Chapter 506 507 [Luofu has a husband]

  When Xiangyun heard that Chen Weiyuan was coming, his face turned pale with fright.

   "Don't be surprised, ma'am! After all, this is the mansion of a second-rank official, and he dare not trespass." Seeing this, Xiang Nan quickly comforted me.

  Xiang Yun felt at ease when he heard this.

  Xiang Nan is not only a second-rank official, but also a favorite of the emperor. And Chen Weiyuan is just a bookseller, no matter how rich he is, he is just an ordinary person.

  The so-called people do not fight with officials! It is impossible for him to come to the thatched cottage to play wild!

   "Xiaoyue, take your wife to the backyard to rest." Xiang Nan then ordered, "Old Cai, bring Chen Weiyuan to the living room."

   "Yes, sir." Lao Cai nodded.

  …

  Xiang Nan then came to the living room and sat down.

   A moment later, Lao Cai led a man who was described as wretched and staring at him into the room.

   "The villain Chen Weiyuan has met Mr. Ji." The man stepped forward and kowtowed.

   "Boss Chen doesn't need to be so polite, please get up." Xiang Nan smiled slightly, "Myolie, let's have some tea."

   "Thank you, sir." Chen Weiyuan said hastily.

"Boss Chen, I've heard of your name. Liulichang is a well-known bookseller. Out of 100% of books sold in bookstores in the capital, at least 20% are printed by Boss Chen. That's amazing." Xiang Nan said again, "But I don't know if I came to the door today. , what advice do you have?"

   "Don't dare to see the teaching." Chen Weiyuan waved his hands again and again, "Master Ji, is there a woman named Xiangyun? She is my first wife, and I want to take her home."

"Xiangyun?" Xiang Nan was taken aback, "I'm not very clear about this. Boss Chen should know that there are always two or three hundred people in my Ji family. I really don’t know much about the back house. How about this, I’ll ask Miss Xiaoyue to come out and ask.”

   After a while, Xiaoyue arrives.

   "Xiaoyue, is there a woman named Xiangyun in our mansion?" Xiang Nan asked.

   "No, sir." Xiaoyue shook her head and said.

   "Boss Chen, did you hear that?" Xiang Nan looked at Chen Weiyuan and said.

   "My lord, she might have changed her name. Could you please come out with all your family members so that I can examine them one by one?" Chen Weiyuan asked with a smile.

   "Presumptuous!" Xiang Nan slapped the table, "Where do you think my Ji Mansion is? My family is up to you?!"

   "My lord, forgive me, my lord. It's because Chen misses his wife so much, that's why he said nothing. My lord, forgive me." Chen Weiyuan said hastily.

   "Hmph, I just want to ask you, who told you that Mrs. Zun is in my Ji Mansion? Tell me!" Xiang Nan scolded.

   "My lord, it was my servants who saw it." Chen Weiyuan was taken aback, and said hastily.

"Boss Chen dares to come to my Ji manor to ask for someone just based on the words of a few slaves?" Xiang Nan sneered, "It seems that I, Ji Xiaolan, a dignified second-rank official, is really not a thing in the eyes of Boss Chen. "

   "Don't dare, dare not." Chen Weiyuan waved his hands again and again.

   "Since you don't dare, get out!" Xiang Nan slapped the table and said, "If you dare to disturb again, I will send you to Shuntian Mansion with just one post!"

   "Yes, yes!" Chen Weiyuan hurriedly said goodbye.

  …

   "Sir, you are really capable. You scared him away with a few words." Du Xiaoyue laughed.

   "Sir, thank you very much." Xiang Yun also expressed her gratitude, she really didn't want to go back to that despicable, dirty and obscene husband.

   "You're welcome." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "Don't be too happy, in my opinion, Chen Weiyuan will not let it go."

   "Don't be afraid, next time he dares to come, I will break his leg." Du Xiaoyue said fiercely.

"It's useless. He's not stupid, and he won't bring people to rob people." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "What I'm worried about is that he will use public opinion to force me to hand over my wife. He is a well-known bookseller in the capital, and he wants to stir up public opinion Not difficult."

   "Yes, Chen Weiyuan is despicable and shameless, and he has colluded with many local hooligans and corrupt officials." Xiang Yun nodded, "It is not difficult for him to spread rumors and make trouble.

   In a few days, there may be rumors in the capital that Mr. Ji has abducted a married woman. This will greatly damage the reputation of Mr. Sir, I'd better leave Ji Mansion. "

   "Hey, if you really leave my place, you will fall into their trap." Xiang Nan waved his hands.

   "However, if I stay, my husband's reputation will be ruined." Xiang Yun said it wrong.

  The literati attach the most importance to reputation and integrity. Ji Xiaolan is known as the most talented person in the world, dares to speak for the common people, and fights against corrupt officials.

  However, once he gets involved in this kind of corruption case, his reputation will be ruined. Not only will it affect his official career and image in the hearts of the people, but it will even leave him with a bad reputation for thousands of years.

   Just like Ouyang Xiu in the Song Dynasty, he was falsely accused of having an affair with his niece, not only was his official career interrupted, but he died in depression. Moreover, this rumor has been circulated to this day, and it is still being discussed by many people.

  Zhu Xi, known as Zhu Zi, was also rumored to take nuns as concubines, have adulterous daughter-in-laws, be infatuated with little widows, etc., so that a generation of academic masters was smeared as hypocrisy and hypocrites, and had to return home and die in depression.

  To this day, these rumors are still circulating, and there are many believers, making Zhu Xi controversial. His Neo-Confucianism was also dismissed as pseudo-science.

  The overturning of the previous vehicle and the lesson of the latter, we must be cautious.

"Sir, I'd better go." Xiangyun said, "The manuscript of "Dream of Red Mansions" is already in Mr.'s hands, and Mr. has already begun to rehabilitate it. I have done what I should do, and I have no regrets. I will die. , you can also explain to Xueqin."

   "No, Xiangyun, you can't go." Xiang Nan waved his hands again and again, "If I, Ji Xiaolan, push you, a weak woman, into the tiger's mouth in order to protect my reputation, then what kind of gentleman am I?

  Xiang Yun, just say what other people like to say. I, Ji Xiaolan, walk upright and walk straight, I never care about these things! "

"Xiangyun also wants to be with Mr. by his side all his life, but as a member of the Chen family, Xiangyun really doesn't dare to have such delusions." Hearing what he said, Xiangyun couldn't help being moved, "Sir, you'd better let me go .”

   "The Chen family?! That scumbag who is full of money and has the heart to send his wife to be an undercover agent in order to make money?" Xiang Nan sneered, "Ma'am, are you still willing to follow him?"

   "Of course I don't want to, but I can't bear to hurt my husband." Xiangyun said painfully, "I know Chen Weiyuan, he can do anything."

   "I know, but I'm not afraid." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Madam, please stay patiently in Ji's mansion for two more days, Ji will definitely save you from the sea of ​​suffering."

   "Sir..." Xiang Yun begged again.

"Ma'am, just trust Ji once more. Since we met until now, what has Ji failed to accomplish?" Xiang Nan persuaded, "If you don't trust Ji, Ji has nothing to say. If Madam leaves, Ji will not stop her."

  Xiang Yun couldn't help but nodded when he heard what he said, thinking of what he had seen and heard in the past few days.

  Xiang Nan first kept the manuscript of "Dream of Red Mansions", and played tricks on Fukang Anyitong, and now he is going to reverse the verdict of "Dream of Red Mansions". One by one, one by one, they all succeeded immediately, which is amazing.

  He said he could help himself out of the sea of ​​suffering, and maybe he could.

   Thanks to the book friend Mo Xueyiyun for the reward, I am very grateful!
