Look, Wei Zhucheng, Zhucheng, congratulations to him on successfully inheriting the title of Chengyang Marquis Mansion?

Wei Zheng chuckled, "In your master's heart, I am afraid that this prince is not as good as an outsider. It is ridiculous to teach your master a lesson for an outsider.

The servant was trembling with fear, and felt that this short distance was indeed very long. After finally sending the man to the garden, the housekeeper retreated humbly and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After strolling around the outer streets with his colleagues, Marquis Chengyang came back tiredly. Now there were undercurrents in the court, and if one was not careful, he would be caught in the whirlpool and become the first sacrifice.

"Master... why are you leaving court so late today? The emperor didn't say anything, did he..." Cheng Liu said softly, holding a handkerchief, and then quickly took off the cloak of Marquis Chengyang, put it in the outer room, and considerately pulled him in.

"The emperor didn't say anything. We just need to do what we should do and not cause trouble..." In the midst of wind and rain, I'm afraid that someone will get hold of something and bring it to His Majesty, exacerbating the conflict. His Majesty won't remember the past friendship.

Cheng Liu lowered his eyebrows, feeling sad, "Master... Look at me, I am so scared all day long, I don't even dare to go out on the street..."

Chengyang Hou quickly put his arm around the person's shoulders and held her in his arms, "Madam, please bear with it for now. The situation in Kyoto has changed suddenly. The only way to get through this situation is to stay calm..."

After a long pause, Cheng Liu suddenly cried out "Ouch!" and then smiled, "Look at my brain. Just now, Brother Zheng'er came back..."

"Hmph! What is that rebellious son doing back here?!" Marquis Chengyang said angrily, "He never does anything peaceful every day, and comes and goes at his own whim? Does he still have me as his father in his eyes? If he doesn't stay peacefully after coming back this time, I'll break his legs!"

"Master..." Cheng Liu quickly got a cup of hot tea and said, "Master, what are you talking about? It's okay for Zheng'er to like to play a little. On the contrary, you are too strict... If Zheng'er is not satisfied with you, those gossipy women inside and outside the house will also think that I, the stepmother, have treated Zheng'er unfairly."

Marquis Chengyang took the teacup and placed it on the table. "What are you talking about, Madam? Isn't it natural for a father to take care of his son? You always think about him, but he still bites you back. I am lucky that I don't punish him for his crime of disrespecting his parents!"

"How can it be so serious?"

The two chatted and laughed for a long time. Fang felt a little hungry and asked someone to prepare lunch. Wei Zheng, who usually didn't eat with others, came over at lunch time with a broken jade fan in his hand. It looked like it was worth a lot of money. "Oh, Marquis Chengyang... You still look energetic today."

"You rebellious son, how dare you come back?" Marquis Chengyang had a sullen face. There were only four sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, which were obviously used by their family.

Cheng Liu laughed awkwardly, "The servants in this mansion may not know that Zheng Ge'er has returned, so they forgot to bring a set of bowls and chopsticks. I will ask someone to add more..."

"Come back!" Chengyang Hou pulled him to sit down, and a pair of shrewd middle-aged man's eyes shot towards Wei Zheng, "If you want to eat, go get it yourself."

The posture of teasing cats and dogs.

Wei Zheng snorted lightly, "Then I will not disturb Marquis Chengyang from having his meal." After saying that, he turned around and left.

Marquis Chengyang watched the nonchalant figure leave, and he was so angry that his heart ached. He slammed the table and raged, "Look at this! This rebellious son!"

Seeing that the father and son were quarreling again, Cheng Liu stroked their backs and said softly, "Master...Zheng Ge'er is ignorant, why do you have to follow his example?"

"He is ignorant?! Look at how old he is now, and he is still ignorant?! People of his age have already married and had children? He is the only one who goes out with those bad friends all day long and doesn't come home for months!" Marquis Chengyang said angrily. Wei Zheng is really a rebellious son!

Cheng Liu smiled and said, "Master, what you said reminds me that Zheng'er has reached the age. It's all my fault as a stepmother. I've been secretly observing Zheng'er these days to see how his marriage is going."

This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run. Marquis Chengyang pondered for a while, "Okay... But Madam, this matter needs to be discussed in private. After all, this is about Kyoto's stance."

Cheng Liu was not aware of most of these turbulent things, so he said, "Then I'll take a good look at it and present the list to you, okay?"

"Madam, you know my heart."

After Wei Zheng returned to the capital, all his old friends were gone. Ning Rongzhang and several generals of the Li family had all gone to the border, but the Ji family suffered because they stayed in the capital.

It's not that he wants to go back to Kyoto, but he can't stay in Toshiba any longer. When he thinks of the relationship between the Toshiba King and himself, and how he recklessly had sex with his mother when he was young and hot-tempered...

I have a lot of worries.

Fortunately, he recovered from his injuries and came back.

"Let's go to the Dali Temple..."

A broken jade fan flew in the air. Wei Zheng first sent people to investigate. After confirming that there were Ning Rongzhang's men in the Dali Temple, he went to the back door.

The jailer who had been waiting there for a long time led the people in, "My Lord... why did you decide to come here?"

"Oh..." Wei Zheng waved his fan randomly, "It's because one of my friends has been wrongfully imprisoned again, so I came to take a look..."

A ray of sunlight from the horizon shone in obliquely. Ji Mengshu sat on the relatively clean bed, his eyes hidden in the dark and unclear places. He raised his head only when he heard some noise.

No matter how she tried to test the jailers these days, they remained silent, let alone revealing who was behind her.

When she saw Wei Zheng coming, Ji Mengshu finally understood something. Perhaps it was because the Chengyang Marquis' Mansion was too powerful and had helpers in the Dali Temple, which was why she was able to avoid the suffering of imprisonment.

"Wei Zheng...how are my parents?"

Wei Zheng turned his head and looked at the prison head, who said, "Miss Ji, don't worry, Lord Ji and the others are all fine..."

"You are in a situation like this now, and you are in a difficult situation." Wei Zheng asked someone to open the door. "I came back a few days ago and heard that General Ji had passed away?"

The white banner in front of the Ji Mansion had been torn down long ago, and the Ji Mansion, which was once bustling with people, was now sealed. When Wei Zheng asked around, he learned that something had happened to the Ji family.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be like this. Before Ning Rongzhang went to war, didn't he think that Ning Huaixuan would join forces with others to regain control of the court? Why did he go to great lengths to send someone here?

The ten fingers of both hands were deeply embedded in the haystack. Ji Mengshu closed his eyes slightly and said, "My brother disappeared in Yinhui Mountain... We have been searching for him for a long time but couldn't find him..." A corpse or a living person.
