Guo Xun's matter was also full of wind and rain because of Mrs. Guo's trouble, and Mrs. Guo's stupid tricks were also instigated, and she was also sick and rushed to the doctor.

It was at this time that something happened in Hengyang, which has always been highly valued as the salt capital of the Great Wei Dynasty, although there is a monopoly on salt and iron, but because this decree was promulgated not for a long time, the power of Hengyang is intertwined, and private salt is still repeatedly prohibited.

And in this Hengyang there are five rich and seven nobles, five rich is the monopoly of Hengyang salt industry five families, seven noble is the Great Wei after the founding of the country in Hengyang near the noble and its branches. Guo Xun himself is also related to these five rich and seven nobles, otherwise he would not be able to mix well in Hengyang at that time.

The prince also valued him because of this, naturally, the prince and the Hengyang forces were mixed together, and it must not be what the eldest princess and the seventh prince were happy to see. It was easy for them to find Guo Xun's breakthrough, and of course they refused to let it go. The prince had a relationship with Guan Ping through Lin Qingyan, but the eldest princess and the seventh prince didn't think that the prince's beauty plan was clever, and the eldest princess could be regarded as having a face-to-face relationship with Sheng Mingzhu, and she also knew about the matter between Guan Ping and Sheng Mingzhu, so she was not optimistic about the prince's clever beauty plan.

Even when she heard that Sheng Mingzhu was driven back to her parents' house, she always felt that Guan Ping was not so simple. The Hope Sun Festival is just the beginning, and in order to bring down the prince and his henchmen, there must be a combination of schemes. Guo Xun's unfavorable handling is the first step, and the involvement with Hengyang is the most important thing, and the eldest princess also told the Seventh Prince that the forces that cannot be used must be cut and rooted.

On the other side, Sheng Mingzhu heard the news of the accident in Hengyang at home, and a corruption case because of salt swept the entire Great Wei Dynasty. Especially the people on the prince's side, they are even more panicked.

They have all taken the filial piety of Hengyang and fished the oil and water of salt and iron.

"Madam, many people over there have been imprisoned, and most of the people in the prince's hands have been removed, and now his vitality is greatly injured, Guo Xun is naturally in decline, I heard that the prince gave the seventh prince a slap in the face of the court this morning, and all the ministers watched." Jin Zhi even vividly reproduced how the crown prince beat the Seventh Prince.

Sheng Mingzhu sat in front of the dressing table to make up at this time, and looked at Jin Zhi's somewhat exaggerated interpretation, and he couldn't laugh.

"The prince is afraid that he will be angry, he has been operating the power for so many years, and the combination of the eldest princess and the seventh prince is not to mention uprooting, but it also hurts the foundation. Salt and iron have always been in the hands of the prince's faction, and the eldest princess and the seventh prince can't do it if they want to insert a finger, but fortunately they also thought of this idea. I'm afraid those people in Hengyang are also on the list of extermination of the Seventh Prince. They all said that they were breaking and then standing up, and they drove away the people who were in the way, so that they could replace them with their own. Sheng Mingzhu swept the beads in the makeup drawer, and sighed: "Woe to Xiao Wall, it was born from the same root." ”

Jin Zhi took the grate to comb Sheng Mingzhu's hair, and didn't forget to ask, "Then the eldest princess and the seventh prince are going to be proud?" "Generally speaking, there is always a winner and a loser in a fight.

"It's hard to talk until the end. The crown prince doesn't look like a human monarch, but the seven princes are not the style of the Holy Lord Mingjun, I look at Xuan. Sheng Mingzhu touched her bun: "Okay, so be it." ”

Before Jin Zhi could say anything, he was suddenly silenced. Sheng Mingzhu was surprised, and turned his head to see Dingguo Hou Guan Ping, who should not have appeared.

Looking at Sheng Mingzhu's surprised expression, Guan Ping coughed lightly before saying, "There is chaos in the court, and I don't have to worry about going home, so it's better to hide here with you." ”

Sheng Mingzhu squinted at him: "You're not afraid of losing the whole game if you accidentally do it, then your intention to paralyze the prince is not all over." Guan Ping was next to her and whispered in Mingzhu's ear: "The prince doesn't dare to offend me too much now, after all, he still wants the talisman in my hand." The previous thing is not a long lesson, and Adou who can't help him. ”

Sheng Mingzhu was itchy by his ears and temples, pushed him with one hand, and supported himself with the other hand to avoid it: "He is just too afraid that he will not have military power in his hands, but this military talisman is not as effective as the general who leads the troops when the matter comes." The soldiers don't look at the talisman every day, but their commander. ”

Guan Ping touched her face and smiled: "He is not as smart as my wife." ”

Sheng Mingzhu slapped his hand away: "Go." Now she is a cousin who has been kicked out. ”

Jin Zhi looked at him so tired, and hurriedly withdrew to pull the door, and when he went out, he covered his mouth and stole fun.

Shen Rong and Lingzhu were about to go to Sheng Mingzhu to talk, but they were stopped by Jin Zhi and pulled aside to whisper.

"Don't worry, he's fine, but we're here to worry." Hearing Jin Zhi say this, Shen Rong and Lingzhu hurriedly asked what was going on.

The three little girls hid not far away, waiting for Guan Ping to come out and laugh at him. But this wait is for most of the day, Shen Rong's mouth is fast, and she doesn't open the door at all: "I'm afraid it's not prostitution during the day." ”

Jin Zhi and Lingzhu hurriedly gagged her: "Bah, that's called boudoir fun." ”

When Guan Ping came out with Sheng Mingzhu, he saw the three girls sneakily peeking at them, biting their ears and whispering.

Guan Ping narrowed his eyes: "Go to Defu Building to eat sauce elbows." The three of you are still standing still, do you mean you don't want to go? The three of them had already heard the name of Defu Lou's elbow, so they hurried over, and their brother-in-law and cousin Hou Ye begged.

Defu House is the largest restaurant in the capital and has always been the first choice for dignitaries. It will introduce new dishes on the first day of each month, and although the prices are not low, they are also in short supply. In addition to new dishes, a well-known storyteller will also be invited.

The second child of Defu Lou obviously knew the Marquis of Dingguo, so he immediately greeted them and took them to the private room on the second floor.

Today is the story of Wei Shu Wu of the Three Kingdoms, saying that Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of Wei, and his wife Mrs. Ding had a quarrel over the matter of their eldest son, and Mrs. Ding returned to her parents' house in anger. Because the Great Wei and the Wei State have the same name, they all call the Wei State of the Three Kingdoms of Wei Shu and Wu the former Wei.

Guan Ping and Sheng Mingzhu and their entourage had just sat down, and there was a quarrel outside, and the topic still revolved around Sheng Mingzhu, just because it was decided that Mrs. Guohou was in the same situation as Mrs. Ding, but the cause was different.

The people outside also specially mentioned Lin Qingyan: "That Aunt Lin is a famous lady from the alley building, and in the early years, many princes and grandsons were fascinated by her, but now there is just one more Dingguo Marquis." I don't know how good Aunt Lin's kung fu is, Miss Sheng can't tolerate her. ”

Those people talked about meat, and the more they talked, the more energetic they became, and the more outrageous they became.

"Emperor Cao Cao of Wei Wu is married to a Mrs. Bian, what do you guess this Mrs. Bian's background is? Isn't it just the same as Aunt Lin, if you want me to say that this will be a romantic story in the future, hahaha......" A group of people started talking, and they were not afraid of others hearing it.

Guan Ping really couldn't listen to it anymore, he got up from the private room, let Sheng Mingzhu and the others sit in the private room, and walked out by himself.

"You just mentioned Mrs. Ding, how about I say it? Emperor Cao Cao of Wei respected Mrs. Ding all his life, Guan Ping did not dare to compare himself with Emperor Wu, but this Mrs. Sheng was also the wife he put on the tip of his heart, and Guan Ping never thought of marrying a woman other than Mrs. Sheng in his life. Guan Ping arched his hand.

The group thought that they had met someone who disagreed with them, so they also had the idea of fighting with each other.

"You are not the Marquis of Dingguo, how can you make a conclusion on his behalf, if you want me to say that the beautiful concubine is more favored." Some people are not convinced.

Guan Ping said with a smile: "Three thousand weak water, only take one scoop." My wife is good everywhere. ”

"People are the marquis of Dingguo, how can they be the same as you, I have never heard that this cousin can make her husband change his mind." Someone scoffed.

Guan Ping's eyes burned: "Because she is different from the woman next to her, she is Sheng Mingzhu." ”

When the group of people were still speechless with "facts", the shopkeeper had already run over with the menu, nodding and asking Guan Ping what he wanted, while looking at Guan Ping's face. I hated these blind people to death in my heart.

"What does Master Hou want?" Little 2WI asked tremblingly.

"That's all, Madame loves to eat." Guan Ping said.

Guan Ping glanced at the list, ordered a few more of Sheng Mingzhu's favorite food, and then left a group of stupid melons behind him and went straight back to the private room. Only the group of dumb melons who had just chatted vigorously were dumbfounded, too frightened to say another word. They arranged the affairs of Dingguohou here only as an after-dinner conversation, and they never thought of bumping into Dingguohou's family.

Within a few days, the gossip in the capital changed its version again. said that the Marquis of Dingguo loved Mrs. Sheng miserably, watched Mrs. Sheng return to her parents' house, and secretly went to find Mrs. for a tryst.

The central figure of the gossip, Sheng Mingzhu had no waves in his heart, and even wanted to get rid of that Lai Pihou.

Others should just listen to it for fun, but some people are so anxious that they burn their eyebrows.

In Qinghui Courtyard, Lin Qingyan also heard similar gossip, she didn't catch Lai Qi now, and she couldn't keep Guan Ping, and even more so that the prince was urging the talisman, which made her annoyed.

She knew that the prince was in a mess, and she was worried that the eldest princess and the seventh prince would not be able to turn over by taking advantage of the salt and iron case, and she was even more desperate to strike first, with no soldiers in her hands, and no bottom in her heart.

But this Dingguo Marquis ran to Sheng Mingzhu two times in three days, where did she have the opportunity to steal the talisman?

Lin Qingyan thought about it, and decided to take advantage of Guan Ping's return for dinner, she didn't have Zhou Xiang's arrangement now, and the prince was in a hurry, and there was no way to do it.

On this day, Guan Ping returned to the house after the court, he was already extremely tired, and today at the court meeting, the Hengyang salt case was discussed, and the two factions of the prince and the seventh prince were inseparable, and he estimated that it was time for the prince to jump over the wall in a hurry and come to get the talisman.

Sure enough, as soon as she returned home, she bumped into Aunt Lin, who was courteous, Lin Qingyan wore a water-red dress today and applied light makeup, which was more chic than her previous heavy makeup.

"Master Hou is back." Lin Qingyan smiled and groaned.
