Jiang Fubao didn't even put on his rabbit fur cape, he just went into the yard wearing his new clothes.

At the same time in the imperial city, the guards guarding the city gate made way on both sides, and a fast horse passed through the city gate and galloped in.

Only after the announcement was made did he enter the palace.

At the year-end banquet, Emperor Mingsheng saw the memorial from the border and stood up excitedly, which scared the maid serving beside him. Her arm accidentally knocked over a wine glass.

The wine spilled onto the corner of Ming Shenghuang's clothes, wetting a spot of it.

The maid immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, trembling with fear for her life.

Emperor Mingsheng didn't care at all.

He waved his hand and let her stand up.

There’s no other reason, Ming Shenghuang is in a particularly good mood now.

The report came from the border that not only had they won the battle, but they had also chopped off the head of the enemy leader. The enemy was helpless and was defeated, and even their lair was destroyed.

They have already belonged to the Tianling Kingdom and will not dare to rebel for at least a hundred years.

From now on, his name will go down in history, and future generations will praise his good governance, which will be even better for the people living in the border areas.

For a hundred years, they no longer had to suffer from war and could finally live and work in peace.

"Someone, please move Lord Shen's seat here." Emperor Mingsheng pointed to the seat behind the prime minister.

All the officials at the banquet were stunned.

Shen Hechi is just a minor official, how can he be qualified to sit below the prime minister?

Is there going to be a big change in the court?

Everyone looked at Shen Hechi with a tense face, paying attention to his every move, trying to read something from his face.

Shen Hechi was extremely excited, as he had finally waited for this day to come. He suppressed the smile on his face, took a deep breath, and walked towards that location.

From today on, Shen Hechi's status has completely changed.

Jiang Fubao, who was far away in Lianshan Town, had no idea about this at all.

After the Chinese New Year, she vigorously developed the cultivation of medicinal herbs. Not only the nine villages in Lianshan Town, but even the villages in Baishui Town and Chang'an Town began to plant them.

There are five types of medicinal materials: low-priced and short-term, medium-priced and short-term, low-priced and long-term, medium-priced and long-term, and rare and high-priced.

Jiangjia Village and Zhoujia Village have begun planting rare and high-priced crops, other villages in Lianshan Town have also begun planting medium-priced and long-term crops, and the villages in Baishui Town and Chang'an Town will start with low-priced and short-term crops.

This was a test from Jiang Fubao. If anyone showed up lazy or slack off, they would be treated the same way as in the past in Sunjia Village: all the medicinal herbs would be dug up and they would not be allowed to plant any more.

Fortunately, not many people dare to do this.

They are all honest farmers who just want to earn more to improve their family's life. They are satisfied as long as they have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear. There are many bad people, but not all of them are bad. When they heard that Doctor Jiang was going to take him to make money, everyone was very excited and wanted to kneel outside the Jiang Mansion for three days and three nights to repay the favor.

After the New Year, the verdict for the Sun family came down. Except for the children and Sun Pingmei's sister-in-law who were able to return home, everyone else was sent to prison and would not be released until three years later.

This was a trap set by Zhang Jinlan, and she informed Meng Bujiu about it.

Although he was locked up in jail, he still had three meals a day so he wouldn't starve to death. It was also a lesson for the Sun family.

Let them never dare to cause trouble again.

The Sun family was imprisoned together in the prison, but internal strife broke out among them.

"It's all your fault. You had such a stupid idea that you insisted on buying this love incense. You can buy it, but you should pay for it. Why did you steal someone else's incense? And you got caught. Now we are being blackmailed. No matter how we explain, it's useless. The county magistrate won't listen. I think you did it on purpose. You want to kill us! If you want to die, go alone!"

Sun Pingtian slapped Yan on the face and cursed viciously.

When they were tried by the county magistrate, they had no choice but to tell the truth in order to avoid paying a thousand taels of silver.

They said they thought they were buying aphrodisiac incense, but the man insisted it was some kind of honey agarwood. The magistrate then asked them why they were buying the aphrodisiac incense.

They can only make it clear.

However, the fault was still put on the Yan family. But how could Meng Bujiu let them escape? He directly convicted them as the principal offender and an accomplice.

The others were sentenced to three years, except Yan, who was sentenced to five years.

"Beat her, beat her hard. This little bitch wanted to steal my money and got us thrown into jail. They said she would be released in three years, but I don't know if she'll survive. She really married a jinx. I shouldn't have listened to her if I had known. Bah, a jinx!"

He Xinghua was so angry.

Because their daughter-in-law was greedy for money, they were blackmailed and put in jail.

It will take three years before you can get out.

There was no sunlight here, and if it weren't for the oil lamp outside, she wouldn't be able to see anything.

The smell in the dungeon was extremely bad, as if one had fallen into a pit toilet, and one could faintly smell the odor of dead rats.

The prisoners who have been locked up for a long time don’t have good brains anymore. They start swearing or screaming from time to time, which is creepy to hear.

Regardless of day or night, He Xinghua's daily routine was also disrupted.

I have no idea when it is night, and I can’t go to bed on time like I used to.

In just a few days, she seemed to have aged seven or eight years.

Even his temples are white, and he looks very old.

His slanted eyes looked even more mean, and his cheekbones became prominent, making him look unapproachable.

Sun Mugen was not much better off. He was always a man who cared about his reputation, but he was arrested in front of the people in the city. He was completely humiliated. When he was caught in the county government office, he was beaten with five boards for cursing the officials. His buttocks still hurt until now.

He was old, and he couldn't open his face to complain about his sore buttocks, so he could only bear it. Therefore, Yan was extremely angry. Seeing her being beaten by her son, she felt a little less depressed and felt very relieved.

The food in the dungeon was extremely poor. We only had three meals a day, but they were never enough to fill us up.

It was either boiled cabbage or porridge so thin that you could see your face in it. There wasn't even a side dish, let alone steamed buns.

He wanted to get angry, but he didn't have the strength to do so.

Even standing up was difficult, and all I wanted to do was lie down.

"Son, when you get out, you should divorce her. This evil woman has brought disaster to our family. From tomorrow on, she will only be allowed to eat once a day. Your father and I can't even get enough to eat. You might as well give me two meals of her food."

Sun Mugen said to his youngest son.

"Yes, son, I know. Did you hear me? You have caused so much trouble to our family. If I wasn't afraid that you would starve to death, you wouldn't even think about eating a single meal. These two meals are for you to make amends. If anything happens to my father, you won't have an easy life either! You are such a troublemaker. If I had known, I wouldn't have married you!"

Sun Pingtian is a filial son.

To him, a woman who has made a mistake can never compare to his biological father.

Yan's mouth was swollen from being slapped. She spat out a mouthful of blood foam and frowned in pain.

She had a lot of grievances in her heart.

I regret it so much.
