Feng Jingyuan, seeing this scene from a distance, showed nothing on his face, but his eyes flashed with a little bit of pride.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shen Anxin had been thinking about Jiang Zhens heartlessness all day, which had already made Zheng Yi dissatisfied. Then after that . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMention more to people about Young Master Shen\u2019s situation today. If he is like this, he may lose his footing and fall into the water later,\u201d Feng Jinyuan said to the person next to him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From the beginning, Feng Jinyuan did not put Shen Anxin in his eyes. Before, he was willing to tolerate Shen Anxin just to reassure Zheng Yi. But he also could not let Shen Anxin live a good life . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking at the distant Shen Anxin, Feng Jinyuan coldly snorted disdainfully. Before, in the capital, Shen Anxin was not able to stand even a bit of gossip, so at this time, he might not even want to live . . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Jing origin thought he knew Shen Anxin very well and thought that Shen Anxin might try to kill himself but did not expect that he really thought wrong.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shen Anxin really cared about chastity very, very much. Although he was raised as a man, but his mother\u2019s words and teaching always let him think of himself as a ger. After being violated, he felt like the sky was falling at him. At first, when he found that the sky was falling, he wanted Jiang Zhen comfort, but after Jiang Zhen ignored him, his thoughts completely changed. He was not doing well, so he wanted everyone to have a bad life.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Jingyuan brought people to the south of the Yangtze River this time with him, so did Shen Anxin. Because he was doing business with Zheng Yi, he had resumed a familiar relationship with many of his father\u2019s old friends. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, he knew one thing. The f<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">amous official Zhou from the capital was coming to the south of the Yangtze River.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shen Anxin, who lived in the capital since childhood, knew official Zhou very well. He also knew that official Zhou was the most cynical and hated the officials of the Empress Dowager and he had a problem with the Zheng family for a long time.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before Zheng Yi\u2019s second uncle, official Zheng presented the cards for gambling, which made him extremely angry so official Zhou mercilessly wanted to get back at Zheng.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, because the Empress Dowager hated him very much he not only did not participate in the official Zheng presentation which also made Empress Dowager very sympathetic to Lord Zheng, and privately subsidized him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLord Zhou . . . ,\u201d Shen Anxin muttered, then looked to the people around him and asked them to inquire when Lord Zhou would arrive.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYoung Master, what are you inquiring about him for?\u201d Shen Anxin\u2019s little servant asked in confusion.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhy are you asking so many questions? Just ask around,\u201d Shen Anxin said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There was no expression on Shen Anxin\u2019s face; seeing him behave like this. the little boy servant did not dare to ask any more questions.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shen Anxin sent the young boy away and lay down and slept until the next day when it was already very bright outside. By that time, the boy had already found out about the news. \u201cThat Lord Zhou has already come to the south of the Yangtze River. He is now in Wanhe County. It\u2019s about two days away from here.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAre you sure?\u201d Shen Anxin asked.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYoung Master, I heard it from a servant of the Zheng family. I heard that Young Master Zheng had been paying close attention to him and asked people to keep an eye on him,\u201d the young man said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOh . . .\u201d Shen Anxin nodded, took out a pen and paper, and wrote down a letter then handed it to another servant. \u201cTake this letter to Official Zhou and give it to him. . . .When you go out, if the Zheng family asks, don\u2019t say you\u2019re going to Official Zhou. Just say you just want to send it to capital . . . Be careful on the way too. Don\u2019t let anyone follow you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYes, Young Master,\u201d the man answered, then he took the letter and left.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Between Shen Anxin and Feng Jinyuan, Zheng Yi was at ease with the former, thinking that although Shen Anxin lacked the means and experience, he was at least not a bad person, so in contrast, he was more wary of Feng Jinyuan.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If Feng Jinyuan suddenly let his men leave, Zheng Yi would definitely send people to keep an eye on them a little, but when Shen Anxin sent a person away, he did not care. However, he more or less thought that Shen Anxin. . . was a bit problematic.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was looking forward to Shen Anxin\u2019s development, so he cooperated with Shen Anxin, but as a result . . . after Shen Anxin came to the south of Yangtze River, he did not seem to do any business well. . . Zheng Yi suddenly thought about Shen Anxin but then let it go. Instead, he thought it was about to be the birthday of Jiang Zhen\u2019s mother-in-law.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen attached great importance to Zhao Jinge, as well as to Zhao Liu and Zhao Fugui. This time, for Zhao Liu\u2019s birthday, of course, he would go over and send a good gift.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zheng Yi used to give gifts to his elders, all of which were calligraphy, painting, jade, and so on, but then he thought that Zhao Liu might not able to appreciate these things.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHave someone use pure gold to create a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guanyin<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Guanyin\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Guanyin<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">),\u201d Zheng Yi said to his men.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since the Qingfeng House in Fucheng would not be opened for a while, Jiang Zhen carefully prepared for Zhou Liu birthday banquet, making Hexi even livelier than before.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen\u2019s Jinzhen Escort Agency brought great changes to Hexi Village. Many people in Hexi found jobs at the docks, so the people of Hexi could have better live. Because of this, they were more and more grateful to Jiang Zhen. Since they were grateful to Jiang Zhen, they also were naturally less friendly to the Jiang family.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOld lady Jiang, Zhao Liu life is so good now, but it is a pity that you drove Jiang Zhen away . . .\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYes, you have driven a golden Bodhisattva out!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWell, your family is now . . . If Jiang Zhen was still around, would your life still be so hard?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. . .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The people of Hexi said this to old lady Jiang.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Old lady Jiang used to be very, very angry when she heard such remarks, but this time, she lowered her head and then quickly returned home.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After she got home, old lady Jiang immediately looked at Jiang Chengxiang. \u201cChengxiang, what you say is true? Is there really a noble gentleman who is willing to help us meet the imperial envoy and complain?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMother, it\u2019s true!\u201d Jiang Chengxiang said. \u201cThat noble gentleman is kind-hearted and will help us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBut . . . to officially complain.\u201d Old lady Jiang was a little frightened at the thought of going back to the yamen to complain, only to be rejected at the door.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was said that all officials protected each other; was it possible that the imperial envoy would also be on Jiang Zhen side? Jiang Zhen had a lot of money, so it would not be difficult for him to buy an imperial envoy, wasn\u2019t it?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMother, I heard that this imperial envoy is very jealous of evil and likes revenge! This <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">gentleman said that he would help us!\u201d Jiang Chengxiang said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Chengxiang\u2019s courage had long been frightened out by Jiang Zhen. When that man put forward such a request, he did not dare to go for fear that Jiang Zhen would know and he would eventually lose his life.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But the dignitary advised him again and again, telling him that this imperial envoy hated the Zheng family very much, so he still agreed.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen was so unfilial to his parents, so they can sue him for a crime of unfilial piety!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once upon a time, the Jiang family had the idea of suing Jiang Zhen, but it did not succeed, but soon they had this idea again. As long as they could sue Jiang Zhen and get his money, in the future, their family will be allowed to eat delicious food and drink spicy food.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nowadays, most of the people in Hexi Village were on Jiang Zhen side and even some relatives of the Jiang family no longer paid attention to them. It could be said that in this village Jiang Zhen\u2019s eyes were everywhere.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Worried about being seen by these people, the Jiang family packed up their things and went to the county town at night. When they were in the countryside Jiang Chengxiang and Jiang Chengwen seemed to be at odds with each other, but now that they have a common enemy, they got along a lot better.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the whole family once again started to act affectionate, they went to the county town.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Jiang family was having a very bad time these days. Because no one had time to wash clothes, all of them were wearing smelly and dirty rags.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shen Anxin had never been in close contact with such people before, so as soon as he saw them, he could not help feeling disgusted. But what he hated even more were the faces that <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bore some resemblance to Jiang Zhen.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shen Anxin also knew that what these people said was not necessarily true, but he was still eager to teach Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge a lesson. At this time, if he didn\u2019t do something, he might go crazy.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All kinds of image flickered in his mind, Jiang Zheng and Zhao Jinge regretting this, Jiang Zhen having everything taken away from him, and he even imagined that he would die together with Jiang Zhen. In any case, he did not want to see Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge acting sweet again. When they were together, they were simply poking him in the heart with a knife.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYoung Master Shen, this is an imperial envoy. We do not dare to stop him. If we try to stop him, he might attack us, and we will lose our lives!\u201d Chengwen said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYes, Master Shen, there are old and small ones in our family . . . ,\u201d Jiang Chengxiang also said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shen Anxin frowned at the two men, but at first, he could not react, but then they started to talk more and more. But then he also realized that they actually just wanted money.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He became more and more disgusted, but when he saw the ragged clothes of these people, he thought it was normal . . . He threw out ten silver. \u201cTake it first. And tomorrow, I will ask someone to bring you 200 silver.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Chengxiang hurriedly thanked him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, Jiang Chengxiang also saw that this Young Master Shen, who had a grudge against Jiang Zhen, wanted to use them to deal with Jiang Zhen. But he didn\u2019t care. As long as it could make Jiang Zhen miserable, even if he was taken advantage of, so what? This Young Master Shen was from capital, and he might really have a way to help them bring down Jiang Zhen!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Seeing Jiang Chengxiang like this, Shen Anxin started to hate him even more. He got up and said, \u201cYou can buy food with this money, but you can\u2019t buy clothes or change your clothes!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Chengxiang nodded and answered quickly. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other side, the imperial minister threw a letter on the table. \u201cHow outrageous! In this world, there are still such unfaithful and unfilial people!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt is also in Hecheng Country where the Zheng family can cover the sky with one hand, so there is no way for these people to ask for help!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The author has something to say: In yesterday\u2019s chapter, many people were angry and left negative comments. The explanation is here:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First of all, Shen\u2019s experience has nothing to do with his idea of becoming a mistress. So I hope no one will think he deserved it because of this, and don\u2019t say anything about \u201cWhen the mistress has to be ** too much\u201d or somehow derived from \u201cjust like the protagonist has to be **\u201d These two things have nothing to do with each other. Like the protagonist, from the beginning to the end, also had nothing to do with him, these two things also have nothing to do with each other.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This matter actually has foreshadowing. He already has some conflict with Feng Jingyuan before he knew Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge. Before he took a fancy to Jiang Zhen, Feng Jingyu is the son of Feng Chenglin who tried to harm him before (Jiang Zhen saved him then.)<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It had nothing to do with him from beginning to end, and I foreshadowed it when I wrote about what was happening in capital.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jiang Zhen also warned him to be careful before.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">******<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, it has nothing to do with the theory that girls are victimized because they wear less.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This was a deliberate attempt to harm him.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It doesn\u2019t even matter whether he is a ger or a woman. Even if he was a man? Would Feng try to hurt him after having a grudge with him?<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">******.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the final analysis, it is character that determines his fate.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feng Jingyuan used this method to harm him because Shen Anxin cared about this. If Shen Anxin didn\u2019t care about this, there would be another method used. <\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Edited by: Faro<\/p>\r\n<p>Proofreader: XLB<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Support translation:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/bePatron?u=25191841\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"51\" class=\"wp-image-338 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/become_a_patron_button.png?resize=217%2C51\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 217px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 217\/51;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lajnaa\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/kofi3-3.png?resize=185%2C47\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is kofi3-3.png\" width=\"185\" height=\"47\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 185px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 185\/47;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>He looked absent-minded and even bumped into one of Zheng family\u2019s servant girls . . .
