The two brothers Ma Yiyan and Ma Yihui came to the Ministry of Punishment, and Shang Jiawen cried even more aggrieved, insisting that he did not know.

Because of lack of evidence, Xu Yihuan let Shang Jiawen leave, and put Qi Yue in prison in the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

On that day, Wen Xu came to Wu Muhou's mansion to meet Shang Jiayan.

The two talked privately for nearly an hour.After Wen Xu left, Shang Jiayan heard the news from the Ministry of Punishment. After thinking about it, he went to Duke Cheng's mansion.

Seeing that he took Huai'an and Wu Guang and Wu Liang out, Gu's mother was still a little worried, so she found a fast-footed boy and rushed to the Ministry of Punishment to inform Yang Jiming.

When Yang Jiming received the news, Shang Jiashu was also there.The two immediately took a few people to Duke Cheng's mansion.

On the other side, after Shang Jiayan arrived at Duke Cheng's mansion, he pointedly mentioned Wen Xu's name, and the two brothers Ma Yiyan and Ma Yihui invited him to the side hall.

Shang Jiayan said: "To tell you the truth, Wen Xu went to see me today."

Ma Yihui hurriedly asked, "What did he tell you?"

Ma Yi Yanqing snorted, and said in a slightly flattering tone: "Mrs. Yang, my third brother is speaking in a hurry, please don't take offense. I don't know what advice I can give you if I come here today."

"It doesn't matter." Shang Jiayan said lightly, "I came here today for the matter of the son's seal."

Ma Yihui was about to ask aloud immediately, but Ma Yiyan stopped him with his eyes.

Ma Yiyan's eyes also showed eagerness, the two brothers were eager to get the seal.

Ma Yiyan said: "Mrs. Young Master Yang, please speak frankly."

Shang Jiayan said calmly: "I wonder if the two of you have heard that an aunt in Wumuhou's mansion died suddenly, and her death condition was exactly the same as Cheng Guogong's."

Ma Yiyan nodded and said, "I heard a little."

Shang Jiayan continued: "I suspect that the murderer is very likely to be the same person, or the two murderers are related."

Ma Yiyan said: "What does Mrs. Yang want us to do?"

"It's a joy to talk to a smart person." Shang Jiayan slightly hooked the corners of his lips, "I want to find out the real culprit."

"Young Madam Yang suspects that the person who killed my father was from our Duke's Mansion? Could it be my sister-in-law?" Ma Yiyan asked knowingly.

Shang Jiayan said with a half-smile: "If the two young masters can't find the murderer for the Duke, even if they get the prince's seal, they may not be useful."

Ma Yiyan and Ma Yihui looked at each other, then nodded.

Not long after, Shang Jiawen was invited over.

When he saw Shang Jiayan sitting in the upper seat and being treated politely by Ma Yiyan and Ma Yihui, he felt jealous.

Ma Yiyan said: "Sister-in-law, Mrs. Yang is here, and I want to tell you something."

Shang Jiawen nodded slightly to Ma Yiyan, then looked at Shang Jiayan, and said indifferently: "What do you want to say to me?"

Shang Jiayan said coldly: "Third brother, I won't beat around the bush with you. You used Qiyue to frame me, how will this be settled?"

Shang Jiawen was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that he would tear up his face in front of others, "I don't understand what the second brother is saying."

Shang Jiayan sneered and said, "Whether you understand it or not, you won't be able to make it through today."

Just as Shang Jiawen understands Shang Jiayan, Shang Jiayan also understands Shang Jiawen.Shang Jiayan showed contempt on purpose, provoking Shang Jiawen from expression to words.

Shang Jiawen said: "This is Cheng Guogong's mansion, the second young master and the third young master are here, it is not a place where the second brother can do whatever he wants."

Shang Jiayan said with a smile: "For the seal of the son, the two young masters know what to do."

The servants of the Duke's Mansion closed the hall door with serious expressions on their faces.

Feeling the dangerous atmosphere, Shang Jiawen looked at the sneer on Shang Jiayan's face, burning with fear and anger.

Why? !

Why did Shang Jiayan take all the benefits?Just because he came out of his wife's belly?

When he was a child, Shang Jiayan was fed pregnancy medicine, and his aunt sent him away, and forced him to take pregnancy medicine as well.When he grew up, he gave Shang Jiayan a sterilization drug, and his aunt married him to the dead man as a concubine without saying a word.

Think about what kind of life Shang Jiayan lived, shouting and embracing, her husband cherishes her.But what about him?To be a concubine for the dead, to be defiled by her father-in-law!

Ma Yi said coldly: "Little sister-in-law, you should admit it, you can still save face."

Shang Jiawen sneered, then laughed loudly, letting out tears, and said hoarsely: "Decent? Am I still decent? Ever since I married a dead man as a concubine, and since that old beast defiled me, I It’s no longer decent.”

Shang Jiayan couldn't help being stunned, and looked at Ma Yiyan and Ma Yihui angrily.

Shang Jiawen approached Shang Jiayan, "You don't need to show such an expression, isn't it exactly what you expected for me to end up like this?"

"I never took my anger out on you for what your aunt did. You are to blame for everything now."

Shang Jiawen laughed, and suddenly showed a sinister smile, saying: "Second brother, you and I have been dependent on each other since childhood. If you are unlucky, I will suffer along with you. When you are happy, I can also spend a few days in peace Days. I know I can't live, and I don't want to live long ago, why don't you go to hell with me, second brother."

Before the words fell, Shang Jiawen took out a pack of medicinal powder from his arms and sprinkled it out.

Wu Guang kicked Shang Jiawen away with a quick kick.

Huai An quickly used his body to block Shang Jiayan.Wu Liang covered his mouth and nose with his hands and stood beside them.

Ma Yiyan and Ma Yihui retreated to Shang Jiayan's side instinctively.

Shang Jiawen's medicine powder was also scattered as he was kicked away, floating in the air.

Not long after, the servants who inhaled the powder went mad one after another, bleeding to death from their seven orifices.Shang Jiawen also inhaled a large amount of medicinal powder, and finally died under his own poison.

The hall door was kicked open from the outside, Shang Jiashu grabbed Yang Jiming in time, and the two walked quickly to Shang Jiayan, covering their mouths and noses together.

Yang Jiming looked at the situation in the room, looked at Shang Jiayan nervously, and led him slowly out of the side hall.The others also covered their mouths and noses and slowly moved out.

Doctor Xu, who happened to come to express condolences, took their pulse and confirmed that they were all fine.

Then, under the guidance of Imperial Physician Xu, Shang Jiashu directed the yamen servants who came together to clean up the scene, and moved out the bodies of Shang Jiawen and his servants.

Shang Jiawen's maid told Shang Jiashu everything in detail.

Duke Cheng defiled Shang Jiawen first, and Shang Jiawen poisoned him to death.After Cheng Guogong's death, Shang Jiawen used the fourth wife of Wu Muhou's mansion to poison Aunt Zhao and frame Shang Jiayan.

As early as when Yang Zhengpeng was arrested, Shang Jiawen and his fourth wife Luo Shi got in touch with each other in order to deal with Yang Jiming and Shang Jiayan together.

It is true that Shang Jiashu doesn't like Shang Jiawen, but what he has to do now is to protect Shang Jiawen's reputation after something like this happened, which is also to protect the Shang family.

The two brothers of the Ma family also want to protect the reputation of Cheng Guogong's mansion, and naturally they also want to cover up Cheng Guogong's defilement of his daughter-in-law. The two families have reached an agreement on this, at least on the surface, not to pursue each other.

Yang Jiming hugged Shang Jiayan tightly, worried and angry in his heart, and said sullenly: "If you put yourself in danger again, I will, I will..."

Shang Jiayan patted his dog's head, smiled slightly and said, "What about you?"

"That's right, I'll fine you not to get out of bed for three days."

Shang Jiayan burst out laughing.

"You're still laughing!" Yang Jiming looked at him dissatisfied, "Do you know how scared I was just now, in case something happens to you, what do you ask me to do?"

Shang Jiayan buried her head in his neck and rubbed it, "Okay, I promise you, I won't do such a dangerous thing again."

"Ahem! So many people are watching."

Hearing Shang Jiashu's voice, Shang Jiayan slowly withdrew from Yang Jiming's arms, but still cuddled beside him.

Shang Jiayan knew that Yang Jiming was really scared, but he was too.

When Shang Jiawen took out the medicine powder bag, it was really a close call, extremely dangerous.If Wu Guang was a step slower, he would have been separated from Yang Jiming at this moment.

Yang Jiming said: "Brother, I want to send Jing Shuo back home first."

Shang Jiashu glanced at Shang Jiayan, nodded slightly, and said, "Go back, I'll take care of the rest."

"That's hard work, brother."

Yang Jiming was not polite to Shang Jiashu either, and was about to leave with Shang Jiayan.

Ma Yiyan and Ma Yihui stopped them, "Mrs. Yang, you haven't told our brother about my elder brother's seal yet."

Yang Jiming pulled Shang Jiayan back, "my wife was frightened today, we will talk about other things later."

Shang Jiayan said to them: "Wen Xu said that he remembered that the son had told him that the seal was in Wufu Bank."

Ma Yiyan and Ma Yihui looked at each other in surprise, and hurried to Wufu Bank in person.

However, what awaited them was not a large amount of money, but an IOU from Cheng Guogong's mansion.

Shang Jiashu sighed, dealt with Cheng Guogong's mansion well, and sent someone back to Dali Temple to report to Dali Temple Secretary, while he himself went to the Ministry of Punishment.

After Shang Jingcheng heard the whole story, he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.He took the initiative to take over the affairs of Wu Muhou's mansion and went to see Yang Zhengyi in person.

After Yang Zhengyi learned the truth of the matter, he also felt complicated.Although he was saddened by Aunt Zhao's death, compared to the honor and disgrace of the family, the doting and distress for the concubine's room became insignificant again.

After deliberation, they let the matter call it a day.

However, when Xu Yihuan met Sheng Sheng, he said everything in detail.

The emperor sighed and said, "Ma Yuchuan deserves to die."

The next day, the emperor found an excuse and seized the title of Duke Cheng.

In Wu Muhou's mansion, Yang Zhengyi told the old lady about the whole thing.

Yang Zhengyi said: "Mother, our Marquis Wumu Mansion almost became the second nobleman to be stripped of his title."

After a while, the old matriarch was afraid, and said: "I never thought that the fourth family would dare to act so boldly. Don't worry, I know how to do it. I will not let anyone lose the title of Marquis Wumu, at least as long as I am still alive." time, no!"

Yang Zhengyi didn't have to say the rest.

Soon, the old matriarch sent someone to forcibly send the fourth lady to the Zhuangzi outside the city, and raised the sixth lady, Yang Wanling, under her knees.
