Chapter 33: The Dark Prince vs. the Delicate and Soft Child (7)
As soon as the imperial edict is issued today, Duke Ningguo will take Jiang Zheng home.
In the end, it was Jiang Zheng who persuaded the eager Ningguo Duke to go back under the pretext of packing up his things.
On the way back home, Fu's mother tried to talk to Jiang Zheng several times, but was fooled by her. No matter what Fu's mother said, Jiang Zheng refused to talk.
Early the next morning, the entire Ningguo Mansion's family came to the door, and Jiang Yuan even dispatched a team of personal guards to support the occasion.
When Jiang Zheng arrived, she saw Jiang Yuan directing his guards to move boxes. "Brother, you're here too."
He looked left and right but couldn't see any sign of Jiang's mother. "Where's my mother?"
When Jiang Yuan saw his sister, he left the housekeeper aside and said with a smile, "Mother is going to count your dowry."
It is said that the Duke's wife brought the wedding gift list for Jiang Zheng and counted the items one by one.
Jiang Zheng responded and turned her head to see the bright door of the general's mansion. The people outside the door were noisy and clamoring, and they all leaned inside to look, "Why are you opening the door?"
Jiang Yuan glanced towards the main hall in the northeast corner and sneered, "The Fu family's disgusting behavior is just right for them to gain some fame and fulfill Fu Zihan's dream of becoming famous in Kyoto."
Jiang Zheng tried hard not to laugh out loud.
Jiang Yuan is really mean. He divorced the Fu family yesterday, and today he wants to make the Fu family completely lose face.
Whenever Fu Zihan went out, people would point fingers at him.
As the brother and sister were talking, they saw the Duke's wife walk out of Jiang Zheng's courtyard with an angry look on her face, "What kind of people are this family! How shameless!"
Jiang's mother didn't know until she checked. Once she checked, she found that many precious items in her daughter's dowry were missing. After asking Yun'er, she learned that they were all taken away by the old woman in the main hall. How could the Duke's wife not be angry!
The Duke's wife was about to go to the main hall to ask for it, but Mother Fu led a group of people to the front yard. When she saw Mother Jiang's expression, she smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, what are you doing? If you have anything to say, let's go inside and talk. It's not proper to do it at the door!"
"Improper?" Jiang's mother was also from a noble family. She was usually gentle and decent, but now she was shocked by the shamelessness of this family. "You, the Fu family, dared to cheat my daughter's dowry! And you have the nerve to say the word "improper" to me! You are the most unproper people in the whole imperial city!"
If any of the noble families in Kyoto calculated the dowry of their daughter-in-law, they would be ridiculed for the rest of their lives if it became known to others.
After Jiang's mother said this, the people gathered outside all felt that something was wrong with Fu's mother's expression.
"Why is the Fu family still cheating their daughter-in-law of her dowry?"
"That's right. I saw Madam Fu wearing gold and silver jewelry to attend a banquet a few days ago. All of them were precious items. General Fu, a fourth-rank general, can't afford them. Could they be Miss Jiang's dowry?"
"Of course it is! Duke Ningguo was a meritorious official who helped the emperor to succeed the throne, and he is also a first-class noble, so he is naturally wealthy. When Miss Jiang got married, she had a huge wedding dress! This Fu family is too shameless."
Every word the people said was like a loud slap in the face of Fu's mother, making her feel very embarrassed.
Jiang's mother was very angry. When she turned around, she saw the bracelet on the wrist of Huang Huier who was supporting Fu's mother.
At first glance, she felt that it looked familiar. After a long look, she realized that it was the dowry given to her daughter by her mother's family. Jiang's mother was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pointed at Huang Huier and said, "How dare you, a concubine, take my daughter's bracelet! Your Fu family is really great. You let a concubine ride on my daughter's head!"
Jiang Yuan naturally recognized the bracelet. His eyes were as sharp as a torch, as if he wanted to chop off Huang Huier's hand. He sneered and said, "The Fu family is really very proud."
Jiang Zheng searched her memory for a long time before she gradually recalled, "Mother, this is the dowry my grandmother gave me. You said you loved me and gave it to you, so why did it end up in her hands?"
Jiang Zheng's aggrieved look was heartbreaking, and the people watching outside the door cursed Fu's mother even more.
The bracelet originally belonged to Fu's mother, but Huang Huier had been courting her these past few days, which made Fu's mother feel a little more arrogant, so she gave the bracelet to Huang Huier.
Jiang Yuan didn't fight with the woman, so he waved to the maids behind Jiang's mother and said, "Take back the young lady's bracelet."
The old women came forward in response.
Huang Huier retreated in horror, but was blocked by several old women. The old women were strong and several of them grabbed Huang Huier and attacked her viciously.
"Let me go! I'm pregnant with the general's child! How can you lowly slaves do this to me! I want the general to kill you!" Huang Huier struggled desperately but couldn't move at all.
The old woman showed no mercy and forcibly slipped the jade bracelet from Huang Huier's wrist. Her sharp nails scratched her skin, leaving blood marks.
"Who do you want Fu Zihan to kill?" Jiang Yuan sneered and looked down at Huang Huier, as if he was looking at a frog in a well. "How many heads does Fu Zihan have to dare to kill the imperial concubine and the imperial official? How many lives can the General's Mansion have to satisfy His Majesty's wrath?"
Jiang Yuan was a second-rank military officer, and his mother was a first-rank imperial lady.
Unless Fu Zihan is tired of living, he can't touch anyone.
Mother Jiang drank a few sips of tea before her anger subsided. "Yun'er, you and Zhuhua count the young lady's dowry together. Remember... no matter where the items are, you must bring them back, not a single thing can be missing!"
Yun'er and Zhuhua bowed and said, "We understand."
Mother Fu naturally knew how many things in the main hall where she was sitting were Jiang Zheng's dowry, but she could not stop the people from the Duke's Mansion at all.
Zhuhua and Yun'er acted very quickly, and together with the personal guards brought by Jiang Yuan, they soon moved out many rare treasures from all over the Fu Mansion.
Most of them were moved out from Fu's mother's main hall, and some were moved out from Fu Zihan's residence, filling up an entire yard.
"Madam, except for a thousand-year-old ginseng, the young lady's dowry is all here. Here are the land deeds and the land deeds. Please take a look." Zhuhua handed the dowry list and the deeds to Jiang's mother.
Jiang's mother asked, "Where did the thousand-year-old ginseng go?"
Jiang Zheng stepped forward and patted Jiang's mother's hand, "Mother, the old lady said one day that she was not feeling well, and she wanted to take the thousand-year-old ginseng away."
She has already divorced Fu Zihan, so the name must naturally change.
Mrs. Fu was not feeling unwell at all. She just wanted to take the thousand-year-old ginseng from Jiang Zheng because of its price. She used the excuse of showing filial piety. "This... I am not feeling well. The doctor said that using the ginseng as medicine would be better."
"This thousand-year-old ginseng was brought back from the battlefield by our Duke. There are only two of them, one for His Majesty and one for Zheng'er as a dowry. Zheng'er has been suffering from serious and minor illnesses for the past four years, and she dared not use this life-saving herb," the Duke's wife snorted coldly, "I wonder how serious Madam Fu's illness is that she needs such a precious herb. How come I didn't receive any news from the Duke's Mansion?"
Mother Fu's complexion was particularly good-looking, a mixture of green and blue.
"What's going on?" Fu Zihan's voice came from the door.
When Fu's mother and Huang Hui'er saw Fu Zihan coming back, they seemed to have found their backbone and cried, "Son, you are finally back. If you hadn't come back, we would have been killed by these jackals!"
