"Is it wrong to speak against the late emperor? Impeachment by the imperial envoy?"

Even though Minglan didn't understand government affairs, she could still realize that something was wrong.

"Brother, what does this envoy want to do?"

"Could it be that someone wants to target Ningyuan Houfu?"

Minglan keenly discovered the key point of the matter and immediately raised it.

You must know that Gu Tingye is just a dandy in the capital at the moment. Even if he makes a little limelight, in the eyes of those big shots, it is just a joke. It will not attract their attention at all, let alone attract their attention.

Take action.

But this time the impeachment of the imperial envoy is different. This shows that someone is eyeing Gu Tingye, or to put it more clearly, someone wants to take action against the Ningyuan Hou Mansion and criticize the Gu family.

As for Gu Tingye's slander against the late emperor, it was just a teaser.

"hehe!"

"Sister, you are wrong!"

Sheng Changquan shook his head at Minglan and began to explain to her the general situation of the DPRK and China.

"Sister, you don't understand!"

"Although there are conflicts between the civil and military forces of this dynasty, they are determined not to provoke them now!"

Sheng Changquan looked up in the direction of the palace and seemed to see the scene there: "Because, the time is not right at this moment!"

"Wrong timing?"

Minglan didn't quite understand: "Why do you say that?"

Is there something special about this period of time?

"right!"

Sheng Changquan turned his head and looked at Minglan, predicting categorically: "At this time, there is absolutely no chance that anything big will happen to the court!"

"Scholars have said that the current focus of the imperial court is divided into two points."

Sheng Changquan explained: "One is about the ownership of the East Palace, and the other is about Yanzhou!"

"As long as the officials do not completely decide on these two matters, nothing else will happen in the court, let alone someone who will take action against an honorable person like Ning Yuanhou!"

Although the current Marquis of Ningyuan, Gu Yankai, does not have top-notch talents, he is still a good general. He can not only act as a brave vanguard officer on the battlefield, but also be a city defender who can protect the army's retreat.

Although he does not have world-shaking talents, he is not a mediocre person either.

After all the founding generals of the previous generation passed away, among their descendants, Gu Yankai was considered to be a very capable one. Therefore, the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion was considered a powerful force in the military.

If someone really wants to use Gu Tingye's incident to criticize the Ningyuan Hou Mansion, then unless they are the top officials among the civil servants, such as Shangshu and Ge Lao, if others wait to do so, they are probably asking for their own death.

Seeing that Minglan still seemed a little confused, Sheng Changquan had no choice but to explain in a simple way: "Sister, you have to remember!"

"The Marquis of Ningyuan is one of the founders of this dynasty, and the relationship between their ancestors is even more complicated and well-connected."

"If nothing else, let's just say that the current British Duke has a very good relationship with Mr. Gu. The two families also interact with each other from time to time to enhance their friendship."

"So, let alone Uncle Gu's incident, it's not a big deal at all. Even if it is, it won't endanger the entire Ningyuan Marquis Mansion!"

After hearing what Sheng Changquan said, Minglan vaguely understood what he meant.

"Brother, tell me, what's going on with this envoy?"

In fact, Minglan already had some guesses in her mind, but she did not dare to say it clearly. She just said: "Is it true that this imperial envoy is truly loyal and patriotic, and is pure and filial to the late emperor?"

"hehe!"

"Sister, are you kidding me?"

Sheng Changquan was amused by Minglan's words: "Sister, how could there be such a person in this world?"

"I'm not talking about others, let's just say that today's officials have not done this to the late emperor in their hearts!"

"That……"

"Then tell me, what's going on?"

After all, Minglan still remembers Gu Tingye's kindness in her heart, so she is also very concerned about his affairs.

"Alas~"

Thinking of the whole story, Sheng Changquan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Actually, this matter can be regarded as a family matter of Uncle Gu and his family."

At this time, Sheng Changquan's voice was a little strange, as if it contained some kind of emotion.

Is that a sneer?

Or, it can be called——

ridicule!

"Sister, have you ever thought about it, when Uncle Gu said this, he said it at home, so why was it heard by others?"

"Even, will it be spread outside and fall into the ears of the envoy?"

Before Minglan could figure out the logic behind it, Sheng Changquan continued: "It's very simple. There is actually a trace of Gu family in this matter!"

"this……"

Minglan's guess was confirmed, but she would rather she didn't guess right.

"Could it be said that there is someone in the Gu family..."

"Someone...is deliberately trying to harm Uncle Gu's future?"

Minglan's mouth felt inexplicably dry.

"Um!"

Sheng Changquan replied softly and said: "I have asked people to inquire before, saying that after this matter spread, someone heard the sound of Uncle Gu and his eldest brother arguing!"

"So, if nothing unexpected happens, it should be the work of Prince Ningyuan, the eldest brother of Second Uncle Gu, Gu Tingyu!"

"Gu Tingyu?"

Minglan tightened the handkerchief in her hand, her face looking heavy.

"But...but..."

"Why does he act like this?"

Minglan was confused: "Is it just because Uncle Gu is not his biological brother?"

Everyone also knows about Ning Yuanhou’s family affairs.

After all, no matter when and where, as long as it is something related to the back house, it will generally spread very quickly.

"Not entirely, right?"

Sheng Changquan nodded first, and then shook his head: "Actually, it is difficult for upright officials to deal with household affairs. We outsiders don't know the reason behind this."

"Anyway, there must be some special reason for this. Otherwise, the Gu family would not be able to remain so peaceful."

After this incident, the Ningyuan Hou Mansion remained calm. Except that Gu Tingye moved out of the Ningyuan Hou Mansion directly, Gu Tingyu was still in front of his eldest son, as if nothing had happened to the entire Gu family.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "This..."

After hearing what Sheng Changquan said about the Gu family's reaction, Minglan felt a little sorry for Gu Tingye and felt that he was very pitiful!

"Is this how Mr. Gu, the father, just lets Uncle Gu be bullied like this by his elder brother?"

Minglan was still angry for Gu Tingye.

"Not sure!"

"But I estimate that their Ningyuan Marquis Mansion is just like our Sheng family, with a lot of privacy and secrets!"

Sheng Changquan shrugged his shoulders and said this in a joking tone.

"ah!"

Minglan, who was originally angry, glared at her brother angrily!

"Brother, what are you talking about?"

"How come our family is the same as Ningyuan Houfu?"

Minglan, who had an inexplicable longing for family affection, didn't want to hear such words, and immediately became a little unhappy.

"well!"

"Sister, I said the wrong thing, don't be angry!"

Seeing Minglan's appearance, Sheng Changquan could only admit his mistake with a smile.

"snort!"

"Brother, please stop talking nonsense next time!"

Minglan gently poked Sheng Changquan's head with her finger and warned softly: "Otherwise, if someone hears it, it will damage the reputation of our Sheng family!"
