After traveling through time, I became Han Zhang’s grandson?

On the morning of the second day, as everyone in the Sheng family was eagerly waiting, the palace gate slowly opened.

Sheng Hong left the palace under the guidance of the eunuchs.

Dong Rong from the Sheng Mansion has been waiting outside the palace gate these days, and today he finally waited for Sheng Hong to come out.

Seeing his master walking slowly towards him, Dong Rong hurried forward to greet him. Unexpectedly, as soon as he supported him, Sheng Hong's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Dong Rong and another servant were quick to support him, but he was still shaky and weak.

After returning home, Sheng Hong first paid his respects to Old Madam Sheng, and then went back to his room to wash and change his clothes.

Under the service of the lady, he drank wine and ate hot meals.

He originally wanted to have a good talk with Hualan who had returned home, but the lady of the Earl's Mansion was mean and cunning, so she hurriedly sent someone to call Hualan back after only one day and one night.

The angry wife Wang Ruofu cursed: "Our daughter is the daughter-in-law of the Yuan family, not a maid!"

Sheng Hong and Hua Lan were stopped by this and finally had to send their daughter away reluctantly.

When I returned to the house and was about to say a few words in private, I was interrupted by the three people from Linqi Pavilion.

Originally, Lin Qinshuang planned to visit Sheng Hong and file a complaint against the eldest lady, but Sheng Hong got angry first and directly told the truth about why he was imprisoned in the palace this time.

It was Sheng Changfeng who was drunk and talking nonsense, and made irresponsible remarks about the succession of the crown prince. Someone caught him and reported him to the emperor. In order to make an example of him, the emperor used Sheng Hong, a fifth-rank official, as an example.

Sheng Hong was so angry that he attacked him, kicking and beating him while cursing.

"I can't kill you, you little bastard! I'll stop you from talking nonsense, trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful, and talking too much!"

Following Lin Xiaoniang’s crying the day before, Sheng Changfeng’s crying once again spread throughout the Sheng Mansion.

"You've read so much of that book that you've almost lost your mind!"

"Drag him away and continue beating him!" Sheng Hong sat breathlessly in the main seat and ordered the servants.

Lin Qinshuang and Sheng Molan on the side pleaded for mercy, but Sheng Hong was completely scared crazy by the emperor and was determined to make Sheng Changfeng remember this lesson.

"It's better for him to die alone than to drag his whole family down with him!"

Sheng Hong's words made Lin Qinshuang feel disappointed, but Wang Ruofu looked a little proud.

However, Wang Ruofu had just made a few sarcastic remarks and wanted to expose the matter of Lin Xiaoniang secretly buying the real estate deeds when Lin Qinshuang seized the opportunity.

It was revealed that Wang Ruofu lent money at high interest to her elder sister, Kang Wangshi, to subsidize her family.

As soon as these words were spoken, Sheng Hong was completely amused. Looking at Wang Ruofu and Lin Qinshuang, Sheng Hong gritted his teeth. Why couldn't these crappy things be stopped!

"Mo'er, see, your mistress is in trouble, and your mother is also in trouble, hehe..."

The Sheng family's messy affairs had just begun. In Sheng Hong's mind, neither the eldest wife Wang Ruofu nor the concubine Lin Qinshuang were suitable to manage the Sheng family.

For this purpose, he consulted his mother, Mrs. Sheng, who suggested a candidate for housekeeper - the sixth lady Minglan.

Minglan also officially moved out of the old lady's courtyard and lived independently, and the Sheng Mansion's Mucangzhai was considered to be open.

Then two flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty.

The interesting story in Sheng's courtyard finally unfolds slowly, and Han Ming also begins to sprint for the final stage of the palace examination.

During this period, the old lady of the Yu family brought Yu Yanran, the eldest daughter of the Yu family, to visit the house several times, and from their conversations, it seemed that they were interested in marrying into the Han family.

However, the old lady of the Han family and Han Lu, who had long known Han Ming's intentions, both took the attitude of responding to his words and making false statements without giving any definite answers.

This made Old Lady Yu feel lost and melancholy, and she also secretly slandered Han Ming. If this little bastard had no intention, why would he come to provoke him?

The eldest daughter of the Yu family was weak in character, but she was not ignorant of human nature. She felt a little sad when she heard Han Lu's words without expressing her attitude.

"Could it be that Madam Han was teasing me back then in the palace?" Yu Yanran felt sad, with a hint of redness in her eyes.

Han Lu couldn't bear to see this girl like this, and secretly cursed her son in her heart: "Wait until you take the palace exam, and see how I will deal with you!"

He pretended to be kind as if nothing had happened, but afterward, he looked at the departing grandfather and grandson and whispered, "What a sin!"

Old Mrs. Han smiled and said nothing, just looking at her daughter-in-law.

Han Ming, who was squatting in Yin Yanxuan, sneezed loudly and touched his nose: "Did someone scold me? Or did someone miss me?"

Finally, he curled his lips and continued to bury himself in the sea of ​​books and poetry, writing and reading classics.

The days of studying hard always pass so quickly. One day, Han Ming was thinking about military issues on the front line by the pond in the courtyard. Jin Rui took small steps towards him and called him softly.

"Brother, brother..."

Han Ming frowned slightly, put down the book in his hand, and asked puzzledly: "What's wrong?"

"You made an appointment with the Second Young Master of the Sheng Family to have a drink at Fanlou a few days ago. He is already waiting in the front hall today."

Jin Rui couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile as she looked at her brother who was confused while reading.

"Huh? Really? I was so busy that I forgot!" Han Ming slapped his forehead.

Thinking of the appointment he had made a few days ago, he immediately got up, washed and changed his clothes, then hurried to the front hall.

I saw a tall young man sitting on a wooden chair, his eyes slightly narrowed, looking calm and composed.

"Brother Zecheng, sorry for the long wait!" Han Ming clasped his fists and bowed, feeling very apologetic.

"Forget it." Sheng Changbai held out his hand to stop the other person from speaking. "For the sake of the painting 'River Boats and Pavilions' you gave me, it's all a small matter."

"Hehehe, I knew you weren't that stingy!" Han Ming patted the other person's shoulder, and they left the Han Mansion together.

"Tell mother that I had lunch outside with the second brother of the Sheng family." Han Ming reminded Jin Rui before leaving the house.

"Don't worry, brother!" Jin Rui nodded in agreement.

"Let's go!" Han Ming called Yong Zeng and set off for Fanlou.

. . . . . .

In the private room of Fanlou, Han Ming and Sheng Changbai were toasting each other and chatting animatedly.

Suddenly, Han Ming smiled slyly: "Brother Zecheng, may I ask how is your relationship with your eldest sister?"

Sheng Changbai blinked twice and looked at Han Ming in confusion: "Of course it's fine, why are you asking this?"

"Ahem, let me ask you, what kind of person is your eldest sister?"

Han Ming's words became more and more bizarre, and even Sheng Changbai, who was a stubborn person, could sense that something was wrong.

"My eldest sister is virtuous, gentle, kind, good at managing the household, and has a dignified character. Why?"

Han Ming pretended to shake his head and sighed: "It's a pity that I met the wrong person!"

"Huh?" Sheng Changbai was completely confused.

"I heard from my mother a few days ago that Sister Hualan is not very popular in her husband's family."

"Her mother-in-law was originally partial to the first wife and was very critical of her. Furthermore, because they had not had a child for many years after their marriage, she treated her even worse."

Sheng Changbai had heard about his elder sister's situation and hoped that it was nothing serious. However, after hearing what Han Ming said today, he seemed quite unhappy and his expression darkened slightly.

"My mother always mentioned that Sister Hualan was virtuous and a good woman, but the Yuan family is not a good place."

Han Ming is still "sowing discord", "obstructing others" and "stirring up trouble".

"A few days ago, I heard that the eldest lady of the Yuan family scolded Sister Hualan, saying that she..." Han Ming didn't finish his words, which made Sheng Changbai feel uncomfortable and scratch his head.

"Jingyuan, just say whatever you want!" Sheng Changbai frowned, his face slightly gloomy.

"What Madam Yuan said is really insulting, so I'd better not tell you about it." Han Ming pretended to be concerned and waved his hand.

"Jingyuan, we are friends, so why can't we talk about it? I don't blame you, but you can talk about it."

Sheng Changbai finally fell into the trap.

"She said...she said...that Sister Hualan couldn't give birth to a boy, and was even worse than a hen laying eggs in the fields."

As soon as Han Ming said this, Sheng Changbai's face became gloomy and terrifying, and he drank glass after glass of wine with an expressionless face.

"Who told you this?" Sheng Changbai calmed down and asked.

"It's been widely circulated among the women in the capital. If you don't believe it, you can ask around."

Han Ming was confident of victory, after all, the story was true, but he laid too much groundwork in the beginning, using Hualan's virtue to contrast with Madam Yuan's harshness, and step by step to provoke Sheng Changbai's anger.

"e=(′o｀*)))Alas! Poor elder sister, she met the wrong person!" Changbai finally met Han Ming's requirements.

"It's your Sheng family's business. As a man from outside the family, it's difficult for me to speak up. But the eldest lady of the Yuan family is really going too far."

"I am good friends with Sister Hualan and you, so how can I not give you frank advice..." Han Ming increased his intensity.

"Jingyuan has a righteous heart, I know that, it's okay." Sheng Changbai waved his hand and didn't mind.

"Sister Hualan is the legitimate daughter of the Sheng family after all. Although the Yuan family is an earl's mansion, they don't follow family etiquette, which has led to such a situation. What a pity."

Han Ming continued to act pretentiously.

"I want to go home and talk to my father to see how to solve the problem." Sheng Changbai's words hit Han Ming's heart.

"Don't accuse me of meddling in other people's business. I think the Yuan family and the Sheng family are a little different after all. If I force myself to take the lead, I'm afraid Sister Hualan's life will be even more difficult."

In order to advance by retreating, Han Ming is now putting all his thoughts into it, just to make Hua Lan suffer less.

"What should we do then?" Sheng Changbai finally asked the key question.

"I once heard my mother tell a story about a hunter who always kept his eyes on a fox, hoping to get the best skin."

"The two sides fought for several years, and then the fox came up with a solution. Can you guess what it was?"

At this moment, Han Ming was just like the fox, smiling cunningly.

"I don't know..." Sheng Changbai thought thoughtfully.

"It finds a rare white fox and then parades it in front of the hunter."

"Since then, the hunter's mindset has changed drastically. He gave up on the fox and turned to pursuing the rare white fox."

As soon as Han Ming finished speaking, Sheng Changbai's pupils shrank and he reacted.

"What a great trick!" Sheng Changbai slapped his thigh and said, "So how do we do it specifically?"

"You might as well tell this story to your sixth sister. I think she's very perceptive and will know what to do."

Han Ming was as cunning as a fox and escaped easily.
