The birthday party of the prime minister’s wife would certainly not be a simple one.

Meng Lianshu seemed to attach great importance to this birthday as well. She started preparing invitations to each family a month in advance and also had people decorate her house.

Originally, this had nothing to do with Jiang Wansang. After all, with her current relationship with the Prime Minister's Mansion, Meng Lianshu should be worried that she would ruin her birthday party.

But unexpectedly, the servants of the mansion came to Tingsang Pavilion with some things, saying that they were instructed by the lady to decorate this place as well.

Because of Jiang Wansang's methods, Tingsang Pavilion has almost become an independent existence in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and even the servants dare not have any contact with each other openly.

So the servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion stood cautiously at the door with a lot of things, and no one dared to take the initiative to break into Tingsang Pavilion.

The weasel is sending New Year greetings to the rooster, which is not a good idea!

They had not been allowed to celebrate together for years, and Jiang Wansang didn't believe that Meng Lianshu would be so kind as to let Ting Sangge attend her birthday party.

She didn't ask anyone to check the things the servants brought, but simply closed the door and didn't let anyone in.

She has been busy with Thirteen Shadow's affairs recently and doesn't have the energy to clean up the garbage in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Although Jiang Wansang did not allow people from the Prime Minister's Mansion to enter Tingsang Pavilion, she knew that Meng Lianshu would definitely not give up, so she asked Zheliu to pay more attention to the situation in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Unexpectedly, there was no movement in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but news came from Jiang Er.

When Meng Lianshu sent invitations to each family, he specifically asked someone to add a sentence, saying that when attending the birthday banquet at the Prime Minister's residence, they must not go to Tingsang Pavilion.

Everyone is curious, and naturally many people are curious about what happened regarding Meng Lianshu's specific instructions.

While Meng Lianshu was preparing for her birthday party, she was also busy with social events.

Within two days, the news that Jiang Wansang "relied on the support of the Grand Master to do whatever he wanted in the Prime Minister's Mansion and even dared to beat people" spread in various circles.

Jiang Wansang didn't need to think to guess that this unpresentable method was Meng Lianshu's idea.

After all, Jiang Gaoyuan didn't have the courage to involve Pei Zhanzhou so arrogantly.

But Meng Lianshu dared to do this, she must have already thought of a way to appease Jiang Gaoyuan, and the following measures should be her highlight.

Jiang Wansang is not someone who likes to wait passively. Even though she has been very busy with the affairs of Shisanying recently, she still has time to deal with Meng Lianshu.

"Since she likes to spread the news about the mansion so much, it's not enough to just let those officials know!"

Meng Lianshu must still be afraid of Pei Zhanzhou, so he only dared to spread this news among officials.

Because she knew that these people would also be afraid of Pei Zhanzhou and would not dare to spread this news.

So in the end, the only one whose reputation was truly ruined was Jiang Wansang.

Unfortunately, her wishful thinking was doomed to fail.

Now that Jiang Yi was busy with Thirteen Shadow's affairs, Jiang Wansang directly instructed Lin Tong, "Go out and spread the word that the Jiang family didn't invite Miss Jiang to celebrate the New Year, so she has to spend New Year's Eve with the Third Princess of Beisheng who is far away from home."

"So when the Prime Minister's wife celebrated her birthday, Miss Jiang was still not invited. When others asked about it, they slandered her, saying that she didn't want to attend."

When Meng Lianshu had someone decorate Tingsang Pavilion, only the servants in the mansion knew about it. Even if she went out to explain that she had invited Jiang Wansang, in the eyes of more people it would probably just be the result of her trying to close the fence after the horse has bolted.

Jiang Wansang smiled sarcastically, "The bigger the news, the better. It would be best if everyone in the imperial city knew about it, even the emperor would get wind of it."

Given Jiang Gaoyuan's concern for reputation and face, it is unclear whether Meng Lianshu can withstand his anger.

Lin Tong used to be a secret guard responsible for his master's safety, and had never done such a thing.

But he did not panic and ran back to the Imperial Master's Mansion to seek help.

In his eyes, Miss Jiang and the Imperial Master's Mansion will sooner or later become one family, and Miss Jiang's affairs are the affairs of the Imperial Master's Mansion.

Zhou Zhi was also a sensible person. When he heard that it was Jiang Wansang's order, he didn't even need to report to his master and immediately arranged for someone to do it.

Zhou Zhi has always been attentive to Jiang Wansang's instructions, so the speed and extent to which the news spread completely exceeded Jiang Wansang's expectations.

According to Zhe Liu, after Jiang Gaoyuan came back, he angrily dragged Meng Lianshu into the room. No one knew what they said, but they made a lot of noise.

Later, when the servants went to clean the room, they saw debris all over the floor, and Meng Lianshu looked miserable with red eyes and an obvious slap mark on his face.

I heard that after that day, Jiang Gaoyuan never returned to his room and stayed in Aunt Wei's room for more than half a month.

Aunt Wei is Jiang Gaoyuan's only concubine.

Originally, there was another concubine in the first house, but because the incident of switching Jiang Zihan and Jiang Wansang was exposed, she committed suicide by hitting her head against a pillar.

This concubine Wei was later brought into the house by Meng Lianshu herself. Because she was injured after giving birth to Jiang Zihan and had difficulty getting pregnant, she brought a concubine into the house to continue the family line.

Aunt Wei was also very capable and gave birth to a son in the second year after she got married. Jiang Gaoyuan even named the child Jiang Yanzhu himself.

This child was the only son of the eldest wife, and should have been raised by his legal mother, Meng Lianshu. However, the child had been weak and sickly since childhood, and had almost died several times.

As he grew older, it was discovered that he was born mentally retarded, so he was thrown back to Aunt Wei's care, and Jiang Gaoyuan also withdrew his love for his only son.

Jiang Gaoyuan has always presented the image of a clean family to the outside world. He already has a son, and even if the son is born mentally retarded, for the sake of his reputation, he cannot show his disdain, and he no longer brings his concubine into the house.

Because of this, Jiang Gaoyuan gained a lot of good reputation among the people.

Jiang Wansang knew this information from the original owner's memory, but she could not remember more about Aunt Wei and Jiang Yanzhu.

Although Concubine Zhou from the second house was a low-key person, at least there were traces of her in the original owner's memory. However, Concubine Wei and Jiang Yanzhu from the first house seemed like transparent people who could be ignored at any time.

If Zhe Liu hadn't mentioned it suddenly, Jiang Wansang probably wouldn't have thought of these two people at all.

In the complex environment of the prime minister's mansion, concubine Wei, a surrogate mother, has been able to live safely with her foolish son until now. She even let the master stay in her room when the mistress made a mistake. This is not something that ordinary people can do.

"Zheliu, arrange for someone to keep an eye on Aunt Wei. You don't need to do anything special, just pay attention to her daily actions."

She had to deal with the entire prime minister's residence, so naturally she had to keep an eye out for any changes.

This concubine Wei had never had any intersection with the original owner. If they were not enemies, she certainly would not do anything to the mother and son.

After Jiang Wansang gave the order, she continued to deal with Shisanying's affairs and did not devote too much energy to dealing with the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But unexpectedly, the next morning, the housekeeper came to Tingsang Pavilion with a lot of things and servants.
