The more Wen Xianglian thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt.

When Mrs. Jiao asked her to kneel down and serve, she just said a few words and left with her sleeves swung.

She has now got Young Master Jiao under her control, so she won't serve him anymore.

This also made Mrs. Jiao very angry.

He wanted to have Wen Xianglian captured and severely punished, but he was stopped by Young Master Jiao who arrived.

At first, Young Master Jiao was still coaxing his mother.

But Mrs. Jiao insisted on punishing Wen Xianglian, so he got angry.

After a big quarrel with his mother, he took Wen Xianglian back to his own yard.

Now Wen Xianglian is his ancestor. What if he is punished and not given the Hibiscus Cream?

This also made Mrs. Jiao sick with anger.

Because of this incident, Wen Xianglian also tested the bottom line of the Jiao family.

Relying on the support of Young Master Jiao, he no longer takes Madam Jiao seriously in the Jiao Mansion.

As for the people from other rooms, you can treat them however you want.

He was even more disrespectful to his sister-in-law and even took the initiative to seize the power of housekeeper.

Young Master Jiao was weak and sickly when he was young, and he was good at coaxing people, so he was the apple of the eye of the old lady and Mrs. Jiao.

Wen Xianglian was restless and acted like a demon. Every time the two wanted to punish her, Young Master Jiao would jump out to protect her.

Once, the two of them were so angry that they even wanted to punish Young Master Jiao.

Who knew that Young Master Jiao's emotions would fluctuate so much that he would lose control and suddenly fall to the ground and twitch.

Young Master Jiao suffered from epilepsy when he was a child, but after being treated by the imperial physician, he only had seizures occasionally as he grew up.

Now seeing him fall ill, they were very scared and immediately went to call the court doctor, feeling even more distressed.

What is even more incomprehensible is how an old woman like Wen Xianglian could be so charming to her grandson/son who has been through so many beautiful women.

They simply couldn't see what was good about Wen Xianglian, and instead found her disgusting.

From then on, every time they wanted to scold or punish Wen Xianglian, Young Master Jiao would have an attack.

They felt sorry for their grandson/son, so they could only turn a blind eye to Wen Xianglian's behavior.

They all thought in their hearts that when their grandchildren/sons get tired of this bitch, they would make her suffer.

After hearing this, Qiao Ye could no longer feel sympathy for Jiao Fu.

It is true that Mrs. Jiao has a very bad character. She indulges her son in bullying men and women and doing a lot of bad things.

Now that Wen Xianglian has tortured him like that, all he can say is that he deserves it and that he reaps what he sows.

The next step is to make arrangements for Lu Shao.

The emperor ignored the disputes among the other groups.

According to convention, the top three students in the first class were arranged into the Hanlin Academy.

The Hanlin Academy is a place for gilding. If one wants to enter the cabinet in the future, this is the place one must go.

So it is obvious that the emperor values ​​Lu Shao very much.

Before joining the job, scholars like Lu Shao, whose families live in other places, have a one-month home visit leave.

That is to allow them to return home in glory to worship their ancestors.

Lu Shao and Qiao Ye have already packed up and are ready to take the Lu family back to Mayu County in two days.

And just before they left Beijing.

In a restaurant, the Fifth Prince's close associates were sitting in an inner room discussing matters.

As they were talking, they mentioned Lu Shao and his wife.

Most people believed that if Lu Shao was allowed to grow up, it would be very disadvantageous to their department.

Although Lu Shao did not have a clear preference for the Crown Prince, he had an undisguised good relationship with the Seventh Prince.

Just based on this relationship, I'm afraid that he will be biased towards the prince in the future.

Everyone discussed how to suppress Lu Shao in the future.

The Eighth Prince suddenly said, "Pressure is not the best way."

"When Lu Shao was still a juren, we wanted to suppress him and his wife, but we failed, didn't we?"

The fifth prince thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have a good idea?"

The Eighth Prince nodded to the Fifth Prince.

There was a rare stern look on his face. "The best way is to cut the weeds at their roots."

These words stunned the Fifth Prince and others.

The fifth prince frowned, "Do you mean to get rid of Lu Shao directly?"

The Eighth Prince replied: "Yes, only the dead are not a threat."

"And it's not just Lu Shao, Qiao Ye has to be eliminated as well."

"If it weren't for her, how could the prince have returned alive from Qiongzhou?"

"Now the Crown Prince and the Seventh Old Man are singing the same tune and helping Qiao Ye to be crowned as the County Lady."

"They must have been in the same boat behind the scenes for a long time."

"If the prince has Qiao Ye's help, will he still worry about money?"

"And Lu Shao can't be underestimated. He's also quite evil."

"Not only does he always get first place in the exam, but he also has a wide network of contacts after coming to the capital."

"Many of the arrogant young men from aristocratic families are on good terms with him, and it's not because he has Jiang Yilin's support behind him."

"I heard that he has a very good reputation among students and children of noble families. He is a very scheming person."

"Plus, the emperor now attaches great importance to Lu Shao. Once such a person grows up, he will be of great help to the crown prince."

These were his real thoughts. Both Qiao Ye and Lu Shao gave him a weird and disturbing feeling.

"So I suggest that we just..."

He didn't say the last words, but made a gesture of wiping his neck.

After hearing what he said, the people from the Fifth Prince's faction knew that it was the truth.

The Lu Shao couple posed a considerable threat to them.

Although Qiao Ye is a golden child, Lu Shao is not a simple person either.

One of the staff members said, "But Lu Shao and his wife are no longer the same as they used to be. It won't be easy to kill them."

"The most important thing is that if we kill them, it will definitely attract the attention of His Majesty, who will have him investigate the matter thoroughly."

"If we are found out, we will be in big trouble."

But another person said: "We don't have to do it directly. We can hire a killer to do it."

"And then frame the matter on the traitors."

"Qiao Ye had offended the rebels before and was hunted down. Now it is normal for them to die under the swords of the rebels."

Then the Fifth Prince's men split into two factions, one faction did not support the killing, while the other strongly demanded that Lu Shao and his wife be killed.

After all, Lu Shao's return home to visit his relatives is the best opportunity to make a move.

The fifth prince was a little hesitant. He also felt that Lu Shao and his wife were a nuisance and an obstacle.

But if he wanted to kill the person directly, he was afraid that he would be traced back to himself.

Song Shaoyang, who had been silent, said, "I object."

"Lu Shao and his wife cannot die."

He has been very depressed lately.

Being suppressed by Lu Shao was quite a blow to him.

After all, he started to learn at the age of three and had been taught by famous teachers since childhood. His grandfather was a Jinshi and his father was once the top scorer in the palace examination.

My family has been a scholarly family since the previous dynasty, and they have a large collection of rare books and a deep cultural heritage.

He grew up immersed in books.

Since he was young, he was taught by his grandfather and father, and later he entered the best academy in the capital.

His grandfather also invited a great scholar who was as knowledgeable as Qin Ru to be his teacher.

He has been studying very hard over the years and has never slacked off.

Lu Shao started to learn late, and his teachers before he met Qin Daru were not up to par, and he had no family background at all.

I only studied under Qin Daru for one or two years.

He was not convinced before, so he went to see the exam papers of Lu Shaozhong, the first and second place winners.

After reading it, I felt very uncomfortable. Although I don't want to admit it, it is indeed more down-to-earth than his article.

This is even more unpleasant.

Although he hated Lu Shao, he would applaud if he was killed.

But he felt that it was stupid for them to come and kill him.

After hearing what Song Shaoyang said, the Eighth Prince couldn't help but sneer, "Shaoyang, you have really fallen too much recently."

"Bewitched by Qiao Ye and suppressed by the love rival."

"You actually want to speak for them. I can't help but wonder if you have been won over by Old Seven."

"Don't let Qiao Ye make you lose your former decisiveness and wisdom."

He further emphasized, "Don't forget which side you are on."

This made those who supported the Eighth Prince speak up one after another: "Yes, Mr. Song, don't be soft-hearted for a woman and be completely bewitched and lose your judgment..."
