Wang Ziteng and Shi Jia Shuanghou responded to the appointment and arrived at Rongguo Mansion.
The eldest man, Zheng Lao'er and the three of them went to Rongqing Hall to pay homage to Jia's mother.
"We are all relatives, so if you have anything to say, talk to me!"
The three of them were confused by Jia Mu's words. They just vaguely felt that something was wrong, but since they were here, there was nothing to worry about. Just talk about it.
The elder invited the three of them to the main hall of the east courtyard, but they chatted and did not go straight to the topic, which made Wang Ziteng and Shi Jia Shuanghou even more confused.
"Enhou, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?"
Shi Er and the elder's cousins also asked politely: "Invite the three of us here, but then you don't talk about business!"
Not to mention the three people who were invited, even Zheng Laoer, who was waiting for his companions, was confused.
"It's nothing, it's just a matter for our four major families!"
The elder smiled and spoke with a calm demeanor, as if he were having a normal family chat. However, the three people who were invited felt a shiver in their hearts, wondering what had happened to make it so mysterious?
"What, what happened?"
Wang Ziteng's eyelids jumped and he asked straight to the point.
"Something did happen. Let's wait until your sister Wang comes to tell us!"
The elder nodded and said meaningfully.
Wang Ziteng's face froze when he heard this, and he immediately understood that his sister had probably done something wrong again. She just asked him to come. Why did she also call Shuang Hou of the Shi family to see his joke?
I felt a little unhappy, and there was a slight line on my face.
The elder didn't say a word when he saw this. Later, Wang Ziteng would know what embarrassment was.
"Hou Enhou, is there anything wrong with our brothers being here?"
Shi Laosan spoke bluntly, but he was quite honest. Of course, this was because the eldest master's status was different from before, otherwise the two princes of the Shi family would not have looked down upon him.
"Nothing wrong!"
The elder smiled and said: "Not only is there something going on with the Wang family, but you, the Historian family, are not left behind either!"
Hearing this, Wang Ziteng and Shi Jia Shuanghou became even more confused. They didn't know what kind of medicine the elder was selling in his gourd.
"Brother, is there something you can't tell directly?"
Jia Zheng was a little dissatisfied. He was just a companion?
At this moment, Mrs. Wang came over and was surprised when she saw Wang Ziteng and Shi Jia Shuanghou. She didn't understand what the eldest master meant?
"These are some recent cases investigated by Shuntian Mansion. Take a look!"
Asking Mr. Wang to sit next to Zheng Lao'er, the elder took out several files from the bookshelf and gave them to Wang Ziteng and Shi Jia Shuanghou to read them. As for Zheng Lao'er and his wife, forget about it.
"Is this, this, this true?"
Wang Ziteng's old face flushed red, his hands trembling slightly as he held the case file, but he was quite dissatisfied with the elder in his heart. How could such a thing be known to the Shijia Shuanghou? Wouldn't it be a loss of face for him?
"Brother Zi Teng, don't worry!"
The elder said calmly: "If I were targeting you and the Wang family, I wouldn't notify you so quickly. Instead, I would target the Wang family first!"
After thinking about this, Wang Ziteng's expression softened a little, but when he saw the Shuanghou of the Shi family next to him, he looked a little embarrassed.
"Big brother doesn't laugh at second brother. Our three families basically all have problems, so there's no need to feel embarrassed!"
The elder was considerate and comforted with a smile; "The Shi family's situation is also quite serious. If we are not sure, it will probably stop here!"
The Shijia Shuanghou was stunned. The gloating that had just arisen in his heart immediately dissipated. He looked over with a puzzled look on his face. He racked his brains and couldn't figure out what was wrong with his house.
However, the eldest master is now the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, the de facto boss of Shuntian Prefecture, and coupled with his tough performance in confronting Prince Zhongshun before, his words have to be taken seriously by Wang Ziteng and others.
"Brother Wang saw what was in the file, and the conspiracy and calculations are all aside for now!"
When the three of them had almost finished looking at the file, the eldest man said: "I just don't understand. The Wang family's foundation is not bad. Did the Rongguo Mansion treat their younger siblings badly? Why is it that the Wang family is just looking for money and hugging them like crazy?"
Not to mention money, why do you dare to make money of any kind?"
Before Wang Ziteng and the others said anything, Mrs. Wang became unhappy and asked angrily with an ugly face: "What do you mean, sir?"
"literal meaning!"
The elder said calmly: "Ms. Wang, you forged the two names of Lian, and used the name of the master to put a seal on the wallet to solicit lawsuits. Your methods are crude and your servants are even more vicious and cruel. Who do you think you can hide it from?"
"Master, please don't slander anyone!"
Mrs. Wang's face was livid, her right hand that was holding the beads suddenly clenched, and she sneered: "Slandering me in front of my second brother, the eldest master is so powerful!"
"Whether it is a slander, my brothers and sisters know it well!"
The eldest man spoke calmly. When he turned around, he saw Wang Ziteng frowning and looking embarrassed. He waved his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, there is no need to be like this. The reason why I invited you here is to make it clear to my brothers and sisters through your mouth."
, lest she be lawless and think that no matter what she does, the Wang family can handle it!"
"What do you mean by Enhou's words?"
Wang Ziteng's face looked a little ugly. He put down the file in his hand and said angrily: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you want to bully a woman from the Wang family in front of me, you will never agree to it!"
Seeing the smile on Mrs. Wang's lips, the elder laughed and said leisurely: "I'm not that leisurely yet, but I just can't stand the boldness of my younger siblings. I was so confident before that I wanted to ask you to help mediate the conflict between me and Prince Zhongshun, so I said
Prince Zhongshun must be betraying your face!"
It was okay at first, but after hearing this, Wang Ziteng's face became a little ugly.
"Sister, do you really have such thoughts?"
Wang Ziteng was extremely depressed and asked directly to Mrs. Wang: "Tell the truth!"
"Second brother, what's the big deal?"
Mrs. Wang said angrily: "You have the troops and horses of the Beijing camp. Even Prince Zhongshun must be wary. Such a face will definitely be sold!"
After hearing Mrs. Wang's eloquent defense, Wang Ziteng had the urge to vomit blood.
Even the two princes of the Shi family could not help but look sideways, thinking that they had seen a lot of cheaters, but this was the first time they had encountered such a person who was willing to cheat his brother to death.
"Haha, Brother Wang knows how depressed I am now, right?"
The elder laughed heartily and couldn't help but say: "I wonder how your Wang family raises their daughter. You are so ignorant of many outside things that people can't bear to witness!"
"Jia Enhou, there is no need for you to teach me a lesson!"
Wang Ziteng's face turned red and white, and he said depressedly: "How could I know how it could become like this?"
"Should you explain it, or should I explain it for you?"
Seeing Mrs. Wang's attitude of 'I'm right, who am I afraid of?', the elder restrained his smile and said: "Let's make it clear now while things are still under control, otherwise if we really can't deal with it in the future, brother Wang, don't blame the Jia family for not being able to deal with it"
Honesty!"
Wang Ziteng's face darkened, he thought about it and nodded helplessly: "Then I'll bother you Enhou!"
With this guy's approval, the eldest man was not polite anymore. He turned around and sneered at Mrs. Wang: "Brothers and sisters, it's better to explain some things clearly, so that you don't know what happened after the Wang family was sold!"
"snort!"
Mrs. Wang was not a fool. Seeing this situation, her heart sank and she said angrily: "Uncle, if you have anything to say, just tell me what you are doing in a weird way!"
hehe……
Do you really think that if Wang Ziteng confronts you, the great master will give you face?
"First of all, I want to tell my brothers and sisters that the Wang family is not that shameless. Whether Prince Zhongshun is willing to sell his face to Brother Wang is his own business!"
The elder sneered unceremoniously: "But what I want to say is that as long as Brother Wang dares to make peace with Prince Zhongshun, his job will be taken down in a few days, and if he is lucky, he can even get a military sergeant. If you are unlucky, your family will be confiscated and your reputation will be ruined. Do you believe it or not?"
"impossible!"
Mrs. Wang flatly denied it and looked back at her second brother. Her heart thumped. Wang Ziteng's expression was quite ugly, but he did not refute.
What does it mean?
Is what the elder said true?
This completely subverted Mrs. Wang's imagination. In her opinion, the second brother who holds the military power in the Beijing camp, in addition to the royal family's real power in the capital, even the cabinet ministers have to give some face.
But now...
A certain belief in her heart seemed to collapse, and she felt a tightness in her chest and difficulty breathing.
"Let me tell my siblings why this is the case!"
The elder's voice was still full of sarcasm: "Brother Wang, as the governor of the Beijing camp, is not honest and lawful in protecting the safety of the capital, but he gets involved with an ambitious and powerful prince. Do you want to die?"
Just like a temper tantrum on a sunny day, not to mention that Mrs. Wang's face instantly turned pale, and even Wang Ziteng felt frightened.
However, the elder did not stop his venomous attacks and sneered: "My younger brothers and sisters often resort to tricks and do illegal and disciplinary things in the name of the big house. Who doesn't know that you want to move the big house down? But you Have you asked Brother Wang if he would agree?"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Wang looked very embarrassed, but she tried to remain calm to cover up her panic. However, Wang Ziteng's heart was filled with panic, and he looked at the elder with inquiry and disbelief.
The Shijia Shuanghou stood aside and watched, but he was a little surprised when he heard the elder's words.
"I don't!"
Mrs. Wang's rebuttal seemed so feeble, and Jia Zheng standing beside him looked as expressionless as a clay sculpture, as if these matters had nothing to do with him.
"Brothers and sisters, I want to tell you that your second brother-in-law has no chance at all. Even if the first brother-in-law completely collapses, you will have no chance to ascend to the throne!"
The elder didn't care about so much and sneered, "Let's not talk about the collapse of the big house. Even if I give up my title to the tribesmen, I won't give you a second wife. Don't make trouble with the old lady. She can't hold me down with her filial piety." !”
These words were like thunder, shaking everyone in the room again. Looking at the indifferent attitude of the elder, it was obvious that what he said was not a joke.
Others didn't do anything, but Jia Zheng's eyes were red like a wounded beast, and he asked with disbelief: "Brother, do you really think so?"
