Chapter 95 Each family’s reaction

Let’s talk about the outside world’s reaction to the morning dynasty at this time.
  Let’s talk about the Sheng family first.

After Sheng Hong hurriedly ran back to Jiying Lane,
  I went straight to the Shou'an Hall in the backyard.

Originally, Sheng Hong was planning to talk about the court affairs as soon as he entered the room.
  But when I saw Minglan playing chess with Mrs. Sheng,
  Sheng Hong couldn't speak directly and regained his composure. He first saluted Mrs. Sheng, then walked forward with a warm face, looked at the chessboard and said with a smile:

"Mom, are you playing chess with Ming'er? Let's see who loses and who wins?"

Mrs. Sheng knew Sheng Hong's son's temperament best. When she saw that he came to her Shou'an Hall without even changing into court clothes, she knew that something was wrong with Sheng Hong.
  He put the chess pieces in his hand into the flag box and said:

"Winning or losing doesn't matter, I'm just passing the time. Why, do you have something to tell me?"

"Mother, please be clear!" Sheng Hong complimented Mrs. Sheng, then glanced at Minglan, indicating that the child was inconvenienced here!

Minglan didn't need her grandmother's orders. She stood up knowingly and said with a smile:
  "Father has just gone to court and must be a little thirsty. I will go and pour a bowl of tea for father and grandmother tomorrow!"

When Sheng Hong saw this, he immediately nodded with satisfaction. After Minglan went out, he looked at Mrs. Sheng and smiled:
  "Ming'er has become really sensible under the guidance of her mother. I think she is much better than her two sisters!"

Sheng Hong was just expressing emotion for a moment and complimenting his aunt,

Mrs. Sheng didn't even bother to figure out how sincere she was and asked directly:
  "What happened, you came back in such a hurry!"

When Sheng Hong heard this, he stopped laughing, sat upright and replied:
  "Something did happen in the court today..."

After talking about what happened in the court, Yuan Hong's analysis, including his speculations,
  At the end, Sheng Hong said with some uneasiness:

"Mother, this kid Boxheng is so violent. You said I was with him that day..."

Mrs. Sheng was still thinking about the pros and cons of this, but Sheng Hong couldn't help but be speechless.

This cheap son is really a complete loser and said angrily:
  "One or two quarrels are not enough. The Wang family did not have a good sense of proportion, and that is why this disaster happened!"

"Besides, after you left that day, Hui'er also promised to let Ru'er and Ming'er go to the Hou Mansion to study together. I won't deal with you on one end and invite your daughter to the mansion on the other!"

Hearing this, Sheng Hong also felt that he was a little too frightened, so he quickly smiled to cover up his embarrassment!
  There was no pressure in his heart, and Sheng Hong's mind became smart again.

He quickly complimented:
  "Mother, this child Hui'er is indeed decisive and has greatly increased the prestige of the Hou Mansion. I think the Hou Mansion will surely reach a higher level after this battle!"

"By the way, Hui'er invited the children to come over as guests. I think we have to prepare some gifts. After all, this is the first visit on behalf of the Sheng family, so it's better to be more solemn!"

"Youyang's family gave them a set of porcelain before, and I think it's good. It's quite exquisite and generous. I'll ask the eldest lady to bring it to them later!"

Sheng Hong rambled on for a while, just thinking about how to build a good relationship with the Xu family!
  Old Mrs. Sheng felt helpless when she saw this. This kind of behavior is not even the icing on the cake, so what effect can it have!
  But she won't stop her. Although Sheng Hong's behavior may not be useful, there is no harm in it.
  "You are determined!" After confirming Sheng Hong, Mrs. Sheng began to ask Sheng Hong for some details to see if there were any omissions!
  Sheng Hong also knew that his aunt was wise and shrewd, and wanted to learn a thing or two, so he temporarily stopped talking and started discussing with Mrs. Sheng!
  ……

The Duke's Mansion of Qi State,

In the back garden,

Duke Qi and Princess Ning were admiring the flowers and discussing what happened in the morning.
  Duke Guo of Qi himself was a loyal and honest man with no ambitions. He still couldn't bear the Xu family taking action against the Wang family. He shook his head and sighed:

"Oh, after all, they are all in-laws, and there is not much hatred. Why can't we just take it! That boy from this generation of the Xu family is too cruel!"

No one thought it was Xu Yaozu's handiwork. Everyone in the same circle knew that Xu Yaozu couldn't do this without learning or skills!

Princess Pingning completely disagreed with her husband’s point of view and refuted:
  "What you said is wrong. Your Majesty should be strict and deal with things quickly! The Wang family has escaped for so many years. Now that Xu Wenhui has done something wrong, it is natural that he has to clean up. Otherwise, everyone will be as ungrateful as the Wang family, and then there will be chaos? "

"The princess is right, she is just trying to keep things simple for her husband!"

Although Qi Guogong didn't agree with what his wife said in his heart, his wife had been strict for many years and he didn't dare to refute, so he could only agree!
  Princess Pingning had become accustomed to her husband's attitude and didn't think much about it. Thinking of the current situation of the Xu family, she praised and envyed:

"The Xu family is really blessed. This generation actually has Xu Wenhui, who is capable and has means!

Even the Vietnamese government, the British government, and our relatives the Gu family are willing to cooperate! What a blessing! "

Duke Qi completely agreed with this point. As if he thought of something, he said in confusion:
  "No, it's true that good things come from evil bamboos. We all don't know who Xu Yaozu was when he was young. He was a person like Gu Er. Who would have thought that his son could be so promising!"

Princess Pingning frowned slightly when she heard what Duke Qi said about evil bamboos producing good bamboo shoots.
  Her Heng'er is so sensible. Is it because she and her husband are unworthy?

Duke Qi and Princess Ping Ning have lived together for so many years. It can be said that he knows this pillow person very well and is the most sensitive to his son's affairs.
  When he saw Princess Pingning frowning and thought about what he just said, he realized where he was wrong.
  He quickly smiled and said:
  "Of course, there are only a few good bamboo shoots from bad bamboo, and most of them are Zixiao's parents.

Look at our Heng'er! Those who went through the entire Bianjing city several times were also top-notch. When we look back, we will be named on the Heng'er Gold List.
  Who is not envious? "

Princess Pingning felt comfortable when she heard this, and her brows immediately relaxed. However, she did not agree. Instead, she thought of something and snorted coldly:
  "Although Heng'er is good, he is a bit soft-hearted and needs to be tempered!"

Qi Guogong knew what his wife was talking about as soon as he heard it. For some reason, Qi Heng has been clamoring to invite classmates from the Sheng family to visit him in the past two days.

Qi Guogong himself didn't think it mattered. It was good for classmates to keep in touch with each other.

But Princess Pingning said she didn't agree with anything. Mother and son are currently at odds.
  Thinking that his son Qi Heng asked him to reminisce about the past yesterday, Qi Guogong cautiously tried:
  "Princess, in fact, it doesn't matter if Heng'er invites a few classmates over. After all, Heng'er has been studying in the Sheng family for so many years, so he should be thanked!"
