In the harem.
Imperial Uncle Cao was looking at his sister in fear.
After the Empress heard her brother's tearful story, she sighed.
"Sigh, I didn't expect Shen Yan to have such a powerful background. Both the British Duke and the East Chamber stood up for him.”
At the same time, she finally understood why Wei Xiaobao had come to the harem today.
He also understood why Wei Ming and the other eunuchs had been captured and sent to the East Hall.
All of this was because the siblings had provoked Shen Yan.
"Since the British Duke and the East Chamber are standing up for him, then forget it.”The Empress sighed like a defeated hen.
"But……how can I say it? Those silver taels are all in my residence.”"They won't come even if I ask them to." Guo Jiu smiled bitterly.”
The Empress thought for a moment and then said.
"How about this, add some more and send all the silver to Shen Yan. Enemies should be resolved rather than made."
"How much more?"
Cao Guojiu asked.
If he could successfully resolve this matter, he would be willing to pay even if he had to pay some silver.
If he offended the Duke of England or the East Chamber, then even if he was the younger brother of the Empress, his fate would be very miserable.
"Add a round number." the Empress said again.
"Round number?" State Uncle Cao felt his heart ache. What was going on?
Not only did he not get the money back, but he also had to pay three million yuan.
It's really too difficult for me.
I'm afraid I'm the most unlucky and stupidest Imperial Brother-in-law in history.
However, this might be the best solution.
Thinking of this, Cao Guojiu immediately returned to the manor to prepare.
On the streets of the capital.
A horse carriage slowly moved forward.
Wei Xiaobao was telling a seven-year-old fatty how he met Shen Yan and how he used his luck to win money.
Hearing this, the child laughed non-stop." Eunuch Wei, Father wants me to take such a stupid person as my master. Wouldn't I be stupid too?"”
"Haha, he's not stupid. It was only because he did not care about status and position when making friends that he did not think too much about it.”
"In that case, you can hide my identity later. I want to see if this person is really interesting.”
"Alright, I'll do it. Once you get in touch with him, you'll realize that he's a very interesting person.”
"Besides, he also has a lot of interesting games with big imagination."”
"Wow, I love playing games.”The child couldn't help but be filled with anticipation.
The Deputy Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Shen residence.
At this time, Shen Yan was in the meeting hall, preparing a housewarming banquet to entertain the Jinyiwei colleagues.
However, what was puzzling was that not many people came.
Other than Gao Yong and his wife, Pei Yi and his wife, Old Cripple, Hou Ren, Shi Kui, and Fatty Jin, no one else came.
"These sons of b * tches either use diarrhea and busy work as an excuse, or they use the excuse that they can't take leave.”
"Hehe, I finally know what it means to be cold and warm.”
"Yesterday, they were all so passionate. Today, when they heard that the Empress had issued an imperial decree, they didn't dare to come.”
"However, it's also a good thing to draw a clear line with us. We don't have to see their ugly faces every day in the future.”
Although Gao Yong and the others said so, they still had a bellyful of pent-up anger that they did not vent out.
At this moment, the British Duke Zhang Ying and Wang Yuyan walked over from the backyard of the palace with some gift boxes.
"Hehe, I thought there would be a lot of people. I didn't expect it to be just us."
"It's just nice. We're all on the same side, so there's no need to be so restrained. There's nothing bad about it."
The British Duke, Zhang Ying, seemed to have expected this. He then ordered the servants to prepare the dishes and start the banquet.
Shen Yan looked at the dejected crowd and smiled.
"Isn't it better if there are no outsiders?”
"I'm still unhappy," Gao Yong said angrily. I don't know which bastard spread the rumor, but it spread throughout the entire capital. He said that it wouldn't be long before you stepped down.”
"Yes, I am. When I came from the Wei Agency, those people who called me brother yesterday all ignored me today.”Hou Ren smiled bitterly.
Although Fatty Jin did not say anything, his expression was very complicated.
Only the old cripple, Shi Kui, and Pei Yi remained calm as if nothing had happened.
"Alright, don't be bothered by these people. It's not worth it." British Duke Zhang Ying looked at everyone and smiled sweetly."Everyone, let's have a drink. Don't ruin this beautiful moment today.”
At this moment, a familiar voice came from outside the door.
"Brother, this isn't right. You didn't even bring me along for the housewarming party.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a thin young man brought a seven-year-old fatty into the hall.
When he heard this familiar voice, Shen Yan was pleasantly surprised.
"Little Wei."
He jumped up and greeted them with a bright smile.
"Haha, it's not that I don't want to invite you, but you're too busy to bother me.”
Shen Yan's words were full of ridicule.
Wei Xiaobao heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Shen Yan's bright smile.
When he came, he was worried that Shen Yan would be cautious when he saw him. He was afraid that he would be in awe of him like everyone else.
If that was the case, he, Wei Xiaobao, would have no more friends.
Unexpectedly, Shen Yan was still the same as before. It was as if he did not know that he was the supervisor of the East Chamber.
How could Wei Xiaobao not be happy about this?
They didn't care about each other's identity and status, only about friendship.
"Haha, you were almost a step late. I'll punish you with three cups of wine.”
Shen Yan pulled Wei Xiaobao to his side.
Gao Yong, who was at the side, directly filled his cup and said extremely happily,"This brother is really loyal. Come, I, Gao Yong, will drink with you.”
Wei Xiaobao smiled and downed the wine.
Hou Yong and Fatty Jin saw that Lord Shen's brother had a high alcohol tolerance, and they also became excited.
"Haha, not bad. Come, let's all touch one too."
Instantly, the atmosphere in the hall became lively.
Only the British Duke, Zhang Ying, was watching all of this with a faint smile.
She picked up her wine glass and walked over to Wei Xiaobao."You're really bold to bring the Crown Prince here.”
"Shh, lower your voice, my young miss. This is the permission of His Majesty." Wei Xiaobao shot her a knowing look.
"Alright then." British Duke Zhang Ying smiled and said nothing more.
As for the seven-year-old fatty, he was a foodie. As soon as he arrived, his eyes lit up. He did not stand on ceremony and immediately started eating.
In a short while, he ate a lot of food.
As he ate, he said,"Wow, it's so delicious. I've never eaten anything so delicious before."”
Wang Yuyan, who was standing at the side, revealed an expression that said that this little fatty had good taste.
She picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and placed it in the little fatty's bowl."Come. Try this."
Thank you, Fairy Sister." The little fatty was still very polite.
"Yes, this child is really cute.”Wang Yuyan pinched his chubby little face.
