The Analects of Righteous Father’s Collapse
51 Chapter 51
The provisions of the Jin Dynasty law on false accusation are false accusations.It means to fabricate facts to slander others. Once investigated and punished, he will be used to punish the accusers with the crime of falsely accusing others. The maximum penalty for punishment is one hundred gaunts and three thousand lis.
Jiang Erchun and his wife falsely accused Jiangliu of being unfilial. Although Jiangliu had not officially authorized the officer, he was regarded as one of the officials in Xinke, and he should be considered as one of the officials. Jiang Erchun and his wife were sentenced to eighty gauntlets and exiled to Kunnu City for ten years.
Kunnu City is a place where the imprisoned prisoners of death are not dying. The people there need to undertake heavy labor to obtain basic living materials, there is no freedom, and they will be tattooed before entering the city, that is, stabbed in the face The slave character, even if he came out of Kunnu City after his sentence was over, others knew he was once a criminal slave.
Therefore, for many people, the exile of Kunnu City is a more tragic punishment than death. Every year, many criminals in Kunnu City commit suicide because they can't stand that kind of life.
Before the Jiang Erchun and Su Panyun couples had the time to enjoy the prosperous life promised by those who found them, they were taken away from the Lu family by the bureau that had come first.
After being hit by an eighty board, he didn't wait for the wound to open up, and he was locked in his hands and feet with iron chains. He followed a group of criminals on the road to Kunnu City.
At this time, Jiang Erchun and his wife also guessed that this was Jiangliu's revenge, but it was too late to regret it.
This time, Jiang Erchun and his wife had completely lost the opportunity to return to the mountains. I am afraid that they will not appear in the life of the mother and son of Jiangliu in their lifetime.

"The Emperor Fengtian transported the emperor, and he said... Specially grant Meng's Fengguanxia, a pair of jade Ruyi, a pair of jade Ruyi bracelets, two hundred and two hundred silver.
On the day of Meng Yunniang's makeup, a decree came unexpectedly.
Not only Meng Yunniang knelt on her knees, but also the ladies who were hindered by Jiang Sendao's affection.
They listened to their husbands talking about the process of Jiangliu's tongue-and-mouth battle with Luguang in the perspective of being a mother. They envy Meng Yunniang for having such a filial and caring son, but from the perspective of a woman, they are both women, not all of them. All agree with the woman who remarried after widowing.
It's just that the emperor has given the Meng clan now. Of course, everyone will not be silly to think that the emperor really appreciates the Meng clan. This edict only reveals a signal that the emperor supports widows to remarry, so that these conservative ministers should weigh the amount. Do you want to fight against the imperial power?
"congratulations."
These ladies are all elites, and immediately changed their attitude towards Meng Yunniang, and she was very affectionately regarded as the center of the crowd.
And Meng Yunniang holding the imperial edict, looking at the exquisite anomaly, far better than Feng Guanxia, who carefully cut her wedding dress, had a lot of thoughts in her heart.
She thought about the sentence her son asked when she was admitted to the top spot and returned to the street after riding a horse.
The son asked her whether she wanted to marry someone she liked if there were no obstacles.
It was eight years after the incident, and the son talked to her for the first time about this topic.
If there are no obstacles?
Meng Yunniang thought of Hu Guirong, who had never married a wife, and thought of the brief contact he took with his little servant to the tofu workshop every day to get tofu. The bitterness, joy, lingering, hesitation when the eyes met again and again...
This relationship, which has never really been let go, has become more and more intense in these eight years.
If there is no worldly pressure and prejudice, and if it does not affect her son, Meng Yunniang thinks that she is willing. The man has waited for her for more than ten years, and they have been asking each other for more than ten years. After a long time, she wanted to spend time with the man.
But the reality is that she can't marry Hu Guirong anymore. The so-called there is no obstacle, just a good miss from her son.
But Meng Yunniang had never imagined that after the heart-to-heart talk that day, she was obsessed with it and she had to fulfill her wish.
Not only did the patriarch and the elders in the clan agree to her remarriage, but even the high heavenly son also sent her the marrying He Yi, which was like a dream.
But if this is a dream, Meng Yunniang hopes not to wake up.
*****
On the day of the wedding, the bridal team raised a total of 72 dowries, among which the treasures of Yuci were the most eye-catching.
In general, the young ladies of the big families do not have the rich and precious dowry from Meng Yunniang’s dowry. Except for the addition of makeup by some relatives, friends and colleagues, most of them are purchased by Jiangliu privately, and Meng Yunniang is unwilling to take these things from her son. However, he was obsessed with filial piety to make up for her son.
It was also at this time that Meng Yunniang knew that her son was studying and secretly made a small business. The exact amount of money he earned did not know, but he could take out these dowry, so that he would not hurt him. When he married, he could take it again. Give a gift of equal or higher regulation.
With her son's guarantee, Meng Yunniang barely accepted this rich dowry, but she also thought about it, no matter whether she would have children with Hu Guirong in the future, this dowry will be reserved for the future She loves Dalang the most.
This wedding made the Beijing people relish for a long time. Even if there were more widows to be remarried later, the matter of marrying the top mother was still the capital of the capital.

"Yun Niang, have you had a nightmare?"
After a long night, Meng Yunniang couldn't resist falling asleep, but Hu Guirong was still immersed in the excitement of marrying her beloved woman. Through the faint light of the dragon and phoenix candle, she watched Meng Yunniang all night long and couldn't close her eyes.
He was afraid to close his eyes, and when she opened her eyes again, Yun Niang would no longer be beside him.
It was just when Skyrim had just broken dawn that Meng Yunniang seemed to have had a nightmare, her expression started to be excited, her brows were locked, her hands and feet were constantly struggling.
Hu Guirong hurriedly hugged people tightly and fixed her waving limbs, fearing she would hurt herself.
"What a terrible dream."
When Meng Yunniang opened her eyes, she still couldn't tell the difference between dreams and reality. Until she felt the hot body temperature between each other, she believed that everything she had experienced in her own life was true.
"Don't be afraid, it's just a nightmare. I will go to your nightmare and protect you in the future."
Hu Guirong solemnly said that he promised that Jiangliu would take good care of Yun Niang, and naturally she would keep her in the nightmare together.
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 keep her for life.
It was just that nightmare was terrible. In the dream, she had to ruin her face for self-preservation because of the frame of Jiang Erchun and her son. Finally, her son was admitted to the family, and because of the dispute with her daughter-in-law in her old age, she became restless. He was confusing his life and delayed his son.
Instead, the man in front of him kept guarding her silently, whether in a dream or in reality.
Meng Yunniang still remembers that she was going to die in the dream and she took the hand of her son and said that she had treated someone badly. The person she treated badly was the person in front of her.
"We have a baby?"
Meng Yunniang couldn't help saying.
"it is good!"
Hu Guirong froze for a moment, then nodded ecstatically.
In fact, he had already made preparations for no children, but now Yun Niang said to give him a child, a child of him and her, how could Hu Guirong not be excited and happy.
Looking at the laughing and fool-like husband, Meng Yunniang couldn't help laughing.
Not the same, her life is very different from that nightmare, and really the dream is just a dream.

Four years later.
The reforms that encouraged widows to remarry four years ago brought the river to the fore. The court modified the Jin law to stipulate that the husband can’t force widows to keep the festival, and the dowry is the woman’s private property. , 30 years of gauntlet, five years of labor...
Because of the emergence of this law, the life of widows in the Jin Dynasty has improved a lot, and the river has become a living Bodhisattva in the hearts of those who benefited from the widows. However, in the following four years, he appeared relatively quiet. Reuse to promote him, but according to the usual practice, he was sent to the Hanlin Academy, became the seventh grade editor of the Hanlin Academy.
But the discerning man could see that the emperor was tempering his temper.
Three years ago, at Jiang Furong and the banquet, Jiang Shendao announced the marriage of his daughter and 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 one night**, Jiang Furong and Jiang Liu were washing under the care of the maidservant. Jiang Furong was preparing to draw an eyebrow at the mirror, but Jiang Liu took the eyebrow pencil in her hand, and then held her face, carefully for her. Fine description.
"My wife is very beautiful."
After drawing his eyebrows, Jiang Liu gently tapped the tip of Xiaojiao's wife's nose and said with a smile.
For some reason, Jiang Furong thought of his mother's coaxing her father every morning when she was at home.
She is different from her father, she still knows the true level of her appearance, but when her husband-in-law smiled gently and spit out this sentence, Jiang Furong couldn't help but feel most embarrassed.
She felt that at least she was really beautiful in the eyes of the other party.
