The general's wife through time

Chapter 41 Becomes the focus of gossip again

When Xue Tang arrived at Taotie Tower, Mu Xian had been waiting at the door for a long time.

After welcoming the person into the private room, Mu Xian said anxiously: "You promised Qin Yuan to attend the banquet."

Xue Tang nodded.

Mu Xian shook his head, "Qin Yuan is looking for you now, and it's definitely not good."

"It doesn't matter. I just took the opportunity to figure out the purpose behind him." Xue Tang said calmly.

After she went to Weiyuan last time, she never mentioned Weiyuan again, and Qin Yuan just wanted to test whether she had discovered anything, or if there was any new conspiracy that he could not wait to use against her, but no matter what it was, These were the breakthroughs she was waiting for.

Mu Xian looked at Xue Tang's expression and wondered for a moment whether she really had a plan, or whether she didn't know that shopping malls were like battlefields with hidden murderous intentions.

But it doesn't matter, the general is not here, and there are still him and Qin Lu.

Although Qin Lu's brain is not very good and he is far behind him, his martial arts is not bad. With his brain and Qin Lu's martial arts, he will definitely not go wrong.

Mu Xian stood in front of the window and glanced downstairs. He seemed to have seen something and smiled slightly, "Madam, let's deal with this matter first?"

Xue Tang: "Okay!"

She came today not to see Weiyuan's accounts, but to meet Shangguan Xun.

Shangguan Xun did not exchange greetings after entering the room, but said directly: "I have brought a reward to the general's wife."

When he said this, his expression was a little subtle.

"Why did Lord Shangguan say this?" Xue Tang asked calmly as he sat there.

Shangguan Xun didn't care that Xue Tang didn't stand up to greet him, but took out two banknotes from his sleeve pocket and asked Qiudie to hand them over to Xue Tang.

"These one thousand taels are Madam Qin's reward for helping Jingzhao Mansion solve the case this time. Following Madam's prompts, I carefully interrogated the old Gu master and confirmed that he had helped a group of people to abduct women and children before. Madam gave it to Emeishan The knights wrote to ask for help. This time our government and martial arts cooperated and uncovered the hideouts of many high-end people in Dajing. Originally, I wanted to ask His Majesty for a commendation decree, but I think Mrs. Qin may prefer silver notes. So I took it upon myself to ask for this reward from His Majesty."

At the Qin family's banquet last time, he saw a flash of disappointment on Xue Tang's face when he received the imperial edict. Thinking about this person who spent money like water before, he guessed that Xue Tang must like money.

Xue Tang smiled a little this time, stood up, took the banknote, and bowed slightly, "Thank you, Sir Shangguan. If Sir Shangguan doesn't mind, you can just call me Xue Tang, which is more smooth than Mrs. Qin."

Shangguan Xun: "Haha, okay. I didn't announce your help in solving the case to the public, just because I was worried that some people in the world or secret forces would be detrimental to you."

Xue Tang: "Sir Shangguan has thought carefully, but in fact there is no need to worry so much. The Qin family is a general. If I am afraid of mere secret forces, it will really be a disgrace to the lintel."

After hearing this, Mr. Shangguan, who was in his prime, not only no longer disliked Xue Tang, but also admired him even more.

Moreover, the way Xue Tang treated Qin Mingyue at the banquet that day and the way he handed over the case to Wei Shengmiao at his home were straightforward enough, a bit like his demeanor when he was on the battlefield.

He actually had the feeling of regretting seeing each other too late.

He thought that he was an official of the imperial court and should not have such hasty thoughts, but when Xue Tang said "general", he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

Why did you use Qin Mingrui's affairs to plot against Xue Tang? Those things don't exist at all!

Soon, people started eating melon again in the streets and alleys, and everyone was very excited this time.

"It turns out that Xue Tang showed up at Wei Shengmiao's house to help solve the case."

"I really didn't expect that Mrs. Qin really didn't take Wei Shengmiao seriously. All she cares about are the important matters of the country and the people. This is what a general's wife should be like."

"This is the example for ladies from big families to follow."

Xue Tang herself also listened to these gossips, but at the end, she felt that there was a hint of politics. She must be some royal force secretly setting the pace.

Shangguan Xun wiped his sweat silently in the dark. It's not easy for him to be a governor. The people must not know that he also carries out cultural propaganda according to orders. Duan family.

Duan Jingchen sat in the study and listened to the boy's report.

Duan Jingchu stuck his head out of the door and asked, "Brother, have you heard about the rumors outside?"

Duan Jingchen: "I'm not deaf, of course I can hear."

Duan Jingchu blinked and lowered his voice and asked, "So, you asked someone to go to Qin's house to deliver a post and wanted to visit, but Mrs. Qin refused again?"

Duan Jingchen was furious and glanced sideways at Duan Jingchu.

Duan Jingchu winced and quickly rubbed oil on his soles.

Duan Jingchen sat in the study for a while and called the secret guard to give some instructions in a low voice.

If Wei Shengmiao's incident hadn't happened, Yuan Weiming's shrinking turtle would never have emerged from the water. This time, even if the Si family doesn't kill Yuan Weiming, he will kill that bastard.

In prison.

When Eunuch Li came incognito, he saw Wei Shengmiao and Yuan Weiming sitting in the corner with dull eyes.

Si Wei was worried that there would be extraneous problems, so he detoxified Wei Shengmiao and Yuan Weiming's poison at Wei Shengmiao's house.

After the two were imprisoned, Shangguan Xun made special instructions to imprison them together so that Yuan Weiming could take care of his woman and children.

At this time, the two of them had just finished listening to the gossip sent by the Si family boy. Those who scolded Wei Shengmiao and Yuan Weiming, those who made publicity wantonly, and those who praised Xue Tang for doing well. None of them were missed. .

They had just had a fight because they were shirking responsibility, but they were pulled away by the jailer and given a solemn warning.

Yuan Weiming and Wei Shengmiao never imagined that they would be here today.

If they had known this, they should not have had any evil thoughts and should not have gone to Xue Tang...

Eunuch Li coughed lightly, "Master Yuan, how are you doing?"

Hearing Eunuch Li's voice, Yuan Weiming suddenly raised his head, his pupils dilated instantly.

He quickly stood up and came to the cell door. With a hint of hope in his eyes, he looked at the other party, "Master Li, Master Li, did your Majesty send you here?"

As he spoke, he raised his crippled right hand and said sadly: "I was wronged. My dignified official was lynched by Xue Tang. Please save me. When I get out, I will definitely punish Xue Tang's evil deeds." Your Majesty, let your Majesty punish her well and uphold the law of the country."

Eunuch Li paused, and then said calmly: "I came here to see what kind of person Lord Yuan is, who does not hesitate to collude with the scum of the martial arts world, know the law and break the law, and become a minister in vain, and has become a typical teaching material for officials. After reading it, I think it’s really worthwhile for me to make this trip. You are really a match made in heaven. Just enjoy the time when your loved one is by your side every day.”

After saying that, Eunuch Li left without any regrets.

Hopes were completely dashed, Yuan Weiming pointed at Wei Shengmiao and yelled, "Bitch! It's all because of you!"

Wei Shengmiao hated Yuan Weiming even more. Her child was very strong and survived well after being frightened and poisoned.

Now she wished she could slide her tires.

Wei Shengmiao turned around and glared at him fiercely, "You loser, how can you have the nerve to laugh at me?"

Yuan Weiming rushed over, "I'm going to kill you!"

The two men struggled together again.

The jailers immediately went in, separated the men, and pinned them to the ground.
