Chapter 87: Too Smart
Three quarters of an hour later.
Qin Junyi and Xie Rongying rushed over, and Xie Ting also brought Wu Dawei and Wu Laoer to the court.
Old Madam Jiang, Jiang Jin, and Jiang Wangshi from the Earl of Yongqin's Mansion will be arriving soon.
Before Qin Junyi and Xie Rongying could get close to Jiang, Old Mrs. Jiang had already come to her side crying.
"Ling'er?" Old Mrs. Jiang lifted the white cloth with trembling hands, and looked at her silent daughter, her body immediately limp.
Jiang Wang immediately hugged Old Madam Jiang. She stared at Jiang's body in horror, the fear in her heart taking over her whole body: "Mother, take care of yourself."
Because Old Madam Jiang was too heavy, Mrs. Jiang Wang and Old Madam Jiang fell directly to the ground.
"Ling'er, my daughter!" Old Mrs. Jiang wailed loudly: "My daughter, it's me who deserves to die, it's me who deserves to die..."
In less than two months, first the youngest son died, and now the daughter also died.
Old Mrs. Jiang's energy and spirit disappeared in an instant. She held Jiang's stiff hand and cried uncontrollably.
"Thank you!" Jiang Jin learned some of the situation from the people in Kaifeng Prefecture on the way to Kaifeng Prefecture. He shouted angrily, "Your people took my sister's life. What are you going to do?!"
Xie Rongying walked in front of Xie Jing, blocking Jiang Jin's view, and said, "Uncle, since you already know the general cause of the matter, shouldn't the person who harmed my mother-in-law pay with his life? Why are you questioning my father in such a tone?"
"Did my father kill my mother-in-law?"
"Xie Rongying!" Qin Junyi shouted, "It's not your turn to speak here!"
Xie Jing pulled Xie Rongying over and looked at Qin Junyi coldly: "It's not Xie Rongying's turn to speak on the affairs of the Qin and Xie families. Then who else can speak?"
Qi Zhan saw that things were not going well and immediately stepped forward and said, "Young Marquis, Mr. Xie, Mr. Jiang, this tragedy is caused by the greed of Wanmiao Village. They wanted to get the property deeds and land deeds of Wanmiao Village from Madam Qin.
"Young Marquis, Lord Jiang, and Lord Xie certainly don't want this to happen. How can this matter not be blamed on the Xie family?" Qi Zhan has benefited a lot from the Xie family over the years, so he naturally knew what to do at this time.
"If the young marquis and my uncle are truly unhappy, now that day has dawned, why don't we go to the palace to meet His Majesty and let him make the final decision on this matter?" Xie Rongying said, tears streaming down her face. "My father handed Wanmiao Village over to my mother-in-law to manage so that she could have more money, but I didn't expect that good intentions would lead to bad consequences."
As she spoke, Xie Rongying knelt in front of Jiang and said with a choked voice, "Mother-in-law, if I had known this would happen, I should not have given you the house deeds and land deeds of Wanmiao Village. Mother-in-law, you died so unjustly. It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."
Shangguan Yao frowned slightly as she looked at Xie Rongying crying.
Seeing that Xie Rongying was crying so hard, Qin Junyi was slightly moved. She also walked forward and knelt beside Xie Rongying. When she looked at the scene in front of her, she cried out in pain: "Mother."
Jiang Wangshi looked at Xie Rongying's profile and felt a chill in her heart. She thought that Madam Xue was going to deal with Xie Rongying. After Madam Xue died, Duke Yingguo wanted to avenge Madam Xue, and the entire Duke Yingguo family was slaughtered.
Jiang also died in Wanmiao Village.
Jiang Wangshi was becoming more and more nervous. Suddenly, Xie Rongying glanced at her sideways. Jiang Wangshi screamed and fell to the ground.
After watching for a long time, Xie Ting stepped forward to help Xie Rongying up and said, "Eldest sister, I have already sent someone to report this matter to the palace. After all, your mother-in-law is the mistress of the Yongyi Marquis's residence. Now that the Yongyi Marquis is at the border, how can he just go through Kaifeng Mansion when something like this happened at home? The most important thing is, for the sake of the Xie family, we still have to go to see His Majesty."
Xie Rongying wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, choking with sobs.
Xie Jing said to Jiang Jin, "I will tell His Majesty everything about this matter. Sir Jiang, please come with me to the palace."
Jiang Jin naturally learned from Jiang Wangshi why Jiang appeared in Wanmiao Village. At that time, he also said that after the hole in Yongyi Marquis Mansion was filled, he could also get a share of Wanmiao Village.
Now that something like this has happened to the Jiang family, it is clearly those greedy dogs who have committed the crime. If they also blackmail the Xie family, he really wouldn't dare to do so in front of the government.
Therefore, Jiang Jin's tone softened a lot: "Thank you, sir. I was just angry because of my younger sister's sudden death. Don't take it to heart."
Xie Jing ignored Jiang Jin and said to Qi Zhan, "Master Qi, I need you to send someone to bring Madam Qin back to the Marquis' Mansion."
"Thank you, sir, don't worry. I know what to do." said Lord Qi.
Xie Jing then said to Xie Rongying, "Rongying, now that your mother-in-law has been in such trouble, it's time for you to take care of the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion. Take your mother-in-law back."
"Yes, father." Xie Rongying bowed.
Xie Jing then turned to Jiang Jin and Qin Junyi and said, "Master Jiang, Young Marquis, please come in. I will also send someone to invite the second and third branches of the Qin family to the palace."
After he finished speaking, Xie Jing walked out first. Jiang Jin walked to the side of Old Lady Jiang, whispered a few words to her, then pulled Qin Junyi away.
Chiang's death was neither complicated nor simple.
Xie Jing will report everything to the emperor.
People from the Earl of Yongqin's Mansion must be present, and people from the Marquis of Yongyi's Mansion who have a say must also be present.
The sky gradually brightened, and a few morning glows in the sky looked like fire.
The city of Bianjing, illuminated by the rosy glow of the sunset, began to prosper again.
The white cloth and lanterns hung in the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion made passers-by stop in front of the gate. Jiang's death also alarmed many people.
At this time, in the prison of Kaifeng Prefecture.
The torches shone as brightly as day. In front of the innermost cell, Xie Ting and his men surrounded it in three layers.
At this time, Wu Dawei was kneeling on the ground. He looked up at Xie Rongying who was sitting on the armchair. He knew that this was the eldest daughter of the Xie family. He had met her several times in Wanmiao Village before.
"Did the girl hand over Wanmiao Village to the Jiang family on purpose?" Wu Dawei couldn't figure out why the Xie family suddenly handed over Wanmiao Village to an outsider. This was his thought since he learned the news.
But now he seemed to understand.
Xie Rongying knew their intention from the beginning, which was to use the opportunity of handing Wanmiao Village over to an outsider to completely enrage them.
Xie Rongying not only wants to deal with the Jiang family, but also wants to use the Jiang family to deal with them.
"My father said you were the smartest person in Wanmiao Village. I didn't believe him at first, but after Manager Chu died, I started to believe him." Xie Rongying leaned back in her chair, staring at Wu Dawei with a faint smile. "You can make everyone in Wanmiao Village obey you and ignore their identities."
"When I realized you were someone difficult to deal with directly, I decided I had to use a foolproof method to deal with you."
As Xie Rongying spoke, her eyes grew colder: "If we want to intimidate those people in Wanmiao Village, we have to get rid of this thorn in our side, you."
"So the girl thought of Jiang, and it just so happened that the girl also wanted to deal with Jiang." Wu Dawei said calmly.
Xie Rongying sneered and didn't directly answer Wu Dawei's question. She said, "You are very smart, but unfortunately too smart. You are so smart that you forget that you are just a slave of my Xie family."
