Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 339 Yes
Sheng Hong is a tactful person and likes to weigh the pros and cons of everything he does.

After the incident of Mrs. Sheng being poisoned happened, his first thought was to minimize the big issue and preserve the reputation of the Sheng family.

Although Minglan forced him to toughen up, he also wavered many times under Mrs. Wang's lobbying.

However, at this moment, Sheng Hong's words were very decisive.

The reputation of the Sheng family is important, but Sheng Changbai is even more important.

Because Sheng Changbai is the future of the Sheng family.

Now that Sheng Changbai doesn't even care about his future, how can Sheng Hong endure it?
"I ask myself how much I care about the Kang family. Whether it's money or lawsuits, I will try my best to help you with everything I can!" Sheng Hong said angrily: "Is this how my aunt repays me? My mother doesn't like her, so she wants to Kill my mother. I dare to ask my mother-in-law, what did my aunt do to the Sheng family? She poisoned her when she wanted to, and framed her whenever she wanted. Is it easy to bully someone named Sheng? "

Mrs. Wang's face was ashen. She had never been ridiculed like this in her life. She had been ridiculed repeatedly by Minglan before, and now she was ridiculed one after another by her favorite grandson and most satisfied son-in-law.

Sheng Hong took a breath and sneered: "Sister-in-law is very confident. Now I understand that it is my mother-in-law who is protecting me! It seems that my mother-in-law looks down on me! I am expected to be weak and can be bullied. I don't care about the Sheng family's family status." It's so meager, so use my son's career and the reputation of the Sheng family to threaten you. If you want to go to court, go to court!"

After saying that, he pointed at his uncle from the Wang family and continued: "Over the years, my aunt has probably had more than three lives in her hands. How many times has my uncle covered up for her and sealed so many people's mouths? Let's go to court together. Spread it out, I want to see if my eldest sister can still save her life if she is punished for several crimes!"

Minglan almost didn't cheer loudly. Her confused father finally became wiser for a while. If he had been like this earlier, things would have ended long ago.

Except for being stupid when it came to Lin Xiaoniang, Sheng Hong was a shrewd person at other times. Although he had helped a few times with those messy things, most of them were to provide money, say good things, and not get involved in any right or wrong. However, Uncle Wang's family was involved in Very deep. If all those old events come out, not only will the Kang and Wang family be finished, but Uncle Wang's official position may also be lost.

As soon as these words came out, Aunt Wang's face suddenly changed. She pulled her husband's sleeves hard and gave her a stern look. Uncle Wang sweatdropped and looked at his mother: "Mother..."

How could Mrs. Wang not see the pleading in her son's eyes? She felt cold in her heart and sat down with a dejected look on her face. Her arms holding the chair were shaking violently.

From the moment Sheng Changbai decided to deal with the Kang Wang family, she understood that there was little room for change.

Mrs. Wang smiled miserably and said, "That's all. After all, it's me who didn't teach my daughter well. Just let me do what you want."

As soon as Mrs. Wang said these words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But then, everyone started to have headaches again.

How should Kang Wangshi deal with it?

It's definitely not possible to kill him. After all, it's a human life. The Wang Jiakang family has now agreed to let them handle it, but who knows whether they will change their mind after death.

Kang Wang was the mastermind behind the poisoning and murder of Mrs. Sheng. If Mrs. Sheng was not dead, she would definitely not be punished until death.

In addition, they dealt with it privately. Once the Kang and Wang families bite back, the Sheng family will fall into a passive position.

But it is not enough to deal with it lightly.

Just as Minglan was about to speak, Gu Tingye grabbed her, stood up and said, "I have a suggestion."

Seeing everyone looking over, Gu Tingye said: "Although this King Kang has committed a heinous crime, he is also a relative of the Sheng family. If he is executed directly, it will also affect the feelings of the three families of King Sheng and Kang.

However, it would not be possible to let her go easily, not to mention that she would inevitably hold a grudge after being dealt with. If this matter is leaked, it will be a huge scandal for the three families. "

"Yes, yes, why not send her to a nunnery outside the city." Mrs. Wang said quickly.

Before, she was unwilling to send Kang Wang to the nunnery where the female relatives were exiled.

After all, life there was very hard, and she couldn't get people out in a short time.

Now I don't care about so much. Although I suffer some pain, I can save my life.

Wait a few years, let the limelight pass, and then get people out.

"no!"

Minglan objected loudly without thinking.

Gu Tingye gave Minglan a look, telling her to calm down, and said: "Sending it to a nunnery outside the city will definitely not work. After all, those nunneries can still be connected with the outside world. If the Kangwang family talks nonsense and the matter spreads, What should I do if the reputation of the three families is ruined? I can find someone to help and send them to the Warning Department."

"No!" Mrs. Wang's face changed drastically when she heard this.

The Department of Shenjie was under the control of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It was originally used to punish the female relatives of the emperor. Later, its business expanded. Those women who made serious mistakes in the families of princes and nobles, although the crime did not lead to death, could no longer be seen in public. , then send them all here. Shen Jie Si is not an ordinary nunnery where female relatives are exiled. Once they enter, they are not allowed to come out again unless ordered by the emperor.

It was like a tomb of the living dead, located in a very remote and desolate corner of the imperial city. No matter how much scandal and turmoil there had been outside, all the right and wrongs followed people in, and were buried invisible, no longer able to probe.

So far, I have never heard of any female family members coming out alive after entering. Most of them had their bodies taken out for burial by their families after they died. To put it bluntly, King Kang prospered the three families, so he was not qualified to send people in.

This is why no one has suggested it before.

But Gu Tingye can bring it up, no one doubts that he has this ability.

"Good boy, grandma, please, please forgive me... I know you hate your aunt very much. Isn't it okay if I ask her to go to the nunnery to chant Buddha's words and eat fast? I ask her to practice Buddhism with her hair, otherwise she can become a nun even if she loses her hair. Don't let her come out to harm people anymore." Mrs. Wang was in tears and looked at Sheng Changbai pleadingly: "I really can't go to the Shenjie Department! There are hard labors there, like pounding rice, washing clothes, chopping firewood, and eating. Your aunt has been pampered and pampered all her life, how can she hold on to this coarse tea and bad food..."

"The Department of Shenjie can ask relatives to visit twice a year. If my grandmother goes to visit more often, I think the people inside will not embarrass my aunt too much. As for hard labor... After doing such an unjust thing, does my aunt still want to enjoy the honor and wealth? "

Sheng Changbai was unmoved and said sarcastically, "Are you talking about the nunnery? Remember seven or eight years ago, wasn't my aunt sent to live in the Kang family temple? After only half a year, my grandmother couldn't bear her aunt's pity and went to the Kang family in person. , begging and forcing my aunt to be released again."

"But your grandmother is not dead after all." Mrs. Wang said.

At this time, Gu Tingye interrupted: "What the old lady said is wrong. People have different ways of living. My old lady has always been strong and healthy, but after my wife was poisoned, her body was broken down and her life was drained. She could have lived to a hundred years. Eighteen, now I can only live to be 108. I could have spent my old age happily listening to plays, watching dances, climbing mountains and visiting temples, but now I can't live without medicine, and I may still be in pain for the rest of my life. Decades of joy, old madam, how should my aunt compensate?"

Sheng Changbai nodded and said: "What my brother-in-law said is that there is also brother Quan. How can my grandmother molest her grandson in the future?"

"Exactly." Gu Tingye clapped his hands and smiled: "I really don't know how much we owe. We don't know how long my aunt will live. We can't ask her to go to hell years in advance, or the old lady has difficulty moving. It's not good. Just break my aunt's hands and feet and send her to the Shenjie Department, and the feud between the three families will be wiped out!"

"My cousin dealt with my mother so neatly..." Kang Jin, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, with grief and anger on his face: "What about your father-in-law?"

"you…"

Mrs. Wang thought she could escape, but when she saw that the incident was involving her again, she was about to curse, but Sheng Changbai stopped her.

Sheng Changbai said calmly: "My mother was disrespectful to my grandmother and had an unfilial and rebellious heart. Naturally, she deserves to be punished. My mother will worship the Buddha, recite sutras, and pray for my grandmother."

Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Exactly, I plan to create a Buddhist hall in the back room..."

"Not at home." Sheng Changbai shook his head.

Mrs. Wang was stunned for a moment and said: "Yes, I made a big mistake. I should be looking for a pure nunnery in the capital..."

"It's not the nunnery in Beijing." Sheng Changbai looked at his mother and said calmly, "Mother is going back to her hometown of Youyang to practice in the Sheng family temple, eat fast, chant Buddha's words, and repent. Except during the holidays, mother is not allowed to leave the family temple. Mrs. Wang was stunned, stood up straight, and screamed: "Isn't this a prison sentence?"

Sheng Changbai said word by word: "If mother refuses, I will resign. If my mother is like this, she still doesn't regret her mistakes and refuses to accept punishment, I will never have the face to continue to be an official."

Minglan lowered her head and thought deeply after hearing this. The Wang family had never liked Youyang. She had been married into the Sheng family for decades, and the total time she spent in her hometown was less than a month. There, she had no relatives or friends and could only rely on her uncle's family.

In view of Wang's relationship with her cousin-in-law, I imagine her eldest aunt would be willing to sternly urge her to "repent." In addition, the two cousins ​​are very close after all, and the eldest aunt will not neglect the Wang family's daily necessities.

You can't say that Sheng Changbai's treatment was very good, and Minglan couldn't fault it.

Mrs. Wang was anxious and said hurriedly: "...you kid, who are you kidding? I can't do it at home, so I can't worship Buddha in the nunnery. I have to go back to my hometown. I'm not familiar with the people there..."

"My mother left her family and was alone in front of the ancestors of the Sheng family. She thought carefully about her grandmother and everyone in the family. She thought about what went wrong in the past few decades and whether she should have done it right."

Sheng Changbai walked over and helped his mother sit down: "Mother knows that my son can do whatever he says."

Mrs. Wang was sweating profusely in a panic and stammered: "Then... how long do I have to go..."

"Ten years." Sheng Changbai said lightly, "Ten years later, when my mother has figured it out, she will come back to serve my grandmother."

Mrs. Wang almost lost her temper, jumped up angrily, pointed at her son and cursed: "You evildoer! Just resign if you resign. Who are you threatening?"

After saying that, he ran out of the house like a gust of wind, covering his face and crying all the way.

The room suddenly became quiet. Mrs. Wang looked at Sheng Changbai and was speechless for a long time. Kang Jin shut up completely.

In the end, Mrs. Wang left with her son, wife and Kang Jin.

She still wanted to beg Sheng Changbai, but seeing how harshly Sheng Changbai punished her biological mother, she knew that there was no way she could persuade Sheng Changbai.

It seems that Wang's punishment is just to go back to Youyang's hometown to eat fast and chant Buddha's name.

But the people in the second room of the Sheng family are all in Bianjing and rarely go back to Youyang.

In other words, she would hardly see her sons, daughters, and grandchildren in ten years.

The most important thing is that Mrs. Wang is only in her forties now. Although she is no longer young, she is still agile.

Ten years later, Mrs. Wang will be almost sixty.

As soon as the Wang family left, Haishi walked in and invited everyone to eat in the side hall, as if he didn't know anything.

After eating, everyone went to Shou'an Hall to see the old lady.

Although the old lady woke up, she was not energetic. They did not tell the old lady how to punish Kang Wang and Mrs. Wang.

After Mrs. Sheng fell asleep, Gu Tingye told Minglan and prepared to return to the palace.

He had an errand to carry out and the errand was not finished. Logically speaking, he could not return to Beijing privately.

In order not to leave any excuses, Gu Tingye asked Queen Huan for instructions and came back under the pretext of returning to Beijing to report to the officials.

"Sixth brother-in-law, I have something to ask you." Hua Lan stopped Gu Tingye.

"Is the eldest sister because of the eldest brother-in-law?" Gu Tingye asked.

Although he is in Jiangnan, he also knows something about things in Bianjing.

"Well, rumors are spreading all over Bianjing now. Many people say that the official will be questioned. I am really worried." Hua Lan said worriedly.

"Eldest sister, don't worry, eldest brother-in-law is doing things appropriately and nothing will happen to him," Gu Tingye said.

"Really?" Hua Lan was delighted when he heard this.

"Well, if the officials wanted to deal with it, they would have dealt with it long ago. Since there is no news, it means that the officials don't want to deal with it. Even if the officials have no choice but to deal with the eldest brother-in-law, they will deal with it lightly and stop everyone's mouth. The eldest brother-in-law will be dealt with lightly. It'll be okay," Gu Tingye said.

"That way I can rest assured. My sixth brother-in-law has been delayed from his business, so you can go ahead and get going." Hua Lan said with a sigh of relief.

"Then I'll go." Gu Tingye cupped his hands and walked out.

Minglan opened her mouth. She wanted to tell Gu Tingye about Mannia in the Orange Garden, but she had never found the chance before.

However, Gu Tingye has something serious to do now, and it's not convenient to talk about it. It's better to wait until he comes back.

……

Gu Tingye left Sheng's house, got on his horse and said, "Shitou, please stop following me. Go to Orange Garden, capture that bitch, and find a way to find out the whereabouts of Brother Chang."

He has been looking for Mannia's whereabouts. He has already received the news that Mannia appeared in the Orange Garden.

The reason why I haven't come back is because I really can't leave.

Secondly, I also thought about setting up surveillance first to see if I could find Brother Chang's whereabouts.

Based on Gu Tingye's understanding of her, if he asked Mannia directly, Mannia would definitely put forward conditions, otherwise it would be impossible to tell him the whereabouts of Brother Chang.

However, after such a long time, the surveillance people only discovered that Mannia had contact with people from the Xiao Qin family, and nothing else.

At this time, Gu Tingye had lost his patience.

Because of Mannia, Minglan had to return to the Sheng family.

He was frightened when he heard the news that Mrs. Sheng was poisoned.

You must know that Minglan also lives in Shouantang. If Minglan also eats poisonous snacks, who knows what will happen.

"Yes!" Shitou replied after hearing the words.

Gu Tingye rode his horse to the outside of the imperial city, dismounted and entered the imperial city.

Arriving at the palace gate, after being notified, they entered the palace.
