However, whenever Li Hongming faced Luo Peishan, he always felt that the other party's eyes were very cold.
After the first, second, and third time, Li Hongming could be sure that his feeling was not an illusion. The Luo Family had wronged him in the matter of Luo Jingying. During this period of time, he was tolerant enough and did not cause trouble for the Luo Family, nor did he treat Luo Peishan coldly. However, if there was something that could make Luo Peishan so cold, he could not help but suspect that the Luo Family already knew that it was his doing in the matter of Luo Jingbo.
Speaking of which, this matter was completely coincidental. When a poor scholar who had just entered the capital first saw Luo Jingbo's teaching album, his face was full of disbelief. Coincidentally, this was seen by his people. They felt that there might be something to be done about it, so they brought him to him. In fact, he did not believe in this matter at all and directly used torture. How could a poor scholar withstand such torture? He easily confessed everything.
Even so, there were still some suspicious points in this matter. Therefore, he unceremoniously took advantage of this matter.
In the beginning, he still controlled himself. After all, his purpose was not to really destroy Luo Jingbo. It was nothing more than either blackmailing Luo Peishan or appearing as a benefactor to easily help Luo Jingbo out of this matter. However, he was hindered by other matters. When he looked back, this matter was already over. Moreover, he did not know who was behind it.
This kind of completely uncontrollable matter kept happening over and over again. Who on earth was going against him?
When Prince Rui faced Luo Peishan, he acted as if he did not know about this matter as usual. No matter whether the Luo Family believed that he had something to do with it or not, he was determined not to admit it. In short, he pretended to be innocent until the end.
Prince Rui was very clear that with Luo Jingbo's current reputation, he was bound to be the focus of Luo Peishan's training. In the future, he would be the mainstay of the Luo Family. Now that someone was trying to destroy him, to a certain extent, it was undoubtedly destroying the Luo Family's foundation. This was equivalent to the enmity of the destruction of the Luo Family. How could the Luo Family not be angry with the initiator of this matter?
Without concrete evidence, Luo Peishan did not argue with him. In fact, Li Hongming's attitude was completely within his expectations. As a superior, how could he be so shameless? Luo Peishan was also an old fox in the officialdom. He even expressed his understanding and even agreed. but if it happened to his family, it was absolutely unforgivable.
Therefore, he expressed that he would be even more thorough with his third grandson-in-law's plan.
Although Li Hongyuan did not allow him to participate in many matters and only allowed him to do his job without bias, because Jingwan was deeply trusted by Li Hongyuan, she told him much more than the others. Therefore, as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, who had the most favorable position, did not do anything, he felt that he was letting himself down. He was using his own power to eliminate other people's influence without leaving a trace. The more he eliminated, the easier it would be for his grandson-in-law.
His third grandson-in-law was going to make a move on someone's — no, that's not right. It should be someone's money bag. He was already choosing a replacement. Rest assured, he would definitely satisfy everyone.
In the past few days, the Luo Family had been busy with Luo Jingming's marriage. Other than the three eldest grandsons, only the two elders of the Luo Family knew about this change. They did not do anything and just waited for the situation to develop.
In the end, just as Li Hongyuan had said, the Minister of Honglu Temple took the initiative to propose a replacement. He even said with tears and snot, that he had let Lord Luo down, and that he hoped that Lord Luo would be magnanimous and not be calculative with him.
Although Luo Peishan had already expected this outcome, his acting skills were superb. First, he expressed his dissatisfaction at the right time. Then, he magnanimously expressed his forgiveness for the other party's sincere apology. After all, outsiders basically did not know about the marriage between the two families, so it would not have much of an impact. Moreover, the Minister of Honglu Temple's legitimate daughter was only one or two months younger than the concubine's daughter. Her coming-of-age ceremony had already passed. After the concubine's elder sister's marriage, it would be her turn.
"I just don't know what exactly happened. Of course, I'm not deliberately making things difficult for you. If Lord Zhao feels that it's inconvenient to say it, it's fine. As the saying goes, every family has its own difficulties. There must be a reason for this last-minute replacement. Dirty linen should not be aired in public. Everyone understands. "Luo Peishan smiled elegantly, as if they were all the same. They all understood.
However, the Minister of Honglu Temple, Lord Zhao, broke out in a cold sweat. He was clearly telling you that he already knew about your family's dirty linen. If he explained it clearly, perhaps everything would be fine. If he did not clear it up, he might even 'let his imagination run wild'. If that happened, it would implicate the legitimate daughter of your family and make her look at you strangely. That would not be good, right?
Speaking of which, Lord Zhao was only in his forties and was a standard third-rank official. Compared to Luo Peishan, who was a standard first-rank official, there was a huge gap. Not only was he a junior official, but he was also a junior official. This time, he was even more in the wrong.
He was of the same rank as the Fifth Taiqing, but his relationship with Luo Peishan was not the slightest bit prior to this.
Originally, using a concubine's daughter to establish a relationship with the Luo family was a bargain. Even if it was at the beginning, he felt that using a legitimate daughter to form a marriage alliance would not be a loss. However, in the end, he had to consider the issue of face. In the end, it was his family that caused trouble. If he had known, he would have used a legitimate daughter from the beginning. As the saying goes, taking the initiative and being forced were two completely different things.
After thinking about it, he decided to tell the truth. If the Luo family decided to pursue the matter to the end, when the lie was exposed, it would be even more unbearable. After all, his family had made a big fuss about this matter. He could not guarantee that he would not leak it. "Lord Luo, speaking of which, this official has not taught my daughter well. That wicked girl has liked her uncle's cousin since childhood and did not agree to this marriage. A few days ago, she actually did something improper. It's just that this official did not know about this matter. When it happened, I really wanted to beat her to death. This official is really too ashamed to show his face to you."
Luo Peishan nodded. In his heart, he thought, this was really someone's usual style. He did not leave a way out once he started.
The Honglu Temple official did not have the guts to marry a girl who had lost her virginity. After all, if it was discovered that she had faked her marriage in the bridal chamber, the two families would become mortal enemies. It would be better for other people, but if they offended the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, how would their descendants and the children of their relatives and friends be able to survive?
As long as he, Luo Peishan, was alive, his family would never be able to make a name for themselves. According to Luo Peishan's current mental state, if nothing unexpected happened, he would still have many years to go. Promotion in the officialdom was also about the right time, the right place, and the right people. If they missed this opportunity, they might not be able to make a name for themselves again. No family could afford to waste several years of time.
Therefore, it was better to clarify the matter and find an excuse for the concubine's daughter to be infected. This would be able to smooth things over to outsiders. He could also give outsiders a good reputation for being benevolent and righteous. Naturally, it would be good for everyone. However …
"Lord Luo, don't worry. This official's daughter is well-educated and has a good character. She definitely doesn't have someone she likes. After they get married, she will definitely be able to harmonize with her husband and become a good couple."
If his daughter was implicated by the concubine's daughter, he would definitely beat that wicked girl to death when he returned.
"Lord Zhao, you worry too much. Since I have agreed to the marriage, I naturally will not make things difficult for my future granddaughter-in-law. You can also rest assured about my grandson's character. He will definitely not make any malicious guesses and will definitely not vent his anger on others."
"The Luo Family has taught their children well. All the men in the Luo Family are good. This is something that everyone knows. It is my daughter's fortune to be able to marry into the Luo Family," the Honglu Temple official said respectfully.
After the marriage was finalized, the two of them chatted happily.
This time, the agenda could begin.
Speaking of which, Luo Jingming was already eighteen years old. Luo Jingbo, who was younger than him, had already become a father. The female side had also reached marriageable age, so there was no need to delay it for another year or two. Therefore, the wedding date was set for September this year.
Compared to when Luo Jingbo married Sun Yijia, there was not much difference in the various gifts. The Luo Family had shown enough sincerity.
However, it was said that on the day of the wedding, Zhao Family was "very lively". That concubine's daughter almost caused a ruckus, saying that her di younger sister and di mother were a pair of sluts who schemed against her and stole her marriage. Even if she became a ghost, she would not let them off.
One could imagine the face of the person who took the blame and was extremely glad that the Luo Family gave face and the marriage went on as usual.
As the insiders of the Luo Family, the two elders were very calm, but the three brothers were a little guilty.
"That Miss Zhao's heart is in love with someone else. Jingming, can you be happy with such a daughter-in-law? Furthermore, Jin Qinwang said to change people, can you stop him? Since that's the case, do what you need to do. There is no need to care about anything else. "
Old Madam Luo's words dispelled the brothers' superfluous thoughts. How could people like them be clean and pure for the rest of their lives and not do anything against their hearts?
Luo Jingming's marriage, if nothing unexpected happened, was already a foregone conclusion.
However, there were people who were secretly preparing to poach Prince Kang's wife, wanting to marry the di daughter of the Minister of Works. However, there were people who were unwilling to let him take advantage of this. Therefore, regarding his harem being in chaos, favoring a prostitute, concubine harming his di son, causing him to fall seriously ill, Prince Kang still stood on his own woman's side. As Prince Kang's ce fei — — the younger sister of the former Princess Kang, in order to take care of her sister's child, she entered the wangfu during her sister's mourning period. She entered the palace in anger and almost died in the Empress's Kun Yi Palace. Because of this, Le Chengdi was alarmed. As a result, Prince Kang, who had just improved, was reprimanded by Le Chengdi.
The Minister of Works also stood up and tactfully expressed his love for his daughter, indirectly rejecting the marriage with Prince Kang.
After all, it was not an imperial edict, so the Minister of Works' refusal was understandable. The Empress could issue an imperial edict to facilitate the marriage. However, because of Qi Yuan's restrictions on the harem, as long as there was a legitimate reason, the officials could refuse to accept the Empress's imperial edict. The Minister of Works had already spoken up to this point. In the end, it was Prince Kang's own problem, so it could not be blamed on him. If the Empress still insisted on issuing an imperial edict, then not only would she lose face, she would also create an enemy for Prince Kang.
Thus, the marriage could only be dropped.
Prince Kang was so angry that he flew into a rage and smashed a lot of things. As for the "instigator" Yaorao, he naturally did not have a good expression. After all, in the eyes of these men, no matter how much a woman helped them, they should not expect them to be grateful. Especially a woman like Yaorao, who was essentially a plaything. The more she was, the more valuable she would be. But once she lost her value, she was even worse than a real plaything.
Yaorao secretly hated in her heart. She had been in contact with Prince Kang's legitimate son, but she did not do anything, nor did she stir up trouble in Prince Kang's harem. After all, this was not her purpose. She was really not interested in fighting with those women. She did not expect that in a moment of carelessness, if not for the fact that she was still useful, Prince Kang would have pushed another person out to take the blame. She was just a dancer who did not even have the status of a concubine. Ten lives were not enough to compensate for her crime. With her current status, even if she died, she would die in vain.
She learned from her mistakes, so Yaorao naturally would not make such a mistake again. In the future, she would also not look down on the women in the harem.
However, no matter what she thought, at this moment, she used all her skills to win back Prince Kang's favor.
One drama after another, it could be said that it was brilliant.
In these muddy waters, the Gong Prince had received several praises. Recently, he had been doing a good job, and his relationship with his father-in-law, Left Governor Qin Tian Ming, had also gradually eased. It could be said that he was in high spirits.
At the same time, the Seventh Prince, who was once a regent, had also quietly climbed up. He had his own team, and gradually stood out, unknowingly showing his vigorous ambition.
The person who had been at the top seemed to be gradually losing power, or was he deliberately lying dormant?
The number of adult princes would continue to increase, and the situation in the Imperial Court would inevitably become more and more serious.
Jingwan and Li Hongyuan were more and more leisurely in the manor, and because the small amusement park had been completed day and night, the several little ones were more and more immersed in pleasure, and did not want to return to the capital.
Her own daughter was with Jingwan, her adopted daughter, so Great Elder Princess seemed to be particularly relieved. Yu Yao had never been away from her for such a long time, and she did not send people to bring her back. As for the two girls of the Luo family, the Luo family was even less worried.
As for the horse farm in the manor, with a word from the King of Hell, the Ministry of Works had to allocate enough craftsmen for him. These craftsmen, who had always worked for the Imperial Family and the world, could only honestly bury themselves in work at this time.
Of course, for the experienced craftsmen, they were very happy to take on Prince Jin's private work, and work for Prince Jin. The salary was at least three times that of other places. This money was not so easy to get. They had to be perfect, and Prince Jin must be satisfied. If he was satisfied, there would be more rewards. If he was not satisfied, he would be in a good mood, and you would probably have another chance. If he was in a bad mood, you would probably suffer.
However, it was said that the main person in charge this time was the Wangfei. Although they had not seen her, they could clearly feel that the stewards below were more amiable. If there was a mistake, they would be instructed, and then the work would be done.
As the saying goes, there is no distinction between good and bad without comparison. Prince Jin's Consort was so amiable that it made them work even harder. It was also because Jingwan said that if they had any opinions, they could raise them. If they were adopted, there would be rewards. As a result, the construction of the horse farm was faster than expected, and some of the places that had been modified by the craftsmen were more perfect. Jingwan was very happy.
When Princess Jin was happy, Prince Jin was also in a good mood, and the wages rose.
The craftsmen were grinning from ear to ear. It could be said that it was good for you, good for me, and good for everyone.
"We should return to the capital." Li Hongyuan said.
Jingwan expressed deep regret.
