Qin Xiang shook the whip in his hand and it fell heavily at her feet.
Qin Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
Staring at Qin Wu, Qin Xiang found that the adopted daughter in front of him was not brave, but seemed like a completely different person!
In the past, she was always timid and fearful in front of him, and didn't dare to speak loudly in front of him.
Now, not only did he dare to provoke him in front of him, he even dared to loudly analyze the pros and cons to him and threaten him.
Good, that’s very good, the wings are strong enough.
But she was right. To solve Qin Yinnuan's problem and save the Qin family's reputation was the most important thing. As for the punishment, it would be the same after this matter was resolved!
"Put a cloak on her and go out now to clarify things to Yin Nuan and clean up the mess you made!" Qin Lian didn't even give her time to apply medicine and gave the order directly.
Su Qingqing immediately untied her cloak, took off Qin Wu's cloak, and put it on her to cover the whip marks on her back.
"Qin Wu, why have you become so stubborn? It would be fine if you just said a few nice words, but you insisted on making father angry." She whispered and helped Qin Wu up from the ground.
...
...
Su Qingqing is Qin Sujin's wife.
Qin Wu didn't have much affection for her sister-in-law, nor did she have any hatred towards her.
As long as it doesn't involve Qin Sujin and her interests, she won't hurt her maliciously.
She was originally the eldest daughter-in-law chosen by Mrs. Qin, the Prime Minister.
The purpose is to hope that after Qin Wu gets married, the Qin family will have a mistress who can take charge of the household chores.
However, not long after Su Qingqing entered the palace, Prime Minister Qin's wife passed away.
Before the good news came, Prime Minister Qin's wife died, and Qin Sujin had some complaints about her.
Originally, Qin Wu was going to give her the key to the Qin family's household supplies, but in the end she didn't.
She would often complain to her, meaning that she should give her the key to the kitchen.
But at that time she was stubborn and only listened to Qin Sujin. She would definitely not give her the key until Qin Sujin agreed.
My relationship with her was not very good during that time.
After she married Qi Xiuzhe, Su Qingqing thought she would be able to take charge of the Qin family's finances.
But who knew that even after Qin Yinnuan was found, the key still did not fall into her hands, but was snatched away by Qin Yinnuan.
In addition, Qin Yinnuan became the new group favorite. She came up with a lot of special and novel things, which brought unexpected popularity to the Qin family's shop.
She still has no control over this household affairs.
In the Qin family, she had a rather miserable life.
Now that Qin Wu has fallen to this point, Su Qingqing feels a little calmer.
"You are really sharp-tongued and eloquent!" Qin Suhu saw that she was only whipped once and just two words made Qin Xiang stop punishing her. He sarcastically sarcastically said to her.
Qin Sumu also breathed a sigh of relief, at least Qin Wu escaped.
Qin Yinnuan's face showed no expression, but she felt sorry that Prime Minister Qin didn't give her two more whips. However, she still had to let Qin Wu quickly deal with the rumors about her outside.
Qi Xiuzhe, however, was very unhappy because she was plotting against his and Qin Yinnuan's reputations. He didn't feel sorry for her injuries at all and was even afraid that she would be unhappy and do something malicious.
He warned Qin Wu coldly, "You'd better not make trouble, otherwise Prime Minister Qin will kill you, and I can't save you!"
Qin Wu glanced at Qi Xiuzhe coldly, not bothering to answer him. She endured the pain in her back and walked towards the gate.
At this moment, a lot of onlookers gathered outside the gate of Prime Minister Qin's residence, talking about the matter.
"I heard that the Prime Minister wants to personally explain to everyone the incident in which Miss Qin's reputation has been damaged..."
"Do I need to explain? I saw with my own eyes that the prince of Qihou Mansion carried Miss Qin on a horse back to the Qin family. The prince of Qihou Mansion is really lucky. He got both the adopted daughter and the real daughter of the Qin family."
"This Qin Yinnuan is the real daughter of the Qin family. She is not going to fall into the trap of becoming a concubine of Prince Qi, right?"
"Perhaps Prince Qi divorced the fake daughter. After all, she is a jealous woman with a vicious heart. Her reputation is so bad now that it is not impossible for him to divorce her and marry Miss Qin."
"How could this fake daughter Qin Wu be willing to leave Prince Qi? Everyone knows how much she loves Prince Qi. She even lost her face for him.
Fearing that Prince Qi would be snatched away by another woman, she sent away all the maids around Prince Qi and only kept servants around him.
And I heard that a maid who served Prince Qi was beaten to death by her, just a few days ago.
If she is divorced by Prince Qi, with her ungrateful and vicious character, it will probably cause unrest to the Qin and Qi families..."
“Although this real daughter is not decent and often eats and chats with men, she is at least a man of talent. She solved the locust plague problem, and the emperor even made her a princess.
But this fake one has been in the Qin family for so long, and she has only learned the methods of vicious jealousy. A fake daughter is just fake, and no matter what, she can never be as powerful as the real one. ”
"No matter how powerful this real daughter is, she is still shameless. She was chatting and laughing with men, isn't this just trying to seduce men? She is the daughter of the prime minister, so outstanding, why doesn't she marry into the royal family? She hooked up with the man of her own half sister and degraded herself to become a concubine."
The people looked down upon Qin Wu.
However, because of the incident between Qin Yinnuan and Qi Xiuzhe, many people mocked and ridiculed Qin Yinnuan for her self-degradation.
The people gathered at the door were not just there to join in the fun, they also came to watch the Qin family make fun of them, and everyone had different opinions.
It was not until Qin Wu and others came out of the Qin family's gate that the voices of discussion among the people present became quieter.
This is the Qin family's territory. What if I get beaten if I laugh at them and say nasty things in front of them?
Prime Minister Qin was still wearing his official uniform. His square face was resolute and majestic. He put his hands behind his back, and his official authority was overwhelming.
He looked at the crowd outside the door and said, "Everyone, Qin's daughter has been attacked by rumors these days. I didn't clarify it with everyone at the beginning, which made the rumors get worse and worse."
"It is Qin's fault as a father that his daughter's reputation has been damaged."
"Today, Qin wants to clarify the cause and process of this incident with you all, to clear your daughter's name, and also to have you all be witnesses, hoping that the rumors will stop here."
Just based on his words, people did not dare to gossip about him.
"It's Qin who didn't teach his daughter well." Qin Xiang's eyes fell on Qin Wu sternly, "Qin Wu, why don't you explain the matter clearly right away!"
Without waiting for Qin Wu to say anything, Qi Xiuzhe grabbed Qin Wu's hand and took two steps forward.
Qi Xiuzhe bowed with both hands, with the demeanor of a gentleman, and spoke sincerely, "Fellow villagers, thank you for taking some time to come and listen to our explanation."
"The rumors about me and sister Yin Nuan have been circulating for a while now. They are all misunderstandings."
"My Qi family and the Qin family have always been on good terms, and we have frequent exchanges. I have a better relationship with sister Yin Nuan, but everyone knows that Qin Wu and I grew up together as childhood sweethearts."
"Qin Wu does have a temper and is jealous, but it's also because she loves me too much. She hurt Yin Nuan and brought shame to the Qin family. It's really because I, as her husband, didn't manage her well and made everyone laugh at me."
"A few days ago, Yin Nuan and Qin Wu were kidnapped by bandits, and I saved them both."
"I took Qin Wu back to the Qi family on horseback because she was about to give birth and riding a horse was faster. Sister Yin Nuan then took a carriage to the Qin family to see Qin Wu."
"Rumors have been spreading for the past few days, and I haven't had time to deal with them. It's also because Qin Wu gave birth to a child."
Qi Xiuzhe was afraid that others would not believe his lies, so he used Qin Wu's childbirth as an excuse.
He didn't consider Qin Wu's feelings at all.
"Qin Wu, stop targeting Yin Nuan. Tell me what's going on."
