He has been opposed to his relationship with Gu Qiang since he was a child. Now that Gu Qiang is with Shen Qianshan, it is all his fault.
However, the purpose of his coming today was not to cause trouble for him. Now that Gu Qiang was in prison, he had trusted the two of them to rescue her before, but he didn't expect her to go to the clan mansion now. Compared to Da Lao Ruo, It would be difficult to rescue people from the clan's mansion.
What's more, Shen Zhongbai still harbors a grudge against Gu Qiang.
Rong Lian glanced sideways at Gu Huai'an and said to Shen Qianshan, "How do you plan to save Gu Qiang?"
"This is my king's business, it is not Lord Rong's turn to worry about it." Shen Qianshan responded coldly.
Thinking of the man in front of him who had been spying on Gu Qiang, he wanted to kill him, so that he could only care about his woman.
"I was the one who tipped you off about the person you were arresting just now. Don't be ungrateful."
What
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. The person they had been searching for for several days turned out to be the one Rong Lian had let out. Did he know that they were looking for that person a long time ago? Then will Shen Zhongbai also know
Rong Lian understood their thoughts and said calmly: "Shen Zhongbai doesn't know yet. He thought those people were dead."
His words not only failed to dispel the suspicion of several people, but also made them more vigilant.
"Is this what you came here to tell us today?" Gu Huaian asked.
"No, no." Rong Lian shook his head, turned to him and said, "I am here today to save Gu Qiang with you."
"We don't need you." As soon as he said these words, Shen Qianshan rejected him without hesitation.
Rong Lian was not angry, but smiled, "No, you need me."
In the disdainful eyes of everyone, Rong Lian said calmly: "You may have forgotten the witness who identified Gu Qiang. No one saw those thugs beating the beggar. Why did Gu Qiang... Didn’t he just happen to see me when I went to give him money?”
"Haven't you ever thought that the witness was not the real witness?"
They really didn't think about this. After all, they were not there at the time. They heard that many people saw it, so they didn't doubt it.
Looking at the thoughtful expressions of everyone, Rong Lian knew that they had not thought of that aspect.
"How did you know the situation at that time?" Shen Qianshan asked.
This is something he doesn't even know, why does he know it so clearly.
Rong Lian's eyes flashed, and he chuckled: "Because there is a servant in my house who happened to be nearby and saw all this process."
Although his words seemed to be perfect, Shen Qianshan still didn't believe what he said. He always felt that this matter was not that simple.
"However, if I help you, there is a condition that you must agree to."
No one spoke, waiting for what he would say next.
His red lips parted slightly, and he slowly said, "I want a chance to compete fairly with you, Gu Qiang."
"impossible."
"no."
Shen Qianshan and Gu Huaian's two voices came out at the same time.
"Why, isn't this deal the best deal for you?" Rong Lian asked doubtfully.
He just wanted a chance to win over Gu Qiang, wouldn't this work
"You go."
Shen Qianshan didn't give him any chance and drove him away directly.
No matter what, he would not trade Gu Qiang for anything.
Seeing that there was no room for negotiation, Rong Lian said no more, turned around and left Lingyin Pavilion.
Wu Mansion.
Wu Dequan has found out that Fang Qian is not from Mrs. Wu's natal family. He sent people to arrest Fang Qian, but learned that Fang Qian was not in the room. Wu Dequan felt that he had been set up and rushed to the palace overnight to see Shen Zhongbai.
Shen Zhongbai was furious after learning about this incident, but he still tried to endure it.
"What's your plan, Master Wu?"
Wu Dequan originally thought that Shen Zhongbai would be furious, but he didn't expect that Shen Zhongbai would just ask him how to deal with it next, and he suddenly felt that he had chosen the right master.
"Your Majesty, it seems to Yichen that they must have known about Gu Suran's situation and will surely come to rescue them."
"Why don't we let Gu Suran go, and then deal with them secretly when they can't figure out what we are going to do." After saying this, he paused and continued: "Of course, we can also drug Gu Suran to make her They are overwhelmed.”
After listening to his suggestion, Shen Zhongbai was very satisfied. Thinking of how Shen Qianshan would be defeated in his hands later, Shen Zhongbai felt extremely happy.
"In this case, let you do this, so as to give you a chance to make up for your mistakes."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After leaving the palace, Wu Dequan went directly to Mrs. Wu's room.
After all, it was Mrs. Wu who arranged for people to come in. She must have colluded with Shen Qianshan and the others to help them arrange for people to come in.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of Xin Na's concubine Lu Ya, who used to be her personal maid and had never allowed her to serve him. He had always trusted such a jealous woman.
It was still speculation at first, but now that Mrs. Wu's purpose for doing this is known, Wu Dequan naturally cannot keep Mrs. Wu.
Mrs. Wu, who was still sleeping, was suddenly pulled up from the bed by Wu Dequan. She was very confused. Although she was very angry, she did not dare to break out.
"Master, what's wrong with you? But who made you angry?"
Looking at the person in front of him who spent time with him day and night, the anger in his heart became even more intense.
"Tell me, who is the guard in front of the room you arranged?"
Seeing him talking about the guard, Mrs. Wu thought she had been caught spying on him, and she suddenly panicked. She pretended to be calm and asked: "Master, is that the person from my mother's family? Did he make any mistake?"
"Snapped."
Wu Dequan's slap was so loud that Mrs. Wu was stunned.
"A member of your mother's family? Did you know that he is a member of Shen Qianshan? You are a vicious woman. I didn't expect that you would join forces with Shen Qianshan to harm me. It's a shame that I have treated you so well these past few years."
His words immediately stunned Mrs. Wu. She asked in disbelief: "You said that guard is from Shen Qianshan?"
"I will still lie to you."
How could Wu Dequan, who was already furious, see the meaning of Mrs. Wu's desperate expression at this time? In his opinion, Mrs. Wu was just a tragic sign of things going wrong.
"No, I don't know. This is a person introduced by a maid in a jewelry shop. I really don't know that he is from Shen Qianshan."
In Wu Dequan's view, her excuses were just to clear away his own charges, but he would never believe her again.
"You poisonous woman, I will lock you into the woodshed now, and I will send someone to sell you tomorrow."
Mrs. Wu was very panicked. She really didn't know that person was from Shen Qianshan. The guard also told her the whereabouts of Wu Dequan. She always thought that the person was just an ordinary citizen.
"Master, master, I really don't know. I was also framed."
But no matter how she shouted, Wu Dequan did not waver at all. To him, one disloyalty was a hundred times disloyal, and there was no room for use again.
This matter caused a big fuss and spread throughout the Wu Mansion. All the concubines in the manor were happy. After all, if the wife died, they would have the opportunity to become the wife.
Early the next morning, as soon as Lu Ya got up, she saw a note on the table. She picked up the note and looked at it suspiciously. After seeing the content on it, she quickly put the note away in surprise.
After washing up, I went to find Wu Dequan.
When the other concubines heard the news that Lu Ya went to find Wu Dequan, they quickly regretted it and let her snatch the opportunity to show off in front of Wu Dequan.
Lu Ya came to Wu Dequan's room and looked at Wu Dequan who had gotten up early in the morning to practice martial arts. Her heart was full of admiration for the man in front of her.
Thinking of the purpose of her coming, she quickly called: "Master."
Seeing Lu Ya, Wu Dequan will think of Mrs. Wu's betrayal, and his attitude towards Lu Ya will become much colder.
Lu Ya knew the reason, but she didn't care and handed the note in her hand to Wu Dequan.
"Sir, this is evidence that Madam colluded with outsiders."
Wu Dequan took the note with confusion, which read clearly in black and white:
Yinlingge jewelry is made by the Gu family.
After seeing the above message, I thought that Mrs. Wu had always gone to that store before. The stores where she went to buy things had been investigated, and all the purchases were from fixed stores.
It turns out that this was all a trick she had played on him.
Wu Dequan's clenched fists, livid face, and gloomy eyes exuded bloodthirsty light. This was the first time Lu Ya saw him like this, and she was immediately frightened and took a few steps back unconsciously.
"Where did you get it?" Wu Dequan, who had recovered, grabbed Lu Ya's hand and asked.
Lu Ya definitely couldn't say that the note came to her desk on its own, as this would be very suspicious.
"I sent someone to investigate this."
After saying that, Wu Dequan did not speak, but stared at her closely.
Luya was startled by his eyes, but had nowhere to escape.
Wu Dequan knew that Lu Ya didn't tell the truth. Even if she told the truth, he couldn't believe it. After all, what ability did a maid have to hire someone to investigate? What's more, a store that he hadn't even discovered was easily discovered by her.
"I understand, you go back first."
Wu Dequan let go of Lu Ya's hand. Lu Ya felt relieved that he had escaped from the Palace of Hell.
Things in the Wu Mansion have been suppressed, but Shen Qianshan and the others are fully aware that the Wu Mansion is in chaos now. Once Mrs. Wu dies, Wu Dequan will no longer have the support of Mrs. Wu’s natal family, and there are few people around him who can be trusted. of people.
"Tomorrow we will take Zhang Qiang to go before the emperor." Chu Tiankuo suggested.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and they also felt that tomorrow would be the most suitable day.
In order to ensure that everything went smoothly, Shen Qianshan also visited Zhang Qiang in person.
Zhang Qiang's life was much better than when he came here. He had food, drink and protection. He didn't have to live in fear. He longed in his heart that it would be like this forever.
