Empress Dowager Guide

Chapter 144
Guo Song then nodded with some reassurance, turned to Sheng Shaoqing and said, "I still have to remind Madam that Wang Xiangzheng is most afraid of others mentioning his past affairs. Since Madam is asking for help from others, he should be more careful." .”

In the early morning of the second day, Sheng Shaoqing was awakened by the noise downstairs, and was about to turn over and continue to sleep, when Cui Yun whispered in her ear, "It's Wang Yuan who is here."

"The prime minister has stopped him at the door, but he still wants to see you."

"So fast?"

Sheng Shaoqing sat up "teng", put on his coat under Cui Yun's helpless eyes, and then slowly moved to the bedside, muttering while putting on his shoes, "I came here early in the morning to show off my might. I thought he was the emperor."

Lian Qiao, who was fetching water, suddenly laughed, "My servant thinks that there are many capable people here. In the front, there is an inn that can make the queen mother full of praise, and in the back, there is a township that can make the queen get up early in the morning." ..."

Sheng Shaoqing rolled her eyes at Forsythia, "I don't know where they all come from!"

Lian Qiao sticks out her tongue, the queen mother who gets up early is not easy to mess with, it's better that she is not poor-tongued.

Sheng Shaoqing yawned and walked downstairs. After standing still at the stairs, as if he had just discovered the huge crowd in the store, he turned his head in surprise and asked Bai Qing, "Shopkeeper, what's going on in your store today?" Is it? Why is it so lively?"

Bai Qing looked at Sheng Shaoqing with a black face, what activities he could have was not all because of her...

"You... are Madam Yuan?"

Sheng Shaoqing looked along the source of the sound, a thin middle-aged man walked out from the center of the crowd, stood in front of her, and looked her up and down inadvertently.

"Uncle! It's her! She was the one who humiliated me yesterday! She dared to say that she is my aunt's aunt, and where did my aunt come from? She is clearly insulting my uncle!"

Wang Yuan raised his hand to make the noisy nephew shut up, looked at Sheng Shaoqing hesitantly and said, "You... are you really the daughter of grandfather He Jiatang?"

Ji Wenxuan returned to Sheng Shaoqing's back from behind Wang Yuan, whispered a few words to Sheng Shaoqing, and Sheng Shaoqing nodded with a relaxed expression.

"How can it be fake?"

"At the beginning, the He family was implicated and fell into ruin. Even the servant didn't care. She lost the young master of the He family, that is, my father."

"After my father got lost, he wandered all the way to the capital. Fortunately, he was taken in by a good family in the capital. That's how he survived. Otherwise, how could I be there?"

"Can………"

Sheng Shaoqing stared into Wang Yuan's eyes and smiled, "Don't you want to ask, if my father survived, why didn't you get any news?"

"Did you also forget the real reason for the decline of the He family at that time?"

Wang Yuan was completely silent. He suddenly remembered that his wife had told him that the real reason for the disaster of the He family was not incompetence, but...

Looking at his expression, Sheng Shaoqing knew that he had already believed [-]% of his beliefs, and then added embellishments, "At the beginning, the He family was in Chenliuna. It was a family that could be called the same as the Wang family. If it weren't for some unexpected situation, the He family fell overnight. The marriage of this niece may not be your turn."

Guo Song listened nervously for a while, didn't he remind his wife yesterday not to mention the past, why didn't he say a few words, everything was from the past?
Sure enough, a flash of anger flashed across Wang Yuan's expression, he just wanted to open his mouth to refute, but he thought what he said was true, so how could he refute, so he closed his mouth in embarrassment.

But the nephew behind Wang Yuan is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Seeing that his uncle's momentum has been suppressed, he immediately defended his uncle and said, "What do you know?! The He family looked dilapidated at that time, if it weren't for my uncle's kindness If you marry her, you may be ruined!"

"Oh? Why didn't I know that your uncle married me out of kindness?"

A magnetic woman's voice suddenly sounded from behind Sheng Shaoqing, and everyone's eyes were drawn to it. A plump woman walked in, and Wang Yuan hurriedly greeted her, "Ma'am, why are you here?"

But she walked past him as if she hadn't seen Wang Yuan, walked up to her nephew and asked, "Ayu, what did you say? Why didn't you speak?"

The woman's tone was extremely calm, but A Yu in front of him suddenly trembled, and dodged to hide behind Wang Yuan.

Sheng Shaoqing wondered how did Wang Yuan's wife find her here?
Now that his newly impersonated "niece" has also appeared, this drama is really getting more and more interesting.

Wang Yuan came out to smooth things over and said, "Yu'er didn't mean that, don't get me wrong."

Mrs. He also turned around and stared into Wang Yuan's eyes angrily, "What does he mean by that?"

"Wang Yuan, don't forget! It was you who begged me to marry you!"

"Now that you're developed, you're going to beat me up and say that I'm cheating on you?!"

Wang Yuan looked around at the faces of the people around him, and he couldn't hold back his face. He just pulled his wife aside and patiently explained, "That's not the case! It was Yu'er who said that someone in this inn pretended to be from your He family. I just came to check , Yu'er didn't mean that, don't get me wrong!"

Mrs. He shook off Wang Yuan's arm, and said mercilessly, "Impersonating? Do you think that all the people in my He family are sycophants like you? You are a small town, who would do that?" Come to fight Qiufeng?!"

After finishing speaking, Mrs. He walked up to Sheng Shaoqing and said, "He Min met my aunt."

"However, this place is not a place to talk. The humble house has prepared refreshments. Auntie, please come with me."

Sheng Shaoqing was just excited to eat melons, but suddenly he was a little dazed when Madam He called her aunt, how did he eat melons on his own head?
"I?"

Mrs. He nodded, "Auntie, please don't dislike her."

Sheng Shaoqing still couldn't believe it, he stared at Mrs. He with wide eyes, then turned to look at Ji Wenxuan's expression, and frantically gave Ji Wenxuan winks: What's the situation? !

The version of the script discussed last night didn't have this play? ! !
How can you suddenly add drama? !
This price has to be calculated separately!

But Ji Wenxuan smiled quietly, and said silently: The incident happened suddenly, and he followed the trend.

Go with the flow?

Only then did Sheng Shaoqing go out at Madam He's invitation, but when he passed by Wang Yuan and his nephew who poked his neck out behind him to see what was going on, he was so teased by the blue and red faces of the two that he almost burst into tears. achievement.

The people in the hall did not expect such an accident, they thought they could watch a big show today, but they didn't expect it to be thunderous and rainy, meaningless at all.

"Uncle, what should we do now?"

Wang Yuan turned his head and knocked on his nephew's head, making a muffled noise, "You bastard! It's not all because of you!"

Wang Yu felt aggrieved and touched the head that had been slapped by his uncle, "How can you blame me? Then who knows what that little girl said is true?!"

"However, does my aunt really have an aunt? Still so young?"

Wang Yuan hit Wang Yu's head again, "What little girl, that's your aunt!"

Wang Yu touched the forehead that was knocked again with a helpless face, "Uncle, can't you knock in another place?"

"Don't go back with me!"

Wang Yuan glared at his nephew angrily, and hurried out to catch up with his wife's carriage.

He just chased to the door of the store, but found that there was no carriage at the door, only the butler who stopped him just now was about to board the carriage.

Wang Yuan grabbed Ji Wenxuan, "You! What are you doing? Where is my wife?"

Ji Wenxuan looked at Wang Yuandao amusedly, "Where is your wife going, what do you ask me for?"

"As for me, I naturally follow our wife. Wang Xiangzheng, if you have nothing else to do, I will rush to serve your wife, so I won't accompany you."

After speaking, Ji Wenxuan lowered the curtain and let Lin Jin set off.

Yun, who was also in the carriage, asked at this moment, "Yesterday, when I fell asleep, what happened?"

Why did he feel like the world had changed when he woke up?
Ji Wenxuan looked at Yun Zhidao with sympathetic eyes, "Too many things have happened, which one do you want to hear first?"

"I……."

Yun Zhi found that there were too many strange things today, so many that he couldn't understand a single thing now, and so many that he didn't know where to start asking.

It's a waste of time to sleep.

"Let's talk about why the Queen Mother suddenly became Mrs. He's aunt?"

"The difference in this generation is too far away?!"

Ji Wenxuan smiled knowingly, "Yesterday the queen mother falsely claimed that she was Mrs. Wang Yuan's aunt and taught Wang Yuan's nephew a lesson. Since the queen mother has already praised Haikou in front of people yesterday, it is enough to create an identity for the queen mother."

"Then He Shi really believes it?"

"Isn't the result obvious?" Ji Wenxuan was almost annoyed when he heard Yunzhi's words, and he said directly, "I also heard about the He family incident back then. That case involved a lot, but because He Madam was not involved in this line, so she managed to save her life, but when the house was ransacked, the young son of the He family accidentally disappeared, and there has been no news since then. This has become a heart disease for Madam He's grandfather, Mr. He When he passed away, he had a will, and if there is any news of the loss of the young master of the He family after a hundred years, he must pay homage to his ancestors and report it."

Yun Zhi was still puzzled, "But why does Mrs. He believe that the Queen Mother is the daughter of her grandfather? After all, at this age...it doesn't look like it at all."

Ji Wenxuan smiled complacently, "The young master was only five years old when he got lost, but Mrs. He's grandfather had already married a wife and had children at that time. If the young master waited until the young master became an adult and married and had children later, the daughter and the queen mother would be about the same age. .”

Only then did Yun Zhi understand, "It turns out that Mrs. He's father is about the same age as my uncle, so it makes sense that Mrs. He is about the same age as my aunt."

Yun Zhi lowered his head and sighed. The Queen Mother is only in her [-]th year, so it's a bit wicked for Mrs. He to recognize such an aunt.

However, this is an extraordinary time and an extraordinary means, let's see what Prime Minister Ji plans to do next.

"But we are here to investigate the falsified figures. What's the point of asking the Queen Mother to pretend to be someone else's aunt?"

Ji Wenxuan was stunned, remembering what Sheng Shaoqing said to him last night: "Only by penetrating into the enemy can we solve the problem from the source, and finally defeat the enemy with one move."

Now, Ji Wenxuan relayed this sentence to Yunzhi, and sure enough, seeing him showing a puzzled expression similar to his own last night, he closed his eyes and rested in satisfaction.

Sheng Shaoqing was not so comfortable in the carriage in front of him, and he tried his best to deal with Mrs. He's continuous questioning. If he made up a lie, he would have to use countless lies to cover it up. Now she understood this sentence deeply.

When it came to the emotional part, Madam He grabbed Sheng Shaoqing's hand with tears in her eyes and said, "Grandfather really had a lot of fate and died young. It's really hard for you."

Sheng Shaoqing just wanted to say that it is neither bitter nor bitter, but was overwhelmed by Mrs. He's tears. After a long time, she raised her head and asked, "Then how are you doing in Yuan's house now?"

Sheng Shaoqing nodded, and Mrs. He was very pleased, "Finally, one of He's daughters has a good life."

"I", Sheng Shaoqing felt more and more guilty the more he listened to it, this play can't go on!
Just when Sheng Shaoqing was about to collapse, the carriage stopped suddenly, Mrs. He got out of the car first, and asked Sheng Shaoqing to get out of the car.

Sheng Shaoqing looked up at the magnificent plaque, and thought that the Chenliu Wang family was really good, no wonder Wang Yuan wanted to change this plaque as soon as he took office.

Mrs. He wiped away her tears, and walked in to welcome Sheng Shaoqing, "The family is simple, not as rich as Yuan's, and my aunt will make do with it, so don't dislike her."

Sheng Shaoqing shook his head again and again and said, "No, no, what a grand plaque you have!"

Mrs. He's expression turned ugly when she heard the plaque, she immediately suppressed her disgust, and added, "Isn't it just a signboard, so there's something about it."

"That's different! I heard earlier that my niece and son-in-law are from the Wang family. When I saw him today, he really lived up to his reputation. He is that nephew."

"I saw him bullying the innkeeper yesterday. I couldn't see it, so I stopped him a few words, but I didn't expect it to become like this today."

When Mrs. He heard Sheng Shaoqing mention Wang Yu, her complexion changed a little, and she sneered, "Hmph, what you taught is that his nephew is not a good thing! Every time he gets into trouble, his uncle will help him clean up. In the He family, such a junior will be whipped!"

Sheng Shaoqing also echoed, but Mrs. He said with a sluggish expression, "It's a pity... the great-grandfather who was murdered back then was exiled abroad, and it made him dare not come back to recognize us, what a crime!"

Sheng Shaoqing also heard from Ji Wenxuan last night that he also checked the system to find out what happened to the He family back then, and finally had a general understanding of the family he was going to impersonate.

From Sheng Shaoqing's point of view, it was a huge unjust, false and wrong case during Emperor Jing's reign, but countless innocent people were executed, and their families were destroyed.

It was just because a Zhongshu Ling surnamed Cui uttered a few truths, and these truths appeared in places where they should not have appeared, which angered Emperor Jing, and the three clans of Zhongshu Ling did not say anything. Anyone who is related to this Zhongshu Ling will not escape death.

Emperor Jing's momentum made the court and wild people panic at that time. Who knows if he is in court today, will he have a head tomorrow?
