The Great Elder asked the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall to take out some pamphlets and said, "Look at this, this is your identity, origin, and time of birth in those few rooms outside. Also, in the past few years, in the Taoist Temple, in the name of the two national teachers, how many things you have done to sell official beards are mostly recorded here. Look, are you convicted? ”

Chen Yuanluan's heart was beating for a while, he hurriedly took the booklet and looked at it, just after a few glances, he shouted: "Impossible, this is impossible." ”

Chen Yuanluan just glanced at it a few times and shouted that it was impossible. That's because the first thing he looked at was the identity of several of his outer rooms, the time of birth of the child, and so on.

I saw that Chen Yuanluan was in a big mood, his eyes were scattered, and the whole person's spirit and spirit were emptied. Since entering the ancestral hall, Chen Yuanluan has always maintained the image of a personable son of a family, in the middle, even if the Li family says him, even if everyone exposes the Li family, he has maintained his demeanor very well, but at the moment, he is in a panic.

Chen Wenhui was not curious, what was written on which booklet? Chen Wenhui looked at her parents. The Bai clan didn't know very well, Chen Yuanheng guessed something and shook his head.

Chen Yuanfeng was even more confused by the second monk, and his younger brother Chen Yuanluan relied on the Taoist temple to sell his official beard, and the whole capital knew that he had used himself and his eldest son Chen Wenqi a few times. After all, Chen Wenqi is the next prime minister, and now he is in charge of the household department, and he is in a high position.

Regarding this point, Chen Yuanfeng believes that his younger brother has long known in his heart, as a noble son. This common sense is still known. When he did this, he should have known that there would be such a day, he should have known in his heart, why did his demeanor change so much?

When the Great Elder saw that the people in the room were so puzzled, he said, "You have a total of three concubines outside. Two are lovers, and one is an Oiran of the Green House. It's all for a variety of reasons, and you're going to come across it. You believe they have real feelings for you. They are young and beautiful, and they will follow you to give birth to children in the future. Make up for the lack of your children. ”

"In order to support these people, you are buying a house and a shop. Spending money is like running water. The Li family didn't give you money, there is no way, you can only rely on the two national teachers and rely on the Taoist temple. Help those who go to the capital and walk the way. Collect money. ”

"Of course. To seek official positions for these people, as children of a family, it can be said. We've all done it. However, what we are doing is to add more help to the family, more forces to take refuge, more talents, and more affiliated families. At the same time, it is understandable to collect some property, otherwise you two brothers will be separated, how can you share so much property? ”

"But what about you? You don't distinguish between black and white, whether you are virtuous or stupid, whether you are friends or enemies, as long as you give money, whether it is beneficial to the family or not conducive to the family, you will help, and even use the power of our Chen clan to help, such a thing, our Chen family can't ignore it. ”

"Now, let's take a look, who are these people you have spent so much money to raise? That Oiran is the real Oiran, but she is also a member of the Wang family, a person placed in the Qinglou by the Wang family, and she just happened to meet you. One of the two belovers is from the Bai family and the other is from the Li family. Among them, the one who gave birth to you was the beloved of the Li family. Why did the lover of the Li family give birth to you? I've been investigating for a long time, and that lover is following you at the same time, but also following a splash, counting the child's birth day, then I really can't say, it's your child, or the splashy child. ”

Chen Yuanluan said with a dead face: "These are not true, these are not right. How is it possible, that son is not mine either? ”

Chen Wenhao and his wife were shocked at first, and then, the husband and wife glanced at each other, and both of them saw the ecstasy in each other's eyes. Before, the two of them were still worried in their hearts, Mrs. Li is really gone, this Chen family's second room is Chen Yuanluan's world, so he still doesn't do whatever he wants? Why don't you bring back all those outer rooms and concubines? Aren't Chen Wenhao and his wife also dangerous?

However, now that I know that there is something wrong with those outer rooms, that child is still in chaos, how happy Chen Wenhao and his wife are. This time the sword hanging over their heads was gone.

Chen Wenhui was very shocked, but she found that Chen Yuanheng and his wife were not surprised at all, which showed that they had known for a long time. Perhaps, the Great Elder's ability to grasp the situation so quickly was due to the convenience provided by his parents. After all, Chen Wenhui has known how many relationships her parents have established for so many years.

Xiao Chen's Cuijin Building, all the women's clothing business in Da Chu is done, and the things that these women gossip about are sorted out and summarized into Xiao Chen's house every day. There is also Qinghe Restaurant, where the conversations of the guests every day, and the news that is slightly more valuable, will also be summarized into Xiao Chen's house.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Chen Yuanheng can know this.

However, Chen Wenqi and Chen Yuanfeng didn't know about it, and the two of them were very shocked, shocked, and at the same time, they were also a little scared and a little frightened. How normal it is for these families to infiltrate each other has been going on for hundreds of years. However, when they thought about what they had done in the past few years, how many concubines of unknown origin they had accepted, and how many secrets they had known by others, the two of them were a little frightened. They all thought in unison, they must go back and clean up the backyard, not only those concubines, but also those servants, although they can't completely eliminate it, but it's always good to have less.

Chen Yuanluan was still in shock, and the Great Elder continued: "You fool, what do these people get by sacrificing one or two beauties? It can be said that cultivating these beauties may not even cost a few hundred taels of silver, and it is also idle chess, and if you run into it, you will run into it, and it doesn't matter if you don't touch it. We also have this kind of idle chess in the Chen family, and you know it. However, these three idle chess players really ran into you, a fool. ”

"You have treasured them, but what about them? How much do they get from you? Even if we just raise them, our Chen family can still raise them. However, if they instigate you to do things for those people, look at them again, who are those people? ”

"Those are the forces of the Bai family, the Wang family, and the Li family. The Bai family's is just that. The Wang family and the Li family have been weakened for so many years, and they can't speak in the court. But our Chen family is in full swing, and they have borrowed our power for a small price. Tell me, are you a sinner of the Chen family? ”

Only then did Chen Yuanluan react, fell to his knees, and cried: "Great Elder, I know it's wrong, please open the net." ”

The Great Elder said: "If you are just selling your official position, our Chen clan will at most be a small reproach and punishment, but if you harm the interests of the clan like this and do things for other clans, it will be a big crime of treason." ”

As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked. Chen Wenhao knelt down first and cried: "Please forgive my father, my father was also deceived." ”

Chen Yuanluan was shocked by what the Great Elder said, and he panicked for a while, but at this time, the first person to speak for him was actually his son who he had never been optimistic about, and he couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart, he didn't expect that this inconspicuous son was the best person for him. I was so wrong in the past.

Chen Wenhao cried like this, and the Chen Wenhua sisters couldn't sit still. Although they were angry that their father was swaggering in the name of their sisters and selling their official positions, they didn't expect that it was such a big crime, and they didn't expect that their father was also being used. Their sisters immediately knelt down as well, took off their scarves and hostas, put them on the ground, and cried: "Please open the net, for the sake of our sisters who have done so many things for the Chen clan over the years, and forgive our father." ”

When the Great Elder saw this, he could ignore Chen Wenhao, but he couldn't ignore these two national teachers, after all, the two of them were already married daughters, and they were already the royal eldest elder concubines, and the Great Elder couldn't afford this ceremony.

The Great Elder hurriedly asked someone to help the two national teachers up, and said, "The two national teachers don't have to be like this. ”

Chen Yuanluan looked at his children like this, and was very ashamed. Thinking that she has been doing it for so many years, she is not good to her children, and the only one who pampers Chen Wenjin is the most useless. But these concubines and concubines have silently made so many contributions to the family, and in the end they have to save themselves, what a shame.

At this time, when Chen Wenqi saw it, he immediately gave his wife a look, and also knelt down and pleaded: "Great Elder, although the family rules cannot be favoritism, after all, the second uncle has made contributions to the family for so many years. Especially the two national teachers have contributed the most, for the sake of the two national teachers, I also have to give the second uncle a chance. ”

Chen Wenqi and his wife knelt down, and Chen Wenqi's two cousins also knelt down to plead.

Chen Wenhui saw that she was the only one left in her own generation in the field, and the two cousins were looking at her with blank eyes. She had no choice but to say: "Great Elder, I am a foreign married woman and I am not qualified to speak, but after all, this is my second uncle, please forgive me." ”

Chen Yuanheng also said at this time: "Great Elder, after all, it is my second brother, please forgive me for the sake of my father and my eldest sister." ”

Chen Yuanfeng also said: "Although the second brother has mistakes, he is just calculated, and his heart is not bad. Moreover, it is also because my brother does not teach well. As the head of the family, I didn't notice so many ill-intentioned people around my second brother, which is really a dereliction of duty. Please ask the Great Elder to condemn me as well, and spare the second brother. ”

Chen Yuanfeng's words moved Chen Yuanluan even more. In the past, for this brother-in-law, Chen Yuanluan did not give him any bad medicine, but at a critical time, the eldest brother could still do this. I'm ashamed of myself.

Sister Chen Yuanfang also pleaded. (To be continued.) )
