You sell swords, I go crazy, I am a father in Shengjing

Chapter 23 Well, yes, this princess understands fairness best~

With everyone present watching, Qi Su and Xie Lian's faces were like the bottom of a pot, and they were eager to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.

Life is all about saving face, let alone someone in a high position like them?

However, now that the matter has come to this, if they still keep it secretive, they will only fall further behind.

So the two of them immediately cleared their throats and wrote lightly:
"Benhou and Mr. Xie drank a lot of alcohol today, and it is inevitable that they are overwhelmed... Hey, I also made everyone laugh."

"It's all your fault for drinking so much. Otherwise, how could I and the Marquis be like this? You are fined with alcohol. You all have to fine me with alcohol today!"

Seeing the two trying to laugh, even if the others want to laugh, they dare not laugh now.

Besides, everyone is a smart person, not to say that they understand all the secrets in the rear house, but they know most of them.

Therefore, from the son-in-law's suspicion of having fun in the backyard, to the Marquis of Jingyuan and Mr. Xie messing around with the actor, they absolutely don't believe that there is no story in it.

But everyone is laughing, can you not go down the donkey?
"Master Marquis and Mr. Xie are still a little behind on their drinking capacity. They have to practice, and they have to practice hard!"

"Let's go on, let's keep drinking! If you drink more, you won't get drunk."

"Isn't it? Small things are all small things. It's a rare birthday for the old lady. We can't waste time on this matter."

……

Seeing all the guests making jokes and pretending to help Qi Su and Xie Lian expose the matter, Qi Xiao, who was standing next to Feng Xi, couldn't help but sneer.

This is Shengjing, the center of Dazhao's power. The aristocratic family is like a forest, and the family is at the forefront. Those with high status respond to every call, and those with low status are as humble as ants.

If it was him who was folded inside today, would they help cover it up?
No, they would just laugh wantonly, wishing to take off his skin and try to kill him.

Fortunately, he didn't expect to get anything in the mansion, it would be enough to make Qi Su and Xie Lian lose face so much that they could not lift their heads in Shengjing City for a short time.

As for the others, he still has plenty of time...

Then he heard Feng Xi who was beside him say:
"Since you are innocent after drinking, you two should always be responsible, right? In this way, I am a kind-hearted princess, so I will make an exception to be a witness for you today. Tell me, who wants this beauty?"

Xie Lian: "?"

Qi Su: "?"

Isn't this a shame for them by default, and then they should be done with perfunctory perfunctory?

They didn't continue to trouble Qi Xiao, who was obviously a problem person, so how could she still dare to bite him?
Seeing that neither of them opened their mouths, Feng Xi immediately looked at Chu Tao, not consciously saying that she was looking for trouble:

"It doesn't matter. Even if the woman is not a good family member, she can be reported to the official position according to the Dazhao Law. Don't cry, I will take you to Jingzhao Mansion to make the decision right now!"

As he said this, the guards from the Princess's Mansion came forward and tried to take Hatsumoo away.

But Hatsumomo, who had just suffered an old crime and knew that she would not be able to do things well today and was likely to be silenced, instantly saw hope in Feng Xi.

The idiot princess is good, if it is not an idiot, how can I help her?
Seeing that Chu Tao really wanted to hold the hands of the two guards, Qi Su and Xie Lian finally panicked.

If you lose this face, you can earn it again, but it will be troublesome to send Hatsumomo to Jingzhao Mansion.

Regardless of the fact that one of them is the Marquis of Jingyuan and the other is the Minister of Dali Temple, in fact, the former's title is all based on picking up leaks, while the latter is looking at the face of Lao Tzu and sister.

Once the Jingzhao Mansion makes a serious move due to Feng Xi's nonsense, and Hatsutao pulls out of their plan, both of them will have to live with it.

Feng Xi is a fool, but the imperial censor and their political enemies are not...

So no matter what, Hatsumomo had to stay under their noses.

Seeing Qi Su and Xie Lian wavering, obviously wanting to relent, the one who couldn't sit still first was not Feng Xi, but Su Yu with red eyes.

"No, sir, I don't agree!"

She, Su Yu, thinks she is a good family manager, and her natal family can talk, so she met the two aunts in the mansion in advance to make sure that there would be no trouble before welcoming them into the mansion.

Facts have proved that she has a good vision. Apart from adding two concubines to the third family in recent years, she has no other worries.

But Hatsumomo looks like a foxy girl at first glance, so she must not be allowed into the house!
Seeing Su Yu yelling regardless, Xie Lian and Xie Lang couldn't hold back.

But Xie Lang knew that he also had his interests in it, so he would not open his mouth to comfort him.

And after Su Yu hurriedly expressed his position, the furious Old Madam Qi also shouted:

"No, the family tradition of the Hou Mansion is pure and upright, how can such things come into my house?"

After her daughter-in-law died of illness, her son never married again in order to imitate his second wife and gain fame, let alone take concubines. She was in control of everything in the house.

Now that the second wife has not been removed and the family is not stable, how can we add such things into the house and cause trouble?

"Yes, we don't want this in our family!"

Qi Miao also glared at Chutao viciously, not intending to give up a step.

Oh?
Don't want it?
Feng Xi tilted her head and thought for a while, then said fairly and impartially:
"Then let's draw lots."

As if they had acquiesced that they would not go to Jingzhao Mansion, Feng Xi immediately ordered someone to get two bamboo sticks, held them calmly in her hands and said:
"Let's draw, whoever is short wins."

Qi Su and Xie Lian were speechless, but they also knew they couldn't escape this encounter, so they had to bite the bullet and walk in front of Feng Xi.

They were wondering who should smoke first, and which one to smoke first, but Feng Xi suddenly withdrew her hand and said:
"Wait a minute, I'll ask my consort for his opinion first."

After saying that, he looked directly at Qi Xiao beside him and said with wisdom:

"Tell me, who do you want to be tricked? I love you and help you cheat!"

Qi Xiao: "?"

Xie Lian: "?"

Qi Su: "?"

Everyone: "?"

No, you don't even know how to cover up if you want to cheat?
Seeing Qi Xiao about to speak, Qi Su, who felt that he was doomed, immediately took action, intending to seize this last opportunity.

As long as he pumped it fast enough, there was still a glimmer of hope.

Then he drew a very short one...

And Xie Lian pulled out the other long one almost the moment he pulled it out.

Qi Su: "..."

Seeing that his mother, son, and daughter looked ugly, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say:
"It was Ben Hou who was reckless just now, I wonder if the princess can give Ben Hou another chance?"

Feng Xi nodded and said that she believed in their friendship:
"Okay, isn't it just a sign, you two can be exchanged. I only care about the result, not the process."

Hearing this, Qi Su immediately raised his eyes to look at the long lottery in Xie Lian's hand, his mind was full of the other party's instigation to him.

And how could Xie Lian, who had a father on his head, a powerful maternal family, and obvious disapproval from his wife and son, ignore him?
For a moment, the two families who had just had fun with Meimei suddenly became red-eyed because of a concubine.

On the contrary, Feng Xi, who provoked everything, didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, so she made a very troublesome suggestion:
"It doesn't matter if they don't change. How about the one who wins the lottery picks a concubine to give to the one who doesn't win? How fair is it to have one for each of them?"

Qi Su: "?"

Xie Lian: "?"

Everyone: "?"

Well, fine, you know how to be fair.
