Wei Shu

Chapter 40
How can there be such a stupid person in this world!

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

These two people only know one thing, but not the other.

The reason why Gude Nadan respects Shujiu is because of his father - Mangtai.

Shujiu has always been in Mangtai's fancy. As the eldest son, Gu De should obey his father's wishes and treat him with courtesy.

But Dachang'an and Munger are Gude's subordinates, and everything they do is equivalent to Gude's intention, but they have just turned Gude's usual respect into obedience and injustice, this is one of them.

Second, this incident also exposed the shortcomings of Gude's lax governance, and this is the main reason for his annoyance.

A few days ago, there was a "Harqin warrior murder case". The deceased was Da Chang'an's subordinates, and the Suota people under Munger's leadership were the biggest suspects.

Fortunately, Dachang'an is still a bit smart, and he didn't 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, so he ordered the government to investigate the case, and appeased Da Chang'an and Munger respectively.

After the general learned about this, he was very satisfied, and praised his eldest son as "young and steady". Today, the major general specially brought Da Changan and the two of them with him for a banquet at home. Shuai knew that the situation had calmed down.

In addition, the major general also smoothed over the incident half a year ago.

Although the headman whose daughter died was from a commoner background, it doesn't matter in itself, but his youngest son works as a clerk in the prince's mansion in the imperial capital, and often goes in and out with the prince.

It is because of this relationship that Gude took a ruthless hand half a year ago and personally ordered someone to investigate the case. Afterwards, he has always been very cold towards Da Changan. This is not only intended to punish, but also to serve Changli That group of people watched.

Since that incident, Mangtai has become more and more trusting of the eldest son. A while ago, he even entrusted the eldest son to do such important things as checking the eyeliner, which obviously recognized his ability.

If he wanted to maintain such trust, the major general had to show his talent at all times, and he couldn't relax in the slightest.

After all, incompetence is a more fatal defect than the minor defect of yang serving yin.

Especially in Nadan's family, incompetent people are useless people, and anyone can bully them.

Fortunately, this is Baishuang City, there are not many masters in the house, if it is in Changli's family, I am afraid that someone will blow it into Mangtai's ears right now.

When thinking this way, Ali's eyes were filled with melancholy.

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

The real master in Baihuayuan is the one who is the most ignorant, and her eyeliner is almost all over the back house.

But I don't know, will the matter of just now be recorded by someone with a heart, and then quietly pass it on to the Allah?

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

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

When he was passing by the group of maids just now, he suddenly felt a very unusual breath, long and light, simple and solid, between the outside and inside, it seemed to have merged into the garden full of flowers and trees.

When masters of martial arts exhale and breathe, they all have the same force as time, place, momentum, and energy. The more round and comfortable the person, the deeper the internal force will be, and the higher the martial arts will be.

When the martial arts reaches the perfect level, one breath and one breath will naturally follow the heaven and the earth. At that time, even if the person himself is right in front of your eyes, you will seem to see it but not see it.

Naturally, the breath that Shu Jiu noticed was far from reaching the state of perfection, but it had reached the level of a master, so he stopped to check.

After that, he saw Clover.

He knew that the woman named Xu was the wet nurse of Seventh Girl Huazhen, and Huazhen was Mangtai's favorite daughter, and she was also the youngest daughter of the current mistress of the Nadan family and Mangtai's main wife.

If one really talks about one's background, Hua Zhen, born on the first wife, is a step higher than Gu De, the eldest son born on the concubine.

These are not secrets. They are all recorded in Zhuangzi's "Nadan Family Tree". Shujiu has read it twice carefully, and I still have the impression to this day.

The Nadan family, with its many wives and concubines and many children, is not as harmonious as it appears on the surface. Among the more than ten "strange stories" recorded in "Nadan Family Tree", more than half of them involve human life.

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

When there are more people, there will be more right and wrong, plus the benefits in front of you and the reputation behind you, and intrigues will emerge endlessly.

And after seeing that the group of maids were from Baihuayuan, Shu Jiu didn't care anymore.

Now that Baishuang City is at a critical juncture, and Mang Tai is the person chosen by Dazhuangtou himself, what about his family's private affairs, and how the concubine and his daughter-in-law are fighting openly and covertly, Shu Jiu doesn't care about it first, and it's not appropriate to ask more about it.

Inside the gate of the mansion, many things cannot be put on the table.

Inexplicably, there is a hidden master beside Huazhen. How is it different from the "eyeliner list" that Gude Nadan presented to his father?
The former is aiming for "profit", but what the latter wants is just the word "profit".

Fortunately, Mangtai was not confused, after he sifted through the list of true and false, the real culprits were immediately picked out, and the handling methods were decisive and thorough, which really lived up to the name of a general.

Presumably, Huazhen's careful thinking should also be in Mangtai's eyes.

However, when the time is right, Mangtai still has to be reminded, so as not to miss the important event.

Shujiu soon had a plan. He heard the sound of yelling and drinking from the partition wall, and the smell of wine wafted into his nose. He knew that the banquet had begun, so he closed his eyes and adjusted his breath, waiting for the banquet to end.

This meal of wine was drunk until dusk.

After realizing that there was a big matter on his mind, Mangtai was in a good mood. He was so drunk that he was supported by Gu De to rest.

Da Chang'an and the others were also so drunk that they couldn't even stand up when the banquet was over, and they were carried out of the yard one by one.

Wang Kuang didn't feel much drunk.

He has always had a lot of alcohol, and he has almost never been drunk in his life. When he stepped out of the small courtyard at this moment, he also looked relaxed and walked calmly.

"Ah Jiu." When he walked to a corner outside the courtyard, he called out in a low voice.

Shu Jiu quietly appeared in front of his eyes.

After being on duty for nearly three hours, the gray robe on Shu Jiu's body was still spotless, as if he had just come out of the study room filled with the fragrance of ink, rather than having been blown outside for a long time.

"These golden men can really drink." Wang Kuang finally felt a little stupefied in his eyes when he saw him.

He was actually a little drunk too.
