Mrs. Tian knew very well that all this was because Tian Luowen had framed Rong Xuqing.
The only person she could seek help from now was Hu.
"Qinglian, for the sake of our sisterhood, please help me, just this once."
Mrs. Tian slid down to her knees.
"Go and beg General Rong, beg him to let us go, let us go... We must stay away from Kyoto and never appear in front of them again..."
"You are a family, they will definitely give you this face."
"Rong Xuqing is unharmed, why won't they let us go..."
She was already sobbing.
“…” Mrs. Hu looked embarrassed.
After pondering for a moment, she helped Mrs. Tian up and comforted her, "Go back first, I will help you find a solution."
After sending Madam Tian away, Rong Shihan asked, "Mother, are you really going to beg them?"
"How is that possible? Even if I die, I won't show weakness to them!"
…
Mrs. Tian waited at home for two days, but there was no news from Mrs. Hu.
She came to the Marquis' Mansion again but was refused entry on the grounds that Hu had gone to the temple to pray.
Mrs. Tian then realized that what Mrs. Hu said the day before was all an excuse and she had never intended to help her.
Helpless, she had no choice but to go to the general's mansion.
"General Rong, please forgive us. We know we were wrong. I swear, we will stay away and never get in your way again..."
Mrs. Tian knelt at the door, kowtowed and shouted loudly.
Attracting a crowd of onlookers.
"What's going on? How did she provoke General Rong?"
"Don't you know what happened on the Ghost Festival? His son Tian Luowen kidnapped a child from the Salesian Home and led Miss Rong out of the city in the middle of the night, nearly killing him at the hands of an evil spirit. Now he's being targeted, and a murder case has been uncovered. Mr. Tian has also been investigated for accepting bribes five years ago, and both father and son have been imprisoned in the Dali Temple for several days."
"They have truly committed a crime. Can General Rong forgive them? Can the law forgive them?"
"That's right. Maybe he wants the general to speak up so that he can save his life..."
When Qin Nanjing heard this, she hurried to the door.
"Madam Tian, what are you doing? They are breaking the law, what does this have to do with my general's mansion?"
She frowned and looked extremely unhappy.
How come everything can be blamed on our General's Mansion?
"Mrs. Rong, I know it was our fault. My son shouldn't have deceived Miss Rong. We had no choice at that time..."
"It was all Hu Qinglian... She was the one who came up with the idea. She was the one who had Luo Wen seduce Miss Rong and embezzle her dowry. She was the one who made us do it."
Mrs. Tian pounded on the ground again and again, blood oozing from her forehead.
"Just let me go, let us go..."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
"The Hu Qinglian she's talking about, is that the Hu Qinglian?"
"The second daughter-in-law of the Marquis of Annan."
"This..." People couldn't help but click their tongues. "That's her niece, a family member, and she actually plotted against her own family."
"No wonder Miss Rong kept denying her relationship with Tian Luowen last year. It turns out she discovered she was being deceived."
"Luckily we discovered it. If we had really gotten into trouble, Miss Rong's life would have been ruined!"
"People like this really deserve it!"
Some people in the crowd who admired Rong Xuqing looked angry.
They only dared to admire this fairy-like beautiful woman from afar, but this man actually dared to deceive her!
"Mrs. Tian, instead of begging me here, why not prepare some food and go see them for the last time."
"When they did something wrong, they should have thought there would be consequences today."
After saying that, Qin Nanjing turned around and went back.
Mrs. Tian wanted to stop them, but was stopped by the guard at the door with a drawn sword.
"retreat!"
"Madam Rong, please let my son go, let us go..." She could only cry loudly outside the door, her forehead was scratched and blood flowed down her cheeks.
"Isn't Madam Rong too ruthless..." Someone couldn't bear it, "Isn't Miss Rong fine?"
"Are you out of your mind?" another man couldn't help but roll his eyes at him. "Didn't you hear what someone just said? That father and son, one murdered, the other embezzled, and Madam Rong can just let them go!"
"That's right!" Another person couldn't help but sneer, "General Rong is honest and upright, and Madam Rong is kind and benevolent. If they hadn't committed any crime, she wouldn't have spoken up for them!"
After the drought, no one was allowed to sully the reputation of the General's Mansion.
Mrs. Tian knelt at the gate of the general's mansion until the sun set.
Suddenly remembering something, she forced herself to stand up and quickly left.
That night, someone broke into the Dali Temple and demanded someone.
"Cai Hong, the Dali Temple is not the Chengyang Marquis' Mansion, it is not a place where you can act wildly! Leave immediately!" Jiang Lingyu stood in front of everyone and confronted Cai Hong.
"I'm not doing anything. I just came to Jiang Shaoqing to ask for someone." Cai Hong said nonchalantly, "Give it to me and I'll leave."
"All of these are serious criminals of the imperial court. You can't just take them if you want them!"
"Then how can Jiang Shaoqing give it to me?"
"This is not the place for you to bargain!"
Cai Hong sneered, "Jiang Lingyu, you're keeping your eye on the Tian family, aren't you just trying to show off in front of Rong Xuqing? Give her to me, and I'll help you mediate. I'll definitely help you get the beauty..."
Before he could finish his words, Jiang Lingyu's sword was already pointing at his throat.
"I'll say it again." Jiang Lingyu said in a deep voice, "Don't let me hear her name from your mouth again!"
Cai Hong loves beautiful women, and Rong Xuqing is the best in the capital. However, because she is Rong Baichuan's beloved daughter, he dare not provoke her and can only satisfy her with words.
Cai Hong lowered his eyes and looked at the cold sword.
"Oh! You're angry again..." He raised his hand and gently pushed away the coldness on his neck. "Jiang Lingyu, Jiang Lingyu, you're a coward, but you dare to offend all the officials in Kyoto. You're brave, but you can't even say that you like me..."
Cai Hong approached Jiang Lingyu with a look of wanting a beating on his face, "How about...big brother show you how?"
Before Jiang Lingyu could attack, he quickly retreated, "Watch this, big brother... I'll only demonstrate this once."
After saying that, he took his men away.
Jiang Lingyu frowned in confusion.
What is this guy doing?!
…
The next day.
A piece of news that was originally impossible to happen exploded in Kyoto City.
"Young Marquis Cai is asking to marry Miss Rong? Is this true?"
"Of course it's true. People at the Chengyang Marquis's Mansion said that the young marquis went to the palace early this morning to ask His Majesty for permission to marry him. I wonder what the result is now?"
"That's definitely not acceptable! This is just pushing Miss Renrong into the fire pit!"
"But the entire family of Marquis Chengyang died fighting for the country two years ago, leaving him with only this one child. Your Majesty will at least consider Marquis Chengyang's face..."
"That's impossible. General Rong is still here."
"Hurry, hurry..." Qin Nanjing hurried out, holding Chaoxi in her arms. "What's going on? Why did Cai Hong suddenly ask for a marriage?"
Rong Xuqing followed out with a gloomy expression.
"Don't be anxious, mother." Rong Chaoxi stroked Qin Nanjing's chest.
[My sister is going to marry my brother-in-law, so that stud is the only one who can't get it.]
Qin Nanjing: ...? ?
Who taught her these dirty words?
