Chapter 2: Ex-husband, don't go... run

Su Qianqian looked sad and remained silent. Seeing that Qin Hanzhang did not answer, she was about to put the stack of breakup fee away when she saw a slender, bony hand pinching the other side of the breakup fee. With a slight force, the stack of papers changed hands.

"What is the Marquis doing? Has the Marquis changed his mind?" Su Qianqian was slightly startled and her voice trembled.

[No, my house, shop, farm and money are all gone! Hurry up and say that you are a real man who keeps his word. If you want to ruthlessly abandon me, my ex-husband’s brother, don’t go…run! 】

Qin Hanzhang's eyes jumped violently, he suppressed the twitching of the corners of his lips, lowered his eyes and thought.

This matter was too weird. He absolutely could not let Su Qianqian go immediately. If he wanted to verify whether Su Qianqian's words were true or not, the simplest way was right in front of him.

"Cousin, you..." Qi Wanniang's voice trembled. Why would she go back on her word?

"Su, why did you poison Zhiqing's medicine when you went to Wutong Courtyard?" Qin Hanzhang shook the stack of papers in front of Su Qianqian and asked.

Su Qianqian: ...Using grass to tease the donkey?

[Why do you say that?] Since everyone hopes that it is me who poisoned, then I will do it! 】

Su Qianqian recalled those memories, and felt inexplicably angry in her heart, but her face was calm: "Because I was jealous of Lu Zhiqing, and I was afraid that she would take my place, and that she would win your favor."

[Don’t you all think so?] It's easy to make me admit it. If I admit it, just give me the separation fee and the divorce certificate, and we'll go our separate ways. I'll go my way and you'll go your way! 】

Qin Hanzhang's eyes trembled slightly and fell on Su Qianqian's indifferent face. Even though she had been sleepless for several months and had just experienced life and death, she had to say that Master Su's second daughter was very pretty.

Especially at this moment, there was a layer of frost covering her fair skin, and that coldness and alienation made people dare not blaspheme. Compared with the timid and cautious girl five years ago, something was different.

Could it be that the Qin family really wronged her?

When her grandmother and mother questioned her, she denied it at first. Later, several witnesses confirmed that it was she who had been to Wutong Courtyard, and Lu Zhiqing was poisoned and fell into a coma right after she left. Then she admitted it.

What she said was: So what if it’s me, if you say it’s me, then it’s me!

At that time, I thought I was exposed, so I pretended to be wronged and admitted it. Now it seems that there is something fishy about it.

"Follow me to Wutong Courtyard and call those witnesses. I want you to admit your mistakes sincerely, so that you won't leave the Qin family and ruin the reputation of our Wuning Marquisate."

Qin Hanzhang was used to giving orders, so without waiting for Su Qianqian's consent, he lifted his robe and walked out.

"Cousin...my sister-in-law didn't deny him..." Qi Wanniang hurriedly followed him. Why did she have to ask again when it was already confirmed?

"I'm not dissatisfied, Your Majesty, there's no need to..." Su Qianqian thought that the gears of fate started to turn, but did it turn in the opposite direction?

[I am convinced. I am really convinced. I am convinced not only verbally but also in my heart! The old lady is wise, the lady is wise, the marquis is wise! This time your decision is truly right, give me the divorce papers and the money! 】

Su Qianqian was wailing in her heart. Seeing Qin Hanzhang walking as fast as the wind, she could only lift her skirt and catch up with him. It was just another humiliation for her. In order to get a happy life that she got without any effort, she endured it.

The Wuning Marquis Mansion covers a very large area.

Nine years ago, the old Marquis Wuning and his two sons died in the battlefield when they were about to return victoriously. This incident became a shame for the Marquis Wuning's Mansion.

Before that, several generations of the Qin family had died for the Great Qi, and the Wuning Marquisate was very popular. Successive emperors had bestowed countless titles and rewards on it. By the time of the old Marquis Wuning, even the residence of a prince or a royal family was not half as valuable as the Wuning Marquisate.

This makes Su Qianqian suffer.

The original owner was in poor health and was making a fuss, threatening to hang herself to the Qin family. Unexpectedly, an operational error caused her to travel through time. At this time, her body was still very weak, and it was the hot July. She was out of breath and sweating profusely after walking a few steps.

[Are you going to take an exam or catch someone cheating?] Why run so fast? No wonder you never gave your second brother sex until you died. Any woman who chases you will turn into Nezha the Third Prince! 】

Su Qianqian slowed down and stopped chasing. If she didn't go, the case would have no one to take the blame and it would never be solved. Two personal maids, one holding an umbrella for her and the other fanning her, followed by four maids and old women, strolling forward leisurely and majestically.

Qin Hanzhang: Is this what a lady from a noble family should say? !

His handsome face turned red and his steps froze. He pretended to look at the scenery and gradually slowed down his pace. Until Su Qianqian caught up with him, the two of them walked side by side to Wutong Courtyard.

Qi Wanniang, who was panting beside him, said:... Cousin, look at me!

Seeing the Marquis coming in person, the maids in Wutong Courtyard secretly straightened their clothes and came out to serve him carefully.

Lu Zhiqing, the owner of the courtyard, and Qin Hanzhang's sister, who was staying in the marquis's mansion, were still unconscious in their bedroom and unable to see anyone.

Su Qianqian didn't even look at the maids who glanced at her sideways. She walked in with the airs of a mistress of the house, sat directly in the main seat in the hall, and waited coldly for Qin Hanzhang to make a decision.

Soon, the fourth daughter of the second house, Qin Yuping, and the fifth daughter, Qin Yuqi, who had testified that day, arrived, and Qin Hanzhang's sister, the third daughter, Qin Yuzhuo, also came to join in the fun.

"Brother, why did you call Yuping and Yuqi here again? Why is she still here?" Qin Yuzhuo felt suffocated when he saw Su Qianqian, and wished she would disappear from his sight immediately.

Is it me who wants to be here? It was your brother who hadn't cleared the water from his head and pulled me here. You are so powerful, sister-in-law, take him out to bask in the sun and shake his head, then let me out. I will thank you for eight generations of ancestors! 】

When Qin Hanzhang heard these words, although he didn't quite understand them, he knew they were not good things.

Glancing at Su Qianqian, who remained silent and expressionless, he couldn't help but sneer. It turned out that the daughter of the Taifu, who appeared gentle and quiet on the surface, was so restless and unruly in her heart.

What should I do if I can't scold her even if I'm angry?

"Sister Yuzhuo, don't worry. Su has already admitted it. How can such a person stay in the mansion? My cousin will naturally drive her out of the mansion."

Qi Wanniang stopped pretending to be kind and gently comforted Qin Yuzhuo.

[Are you anxious to win over your sister-in-law?] Didn't I just scold her behind her back, saying that she was rude and stupid, but had the same good luck as her mother? You have to coax her well, otherwise she will slap you so hard that you will be pressed against the wall and can't get down! 】

Qin Hanzhang: Cough cough cough...

"Yuping Yuqi, I have thought about it carefully. I should ask about Zhiqing's poisoning in person and make Su Shi convinced, so as not to spread the news and damage the reputation of our mansion."

Qin Hanzhang glanced at Qi Wanniang who was still posing coquettishly, his eyes turned cold, and he turned back to look at his cousin. The two little girls nodded repeatedly, and were very awed by this cousin who had just become the Marquis of Wuning.

"Why do you think it was Su who poisoned and not someone else?" Qin Hanzhang looked dignified.

Qin Yuping is timid. Looking at her sister, Qin Yuqi raised her chin and glanced at Su Qianqian:

"Need I say more? The only people who came to Sister Zhiqing's yard that day, besides my sisters and cousin Wanniang, was Su. She was the only one who had always been dissatisfied with Sister Zhiqing, so it was naturally she who poisoned her!"

Qin Hanzhang was dumbfounded. This turned out to be the evidence his mother had been talking about!

"Also, cousin Wan Niang's maid Chun Liu saw with her own eyes that Su sprinkled a powder into sister Zhi Qing's medicine bowl. That was naturally poison." Qin Yuping also added in a low voice.

Qin Hanzhang looked at Qi Wanniang, and her maid Chunliu immediately stood up and said it again.

"Su, do you have any explanation?" Qin Hanzhang turned around and asked Su Qianqian.

"I have no excuse." Su Qianqian replied coldly.

[What a bullshit excuse!] If people can believe such words, is there any use in making excuses? I wouldn't allow Lu Zhiqing to make the news known to everyone, but you're still a fool and poison her? Do you think I am as stupid as you Qin family members?

Hey...there is still medicine hidden under the pillow in Qi Wanniang's room. Who is she going to give it to again? They just stared at me and forced me to confess. Has anyone checked where the poison was? Her maid pointed at me and the thief cried "stop thief"! 】

Qin Hanzhang's eyes turned slightly. It turned out that although the Qin family's prejudice against Su Qianqian had changed slightly in the past five years, once they encountered similar things, they couldn't help but think of what she had done in the past!

"Come here, all the rooms of those who entered Wutong Courtyard that day must be searched to see if there is any remaining poison!" Qin Hanzhang ordered in a cold voice.
