Marchioness Brothel - Chapter 90

Concubine An made up her mind to make the funeral of the Yanping County King lively and decent. As early as seven days ago, the sacrificial shed was erected from the courtyard to the main entrance, filled with monks sitting inside, singing and singing constantly.

On the day of the official funeral, the servants carefully nailed a seven-and-a-half-inch-long longevity nail into the coffin. Sixteen strong people lifted the coffin together and set off on the road tremblingly. Behind them was a coffin carried by six people. White streamers fluttered along the way, paper money flew, and behind the coffin there were countless high-quality paper boats, paper carts, and paper houses. Because the scene was so vast, it attracted hundreds of people to watch.

“Ah, whose funeral is this?”

“Prince An’s Mansion!”

“How about two coffins?”

“You don’t know, Yanping Junwang and his wife are here!”

“It’s weird that there are such wonders in the world!”

“What? You haven’t heard of it, this is simply–” People’s voices were very low, and their whispers spread like a plague in the crowd.

Qin Mansion

Mrs. Qin crouched on the couch, with a strip of cloth tied around her head, and groaned. The close-fitting maid, Jun’er, was gently beating her leg. Madam Qin was suddenly awakened and suddenly sat up from her sleep: “Sweet!”

Jun Er quickly lowered her head: “Madam, you have a nightmare!”

As soon as Mrs. Qin touched her face, she felt cold in her tentacles: “When is it already?”

Jun’er hesitated and said: “When I first arrived in Mao.”

Just now Madam Qin was about to lie down again, Jun’er glanced at her face, and said with a deep heart: “Poor young lady…I was going to have a funeral today, and Madam could not see her for the last time–”

Today is the funeral for sweet children? ! Yes, she actually forgot such a big thing! Mrs. Qin suddenly sat up from the beauty couch, her eyes widened and said, “You are serious?”

Jun’er said: “Yes, ma’am, this is indeed a funeral in Prince An’s Mansion today, and the eldest master also went there, and gave a generous condolence.”

Madam Qin gritted her teeth, beat her chest, and cried, “This shameless son, could it be him? How could his sister fall to this point, and even buried the man and that fool together, **** stuff!”

Jun’er sighed, and if there was a seemingly non-existent reminder: “In this joint burial, the lady is afraid that she will still be entangled in the ground by the idiot, and she will not be peaceful. If she delays her reincarnation, sigh… !”

Madam Qin was startled suddenly, a fire rushed from her chest to her head, and she gritted her teeth instantly: “No, I don’t agree, I definitely don’t agree!” After that, she jumped straight to the bed and put on shoes.

Jun’er hurriedly persuaded him, and said bitterly, “Madam, don’t get up and lie down and rest!”

Madam Qin’s entire chin lost a circle, she pushed Jun’er away, and said sharply: “Get away, get away!”

“It won’t help you do this, you can’t get out at all!” Jun’er’s tears pattered, “There are four mothers watching outside…”

Mrs. Qin lifted the scissors in the basket and smiled coldly: “I don’t believe anyone who dares to stand in front of me! I have to give Tian’er a funeral today!”

The street was full of excitement. Suddenly, I saw a middle-aged woman in mourning clothes rushed out and threw herself on Qin Tian’er’s coffin, wailing: “Daughter, you died so miserably, I’m sorry. , Making you fall to this point!”

Qin Si was taken aback, and immediately found that the man was his mother, and his heart suddenly shook. Since knowing that he had killed Qin Tian’er, Madam Qin hated him too, cursing endlessly day and night. He was crazy, so he had to send someone to lock his mother in the room, but how did she escape? He gritted his teeth and said sternly: “Hurry up and stop Madam!”

The two servants rushed forward and clasped Madam Qin’s arms. Madam Qin took out the scissors in her arms and squeezed in front of her throat, shouting: “Who dares to touch me!”

Qin Si was completely stunned. Mrs. Qin was a merchant woman. When she was young, she had a vigorous temperament, and no one would care about any splashes, let alone the consequences. Because Tian’er had a difficult delivery when she was born, Mrs. Qin always pampered her especially, so she spoiled this sister lawlessly. The most terrible thing is that Mrs. Qin is not a knowledgeable woman, once she turns her face, she will not recognize her. Qin Si quickly lifted his robe, knelt down in front of her, begging with all his face: “Mother, you are in a bad spirit, why don’t you rest at home!”

Madam Qin pointed to his nose and angrily rebuked: “You shameless and shameless thing is not enough to kill your biological sister. Can you kill my old lady together?”

In the old days, Madam Qin would definitely consider the consequences of saying this, but Qin Si imprisoned her for a few days, which had already made her nervous and mad.

The crowd couldn’t help in an uproar. Is the news circulating in Beijing true? Is Qin Si the murderer who killed his biological sister?

Qin Si flashed a trace of coldness in his heart, but his face was full of undisguised sadness: “Mother, I know that you have become crazy because of the death of your sister. It’s a trouble! Otherwise, the princess and sister’s spirit in the sky won’t be able to live!”

Ah, it turned out to be a lunatic, no wonder it was so noisy-people were talking quietly.

Qin Si winked and asked the two servants to go up and hold Mrs. Qin. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qin pierced one of them with a pair of scissors, and the blood flowed immediately. She didn’t know where the strength came from, so she rushed forward and slapped the coffin. Another person rushed forward to catch her, but he couldn’t beat the strength of a crazy old woman, so she staggered. It also aroused the anger of people around.

I don’t know who was deliberately yelling in the crowd: “Have you seen, there is such a son in the world, how dare you tell someone to kill his mother?!”

The crowd that had been in doubt immediately boiled, and countless fingers poked Qin Si’s spine and pointed. Those eyes full of accusations made people frightened. Seeing something wrong, Qin Si immediately got up and backed up a few steps, and disappeared among the funeral crowd in the Ancestral House.

The housekeeper of Prince An’s mansion was furious and ordered: “Don’t send people to maintain order? Don’t let people block the funeral!” The guards of Prince An’s Mansion immediately drew a sword and blocked the road, shutting all the angry crowd and the funeral team Isolated. Regardless of whether Mrs. Qin patted the coffin and howled, her expression shocked everyone. While she was crying, she pointed at Qin Si who was hiding in the crowd, and cursed heartbreakingly. Xu Shi had been crying for a long time, her voice was not high, but it spread to everyone’s ears clearly with the wind.

Jiang Xiaolou stood in the elegant room on the second floor, quietly watching the scene before him, unconsciously smiling.

Such a scene obviously made her look very relaxed and happy. Li Xuening tilted her head slightly, the hosta in her hair gleamed moistly in the sun, and said softly, “Could it be that you let Mrs. Qin out? But-how do you know that the relationship between their mother and child has deteriorated? Such a situation?”

There was a slight smile on Jiang Xiaolou’s lips: “I tried every means to tell Madam Qin how Qin Si killed Qin Tian’er, and how did Qin Si carry her body to the Prince An’s house to please and behave. Mrs. Qin has always loved her daughter. It is one thing to know that she is dead, and it is another thing to accept her, especially some people say that she is vivid, as if she is on the scene…”

The Qin family’s affection seems hard to overcome, but every family member is actually selfish, insidious and cunning. When there is no conflict of interest, they reach a united front with each other and agree on the outside. But when there is a rift between them, the ending is quite different. Jiang Xiaolou’s skill in boiling frogs in warm water, bit by bit, found flaws in the seemingly unbreakable relationship, poured warm poison into it, and gradually caused Qin Si’s world to completely collapse.

Li Xuening only sighed when she heard the words: “Qin Thought must regret it and regret treating you like that.”

Jiang Xiaolou raised his face slightly, and the sun shone on her white face, almost a transparent luster: “The desire is hard to settle, everything is too late.”

Jiang Xiaolou split his soul into two halves, half hidden in the dark **** with no light, waiting quietly, seizing all the opportunities that could be seized to hit the opponent; the other half turned into a smiling beauty, showing the most beautiful smile, Playing the most gentle role.

Qin Si finally sent Mrs. Qin back to the mansion, and couldn’t help being angry: “Mother, do you know how much face Qin Mansion has lost because of the trouble today?”

Madam Qin sneered and raised her face to question him: “Shame? Your sister has lost her life. As her biological mother, can’t I just scream for her?”

Qin Si’s gloomy gaze slowly glided across her face, and said coldly: “Mother, sister is your own flesh and blood, am I not? If you went out like this today, one completely offended Prince An’s Mansion; Outsiders know about it! You and I have worked so hard to get to where I am now. How many people are staring behind your back, won’t you think about it for me?”

Mrs. Qin never thought of the present situation. The Qin Si in front of her still only thought of herself. She couldn’t help but burst into tears and burst into tears: “I am willing to think about you too, but even Tianer, you can do it. Your heart is too cruel. !”

Qin Si’s original handsome face turned a little bit colder: “I know my mother is very sad for Tianer’s death, so why don’t you think I really can do it? You taught me to climb up at all costs. , Even the beloved can send her to someone else’s bed, let alone my sister! Everything is taught me by you, but now I blame me for what happened? Don’t laugh!”

Madam Qin looked at him in disbelief, her eyes full of shock. She suddenly realized: Qin Si was not like this before. Before he became a Tanhua Lang, he was filial to his parents, loved his sister, and treated his fiancee very tenderly and considerately. At that time, although their family did not have the wealth of the sky, they did well. Later, when Qin Si was appointed to visit Hualang, the Qin family’s mind changed drastically. They vaguely felt that a daughter of merchants like Jiang Xiaolou was not worthy of Qin Si, and they had to find another good relationship for him. In order to get Qin Si to marry Liu Yan, Mrs. Qin tried to persuade her many times. At that time, they were complacent about their influence, but now they discovered that the concept they instilled has been pushing Qin Si forward. Climbing upwards, climbing continuously, and desperately climbing to the highest point, there is only this idea in his mind. Gradually, he no longer respected his parents and no longer loved his sister. He only had prosperity, power, fame and fortune in his heart.

The original gentle and filial son had been completely destroyed by them, and Madam Qin woke up, feeling soft and sweating, and fell to the ground involuntarily.

Qin Si was taken aback, but at the bottom of his heart he was extremely tired of Madam Qin’s madness. Everything today will bring countless troubles, and he can’t forgive Mrs. Qin’s actions.

Mrs. Qin said with tears on her face: “Let’s not do this official, son, let’s go back! Let’s go back to our hometown!”

Qin Si said indifferently, “It’s late mother. From the moment I sit in this position, it is destined that I can’t give up all this.” He coldly told the maid beside him: “Lock the door and never allow anyone Let the madam out.”

The maids looked at each other, at a loss, Qin Si suddenly raised his voice again: “Understand?”

“Yes, son.”

Qin Si squinted his eyes and stared at the sunlight outside the door. At this moment, a dark cloud gradually covered the sun. The sky was gloomy and stormy.

The next day, veteran Yang Ge handed a book to the emperor’s book case. The emperor glanced at him suspiciously, opened the memorial, and hurriedly scanned it, then put down Zhezi and said: “Old Ge, Qin Si is your disciple after all. He has always had a good character and a good reputation. I believe that he It’s impossible to commit such a bad hand.”

Old Yang Ge snorted and his eyes were angry: “Your Majesty, the evidence for Qin Si’s killing of her younger sister may not be sufficient, but the minister must remind you that people with unhealthy family styles should not be officials in Beijing.”

Family style… Many officials lost their career paths in this aspect.

On the Monday dynasty, the moral character of officials is very important. If an official catches fire in his backyard, condones his children to commit crimes, framed and slandered others, or has serious life style problems, it is easy to be exposed, and then abandon the official and abandon the title and fall into desperation. Qin Si’s sister is indeed a murderer, and this is a crime committed by the official’s relatives. Although Qin Si had no direct guilt and was passively implicated, one thing is certain, Qin Si did not manage his family well. Thinking of this, there was a hint of hesitation on the emperor’s face.

Lao Zhuangruo Yang Ge reminded him inadvertently: “Your Majesty, do you still remember the case of Chen Zhong, the Minister of Industry Shangshu ten years ago?”

The emperor was stunned, and he had completely forgotten if he didn’t talk about it.

Old Yang Ge was unhurried, and said: “Chen Zhong’s wife did not give birth to a child, but his concubine Zhang gave birth to a son, but Zhang was very irritable, and he treated the servants all the time, even I personally flogged the maidservants and eventually caused the tragic death of several innocent maids…”

The emperor nodded: “Of course I remember.”

A sneer appeared on Yang Ge’s old face: “After the incident, Yu Shi told Chen Zhong that he had committed adultery with his maidservant and condoned his wicked concubine to hurt others. It was really filthy and turbulent. How did your Majesty deal with it at that time?”

The emperor’s face was red: “This…I removed him from officialdom and exiled him.”

The Great Zhou Dynasty advocated that the emperor committed the same crime as the common people, but if the emperor really committed a crime, it was nothing more than a beating of dragon robes, or someone else was punished, when did he really see any punishment? The same is true for high-ranking ministers. Chen Zhong’s concubine forced the death of an innocent maidservant because of his jealousy, but the court thought it was not a big deal, but the death of a few maidservants, why bother to shake the world. All several people jointly filed a complaint that Jing Zhaoyin at the time still protected Chen Zhong in every possible way, and openly called: Handmaid can be bought and sold, like a cow and horse, what matters, but Chen Zhong was sentenced to compensation for some silver. But Jing Zhaoyin and most officials think so, and those yushi who love to catch the wind do not think so. They hunted down and found Chen Zhong’s lace news, saying that he had an affair with several maids.

In fact, this crime can be big or small. At a smaller level, he just likes women and is more romantic; but at a bigger level, he will kill him if he fails. A fire in the backyard of an official caused a moral problem.

The emperor didn’t think it was a major issue, so he wanted to pardon Chen Zhong at the time, but the historians clung to it, saying that they were fabricated or slanderous. Whether Chen Zhong committed adultery with his maidservant was not important. The important thing was that his backyard was on fire and his life was lost. The historians reasonably used moral tools to create an uproar and quickly pulled Chen Zhong down.

Unnecessary morality can be fatal. Now Qin Si can be said to be repeating the same mistakes, he did not take care of his sister, and even made her a murderer. After a few days of getting married, the county prince stretched his legs, sure that the Qin family’s family style was not good.

The emperor thought for a long time, but he still hesitated on his face: “Elder Ge, about Qin Si…I think he has made a fair ruling on this matter. Not everyone can do justice to destroy relatives.”

“The righteousness kills relatives? Qin Si recently locked her at home in the name of her mother’s madness. Does your majesty know? The city is full of troubles, and it will leave no words to anyone!”

The emperor naturally knew that he had already dealt with the officials who had caused the criticism, but…Qin Si was a person protected by the prince. If he moved him easily, the prince would inevitably have suspicions and affect the relationship between the father and son. .

“Otherwise…Send him to Linzhou to be a magistrate, what do you think?”

Dazhou officials are rarely demoted, usually if the emperor is not pleasing to the eye, most of them are transferred to the local level. If an official is expelled from the capital, he will basically be unable to return. Therefore, the emperor’s decision was already a relatively compromised solution.

Old Yang Ge smiled and said faintly: “I will follow your majesty’s will.”

Prince’s Mansion, Study Room

The thrushes under the corridor sang endlessly, singing melodiously and gracefully, but there was a dead silence in the study.

When Qin Si heard the news, the tea cup in his hand suddenly knocked on the edge of the cup, making a crisp sound, and couldn’t help but stare at the prince and said, “His Royal Highness, you also agree that I go to Linzhou?”

The prince sighed softly: “Qin Si, Qin Si, don’t blame me for not being willing to defend you. This time it was the old man who filed a complaint in front of the father, saying that you have no way to discipline and the backyard caught fire. Your sister It’s true that there is no feminine virtue, she is the one who troubles you.”

It is somewhat far-fetched to say that Qin Tian’er’s murder case is related to Qin Si, but on the one hand, Prince An’s Mansion is putting pressure on the emperor; on the other hand, Yang Gelao is jumping up and down, making the emperor have to make such a ruling. Seeing that Qin Si could no longer turn over this time, he fixedly looked at the prince and said, “His Royal Highness, is there no room for change in this matter?”

The prince shook his head lightly, his eyes solemn: “I have entered the palace to report to the emperor, but no matter what I say, the emperor insists that you should go and exercise. Don’t worry, I will try to bring you up in a few years. of.”

These words were purely comforting, and Qin Si couldn’t be more clear that once he was far away from the center of power, there were many helpers around the prince, and I don’t know how many people were waiting to replace him. In other words, his official career has been completely ruined from then on… His hands clenched the teacup subconsciously, and almost exhausted all his strength, before he could barely smile and get up and bid farewell to the prince.

Jin Yu Man Tang

Qin’s carriage stopped at the door, Qin Si went straight into the restaurant, and really saw Jiang Xiaolou calling the shopkeeper. Her profile is gentle and beautiful, her lips are lightly fat, and she is dressed in a green lotus-colored dress with a slender waist, making her look slimmer and pleasing to the eye.

“Jiang Xiaolou, you really did what you said, completely ruining my future.” Qin Si said coldly.

Jiang Xiaolou turned his head, and the tassels in his hair trembled instantly. Seeing that it was him, he couldn’t help but smile: “Master Qin is coming here, I don’t know what is going on?”

Qin Si only felt a burst of strong hatred in his heart, quietly gnawing his flesh and blood, and gritted his teeth and said: “You designed all this. Any fire in the backyard is purely a fiction!”

Jiang Xiaolou’s clear eyes were stained with a faint smile: “Master Qin has wronged me. If you hadn’t been ruthlessly planing the grave of someone’s ancestors, why would you have been chased and beaten. Oh, where was the distribution of Master Qin? ”

“Miss, Lin Zhou!” Xiaodie answered immediately.

“Linzhou…That’s a good place. There are many scorpions and a lot of quicksands. You must be careful not to encounter stray bandits on the way. Those people are always murderous, and don’t know the famous Tanhua Lang. “Jiang Xiaolou said with a smile to Yan Yan, with a sweet smile.

Qin Si clenched his hand and took a step forward subconsciously. If possible, he wished that Jiang Xiaolou would never be able to speak, but he couldn’t. The smiling woman in front of him was a poisonous scorpion. She accidentally stung him. There is no more chance to stand up. He stood on the spot for a long time, his face changed, until his expression calmed down again, he smiled proudly: “Don’t worry, you may not be the final winner!” After speaking, he walked away.

Li Xuening dressed in a snow-blue dress, Yingying appeared behind Jiang Xiaolou, watching Qin Si leaving behind, and said: “The crazy dog ​​is forced into the alley, and he will definitely fight back. Be extra careful.”

Jiang Xiaolou knew Qin Si’s personality better than anyone else. Although he had been driven to a desperate situation, he would never sit still. Turning her head to look at Li Xuening, a gentle and cheerful expression appeared on her face: “He will do everything possible to stay in the capital.”

Li Xuening’s eyes were astonished: “Your Majesty’s imperial decree has been laid down. There is no chance to change it. Is it possible for him to turn over?”

Jiang Xiaolou just smiled, looking at Li Xuening with his mo-like eyes: “If you don’t believe it, let’s make a bet.”

It is a pity that Jiang Xiaolou was not sure what method Qin Si would use to stay in the capital.

Qin Si returned to the mansion, and never came out as soon as he went into the study. All day and night, he locked himself in the study, not allowing anyone to enter. When dawn was about to dawn, he suddenly got up and walked out of the study, sleepwalking, until he walked to the gate of Mrs. Qin’s courtyard. The handmaid guarding the door saw him and hurriedly bowed in salute. He waved his hand and said, “It’s okay. I just came to see my mother. Has she taken the medicine?”

The maid replied immediately: “Yes, son, the lady has taken the medicine. It’s just that I had nightmares last night and couldn’t sleep well, so I just fell asleep.”

Qin Si had a gentle expression and an unusually calm tone: “You are doing a good job. Starting tomorrow, you will increase your monthly bill by one or two cents each month. Mother will leave it to you to take care of it. Be careful.

Everyone couldn’t help but rejoiced and quickly thanked them.

Qin Si waved his hand and told them to retreat and walk straight into the house. The windows in the room were closed tightly, and Mrs. Qin snored loudly. Qin Si stepped closer to the bed, condescendingly looking at his mother’s restless sleep. Mrs. Qin’s brows were still frowning tightly in her sleep, seemingly nightmares again and again.

The hands in Qin Si’s sleeves curled up into a ball, with blue veins bursting out of his forehead, as if he was struggling fiercely in his heart. At this moment, Mrs. Qin on the bed turned over, Qin Si was shocked and took a step back subconsciously, and then he almost wanted to escape. However, when he walked to the door, Jiang Xiaolou’s extremely proud face suddenly appeared in his mind, and he suddenly stopped. The whole person was stiff as a rock, standing still, motionless. Afterwards, he finally made up his mind, suddenly turned around, and walked quickly to the bed…

After a while, Qin Sicai walked out of the house and asked the maidservant with a calm expression: “Mother is not sleeping peacefully, don’t disturb her easily, take good care of her.”

Seeing that there seemed to be fine sweat on Qin Si’s forehead, the maidservant didn’t think much about it, but she just responded and watched the son leave. Only Jun’er quietly looked at Qin Si’s expression, showing a thoughtful appearance. In the past, the son was late in dealing with official duties, but occasionally this happened. I heard that he had sneaked in and closed the doors and windows for his wife personally to protect her from the wind and cold. It’s just that all of this is the past. Since the lady used the threat of suicide to go out that day, the relationship between the two has deteriorated sharply, why did Qin Si come to visit at dawn…

The next morning, Jun’er didn’t wait for Madam Qin’s call, so she didn’t dare to go in and disturb her until it was almost noon, she felt something was wrong. Pushing the door in, she suddenly found Madam Qin lying on the bed with a pale face and stiff body, and she had not breathed for a long time.

Jun’er trembled and suddenly woke up, and rushed out: “Come here, madam, madam is dead! Madam is dead!”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the entire Qin Mansion was boiling.

Qin Tanhua’s mother passed away, so he immediately asked the emperor to allow him to stay in Jingding and not let him go. This request was reasonable and reasonable. The emperor thought that Qin Si was filial to his mother and would not leave the capital for the time being. This was a manifestation of filial piety, so he rejected the original decision and ordered him to stay in the capital for three years before thinking about it.

Jin Yu Man Tang

When Xie Liancheng specially visited and offered to play a game with Jiang Xiaolou, Jiang Xiaolou was a little surprised. She thought that Xie Liancheng would never see her again, but…

“It’s your turn.” Xie Liancheng smiled lightly on his lips. His chess skills are very superb, and he has driven Jiang Xiaolou to a dead end in just a few steps.

Jiang Xiaolou was pondering, but Xiaodie opened the door and said loudly, “Miss, it’s not good, Mrs. Qin is dead!”

The chess piece in Jiang Xiaolou’s hand froze suddenly and turned his head in disbelief: “What did you say?”

“Mrs. Qin is dead, and Qin Si continues to stay in the capital under the name of Ding You.” Xie Liancheng sighed and answered on her behalf.

“You knew it a long time ago?” Jiang Xiaolou took a deep breath, looking complicated.

There were elegant eyes in these charming eyes, and he looked straight into his eyes, revealing a kind of exquisite soft light.

He got the news earlier, but he didn’t want Jiang Xiaolou to be disappointed, so he would appear here. Xie Liancheng stared at her with a deep gaze: “Qin Si won’t give in easily. How could a person who loves his position so much leave the capital? Isn’t this something you had expected?”

The pupils in Jiang Xiaolou’s eyes shrank, and his body trembled slightly, and his thoughts surged up: “I expected that he would try his best to stay in the capital, but unexpectedly Mrs. Qin passed away.”

Mrs. Qin had always been healthy, but she died at this stormy time, which really helped him a lot.

Xie Liancheng just chuckled, “No, it’s not a coincidence.”

There was a flash of inspiration in Jiang Xiaolou’s mind, and he stood up instantly: “Should not—no, probably not…” She sat down slowly again. Although Qin Si was a cruel and ruthless villain, she stood up. No matter how vicious, we should not be a killer to elderly parents. Once revealed, the consequences are simply unimaginable!

Xie Liancheng’s eyes were bright and gentle like moonlight. He reminded: “After the incident, Qin Si hurriedly prepared for the funeral and will arrange the burial soon. Once Mrs. Qin is buried, it will never be possible again. The truth of her death has been found out.”

A thought flashed in Jiang Xiaolou’s mind: “Perhaps…I can wait for Madam Qin to be buried and have her body exhumed.”

“It’s better to ask the dead than to the living.” I don’t know when, a faint smile appeared on the face of Xie Lian, whose bones were cold.

Jiang Xiaolou looked for these words for a moment, a smile slowly rose on his lips, and he nodded: “Yes, living talents are such a fuss.”

Within three days, an explosive news broke out in the capital. Mrs. Qin’s maid, Jun’er, quietly escaped and went to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to complain to her master. She kept saying that Mrs. Qin was killed by her own son. Jing Zhaoyin didn’t dare to accept such a paper, and immediately reported it to the emperor. This big ethical case shocked the world.

According to Jun’er’s testimony, Tanhua Qin Si murdered his mother in order to avoid decentralization. While she was asleep at night, she cruelly buried her mother-in-law with a pillow, causing Mrs. Qin to die on the spot, and then stayed in the capital under the name of her mother, Ding You.

In this society, killing mothers is far more rebellious than rebellion. What a risk! The emperor was full of doubts and ordered an autopsy to be opened.

When Madam Qin’s body was taken out, Wu Zuo discovered that Madam Qin did not die of suffocation, but a colorless and odorless poison. Although there was a discrepancy with Jun’er’s testimony, only Qin Si had entered Madam Qin’s bedroom before dawn. As a result, the emperor became more angry. Qin Si was full of poems and books, and was an official in the court, but he brutally killed his biological mother for the sake of official career. As the saying goes, dogs are not too poor at home, and children are not too ugly. Even if Mrs. Qin is really crazy, after all, it is his biological mother who is cruel to his own mother. Just imagine what such officials do? The emperor ordered Qin Si to be arrested immediately, but the people who were ordered to arrest him only found the demented Master Qin in the Qin Mansion, and he could not see Qin Si at all. It turned out that he had already fled the wind when he learned of the grave digging.

Jiang Xiaolou asked Chu Han to search for Qin Si everywhere, and posted a reward, insisting on digging out the person.

Xie Liancheng just smiled: “He has already become a prisoner. Are you still unwilling to let him go?”

Jiang Xiaolou’s bright eyes flashed with cold light: “I won’t feel at ease if I don’t watch him die with my own eyes.”

However, the court officials could not find Qin Si, the government officials could not find him, and the people sent by Yang Ge and Jiang Xiaolou also found nothing. Jiang Xiaolou couldn’t understand where he went.

The major gates of the capital were tightly sealed. People were searching for the mother-killing prisoner. The government officers carried his images and searched from house to house. The surrounding states and counties also searched one by one, but they did not see them at all. Silhouette, can Qin Si really fail to fly?

Seeing Jiang Xiaolou’s anxiety about this, Xie Liancheng’s deep pool-like eyes showed a faint smile: “The most dangerous place is the safest place.”

The speculations of Xie Liancheng and Jiang Xiaolou can be said to coincide: “You are right, he must be still in the capital now. It’s just that we send people to search for all the restaurants, inns, tea houses, and even the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion. Yes, there is no trace…”

From the moment Qin Si escaped, he carefully analyzed his current situation. As the imperial criminal who killed his mother, he would definitely be wanted throughout the country. If he wanted to escape the law, he had to change his face. He changed his clothes with the beggar first, and then used a small awl to poke blood holes one after another on the handsome face, and quietly smeared hemostatic powder on it. After he washed his face again, he would get scars in a day or two. , When the scar grew firm, fine black spots appeared on his face, which looked terrifying and ugly, completely covering the handsome face. Next, he swallowed a charcoal fire, burned his throat, and hid his belongings, disheveled his hair, and mixed up among the beggars to live by begging.

On this day, he was begging along the street with a begging jar in his hand. At some point, someone suddenly lost a copper plate to the jar. Following the sound of the copper plate ding, he lowered his head and thanked him, “Thank you, Miss!”

With his head hanging down, he saw a pair of beautiful embroidered shoes. The pearls on the embroidered shoes shone and exuded a fascinating light.

He is going to the left, with the shoes on the left. He was going to the right, and she was blocking the right again. He paused and raised her head subconsciously. The woman was looking at him with a smile. In the sun, her smile was almost transparent, her eyes were clear and dazzling. But this face caused Qin Si to shake involuntarily, and his whole body fell into the ice cave in an instant.

Jiang Xiaolou didn’t seem to recognize him, but he was regretful: “Look, I didn’t ask for anything from morning to night, Xiaodie, give him some food.”

Xiaodie responded and poured the food in the food box into his jar.

Smelling the smell of the rotten water, Qin Si frowned subconsciously, but quickly stretched it out. He quickly picked up the jar, not caring about what filthy thing was inside, and quickly put it into his mouth. Falling down, he still vaguely thanked Jiang Xiaolou: “Good-hearted lady, kindly rewarded…”

He hated Jiang Xiaolou to the extreme in his heart, but he was infinitely grateful on his face. He secretly rejoiced that his clothes were tattered, his hair was disheveled, and his face was pocky. Jiang Xiaolou could not have thought that he was Qin Si anyway. Watching Jiang Xiaolou go away, Qin Si wowed and vomited everything in his mouth. He looked down and saw that there was a puddle of yellowing soup on the ground, he couldn’t help becoming more disgusted, stood up bitterly, and turned into an alley off the beaten track.

Just as Qin Si walked into the alley, a very sturdy man suddenly stopped him, his face seemed to be smiling, “Than Hua Lang!”

With this cry, Qin Si almost lost his soul. He took two steps backwards and bowed his head deeply and said, “This big brother, have you admitted the wrong person?”

His rough voice is extremely low, completely different from before.

The other party laughed loudly: “Miss, you are right, this is Qin Si.”

Qin Si only felt that his body was weak and his fear was indescribable. When he turned his head, he saw Jiang Xiaolou’s smiling face.

Jiang Xiaolou moved Lianbu lightly and walked over, half-squinting his eyes up and down, looking at him up and down, his eyes were extremely cold, but his face was smiling: “Master Qin is really easy for me to find. I sent people to search around in the past two days. There are counties, inns, restaurants, but no trace of you can be found. I thought you would fly into the sky and hide in the beggar. But what’s wrong with your face?”

Qin Si gasped, and an indescribable coldness spread to his limbs. If he is on the street where people come and go, he may still have a chance to escape, but here he has no chance. With a heartbreak, he fell to his knees with a plop, crawling and begging: “Xiaolou, read on our previous feelings–”

Jiang Xiaolou raised his eyebrows, slightly raised eyebrows with a hint of mockery: “What did you say?”

Qin Si’s expression changed, and he immediately changed his words: “Since we grew up together and because I was good to you before, please spare me! Give me a way to survive, and you can see what I have become. Looks like, I can’t threaten you anymore!”

Jiang Xiaolou lowered his eyes slightly to look at him: “If you are honestly released, or I will give you a way out, but you are willing to kill your own biological mother, and don’t want to give up the power at your fingertips, how terrible? !”

Qin Si shrank subconsciously, looked at Jiang Xiaolou, and shamelessly continued begging: “No matter what, your purpose has been achieved. You ruined me, completely! Now I have nothing to lose. , What else do you want?”

Jiang Xiaolou pondered: “Yes, you have lost your wife, sister, parents, and even the future you care about most. I should stop, don’t you think?”

Qin Si quickly said: “Yes! As long as you let me stay alive, I will leave here far away and never show up again!”

Jiang Xiaolou’s ink-colored eyes flashed across a cold light, and he smiled lightly on his face: “Don’t you still have another precious thing?”

Qin Si looked at Jiang Xiaolou, and for some reason there was a fear spreading from his heart. He felt cold all over, and even his body was trembling: “I…what else do I have?”
