When Mrs. Qiao Er saw everyone around her pointing fingers at her, she couldn't help it anymore and said in a sharp voice, "Don't listen to her nonsense here. It's all made up out of nothing. Let me tell you, if you slander my Jingyang family again, , I will take you to see the official!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a group of official officers coming not far away, heading towards the Qiao family.
Seeing Mrs. Qiao's second wife, the leading official said loudly, "Who is the second Mrs. Qiao's family?"
When Ya'er Niang saw the official official, she immediately stood up, pointed at Mrs. Qiao and said, "Master Guan, that's her!"
The official glanced at Mrs. Qiao with an eyebrow, nodded and said, "Three families have jointly filed a petition, saying that their daughter was abused by Qiao Jingyang. Come, Mrs. Qiao, you must come with us to the government office."
Hearing this, Mrs. Qiao's body suddenly softened. Just when she was about to speak, she heard the officer say, "Yes, wherever Qiao Jingyang is, he must go with him!"
After that, the official ignored Mrs. Qiao's obstruction, pushed her away, and walked directly into the door of Qiao's house.
The one who was watching the excitement helped Ya'er Niang up and comforted her, "The official is here. From our point of view, you should also sue the Qiao family together so that you can seek justice for your daughter!"
The uncles who came with Ya'er's mother also came forward and said, "Yes, yes, otherwise we wouldn't even have money to bury this child!"
Ya'er Niang looked back at her unrecognizable daughter lying in the coffin, and couldn't help crying again. While crying, she shouted, "My poor son, who ever wanted to send you to work, but actually sent you to work?" The point of no return!"
It was miserable outside the gate, and it wasn't much better inside.
Before the official arrived at Qiao Jingyang's yard, he heard the wailing of the woman inside. The officer's heart tightened, and he immediately ran over in three steps and kicked open the closed door.
The room was in a mess, with a strong smell of blood. A woman was kneeling on the ground in ragged clothes. The naked man behind her was laughing crazily, lowering his head and biting her hard. From time to time, it makes wild beast-like noises.
Xing'er couldn't help but scream in pain, and Qiao Jingyang's movements even pulled the injury on her board, making her whole body feel more and more like it was being burned on a raging fire.
When Qiao Jingyang saw that she was not cooperating, he immediately cut her arm behind her back. There was a crisp sound and her arm was broken!
When the official came in, he saw this beastly behavior. The leader rushed over and pulled Qiao Jingyang up.
However, this lunatic's strength was so great that instead of dragging Guan Cha, he was thrown away by Qiao Jingyang. Qiao Jingyang was dissatisfied that his actions were interrupted, so he immediately waved Xing'er and threw him aside.
Hearing only a dull hum, Xing'er hit the pillar and fell down softly.
Fortunately, other officials also came in. Seeing Qiao Jingyang resisting, they immediately swarmed him. Several people worked together to subdue him and pin him firmly to the ground.
The leading official glanced at Qiao Jingyang with disgust, then waved his hand, "Take him away!"
Mrs. Qiao Er also arrived at this time, hurriedly took out the jewelry box and said with a smile, "Dear officials, you can use this money to go to the bar."
When the official saw what she was giving him, he took it without changing his expression and said, "Mrs. Qiao Er is interested, but you still have to come with us and take it away!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Qiao screamed immediately, but was caught by the officers and taken to the lobby of Jingzhao Prefecture.
Along the way, people had already spread the word, and it didn't take long for the matter to expand countless times. Some people who couldn't stand it took out eggs and smashed them at Mrs. Qiao. She couldn't dodge, and egg juice suddenly dripped from her head.
Qiao Jingyang actually thought it was fun, so he stretched out his hand and rubbed Mrs. Qiao's face hard, clapped her hands and said, "It's fun!"
After arriving in the lobby of Jingzhao Prefecture, the families who had been persecuted by Qiao Jingyang were already kneeling in the lobby waiting for them. Ya'erniang looked at Qiao Jingyang with hatred on her face.
Ya'er's coffin had been carried back by her uncles. Although she couldn't see her daughter's miserable condition, the scene kept lingering in her mind, making her wish she could tear Qiao Jingyang and her son to pieces right now!
This lawsuit lasted from morning to dusk. Finally, the Jingzhao Yin Mansion directly made a decision, "Qiao Jingyang is mentally retarded, extremely dangerous, and has harmed innocent lives. He will be imprisoned in the sky prison."
Hearing this, Mrs. Qiao immediately kowtowed and said, "Master Qingtian, it is true that Jingyang is mentally ill. From now on, the women will definitely take good care of him. Please forgive him for his life!"
Qiao Jingyang on the side had no idea what was going on, but he was tightly controlled by the official, and he wanted to break free from time to time, roaring like a wild beast.
At this moment, I suddenly heard the Qiao family's eldest brother arriving outside in a hurry. Mrs. Qiao cried quickly as if she was looking at a savior, "Sister-in-law, please help me, don't let them lock up Jingyang!"
Unexpectedly, the eldest wife of the Qiao family knelt down with a bang and said loudly, "Master Qingtian, our Qiao family are all good people. We must not let a pest ruin the reputation of my Qiao family. Please, eldest master Mingjian, lock up Qiao Jingyang!"
The second wife of the Qiao family was originally very fond of her, but after hearing what Mrs. Qiao said, she immediately collapsed on the ground, pointed at her and said, "You are so cruel!"
Mrs. Qiao said without changing her expression, "Brothers and sisters, please be patient. Jingyang is like this now. Staying here will be a drag. We are not separated, so we have to think about the whole family!"
"You guys, you are so cruel! I usually treat the big house very well, and you, Qiao Ziyun, why don't you say a word of help?" Mrs. Qiao finished scolding Mrs. Qiao and pointed her finger at Mrs. Qiao. Qiao Ziyun stood aside and watched the excitement.
Qiao Ziyun was not stupid. It was too late for her to watch the show. How could she help Mrs. Qiao? She immediately picked her off cleanly. "My daughter's family can't force herself to stand out. I'm sorry for my second aunt."
Hearing this, Mrs. Qiao suddenly said sternly, "You guys are so heartless!" After saying that, she turned back and kowtowed, "Master Qingtian clearly knows that it is true that Jingyang accidentally maimed the maid, but there is also Qiao Ziyun in this." Under the instructions of the police officer, she personally sent the maid next to her to Jingyang's room for Jingyang to play with. Otherwise, how could the personal maid of the eldest daughter of the Qiao family be maimed in my son's room? "
Qiao Ziyun immediately argued, "No, sir, I didn't!"
"No? Qiao Ziyun, don't forget that among the three maids who were maimed, two are maids in your Miss Qiao's yard. It's useless for you to deny this matter!" Qiao Er After the lady finished speaking, she kowtowed again and said, "Master Qingtian, please enlighten me!"
The Yin of the Jingzhao Prefecture was also unambiguous. He immediately sent someone to the house of the disabled maid to inquire. Not long after, the official returned and reported truthfully, "Go back to the master, what the second lady of the Qiao family said is true. Those two The maid was indeed taken to Qiao Jingyang's room by Miss Qiao."
As soon as these words came out, Qiao Ziyun immediately collapsed on the ground and cried, "Master, please spare my life!"
This time, it was the eldest son of the Qiao family who kept kowtowing and begging for mercy. Mrs. Qiao laughed so hard that she burst into tears. Then she hugged Qiao Jingyang, who couldn't help clapping her hands, and cried, "My miserable son!"
The governor of Jingzhao coughed slightly, and then said majestically, "Qiao Ziyun has a vicious temperament. He allows his brother to harm others. He will be punished with thirty rods! Qiao Jingyang beat the maid to death because she was mentally retarded and was imprisoned in a heavenly prison. She will never be released! As for these few A maid who was killed and maimed by the Qiao family, the injured will be compensated one hundred taels of silver, the deceased will be compensated two hundred, and she will withdraw from the court!"
This case made a fuss in Jingzhao Prefecture for a full day, and spread vigorously in teahouses in the capital for more than a month.
After Qiao Ziyun was beaten, she became a laughing stock in the capital. Even the people who came to propose marriage withdrew and stayed away, let alone anyone who proposed marriage.
As soon as this incident came out, the Qiao family was completely disgraced in the capital, and even their business plummeted, never to be the same as before.
Xie Ruzhuo took a sip of tea and listened to Qianbi proudly telling jokes he had heard from Beijing, and finally said, "Then Qiao Ziyun deserves it. In the past, I have seen her look like a scheming person. Who would have thought she could be so vicious?" , you actually gave the maid as a plaything to a fool, it’s so abominable!”
Jiang Zhu on the side covered her mouth and snickered, "Look, our Qianbi is starting to fight for others again."
Xie Ruzhuo picked up a cup of tea, handed it to Qianbi, and echoed, "No, thanks to your lady, I'm not the kind of person who does all kinds of evil."
Seeing that all the maids in the room started laughing, Qianbi didn't take it seriously. She just drank a few sips of tea and then said with a smile, "If you ask me, the unknown hero deserves the most credit for this matter. If she hadn’t found her daughter’s body for Ya’er’s mother, I’m afraid other families wouldn’t have the courage to sue the Qiao family.”
Xie Ruzhuo just pursed his lips and smiled, without saying much, and let the other maids turn to other topics.
She asked Wen Ruyu to help find the corpse. The Qiao family hurriedly threw the person into a mass grave that day. Thanks to Wen Ruyu's people, who included people from all walks of life, they were able to find and return a corpse.
Later, it was her plan. First, she borrowed the name of Xiao Junxi to deliver a message to the governor of Jingzhao, not allowing them to engage in favoritism. Then she used money to target the common people and asked them to submit the petition, and then there was Later this drama.
In the final analysis, the Qiao family has brought it upon itself, and it is pity for those girls who, at such a young age, have been ruined for the rest of their lives!
A pigeon cooed outside the window, and Qian Bi immediately ran over, carefully picked up the pigeon, untied the letter tied to its leg, and handed it to Xie Ruzhuo.
Xie Ruzhuo took it, sighed first, and then said in the playful eyes of several girls, "Go, go, everyone, go out, what are you doing around here!"
Hearing this, the maids looked at each other and smiled, then went out, leaving Xie Ruzhuo alone.
There were still a few words in the letter, but there was a hint of intimacy in the words, "The late autumn chill is coming, and I am a little weaker than usual. Thanks to the medicinal food Zhuo'er sent me a few days ago, I am very grateful. Don’t worry about things outside yourself, everything is settled, be safe and take care of it.”
Although Xiao Junxi did not go out in the palace, she knew everything about the outside world. Xie Ruzhuo only read the letter and knew that he was afraid that he would be upset by the Qiao family's affairs, so he wrote to comfort her. However, if he knew that she was actually controlling these things behind the scenes, would he still be like this
Xie Ruzhuo suddenly didn't dare to think about it anymore.
After returning from the hunting ground, she had not seen Xiao Junxi again for more than a month. She had a chance to see him last time she entered the palace, but she didn't dare to see him.
