Chapter 1225

The Wen family in Qincheng, Ganzhou, was the old lady's family, and was also considered a local powerful family. Especially after Wen Ruqin married into the Marquis of Jian'an Mansion and became the mistress of the mansion, the Wen family's fortune was at its peak.

At that time, Madam Wen Ruqin was good at saving face and making a scene. She once had the final say in the Marquis' Mansion and made it difficult for the eldest son born to the late wife to move forward. The members of the Wen family had also heard about this and everyone knew that she was very capable.

The couple of Jian'an Houye went to the underworld hand in hand, which also became a legend in Ganzhou. Everyone who heard it would say, "It's a match made in heaven, a song that is worth singing and crying!"

There was even a local opera troupe that rehearsed a new play "Dielianhua" overnight, in which the male role was directly named Shi Qingxiang and the female role was named Wen Ruqin.

The love between the hero and heroine in the play is so intense that it makes people cry. They can die together, so shouldn't it be "you are the butterfly and I am the flower"?

The folk storybook is also known as "If I die, the Marquis will not live alone", with a happy ending. The two will be locked together for life and will never harm others... Oh, wrong, they will never miss each other.

Shi Chengxuan brought a bunch of concubines and children to Ganzhou to visit relatives, which really shocked the Wen family.

In Shi Chengxuan's words, "When my mother died, she left a will asking me to bring my whole family to Ganzhou to live for her for a while, to see the world, and to let her grandchildren know more about the place where their grandmother grew up. This is also a way to repay Ganzhou, the land that raised her, and to repay the Wen family for raising her."

Shi Chengxuan thought carefully on the way and recited these words over and over again.

He always felt that he had done this somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where.

Anyway, no matter what, the Wen family welcomed Shi Chengxuan and others from the capital with the highest etiquette, and even used a house on the best road in Qincheng to accommodate the whole family.

This house was originally purchased by the Wen family specifically to receive distinguished guests and manage relationships, so there are usually people here to take care of the garden.

Now, no one in the Wen family knows that Shi Chengxuan has divorced the eldest daughter of the Duke of Huguo, and no one knows that Shi Chengxuan, the father, was driven from the capital to Ganzhou by his daughter.

They only knew that Wen Ruqin's marriage to Marquis Jian'an really brought honor to the Wen family. In the local area, as long as the name of Marquis Jian'an's Mansion was mentioned, things would basically work.

Shi Chengxuan's eldest son, Shi Yunqi, is now the prince of Jian'an Marquis's Mansion, and will be the future heir to the title.

Due to Shi Chengxuan's boasting, the Wen family also learned that the famous Princess Haiyan in the capital was his daughter Shi Anxia.

From what Shi Chengxuan said, it was just short of saying that Emperor Mingde wanted to be his sworn brother. He and Emperor Mingde had a very good relationship, closer than brothers. Emperor Mingde often invited him to the palace to play chess and drink with him.

Sometimes he would come to the palace, and sometimes Emperor Mingde would go out of the palace in disguise to find him. Anyway, he was the emperor's favorite.

When Shi Chengxuan was drinking and in high spirits, he would reveal some gossip. He would slap the table, point at a circle of people and say, "All of you here are my Shi Chengxuan's relatives, all of you are my family. I didn't want to say this originally, keep it a secret! It has to be kept a secret! Hey, I'd better not say it!"

So all the Wen family members started to flatter him and made him dizzy.

Shi Chengxuan likes the feeling of being the center of attention, and likes everyone to be around him. He is so good at lying that even the cows in the sky are flying around in confusion. "This time I came to Ganzhou, but actually I came here to inspect Ganzhou on the order of the emperor. You really have to keep it a secret and don't tell anyone..."

From then on, Shi Chengxuan walked around the Wen family like a duck in water, and no one dared to offend him. No, not only the Wen family, but the entire Ganzhou Qincheng, he was like a fish in water.

The prefect of Ganzhou had invited him to his house for drinks several times in an effort to build a closer relationship with him.
