In the next few days, after Ge Chunru begged Xiao Yuanshi in tears, he invited the best imperial physician in the capital to look at his brother-in-law's leg he knew from his past networking.

In addition, a rumour began to spread among the dandies.

It turned out that General Weiyuan had the same hobby as the emperor's uncle and already had some relationship with Ge Chunyi a long time ago.

Previously, many people did not believe it.

However, after seeing Xiao Yuanshi running around for his brother-in-law's broken leg, those who were still in doubt gradually began to believe it.

Who would care so much about their brother-in-law?

Shi Qingluo had instigated Liang Youxiao to deliberately spread this news to others.

If they wanted to cause trouble, they had to set the context right.

She also did not want to harm Liang Youxiao, Xi Rui, and the old profligate imperial uncle while she taught Xiao Hanzheng's scumbag father a lesson.

If the news spread that Xiao Yuanshi had a personal problem and had a relationship with Ge Chunyi, the gossipers would definitely feel excited.

As more people talked about it, this rumour would gradually be transformed into reality as if they had seen it with their own eyes.

Similarly, if there wasn't any footpath, as more people walked along it, there would be one.

That's right, it was Shi Qingluo's idea to let the news spread that Xiao Yuanshi had a relationship with Ge Chunyi.

This would also cause that woman, her brother, as well as Xiao Yuanshi, to be disgusted.

Then, Xi Rui made up a story for the emperor's uncle after Liang Youxiao's persuasion.

Before Xiao Yuanshi realised it, this big gossip had spread far and wide beyond the capital.

After Xiao Hanzheng's people heard about it, they spread the news among the commoners in the capital.

Even some of the old men in the imperial court had heard about it from their younger generations at home.

They did not believe it since there was no evidence, but they still had some doubts.

Because of this, they looked at Xiao Yuanshi with a hint of speciality.

Xiao Yuanshi had been in the imperial court for the past two days, and always received some strange gazes. He was very puzzled.

When he returned home, his little wife would pester him to investigate this and also find the best imperial physician for her brother.

Similarly, his brother-in-law became extremely sinister and wanted to take revenge.

He even insisted that Xi Rui was the one who did it without investigating further.

Hence, he was exceptionally annoyed.

So one day when his colleague from the Ministry of War asked him to go for a drink, he went.

He happened to run into the emperor's uncle who was drinking with a group of hedonists, including Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao.

How could the two of them miss the big show? Of course, it would be thrilling if they saw it with their own eyes.

These two groups of people greeted each other downstairs and went up to their respective private rooms.

Very soon, the waiter came in with wine.

He set up the wine glasses and even poured wine for Xiao Yuanshi and the others.
