Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife

Chapter 40
On the token in Xiao Mu's hand, a big "Xuan" character is particularly conspicuous.

In Nanliang, the only one who takes the title of "Xuan" and is also called "Jiuye" is the Duke of the Su family.

Mrs. Zheng stiffened his neck, and was so angry that he was about to vomit blood. He wished he could peel off the whole body of his unworthy son. It would be bad to offend anyone, but to offend such a high-ranking figure as Duke Xuan!

Their family is a merchant, and if a merchant fights with an official, isn't this a dead end?
This is good, the heads of the Zheng family are pressed under the guillotine, once the little brother on the other side is a little unhappy and passes the letter to Duke Xuan, I am afraid that his old bones will not be tossed a few times. He had to be buried with his son on all fours.

Mrs. Zheng is a tactful person. When he thought of the pros and cons, he quickly forced a smile on his face, "I guess there must be some misunderstanding about this matter. Please come inside, little brother. Let's have a cup of hot tea first and then sit down and discuss in detail."

Xiao Mu has always been used to indifference, how could he accept the favor of Mrs. Zheng, "Since the servants of the Zheng family dared to assassinate our ninth lady in broad daylight, they were caught, but they dare not admit it in public, so they have to close the door." Is Damen secretly trying to excuse himself?"

Old Mrs. Zheng's eyebrows jumped, and the smile on his face became more attentive, "Where is it, what you said, little brother, is serious. Since it is about the ninth lady of your mansion, you have to let the old man take a breather and clear your mind by the way. That's fine. After all, this old man doesn't even know who the Ninth Madam of your family is, and it's impossible for the Zheng family to have anything to do with Xuan Guogong's mansion, so where did the assassination come from? So there must be some misunderstanding in this, we Why don't you go into the house and sort it out?"

"Stop doing this!" Xiao Mu snorted coldly, "If you refuse to admit it, then I have no choice but to transport all the coffins back to Shuntian Mansion. When the time comes, once Jin Yiwei intervenes in handling the case, you will be waiting with your heads in prison Be punished!"

Old Mrs. Zheng's face was blue and purple from holding back, he wanted to have a seizure but couldn't, his chest was bulging with anger.

Jinyiwei, that is a spy agency directly under the emperor's control. It goes up to the relatives of the emperor and down to the common people in the market. They arrest and investigate everything.

Mrs. Zheng gritted his teeth. Of course he didn't dare to bet with Duke Xuan Guo with his wealth and life, but once he accepted it, the thirteen coffins would cost 3000 taels. Given the current situation of the Zheng family, 3000 taels is life-saving money. Once it is allocated, the sky of the Zheng family will collapse. There is no business during this period. There are still dozens of servants in the house, and there are hundreds of helpers in various shops. , Which mouth is not allowed to eat?

Before that, that little bitch Yun Chuwei set up a scheme to cheat 1 taels. The situation was special at that time. In order not to be a candidate, their family had no choice but to smash their teeth and swallow blood into their stomachs. Lose all the money to Xuan Guogong?

It seems that the sky is going to kill the Zheng family!

Thinking that the two hemorrhages were all due to the traitor behind him, Mrs. Zheng couldn't bear it any longer, and slapped Zheng San hard with his backhand.

Zheng San was stunned, "Father, what are you doing?"

"Nizi! You don't know what's wrong!" Mrs. Zheng's eyes were full of scarlet, wishing to swallow Zheng Sansheng alive.

Two of his three sons have already married, and they all inherited his mantle and embarked on the business path. It's okay to spend all day in casinos, play actors, and fans without learning and skills, but even cause trouble for him every few days.

It is really unfortunate for the family to raise such an unfilial son.

Zheng San wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood up straight and said, "I didn't send someone to assassinate the ninth wife of their family, this is clearly a false accusation!"

What kind of shit Ninth Madam, he doesn't even know who the other party is.

Xiao Mu looked coldly, "The witnesses are all here, when is Mr. Zheng going to hang around?"

He was framed for no reason, of course Zheng San refused to accept it.

Mrs. Zheng was worried that he would speak against Xiao Mu, so he hurriedly spoke first, even respecting the title, "What does your lord mean, can you settle this matter with 3000 taels?"

What can be solved with money is not a problem.

In order to save the lives of the whole family, I can only go all out for now, and I will settle the score with my own son in the future!

"More than that." Xiao Mu replied blankly.

Old Mrs. Zheng frowned, "What else do you want, my lord?"

Xiao Mu stared at Zheng San, "Jiuye said, the 3000 taels of bank notes must be brought by Zheng Sanye to the Yun's house in Xinghua Village to kneel down and apologize to Mrs. Jiu, otherwise, this matter will be endless !"

Zheng San was stunned, "What did you say!"

Yun Chuwei?Madam Nine?
Xuan Guogong has only met Yun Chuwei once, when did this little bitch become so lucky to become Mrs. Jiu?

Mrs. Zheng was even more stunned when he heard it. It turned out that after talking for a long time, it was his daughter's treacherous and cunning stepdaughter Yun Chuwei who sent people to assassinate him!
With a breath stuck in his throat, Mrs. Zheng couldn't even utter a sound.

Xiao Mu has been waiting for Zheng San to give an answer.

"impossible!"

Zheng San hissed and retorted, "I can kneel to anyone you want, but I can't kneel to that bitch Yun Chuwei!"

The little bitch has caused the Zheng family so much misery. He sent people to assassinate him purely for revenge and justice. What's wrong?Why should he kneel down to the enemy!

"Huh?" Xiao Mu gradually raised his voice.

Mrs. Zheng woke up suddenly, and slapped Zheng San on the back of the head again.

Zheng San suffered from pain, his knees were unstable and he knelt down, facing Xiao Mu.

"father!"

Zheng San gritted his teeth and glared at the old man angrily.

The old man took advantage of the situation and kicked him, "A man can bend and stretch, you have the courage to assassinate the ninth lady, but now you don't have the courage to admit your mistake?"

In fact, Mrs. Zheng was not reconciled to Zheng San, an elder, kneeling down to a junior like Yun Chuwei who had only a little relationship with him, but in order to smooth over Duke Xuan, and to keep the more than 100 members of Zheng's family In order to save his life, he can only wrong his son and kneel down to admit his mistake.

Zheng San opened his mouth and wanted to say something more, but the old man raised his foot, ready to kick down again.

He hurriedly hugged his head and begged for mercy, "Father, I'll go, I'll just go."

For 3000 taels, the old man scraped together everything, and even set aside working capital to barely scrape together enough to buy the thirteen unlucky coffins at the door.

Xiao Mu personally escorted Zheng San to Xinghua Village.

At that time, Yun's small courtyard.

The doctor was cleaning and bandaging Yunchong who had injured his arm.

Yun Chuwei sat at the side, his brows furrowed all the time.

"Old man, is he in serious trouble?"

When the doctor stopped, Yun Chuwei hurriedly got up and asked.

The doctor stroked his gray beard, "Fortunately, the treatment was timely and no bones or muscles were injured. However, the flesh injury is more serious. During this period of time, you need to rest and not do any rough work, otherwise the wound will burst open, and it will be difficult to deal with."

"Hey, good." After hearing that there was no injury to the muscles and bones, it meant that the arm would not be disabled, Yun Chuwei finally breathed a sigh of relief, and personally sent the doctor out.

When she came back again, she looked straight at Yun Chong, "Why did your lord dare to take the risk to save me just now?"
