Chapter 516 A Nian returned home not too late, and he was in good spirits.
Compared with the anxious state when the incident first happened in the palace, A Nian regained his former demeanor.
Seeing his expression, He Zijin knew that the letter must have been given to the Empress Dowager, otherwise, it would not have been possible for him to be so relaxed.
A Nian changed his clothes and sent his servants away, then he said to his sister Zijin, "The late emperor's foresight and foresight are beyond the reach of ordinary people."
Then, he and his sister Zijin detailed the affairs of Ci'en Palace, including what was written in the late emperor's letter.
The content, Anian Tanhua’s origin, basically read it once and memorized it, so it was very detailed.
Anian said, "In the past, many people said that the late emperor was able to obtain the throne because he was raised by the empress dowager.
This is not wrong.
However, the late emperor can have such talents, which shows that the empress dowager How much effort was spent on the late Emperor."
"With such hard work, even if it is a biological mother and child, I'm afraid there will be many shortcomings."
Anian couldn't help but sigh, "At the beginning, I was still a villain and worried that the Empress Dowager would seek power.
My vision was still too narrow.
Fortunately, before his death, the late Emperor reminded me to just follow the Empress Dowager.
The late Emperor has a long-term vision and an open mind, and he is worthy of a wise king. " He Zijin handed the warm water to Anian and said, "It is precisely because the Empress Dowager taught the late Emperor carefully that the late Emperor has entrusted the country today.
One repayment, one repayment, that's more or less the case."
A-Nian was drinking water.
He almost choked when he heard the words "a repayment for a repayment".
He waved his hands and said, "Stop talking about repayment for a repayment."
He quietly told Sister Zijin what Cao had done back then.
You know, Ah Nian said, "This stupid woman is so focused on her business.
She was able to use drugs to induce labor, but now she does such an inhumane thing.
It's not surprising."
He Zijin was a little puzzled and said, "The Empress Dowager is not a soft-hearted person like that."
To put it bluntly, the Empress Dowager has a broad-minded and talented person that is rare in the world, and her temperament is not unkind.
However, Kuanhe and the Holy Mother are two different things.
Hiding the matter of inducing labor for Ms.
Cao like this would be possible if others couldn't bear to hide it for a while.
In He Zijin's knowledge, the Empress Dowager had never been such a person. " Anian thought for a moment and understood, and said, "Sister, you haven't noticed that when Cao gave birth to his son, it was the eighth year of Showa.
At that time, the late emperor was still just a prince.
I heard that Emperor Renzong was seriously ill at that time.
Fang chose the crown prince, and when the Cao family gave birth to a son, the late emperor He is not the crown prince.
The first emperor was only the youngest son, and the King of Qin was the eldest son.
If the late emperor had an internal disorder that caused childbirth, it would be a disgrace.
What's more, it would be frivolous to say that the late emperor was not careful in his internal affairs.
If this matter is made a fuss about, the reputation of the late emperor will inevitably decline."
He Zijin suddenly realized, "I think back then, the Empress Dowager concealed this matter for the sake of the late Emperor's throne."
"I guess this is the first reason," Anian said.
"The Empress Dowager's palace is unfathomable.
Although she kept the matter secret, in the secret files of the Imperial Hospital's envoy, the matter was reported by Dou Yuan at that time.
It was signed by the envoy, and the Empress Dowager personally used the seal. .
If the Empress Dowager had selfish motives for this matter, why would she use the Phoenix Seal?
After all, this confirmed the fact that the Empress Dowager concealed the matter.
But in turn, it made people feel that the Empress Dowager concealed the matter.
This move is not considered dishonest.
At least, the Taiyuan hospital was not allowed to take the blame.

I guess it was for the sake of the late emperor.
After all, the late emperor was raised by the empress dowager.
The late emperor was talented and the empress dowager hoped to give him a push, so she kept the matter a secret these years. , when the late emperor was there , Cao was quite well-behaved, and the Empress Dowager did not mention it again.
However, she did not expect that the late emperor passed away due to illness, and the princes were young, so it was an opportunity to make the emperor's eldest son the new king.
A handle in the hands of the Queen Mother."
Anian said, "The Empress Dowager said repayment with retaliation.
She was soft-hearted at the beginning and hid the matter of inducing labor for the Cao family, which led to Cao's poisoning.
But why didn't the Empress Dowager know about the inducing labor?
That's why we have to be careful about the Cao family.
To be honest, who would have thought that the Queen Mother would poison the Queen Mother in peace and prosperity."
He Zijin said, "It is better for us ordinary people to have peace."
"yes."
After the execution of the Cao family, a group of officials were dismissed immediately, leaving numerous vacancies in the central court.
An Nian even thought about whether to find another place to be released.
However, there was a vacancy in the General Affairs Department, so the Ministry of Civil Affairs directly transferred A Nian to the General Affairs Department to serve as a fourth-level general affairs officer.
Although he was the same fourth-level general affairs officer as before, the General Affairs Department was such an important department that he was simply transferred directly from the bench.
We've arrived at the hot bed.
Because of the new mission, Ah Nian had no choice but to give up his ambition to be outside.
However, the three families did not want to miss this opportunity and gathered together to discuss.
Ah Nian said, "This opportunity is rare.
Now, as long as the Cao family is a party, the last Those who are young will lose their positions.
The group that Cao and Li Shangshu arranged earlier are all in short supply.
Now there are many people who want to be released.
Now is the perfect opportunity. " Shen Su said, "Yes, Ah Xuan and Ah Zhu are planning to take up a foreign post.
I thought that they would all stay in the imperial capital, where my responsibilities are limited.
After all these years, I still have some luck, and now I am in the fourth rank.
They are willing It would be good to go out and do some practical work.”
He Gong thought for a while and said, "What this means is that I think Brother Jun and Brother Xing's hearts are alive."
Anian said, "I have been in Dali Temple for two years in Chongyang, so I have some experience.
Let me see if there is any county magistrate, even if it is a small county, who can be the chief seal officer."
The opportunities that Shen Jiang He's three families could see were visible to most people in the imperial capital.
Fortunately, the three families were not looking for low-level official vacancies, and there was news one after another.
In Chongyang, a county magistrate was also appointed under Beichang Prefecture, but the place was a bit poor, even worse than Shahe County back then.
However, Chongyang has been in Beichang Mansion for many years, and his parents are also there, so Chongyang is very willing to go.
Especially, this is to be a county magistrate, a serious official for the local parents.
The three families are happy that all their plans have been fulfilled, but they have to face another separation of their descendants and brothers.
Madam He made an appointment with the female relatives to go to Xishan Temple to burn incense and burn a few pillars of peace incense for the children who were about to be released.
Madam He also went to Ksitigarbha to burn incense and quietly said to her maid, "I heard that the three clans of the Cao family They are all killed.
Hey, you said, when I came to Xishan Temple to burn incense, I cursed his family in my heart and begged the Bodhisattva to bring bad luck to his family.
Now his family is in bad luck.
Oh, is it because of my curse?
Well, the main reason is that his family was too hateful at first.
People in our family were officials, and his family was a stumbling block.
The reviews were not good, but I was too hateful.
I didn’t expect him to be so clever, and his family is all dead.”

Although the Cao family is hateful, she is not entirely happy because she has died like this and her descendants have been cut off.
He Zijin immediately said, "Grandma, you really think about it.
The Cao family has done a lot of bad things.
Are you the only one who has cursed his family?
Besides, the things his family did were not caused by someone else's curse.
My daughter-in-law was poisoned and killed."
"Mother-in-law, the reason ordinary people can do this is because you burned a few sticks of incense."
He Lao Niang said, "If it weren't for the old saying, you can still do evil if God does it, but you can't live if you do evil yourself.
If all the wives in the world were like the former Queen Mother, this mother-in-law would have died long ago."
"Isn't that true?"
He Zijin followed the old lady's words and comforted her.
The old lady felt much more at ease.
At least she would not think that the Cao family's misfortune was caused by her incense burning in the first place.
When going down the mountain, Mrs.
He was sitting on the sliding pole.
The autumn breeze was refreshing.
Mrs.
He was relieved and she was in good spirits.
She said to Mrs.
Shen, "Tell me about the children.
For the sake of the future of the children, we also I can’t stop the children from letting them go, but I still worry about it in my heart.”
Old Mrs.
Shen smiled, "Yes, I just need to add a few more taels of sesame oil and ask Bodhisattva to bless them and be good officials.
They will have a smooth life."
He Lao Niang agrees very much with this statement.
Later, Mrs.
Shen and Mrs.
Jiang talked about the situation of the children being sent away separately, how to pack up and pay homage, and when they would be able to return after a few years.
In short, the children haven't left yet, and the parents are already counting their return dates with their fingers.
The day of separation came quickly.
He and Shen's family plus Chongyang, the five of them had to be released.
Nowadays, when the court arrests someone, it must be replaced by an official immediately.
Therefore, the inauguration documents are processed very quickly.
Of course, you must also hurry up on the date of your appointment.
Fortunately, when the family was planning to move abroad, they started packing things early, hired a master, and arranged for loyal servants to go abroad with the children.
He Zijin was also busy preparing things for his brother, cousin, and nephews to use on the road.
Ayan came home in a hurry and said to his mother with a happy face, "Mom, my father-in-law promised to betroth Sister Wu to me.
Mom, please go and discuss with your mother-in-law the engagement between me and Sister Wu."
The city was under martial law, and the twins were very nervous for a few days.
Now that everything was safe at home, they started running to the suburbs again.
He Zijin was looking at the list and said, "I'm telling you, go to your grandfather's house and uncle's house more often.
Now you're going to Wu's house again."
Ayan said, "My grandmother and uncle knew that I was planning to marry a wife, so they told me to hurry up."
Seeing his youngest son's extremely anxious look, He Zijin had no choice but to put down the gift list and talk about his youngest son first, "Master Wu really agreed, wasn't he just trying to coax you?"
"Why are you coaxing me?
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
In front of the Cao family, my father-in-law said that he would marry Sister Wu to me."
Ayan spoke eloquently, and then explained the matter clearly, saying, "Mom, don't you know, Aunt Wu's natal Cao family is related to the Cao family in the imperial capital.
This time, the Cao family in the imperial capital is really in danger.
Fortunately, it is not involved.
Otherwise, I don't know what to do.
Mr.
Cao also lost his official position, and Mr.
Cao's reputation was also dismissed.
His family went to Sister Wu's house again, apologized profusely, and wanted to renew the marriage.
My father-in-law was not very happy, and I happened to be there.
Well, my father-in-law He said, Sister Wu has been betrothed to me.
Mother, please go and settle the marriage first, otherwise, the face of the in-law family will not look good.
After all, my father-in-law has said all this, and our family has to continue. " When He Zijin heard about the Cao family, he felt it was strange.
How could he have the shame to go to the Wu family again to seek marriage?
He Zijin had also fallen in love with Miss Wu a long time ago.
When he saw Master Wu, he took the initiative to say so, and Ayan liked Miss Wu so much.
He Zijin smiled and said, "Sure, let's go there right away."
He immediately ordered Wanzi to prepare four items.
Gifts, the same jewelry, the same clothing, the same tea, the same wine.
He Zijin took his youngest son to the Wu family.
When He Zijin arrived, the Cao family had not left yet.
As soon as He Zijin arrived, the Cao family's originally not good looks became even worse.
However, now that the Jiang family has completely turned over, the Cao family has lost its official position and its fame.
The two families are no longer the same.
When Mrs.
Wu saw He Zijin, she hurriedly came out to greet him.
She looked a little embarrassed and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law is here."
Miss Wu came out with her mother and couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
He Zijin smiled and said, "Why should I call her sister-in-law?
It's time to call her in-laws."
The Wu family is actually a little embarrassed.
A family like the Wu family is really upright.
If the Jiang family promised to marry their children when they were in bad luck, and now the Jiang family is prosperous again, it would not matter.
The Wu family can only be happy for the Jiang family. .
However, after the Jiang family prospered, it was the Wu family who took the initiative to propose the marriage, and the Wu family felt a little sorry.
He Zijin didn't care about this.
When A-Nian offended the Cao family and came to Wen Daotang, in fact, the only family that was willing to get close to A-Nian was the Xu and Wu families.
If the Wu family were really snobbish, they would not have gotten close to the Jiang family who had lost power in the first place.
So, in the midst of his busy schedule, He Zijin first exchanged tokens with the Wu family and arranged a marriage for his youngest son.
Wait for an auspicious day to be chosen, and then perform the final ceremony.
As for the Cao family, I only heard that they had returned to their hometown, but no news about them was known later.
After Ah Xuan and Ah Zhu were released on Chongyang Festival, A Xuan and Ah Xuan were released, He Zijin settled on a girl from the Xu family for A Yun.
At this time, because A-Nian was the fourth-rank official in the Jiang family, and the twins were young scholars, many people inquired about the twins’ marriage.
What was even more interesting was that Yi Hanlin, who had previously pretended not to know A-Yan on the street, actually mentioned them again.
Family affairs.

Anian was so angry that he said, "I didn't know there was such a fish caught in the trap."
Someone insulted his son over and over again.
Isn't this an insult to him?
A-Nian was in the limelight, and all the people close to him in the family were from Hanlin's side.
A-Nian had some connections and assigned Yi Hanlin to Leng Yamen.
As for the affairs in the DPRK during this period, Anian completely acted as a spectator due to his position in the DPRK.
Today, I am recovering in the harem due to illness, and the time for recovery may be far away.
After Wei Xiang resigned from the position of chief assistant, Liu Shangshu of the Ministry of War was promoted to chief assistant.
Interestingly, Mr.
Xiao Tang wrote a memorial at that time.
The memorial was not used to refer to people, but to praise people.
The person who praised people was none other than Mr.
Xiao Tang's master, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
Mr.
Li Jiujiang.
Mr.
Xiao Tang started from the story of how his master abandoned his relatives and friends and infiltrated the rebel party to investigate the Cao family's conspiracy.
His praises were endless.
In Mr.
Xiao Tang's words, what kind of character this was. , what a sacrifice, what a selflessness, how great.
Mr.
Xiao Tang praised his master for most of an hour, making the new chief minister Liu Shoufang a little suspicious.
With such a great person as Li Shangshu in the court, was he going to give up the position of chief minister to someone else?
Li Shangshu, who was being praised, couldn't bear to listen and said to Xiao Tang, "Okay, let's talk about the business first.
You can talk about this later."
Mr.
Xiao Tang said solemnly, "Isn't it a serious matter to restore Li Shangshu's innocence?
Li Shangshu sacrificed his reputation and served the country with loyalty.
This is even more of a major matter."
Mr.
Xiao Tang insisted on reading the article praising his master.
The main reason was that the Empress Dowager sitting at the top did not express any objection.
Afterwards, the Empress Dowager rewarded Li Jiujiang generously, clearly expressing her appreciation for this important minister of the dynasty. of importance.
Of course, Li Jiujiang was able to turn against his master and his disciples and establish his own family in order to win the trust of the Cao family and then investigate the Cao family's rebellion.
Even if the Empress Dowager refused to reward him, people also knew in their hearts that Li Jiujiang must be the Empress Dowager's second best choice.
There is no doubt that he is a confidant.
In the blink of an eye, winter comes again.
This year, there is a lot of snow.
Auspicious snow heralds a good harvest.
The plum blossoms at the Wanmei Palace in Xishan were in full bloom, and the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were in even greater spirits.
They held a plum blossom banquet at the Wanmei Palace, and the new aristocrats of the imperial capital gathered together.
He Zijin was lucky enough to go with A Nian.
The couple walked in the plum blossom forest, and He Zijin smiled, "This scenery is really beautiful."
"Yes."
A Nian whispered, "The first time I came here, I didn't bother to look at it.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
This time I will give you a reward."
Seeing that A Nian talked about the first meeting with his biological mother so easily, He Zijin knew that all the old things in his heart were gone and there was no grudge anymore.
He Zijin smiled and said, "Okay."
The couple were looking at the scenery hand in hand.
Suddenly, they met Qi Guogong and his wife, who were newly crowned this year.
Mrs.
Qi Guogong was talking to He Zijin, her eyebrows and eyes were particularly pleasant.
Qi Guogong exchanged greetings with Anian and everyone exchanged a few words.
Qi Guogong said, "The Confucian scholar of His Highness is old and has become an official.
He is looking for a knowledgeable Confucian scholar."
A-Nian smiled and said, "It is so important to give lectures to His Highness.
I have just arrived at the General Administration Department, and I am afraid that I will be distracted for a while and miss His Highness's homework."
Qi Guogong smiled slightly and wanted to persuade him a few more words, but seeing that Anian had already made up his mind, he had no choice but to give up.
After Qi Guogong and his wife left, Wei Shilang, the right minister of the Ministry of Industry, came over and mentioned that the historian of the sixth prince born to Princess Wei De had resigned, and asked Anian what he meant.
Ah Nian still declined.
He Zijin thought, these people in the court must be looking for traces and have their own guesses.
However, Ah Nian no longer wanted to get involved in royal affairs.
Anian said, "Our family has its own life to live."
He Zijin nodded, "Okay."
He Zijin looked at the main building of the palace.
There, there was a golden roof paved with glazed tiles, and on the eaves stood an immortal riding a phoenix.
Under the sunshine and white snow, there was a majestic royal style.
He Zijin could even see a hint of purple on top of the heavy building from a distance.
Today, the world is rich in purple, no one knows who started it.
By the side of the purple, there is a man in green clothes.
The jade-green color made He Zijin vaguely familiar.
In fact, at this moment, the person on the highest floor of the Qiong Tower with the Empress Dowager was Master Chaoyun, an acquaintance of He Zijin.
From the Qiong Tower downwards, thousands of plum trees are in full bloom, and the people wandering in the forest are all the dignitaries of the court, with fragrant clothes and temples, and indescribable wealth and romance.
Taoist Priest Chaoyun looked full of emotion, "Since I left the imperial capital when I was young, I haven't climbed up to the Qiong Tower in decades."
The Empress Dowager said, "I heard someone report earlier that my uncle occasionally came here to enjoy the scenery.
Now that he is here, why don't you take a look at this Qiong Tower."
"This is where the Supreme Being is.
When I was young, I only came here with my mother.
Now, I come here with my empress."
Taoist priest Chaoyun said, "Back then, once my mother left, she never came again.
Empress, Don’t follow her old path.”
The Queen Mother has some ice-like eyes, with natural clarity and insight.
Although the sun was shining brightly, the winter wind carried fine snow particles and swept in.
On the top of this high-altitude Qiong Tower, the wind and snow seemed to be even colder.
The Queen Mother's answer seemed to be carried in the wind and snow to the ears of Taoist Chaoyun.
The Queen Mother said, "Okay."
Taoist priest Chaoyun took a step back, bowed and bowed lightly, supported the servant, and left slowly.
Taoist Chao Yun came down from Qiong Tower, feeling a little heavy.
However, as soon as he left Qiong Tower, he saw his female disciple standing under a plum tree not far away and waving to him, smiling as brightly as the sun.
Immediately, Taoist Master Chaoyun no longer needed help.

He walked over with his arms and legs in a few steps and started talking and laughing with the female disciple.
Under the bright winter sun, with the north wind carrying scattered snow, another era of unparalleled splendor has arrived.
The author has something to say: s: You read it right, the final chapter has arrived.
Because this is the final chapter, I really feel a lot of reluctance, so I spent a whole day writing this chapter.
Shitou is like this every time he finishes writing the final chapter.
"Beauty Chronicles" is a farming novel.
In fact, if you want to write it, you can really write it until Zi Jin's gray hair is gray, but this moment is a very good and complete point.
Because, if we continue writing, the lovely old people He Lao Niang and Master Chao Yun in the article will face death.
Shitou doesn't want to write there, and can't bear to write there.
That's it, this ending is really good.
The people you like are all here, and their lives are moving in a more vibrant and beautiful direction, and that is enough.
This was also the original intention of Shi Tou's story of Beauty.
From the very beginning, Shi Tou wanted to write such a story about a relaxed, warm and laughing urban family.
The protagonists in it are middle-aged, not talented enough, not rich enough, but their days are happy days.
After writing articles for several years, The Story of a Beauty may not be the best work of Shi Tou, but it is definitely the happiest and happiest work that Shi Tou has written.
Thank you all for accompanying me all the way, especially those of you who have bought V all the way and insisted on reading the original version.
I don’t get many replies to your comments, but to be honest, I have basically read every chapter and every article.
I also have your company to let Shitou know that so many people like the stories written by Shitou.
Like is the biggest driving force behind the stone's persistence to this day.
It was even later, but fortunately it was around midnight.
Finally, I wish good night to those who insisted on waiting for the article tonight, and good morning to those who will read the article tomorrow morning.
Finally, let’s celebrate the completion of Beauty Chronicles.
From June 2015 to July 2017, it was a full two years of serialization.
Thank you all for accompanying Beauty Chronicles until now. gd1806102:
