    ?

    The law of the Jin Dynasty stipulated that the crime of false accusation was false accusation.  It means fabricating facts to slander others, and once investigated and dealt with, the false accuser will be punished with the crime of falsely accusing others. If he falsely accuses someone with a reputation, the crime will be increased by one degree; if he falsely accuses an official, the crime will be increased by two degrees;  The maximum penalty for punishment is 100 floggings and 3,000 li imprisonment.

    Jiang Erchun and his wife falsely accused Jiang Liu of being unfilial. Although Jiang Liu hadn't been formally appointed as an official, as the number one scholar in the new discipline, he could be regarded as one of the officials.  Jiang Erchun and his wife were sentenced to eighty days of flogging and exiled to Kunnu City for ten years.

    Kunnu City is a place where the imperial court exiles serious criminals who have committed serious crimes. People there need to undertake heavy labor to obtain basic living materials. They have no freedom and will be tattooed before entering the city.  The word slave, even if he comes out of Kunnu City after serving his sentence, others will know that he was once a sin slave.

    Therefore, for many people, exile in Kunnu City is a more miserable punishment than death. Every year, many sinners in Kunnu City commit suicide because they cannot bear such a life.

    Before Jiang Erchun and Su Panyun had time to enjoy the affluent life promised by the people who found them, they were taken away from Lu's house by the yamen servants who came earlier.

    After suffering eighty slaps, before the bruised wounds healed, the government servants chained his hands and feet with iron chains, and followed a group of criminals on the road to Kunnu City.

    At this time, Jiang Erchun and his wife also guessed that this might be Jiang Liu's revenge, but it was too late to regret it now.

    This time, Jiang Erchun and his wife have completely lost their chance to make a comeback. I am afraid that they will never appear in the lives of Jiang Liu's mother and son again in their lifetime¡ª¡ª

    "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, summoneda special gift to the Meng family, a phoenix crown and Xiapei, a pair of jade Ruyi, a pair of emerald Ruyi bracelets, two hundred taels of silver, hereby."

    On the day Meng Yunniang showed off her makeup, an imperial decree came unexpectedly.

    Not only Meng Yunniang, who was kneeling to receive the order, was stunned, but also those noble ladies who came here because of Jiang Zandao's affection.

    They heard from their husbands about Jiang Liu's verbal battle with Lu Guang in court. From the point of view of mothers, they envied Meng Yunniang for having such a filial and caring son, but from the point of view of women, not all of them were women.  They all agree that women remarry after widowhood.

    It's just that now that the emperor issued a decree to reward the Meng family, of course everyone will not be stupid to think that the emperor sincerely appreciates the Meng family. This imperial decree only reveals a signal, that is, the emperor supports the remarriage of widows, and let these old-fashioned ministers weigh it carefully  , Do you want to fight against the imperial power?

    "congratulations."

    These noble ladies are all human beings, and they immediately changed their attitude towards Meng Yunniang, and praised her as the center of the crowd very affectionately.

    And Meng Yunniang was holding the imperial decree, looking at the exquisite Fengguan Xiapei, which was far better than her carefully tailored wedding dress, and she was full of thoughts.

    She thought of the words her son asked her the night after he came back from a parade on horseback after being admitted to the No. 1 Scholar.

    The son asked her if she wanted to marry someone she liked if there were no obstacles.

    That was the first time her son talked about this topic with her eight years later.

    If there is no obstacle?

    Meng Yunniang thinks about Hu Guirong who has never married, thinks about the brief contact with him every day when he brings his servants to the tofu workshop to pick up tofu, the bitterness, joy, lingering, hesitation when the eyes meet again and again

    The relationship that has never really been let go has intensified in the past eight years.

    If there is no secular pressure and prejudice, if it will not affect and hinder her son, Meng Yunniang thought, she is willing. That man has been waiting for her for more than ten years, and they have been unable to ask each other for more than ten years.  For a long time, she wanted to spend it hand in hand with that man.

    It's just that the reality is that she can't marry Hu Guirong again. The so-called no obstacle is just a beautiful miss from her son.

    But Meng Yunniang never expected that after the heart-to-heart conversation that day, in a daze, she would get her long-cherished wish fulfilled.

    Not only the patriarchs and elders of the clan agreed to her remarriage, but even the high-ranking emperor sent her a congratulatory ceremony for her marriage. All this was like a dream.

    But if this is a dream, Meng Yunniang hopes not to wake up¡ª¡ª

    On the day of the wedding, the wedding team carried a total of seventy-two dowries, among which the treasures given by the emperor were the most eye-catching.

    Generally, the dowry of young ladies from rich families is not as rich and expensive as Meng Yunniang's dowry. Except for some relatives, friends and colleagues, most of themThey were all bought by Jiang Liu privately. Meng Yunniang was unwilling to take these things from her son, but she couldn't help but want to be filial and make up for her son.

    It was also at this time that Meng Yunniang knew that her son had sneaked into a small business while studying. I don't know how much money he made, but taking out the dowry would not hurt him.  Come up with a bride price that is equal to or higher in standard.

    With her son's guarantee, Meng Yunniang reluctantly accepted this generous dowry, but she also thought about it, no matter whether she will have children with Hu Guirong in the future, this dowry will be left to Hu Guirong in the future.  Her favorite Dalang.

    This wedding has been talked about by the people in the capital for a long time. Even though more and more widows remarried later, the matter of the number one scholar marrying his mother is still the biggest topic of conversation among the people in the capital¡ª¡ª

    "Yunniang, did you have a nightmare?"

    After a lingering night, Meng Yunniang couldn't resist the drowsiness and fell into a deep sleep, but Hu Guirong was still immersed in the excitement of marrying his beloved woman. With the faint light of dragon and phoenix candles, he watched Meng Yunniang for a whole night, reluctant to close his eyes.

    He was afraid that if he closed his eyes again, Yunniang would not be by his side when he opened them again.

    It's just that when the sky just dawned, Meng Yunniang seemed to be having a nightmare, her expression became agitated, her brows were furrowed, and her hands and feet were constantly struggling.

    Hu Guirong hurriedly hugged her tightly and fixed her waving limbs, lest she hurt him.

    "What a terrible dream."

    When Meng Yunniang opened her eyes, she still couldn't tell the difference between dreams and reality. It wasn't until she felt the hot body temperature between each other that she believed that everything she had experienced was real.

    "Don't be afraid, it's just a nightmare. I will go to your nightmare and protect you in the future."

    Hu Guirong said solemnly that he promised that Jiang Liu would protect Yunniang well, and naturally he would guard her in the nightmare.

    Meng Yunniang put her face on Hu Guirong's chest. She knew that this man was not good at lying, as long as he promised, he would do it. In that nightmare, he did guard her for the rest of his life.

    It's just that the nightmare was too scary. In the dream, because of Jiang Erchun and his wife's framing, she had to disfigure her appearance in order to protect herself. Finally, her son was admitted to Juren, and because of the dispute with his wife in his later years, the house was restless.  Lived his life in a muddleheaded manner, and delayed his son.

    On the contrary, the man in front of her was always the same no matter in the dream or in reality, silently guarding her.

    Meng Yunniang still remembers that in the dream, she who was about to die held her son's hand and said that she had wronged someone, and the person she said was wronged was the person in front of her.

    "Shall we have a baby?"

    Meng Yunniang couldn't help but speak.

    "good!"

    Hu Guirong froze for a moment, then nodded ecstatically.

    In fact, he has long been prepared to have no children, but now that Yunniang has said that she will give him a child, a child of him and hers, how can Hu Guirong not be excited and happy.

    Looking at her husband who was smiling like a fool, Meng Yunniang couldn't help laughing.

    It's different, her life is completely different from that nightmare, and indeed the dream is just a dream¡ª¡ª

    Four years later.

    Four years ago, the reform to encourage widows to remarry made Jiang Liu a big hit. The imperial court revised the laws of Jin, stipulating that husbands cannot force widows to observe chastity, and the dowry is women¡¯s private property. If widows remarry, they can take all of them away.  , received thirty floggings, and served five years of hard labor

    Because of the emergence of this law, the lives of widows in the Jin Dynasty improved a lot at once, and Jiang Liu also became a living Bodhisattva in the hearts of those widows who benefited from it.  He was reused and promoted, but according to the usual practice, he was sent to the Imperial Academy and became the seventh-rank editor of the Imperial Academy.

    But anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the emperor was tempering his temper.

    Three years ago, at the Jiang Furong and Ji banquet, Jiang Sandao announced his daughter's marriage to Jiang Liu, but he wanted to keep his daughter for a few more years and send her to marry after her eighteenth birthday.

    Today is the day of great joy for Jiang Liu and Jiang Furong.

    After a night of Spring Festival, Jiang Furong and Jiang Liu washed up under the service of the maid. Jiang Furong was about to draw eyebrows in the mirror, but Jiang Liu took the eyebrow pencil from her hand, and then held her face, carefully brushing it for her.  depict.

    "Madam is very beautiful."

    After drawing the eyebrows, Jiang Liu gently tapped the tip of the little wife's nose, and said with a smile.

    For some reason, Jiang Furong thought of what his mother had said to coax his father every morning when he was at home.

    Unlike her father, she still knew the true level of her appearance, but when her husband and son-in-law smiled and said these words softly, Jiang Furong couldn't help but feel his heart shudder.

    She felt that at least she was extremely beautiful in the eyes of the other party.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)At that time, my mother coaxed my father every morning.
