No wonder Aliu said that they could not enter Sheng's house. It turned out that it was because there were formations in this mansion. There were not many people who knew the formations now, and even Yan Zhou had never seen them. They just saw some things mentioned in books about one and a little bit of things. This little bit of things could not help him break the formation. It seemed that he could only retreat first.

In Sheng's house, Sheng Yuanbai was having a drink with several officials from Jiangzhou he invited, and then a servant hurried in and whispered in his ear: "Master, someone wanted to break into the mansion just now, but now he has left."

Sheng Yuanbai put away his smile and nodded, signaling him to go down.

"Hey, Brother Sheng, what happened? Why did his face change all of a sudden?" A man wearing a jade crown and holding an exposed woman in his arms, holding a wine glass in his hand, looking at Sheng Yuanbai with a frivolous look.

A trace of contempt flashed in Sheng Yuanbai's eyes, and then he hung up his signature smile and said gently: "The servants at home are too fussy. No big deal has happened. Today I invite all my brothers to come here just to drink 300 cups. How can I disturb my nature because of some trivial matters? Come and drink."

As he said that, he picked up the wine glass on the table and signaled to everyone. The other four people also held the wine glass with great confidence. Only one seemed to be very resentful of this kind of scene. He reluctantly picked up the wine glass. Unlike the other four people who were holding the beauty in their arms, the beauty beside him sat cowardly and acted as a wine-pourling girl.

"Is this banquet held by Mr. Sheng, Lord Qin, dissatisfied with it, why did he look so handsome?" Sheng Yuanbai asked this out-of-equity young man considerately.

This Lord Qin was named Qin Zheng. He was transferred to Jiangzhou after Jiang Yi to serve as the county magistrate. Because Sheng Yuanbai and others did not understand the temperament of the newly appointed prefect, they invited the county magistrate to come and wanted to inquire, but they did not expect that this person was quite a bit unstoppable.

After Sheng Yuanbai asked this, the other people also put down the wine cup in their hands and looked at Lord Qin with a bad expression. Although he was the prefect, he was not the real prefect after all. The person here has been in Jiangzhou for several years. How could he be afraid of this small prefect?

"Sir, please forgive me. Qin just doesn't like beauty or wine. He has his wife and children at home. I'll forgive Qin for leaving first." Qin Zheng didn't even look at Sheng Yuanbai. He was just a small businessman, scholar, farmers, industry and commerce, and was at the last place. How could he invite so many officials as the master? He must have a connection with him, and he disdained to be with this group of people.

Several officials present only looked at him coldly. Since they couldn't get back home, Qin Zheng got up on his own, turned around and walked out of the house.

The official who asked Sheng Yuanbai before looked at Qin Zheng's firm back and said sarcastically: "Ignorance, one day I will regret what I did for a few days." The three people around agreed.

Sheng Yuanbai persuaded him kindly: "Stop up, sir, you guys, you are just a young boy who has just entered the officialdom. I'm afraid I don't know how powerful the officialdom is. I'll have to suffer a few hardships to know the depth. There is no need to worry about him like this."

"Brother Sheng is saying, why should we bother with that person? Come on and drink." As soon as Sheng Yuanbai finished speaking, the other person on the left spoke. The beauty beside him gently placed it on his mouth with a wine cup in his hand. The man stared at the beauty's hand with a lustful look, drank a sip of the wine, wrapped his hand along the beauty's arm, and kissed the beauty's lips, causing the beauty to moan.

The others laughed, and somebody praised him, "It's still you boy who knows how to enjoy it."

Sheng Yuanbai kept smiling at the scene in front of him, no one cared about why there was no beauty around him.

"It's late at night. Sheng has prepared a room for you. You can go and rest." Seeing that the night banquet is almost over, Sheng Yuanbai is not in the mood to accompany these four people again. Although he has not discovered the temperament of the prefect tonight, looking at Qin Zheng's reaction, it is believed that the new prefect is also a difficult bone to chew. This matter needs to be planned carefully.

In the west wing, a beautiful woman sat at the table and couldn't help but ask the maid at the door again, "Will you really not come tonight?"

The maid at the door replied respectfully: "Madam, the master has not mentioned that he will come here tonight. Madam should rest as soon as possible." Although the maid showed respect everywhere, Ji Min knew that this was just a sent by Sheng Yuanbai to monitor her, but even so, her heart had completely fallen on him.

Ji Min remembered that more than ten years ago, not long after Sheng Yuanbai arrived in Jiangzhou City, she saw him by chance, and was moved by his handsome appearance and considerate language. He ignored the family's family's foundation to be stopped by him. At that time, Sheng Yuanbai's foundation was unstable, and the Ji family was one of the top merchants in Jiangzhou. What's more, Miss Ji's family is also known as a beauty, so he naturally would not refuse this good marriage.

They were very kind to each other when they got married, but Sheng Yuanbai often went out to do business. The couple had been married for several years but had no children. Seeing Sheng Yuanbai with the help of the Ji family, their business grew bigger and bigger in Jiangzhou City, her father and mother also let go of their prejudice against Sheng Yuanbai and became anxious for her.

But in different rooms, she would not have any children. Every time she mentioned this to Sheng Yuanbai, she was coaxed by him softly. Until Meng Zhong and he went out to do business and saved a very beautiful alien woman back home, everything began to change.

She didn't know if the child in the woman's belly was Sheng Yuanbai. She only knew that she was considerate and caring, and asked about her well-being. Sheng Yuanbai gave all of her to the woman. She hated her, so she had a fierce quarrel with Sheng Yuanbai. Since then, Sheng Yuanbai has never stepped into her house and sent someone to guard her and not to go out.

The alien woman looked apologetic every time she saw her, but so what? Take her husband away. Can you get rid of it with just an apology?

Ji Min bribed a maid and poisoned the alien woman's fetal pill. Unfortunately, the woman seemed to have discovered it. Since then, the woman looked at her with no more guilt and indifference. The poisoned maid also disappeared in the mansion, and Ji Min never saw her again.

The people in Jiangzhou City still thought that she and Sheng Yuanbai were very loving. She had not been pregnant for many years, and Sheng Yuanbai had never thought about taking a concubine. Only she knew what kind of deserted life she lived.
