Chapter 40 The old fox goes mad ([-])

Xia Yueliang stuck out her tongue: "As long as Daddy doesn't betray me, how could Grandma know?"

Xia Huaixun flicked a finger on her forehead: "You are smart!"

The father and daughter deduced the possible situations again, trying not to miss anything.

After discussing properly, Xia Huaixun went to the inner room to change into outer clothes.

"After such a long delay, your grandmother must be waiting anxiously. Let's go to pay her respects together."

"Recently, grandma is talking about daddy every day. You go to talk to her old man first, and I have to urge my second sister to practice piano."

"What the hell is Yue'er planning?"

"No, I'm just worried that my second sister will be lazy."

"Okay, remember to come over with Shuang'er to have dinner with your grandmother later."

Xia Yueliang responded and walked out of the study together with him.

In front of Xia Huaixun, Chunzhuo and Mingjia didn't dare to say much, so they could only follow behind and enter the second gate.

Back at Xuexiaoyuan, the impatient Naruka couldn't hold back anymore.

"Girl, Wen old fox is not what it is in the legend."

Xia Yueliang raised her eyebrows: "Then what does he look like?"

Mingjia said: "This servant thought that today's dishes were not to his liking, and wanted to take the opportunity to cure him.

Who knows that he doesn't only eat vegetables and tofu, but eats everything. "

Chunzhuo also said: "This servant has never seen such a picky eater, he eats spicy food better than His Majesty, he can even eat the fishy milk-skin milk tofu in Yasu City.

Looking old and shriveled, he still has a good appetite. His majesty and fourth master combined don't eat as much as him alone. "

Mingjia added: "From now on, let's stop calling him Old Fox, and call him Old Rice Bucket instead!"

Xia Yueliang was amused.

How nice it is to eat anything, especially those dairy products that aliens love.

The old fox's tail is hidden too well, and any small detail may become a breakthrough.

※※※※

After leaving the Grand Master's Mansion, Wen Jing returned directly to his own mansion.

Upon receiving the news, his eldest son Wen Chengzong and second son Wen Chengde hurried over.

Wen Jing married very late, at the age of 27, he became a Jinshi and was favored by the Lu family, and he didn't become a father until he was nearly [-] years old.

Therefore, the eldest son Wen Chengzong was only 25 or [-] years old, and his official position was not high. He worked as a doctor in the Duzhi Division of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The second son, Wen Chengde, was a concubine, and he was in charge of taking care of the family affairs on weekdays, and he was the last of several sons who was the most docile.

The two brothers saluted and stood aside very respectfully.

Wen Jing looked at the two sons, and couldn't help but compare them with Xia Huaixun.

He was not as good as Xia Ningze in any aspect, and was almost suppressed by the other party for half his life.

After decades of hard work, it has finally come to the current situation.

But what about the juniors?
His son Xi Wu can guard one side, and his son Wen can be appreciated by His Majesty.The eldest grandson is young and promising, and even the twelfth or thirteen-year-old granddaughter is clever, making His Majesty happy.

Looking back at my own family, none of my children and grandchildren are successful, and they are useless at critical times.

"Why are there just you two, the third and fourth?" Wen Jing asked.

Wen Chengzong said cautiously: "The third brother is still in the farm, and the fourth brother has gone to the emperor's eldest grandson's mansion."

Wen Jing got lucky and decided not to think about those two bastard sons for the time being.

He said coldly: "What's the matter with Ji Muqing? What's the matter with Gu Yannan?"

Wen Chengde didn't dare to say anything, Wen Chengzong bit the bullet and said: "Back to father, Ji Muqing hooked up with Gu Yannan, the secret agent of Nayu State, and betrayed Fengguo..."

Wen Jing raised his eyes to look at him, there was a cold light in those usually seldom bright eyes, Wen Chengzong felt his back go numb, and he didn't dare to continue talking.

Wen Jing scolded sharply: "Ji Muqing is traitorous? Thanks to you guys who figured it out! Others are prudish, he is straight from the hair to the toes.

A person who has been an official for many years and never clings to the powerful, you can actually frame him! "

Wen Chengzong thought to himself, his father didn't know where he was stimulated today, and he was able to say such brazen words.

Seeing that his elder brother was silent, Wen Chengde couldn't help arguing: "It is precisely because Ji Muqing doesn't cling to anyone that he is the most suitable to take the blame... Besides, he is not an important person, and it would be very troublesome to bite anyone when he is crazy..."

"To blame?" Wen Jing frowned: "What crime to blame?"

Wen Chengde didn't dare to speak anymore, and secretly abducted his elder brother.

Wen Chengzong said: "It's not that Gu Yannan, who has been pretending in the capital for more than two years, making himself look like some kind of big shot.

The eldest grandson of the emperor has always cherished talents, so it is inevitable that he has more contact with him on weekdays.

Now that the Dong Chuang incident has happened, it must be cleared up..."

Wen Jing asked again: "Whose idea was it to frame Ji Muqing?"

Wen Chengzong said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness can't help it, who would have thought that Gu Yannan is actually a secret agent of the State of Yu."

"Then do you think it's clear?"

"It should be..."

Wen Jing let out a long sigh.

"The number of Chinese, Chinese and military officials in North Korea is so large, what kind of person is needed for which position, His Majesty is like a mirror in his heart.

Ji Muqing is indeed pedantic, but Yushi Zhongcheng needs someone like him to do it.

Now that he is gone, there will inevitably be some competition for this position, and it may not be easy to find someone who is equally pedantic. "

The two brothers finally understood this time, the father was worried that Taishi Xia's people would occupy the position of Yushi Zhongcheng, and it would be even more inconvenient for them to act in the future.

But hearing Jing sighed again: "Forget it, whether we can pass this test now depends on His Majesty's will.

Now he valued Xia Huaixun more and more, and the words of being a father in many things didn't work anymore. "

At its root, it's all about money.

In the past few years, the prince has fallen out of favor, and he needs to win people's hearts more and more.

Lu and Su have filled in too much over the years, and it is really beyond their ability to continue.

It doesn't matter whether Gu Yannan is talented or not, but it is true that he spends a lot of money.

The eldest grandson of the emperor is about the same age as him, so it is not surprising that the prince arranged to win him over.

"It's also my fault for being careless, Gu Yannan has been in the capital for more than two years, although you often hear him mentioned by you, he never really takes this person seriously.

I never thought that at such a young age, this young man is actually the secret agent of the State of Yu! "

Wen Chengzong hurriedly said: "How can you blame your father for this matter, you are in a high position and you have to deal with everything, Gu Yannan is just a young man who has just reached the crown after all.

The matter has come to this, His Majesty still needs you to deal with His Highness the Crown Prince, otherwise..."

Wen Jing snorted coldly: "Ever since I became the son-in-law of the Lu family for my father, I have been an open prince and one party. If you are prosperous, you will be prosperous, and if you are hurt, you will be damaged. If His Highness loses his sacred heart, what good will it do for our Wen family?"

Wen Chengzong said: "Father's words are very true, but the Xia family can't even think about leaving Gu Yannan behind. If they operate well, they will definitely gain a lot."

Wen Jing looked at him suspiciously: "Are you sure?"

Wen Chengde took up the conversation: "Xia Ningze's second granddaughter, also known as Xia Huaiyu's daughter, has an unclear relationship with Gu Yannan.

We must not miss such a good opportunity! "
