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

At this time, Shen Li was still lying on the tree and had not left.

Xiao Chenze and Xu Yang's whistles never stopped.

"The news has spread throughout the teahouses and taverns outside, saying that Madam Yao has been having an affair with the two servants of the Shen family for a long time. She didn't expect to run into them in the Marquis' Mansion today, so she took advantage of the situation and ran to the most remote utility room to have an affair."

Every once in a while, Xiao Chenze would tell Shen Li about the progress of the incident.

"How could she have an affair with a servant of the Shen family? This is too unreliable a lie."

"Of course not. They've been caught in the act, so what's impossible? Besides, who cares about the details? They'll pass it on to the next person, and they'll automatically make the impossible possible. Who knows, if you listen to it again in two days, the details you hear will surprise even you."

That’s right, it’s just gossip, hasn’t it been spread like this since ancient times?

Shen Li stopped talking.

"Xiao Haoze's men are looking for you, and so are Guan Yonghou's people. Come on, I have to get you to the carriage quickly. Your girl was knocked unconscious just now and has been sent there a long time ago. Let's go."

After saying these two sentences, Xiao Chenze stopped talking, picked up Shen Li, and rushed out of the bushes. Before Xu Yang could see clearly, the person was gone.

The Shen family's carriage was parked in the front yard of the Marquis' Mansion. There were too many guests today, and after something like this happened, everyone was busy leaving. The entire front yard was a mess, and no one cared about others. They just hoped that their carriage could pass through the congested streets as soon as possible.

The butler of Guanyonghou Mansion and Xiao Haoze finally found the Shen family's carriage. Xiao Haoze ignored the butler's obstruction and pulled open the curtain of the carriage.

In the carriage, Shen Li opened his eyes sleepily, raised his hand to block the light that suddenly shone in, frowned and asked, "Who is it? Zi Su."

Zi Su hurriedly pulled the curtain and angrily shouted, "How dare you be so rude, you idiot!"

"Who is it?"

"Miss, I didn't see who it was. Just when you sobered up, I heard something happened inside, but I didn't have time to ask. The man just now might have been too busy and couldn't find his carriage. Let's ignore him."

"Oh, how did I fall asleep without realizing it? How long have I been sleeping?"

"It wasn't long. You know how much you can drink. You shouldn't have had that glass of wine."

"Such a good peach blossom wine, I tasted it and it was sweet, I thought it would be fine, but I didn't expect it to be so strong, hehe, I drank one glass and it knocked me over."

The conversation between the master and the servant was heard clearly by people outside.

The housekeeper kept staring at Xiao Haoze. The Marquis had given the order that after finding the person, the Second Prince was not allowed to bother Shen Li. Besides, he had just seen clearly that the person in the carriage was indeed Shen Li.

This made the Second Prince even more confused.

Someone from the Chongguo Mansion came quickly and took Madam Yao back.

It was said that when she was taken away, the effect of the medicine in her body had not yet worn off, and she had applied it to her servants. She was kicked unconscious by the eldest master of the Duke of Chongguo's Mansion. He borrowed a large piece of cloth from the Marquis' Mansion, covered her from head to toe, and left in a panic.

Guan Yonghou did not come out to meet him.

Everyone in the mansion had a sullen look on their faces. Not to mention that the Marquis of Guanyong was one of the most prestigious families in the Great Zhou, commanding 300,000 soldiers. Just based on the Old Madam's relationship with the Empress Dowager, even the Emperor had to show some respect. Now, Madam Yao had come to the Marquis of Guanyong's mansion and disrupted the Thanksgiving banquet, turning it into the biggest joke in the capital. This feud had the Marquis of Guanyong suicidal, and they were eager to bring it down on the Duke of Chongguo's mansion.

The next day, the rumors became outrageous.

It was said that the eldest lady of the Yao family had a habit of forcing the servants to accompany her in her pleasure. Others said that she relied on her husband's family's power to enjoy the young men in the Chu Mansion without paying for them.

Shen Li listened with great interest.

What interested her was that Zhao was called over by people from the Chongguo Mansion early in the morning and she still hadn't returned until after noon.

Qiluo followed the people from Guanyong Marquis' Mansion to investigate the matter of the little girl Hui'er yesterday and brought back a piece of news.

Hui'er's brother was beaten to death.

It seems that he was silenced.

However, the servant who brought Hui'er into the Marquis's Mansion tried to escape but failed. He was caught by the eldest prince's men and handed over to Marquis Guanyong.

The people in the Marquis' Mansion were all from the military camp. Interrogating a prisoner was as easy as picking up a small vegetable. In a short while, they broke two of the servant's ribs and crushed one of his ankles, causing him to scream in pain and confess everything.

He was actually sent by the old lady of the Chongguo Mansion.

This made the people in Guanyonghou’s mansion very confused.

Does the old lady of the Duke of Chongguo's Mansion have a grudge against the Marquis of Guanyong's Mansion? Or does she have a grudge against Shen Li? Or does she have a grudge against both of them?

Considering that Madam Yao's maids explained that they were helping Madam Shen Zhao, they came to set a trap for Shen Li.

The Guanyong Marquis's Mansion immediately sent someone to look for Zhao.

Unfortunately, Zhao was called away by people from the Chongguo Mansion and never returned.

Guan Yonghou brought people to find Shen Zhaojiang and told him what the girl from the Yao family had said.

"Sir Shen, you'd better give me an explanation today, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless. I'm putting this on hold. If you don't, your career in officialdom will be over. You can decide for yourself."

How can a person who can't even manage his own harem be qualified to serve as the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple?

Everyone knows that Shen Zhaojiang got to this position by relying on the relationship with the old lady of the Chongguo Mansion.

The Dali Temple is the sphere of influence of the Chongguo Mansion. Unless necessary, everyone keeps to themselves.

However, Shen Zhaojiang dared to let his wife disrupt the banquet that the Marquis' Mansion had prepared for a long time. It was obvious that he did not take the Marquis' Mansion seriously at all. This was a naked contempt and humiliation for the Marquis' Mansion.

In this case, let's fight to the death and no one will have an easy time.

Let’s wait and see.

Shen Zhaojiang was threatened in person by Beiguan Yonghou, which was like being hit on the head with a stick, and his vision went dark.

He immediately went back to the mansion to find Zhao. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw the Prime Minister's carriage parked at the door, and the old Prime Minister was getting out of the carriage.

Both the father-in-law and the son-in-law looked extremely unhappy. Shen Zhaojiang no longer cared about etiquette at this moment. He turned around and told the butler who had come out to greet them, "Tell the lady to come to the front study to see me and tell her that the father-in-law is here too."

The housekeeper looked embarrassed and lowered his head and said, "Not long after the lord came to court, the lady was called away by the people from the Chongguo Mansion."

Shen Zhaojiang was stunned and looked up at the sky. "What time is it? He hasn't come back yet?"

"Yes, when we left, Madam said..."

The butler glanced at the old prime minister and shut his mouth.

"What did the Madam say? Tell me now."

"Yes, madam," the butler lowered his head, "tell the master to quickly find the families of those two servants and use them to threaten them to change their words."

"Which two slaves?" Shen Zhaojiang was extremely anxious, with fire burning in his stomach.

"That's right, the two servants who were with Madam Yao at Marquis Guanyong's mansion. Madam Yao said their family members have disappeared and asked Master to send someone to track them down quickly. Madam Yao will also ask people from Duke Chongguo's mansion to investigate as soon as possible."

"As long as we find out who took those people away, we can find out who is behind this mess."
