntian: “Sir, Wen Rugui also agreed to Yi Jue just now, please judge.”

As evidenced by Wen Ping and Wen Rusheng, even if Wen Rugui denies in every possible way, it is impossible to change public opinion.

His confession means nothing to the Lin family.

“In this case, Wen Rugui and Lin’s Wanqing are judged to be absolutely righteous, and the two daughters born by the two belonged to the Lin family with Lin’s—”

“Wait!” Wen Rugui interrupted the governor of Shuntian, “It’s Yi Jue, why does my daughter belong to his wife’s clan? There is no such thing in the world.”

Holding the two daughters in the palm of his hand, even if the General’s House were to deal with him, they would throw a rat against him.

The governor of Shuntian gave Wen Rugui a sympathetic look, and reminded: “Wen Shi Lang, there is justice in heaven.”

Wen Rugui’s face instantly turned gray.

Heaven has justice, this “Heaven” clearly refers to the Son of Heaven!

Soon the documents that sentenced Yijue were given to both parties.

The old lady put away the verdict for her daughter and waved her hand proudly: “Let’s go, let’s go home.”
