Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 241 Hui Shu Xi Gives Birth of Twins (2)
"Mother, I was afraid that those people would let Grandma Zeng hear howling, so I acted impulsively. I'm sorry, I was wrong." Qin Minye nodded quickly to admit his mistake.

He Huishu said quietly: "It's not a problem to go on like this. We can hide it for a while, but we can't hide it forever."

Qin Minye said anxiously: "Mother, the Empress Dowager collapsed immediately when she learned about the death of King Xuanjun. You can't tell Grandma Zeng about the death of Uncle."

He Huishu thought about it, and said, "Tanzhou Academy has two thousand guards, and it has been increased by three thousand not long ago. Before your father came back, we took your grandma Zeng to live in your aunt's house."

In the evening, [-] troops from Hunan Province rushed to the Duke's Mansion wearing armor. The general who led the team fiercely arrested more than [-] people from the Qin family and Tanzhou gangsters, tied them up with ropes, and sent a hundred soldiers to escort them away. To the barracks dungeon.

After hearing the news, several old men from the Qin family came to beg the general to release him.

"Before Li Taishi left for Beidi, he ordered that the Tanzhou Duke's Mansion and Hou's Mansion be unfavorable to the gangsters. Those who are serious will execute the whole family as slaves on the spot, and those who are light will be given [-] sticks to serve as military slaves in Beidi." The general almost raised his eyebrows with anger Several old men were arrested and tied up.

The children and grandchildren of the four old men who caused the most trouble in our family were among the more than 100 people who were arrested. If they went to Beidi, they would never come back in this lifetime.

The four old men were so angry that they fainted on the spot.

Two old men died that night. A few days later, when Qin Yue came back from Chang'an and learned of the incident, he was so angry that he took hundreds of soldiers to his home and took away all the land and shops that had been gifted more than ten years ago. When he came back, he declared to the outside world that he had severed ties with his family, and he was furious again.

Over the years, our family has been bullying the people around us, bullying men and women. In the most serious cases, they even dared to snatch the slaves of officials with low official positions. Their status plummeted, and those who had been oppressed by them immediately united to retaliate fiercely.

In just one month, more than [-] people from the government of Tanzhou sued my family. Tanzhou governor Shi Bing justly judged the case, and returned all the shops, fields, and money that my family seized by improper means to the original owners, and sentenced them according to the law. Fifty members of my family were exiled for three thousand miles, punished with sticks and other crimes.

Before, the family hired hundreds of bums to mourn outside the Duke's mansion, but later the guards and servants of the Duke's mansion came out to chase them away.

These bums beat the three guards to serious injuries, and the army rushed to arrest half of the bums and sent them directly to Beidi.

Their family members hated the family to death, and more than 200 people, old and young, came to the family every day to demand compensation. If they didn't give money, they would cry outside the dozen or so shops left by the family, and lost their business.

The family had to sell the shop and distribute the money to each house.Unexpectedly, because of the unequal distribution, there was a big conflict between the houses, two people were killed in the fight, and the last old man was also pissed to death.

How did the family get rich so quickly back then, and now it is declining at an even faster rate.

"Last year, our four families gave 4000 taels of silver notes to Ms. Lan and Ms. Yue in Chang'an Mansion. They personally agreed to help one person from each of our four families to become an official."

"My father was afraid that they would renege on their debts, so he specially sent someone to follow them for a few days. That day they got the banknotes and went to the jewelry store on the street to buy a lot of jewelry."

"Let's go to Chang'an to find them. How can it be okay if they don't do anything after receiving the bank notes?"

"This is our only hope."

"If they don't do anything, then return the banknotes. 4000 taels is enough for the four of us to open a store and make a comeback."

Half of the children and grandchildren of the four families were arrested and went to Beidi, and one of the remaining children and grandchildren from each family left Tanzhou to go to the Chang'an Duke's Mansion that day.

In the side hall of the Yulan Courtyard of the State Duke's Mansion in Tanzhou, He Huishu was sitting and looking at the account books that had been taken back from her family. When she got the reward from her servants, she snorted coldly and said, "Let them run into trouble!"

On the second day after Qin Yue returned to Tanzhou from Chang'an, he took the Ming family and He Huishu back to the mansion.

He Huishu already knew that Qin Yue's reputation was ruined in Chang'an Duke's Mansion.

Qin Yue patted the table and said angrily: "The good deeds of those two animals, they accepted bribes under the banner of the palace before they got married."

He Huishu shook her head and frowned and said: "If their reputation is ruined, it will be ruined. It's a pity that they have hurt Jing Niang."

The Jing Niang she was talking about was Qin Wanjing, the legitimate daughter of Qin Nan and the Deng family.

Qin Wanjing is 13 years old this year. She has a beautiful appearance, dignified and generous, intelligent and clever, and is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

The biological mother, Mrs. Deng, was born in a famous family, and she was very strict with her discipline. She was ten times more stable and fair than her four aunts at a young age.

Her two direct aunts are vulgar and stupid, and her two concubine aunts are frivolous and sinister, with a bad reputation.

The granddaughter of the dignified Duke's Mansion, started to negotiate with her relatives last year.

Now she has to keep a filial piety for her father for three years, and when the filial piety period expires, she will be 16 years old. It will be even more difficult to discuss marriage when she is older.

The butler led two travel-worn middle-aged men dressed in black boots as guards, "Second Master and Second Madam, they are the guards in front of the Crown Prince, and by order of the Crown Prince, they will deliver a letter to you."

"I have seen the second master and the second lady." The two guards presented the two letters with both hands, and they were a little surprised to see that Qin Yue's dark-skinned forehead was smooth without leaving any scars.

Qin Yue took over the letter from Qin Pukang, the elder nephew of the eldest son, glanced at ten lines at a glance, his bull's eyes widened, and shouted: "Hui Shu, Qin Dong's livestock was not born by father and Zhu family, he was born by Uncle Tian and an outside woman." An illegitimate child, my father raised him for more than ten years for Uncle Tian!"

He Huishu looked at the 23-page long letter written by Deng Shi, and saw the same incident, except that there was one thing that was not written in Qin Pukang's letter. Li's face was shocked, and she lost her voice: "Aunt Tian Jiahong is angry that Daddy is meddling in his own business." Helped Uncle Tian to hide it from her for more than ten years, led the soldiers to smash our house, and beat my father and mother."

Qin Yue was furious, slammed the table and shouted angrily: "Father has raised the son for the Tian family for more than ten years, why did Aunt Hong beat father and mother and smash our house?"

He Huishu didn't raise her head, and said in a loud voice: "Officials of this dynasty are not allowed to raise illegitimate children in the outer room. You don't know, father doesn't know, Uncle Tian doesn't know, don't the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty know? With impeachment, Uncle Tian's dukedom will not be guaranteed, and Aunt Hong has nowhere to vent her anger, so she found her parents."

Qin Yue looked embarrassed, and said angrily: "It's obviously Uncle Tian's fault, why should parents bear Aunt Hong's anger for him?"

"If I were Aunt Hong, I would sue directly, and my father would be punished for covering up Uncle Tian as well!" He Huishu glared at Qin Yue, and said coldly: "Even if good brothers share weal and woe, they will be punished together and lose the country." The dukedom is done."

Qin Yue said anxiously: "Hui Shu, why are you talking like that?"
