From Zhengping Garden to Chunhe Waterside Pavilion, everyone was on alert, with hundreds of pairs of eyes staring closely at the five men in the crowd.
Shen Lie walked in front with his head held high, calm and sharp, like a sharp sword that drove straight forward. One person took the lead and no one dared to stop him.
Everyone kept a distance of ten steps from him, as if an invisible boundary forced them ten steps away.
Even Shen Lie didn't dare to pick up the lazy glance he gave her.
Guo Yiwen was thrown into Zhengpingyuan by Zhai Jinsheng, and now it is Guo Hongbo who is being caught by Zhai Jinsheng.
Guo Yanchuan is in Dai Yu's hands.
An extremely shameless way of arresting someone.
The person who arrested the person walked smoothly and gracefully.
The two honored masters of the Guo family followed beside him, stumbling and clutching at the lapels of their clothes in embarrassment.
But image is no longer important. Guo Yiwen's fate has left the dignity of their elder and head of the family completely gone. Their faces turned pale, and they only hoped that someone would come to save them.
The courtyard lamp illuminated the large waterside pavilion, and the female relatives in rich and colorful clothes appeared at the end of the large white jade stone bridge.
"father!"
"master!"
"Father!"
The female relatives cried anxiously with tears in their eyes.
Several of Guo Hongbo's concubines knelt down: "Mr. Shen, please let my master go!"
"Cousin Shen! Don't hurt my father!" Guo Jiuniang cried, "I beg you!"
The female relatives cried together, and the maids and servants could not stop them. The guards and secret guards protected them behind them.
Shen Lie left without stopping.
"I know Ah Li!" Guo Shiniang suddenly stood up and said, "Shen Lie, I know Ah Li!"
The young man who had been showing no sign of any mood swings suddenly stopped.
Shen Lie turned around, his handsome face was as white as snow under the courtyard lamp, and as cold as an immortal in the cold palace.
"The Guo family treats you with great kindness. How dare you treat my father like this? You are an ungrateful rat. A strong woman like Ah Li will definitely look down on you!" Guo Shiniang said loudly with a trembling voice.
The girl has a pretty face and is dressed in a gold and silver silk silk flowered brocade dress, with a somewhat unpolished childlike look on her face.
Shen Lie turned her head and looked at her father Guo Hongbo.
The person with an even uglier face than Guo Hongbo was Guo Yanchuan.
Shen Lie's stop gave Guo Shiniang courage, and she continued: "Shen Lie, if you are still a good man, you would let my father go, otherwise you will not be able to behave in front of the world, let alone in front of your close friends. I can’t hold my head up!”
Shen Lie ignored her and stared at Guo Yanchuan with his dark eyes, which was chilling.
Guo Yanchuan's legs were too weak to stand, and his eyes were wandering due to guilt.
Zhai Jinsheng, who had always been silent, said: "There are not many secret guards in the Guo family who know about the acquaintance between the young master and Miss Ali."
"The Guo family is accustomed to protecting themselves wisely. For a big shot like Miss Ali who is at the forefront of the storm, the Guo family will not easily engage in any public affairs. These gentlemen are even less likely to involve the female family members in disputes. Secondly. "
"It is true that some people do not know how to behave, cannot control their lips and tongue, or cannot control their hands and eyes, the third one."
"Fourth, either this Guo Shiniang learned about it by accident, or..."
"Or," Shen Lie looked at Guo Yanchuan and said calmly, "Ali's letter to me was read by her?"
Guo Yanchuan turned pale and looked away.
"No wonder you can't get out the letter!" Dai Yu shouted with a force of his wrist, "You actually took the letter Ah Li wrote to our young master and ruined it!!"
"I don't know what the letter is! I haven't read it either!" Guo Shiniang said, trying to straighten her back.
At the same time, she couldn't help but glance at her father Guo Hongbo.
"Dai Yu." Shen Lie said in a deep voice.
Dai Yu grabbed Guo Yanchuan by his collar and threw him against the railing.
The female relatives suddenly exclaimed.
Guo Yanchuan's wife, Nangong, was so frightened that she crawled over to her knees and begged for mercy.
The letter was given to her by Guo Yanchuan.
He said she was a woman and asked her to analyze the tone of the letter and judge whether there was anything going on between Ah Li and Shen Lie.
After reading it, she put it in the study and was seen by her daughters.
The girls were usually free in the back house, but when they saw other women writing letters, they were still addressed to Shen Lie. For a while, everyone was laughing and hooting, fighting over the two letters, mocking them, and reading them loudly.
Guo Shiniang had indeed never seen the letter, and as the words passed from word to word, she learned from others that Ah Li, who was causing trouble in the city, had an ambiguous relationship with Shen Lie and was very close.
Ah Li is a good and righteous daughter, Guo Shiniang feels that she will look down on Shen Lie.
But now, the development of the situation exceeded her expectation.
Guo Yanchuan was lying on the stone barrier, with a cut on his forehead and blood sliding down his brow bone.
The development of the situation also exceeded his expectation.
"It's me! I got it!" Nangong cried loudly, "I got these two letters. I didn't put them away properly after reading them, and they bumped into me!"
She kowtowed to the ground, cried and said how she got the letter, and took all the responsibility on herself.
Guo Yanchuan was trembling at the side, not daring to speak, and let the woman come forward for him.
"Where's the letter?" Shen Lie asked.
Nangong choked, those two letters had disappeared in the days when the girls were laughing and joking about each other.
"This is too much!" Dai Yu shouted, "What a scholarly family, your Nangong family is just as much a joke as the Guo family!"
Nangong's face turned pale and tears fell one by one.
"A-Li visited Zuilu last year," Shen Lie's voice was extremely cold, "She handed me a greeting card, and you guys teased her too?"
"I, I didn't know, I didn't know there was a greeting card from her."
"I like Miss Ah Li!" Guo Shiniang shouted, "If Miss Ah Li comes, I will never ask for her, not to mention her taking the initiative to hand over the invitation. If I know where she is, I will go look for her every day!"
"Don't talk." Shen Lie said quietly.
"I really didn't know about the invitation," Nangong wiped her tears, "There is no such thing!"
"...There are so many people coming to Guo's house to deliver greeting cards, but we may not see her greeting card." Guo Jiuniang cried tremblingly.
Dai Yu smiled: "Don't you see my young master's name?"
As he said that, he grabbed Guo Yanchuan's hair and said, "Mr. Guo, the women may really not know, what about you?"
"I stopped you!" A clear male voice suddenly sounded.
Dai Yu paused and looked quickly.
Shi Shi, who was running quickly, pushed through the crowd and squeezed out, still breathing heavily.
He looked at Shen Lie, his eyes were red and his lips were trembling: "Young Master."
No one dared to enter the open space in front of him. In the open space, a handsome young man stood tall and straight.
His handsome face didn't have much expression, but everyone could sense his angry murderous intent.
I haven't seen him for many years, so strange.
It's clearly close in front of you, but yet so far away.
"I secretly intercepted Miss Ali's invitation!" He said loudly, "No one in the house knows about it. If you want to deal with it, deal with me!"
As he spoke, he took out several letters from his pocket.
"There are several other letters from Miss Ah Li, and I also stopped them."
