Chapter 169 Nine Ileum 01
The Bo family did not see Bo Ruoyou in person when she first became the county head. A few days later, she came to visit her again. The Wei family also brought Bo Yixuan with her, speaking respectfully and humbly. Although Bo Yixuan did not want to imitate Wei Although he was so groveling, he also knew that what Bo Yixian said earlier was mostly malicious speculation, and he never thought that Bo Ruoyou would be registered as the county head.
The title of the county head came from Cheng Yunzhi and had nothing to do with the Bo family. Moreover, she was also accused of being married to Marquis Wu Zhao. His Majesty personally granted the marriage. What an honor it was. Bo Yixuan met Bo Ruoyou later. , I really want to kneel down.
After learning that he was going to perform rituals at Xiangguo Temple next month, Wei immediately said: "We should all go to perform rituals for the third brother and his sisters, especially Yixuan. He is a junior. Let him do it with you. I wonder what day it is?"
The eighth day of the winter lunar month is the anniversary of the death of Mr. and Mrs. Bo Jingxing, and the religious ceremony will be held on the seventh day of the lunar month for seven consecutive days. But Bo Ruoyou didn’t want anyone else to interfere. Before Cheng Yunzhi could say anything, she said, “Let the second aunt worry about it. I have not returned to Beijing in these years, nor have I paid my filial piety in front of my father and mother. This time I just want to go and fast for a few days without bothering my second aunt."
How could Mrs. Wei not understand, she would not force herself. After leaving Cheng's house, Mrs. Wei sighed, "If I had known this, we should have walked around more a few months ago. Who would have thought that she would be so lucky? ?"
Bo Yixuan felt aggrieved, "Why does mother have to be so pretentious?"
Ms. Wei's face changed when he heard this, and he poked Bo Yixuan on the forehead with a finger, "What do you know? Mother is doing this for you. She will be the wife of Marquis Wu Zhao in the future. What status is Marquis Wu Zhao? With just one word from him, our whole Mr. Bo has no future, but as long as he is happy, what will happen to your uncle even if he is a criminal? Yixuan, do you want to be dragged down by the big house for the rest of your life?"
Bo Yixuan is naturally not a person without ambition, but now that Bo Jingqian has been convicted, although he has the opportunity to do scientific research, the Bo family has lost all connections in the court, especially when the eldest family and the Lin family broke up, and he was even afraid that he would be against.
It can be thought that he was so indifferent to Bao Ruoyou before, and now he is licking his face, which makes him feel that his dignity has been lost. After all, he is a scholar and always values face.
Ms. Wei saw what he was thinking, sighed and said: "We were all harmed by the big house, and you were also bewitched by Bo Yixian. Don't help her again in the future. It's them who have led to this situation. It’s their own fault and let them suffer it themselves.”
Bo Yixuan frowned, "I haven't talked to her for many days."
Bo Yixuan felt even more aggrieved when he thought of this. In the past, he cherished Bo Yixian as his biological sister. When she wanted to see Lin Zhao, he would ride a horse for her. When she said that Bo Ruoyou was contemptuous, he believed it. She was biased against her every time, but five days ago, just because he didn't want to go to Lin Zhao to plead for her, she turned into a different person and spoke extremely vicious words to him, without caring about the relationship between brother and sister.
Bo Yixuan was extremely disappointed. He never expected that Bo Yixian had such a ferocious face under her elegant and virtuous appearance.
……
It was already the end of October, so Bo Ruoyou didn't need to go to the Yamen every day to answer the questions, so she went to Xiangguo Temple. The Huo Wei Tower in the temple was really well-arranged, so she only waited until the seventh day of the lunar month before going to the temple to perform rituals. On the first day of the winter, the Yamen collected all the certification evidence, and then Bo Ruoyou went to the Yamen to see the final decision.
When she left, Zhao Yu had already passed the hall and entered the cell awaiting trial. In the court, Zhao Yu confessed to all the crimes. The clerks gathered the evidence and entered it into the file. After the case was finalized, it could be sent to the Ministry of Punishment for sentencing.
Seeing Wu Xiang, Bo Ruoyou asked: "Is this case settled?"
Wu Xiang breathed a long sigh of relief, "It's over! It's over, Lao Wu, I can finally rest for a few days."
Now that the weather has turned cold, Wu Xiang vomited white mist as he spoke. His clothes were thin and he couldn't help but rub his hands. Bo Ruoyou pondered for a moment, "Zhao Yu still insisted that Master Qian and that senior brother are dead. ?"
Wu Xiang nodded, "Yes, I interrogated him several times later, and he didn't look like he was cheating."
Bao Ruoyou showed hesitation, Wu Xiang looked around and whispered: "The murderer was Zhao Yu. When we caught him, we enforced the law impartially and did not show favoritism. This is enough. Even if there is really something inside, There is no need to expend manpower and material resources to investigate, and since he is avenging his master and his wife, it can be regarded as somewhat righteous."
Bo Ruoyou was about to say something but stopped, "This is indeed the case in the world, but..."
Wu Xiang grinned and said, "Xiaobo, don't think I'm rough and rude, but I don't accept death. Right and wrong are up to people's minds. What's more, the word "emotion" is also at the top of the list. "
Bo Ruoyou never felt that Wu Xiang was straight and unflexible. On the contrary, he had a clear sense of good and evil, and had a heroic spirit of eliminating violence and peace. He was never afraid of hard work and valued friendship, which is very good in ordinary times. But when it comes to tolerances, you need to know how to measure it.
Bo Ruoyou was just a 'guest', and he was still an adulterer. It was hard to argue with Wu Xiang at this time, and thinking that her suspicions were unsubstantiated, he gave up the idea of pursuing it. Isn't she very Who should be punished? However, the circumstances of this case are still unclear. There is still a mystery that has not been revealed before the truth, which makes me feel uncomfortable.
She sighed, "That's all, maybe I'm overthinking it. It's hard work these days to catch the head, so I can take a few days off."
Wu Xiang said: "I hope so. It's almost the end of the year. Usually at the end of the year, there is not much peace in the capital. I'm afraid that I won't be able to rest for a few days without being busy."
Bo Ruoyou naturally understood, and after talking to Wu Xiang for a while, he left the Yamen.
Nothing happened in the next few days. Bao Ruoyou also helped Cheng Yunzhi buy a dowry for her. No matter who Bao Ruoyou married, the dowry was indispensable. What's more, she was still marrying Wu Zhaohou when Cheng Yunzhi had her Cheng family confiscated. All the hidden wealth was brought out this time, which made her dowry list look better. Bo Ruoyou looked at it and felt very guilty.
She suddenly thought of the relics of her father and mother. She had no intention of fighting for the property of the third family in the Bo family, but her mother's dowry back then was very expensive. This dowry was originally her mother's private property and had served the Bo family for many years. She has benefited a lot from her possessions. It would be fine if the third wife had no children. Now with a daughter as big as her, it is absolutely impossible for this private property to fall into the hands of other Bo family members.
With certain thoughts in mind, Bo Ruoyou mentioned it to Cheng Yunzhi. Cheng Yunzhi also felt that this was the right thing to do, so he ordered Zhou Liang to deliver the letter to Bo. He thought that Bo would not be able to return it easily. The next morning, Wei He took Bo Jingli and the two accountants to Cheng's house and presented them with the accounts for the past years one by one without any secrets.
They were easy to talk to, and Bo Ruoyou saved her efforts. In the next two days, she took Zhou Liang to several shops left by her mother. She handed over her mother's dowry property to President Cheng Yunzhi, so that it would not cause any trouble. Cheng Yunzhi was as troubled as before.
On the seventh day of the lunar month, Huo Weilou waited for him at Cheng's house early in the morning, and then went to Xiangguo Temple with his father and daughter. This ritual would last for seven days, and Bo Ruoyou had to perform a seven-day fasting ceremony in the temple. .
Bo Ruoyou and Cheng Yunzhi rode in a carriage, while Huo Weilou rode on horseback. When they left the city, they saw a bleak winter outside the city. Fortunately, the sun was high in the sky, and it was not too cold. Looking at the sky, Bo Ruo thought of the rain and snow dojo mentioned by Huo Qinghong, and spoke to Huo Weilou, "It has been more than a month since there has been any rain, and the first snow this year has not yet arrived. Is the dojo that the prince mentioned is still there?"
Huo Weilou said: "It has stopped. Qin Tianjian said that it will snow this month."
Bo Ruoyou understood. When the carriage arrived at Xiangguo Temple, Bo Ruoyou and Cheng Yunzhi went to worship in front of the memorial tablet. After the first ritual was completed, the sun had already set in the west, and Cheng Yunzhi did not need to stay in the temple for a long time. He left his good aunt to take care of him and returned to the city first.
Huo Weilou stayed with her in Xiangguo Temple for three days. On the afternoon of the third day, Lu Ke came to look for her and said that His Majesty had an edict. He had just returned to the capital and entered the palace to meet the saint. For the remaining three days, Bo Ruoyou was at In the temple, fasting and praying with peace of mind have comforted the spirits of father and mother in heaven.
On the thirteenth day of the winter lunar month, the last ritual ceremony in the morning was completed, and the seven days were considered complete. Bo Ruoyou thanked all the masters, and recited scriptures in the Buddhist hall for another half an hour before preparing to say goodbye and leave. When he came down from the mountain gate, Bo Ruoyou was stopped by someone.
"Bozuo——"
The sound became more and more powerful. Bo Ruoyou stopped and turned around, and saw a familiar face. The person who came was a man in green clothes. He was handsome and elegant. It was Liu Yan, whom he had not seen for many days. Bo Ruoyou was slightly surprised for a moment. He had never thought that he would meet him. Meet him here.
"Master Liu?"
Liu Yan stepped forward quickly, bowed his hands and saluted, "I was too abrupt, now I should be called the county lord."
Bo Ruoyou curled his lips and said, "Young Master Liu, there is no need to be polite. Today is not the Buddha's birthday. Young Master Liu is here..."
Liu Yan's eyes darkened when he heard this, "We already have incense here in our house. Since the last incident at home, my father and the others have become more believers in Buddhism, saying that the karma created by the family can only be resolved by doing more good deeds." , so I have to come to the temple almost every half month."
A few months have passed since the Liu family's case, and Bo Ruoyou is filled with regret when she thinks about it. At this time, Liu Yan asked her again why she was here, and said: "I heard from the prince that the county master helped the Yamen to solve the case again." We have solved two cases, one of which is an old case from more than ten years ago."
Bo Ruoyou first did something for his parents, and then asked in confusion: "The prince? The prince of Huo Guogong?"
"Exactly, a few days ago, a dojo to pray for rain and snow was set up in the south of the city. Several mansions with noble titles in the city took the lead together with Taichang Temple. Although our mansion has lost its title, we still did our part. At that time, when someone mentioned the marriage contract between the Marquis and the county lord, the prince mentioned that the county lord had done something for his wife."
Liu Yan said implicitly, "At that time, some people heard that the county lord was now helping in the yamen. They didn't believe it, so the prince told the county lord's achievements together, which impressed everyone."
Bao Ruoyou could imagine that many people would question such an occasion. As a lowly slave, she would marry Marquis Wu Zhao, which would attract attention and criticism. She seemed to be able to think of Huo Qinghong's beaming eyes. He praised her appearance, he was of noble status, and he was Wu Zhaohou's most beloved younger brother. Such words would silence others.
Bo Ruoyou felt warm in his heart, "I don't dare to claim credit, just do what I can."
She was not familiar with Liu Yan after all, so she said goodbye after a few words and left the mountain gate. Under the mountain gate, there were already attendants from the Hou Mansion waiting for her. She got on the carriage and returned to Beijing. She went to the Hou Mansion first and learned that Huo Weilou had entered the palace. He didn't return home until he returned.
I was quite tired from the fasting ceremony in the temple. Bo Ruoyou accompanied Cheng Yunzhi to have dinner and then took a rest early. When he fell into a drowsy sleep, he heard the rustling cold wind outside the window. She folded up her brocade quilt and fell asleep again. When she opened her eyes the next morning, she found that the sky outside the window was particularly bright. She wondered for a moment that she had woken up too late. After changing her clothes, she got up and opened the window to look, only to see that everything was crystal clear and white!
It snowed heavily last night!
A chill hit her face, but Bo Ruoyou's eyes were bright, and the fine snow foam was still flying, and she went out happily.
She walked into the snow, making a crunching sound under her feet. Looking back, she saw a series of small footprints in the snow. She smiled and hurriedly went to the front yard to go to her room, but she hadn't reached the yard yet. At the door, he saw Wu Xiang following Zhou Liang, coming from the direction of the mansion gate.
She stood still and her smile slowly faded.
When Wu Xiang saw her, he also quickly walked towards her.
