The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

"Yuan Jie'er, what did you do? Why did Sheng Xiangya send you so many posts?!"

Sheng Yuan came back from work and just entered the house, she saw her father handing her a stack of invitations.

During these two days, the Five Armies Headquarters was busy formulating the training rules for the Five Armies and re-perfecting the personnel promotion and demotion procedures for the Five Armies. Therefore, she stayed in the Headquarters for four or five consecutive days. As a result, she didn't know that her uncle sent her three invitations every day.

  Um, is he just being angry and deliberately bullying her? !

Unfortunately, she was born thick-skinned and was never afraid of being squeezed.

"About seven or eight days ago, the patrol officers and the city guards arrested five people who claimed to be from the Five Armies of the Capital and asked me to identify them. You know how good my memory is. I just worked with the soldiers of the Five Armies of the Capital for more than a month. Even if it's impossible to call out everyone's name, it's not a problem to get to know their faces! I recognize these people. How could they be from the Five Armies?! They are obviously imposters! Therefore, the patrol officers and the city guards sent them to the Internal Guard House."

After Sheng Yuan finished speaking, Sheng Xiangxun immediately understood the problem: "Why did the villains from the Patrol City Division and the City Defense Camp arrest them? Why did they pretend to be soldiers from the five armies of the capital?! Did they commit a crime?!"

"They said someone reported them, saying they had been stalking Grand Princess Hong'an's residence for several days in a row, and had followed Grand Princess Hong'an in and out continuously; the people from the City Patrol and the City Guard watched them for a few days in turn, and found that the report was correct, so they wanted to arrest them and question them, but who would have thought that they would resist arrest violently when they were questioned, so they were arrested and sent to the Inner Guard House."

"Humph, it seems that these five scoundrels are the work of that old fellow Sheng Xiangya!" Sheng Xiangxun reacted quickly. Looking at his eldest brother's invitation and considering his youngest daughter's statement, he immediately figured it out.

"This guy is getting worse and worse as he gets older! He has the ability to keep an eye on Grand Princess Hong'an, but why can't he admit it? Aren't the City Patrol and the City Defense Battalion all his subordinates?! Why is he using your name?! It seems that he is addicted to cheating someone!"

Sheng Xiangxun became more and more angry the more he thought about it. At the end, all new and old grudges came to his mind, and he slammed the table and scolded.

It was not enough to just yell and scold him, Sheng Xiangxun actually planned to take the invitations to the Shengguo Mansion: "I'm going to throw these invitations in that old guy's face! I want to ask him how he has the nerve to do that!"

"Please be quiet!" Zheng saw that something was wrong and immediately stopped him with a duster. "You are throwing the invitation over! Duke Sheng is Yuan'er's uncle. He wants to see his niece, but he still refuses to see her after repeated requests. How can you say that it sounds good to others?!"

Zheng, who dragged her husband back, said angrily, "Think about it carefully. Your eldest brother is in charge of the Nine Cities Military Department, the Patrol Department and the City Defense Camp. Why would he use Sister Yuan's name? With his greed for profit, why would he betray Sister Yuan, a helper, for no reason?!"

"..." Sheng Xiangxun, who was originally confused by anger, was sobered up by Zheng's scolding.

"I understand! The people he sent are descendants of Duke Sheng's former subordinates!"

The Shengguo Mansion also had its own troops. Although they were disbanded during the Chen Dynasty, the contact with the old subordinates has never been cut off, and they are still in touch with each other to this day.

He had heard from his father that his old subordinates would still ask the Shengguo Mansion for help to find a way out for their children who had mediocre family development.

"What on earth was that idiot Sheng Xiangya thinking, to use these people to keep an eye on Grand Princess Hong'an?!"

As soon as An Yu entered the house, he heard the roar. He shuddered and looked at Sheng Yuan in the house uncomfortably.

The couple looked at each other silently, and then looked away without leaving a trace.

Hmm, I feel hungry. (End of this chapter)
