When Xue Tang arrived at Taotie Tower, Mu Xian had been waiting at the door for a long time.
After welcoming the person into the private room, Mu Xian said anxiously: "Qin Yuan wants to invite you to the banquet."
Xue Tang paused and said calmly: "Okay, ask him to send the invitation to the house."
Mu Xian shook his head, "Qin Yuan is looking for you now, and it's definitely not good."
"It doesn't matter. I just took the opportunity to figure out the purpose behind him." Xue Tang looked calm, as if this was just an ordinary drinking party.
After she went to Weiyuan last time, she never mentioned Weiyuan again, and Qin Yuan just wanted to test whether she had discovered anything, or if there was any new conspiracy that he could not wait to use against her, but no matter what it was, These were the breakthroughs she was waiting for.
Mu Xian looked at Xue Tang's expression and wondered for a moment whether she really had a plan, or whether she didn't know that shopping malls were like battlefields with hidden murderous intentions.
But it doesn't matter, the general is not here, and there are still him and Qin Lu.
Although Qin Lu's brain is not very good and he is far behind him, his martial arts is not bad. With his brain and Qin Lu's martial arts, he will definitely not go wrong.
Mu Xian stood in front of the window and glanced downstairs. He seemed to have seen something and smiled slightly, "Madam, let's deal with this matter first?"
Xue Tang: "Okay!"
She came today not to see Weiyuan's accounts, but to meet Shangguan Xun.
Shangguan Xun did not exchange greetings after entering the room, but said directly: "I have brought a reward to the general's wife."
When he said this, his expression was a little subtle.
"Why did Lord Shangguan say this?" Xue Tang asked calmly as he sat there.
Shangguan Xun didn't care that Xue Tang didn't stand up to greet him, but took out two banknotes from his sleeve pocket and asked Qiudie to hand them over to Xue Tang.
"These one thousand taels are Madam Qin's reward for helping Jingzhao Mansion solve the case this time. Following Madam's prompts, I carefully interrogated the old Gu master and confirmed that he had helped a group of people to abduct women and children before. Madam gave it to Emeishan The knights wrote to ask for help. This time our government and martial arts cooperated and uncovered the hideouts of many high-end people in Dajing. Originally, I wanted to ask His Majesty for a commendation decree, but I think Mrs. Qin may prefer silver notes. So I took it upon myself to ask for this reward from His Majesty."
At the Qin family's banquet last time, he saw a flash of disappointment on Xue Tang's face when he received the imperial edict. Thinking about this person who spent money like water before, he guessed that Xue Tang must like money.
Xue Tang smiled a little this time, stood up, took the banknote, and bowed slightly, "Thank you, Sir Shangguan. If Sir Shangguan doesn't mind, you can just call me Xue Tang, which is more smooth than Mrs. Qin."
Shangguan Xun: "Haha, okay. I didn't announce your help in solving the case to the public, just because I was worried that some people in the world or secret forces would be detrimental to you."
Xue Tang: "Sir Shangguan has thought carefully, but in fact there is no need to worry so much. The Qin family is a general. If I am afraid of mere secret forces, it will really be a disgrace to the lintel."
After hearing this, Mr. Shangguan, who was in his prime, not only no longer disliked Xue Tang, but also admired him even more.
Moreover, the way Xue Tang treated Qin Mingyue at the banquet that day and the way he handed over the case to Wei Shengmiao at his home were straightforward enough, a bit like his demeanor when he was on the battlefield.
He actually had the feeling of regretting seeing each other too late.
He thought that he was an official of the imperial court and should not have such hasty thoughts, but when Xue Tang said "general", he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.
Why did you use Qin Mingrui's affairs to plot against Xue Tang? Those things don't exist at all!
Soon, people started eating melon again in the streets and alleys, and everyone was very excited this time.
"It turns out that Xue Tang showed up at Wei Shengmiao's house to help solve the case."
"But isn't she worried about being retaliated against?"
"Use your brain. She is the general's wife. Who dares to retaliate against her? It's those villains who are worried about being approached by the Qin family."
"I really didn't expect that Mrs. Qin really didn't take Wei Shengmiao seriously. All she cares about are the important matters of the country and the people. This is what a general's wife should be like."
"This is the example for ladies from big families to follow."
Xue Tang herself also listened to these gossips, but at the end, she felt that there was a hint of politics. She must be some royal force secretly setting the pace.
Shangguan Xun wiped his sweat silently in the dark. It's not easy for him to be a governor. The people must not know that he also carries out cultural propaganda according to orders.
Duan family.
Duan Jingchen sat in the study and listened to the boy's report.
Duan Jingchu stuck his head out of the door and asked, "Brother, have you heard about the rumors outside?"
Duan Jingchen: "I'm not deaf, of course I can hear."
Duan Jingchu blinked and lowered his voice and asked, "So, you asked someone to go to Qin's house to deliver a post and wanted to visit, but Mrs. Qin refused again?"
Duan Jingchen was furious and glanced sideways at Duan Jingchu.
Duan Jingchu winced and quickly rubbed oil on his soles.
Duan Jingchen sat in the study for a while and called the secret guard to give some instructions in a low voice.
If Wei Shengmiao's incident hadn't happened, Yuan Weiming's shrinking turtle would never have emerged from the water. This time, even if the Si family doesn't kill Yuan Weiming, he will kill that bastard.
In prison.
The eyes of Wei Shengmiao and Yuan Weiming Xiji gradually dimmed.
Si Wei was worried that there would be extraneous problems, so he detoxified Wei Shengmiao and Yuan Weiming's poison at Wei Shengmiao's house.
After the two were imprisoned, Shangguan Xun made special instructions to imprison them together so that Yuan Weiming could take care of his woman and children.
When they heard that Xue Tang might be retaliated against, they gritted their teeth and thought: Those evildoers had better go find Xue Tang together and let the woman suffer. But after hearing what happened, their hopes were extinguished.
It's because they forgot how powerful the Qin family is. Even without Qin Huangyuan, there are still many people secretly helping the Qin family. Now the Si family has begun to defend Xue Tang.
Si Fangyun's servant was sitting there reading the gossip outside one by one, those who scolded Wei Shengmiao and Yuan Weiming, those who made wanton propaganda of Mr. Mingshu, and those who praised Xue Tang for his good work, all of them Nothing was missed.
The boy suddenly paused, looked at Wei Shengmiao and asked, "Miss Wei Shengmiao, are you feeling bad?"
Hope appeared in Wei Shengmiao's eyes, and she raised her head to look at the other person, acting particularly weak and pitiful in order to elicit sympathy from the other person.
"My stomach hurts, can you help me?"
When Yuan Weiming saw this scene, he gritted his teeth and cursed, "Bitch!"
Wei Shengmiao's appearance was very attractive to men. He knew that Wei Shengmiao's betrayal at this moment completely crushed his dignity.
It was a hundred times more painful for him now than when Si Fangyun cleaned up those outer rooms before him.
Wei Shengmiao hated Yuan Weiming even more, so she didn't care about Yuan Weiming's reaction.
Her child is very strong and is still alive and well after being frightened and poisoned.
Now she wished she could slide her tires.
The Si family has completely severed ties with Yuan Weiming. Yuan Weiming is now in prison with her. The child has lost its value and has become a burden to her.
She looked through the railing at the boy opposite with tears in her eyelashes.
The young man stood up slowly and smiled slightly, "My master said that Mrs. Weisheng should enjoy the time when her man is by her side every day."
After saying that, the boy left without any regrets.
The last hope was shattered, and Wei Shengmiao collapsed on the ground.
Yuan Weiming laughed loudly from the side.
Wei Shengmiao turned around and glared at him fiercely, "You trash, even Si Fangyun doesn't want you anymore, how can you have the nerve to laugh at me?"
"What did you say? I'm going to kill you!"
The two of them actually struggled together.
The jailers immediately went in, separated the men, and pinned them to the ground.
Yuan Weiming and Wei Shengmiao never imagined that today would happen. They had no hope.
If they had known this, they should not have had any evil thoughts and should not have gone to Xue Tang...
