Chapter 75: The Old Lady of the Ruined Hou Mansion (9)

"It's okay, my legs are just broken!

Ask a doctor to help him with bone training. He will not be allowed to leave the palace in the future. I will notify the whole palace after this incident, and you cannot let him go.

Butler Min, stay here and tell me the specific matters, spread them out and explained them carefully. I don’t want to see the head of the mansion, but the butler is all confused."

Qiaomu gave another order, sighed with some disappointment, and waved his sleeves and left.

In this capital, a leader can be short of money or ambition, but he must be politically sensitive, and even more sophisticated and delicate heart that can see through the world. Without these two things, it is difficult to continue the family.

Don't want to see through people's hearts and understand the world, but at least you have to understand what can be done, what can't be done, what news can be leaked, and what news can't be leaked. If you don't have this consciousness, any turmoil in the court or the battle for the throne may fall into a doomed place. If you have the ability, then find a way to fight for it. If you know that you don't have the ability, then just keep your back and be a transparent person and don't show off.&1t;i>&1t;/i>

This is the way to deal with the world for a long time.

After Qiao Mu left, Butler Min waved away the waiters around him, half-squatted, and carefully explained the most serious consequences that might be caused by the incident and the far-reaching impact of the next few years to Wen Qilian and his wife who were lying and squatting.

Wen Qilian and his wife were not stupid either, but they didn't think so much for a while. After hearing Butler Min broke the matter and explained it clearly, they were shocked and sweated. Wen Qilian even shivered.

"You mean that the country is short of money. There are already floods in the south this year. It is very likely that there will be no pellets. Then the tax will be very small. In order to raise enough money to provide disaster relief, the emperor may think of other ways to look back. Our family is now in such a limelight, but it may become a target, right?"

Wen Qilian was sore all over his body and his brain was indeed not as good as others. At this time, he was just a little nervous, but he didn't understand the deeper situation. However, before he got married, Xiao was also a noble girl from a noble family. He was influenced by the family, studied many books, saw many things, and even read a lot of historical books, so he quickly figured it out.&1t;i>&1t;/i>

After thinking it through, you will understand the difficulties of the current situation.

The emperor is short of money, and now rumors of their family being rich are circulating in the capital. What should their family do when the natural disaster is determined in the future? Donating money may make other nobles dissatisfied. If they don’t donate money, what would the emperor think?

It should be a dilemma.

Thinking of this, Xiao couldn't help but turn his head and glar at Wen Qilian with some annoyance. The news of how much money the other person can share can spread, but the concubine's son has too little division and thought that the legitimate mother's property was unfair to divide the property. However, their mother is kind and has given special preferential treatment when dividing the property, but she never thought that she was stabbed in the back by her own son. No wonder she was so angry just now.

Wen Qilian no longer dared to speak at this time.

His mother beat him, and his wife glared at him again. Although he couldn't figure out the reason, he didn't dare to ask.&1t;i>&1t;/i>

I can only hold it in.

"Forget it, now that things have come to this point, I can only deal with it by chance. Be more low-key during this period.

Butler Min, I’m sorry to ask for a doctor.”

Although Xiao understood it, she was not the one who could control this matter. She could only sigh and help her husband treat her legs first.

Butler Min naturally retreated.

Immediately afterwards, the entire Xuanhehou Mansion was strictly controlled by Qiao Mu, and no news in the mansion was allowed to spread, and the rest were as usual.

Then in the afternoon, the illegitimate sons who were distributed the first two days began to help clear the rumors, saying that they did not get 20,000 taels of cash as rumored, but that all the assets were about 20,000 taels, saying that they were kind-hearted and distributed to them by far 30%, so they had so many assets.&1t;i>&1t;/i>

Although they failed to completely suppress the rumors that their family's treasury had millions of cash, it did play a role. At least the social circle of the dozen or more concubines was considered to be a refutation of the rumors. After a while, they should be able to continue to spread from the social circle of the dozen or more concubines to increase the scope of the refutation of the rumors.

The next few days, the transition was smooth, and the news was neither good nor bad. It was not until the fifth day that Minhou beat the drum and sued his second brother's wife, which diverted the attention of the people in the capital and was in an uproar.

At this time, Minhou had been taken by the imperial guards to the imperial court for questioning, while the nobles and the people in the capital who were watching the fun were reunited in several teahouses beside Dengwengu and Dengwengugu, and they were all gossiping.

In Wangchun Tower

The familiar nobleman was discussing the matter with a smile.

"There are so many things happening recently. Haven't Ning Jinzhong been cowardly in the past? He was suppressed by his stepmother for more than ten years and has succeeded to the throne and has been suppressed. Why do you suddenly dare to resist?&1t;i>&1t;/i>

Did it keep hidden in the past?”

Prince Anguo said with a chuckling.

"What you said, even if he found his stepmother's fault, he would not be able to sue him directly. After all, suing his parents, he would have to hit the thirty-stop first, and the same goes for the second wife.

With his body, if he had thirty slabs, most of his life would be gone. Maybe he might die on the spot. How dare he? Now he finally found his second brother's wife's fatal crime, so he had the courage to sue.

To be honest, I want to visit the old lady of Minhou Mansion now. I want to see what her face looks like now. I must be very exciting and nervous when I think about it, hahahahaha!"

The Duke of Jin waved his hand and laughed and replied.

The nobles here are all born to legitimate wives. Not only do they hate the concubine's sons, but they also dislike the stepchildren born to the second wife. Therefore, it is normal for some gloating at this time.

"I really want to see what you said, why don't we go and visit Ning Shishou now?"

The so-called Ning Shishou naturally refers to the second master of the Minhou Mansion, that is, the step brother. Even if their group wants to visit the Minhou Mansion, they cannot visit other people's wife or old ladies. They can only visit the male owner of the Minhou Mansion. When Minhou is complaining, they can only find his step brother.

After someone made such an initiative, the remaining princes became interested. Anyway, they were either from the Dukes or from the Wanghou family, so they were not afraid of anything when they were busy, so they all responded immediately and soon went to the Minhou Mansion together.

These top nobles have the courage to watch the fun without fear of trouble, while other ordinary nobles and ordinary people have no courage to watch the fun in person. Therefore, they just gather around and discuss with each other, communicating the little information they know. By the way, they sit here and wait to see how the judgment will be made in the court?

After all, this excitement is rare.
