When Shen Yuzhi brought the things up, Luo Ran was stunned.
"Evidence of the crime of the second uncle and the Li family?"
Luo Ran looked at the dozen or so densely packed folds. Although none of them were fatal, it was enough to cause him to lose his official position.
One of them is enough to put Lodwin in jail.
Shen Yuzhi saw her staring at the end and said, "This is still your credit."
"My credit?"
"Do you know what it is?"
Luo Ran asked.
"Armor."
Shen Yuzhi said softly.
Luo Ran was a little puzzled: "Why is the second uncle hiding that thing?"
Hiding armor privately was a serious crime in that dynasty.
Shen Yu knew: "This matter has to start with Li."
It turns out that a few years ago, Mrs. Li heard something from a Taoist priest who said that having armor at home would protect her children and grandchildren from being granted official titles. At that time, she was thinking about Dafang's title.
So he paid someone to get a set from the battlefield and hid it at home.
I don't know why Aunt Mei discovered it a few days ago. How can a country woman know so much? She just saw that it was well hidden and thought it was some kind of treasure.
Then he ordered someone to secretly take it to a pawn shop.
Coincidentally, she didn't dare to go to those time-honored shops in the capital, so she chose one that was about to open, which was the one that Luo Ran had remodeled from the original silk and satin shop, and Huang Jie was now the shopkeeper.
Aunt Mei's people didn't know about Huang Jie, but Huang Jie knew that she was from the Luo family. He stabilized himself on the spot and it was too late to inform Luo Ran, so he had to go to Dali Temple to ask Shen Yuzhi for help.
"Where is the armor now?"
Luo Ran asked.
Shen Yuzhi: "I asked Aunt Mei to take it back, but I asked Huang Jie to tell her that this thing cannot be shown to others easily, and I will inform her after the price has been negotiated with the shopkeeper."
Luo Ran nodded and asked again: "After these things are exposed, my second uncle's dismissal is a trivial matter. Will it implicate my father?"
Shen Yuzhi thought for a moment and answered truthfully: "Although these things were all done by your second uncle, before my uncle returned to Beijing, he did many things under the banner of the Champion House. The Emperor Shengming will not pursue any further investigation, but just I'm afraid that someone with intentions will take advantage of it, after all..."
Luo Ran: "No need to say anything, cousin, I understand. After all, Fu Jinan is also on the cusp of the storm now, and even a trivial matter will be magnified infinitely."
Shen Yuzhi nodded: "That's why he gave me the evidence. He just wanted you to make a decision, and he asked me to tell you, don't worry about him."
Luo Ran was a little funny: Why did this person go around in such a big circle? Isn't it better to tell her directly?
Shen Yuzhi knew the man's thoughts, but he just didn't want to cause trouble to Luo Ran and pretended not to know.
While the two were talking, Youqing came in in a panic: "Madam, it's not good! There is a letter from the Hou Mansion, and the old lady fainted!"
Luo Ran: "Grandma?"
/
Champion House.
Luo Ruxue waited another day yesterday, but still didn't see Luo Ran come back. Early this morning, she went to the old lady again and cried: "Grandma! Look, the eldest sister doesn't even listen to you now! I said the child's matter is hers She told my cousin that she must have deliberately lured the prince there that day in the palace. Don’t you believe it? Look at it now, she must have a guilty conscience, so she didn’t dare to come!”
The old lady snorted coldly: "Come here! Send a message to that scoundrel and say I'm dead! Let's see if she comes back!"
Aunt Qian stood there watching her nose and nose without making any move.
Luo Ruxue raised her pretty eyebrows and said: "Mother Qian, didn't you hear what grandma said? You still don't care about grandma now! Be careful that I betray you all!"
Only then did Aunt Qian raise her head and said slowly: "Second Miss, this is the Hou's Mansion, and this old slave belongs to the Marquis. It is up to the Marquis whether to sell or not, and Second Miss can't say or do anything. Also, you We are guests, and the eldest lady is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis, and the owner of the Marquis's mansion. It is up to the eldest lady to decide whether to come back or not, and not to listen to what outsiders say."
"You, you bitch slave! Are you going to rebel? Grandma, drive her out!"
Luo Ruxue's face turned red with anger, she pointed at Aunt Qian and shouted.
The old lady was also very angry: "It's contrary, it's contrary! You are going to make me angry to death!"
"Who wants to make you angry to death?"
Without waiting for word of mouth, mother and daughter Fang and Fu Mingzhu came in aggressively.
-
Shen Yu didn't trust Luo Ran, so he sent her back specially.
On the carriage, Youqing briefly talked about the matter.
It turned out that Aunt Qin in the east courtyard felt unwell early this morning, so Fu Shiheng hurriedly called the doctor.
What a coincidence, Fu Mingzhu felt uncomfortable and stopped the doctor halfway.
Fu Shiheng was angry and wanted to argue, but was stopped by Qiqin, saying that the eldest lady's health was important and advised Fu Shiheng to go over and take a look.
The more sensible she became, the more Fu Shiheng felt distressed, so he simply took her to Fu Mingzhu's yard.
The doctor looked a little unhappy after checking Fu Mingzhu's pulse. Qiqin happened to come at this time. When he heard about the eldest lady's condition, Qiqin was surprised that it was somewhat similar to her own.
The pain was unbearable before menstruation, so the doctor took her pulse.
When asked about the two people's diet and daily life, Qiqin hesitated and couldn't explain clearly.
Fu Shiheng became anxious and drank her on the spot. Qiqin then cried and said that being given medicine by Luo Ruxue might have left the root cause of the disease.
The doctor suddenly realized that Fu Mingzhu and Qiqin had used the same sinister substance, that's why they were like this.
This is the scene where Fang brought Fu Mingzhu to the door.
Without saying a word, Fu Mingzhu stepped forward, grabbed Luo Ruxue's hair, and kicked her. Mrs. Fang was also helping.
Upon seeing this, Nanny Qian hurriedly went to find Yuan Shuyi. How could the old lady sit idly by and ignore her when she saw that her beloved granddaughter was being bullied? While pulling, I was hit by someone unknown, my head hit the corner of the table, and I fainted on the spot.
When Luo Ran arrived, Yuan Shuyi was standing in front of Fang's mother and daughter, her face pale, and she was obviously very angry.
Luo Ruxue has long since disappeared. Fu Mingzhu was still shouting: "You Luo family are bullying others too much! If I don't kill that bitch today, none of you will be able to live well!"
"What my sister said is wrong."
Luo Ran said.
When Yuan Shuyi saw her coming, he quickly stepped forward: "You're here!"
Luo Ran held her hand, patted it comfortingly, turned to look at Fang and her daughter, and said with a slight blessing: "Mother."
"who are you……"
"Pearl!"
Fu Mingzhu just opened her mouth, but Fang stopped her. She turned her head and took Luo Ran's hand and said sadly: "Boss, wife, it's not that your mother doesn't give you this face, it's the Luo family that has gone too far!"
Luo Ran looked puzzled: "Mother, where did you start talking about this? What did the Champion House do to make you and your sister unhappy?"
Fu Mingzhu snorted coldly: "Stop pretending to be a good person here! Luo Ruxue is your sister, I don't believe you don't know what she did!"
Luo Ran smiled: "So my sister is talking about Ruxue. But the second uncle is the second uncle, and the father is the father. If there is any misunderstanding between mother and sister, they should be the second roommate. Why are you still making such a fuss here?"
Mrs. Fang saw her talking to her parents and let go of her hand coldly.
