"Shen'er, where did you hear this? Is it true?"
As soon as she heard that her precious son was being taken care of by her immediate superior, Mrs. Hua immediately became anxious and asked hurriedly.
"…………"
"What I said to the old lady is of course true. This is what I spent a lot of money to find out.
He Shen chuckled and said calmly: "Grandson, I just want to tell my second uncle that since I am the head of the Ministry of Rites, I must do things honestly..."
"Don't spend three days fishing and two days drying the nets, otherwise even if you have a surname with gold characters like Niu Hulu, I'm afraid it won't work."
"Second brother, is this really the case?"
After receiving the exact news from Heshen, Mrs. Hua no longer cared about anything else and looked at her second son with concern on her face.
"..."
"Mother, my son has let you down!"
Hearing his mother ask this, Chang Rong's face was full of shame, and for a moment, he couldn't say anything.
"…………"
"Oh my God, what the hell is going on?"
Seeing Chang Bao exposing his shortcomings, Mrs. Hua suddenly panicked.
The old lady who had been living in the He Mansion had never known that her second son, who was extremely smart and motivated, was in such a miserable state in the Ministry of Rites.
"Hey, I've known for a long time that the Ministry of Rites is not a good place. I shouldn't have let you go there to gain qualifications in the first place!"
"How about I find a way to recruit someone and transfer you to another yamen?"
After Mrs. Hua heard what Chang Rong said, she did not blame Chang Rong for his incompetence. Instead, she felt that the Ministry of Rites was not suitable for her second son, and she immediately made the idea to change the yamen.
After all, Mrs. Hua always thought her second son was excellent.
What she is thinking now is that if her second son is not doing well, there might be something wrong with the environment. If the environment changes, maybe things will get better...
When the second uncle Chang Rong heard this, his face was full of surprise, and his eyes towards Mrs. Hua were full of excitement and joy...
Chang Rong had long felt that he was not suitable to stay in an yamen with too many old scholars like the Ministry of Rites. It would be great if he could be replaced by the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Punishments, which would be a truly powerful yamen.
"..."
"Old lady, you should save your worries. If you want to change the yamen, how can it be so easy?"
"This is not like when grandpa and father were still alive. People were leaving the tea. Officials of the six departments would not sell the face of the current Hefu..."
When He Shen saw his second uncle Chang Rong who was eager to try, he directly poured cold water on him.
"Shen'er, what are you talking about here?"
Seeing what He Shen said, Mrs. Hua immediately became upset and said angrily: "Didn't you also get the official position of the head of the household, Bo, through connections within the clan?
"Don't your second uncle just want to change his office? What's wrong?"
"…………"
"This is different. It's completely different. On my side, after I passed the exam and passed the exam, Uncle Zongyan took the initiative to help."
"It's a kind of investment for the underachieving talents within the family. It's an early investment."
He Shen explained calmly, and then his eyes became extremely cold and he spoke in a serious tone.
"And the second uncle has not only failed to make any contribution to the Niu Hulu family in recent years, but has also gotten into some trouble. Under such circumstances, how could Uncle Zongyan help him."
"The real power vacancies in the Six Ministries are not rotten cabbages in the field. You can take them as you want without anyone caring about them."
"In the capital, there are still so many Jinshi without official titles. Everyone's eyes are wide open..."
"Under such circumstances, the second uncle can go wherever he wants. Is this possible?"
"…………"
"However, Chang Rong is Zong Yan's cousin. They grew up together. The relationship between them is much closer than the relationship between you and Zong Yan."
Mrs. Hua said unconvinced.
"…………"
"That relationship was many years ago. I'm afraid it has faded away a long time ago..."
"Besides, didn't Uncle Zongyan give Second Uncle a chance?"
He Shen said with a sneer.
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in Jiale Hall instantly became extremely depressing, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Chang Rong's face was full of shame and he lowered his head and did not dare to hum. Even Mrs. Hua was speechless for a moment.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk about something else..."
Seeing that she was wrong in this regard, Mrs. Hua quickly changed the topic and said in a very dissatisfied tone.
"Previously, you transferred away all the favors and connections of Hefu in the army. Does this matter need to be discussed again?"
Mrs. Hua said greedily.
"…………"
Upon hearing this, Chang Rong immediately became energetic. Apparently, he was ready to break the contract.
"..."
"Old lady, what do you mean when you say this now?"
He Shen snorted coldly when he heard this. His eyes were as cold as knives, which made Mrs. Hua and Chang Rong tremble with fear.
"The deal has been completed long ago, but now you want to regret it, right?
He Shen gritted his teeth and said every word, the murderous aura on his body enveloped the main hall.
"…………"
Mrs. Hua, who felt that her life was in danger, softened her tone instantly and said this.
"Shen'er, isn't that what I mean? What I mean is, why don't you discuss it with me?"
"..."
"Hahahaha, what's there to discuss?"
He Shen, on his side, first raised his head and laughed fiercely, and then said this.
"..."
"Shen'er, what's your attitude?"
"Did I say something wrong?!
Hearing Heshen's laughter, Mrs. Hua became even more flustered.
"…………"
"That's right, what you said is right. My second uncle Chang Rong is a proud man of heaven. His failure in doing well is due to the environment, not to him personally."
He Shen continued sarcastically, using true and cruel words to reveal the truth that his second uncle, Chang Rong, had been hiding all this time.
"…………"
Mrs. Hua was so angry that her eyes were burning, and she wanted to eat Heshen alive.
And the second uncle Chang Rong, I don’t know what he thought, but he didn’t say a word!
Seeing that Mrs. Hua and her second uncle Chang Rong were both silent, He Shen continued to speak coldly.
"Old lady, and my second uncle, don't think that I'm retreating again and again, letting you occupy the Nestle and enjoy it in Jiale Hall. You are really the masters of He Mansion!"
…
At this moment, He Shen said with a dangerous chuckle on his face.
"That's because I don't want to worry too much. If it really makes me anxious, I still have the money to hire a few killers!"
"…………"
"If you dare to hire a killer to kill your grandma and uncle, aren't you afraid of being punished by clan rules?"
Upon hearing that Heshen was planning to hire a killer, Mrs. Hua finally became completely anxious.
Mrs. Hua pointed at Heshen's nose and yelled angrily.
"..."
"Hahahaha, old lady, you also know the clan rules, but the first rule of the clan rules is private property. It is sacred and inviolable!"
When He Shen faced Mrs. Hua, he was unexpectedly calm, and the cold light in his eyes became even stronger!
"Old lady, you can give it a try and see if you push someone to the edge and really tear them apart. Among us, who is more miserable!"
He Shen's tone was calm, but it made his second uncle Chang Rong feel frightened for a while. His eyelids were beating so hard that his heart was beating wildly.
On Mrs. Hua's side, she even wailed loudly regardless of her image, slapping the tables in front of her with bangs, tears streaming down her face, and howling loudly.
"..."
"Old lady, please stop pretending. After so many years, no one understands anyone..."
"It's not that I am cruel, grandson, but that you have gone too far."
"You can get wind and rain in the house, and you can make me breathless. That's all. Now you have to take care of things outside. Isn't it too much!"
Faced with the rambunctious and disorderly Mrs. Hua, He Shen did not panic or make any mistakes, and was calm from beginning to end.
No matter how much Mrs. Hua makes trouble, he is always the one who is in charge.
Mrs. Hua is in chaos, and her second uncle Chang Rong is panicking...
Looking at He Shen who was unmoved, Chang Rong rolled his eyes slightly, comforted the wailing Mrs. Hua, and passed the steps to He Shen.
"Shen'er, the old lady is like this now, let's just forget about this matter!"
"…………"
"Needless to say, since the old lady mentioned the clan rules and wants to deal with me according to the clan rules, let's go back to our hometown in Liaodong!"
"As a grandson, I cannot be unfilial. I will resign immediately and follow you back to my hometown in Liaodong."
"There are so many clan elders in my hometown. As a family, we can live by the clan rules!"
These words were the most powerful. Mrs. Hua's howling and crying suddenly stopped...
He Shen's words hit the real Achilles' heel of Mrs. Hua.
"..."
In the bitter cold land of Liaodong, the river has frozen in October.
In ancient times, Liaodong's natural geographical conditions were extremely poor, its location was northerly, and its climate was relatively cold.
Due to the cold environment and relatively low productivity conditions, the population is also small. This land of white mountains and black waters is nationally recognized as a bitter cold land.
Although Liaodong was the birthplace of the Qing Dynasty and the hometown of the Manchu and Qing bannermen, all the bannermen with a little ability and ability left this bitter, cold and barren land.
After enjoying the extremely prosperous place in the capital for so many years, Mrs. Hua, a pampered old woman, really didn't want to go back to her hometown in Liaodong to live the hard life before.
In an acre of land like He Mansion, she was considered to be the oldest in seniority. However, back home in Liaodong, there were many people with higher status and status than her.
At that time, He Shen's life may not be easy, but Mrs. Hua can no longer keep her promise.
It's hard, tiring, and unable to hold power. Is this a life that Mrs. Hua, who has a strong desire for power and is accustomed to living a luxurious life, wants to live?
So, even though this old lady was crying so loudly that it seemed like it would be nothing if she died like this...
In fact, she didn't want to die, let alone return to her hometown in Liaodong.
"…………"
