The Fang family was not brought down by Xu Mo alone.
It was Xu Mo and Fang Yuan who took action at the same time, one openly making mistakes, the other secretly causing trouble.
After being abandoned by his family, Fang Yuan held a grudge and took revenge. This seemed to be a good reason to instigate the Zhu family and Tao family to rebel.
Now that the Fang family has completely collapsed, what about the Zhu family and the Tao family?
Where can Fang Yuan go with these two first-class families?
Jiang Sheng and Zheng Ruqian had puzzled faces and looked at each other several times but couldn't figure it out.
Xu Mo said softly, "Second Prince."
The second prince, who had been thinking about it in the palace after the concubine selection banquet, seemed to have completely lost his presence and was silent in an unknown corner.
Even after Fang Yuan disappeared, the Tao family and the Zhu family also calmed down, almost in a state of having no desires or desires.
But if they really wanted nothing, why did they follow the Fang family in the first place?
"I don't believe that these two families are not utilitarian. The only thing that can make them betray the Fang family is greater than the interests of following the Fang family." Xu Mo said softly, "For example, fully supporting the second prince and getting first-class benefits that can only be obtained from the Qianfang family. From the power of the dragon.”
"Why can't it be the eldest prince?" Jiang Sheng asked confusedly.
"I know this." Zheng Ruqian responded quickly, "If it is really secretly supporting the eldest prince, it is impossible for the Ju family to speak for the Fang family. It is only possible that the Fang family will turn to the eldest prince, and Fang Yuan will turn to the second prince."
This father and son turned against each other because of their own interests and killed each other because of hatred, which is really sad.
"The most important thing is that Fang Yuan and the second prince both know how to retreat in order to advance, and they also know how to hide and accumulate power." Xu Mo closed his eyes, "They should be waiting, waiting for the strength to be strong enough, and waiting for the fisherman to profit."
Taking action at the right time is the wisdom a lurker should have.
"Then they won't wait half a lifetime." Jiang Sheng wrinkled his face.
Xu Mo shook his head, "Don't worry, it won't happen."
One thing that is very noteworthy is the beheading of the Fang family after review, one year later.
Among those who were beheaded was Fang Yuan's mother Zhu, who was also the direct daughter of the Zhu family and an insider of Fang Yuan's escape.
There is no doubt that a mother can die for her children.
But Fang Yuan intended to lead the Zhu family to help the second prince, so how could he let his mother, who was the link, die - he clearly had countless ways to let Zhu escape, but he still watched Zhu trapped in prison.
Xu Mo couldn't tell whether this was Zhu's insistence on sacrifice or Fang Yuan's confidence that he could rescue his mother within a year.
If it is the latter, Fengjing will be in chaos within this year.
"Let's wait and see." He murmured softly, "The second prince is completely silent, how can the eldest prince wait quietly."
After losing the Fang family, the Zhu family and the Tao family, only the Min family was left in the Ju family, and most of their wings were cut off.
The reputation of the third princess was ruined by the He family, and the marriage was put on hold.
The whole Fengjing was in chaos.
The things to be happy about are probably the prosperous business of the mutton restaurant and the fact that Jiang Chengfeng and Zhao Yuan were successfully promoted to civil servants.
Even Zhu Sihuan passed this examination and has the right to participate in the examination next year.
Several people gathered at Baiweisheng to express their gratitude to Xu Mo.
Zhu Sihuan held up his wine glass and choked up, "I'm not a good person, and I can't be said to be upright, but I don't want to do anything detrimental to Brother Xu in this life. Literary men have their own pride, and making a mistake once is enough."
After saying that, drink it all in one gulp.
Zhao Yuan substituted tea for wine, "Brother Xu is the hardest-working and best student I have ever seen, and he is also the person I admire most in my life. Unfortunately, my mother said you can't drink alcohol, otherwise you will break the thick-wristed stick behind the door."
Everyone couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"In my opinion, whether it's tea or wine, it's all a matter of sincerity. Today, thanking Brother Xu is the key." Jiang Chengfeng said smoothly, "Brother Xu's excellence is a role model for our generation, but the most important thing is his generosity in his heart. With Dafang, if Brother Xu hadn't come forward in advance, how could Jiang Juren be here today?"
Not everyone is willing to teach the truly crucial teaching and guidance.
Master is hiding something private, let alone a classmate.
Xu Mo deserves everyone's admiration for reaching this point.
In the private room, cups were being exchanged, and there was a knock on the door. The second brother from Baiweisheng came to stop him, but he was scolded and pushed away.
Xu Mo put down the tea cup, Zhao Yuan's eyes widened in anger, Zhu Sihuan clenched his fists, and Jiang Chengfeng stood up directly.
The cold, arrogant and arrogant Fang Yuan from back then has disappeared. He couldn't find it even after digging three feet into the Dali Temple. It is impossible for him to appear here.
Could it be the eldest prince Zhu Changhong?
Or maybe the children of Ju Jiamin's family come here to cause trouble?
Xu Mo was raising his eyebrows in thought when the door to the private room was pushed open and Qi Huai appeared with An Jun.
"Well, you guys, if you eat meat secretly without me, you are no longer brothers." He laughed and cursed, sitting down very naturally.
An Jun was a little shy and didn't know how to integrate these children from aristocratic families.
Xu Mo went over and grabbed his wrist, placed him next to him, and ordered him to add meat and chopsticks.
Whether you are a child of an aristocratic family or an ordinary citizen, once you pass the imperial examination, you will no longer be the ordinary self you once were.
An Jun had already obtained a sixth-grade official position in the Hanlin Academy, and he was outstanding in literary and conversational skills. He could easily integrate as long as he relaxed.
Young people in their early twenties have ideals and feelings. In the aroma of mutton that fills the room, they change glasses and sing over the wine.
The sound was heard outside. Jiang Sheng, who was fiddling with his abacus, paused and commented seriously, "It's not a bad song."
Zheng Ruqian grinned beside her and stretched out his hand to give her the back of the head.
The angry shouting must have been provoked, and maybe he would have to circle the cabinet twice, one chasing and the other escaping, having fun doing it.
When he was tired of chasing, Jiang Sheng put his hands on his hips and panted, "The third brother is tired of eating this mutton. The fourth brother and the fifth brother haven't eaten it yet. Do you want to give them some?"
To be precise, give some to Wen Zhiyun.
As a prince, Chang Yan could always eat the mutton sold in the imperial city.
Poor Wen Xiaosi, he could neither appear in the fifth prince's palace openly nor secretly return to the second courtyard.
Living alone in Taiyuan Hospital was a bit lonely, but thinking about his fifth brother who was also in the palace, he felt that his life could still go on.
After all, Jiang Sheng felt sorry for his fourth brother, so he secretly wrapped two fist-sized lamb legs and asked Wu Ziyou of the Wu family to take them over.
Wu Ziyou swallowed as he smelled the aroma, "Miss Jiang, can I have a share of this meat?"
Jiang Sheng's eyes turned into crescent moons, "Young Master Wu is always welcome at Baiweisheng. We have everything fried, grilled and fried over there. It's all on my account."
Generous and bright.
Wu Ziyou happily put the meat into his arms, drove into the imperial city, then transferred to the Imperial Hospital, and finally stuffed it into Wen Zhiyun's palm at the door.
"Eat it, your sister gave it to you."
These seven words made Wen Zhiyun almost cry.
But he couldn't cry. He had to massage Tianjia's shoulders and neck to clear his veins.
"Going again?" Wu Ziyou smacked his lips, "It seems that your massage skills are quite good, and you can capture even the hearts of the Tian family."
Wen Zhiyun pursed his lips and smiled, "In fact, I haven't been there a few times. From the beginning of the year to now, I have only seen it twenty or thirty times."
"Isn't that enough?" Wu Ziyou yelled, "My father only sees the Tian family three or five times a year. You are... that's all. You go get your massage, and I'll eat my mutton raw at Baiwei."
He waved and turned around, looking both lonely and excited.
Wen Zhiyun knew that it was the new shop opened by his second brother, and he felt even more happy. He walked to a quiet place and couldn't help but take out the meat and smell it.
I couldn't bear to eat it, and it was too late to return it to the hospital, so I could only wrap it in a handkerchief and hide it deep in the medicine box.
The mutton smell of the cooled mutton is very light, and the medicinal aroma is not noticeable at all.
But Wen Zhiyun was timid and sniffed several times for fear of leaking any smell.
After entering the emperor's bedroom, the father-in-law who led the way bowed and stepped back. He huddled behind the gauze tent again, sniffing and inspecting deeply.
At this time, the woman's charming voice came, with a strong coquettishness and obsession, "Your Majesty...it has been twenty years, but you are not willing to give me an identity so that I can live and die in the same quilt as you." Same hole?"
