Princess Menglang is hard to change, the whole capital is embarrassed for her

Chapter 111 If you can't solve it, muddy the water

The news of the unusual noises above the Prime Minister's Mansion also spread along with the news of the erotic painting in Wen Wanying's arms.

These days, the rumors about the Prime Minister's family alone are enough for a storyteller to write a book. The teahouse is very lively, and everyone is wondering what caused the noise.

Some people guessed that it was caused by astronomical phenomena, but they couldn't explain why.

Some people say that it is some kind of magical power at work, and it is possible that a remarkable person will emerge from the Prime Minister's family.

According to this rumor, within two days, people outside said that Wen Wanying, the eldest daughter of the Wen family in Jiangnan, was elegant, well-behaved, beautiful and intelligent, and was born with good fortune. Those voices were speaking out for her.

A lady who knew the inside story said disdainfully, "Bullshit! The album hadn't fallen out of her body at that time. What's she complaining about?"

Then there were rumors that it was not a complaint but a warning.

As for what warning?

Naturally, it was to remind her that someone was trying to frame her and destroy her reputation.

That erotic picture book didn't belong to Miss Wen at all. Someone was jealous of her and deliberately stuffed it into her possession.

When the ladies who were invited to the Prime Minister's residence to play with her heard the news, they were all very angry. This basin of dirty water was poured on them in vain, and this matter could no longer be treated as a joke.

What's more, the storytelling trends outside have been changing all the time these days. As long as it is beneficial to Wen Wanying, one thing can be interpreted in a hundred different ways, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell what is going on.

Isn’t it just that the Wen family relied on their wealth to bribe those people?

If she can bribe people, can't others do the same?

As a result, many versions of the story about the prime minister's cousin in a certain dynasty who hid erotic pictures appeared in restaurants and teahouses.

As the two sides wrestled, more and more ladies were involved.

At this time, the eldest lady of the Wen family from Jiangnan came to Beijing.

She is Zhao's elder sister, and is known as Big Zhao.

As soon as she arrived in Beijing, she went to see the Wen family's ancestor in the capital, the old lady of the Chongguo Mansion. They talked sweetly for a whole day and decided to meet at a banquet at the Shen Mansion three days later. She politely declined the old lady's invitation to let her stay in the mansion and left the Chongguo Mansion with Wen Wanying.

As soon as they entered the carriage, Mrs. Zhao's face darkened and she asked Wen Wanying, "What on earth is going on with that booklet?"

While she was still on the way to Beijing, she received the news that her daughter had hidden a pornographic picture album on her body. She was so anxious that she wished she could grow wings and fly over.

Everyone else thought her daughter was a delicate and weak girl, but she was the only one who knew that her daughter had a hard heart and no warmth at all, and was not a person who followed the rules at all.

This contrast made her half-believe and half-doubt the rumors outside.

I half believed it because my daughter's personality might really make her dare to do such a thing, and I half doubted it because my daughter has always been smart and such a stupid thing is not like her type.

As expected, Wen Wanying's well-behaved and sensible demeanor in front of the old lady of the Duke of Chongguo Mansion instantly changed as soon as she entered the carriage. She frowned and said bitterly, "That booklet is not mine. Mother, there is no need to be so angry. As for whose it belongs to, I haven't found any clues from my grandfather in all these days. I suspect that this thing belongs to either of those ladies, or..."

She glanced at Da Zhao and said, "She belongs to my cousin from the Shen family."

Mrs. Zhao was shocked, then shook her head and said, "Impossible, your cousin from the Shen family has no reason to do this. Besides, she doesn't have the brains to do this."

"Why is it unreasonable?" Wen Wanying looked out the window coldly and said, "My aunt is thinking about me marrying Shen Shaokun. I said in front of Shen Yao that Shen Shaokun is shit and pretentious. Shen Yao was unhappy and we had a quarrel. She told me not to be so proud, because one day when I want to marry her brother, her family will think I'm not worthy of her."

When Mrs. Zhao heard this, she also frowned.

Could it be that Shen Yao deliberately framed her daughter in order to suppress her arrogance?

Who would dare to ask for my daughter's hand in marriage if my daughter's reputation was ruined? And then, my daughter would be inferior to Shen Shaokun?

After thinking about it, she still didn't quite believe it.

"That's impossible," Mrs. Zhao said to Wen Wanying, "It's not that mother looks down on them, but they are two siblings who can't think of such a plan, and your aunt wouldn't support them doing this. This is definitely not your cousin's doing."

"Mother, just make sure you didn't buy the booklet yourself. As for the rest, since it's already happened, there's no point in dwelling on it. It's already a mess, and everyone's stuck in the mud. No one can get out of this mess."

"Tomorrow, go visit your grandparents with Mom. Rest at home for a couple of days, then go with Mom to the Shen family for a banquet. There will be a lot of people there that day. The more openly you present yourself, the more people will believe you're innocent."

"Oh," Wen Wanying replied in a low mood, "Mother, I don't want to go to my grandfather's house."

"Why, haven't you been living there since you came up from the south? Why don't you like going there anymore?"

"Grandfather is too strict, always scolding us. And on the day the accident happened, he ordered my daughter to move back to our own home without asking any questions, without considering whether she would be safe at home alone. If it weren't for my great-aunt's pity, my daughter would have been scared to death."

There was another reason she didn't tell. She always felt that the old prime minister's eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. She had no way to hide in front of him, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

Zhao slapped her in anger and said with a deliberately stern face, "Don't talk nonsense. What's the point of being scared to death? Mother knows how brave you are. Your grandfather asked you to go back to live there, probably for your own good. The Prime Minister's Mansion is a complicated place. If something bad happens again, you will never be able to clear yourself up."

Wen Wanying tilted her head and thought for a while, but still felt that her grandfather looked at her with scrutiny and dislike.

Forget it, never mind. Mother is back, and I can live in the Wen family mansion without having to worry about anyone's mood. How nice.

"Mother, are you the one who spread those stories outside these days?"

Mrs. Zhao didn't say anything. She smiled, lifted the curtain and looked outside.

Wen Wanying understood immediately that she had to rely on her mother, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to face anyone.

Who on earth is harming himself like this?

She had been thinking about it for so many days but had no clue.

The rumors in the capital were indeed spread by the orders of the Great Zhao family.

As soon as she received the pigeon letter and learned that her daughter was in trouble, she started to take action.

If you can't get to the bottom of the matter, muddy the waters.

I learned this from my father, the Prime Minister, before I got married.

Shen House.

Shen Li has been following the rumors about the pornographic book. She didn't expect that Wen Wanying would be able to get out of it in just a few days. She likes such opponents. Otherwise, she feels like she is regressing if she always faces a moron like Shen Yao.

Outside, Banxia rushed in again.

Before she could even reach her, she shouted at the top of her voice, "Miss, have you heard? There's a banquet going on in the mansion in three days. The old lady and the mistress have sent invitations. I heard Miss Cui and Miss Cousin will be there."

Shen Li's eyes flashed.

Have a party?

Still in the Shen Mansion?

What? Do you think she hasn't been enough for you?

However, given her relationship with Zhao, it would be strange if she took the initiative to invite Cui Lan'er and Fang Mingwan to the banquet at her mansion without any tricks involved.
