When Qin Laosan received the news and rushed back to the capital, he met a familiar-looking person on the road.
However, at that time, I was only thinking about getting back home, so I didn't stop at all.
Unexpectedly, I passed by Jiang Shengsheng like this.
"Third Master, this is bad! The old master and the others have been captured!"
When Qin Lao San arrived at the Qin Mansion, the gate had already been sealed.
He slipped in through the back door.
The people in Qin's mansion had been arrested or had fled, and only a servant who had gone out to deliver a letter was still hiding in the mansion.
"Where's Madam Sheng?"
Qin Laosan walked around the yard and didn't see a single ghost.
The servant slapped his thighs and said, "Madam Sheng was thrown into the woodshed by the master's order the day before. Not long after the master was arrested, the imperial court issued an imperial decree, and they were all arrested, including the old master."
"Madam Sheng...I'm afraid she was also captured."
Qin Laosan originally wanted to come back to take a look. If his eldest brother really did something wrong, he would quietly take the money and run away with Jiang Shengsheng!
But unexpectedly, even Jiang Shengsheng was arrested.
Without thinking too much, Qin Lao San waved his sleeves and prepared to walk out, "Where were they taken?"
The servant was terrified and grabbed the man, "Third Master, you can't go. This time, the eldest master has committed a capital crime! I've heard that everyone else in the Qin Mansion will be sentenced to exile this time!"
Qin Lao San paused, thinking of the woman who always said he was the most powerful, and gritted his teeth, "Madam Sheng can't do without me, I have to go with her. The journey of exile is too hard, I have to... I have to take care of her."
After saying that, he turned around and looked at the already messy backyard of the Qin Mansion and said, "Let's go."

Imperial study.
Jiang Li took the "big gift" that Jiang Shengsheng left for her and went straight to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."
Seeing Jiang Li's seriousness, the emperor also calmed down and asked, "What's the matter?"
Presenting the rag with both hands, Jiang Li said, "What I want to talk about is the case of the Third Prince."
When the emperor mentioned the rebellious son who poisoned his brother and then committed suicide, his face immediately darkened.
"Isn't that case already closed? Why bring it up again?"
Jiang Li shook his head. "The case of the Third Prince poisoning has indeed been closed, but I have obtained an important piece of evidence today that proves that the Third Prince did not commit suicide, but..."
"Poisoned to death!"
"What?"
The emperor sat up suddenly when he heard this.
It is true that Gu Yanheng poisoned the prince, but how to convict him is the emperor's job.
But if someone else attacks him, it would be the serious crime of murdering the royal heir!
The emperor glanced at the eunuch, who hurriedly walked up to Jiang Li and took the rag from her hand.
"Your Majesty, this item was torn from a piece of clothing. Written on it is the complete story of how the Third Prince was poisoned."
The emperor took the rag and looked at it, and was stunned.
This is……
"Could this be..."
Seeing the certainty in Jiang Li's eyes, the emperor shook his hand and the rag fell onto the table.
"Well, well done to you, Qin Chuan! Your son actually...actually dared to murder the prince!"
It was clearly written on the rag that where to get the poison and bring it back to the Heavenly Prison. Qin Ji had asked the secret guard to copy it and stamp it, and then send it to the place where he met Wu Youjin. Unexpectedly, the secret guard hid the cloth directly in Qin Ji's study after copying it.
So, when Jiang Shengsheng sneaked into the study to collect evidence of Qin Chuan and his son's crimes, she took it away directly.
"Someone come!"
The emperor was really furious this time, and when he heard that the boy from the Qin family had not been arrested and imprisoned yet, he immediately changed the Qin family's verdict.
"Qin Chuan, who was corrupt and abused his power, was originally sentenced to death but could not escape punishment. However, we have now discovered that Qin Ji, the eldest son of the Qin family, murdered the Third Prince. The evidence is irrefutable. The sentence of exile for the entire Qin family has been changed to immediate execution. The execution will take place at the Meridian Gate in three days!"
Qin Chuan finally pacified the Qin family members in the Heavenly Prison. After all, it was just exile. He had so many connections in the capital, and he would make a comeback one day.
And Qin Ji is still outside and will send them what they need, so everyone should not worry.
Unexpectedly, not long after, the imperial edict changed again.
The moment the imperial edict was read, Jiang Li, who followed over, saw that everyone in the prison was dizzy or crazy.
Several ladies from the Qin family's side branches started to scratch people.
"Stop, everyone stop!"
After being shocked by the sudden news, Old Master Qin saw that the Qin family members were starting to fight among themselves. He shouted and fainted.
"Brother, where is Shengsheng?"
Qin Laosan still kept questioning Qin Chuan without giving up.
But the other party sneered, "Jiang Shengsheng? If I knew where she was, I would kill her!"
A jailer said yesterday that Jiang Shengsheng was the one who reported them!
Qin Laosan was pushed to the ground by Qin Chuan and hit his head against the wall.
Before he fainted, he was still muttering, "Shengsheng, Shengsheng..."
"princess."
Seeing Jiang Li coming out of the sky prison, Bai Zhi hurried to greet him.
"I heard that Miss Wanqiu and Miss Yinjia have both woken up."
Jiang Li, who was originally filled with sorrow because of Qin Ji's escape, rarely smiled when she heard the news.
"Let's go and take a look."
"Sister Yin Jia!"
The Yin Mansion was closer, and Yin Jia was alone at home, so Jiang Li went to the Yin Mansion first.
But I didn’t expect that as soon as I entered, I saw an acquaintance.
"Fourth brother? Why are you here?"
When Jiang Li pushed the door open, Jiang Maoshan was holding a glass of water and handing it to Yin Jia who was leaning on the bed.
When Jiang Maoshan heard Jiang Li's voice, his hand trembled and the cup fell to the ground and shattered.
"Sister...sister..."
Jiang Maoshan blushed, scratched his head, and stammered for a long time: "I... I heard that Miss Yin was sick, so I came to see... see her."
Jiang Li raised her eyebrows and asked, "Come and take a look?"
"Fourth brother, what can I say about you? You don't know how to be polite, but you know how to visit people. You say you know how to be polite, but Sister Yin Jia is home alone now, and you came here by yourself and stayed in Sister Yin's room. If this gets out, wouldn't it smear Sister Yin Jia's reputation?!"
"Sister...I...I..."
Jiang Maoshan became anxious and his face suddenly turned even redder.
He was originally the most talented among the four brothers, but for the first time he hesitated and didn't know where to put his hands.
“Puff…”
Yin Jia could tell that Jiang Li was joking, and looking at Jiang Maoshan's expression, she couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Princess, please stop teasing the Fourth Young Master Jiang."
After saying that, he waved at Jiang Li and whispered a few words in her ear.
"What?!"
Jiang Li was shocked and looked at Yin Jia in disbelief. Seeing her nod affirmatively, she looked at her fourth brother.
No way, no way, is her fourth brother so brave?
