Twin Brocade

Chapter 186 Ambition
But Quan Moxian didn't find it funny at all, put down the book in his hand, applauded lightly, and said: "Young brother Changqing is so ambitious!"

Peng Changsheng scratched the itchy wound on his hand, and said with a shy face, "You said, if I become an important minister like Master Zhu, no one would dare to bully me, right?"

Quan Moxian laughed dumbfounded, this Peng Changsheng, could it be that his aura just now was just his own illusion? "Master Zhu is a person who stomps his feet and shakes the hall. If you can sit in that position, even Lord Hou will have to curry favor with you."

"Okay!" Peng Changsheng was fascinated by the prospect he painted, and he danced and said, "Then it's settled, I must sit in that seat."

Young people are always full of vigor, not knowing the thorns and ups and downs ahead.

Quan Moxian looked at him, and couldn't bear to poke him, so he simply let him go.People have to have ambitions, such ambitions are better than being decadent for a woman, right?
"However, the most urgent task right now is to clarify the rumors." Peng Changsheng, who had set his ambition, still couldn't let go of Mu Di.He didn't have the blessing to marry her, and he couldn't bear to see her being slandered by rumors.

"I haven't come up with any good ideas after much deliberation, please teach me, Brother Quan." Peng Changsheng sincerely asked for advice.

Regarding this matter, Quan Moxian also thought about it, pondered for a moment and said: "The so-called rumors are rumors that spread between people's ears. We can't reverse it with our own efforts, unless..."

"Unless what?" Peng Changsheng asked eagerly.

"Unless you give out a rumor, people would like to hear it more." Quan Moxian said with a smile, "Let me ask you, do you want to clean up the Fang family's reputation, or are you just complaining for Miss Di?"

"This time the rumors came so fast, I think it's a little strange." Peng Changsheng looked puzzled, and said: "Just clear the name of Miss Di, and don't care about others."

Quan Moxian was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Peng Changsheng, who was always known as a nerd, could see through the mystery behind this rumor.

That's right, he was also feeling weird, so he deliberately inquired about the news related to the Fang family, and learned about the changes in the Imperial Academy.Coincidentally, Fang Jinshu's father was one of the eight candidates.

Although he was in Songxi Academy, he paid attention to the news of the imperial court in the capital and observed the doorway.

He firmly believes that if there is an effect, there must be a cause, and if too many coincidences are put together, it becomes inevitable.Behind this rumor, it was Fang Shuyu's competitors who were fueling the flames.

"If it's just like this, it's easy." He smiled and said, "Come here with your ears."

After he finished speaking in Peng Changsheng's ear, Peng Changsheng jumped on the spot twice excitedly: "Brother Quan, what a great idea, you really have it!" shouted.

So, on the second day, there was another eclectic version of the rumors about the Fang family in the capital.This version was more in line with the public's guesses and expectations of the Hou Mansion, and it spread within a day.

When Cui Sheng came back from hunting, he heard exactly such rumors.

He was so angry that day that he didn't even go back to Luoyang City, so he led people around the small path and rushed into Beimang Mountain to hunt.

Fearing that something might happen to him, the long follower who followed him hurriedly sent one person back to the mansion, and invited his confidant Lu Heng to bring a team of guards to help.Lu Heng has a mysterious background, but he is loyal to Cui Sheng.With him guarding them, they wandered the mountains for two days without any loss and even caught a lot of prey.

Seeing that Cui Sheng was not very interested, Lu Heng simply persuaded him to live in the Zhuangzi outside for a few more days.

Cooked and ate all the wild game that was caught, and kept the ones that didn't hurt the fur, and prepared to go back home to make the wives happy.The rest of the useless ones were rewarded to Zhuangtou, and the people on Zhuangzi were very happy.

After the anger in his heart was almost dissipated, the group of people returned to Beijing with their furs.

I never thought that I heard such news before my butt was hot.

In front of him, a beautiful girl cried pear blossoms and rained, and said: "Officer, you have to be the master of the slave family. It is said in the market that the slave family is jealous of the beauty of the Fang family's lady, and wants to murder her!"

"What rumors, why don't I know?" He took a sip of tea and asked with a frown.

This beautiful girl is called Jiao'er, and she was the head of Ningxianglou, the largest brothel in Beijing back then.In order to accept her into the mansion, Cui Sheng also made a big fuss.

She is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, singing and dancing, and has been favored by Cui Sheng since entering the mansion, until today.

Listening to his questioning, Jiao'er cried even more sadly, and she fell into his arms, sobbing and said: "You just returned to Beijing, officer, so you don't know. It's all spread outside!"

At this time, there was a sound of unhurried footsteps outside the door. Cui Sheng's wife, Mrs. Zheng, appeared at the door. Looking at the two who were tired of being together, she said calmly, "My husband is back? It seems that I was worrying too much. "

After all, he turned around and wanted to leave.

"Stop!" Cui Sheng said, "What are you worrying about, please tell me what is going on with this rumor."

The Zheng family is the daughter of the Zheng family in Xianyang, and their marriage back then was also a combination of interests between the Cui family of Boling and the Zheng family of Xianyang.The two didn't have any relationship at first, and Cui Sheng was always messing around, and there was no harmony after marriage.

However, Cui Sheng also knew in his heart that if he wanted to know the whole story of the rumors, Jiao'er could not be counted on, and he still had to count on the official wife who came from a family.

Zheng's face glanced at him indifferently, Cui Sheng quickly pushed Jiaoer away, straightened his clothes, cleared his cough, and said, "Okay, you know something, you can talk about it."

Seeing him like this, Mrs. Zheng walked into the room slowly, sat down gracefully, and told all the rumors from the beginning of the rumor to the latest rumor.

"Oh!"

Cui Sheng slapped the table suddenly, even the hard wenge wood couldn't bear the force of his palm, and cracked a few fine lines. "It's clear that someone wants to clean up the Fang family's reputation, so they put it all on me."

"That concubine dares to ask my husband, are you really not tempted by the flute girl from the other party's family?" Zheng Shi asked coolly.

"This..." Cui Sheng frowned.

"One more question, did your husband accept her date of birth?"

"..." Cui Sheng did something unreasonable about this matter.He hadn't informed Zheng about the matter of accepting a good concubine, but when she asked her about it, he knew he was wrong and had nothing to say.

"Since it's all the truth, the concubine has nothing to say." Mrs. Zheng looked at Cui Sheng with the words "self-inflicted and self-inflicted".

"Then you can't arrange my back house indiscriminately because you want to clear the Fang family's reputation?" Cui Sheng said angrily, "I still treat the Fang family as noble, so that's how it is!"

"Fang Zhe is just a puddle of mud, and Fang Mu looks insidious and cunning right now." Relying on his status as a young master, he commented wantonly on the two of them.

Zheng Shi gave him a look, as if looking at an idiot.
