The Poisonous Wife: Cute Baby Comes to Rebirth with Me
Chapter 496 The Truth of Officialdom
Marquis Wu'an paused for a moment, and continued meaningfully, "When a new noble gains favor, there are always rumors and gossips. The emperor may not care at first, but he will eventually get annoyed after hearing them too much. At that time, these idle gossips will become your crimes."
Yi Han knew that what his uncle said was the truth of officialdom. The hearts of people in the court were unpredictable, and he had also experienced the cunning in the power field. So he put down the teacup in his hand and said respectfully: "Nephew, I will remember your teachings."
Yun Xi also nodded and said, "Yun Xi will also remember the words of the Marquis."
Upon hearing this, Marquis Wu'an looked at Yun Xi with a smile: "Yun Xi, you have been married before. Although the emperor has granted you another marriage, the title of Marquis is indeed inappropriate." Yun Xi's face flushed, but she said without any hesitation: "Yes, uncle."
Xiao Yunfeng deeply agreed with the Marquis's teachings.
Although he had been in the palace for a short time, he had already experienced many twists and turns. He knew very well that in this ever-changing court, it was difficult to distinguish who was a true friend and who was a potential enemy.
Therefore, he must be careful in what he says and does so as not to step into trouble.
As everyone talked, the topic naturally turned to Yi Han's experience in Lingnan.
When Marquis Wu'an asked about the traitor, Yi Han responded calmly, "My nephew has already made a decision about the traitor. Since he is dead, I will not pursue the matter any further."
Upon hearing this, Liu Banruo glanced at Yi Han and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth again.
Seeing this, Yun Xi hurriedly changed the subject: "Tomorrow I need to go back to General Lin's Mansion and then go to the Censor's Mansion. Yi Han, if you are free, can you accompany me?"
"Of course." Yi Han agreed readily.
Xiao Yunfeng also said: "I will be able to leave the palace at noon tomorrow. Sister Xi, you go back to the General's Mansion first, and then go to the Censor's Mansion at noon. I will wait for you in the mansion then."
"Okay." Yun Xi nodded in agreement.
Liu Prajna was aware of her presence and everyone seemed quite reserved in their conversation.
However, she had no intention of leaving. She just sat there quietly, sipping a few drinks from time to time, and occasionally looking at Yun Xi and Yi Han, her eyes deep and unfathomable.
Because Liu Banruo was present, the meal did not last long.
When the banquet was over, Liu Banruo suddenly stopped Yi Han and said, "General, I am not familiar with the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion. Could you please accompany me for a walk?"
Yi Han responded calmly: "If Liupin wants to go for a walk, I will ask someone to accompany you."
After saying that, he raised his hand to call someone over. Seeing this, Liu Prajna was quite displeased with Yi Han's cold attitude.
Liu Prajna raised her eyebrows and said jokingly, "General, are you afraid of me?"
Yi Han glanced at her, his eyes deep, "Princess Liu, why do you say that?"
Liu Prajna snorted lightly, with a bit of disdain on her face, "Originally I wanted to say something to the general, but since you are so unwilling to do me a favor, forget it."
"It seems that there is nothing to talk about between us." Yi Han's tone was cold and distant.
"Really?" Liu Prajna sneered, "What about Xu Feng?"
As soon as Xu Feng's name came out, Yi Han's expression suddenly changed.
He turned around and glanced at Yun Xi, who nodded knowingly, "I have something to say to my brother in private, so you should accompany her to familiarize herself with the environment in the mansion first."
Yi Han nodded and said to Liu Banruo, "Princess Liu, please."
Liu Banruo walked in front with her head held high and her chest puffed out. Her posture was tall and graceful, like a proud princess.
Although the Wu'an Marquis Mansion is large, its layout is clear. The family lives in the backyard, and there are three magnificent buildings in the front yard, namely the main hall, the reception room and the banquet hall. The pavilions and towers are interspersed with winding corridors, which have a unique charm.
Liu Prajna strolled to the lakeside and saw a pavilion standing in the lake, connected to the shore by a straight bridge.
She walked onto the small bridge, sat down in the pavilion, and leisurely enjoyed the scenery of the lake.
However, the scenery in the lake is not satisfactory.
The lotus leaves are withering and the lotus flowers are dying, creating a bleak scene.
Liu Prajna frowned slightly, seeming somewhat dissatisfied with the decadence of autumn and winter.
"General." She looked at Yi Han standing on the edge of the pavilion and smiled faintly, "I'm not a ghost, why are you so afraid of me?"
Yi Han glanced at her coldly and said, "Some people are more annoying than ghosts."
Upon hearing this, Liu Prajna raised a mocking arc at the corner of her mouth, "Indeed, some people are more disgusting than ghosts. General, do you think you are a ghost or a human?"
Yi Han did not answer her question, but asked directly: "Do you have anything else to tell me about Xu Feng?"
Liu Banruo pointed to the seat next to her and said, "Sit down and talk." There was a hint of command in her tone.
Yi Han was unmoved. "If you have anything to say, just say it. I don't have time to waste here with you. When the Chiyu Camp was about to win, you killed the King of Lingnan and took the credit for nothing. Do you really think you have done an unparalleled deed?"
Liu Prajna sneered, "Everyone in the world knows that I am the hero who killed the King of Lingnan. Who really cares about the truth? People only care about the results, and I am the one who can add icing on the cake for you."
