Chapter 159
In fact, although these rumors are just made up by outsiders, they really hit the sore feet of everyone in the Chengguo Mansion. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
What was the truth about Shen Xi's matter at the beginning, after the county lord of Anyang sent Aunt Tao to Wei's Zhuangzi, it was also a secret that everyone knew.
Although this matter was suppressed, the county lord of Anyang also responded in the past, but no matter what, the Chengguo Mansion always lost money.
Therefore, for those rumors outside, even if the people of the Chengguo Mansion are indignant on the surface, they are always bitter in their hearts.
Up to now, Shen Xi returned to Beijing not only without notifying everyone in the Chengguo Mansion, but also went directly to the Duanjun Mansion without making a sound, and he didn't see the appearance of returning to the Chengguo Mansion, and even slapped everyone in the Chengguo Mansion in the face.
Of course, these are all things Xu Huizhen said.
“…… Mother, don't worry, I don't want to get involved in those things in the house," Xu Huizhen smiled and said to the old lady, "Sister-in-law still wants me to persuade the third sister-in-law to let the third sister-in-law call Brother Xi to return to the mansion, no, I found a reason to avoid coming back?"
The old lady was relieved.
Because of Shen Xi's return to Beijing, the Chengguo Mansion is now in a mess, and Xu Huizhen didn't want to get involved in those calculations, so she simply led the three children to hide back to her parents' house.
The current situation of the Chengguo Mansion is not something that anyone can hide, and of course Xu Huizhen will not hide it from the old lady.
The old lady also sighed with emotion after hearing this.
The Chengguo Mansion is deeply trusted by the royal family, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the right-hand man of Emperor Jingtai, but under the glamour of the appearance, I don't know how many private things are hidden.
Just like Shen Xi's background, wasn't he almost calculated by a little aunt?
Of course, Aunt Tao is not clean, but whether there is anyone else interfering in this, only God knows.
"Brother Xi has been away from Beijing for five years, but his temperament has not changed. Xu Huizhen smiled and shook her head again.
Back then, Shen Xi's distress was well known in the capital, and even caused chaos in Liaocheng, and Emperor Jingtai later rewarded and appeased the matter.
Originally, many people secretly speculated whether Shen Xi's distress was done by someone from the Chengguo Mansion, but now that Shen Xi has come out like this, didn't he send the words to the mouths of others?
Now the old Chengguo Duke and Mrs. Wei have had several seizures in the mansion, but the county lord of Anyang also made a little unaware, and even cried that Shen Xi's son even hid such a big thing as returning to Beijing, so he didn't look sad.
Even if everyone wondered if the county lord of Anyang really didn't know, what could they do with her?
As for Shen Xi, not only did he not return to the Chengguo Mansion, but he didn't even have a letter, and he never gave any response even when the Chengguo Mansion sent someone to the door, who knows what he was going to do?
Xu Yujian was sitting on the side at this time listening to the old lady and Xu Huizhen talking.
Thinking of the scene when she accompanied the county lord of Anyang to the Duanjun Palace, she said: "Auntie, the county lord should be extremely happy these days. ”
Xu Huizhen nodded, "Isn't that right?" Brother Xi has been away from Beijing for five years, and the third sister-in-law has never been to see him, and now that he has finally come back, the happiest is the third sister-in-law." ”
Speaking of this, Xu Huizhen paused again.
Shen Xi's return, of course, the happiest is the mother of the county lord of Anyang.
However, compared to the county lord of Anyang, Shen Zhaolin, the third master of the Shen family, as Shen Xi's biological father, didn't even see a smiling face, which made people feel so strange.
Although it has been seen over the years that Shen Zhaolin is not close to the county lord of Anyang and Shen Xi's son, he is his own son, and he finally came back after five years of absence, but Shen Zhaolin behaved so indifferently, how could people not be surprised?
Xu Huizhen couldn't think of anything after thinking about it, so she didn't think about it anymore.
And when Xu Yu saw a few people chatting, in the Chengguo Mansion, in the three-room Jiya Hall, the county lord of Anyang was standing opposite Shen Zhaolin from a long distance.
The room was very spacious, and the maids were all sent down again, and the county lord of Anyang and Shen Zhaolin stood almost at the farthest distance in the house, and the expressions on their faces were a little cold, not at all like a couple who had been together for nearly twenty years.
If you really want to say it, it is a bit like an enemy.
Shen Zhaolin clenched his fists tightly, the corners of his eyes jumped a few times, and finally suppressed the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "Anyway, Brother Xi is a member of the Chengguo Mansion, now that he has returned to Beijing, how can he not enter this house? Isn't this a joke?"
The county lord of Anyang sneered when he heard this.
"Joke?" her lips hooked slightly, easily letting Shen Zhaolin see her sarcasm, "What is the only thing that can be joked about in the Chengguo Mansion?" Brother Xi'er's surname is Shen, but he is also the emperor himself named the king of Duanjun, since the emperor has given the Duanjun Palace, he goes back to live in his own county palace, what is it?"
Shen Zhaolin's qi knotted.
Everyone in the world said that the third master of the Shen family was a great blessing to marry a pearl of the royal family.
However, for Shen Zhaolin, marrying the county lord of Anyang under the holy decree is definitely not something to be happy about.
Because of this, over the years, the relationship between Shen Zhaolin and the county lord of Anyang has been extremely weak, and even after the county lord of Anyang gave birth to Shen Xi, he didn't even go back to the courtyard much.
This time, as soon as Shen Xi returned to Beijing, he made the matter known to everyone, which directly made the old Chengguo Duke and Mrs. Wei so angry that they almost fainted, but whether it was the county lord of Anyang or Shen Xi, they all looked like they didn't get in with oil and salt, and in the end, they could only let Shen Zhaolin come forward to persuade him.
It's just that with the relationship between Shen Zhaolin and the county lord of Anyang, letting him persuade can have some effect, just look at the current situation.
The county lord of Anyang actually didn't know why Shen Xi made such a move, but for the county lord of Anyang, what she valued the most was Shen Xi's son, for Shen Xi's sake, even if she was asked to tear her face with the entire Chengguo Mansion and Shen Zhaolin, her husband, she would not have any hesitation.
Like now.
Shen Zhaolin gritted his teeth, the green tendons on his forehead loomed, and after a while, he barely suppressed his anger, "Even if Brother Xi is dissatisfied with the mansion, it is for the sake of my father's face......"
Before he finished speaking, the county lord of Anyang, who was originally just indifferent, suddenly became angry.
"Father?" "Father?" the county lord of Anyang seemed to have a raging fire burning in his eyes, "You still have the face to say these two words? Brother Xi has grown up to be so big, when did you fulfill your responsibilities as a father?"
