Chapter 306: Sitting at Home

Now Miss Jiang San is unharmed and has returned in one piece, but her son is in trouble.

Of course, she could hear the hint from the Imperial Concubine, not only because she is smart, but also because she knows what kind of character her son is.

Yihonglou is the property of the Duke Cheng Mansion, and the Duke Cheng Mansion is also their in-laws. Sanlang loves beauty, and he must be the first to try new beauties.

The Imperial Concubine just said that the emperor also went there, and the newly bought girl in the building is the concubine of a corrupt official, and she also hides the list of corrupt officials.

What could go wrong?

Before the girls of the Pei family could react, Zhen had already glared at them fiercely and left in a hurry.

I have to talk to my parents-in-law and get Sanlang out as soon as possible.

The damned Pei Zhongshu, he wanted to plot against the Jiang family but he didn't wait until he was sure before he acted. His plot was so easily crushed by the imperial concubine, and his son was harmed.

If anything happens to Sanlang, she will not let the Pei family go even if it costs her life.

Jiang Xinyue provoked lightly, looked at the few stupid Pei family members who were standing there in a daze, turned around and left with a fake smile.

The crowd dispersed, Su Ruyue gently tugged at her mother's sleeve, and whispered: "Mom, I saw..."

"Shh!"

Madam Su held her hand: "Let's talk about it when we get back."

The relationship between their Su family and the Jiang family is not ordinary. If someone hears their daughter talking about the Jiang family, it will not be good for their family's reputation.

A well-educated girl will not gossip about others behind their backs.

Madam Su led Su Ruyue back to her residence, and saw a handsome young man running out in a hurry.

"Erlang, stop!"

When the young man's slender figure came in front of her, Madam Su frowned even more tightly: "Why are you so impatient? Mother sent you to study at the Imperial College, have you forgotten even the basic etiquette?"

Su Erlang stopped, but his eyes were anxious: "Mother, I just came from the teacher, and I heard that something happened to the Jiang family of the Honglu Temple Shaoqing, the second Miss Jiang..."

"It's just a misunderstanding."

Madam Su held Su Erlang's arm: "It's getting late, Miss Jiang must have gone to bed. Although you two are engaged, there are many people in the palace. You can't go to her in the middle of the night. Even if you are worried, you can talk about it tomorrow!"

Su Erlang thought about it and it was not a good idea to rush over so rashly. Since his mother said it was just a misunderstanding, it was not a big deal.

He raised his hands and bowed to Madam Su: "Then mother and sister should go to bed early. I will go back to my room first."

Living in the same palace, they can know any movement.

Although the Qu family has not been an official in the court for many years, their reputation is still there. With the marriage of the Duke of Chengguo, the Qu family will be invited to come every year for summer vacation.

At this time, the old lady of the Qu family came out in person, and hurriedly ran out with Zhen and her son Qu Pengfei.

"Pa!"

Pei Zhongshu slapped Pei Sinian in the face: "Useless thing, you want to take revenge on others, but you can't control their weak points. You can't even take care of a little girl, and you let them turn the tables and switch her. The old lady is sitting at home, and you have made a strong enemy for me outside. You are really my good sons!"

If the Qu family was easy to mess with, how could the previous emperor get a golden medal of immunity from death?

For so many years, the Qu family has been doing evil in Zhenzhou, and the emperor has turned a blind eye. In recent years, corrupt officials have emerged in Zhenzhou. It is not only the fault of the Pei family. The most important thing is that the officials in Guiyang, Zhenzhou, have secretly surrendered to the Qu family and do not listen to the arrangements at all.

So when he was in Guiyang, he let Qin Ruofang out and ran to the emperor to complain.

In this way, those officials who embezzled money from the Qu family in the name of the Pei family can be eliminated, and Qin Ruofang can be arranged to be with Jiang Xinyue, killing two birds with one stone.

Jiang Yankun thought that he could rest assured by arranging the governor of Zhenzhou and the magistrate of Guiyang County as his confidants. It was too naive. Soon, he would be instigated by the Qu family.

And behind the Qu family were Duke Cheng and Concubine De.

Aren't those rebellious villains targeting the fact that Concubine De in the palace has the third prince?

The emperor's most beloved prince has the greatest possibility of succession.

But this prodigal son of his has offended the Qu family.

"Dad!"

Pei Sinian covered his face, "My son just wanted to teach that bitch Jiang Xinyue a lesson. Originally, the person my son wanted to capture was her dancer wife, but that woman never left the palace. My son had no choice but to work on her uncle's family."

Sending an unmarried official lady to such a place, and even saying that he just wanted to teach Jiang Xinyue a lesson.

It is obvious that he wants to kill her and cut off the lives of all the girls in the Jiang family. It can't be said that he is not vicious.

But this is his own son, and he is not as skilled as others. Pei Zhongshu hates Jiang Xinyue with gnashing teeth.

"Dad, what should we do now?"

Let's not talk about how difficult it is to deal with the old man in the Qu family. Just the Duke of Cheng has always been nicknamed the cold-faced venomous snake. Many people in the capital who offended the Duke of Cheng died in the end. He was scared.

Pei Zhongshu glared at him and said, "Wait obediently. You should also learn from that dancer. Don't go out during this period of time, otherwise you won't know how you died when the time comes."

After that, he put on his official robe and took a few people out of the garden. No matter what, today's grudge with the Qu family cannot be made.

It's better to join hands to deal with the Jiang family, otherwise sooner or later, the imperial concubine will ascend to the throne, and neither of their families will have a good end.

"Snap!"

The rhythmic sound of whips came from the secret cell, and Qu Tianzhong was beaten so badly that he was covered in wounds.

Officials from the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice jointly tried the case: "Qu Tianzhong, where did you hide the account book? Why don't you confess quickly?"

Qu Tianzhong was a drunkard who didn't even know what his family was doing, so how could he know what the account book was?

He looked up with his breath dying, and in his haze he seemed to see his grandfather and father. He cried, "I don't know, I don't know anything. When I passed away, the woman was already dead. What account book, what book, I don't know what you are talking about?"

"How dare you make excuses?"

"We followed you in. The woman was locked in an iron cage and taken to the backyard by the people in the brothel. It was after you entered that she screamed for a while and ran out, saying that someone was dead. You were the only one in the room. Who else could it be if not you who killed her?"

Qu Tianzhong spat out a mouthful of blood. He didn't know how to explain.

He had the habit of taking a bath before sleeping with a woman. The madam of Yihonglou knew it. So after he entered the room, he ignored the woman lying on the bed, but took a bath behind the screen. The bath water was prepared by the madam a long time ago.

As a result, when he took a nice bath and went to see the beauty on the bed, he saw only the corpse of a woman with her eyes open. He was so scared that he collapsed at that time.
