Under the appearance of peace and excitement, the capital ushered in the New Year.

Because the Gu family and the Ming Wangfu are married, there are more people who go to the Gu family to pay New Year's greetings this year, and the two brothers and sisters are entertaining guests at home, and one person is going out to return the gift on behalf of the Gu family.

On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Huan intended to hold a banquet in Gu's house to entertain friends in the capital.

Li Congxin, his sworn brothers, and Gu Huanyi's sisters were all on the banquet list, as well as Gu Jiayi, Zheng Qing, and Feng Huajun, who were already living in the West Courtyard, were full of people in the courtyard, and it was very lively.

It's rare for someone to be so complete, Gu Huanyi ordered the servants to bring good wine, please enjoy it.

The banquet was about to start, and there was a commotion at the door, Song Ping walked in with a stiff face, and said in Gu Huanyi's ear: "Miss, the Shen family of the Tang family committed suicide by throwing themselves into the well, and the people are gone, and now the Shen family has carried people to our door to make trouble." ”

Gu Huanyi's eyes were about to fall out.

Shin committed suicide!

But the Shen family didn't look for the Tang family, but they came to her door to make trouble during the New Year, what does it mean?

The sound of shouting and crying outside the hospital came into the hospital, and everyone looked at Gu Huanyi and Song Ping.

The people present were all close and credible people, and Gu Huanyi didn't hide it, and told everyone about the situation.

Everyone was just like her, puzzled.

Gu Jiayi stood up and said, "I'm afraid Shen's death is related to the fact that I have been married, I'll go out and have a look." ”

Gu Huanyi stopped him and said, "Don't you go, what's your business?" The family affairs were withdrawn by them, and the Tang family was also chosen by themselves, they had a bad life, how could they rely on us? ”

Li Congxin stood up to preside over the overall situation, summoned Liu Pei, and asked him to go to Jing Zhaoyin with his post, and ask the security army in the capital to take the troublemakers away.

For the New Year, it's really not like to make trouble at the door like this.

Then he asked Hu Shen to investigate the cause of Shen's suicide, and only after knowing the cause and effect could he deal with it.

The security army arrived after a short time, and after persuading the troublemakers to leave, they took Song Ping and the people of the Shen family and the Tang family to the yamen to talk.

Gu Huanyi was very sorry to his friends, he originally invited everyone to have fun, but how did he expect such a fork.

She properly sent the guests away, and Li Congxin accompanied her and Gu Jiayi to wait for the news.

Hu Shen came back from inquiring about the news and reported: "I went to inquire about the servants of the Tang family, and the Tang family said that it was the young lady who told the queen that Shen's repentance and marriage were remarried, and the queen reprimanded Shen's unchastity and made the Tang family humiliated. The Tang family wanted to divorce the Shen family, and the Shen family was humiliated and forced to throw himself into the well. ”

This reason really shocked Gu Huanyi.

She clearly remembered that when the queen recruited her into the palace to discuss her brother's marriage, she had absconded left and right, and there were no outsiders.

At that time, the queen mother only said angrily in private, and did not pass on the edict to reprimand, why did it reach the ears of the Tang family?

It seems that Mrs. Tang's eyes and ears in the palace can reach the sky.

Liu Pei also rushed back from Jingfu Yin, bringing even more shocking news!

"He suspected that Shen was killed by him, and there were obvious pulling scars on his arms, and Jingfu Yin wanted to file a case for investigation. But the Shen family and the Tang family are both official dependents, and the Shen family keeps accusing us, and Jingfu Yin does not dare to act rashly, and wants to ask Dongchang to intervene in this case. ”

Since the reform of the Yuan Emperor and the implementation of the cabinet, the cabinet members led by the prime minister have great decision-making power over political affairs, and can even impeach the emperor and interfere with the imperial power, so as to avoid the situation of the emperor's arbitrary and chaotic government.

In order to ensure that the imperial power was not overthrown, the emperor set up the East and West Audit Factory to supervise the words and deeds of the prime minister, the cabinet and hundreds of officials.

The owner of the east factory inspected, and the owner of the west factory spied, one bright and one dark, defending each other's imperial power.

Since the Wulie case, the emperor was extremely dissatisfied with the West Factory, and after the large-scale purge, he no longer appointed foreign ministers, and replaced the commander of the East and West Factory with a member of the clan, and the Li family was the emperor's protégé.

Li Congxin held the post of admiral of the West Factory, while the East Factory was in charge of Cui Jingxuan's father, Fen Hou.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Congyi said to Gu Huanyi: "The Shen family's case involves the Gu family, and even the queen mother, I am afraid that there are others behind it." This case cannot be taken lightly, I will go to see Fenhou, you stay at home and don't go out. ”

Gu Huanyi nodded again and again, and after putting on the fur hat for Li Congxin, he sent him out.

Hu Shen and Liu Pei both went to the Fenhou Mansion with Li Congxin, Gu Huanyi pondered at home alone, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the Shen family's attitude was strange.

The Shen family seemed to have to splash dirty water on the Gu family, and they didn't blame the Tang family for treating the Shen family harshly.

When the Shen family came to Gu Jiayi before, they were running around for the reinstatement of Tang Duwei, which was enough to see that she was not doing well in the Tang family.

Didn't she tell her family about her condition at all?

Gu Huanyi didn't believe it.

Shen died in the well of the Tang family, if he really killed him, the murderer must be someone from the Tang family, is the husband and wife incompatible, or is there another motive for killing? Gu Huanyi didn't dare to conclude yet.

But the Tang family dared to splash dirty water on the queen's mother, but they really ate the leopard's gall!

Li Congxin acted quickly, and after Fenhou intervened in the case, he led the Jinyi guard of the East Factory to quickly take away the Tang family and the Shen family for questioning.

The Tang family's front foot was taken away, and Xingyun immediately inquired about important news from Mama Zhou in the palace.

Since Concubine Zhen was almost killed and misconceived on the Shangyuan Lantern Festival last year, Concubine Zhen changed the people who served around her, and Mama Zhou is now working in the Lan Concubine Palace.

Mama Zhou heard that there was a fatal lawsuit between the Tang family and the Gu family, and when she saw the Tang family entering the palace to find Concubine Lan, she specially eavesdropped on the side.

Xingyun relayed: "Fang's daughter-in-law, Tang, entered the palace to find Concubine Lan and begged Concubine Lan to save her brother. Concubine Lan scolded the Tang family and asked her not to lead the Tang family's misfortune to the Fang family. Seeing that Concubine Lan refused to reach out to help, Tang said that her brother killed the Shen family in order to conceal the crime for the Fang family, and the Fang family couldn't ignore it! Concubine Lan was very angry when she heard this, slapped the Tang family, scolded her for being crazy and talking nonsense, and ordered the palace people to escort her back to the Fang family and strictly guard her. ”

In order to cover up the Fang family's crimes, Tang Hao killed the Shen family!

This not only confirmed Tang Hao's murderous crime, but also involved the Fang family's crime, and I don't know what it is, when the Shen family knows about it, he will be exterminated......

Gu Huanyi cautiously asked, "Is Mama Zhou's news reliable?" ”

Xingyun said: "In the past two years, Mama Zhou's nephew has received a lot of favors from our family, and Mama Zhou is looking forward to this nephew to give him a pension, and he should not lie." ”

The Fang family not only refused to save the Tang family, but also imprisoned the Tang family, at this moment, it was the best time for the Tang family to turn against the Fang family, and she might be able to become a breakthrough in the investigation.

Gu Huanyi summoned Xingqing and asked, "The relationship between Jin Sang and the Fang family is normal, right?" ”

Xing Qing nodded and said, "Everything is as usual, the Fang family wants to rush to make Fang Yurong's dowry, and there is a lot of work, and the shopkeeper has been going to the Fang family more often recently." ”

Gu Huanyi said: "That's good, please ask the shopkeeper to help me inquire about the eldest daughter-in-law Tang in the Fang family, I heard that she was locked up, I don't know what the current situation is." ”
