Chapter 227
Ying Chu expressed his position, and the old lady will not pursue this matter anymore. The fact is that no matter how much she pursues, she will not be able to find out why.

"All of you go down." The old lady pointed to the three ladies.

Both Qi Anlin and Qi Anru obediently left the room, Qi Anyao dawdled for a while, and then left with a pout.

When she got outside, she complained to Qi Anlin: "Whether it's grandma or parents, they keep everything from us, but let Hua and sister-in-law know, isn't it just because we are daughters!"

Qi Anlin persuaded in a gentle voice: "Sister, grandma and parents don't let us know, they have their own reasons, the less they know, the less they will worry about it, right?"

Qi Anyao sneered, and gave her a contemptuous look: "Talking to you is really good, but you are as meek as a snail, you don't know what to fight for, you deserve to be loved by no one!"

Qi Anlin lowered her head with a pale face, she was not likable, her mother loved her younger sister more than her, but she really didn't want to argue about anything.

As soon as the door of the main room was closed, the old matriarch sternly said: "Please tell me frankly, where did those things in the secret room come from?!"

Qi Xiushen had been prepared for a long time, and said unhurriedly: "It's useless to ask where the things come from now, and I don't remember either."

The old lady patted the table: "What's your attitude? Don't you know how to repent?!"

"Mother misunderstood me, I'm just telling the truth." Qi Xiushen said, "Father and mother are half-life scumbags. They are invincible when it comes to killing enemies on the battlefield, but they are not proficient in the rules of officialdom. Our Qi family tree is very popular. If If you don’t unite with some people and help each other, I’m afraid you will be squeezed out and plotted against!”

The old lady laughed anxiously: "So, the Qi family still survives only by accepting bribes and forming a party for personal gain? All of us should thank you for your contribution to the Qi family?!"

"My son doesn't dare." Qi Xiushen lowered his eyes slightly.

The old matriarch swept all the tea sets under Qi Xiushen's feet, "Don't you dare? Why don't you dare! It's justifiable to ruin the reputation of the Qi family. Where did you throw all the teachings that the Duke taught you?" ?!"

Qi Xiushen knelt down on the ground.

Several other people in the second room quickly followed suit and knelt down.

"Grandmother calm down," Yingchu hurriedly stepped forward to hold the old lady's trembling hand, and poured a drop of spiritual spring, "Grandmother's health is important, don't be angry and ruin your body!"

The aching heart of the old lady eased slightly, she pointed at the door, and scolded Qi Xiushen: "Go to the ancestor's spiritual seat and think about it, copy the family instructions a hundred times! I won't punish you severely, save others You think I'm treating the concubine harshly, wait for me to write a letter to the Duke, and let him deal with you personally!"

"Son, leave." Qi Xiushen immediately got up and left the room, as long as he can keep the money, a little punishment is nothing.

After the people in the second room left, the old lady sat back on the chair weakly, with a tired face.

"I'm getting old," the old matriarch said dejectedly, "I'm worried a lot when I'm old, and I'm not as fearless as I was when I was young."

When she was young, she didn't rub her eyes. When something like this happened, even her own son would turn it over to the emperor to plead guilty.Now he has to look forward and backward, for the sake of the overall situation of the Qi family, in order to keep the last bloodline of the Duke, he has to compromise and pretend that nothing happened.

"Grandmother, please don't say that," Yingchu said, "If Grandmother hadn't been in charge, the Qi family would have fallen into the hands of the Second Household, and the Second Master would have no scruples in doing things, and the Qi Family would really face disaster."

The old matriarch forced a smile, feeling somewhat relieved in his heart. "Those stolen money must be disposed of in a way, otherwise it will be a disaster if it is exposed!"

Qi Changjin said: "Grandma, don't worry, just leave this matter to me."

The old matriarch was a little hesitant. She knew about his grandson's abilities, but this matter was really not a trivial matter, and he couldn't make any business trips.

"I discussed it with Yingchu, and we have a solution, so don't worry, grandma." Qi Changjin assured.

The old lady wanted to ask him what to do, Yingchu said coquettishly: "Grandmother, I'm hungry, I haven't eaten much since yesterday, let's have breakfast first."

The old matriarch immediately said distressedly: "Okay, let's go eat first, Chang Jin is really good, why didn't I know how to get you something to eat yesterday."

Qi Changjin, who was innocently scapegoated, silently acquiesced in this scapegoat.

As soon as Xiao Zhou left from Rongxi Hall, she immediately went to Prince Chen's Mansion to look for the side concubine Mu Nuanqing.

Mu Nuanqing couldn't put it down for the new makeup she sent, and when she heard that Qi Changsheng wanted to take on the task of rebuilding the other garden, she wondered: "Cousin is short of money? If you rebuild the other garden for me, you won't get much money. "

"What did you say?" Little Zhou said, "Your husband has angered the old matriarch. He just wanted to find something to go out and hide. It is a big deal for you to rebuild the other garden for your majesty. In terms of face, it's not easy to trouble your husband anymore."

Mu Nuanqing was flattered by her indiscriminately, and smiled very usefully: "I don't have such a big face in front of the old lady, but I can help my cousin to block it."

With Mu Nuanqing's approval, Xiao Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, and talked to her for a while, coaxing her to smile, and then left.

In the afternoon of that day, Qi Changsheng recruited a large number of people, and truckloads of stone and timber were transported to the other garden.

It took them three days to strictly check the inside and outside of the west courtyard, deal with all suspicious people, and then on the fourth night, taking advantage of the dark moon and high wind, they secretly acted.

Qi Changjin embraced Yingchu, sat on a roof by the side of the street, and looked at the back door of Duke Qi's mansion.

They didn't have to wait long before the back door opened from the inside, and several carriages drove out with stacked boxes. All of them were dressed in black and their faces were masked.

Qi Changjin and Yingchu chased after her not too far away, until they arrived at Mu Nuanqing's other garden.

Arriving here, Qi Changjin became more cautious, found a banyan tree with dense branches, and hid in with Yingchu in his arms.

Soon, what they expected happened. Halfway through the unloading of the men in black, a group of men with weapons rushed out, and the two sides began to fight without saying a word.

"It's the Imperial Forest Army." Qi Changjin whispered into Yingchu's ear.

Yingchu shrinks back sensitively, and hums lightly.

The group of men in black were not afraid of death, but they were outnumbered. Seventy-seven people were killed in a quarter of an hour, and the remaining few captured people killed themselves by biting the poison in their tooth pockets before the Imperial Forest Army could stop them.

The commander of the Royal Forest Army opened a box, and a dazzling golden light leaked out of it.

With a shake of his hand, the box closed again.

Looking at the boxes, everyone present couldn't help short of breath, and finally the commander shouted: "Mission completed, go back and report!"

Everyone calmed down, piled the boxes on the car again, and escorted them back to the palace.
