"If the old minister's daughter colludes with the Ninth Prince, then what kind of heart does the old minister have against the emperor? Isn't this his frame-up?"
"Your Majesty, I can tell you how much I feel about you. I will marry my daughter to Mr. Wu. I didn't expect Mr. Wu to be such a person. Please let me make the decision for you."
Now that the two of them hold different opinions, Shen Zhongbai doesn't know who to believe. After all, he doesn't know the truth of the matter, but he can't lose the support of the two.
In fact, a daughter is nothing to Qin Liangping, but now that everyone outside knows it, he has to ask for an explanation, otherwise people outside will definitely say something bad about his Qin family.
The Qin family had been wronged in this matter, and they really wanted to give Qin Liangping an explanation.
Shen Zhongbai thought that since there were no witnesses yet, he could leave it to others to investigate the matter. As long as there were no losses for both parties in the end, it would be much easier to handle.
"Let's do this. No witnesses have appeared yet. This matter will be left to the Prime Minister to deal with first. After the matter is found out, I will give you the results."
Although what he said didn't make sense, everyone still understood the obvious shirk.
After all, no one can handle this matter well. It is a state matter and a family matter. If one person does not handle it well, it will make both parties indifferent, so it is difficult for Shen Zhongbai to judge.
However, as long as Shen Zhongbai does not protect Wu Dequan during the trial, Qin Liangping will feel much better.
After everyone left, Wu Dequan was left behind.
"Is what you just said true?" Shen Zhongbai asked
"Back to the emperor, what I just said were all lies." Shen Zhongbai misunderstood, and he hurriedly explained, "The reason why I told lies is because I found out that my wife Qin was colluding with the Ninth Prince, and I was angry. Would do something stupid like that.”
"You said your wife colluded with the Ninth Prince, is there any evidence?"
Speaking of evidence, Wu Dequan thought of the note Luya gave him before, and then he went to see the set of jewelry, which belonged to the Gu family.
"Yes, Chen's wife likes to buy things in a jewelry store, which is Gu Huai'an's store. She often asks someone to deliver jewelry. Wei Chen found out that the person is from the Ninth Prince."
The person was indeed Shen Qianshan's person, but he had not conducted any investigation.
"You mean, Mr. Qin is a member of the Ninth Prince?" Shen Zhongbai asked.
"Back to your lord, I don't know if Mr. Qin is a servant of the Ninth Prince, but I don't allow traitors around me." Wu Dequan said very respectfully.
Shen Zhongbai knew his character very well, but he also knew Qin Liangping very well. They must have been framed, leaving him with only one choice between them.
But is he the kind of person who only wants one person
"Master Wu, I want to ask you a favor."
Hearing the request, Wu Dequan was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, just give your orders. I will not give up even if I die."
"I want you to take care of today's affairs."
"This..." Wu Dequan was a little embarrassed.
He finally defended himself, and now he was asked to win today's crime, which made him a little confused.
Seeing his intention, Shen Zhongbai made a tactful expression: "I know I have wronged you, but if you don't do it, Mr. Qin will pursue this matter relentlessly, so that you can do what I asked you to do." If it cannot be completed, I will lose one person to support me in the court."
"And Master Qin just wants an explanation. If you agree, Master Qin won't do anything to you. It's just a feud between the two families. Since you doubt the Qin family, it's better not to have any contact with each other."
Shen Zhongbai had already thought about all Wu Dequan's options, and he knew that Wu Dequan would agree.
"I am confused." Wu Dequan suddenly became enlightened.
After leaving the imperial study, Wu Dequan returned home. Tai wanted to hire someone to go to Yishuanglou to kill Mrs. Wu and Lu Ya, but no one was willing to take his order.
No matter how much money he offered, no one was willing.
She immediately understood why Yishuanglou had always existed and never collapsed. It turned out that the snobbery behind it was so powerful.
Listening Pavilion.
"I just got the news that Wu Dequan wants to hire someone to go to Yishuanglou to kill Mrs. Wu."
When Gu Huai'an heard the news, he couldn't help but clicked his tongue. After all, the person he had been sleeping with for so many years would sell it on the spur of the moment and kill him on the spur of the moment. Fortunately, they did not accept such a person.
"The people around Shen Zhongbai really look like him." Gu Qiang couldn't help but mocked.
She will never forget Shen Zhongbai's use of all means for his own benefit, treating everyone as a pawn.
"Should we tell Qin Liangping about this?"
Gu Huaian said with a bad smile. As long as he thought about the two people around Shen Zhongbai who would bite him in the next few days, he would feel inexplicably happy.
And they also guessed what Shen Zhongbai and Wu Dequan said between them, which should be to ask Wu Dequan to admit this crime.
As long as they instigate the relationship between Qin Liangping and Shen Zhongbai, they will have one more spy next to Shen Zhongbai.
At night, a woman covered in blood anxiously knocked on the door of Qin Mansion.
The gatekeeper was shocked when he saw her appearance and hurriedly called Qin Liangping.
"Who are you? Why do you appear in my Qin Mansion?" Qin Liangping asked, looking at the person in front of him.
As soon as the woman saw him, she knelt down and said with blurred tears: "Master, please save the young lady. An assassin has come to Shuangshuanglou to kill the young lady. Fortunately, the people in Yishuanglou are very skilled in martial arts, otherwise the young lady would have been killed." .”
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Qin Liangping recognized that this was Lu Ya, the maid who had been beside Mrs. Wu before.
"Then how did you get here?"
"It was Yi Shuanglou's mother who called this slave. She said she was no longer willing to take the young lady in, and asked you to take her back. If you don't take her back, she also asked you to deal with Wu Dequan so as not to cause trouble to Yi Shuanglou. "
Qin Liangping will definitely not take his daughter back again. After all, this is a shameful thing.
"How did she know it was someone sent by Wu Dequan?" Qin Liangping asked doubtfully.
"Mom said that after Wu Dequan came out of the palace, he hired people everywhere to kill the young lady. She also said that it was because the emperor wanted him to admit the matter first, and then he would be promoted to a higher position than you when he had merit. Then you can You can't bully him anymore, but if you admit it, you should be charged with a lighter sentence. As long as Miss Jiang's accusation of killing him is vaguely untrue, you won't be able to do anything about him then. "
Lu Ya's words made Qin Liangping furious. He did not expect that the emperor, to whom he had always been sincere, would abandon him for such a person. It seemed that Shen Zhongbai did not regard him as sincere.
"This is just your one-sided statement. How could I easily believe it? Go back." Qin Liangping turned and left without even looking at her.
"Master, please save this slave, please save the young lady." Lu Ya kept kowtowing, begging Qin Liangping, but Qin Liangping did not look back.
Today's Japan was designed by Shen Qianshan and others. For the sake of authenticity, they sent someone to take Wu Dequan's order and went to Yishuanglou.
It's just that Yishuanglou is Shen Qianshan's territory, so the play is only for outsiders to watch.
This matter is very secretive. People outside don't know it, but as long as someone is interested, it can still be found out.
The next day, Lu Ya's body appeared at Qin Liangping's door. Because it was so obvious, many people came to watch.
Because Lu Ya's face was covered with blood, he couldn't see the face clearly. He was already very embarrassed because of Mrs. Wu's incident. If something happens again, he will lose his old face.
"Master Qin, I wonder if this person is from your house?" Jingzhao Prefecture Yin asked.
He feels that he has been really busy recently. Either people died in front of the Lingyin Pavilion or in front of the Qin Mansion. He has not yet solved the case in front of the Lingyin Pavilion.
"This maid belongs to my house. Because she stole and stayed with others, I sent someone to beat her to death."
Hearing such words, Liu Ruqing breathed a sigh of relief. Since it was someone else's family matter, he naturally had nothing to do with it and left with the others.
The world is very disdainful of these things, so no one cares about it anymore.
Wu Dequan got the news and knew that Lu Ya was dead but Mrs. Wu was not dead, and he felt a little disappointed.
He originally wanted to go to Yishuanglou to kill Mrs. Wu, but was warned by Shen Zhongbai.
This made him suddenly feel frightened, and then he realized that he had done something wrong.
"Now Qin Liangping has sympathy for Shen Zhongbai, as long as we add fuel to the fire."
As Shen Qianshan said this, he swept through everyone in the room. When he saw Gu Qiang, he couldn't help but think of the suffering Gu Qiang had suffered during these days, and he wanted to scratch Shen Zhongbai alive.
"Shen Zhongbai must be protecting Wu Dequande now. As long as he sends someone to ask Qin Liangping to find Shen Zhongbai, they will definitely tell the story, and the relationship between the two will be completely broken."
"But who is going to talk about this?" Gu Qiang glanced at everyone.
Shen Qianshan suddenly thought of Rong Lian. Although he was very unhappy with him, it was most appropriate for him to go and talk about this matter.
"Rong Lian."
As soon as this was said, everyone thought it was okay.
When Chu Tiankuo brought Rong Lian over, Rong Lian saw Gu Qiang and pressed against him.
"Did you ask me to come? Do you miss me?"
His shamelessness made Gu Qiang want to beat him to death. Shen Qianshan had always been unwilling for Rong Lian to approach Gu Qiang, so he stopped Rong Lian whenever he approached Gu Qiang.
"I asked you to come." Shen Qianshan said coldly.
Rong Lian glanced at him and wanted to continue getting closer to Gu Qiang.
Unexpectedly, Gu Qiang covered her head and said, "I'm a little dizzy. You guys talk first, I'm leaving first."
After saying that, he ran away with his feet greased.
Rong Lian wanted to catch up but was caught by Gu Huaian.
"Didn't you hear my sister say she needs to rest?"
After looking at everyone in the room and seeing that he was outnumbered, Rong Lian asked, "Why did you call me here?"
"We want you to go to Qin Liangping and let him go to Shen Zhongbai to discuss Wu Dequan's assassination of Mrs. Wu." Chu Tiankuo said.
