"What did you say?" Aunt Wen pouted and got up from her chair excitedly.

"Madame's business, the outside knows." Aunt Xia had already laughed in her heart, and someone would give her a pillow when she fell asleep, which was really great.

"How is that possible?" The people in the mansion have been warned by the master, and for the sake of their own lives, they don't dare to tell what happened in the mansion, how can they be known.

The people know about it, and all the prefectures in the capital are afraid that they also know it, how can this be good? The eldest young master's wedding date is imminent, and if this matter is troubled, I am afraid that he will regret his marriage.

No one will marry their daughter into the Wang family again, and if the mother-in-law does such a humiliating thing, her daughter will suffer from white eyes when she enters the Wang family, and that is her mother-in-law.

"It's true, how dare I joke about it." Aunt Xia was a little angry and pouted unhappily.

When she is really willing to take care of this matter, she is wishing that the reputation of the Wang family is as bad as possible, but now she is the first person to know, if she does not inform the master as soon as possible, and when the master knows, her fate will definitely not be good, although she doesn't care, but she can be well, why can't she be good.

"You can't let people spread it, right?" Aunt Wen directly suspected Aunt Xia, because of Miss Seven's matter, Aunt Xia and Mrs. were very disagreeable, and hated Mrs. very much, so it was not an exaggeration to put the suspicious eyes on her.

I believe that other people will also make such doubts, after all, the facts are in front of them.

"Sister Wen, what do you mean? Yes, I'm very happy that my wife has been retributed, but I still have to survive here, how can I do something to cut off my own way out, I am open-minded, you can send someone to check and see if I let people leak it. When Aunt Xia heard that Aunt Wen directly doubted herself, she became angry and looked at Aunt Wen with a sneer.

She really wanted to do that, but before she could act, someone else did it for her.

"It's really not you?" Aunt Wen saw Aunt Xia's frank face, and asked again uncertainly.

"It's not. Sister Wen still thinks about how to tell the master, I'll go back. After speaking, he turned around and walked away in a chic manner.

She won't get involved in this matter anymore, someone has already received the retribution they deserve, she doesn't want to get involved in anything anymore, let them go.

Aunt Wen looked at Aunt Xia's back and was stunned for a while, and then went straight to the study to find the master, this matter was no longer something she could manage.

After Wang Jichang left the main courtyard, he locked himself in the study, and he didn't see anyone, not even lunch, so he took it back to the kitchen and threw it away.

Wang Jichang's personal servant has always been guarding the door of the study, and as soon as he is instructed, he can go to handle it for Wang Jichang in time.

Seeing Aunt Wen coming, she walked forward quickly, "Why did Aunt Wen come over?" But what's the matter? ”

"How's the master?" Aunt Wen asked Wang Jichang first.

The little guy shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Go and tell the lord that I have something important to look for him, and I will say that it is about the morning." Aunt Wen didn't want to bother at this time, but what could she do, it had already been rumored all over the city outside, and this matter had to be decided by the master.

"Aunt Wen, the last thing my lord wants to mention now is this morning's incident, didn't you hit the muzzle of the gun." In the morning, everyone avoided it, why did Aunt Wen still mention it, I don't know if the old man's anger has not subsided until now, why can't he see it like that.

"~~ You just tell the master that what is happening in the house is spreading outside, and you have to let him make up his mind." Aunt Wen saw that the little girl was like this, so she could only tell him the news brought by Aunt Xia and let him bring a message to the master.

"Aunt Wen, didn't the master say this, no one can leak it out, otherwise they will be beaten to death directly. Where did you hear that? The little guy thinks it's unlikely, the old man has spoken, who is so afraid of death that he dares to poke this thing out.

"You hurry up and inform the master, I'm afraid that I won't think of a way again, I'm afraid that it will be passed to the palace, don't the one above knows, can the master's black gauze hat still be kept?" What's the use of telling her so much, the master is the head of the family, and the master has to make up his mind about this matter.

Seeing that Aunt Wen didn't look like she was lying, and knew that things could be big or small, she hurriedly walked into the study and informed Wang Jichang of the news brought by Aunt Wen.

After Wang Jichang heard this, a mouthful of blood sprayed out uncontrollably, and the rice paper placed on the table was full of scarlet dots.

"Who? Who leaked it, check, check for me. Wang Jichang wiped it, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth fiercely, clenched his fists, and gritted his teeth and commanded.

"Yes, sir."

"Let Aunt Wen in." Wang Jichang suffered blows one after another, and he was a lot of decadent at once, and his face was even more pale and could fall down at any time.

The little maid took the order and walked out of the study and came to Aunt Wen's side, "Aunt Wen, the master will let you in." ”

Aunt Wen nodded at the little girl and walked into the study.

"Sir." Across the table, Aunt Wen called Wang Jichang.

"How do you know?" Wang Jichang asked with a gloomy face.

"Sister Xia came over and told the concubine. Sister Xia said that it was because Jin Lan went shopping for her, and she heard that the streets and alleys were talking, so she rushed over to tell the concubine, and the concubine came to find the master after hearing it. "Aunt Wen didn't hide it at all, as long as the master sent someone to investigate, she would soon know about it, and it was better to explain it honestly.

"Aunt Xia, I think she revealed it." Wang Jichang smiled sarcastically. Aunt Xia doesn't like anyone now, even him, she doesn't pay attention to her.

How can he be blamed for Wang Yashan's matter, if he doesn't do that, the reputation of the Wang family will really be lost.

Compared with the Wang family, she is just a concubine, and if she abandons it, she will abandon it, what is there to pity, the reputation of the Wang family is the most important thing.

"The concubine also suspected that it was Sister Xia, but her eyes were very open, and there was no weakness at all, and the concubine guessed that this matter should have nothing to do with her." Aunt Wen didn't protect Aunt Xia, she just said something realistic.

Wang Jichang was silent all of a sudden, he wasn't from the house, so who could it be? Who hates the Wang family so much, and it doesn't count if the Wang family is not uprooted.

"Master, do you think it could be the person behind this incident?" She had suspected that Madame's matter was a trap set by others, that is, to make Madame difficult to argue, and even affect the entire Wang family.

"The people behind it? Are you saying that Madame's business is likely to have been framed? As soon as Aunt Wen said this, Wang Jichang calmed down, looked back on the whole thing, and from his wife's reaction, it didn't seem to be like it, and she also kept saying that she was wronged and framed.

"The concubine body really thinks so." Seeing that the master took the initiative to mention it, Aunt Wen affirmed.

If it was really framed, then the matter was over, and the people who wanted to come behind the scenes did not leave the house, and kept watching the development of the situation in the shadows, and when the curtain ended, they poked out the things here.

People on the outside don't care if it's true or not, it's just to add some fun to life.

"Warn the people below and let them remember what to say and what not to say. If people outside asked, they would say that there was no such thing at all. Gotta bite me. This time, the eldest young master's wedding, I will handle it well, and on that day, let the lady come out and tell her the seriousness of the situation. For the sake of her children's belief that she knows what to do. ”

"The concubine knows. So, sir, the rumors outside? ”

"Leave it alone, as long as we ignore it, the rumors will be self-defeating. Let them all keep my mouth shut. "As long as the people in the house don't reveal a word, the people outside will speculate at most, and after a long time, this matter will pass.

Rumors can only let time fade, if you interfere, it will seem that you want to cover up, and the people behind the scenes want to watch the play, but he won't let it. Tomorrow, he will go to the court.

"The concubine will beat her subordinates well." Aunt Wen didn't dare to stay longer, she was really tired to death this day, and the housekeeper really didn't deserve it.

As soon as Aunt Wen left, Wang Jichang couldn't hold on, he just said it nicely, he wanted to put the Wang family in the fire pit and couldn't extricate himself, this person who manipulated behind his back was really hateful.

He, since he became an official, has been cautious and cautious, even if he stood in line, he also thought twice before making a decision, he really didn't know who he had offended.

Such a person hiding in the shadows is the most terrifying, he doesn't know when he will give himself a heavy blow, he doesn't even know how to die, and he can't be depressed.

At the end of the day, it's really exhausting, and no one can stand such a blow.

It wasn't until the lamp was held that the little girl returned to the study.

"Master, let the little ones check it, the first rumor came out of the mouths of several beggars, and from the beggars, it was learned that a middle-aged man about forty or fifty years old gave the beggars ten taels of silver and asked them to spread rumors in various places in the city." The little guy told Wang Jichang everything he inquired about.

Middle-aged men in their forties and fifties, there are more such people, where are you going to find them in the vast sea of people? "Can someone draw a portrait?"

"Master, I've already asked people to draw it, this is the person." The little servant handed the portrait in his hand to Wang Jichang.

Wang Jichang unfolded the portrait and took a look, it was really a middle-aged man, there were so many beards on his face, almost covering most of his face, this painting was equal to nothing, and he ravaged the portrait angrily and threw it into the paper basket, which instantly became useless garbage.

Wang Jichang's family made a big fuss, and he went to the court early the next morning, and was directly called to the imperial study by the emperor after the dispersal of the dynasty.

Wang Jichang stood there tremblingly, waiting for the emperor's fate.

"Wang Aiqing, you are really good at your skills, how can everything that happened in the capital have anything to do with you? Tell me what this is? Early in the morning, before he went to the court, the official came to sue Wang Jichang first.

First let his daughter go to slander the new champion and now the six products of the Hanlin Academy, after being exposed by the lord of Lingxi County, and expelled the concubine from the house, within a few days, the whole capital went viral again, saying that his wife brought him a green hat in the house, adultery, and was caught by him and imprisoned his wife.

One by one, these piles have become the talk of the entire capital in their leisure time, which is really embarrassing.

These people are getting bolder and bigger, and they dare to do things that damage their reputation in this big court, no wonder that little girl said so ugly, the words were ugly, but I have to say that she was not wrong.

Yes, a woman's innocence is important, but a man's is not important, and a man deserves to be relied on by a woman, what is the reason? Women are weak and need protection, so men should be unlucky to suffer from the loss?

"Wechen~~Wechen~~ Wechen is guilty." Wang Jichang stammered and knelt down.

"Guilty, not guilty. I will go back and think about it behind closed doors for three months, and I will be fined for half a year. Get out. Jun Yanluo directly told him to get out, seeing him, his head hurt, why didn't he stop.

"Your Majesty, Weichen's son will get married next month, this~~" It's okay to think about it behind closed doors, but you can't ignore your son's wedding.

"On the day of your wedding, I will allow you to see you." On the day of the wedding, I can't embarrass him, and he is not an unkind person.

"We're thanking you." Wang Jichang quickly withdrew from the imperial study.

"Father-in-law Xu, let the third prince go to Jiangnan to exchange Lord Min back." This third son, his brain is good, but it's a pity that he likes to be smart, thinking that he doesn't know, but in fact, he doesn't know anything.

Wang Jichang is his person, he didn't do this to please the third child, the third child didn't eat a good fruit from Ah Bing once, so he moved his mind.

Didn't he always want to go to Jiangnan, then he would satisfy him this time, he wanted to take a good look at how far this San'er could go, Jiangnan is a piece of fragrant bread, everyone wants to take a bite.

"Your Majesty, you are~~~~" Gonggong Xu was taken aback by the emperor, why did the emperor mention this matter at this time.

"I've got to give them a chance, or they won't go wrong. Do as I say. Jun Yanluo looked anxious for them, so he simply added fuel to the fire.

"The old slave is going." Three princes, three princes, look at the things that the people under your hands have done, it's good to put you in your pocket. The emperor did this, and it was clear that he had begun to suppress it.

When the third prince received the emperor's dictation, the whole person was blinded, and he didn't know what was going on, why did he suddenly let him go to Jiangnan, and his father had not made it clear before, was this a temptation or simply let him go back to Lord Min?

"Father-in-law Xu, did my father really let me go to Jiangnan?" The third prince was a little unconvinced, he was worried that his father was testing him.

"Yes, that's how the emperor ordered the old slave to pass on the message."

"I'm tired of Father-in-law Xu running this trip, and being a little careful is not respectful." The third prince was used to coming to things, so he immediately stuffed a purse for Gonggong Xu.

Gonggong Xu pinched it slightly, and accepted it with joy, anyway, this is acceptable within the scope of the emperor, and they will accept it for him. "No trouble, no trouble. The third prince, let's set off as soon as possible. The old slave took his leave. ”

As soon as Gonggong Xu left, the staff members around the third prince couldn't bear it, "Your Highness, this is a good opportunity." You have to take advantage of it. "In this place of Jiangnan, although their people have infiltrated it, but those people are all human spirits, and they can't see tangible benefits, they won't easily agree, this time His Highness can go to Jiangnan in person is not the best time.

"This matter is not urgent, I don't know what my father means?" He still didn't feel at ease, he didn't believe that his father was really simple and asked him to exchange Master Min back.

"Your Royal Highness, no matter what the emperor means, if you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to have such a good opportunity again, those people can't see the real benefits, and they won't help you." They are all hundred-year-old clans, and they affect their whole body, and no one dares to gamble with the clansmen easily.

"I'll go to see my mother, you let people clean up first, and then we'll talk about it when the time comes." The third prince waved his hand to stop him from continuing.

He didn't know if this opportunity was rare, but he had to think about other things, this matter itself was inexplicable, so it was better to be cautious.

"Yes, the subordinates will go immediately."

In the palace of Concubine Chen, Concubine Chen sat on the main seat and worried, she already knew that her son was going to Jiangnan, this is a good thing, she should be happy, but she can't be happy, what is Jiangnan, that is a piece that everyone wants to gnaw, Lord Min is the emperor's person, and everything he does represents the emperor, this time the emperor suddenly let the three princes pass, and things are unusual, but I am afraid that it is not a good thing.

When her son comes, she has to give a good advice, but she can't do anything harmful to others and herself with a brain fever, maybe she will wait for him to jump into the pit by himself.

"Niangniang, Your Highness is so smart, you will definitely not act recklessly, you can relax." Seeing Concubine Chen's sad face, Mama kindly persuaded her.

"Hey, I'm afraid that he will be smart and mistaken, and it will be too late to say anything." My son is smart, but it's because she's too smart that she worries her even more.

"No, Your Highness is measured."

"Niangniang, the third highness is down."

"Mother."

"I'm here, sit." As soon as Concubine Chen saw the third prince, she swept away her previous sorrow and said with a smile.

"The mother must have heard that the son is here to say goodbye to the mother."

"I know, I know, I don't know what your father means? You should be careful, don't be reckless, don't get too close to the clan in the south of the Yangtze River, the mother is worried that it will cause your father to be dissatisfied. This is not urgent. "Concubine Chen is really worried that she is not by her son's side, her son is impulsive, and when the time comes, Yuanshui will not be able to save the near fire.

"Don't worry, the concubine, the son knows it. I won't let my mother worry about it. "It's weird, he'll be careful.

"Mother knows that my son can understand. When to go? ”

"I'll leave after a while, my son is not here, and you have to take care of your body, concubine." I don't know when I will be able to come back when I go to Jiangnan.

"You don't have to worry about the concubine in the palace, but you are yourself, you must take good care of yourself."

"Yes, the sons will. The mother concubine and the sons and daughters will not stay much. ”

"Okay, stay safe on the road, and come back with a letter." The mother is worried.
