Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 246 Guarjia Prefecture

Speaking of this, Yixiu smiled as she squinted her eyes and warmed herself by the fire, "I will only be busy for a while. When Concubine Nian is out of confinement, she will be able to share my worries."

After these words came out, who else in the room could laugh except Yixiu? Although Jianqiu and the others felt sorry for Yixiu's hard work, they didn't want Yixiu's authority to be taken away by Nian Shilan!

Yixiu looked at the people flirting with amusement, and finally Huichun stood up and said unhappily, "Why should Concubine Nian interfere in the affairs of the mansion?" Their master was the legitimate wife of Prince Yong.

"Since the prince has agreed, Concubine Nian naturally has the right to intervene." Yixiu said nonchalantly. Anyway, the Fourth Prince didn't dare to offend Jiang Chen, so the power given to Nian Shilan would not be too great.

Jianqiu said indignantly, "This is the master's authority, how can the prince do this!" Even if Concubine Nian lost her child, she cannot share the master's power!

Yixiu made a rough guess that in addition to comforting Nian Shilan, the Fourth Prince was becoming suspicious again.

Although Yixiu kept procrastinating on the matter of Nian Shilan, as if she knew nothing, the Fourth Prince felt that Yixiu might know something. However, he did not want Yixiu to really know anything, so he wanted to help Nian Shilan and cause trouble for Yixiu.

With the contradictory look of the Fourth Prince, who would not say that he and Concubine De are mother and son! In the previous life, Yixiu helped to prepare the abortion medicine, and the Fourth Prince thought Yixiu was cruel; in this life, Yixiu did not get involved, and the Fourth Prince felt that Yixiu was not in the same mind as him and his wife. Those who don't know would think that the Mao Dun Literature Prize was founded by the Fourth Prince.

"Your Highness will not fail to consider my feelings. When the time comes, just throw away the most complicated work, and we can relax a bit." Yixiu comforted the maids.

Seeing Yixiu's attitude, Jianqiu didn't want to show her worry, so she walked along the steps and said, "Then we servants must choose carefully, and make sure that Concubine Nian is so tired that she can't sleep all night."

The atmosphere improved and everyone began to discuss excitedly what tasks should be assigned to Nian Shilan.

But the place in Guaerjia Prefecture was filled with sadness. After receiving the letter and the jade pendant, the pancake stall did not dare to delay for a moment and delivered the letter to Guaerjia Prefecture as soon as it closed the stall.

Lord Guaerjia had a bad feeling when he saw the jade pendant his daughter was wearing. This jade pendant was owned by Emin and Xuantong respectively. They were made from the same piece of jade. They were carefully carved and blessed by Master Puji of the Fahua Temple. They are peace pendants used to ensure safety.

The jade pendant was sent to Lord Guaerjia. What happened to Guaerjia? Lord Guaerjia opened the letter anxiously and read the first part quickly. His eyes stopped at the last exhortation written by Guaerjia. He wiped away his tears with his hand and said, "What an unfilial daughter!" She actually left her parents in the world like this.

Lord Guaerjia asked for leave and waited for news at home, although he hoped that there would be no news. But the facts could not be changed by human will, and people from Prince Yong's mansion still came to the door.

Jianqiu had a sad look on her face and politely told Lord Guaerjia, Lady Guaerjia and Emin about Guaerjia's suicide.

Then the reception room fell into a long silence. Finally, Lord Guaerjia forced himself to cheer up and asked Jianqiu, "I wonder where my unfilial daughter is buried?" There must be a place to burn paper in the future.

"My wife plans to hold a funeral for Princess Guaerjia before burying her, but the location has not yet been decided," Jianqiu explained.

Mrs. Guaerjia asked hurriedly, "Can you let me come to your house to pay my respects?" She didn't know that the people who collected the body were not careful. If she could enter the house, Mrs. Guaerjia would be able to check it out.

Jianqiu shook her head in embarrassment. On the surface, Guaerjia committed suicide out of fear of punishment, which was an ignominious death. It was already something Yixiu had fought for to have a simple funeral with a seven-day wake.

Mrs. Guaerjia was rejected and couldn't hold back her grief. She covered her face and cried loudly, cursing Lord Guaerjia while crying, "Xuantong is not the type to live in a wealthy family. But your family sacrificed my daughter for a useless prince. You have to compensate me for my daughter!"

As she spoke, Lady Guarjia began to beat Lord Guarjia. When she was tired, she continued to cry, beating her chest and stamping her feet, saying in regret, "My daughter! My mother's Xuantong! My son! My son!"

Lord Guaerjia's back became hunched, as if he had aged a dozen years, and he allowed Lady Guaerjia to vent her emotions. If he had known this would happen, he would not have let Xuantong marry the Fourth Prince even if he had torn his face with the clan.

In fact, when Guaerjia caused trouble as soon as she entered the Fourth Prince's mansion, Lord Guaerjia regretted it. Later, Guaerjia was imprisoned, and Lord Guaerjia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, at least she was still alive. But things are unpredictable, who could have thought that after being imprisoned, he would be dragged into such a bloody storm.

The only person left who could take charge was Emin. With red eyes, he tried to make amends for Ama and E'niang, saying, "My younger sister's death was too sudden. Ama and E'niang could not accept it for a while. Please forgive me, aunt."

Jianqiu explained sympathetically, "It's not that my wife is unkind, it's really..."

Emin nodded in understanding, and suddenly remembered something. He took out a silver note of 1,000 taels from his sleeve and handed it to Jianqiu, "We, the family members, cannot enter Prince Yong's Mansion, so I beg you to arrange funeral arrangements for my younger sister. Whether it's funeral supplies or anything else, just come to Guaerjia Mansion to ask for it. This silver note is your hard work fee."

Jianqiu couldn't refuse, so she had to accept it and left Guwaljia Prefecture.

Mrs. Guaerjia had fainted from crying and was carried away by the maids to rest.

Emin asked his father, "Father, all the information about my sister was delivered to Prince Yong's Mansion by us. How could she have the manpower to murder Concubine Nian?" Even if others don't know, don't her own family members know about her own business?

Lord Guaerjia smiled bitterly, "Others are the butchers and I am the meat!" Lord Guaerjia did not show the letter to anyone else. The letter contained life-threatening matters, so why drag anyone else into it?

Unable to get an answer, E Min could only think based on his own cognition. His sister must have been made a scapegoat for someone. If the Guarjia clan was not weak now, how could Prince Yong's Mansion have convicted his sister in such an unclear way.

If he could be as powerful as Jiang Wangxuan, who would dare to wrongly accuse his sister? E Min, who thought he had figured everything out, had already decided to climb up by any means necessary.

Lord Guaerjia was thinking about how to take revenge on the Fourth Prince. Although he couldn't do it, Prince Yong's wife could definitely do it. Lord Guaerjia didn't think that Yixiu wanted to contact the prince because she cared about the deposed prince's well-being.

Although Lord Guaerjia may not see it, but as long as he thinks about the future, the Fourth Prince thought he was in power, but in fact all the civil and military officials in the court were Yixiu's people. Lord Guaerjia only regretted that he would not live to see that time.
