Chapter 412: Revealed
He Liansheng's expression was naturally not good, but Su Qianqian's smiling and mischievous look was exactly the same as that of the wife of Marquis Wuning, they were indeed siblings.
"Master Su, don't be too proud. It is still unknown whether it will be a blessing or a curse for you to rely on the Wuning Marquisate. Don't wait until that day comes and it will be too late to cry."
He Liansheng sneered and walked away.
"Thank you, Lord He, for your guidance. Have a pleasant journey, Lord He!" Su Qianqian shouted from behind.
Even though He Liansheng was calm, he was still shaken by Su Qianqian's shouting. He heard that it was this Lord Su who shouted "Rest in peace" when Lu Jing was exiled, but...
What bad luck! He Liansheng's face turned even darker.
It was the 18th day of the first lunar month. The Ministry of Justice, the Dali Temple and the Ministry of War were ordered to thoroughly investigate the case of the death of the former Marquis Wuning in northern Xinjiang. However, on this day, something happened to "Su Qian".
This day was also the day Xin Jilan returned home. Su Qianqian and Qin Hanzhang could not stay in the house because of government affairs, but fortunately, Xin Jilan had already told this matter a long time ago, so she didn't mind.
Su Qianqian has been planning her escape in the past two days. Once it is found out who killed Qin Hanzhang's father and brother, "Su Qian" will disappear due to an accident after two months, and the mission of this identity will end.
But Su Qianqian didn't expect to meet Zhou Jinxi when she returned home from the government office.
The carriage was moving as usual, when suddenly the driver's urgent sound of reining in the horses was heard outside, and Su Qianqian almost fell down due to inertia.
"Sir, the carriage of the Marquis of Jinyang's Mansion is blocking the front, and the person sitting in the carriage should be the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Jinyang's Mansion." Qin Shiliu reported outside the car window.
Su Qianqian was closing her eyes and thinking about Xin Jilan's return home. She didn't know what would happen to Mian Ge'er, but she didn't expect that he almost got into an accident. She reached out and grabbed Xue Ke, who also almost fell, with a slightly cold expression.
"Go and ask Miss Zhou why she stopped the carriage. If there is nothing wrong, we can go around it." Su Qianqian instructed Qin Shiliu.
Just as Su Qianqian sat back and waited for the driver to drive back home, she heard Zhou Jinxi's voice coming from outside the car window:
"Mr. Su, how are you?"
Su Qianqian rubbed her eyebrows helplessly and lifted the curtain, only to see Zhou Jinxi in a bright red cloak, standing outside the carriage like a lantern.
"Miss Zhou, do you have any advice for me?" Su Qianqian asked with a bow.
"Today is the day my sister-in-law comes home, so I have the opportunity to come out and meet you.
But what’s interesting is that I had people guarding outside the Wuning Marquis’ Mansion from early morning until now, but I haven’t seen the Marquis’ wife go out. I wonder if she is in the mansion now?
If my sister-in-law comes back and says that she did not see the wife of Marquis Wuning today, then where did the wife go on such an important day? ”
Zhou Jinxi stared at Su Qianqian with uncontrollable excitement in her eyes, making her slightly pale face flushed.
"Miss Zhou, I don't know where the Marquis's wife has gone. This has nothing to do with me. I wonder what this has to do with Miss Zhou?"
Su Qianqian asked with a smile.
"Of course there is a connection. If anyone suspects that the wife of Marquis Wuning disguised herself as a man and served as an official in the court..."
"Miss Zhou," Su Qianqian interrupted Zhou Jinxi, "I wonder what Miss Zhou wants to say? Why don't we find a secluded place to talk."
"Oh, Lord Su actually took the initiative to talk to me? It's really not easy. Well, I will talk to Lord Su reluctantly. Lord Su, I'm in the car?"
Zhou Jinxi said with a smile, looking even more excited.
"Please come in, Miss Zhou." Su Qianqian gestured with her hand, already thinking in her mind that perhaps her plan should be brought forward.
Zhou Jinxi got in the car, and Su Qianqian ordered them to go to Qixia Mountain, where there is not only a branch courtyard of the Wuning Marquis Mansion, but also a branch courtyard of the Jinyang Marquis Mansion. If anything really happens, both families can send back news as soon as possible.
"Lord Su, it seems that I was right." Zhou Jinxi looked at Su Qianqian proudly, with surging emotions in his eyes.
"Miss Zhou's guess is correct, so what?" Su Qianqian chuckled, "What I did didn't hurt Miss Zhou, so why would Miss Zhou be so hard on me?"
"You didn't hurt me. How dare you say you didn't hurt me?" Zhou Jinxi's voice was a little sharp.
"I wonder how I have hurt you, young lady? If that is the case, I would like to apologize to you, young lady. Please let us forget our grudges and not bear a grudge against me."
Su Qianqian bowed sincerely, hoping that Zhou Jinxi could let it go.
"Let's forget all grudges with a smile? Su Qian, you put it so lightly! Why should I, Zhou Jinxi, deserve to be teased by you two like this?" The resentment in Zhou Jinxi's eyes grew even stronger.
"I have loved my third brother since I was young and have been chasing after him for so many years, but she is actually engaged to Ji Bingwen!
When I heard the news, I didn't eat or drink and cried quietly. It was more than a month later that I dared to meet my third brother. I hid my love for him in my heart and treated him as just a brother.
But I didn't expect that you would use your scheming and conspiracy to disrupt the marriage between Ji Bingwen and my third brother.
When I heard about this, I felt so regretful. Why wasn't I as good as you at that time? What is face? I can do anything for my third brother! ”
Ji Bingwen closed her eyes in pain.
"My third brother gave up his dandy temper for the Qin family and was forced to marry you.
But I know that you two have not consummated your marriage, and I despise your meanness, so I never went to Wuning Marquis Mansion in those years. It was not because Wuning Marquis Mansion lost its power, but because I hated you. ”
Su Qianqian looked at Zhou Jinxi silently, listening to her talk about her psychological journey of pursuing love. She felt neither sympathy nor disgust, as it had nothing to do with her.
"After my third brother returned to the court, he didn't want to meet you, but his father and brothers were tied to the Qin family, and I... I was also thinking about my third brother, but it was a pity that he had no choice but to marry you.
But after meeting you, I actually didn't hate you. This is why I hated myself. But soon I stopped hating myself because I found Su Qian.
He is different from my third brother, but he is smarter and more interesting than him. I think I won’t be so unlucky this time. I want to seize this opportunity and let my third brother regret it after seeing me happy…”
There was fanatical excitement in Zhou Jinxi's eyes as he stared at Su Qianqian, as if her wish was about to come true.
"But...but you rejected me. Why? Third brother and I are not destined to be together. I can only accept it. But I didn't miss you. Why can't I be with you?
You said you have a fiancée at home, but I don’t believe it! Even if there is, I can cancel the engagement. I haven't given up yet. I didn't expect... I didn't expect that you are a fake! Su Qianqian, you guys are bullying me too much! ”
At this time, the carriage had already left the city. Zhou Jinxi's shrill voice echoed in the carriage. Su Qianqian frowned and scratched her ears.
"Miss Zhou, after listening to your story for half a day, would you like to listen to me?"
Su Qianqian patiently tried to persuade her. This girl was quite pitiful and her marriage was really bumpy.
