Chapter 352 Claiming Maggie Again

A few days later, the army returned, and Shen Donglai, the governor of the state, brought all the officials from all over the city to welcome the army for 30 miles. The city was decorated with lanterns and colors to celebrate the death of Di Da Shan Yu Mu Huor.

At this time, Shen Zangfeng had not yet been able to come back from Di Cui Guan, but because he sent a letter back every two days, which indicated that he was still persuading that talented person named Shangguan XI, everything was fine. Wei Changying was not too worried about him.

After the return of the army, Shen Yujia and Shen Dong will take care of the reward and reward, so it is not necessary for Wei Changying to intervene. She just made a list of the beauties that the elders had forced on Shen Zanghui at the New Year's Eve banquet and sent them to Shen Yujia, explaining that they were all beautiful young women who could be used for the reward.

Shen Yujia did not hesitate to give them to the men who had done well in the expedition. Because there were a few beautiful girls in that batch of beauty, this matter attracted a group of people to scramble for them, so much so that Shen Yujia personally ran to Mingpei Hall in a couple of days to see Wei Changying, and shamelessly asked for a batch of outstanding beauties as a reward.

When Wei Changying heard about it, he laughed and said, "That batch is still a gift from the elders to Fourth Brother, who already has people around him and thinks it's too much trouble to have more people, so he asked me to help him get rid of them. I can't use them here, so I gave them to you. Is it difficult for me to cultivate a group of people to give you a reward?"

Shen Yujia looked around and saw that all of them were Wei Changying's beloved ones, so he hemmed and hawed and said, "Nephew knows that Auntie has no more such beautiful girls to reward, but if the elders can give them to Fourth Uncle, why can't they give them to some more people?"

Wei Changying was stunned before she realized that this man was suggesting that he should go and ask for a beauty queen from the elders who had sent someone to Shen Zanghui last time. She was speechless for a moment before she said, "You've got a good idea, but you're asking me to go and be the difficult one?"

"My nephew is a lowly official, and his seniority is low, so where is there a place for my nephew to speak before the elders? Auntie is different." Shen Yujia salivated and said, "It is difficult for nephew to say this, but if auntie opens her mouth, who in our clan can not give auntie face?"

"This great victory is something that hasn't been seen in decades, and you won't continue to have a low official status in the future." Wei Chang Ying smiled faintly at his words and revealed the news. Although His Majesty was worried that the Shen family was too powerful and would jeopardize the imperial power, the results of this great victory were remarkable, beheading tens of thousands of people, chasing the Di people thousands of miles deep into the grasslands, and even killing off the Di Grand Monarch Mu Xiuer.

Such a merit is not rewarded, the saint can do it, the ministers will also have to clamor. Shen Yujia's lieutenant, certainly to be raised up.

Shen Yujia, who had already been a lieutenant of Xilang for more than ten years, had his eyes light up when he heard this, but he still said, "The Jians are at least all of my nephew's grandparent elders, so my nephew dares to come to Auntie to ask for a favor, but he doesn't dare to go to the Jians and tell them about it. I still beg Auntie to make a decision for nephew!"

Seeing his insistence, Wei Changying smiled, thinking that it would be good to take this opportunity to knock those Elders, so he asked, "How much do you want?"

Shen Yujia came to a lion's mouth: "nephew this time out of the war, set up worthy of the reward of beauty of the merit of the subordinates, how also short of one hundred and eighty to be enough!"

"A hundred and eighty, that's going to empty out the backyards of the Sages!" Wei Changying reminded, "Earlier, they only sent seventeen even when they sent people to your fourth uncle." She only wanted to knock those people, whether they were all Shen family members or elders. If they didn't make a big mistake, Wei Changying didn't want to go too far.

Especially now that the army has just returned, the whole of Xiliang is very happy! This is a blow to the morale of the army if the mood of the people is spoiled at this juncture.

Shen Yujia, however, refused to reduce it, saying, "As they can send the fourth uncle seventeen alone, not to mention the many generals under my nephew's command?"

"What you want is a beautiful concubine, not an ordinary maid. All the ladies are chosen since childhood to buy the dignified eyes, and after ten years of training. How can you get them together in such a hurry?" Wei Changyin laughed and said, "Or you could just reward the lesser ones with a servant girl. To be honest, I don't think those girls are beautiful and good at singing and dancing. In my opinion, in a small family's life, these people are not as skillful as a servant girl."

Shen Yujia insisted: ''Now that the sons have returned from their great victory, what they are most looking forward to is to get a beautiful woman. As for what Auntie said about getting by, it's true. But even if Mei Ji didn't know how to run a household before, she could still learn after she passed away! But a woman who was born with mediocre looks can't suddenly look good after she passes through the door, right?"

He also said, "In any case, the elders are getting old, so it's proper for them to enjoy their family life. Why do we need so many beautiful women? It's just a waste of food to keep them in the backyard! It would be better to take them out as a reward, and it's also a way to multiply the population!"

This was said in such a way that everyone in the hall covered their mouths and snickered.

Wei Changying also snapped, "How can you talk about the Elders like that? What nonsense!"

However, Shen Yujia still insisted that Wei Changying promise to ask the elders for another batch of beauties for him, the more the better, and only then was he satisfied and left.

Waiting for him to leave, Zhu Zhen said in surprise: "The servant girl also thought that Captain Shen was asking to see young lady this day in order to apologize on behalf of his brother, Grand Master Shen, for what happened before! I didn't want him to continue to ask people to come, and he didn't even mention the matter of Grand Master Shen until he left!"

"I've long heard that this man has a sloppy temperament, but now that I've seen him, it's true." Wei Changying didn't care, and said, "Shen Yuyi is Shen Yuyi, and Shen Yujia is certainly a brother, but he hasn't made such a mistake that he needs to involve his brother," and then said to Zhu Yi, "Go and ask around, among the people who had sent Meiqi to the fourth brother, was there anyone who had offended Yujia? Why does he have to pester me to agree to ask for someone on his behalf?"

Zhu Yi, however, said, "Back to Young Lady, there is no need to inquire. The maidservant knows what's going on!"

Wei Changying asked curiously, "What is it?"

"Young lady you know Shen is certainly Shen's children, but not very proficient in literary matters ......" Zhu Yi pondered the appropriate wording, said, "a few years ago a festival, Shen went to the three old master's residence to attend a banquet, on the table line wine order, to the Shen lieutenant when a moment of thought - originally Shen lieutenant has recognized the penalty wine, the results of that day on the table called to help the brothel, there is a called wisp, out of the side of the mockery of a Shen lieutenant!"

Wei Changying frowned and asked, "Then what?"

"Captain Shen was furious!" Zhu Yi said, "The servant girl heard that Captain Shen said at that time, to the effect that he was dedicated to serving the country on the border, and was not ashamed of heaven and earth, and that the wine order on the table was only a minor matter, and that a mere prostitute for fun would dare to criticize him for not being literate. And that Shen's family is a martial arts family, requiring the clan's sons and daughters to be literate that is the young lady your mother's family to be able to do that!"

"Then how did Third Uncle do it?" Wei Chang Ying asked.

Zhu Yi said: ''The thing is here: according to say Shen Du Lieutenant so said, in the sense of reason, the three old master even if not dispose of that wisp of child, should also hand her over to Shen Du Lieutenant. But the three old master perfunctory past, not two days but the wisp into the backyard. To this day, that wisp of a child still serves the Third Elder Master and is very much liked by the Elder Master!"

Wei Chang Ying understood, so he said to Huang, "Auntie, go back and tell Third Uncles that this time, each family is offering a beauty queen, and Wizier must be listed among them!"

Zhu Yi said at the side: "Young Lady, the Third Elder Master quite likes this wisp, it is said that wisp is self-possessed of favor, it is even the Third Elder Master's Yuan Mate's hairdresser wife is not in the eye."

"Being a concubine but not taking the first wife in her eyes, with no one in her sight to this extent, I think her eyes must be greatly abnormal as well." Wei Chang Ying faintly said, "If Third Uncle is this senile, take this wisp's eyeballs and give it to him to sober up!"

Wei Changying said this lightly, not putting the matter of plucking out Witch's eyes in the slightest bit to heart, and Zhu Yi couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he heard this! Zhu Yi's fear of the young lady deepened.

Huang, however, smiled and said, "What the young lady said is true, this wisp is something, but just relying on her youthful beauty to gain the favor of the Third Elder Master, she has even become so frivolous that she is simply seeking her own death! The Third Elder Master is old, and I think that he has lost sight of the situation, and has condoned her insolence like this!"

...... This third uncle is not like Shen Kaoru, who belongs to the valve master's lineage, and although it is said that it is not as obvious as the father of the former Xilang assassin's father's aversion to Wei Changying, it cannot be said to be close to him.

Originally, after Wei Chang Ying took over the power, as long as he did not come out to make mistakes, he was not too lazy to kill all the people.

But now that he knew that Shen Yujia had a grudge against him and wanted to take revenge - Shen Yujia, who was low in rank but loyal and his husband's right-hand man, and his third uncle, who was high in rank but indifferent and of little use - Wei Changying chose Shen Yujia without even having to think about it.

If Shen Yujia wanted to take revenge on Wu Er, let's just say he had enough reason to do so, and even if he didn't have any reason, Wei Changying would have gotten the man for him.

As for Shen Yujia this time to come over did not say anything for his brother Shen Yuyi well ...... Wei Changying faintly said: "He trusts husband, since he will not because Shen Yuyi did something wrong will be panicked, busy pleading guilty, fear of being delayed to be held accountable. This person can stay in the position of captain for more than ten years, indeed, he has his own valley in his chest."

Huang said, "What the young lady said is true, just by looking at this matter of wisps, we know that Captain Shen seems to be brash, but actually knows everything."

The whole plan to kill Qiudi Great monarch Mu Xiuer was led by Shen Zangfeng, assisted by Shen Yujia to get out. Now the purpose is achieved, Shen Zangfeng prestige higher level, has come to formally ask about the affairs of the clan, completely sit in the name of the next valve master, grasp the real power of the clan moment.

Even if Shen Yujia does not come to want to beauty, when Shen Zangfeng returned to Xilian City, surely it is also necessary to personally take over the power of the Mingpei Hall, to clean up the top and bottom, to cultivate cronies, to exclude dissenters ...... Shen Yujia is but to give a citation, to take this opportunity to give himself the revenge of the year.

...... There is even the possibility that these years have passed, Shen Yujia long ago did not care about this section of the grudge back then, but valued what Shen Zangfeng is going to do next, and purposely contributed to a citation.

All in all, the autumn di big monarch was executed, even if ugumeng and ayitahu these remnants still exist in the world, but also are greatly wounded, but also each other to compete for the position of the big monarch - the foreign enemy for a time to take care of their own time, the border can always be stable for a while. And go to the border to build three years now just past two years less than the rest of the year, Shen Zang Feng will not be in the Ming Pei Hall to eat, drink and play in the leisure of the day is not?

Wei Changying's seizure of power was only to stabilize her husband's back, so that Shen Zangfeng would not have to fight with Mu Xiuer and be distracted by the clan's calculations. As a woman, even though she was nominally the head of Ming Pei Tang, she could only manage a limited number of things. But since Shen Zangfeng had freed up his hands, there was nothing to stop him from asking questions.

Wei Changying leaned back on the soft couch and narrowed his eyes slightly, calculating what he knew about the situation in the clan ......
