Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Pei Shijiu asked, "Do you have any impression of the Chen family, the Quchengbo Mansion on Quexi Avenue?"

There are many noble families in the capital, and the Chen family has several of them, but they are distinguished by their addresses and titles.

Qiao Lian'er thought about it. Qu Chengbo's family had also come to buy nuts, fruits, etc. from her, and they had met more than once at banquets, so she still had an impression of him. The two families were polite to each other and exchanged some polite words.

"It can be regarded as an acquaintance in the general sense."

This is why most of the high-ranking families keep to themselves and maintain a peaceful coexistence.

Soon Qiao Jianer realized that there was something strange in Pei Shijiu's words.

"Bo Mansion? I remember the Chen family on Quexi Avenue. They are a noble family with a prominent background."

She believed that Pei Shijiu was not wrong.

Pei Shijiu said slowly, "More than a month ago, a major incident occurred in the capital. When the old man from the Qucheng Marquis's mansion went to Guoqing Temple to burn incense, the abbot asked the old man to write an inscription for a meditation room. The old man from the Chen family wrote a couplet, but the problem was that the words in the couplet conflicted with the emperor's old reign title. As a result, the Chen family was severely punished and their rank was reduced from marquis to earl. The sons of the Chen family who served as officials were also demoted by two or three ranks. The family's influence was greatly reduced and it no longer had the glory it once had."

"The emperor still has an old reign title." Qiao Lianer said. Generally, emperors only use one reign title.

"Yes, but the old era name was only used for two years before it was replaced with the new era name. The current years in the new era name also include the two years of the old era name. The old era name seemed to have a bad meaning, so it was changed."

"Thirty years have passed, and many people have forgotten the old reign title. The Qucheng Marquis's Mansion didn't mean to offend, it's just bad luck."

Qiao Jian'er pondered, "Could it be that the Qucheng Marquis's Mansion harbored resentment towards the Imperial Family because of this incident, and so they didn't hesitate to collude with the enemy nation?"

He said, "I believe this is not what the old man meant. I'm afraid someone in the Chen family is acting on their own."

For Qiao Jian'er, the first thing to do is to find out the person who made the decision. As for what kind of involvement and punishment the Chen family will suffer, she has no control over it.

This was the case in ancient times. If one person committed a crime, the whole family would suffer. If it was not the old man's idea, then it was because he failed to teach and supervise properly.

"I'm going to the Chen family to see who got the letter. Tonight is the most critical night, and someone might take action."

"I'll go as well."

Qiao Jianer took the person into the space.

She put on an invisibility cloak and entered the Chen family's house unhindered. The fierce dog lying in the front yard of the Chen family noticed something, stood up and barked a few times at the air. The doorman put on his clothes and went out to see, but saw nothing.

"It's strange. I saw a ghost in the middle of the night. You beast, you are old and your eyes are blurry, your ears are deaf, and you are just screaming nonsense." He cursed and muttered to himself as he went back to the house to sleep.

The fierce dog whimpered and lay down on the ground again, looking depressed.

At this time, almost everyone in Qu Chengbo's mansion had gone to bed, except for a single lamp in the study room which was still on.

A thin figure sat under the lamp, seemingly looking at something intently, with a tall figure standing beside him.

Qiao Jianer used spatial positioning to enter the study. Under the lamp, there was a teenager of fifteen or sixteen years old. In his hand was the piece of paper with the formation written on it.

"To be on the safe side, we must send it out tonight. I believe that Khan Mayu will be very satisfied when he sees this formation."

This young man is Mr. Chen’s third legitimate son, Chen Tingxin, and the fifth child in the first wife’s family.

The informant was standing next to him. He took off his bamboo hat, revealing a square face with a full beard that was even more conspicuous.

"Fifth Young Master, if it weren't for the blockade training in Qingfeng's original fiefdom, the carrier pigeons wouldn't have needed your help. This kind of thing shouldn't be your job. After this, let's hold off for a bit. Wait until Princess Feiluan's fiefdom is unsealed, and then let those minions handle it."

"Firstly, there's no risk here. Secondly, if anything goes wrong, it will be a drama within the Qiao family army, and we can just put the blame on the Qiao family."

Chen Tingxin thought: "But the Qiao family, to be honest, has no grudges against me, and there is no feud between our two families."

"It's just that the man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure. Who can blame the princess for being able to take out something that the country of Qinu likes?"

Chen Tingxin sighed, with a kind of hypocritical reluctance in his tone.

"The higher-ups have wronged the Chen family. They've been a century-old family, and just because the old man's calligraphy clashes with an old reign title, they've suffered such a catastrophe. I'm afraid they won't be able to return to their former position for decades. At the time, all the high-ranking families in Beijing knew that the Chen family was innocent, but no one stood up to speak for them. How could the Qiao family be innocent? They had a lot of fun watching the excitement."

The informant's words hit Chen Tingxin's heart exactly.

Although he has just turned sixteen, he is known for his talent. He will definitely pass the scholar examination in this autumn, and may even pass the juren examination in next spring. Therefore, he is proud and determined to add fuel to the fire of his family's strength.

Who would have thought that after something like this happened to the old man, the royal family would be completely ruthless. The Chen family fell two levels in a row and now can't even hold their heads up in Beijing.

If that's the case, why should he still be loyal to the Daze Kingdom? He wishes the iron hoof of the Niu Kingdom would step into this land and reshuffle everything. Then, in recognition of the Chen family's merits, Zhenyou Khan would definitely make the Chen family a prominent king of a different surname.

The emperor is not innocent, all the noble families in the capital are not innocent, and of course the Qiao family is not innocent either.

Thinking of this, Chen Tingxin became more determined.

"It was Master You's words that inadvertently reminded me that the princess was able to come up with such an exquisite formation. I hope no one will sell it to a foreign country. Otherwise, it will be a great loss for the Daze Kingdom. At that time, I thought that if I wanted to surrender, I had to go to the Qiao family."

When Chen Tingxin mentioned his good friend, there was a hint of gratitude in his voice.

Master You, Pang You?

It turns out that the person who hides the deepest is you, Song Ruier.

Qiao Jian'er almost laughed out of anger. She was about to forget about Song Rui'er. Moreover, Song Lao San was dead, and Song Rui'er was left alone. She thought that he would calm down and even if he took any action, he would wait until he had grown stronger.

After all, he was restless and wanted to use other people to throw dirty water on the Qiao family. If he really bore such a stain, it would be the disaster of destroying the entire family.

All I can say is that Song Ruier has grown up. She lurks in the dark, letting others do the dirty work while he stays away from it. She is a perfect white lotus.

Chen Tingxin put his private seal on the letter, indicating that he was in charge of this matter. He had to leave his mark on such a good formation. If the Khan really saw it, he would thank him for his effort.

Give the letter to the informant.

"Send it, don't let anyone see it."
