He didn't rest after returning home, so he changed his official uniform and went to court.

I don't know if it's to test her, or Xu Pu has really accepted her as the Xu family's wife, but Xu Pu actually arranged a task for Li Shi: to persuade Fang Yuanzhi.

Lee adopted a roundabout strategy.

"Miss Fang, it will be the anniversary of my father's death in a few days, and there will probably be quite a few people who will come to express their condolences. I would like to invite you to Li's mansion as a guest, and by the way, meet the ladies in the capital."

Fang Yuanzhi refused without even thinking about it: "Thank you for your kindness, Auntie, Yuanzhi is not feeling well, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go."

Every time she went out recently, she caused a lot of troubles, which made her afraid to go out.

Li knew that she had no friendship with Fang Yuanzhi, so it was unlikely that she could be moved.

Mrs. Li smiled meaningfully: "It's about the third master of the Xu family, otherwise I wouldn't be shy and make this presumptuous invitation."

Seeing that Fang Yuanzhi was unmoved, she said: "Miss Yuanzhi probably doesn't know yet, because of you, the court has fallen into trouble these days!"

Fang Yuanzhi was surprised: "What does Chaotang have to do with me?"

"Since Ms. Yuanzhi made a big fuss in the Huichanghou Mansion a few days ago, the next day, in the early court, there were a large number of memorials proposing to improve the salt administration, bluntly saying that the supervision and management of the Ministry of Households was unfavorable, and the salt administration was abolished, so that the opening of the nine sides was unfavorable, and the army Food and grass run out!"

"Wait a minute, what does my disturbance have to do with the officials' memorial?"

Mrs. Sun looked at Mrs. Jiang at the side complicatedly, and then at Fang Yuanzhi who was confused:
"The Xu family made their fortune in the salt industry. For the sake of third master Xu and Yuan Zhi's marriage, the Xu family threw out the entire salt industry!
Nowadays, the only one who can quickly and accurately point out the shortcomings of the salt administration is the Xu family!

The Minister of the Household Department, Ma Ang, started his business by relying on the Huichang Hou Mansion, a hard-core relative party, and the pocketbook of the Sun family!

With the current court turmoil, Yuan Zhi still wants to say that it has nothing to do with you? ! "

Yuan Zhi had to give Sun a high look, the two were about the same age, but Sun knew everything about government affairs, how could she be an ordinary woman who was content in the back house? !

However, she didn't know about it, so how could it be said that it had something to do with her?
"Auntie praised Yuan Zhi too much. This matter has nothing to do with me."

"This matter was planned and arranged by the second master of the Xu family, and my uncle also participated. The second master just saw that the Huichang Hou Mansion was bullying Yuan Zhi, so he started ahead of time!"

Fang Yuanzhi was stunned.

Since the scandal about her spread widely, she has never had any contact with the Xu family.

Xu Chun also has no news.

The Xu family can do this for her?
She couldn't believe it.

She has never seen Xu Xuan, the second master of the Xu family.

Will he stand up for himself?
Seeing Fang Yuanzhi's eyes flickering, Mrs. Li hesitated, and said: "The words of a woman from the back house are so insignificant, it's unbelievable. In a few days, many guests from my natal family will be present, and Yuan Zhi will know the truth when they hear it."

Fang Yuanzhi was silent for a while before saying: "It's really that Yuanzhi has been unlucky lately, causing troubles every time she goes out, so she doesn't dare to go out anymore..."

Li Shi covered her mouth and smiled: "The Li family will certainly not have any ill intentions towards Yuan Zhihuai, please rest assured Yuan Zhi."

Fang Yuanzhi hesitated again and again, but still agreed.

Mrs. Li came to invite her pregnant, and tried her best to invite her, so she must have some plans for her.

She'd better take a look first.

She is a boudoir woman whose reputation has been ruined. Her family title has been deprived, her father is only a small family, and her family is not rich. What is there for others to seek?
If there is one, there is only Xu Chun who wants to marry her.

Fang Yuanzhi's heart felt as uncomfortable as if a big stone had been stuffed into it.

If she and Xu Chun were on good terms when they were in Suzhou last year, now, she is the one who is the one who is the one who is making the most of Xu Chun.

A woman with a ruined reputation.Their family didn't make much progress this year, and instead they were thrown into trouble by their family friends.

On the contrary, it was the Xu family, who successfully joined the emperor this year, Xu Chun also became an official, and the salt industry and the Yueyue League, which always caused people's lives, were also thrown out.

Now Xu Chun is a sweet potato, and he will be looked at by people wherever he goes.

As for her, she offended Huichanghou's mansion not long after entering Beijing, and the Empress Dowager Zhou's natal family, which she could have relied on, has now turned against her family.

Typical troublemaker.

If she were Xu Pu, she wouldn't want her right-hand man, cousin Xu Chun, to marry such an unclean woman who ruined her reputation and caused trouble.

This is not marrying a wife, this is obviously bringing disaster to the family.

His own father, Fang Li, is innocent, so he should recognize his own flesh and blood.

But he, Xu Chun, has no matchmaker or employment with him, so he can completely break up with him.

Why hang on to your own tree alone?
Thinking of this, Fang Yuanzhi felt sore in his heart.

All she can have is the bits and pieces of memories that Jun Xin gave her.

Thinking about this point clearly, Fang Yuanzhi calmly went to attend the anniversary of Li Xiange's death on the th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Dressed in plain clothes, Fang Yuanzhi followed Xu Pu's stepwife, Li Shi, to the mourning hall first to pay homage.

There were two men who knelt down and thanked each other, one was middle-aged and the other was younger, Fang Yuanzhi had a slight impression.

She met Li Xian's second son, Li Jie, at the ancestor's birthday banquet last year.

Presumably the older one is Li Xian's eldest son, Li Zhang.

After the worship, Li Shi and Fang Yuanzhi were led out of the house and were about to be taken to the reception area for the female relatives.

When she was leaving the mourning hall, she saw a group of men approaching without saying a word, stepping into the mourning hall one after another.

This group of people is older, all of them are old men with long beards and gray beards.

Among them, Fang Yuanzhi knew only one person, and that was Shang Ren, who was already the left servant of the Ministry of War and a cabinet scholar.

Shang Ren glanced over Fang Yuanzhi lightly and did not stop.

Fang Yuanzhi also pretended not to know each other and did not respond.

After the group of people had entered the mourning hall, Fang Yuanzhi lowered his head and followed Mrs. Li to leave.

"stop!"

As he was walking, another group of pedestrians passed by beside him, and someone shouted in a low voice.

Hearing the familiar voice, Fang Yuanzhi secretly thought it was bad!

It's really a narrow road to Yuanjia, why did I meet Sun Zan here!

Fang Yuanzhi planned to pretend not to hear, and continued to follow Li with his head down.

But someone stopped her.

"Miss Fang really has a lot of friends, even Li Ge's hometown is old! I underestimated your Fang family!"

Fang Yuanzhi saw that the person blocking him was a man dressed as a follower, and Sun Zan led a group of people standing not far from him.

Seeing that there were many people here, she didn't want to defend herself, she just wanted to escape from the side.

The attendant didn't let her go, but just blocked her way.

Fang Yuanzhi complied, and blessed Sun Zan from a distance, and said, "Little girl grew up in the countryside, rough and shallow, if you offend Mrs. Sun, please also please Haihan.

I hope that my lord will hold your hand high, and don't embarrass me, a weak woman who has nothing to rely on. "

Sun Zan sneered, looked left and right and laughed, "A person who can catch ten arrows with his bare hands, and who can shoot through iron doors with thrown arrows, can be called a weak woman?!"

The people around laughed in agreement.Just because it was outside the mourning hall, no one dared to laugh out loud.

At this time, Li Jie, the filial son who was waiting for the guests in the mourning hall, came out. He first saluted Sun Zan, and then made an invitation gesture to invite Sun Zan into the mourning hall.

The people who followed Li Jie surrounded Sun Zan's followers who blocked Fang Yuanzhi, and Fang Yuanzhi escaped smoothly.
