Chapter 305 Su Qian Must Die
"It was I who spoke nonsense and violated morals and brought disgrace to women. I hope Madam Hou will forgive me and not hold it against me. I will take my leave now and take the gift with me. I will take it with me..."
This Madam Mi was the younger sister of Mi from Dingyang Marquis's Mansion. She had come here with resentment towards Su Qian. Unexpectedly, she was caught by the Qin family just after she said a bad word to those two people.
Seeing what happened to those two, she immediately became timid. If her husband's family knew that she had stood up for her natal family, gone against the Wuning Marquis' Mansion, and caused trouble, her life would definitely not be easy.
The banquet continued, and those who had originally been jealous of others' success now stopped and began to enjoy the food and drinks honestly, not daring to act rashly again.
Prince Ping's inquiring gaze fell on Su Qianqian. He had been looking for Su Qian for a long time but had not found him. However, the wife of Marquis Wuning had a style of doing things that was quite similar to Su Qian's. However, how could a woman be compared with Su Qian?
After three rounds of drinks, two plays had already been changed on the stage. Madam Qin ordered warm rooms to be set up in various places in the garden. If one could not hold his liquor, he could go to the warm room to drink tea and eat fruit, or he could go to the greenhouse in the garden to admire the flowers.
This year's greenhouse was renovated according to Su Qianqian's method. Its area has doubled, and the flowers are blooming more luxuriantly and beautifully.
Su Xinxin and Yin Yueniang came over to talk to Su Qianqian.
Yue Niang's three sons looked very energetic after taking the medicine sent by Su Qianqian. The two younger ones were obviously fatter. Su Qianqian couldn't help but pinched their faces twice. Then, with their rosy little faces, they went to play with Qin You, protected by Baoyun.
Su Xinxin was a little worried: "Qianqian, why is He Yushi so against the Qin family..."
"There must be some reason behind this..." Su Qianqian didn't know what to say. She had only suspected it before, and now it has been further confirmed, but all this is not evidence.
As long as Censor He puts all the blame on his wife, the emperor will decide whether to delve into the grievances between the women in the harem depending on his mood. He will also weigh the pros and cons. The He family in Jiangnan is a big tree with deep roots. Is it worth shaking this big tree for the Qin family?
"Qianqian is very different from before. Sister, you don't have to worry about her. It's good enough that she doesn't bully others."
Yin Yueniang smiled and took Su Xinxin's arm. The two of them stood together as if they had been reborn. Their eyes were bright, their teeth were white, and their looks were lively. There was no trace of their previous timid and submissive appearance.
Su Xinxin understood that her sister must know something but was just not willing to say it out loud, so she felt relieved and took Yin Yueniang to talk to Xin Jilan. After all, she had no family from her mother's family and she didn't interact with others as a widow.
Su Qianqian turned around and looked for Su Runhe, wanting to ask about his recent situation. He had grown taller and looked more energetic, but she didn't know if he was living happily in the Su family, and whether his foolish father had done anything foolish again.
Seeing Su Runhe chatting with Qin Hanjue at this time, and there were several classmates from the Imperial College next to them, Su Qianqian thought about it and decided to wait. When she turned around, she saw Zhou Jinxi standing behind her, which scared her.
"Miss Zhou, why don't you go play with Yuzhuo? I think I see Miss Zhuang Si is here too..."
Su Qianqian wanted to send this young lady away, but she found that Qin Yuzhuo was gone, and Zhuang Yan didn't know where she went, so she could only smile and say:
"They may be going to enjoy the flowers. Why don't you go to the flower house too, Miss Zhou? If you don't know the way, I'll let Su Mu accompany you."
Zhou Jinxi's eyes fell on Su Qianqian's face, describing it inch by inch, which made Su Qianqian's hair stand on end. Is he going to have schizophrenia?
"Madam Su, why don't you see my cousin? It's really strange that my cousin is not here for such a big happy event in the Marquis' Mansion."
The voice of Zhou Jinxi's speech was also very different from usual, slow and mechanical, as if he was being controlled by someone.
"Su Qian had an errand today. He dared not disobey Master Zhuang's order, so he sent the gift and left early in the morning."
Su Qianqian just used the speech she had prepared long ago to deal with the problem.
"When did you go out?" Zhou Jinxi asked.
This sentence was a bit abrupt. A woman was asking about a man's whereabouts. The two had no relationship. It would be a laughing stock for any lady.
"Jinxi, what are you doing here? Come on, let's go find Yuzhuo and see where she went to play after leaving us behind."
The fifth lady of Xu Jinglie came over with a smile, bowed to Su Qianqian, and took Zhou Jinxi away. Zhou Jinxi looked back as he walked, looking at Su Qianqian's face quietly.
[Su Qian must die!] 】Su Qianqian said viciously in her heart.
King Jing, who was not far away, was startled and looked at Su Qianqian blankly. Did he have a grudge against himself?
The guests in the banquet hall dispersed.
The Wuning Marquis Mansion covers a very large area, and the garden is also very large, with warm rooms everywhere, as well as flower rooms and a plum grove for viewing plum blossoms.
However, the snow had not yet fallen in Xijing, and the plum blossoms in the plum forest had only formed buds. It would take several days for them to bloom, so the scenery was naturally less than impressive.
Su Qianqian wanted to look for Su Runhe again, but saw that he was being taken out of the banquet hall by several classmates, including Qin Hanjue.
Nothing serious will happen with Qin Hanjue around. That kid is quite cunning. It’s just that the elders of the Qin family have been trying their best to protect these children, and they have not experienced any setbacks yet.
Su Qianqian turned around to look at the two trouble-making princesses, but was blocked by a figure.
"Madam Wuning, may I ask where Master Su Qian is?"
Su Qianqian: Another one who pays attention to Su Qian.
[Su Qian must die!] 】Su Qianqian shouted even louder this time, and was so scared that she fell into the water while drinking water by the space swimming pool.
King Jing nodded calmly: Madam Su has finally gone crazy.
"He has to do some errands today... I wonder what Prince Ping wants to see him about?" Su Qianqian smiled gently and asked perfunctorily.
"He owes me 10,000 taels of silver, and now he needs silver everywhere in Xijing, so I would like to ask Mr. Su to return it as soon as possible."
Prince Ping said calmly, with his hands behind his back, looking directly at Su Qianqian, but his eyes were very cold.
"When did he owe you..." Su Qianqian blurted out, then she remembered her identity and quickly changed her expression to a gentle one:
"When did he owe the money to Prince Ping? He didn't even tell me when he came back home. He only reports good news but not bad news. When he comes back in the evening, I will definitely ask him and give Prince Ping an answer."
Su Qianqian couldn't help but grit her teeth. This was naked blackmail. They were indeed a nation of robbers who dared to rob anyone.
"Madam, can you remind Mr. Su that the money he borrowed a few days ago on Mount Weiming should be returned. If he doesn't, I'm afraid he will have to pay interest."
Prince Ping said this calmly, bowed and left, leaving Su Qianqian there in a daze: I haven't even met him in Weiming Mountain, so how could he owe me money?
"Madam Hou, it's bad, Miss Fifth kicked Princess Zhaoning into the water!"
A maid ran in panting to report, and Su Qianqian immediately became alert.
