MTL - Vicious Male Partner is a Girl-Chapter 43 Everyone hates [Second update]
In the Mingguang Palace, the Supreme Being is now listening to Shen Fengzhang's detailed report on last night's situation again.
Hearing the wonderful part, he not only clapped his hands and applauded, but also heard that Shen Fengzhang and the others dug up so many treasures from the secret room, the present Supreme Being couldn't help but let out a low sigh.
Most disciples of aristocratic families do not lack gold, silver, treasures and other external things. In contrast, the poor men he promoted were prone to corruption and bribery. With more money being greedy and a growing appetite, I have more and more petty thoughts, and I am no longer as devoted to the court and loyal to him as I was at the beginning.
Putting that melancholy behind for a while, the Supreme Master looked at Shen Fengzhang with satisfaction on his face. When he spoke again, he didn't even use the names Shen Qing and Feng Qing, but as if he was calling him a nephew.
"Azhang, come and play a game of Shuanglu with Gu Gu."
Shen Fengzhang readily accepted.
The two sat down at both ends of the chessboard. Today's Supreme One asked Shen Fengzhang for some details while throwing the dice.
"The booklet you took out really recorded Fang Huaisheng's acceptance of bribes?"
Shen Fengzhang pushed the chess piece forward in his hand, and said with a light smile: "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter whether the booklet is real or not. As long as Fang Huaisheng thinks that such a booklet is enough."
Today's Supreme One was taken aback, apparently he did not expect Shen Fengzhang to be so bold and do such a thing. But when he came back to his senses, he thought that Fang Huaisheng was frightening himself, and was frightened by a fake booklet, so he couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Azhang, you are really good at doing things..." The present Supreme Master shook his head, with a smile still in his voice, "I like to use swords more than your father."
Shen Fengzhang smiled faintly. Although the brochure was fake, she already knew that Fang Huaisheng was really taking bribes.
Pushing the black chess forward, the Supreme Master thought of another question, "How do you know that Fang Huaisheng hid all the stolen goods in the secret room under the flower bed?" According to Shen Fengzhang's situation at the time, she didn't seem to hit it by mistake.
"Actually, Fang Huaisheng himself told Wei Chen."
"Oh?" The current supreme being was completely aroused curiosity.
"When Weichen took out the brochure and threatened Fang Huaisheng with the stolen goods he took bribes, he subconsciously glanced at the flower beds. Afterwards, Weichen ordered people to search the whole house, and he looked everywhere, except he didn't glance at the flower beds. At that time, Weichen felt that this flower bed might be tricky."
The dice-throwing hand of today's Supreme paused. Hearing Shen Fengzhang's words, he was slightly moved. Shen Fengzhang said it lightly, but it was late at night, even with torches lighting it, it was still very dim. It was not easy for Shen Fengzhang to notice the subtle changes in Fang Huaisheng's eyes under such circumstances.
In fact, the evidence Shen Fengzhang said was all deduced by her on the basis of knowing the answer.
She had known for a long time that the secret room where Fang Huaisheng hid bribes was a flower bed, so she noticed the slight change in Fang Huaisheng's eyes towards the flower bed.
In the original book, it was mentioned that after the male protagonist ascended the throne, he acted vigorously and resolutely ruled the court. One of the measures is to clean up corrupt officials. Fang Huaisheng is the official who was cleaned up by the hero. It is mentioned in the book that he likes to hoard gold and jewelry, even though his life is simple and ordinary, but as long as he thinks of the gold he has hidden, Fang Huaisheng will be able to give birth to boundless happiness.
In the novel, after the male protagonist ordered someone to raid Fang Huaisheng's house, the gold and silver treasures he found were twice as much as they are now!
Today's Supreme is no longer entangled in this matter. While playing chess, he told Shen Fengzhang to thoroughly investigate this matter, and find out the people behind Fang Huaisheng together! Come on, knock the mountain to shake the tiger, and beat these poor officials hard.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best and will never fail Your Majesty's trust."
After taking over this task, Shen Fengzhang has been thinking about how to proceed with the investigation these days. If you think about it casually, you know that Fang Huaisheng dared to plunder so much property at the feet of the emperor, there must be someone behind him to support him. Although the identities of these people were only briefly mentioned in the original book, Shen Fengzhang was able to guess who these people were.
The problem is that she can no longer deceive them like she did with Fang Huaisheng when dealing with these people. These people will not be fooled like Fang Huaisheng.
The current entry point is naturally Fang Huaisheng, but Fang Huaisheng refused to speak up, insisting that there is no one behind him for instructions, and everything is done by himself.
Shen Fengzhang's investigation was at a deadlock for a while.
Before I knew it, half a month had passed. Shen Fengzhang also celebrated her birthday while slowly advancing the progress of the investigation.
July 18th is the birthday of Shen Fengzhang and Shen Xiangpei.
She and Shen Xiangpei were born on the same day, and it is said that they were only a few minutes apart.
Shen Fengzhang's birthday was very low-key, and now she only wants to do a good job, and she doesn't have the mind to make a fuss. On the contrary, Shen Xiangpei carefully planned a birthday banquet.
On July 19th, Shen Fengzhang returned to the mansion from the outside, and as soon as he approached the Shixing County mansion, he saw a large number of ox carts parked at the gate of the county mansion. She got off the horse and walked in, the sound of silk and bamboo kept pouring into her ears.
It was only then that she remembered that today was the day when Shen Xiangpei held a birthday party.
Hand over the reins to the approaching servant. Shen Fengzhang walked to the backyard, passed by the garden of the mansion, and happened to see many people, men and women, enjoying singing and dancing, drinking and having fun in the garden.
"Ape, isn't that your brother?" Someone whispered to Shen Xiangpei.
Zheng Yuanting, the cousin of Zheng's family who was also in the garden, heard the sound with sharp ears, and hurriedly turned around to look around, just in time to meet Shen Fengzhang's eyes. He immediately became excited and waved to Shen Fengzhang.
Seeing this, Shen Fengzhang simply walked over.
However, as soon as she walked over, she realized that unknowingly, her treatment among this group of people was even worse than that of the original owner. Almost everyone avoided her, refused to look at her twice, occasionally raised their heads to look at her, and their eyes were full of disgust and disdain.
Thinking of what he had done during this period of time, Shen Fengzhang frowned, and a playful smile flashed across his eyes.
Shen Jun was treated completely opposite to her.
Shen Fengzhang saw that in the crowd, except for some aristocratic sons who held their own identities and disdained to be with Shen Jun, most of the others had a good attitude towards Shen Jun. A group of people were discussing poetry and books with Shen Jun.
"Brother, why did you come back home?" Zheng Yuanting was impatient to hear other people recite poems and go against each other, so he went straight to Shen Fengzhang's side. He smiled and looked at Shen Fengzhang, "Brother, I heard that you have done a lot of important things recently, let me listen to you carefully."
Zheng Yuanting was also somewhat deviant in his heart, his elder brother and father scolded Shen Fengzhang for opportunism, arrogance, domineering, domineering, bad character, and being a courtier to the present Supreme. He didn't say anything, but in his heart he felt that Cousin Fengzhang was extremely powerful.
Shen Fengzhang saw that he really didn't have the slightest grievance on his face, and that he really wanted to hear her tell the story, the expression in his eyes softened slightly.
However, her answer was—"There is nothing to say."
Shen Fengzhang patted Zheng Yuanting on the shoulder twice. Compared with usual, his words were a bit more gentle and intimate, "Go back quickly. Brother, I have to leave beforehand." For his own good, it is better not to go too far with her. close.
With a strong wrist, she pushed Zheng Yuanting into the crowd. Seeing that Zheng Yuanting was immediately dragged away by Zheng's cousin as soon as he left her side, Shen Fengzhang slightly curled the corners of his lips, a few traces of contempt and disdain naturally emerged from it.
Shen Fengzhang originally thought that since he was here, he would drop by to congratulate Shen Xiangpei. However, seeing the little ladies surrounding Shen Xiangpei looking at her in disgust, she simply rejected the idea and turned around to leave.
Xiao Wuniang, who was standing next to Shen Xiangpei, was relieved when she saw this, "Finally left." Xiao Wuniang, who used to be attracted by Shen Fengzhang's free and easy behavior and handsome appearance, now has a face full of disgust.
Who knows, Shen Fengzhang will investigate Fang Neishi because Fang Neishi offended her earlier, and she just wants to avenge her private revenge!
Coincidentally, Fang Neishi really committed corruption and accepting bribes, but was caught by Shen Fengzhang by mistake.
However, when Shen Fengzhang broke into Fang's house, he didn't have the current Supreme Commander at all, he was arrogant and domineering, disregarding the law!
However, today's Supreme Master didn't know what kind of ecstasy soup she had poured into him. After being deceived by her, he quickly promoted her to be one of the Nine Ministers. She is becoming more and more reckless! During this period of time, how many people were trembling by her in the name of investigating corruption.
A person like this who has a small belly, who will get revenge, abuses power, gains power by pleasing the current supreme, retaliates wantonly like a mad dog, and uses cruel and ruthless methods, she was blind to think her good at the beginning!
"Yes, Ape, it's a good thing you didn't call your brother over." The aristocratic lady who said this inadvertently caught a glimpse of Shen Juan in the crowd, and added: "I'm talking about your second brother."
Wearing a delicate goose-yellow dress, the girl who looked like she had been spoiled and grown up frowned, "Sister Ape, to tell you the truth. I didn't even want to come to your birthday party today. Don't say I ran into you." Your second brother, even if I look at her more, I feel that my eyes are dirty." Wang Shisanniang muttered in a low voice, "If it weren't for sister, you are nice to me, and brother decided to come here again. I would never Step into the Shen residence."
Shen Xiangpei maintained a stiff smile on his face, but his heart was bleeding. From childhood to adulthood, how much effort it took to maintain the good reputation of the county government and make friends with so many young ladies from aristocratic families, but the second brother ruined all of this in less than two months!
The nails pinched a crescent in the palm, and Shen Xiangpei still maintained a decent smile on his face. She handed handkerchiefs to several handkerchiefs, especially Wang Shisanniang, who had the most special status and needed her to make good friends and maintain relationships: "Forget it, don't talk about it. I invited a few musicians who have just arrived in Jiankang today. Come here. One of them is particularly good. I'll let them come up and perform."
Shen Xiangpei's original intention was to change the previous topic, but Wang Shisanniang's face suddenly changed when the musicians came up.
She looked at Shen Xiangpei suddenly, with hatred in her eyes, "Er Niang, what do you mean?!"
Shen Xiangpei looked at the leading musician in shock, and hurriedly turned to Wang Shisanniang to explain. However, Wang Shisanniang has always been pampered and has a bad temper. At this moment, she turned her head, stomped her feet, and shouted angrily at Shen Xiangpei: "I will tell brother!"
After she finished speaking, she quickly left and walked towards the crowd with an angry look on her face, determined to find Wang Twelve Lang and file a complaint.
"Thirteen mothers. Thirteen mothers!"
Shen Xiangpei glanced at the musician at the head, who looked five points similar to Wang Shisanniang, and after changing into Wang Shisanniang's clothes that were almost exactly the same, he immediately looked like seven points.
How could a high-minded noblewoman like Wang Shisanniang tolerate a lowly prostitute who looked similar to her and wore the same clothes.
Xiao Wuniang looked at the musician inexplicably, and finally looked away, and sighed softly at Shen Xiangpei, "Ape, you have completely offended Wang Shisanniang this time."
She could see that Shen Xiangpei was being plotted against. However, this is the Shen family, the place where Shen Xiangpei grew up. With her status, who can plot against her here? She is willing to believe that Ape is being plotted against, but Wang Shisanniang is not necessarily willing to believe it and is willing to forgive Ape.
The palm was pierced, and there was a burst of pain. Shen Xiangpei immediately ordered those prostitutes to be taken down and locked up, while she chased in the direction where Wang Shisanniang left, and wanted to explain to Wang Shisanniang and Shi Shilang.
However, she searched for a long time but could not find Wang Twelve Lang in the garden.
Only then did she recall that although Twelfth Lang had come, she was too busy making friends with the noble daughter of the family and taking good care of Thirteenth Niang, so she didn't seem to see him in the garden. Where will he go?
Shen Xiangpei became more and more anxious. An ominous premonition emerged in her heart. She took people out.
Finally, she saw Wang Twelve Lang standing by a small lake in the distance. Feeling relieved, she was just about to take someone there immediately, but suddenly her footsteps stopped, her face was extremely ugly.
Wang Twelve Lang took two steps aside, revealing the shadowed figure. With that figure, that dress, and that appearance, she looks like the third wife of the second room!
The two of them actually talked and had a great time by the lake alone!
