Chapter 122 Changbai returns to Beijing

At this time, Changbai was talking to his father-in-law Hai Zhicheng in the front hall of Jiangning Hai’s home.

Speaking of which, after Changbai set out, he arrived in Jiangning in less than a month after walking along the river, and then passed the pass.

The Hai family not only has many rules, but also many rules for marrying a daughter, because the Hai family's daughter cannot tolerate the concubine.

If we say that the Hai family can gain the trust of the government, it is related to the old master of the Hai family. The old master of the Hai family was once a teacher of the government.

Although Mr. Hai has passed away for many years after the official ascended the throne, the Hai family's children and grandchildren were able to get into the exam for five Hanlin, which shocked the government and the people.

Emperor Yongxing was overjoyed when he learned about it and felt that he was worthy of being a descendant of his teacher. He really lived up to my expectations. Emperor Yongxing then began to reuse the Hai family.

The three sons and two grandsons of Mr. Hai have five Hanlin people. The three sons who are now the worst-in-law are already the left senator of the Shanxi Chengxuan Political Envoy Department.

I guess I will be promoted to the prefecture of Shanxi next year to be the prefect, and the two grandsons of the Hai family are now working in the Hanlin Academy.

It can be said that it is also a prominent family, but this is Jiangnan, and it is now the territory of the Xu family of Yongyi Hou.

The Hai family has been in Jiangnan for many years, and has suffered a lot. As the current official's eyeliner in Jiangnan Ming.

In recent years, he has been excluded and suppressed by various officials in Jiangnan. Even the salt merchants have been hiding far away, fearing that they have something to do with the Hai family.

It can be said that the Hai family has lived a miserable life over the years, and there is no decent status as a Hanlin family.

This time, the reason why he chose to marry his second daughter Chaoyun to Sheng Changbai was a helpless move.

In the past two years, the suppression of the Hai family by the Yongyi Hou Mansion has become increasingly serious, resulting in considerable losses to many of the Hai family's businesses in Jiangnan.

In the ancestral teachings of the Shanghai family, "Only a concubine can be taken if the descendants have no children at all." This leads to families with daughters who are naturally willing to marry their daughter to the Hai family.

But this family who married the daughter of the Hai family was very uncomfortable because the Hai family girls who had been influenced by them since childhood would definitely bring this habit to their husband's house, which was very troublesome because parents all hoped that their son would have more grandchildren to give birth to their own sons.

But if someone married a girl from the Hai family, there was nothing he could do. The girl from the Hai family could not tolerate her concubine.

Therefore, the girl from the Hai family was also worried about marrying, because the embarrassing status of the Hai family in Jiangnan and the ancestral teachings, the daughter of the Hai family rarely found a family with a good match.

In the end, they often get married in a low position, and this time they are the same. The only difference is that the Sheng family and the Xu family are in kinship.

This is why Sheng Changbai was basically not embarrassed and could return soon, because after all, it depends on the face of the Xu family.

"My father-in-law, my son-in-law plans to return to the capital the day after tomorrow. Today I am here to ask you, are there anything else to ask my son-in-law?" Sheng Changbai said

"Changbai, I am still very satisfied with your son-in-law. You are very good, and you can even say that you are better than the son-in-law in other houses."

"I have nothing to worry about. When you leave, I will go to Shandong to take office. I believe you can take good care of Chaoyun." Hai Zhicheng said with confidence.

Hai Zhicheng had just been promoted from the position of Jinhua Prefecture to Shandong Chengxuan as the right-sponsor of the Political Consultative Office. Sheng Changbai, the father-in-law, can be said to have a prosperous official career.

Although he is not as good as the eldest son of the Shanghai family, he is not bad. Hai Zhicheng's eldest brother Hai Zhizhong has just been promoted to Fujian Chengcheng and announced that the Minister of Political Consultative Affairs Office should be the Right Governor.

So the Hai family can be regarded as a top official family, but because the official family is the eyewitness of Jiangnan, life is so miserable.

Even the salt merchants hide from the Hai family, which is a great shame for a family of officials, but there is no way. The high position in this family is for grievances.

Therefore, some people only look at the scenery in front of others, but they can’t see how much hardship they have suffered behind their backs. It is also what they deserve to have the Hai family’s status today.

After the father-in-law and son-in-law finished chatting, Sheng Changbai went back and prepared. After all, he would set off to return to Beijing the day after tomorrow.

I have been here for a long time and I have to prepare a lot of things. After all, Hai Chaoyun is married this time, so this thing is inevitably packed.

On the other hand, Changbai went to say goodbye to the elders of the Hai family. Changbai was exhausted on this day.

But after all, he persisted and Sheng Changbai was very happy to think that he would be able to return to Beijing tomorrow.

After all, it has been nearly two months since it was released, and Jiangnan is now a little chaotic, so it is better to return to Beijing as soon as possible.

When Sheng Changbai was in Jiangning, people from Yongyi Hou’s mansion sent a lot of things over, although Xu Huizu did not see Sheng Changbai.

But he still sent a letter with the gift and asked Changbai to return to Beijing to hand it over to Old Lady Sheng. Sheng Changbai agreed.

Not only that, Xu Huizu also sent a battalion of troops to escort Sheng Changbai out of the Jiangnan territory. It is still a prosperous era now. Apart from the rebellion in Jiangnan, it is relatively safe all over the country. Even some bandits don’t matter. After all, there are Yuan Wenshu’s personal soldiers.

From this we can see that Xu Huizu was still very concerned about his grandmother, otherwise he would not have sent troops to protect Sheng Changbai.

The reason why Xu Huizu did not see Sheng Changbai was entirely because of his sensitive identity. In the eyes of outsiders, Mrs. Sheng had already broken off contact with the Xu family.

Today is different from the past. The current official family is about to be replaced. As the Yongyi Hou Mansion supported by Emperor Yongxing.

It is still unknown what fate will be in the future, so it cannot be expressed too close at this time.

This is very likely that the Xu family rose from Emperor Yongxing and died from Emperor Yongxing because the Xu family was not implicated in the case of Duke of Chu.

That is also because the Xu family was useful to Emperor Yongxing. Emperor Yongxing wanted to use the Xu family to control the civil servant base of Jiangnan, but now it is different from the past. Now Emperor Yongxing has no queen, and the next official family must take some action to consolidate the throne.

The best person to start the operation is his Yongyi Hou. He has been participating in his memorials over the years and probably can't even let go of the imperial study.

With the temperaments and natures of the two princes, Xu Huizu felt that he would definitely be unable to escape, so it was not easy to take off his aunt's family now.

Whether the Xu family can still exist after this disaster depends on God’s arrangement. Xu Huizu has done what he can do, and sometimes everything manpower can do, and the rest depends on God’s will.

The day finally came. Early in the morning, Sheng Changbai and his wife, led a group of female envoys and servants out of the city under the escort of Yuan Wenshu's personal soldiers.
