Nian Huajiao: The cold-faced treacherous minister spoiled her unconditionally after breaking his vow

They were silent, and the tribesmen standing by would not say anything good for Jiang Luo. Some even looked at Jiang Luo with contempt because of what the tribe leader Jiang Wu said.

There were also those with bad intentions who thought that if Jiang Luo was suppressed, then would their own daughter, Jiang, also have a chance to enter the Marquis' Mansion and become the Crown Prince's wife?

There are so many dirty and filthy thoughts in this world. Not being soft-hearted is your best armor.

Otherwise, he would be like Jiang Luo in his previous life, who was eaten until not even a bone was left.

After hearing what he said, Old Lady Qi frowned. This was exactly the same as what the group of people said when she was about to return home after Qi Chang died.

The fire in her heart immediately burst out.

It turns out that after all these decades, this group of sanctimonious old folks are still so pedantic.

It is really despicable that he had the heart to put such a little girl in dire straits.

She was about to step forward to argue with Jiang Wu, but was stopped by Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luo stood up, smiled at the angry old lady Qi, and bowed, signaling her to calm down. Then he stepped back and stood firm, saying, "I have been to the manor for five years and just returned to the capital. I am not familiar with everything in Yongjing City. I have never been out of the Duke's Mansion many times, and I don't know other people."

Everyone was puzzled when they heard her say this. Why did she suddenly say this?

Everyone in the Duke's Mansion was also puzzled.

Soon, Jiang Luo cleared up their confusion: "If it weren't for my grandmother, father, and this elder, who wanted to throw dirty water on me, I wouldn't have said the following words. But... hey, I hope father knows that my third sister told me that the husband my mother found for me is the son of Cao Mama's younger sister, whose surname is Lin and name is Wen. He now lives in the west of the city."

"Father, if you don't believe me, just go check if there is such a person."

Everyone present finally understood why she had just said those inexplicable words.

Yes, she was only ten years old when she went to the manor. She had been gone for five years, and after coming back for so many days, she probably hadn't even gotten familiar with the Duke's Mansion, let alone the capital.

She had only been out of the Duke's Mansion a few times, let alone knowing that there was a person named Lin Wen, and that he lived in the west of the city.

What is the west of the city?

That is the poorest place in the entire Yongjing City, a slum where peddlers and hawkers gather.

Not to mention her, a delicate young lady from the Duke's Mansion, even these grown men who were in the spotlight all day long had never set foot in such a place.

When everyone thought of this, they couldn't help but think: It seems that what she said is true, otherwise, how could she know it so clearly?

Not only do we know the person's surname and first name, we also know where he lives.

Unless... Qin Shi really asked someone to find out, and had this intention, and Jiang Yin overheard it by accident...

After hearing what Jiang Luo said, Qin Shi felt more and more uneasy. She stared at Jiang Luo with her almond-shaped eyes in disbelief.

She thought that if Jiang Zhou really listened to Jiang Luo and investigated, and she also remembered that Jiang Zhou had warned her before that Jiang Luo was reserved for Lord Lu of the Imperial Guard... She almost fainted from anger...

It was only when Mother Qin behind her saw that the situation was not right that she helped her up, and she was able to stand firm.

Who said that? She didn't understand how Jiang Luo knew this secret. In the entire Duke's Mansion, she only told this to Mother Cao.

Mother Cao has always been cautious and would definitely not leak the information. Moreover, Mother Cao had already been sold out, and even she couldn't be found, so Jiang Luo would not have gotten the information from Mother Cao.

What's more, being able to marry a young lady from the Duke's Mansion is a great honor for their Cao family, a blessing that cannot be accumulated in ten lifetimes. How could they say anything nonsense and ruin such a good thing?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Qin thought about the interests involved and looked at Jiang Yin with some suspicion.

Could it be that what Jiang Luo said was true, was it really what Yin'er said?

If it was Yin'er who really said this, then it was possible. Maybe she overheard me discussing this with Mother Cao while she was taking a nap in Chunhua Courtyard...

Thinking of this, she glared at Jiang Yin angrily.

I thought to myself: He really doesn't know the seriousness of the matter, he just says whatever he wants!

Jiang Yin was glared at by her and immediately burst into tears of grievance. She explained, "I didn't, I didn't say those words. Father, mother, it was Jiang Luo who slandered me. What Lin Wen, what Mother Cao, how would I know these. She is just crazy and wants me to suffer, so she is biting me..."

No matter how much she said at this point, she couldn't dispel everyone's thoughts.

Even if Qin didn't do it this time, she did it in the eyes of everyone.

Jiang Zhou felt even more helpless.

If he went to investigate, and if he really found out that there was such a family, then wouldn't that reveal all of Qin's thoughts?

Revealing Qin's thoughts to others would be equivalent to betraying himself, which is absolutely not allowed!

Qin could do this kind of thing in private, but he couldn't bear the bad reputation in public, because he was the Duke of Zhenguo. If such a reputation spread, how would he survive in the court in the future?

But if we don’t investigate…how will this situation end?

At this moment, he was really angry about what Madam Jiang had just said, which put him in a dilemma.

Seeing him like this, Qin had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "Luo'er, mother has never done such a thing, and you don't have to say that to me. The way I treat you sisters is known to all heaven and earth. As for your third sister, she would never say such treasonous words."

Then, she hardened her heart and said with tears in her eyes: "If you don't believe me, I will die in front of our ancestors today to prove my innocence." After that, she was about to go to the ancestral hall.

Everyone present gasped, especially the Jiang family members, as they had never seen such a scene before.

The Duke's wife was so angry at the original wife's daughter that she wanted to bang her head against the pillar to prove her innocence.

This, this, this... If this gets out, Jiang Luo will never be able to get married in her life.

Qin is really a ruthless character.

But how could the people in the Duke's Mansion let such a thing happen? In front of so many clansmen, they should not walk outside in the future.

Before Qin could even leave the door, she was pulled back by Liu and Jiang Miao from the left and right.

While Liu was persuading Qin, she kept complaining in her heart: This bitch is really good at scheming. She can even think of a way to kill someone to prove her innocence. I really have to admire her. She is so cruel to herself.

"Okay, how long are you going to make trouble?" After seeing that Qin was safe and sound, Jiang Zhou glared at Jiang Luo and said angrily.

Jiang Luo just pretended not to see it. Even if no one pulled Qin Shi, she would not have run into someone and killed herself.

After working so hard for so many years, she finally had children, a reputation, and her position as the Duke's wife was rock solid. She wouldn't be so stupid.

Isn't it just to show it to these people and ruin her reputation at the same time? These are the only tricks Qin has.
