When Ge Chunru saw Xiao Yuanshi’s dark face, she picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes.
"At that time, Shi Qingluo even asked her parents to go to the county town to report that someone was trying to harm her."
"You actually said that the person who instigated them was instructed by me. This is really too much."
She just received the news about this today and was very angry.
Her people wrote to say that now the whole Nanxi County knew that she had forced Kong and Xiao Yuanshi to divorce, and had sent people to destroy Shi Qingluo's innocence.
Although the letter did not mention the impact, she could imagine how those people in Nanxi County would scold her.
She has been building a good reputation, but it was destroyed one after another by the people from the Xiao family and Shi Qingluo, which made her crazy.
So she won't let go.
Xiao Yuanshi's face turned even darker, "Shame on you."
Family disgrace should not be made public, but that daughter-in-law has no shame and spreads everything outside. It's really despicable.
His wife's reputation in her hometown was ruined, so naturally his reputation would not be good either.
Ge Chunru asked with red eyes: "General, is this the end of it?"
She knew that since there was conspiracy and reputation ruination, Xiao Yuanshi would not show mercy to Shi Qingluo.
Xiao Yuanshi sneered, "Of course I won't let it go like this."
"But I received news that Liang Youxiao and his group went to Nanxi County, and Xi Rong went with them."
"She must have secret guards around her, so after they leave Nanxi County, I will send someone to take action."
No wonder Liang Youxiao and others ran away from home and went to Nanxi County. It turned out that several people were secretly plotting against him.
He couldn't swallow this.
Ge Chunru's eyes flickered, and she asked worriedly, "Will Zheng'er be angry or seek revenge?"
Her people suffered repeated defeats, and Tao Liu and her confidants suddenly disappeared from the Shi family, which made her feel uneasy.
So I’m not planning on taking action myself for the time being.
She didn't want to see Xiao Hanzheng at all, and even less did she want to see Xiao Hanzheng pass the imperial examination and become a juren, let alone a jinshi.
Her brother's future is gone, and Xiao Hanzheng won't have one either.
Xiao Yuanshi thought for a moment and said, "I won't let him have a chance to retaliate."
He did not want to kill his son, but he could learn from Xi Rui and have his son's writing hand crippled, so that he would not be able to take the imperial examination.
Ge Chunru felt relieved when he heard it.
She changed the subject, "General, I heard that the Second Prince is going to take a concubine recently?"
Xiao Yuanshi nodded, "Yes, that's true."
Ge Chunru asked without beating around the bush: "What do you think of Chunyi?"
Xiao Yuanshi was stunned, obviously not expecting her to ask this.
"You want Chunyi to be the second prince's concubine?"
Ge Chunru sighed, "Chun Yi saw the Second Prince one day and couldn't help but fall in love with him. As his sister, I felt so sad."
"So if possible, I hope to fulfill her wish."
Xiao Yuanshi frowned slightly, "Her status is not enough to be the second prince's concubine."
That’s putting it mildly, it’s simply not enough.
Ge Chunru secretly resents herself, thinking that her family was a prominent family in the previous dynasty, but now they are shackled by this poor identity.
"General, I only have this one sister. Can you think of a solution?"
She took Xiao Yuanshi's hand and continued, "If Chunyi can marry into the Second Prince's Mansion, it will also be helpful to our General's Mansion."
"If she marries someone of low status, it will be shameful for us, and she will have to endure it in the backyard. I feel bad for her."
Xiao Yuanshi had never thought about this problem before, but now he thinks it can be done.
He has now established contact with the Second Prince, which means he has chosen sides with him.
If there is a relationship by marriage, it will be more secure.
"I'll go find the Second Prince in a couple of days to get some information."
Although he said this, he was sure that the other party would agree.
Ge Chunru leaned in his arms, "Thank you for your concern, General. My sister will definitely remember your kindness to her."
Ge Chunru was still recuperating, so Xiao Yuanshi sat for a while and then left.
He also ordered someone to buy a killer and go to Nanxi County to make preparations.
Then go to the yamen.
On the road that had to be taken, a carriage with a broken wheel blocked the way.
Xiao Yuanshi was very annoyed and wanted to get angry when he got off the carriage.
"Move the carriage to the side first and let others pass."
But then I heard a pleasant and soft female voice coming from the carriage.
I was too embarrassed to vent my suppressed anger.
Then, a graceful woman wearing a veil and elegantly dressed was seen getting off the carriage with the help of a maid.
He gave him an apologetic smile and ordered someone to move the carriage quickly.
Xiao Yuanshi saw that the other person was not very old, and although half of her face was covered, she was definitely a beauty.
He didn't think much about it and asked someone to help move the carriage.
The woman did not come up to talk to him. She waited until the carriage moved to the side, bowed to him, thanked him, and turned to get on the carriage.
Xiao Yuanshi didn't take such things to heart.
Just two days later, I met this woman again. She was being teased and bullied by some thugs from the capital.
He made a spur of the moment decision to take this route today, so he didn't think it was a calculation.
Seeing the woman's pitiful appearance with red eyes, Xiao Yuanshi's desire to protect her was aroused, so he asked someone to go up and help.
After successfully driving away the thugs, the woman came forward to express her gratitude and also had an encounter with Xiao Yuanshi.
However, he did not deliberately take the initiative to approach her, and his words were very considerate, like a flower that can speak eloquently.
Therefore, when Xiao Yuanshi was bored, he would go to the yard where she lived and sit and talk.
Xiaxi Village.
Shi Qingluo took Xi Rong and others to the Taoist temple to pay their respects first, but this time the master did not appear.
Xi Rong and Xi Rui walked around the Taoist temple and lost interest.
Then he asked Shi Qingluo to take them to the mountains to hunt.
Because of the presence of Xi Rong, after Xiao Hanzheng went to the county school, Shi Qingluo took a few people into the mountains.
If there were only a few men like Liang Youxiao and Xi Rui, she would definitely not go alone to avoid suspicion.
I didn’t go deep into the cave for the first two days and just played around on the periphery.
That day Xi Rui said, "Let's go deeper and take a look. The outer part is not fun at all."
There's no point in just hunting a few rabbits every day.
Xi Rong agreed, "Yes, Luoluo, take us deeper to play."
"We all brought guards with us, so safety is not a problem."
Liang Youxiao also said: "I heard that in this kind of deep forest, if you are lucky, you can find ginseng and ganoderma lucidum. Let's try our luck."
Shi Qingluo was also quite interested in the deep mountains, "Okay."
Fei Yuzhe: “…” As expected, these people can’t stay idle when they get together.
Fearing that something might happen to them, he had no choice but to follow them.
After entering the deep mountains, Shi Qingluo took a small knife and made marks on the trees every time he walked a certain distance.
Xi Rong asked: "What are you doing?"
Shi Qingluo replied: "It's easy to get lost in this deep forest. I'll mark the way so that if you get lost you can find the way out."
Xi Rong's eyes lit up, she understood, "Luoluo, you are really smart."
Shi Qingluo chuckled, "Thank you for the compliment."
We went deep into the forest and did not encounter any ferocious beasts, but we did find a swarm of wild bees.
Shi Qingluo took them to dig honey, which was quite exciting.
