Chapter 525 Confession
Qin Huiyin hugged Song Ruize's neck and let Song Ruize carry her out of the secret room.
When passing by the door, he saw a bitter look on Zhuge Congfeng's handsome face.
"Little girl, you are so useless that you actually fell into the hands of such a pervert."
"I was indeed useless. I had the opportunity to hold him hostage, but I didn't dare to kill anyone, so I missed the chance."
If she had been a little more ruthless just now, she would have had a chance of winning the bet with Jiang Yunzhou on who had a harder heart.
She didn't believe it. Was Jiang Yunzhou really not afraid of death? She held him hostage. She had the upper hand, but she played her cards badly.
"Do you still remember the terms we agreed on before?" Zhuge Congfeng asked.
"I will withdraw my people immediately, and you can handle the situation here." Song Ruize said calmly.
"readily."
Qin Huiyin looked around. She had just heard a noisy sound and vaguely guessed that this was a brothel.
Jiang Yunzhou was a well-known playboy, and it was normal for him to go in and out of places like this, so no one suspected that he had built a secret room here.
Song Ruize took Qin Huiyin away and withdrew the troops from the Military Department.
There were many people in black around Zhuge Congfeng. He was among the group of people in black and his eyes stayed on her.
"Who are they?" Qin Huiyin asked.
"They are an organization that is against the imperial court." Song Ruize said, "More than a decade ago, the power of the aristocratic families was above that of the imperial family. The royal family was unwilling to become puppets and vigorously suppressed the aristocratic families. Many aristocratic families were executed. They are the descendants of those aristocratic families who survived. I sent the military and dark web people to search the whole city, but I couldn't find you, so I thought of them."
"Last time they tried to assassinate the princess, the whole city was looking for them. You helped them, so you know their origins?"
"Bai Qiu, it should be Puyang Qiubai who did not hide his identity and told me all their details. He also wanted to recruit me to join him and let me overthrow the court. I refused, but promised to keep their secret. This incident reminded me of them. They are descendants of aristocratic families. In recent years, they have been building their own organizations to fight against the court. They are the people who know the various forces in the capital best, so I asked them for help. First, it is regarded as repaying my help to them in the past. Second, the power of Anping Marquis' Mansion is extraordinary. If they clear Anping Marquis' Mansion, they will also clear some obstacles and seize supplies."
“Sounds like a win-win.”
"You still have the mood to listen to these gossips. Do you know that your mother is going crazy?"
"I didn't want to either..." Qin Huiyin hugged Song Ruize's neck, "Is my mother okay? I didn't do anything stupid, did I?"
"It's a long story, let's go back first."
Song Ruize took Qin Huiyin back to Tang's house. On the way back, Song Ruize applied ointment on her wrists and ankles.
Because of Jiang Yunzhou's perverted imprisonment, her limbs were left with very obvious marks of chains.
"How are you going to deal with Jiang Yunzhou?"
"I can't send him to the government, because that would affect your reputation. If you can't deal with him openly, then you have to do something ruthless in secret."
"I always feel that what he said has a hidden meaning. I'd better ask mom first!"
The carriage arrived at Tang's house and went straight into the backyard of Tang's house.
Song Ruize got off the carriage first, and then took Qin Huiyin in.
"Yinyin..."
Li Taohua rushed over and hugged her tightly.
"My girl, you really make me anxious to death."
"I'm fine, it's all a false alarm, don't worry, mom." Qin Huiyin said.
"Song Ruize, where did you find Yinyin? When you found her, was she wronged? Did that person hurt her?"
Song Ruize ignored Qin Huiyin's look and said truthfully: "When I arrived, he wanted to blaspheme Yinyin."
"Beast, what a beast..." Li Taohua was furious. "I've already said that you are brother and sister, but he still has such dirty thoughts about you, he is worse than a beast. Even though I knew he had gone astray when I left, I still had a little fantasy in my heart, hoping that he could turn over a new leaf and walk the right path, but I didn't expect... like father, like son."
"Mom, he asked me to come back and ask you. From what he said, you two have a special relationship. What is your relationship?"
"Let's find a place to sit and talk. You've been frightened, so you need to take good care of yourself and not work yourself into any more trouble." Li Taohua said, "I won't hide anything from you. I'll tell you everything about me."
Qin Huiyin had been locked up for two days and had drunk a lot of alcohol with Jiang Yunzhou. She felt unwell and said she wanted to take a shower and change clothes.
With the help of Zhilan and Sujin, she finished bathing quickly. As for her hair, Zhilan and Sujin wiped it for her, which did not affect her listening to what Li Taohua was going to say next.
Tang Dafu and Tang Yixiao also arrived.
Tang Yixiao took Qin Huiyin's pulse and confirmed that she was not injured, so he just fed her a sobering pill.
Qin Huiyin had a good alcohol tolerance and was not drunk at all. This was why she dared to drink with Jiang Yunzhou. She originally wanted to get Jiang Yunzhou drunk and escape.
However, she overlooked one thing. Jiang Yunzhou often hangs out in places of entertainment, so it is impossible that he can drink a lot. She did not pay attention to this just now. She was so focused on getting him drunk so that she could escape that she overlooked such an important detail.
"Jiang Yunzhou is my son." Li Taohua bombarded the audience with her opening statement.
Qin Huiyin had just taken the teacup handed to her by Song Ruize, but when she heard these words, her hand loosened and the teacup fell down.
Song Ruize caught it in time.
The tea was spilled, but the cup was still intact.
"So, Jiang Yunzhou is also my brother?"
Li Taohua frowned: "You don't have to recognize him, he doesn't deserve it."
"Mom, what's going on?" Qin Huiyin asked.
"I was once the concubine of the Earl of Anping, and I gave birth to Jiang Yunzhou with him. At that time, Madam Chen had no children of her own, so she took him to raise as her legitimate son. He was very cute when he was a child, until he became the legitimate son and was taken away by the mistress. He became more and more distant from me, and later he even despised me for being a concubine. When the Earl of Anping left the capital for work, Madam Chen finally couldn't tolerate me and accused me of adultery. On a rainy day, she beat me with fifty sticks, until my body was covered in blood and flesh, and then threw me into a mass grave."
"They thought I was dead, but I was saved. Although I survived, I didn't want to live the same life as before. The person who saved me happened to be a doctor with superb medical skills. He saved me and healed my festering wounds without leaving any scars. I never went back to Anping Marquis's Mansion. I just thought I was dead and that I didn't have that son. Then came my encounter with Yinyin's father."
