Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

"I'll send someone to investigate right away." That was the voice of the original owner's third uncle. Just as he finished speaking, the steward of the mansion rushed in to report that Li Renhuai was kneeling outside the mansion, carrying thorns to beg for forgiveness.

The original owner's two older brothers and her cousins ​​immediately ran outside in anger, cursing that Li Renhuai, that bastard, dared to come here, and that they would beat him to death.

None of the elders in the Jiang family spoke up to stop it, because they knew that their younger generation would know their limits and would at most teach Li Renhuai a lesson, not actually kill him.

Li Renhuai was indeed not beaten to death, but he was badly beaten. When he returned to the Ningxin Marquis's residence, his mother cried for a long time.

The estate outside the city of Ningxin Marquis's residence was too easy to investigate, or perhaps Li Renhuai was too confident, so he did not take any secrecy measures on the estate. Therefore, the people sent by the Yan family quickly found out that his cousin was indeed alive and well and was being hidden by Ningxin Marquis's residence in the estate outside the city.

In the original owner's previous life, due to the original owner's confusion, the original owner's grandmother fainted from anger, and the Jiang family was thrown into chaos. Naturally, they had no mind to think deeply and missed the best time to investigate the matter.

The next morning, during the morning court session, Grand Tutor Jiang tearfully denounced the inhumane behavior of the Marquis of Ningxin's family.

The emperor was naturally angry. Grand Tutor Jiang was a trusted old minister. He was the crown prince's tutor when the emperor was the crown prince, and when the emperor ascended the throne at the age of twelve, he did his best to help him stabilize the court, which enabled the emperor to rule so smoothly after his marriage. He was extremely loyal to the emperor.

The fact that the Marquis of Ningxin's family dared to use such despicable means to scheme against Grand Tutor Jiang's granddaughter is also a slap in the face to the Emperor.

Therefore, an imperial edict was issued on the spot to demote the title of Marquis of Ningxin from Marquis to Earl. This was only because of the late Marquis of Ningxin, who had made great contributions to the court and would not have been granted the title of Marquis otherwise.

Unfortunately, none of his children and grandchildren were successful, which led to the Ningxin Marquis's family immediately declining after his death. His family faded out of the court and had no influence there.

Of course, the emperor did not let the Xue family off the hook either. The person in charge of the Xue family, who was also Li's mother's father, was stripped of his official position, and even Li's mother's brother, who was a minor official of the fifth rank, was also stripped of his position.

This is clearly misplaced anger, but who can be blamed? After all, the Xue family has produced such a wonderful daughter and granddaughter.

When the Ningxin Marquis's mansion received the imperial decree demoting his rank, Madam Li fainted on the spot. The Ningxin Marquis was in no better shape; the regret in his heart was overwhelming, almost drowning him.

Of course, he was also extremely angry. After seeing off the eunuch who delivered the imperial decree, he stormed to the courtyard where his son lived, dragged his son off the bed, and beat him severely.

Li Renhuai was already injured, and after being beaten by his father, his injuries became even more serious. He was bedridden for three days before he could finally get out of bed.

As soon as he was able to get out of bed, Li Renhuai couldn't wait to go to the Xue family because he had received a letter from his cousin asking him to go to the Xue family to rescue her.

The Xue family, having suffered this misfortune, naturally vented their anger on Xue Xuerou. Knowing that Xue Xuerou was hiding in the manor outside the city of Ningxin Marquis, they immediately sent people to bring her back to the Xue family.

So for the past three days, Xue Xuerou's life in the Xue family was worse than death. Not only was she locked in the woodshed, but she was also deprived of food and water. If Li Renhuai hadn't come to rescue her, she might have been tortured to death by the Xue family.

If the Xue family really wanted to kill her, they could have simply sent her to her death with a white silk ribbon. Xue Xuerou's maid wouldn't have been able to send a distress message to Li Renhuai.

Ultimately, the Xue family didn't want their grandson, Li Renhuai, to hate them. After all, although Marquis Ningxin had been demoted to Earl, he still held a title. The Xue family didn't want their grandson to hate them, especially since the Xue family had now become commoners.
