She is quite calculating when it comes to using other people's children to save her own.
Chen Anning sarcastically said: "Grandma just said that for a wealthy family like the Guangling Palace, the most important thing is their face. If they lose face, it will be difficult for me to move forward after I get married. Grandma asked me to use the child to blackmail Mr. Xie to save my father. When you were there, didn’t you ever think about making them lose face?”
Mrs. Chen said angrily: "Then you can't just watch your father die!"
Chen Anning asked, "Why not?"
"Evil!" Mrs. Chen pointed at her nose and cursed, "He is your father!"
"So what?" Chen Anning said indifferently, "I just watched him die, and I didn't ask him to die. When I came to the capital, you beat me, scolded me, and tortured me with your own hands. .”
"You are in the first year of junior high school, why can't I be in the fifteenth year?"
"In the final analysis, I learned this from you when I am so heartless and heartless."
Mrs. Chen shouted: "He is your father!"
"If he hadn't been my father," Chen Anning looked at her calmly and said, "do you think he would be alive today?"
Grandma who was supporting Mrs. Chen subconsciously took a few steps back.
Mrs. Chen also took a few steps back in fright, and then said with an inward look: "Okay, if you are not willing to save your father, then I will wait and see if you will have a good life after marrying to the Guangling Prince's Mansion!"
Chen Anning nodded: "Grandma, just wait and see."
Mrs. Chen snorted coldly and helped her grandma away.
Chen Anning watched her through the window after she walked out of Qingzhiyuan, and then glanced back at the frightened maids, "They were all stunned to do what they were supposed to do. What are they worried about?"
The maids dispersed uneasily.
Chen Anning continued to prepare her medicinal ingredients.
The Chen family was surrounded.
The Guangling Palace remains the same as before.
Everyone is waiting for the emperor to cancel the imperial decree granting marriage to Chen Anning and Xie Xun.
Among them, the most urgent ones are undoubtedly Chen Ziling, Mrs. He Yibo, Zhao Ying and others.
After the eldest princess sent someone to Kaiyang Hou's Mansion to question Mrs. Kaiyang Hou and asked Chen Ziling to plot Chen Anning's intentions, Chen Ziling would be beaten and scolded if she made the slightest mistake every day. For this reason, Chen Ziling burned three sticks of incense every morning and evening. Pray for the emperor to cancel the marriage as soon as possible so that her reputation will be ruined!
Although Mrs. He Yibo and Zhao Ying are not as extreme as her, they still make sarcastic remarks every day.
But three days passed in a row.
There was no movement except increasingly outrageous speculation.
Until the fourth day.
Under the watchful eyes of the people who came to watch the excitement in front of Chen's house every day, the Yulin army withdrew as quickly as they arrived.
"What's going on? Why did you leave suddenly?"
"I don't know. Did something happen?"
"It must have been the Guangling Palace that took action."
"No! It was the two censors who impeached Miss Chen Er for instigating her father to secretly ask Lord Song for a huge bribe, as well as the step-by-step Xiong Ren and his parents who were arrested!"
"Master Xie has found out! Miss Chen Er was wrongly accused! The mastermind behind the wrongful accusation against Miss Chen Er is the steward of the Song Mansion. Sir Xie has already taken people to the Song Mansion to apprehend the steward!"
Chen Anning raised her eyebrows: The steward of the Song Mansion?
"Song Shizhong is so cunning!" Xu Zan said angrily, "Those letters written to you and your father were all written by the steward! The boy who came to deliver the letters was also the nephew of the steward! Song Shizhong said that he I don’t know anything, and the steward doesn’t know what kind of ecstasy was poured into his head. No matter how he interrogated me, he always said it was his idea.”
"He also said that he couldn't stand your arrogance, so he planned this to teach you a lesson."
"Fortunately, it's not all without gain." Wen Baolin, who came with Xu Zan, said, "After this incident, Song Shizhong knew that the situation was over, and he no longer dared to make any other moves. And Song Fu saw that Song Shizhong had no way to save him. , I finally couldn’t help but reveal some clues.”
Chen Anning asked: "What clue?"
Xu Zan rushed to say: "Song Fu is always bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. After the underground Colosseum was thrown into a pot, he was frightened and fainted. In the morning, when he saw that the manager of the Song Dynasty was also imprisoned, he was frightened again. I fainted. When I woke up, I started clamoring to see Ah Xun."
"I thought he met Ah Xun to reveal who were the masterminds of the underground Colosseum."
"In the end, he unexpectedly wanted to bribe Ah Xun."
Chen Anning asked with great interest: "How does he want to bribe Mr. Xie?"
"He is quite capable," Xu Zan pouted, "I don't know where I found out that Ah Xun likes BMWs, so I want to use seven bloody BMWs in exchange for his life."
Chen Anning looked at him and then at Wen Baolin, "Is there something wrong with those sweaty horses?"
Xu Zan did not address the question directly, but said: "Every September, the emperor will go for autumn hunting. In March last year, the emperor issued an order to Taipu Temple, asking them to have Tiele pay tribute to nine horses before July. In June In the second half of the year, Taipu Temple only paid tribute to three horses because they were hard to find."
Chen Anning took over the conversation: "Did Song Shizhong seize these seven horses privately?"
Xu Zan hummed: "After Tiele received the decree from Wei Dynasty asking for tribute of BMWs, he immediately sent ten BMWs. He was very courageous, and he actually withheld seven of the ten horses without permission!"
Looking at his stern expression, Chen Anning asked: "Besides these horses, are there any other problems?"
Xu Zan hummed again: "After Song Fu said that he would give seven sweat-blooded horses in exchange for his life, Ah Xun felt that there was something wrong with these horses. Under his questioning, Song Fu had to explain the origin of these horses and Song Shizhong's ring control. The issue of raising private horses in the imperial pasture.”
"Later, when Ah Xun asked him to provide evidence to prove that what he said was true, in order to protect himself, he had to confess that the death of Cao Dian, the former chief registrar of Taipu Temple, and Cen Yuanzhi, the recorder, were due to the discovery of Song Shizhong After occupying the imperial pasture to raise private horses, when he planned to report him, he was discovered by Song Shizhong, who then killed two people."
"Whether it is the occupation of the imperial pasture to raise private horses, or the death of the former chief secretary and recorder, the relationship is very important. Ah Xun has to go to the palace to report to the emperor, so I asked Baolin and I to come over and tell you so that you can prepare for the start. Preparation of coffin for autopsy.”
The case of the boy and girl can be said to be about making money.
The nature of enclosing the court's pasture to raise one's own horses is completely different.
One or two horses, or even twenty or thirty horses, do not need to be occupied. At most, they can only be regarded as a win.
If you can use the word "Shangquanzhan", then there are hundreds of horses at least.
Why does a young minister from Taipusi raise so many horses?
Is it just to make money selling horses?
Chen Anning nodded thoughtfully: "I understand."
Seeing that she was busy, Xu Zan and Wen Baolin didn't bother her too much. After chatting for a few more words about the missing boy and girl, they got up and left.
As soon as he walked out of Qingzhiyuan, he met Mr. Qiu who was coming over.
