Chapter Twenty-Eight: Pulling a Hair and Moving the Whole Body

"For the time being, there is no need for this, our evidence is not sufficient, even if the matter of the Xiao family is told to the saint, the saint may not immediately dispose of the two families."

Rong Xun stood by the window, put his hand on the windowsill, looked at the crowded scene on the street downstairs, and thought for a moment.

folded the note of the confession casually, handed it to Ling Shuo sideways, and then returned it to Yuyan for her to put away, these things are still useful, but at the moment they are just a piece of waste paper.

"In fact, the affairs of the court affect the whole body, and what Madame sees is only on the surface, as far as the Gu family and the Xiao family are concerned, they may just do things for others."

"What do you mean, sir? I don't understand. ”

Wei Ning looked at Master Rong silently, originally thinking that it was time to let the truth be made public, and he couldn't keep dragging it out, and he should give those wicked people a bitter taste.

can listen to Lord Rong's explanation in a few words, and his heart is confused and anxious, could it be that the previous guess was right?

"My lord, my subordinates have something to report, can I come in?" At this moment, a low call came from outside the elegant room, and a man who looked like a guard knocked on the door, asked for permission, and entered the room.

The man first asked Ling Shuo to go out, and the two pushed open the door and walked out and whispered a few words, but they didn't know what to say, and then walked to Lord Rong's side and replied: "My lord, something happened in the palace, I want my lord to enter the palace immediately." ”

Yuyan and Ziling were quite puzzled, Rong Dacai and Mrs. talked about important matters, and Mrs. was still waiting for a reply, but before the matter was clear, they had to leave.

Before they could explain, it was like something big had happened in the palace, and the three of them left in a hurry after saying goodbye.

The wine and food on the table in the elegant room did not move for half a minute, and the restaurant guy withdrew as it was.

It was not easy to go out of Gu's mansion, so I took the risk to come to discuss the fake silver ticket with Lord Rong, and I was also troubled by the hateful son of the Xiao family in the middle.

In the end, I didn't ask what was going on, and I had to go home after wasting a table of good wine and food.

At this time, in the hall of the Xiao family's compound, there was a clattering sound of a tea cup breaking.

"Bold rebel! Kneel here for me for two hours to reflect on what you did wrong in Heming Tower today! ”

Xiao Qijing and the eldest lady Wu sat on the same seat, and when they saw that the eldest prince was drunk and crooked, he was helped into it by his subordinates, and shouted angrily to let the little boy take down the rebel.

On the ground was the hot tea that the maid had just brewed, and the tea cup crumbs were splashed all over the ground, and the Gu people present were frightened.

As soon as the eldest prince came back from outside the house, he was called to the main hall of the front yard, who knew that it was a prodigal appearance of drunken mud, and the old man was returning from the scattered dynasty, and when he saw this scene, he naturally reprimanded the eldest prince.

However, this time the reprimand was far more severe than any previous time, and all the subordinates in the eldest prince's room were summoned, and they were all standing outside the door with their heads down, and no one dared to look up to look at the old man's angry face, and they were to blame them for being subordinates, and they couldn't stop the son from messing around outside.

The subordinates who served beside the lord knew the inside story, because the eldest prince was drinking all day and not saying anything, and he openly molested Mrs. Gu in the restaurant, and the lord learned the news from the palace and rushed back, this time the eldest prince really made a big disaster.

Xiao Yu was pressed by the little guy and knelt on the ground in embarrassment, his face was extremely ruddy due to drunkenness, and his eyes were even more drunk without a trace of brilliance, as if he was drunk and dreaming of death.

Wu's face was full of distress, and he went to pull his baby son up: "Master, what are you angry with Yu'er?" ”

"Yu'er hasn't married a wife yet, so naturally she is out for a while, and it will be good to wait for a few days to take care of the concubine and find a good family for Yu'er!"

After that, let the maid Yicui help the eldest prince to get up, and seeing Xiao Qijing, who spoiled the rebellious son in every way, he couldn't stand it anymore, and raised his eyebrows and pointed at Wu's nose and said angrily: "Your good son!" is flirting with Mrs. Gu Fu in Kyoto, what girl is willing to marry him like this? ”

"Sir? What did you say? Yu'er and Mrs. Gu? Wu's face was full of disbelief, and he didn't care about helping his son, but he was already shocked by the old man's words.

The Gu family and the Xiao family have always been good friends, and the second wife of the Gu family, the Qin family, has a good relationship with her, and often begs her to help with the mansion business.

However, this Mrs. Gu has been concerned about her origin, and vaguely remembers that the concubine Niangniang once praised her female red skills among the ladies in Kyoto.

Xiao Qijing was so angry that he couldn't breathe, and he regretted in his heart that he had indulged their mother and son too much over the years, and he didn't know how many things he had done behind his back that were not conducive to the Xiao family.

Na Rong is Yan Shoufu's beloved apprentice, and it seems that he has a relationship with Mrs. Gu, and today he happened to bump into the rebel son, and he wanted to mention it in the palace, but he didn't believe it, so he sent someone to inquire on the street to know that what he said was true.

The court is in the midst of many events, the saint has been assassinated by assassins outside the palace many times, and the marquis of Yu can't find out who the assassin is, if something really happens to the saint, the only one who can inherit the throne is the young Fifth Highness, then the cabinet must be an auxiliary minister, how dare he offend the cabinet people?

Xiao Dagongzi couldn't move his hands and feet, but he smiled and muttered in his mouth: "No matter who you are, you can't escape the ...... of the palm of this son's hand."

When Xiao Qijing heard this, he was so angry that he grabbed his eyebrows and beard: "Madam, listen, and have the face to ask what happened?" Just ask around the streets! There was a big incident in the palace today, and the saint was stabbed by an assassin again, if he was troubled by this rebel, my Xiao family might be a ginseng! ”

"Madam, think about my words, no one else is allowed to help the son up without my orders!" Dropping these words, Xiao Qijing strode out of the front hall, leaving the Wu family and the people in the courtyard shocked.

After a while, the second and third ladies came to the front hall.

When the two walked into the Wu family's room, the eldest prince was still kneeling on the ground and talking drunk.

"Why is the big brother kneeling on the ground! You cheap minions, don't let go of your brother quickly! Xiao Wan stepped forward and wanted to tear the little guy away, and scolded angrily.

Xiao Lanxin passed by Xiao Yu's side, as if she hadn't seen it, although she didn't know the reason, she knew that it must be her father's punishment.

The eldest brother Xiao Yu has never done his job, and he has a bad reputation in Kyoto, although his father is not as punished as this time, but he has been warned many times, and he must have done something bad to annoy his father.

Wu didn't follow his daughter's intentions this time, and asked Yi Cui to stop him with his backhand: "Lan Xin!" That's it! It's your eldest brother who made your father unhappy, let him kneel and sober up, just wait for his father's anger to disappear! ”

After speaking, he wiped his tears with a handkerchief, his heart was extremely distressed, and although his expression was sad, it was difficult to hide the hatred in his eyes.

Xiao Wan said angrily: "Brother, what did he do wrong? Isn't my father very tolerant of my brother on weekdays? ”

"It's not that Mrs. Gu family who seduced your brother, your brother did something wrong on impulse, and your father heard it out of nowhere and rushed back to the house in anger." Wu added oil and vinegar to the matter, hating the foxy woman who seduced her son.

"It's her!" As soon as Xiao Wanxin heard Mrs. Gu's words, anger instantly surged into her heart, and she grabbed her handkerchief and said stiffly, "Mother, I recognize her!" She once stole the limelight from me in front of the Fifth Hall in the palace! ”

"It's disgusting!"

"And such a thing?" Wu Shi heard this for no reason, and immediately asked to the end, and Xiao Wanxin told all about the chess game that day.

"This Miss Wei is really amazing! Gu Shangshu didn't say anything, but he even started the idea of my daughter and son! I'm going to have to give her some color! ”

After some conversation, Wu's heart was on fire, and he couldn't wait to go to Mrs. Gu to settle the account, and the mother and daughter had already begun to plan how to deal with Mrs. Gu.

Xiao Lanxin, who sat silent for a long time, did not think the same as them, Mrs. Gu was kind-hearted and had helped her out of the siege, not the foxy woman that the two of them said slandered.

So I kept today's events in mind, and I would remind her when I saw Mrs. Gu in the future.

Wu was relieved after talking to his daughter, and Xiao Dagongzi did not kneel for two hours, and let the maid help him down early to feed the sobering soup, and let everyone disperse without saying a word.
