A prelude to the imperial edict was correct, and He Liangyuan did not achieve his expected goal. After returning home, he stayed in the study and thought hard.

Soon, Qi came to pay his respects.

"My father-in-law, someone needs to accompany Kang Ming before his spiritual position... My daughter-in-law is a little unhappy today. Can my father-in-law ask Dalang to accompany Kang Ming?"

"Boyong still has official business, just let Mingjing go."

Qi was a little embarrassed: "Mingjing is still waiting for guests."

He Liangyuan knew what Qi was thinking when he heard this.

The daughter-in-law dislikes her granddaughter, and he is actually too lazy to care about such trivial matters in the inner house. However, Zuo Mingjing is Zuo Jinglun's granddaughter after all, so it's better to test Zuo Jinglun's attitude.

"As a guest? Who is coming?"

"A concubine of Qian Chengyun's family." Qi said: "The two have been chatting in the house for a day, and I don't know where many words come from."

He Liangyuan felt thoughtful when he heard the name of "Qian Chengyun".

"Since there are guests, you can also go and receive them, so that others will not say that my He family is negligent."

When Qi received the order, he felt a little confident.

She went to Zuo Mingjing's yard and pushed the door open. She saw two girls sitting beside the couch and chatting lively.

"Mother."

"Mrs. He."

Qi nodded and looked at him. Zuo Mingjing's eyes were slightly red, as if she had cried.

She immediately felt unhappy in her heart that He Kangming had passed away for so long, and she didn't see how Zuo Mingjing had cried. Now that her friend has come, she has begun to complain about her grievances, and she is so aggrieved that she cried! It seems that she has been treated so badly by the He family.

"I've been chatting for a whole day. Mingjing, you are also rude and don't treat Miss Qian to eat." Qi said, "You have to prepare some pastries for yourself."

Qian Duoduo looked at him and saw that Qi was smiling and silly when he spoke, he couldn't help but think: Sister Mingjing has called a very fierce mother-in-law.

"I dare not bother my wife, so I will say goodbye now." Qian Duoduo whispered.

She was lucky, but looked up again and was startled.

I saw that Qi picked up the book on the table and looked it out without asking.

"Mrs. He, this..."

Qian Duoduo immediately became a little panicked, but he didn't dare to rob him.

Zuo Mingjing said: "Mother, this is Duoduo's thing, it's not easy to read it casually."

Qi refused to respond, his eyes fell between the lines, and the expression on his face gradually became solemn. He suddenly frowned and ordered his maid, "Go, call the master and the man over."

Zuo Mingjing said again: "It's just a friend of the child who is in the boudoir, why bother grandfather and father-in-law?"

Qi sneered, "Even Miss Qian's family, it's not easy to bring such things to our He family, right? What kind of family is the He family? A scholarly family! How dare you write something evil here? I ask you, how long has Kang Ming been away?"

Zuo Mingjing's expression remained unchanged, and she made a happy wish and said, "My mother's words are wrong. This is just an ordinary book, and it is definitely not the work that her mother said...."

Qian Duoduo lowered her head, looking timid.

But she thought to herself: "The first four chapters are not that at all. Instead, the next few chapters Xiaolang said really makes people wonder how to start writing."

Qi frowned and said sternly: "How can you read a book like this, a widowed person, who is a book that is long and short?

With a shout, the voice suddenly rose.

Qian Duoduo was startled, a little scared, and quickly whispered: "Mrs. He calmed down and returned the book to me. I will never bring it again..."

While talking, He Liangyuan and his eldest son He Boyong had already arrived outside the door.

Zuo Mingjing took a great blessing and called respectfully: "Grandfather, father-in-law."

He Boyong has always been irritated between his father and his wife. He is in his forties and is becoming more and more cowardly. Now his son is dead again, and he is even less energetic. He responds listlessly, then lowers his head and says nothing.

He Liangyuan nodded and said with a stern face: "Why are you quarreling?"

Qi handed over the book in his hand and shouted in a crying voice: "How long has Kang Ming been gone? She was in the house with some leisurely books in the boudoir. She is the granddaughter of the second assistant and cannot be beaten or scolded, but I really can't afford to serve such a daughter-in-law..."

He Liangyuan said unhappily: "What kind of delicacy is it to cry in front of outsiders?"

Qi took his sleeve and wiped the tears from his face, and said aggrievedly: "My daughter-in-law knew her mistake. I just thought of Kang Ming's death and felt uncomfortable."

"A woman, don't say more."

He Liangyuan scolded and said that the matter was revealed.

But the maids around him were already heard in his ears and thought to himself: "I thought the eldest young lady was just a husband, but she still had this kind of character."

They looked at Zuo Mingjing again and became more and more contemptuous.

Qian Duoduo saw it, felt guilty in his heart, and felt a little desperate for Zuo Mingjing.

She looked at Zuo Mingjing with heartache, lowered her head and refused to let herself cry...

On the other side, He Liangyuan reached out to take the book, but handed it to He Boyong, asking him to read it first.

He Boyong looked at it silently.

"Dalang, do you think this book is about the love between men and women?" Qi asked.

Zuo Mingjing still looked quiet and said calmly: "But writing is an ordinary thing, where does the relationship between men and women come from?"

He Boyong didn't say anything.

"All brothers and sisters have come out, and you still dare to argue." Qi said anxiously: "Dalang, you are saying something."

"This," He Boyong said in a muffled voice: "Then Baoyu and Daiyu are based on my experience in reading books... not right! I don't know about this."

I don't have any experience in reading books and don't understand what you are talking about.

He Liangyuan frowned and scolded, "What does Wei Nuo Nuo look like?"

He took the book in He Boyong's hand and looked at it. He only saw the third time when Bao Dai first met, so he shook his head.

"When the playboy saw her cousin, she threw her jade and shouted "The fairy-like sister"? It's simply... a book that smugs the beauty of the boudoir, a word that corrupts people's hearts."

After commenting in such a disgust, He Liangyuan looked up at Qian Duoduo.

"I have also heard of Qian Dexiu's reputation. Sure enough, his daughter Xiaofu." He Liangyuan looked noble and said seriously: "You are a little girl who does not follow the female commandments and write such an unbearable book for the newly lost woman to read it? It's really inappropriate. I advise you, this girl: People who live in the world, regardless of gender, should be upright and upright."

Qian Duoduo's face turned pale, he buried his head lower, and his fingers turned white, and his eyes felt sour.

Zuo Mingjing stepped forward, blocked Qian Duoduo's face, and said slowly and gently: "Grandfather, you can't comment on your juniors like this."

"Yes." He Liangyuan sighed with a solemn and serious expression: "But I have been a Hanlin Grand Secretary and have been in the literary world for more than ten years. I must not allow such frivolous works to be released, otherwise the world will decline and people's hearts will not be the same!"

Zuo Mingjing suddenly thought of the poem that Wang Xiao used to mock He Liangyuan: Jiuzhou is angry and relies on wind and thunder, and thousands of horses are silenced.

Qian Duoduo responded softly: "Where is frivolous?"

She is a concubine's daughter. At this time, she faced the former head of the Hanlin Academy and the current important minister of the cabinet, she actually used great courage to contradict her like this.

But He Liangyuan didn't hear it clearly and didn't care what she said at all.

"I hope you can understand that my move... is for public intention." He Liangyuan said lightly.

Then, he suddenly tore the ones in his hand, tearing them into pieces one by one.

Zuo Mingjing's expression changed. Looking at the pieces of shredded paper on the ground, she felt the huge despair so much that she couldn't breathe.

...

He Liangyuan tore the book, without saying much, turned around and left, with a hypocritical expression from beginning to end.

He doesn't have to argue with the little girl anymore.

If you do it casually today, the Qi family will naturally spread the matter, and the next blow will be Qian Chengyun and Zuo Jinglun's reputation.

Qian Chengyun's reputation has long been bad. Zuo Jinglun's granddaughter and his daughter wrote mischief books together... So, what good thing can this cabinet secondary assistant be?

Zuo Mingjing gently pulled Qian Duoduo's hand and whispered: "Duoduo, I'm sorry."

Qian Duoduo shook his head.

"Sister Mingjing, I didn't cry."

Zuo Mingjing was stunned, but Qian Duoduo said again: "Xiaolang said, if someone bullies me, I should slap my palm back. Although I... can't slap it, I didn't cry."

Although she said something, she could not help but she could not help it, and tears finally flowed down her face.

Zuo Mingjing gently wiped her tears and comforted her.

Qian Duoduo said again: "It's okay, I don't write it well anyway, so I'll have to rewritten it."

Looking at the aggrieved and firm expression on her face, Zuo Mingjing suddenly became a little confused.

What kind of person is that person? He can make such a big change in Qian Duoduo...
