The elder sister killed the whole family, and came back to be beaten to death

Chapter 207 Falling out of favor

In Xiao Huan's opinion, it was hard to say whether Envoy Lu could survive to the border given his situation at that time, not to mention that mining at the border would be exposed to the wind and sun.

Shen Sui looked at Shen Tang, "Do you think Third Young Master Lu is your second brother?"

Shen Tang shook her head. "My daughter doesn't know either. Seeing that old servant was so insistent, I couldn't help but want to find out. I kept thinking, what if it really is my second brother? Even if it isn't, if Envoy Lu is truly innocent, then God will see my good deeds and reunite our family soon."

Doing good deeds without asking for reward.

Few people could do this, and Xiao Huan felt inferior. "I'll go back and ask my grandfather tomorrow."

The old lady over there saw that the father and his two sons had not arrived yet, so she sent a maid to invite them, and they walked into Songhe Hall.

Today is the family reunion dinner, and everyone is here except the second wife who was kicked out of the house.

The table was filled with dishes, including everything that flew in the sky, ran on the ground, and swam in the water.

The old lady was happy but also felt bad. If the second wife had not been so foolish and made those mistakes, the whole family would be together and it would be a true reunion.

However, this was not a pleasant thing, and the old lady didn't dare to let it show up. That was just to bring bad luck to the eldest house. When it came to Xiao Huan's affairs, Shen Sui made no decision without consulting her, and the old lady was still confused in her heart.

Zuixian Tower.

Xie Guimo stopped his horse and dismounted.

The waiter led him to the private room on the second floor, pushed open the door, and Xie Guimo walked in, only to see the eldest prince sitting there drinking.

Seeing Xie Guimo come in, the eldest prince raised his glass and said, "I've been waiting for so long."

Xie Guimo said, "It seems that the eldest prince is in a good mood."

The eldest prince smiled broadly and poured wine for Xie Guimo. "I'm not just in a good mood, I've never felt so happy as I do today."

He and the King of Qi had been fighting almost since they were young, but he had never won so thoroughly. When he met the King of Qi in the palace today, his face was so ugly that it made the eldest prince happy for half a month.

Because Concubine Ye and Princess Jingyang are cousins, and Concubine Ye's father died to save Princess Jingyang's father, with such a favor, the eldest prince thought that Xie Guimo would stand firmly on the side of King Qi. Unexpectedly, Xie Guimo would take the initiative to ask him for help, and the one he was plotting against was the Prince of Changping. He had to do him a favor even if he had to go through fire and water.

But I don't know what's wrong with the Prince of Changping. The same medicine was used by the King of Qi and his bestial nature became aroused, but the Prince of Changping had no reaction at all. Could it be that he used the usual medicine too much and it no longer worked on him?

Because the situation was urgent and there was no time to consult Xie Guimo, the eldest prince could only take the initiative to push Miss Shen to the second prince. Afterwards, the eldest prince was afraid that Xie Guimo would blame him, but Xie Guimo said nothing, only saying, "I owe you a favor."

The eldest prince felt that he had gotten a great deal from the dignified Prince of Jingyang, a favor that came right to his doorstep.

Knowing that Shen Xian was not Shen Sui's biological daughter, but was secretly sent to the eldest house by the second house, the eldest prince was determined to help Shen Xian secure the position of the second prince's consort, so as to prevent Concubine Ye from using the position of the second prince's consort to win over others to help the second prince win the throne.

He had already won one game, but he didn't expect to win again. This move of his was brilliant. He felt bad if he didn't invite Prince Jingyang to dinner.

Although Xie Guimo and the second prince are cousins, because Xie Guimo almost died in the palace when he was a child, the prince never allowed the princess to bring Xie Guimo into the palace alone since then. Over the years, no matter how the second prince and the eldest prince fought, Xie Guimo never participated. In addition, Princess Jingyang and Queen Xu had some friendship when they were in the boudoir. When Xie Guimo asked the eldest prince for help, the eldest prince didn't even think about whether there would be any traps, so he helped directly.

Xie Guimo sat down and asked, "The eldest prince wants to see me for something?"

The eldest prince laughed and said, "If there's nothing wrong, then I can't go drink with you?"

This sounds a bit familiar.

He often said this when he went to see Shen Tang.

Xie Guimo said, "I don't want to cause trouble for myself just for a drink."

The eldest prince also knew Xie Guimo's dilemma. He smiled and said, "I'll come to you next time I have something to ask."

After a pause, the eldest prince frowned and said, "But why does this sound so wrong? It feels like an affair."

Xie Guimo, "..."

Xie Guimo's face was filled with black lines. "Are you here to have a drink with me, or are you here just to disgust me?"

The eldest prince also felt that what he had just said was a bit disgusting. He himself was disgusted, let alone Xie Guimo. He touched his nose and said, "Drink, drink."

Of course, the eldest prince did not just want to have a drink with Xie Guimo, but he did not want Xie Guimo to help him with anything. He just had some tricky matters and could not make up his mind, so he asked Xie Guimo to help him consider it.

The two of them were drinking and chatting. Chen Qi was tired of standing in one position, so he went to the window to get some fresh air. As he was getting some fresh air, he saw Chen Shan riding by on horseback.

Chen Qi blew a whistle. Hearing the whistle, Chen Shan tightened the reins and turned around to see Chen Qi standing by the window.

Wherever Chen Qi is, Xie Guimo must be there.

Chen Shan turned around and walked to the window. He jumped up and jumped in.

Chen Shan thought Xie Guimo was having dinner with Xuanyi Hou's son Chu Yi and others, but he didn't expect that none of them were there, and the one who was there was the eldest prince.

Xie Guimo said, "If you have anything to say, just report it. The eldest prince is not an outsider."

Chen Shan said, "Master, you have fallen out of favor."

Xie Guimo, "..."

The eldest prince, "..."

Cough!

The words are not surprising and die endlessly.

The eldest prince choked on the wine and tears came out.

Xie Guimo was lucky not to have drunk any alcohol, otherwise he would have choked to death. He put down the wine glass in his hand heavily and said through gritted teeth, "How did I fall out of favor?!"

Chen Shan said, "Second Miss Shen used to ask me for help when she had problems. Now that Young Master Shen has returned to his roots, she no longer asks me for help and instead asks her eldest brother for help."

The eldest prince, "..."

The eldest prince's mouth twitched violently.

I was wondering how she fell out of favor. When Second Miss Shen had something to do, she didn't ask Prince Jingyang for help, and the secret guards all thought that their master had fallen out of favor. Did they become accustomed to helping others?

He really didn't know that the Prince of Jingyang was such a person.

Xie Guimo wanted to ask Chen Qi to drag Chen Shan away and beat him up, "She asked her eldest brother for help, and I was happy to have some free time."

Chen Shan didn't say anything.

Xie Guimo asked again, "What did she ask Xiao Huan to help her with?"

The eldest prince raised his eyebrows.

This matter couldn't be explained in a few words, so Chen Shan started from the beginning and said, "From what Miss Shen said, regardless of whether Young Master Lu San is her second brother or not, she wants to investigate the case of Lu Xuanfushi of Qianzhou."

Xie Guimo didn't go to Marquis Pingyuan's Mansion these days. Shen Tang and Shen Sui were having a reunion dinner, and there was no point for him to stay there to watch over them. A meal was enough for him to run back and forth. In addition, there was such an incident, so Chen Shan used it as an excuse to go back to Prince Jingyang's Mansion. He didn't expect that the master and the eldest prince were having dinner together. The master clearly wanted to use the eldest prince to overthrow the second prince. He said that the eldest prince was not an outsider, so he had to tell the truth, otherwise it would seem that the prince did not trust the eldest prince.

He dare not ruin my business.

Xie Guimo knew that Shen Tang was soft-hearted, and if she knew about this, she might intervene, not to mention that there was a slight possibility that it was her second brother.

Xie Guimo looked at the eldest prince, "If I remember correctly, it was the Left Prime Minister's men who impeached Envoy Lu for colluding with the bandits?"

The left prime minister is the King of Qi's man.

The eldest prince asked, "You want me to investigate this case?"

Xie Guimo said, "If you don't trust Envoy Lu, you should trust Xiao Huan's ability to judge people."
