Chapter 166

Guard Qin worked for the Zheng family and worked for Zheng Yunshu in the past years, and he had a lot of lives on his hands. According to his confession, Xiao Yunzhi learned that Zheng Lian would ask for leave from time to time every year to fast and pray for his dead wife, but in fact he was not around at all during that time. House.

Although he still doesn't know where he went, but he insists on concealing something, there must be a ghost. Following this line of investigation, Xiao Yunzhi believes that Zheng Lian's pigtail will always be caught.

After this incident, the staff of the Ministry of Criminal Justice also went through a big cleaning. The fifth prince didn't know that the nail he had planted in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice had been uprooted by Xiao Yunzhi and replaced.

In the past few days, many powerful families in the capital have received invitations from the fifth prince, saying that the golden autumn has come, and the fifth prince and concubine invited everyone to visit the house to enjoy the flowers.

The Fifth Prince's concubine is suffering from physical discomfort all the year round. When she is recuperating in the mansion, she likes to plant flowers and raise fish to cultivate her mind and nature.

Over the years, the fifth prince's mansion would send out such flower appreciation invitations during the blooming season, so everyone didn't find it strange.

But Xiao Yunzhi felt very unhappy, because the fifth prince casually said something when he was invited, why not bring that Cheng Liangdi from the house along with him.

But anyone who pays too much attention to Jinxiu is not a good thing.

Xiao Yunming counts as one, and Huo Jinhe counts as one.

I don't know if it was because he felt that the fifth prince was plotting against his sister. Huo Jinhe hadn't come to Yuanpenglou for several days. Xiao Yunzhi was very pleased about this, and sincerely hoped that he would never come again.

The five princes and concubines not only invited the ladies who have not left the court, but also the concubines and concubines in the backyard of the princes.

Therefore, during this period of time, the business of the cosmetics shop and silk and satin shop in the capital is very good.

The women in the backyard had nothing to do. Apart from competing for beauty and arguing for favor, the rest of their lives were very boring. For them, such a huge flower viewing feast was almost a pleasant spring outing.

And those innocent young girls are gearing up with anticipation, intending to show off, but also put their own life-long events on the agenda.

Every household is busy sorting out the list of characters, but Jinxiu and Xiao Yunzhi are studying the list of guests invited by the Fifth Prince.

The fifth prince is very good at winning people's hearts, but he has listed all the people who are helpful to him in winning the heirloom, especially those ladies who have not engaged in marriage, one counts as one, and he invites them all.

"The drunken man's intention is not to drink, but others to enjoy the flowers. The fifth child is a flower-appreciating girl."

"Good guy, this guy already has more than [-] wives?"

"I haven't become the emperor yet, but I should prepare the harem first."

"He can even take advantage of his wife's illness, and he really has all the tricks!"

Jinxiu once again gave this person an evaluation of deep scheming, deep city, and zero integrity. She was complaining, and she paused with her fingertips, and stopped on one of the names in the list——Huo Jinyi.

Xiao Yunzhi originally didn't want Jinxiu to go to the Hongmen Banquet, but she said: "Occasionally when I'm free, I should go and walk through the plot, otherwise the original text will be almost forgotten by me, and I will remember it only when the matter is near."

When I first read the novel, I didn't have a deep impression of many plots. Except for a few main plots, I don't remember many sub-plots.

"If I remember correctly, the fifth brother successfully bonded with the Huo family at this flower viewing banquet, and the means he used were very disgraceful."

Xiao Yunzhi was still not happy: "Why does Madam need to do this kind of trivial matter by herself, and leave it to Xiao Xiao to solve it?"

Jinxiu poked him on the forehead: "The male and female guests have to be separated, can you notice Huo Jinyi?"

"Besides, I'm not only here for this matter."

She asked Xiao Yunzhi: "That old man from the Sun family is so treacherous and cunning, do you think that if her other daughter becomes the fifth concubine, will he follow you wholeheartedly?"

Xiao Yunzhi touched his chin: "It's really hard to say."

That was also unethical.

Recently, that old fellow Sun Shangming seemed to be content with himself and was sincere. In fact, those who helped Xiao Yunzhi to put people in the Ministry of War were second- and third-rate positions, and the positions where he could really get in touch with the core of the Ministry of War were still well hidden.

On the surface, he said that Master Shang Shu was in charge of those vacancies, and he was not good at surpassing them, but in fact...
