Qin Zhize's brain turned quickly, and then he argued:

"Master Yang, how can you take seriously what men and women say in bed?

Those words are used to coax women!"

Lord Yang looked at Qin Zhize with disgust and said:

“But I take it seriously!

The more you say something while relaxing in bed, the more likely it is to be believed!"

Looking at Lord Yang's eyes, Qin Zhize felt humiliated. Ever since he married Kang Yueling, although some people had been talking about her behind her back, no one had ever looked at him with such eyes in public.

Afterwards, Qin Zhize heard what Lord Yang said again, and he was furious:

"you you……"

Qin Zhize was so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time.

Lord Yang ignored his expression and continued:

"Am I wrong?

When you are most relaxed, that is, when you are least guarded, the words you say at that time are the most true words. "

Qin Zhize immediately retorted:

"no.

I said, those are just words to coax women, don’t take them seriously.”

"After serving as an official for so many years, I can still tell the truth from the false."

After hearing this, Qin Zhize became even angrier. Lord Yang wanted to kill him. If the two women of the Kang family knew about this, he would be in big trouble!

Now, the Kang family's property has not yet been acquired, and the Qin family's title has not yet been secured. At this time, no accidents must occur.

At this point, Qin Zhize could only think of other ways. He didn't want to make things worse.

Qin Zhize walked up to Lord Yang and said:

"Master Yang, today you should pretend that you have never been here and have no idea what happened here. Afterwards, I will definitely give you a generous gift."

"Are you trying to bribe me?

Do you know how this dynasty will deal with bribery? Are you trying to kill me?"

"Master Yang, I don't mean to harm you?"

Lord Yang snorted coldly.

Soft tactics didn't work, so Qin Zhize could only threaten:

"Master Yang, do you know my identity?"

"Of course I do."

"Aren't you afraid of offending me?"

"Afraid? If I were afraid, I wouldn't have come here in person today.

Come, take these two away."

"Yes."

Qin Zhize roared:

"How dare you arrest me? Aren't you afraid of retaliation from the Duke of Kangnan's Mansion?"

Lord Yang said with a forced smile:

"Revenge me? You're probably overthinking it!

To tell you the truth, today the old lady of Duke Kangnan's Mansion asked her maid to bring her badge to Jingzhao Mansion to report a case, saying that someone wanted to kill her granddaughter, and the murderer was at No. 50 Qiuluo Lane.

That's why I came to arrest you.

I never expected to hear Mr. Qin's murderous remarks right after arriving here!"

Qin Zhize's face turned pale and he said in disbelief:

"What? The old lady knows?"

Lord Yang continued:

“Yes, the old lady knows about it, and it was she who asked me to arrest him.

Qin Zhize, Qi Shiyun, you Qin family, you deserve to die!

Come, take these two away."

"Yes."

Lord Yang left with the yamen runners.

The people immediately followed the officers to watch the fun.

When they arrived at Jingzhao Prefecture, Lord Yang sent someone to invite Madam Kang.

When Mrs. Kang learned that Lord Yang had asked her to come, she nodded and said:

"it is good."

She said to the maid beside her:

"Notify the government and send the captured groom to Jingzhao Prefecture."

"Yes."

When Mrs. Kang found out that the horse had gone mad because someone had drugged it, she sent people to arrest all the servants in the mansion who had contact with the horse. Not long after, they found the groom who had drugged the horse.

She thought she was tolerant towards her servants, but she didn't expect that she would raise such a treacherous servant.

……

Song Yaoyao also wanted to go and see, so they went to Jingzhao Prefecture together.

Seeing Madam Kang and Song Yaoyao, Lord Yang immediately stepped forward to greet them, and then brought chairs for them.

The court session begins.

When Qin Zhize was brought in, he immediately admitted his mistake as soon as he saw Madam Kang:

"Grandma, I was wrong, I won't do it again.

Grandma, please forgive me this time for Yueyue's sake. I promise I won't do it again.

grandmother……"

Lord Yang slammed the gavel and scolded:

"Qin Zhize, if you keep yelling, I'll drag you out and give you ten lashes."

When Qin Zhize heard that he was going to be beaten with a stick, he immediately stopped talking.

The entire courtroom suddenly fell silent. Lord Yang then asked Madam Kang,

“Madam Kang, since you are the victim, tell me the whole story!”

"it is good.

The thing is, my granddaughter goes to the south of the city to distribute porridge every few days. Today was another day for my granddaughter to do so. Unexpectedly, an accident happened. The horse went crazy and almost killed my granddaughter and two others.

Fortunately, he met Princess Jiahe, who rescued his granddaughter in time.

However, my granddaughter was born prematurely, but fortunately both mother and child are safe."

Qin Zhize asked in surprise:

"Yueyue gave birth to a son?"

Lord Yang scolded:

"Qin Zhize, have you forgotten what I just said?"

"No, I haven't forgotten."

"This is the last time. If you continue to speak carelessly, I will not let you off easily."

"Yes."

Lord Yang continued to look at Madam Kang and said:

"Madam, please continue."

"Ok.

The horse was fine normally, why would it suddenly go crazy?

I felt something was wrong, so I asked someone to investigate. Unexpectedly, they caught the betrayer.

I also had that servant sent to Jingzhao Prefecture."

Lord Yang said:

"Then bring the person up."

A moment later, the groom was brought up.

The groom was terrified and knelt down, kowtowed repeatedly:

"Old lady, sir, I was wrong. I did something wrong because I coveted the money."

Lord Yang said:

"Since you know you are wrong, you must answer truthfully whatever I ask next."

"Yes."

"Tell me how you were bribed?"

“The old lady and the young lady usually keep a low profile and rarely go out.

The carriage is rarely used, and the job of a groom in our house is very easy. All we have to do is take good care of the horses!

This way, we have a lot of free time.

When people get together, they like to brag and gamble.

During this period, I had bad luck and lost 50 taels of silver.

Just when I was worrying about how to pay back the money, a woman found me and gave me a packet of medicine, telling me to take the medicine before I got off my horse.

She said that if I did as she said, she would give me 100 taels of silver.

As soon as I heard this, I knew there must be something wrong with that packet of medicine.

Of course I was very hesitant. The woman took out another 100 taels and said that as long as I did as she said, the other 200 taels would be all mine.

I couldn’t resist the temptation and agreed.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Kang said:

"I don't think I treated you unfairly, but you almost took Yueyue's life for 200 taels."
