State Bridge Street.
Wu House.
Wu Xian got off the sedan chair and hurried into the mansion. Before the people reached the main hall, he hurriedly asked, "Where are the people from Kaifeng Mansion?"
"In return to the master, the people from Kaifeng Mansion have just left."
The maid waiting at the entrance of the main hall for Wu Xian to return to the house met Wu Xian and greeted him. Hearing Wu Xian's question, she hurriedly bowed her waist to answer.
Wu Xian's brows were frowned into the word "Chuan", his face turned blue, and he yelled irritably, "Liu Mei's servant really sued this master?"
In Wu Xian's words, there is no respect for Liu Mei, the uncle of the country.
Regardless of Liu Mei's noble status, she also controls one hundred thousand elites of the Forbidden Army and has a high position.
But in Wu Xian's eyes, Liu Mei can only be regarded as a ruined household who climbed up by nepotism, and can't compare with him, a decent 800-year-old Jinshi.
More importantly, Wu Xian suspects that he has been cheated by Liu Mei.
Liu Heng, the second son of Liu Mei's family, had just pawned the "Chunxi Tu" in the Donglai Pawnshop, and then the Donglai Pawnshop caught fire.
But he had just arrived at the fire scene of the Donglai Pawnshop, and before he had time to question what was going on, the mansion sent someone to spread the word, saying that Liu Mei had accused him.
This chain of things is like a trap, and Wu Xian can't help but doubt it.
He only hates himself for being greedy, and shouldn't be thinking about climbing the queen when he is about to climb Ding Wei.
This will not fall into Liu Mei's tricks.
Faced with Wu Xian's fierce questioning, the maid dared not make a sound in fright.
Wu Xian's brows furrowed tighter, and he was about to fight.
At this moment, Mrs. Wu Xian rushed to hear the news, and said, "Master, why do you want to vent your anger with the maid. There is nothing wrong with the mansion. People from Kaifeng Mansion have searched the mansion. , But nothing was found.
Uncle Guo sued you, but people in Kaifeng Mansion did not find evidence.
This is a false accusation. When you turn to impeach him when you go to court, naturally there will be officials and three ministers who will preside over justice for you. "
"You are a woman, know what a fart!"
Wu Xian scolded angrily.
When Mrs. Wu Xian heard this, she was displeased.
In front of outsiders, she is cleverly like a quail, but in front of Wu Xian, she has full confidence.
"Well, you Wu Xian, you have a temper, dare to yell at me. If it weren't for my father's money to support your studies and help you go to Beijing to take the exam, you can have today. Now you have become the imperial court commander, you have an identity, and you have a status. , Have forgotten my father’s kindness to you back then?"
Mrs. Wu Xian kept grabbing Wu Xian and splashing around.
She is a typical sluggish temper.
When the group of Kaifeng government officials showed up just now, she was not so aggressive.
Wu Xian has been accustomed to her everyday, but today his heart has been filled with anger. He pushed her away violently and yelled: "When is the time, you are still fighting with me here.
Wu Mansion is about to face a catastrophe.
Liu Meina’s obvious setting up framed me. Do you think Kaifeng Mansion can’t find paintings in the mansion, and this is the end
Liu Mei’s son, Liu Heng, also had a pawn ticket issued by Donglai Pawnshop.
Now that the Donglai pawn walks through the water, the painting has been burned.
As long as Liu Mei's son Liu Heng took out the vote in his hand, it was conclusive evidence.
I can't get the painting when I arrive. Not only do I have to compensate Liu Mei's 100,000 yuan of money, but I must always be prepared to be retaliated by him and the queen together. "
Mrs. Wu Xian was dumbfounded when she heard this.
It is not terrible for a civil official to offend Wuxun.
In the Song Dynasty, it was a consensus that civil servants who could not sin against martial arts were not good civil servants.
But offending the queen is a terrible thing.
Nowadays, everyone in the city of Bianjing knows that Empress Liu E holds great power and lives and kills in a single thought.
Empress Liu E has to deal with Wu Xian more easily than crushing an ant. ,
Although Mrs. Wu Xian was aggressive, she had been an official lady for a few years, and she also knew something about court affairs.
After knowing the seriousness of the matter, she stopped making trouble. Instead, she dragged Wu Xian and said with a sad expression: "Then what should I do now? Offending the queen, our family can't live in Bianjing City. "
Wu Xian glared at her, and said with a gloomy look: "Nowadays, the only way to take refuge in Ding Xiang is that with Ding Xiang's protection, the queen has to weigh her if she wants to move me."
"Go help me get that Tongtian rhinoceros belt, I'm going to Ding Mansion."
Mrs. Wu Xian hesitated when he heard the words, and said, "Didn’t you say that the Tongtian rhinoceros belt cannot be handed over to Ding Xiang? Once it is handed over to Ding Xiang, Ding Xiang will most likely take the Tongtian rhino belt but kick it. Kick you away."
Wu Xian gritted his teeth and whispered: "I can't take care of so much now. The Tongtian rhinoceros belt is handed to Ding Xiang. Even if he does this, Ding Xiang has to defend me one or two. Otherwise, who will turn to him in the future
Even if Ding Xiang kicks me away in the future, I still have enough time to make a new plan.
But if you don't take the Tongtian rhinoceros to Ding Xiang, once the queen takes action against me, it will definitely kill me. "
Mrs. Wu Xian was taken aback, and nodded hurriedly, "I'm going to get it now."
Mrs. Wu Xian hurried back to the back house to fetch the rhino belt.
Wu Xian stood at the entrance of the main hall, frowning, not knowing what he was planning.
a long time.
Mrs. Wu Xian ran out of the main hall in a panic, and shouted as she ran, "Master, master, the rhinoceros is gone!"
"what?!"
"Gone?!"
Wu Xian's face finally changed.
"It was there when I watched it last night, why is it gone now? Who was there today?!"
"Kaifeng Mansion..."
Mrs. Wu Xian immediately thought of the Yamen in Kaifeng Mansion.
"Yes, it must be them, they must have taken the rhinoceros belt."
Wu Xian was stunned in place as if struck by lightning, and he trembled: "Kaifeng Mansion... Liu Mansion... Queen... Kou Zhun..."
Wu Xian stared blankly, and said in shock: "Could it be...Could it be that Kou Zhun and the queen have joined forces?"
As soon as this thought came to his head, Wu Xian was frightened.
If Kou Zhun really teamed up with the Queen, it would be terrible.
Together, these two people are enough to control the entire court. Ding Wei, who is in power, is estimated to be cold, not to mention his little servant.
I'm afraid that people just moved their lips, and someone put their Wu family's full heads in front of them.
"impossible!"
This idea didn't last long in Wu Xian's mind before he rejected it.
With Kou Zhun's character, it is absolutely impossible to join forces with the queen.
Kou Zhun has an upright character, and has been dissatisfied with the Queen, a womanly woman, for a long time. He has openly pointed at Empress Liu E's nose more than once in the court.
How could Queen Liu E join hands with him.
"But, if they didn't join forces, why would the people in Kaifeng Mansion help Kou Zhun to steal the rhino belt? Liu Mei, why did you set up a situation to frame me at this time?"
"Why? What should I do now?"
