The rumors spread so fast, and the Su family naturally realized that someone must be adding fuel to the flames.
They couldn't fight against multiple aristocratic families at once, but they could still capture one person to establish their authority.
Su Honghe immediately asked the housekeeper to find out who was behind the scenes. After finding out, he would make sure that he looked good! !
It only took the housekeeper half a day to find out how the rumor developed.
When he came to Su Honghe's study to report the incident, his words were hesitant and he couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.
"Didn't you say you have found out who is at odds with my Su family? Why don't you dare to say it?"
Su Honghe looked at the butler's hesitant appearance and secretly guessed in his heart.
Is it possible that the mastermind behind the scenes can’t even afford to offend the Su family?
But there are not many people in the capital that he can't afford to offend. He and they have always been on the same page.
There was no need for them to suddenly target him, right?
"Sir, the reason why the rumors about the second young lady in the capital spread so quickly and have so many people talking about them is that... it was the eldest lady who took action."
When it came to the next few words, the butler's voice was obviously much softer.
But there were only two of them in the study, and even though the housekeeper lowered his voice, Su Honghe could still hear him clearly.
"You are saying that the unfavorable rumors against Ruowei from the outside world have not stopped, but have become more and more intense. It was Su Qianxi who did it?"
Su Honghe frowned, his voice filled with uncontrollable anger.
"According to the results of the investigation by the servants, this matter was indeed done by the eldest lady."
The housekeeper lowered his head, glanced at his master secretly, and added a few words in a low voice.
"And I heard that the eldest lady has been very arrogant recently."
"Whenever the people outside lose interest in the affairs between the second young lady and the eldest lady, the eldest lady will dress up very gorgeously and take to the streets ostentatiously."
This is one of the reasons why people continue to talk about the second lady's affairs and their interest in it has not diminished.
In addition to the fact that there are people behind the rumors, it is also because the eldest lady, one of the parties involved, appears from time to time, which makes people forget it even if they want to.
"Also, now the rumors are not only talking about the matter between the eldest lady and the second lady, but the matter has also spread to the Su family."
At this point, the housekeeper seemed to have some scruples, fell silent, and did not continue.
"What did they say about the Su family?"
Su Honghe frowned when he saw the butler's behavior. He always felt that what the butler said next would definitely not be what he wanted to hear.
"They say... about the Su family, who regard fish eyes as pearls. They don't hurt their own children, but they dote on fake ones whose origins they don't know. They don't even care about blood and family ties. They must be... Is······"
The housekeeper hesitated for a long time about the next words, but couldn't say them out.
"What it is, just tell me directly."
Seeing that the housekeeper couldn't finish his words clearly after talking for a long time, Su Honghe was a little dissatisfied and asked him to finish his words quickly.
"They say that the Su family is a bunch of fools. If someone like me can become the prime minister, there must be some shady deal going on here."
"Asshole!!"
As soon as the housekeeper finished speaking, Su Honghe was so angry that he picked up the inkstone on the side and threw it out.
"My lord, please forgive me."
The housekeeper knelt down and admitted his mistake.
"Su Qianxi—this evil obstacle is going to turn upside down!!"
Su Honghe never expected that the many unfavorable rumors about Su Ruowei that appeared in the capital in just a few days were actually Su Qianxi's handiwork.
Su Qianxi won't give up until she breaks up this family, right?
Over the years, he has been cautious as an official, always telling his subordinates and family members not to act recklessly based on his status outside, lest others take advantage of him.
He was always careful and cautious, fearing that if he stepped in the wrong place, it would bring disaster to the Su family.
At first, there were rumors about Su Ruowei that were detrimental to Su Ruowei, and he had others suppress them.
But he realized that behind the scenes, not only the daughter of another family was helping to stir up the trouble, but also his political opponents in the court were also fishing in troubled waters.
He soon realized that he had protected the Su family so well over the years that even if his political opponents wanted to do something, they had no way of doing it and could only wait silently for the opportunity.
He could not have imagined that the one who finally gave them the opportunity to take action was his own daughter! !
When she sent people to find Su Qianxi back, her mother once said that she would find someone to figure it out. Su Qianxi was at odds with their Su family. If Su Qianxi was found, the family would be uneasy in the future, and in serious cases it might lead to the destruction of the Su family.
He never took his mother's words seriously.
After all, before they found out that Ruowei was not their child, Ruowei had always used Su Qianxi's birth date.
It makes no sense that if the birth date is used on Su Ruowei, there will be no problems, but if it is used on Su Qianxi, it will cause trouble.
He only thought that his mother had met that smooth-talking charlatan and was deceived.
Now it seems that my mother has really found a real master.
It turns out that although Su Qianxi was very difficult at home, she was still obedient and didn't cause any trouble.
Now his wings are hardened and he is against him everywhere.
"master--"
While Su Honghe was furious, a soft voice came from outside the house.
Su Honghe heard the sound and looked over, and saw his wife walking in with her maid.
"What...what happened?"
Mrs. Su looked at the messy study room, which looked like it had been ransacked. She couldn't help frowning and asking questions.
"Why is the master so angry? But what happened that couldn't be solved?"
As Mrs. Su spoke, she took out a bowl of tonic soup from the food box brought by the maid and placed it in front of Su Honghe.
"It's okay, why are you here? Just leave these things to the servants, don't tire yourself."
Su Honghe forced a smile, not wanting to worry his wife. He waved his hand and asked the housekeeper to go out.
"etc--"
Although Mrs. Su has been somewhat naive due to being pampered by her husband and son over the years, she is not completely incapable of reading people's faces.
She had just heard her husband's furious voice all the way away. Now her husband was hiding it and pretending that nothing had happened. How could this not make her curious?
"Butler, I won't tell you, but you will tell me."
The housekeeper glanced at Su Honghe and said hesitantly, "This..."
The old man is here, what should he say?
"Master, you and I are husband and wife, is there anything I can't know?"
Mrs. Su knew what the housekeeper was worried about at a glance. She turned to look at Su Honghe and said dissatisfied, "Is it possible that you have done something that you can't forgive me for, so you don't dare to let me know?"
