Chapter 421: Self-Inflicted Cleverness
ο»Ώ
Aunt Xia's eyes flashed with joy, but her actions became slow and methodical, and she changed her eagerness, and said slowly: "General, don't worry, in fact, this is a matter...... There are not a few people who know, it was before Mrs. Zun got married, at that time, our grandfather had a private relationship with Mrs. Zun, but your family affairs were booked quickly, so that Grandpa Guo was caught off guard, helpless to drink hatred, and was depressed for many years-" She quietly looked at Liu Dongxing again.
Liu Dongxing was unmoved, still maintaining his originally somewhat weird smile, repeating again: "How did my aunt find out?" What are you going to do? β
Aunt Xia suddenly felt that something was wrong, this General Liu's reaction didn't seem to be as excited as she imagined, she wondered if she had used the wrong method, so she began to hesitate: "This ...... Grandpa Guo will be in a bad mood when he thinks about it...... There is always a time to confide in the people around them, the slave family is loved by the grandfather of the country, and I have heard of it some......" She glanced at Liu Dongxing carefully, "The slave family actually doesn't have any plans, but I heard that the general is prestigious, and I can't bear to humiliate the general......"
Liu Dongxing tugged at the corners of his mouth: "It turns out ...... Did Grandpa Guo tell his aunt? βγ The hateful Zhu Jingshen can't control his mouth, what face does he have to say to repay his kindness?
"Yes...... Oh, yes. Aunt Xia was a little weak-hearted, in fact, she only found out when she overheard the conversation between the mother and daughter of Kang Guogong Zhu Jingshen's cronies, she was really angry at that time, and she was afraid that Guogong would know, so she didn't dare to ask for details, but it would make Guogong so obsessed, and personal exchanges were naturally inevitable, she didn't lie.
Liu Dongxing looked at her, as if asking casually: "Aunt said that many people know, how is this possible?" I've never heard of anything like that. β
Aunt Xia squeaked: "Everyone who waits around Grandpa Guo knows...... The palace must also know, and it is not surprising that the general does not know, how could Mrs. Zun tell you such an ugly thing? β
The woman was lying
Liu Dongxing immediately came to a conclusion, and although he was angry in his heart, he was also relieved. Maybe Zhu Jingshen acted carelessly and confided in the person next to him, but if many people knew about it, it would be impossible. Zhu Jingshen's cronies may be aware of it, and the prince and wife of the East Palace will also have a chance to know, but others may not have such thoughts at all. Wen Yi and Zhu Jingshen have nothing to do with each other at all, even if this woman is talking nonsense outside, no one will believe it.
Now that he has a conclusion, Liu Dongxing no longer has the patience to talk to Aunt Xia, so he nodded casually: "So that's the case, thank you aunt for telling me that this general still has official business, so I will leave first." "Turn around and go.
Aunt Xia was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shouted, "General Liu, you ...... You're just gone? β
"Auntie, do you have anything else to say?"
"I ......" Aunt Xia was a little dazed, Liu Dongxing's reaction was completely different from what she imagined, and she didn't know how to react, "It's nothing, it's just ...... Isn't General Yoo angry? Don't...... Just don't plan to do anything? β
Liu Dongxing raised his eyebrows: "What does my aunt think I should do?" β
Aunt Xia opened her mouth, as if she was hesitating whether to say it bluntly: "This ...... After all, it is the general's family affair, and it is not good for the slave family to interfere without authorization......"
Liu Dongxing's eyebrows raised even higher: "Auntie has already spoken to this point, what else is there to hesitate about?" β
Aunt Xia smiled, and the fan in her hand covered her mouth and nose: "The general is really refreshing...... After speaking, her expression suddenly changed, "Actually, this matter is not good, and it is also very bad for the general's reputation, but if nothing happens, the slave family will be wronged by the general...... It's better for the general to find a reason, or a bad illness, or a bad wordβit's an irrelevant crime after all, and ask Mrs. Zun to go back to her mother's house." With the general's scenery today, are you still worried that you can't marry a famous lady? As long as the arrangements are made properly, the general can not only gain a good reputation, but also not be afraid that he will be burdened by Mrs. Zun's old affairs, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? β
Liu Dongxing's face sank, but he quickly regained his composure, so fast that Aunt Xia thought that she was just dazzled, and thought that she was very thoughtful: "The slave family knows that the general will worry about criticism, but compared to the humiliation caused by being exposed in the future, what is this criticism?" Maybe there will be people who will admire the general's foresight."
Liu Dongxing stared at her for a long time before he said slowly, "Really? The general really thanked his aunt for the reminder. Indeed, there are some things that should be guarded against before they are burned, and being too tolerant and generous will only bring trouble to yourself. β
Aunt Xia was overjoyed: "What the general said is very ...... Are you going to ......"
"General Ben knows what to do, so he doesn't need to worry about his aunt." Liu Dongxing arched his hand casually, "I'll leave." "Turn around and go. This time, no matter who calls him, he won't stop, he must first find his friend Luo Mingmin, find out the origin of this aunt, and then deal with it. What would dare to step on his head Liu Dongxing?
Aunt Xia watched Liu Dongxing wave her sleeves away, and she seemed to be a little angry when she raised her hand, but she was indescribably happy in her heart. She smugly thought that this time her plan would be successful
The purple-clothed girl Zihuan Zi Tong quietly returned to her and asked softly, "Auntie, what are you saying these words to this General Liu?" The slave maid heard that this General Liu is very amazing, he is not an ordinary person, even Grandpa Guo has to give him three points, if you annoy him and let Grandpa Guo know, wouldn't it be ......"
"What do you know?" Aunt Xia rolled her eyes, "I just did this for the sake of my grandfather, this Liu Dongxing is a famous general, it is true, but his wife is also from a famous family, his family background is not weaker than him, and he can't kill his wife if he is angry, but this kind of thing is unbearable for any man, and the final result is either to find a reason to divorce his wife, or to snub his wife and take another room." Another room is just a concubine, and you can't walk around seriously outside, so the best way is to divorce your wife and marry another person, and then our grandfather will have a chance, and the main room is not to be counted on, and a concubine can still do it. β
Zi Tong looked at her in disbelief: "Auntie has worked so hard just to add a concubine to Grandpa Guo?" Auntie, didn't you suffer a loss? β
Aunt Xia snorted coldly and pulled down her face: "Are you willing to do it?" Before we left Beijing, I went to the palace to say goodbye to the queen, and I heard that the former sisters were discussing, saying that the queen was showing the princess of the country about family affairs, and it was very likely that the daughter of the Yao family said that the people of King Kang's mansion had caused such a big disaster, and the grandfather himself was confused, and he could still get out safely, and he was promoted to the rank of knight, as long as he acted smoothly in Kangcheng, he would have made a great contribution to the capital, and it was not impossible to go up. The saint and the prince treat the prince so well, how can the queen not be moved? Seeing that the saint's body is not as good as day by day, the queen mother also has to think about the future. β
Zi Yu blinked: "This ...... Auntie, the slave and maid can't understand this, the queen wants to tell our grandfather about family affairs, what does it have to do with my aunt helping Grandpa to be a matchmaker? Didn't you just say that after General Liu's wife was divorced, it would be impossible for her grandfather to be the main room? β
"Why are you so stupid?" Aunt Xia stomped her feet, "I was given to Grandpa Guo from the palace, and Grandpa Guo spoiled me, but it was in the face of the queen's mother, don't look at how much he rewards me on weekdays, but in reality, I'm not a fool, how can I not see it?" In case the queen really marries her niece into the Guogong Mansion, do I still have a place to stand at home? But I can't stop this kind of thing, and the only way is to let Grandpa Guo remember me. I have thought about this Mrs. Liu for many years, then I will help him to hold the beauty, he accepted my love, even if Miss Yao enters the door and does the main room, Grandpa Guo will not let her sit up"
Zi Tong asked carefully: "Then the aunt is not afraid...... After Mrs. Liu entered the door, she was favored, and there was no aunt in the eyes of Grandpa Guo? β
Aunt Xia smiled contemptuously: "What am I afraid of?" She is a married woman, that is, she has been blessed to be able to enter the mansion to wait, and she will not be allowed to be decent if I go to the Zongren Mansion, but I am the queen of the palace who is seriously rewarded into the mansion, as long as the master remembers my goodness, who can compare with me? β
Zi Xiao's eyes rolled, and he smiled: "Auntie really has a good plan...... If General Naliu neither divorced his wife nor took a concubine, but annoyed the grandfather of the country because of this, how could it be good? They heard that they were extremely affectionate, so how could they easily divorce their wives because of a little rumor? On the contrary, it is possible to hold a grudge against the grandfather and aunt of Shangguo. β
"Afraid of what?" Aunt Xia tilted her neck, "No matter how powerful General Liu is, can he still argue with the nobles of the clan?" Grandpa Guo let him score three points, but it was just to give him face, if he really wanted to fight, he might not lose to him, no matter how bad Grandpa Guo was, he was also a child of the clan, and he was a royal bloodline, and there was no reason for the palace to be angry with his own son and nephew for an outsider. And I'm a person given by the palace, even if Grandpa Guo knows about it, even if he is annoyed for a while, he won't do anything to me, and after a long time, he will understand my sincerity, maybe he will be inspired by this, and let go of his hand to rob people."
Zi Xiao smiled and lowered his head, a mocking smile flashing in his eyes.
Aunt Xia's words reached the ears of Liu Dongxing and Luo Mingmin half an hour later, and they felt a little speechless when they saw the secret report sent by the eyeliner placed in the Kangguo Mansion.
Luo Mingmin said weakly: "Where did you find such a stupid person in the palace, just like this, he is still quite faceable in the Kangguo Mansion, is Zhu Jingshen really still a milky little ghost?" It's not an opponent at all."
Liu Dongxing sneered: "I think it's a rat bogey, right?" Because it was a person from the palace, he pretended to be pampered, and such a stupid woman could endure it, Zhu Jingshen's scheming was really unusual. Wen Yi told me that he was a different person, and told me not to be deceived by his appearance, which was really true. β
Luo Mingmin glanced at him cautiously: "You...... You're not angry? This guy actually dares to think badly about our brothers and sisters."
Liu Dongxing snorted: "I already knew, what is there to be angry about?" My wife is so good, it's not surprising that it's rare, but this person is really unbearable, and he would call a woman who can't get on the stage to restrain her. I've got to teach him a lesson."
Luo Mingmin straightened up: "You...... How are you going to teach him? β
Liu Dongxing glanced at him: "Just teach him like this, tell him to take care of his own people"
Sitting down and acting, it didn't take long for Liu Dongxing to appear in front of Zhu Jingshen again, tell all the words of Aunt Xia, and then look at him and said: "To be honest, the last general has never heard of Humble Jing and Grandpa Guo having private dealings, and this is too different from what Grandpa Guo said, and I also asked Grandpa Guo to clarify the doubts of the last general." β
Zhu Jingshen's face was pale, his fists were clenched, his green tendons exploded, and he gritted his teeth for a long time before he squeezed out a sentence: "General Liu, don't worry, my country's guild will give you ...... And Mrs. Zun an explanation"
