Inside the Murong Mansion, Murong Jing, the Minister of War, angrily declared, "That Chen Er is a bastard. How on earth did that old fellow, Chen Zhili, teach his grandson? Everyone in the capital praises the Chen family for their respect for rules. Humph, I think that's pure bullshit. If he could raise such a bad kid, I don't think that old fellow is much better."

Murong Jing turned around and said to his daughter Murong Xi: "Don't be afraid, my daughter. Daddy will find a reason to go to the emperor tomorrow to impeach their family for daring to bully my precious daughter."

Upon hearing this, Madam Murong was so angry that she was shaking all over. Her eyebrows were raised and she said indignantly: "Daughter, I will go to your aunt tomorrow to reminisce about the past."

At this time, Murong Xi hurriedly stepped forward to comfort them: "Dad, Mom, don't be angry, be careful not to hurt yourself, someone has already taught this bastard a lesson for me," and then Murong Xi recounted the good things Su Yu had done.

After listening to their daughter's narration, the anger on Murong Jing and Mrs. Murong's faces eased a little. It was really satisfying to take revenge on the spot.

But when mentioning her daughter's savior Su Yu, Mrs. Murong said: "But my daughter, this eldest son of the Su family has not been favored by his father since he was young, and his reputation is very bad. I heard from outsiders that he often stays overnight in brothels and is lazy in his studies. I heard that he has been expelled from the academy by the teacher."

"Are you sure that the person who saved you was Su Yu? Did you hear it wrong?" Mrs. Murong still didn't believe that the uneducated Su Yu saved her daughter.

Murong Xi retorted to her mother's words dissatisfiedly, "How could I have heard it wrong? Her sister was also kidnapped by that Second Young Master Chen today. Her sister's name is Su Wanwan, and Young Master Su is not as terrible as the rumors say."

Murong Xi thought to herself that Master Su was not only not unbearable, but was actually very handsome.

Mrs. Murong frowned and thought for a while before saying, "That's right. Mrs. Su gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. The daughter is named Su Wanwan, so she didn't recognize the wrong person."

Mrs. Murong said: "Then we must send someone to prepare a valuable gift to express our gratitude."

Murong Xi also agreed at this time and said: "Mom is right."

On the other side, in the Jiang Mansion, the atmosphere was equally solemn. The Minister of Rites, Jiang Shu, sat on the armchair in the main hall. Although his face did not show a furious expression, his gloomy face, like a dark cloud, still showed his extreme displeasure.

Jiang Shu subconsciously rubbed the smooth jade ring in his hand and said in a cold voice, "Dad, look at this Minister of Revenue, Chen Zheyuan. His career has been too smooth these years. For so many years, he has been relying on his father, Chen Zhili, who is the Minister of Revenue, to bully others and bully others.

"Humph, in fact, when it comes down to it, this guy has no real talent or knowledge at all, he is just a paper tiger with a strong appearance but a weak inside." After saying this, he slapped the armrest of the chair heavily to express his disdain.

Then, Jiang Shu turned to look at his daughter Jiang Li, who was standing beside him with a look of grievance on her face.

He assured her in a firm tone: "My dear daughter, don't worry. Although Daddy doesn't like to stir up trouble, this time it was the Chen family who took the initiative to provoke our Jiang family. Daddy will never give up easily, and will not let my precious daughter suffer such humiliation and grievance in vain."

At this time, Mrs. Jiang who was standing aside was also full of indignation, and she echoed: "That's right, they are really blind. They dare to be so arrogant and domineering to bully our Jiang family. Master, we must not let this matter go. We must teach them a lesson."

After saying this, Madam Jiang turned her gaze to her daughter and asked with concern, "By the way, Li'er, I just heard that the young man who saved you was named Su Yu. I wonder if he is the Su family member from the capital?"

Jiang Li nodded slightly and responded softly, "Mother, I don't know much about it. I only know that this Mr. Su seems to have a younger sister named Su Wanwan."

Mrs. Jiang said: "That's right, it's Su Yu, the eldest son of the Su family in the capital and the great-grandson of Master Zhao."

Jiang Li was not aware of the Su family's affairs. She said with a little surprise, "Mr. Su is actually the great-grandson of Taifu Zhao? But why haven't I seen him in the capital?"

Jiang Li thought that if he had only met such a graceful young man once, it would be difficult to forget him.

Mrs. Jiang said: "My daughter, you don't know, the Su family favors concubines over wives, and has sent the mistress of the house to the farm in Taohua County for almost ten years. The Su family's two legitimate children also went to the farm with them. Now the Su family in the capital is headed by a concubine, so any family with some status in the capital will not deal with them."

Jiang Li's pretty face was full of pity. She sighed softly and said, "I didn't know that Mr. Su had such a hard life since childhood."

When Madam Jiang saw her daughter like this, she quickly comforted her, "Don't be sad, my dear daughter. The Su family in the capital is indeed not very kind. Mother will definitely prepare a generous gift for Su Yu as a token of our Jiang family's care."

At this point, Mrs. Jiang's expression changed slightly, and she snorted coldly: "As for the Chen family, humph, they dared to do this. Our Jiang family will never let it go. We will settle this account with them sooner or later."

At this moment, Minister Chen was still completely unaware of this matter. He never imagined that his son had unknowingly and silently provoked two powerful figures into their family.

Not long after, Song Yan, the commander of the Five Cities Military Division, received news from the Jiang family and the Murong family.

The two families told him at the same time that their lost little daughters had been found safely. After hearing this good news, Song Yan's heart finally settled down, and he secretly felt fortunate that his official hat was at least kept.

However, what made Song Yan feel embarrassed was that the two families actually made a request to him at the same time, that is, he must not help the Chen family to conceal the affairs of the Second Young Master Chen.

In fact, Song Yan didn't need to weigh the pros and cons too much. Song Yan knew very well that everyone in the Princess's Mansion knew about this. It was impossible for their Chen family to keep this secret.

So on the next morning, the news that Chen Zhenglin, the grandson of the Minister of Revenue, was fond of men and had sex with four men in one night spread quickly in the capital. Not only the nobles, but even the ordinary people knew about it.

This news was so explosive that it soon became the talk of the town in all kinds of teahouses, taverns, and brothels. What made the people talk about it even more was that this nobleman was the one being pinned down by the male servant.

Some gossipers added some details to the story as topics of conversation, which made everyone laugh.

Of course, this matter was soon reported to Minister Chen. He gritted his teeth and roared angrily to the people below: "Hurry up and bring that rebellious son back to me. I will come back to deal with him personally."

Having said that, he put on his official hat and strode away. When he attended the morning court, he thought that this was just a family matter at most, and he would go back and take care of the rebellious son when the time came.

But he didn't expect that when he arrived at the council hall, all the officials started pointing fingers at him and saying that he was not a good parent, which made him lose face.

Chen Zhili, the Minister of Revenue, was even more confused. He came early today and didn't know about his grandson Chen Zhenglin. But after arriving, all the officials stayed away from him and talked about something secretly.

He said that his second grandson Chen Zhenglin loved male homosexuality and that he did not know how to educate his descendants. He was just about to turn around and ask about his late son, but the emperor had already arrived.

"Your Majesty, we respectfully welcome you," all the ministers bowed together.

"My dear ministers, please stand up," the emperor said majestically.

The emperor looked at the people below and said, "My dear ministers, do you have anything to report to me today?"
