Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 149 News from Aunt Kang (please subscribe)

When Yuan Wenshao walked into the hall, he smelled the pungent smell of alcohol.

There were wine jars everywhere on the table and floor. Gu Tingye was holding a wine jar and pouring wine into his mouth, as if he didn't notice him coming.

Shitou on the side showed a hint of joy when he saw Yuan Wenshao coming in: "Uncle, please help persuade my young master."

"It's okay, it's okay that he's drunk now."

Yuan Wenshao said, picked up a jar of wine, sat next to Gu Tingye, and took a sip.

Gu Tingye put down the wine jar, glanced at him dimly, and grinned, "You're here."

"Come on, have a drink."

Yuan Wenshao raised the wine jar in his hand and did not say any words of persuasion or comfort.

For this kind of thing, no matter how much others try to persuade him, it's useless. Only Gu Tingye can come out on his own.

"Drink." Gu Tingye picked up the wine jar, touched it with Yuan Wenshao, and took another big sip.

The two of them didn't say anything, they just kept drinking, and soon they drank the whole bottle.

At this moment, Chang Bai walked in. Seeing this scene, he frowned and joined in.

"Haha, I pride myself on my intelligence, but I didn't expect that I would be tricked by two women all the time."

Gu Tingye took a big sip of wine, with tears of regret in his eyes, and said to himself: "My stepmother has been very good to me since I was a child, even better than her own son. I have never had a mother since I was a child, but I have never been Lack of maternal love. It wasn’t until yesterday that I discovered her true identity. She was just trying to flatter me."

"Erlang reminded me several times that Mannia was not as simple as she seemed, but I still refused to believe it, and I had a bad feeling with him because of it."

"Hahaha, I thought so highly of myself. It seems now that I am really a fool."

Gu Tingye drank wine while talking, with tears streaming down his face.

Changbai opened his mouth to comfort him, but Yuan Wenshao held him back and shook his head slightly.

To be honest, he admired Gu Tingye a little.

The woman he trusted and liked actually had another purpose. She was falsely interested in him. After her true identity was discovered, she ran away with her son.

For this reason, he had a conflict with his father, which made him so angry that he couldn't even see him for the last time.

His stepmother, who had always been kind to him, turned out to be pretending to be secretly planning to kill him.

If these things happened on the same day, anyone would probably go crazy.

Yuan Wenshao thought that he could not bear such a blow.

Gu Tingye kept talking there, taking a big sip of wine from time to time. He didn't know how long it took before he passed out from drunkenness.

"Sir." Shitou was anxious and quickly went up to check.

"Zhong Huai was just drunk, so we carried him to the bed to let him rest," Yuan Wenshao said.

After helping to carry Gu Tingye back to the room and letting Shi Shi take care of him, Yuan Wenshao and Chang Bai walked out.

"Uncle Yuan, Master Sheng, is my brother okay?" Aunt Chang asked worriedly.

"What happened this time has hit him hard. It's a good thing that he's drunk. Otherwise, he'll keep it in his heart. I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it. Aunt Chang, let's go back first. Don't persuade him when he wakes up. Now He won't listen to anything you say, and after some time, he will be able to figure it out on his own," Yuan Wenshao said.

"Thank you, Uncle Yuan and Mr. Sheng. If it weren't for you, Shitou and I really don't know what we would do now." Aunt Chang said gratefully.

"Mom, you're welcome. Zhong Huai and we are both friends," Chang Bai said.

"I'll send Uncle Yuan and Mr. Sheng off."

"Aunt Chang is staying here. Zhonghuai still needs Aunt Chang to take care of her."

The two of them nodded to Aunt Chang and left the yard.

After leaving the yard, Changbai sighed: "How can there be such a mother in this world?"

Gu Tingye's incident reminded him of his grandmother.

His father was not the old lady's biological child, but the old lady devoted her whole life to the Sheng family and Sheng Hong.

Yuan Wenshao shook his head and did not make any further comments. Everyone has selfish motives. Xiao Qin has his own son, so he naturally has to consider his own children.

"When you have free time these days, you can come and spend time with Zhonghuai. There is no need to persuade him, just drink with him." Yuan Wenshao said.

"Yes." Changbai nodded.

After the two separated, Yuan Wenshao went home directly.

Hualan smelled the pungent smell of alcohol on his body and wondered: "Today is the first day, so there shouldn't be a banquet. Why did the official drink so much wine?"

In ancient times, funerals often took several months because the journey was too far and it took time for some relatives to get back.

When Gu Yankai passed away, only people from Bianjing came to express condolences in the past few days, and the host's family would not hold a banquet. They would only hold a banquet after everyone from other places arrived.

"Gu Tingye was kicked out of the Hou Mansion. I left the Gu family and went to see him and have some drinks with him." Yuan Wenshao said.

"There are rumors circulating that it was Gu Tingye who made Marquis Ningyuan so angry. Is it true?" Hualan asked.

"It's hard to say what happened. On the surface, it seems that Gu Tingye made Marquis Ning Yuan so angry that he vomited blood, which caused an old illness, and he died. I don't know what the situation is," Yuan Wenshao said.

Gu Yankai led troops in his early years and had been suffering from old health problems. However, it would be a bit mysterious to say that he died after being angry and vomiting blood.

Yuan Wenshao even suspected that Xiao Qin had done something.

After all, Gu Yankai wanted to pass the title on to Gu Tingye, and as a close friend, Xiao Qin should also know.

Xiao Qin has gone crazy to let her son inherit the title, so it is not impossible to attack Gu Yankai.

But these are just his guesses, and he can't tell anyone.

……

Bianjing Pier
Mrs. Wang saw a ship flying the king flag from a distance and said happily: "It's coming, it's coming."

Today is the day when the Wang family returns to Beijing. Early in the morning, Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang led Changbai Rulan, and Aunt Kang and his wife also brought their children to the dock to wait.

As Hua Lan's granddaughter and Yuan Wenshao's grandson-in-law, it was natural that they would also come.

When the boat docked at the pier, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Kang got on the boat. After a while, an energetic old lady walked out, supporting one from the left and the other from the right.

Behind them were a middle-aged couple and several boys and girls, followed by a group of maids.

After getting off the boat, Mrs. Wang's eyes were filled with nostalgia and she said: "I have been away from Bianjing for so long, but Bianjing has not changed. It just looks much more prosperous than before."

"Mother will always live in Bianjing from now on, and she will gradually get used to it." Aunt Kang said with a smile.

"Yes, mother, we were far apart before and my daughter couldn't fulfill her filial piety. Now, we are all in Bianjing and my daughter can stay with you." Madam Wang said with a smile.

The two sons-in-law came forward to greet him. The old lady didn't like the son-in-law of the Kang family very much, but she praised the son-in-law of Sheng Hong a lot, which made Mrs. Wang burst into laughter.

Then a group of juniors came forward to salute.

"Okay, okay." Old Mrs. Wang looked at Changbai and said happily: "You have won the election at such a young age. You are better than your grandfather and grandpa. It has brought honor to both the Sheng and Wang families. Your grandfather, who knows what I am doing, must be very pleased. "

"Grandma received the award. Ranking does not mean achievement. My grandfather is a concubine, and my grandpa is a grand master. How can my grandson be able to compare?" Changbai said.

"You are still young. Didn't your grandfather also come step by step? As long as you work hard in the future, it is not impossible to surpass your grandfather."

Mrs. Wang encouraged her a little, looked at Yuan Wenshao and said with a smile, "Is this Hua Lan's husband?"

"My grandson-in-law, Yuan Wenshao, has met my grandmother." Yuan Wenshao saluted. "Okay, okay." Mrs. Wang nodded, looked at Sister Wen next to Yuan Wenshao, and said with a smile: "Is this your and Hua Lan's child? I think it's called Sister Wen, right?"

"Grandma, I remember correctly, her name is Sister Wen."

Hua Lan responded with a smile and asked Sister Wen to step forward and salute.

Sister Wen was not afraid of life, so she stepped forward and saluted, "I have met my great-grandmother."

Mrs. Wang smiled and nodded, took off a bracelet from her wrist, handed it over, and said with a smile: "This is a meeting gift prepared by my great-grandmother for you."

"Grandma, this is too expensive. Besides, she is still young and can't take it with her." Hua Lan quickly refused.

Grand Master Wang was a veteran of three dynasties and had won the trust of three generations of officials, so naturally she received many rewards.

This bracelet was a gift from the Queen Mother. It was made of fine blood jade and was very precious. She had often heard her mother talk about it.

The old lady pretended to be displeased and said: "I gave this to my great-granddaughter. Why are you talking so much? She can't take it with her. Can't you, a mother, help him find it and keep it?"

Hualan glanced at her mother and saw her nodding, then asked Sister Wen to step forward and take it.

"Thank you great-grandmother."

Sister Wen took the bracelet and liked it very much. She put it on her wrist and admired it happily.

Unfortunately, her arms were too thin and she couldn't carry it. Hua Lan was afraid that she would fall, so she quickly asked her to hold it for her.

The bracelet was taken away by her mother, and Sister Wen was still a little unhappy.

Yuan Wenshao was speechless. Are women inherently irresistible to shiny things?
"Mom, it's getting late, let's go home first." Aunt Kang said.

There are only two blood jade bracelets in total. It was the Queen Mother's favorite thing back then and she gifted one to Mrs. Wang.

Both she and Mrs. Wang had been thinking about this bracelet, but Mrs. Wang simply didn't give it to anyone.

Unexpectedly, it was now given to Hua Lan’s daughter.

However, Hualan was not what she used to be. She felt unhappy and didn't say anything.

"When people get older, they like to nag. Let's get in the car." Mrs. Wang said.

After saluting, the servants packed and transported them back, and the group got into the carriage and headed for Bianjing.

The Wang family also has a house in Bianjing, and it is also in the inner city. Although the house is not as big as the Sheng family's house, it is not much smaller.

But the value is much more expensive than the Sheng family's house.

When the Wang family received the transfer order, they sent people to Bianjing to clean up. Mrs. Wang and Aunt Kang often came to keep an eye on it.

The carriage came all the way to the gate of Wang's house. After getting off the carriage, Yuan Wenshao saw two large stone lions standing at the gate of Wang's house.

Judging from its size, it can only be used by princes.

This was authorized by the late emperor. Although Mrs. Wang has passed away, Mrs. Wang is still there and has not been taken back.

However, after Mrs. Wang passed away, Uncle Wang was no longer qualified to use it due to his rank.

After entering the house and walking all the way to the front hall, Mrs. Wang took a look at the furnishings in the hall and said, "It's still the same, nothing has changed."

"Mom, I have often sent people to clean it over the years so that it can stay the same as before." Aunt Kang said with a smile.

"Haha, thank you for your hard work."

Seeing everyone standing, Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "What are you doing standing around? Sit down."

Then everyone sat down one by one.

Mrs. Wang looked at Sheng Hong and said, "How is Mrs. Sheng's health now?"

"Back to my mother-in-law, my mother is still in good health." Sheng Hong said.

"Well, that's good." Mrs. Wang nodded.

After chatting for a while, Aunt Wang said she was going to have lunch, and Mrs. Wang and Aunt Kang also went there.

When Aunt Kang left, she glanced at Yuan Wenshao and winked at him.

Yuan Wenshao understood, found an excuse, and left the front hall.

"Erlang, here."

As soon as he came out of the front hall, Aunt Kang waved to him from the corner of the room.

Yuan Wenshao walked over and whispered: "Aunt, what news is there?"

Aunt Kang looked around, and then whispered: "Feng Min, the Zuo Jianyi doctor, was drunk yesterday and said that he would impeach you in the near future."

Yuan Wenshao frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Why does he want to impeach me?"

"He is from King Yong. He seems to have been instructed by King Yong. I don't know the details. He was drunk at the time and fell asleep without saying a few words." Aunt Kang said.

"I understand, thank you aunt." Yuan Wenshao said.

"Erlang, what do you think about Jin'er?" Aunt Kang said.

"Don't worry, aunt, I'm already taking care of this matter, and there will be news soon." Yuan Wenshao said.

"Thank you so much, Erlang, I'll go first." Aunt Kang said.

"Yes." Yuan Wenshao nodded.

After Aunt Kang left, Yuan Wenshao frowned slightly. He didn't expect that King Yong's hand had already been inserted into Jianyuan.

In the previous dynasty, the Admonition Court was under the jurisdiction of Menxia Province, but this dynasty made the Admonition Court independent. The Admonition Officers were no longer under the management and recommendation of the prime minister, but were directly promoted by the emperor.

The Remonstration Yuan has great authority. It can discuss the appointment of officials of the imperial court and various political affairs, put forward opinions, and regulate and admonish the government for deficiencies.

The admonishers have always had the habit of speaking out everything they know, and they dare to speak out against even the policies proposed by their father-in-law.

Although the admonishment officer was only from the fourth rank, ordinary second and third rank officials would not dare to offend him.

No one can bear to be stared at for impeachment.

After all, it's easy to pick a bone in an egg. Even if you can't pick it out, it's still a crime and disgusting.

The admonishment court has a special status. In order not to arouse suspicion among officials, it never participates in forming parties.

King Yong and King Yan fought to win over officials, but they did not dare to win over Jian Yuan and the Prime Minister of the court.

Now that even the officials of the Admonition Yuan have taken sides, could it be that the officials have already made a decision?
He was not surprised that King Yong instigated Feng Min to impeach him.

He thought about it carefully and found that he had not made any omissions during this period. What could King Yong do to impeach him?

After having dinner at Wang's house at noon and sitting with him for a while, Yuan Wenshao found an excuse and left Wang's house.

When he got home, he asked Zhang An to check carefully and found no problem.

"Did King Yong discover the secret guard?"

Yuan Wenshao thought about it and felt that it was unlikely. If he knew about the secret guard, he could kill himself. He only needed to report it to the officials. There was no need to impeach him in the early morning.

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore, I'll find out tomorrow morning."
