Sun Yannan bought a large mansion, in fact, he was a bit obsessed. If his daughter were still alive, she would be able to find a home in Pingchang County, and the housekeepers and servants who looked after the house were trustworthy old people. She could also go to her aunt and uncle. If all else failed, Canglan could go to any of the master's shops and ask the owner.
But if my daughter heard they had moved and came to Kyoto to look for them, where would she go to look for them in such a huge city with two three-story houses? Does anyone know?
But now, as long as you say the Pingchang County Master's family, people will answer, Oh, the family that bought the Fuguogong Mansion?
She will not stop looking for her daughter. If her daughter is looking for a home, the home must be easier to find.
Just as Lord Sun worried, this quickly attracted attention, including the attention of Ren Jiayu. The young lady of the Shi family was actually Sun Yannan, who had been at odds with her in the past.
After a closer look, Ren Jiayu felt even more uncomfortable. Shi Yue was a handsome man who had won the top three places in the imperial examinations. The Shi family was wealthy, the young couple loved each other very much, and their two sons were smart and lively. Moreover, the management power of such a large Shi family was given directly to Sun Yanan, bypassing her mother-in-law.
How could someone who was not taken seriously live so well? What made Ren Jiayu most uncomfortable was that Sun Yannan liked Shi Yue in the beginning. Shi Yue was very cold to her at that time, but now the couple is in love and Shi Yue dotes on her.
This reminded Ren Jiayu of He Qing, the person she had always loved but never gotten. She also recalled her two marriages, which had seemed to hold up appearances but were actually tragic.
Why can Sun Yanan get what he wants?
It's indeed a bit too happy to be noticed.
Sun Yanan returned to Kyoto and had just tidied up his house when he was shocked to hear that Miss Chen, the daughter of a member of the Ministry of War, had died.
This girl's fiancé was the one who was deceived by the Fifth Prince's vague words and broke off the engagement with Miss Chen and turned to Miss Sheng.
Miss Chen Jiao was beaten to death by her husband Meng Chen, but her then-fiancé Tian Yuanji was also involved.
About ten years after his marriage, Tian Yuanji was drinking with an official from the Ministry of Personnel when he heard him talk about his transfer and promotion that year. He felt embarrassed at first because he was following the path of his wife's best friend, Miss Ren, and the Fifth Prince. But the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong.
According to the official from the Ministry of Personnel, all his promotions were normal, and he was describing the details of the Ministry's assessment that year. Tian Yuanji initially thought it was just some official joke, but he became suspicious and tentatively mentioned the Fifth Prince.
The official from the Ministry of Personnel said, "Are you confused? What is the Emperor's temper? My dear princes, His Majesty has assigned you tasks and responsibilities so that you can each do your job. You are not allowed to interfere in other matters. Otherwise, if five princes, two princesses, and several concubines could interfere in the appointment of officials, what chaos would it cause?"
Even if the princes felt they could recommend someone, they would still have to go through the normal review process. Only after everything passed would it be reported to His Majesty. If His Majesty approved, there would still be a two-month observation period for review, making the entire process about eight months. How could a prince just say something and have someone take up the position a month later? It's possible that His Majesty would ask, but it's also possible that our stubborn superior would refuse.
Tian Yuanji went home and thought about it. It was possible that Miss Ren Jiayu of the Ren family had done something evil and cheated in order to help her friend Miss Sheng, who was now his wife. She was already favored by two princes and had the support of the three members of the Ren family, father and son. She had always been a force to be reckoned with in Kyoto.
But the Fifth Prince, a dignified prince, also deceived him like this? But then he thought about it again. Ten years ago, the Fifth Prince was only a little boy. He was completely shocked by his grandeur, the entourage and his status as a prince. In fact, he was just a teenager.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but recall the look on Miss Chen's face when he broke off the engagement. He already felt guilty, and now he suddenly felt a pain in his heart like a knife.
So Tian Yuanji managed to finally see his promotion file in the Ministry of Personnel. Just as the official said, long before the Fifth Prince talked to him, he had already passed the Ministry of Personnel's secret assessment for half a year. After the Ministry of Personnel approved it, His Majesty approved it again. The Fifth Prince probably had the opportunity to see this file in His Majesty's place. Knowing that he was about to be promoted, he was deceived, so he really canceled the marriage that they were in love with and had been engaged for many years.
After a long pause, Tian Yuanji returned to searching for Miss Chen ten years later. He eventually learned that she had married Meng Chen in Shazhou County, a distant land near the sea. The climate was warm and humid, and Chen Jiao and Meng Chen had been living in harmony before Tian Yuanji arrived.
In the past two years, Tian Yuanji has taken every opportunity to visit Shazhou County, bringing back various local specialties, hairpins, bracelets, and new fabrics for Chen Jiao. Because of this, Chen Jiao and Meng Chen inevitably had many arguments.
Recently, Miss Chen and Meng Chen returned to her parents' home with their children.
When Tian Yuanji learned about it, he also came to visit the Chen family in Kyoto. Somehow, Meng Chen and Tian Yuanji started arguing and fighting. In anger, Meng Chen almost beat Tian Yuanji to death. In the end, his thundering punch was blocked by Chen Jiao who flew out. Chen Jiao was beaten back a few steps, fell and hit the back of her head, and died.
Because someone died, Meng Chen and Tian Yuanji were arrested by the Jingzhao Yin. However, when the Jingzhao Yin's coroner performed an autopsy to confirm the cause of death, he discovered that the punch to the chest and the wound to the back of the head were not fatal. Chen Jiao had been poisoned for more than six months, and the poison was the real cause of death.
During the investigation, all the letters between Tian Yuanji and Chen Jiao were found. Tian Yuanji's letters clearly stated that he was deceived by the Fifth Prince and Ren Jiayu, and that he had lost his conscience. In addition, because of the dispute between the civil and military officials, the military officer lost his fame and was despised by his wife. In addition, he was worried that if he rejected the Fifth Prince and General Ren's Mansion, his career would not be smooth in the future, so he broke off the engagement.
