Chapter 502: Back Road
Mrs. Rong'anbo cried very sadly. She was not only hurt by the rumors, but also by Rong'anbo's attitude. In the end, she was the only one who did the evil. Unfortunately, there was no way to reason with such things.
Once you make the distinction, you will fall into endless self-affirmation.
However, many years have passed since the incident, and just as Xu Zhichun was unable to produce concrete evidence to incriminate her, she also had no way to prove her innocence.
The only thing she could say was "the innocent will be cleared." However, this sentence was actually the most useless.
Saying this at a time like this only adds to the amusement.
Unexpectedly, at this time, news came from the palace that Xue was released from house arrest and was re-ennobled as Concubine Xue.
Everyone was shocked.
However, some smart people, considering the Queen Mother's recent illness, felt that this news was not so surprising.
After all, Concubine Xue was the Empress Dowager's savior. How could the Empress Dowager be willing to abandon her if the Emperor did not hesitate?
Look, Concubine Xue served the empress dowager without taking off her clothes, and within a few days, the empress dowager's health was restored.
When the news spread outside the palace, Earl Rong'an and his wife were overjoyed!
The whole family is celebrating, just like the New Year.
This shot of cardiac stimulant came at the perfect time, and everyone in the Rong'an Earl's Mansion was greatly encouraged.
Mrs. Rong'an suddenly became tough, but before she could make a high-profile statement to deny the rumors that had been circulating in the city, Xu Zhichun had already made the statement.
Xu Zhichun said that he had nothing to do with the Rong'an Marquis's Mansion. No matter what the Rong'an Marquis's wife did or did not do in the past, it was her own business and had nothing to do with him.
So, please just watch the show and don't involve her.
Mrs. Rong'an was a step too slow in trying to "refute the rumor" and was very angry. She almost vomited blood in anger.
As for the Xu family, let’s wait and see!
If it weren't for the fact that Concubine Xue in the palace might still need the help of Xu Zhichun and Liang Minglang, Lady Rong'an would have wanted to publicly announce that all the rumors about the Rong'an Marquis's Mansion and Xu Zhichun were just rumors.
Why would he take this unfilial daughter back? Would he want to piss them off to death?
Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager suddenly issued an imperial decree to summon Xu Zhichun to the palace.
As soon as Xu Zhichun heard that someone had come from the Empress Dowager's palace, he knew that the visitor had no good intentions.
The Empress Dowager started to make a fuss, and even the Emperor had to give in. Fortunately, the Queen was lucky this time and was pregnant, so the Emperor could confidently "politely decline" any request from the Empress Dowager on behalf of the Queen.
Otherwise, the Queen would have no idea what kind of trouble she would have been subjected to by the Empress Dowager using the excuse of attending to her illness.
In the past, there was a queen who had to endure the pain even if she was made sick by the queen mother. Otherwise, the queen mother would complain that the queen was unwilling to serve her and was pretending to be sick. Even if there was an imperial physician to see her, the queen mother would not believe it at all and insisted that the emperor was worried about the queen and forced the imperial physician to lie.
Xu Zhichun versus the Empress Dowager. Needless to say, what was the outcome?
She simply avoided him and let Lu Yin act according to circumstances.
Sure enough, the Empress Dowager's people asked Xu Zhichun to come to the palace for an audience, and the Empress Dowager wanted to speak to her.
Lu Yin secretly cried out, "Oh no! I absolutely can't go there! At least not like this."
Otherwise, who knows what the outcome will be?
Lu Yin's mind worked quickly, and she immediately responded with a smile, "Mrs. Liang is worshiping Buddha, and it's unknown how long it will take for her to have some free time."
Therefore, we have to wait until Mrs. Liang finishes worshipping Buddha, and she will report it in detail.
While Lu Yin was apologizing and explaining, she stuffed a big red envelope into the visitor's pocket. Seeing this, the visitor gave her face and went back to the palace to report.
"Sister, what should we do? I didn't expect the Queen Mother to actually help the Xue family. That Concubine Xue has revived. She must have said something to the Queen Mother. I sent her away today, but I'm afraid there will be another time."
Xu Zhichun smiled and said, "It's good enough that we can get rid of them today. Luckily you're here!"
Lu Yin suddenly smiled awkwardly, "Sister, why are you being so formal with me? You've helped me so much, so I should do something for you. I'm so happy to be able to help you."
As she spoke, she sighed softly, fearing that it was too early to be happy.
Xu Zhichun comforted her and asked someone to quickly invite Liang Minglang back. There was no time to lose, the sooner the better to make things clear. Who knew what the Empress Dowager was thinking?
A strong dragon will not fight a local snake, let alone a real dragon.
If the Queen Mother is really determined to do something, she is just an ant.
After thinking a few thoughts in her mind, Xu Zhichun made up her mind: If the current situation really has no solution, then she would just take a step back, and at worst leave Beijing.
You don't have to go too far, just settle down in Jinan for a while, and buy some property, such as shops, houses, and fields. Develop them, and maybe in three to five years you'll become the richest man without realizing it.
She now has the capital, the goods, and the connections. If she can't make a success of it, then she can forget about it.
On the contrary, she really didn't want to develop her career in the capital. After all, there were powerful people everywhere, and there were countless royal relatives, which made it easy to attract hatred.
There are many places where you can't make money. Why bother fighting with those people?
Liang Minglang came back soon, "Zhichun! Are you okay?"
"It's okay. I've dealt with it for now. I didn't dare to enter the palace. Is it okay to refuse the Queen Mother?"
"It doesn't matter," Liang Minglang quickly shook his head, and then sighed, "Fortunately you refused, otherwise you would have suffered in vain."
The Queen Mother would not bring her into the palace just because she had good news.
"We've dealt with it today, but what about the future?"
Liang Minglang thought for a moment and said, "Think of a way to keep the Queen Mother from saying anything in the long run."
Xu Zhichun smiled and said, "In that case, let's say I'm going to fast and worship Buddha. I need to copy a few volumes of scriptures before I can finish. It will take half a month at the fastest and one or two months at the slowest."
Don't be too decisive in your words.
Liang Minglang nodded happily and chuckled: "Okay, okay, this is a good idea, Zhichun still has the solution!"
Xu Zhichun smiled. Now that she had said this, it couldn't be a joke. It would be disrespectful to the Buddha, so she really intended to copy the scriptures.
Liang Minglang sneered: "The Queen Mother is trying to win over our family and make our family, and even the Ji family, serve her purposes. It's really a joke."
It's a joke, but it's hard to get rid of.
Fortunately, Xu Zhichun did not admit his relationship with the Rong'an Marquis' Mansion at the beginning, otherwise it would have been even more difficult.
When serving as an official in the court, there are many complicated aspects to consider. If you are not careful, you will give people a chance to criticize you and cause endless trouble.
Xu Zhichun: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you going to do nothing?"
Liang Minglang shook his head. "I'm afraid the Emperor has reached the limit of his patience. He summoned me yesterday for questioning, specifically asking if you had any connection with the Rong'an Marquis's Mansion. Of course, I denied it. Just wait and see. The Empress Dowager is pressing harder and harder, and the Emperor won't tolerate it forever."
