The study on the other side.

Xiao Yuanshi asked someone to check what happened today.

He thought carefully about what happened from entering the restaurant to what happened next.

He also discovered two things that were wrong.

One was the famous waiter. When he was pouring the wine for him, his hands shook and it almost spilled.

Second, why did it happen that he was drinking with his colleagues, and that group of dandies also went there.

The key to that group of people was Xi Rui.

So he sent someone to arrest the famous waiter for interrogation.

Let people keep an eye on Xi Rui and the emperor's uncle again.

It has to be said that Xiao Yuanshi's ability to rise from a small soldier to a general does have his own merits.

Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao finished talking about the restaurant and got on the carriage.

The two people's followers were not simple, so they naturally discovered that someone was following them and reported them.

Liang Youxiao waved his hand, "Let them follow."

Xi Rui raised his eyebrows and said, "Xiao Yuanshi is quite smart, but now he is suspicious of us?"

Liang Youxiao smiled meaningfully, "I should be doubting you, not us."

Xi Rui: "..." This guy is nothing.

He shrugged nonchalantly, "Just discover it when you find it. I didn't want to hide it."

Xiao Yuanshi must have guessed that someone was plotting against him.

Many things in the restaurant are coincidental. It's strange that Xiao Yuanshi doesn't doubt him.

Even if it is found out, he is not afraid.

He wanted to let Xiao Yuanshi know that if the general's wife dared to scheme against him, she would have to accept his revenge.

Liang Youxiao chuckled: "That's right, it's just Xiao Yuanshi, there's nothing to be afraid of."

Xi Rui put his hand on Liang Youxiao's shoulder, "Let's go and play mahjong."

"Okay." Liang Youxiao nodded with a smile.

So the two of them ran to a teahouse and invited two friends to play mahjong.

News about General Xiao spread out in the capital as if it had wings.

When many people heard the news, their first reaction was that they couldn't believe it, and their second reaction was that General Xiao turned out to be such a person.

It’s really hard to see!

The next day, Xiao Yuanshi went to court and received strange looks from many courtiers.

Some people even expressed contempt directly.

His heart skipped a beat. Did the old dandy tell the story?

There wasn't much going on today, and the court dispersed soon after.

Xiao Yuanshi didn't know if it was his imagination, but he found that the emperor seemed to have looked at him specially before leaving.

After leaving the main hall, Xiao Yuanshi found that many people with whom he usually had good relationships were staying away from him.

I was already convinced in my heart that what happened yesterday had been leaked.

At this moment, he could not wait to pick up his sword and kill the emperor's uncle immediately.

At this time, another general with whom he had a close relationship came over.

The man asked in a low voice: "Did you offend someone?"

Regarding the news from outside, he believed this happened, but he did not believe that Xiao Yuanshi had such a hobby.

They had been on the battlefield together, and he knew that Xiao Yuanshi was not that kind of person.

And even if it were true, with Xiao Yuanshi's temperament, it would be impossible for him to do such a thing in a restaurant.

So there is only one possibility, Xiao Yuanshi was plotted against.

Xiao Yuanshi asked in a low voice: "Did you hear something?"

The man told him what he had heard.

Xiao Yuanshi's face instantly became gloomy, "Are you saying that it was Xi Rui and a bunch of other dudes who spread the news?"

The man nodded, "Yes, they even said they saw it with their own eyes."

"And a colleague who went drinking with you yesterday also said it was true. He also saw it."

Xiao Yuanshi finally understood why those people looked at him strangely today.

Also, why did those people look wrong a few days ago?

It turned out that it was that bastard Xi Rui who led the dandies to spread rumors about him, saying that he and Ge Chunyi...

The target he wanted to kill at this time was successfully transferred to Xi Rui.

Only the Demon King can do this.

"Indeed, I was plotted. I had no idea what happened yesterday, and it became like this after that."

"My nephew had a conflict with Xi Rui before and accidentally punched him."

"Later, my brother-in-law also had a conflict with Xi Rui, and he even had someone cut off my brother-in-law's hand."

Xiao Yuanshi smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that he hasn't had enough revenge."

He told this person roughly what happened yesterday.

The general sighed, "Hey, this matter will have a big impact on your reputation. You should pay more attention these days."

It was hard for him to say anything to Xi Rui.

After all, the little devil was very popular with the Queen Mother and the Emperor, so it would be unlucky for Xiao Yuanshi to offend him.

Then a few people who knew Xiao Yuanshi's temperament came forward to ask.

Xiao Yuanshi also explained everything one by one, and everyone felt that he was really unlucky.

However, they have recently decided to keep some distance from him. After all, people are scary and they don't want to become one of the targets of rumors.

Xi Rui's bunch of dandies have backgrounds and are fearless. They can't afford to offend them.

On the way, Xiao Yuanshi asked for leave from the Minister of War and did not go to the Yamen.

He really couldn't keep his face off and made people laugh at him.

When something like this happened to one of his subordinates, the Minister of War was not happy.

He didn't want Xiao Yuanshi to draw attention to the Ministry of War, so he gave him three days' leave.

Xiao Yuanshi got on the carriage returning to the General's Mansion and crushed several teacups on the carriage.

"Xi Rui!" He gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

That bastard went too far. Not only did he completely destroy his brother-in-law over a trivial matter, he also plotted against him.

He closed his eyes. Now he couldn't touch Xi Rui and the old dude, but one day, he would have to cut these two people into pieces.

The most important thing to do now is to reduce the rumors and reduce the impact of this incident on him in court.

This time he suffered great losses. He managed to gain a foothold in the court with great difficulty, and he also gained a good reputation as a Confucian general.

Now they are all ruined by those dandies, he hates it!

On the other side, the old lady took her daughter-in-law out in the morning.

I met an old lady I had just met, and she told her about her second son.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao was furious to death.

She didn't believe it, and then she ran to ask several other acquaintances, but she didn't know that everyone said so.

Unable to hold back, he took his wife and hurried back to the general's mansion.

A young man curled his lips when he saw Mrs. Xiao's appearance.

Not long after, he asked someone to pay the old woman who revealed the news to Mrs. Xiao.

After the good show in the General's Mansion was over, he could write a letter and send it back to his master.

General's Mansion.

Ge Chunru is drinking nourishing soup.

Since she became pregnant, with Xiao Yuanshi's intervention, she no longer has to serve the old lady.

Suddenly the maid came to report, "Madam, the old lady rushed into the yard with an ugly face."

Ge Chunru frowned, "Why is she going crazy again?"

She stood up and said, "Let's go take a look."

She is pregnant now, and the old lady doesn't dare to touch her like before. She has the confidence.

As soon as I walked out of the door, I suddenly received a slap on my face.

Ge Chunru covered her face and looked at the old lady in disbelief.
