Si Yiluo stood up for Shen Moran, and Bo Wanping didn't look good. Mrs. Bo defended her, saying, "It's just a quarrel at the youngest daughter's house, and what's more, this Miss Cui's words are not wrong."
Prime Minister Shen and Mr. Boge have always been at odds with each other, so everyone in the family can guess what the emperor meant when they went to court this morning.
The princes are about to choose their concubines. The three ladies of the uncle's family are all legitimate ladies. Only Shen Moran in the prime minister's house is a legitimate daughter. No matter how you look at it, the uncle's family has a greater chance of winning.
If they can take the opportunity to step on Shen Moran's feet, their family will have greater chances of winning.
Mrs. Bo believed that she was from a famous family, and Bo An was a top-notch pavilion elder, so naturally she did not take Si Yiluo seriously.
The reason why she appeared here today was, firstly, her husband told her not to offend Si Yiluo before leaving, secondly, she wanted to support her descendants, and thirdly, she also wanted to see what kind of woman could do the job. Commander of the Imperial Guard!
The little girl is indeed cruel and ruthless. She accused the other party of collaborating with the enemy in just a few words. If a person is imprisoned, will he still have a way to survive?
She despises this kind of insidious behavior the most!
Si Yiluo looked at her and smiled.
"Mrs. Uncle, this official is also a young woman, so can I speak freely?"
"Then I said that the Ji family of Jinan Prefecture seized people's fields, robbed people's girls and forced girls into prostitution. Do others believe it or not?"
"I said that Mr. Bo Ge was corrupt, accepted bribes, and bought and sold positions. Do others believe it?"
Ji's heart suddenly flashed. She was the only one who knew that what Si Yiluo said in a joking tone was the truth. Her natal family had indeed occupied a lot of people's land in Jinan Mansion, and her nephew had been raped a few years ago. Here comes the matter of robbery.
If there was no corruption or bribery... Mrs. Ji looked at Bo Wanping. The clothes she was wearing today, the scarf on her head, and the collar around her neck, none of them were priceless!
The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty stipulate that if officials do not compete with the people for profit, those who are officials can only be officials and are not allowed to do business. With the salary of the elder, it is good for the family to have enough to eat. Where can I have spare money to buy things? These!
But these are nothing, everyone is like this...
But if the comparison is real, who can withstand the investigation?
Mr. Ji panicked.
Si Yiluo changed the subject.
"As a human being, whether you are a man or a woman, you should be responsible for what you say. As an official of the imperial court, you cannot slander Mr. Bo Ge with empty teeth. What do you think, Mrs. Bo?"
Seeing how powerful it was, Mrs. Ji squeezed out a smile on her face.
"I have learned a lesson."
In just a few words of exchange, Si Yiluo made the proud and arrogant old lady Ge suffer a loss. All the ladies below him are human beings. Who dares to think of contempt?
Mrs. Cui and Miss Cui were even more frightened.
Si Yiluo picked up the tea cup and said: "I am not an indiscriminate person, but anyone who wants to bully me in my territory should first weigh how many kilograms his own bones weigh before doing so."
After serving tea to see off the guests, Ji stood up first and said, "It's getting late, Mr. Si, so we'll leave first."
Wan also stood up and left.
"I'm going to see off the two ladies." Shen Moran said to Si Yiluo, and said to the two of them with a smile on his face, "I was supposed to keep the ladies for dinner, but as you can see, the conditions in the house are simple. , please forgive me for any rudeness."
"In this case, we also resigned!"
"It's causing trouble for Mr. Si."
Si Yiluo sat on the chair and did not move. Shen Moran greeted the people and sent them out of the house. When he came back, he saw Mrs. Cui and Miss Cui still kneeling on the ground. He was surprised.
"Are you two planning to have dinner at Mr. Si's house?"
Only then did Mrs. Cui come back to her senses.
"Thank you, Mr. Si, Miss Xie Shen! Tingting, let's go home!"
Mrs. Cui was paralyzed, but she still had the strength to get up from the ground. Cui Tingting was pulled and pulled by Mrs. Cui and couldn't get up. She was really frightened.
The two of them stumbled out of the door with the help of the maid.
Shen Moran sighed: "Si Yiluo, now you have offended all the ladies in the capital."
Si Yiluo didn't care much.
"If you offend, you will be offended. In the face of absolute power, what do the methods of the back house mean? I have the leverage of their family, who dares to risk the family?"
"Besides, if you are wronged here, doesn't it make me look incompetent?"
"It's a good idea to take this opportunity to give these ladies and ladies a hard time, lest they come to me one by one in the future and cause trouble."
Shen Moran sat down next to her.
"They don't dare to make trouble for you anymore. They will probably secretly think about how to punish me from now on!"
Although she said this, there was no fear on her face, instead she was full of excitement.
"Everyone knows today that you are the one I am protecting. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I will vent your anger on your behalf."
"No, I still want to sharpen the knife. If the knife is not sharpened, it will become a dull knife. How can I kill people then?"
"Mr. Shen and Shen Mingshu are in ruins. It's pointless to fight with them."
Si Yiluo said unceremoniously: "You just underestimated the enemy and that's why you did what happened at Jingshan Temple."
Facing Si Yiluo's trouble, Shen Moran said coquettishly: "Oh, don't I feel that I am favored by God and can't die..."
Si Yiluo shook his skin and asked, "Is lunch ready in the kitchen?"
Shen Moran had a full stomach of tea and snacks, but he wasn't hungry.
"You also saw the battle this morning. I don't have time to prepare lunch. Let's go out to eat. Your treat."
Si Yiluo doesn't have any objections to where to eat or what to eat, as long as he's full.
"Wait while I change my clothes."
Shen Moran stopped him and said, "No, you look good in this outfit. Let's set off now to explore Chunlou!"
The Sacred Heart Lake is located in the center of Shengjing City. The water in the lake is drawn from the moat outside the city. The rockery flowing water in the back houses of the imperial city is also fed by the water from the Sacred Heart Lake.
There are many restaurants by the lake, including Qinlou and Chuguan.
Tanchun Tower is located on the shore of Sacred Heart Lake.
But it was noon at this time, and most of the people who came to the Sacred Heart Lake came to eat.
"Sir, our private room in Tanchun Building must be reserved in advance..."
Si Yiluo took out the Jinyiwei Waist Card. He immediately suppressed the boy's words and the shopkeeper hurriedly came to greet him.
"There is a private room upstairs, please, two girls, please come upstairs!"
It took the young man a while to come back to his senses. I heard that the new commander of Jinyiwei is a woman, dear, the one just now is so beautiful!
"Shopkeeper, prepare a private room for our governor!"
Another group of people appeared at the door of Tanchun Tower, and the little eunuch's high-pitched voice made the shopkeeper's scalp numb.
"Governor Wei is also here, and the shop is in full bloom, but there is only one private room left..."
"Then take us there!"
The little eunuch was arrogant. The shopkeeper looked back at Si Yiluo and had the courage to call out to the little eunuch who was speaking.
"Father, this last private room has been given to the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Mr. Si. Look..."
The little eunuch glared so hard that the shopkeeper broke into a cold sweat.
"You mean you won't take business from our Dongchang?"
"The villain dare not!"
As he was talking, another familiar voice came from outside the door.
"Is the private room ready?"
Si Hai came in from the outside and saw the shopkeeper looking embarrassed. He turned sideways and looked at the little eunuch who was speaking.
"What's wrong?"
Wei Heyan crossed the threshold with his long legs, and the little eunuch said hurriedly: "Master, this servant came to book a private room, but the shopkeeper said that the last room was given to Mr. Jin Yiwei Si. He obviously doesn't take us seriously!"
"Oh, is it so?"
Wei Heyan raised his eyes and saw Si Yiluo standing on the wooden stairs, his eyes flashed with surprise.
Si Yiluo was also looking at him, thinking what a coincidence that he could meet him while having a meal.
If the dispute between the two of them is placed in the private room, it becomes a battle between Jinyiwei and Dongxichang.
It was easy to talk about anything in private, but right now Si Yiluo couldn't give in.
As soon as she retreated, she turned into Jin Yiwei and bowed to Dongxi Factory. The brothers of Jin Yiwei didn't want to see this result, and Emperor Yao didn't want to see it even more.
"First come, first served. Governor Wei has a distinguished status. Don't embarrass the store."
Si Yiluo turned around and faced him.
Wei Heyan was blocking the door. People outside didn't dare to come in, and people inside didn't dare to go out. It was dinner time at this time, and there were many people watching the excitement.
