Chapter 41 Banquet
It's already like this, the meal is naturally unbearable, and then everyone went back to their homes one after another,

On the way, Hualan kept thinking about what Minglan said. She knew about Lin Sushuang's adultery, but she didn't expect such a thing as murder, so she couldn't help asking Yuan Wenshao,
"Master Hou, do you think what Liu girl said is true? Is Lin Sushuang really the murderer who killed her little mother?"

"I think what those six girls are saying is [-]% likely to be true!"

"I thought that Lin Sushuang was just cheating on her daughter, and she was short-sighted. I didn't expect that there was still a life in his hands. Just now, Lord Hou should push the boat with the tide and kick that bitch out of the family tree, and he will never be able to stand up again!"

Yuan Wenshao reached out to hug Hua Lan, patted her lightly,

"I didn't do it for the face of my father-in-law. You didn't see his appearance at that time. Don't worry, my father-in-law is also a sensible person. Even for Brother Changfeng, he will not leave this trouble behind. He will definitely deal with it! "

Hua Lan nodded when he heard the words. Today's words are bound to be some gossip. For the sake of Changfeng's future, his father will handle it safely. He cares most about the family inheritance.

After Liang Han went back, he also began to investigate what happened back then. He asked Mo Lan's current envoy, and she also knew what happened back then. I hate Mo Lan, and will rest in other concubine's room for a lot of time in the future, making Mo Lan so angry!

On this day, Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan took Brother Shi to visit their aunt Shoushan uncle's mansion. During the dinner, aunt held Hua Lan's hand and whispered,
"You are a lucky child. Wen Shao has a successful career, and brother Shi also looks strong. I am relieved that your family lives peacefully and beautifully. I heard that your family has a good relationship with the British government?"

Hua Lan was slightly puzzled, thinking that her aunt asked the British government to do something, but she still told the truth,
"Yes, auntie, Lord Hou, the British father-in-law and the little father-in-law have all experienced the Northwest War together, so the friendship is not shallow!"

My aunt didn't want to do anything, but talked about gossip,
"I heard that the uncle of the country, General Shen, is said to spoil concubines and destroy his wives so much that he usually goes out with his concubine, and he doesn't answer his wife Zhang Da Niang. I didn’t come out to my own house, it’s said that the Duke’s wife has become ill with anger!”

Hualan was a little surprised, it's impossible to say, General Shen is the uncle of the country, he spoils his concubine and destroys his wife, where is the empress and the empress? Face off,
"Auntie's words are serious? Then Uncle Shen Guo dares to disrespect the British government like this?"

"That's not true, it's true! It's already started to spread outside, that Mrs. Zhang doesn't come out to socialize very much, she's afraid of losing the dignity of Shen and Zhang's family, I see, this matter is going to cause trouble!"

Hua Lan couldn't help but nodded when she heard the words, how could she not know the harm of spoiling concubines and destroying wives, her natal family is also a typical one, but her natal family is okay, at most it's just a back house, but the Shen and Zhang families are The big coal that the official family protects hopes to use it to form friendship with the forces in the military, but I didn't expect it to be so troublesome now.
Hua Lan told Yuan Wenshao the matter when she got home at night,

"This Uncle Shen Guo is too rampant. Relying on being the queen's younger brother, he doesn't pay attention to the old British general and treats Mrs. Zhang like this. It's really lawless!"

Yuan Wenshao knew that Shen Congxing was just spoiling his concubine too much, and didn't mean he didn't want to show the face of the British prince on purpose, but the fact of the matter was true. Yuan Wenshao estimated that the British prince had some complaints about the officials in his heart, but he couldn't say it as a courtier. ,

"It's really a bit too much. Shen Congxing didn't do it on purpose. I once heard Gu Er say that he missed his dead wife, so he was a little too fond of his wife and sister, but now it seems..." After finishing speaking, he shook his head, expressing Not optimistic about these two!
"By the way, Ming girl asked someone to tell you something today. It seems that his family will hold a banquet in two days. It seems that it is because of the merger of the mansion. Let our family go!"

Yuan Wenshao nodded to express his understanding.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Gu Tingye joined the mansion for a banquet, and Shen Congxing even brought his concubine Xiao Zou to attend, which surprised everyone. You must know that this kind of official banquet must be attended by the official wife. Yuan Wenshao is not clear about the situation in the backyard. Gossip and gossip are also inevitable, except for the generals from Yuzhou in the front yard, other people look at Shen Congxing with a bit of contempt, and even Gu Tingye is a little embarrassed, who makes people at both ends of him have friendship? It was Pao Ze, and the capital also inherited Gu Yankai's relationship.

In the middle of the journey, it seemed that the backyard was very troubled. Gu Tingye and Shen Congxing left the table and went to the backyard. After waiting for a while to hear what happened, Zhang Weizhong, the little father-in-law of the British government, was furious and slapped the table. They led the crowd to leave the banquet, and all the noble generals who had made good friends with the British government also left one after another. The remaining people looked at Yuan Wenshao one after another. These people were regarded as Yuan Wenshao's subordinates or good friends. Want to see his reaction.

Now Yuan Wenshao is a little bit on the wax, it is difficult to go or not to go, he scolds Shen Congxing in his heart for being a waste of snacks, he can't even manage an inner house, thinking about it, how can he be regarded as the watch of the nobles in Beijing, if he doesn't say anything Not very good either, so he said to Wang Ben, the commander of the Fenwu Battalion:
"General Wang, I remember that you still have some official business in Daying in the western suburbs, so don't stay here, you should all go to handle official business!"

Wang Ben was usually the smartest, and immediately understood what Yuan Wenshao meant, and quickly left the banquet with a group of general friends, leaving only Yuan Wenshao here in his own name.

Now there are still some neutral people who also saw what they were doing, and they left one after another, saying that it was your banquet that caused the problem first, so they don’t blame us. It is inevitable that the hidden officials of the official family will give face to the British public who does not give the veterans of the three dynasties.

Now basically only the ordinary people in Yuzhou were left, and they started clamoring, leaving as soon as they said, pretending to be a wolf with a big tail, saying that the emperor is from Yuzhou, and so on.

Gu Tingye and Shen Congxing hurriedly stopped everyone, they were more or less sensible, especially Gu Tingye, he was very clever and knew the intention of the officials to let Shen Congxing marry the Zhang family.

After everyone in Yuzhou calmed down, Gu Tingye was full of embarrassment, and Shen Congxing came to Yuan Wenshao with the same expression,

"Brother Yuan, this..."

Yuan Wenshao interrupted Gu Tingye's words expressionlessly. He saw the scene just now, and he was extremely dissatisfied with Yuzhou's group in his heart.

"Okay, don't talk about it, Erlang and I have something else to do, so I won't stay any longer. Later, tell your big sister Hualan to let her go home after the banquet!"

After speaking, he turned around and left, regardless of Gu Tingye's shouts behind him, he was afraid that he would not be able to resist beating those people if he stayed here!
