In the south of the city, the Taishi Mansion.
"I've met Butler Jiang!"
"Hello, Butler Jiang!"
Even though it was late at night, everything was still.
But the servants in the Taishi Mansion were still full of energy, and their eyes were as wide as bells.
Seeing the butler Jiang Lin coming to inspect, the servants were even more energetic.
Since the last time he discovered unclean "things" in front of the Grand Master's Mansion, Jiang Lin had to inspect the mansion three more times every night.
Whenever a slave is found dozing off or showing lack of energy, he will be immediately dragged into the backyard hut and punished.
From then on, late at night, all the servants in the Taishi's house had their eyes shining.
Like a night owl in the mountains, he doesn't dare to doze off anymore.
Seeing the slaves looking like they had been injected with chicken blood, Jiang Lin nodded slowly and finally felt relieved.
Just as he was about to go back to his room to take a nap, suddenly, he saw the boy watching the door running back in a hurry.
"Steward Jiang, the second lady came to visit late at night. She said it was urgent and she must meet with you!"
Hearing this, Jiang Lin frowned slightly.
Grand Master Shangguan Yi had no children, only two daughters.
Among them, the eldest daughter Shangguan Wanyue married into the palace and was named the eminent queen of the middle palace.
Although the second daughter Shangguan Hanxing is not as noble as Queen Shangguan, she is also married to Zheng Chaodong, the governor of Kaifeng, and can be regarded as the wife of a second-class official.
The two daughters are not only very different in identity, but also very different in personality.
Empress Shangguan was a little more steady, with a gloomy mind, and she tried her best to leave no trace in her work, which was highly appreciated by the Grand Master.
But Shangguan Hanxing has a reckless personality and is more impulsive, so he is not liked by the grand master.
Shangguan Hanxing would not go back to Taishi's residence to visit his relatives unless it was a festival.
I suddenly hurried back to my house tonight, wondering what the big deal was!
Although he was afraid of disturbing the Grand Master's rest, keeping Shangguan Hanxing waiting outside was not a solution to the problem.
Jiang Lin could only sigh and said: "Why don't you invite the second lady in quickly?"
"yes!"
Under the leadership of the servant, Shangguan Hanxing hurriedly stepped into the courtyard not long after.
As soon as he saw Jiang Lin, Shangguan Hanxing couldn't wait to speak: "Steward Jiang, where is my father?"
"I have something important and I need to see my father immediately!"
Jiang Linping retreated, fearing that Shangguan Hanxing's voice would be too loud and wake up the sleeping Grand Master.
"Second Miss, something important has happened. Why don't I help you think of a solution first?"
"you?"
Shangguan Hanxing looked Jiang Lin up and down, the impatience and contempt in his eyes ready to come out.
It's just a dog kept by his father, but he still dares to go over his shoulder and inquire about his own family affairs?
Don’t even look at how much you weigh!
Seeing that Jiang Lin still had no intention of helping him enter the room to report, Shangguan Hanxing finally couldn't sit still.
"Dad, dad!"
"Something happened to Yuan'er, something big happened!"
"You must help Yuan'er!"
Jiang Lin was startled when he saw Shangguan Hanxing shouting loudly and walking towards the imperial master's bedroom.
"Second Miss, please keep your voice down!"
"My lord, I've had a bad night's sleep in the past two days. I can't sleep well at night..."
How could Shangguan Hanxing care so much? He didn't listen to Jiang Lin's dissuasion at all and rushed into the house like a headless fly.
As soon as I stood in front of the door of Taishi's bedroom, I heard a "squeak" and the door opened.
"……Father!"
Seeing Shangguan Yi standing at the door with a gloomy face, Shangguan Hanxing instantly lost his arrogance and quickly lowered his head.
From childhood to adulthood, Shangguan Hanxing has respected and feared his father.
Even though she is now married and a mother, Shangguan Hanxing still feels an unspeakable sense of fear when facing her father.
Shangguan Yi had suffered from a headache in the past two days and had been having trouble sleeping.
Unexpectedly, not long after he fell asleep, he was woken up by Shangguan Hanxing's yelling, making him even more irritable.
"How unbecoming it is to shout and yell!"
Shangguan Hanxing couldn't help but tremble, then his knees softened and he knelt at Shangguan Yi's feet.
"Father, my daughter knows she is rude!"
"But now Yuan'er is in trouble, only you can save him!"
Shangguan Yi's expression became even uglier when he heard that his unsatisfactory grandson was causing trouble outside again.
Zheng Yuan grew up being held in the palm of his hand since he was a child. He was used to being pampered and pampered, and making trouble outside became commonplace.
After all, he has a father who is a governor of Kaifeng to wipe his ass, so he is naturally confident and can do whatever he wants!
Although Shangguan Yi is extremely powerful, he does not love his high-profile son-in-law Zheng Chaodong and his spoiled grandson Zheng Yuan.
Seeing Shangguan Hanxing crying with snot and tears, Shangguan Yi frowned.
"what happened!"
Shangguan Hanxing raised his hand to wipe his tears and said with sobs, "Yuan'er went out with a few friends tonight, saying they were going to attend the Prime Minister's birthday banquet."
"Unexpectedly, I didn't come back after I went there. After asking around, I found out that I was taken away by Dali Temple!"
"I must say that Yuan'er is out there stirring up trouble and beating up the people!"
"My Yuan'er has always been loyal and honest, how could he do such a thing?"
"Obviously someone framed me!"
"Wasn't he just taken away by Dali Temple?" Shangguan Yi said impatiently, "Where is his father?"
"Wouldn't it be nice to go to Dali Temple and bring the person back?"
At this point, Shangguan Hanxing cried even harder.
"That's the problem!"
"As soon as Yuan'er's father heard about this, he immediately rushed to Dali Temple."
"Unexpectedly, Dali Temple said that they were ordered to arrest people at this time, and they said they couldn't let them go!"
"They also said that Yuan'er caused too much trouble this time. He will be slapped with a slap in the face tomorrow morning and will be locked up for thirty days!"
Speaking of this, Shangguan Hanxing was extremely sad and burst into tears.
"My Yuan'er's body is very weak, how can he withstand thirty boards!"
“I don’t know what’s going on in Dali Temple now!”
"Father, only if you step forward can Yuan'er be saved!"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yi turned from impatient to slightly shocked.
Zheng Chaodong was the governor of Kaifeng and his son-in-law. No matter who the officials in the court met, they would look up to him.
The unsatisfactory grandson has been energetic since he was a child. He has been to Dali Temple several times, but in the end his father took him back.
Why was he ordered to arrest someone today, and he had already been slapped thirty times?
Even if Shangguan Yi dislikes this grandson, he is still the grandson of the Shangguan family.
In the entire Daliang, no one dares not to give himself a face!
"I was ordered to arrest someone, but whose order was it to arrest someone?"
Shangguan Yi wants to see who is so bold that he doesn't even look down on his own Shangguan family!
However, Shangguan Hanxing's words shocked Shangguan Yi.
"My daughter heard that it seems that Yuan'er was arrested by the order of the fourth prince because he beat up some poor man at the prime minister's birthday party!"
