I'm shocked! After breaking off the engagement, the emperor's uncle wants to have a fake m

Hearing this, Lan smiled sinisterly, "That makes sense... But why hasn't the Imperial Observatory predicted an auspicious date yet? As long as this little bitch is so active, I won't be able to have peace!"

Not only the Lan family was worried about this matter, but the director of the Imperial Observatory was also worried.

Empress Dowager Lan sent people every day to urge for an auspicious date.

His Majesty sent another secret decree, asking him to find a reason why he couldn't predict an auspicious day!

With these two huge Buddhas pressing down on his head, he can't afford to offend either of them!

Today, the Queen Mother called him and scolded him harshly, and even threatened that if he couldn't find an auspicious day, he would have to give up the position of Supervisor to someone else.

He came out of Shouxiang Palace with a buzzing head. Before he could fully recover, he was summoned by His Majesty and given a beating.

These nobles were all tyrannical and disregarded the lives of others. He was like a rat in a bellows, being bullied from both sides.

After finally getting off duty and returning to the mansion, he saw the tigress in the backyard with her hands on her hips, angrily scolding her children. He was about to turn around and avoid the limelight when the tigress shouted, "Wang Er, where are you going!"

The supervisor paused with a pale face.

His surname was Wang, and he was the second child in the family. His parents were too lazy to give him a name, so they simply called him Wang Er. Later, when he became famous in his studies, he changed his name to Zhiqiu.

His wife, Zhang, was from the same village as him. They had known each other since they were in open-crotch pants. Her parents were honest farmers. They had been bullied all their lives and finally thought that their descendants should not be bullied like that anymore.

So they decided to choose this fierce and fierce woman who was famous in the area.

After Zhang came into the family, no one dared to cause trouble again, but his life became difficult.

It would have been fine if she was a bit aggressive and overbearing in the countryside, but she could also keep the house in check.

But now that she’s an official’s wife, she still follows the same country ways!

No matter in public or behind others, she never gave her husband any face.

This made all his colleagues laugh at him and call him a henpecked coward.

The key point is that she is strong and sturdy, while he is just a weak scholar. If she wants to beat someone, she will beat him to death! She carries him like a little chicken.

"Madam, I suddenly remembered that I have some unfinished business. Can I go back to the study first?"

Zhang's eyes narrowed, "Why go back to the study? Go back to the study! First take a look at what these bone-changing dragons of yours have written!"

She threw over a stack of decrees.

Wang Zhiqiu picked it up and looked at it, then he burst out laughing.

But after he finished laughing, he realized that the aura was not right. He raised his head angrily, and met Zhang's eyes that were about to pop out of their sockets. His heart trembled, and he lowered his head again.

"Laugh! You can still laugh! Did you teach them to insult me ​​like this?"

So what was written in the decree?

Mother is a tigress. She roars at the sky, the earth, and daddy. Then she roars at her child!

He is strong and has a big mouth, his arms are big and his waist is round, and he has the energy to swallow mountains and rivers!

The other two are paintings.

One of them showed a tiger, and on the tiger's head was a woman's face with angry brows.

The other one was a picture of a lion, and the lion's head was also painted with a woman's face.

There are words on it, namely, tigress, Hedong lion...

Wang Zhiqiu looked miserable, "Madam, I am wronged. I am so busy with my official duties that I have no time to teach them this!"

No matter who taught Zhang, it was the father's fault. Finally, Wang Zhiqiu took his two sons and one daughter, each carrying a bucket of manure and covering his nose to the backyard.

The eldest son is only ten years old, and the boy and girl behind him are twins, a boy and a girl, who are only eight years old this year.

Zhang was impatient to deal with those noble ladies and say sour words, so she just grew vegetables in the backyard when she had nothing to do.

Other officials’ gardens are full of flowers and grass, which are very beautiful.

They have a different way of cooking, hey! It’s all vegetables!

She couldn't finish the food at home, so she pushed a cart to the street to set up a stall and sell it.

There was no servant in the house, and she was responsible for everything. Although her children were naughty, they could take care of themselves and did not need much worry from others.

A friend made in poverty should not be abandoned, and a wife who has shared the hardships of life should not be divorced.

After he passed the imperial examination, he entered the court. Many people advised him to divorce his wife and remarry, but he refused them one by one. Although Zhang was rough and rustic, she was a good woman who was frugal and managed the household. When he was busy studying, she took care of his elderly parents, disabled brother and young sister, and she never complained.

No matter how violent and domineering she was, she never abused her father-in-law and mother-in-law.

She also raised these three children by herself. When he came back from work, he would at most hold them and play with them, but he never helped her in any way.

"Children, don't talk about your mother like that in the future. She is your mother, the one who gave you life and raised you. You must respect and love her, understand?"

The three children covered their noses and answered in unison, "Got it!"

"Especially you, Changjin. You are the eldest son and brother. You should set an example for your younger brothers and sisters and not take the lead in making trouble."

Wang Zhiqiu was pouring manure on the vegetables with a spoon while slowly preaching.

He didn't act like a father, nor did he speak harshly.

Chang Jin lowered his head and did his own thing, "I know, Dad. I won't do it again."

Zhang hid in the corner and watched for a while, then nodded with satisfaction and left.

----

It took some time to receive Qin Sangbai, and it was already past noon when they arrived at Prince Ling's Mansion.

The person who greeted her was not Ah Shang, but another unfamiliar guard. "Hello, young lady. The prince is waiting for you in the main hall."

Mu Qingyan nodded slightly and followed him in.

Prince Ling was indeed waiting in the main hall. He was so bored that he started reading a book.

When he looked up and saw her, he slowly put the book down. Just as Mu Qingyan was about to greet him, he raised his hand and motioned for her to sit down.

"I had guests visiting today and was delayed for some time." Mu Qingyan explained the reason for her late arrival.

"Guests? What guests?"

"The granddaughter of the Minister of the Central Secretariat, Mr. Qin, was having an asthma attack on the street yesterday. I saved her, and she came to my house with gifts to express her gratitude."

Prince Ling smiled, "That's a coincidence. I just recommended her fiancé to serve as an official in the court. The imperial edict was issued yesterday."

Mu Qingyan raised her eyes, and Prince Ling continued, "Her fiancé is the eldest son of the Marquis of Xiangning, Yang Yi."

Oh, so he is my ex-husband’s brother’s brother. That’s really a coincidence.

"Your Highness suddenly brought this up. Could it be that you mind that I was rejected by the Xiangning Marquisate?"

Prince Ling was speechless. He didn't mean that. He just thought it was a coincidence so he said, "I have absolutely no such intention."

"It's useless unless you dare to disobey my order."

At this time, Ah Shang limped in, leading a woman.

The woman came in, knelt down and saluted, then looked at Mu Qingyan, "This servant greets the young lady..."

Prince Ling had already stood up and said, "You two can talk slowly if you have anything to say. I'll be leaving first." What the woman was talking about must involve the backyard of the Duke's Mansion, so it would be inconvenient for him to be there.
