After entering the book, I emptied the warehouse of my foster mother's house to farm

Chapter 840 This woman...really doesn't say what she means

Jiang Cheng was extremely reluctant, but took great risk and left the house through the back door, and finally met up with Jiang Huaili and went to Ji's house.

Uncle Ming's eyes trembled when he saw Jiang Huaili, but when he saw the box he was holding, he understood. Was he here to send silver to the county lord again?

"Master Jiang, the county lady is not at home."

Uncle Ming's expression was not pleasant, but he was approachable for the sake of the money.

Jiang Huaili came prepared, and said with a pain in his heart: "It's okay, father and I will go in and wait."

Father and son?

Uncle Ming was stunned, then he looked towards the carriage, only to see the curtain move. Jiang Cheng came out of the carriage with his face covered, looking around furtively.

"Manager Ming, please let my cousin know."

In order to achieve his goal, Jiang Huaili even played the family card.

"Master Jiang, Master Jiang, please."

Although Uncle Ming invited the person in, he did not notify Mrs. Jiang or Ji Zixuan. He just had the Jiang father and son served tea and left the person there.

He didn't know when the county lord would come back. Jiang Huaili had to wait himself, so he just let him wait.

Perhaps God couldn't bear to let Jiang Hao neglect the silver in Jiang Huaili's hands for too long, so Jiang Hao came back from outside in less than half an hour.

When Jiang Cheng saw Jiang Hao, he avoided his gaze, fearing that Jiang Hao would destroy him.

The incident at Baiyun Temple must be related to Jiang Hao. Otherwise, how to explain why they were the four who bullied the merchant girl?

I don’t know whether Xiao Hengshan really couldn’t find any evidence, or whether the Dali Temple was covering up Jiang Hao’s actions.

"County Lord."

Jiang Huaili was very sensible and spoke first. He endured the humiliation and respectfully handed over the box: "Here is another 10,000 taels of silver. Please, county lady, make sure to cure the prince and clear my son's name."

"That's really nice to say."

Jiang Hao tore off Jiang Huaili's fig leaf without hesitation: "Master Jiang is afraid that he will lose the big tree of King Wei and be completely liquidated in the future, right?"

Jiang Huaili's face flushed instantly: "I don't know what the county lady is talking about..."

"You know very well that I'm not the murderer!"

Jiang Cheng was young and frivolous after all, and he didn't understand what "a man of insight is a hero" meant, and he was so angry that he jumped up and down.

But let me ask you, how could he tolerate Jiang Hao's instigation and slander of the relationship between him and his father, and how could he accept that his innocence was not as important as his father's career?

He is a scoundrel, but he is not stupid!

"Jiang Cheng, I haven't bothered you yet, but you've framed me first."

Jiang Hao sneered, and then threw the box handed by Jiang Huaili in front of Jiang Cheng: "The Dali Temple has been ordered by the emperor to open a case. If you have evidence, just send it to Lord Xiao, and he will definitely handle it impartially. If you don't have it, and you slander me with empty words, I will definitely sue you for slander and frame-up."

"Uncle Ming, show him out!"

Jiang Huaili and his son thought that being driven out by the people from the Ji Mansion was the end of them, and at most they would lose some face.

However, not long after he returned home, people from Shuntian Prefecture came to his door and wanted to take Jiang Cheng to Shuntian Prefecture for questioning.

With the arrest warrant in hand, Jiang Cheng was taken away screaming like a ghost.

It was originally thought that Xiao Hengshan sent people to arrest Jiang Cheng because there was progress in the Baiyun Temple case. However, when they arrived at Shuntian Prefecture, Jiang Cheng was beaten and questioned by Pei Jun, and only then did he realize that it was Jiang Hao who sued him.

This woman...

You really mean what you say!

Jiang Cheng was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he had no way to defend himself since the maids and the steward of the Ji mansion had testified to the slander against Jiang Hao.

"My Lord, I am only talking..."

"How dare you! How can you defame the reputation of the county lady? Come, slap her in the face!"
