Chapter 40 Concubine

Author: Yao Jishan

How could there be such stupid people in this world!

When Da Chang'an and the two laughed knowingly, Ali was smiling on his face, but his heart was full of ridicule.

These two people only know one but not the other.

The reason why Gu De Na Dan was extremely respectful to Shu Jiu was because of his father, Mang Tai.

Shu Jiu has always been favored by Mang Tai. As the eldest son, Gu De should obey his father's wishes and treat him with courtesy.

Da Chang'an and Mengge are Gu De's subordinates, and everything they do is equivalent to Gu De's intention. However, they have just turned Gu De's usual courtesy into obsequiousness and insubordination. This is one of them.

Secondly, this incident also exposed the shortcomings of Gude's lax governance, and this was the main reason for his irritation.

A few days ago, there was a "murder case of Harqin warriors". The deceased was one of Da Changan's men, and the Sota people under Mengge were the biggest suspects.

Fortunately, Da Changan still had some brains and did not go to Munger directly, but reported the matter to Goode first.

With the wisdom of the major general, he could see at a glance that the case was a frame-up and the real culprit must be someone else. He ordered the government office to investigate the case and comforted Da Changan and Munger respectively.

After the commander-in-chief learned about this, he was very satisfied and praised his eldest son for being "young and steady." Today, during the banquet at home, the young general deliberately brought Da Chang'an and Da Chang'an with him.

Shuai knew that the situation had calmed down.

In addition, the Major General also smoothed over the incident half a year ago.

Although the leader whose daughter died was from a commoner, it was not important in itself, but his youngest son worked as a scribe in the Crown Prince's Mansion in the imperial capital, and often went in and out with His Highness the Crown Prince.

It was because of this relationship that Gu De was ruthless six months ago and personally ordered people to investigate the case. Afterwards, he was always very cold to Da Chang'an. This was not only a punishment, but also a punishment for Chang Li.

That group of people saw it.

Since that incident, Mangtai has grown more and more trustful in his eldest son. Recently, he even asked his eldest son to do important things such as checking eyeliners, obviously recognizing his ability.

If you want to maintain such trust, the Major General must demonstrate your talents at all times and not relax even a little bit.

After all, incompetence is a more fatal flaw than a minor flaw like being a yang and a yin.

Especially in the Nadan family, incompetent people are useless people and can be bullied by anyone.

Fortunately, this is Baishuang City, and there are not many masters in the house. If it were in Changli's family, I'm afraid someone would have blown the wind into Mang Tai's ears by now.

When thinking about this, Ali's eyes became filled with melancholy.

He raised his head and cast a glance in the direction of the back house from a distance.

The real princess of Baihuayuan is the one who knows how to turn a deaf ear, and her eyes are almost all over the entire back house.

But I don’t know if what happened just now will be recorded by someone who is interested, and then quietly conveyed to the Lord of the Lord?

The worry on Ali's face became more and more intense, but Da Chang'an and Mengge didn't notice it and continued to laugh wildly.

Almost at the same time, Shu Jiu, who was outside the white wall, was looking far away in the direction of the back house.

Just when he was passing by the group of maids, he suddenly felt a very unusual breath, long and light, simple and solid, and seemed to have blended into the flowers and trees in the garden.

When martial arts masters breathe out, they are all in harmony with the time, place, momentum, and energy. The more rounded and comfortable the breathing, the deeper the inner strength will be and the higher the martial arts will be.

When one's martial arts reaches a state of perfection, one's breath and breath will naturally conform to the world. At that time, even if one is right in front of one's eyes, one will not see him but not see him.

Naturally, the breath that Shu Jiu noticed was far from the transformation state, but it had reached the level of an expert, so he stopped to check.

Only later did he see Hao.

He knew that the woman named Cong was the wet nurse of Hua Zhen, the seventh girl, and Hua Zhen was Mang Tai's favorite daughter. She was also the current mistress of the Dan family and the youngest daughter of Mang Tai's first wife.

If we really talk about family background, Hua, who is a direct descendant, is really on a higher level than Gude, the eldest son who is a commoner.

These are not secrets. They are all recorded in the "Nadan Genealogy" written by Zhuangzi. Shujiu has read it carefully twice and is still impressed by it to this day.

The Nadan family, which has many wives and concubines and many children, is actually not as harmonious as it seems on the surface. Among the more than ten "anecdotes" recorded in the "Nadan Family Tree", more than half of them involve human lives.

This is quite similar to those big families in the Central Plains.

When there are more people, there are more disputes. Coupled with the immediate benefits and the reputation behind the scenes, intrigues and intrigues will become more and more frequent.

After seeing clearly that those maids were from Baihuayuan, Shujiu stopped paying attention.

Now Baishuang City is at a critical juncture, and Mangtai is the person chosen by Dazhuangtou himself. Shujiu doesn't care about his family's private affairs, and how his concubine and his legitimate daughter are fighting overtly and covertly, and it's not appropriate to ask too many questions.

There are many things that cannot be put on the table inside the mansion.

There is a hidden master inexplicably appearing next to Hua Zhen. How is it different from the "eyes list" that Gude Nadan presented to his father?

The former is looking for "profit", but what the latter wants is still the word "profit".

Fortunately, Mangtai was not confused. After sifting through the list of true and false, the real nails were picked out immediately, and the handling methods were decisive and thorough, and he lived up to his reputation as a military commander.

Presumably, Hua Zhen's little thoughts should be reflected in Mang Tai's eyes.

However, when the time is right, you still have to remind Mang Tai to avoid missing important events.

Shujiu quickly made a plan. He heard the sound of shouting and drinking coming from the wall, and the aroma of wine wafted into his nose. He knew that the banquet had begun, so he closed his eyes, adjusted his breath, and waited quietly for the banquet to disperse.

The meal lasted until dusk.

Having settled a major matter on his mind, Mangtai was in a good mood. He was very drunk and was helped by Gu De to rest.

Da Chang'an and others were also extremely drunk. When the banquet ended, they could not stand up and were carried out of the courtyard one by one.

Wang Kuang didn't feel much drunk.

He has always had a heavy drinker and has almost never been drunk in his life. When he walked out of the small courtyard at this moment, his appearance was smooth and his steps were calm. There was only a hint of sadness between his eyebrows, which lingered even in the gentle east wind.

"Ajiu." When he reached a corner outside the courtyard, he called in a low voice.

Shu Jiu appeared in front of him silently.

After being on duty for nearly three hours, Shujiu's gray robe was still spotless, as if he had just come out of the study room filled with the fragrance of ink, instead of being outside in the wind for a long time.

"These golden men are really good at drinking." It wasn't until he saw him that Wang Kuang finally felt a little drunken in his eyes.

He was actually a little drunk.
