Guo Niansheng was startled, and the corners of his eyes suddenly jumped a few times.
"You are saying that Li Shanchang deliberately made this suggestion because he thought Liu Bowen would not agree?"
"What do you think?"
Guo Niansheng was silent for a long time and said slowly: "This matter is indeed a bit strange. Brother Chen also discussed it with me. He seemed very surprised that Liu Bowen agreed to this matter."
Cai Heng continued: "If Mr. Liu does not agree, how do you think things will develop?"
Guo Niansheng shuddered: "Then Liu Bowen will be in big trouble!"
Cai Heng nodded: "Mr. Liu must have understood Li Shangshu's thoughts, so he changed his normal attitude and agreed to this matter. However, after this incident, he will definitely not give up!"
Guo Niansheng glanced at him and said, "So Liu Bowen thought you were involved in this matter and started to attack you?"
Cai Heng smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Liu may think there is a reason for helping Li Shangshu."
Guo Niansheng understood immediately.
Mrs. Guo was stunned, and after a long while, she said: "So he wants to take revenge on Cheng Yuefu?"
Mulun hesitated for a moment and looked at his wife and son.
I ordered you to go up and ask the Master to move our salutations away.
Mulun looked less haggard and said: "Son, you will discuss your matter later. Is he still bad outside? If you come to him, will it not hinder him?"
Li Shan Changfu bowed and left with the housekeeper, while Cheng Yuefu stayed behind to accompany the seven of them.
Mrs. Guo smiled and said: "If that were not the case, why did you bring him to the study? Mr. Li, what happened that time is over. You hope that nothing like this will happen again!"
The Cai family agreed and left slowly.
When Li Shanchang learned the reason why his father left when he was a child, his expression became extremely solemn.
Zhang Yangquan raised his hand and said: "It's a courtesy. You just happened to be out of the palace for a walk. I heard that he is holding a banquet tonight, so come over and have a look. Let's sit down and talk."
Mulun's face turned pale and he said in a trembling voice: "Well, let's forget it. I heard that this Han emperor was cruel and tyrannical and hated the Mongols. I'm afraid if you say something bad, I'll kill you!"
"Father must be worried. Everything is going well with the man. He is missing them. Is there any problem?" Li Shanchang said with a smile.
At that moment, the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion suddenly ran over slowly and said, "Master, Madam, there are some Mongolians coming in and they want to see Madam."
"Yes, the leader is an old man. I said if you go out and see me, you will know who I am."
Li Shangshu's purpose in framing Cheng Yuefu was probably not just to dislike Guo Niansheng, but also to hope to overthrow Guo Niansheng and replace him.
The visitors are clearly members of Li Shanchang’s family in Xiaodu, and the old man in the middle is not your father, Mulun.
Mrs. Guo responded with a smile and ordered some stools to be brought in to chat with Zhang Yangquan and his wife.
Li Shanchang walked around the chapel and came all the way to the main entrance. When he looked inside, he was surprised and happy.
Li Shangshu said: "Do you still remember that when Your Majesty first held the imperial examination, you won the first place?"
"Why is that?"
"Father, mother, eighth brother, why are they here?"
Mr. Cai bowed his head and said: "Now that you, Cai Heng, are being targeted by the Procuratorate, please ask Mr. Guo to save you!"
When Li Shangshu saw my expression, he knew that Hu Weiyong had guessed everything, so he kept hiding it.
Zhang Yangquan said with a smile: "Since there are no guests coming, Cheng Yuefu will go and greet the guests. The seven of you will wait here." He sat back and obviously became interested in these Mongolians.
Zhang Yangquan nodded and was about to leave.
After chatting for a while, it was getting late. Zhang Yangquan stood up and said: "It's already early. He should go back to accompany his guests. You guys have returned to the palace."
Mrs. Guo waved to Li Shangshu, left the small hall again, and waited on the front porch.
Li Shangshu seems to really like Cheng Yuefu. As long as he mentions Guo Niansheng, many people will have nothing bad to say.
When she returned to the living room, the small hall was still crowded. As soon as Mrs. Guo left the room, she looked at Li Shangshu. By chance, Li Shangshu also looked over, and the two met their eyes.
Mrs. Guo said blankly: "Of course I remember!"
However, after all, I recommended Li Shangshu to Zhang Yangquan, and the personal relationship between the two was also wrong. Cheng Yuefu did not contribute much to the title of Duke that time.
After Mrs. Guo slowly stepped down, she cupped her hands and said, "My lord, Mrs. Guo, pay homage to Your Majesty and pay homage to the Empress."
As the saying goes, when people go to lower places, water flows to higher places.
Li Shanchang saw that his family had suffered a lot of hardships along the way, so he said: "It's not bad."
Li Shanchang held his mother's hand and said with a smile: "Don't listen to the nonsense of Batu, you are the one who asked Your Majesty to let me retreat to the military camp. It's not windy inside, so let's retreat and talk."
"Mr. Liu, doesn't he have anything to say to the truth?"
Cheng Yuefu waved his hand and said: "It's broken. Let him go back. You have to stay alone for a while."
Cheng Yuefu took a deep breath and said, "I dare not hide anything from you. It's true."
"It's wrong. You hate me, but you're looking down on me! Cheng Yuefu thinks of himself as humble, as if I am the only person in the world who is loyal, courageous, upright and upright, and everyone else is greedy!"
Mrs. Guo stood up quickly and said, "I will escort Your Majesty and Your Majesty out."
Guo Niansheng thought for a while and suddenly said: "Is it possible that you are overthinking it? Li Shangshu always gets along well with his colleagues, how could he deliberately try to frame Liu Xiang?"
"Yes!" Mrs. Guo stared at me: "The question is, did he really do that?"
Li Shan couldn't help but smile: "Who did he listen to? Your Majesty is much weaker than Tuo Huan. If you bring them to see me, you will naturally know."
Mrs. Guo is really willing to put Li Shangshu into despair because of this incident.
Before retreating to the mansion, Li Shanchang and his parents asked each other about each other's situation.
"Father, Your Majesty is also in the mansion. It's a matter of great importance. Please take him to see me and let him tell me the situation in Xiaodu!"
Mrs. Guo thought about it silently, and suddenly she was startled.
Cheng Yuefu sighed and said: "Mr. Li, since he is so frank with you, you also speak frankly! You appreciate his ability, and he also helped you a little, so you plan to Tell your Majesty about this."
"It's bad. I have told En Xiang all my thoughts in my heart. Please take you to see His Majesty!"
Cheng Yuefu glanced at me and said, "Come as you wish." He walked towards the west study room.
"I'm here in my regular clothes. I'm talking to my aunt in the front house!"
Mrs. Guo was startled and asked slowly: "Where are we?"
Cheng Yue said: "The owner of the venue has gone to Jeju Island, and even if you haven't left, I can still find you."
Mrs. Guo held her robe and ran slowly towards the front house.
Li Shanchang was surprised and said: "Didn't you tell me your name?"
"My son, let his mother and eighth brother rest first. Why don't you accompany him to see His Majesty?"
While walking, I suddenly saw Guo Huan running from the corridor.
"I would like to ask, did the Cai family just tell Enxiang that you deliberately framed Guo Niansheng?"
"At that time, His Majesty invited you to serve as an official in Jiangdu Mansion. In fact, you really wanted to agree, and you were willing to bear the name of justice, so you didn't agree immediately."
Logically speaking, that incident must have been exposed, and Li Shangshu was probably guaranteed his official position.
Instruct a maid next to you to take your mother and younger brother to the West Cross Courtyard to rest.
Mrs. Guo suddenly said: "By the way, I heard that his relationship with the venue owner was wrong. Why did he come to you instead of looking for you?"
Li Shangshu smiled bitterly and said: "I was harmed by you, how could you come to trouble me again? File a complaint in court!"
However, Cheng Yue is willing to take risks. After all, if Li Shangshu survives, he will definitely take revenge on Cai Heng.
Li Shangshu nodded repeatedly and said: "I promise you, you will never plot against me again in the future!"
After a while, Cheng Yuefu walked out of the house.
The Cai family sighed: "With the owner's temper, he will definitely go to Mr. Liu to settle the accounts. I'm afraid that Mr. Liu will settle the accounts on you, Cai Heng."
Mrs. Guo was stunned for a moment because she admired the Cai family's steady handling of things.
"Forget it, you will help him explain that matter to Liu Xiang. It is a matter of Cheng Yuefu and Liu Xiang fighting. You must tell others!"
"Why would he do this!"
Before arriving at the study, Mrs. Guo ordered people to stand within ten steps of the small door to allow no one to approach the study. Then she looked at Li Shangshu with a solemn face.
"Uncle, Your Majesty and the Queen are here!"
The Cai family was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister Guo. I will definitely mention this matter to my superiors again!"
Mrs. Guo clasped her hands behind her hands and watched the spring water flowing up from the lower part of the rockery, and suddenly she felt no sigh in her heart.
Li Shanchang's mother is a strong Mongolian woman. You said solemnly: "You heard that Batu was exiled. Is it true?"
After passing through the hanging flower gate, I came to a pavilion in the front house. I saw Zhang Yangquan and Qin Lingjun sitting at the stone table, and Li Shanchang was talking to them.
Li Shangshu said in surprise: "Seriously?"
As soon as Mrs. Guo walked over, she heard Li Shanchang say: "Judging from the time, Guanyin Nu should not have arrived in Xiaodu yet, so the seven of you must be worried."
Cai Hengdao: "Mr. Prime Minister, you might as well recall what Li Shangshu's attitude was towards Mr. Liu when he got along with him?"
Cheng Yuefu secretly thought: "Could it be some elder from Xiaodu?" He looked at Zhang Yangquan.
Liu Bowen suspected that Cai Heng and Li Shanchang were colluding with each other, and they were certain that officials and businessmen were colluding, so he investigated the Cai family.
So I would rather let myself come forward to help me get out of this matter, and both sides will be offended.
"It must be true as he said," Cheng Yuefu said solemnly: "This problem lies with Li Shangshu. Who would have thought that I would use such despicable means to deal with my colleagues!"
"Originally, you wanted to wait for His Majesty's invitation again and then pretend to be in trouble and agree, but Guo Niansheng saw through the idea and stopped you! You must have joined the Jiangdu Army at that time. On the day when the Duke was enfeoffed, you may not have a place in the top!
”
Seeing that the matter was successfully resolved, Mrs. Guo breathed a sigh of relief. Before taking a sip of tea, she came out of the study, hummed a big song, paced squarely, and hurried towards the small hall.
"This is bad, let him go. By the way, the Cai family dared to offend both of them and put them in a dilemma, so he came to you. He wants to embarrass me again."
Cai Heng touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "I asked the venue owner to find Li Shangshu in the first place because I really wanted to befriend him. However, I never imagined that I would be involved in the fight between him and Mr. Liu!"
