Chapter 651: false alarm

   Chapter 651 False alarm

   Shao Mingyuan lowered his eyes and looked at his younger brother who was taller than his shoulders, and smiled softly: "Yes, let's go."

   "Second brother—" Shao Xiyuan called out.

   "Is there something wrong with the third brother?"

   "Actually..." Shao Xiyuan hesitated for a moment, then hesitantly said, "I also don't think eldest brother should say it, but can you not blame eldest brother? Mother is sick, eldest brother feels uncomfortable—"

  Shao Mingyuan raised his hand and patted Shao Xiyuan's shoulder: "Third brother, at this time, it doesn't matter whether it's blaming or not. You don't need to mix it up, don't let your efforts, the second brother is gone."

   "Second Brother—" Watching Shao Mingyuan go further and further, Shao Xiyuan stood there for a long time without moving.

   He didn't like the second brother very much before, especially after the second brother killed the second sister-in-law, he felt that he hated him very much, but now why does the second brother feel a little pitiful?

   When he was a child, he always told himself that it was the second brother who was disobedient that made his mother angry, and the mother was not partial. But now he knew that his mother was really bad to his second brother.

   But, can you blame the mother? If the mother is not at fault, then who is at fault?

   Shao Xiyuan only felt at a loss, and finally went back to his room in despair.

   Shao Mingyuan returned to Champion Hou's Mansion, and personally reported to the guard: "General, the Li Mansion has sent someone to deliver a letter, please come over."

  Shao Mingyuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard it, and asked, "Did the messenger say who asked me to come over?"

   The personal guard gave his general a sympathetic look: "It's the eldest master of the Li House."

   Seeing the general's sluggish expression, the guard added: "Uh, it's your father-in-law."

   "Okay, I see." Shao Mingyuan waved his guards out and rubbed his face while sitting in the study.

   Father-in-law asked him to go to the Loei House at this time?

  The literati emphasizes etiquette. Could it be that the father-in-law heard about his status as a mistress and planned to regret the marriage?

   Thinking of this possibility, Shao Mingyuan felt his whole heart twitched, like a cone piercing his heart.

   He has no expectations for his family, and it is his greatest desire to be able to join hands with Zhaozhao in this life. If the marriage is full of twists and turns, he will probably do things he can't even think of.

  The window was not open, and the light in the study was dim. Shao Mingyuan sat quietly for a long time, then suddenly stood up.

   Escape is not the way, the big deal is that he is thicker-skinned. If the father-in-law wants to regret the marriage, he will cry to him.

  Xingzi Hutong, Loei House.

   "Master, Lord Hou is here."

"please come in."

   Not long after, Shao Mingyuan lifted the curtain and entered, his eyes swept across Qiao Zhao, who was sitting next to Li Guangwen, and said politely, "My son-in-law has seen my father-in-law."

  Li Guangwen stretched out his hand: "Sit down."

  Shao Mingyuan sat down silently.

  Li Guangwen took a sip of water from the tea cup and squinted at Shao Mingyuan: "I heard all the news outside."

   Shao Mingyuan lowered his eyes and listened respectfully.

   "Is this true or false?" Li Guangwen asked seriously.

  Shao Mingyuan was silent for a moment, then nodded lightly: "Report to my father-in-law, this is true, and the youngest son-in-law is indeed the son-in-law."

   Saying this, Shao Mingyuan's ears turned red.

   He earned his current status by virtue of his military exploits, and never felt that his background was everything, but only in front of Zhaozhao's parents, he felt short of breath.

  Li Guangwen looked at Shao Mingyuan seriously: "Then did you only know it now, or did you know it long before the engagement?"

   Shao Mingyuan's face turned pale.

   "Father—" Qiao Zhao couldn't help shouting.

  Li Guangwen patted Qiao Zhao and motioned her not to speak.

  Qiao Zhao had to give Shao Mingyuan a helpless look.

   Shao Mingyuan replied honestly: "My father told me long before the engagement."

   "Then your Jing'an Hou residence is cheating on marriage." Li Guangwen said coldly.

   Shao Mingyuan's face changed slightly, and he said ashamed: "It's the young son-in-law who did a bad job, he should have told his father-in-law early in the morning."

   "I ask you, do you have anything to hide from Zhaozhao?"

   "No." Shao Mingyuan said immediately.

   "Then you won't hide it from her in the future, will you?"

   "No, husband and wife are of the same mind. No matter what happens in the future, my son-in-law will discuss with Zhaozhao."

  Li Guangwen nodded with satisfaction: "Just remember what you said today."

   Shao Mingyuan was slightly relieved, but he couldn't believe that he passed the level so easily, and stared at Li Guangwen blankly.

  Li Guangwen couldn't help but laugh: "Why, do you want me to take care of the meal?"

   "Well, that little son-in-law is disrespectful."

  The father-in-law is willing to take care of the meal, and it seems that the daughter-in-law who gets it will not be able to fly.

   "Okay, let's go to the dining room, the food is ready, let's have a good drink today."

   "Yes." Shao Mingyuan glanced at Qiao Zhao quickly.

   "Come on Zhaozhao too." Li Guangwen said lightly.

   As expected, wine and dishes were already set up in the dining room, Li Guangwen raised the wine glass and clinked with Shao Mingyuan, and drank them all.

   After three rounds of drinking, Li Guangwen opened the conversation box: "I called you here today to see if you can tell the truth. If you are slick, I won't worry about handing your daughter over to you."

   "Little son-in-law is clumsy and never slicks his tongue."

  Li Guangwen had already drank a little too much, squinted and nodded: "That's good. Ming Yuan—"

   "My son-in-law is here."

   "Don't pay attention to those rumors. Is a person's character determined by one's background? A person from the main room is a noble person, and a person from the outer room is despicable? It's all bullshit!" Li Guangwen raised his glass again.

   "Father, you've been drinking too much." Qiao Zhao also didn't understand how the Hongmen Banquet she thought had turned into drinking and talking.

"I didn't drink too much." Li Guangwen's eyes were bright, "Even if I drink too much, I understand it in my heart. There are thousands of direct sons in this world, but there is only one champion who can stop the wolves and tigers in Northern Qi Tartars. Er. Mingyuan, just be yourself, don't care about secular prejudice. Also, and Zhaozhao—"

  Li Guangwen looked around blankly: "Hey, where's Zhaozhao?"

   "Father, I'm here." Qiao Zhao said helplessly.

  Li Guangwen took Qiao Zhao's hand and put it in Shao Mingyuan's.

   Shao Mingyuan was stunned.

   "Zhaozhao, you mustn't think about Ming Yuan because of his background. He treats you well, and his father sees it in his eyes—" Li Guangwen drank too much, and before he finished speaking, he lay down on the table.

  Qiao Zhao looked at Shao Mingyuan.

  Shao Mingyuan suddenly turned his eyes away and held her hand tightly.

   "Tingquan?"

  Shao Mingyuan returned to his usual expression: "Zhaozhao, let's help my father-in-law go back to the room and rest."

   Set up Li Guangwen, and Qiao Zhao sends Shao Mingyuan out.

"The people behind the scenes first pushed you to the forefront, and then exposed your background, just to let the world pay attention to this point, but these are at best flaws for you, I guess they still have killers to use. come out."

   "I have already sent someone to investigate, just leave these things to me."

   In the study room of the Shoufu Lanshan mansion, Lanshan tapped on the desk, his son Lan Songquan pushed the door and entered: "Father, are you looking for me?"
