Reborn Concubine, Be Respectful First

Chapter 159 1 Step by Step

Mrs. Fang, Mrs. He and Mrs. Liu, as experienced people, naturally understood the other party's intentions.

Since Chu Wei said it in front of so many people, and even brought a knife into the mistress's yard, he was just showing everyone his attitude.

Two days later, Chu Yu and Su Chengmin were thrown into the Jingzhao prefectural prison by the Embroidered Uniform Guards one after another.

Su Chengyi and Chu Wei cannot move for the time being, but the idle Su Chengmin can.

As the youngest son of the Li family, Su Chengmin had been spoiled since childhood and had never suffered such hardship.

On the second day in prison, she fell ill. Li then realized that it was not that Chu Wei did not see her, but that he had no intention of doing anything to her and was directly targeting her youngest son.

Su Chengmin was arrested from a brothel, and he had nowhere to turn to for justice.

In the end, it was Su Chong who went to the Prince's Mansion and asked the Prince for help to get Su Chengmin out.

As for Chu Yu, he only stayed for two days before leaving. After all, he just had some conflict with someone in the restaurant, and the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion paid some money and the matter was settled.

"You said that Chu Wei had someone bring back this ten thousand taels of silver?" Su Xinqing looked at the silver on the table, full of doubts.

I don’t know what the other person is doing.

"Yes, ma'am, the master said that this is what you deserve." Shan Qing replied respectfully.

After hearing Shanqing's report, Su Xinqing still had any doubts, so she asked Banyue to put them away.

"Madam, there is one more thing. The master asked me to tell you that the second son of Yongchang Mansion has passed away. He should send an invitation. The master asked me to remind you that it is inconvenient to go there. The Earl of Yongchang Mansion is now in chaos. Without the mistress of the house, it may be dangerous, so don't go there."

In fact, Yongqing put it simply.

"Miss, I went out to inquire. Some Second Young Master said that his private parts were rotten, and the whole room was so smelly that the maids and old women didn't want to go in. It turned out that the concubine who gave birth to the eldest son was taking care of him. After the Second Young Master died that night, she disappeared, along with the banknotes and land deeds in the mansion. Alas, he didn't want a good daughter-in-law, but insisted on a cousin who was not presentable. Now, he's packing up and leaving. Miss, Butler Li has gone to pay condolences on behalf of you and the master. He said that the concubine's family is also making a fuss in Yongchang Mansion, and the Second Young Master's mourning hall has been smashed." Banyue was thankful that her young lady didn't go there.

"Are Aunt Wei's family still in the capital? Have they not left the city?"

"Yes, young lady, housekeeper Li came back and said that the Wei family wanted to sue the He family in the government office. Their daughter is missing, and they want the He family to accompany their daughter. How could they bear to leave the city?" Banyue said with disdain on her face. She just wanted compensation from the He family: "Madam Yuan of Yongchang Prefecture said that when Wei Wanshu left, she took away most of the assets of their He family. She hasn't found the Wei family yet, but the Wei family came to her door in advance. When housekeeper Li returned home, the two families were taken back to the government office by the people of Jingzhao Prefecture. The streets are also very lively today."

Listening to Banyue's words, Su Xinqing fell into deep thought.

It wasn't that she cared much about Aunt Wei's affairs. As early as the rumor that He Yuanming was inhumane came out, Su Xinqing had vaguely guessed that this was just the beginning of the prince's test.

As expected, no one in the Earl of Yongchang's Mansion stood up to seek justice for He Yuanming.

He Yuanming was not far from disappearing. After all, she had seen the prince's trick of encroaching on her power step by step in her previous life.

It seemed that at that time,

However, there was no time for the people in the capital to reveal the cause and effect.

The eldest son of Duke Zhang's mansion also suddenly left the capital, and it was said that he brought his concubine from the backyard with him in his carriage.

Only Yuan Jingzhen was left alone in the Duke's Mansion.

On this day, Song Hejing finally found time and went to the back garden of the Chu Mansion with Jiang Miaojin to enjoy the flowers and cool off.

Then I heard Banyue coming back hurriedly from outside.

I brought with me four-color cakes, poria cakes, steamed cakes and summer candies bought from Tianxianglou.

After arranging the dishes for the masters, she had an extra piece of Poria cocos cake in her hand, and Ban Yue smiled with her eyes narrowed.

It took me a long time to remember what I had just heard and seen: "I didn't see the carriage of Prince Zhang. I only saw the Princess and her men chasing after him. In the end, she was taken back by the guards of Duke Zhang's mansion. I heard from people around me that the Princess seemed to have made a move on the person that Prince Zhang loved the most. She took advantage of Prince Zhang's absence and sold her to a human trafficker. Prince Zhang and his men snatched her back. This made Prince Zhang very angry, so he took his men and left the capital."

Even though Song Hejing was very brave, she had never expected that Master Zhang was actually such a romantic man.

"Master Zhang is truly a man of character! Miaojin, cousin, don't you think so?" Song Hejing couldn't help but look up to this dandy young man.

Instead of reading the good books of sages, she follows the example of some people and keeps male lovers in her house.

However, now it seems that he is a man of temperament.

"Ah..." Song Hejing was thinking about what Master Zhang's male favorite looked like, and how he could seduce Master Zhang to give up everything in the capital and leave with his people.

Thinking about it, he saw that it was Su Xinqing who hit his head. However, facing the vicious look of his cousin, he still confessed the truth.

"You want to know what it looks like?"

Song Hejing nodded in confusion.

Half a minute later, Song Hejing saw a picture of a beauty and a young man in plain clothes. However, the face looked familiar no matter how he looked at it.

"Isn't this a portrait of Concubine Su?" Jiang Miaojin said uncertainly.

She had also seen Concubine Su from afar a few times. With her status, she still had some distance to go before she could get in touch with the girls from the dukes' and earls' houses, especially the legitimate daughters.

The people in front of me are all my father’s friends because of his business.

"Yes, isn't this Su Xinya's portrait?" Song Hejing finally realized what was wrong.

"Yes and no. It's the portrait of that young man. However, his face looks very similar to Su Xinya's." Su Xinqing looked at the two of them with a smile.

Seeing that the two of them didn't react, he took the pastries from the eight-immortals table and started eating first.

It was not until a long while later that the two little girls suddenly realized what was going on.

Jiang Miaojin even buried her face in her handkerchief, leaving only two red ears.

Just now, Song Hejing was still acting like a man of Zhang Shizi's temperament, but in the blink of an eye, he started to curse.

With the departure of Prince Zhang from Duke Zhang’s Mansion, the turmoil in the capital should have been a trivial matter.

However, some people with ulterior motives took it as a sharp sword piercing Duke Zhang's heart. For several days in a row, there was a melee between several forces in the court.

The final result was that the emperor spat out blood in anger.

The Jiang family discovered a mineral vein far away from the capital, but they concealed the discovery and were brought to the court.

Su Xinqing sat in the pavilion, looking at the blooming hibiscus flowers and the fiery pomegranate flowers in the garden, and she felt the exuberance of life.

The surface of the pond was shimmering, and occasionally a few dragonflies flew low over the water, gently touching the surface and causing ripples.

The reflections in the water rippled with the waves, as if the whole world became gentle and peaceful at this moment.

"You mean, the young masters of the Wu'an Marquis' Mansion and the Zhang Guogong Mansion had a fight in Baihua Tower? Could it be because of the girl in Baihua Tower?" Su Xinqing has been staying in the back house to take care of her pregnancy these days.

I've rarely been out of the door, so I'm not very sensitive to what's happening outside, so I asked again.
