After The Divorce, I Became the Favorite of the Powerful Ministers

Chapter 157 Is This Old Woman Crazy?

Chapter 157 Is This Old Woman Crazy?

The library on the other side.

Xiao Yuanshi asked people to check what happened today.

He carefully recalled what happened from entering the restaurant to what happened later.

It also made him discover two wrong places.

The first is that the shop assistant, when pouring wine for him, his hands trembled and almost overflowed.

Second, why did it happen that he was drinking with his colleagues, and the gangsters also went.

Among the key group is Xi Rui.

So he asked people to arrest the second shopkeeper for questioning.

And let people stare at Xi Rui and the uncle.

I have to say that Xiao Yuanshi's ability to go from a soldier to a general does have his own advantages.

Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao got into the carriage after spreading the news about the restaurant.

It was not easy for the two to follow each other. Naturally, they discovered that someone was following and reported it.

Liang Youxiao waved his hand, "Let them follow."

Xi Rui raised his eyebrows, "Xiao Yuanshi is quite smart, so he suspects us?"

Liang Youxiao smiled meaningfully, "It should be your suspicion, not us."

Xi Rui: "..." This guy is not a thing.

He shrugged indifferently, "I'll find it if I find it, I didn't want to hide it."

Xiao Yuanshi must have guessed that he was tricked.

Many things in the restaurant were coincidental, so it was strange that Xiao Yuanshi didn't doubt him.

After finding out, he is not afraid.

He wanted to let Xiao Yuanshi know that if the general's wife dared to plot against him, she had to accept his revenge.

Liang Youxiao chuckled: "That's right, it's just Xiao Yuanshi, there's nothing to be afraid of."

Xi Rui put his hand on Liang Youxiao's shoulder, "Let's go and play mahjong."

"Okay." Liang Youxiao nodded with a smile.

So the two ran to a teahouse and invited two friends out to play mahjong.

The news about General Xiao in the capital spread out like it had grown wings.

When many people heard the news, the first reaction was that they couldn't believe it, and the second reaction was that General Xiao was such a person.

I really can't see it!

The next day, when Xiao Yuanshi went to court, he was greeted with strange looks from many courtiers.

There are even people who directly cast contempt.

He was stunned for a moment, did that old scoundrel tell the story?

There wasn't much to do today, and it didn't take long for the court to disperse.

Xiao Yuanshi didn't know if it was his own delusion. He noticed that the emperor looked at him deliberately before he left.

After leaving the hall, Xiao Yuanshi found that many people who were usually well-connected were actually far away from him.

I was sure in my heart that what happened yesterday was leaked out.

At this time, he could not wait to immediately take the sword and slaughter the uncle.

At this time, another general who had a close relationship with him came over.

The man asked in a low voice, "Primestone, did you offend someone?"

Regarding the news spread from the outside, he believed that there was such a thing, but he did not believe that Xiao Yuanshi had such a hobby.

They had been on the battlefield together, and he knew that Xiao Yuanshi didn't have that kind of hobby.

And even if there is, with Xiao Yuanshi's temperament, it is impossible to do such a thing in a restaurant.

So there is only one possibility, Xiao Yuanshi was calculated.

He suspected that it was the dandy uncle.

Xiao Yuanshi asked in a low voice, "Did you hear something?"

The man told him what he had heard.

Xiao Yuanshi's face was instantly gloomy, "Are you saying that it was Xi Rui and other gangsters who spread such news?"

The man nodded, "Yes, they said they saw it with their own eyes."

"And a colleague who went drinking with you yesterday also said it was true, and he saw it too."

Xiao Yuanshi finally knew why those people looked at him with strange eyes today.

And a few days ago, why the eyes of those people were wrong.

It turned out to be that bastard Xi Rui, who led the dummies to spread rumors about him, and even said that he and Ge Chunyi...

The target he wanted to kill at this time was successfully transferred to Xi Rui.

This is and only the bastard can do it.

"Indeed, I was calculated. I didn't know what happened yesterday. It became like this after I woke up."

"Before, my nephew and Xi Rui had a conflict and accidentally punched each other."

"Later, my wife and brother also had a conflict with Xi Rui, and he let my wife and brother's hand be discounted."

Xiao Yuanshi smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that he didn't have enough revenge."

He basically told the man about what happened yesterday.

The general sighed, "Hey, this matter has a big impact on your reputation, you should pay attention recently."

For Xi Rui, he couldn't say anything.

After all, the little devil was very fond of the queen mother and the emperor, and Xiao Yuanshi was unlucky when he got into trouble.

Then, many people who knew Xiao Yuanshi's temperament came forward to ask.

Xiao Yuanshi also explained everything one by one, and everyone felt that he was really unlucky.

However, they have recently decided to keep some distance from them. After all, people are terrible, and they don't want to be one of the objects in the rumors.

Xi Rui's group of dandies, who have backgrounds and are not afraid of heaven and earth, can't afford to offend them.

Xiao Yuanshi is on the road, and the Minister of War invites you

On a vacation, I didn't go to the yamen.

He really couldn't hold this face down.

When such a thing happened to his subordinates, the Minister of War was not happy.

He didn't want Xiao Yuanshi to focus his attention on the Ministry of War, so he directly gave him three days' leave.

Xiao Yuanshi got into the carriage returning to the General's Mansion and directly crushed several teacups on the carriage.

"Xi Rui!" He gritted his teeth, killing intent in his eyes.

That bastard was too much, just a trivial matter, not only completely ruined his brother-in-law, but also calculated him.

He closed his eyes, and now he can't move Xi Rui and the old dude, but one day, he will have to tear them into pieces.

The most important thing to do now is to reduce the impact of this incident and rumors on him in the court.

This time his loss was great, but he managed to gain a foothold in the courtroom, and he created a good reputation as a Confucian general.

Now it's all been destroyed by those dudes, he hates it!

On the other side, the old lady took her daughter-in-law out in the morning.

Suddenly, he met an old lady whom he had just known for a while, and pulled her to tell her about his son.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao was half-dead with anger.

She didn't believe it, and then ran to ask a few other acquaintances, who knew what everyone said.

Unable to hold back, he hurried back to the General's Mansion with his daughter-in-law.

A young man hooked his lips when he saw the old lady Xiao's appearance.

Not long after, he asked someone to give the old woman ten taels of silver to the old lady who disclosed the news to Mrs. Xiao.

After the good show at the General's Mansion is finished, he can write a letter to his master to pass it back.

General's House.

Ge Chunru is drinking nourishing soup.

Since she became pregnant, with Xiao Yuanshi's intervention, she no longer has to serve the old lady.

Suddenly the maid came to report, "Madam, the old lady rushed into the yard with an ugly face."

Ge Chunru frowned, "Why is she going crazy?"

She stood up, "Go, go have a look."

She is pregnant now, and the old lady doesn't dare to touch her like before.

As soon as he walked out of the room door, a slap suddenly fell on his face.

Ge Chunru covered her face and looked at the old lady in disbelief.

Is this old woman crazy?
