Chapter 63

After coming down to court, Sheng Hong, Chang Bai and Qi Heng all surrounded Yuan Wenshao, and it was enough for Sheng Hong to return, Chang Bai and Qi Heng were really anxious, especially Chang Bai, Gu Tingye was not only his brother-in-law, but also his best friend My friend, after coming to Yuan Wenshao's side, he asked anxiously:

"Brother-in-law, what should I do, Zhonghuai..."

Yuan Wenshao waved his hand, his expression was a bit 'dignified', he was a bit MMP in his heart, the emperor and Gu Tingye, these bastards are acting, I have to worry about it,

"Go back to my mansion and talk, it's not a place to talk now, Minglan happens to be at my place now, let's go there together!"

Several people nodded one after another. When they arrived at the mansion, Ming Lan and Hua Lan had already got the news. Hua Lan was comforting Ming Lan. When they saw how many people came in, they quickly fought. Ming Lan looked very anxious and asked Gu Tingye Case,

"What's wrong with my Lord Hou? Why was he locked up!"

Qi Heng saw Ming Lan's question, so he rushed to answer, clattering what happened.

As soon as Minglan heard it, she defended:

"There is no actual evidence for this. The officials can't just detain my Lord Hou indiscriminately!"

Sheng Hong has always looked down on Gu Tingye, thinking that Gu Tingye is arrogant and domineering, and he also often listens to those rumors, angrily said,

"Childish, why are the officials so indiscriminate? Zhu Manniang said that we don't care whether the truth is true or not. Gu Er's death because of that bitch is known to the whole capital. He can't deny it. And that Gu Er doesn't take care of the affairs of the Bai family, so you should leave some rooms for the Bai family, and take up all of your own size, so don't blame the Bai family for dissatisfaction!" He always pays attention to being in harmony with others when he is an official, that is, Hello, hello, everyone, I really don't agree with Gu Er's behavior, you see, there are troubles after all, right?

Of course Ming Lan didn't want her father to look at her husband like that, she looked anxious, and immediately explained:
"Father, you also know about the matter of the Bai family. It was the Bai family who first expelled the old master Bai, and then sent someone to assassinate Hou Ye. That's why Hou Ye didn't want to get close to the Bai family. There is also the matter of Zhu Manniang. Lord Hou was deceived by Zhu Manniang, and he didn't want to, and he changed his ways later!"

Yuan Wenshao didn't want to listen to their chatter here, so he interrupted directly:
"Okay, okay, now is not the time to talk about this, besides, this matter is causing a lot of trouble now, and the government and the public are agitating. The officials also have to consider the impact. It may be expedient to lock Zhonghuai up first. The plan, what we have to do now is how to find evidence to overthrow the claims of those people, otherwise it will be very unfavorable to Zhonghuai, even if the officials want to protect him, it will be difficult for him to be defeated by everyone!"

Changbai nodded repeatedly when he heard the words, thinking that his brother-in-law was wise,
"That's right, what my brother-in-law said is right, but looking at the current situation, the official's attitude is the most important thing. I think it's a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, we send people to collect evidence, and on the other hand, we have to test the official's attitude." Attitude, in addition, I have to go to Zhonghuai to see if he has anything to say, after all, he is the person involved, and he must know more than us!"

After Changbai finished speaking, Qi Heng responded immediately,
"Changbai is right. As the censor, it is convenient for me to ask those people, and I will leave it to me to ask those people for questioning!"

Minglan heard the words and immediately thought that the Empress Dowager had a good relationship with her, and wanted to ask the Empress Empress to see, while Sheng Hong and Changbai went to Dali Temple and Kaifeng Mansion respectively to find out if they could find any clues.

Yuan Wenshao was planning to go to see Gu Er in the prison tomorrow, to see if he was relaxing in there.

After everyone discussed the matter, Ming Lan suddenly said to Hua Lan and Yuan Wenshao:

"Big sister, big brother-in-law, I'm going to move back to Hou's mansion. Now that Lord Hou is in trouble, I'm afraid that the Hou's mansion is not stable, so I want to go back!"

Hua Lan was very worried when he heard the words, and said worriedly:

"The current situation in your house, don't worry about what happened when you go back, and stay with me for a while longer!"

But Minglan was very firm,

"It's stormy outside. If I don't go back, the family's hearts will be scattered. Now that Master Hou is not here, I must help him guard the house!"

The rest of the people also dissuaded Minglan one after another. Minglan seemed to be determined after eating the weight. If she insisted on going back, the few people had no choice but to obey her. They just persuaded her to be more careful in her actions.

The next day, Yuan Wenshao came to the prison to see Gu Er, the little bastard. As soon as he entered the door, he saw this kid eating vegetables.

"Hey, your life is good here, kid. It's very nourishing. There's wine and food. I think the food is pretty good. It's better than my cook's. Hmm, I think this life is OK!"

Gu Tingye's spirit is still very good, pretending, of course it's fine, seeing Yuan Wenshao hurriedly greeted,

"Second brother Yuan is here, come and eat something together, this is a good arrangement for me by King Huan!"

Yuan Wenshao was also polite, sitting opposite Gu Tingye, picked up the wine glass and took a sip first, um, Yujiu, the taste is really good,
"Tell me, what are you going to do, kid? How did you get to this point based on your relationship with the royal family!"

Gu Tingye is still pretending, with a sad face,
"I'm afraid I won't be able to hide this time. The officials are jealous of King Huan now, and I am on good terms with King Huan. The officials don't trust me anymore. At the beginning, I also offended the Queen Mother because of the officials, but now I don't think so." The road can go, eldest brother-in-law, I am afraid that this time, the least is dismissed from office and seized the title, and there may be exile. I don't want to implicate Minglan and have two children. Brother-in-law, please take it out and give it to Minglan for her to sign, this is also for the sake of the child!" After finishing speaking, he poured down a glass of wine and slammed the glass on the table, looking very 'tragic'!Then he said:
"Big brother-in-law, I will trouble you and big sister to take care of Minglan and the two children for me in the future!"

Yuan Wenshao was stunned for a moment when he heard the words. Could it be that this is often shown in the legendary TV series, the elder brother went in and asked me to take care of the elder sister?
After reading a few words of Amitabha, I knew it was impossible, but I am an honest person, a responsible person, how could I do such a thing that is inferior to a beast, Dayi replied sternly:
"Don't worry, Zhong Huai, leave Minglan and your children to me!"

Gu Tingye was a little stunned when he heard the words, why did he feel that something was wrong, it sounded so awkward, but he didn't think too much, and replied gratefully:

"Thank you big brother-in-law, little brother will definitely pay you back in the future!" He stood up and saluted solemnly.

Yuan Wenshao quickly stood up too, helped Gu Tingye up, and said with a little reproach:

"Zhonghuai doesn't need to be like this, we are all a family. Besides, you are not sure about this matter. We are all looking for clues outside. There may be a turning point. You don't need to give up so early!"

Gu Tingye was very calm when he heard that,

"Second brother Yuan, I know my affairs, so you can help me bring He Lishu to Minglan!"

Yuan Wenshao looked at Gu Tingye, but didn't reach out to pick it up.

"I won't bring He Lishu to you. You know your wife too, so I guess I can agree to it! I'll go out and make arrangements for Minglan to come and see you. If you have anything to discuss, you can discuss it yourself!"

In the days that followed, things were not going well. Ming Lan handed over the post, but the palace refused to accept it at all, and the Sheng family and his son didn't find anything there.

Qi Heng got a little reward, that is, he admired his daughter-in-law, Shen Shi, and got a lot of ideas from her, but unfortunately he was a step too late, and the Bai family Saburo was already dead, and it was found that he was killed, and Zhu Manniang disappeared.

Yuan Wenshao didn't mess around, just put on a show. Anyway, he knew it was meaningless. He just arranged for Minglan to go to the prison to meet Gu Tingye. Yuan Wenshao didn't know what the two said. Anyway, he didn't hear anything later leaving news.

It may be that the emperor was a little anxious and afraid that things would repeat itself. In a few days, the emperor's imperial decree arrived, depriving Gu Tingye of the title of Marquis of Ningyuan (Ming Lan's decree was also deprived), demoted all official positions, and exiled for three thousand miles after autumn!
After the news came out, some people were happy and some were sad. Even the Grand Master Sheng Hong couldn't help sighing a few times. Although he didn't like Gu Tingye's style of dealing with people, it didn't prevent him from liking a son-in-law with a high position. Now it's good. He was imprisoned, which made him feel quite uncomfortable, and he even felt sorry for his little daughter!
