Chapter 19
The Guoan Hou Mansion is destined to be a sleepless night tonight.
After Gu Jinsheng returned home, he sat down in the front yard and waited for his father to come back. Such a big thing happened, of course, he wanted his father to know.
The servants served on both sides. The Mingmu, who betrayed his master, knelt in front of her and shivered. He was a servant. He was not old and had never seen much of the world. She no longer knew what to say. She was so scared that her face was pale and she felt that she was really finished this time.
Miss Sheng seemed to have changed her personality, and sat there coldly and drank a cup of hot tea, without losing her temper or scolding her. She looked very calm.
Gu Yanjing suddenly couldn't understand this sister anymore, so he sat aside and waited to support her sister.
Jin Sheng is more than just the word "sensible". Gu Yanjing can't describe that feeling, just like a person suddenly became a complete transformation.
Yun Xi was so angry that her face turned pale. Even if the slut said she was instructing her, she would not admit it. She stood there with her neck hard and refused to bow her head, just waiting for her biological mother to come back to help her turn the situation around.
Aunt Zhou hurried back with the fifth young master. When she was on the road, she heard others discussing, saying that the lady from the Guoan Hou Mansion had a fight on the city wall. A concubine actually joined forces with a slave to frame the legitimate sister, and she obviously rolled down the steps...
Those people didn't know who was called, but they scolded the concubine very much.
Aunt Zhou guessed whether Yunxi had done something, so she didn't care about taking the fifth young master to play anymore, so she rushed back immediately, and Aunt Xie followed her back.
Since it was the Lantern Festival today, even Gu Caihua went out and had a drink with his colleagues to talk about his relationship, but he has not come back yet.
Aunt Zhou didn't expect that her daughter would fall into a big fuck when she went out and fell into the hands of Miss Sheng, who they never took in. When she hurried in, she saw her daughter standing there, Jin Sheng and Yanjing, both brothers and sisters.
Aunt Zhou was about to salute Yanjing first. He was the eldest son of the mansion and the governor, so she could not tolerate her being presumptuous.
Aunt Zhou was about to bow and salute, but Yun Xi had already pulled her and shouted: "Auntie, you are back. If you don't come back, I will be killed by Sister Sheng and her servants joining forces."
Aunt Zhou replied calmly: "Miss Three, aren't you the best relationship with Sister Sheng? What happened? Tell me slowly." As Gu Yanjing sat here, Aunt Zhou was obviously much more cautious.
Gu Yanjing rarely pays attention to the affairs in the backyard. He is a man and has endless political affairs every day. Over the years, they have also coaxed Jin Sheng very well. Jin Sheng never says anything wrong to their brother. In Gu Yanjing's opinion, his sister lives a happy life and lives a happy life.
However, during this period, Jin Sheng seemed to have become much distant from their relationship and became a stalemate.
Yunxi had already told Aunt Zhou about the incident, only saying that Jin Sheng pushed her down from the steps in the city wall. Of course, he refused to admit that he had deliberately dropped from the steps, and would not admit that she had instructed Mingmu to frame his master. It only said that Jin Sheng was frightened and wanted to testify for her, but he bit her back.
Jin Sheng ignored her and let her talk nonsense.
Aunt Zhou looked at Mingmu who was lying on the ground. She was indeed very scared.
Aunt Zhou couldn't imagine the scene at that time, and she didn't know how Jin Sheng spoke. After hearing her daughter talk about the matter, she could only laugh a little first and said politely: "Miss Sheng, I don't think you did it on purpose. You and Yun Xi have a good relationship since childhood. I think there must be some misunderstandings here. My sisters don't have overnight revenge. But this slut can't keep it, so it's better to send her out of the house."
She spoke generously, as if she didn't care about her anymore, and was just saying that she pushed Yunxi out of the way.
Jin Sheng ignored her and just continued to take another sip of tea.
Aunt Zhou hurriedly said, "This is the Lantern Festival, which has affected the ladies' elegance. It's so disappointing. Miss Sheng, have you come back before you go to Taihu Lake?"
She wants to change the subject and not pursue this matter anymore?
Jin Sheng sneered secretly.
When visiting Taihu Lake, she had no interest in these things at all.
At this moment, a notice from a servant came from outside: Mr. Hou is here...
Gu Caihua hurried in. When he first entered the mansion, the people below came to report to him about the ladies.
Gu Caihua walked in with his head held high, but Jin Sheng did not expect that there was also a Lord Su who came in with Gu Caihua.
Jin Sheng didn't know what Lord Su was doing at this time, maybe he was looking for her brother.
She had no time to care about what Lord Su was doing. When she saw her father coming in, she had already stood up and bowed to Gu Caihua who came in, saying, "Dad, you are back, we have been waiting for you for a long time." Since Lord Su was a 'teacher', she still bowed to Lord Su after saluting his father.
Aunt Zhou also gave a quick salute, but she didn't know Lord Su, and saw that he was a young man again, so she didn't care.
Of course, Gu Caihua knew Lord Su’s position in the court. In short, he was still under Lord Su’s disciple... and worked under him and worked for him.
I met Lord Su outside before, but Lord Su took the initiative to call him, and he believed that he was really Lord Su.
For a moment, he couldn't believe that Lord Su would call him on his own initiative and asked him well. He was so flattered. Who knew that Lord Su was not old and twenty years old in the cabinet, but he had a lot of weight in his words. Even the emperor often listened to him, and anyone could see that this person was not a thing in the pool. His scheming was deep and deep, and no one could understand or see through it.
On weekdays, they could only look at Lord Su from afar. Although Gu Caihua was granted a ward, he had no ability to inherit his father's title, otherwise he would not have been so old and he would have only done some chores in the cabinet. He relied on the family business reputation left by his ancestors. He usually had no chance to talk to the emperor and could not go to court to participate in political affairs.
He didn't understand why Lord Su called him, but Lord Su said: I just drank some wine with Lord Dun, but Lord Dun had something left to him. He planned to give it back to him in person. Don't mind walking with him!
Unexpectedly, Lord Su actually had a friendship with his son. Gu Caihua was happy. Of course he didn't mind. He immediately invited Lord Su to go to the mansion with him.
Gu Caihua didn't want to talk about his housework in front of others. He thought that Lord Su was simply coming to find his son, but Lord Su had no intention of leaving yet, but instead said: "It seems that there is something wrong in the mansion. Lord Du Tong, have you not yet understood the matter of Miss Muslim going down the steps and framed Miss Sheng at the city wall?"
He asked a simple and rough question about something that seemed complicated to others.
Gu Yanjing replied to him: "Mr. Su, this matter is being resolved." So what exactly did he come over?
"Then I'm coming at the right time. Maybe I can be a witness, you guys continue." Lord Su had already sat down and did not treat himself as an outsider at all.
His power in the cabinet was already suppressing Gu Caihua's official ranks. For a while, Gu Caihua couldn't say anything, so Gu Yanjing sat down with Lord Su, and he wanted to listen together.
Gu Caihua dared not to ask Lord Su not to listen. He had to glance at a few children, and finally stared at Jin Sheng's face, and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on."
Aunt Zhou stole the words first and said, "Mr. Hou, the ladies were playing together, and they made a little awkward. They said that Miss Sheng pushed Yunxi down from the steps of the city wall. I think Yunxi was not hurt either. It must be because there are many people. You squeezed me and I pushed you, and you accidentally hit you. It was not intentional, so forget it."
As for Lord Su's words about Miss Shu's fall off the steps by herself, Aunt Zhou dared not speak out. This man looked so big that even Master Hou and Lord General respected him. She did not dare to offend him, so she could only tell the matter lightly.
Gu Caihua knew this and thought it was a big deal. Since Aunt Zhou said it was okay, forget it, of course he wouldn't care. Besides, Lord Su was here, so it was hard for someone to watch it and make a joke. He said, "Aunt Zhou said, "All the big deal is gone."
Jin Sheng looked at him. He chose to automatically ignore the important information in the words of Lord Su. His father refused to continue asking. He only heard Aunt Zhou's words and thought it was true.
He really believed in Aunt Zhou's words.
Or is my father still thinking that family scandals should not be made public and that he doesn’t want Lord Su to listen?
My father is afraid of ugliness, but she is not afraid of it.
She lives in this life, just to expose Aunt Zhou’s ugly face. She wants to pretend to be generous and settle things. She also asks her if she wants to.
