Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

The emperor's question was very meaningful.

"In reply to the emperor, yesterday a businessman suddenly came to the gate of the mansion and asked to see my mother. My wife directly refused and had him driven away..."

Qin Chen continued.

"Father has always taught us to be loyal to the emperor and love the people, and never take a penny from the people. Although I don't know what this man does, he suddenly came to give gifts, and I felt something was wrong. But before I could send someone to investigate, he was killed. It was only when someone from the prefectural government informed me of this that I learned about it... Please, His Majesty, issue an order to investigate this matter and clear my name and that of the Marquis of Qin’s mansion..."

When the emperor heard what Qin Chen said, his brows were originally frowned, but now there was a hint of a smile on his face.

"In that case, I will leave this matter to you to cooperate with the prefect of the capital and the Ministry of Justice to investigate... If the truth of the matter cannot be found, I will hold you all accountable..."

"I accept the decree."

"The minister obeys the order."

The capital's prefect, Lord Song, and several other officials including the Minister of Justice also knelt down.

Many ministers had something to say, but when they heard that the emperor had already issued an edict, they swallowed their words.

Qin Chen's face was calm, but he knew in his heart that the emperor was becoming suspicious, or was taking this opportunity to suppress the Qin Hou Mansion.

Prince Yin, Prince Ze and others all looked at Qin Chen, and saw that Qin Chen respectfully stepped aside without any panic or fear. They also felt that this matter should have nothing to do with Qin Chen. However, they didn't know who wanted to deal with Qin Chen.

But at a time like this, they naturally wouldn't stand up.

If Qin Chen cannot find out the truth, they can help to plead for him and ask their father to punish Qin Chen less severely. In this way, Qin Chen will definitely be grateful for their plea.

Today, Prince Heng's Mansion was decorated with lights and colors. Prince Heng went to the Liu Mansion in person to welcome Liu Ruyan into the mansion.

Although the standard of taking a concubine is not as high as that of marrying a principal wife, it is only slightly worse than marrying a principal wife.

Lord Liu did not go to court today, and there were dozens of tables of guests coming to the Liu Mansion for the banquet. This was the first time in the past ten years that the Liu Mansion was so lively.

"Congratulations, Master Liu."

"Congratulations, Master Liu."

"Master Liu is really something we envy now."

"Lord Liu is now a favorite of the Emperor, and we are far behind him."

Lord Liu saw the guests off with a smile.

Back in the main hall, Madam Liu came to greet them.

"Master, you have worked hard today."

Lord Liu looked at Madam Liu and said with a smile.

"Thank you for your hard work, ma'am."

Madam Liu felt warm in her heart when she heard what Lord Liu said.

"I'm not worried about Yan'er, but about Yu'er, Young Master Sheng..." Madam Liu thought of her eldest daughter, who she held in her hands, marrying such a man. Although this daughter was not her biological daughter, she had raised her for so many years and had always treated her as her own. In her heart, she was her biological daughter. However, there seemed to be something between her and her biological daughter. She was usually very good to Yan'er, but they had not been together for so many years, and Yan'er was a little distant from her and the people in the mansion.

"She brought this upon herself. We have done our best for her now... If she doesn't reflect on herself and doesn't appease her mother-in-law at her husband's house, she will have more hard times in the future..."

He had originally planned to marry off his eldest daughter first, but holding two wedding banquets in a row would not be good for his reputation, so he later decided to marry off both daughters on the same day.
