Chapter 824 Lots of Cheats 145
Although the Wang family did become a little crazy after Wang Guifei became favored and became prosperous, and even did some illegal things involving money and power transactions, the Wang family cannot be returned to the Wang family. No, people like Shen Yuan's husband and wife, who are treacherous and treacherous according to the prevailing circumstances, are not a good thing either.
When I saw people who were prosperous, I ran up to them and hugged them. Now that they are down and out, I quickly dumped them. At any time, no one would say that these people were doing the right thing.
So although Shen Yuanniang’s husband’s sister is back, it’s difficult to get married again. It’s not a matter of age, but other people are afraid that their family will be in trouble in the future, so she ran away again. Ah, so who dares to marry?
So Shen Yuanniang’s husband’s sister remarried after she came back, but she never got married.
Fortunately, her husband's family is a rich and powerful family, and it is not a big problem to have an extra mouth to eat. Therefore, Shen Yuanniang's husband's sister can still stay in her natal family. At most, she will sometimes have conflicts with her sisters-in-law, which is also very difficult. Normally, when a large family lives together, it is difficult for them to avoid conflicts.
Of course, what they are most worried about now is that Shen Yuanniang's father-in-law, whose position as a third-rank official is very likely to be eliminated.
This is not only Shen Yuanniang's father-in-law who has this worry, but also other families who were promoted quickly because of Wang Guifei.
These people were promoted to official positions by currying favor with the Wang family. Now that the Wang family has fallen, their official positions are naturally shaky. After all, if you thrive on this, you will surely perish on it.
And their worries were not unnecessary. Soon, many people were demoted from their official positions. It was good to be demoted back to their previous rank. Some who were too close to Concubine Wang were demoted. People found evidence of illegal crimes and were arrested.
The evidence of these illegal crimes is basically true. It is not that the court wronged them. After all, most of the people who climbed up the ranks by flattering Wang Guifei are shameless, and there are a few of these people who can withstand investigation. of.
Most people have been demoted. Only Shen Yuanniang's husband's family was demoted, but they didn't do it to the end and still retained some dignity.
The reason is that Shen Yuanniang's sister is now the queen.
The reason why my sister is the queen and her husband’s family has been demoted is also very simple. Firstly, Linlang did not say anything good to them. Secondly, the new emperor, the Prince of Anjiang County, is temporarily a It's just a decoration, and he doesn't have real power. In this way, the new emperor can't refute whatever decisions the ministers in front of him make. It's in the new emperor's favor to be able to save some dignity for Shen Yuan's husband's family.
In fact, the prince of Anjiang County said that there was no need to look at his face to give Shen Yuanniang’s husband’s family dignity, because although his wife and Shen Yuanniang were sisters, their relationship was average. The queen probably never thought about it. Keep Shen Yuan's family rich and noble.
At this time, Jing Anbo has passed away due to old age, but Mrs. Jing Anbo is still there. If Jing Anbo is still here, he may still ask for a favor from his eldest daughter's husband's family, but Mrs. Jing Anbo is simply impossible. To plead for the concubine’s husband’s family.
It is true that Mrs. Jing Anbo will not treat concubines harshly, but who can like the children that her husband has with other women, just like how can a man like the children that his wife has with other men? It's hard for men to do that, and it's the same for women, so the relationship between Mrs. Jing'anbo and Shen Yuanniang is just a matter of face, so how can they plead for her.
This is Mrs. Jing Anbo’s attitude towards Shen Yuanniang, and Linlang naturally has the same idea. Concubine Ji was legal in this era, so she would not target Shen Yuanniang, the daughter born to her aunt, but she did not like her. It was strange that she would like her father's child with another woman.
If Shen Yuanniang’s aunt was arranged for Jing Anbo by Mrs. Jing Anbo, then she might still treat her like a biological sister. After all, it was her mother who made the arrangement. Those children born by aunts also have a share of responsibility.
But Shen Yuanniang’s aunt was not arranged for Jing Anbo by Mrs. Jing Anbo. She was arranged by the old Mrs. Jing Anbo for Jing Anbo before the marriage, and she was raised as an aunt after the marriage. This kind of thing happened. Linlang would naturally not have any feelings for her children, let alone feel any responsibility towards them.
So don’t say that those ministers didn’t ask Linlang’s opinion. Even if they asked, Linlang would only let them act according to the rules.
Anyway, she won't embarrass Shen Yuanniang, but she won't do anything to help her either.
Although Linlang did not help Shen Yuanniang, just because Linlang was the queen, her natal family was promoted to the Marquis Mansion, and Shen Yuanniang's status in the capital also skyrocketed.
Not only has his status in Beijing skyrocketed, but his status in her husband's family has also risen like a rocket.
After all, looking at other families who fawned over Wang Guifei, their official positions were either demoted or returned to their original status. Only our own family, not only did they not get promoted, but they were demoted, and they were only demoted to the fourth rank, instead of being demoted back to their original status. arrive After getting to the fifth rank at the beginning, you know that it is thanks to having the queen's sister as your daughter-in-law that you can keep your official position from the fourth rank. Otherwise, you will at least be reduced to the fifth rank. If you are not lucky, you may not be able to do it. Lust to the end.
Knowing who brought the benefits, Shen Yuanniang's status in her husband's family naturally rose. It was not like a rising tide lifted all boats, but it was rising like a rocket.
Before, because Shen Yuan’s mother-in-law’s family was promoted to a third-rank official, and her mother’s father had passed away, her brother had no future and could only inherit the title. Princess, but she is only a princess of the county. There are still many county princes in the capital, so they are not valuable. Therefore, her status in her husband's family becomes more and more important as the husband's family gets better and better. It's getting lower and lower.
In the beginning, her husband's family was only a fifth-rank official, but she came from Jing'an Bo Mansion, her father was a third-rank official, and her sister was a county princess. In every aspect, she was from an ordinary fifth-rank official family, but She was out of reach, so when she first got married, her husband's family held her in high esteem and liked her very much.
But now, her husband’s family is already a third-rank official, and as for her family, her father who holds the real power has passed away, and her natal brothers cannot help. But for the powerful officials who are third-rank officials, although the county king and others are not Dare to look down upon it, but that's all. In other words, those things that she was proud of in the past are no longer taken seriously by her husband's family, so her status in her husband's family has naturally declined.
There were even a few times when someone in her husband's family was angry at her for breaking off an engagement and remarrying once. The implication behind her words was that their family was now prosperous and her husband could marry a better woman, and they thought she was not worthy. No more than her husband.
Some people poked at her sore spots and laughed at her lack of vision. They said that her ex-husband had passed the Jinshi exam and now his official position was not low, but she actually lost it at the drop of a hat.
Knowing that she was most taboo about talking about how well her ex-husband was doing, those people also said that this naturally made Shen Yuanniang very unhappy.
