Yes, Qin Wu is an orphan now because Qi Xiuzhe and Qin Yinnuan’s affair was exposed. Now if he wants to marry Qin Yinnuan, he has to find a reason to divorce Qin Wu first.
Otherwise, if Qin Wu did not make any mistakes, he would divorce her and give way to Qin Yinnuan, then Qi Xiuzhe's reputation as a wise gentleman would be completely ruined.
Of course, his reputation had been damaged because of Qin Yinnuan and Qi Xiuzhe's affair. Even if he knelt down and begged for forgiveness from Qin Wu in front of the people, or even let Qin Wu stab him, it could not change the fact that he and Qin Yinnuan had an affair.
At most, Qin Wu has a bigger reputation as a jealous and cruel woman.
There are too many dirty things happening in the noble mansions, and the people love to talk about them, and they despise the Qi family and Qi Xiuzhe from the bottom of their hearts.
The original voice scolding Qin Wu suddenly changed.
"The Crown Prince's Consort is lying!" Butler Qi immediately accused, "The Crown Prince's Consort, how can you be so vicious and shameless to throw dirty water on the Qi family!"
"Sir, the Nanny Lin who served our Madam is a witness! She saw it all clearly at the time. It was the Crown Prince's Consort who beat Madam, and her bodyguard Yan Shiyi killed the Qi family's guards..."
Butler Qi immediately asked Nanny Lin to testify.
Nanny Lin immediately knelt on the ground and accused Qin Wu of being inhumane and murdering her mother-in-law.
...
...
Qin Wu glanced at Nanny Lin and didn't take her seriously. She just argued with tears in her eyes, "Nanny Lin is my mother-in-law's person. She can say whatever she wants. Why does she only recognize me? I can't argue."
"But, they showed up at my Lichun Courtyard, killed my nanny, and set fire to my residence. How do you explain this?" Qin Wu asked loudly, seizing this loophole. "Even if I killed them, how do you explain my mother-in-law bringing so many guards to break into my yard and kill my nanny?"
"I clearly rushed back from the polo field. Anyone at the polo field can make the decision for me!"
"So is it me who intends to murder my mother-in-law, or is it my mother-in-law who wants to kill me? Anyone with a little bit of intelligence can figure it out..."
"Sir, I am not lying. It was Qin Wu who really wanted to harm the Marquis' wife and killed so many guards. It was Qin Wu. Qin Wu has a vicious heart. She is lying, she is lying..."
Qin Wu also pretended to cry and said, "Sir, I am innocent... The Qi family wants to kill me. Please help me, the prefect!"
Who doesn’t know how to cry out for injustice? But whoever cries louder doesn't necessarily have the right.
She was the one who killed the person, and she really wanted to burn Wang to death to avenge Nanny Li.
It’s a pity that Wang escaped.
But she will not admit it and let public opinion hammer her to death.
After all, it was the Wang family who wanted to deal with her first, so the Qi family must bear the consequences.
She would not be as stupid as she was in her previous life, foolishly explaining but no one would listen to her.
They still thought she was a liar and a vicious person.
Then she had to prove her lies and vicious heart to justify how much they thought of her.
Prefect, "..." How come Qin Wu became the victim and filed a counter-suit?
However, the Qi family's lawsuit is indeed full of doubts.
If Qin Wu wanted to burn Wang's family, there was no way Wang would appear in Qin Wu's yard with hundreds of guards. There must be some inside story.
The Marquis of Qi is not a small family, the prefect has a lot of pressure, and Qin Wu also has a lawsuit from the Qin family.
"Silence! I will definitely investigate this thoroughly!"
The prefect was just about to adjourn the court and send someone to investigate the situation first. He wanted to look into the matter that Qin Wu had mentioned, including the death of the nanny and the serious injuries of the servants around her.
And have Yan Shiyi summoned to the court as well.
As soon as the constable left, Qi Hou, Qi Xiuzhe, Qin Sujin and Qin Yinnuan entered the government office together.
"My Lord Marquis, Lord Qin, you are here. I was just about to ask someone to invite you over." The prefect came down from the court to greet them.
Qin Sujin's eyes fell on Qin Wu who was kneeling on the ground. A hint of viciousness flashed across his eyes, and his voice was cold. "Master Shen has started to try the case?"
"Yes, the Marquis has also sued Qin Wu. I am sending someone to verify what Qin Wu said."
Qin Sujin had just met Qi Xiuzhe and Qi Hou on the road, and also heard that Qin Wu killed all the guards of the Qi family after returning to the Qi family last night, and even dared to cruelly set fire to and kill Qi Xiuzhe's mother.
"What can be verified about what she said? She is full of lies, vicious and cruel. The truth is right in front of us."
Qin Sujin's tone was filled with disgust, and he said ruthlessly, "Such a vicious person should be thrown into prison immediately and be executed to serve as an example to others!"
Qin Sujin waited until Qin Wu became afraid, burst into tears, regretted and begged for mercy, repented of her vicious heart, and spent the rest of her life atonement for the sins of hurting Qin Su and beating Qin Yinnuan.
Because Qin Sumu pleaded for her, he spared her life, but she could not expect to live a good life anymore. She must pay the consequences for the evil things she had done throughout her life.
"Brother Qin..." Qi Xiuzhe lowered his voice, "Although Qin Wu committed a serious crime, chopping off her head will not help. Spare her life. I will destroy her internal strength. She will never dare to do such hurtful things again."
Qi Xiuzhe went to the palace to see the imperial preceptor today, but the imperial preceptor was busy praying for divination regarding the recent snowstorm and had no time to see him, so he could only come back for the time being.
As soon as he returned home, he heard that his father had sent someone to accuse Qin Wu of murdering his mother-in-law, so he had no choice but to rush here.
But his father stopped him, saying that Qin Wu's life or death was her own fault.
But he knew that the current Qin Wu was definitely not the same Qin Wu as before, and he couldn't let her die like this. In the end, his father was forced by him to come to the government office.
After pleading for mercy, Qi Xiuzhe said to Qin Wu in a stern voice, "Qin Wu, why don't you admit your mistakes and beg for mercy immediately? As long as you sincerely change your ways and promise not to do such vicious things again, I will intercede for you, Brother Qin, and my mother to spare your life."
Qin Wu stood up from the ground, looked up and gazed at Qi Xiuzhe with indifferent eyes.
This is so ridiculous, what did she do wrong? Why should she admit her mistake, beg for forgiveness, and turn over a new leaf?
From the beginning to the end, after she was reborn, she didn't attack them first, right?
She has been very kind to them!
After all, what happened in the previous life has not happened now, and they don’t know how evil they were to her in the previous life. She chose that as long as they don’t provoke her, she will not attack them first.
But it seemed that if she didn't take action against them, they would take her life sooner or later, just like they took Nanny Li's life.
Meeting Qin Wu's unyielding and cold gaze, Qi Xiuzhe felt extremely unfamiliar.
Yes, Qin Wu's eyes were always gentle and loving when she looked at him, never so cold.
What's more, he was doing this for her own good. The real Qin Wu would only be grateful to him and would never look at him with such eyes.
So he was even more certain that she had been possessed by another spirit!
After all, he had heard too many strange stories, especially in southern Xinjiang, where there were more bizarre things, so he believed in things like possession of other people's bodies.
Although he was angry with her, he couldn't really kill her. What if the original Qin Wu came back?
He scolded with a cold face, "Qin Wu, do you really want to be beheaded?"
He warned her again, asking her to be clear about her identity, "You must think clearly. The Yang family cannot protect you from the crimes you have committed!"
"I am your husband. For the sake of our past friendship, I don't mind you hitting me. As long as you admit your mistake and beg for mercy, everything can still be redeemed."
