Chapter 2: The House Was Confiscated in vain
"Deputy General Lu, for the sake of our Jiuyuan, could you please be gentler?"
The old lady looked at the palace that was ruined by the imperial guards with distress and was overwhelmed with grief.
"Old lady."
The general in the lead was none other than Deputy General Lu, who had served under the command of the former King of War. He looked at this group of women with pride.
"The emperor orally ordered that Song Jiuyuan was planning to rebel and was caught red-handed. Considering the great contributions Song Jiuyuan had made,
That’s why he was not beheaded, but his military power was taken away, and he was demoted to a commoner, his property was confiscated, and he was exiled. This is already a mercy from the emperor.”
His few words made the women in Prince Zhan's mansion cry even more miserably. They knew that there was no way to escape this time, and they were so sad that they had no time to care about the ruined palace.
"My elder brother treats you well, and this is how you repay him?"
The person who spoke was Song Jiuyuan's younger brother Song Jiuchi, his scarlet eyes glared at Deputy General Lu who was a little too proud of himself.
If it weren't for his eldest brother's promotion, this guy would still be just a gate guard!
Now, he has come to confiscate the property on his own initiative. Is he still eager for such a lucrative job? It is obvious that he is the running dog of the Sixth Prince!
Deputy General Lu sneered, ignoring Song Jiuchi who was full of hatred, and waved his hand and ordered:
"Search carefully, and make sure to find evidence of Song Jiuyuan's rebellion. All the property will be confiscated!"
The imperial guards rushed in and beat up the servant who tried to stop them. Jiang Wan stood calmly in the corner. Now she finally had time to sort out the plot of the book.
On the second day after the original owner married into Prince Zhan's mansion after using all kinds of tricks to climb into bed, Prince Zhan's property was ransacked. The original owner was the princess for only one day.
However...even after being exiled, the original owner's personality did not change. He did all kinds of stupid things along the way, which made the villains disgusted, and he eventually died during exile.
well!
She started with a bad hand, but Jiang Wan never admitted defeat. Even if it was a bad hand, she would play it beautifully.
Just as she was stunned, Chen Qian, who had been dealt with by her before, suddenly pointed the finger at Jiang Wan.
"It's her, it must be her!"
Chen Qian pointed at Jiang Wan angrily, "You're a jinx. You've hurt people since you got married!"
She hated Jiang Wan so much that her teeth were itching. If she hadn't been angry with Jiang Wan, she wouldn't have married into the family and she wouldn't have been exiled!
Chen Qian's appearance instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the palace. The old lady clenched the cane in her hand and stared at Jiang Wan with sharp eyes, suspicion in her eyes.
"Yes, it must be Jiang Wan, the unlucky star, who has harmed us."
"We were so glorious before. Once she marries in, our palace will be ransacked!"
"I don't want to be exiled, wuwuwu..."
“…”
Perhaps they found a place to vent their anger, as everyone looked at Jiang Wan with resentment in their eyes. Jiang Wan looked at Chen Qian coldly.
"You and I entered the sect at the same time. If you must say so, it's hard to say who the unlucky one is!"
Instead of thinking about how to escape at this critical moment, she even wanted to bite her. This woman is really stupid to the extreme.
“It’s you!”
Chen Qian raised her voice, her eyes bloodshot. Song Jiuchi, who had just spoken to the Imperial Guards, also glared at Jiang Wan with disgust.
Just as they were about to get into a commotion, the old lady suddenly said, "Shut up, everyone!"
The old lady had experienced a lot and understood that the emperor had made up his mind to punish them, so it would be useless to make a fuss now.
After all, Jiang Wan is the legitimate daughter of the Shangshu Mansion. Her family might even provide her with financial support when she is exiled, so she should not be offended.
Another thing is that the life and death of their entire mansion now depends on Song Jiuyuan. Even if he doesn't like Jiang, she is his wife after all.
Chen Qian was extremely dissatisfied after being scolded, but at this time, Song Jiuyuan, who had been summoned to the palace early, came back.
But he was carried back!
His lower body was so red that it was shocking to look at. Mrs. Song, who had just recovered, rolled her eyes and fainted when she saw her son's appearance.
“Brother!”
Song Jiuchi rushed forward to greet him. His normally brave elder brother was now beaten to death. His face was pale and it was unclear whether he was dead or alive.
This is the original owner’s man, and also the villain in the book!
Jiang Wan also hurried forward, quietly placed her hand on Song Jiuyuan's pulse, and called out calmly, "Prince!"
sky!
This dog emperor is too cruel!
The person who was still alive in the original owner's memory in the morning was now beaten half to death, and it was obvious that he was breathing out more than breathing in. This was a beating to death, and if he didn't die, he would be disabled at least!
Seeing Song Jiuyuan's appearance, the women from various courtyards who had still held out hope now felt hopeless.
It's over, it's over, they are all finished!
Song Jiuyuan opened his eyes with great effort, and looked at the people who had collapsed in the yard, feeling sad.
It was his incompetence that caused him to fail to protect his family.
The handsome man was in a trance and looked very broken, which inexplicably made Jiang Wan feel that he was extremely beautiful.
"grown ups!"
The imperial guards who had gone to search the yard suddenly came out together, all with pale faces, and shook their heads at Deputy General Lu.
"There's nothing in the warehouse!"
"There's nothing in the kitchen either."
"Neither does the main courtyard!"
“…”
The royal guards were all stunned, because when the emperor summoned the prince into the palace, no news had been leaked.
They went straight to the palace. Even if they were transferring valuables, they shouldn't have been moving so fast!
Is this house search in vain?
Deputy General Lu, who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make some money, turned pale!
When everyone in the palace heard what the Imperial Guards said, they were all confused, and the next second they all looked at Song Jiuyuan.
Could it be that the prince had some foresight and hid the treasure in advance?
Deputy General Lu also thought so, and immediately looked at Song Jiuyuan, "Prince, oh no, you are not the prince now.
Song Jiuyuan, do you know that hiding property is a more serious crime? ! "
"I don't."
Song Jiuyuan had a bad feeling before he went to the palace, but he was hiding private property outside and had no chance inside the palace.
He himself was completely confused at the moment.
Deputy General Lu didn't believe it, and raised the sword in his hand to point it at Song Jiuyuan, but Jiang Wan kicked the sword away.
"The emperor has already punished the one who deserved it. It is not your turn to punish my husband!"
Song Jiuyuan is the benefactor of the original owner, so you should protect him as much as you can, just as a way of thanking the original owner.
Song Jiuchi, who had reacted, also protected his elder brother fiercely, glaring at Deputy General Lu with wolf-like eyes.
Lieutenant General Lu was so frightened by the glare that his whole body was covered with goosebumps. At this moment, a member of the Imperial Guard suddenly rushed in.
"Deputy General Lu, something bad has happened. The Imperial Palace and the Sixth Prince's Mansion have been robbed. The Emperor is calling you."
"Keep an eye on them! All the property in the palace must be confiscated. They are not allowed to take it away!"
Before leaving, Lieutenant General Lu issued a death order, so the female members of the family who were still wearing jewelry were forced to take it off.
Jiang Wan touched the wooden hairpin on her head. Fortunately, she had foresight and the hairpin could not be pulled out.
She breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and inexplicably felt a pair of eyes falling on her. When she lowered her eyes, she met Song Jiuyuan's puzzled eyes.
Jiang Wan was silent for a while. Actually, she had a lot of medicinal powder and golden wound medicine in her space, but it was not appropriate to take them out in front of the Imperial Guards.
