Chapter 417 Min Qiaoshi wrote a handwritten letter
Madam Min was startled. "What did you call me?"
Ji Huailang said with a grin, "My mother is the legal wife, and you are the concubine. It's not too much for me to call you Aunt Qiao, is it?"
Before Min Qiaoshi could react, Li Sanqi and Wen Xiu both widened their eyes in surprise.
"Madam, what does he mean by that?" Li Sanqi asked subconsciously. "What is your relationship with the Marquis of Pingyan's mansion?"
Wenxiu tugged at Li Sanqi, "Seventh Princess, please calm down."
Li Sanqi bit her lip, staring straight at Min Qiaoshi, waiting for her answer.
However, Madam Min Qiao ignored Li Sanqi and instead looked at Ji Huailang with amusement, "I didn't expect that Madam Min Ji and Madam Wang would talk to you about the past."
Ji Huailang shook his head and laughed, "They didn't tell me anything. I found all of this out myself."
He shrugged dismissively. "Is it that hard to know all this?"
“I started secretly investigating several people involved when my father began planning this marriage alliance.”
"Seventh Princess, Min Pan'er, Lady Qinghe."
"Then, isn't it only natural to discover past events through subtle clues?"
Madam Min smiled, "You are very smart. Min Ji has taught you very well."
This is the difference between love and not love.
Think of Min Rong, then look at Ji Huailang...
Madam Min quickly composed herself and got to the point: "What is your intention in saying all this now?"
Ji Huailang looked at Madam Min Qiao with a disappointed expression. "In my father's words, Aunt Qiao is a very wise old lady, but after meeting you, I feel that my father has exaggerated."
Min Qiao frowned.
Then Ji Huailang continued, "Didn't I already tell you, I was threatening you? And you still ask me what I intend to do. Tsk tsk."
Madam Min Qiao's face darkened: "So, you're not trying to tell me that if I don't write the letter as you say, you'll reveal Min Ji's treasonous identity and then use the Dayan Emperor's hand to confiscate the property and exterminate the Xuanping Marquis's family, are you?"
"Aunt Qiao is indeed clever. That's exactly what I meant." Ji Huailang laughed, "So? Are the lives of your sons, grandsons, and granddaughters enough to threaten you?"
"If that's not enough, how about adding the Seventh Princess, this maid, the two maids outside, and the lives of Qiao Jingyuan and Qiao Jingyao?"
After saying that, without waiting for Madam Min's reply, Ji Huailang added with a smile, "Oh, by the way, Aunt Qiao doesn't need to worry about whether our Pingyan Marquis's Mansion will be punished after revealing our undercover identity."
"Because both the Emperor and the Crown Prince know about our family's past."
"So, you don't need to worry about that."
Madam Min smiled and said, "As expected of Min Ji's son, he is ruthless in the same vein."
However, Min Ji likes to manipulate people's hearts, leading them into traps without their knowledge. Ji Huailang, on the other hand, prefers to be ruthless, leaving people with no choice but to submit.
Ji Huailang shamelessly replied, "Aunt Qiao, you flatter me."
"Can Aunt Qiao write the handwritten letter I wanted for me now?"
After saying that, without waiting for Madam Min's reply, he added again: "Perhaps Aunt Qiao feels there is still room for maneuver regarding the threat from Dayan."
"But what about what's right in front of us?"
He glanced meaningfully at Li Sanqi and Wen Xiu as he spoke.
Min Qiaoshi had no doubt that if she dared to refuse, Ji Huailang would definitely target Wen Xiu.
As for Li Sanqi, Ji Huailang probably won't do anything to her unless absolutely necessary.
But who can guarantee that?
After a moment's thought, Madam Min Qiao reluctantly agreed, "Alright, I'll write it for you."
“However,” she changed the subject, “after I finish writing, I will take them with me when I leave.”
“Okay.” Ji Huailang agreed without hesitation.
As long as they are in Xijing, they cannot escape his grasp. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether they stay in the villa or the Qiao residence.
We can simply send more people to keep an eye on things.
Having received an affirmative reply, Madam Min Qiao did not hesitate any longer. She walked to her desk, picked up her pen, and wrote a letter in a flowing and elegant style.
"It's finished." Madam Min put down her pen and stepped aside.
Ji Huailang stepped forward to examine the contents of the handwritten letter.
In the letter, Madam Min revealed her identity and stated that the marriage alliance was a complete scam from beginning to end.
The marriage alliance was fake, the princess was fake, and even the attack on the marriage alliance procession was carried out by the Dayan spy who had infiltrated Da'e.
Although there were some minor issues with word choice and sentence structure in the handwritten letter, the overall content was written according to his intended meaning.
Ji Huailang was very satisfied with this.
"Now, can I leave with my men?"
Min Qiao waved to Li Sanqi and Wen Xiu.
The two men quickly stepped forward and took Min Qiao's arms on either side, as if they were about to leave.
Ji Huailang smiled and gestured for him to proceed, saying in a light tone, "Please go ahead."
Min Qiaoshi pulled the two of them and walked quickly outside.
But just before leaving, Li Sanqi stopped and turned back to ask, "Ji Huailang, I don't understand why you put on such a show in front of us if you didn't need me to persuade the old lady at all?"
"What does the Seventh Princess think?" Ji Huailang smiled, a smile full of meaning.
Not getting an answer, Li Sanqi couldn't help but frown.
Min Qiao tugged at her, "Let's leave here first."
Wen Xiu kept giving Li Sanqi meaningful glances.
Li Sanqi didn't insist and followed their lead to walk outside.
No one stopped them along the way, and the three of them left the Royal Villa without any problems and boarded the waiting carriage.
After everyone left, Ji Huailang summoned someone and instructed, "Go and report to His Highness the Crown Prince that the news about the fake princess can be released."
"Yes, sir." The soldier acknowledged the order and left.
Ji Huailang, holding the dried ink of the handwritten letter, returned to the Pingyan Marquis's residence in a cheerful mood.
He had originally intended to boast about his victories to Marquis Pingyan, but found that Marquis Pingyan was not in his residence. He had no choice but to return to the army and obey the Crown Prince's orders.
Meanwhile, Min Qiao and her companions returned to the Qiao residence with mixed feelings.
Just as they were preparing to gather everyone together to talk about what had happened to each other since they parted ways, they received news that Jiang Hongling had left for the embassy early that morning and had not returned yet.
The people, who had just breathed a sigh of relief after rescuing Li Sanqi and Wen Xiu, were once again on edge.
Madam Min immediately sent people to inquire outside the embassy, and the information they gathered confirmed that Jiang Hongling had indeed entered the embassy. However, she did not come out after entering.
Seeing everyone's worry, Li Sanqi didn't dare to hide anything and told them about Min Pan'er's experience. She also told them about how Min Pan'er tried to get revenge on them by having someone force themselves on her and Wen Xiu, but ended up having her leg broken.
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but worry about Ajiu and Jiang Hongling.
After a long day of running around, everyone was tired and went to bed early.
Nothing was said that night.
The next morning, just as dawn was breaking and before Madam Min Qiao had even gotten out of bed, she suddenly heard someone outside exclaim, "Miss Ajiu is back!"
Min Qiao suddenly woke up and sat up.
