Chapter 10 Four-legged Turtle
"Miss Jiang, what are you talking about? Xie died ten years ago." Lu Ze'an said in a deep voice with a dark face. So what if she is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Yingguo? Can she speak nonsense?
not to mention.
She was just a country bumpkin who came back from some unknown Taoist temple. The Duke of England's mansion might not take her, the real daughter, seriously.
"I have already given Lord Lu a chance. Since you don't want it, then you can do whatever you want." Jiang Yunxi left after she finished speaking. She came directly to Marquis Wenxin's mansion in the hope that the other party would change his ways, but it seemed that he was unwilling to do so.
Who would be willing to lose the splendor and wealth they are used to?
However, you will suffer the consequences if you do evil!
Lu Ze'an looked at the woman's cold and arrogant back, his face darkening. Even if she knew what happened ten years ago, so what?
Everything requires evidence. Xie Sirou died ten years ago and no one else was present at the time. He wanted to see how she would investigate.
Jiang Yunxi left Wenxinhou Mansion directly.
"I was so blind that I chose to marry him and even raised a child for this heartless man for six years." Xie Sirou was filled with hatred. She had always thought that she could not have children and was filled with guilt.
Finally, the Lu family proposed to adopt a newborn baby, and she agreed.
She had taken good care of him since he was a child and tried her best to give him the best, but she never expected that the child was born to Lu Ze'an and his concubine.
"This is a disaster destined for you. Even if this incident didn't happen, you would have suffered other tragic experiences." Jiang Yunxi said these heartbreaking words.
"Is my life destined to be so bad?" Xie Sirou frowned.
"Doing good deeds and accumulating virtues will accumulate blessings little by little. Although it cannot completely change your fate, it will at least be much better than it is now. As for those who do evil, there will always be retribution." Jiang Yunxi said firmly.
It’s not that the wicked don’t get retribution, it’s just that the time has not come yet.
Xie Sirou thought about when she was alive. She was the daughter of a wealthy businessman and had no worries about food and clothing, but she had no compassion. Every time she saw beggars, she just looked down on them for being dirty and never gave them any alms. It turned out that she had missed the opportunity to change her fate.
…
Jingzhao Yinfu.
Jiang Yunxi banged the drum loudly to protest his grievances, and soon the officials came out.
The loud and powerful drumbeats gradually attracted passers-by, and everyone stopped to watch.
"Who are you and why are you beating the drum?" the leading officer looked at Jiang Yunxi and asked.
"I want to see your master." Jiang Yunxi put down the drum in his hand.
"Follow me in." The officer said and turned to walk into the government office.
Jiang Yunxi straightened his back and followed.
"Who is this person in the hall, and what's your grievance?" Qu Xinwen sat up straight and looked at the woman in the middle of the hall.
"I want to sue Marquis Lu Ze'an of the Wenxin Marquisate. He killed his wife, Xie, ten years ago. Please redress Xie's grievances." Jiang Yunxi said every word loudly.
Qu Xinwen's eyes widened. "You want me to reexamine a case from ten years ago. Do you have new evidence?"
"Not at the moment." Jiang Yunxi said.
"Since you have no evidence, why should you ask me to re-examine a case from ten years ago?" Qu Xinwen laughed angrily, exuding a strong sense of displeasure.
"You mean that if someone dies in a commoner's family, we can't come to the Jingzhao Yinfu to report the case without evidence?" Jiang Yunxi asked him back.
Qu Xinwen choked and asked, "Did you just say that Marquis Wenxin killed his own wife?"
Things happening at the Marquis Wenxin’s Mansion.
He still has some impression.
"Marquis Wenxin was struggling with his wife by the water, causing her to fall into the water. He could have saved her, but he watched her drown and quietly left, erasing the footprints left by the two of them." Jiang Yunxi said seriously.
"How do you know so clearly?" Qu Xinwen frowned. He remembered that it was Mrs. Hou's family who came to report the case. He went to the lakeside to check it out in person, but there were no signs of fighting or pulling there.
In the end, the case was closed and it was found that Xie had fallen and drowned.
"Xie told me."
"Ms. Xie died ten years ago." Qu Xinwen said in a deep voice. The coroner had examined the body and confirmed that she had indeed drowned. There were no wounds on her body and no signs of poisoning.
Jiang Yunxi said calmly: "Her spirit told me."
Qu Xinwen's face turned pale and he said angrily, "This is the Jingzhao Yin Mansion, not a place for children's play. Please be serious."
"I am very serious. Your Excellency is in charge of the Jingzhao Yin Mansion. You should know that the people have the right to report cases to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion. The government office is responsible for handling them. Please investigate carefully. My name is Jiang Yunxi, and I am temporarily living in the Hanwang Mansion." Jiang Yunxi left after saying this.
Qu Xinwen widened his eyes.
Jiang Yunxi?
The mother of the twin boy and girl of His Royal Highness Prince Han!
Didn’t she just return to the capital?
Why do you want to report it to the Marquis Wenxin Mansion just after returning?
Are you so arrogant?
"Sir, do you want to check this?" asked the officer next to him.
"Investigate, otherwise what if she complains to King Han?" Qu Xinwen said angrily with a dark face. If the matter gets out of hand, he will have to investigate.
…
Prince Han's Mansion.
Jiang Yunxi dressed up the two children nicely. This was their first time to have a meal in the palace, and there must be other people besides the emperor.
When Zhan Beiyuan arrived at Fanghuayuan, he saw the mother and her two children in the pavilion.
Jiang Yunxi seemed to be teaching the two children how to write.
When he came closer, he saw that she was not writing, but teaching them how to draw talismans.
"Daddy, do you think my painting is good?" When Mianmian saw him coming, she picked up the talisman she had drawn and held it high up to show him.
"Not bad..." Zhan Beiyuan said this against his will. He felt that her painting looked like a four-legged turtle, but in order not to discourage the child, he could only praise her.
Mianmian blinked her big watery eyes and smiled cutely, "This is for you. It's a peace charm."
Zhan Beiyuan frowned and took it. "Thank you."
"Remember to wear it at all times to keep you safe." Mianmian said seriously.
"Okay." Zhan Beiyuan folded the talisman and put it into his sleeve pocket.
Jiang Yunxi's mouth twitched slightly. Seeing Zhan Beiyuan had accepted it, she didn't know what to say. "Is the prince here to take us to the palace?"
Zhan Beiyuan looked at her and said, "Besides father, there may be other people at dinner. Be careful with your words and don't let others gossip about you."
"I'll try my best to pay attention." Jiang Yunxi said after considering it.
Zhan Beiyuan: "..."
What does try your best mean?
The carriage soon arrived at the gate of the palace.
Zhan Beiyuan walked on the left, the two children in the middle, and Jiang Yunxi on the right.
The man is handsome, the woman is cool and beautiful, and the two little ones, one with a cool face and a cute smiling face, form a beautiful landscape when the four of them walk together, which makes people unable to help but watch.
Eunuch Qin had been waiting at the gate of Defu Palace. When he saw the family of four arriving, he welcomed them in with a smile on his face.
"Royal grandfather."
When Momo and Mianmian saw the emperor sitting at the table, they ran towards him.
The emperor looked at the two little kids with a face full of joy and asked them to sit on his left and right respectively.
"Your son greets father, Your Majesty." Zhan Beiyuan stepped forward and saluted.
"Your humble servant greets the Retired Emperor, Your Majesty." Jiang Yunxi saluted and then looked at the young man sitting next to the emperor. She could sense that he was from the same industry as her.
