The lady of Chongxi has supernatural powers and is favored by the powerful official

The Marquis was always very gentle when dealing with everyone in the Zhu family. This was because he had lived in the capital with his mother since he was a child while his father was stationed at the border.

He lived with his mother and was the most influenced by her. In his heart, the Zhu families were like one family since he was a child.

But now, Master Zhu San was slamming his desk in his study. He was a marquis!

To be honest, when he stood up, Master Zhu was really startled, but then his eyes rolled:

"Why are you so fierce? Just because you're a marquis, you think you're so great? Then my mother is your aunt, look at what you did? When my father found out that my mother was detained in the mansion by you, he was so angry that he fainted. Nangong Su, I'm telling you, tomorrow, the censor will report you for being unfilial!"

Nangong Su looked at Zhu San who was still yelling at him. This cousin had been a bit rebellious since he was a child, cunning and changeable.

Nangong Su also looked at Boss Zhu, who avoided Nangong Su's gaze guiltily, but allowed the third brother to shout here.

At that moment, Nangong Su seemed to see a different member of the Zhu family.

Although his aunt's behavior was inappropriate when she came to make trouble, he could understand that his aunt was worried about the old marquis's wife and Zhu Xinlan, but the two brothers did not mean that.

So, how do the family members view themselves?

The first time Nangong Su thought about this problem, he suddenly calmed down and did not get angry.

Instead, he looked at the brothers coldly and sat down again:

"Master Zhu has a bad temper. I will wait for the censor to sue me tomorrow!"

Master Zhu San looked at his eldest brother, and Zhu Huaili stepped forward and said:

"My Lord, we are here to take our mother home. Even though she acted a little too aggressively today, she did it for my aunt and my younger sister. My Lord, as the head of the family, you can't even protect your mother and a woman, and you let a new woman bully you. My Lord, I'm afraid it won't sound good if you tell others about this, right?"

"My aunt has been in the Nangong family for many years, and even when the old marquis was alive, she was never imprisoned. How come it's time for the grandson to take over the family and imprison my grandmother?"

"This Marquis's Mansion has been going smoothly all these years. How come everything is messed up after a wedding? Lord Marquis, don't you think about this carefully?"

Some of what Boss Zhu said touched Nangong Su's heart.

Although he now knew that this mansion was filled with filth and corruption, if he had a choice, he would still like to pretend he didn't know, as he did before.

Some things don't smell unless you peel off the skin.

Once the mask is lifted, all the ugliness is exposed to everyone.

The Marquis had been going home immediately after the court session these past two days. He knew that others were talking about the Marquis's residence and that some people were looking at him with strange eyes.

He was too ashamed to face it.

But when he returned to the Marquis' Mansion, he had to tolerate some of his son's behavior. The Marquis's wife, who had never been in charge of affairs before, also came out to take charge for the sake of her silly daughter-in-law.

He was too embarrassed to face her.

Nangong Su had felt a little sorry for his mother before, and he wanted to wait until things at home were stable before comforting his mother, but he didn't expect his aunt to do this again.

Now, seeing the expressions of Zhu Lao San and Zhu Lao Da, he could see the Zhu family more clearly.

Suddenly he was surprised to find out what he had been doing all these years. Why did he always stay close to the Zhu family and stay away from the Xie family?

Nangong Su looked coldly at the two brothers who were singing the same tune, and shouted:

"So the eldest cousin and the third cousin are here now to redeem those people?"

Boss Zhu was stunned for a moment, and his face darkened:

"Does Qianhou Mansion really dare to accept this?"

"Why don't you dare to accept it?"

The voice came from the door of the study. The eldest and third sons of the Zhu family turned around and saw Nangong Yu being carried in by the men in green and black clothes.

When Zhu Lao San saw Nangong Yu, he wanted to scold him, but then he saw the people following Nangong Yu.

Qingyi and Moyi carried the person in and placed him directly in front of the Marquis's desk. Then they turned around and put him down. Nangong Yu faced the eldest and third eldest brothers:

"Sir Shen, you can come and testify. I said this matter should be handled publicly, but you are kind enough to persuade me to settle it privately. If you settle it privately, you have to follow my rules. I have sent someone to bring the letter first. If you hurt my people, you will get five thousand taels for each one. You can take away the people from your families for five taels each."

When Zhu Lao San saw Lord Shen here, he was a little panicked.

Although he was instructed by someone, he also knew that Lord Shen was a tough guy and was well-known in the capital for not being afraid of the powerful.

But when did Nangong Yu invite Lord Shen?

"Nangong Yu, isn't it wrong for you to do this? No matter what, we are your father's closest cousins. Our mother is your great-aunt, so why do you invite Lord Shen here now?"

Zhu Lao San said with a grim expression.

Nangong Yu said lightly:

"It's a coincidence. It wasn't me who invited Lord Shen. It was Lord Shen who wanted to come to our house to investigate some things about Xiao Cheng and his wife, so we ran into each other. I originally wanted to hand over the people who smashed my house to Lord Shen. Lord Shen just advised me to settle it privately. So, have you two prepared the money for the private settlement?"

When the Zhu bosses saw Lord Shen coming, they knew that something bad was going to happen. Their Ministry of Justice had clashed with Lord Shen many times. Although there were several people in their Ministry of Justice who were several levels higher than Lord Shen, they had never defeated him once.

So, he didn't say a word and quietly stepped back.

Zhu Lao San had no money prepared. He originally wanted to make a bigger fuss, but when Lord Shen showed up, he lost his temper.

That person also didn’t tell him what to do if he met Lord Shen!

But if the task assigned to you is not completed properly, the consequences will be equally unpleasant.

Zhu Lao San's expression changed from time to time, and suddenly he shouted:

"Nangong Yu, if you want to do anything to us brothers, our mother is old. If anything happens to our mother, we will never forgive you."

Nangong Yu smiled coldly:

"Don't scare me. I can't stand it. Lord Shen, it seems that the Zhu family has no sincerity in settling the matter privately. I will leave this matter to Lord Shen first. Those people from the Zhu family are not dead yet. Lord Shen can carry them back to the government office. Lord Shen also saw Madam Zhu. We didn't touch her. She was chatting with my grandmother."

Lord Shen's expression was a bit complicated. You've said all the good and bad things. Are we just chatting?

The two old ladies were sitting there with disheveled hair and dirty faces. There was no one around them. There was only a girl with a knife standing at the door.

Can this be used for chatting?

And Nangong Yu continued:

"Sir Shen, you should know best what crime a third-rank official should be punished for bringing people to smash up a super-first-rank marquis' mansion. I'll leave the people to you. Mo Yi, ask Shu Qi to go to Jingzhao Prefecture and help Sir Shen call some people to carry those people away. Otherwise, we'll have to call a doctor if they stay here. Leave these matters to Sir Shen."
