Chapter 48 Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law join forces to empty the scumbag father’s family assets!
Murong Chao was stunned on the spot and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
Said in shock and anger.
"Jiang, you... you dare to hit me?!"
“Bang!”
Nanny Lin slapped him again and corrected him expressionlessly, "Call her Madam Hou."
It must be said that Nanny Lin's grip was quite strong. In the blink of an eye, she had left deep finger marks on Murong Chao's cheeks, which made Jiang Wanning feel relieved.
That’s right, give Nanny Lin two extra chicken legs for dinner!
Murong Chao had never suffered such a great humiliation before. He was so angry that his beard was shaking, and he subconsciously wanted to argue with Jiang.
"You are absolutely lawless for assaulting an official appointed by the imperial court—"
However, before she could finish her sentence, she turned around and saw Nanny Lin raising her arm again: "Huh?!"
“…”
Murong Chao finally shrank his neck and swallowed the second half of the sentence.
He was beaten into obedience.
Jiang Wanning walked over and helped Murong Qing sit on the chair, then glanced at Murong Chao coldly and said sarcastically.
"Lord Murong failed to discipline his son, causing him to commit such a shameful act in the palace. It would have been fine if he hadn't stayed home to reflect on his actions, but how dare he have the nerve to come to the Marquis's residence and make such a scene? No wonder the top beam is crooked, and the bottom beam is even crooked!"
"you--"
Murong Chao was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but he remembered what Liu had told him before she left, saying that Jiang was crazy, barbaric and very difficult to deal with, so he resisted the urge to argue with her.
He turned to look at Murong Qing and accused her.
"Qingqing, how dare you say that what happened yesterday had nothing to do with you? If you hadn't had a grudge against Princess Rong'an, how could you have brought about this disaster? In the final analysis, it was you who harmed Heng'er!"
Hearing this, Jiang Wanning was almost amused by his train of thought.
In the original book, Murong Qing's scumbag father was very hypocritical. He used the method of suppressing her to put all the blame on her, and even said that he was doing it for her own good.
But Murong Qing was very filial and did not dare to contradict him even if she suffered a lot of injustice.
Even later when he sat on the throne, he still made Murong Chao the father-in-law of the emperor out of consideration for his upbringing, allowing him to enjoy all the glory and wealth.
Jiang Wanning didn't want to let him get away with it for nothing!
It would be best to make the relationship between father and daughter completely fall out before Murong Qing recognizes her identity as the eldest princess. By then, Murong Chao will regret it so much that he will break his thigh!
That would be so cool!
Thinking of this, Jiang Wanning didn't rush to ask Nanny Lin to get a broom and beat him out.
He just interrupted lightly.
"At this point, there's no point in saying more... Lord Murong, there's no need to beat around the bush. You've come to the Marquis' residence with such fanfare, surely not just to give Qingqing a beating. Tell me, what brings you to Qingqing?"
Murong Chao's expression changed slightly, and he felt a little guilty under Jiang's sharp gaze.
He thought he had concealed it well, but he didn't expect Jiang to see through his thoughts so soon. This shrew is not as stupid as before.
After a pause, Murong Chao put on the look of a "kind father" again, walked forward and stretched out his hand to check Murong Qing's injuries, with a hint of guilt on his face.
"Qingqing...did I hurt you just now?"
Murong Qing turned her face away, not letting him touch her cheek, but her eyes were a little red with grievance.
Murong Chao sighed, his tone becoming increasingly remorseful.
"Father was too harsh! But he was doing this for your own good... What domineering people are Princess Ruyang and Princess Rong'an? How could they let you go so easily if you offended them? If it weren't for your second brother who suffered and protected you this time, do you think you could still sit here safely?"
Seeing that he was pretending to be affectionate again, Jiang Wanning felt a little impatient.
"Stop acting and get to the point!"
This family is full of acting talents, each one is better than the other.
Qingqing is so unlucky. She is a good princess, but she is entangled by this family of vampires. If it weren’t for the purpose of tricking him into taking out the family’s wealth, I really want to stab him out with a trident!
"cough."
Murong Chao was interrupted by her and suddenly didn't know how to continue. He covered his mouth and coughed, then finally told her the purpose of his trip to the Marquis' Mansion.
"Qingqing, you shouldn't be asked to intervene in this matter, but Daddy really doesn't want you and Yan'er to have bad blood... Last night, the Crown Prince got drunk at the palace and had physical contact with Yan'er. If you can convince the Crown Prince to take Yan'er home as his equal wife, Daddy will be grateful to you forever!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanning stood up from his chair, and his reaction was even greater than Murong Qing's!
That bastard, no wonder the dog is acting so sneaky today!
She was the one who didn't keep a close eye on him and caused such a big mess for her. If she had known earlier, she should have taken a pair of scissors and cut off the source of trouble before leaving!
"Madame Lin, go call the prince!"
"Yes, ma'am..."
Knowing that the prince had gotten into big trouble, Nanny Lin immediately responded and hurried out.
But in a moment, Shen Yutang was brought over.
Along the way, Shen Yutang roughly learned what had happened from Nanny Lin. His handsome face turned pale. When he walked to the door, he looked up and saw Jiang Wanning sitting on a chair with an angry look on his face. He was a little afraid to go in.
Jiang Wanning said coldly.
"Come in quickly!"
Shen Yutang lowered his head, fearing that his mother would suddenly jump up and give him a beating, so he subconsciously stood a little further away from her.
Jiang Wanning had just comforted Murong Qing for a while, and seeing that her reaction was calmer than he had expected, he felt a lot more relieved.
Seeing Shen Yutang approaching, he asked directly.
"What's going on between you and Yan'er?"
Shen Yutang tried to explain.
"I, I was drunk... Yan'er suddenly bumped into me, and I thought I mistook her for Qing'er..."
Jiang Wanning sneered, "Are drunk men not allowed to do anything? Think carefully about whether you touched her or not?!"
Shen Yutang's face darkened. He didn't really want to admit that he was incompetent, but he really couldn't remember what happened last night.
"I don't know either……"
Hearing this, Murong Chao immediately curled his beard and interrupted, fearing that he would deny the debt.
"Who knows if you're truly drunk or just pretending? In any case, Yan'er's innocence has been ruined by the Crown Prince. The Marquis' Mansion must give Yan'er an explanation no matter what! Otherwise, even if I file a complaint before His Majesty, I will not let Yan'er swallow this grievance!"
When Yun injured her roots while trying to save him and became infertile, he reluctantly agreed to let Yun adopt Qingqing.
Although Qingqing didn't know the inside story, an adopted daughter is still an adopted daughter after all.
Not being his flesh and blood, he can never be on the same side with me.
Now that Yan'er's innocence has been lost, it will be difficult for her to marry into another wealthy family. Naturally, he has to make good plans for Yan'er and take control of the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion.
Seeing his eyes rolling around, he must be up to something bad. How could Jiang Wanning not know what he was planning?
pity.
The mantis stalks the cicada, and she is the oriole behind it.
With her help, Murong Chao's plans will be thwarted and he will even have to pay for it!
"Oh, let's talk it over nicely! Lord Murong, why are you so angry... Actually, it's not impossible to let Yan'er in."
Jiang Wanning immediately changed his attitude, saying that he didn't want to make the matter too awkward.
But it's still a bit difficult.
"But doing this would be too unfair to Qingqing. She'd suspect you, as her father, were biased towards Yan'er... Qingqing is pregnant now. If this hurts her and harms the fetus, I won't allow it!"
As he spoke, Jiang Wanning took Murong Qing's hand, squeezed her palm, and gave her a wink.
Murong Qing had been with her for a long time and quickly understood what she meant.
She immediately lowered her head and began to sob with her handkerchief in her hand.
Murong Chao couldn't help but coax upon seeing this.
"Qingqing, you've always been the most sensible one... Even though Daddy is a bit strict with you, he values you the most. Besides, you and Yan'er are both Daddy's daughters. We're both like flesh and blood, so how could Daddy not love you?"
Here it comes!
Jiang Wanning was waiting for this sentence.
The best way to deal with a hypocritical and greedy person is to kidnap him using his own words!
"You're so kind! When Qingqing married Yutang, she didn't even have a decent dowry! If Lord Murong really loves Qingqing, he should show his sincerity and make up for those ten or eight boxes of dowry.
Don’t you think this is the truth?”
