Never divorce, never stop getting rich
Chapter 22 Everyone has their own thoughts
Qian Qiansui never thought that she could hide the truth for the rest of her life, but the fact that the other party came to her door so quickly gave her a concrete understanding of Fu Zichan's subordinates.
After all, most of her understanding of this villain came from the novel in her previous life, but the length was limited and Fu Zichan was not the protagonist.
"Ma'am, aren't you in a hurry?"
Quan Jiafu had done a lot of errands for Su Guang for the Marquis, and had heard about Yan Sui from time to time. He knew that Yan Sui was not someone who could be easily fooled. Perhaps they wanted to come and question the Marquis because his wife had done something that displeased him in recent days.
"What's the hurry? After all, I'm the Marquis' wife, carried in a sedan chair by eight men. What can they do to me? Kill me or bury me?"
Qian Qiansui knew very well what Fu Zichan and his gang were afraid of. The empress was not a pushover. She didn't kill them only because the royal relatives of the Fu family were still there. But if they dared to show any sign, they would be the next to die.
"But..." Quan Jiafu hesitated. Was he really not here to pick a fight with Madam? Was Madam really following the Marquis's instructions?
"Hurry up and arrange my dowry. We won't have to eat in the big kitchen. The Marquis is not at home, so of course we can do whatever we want."
The only person who can apparently control her in this mansion is the detached concubine dowager. The concubine dowager is in that position, so if anyone wants to punish her, they can only do it in a sneaky way.
But in order not to ruin Fu Zichan's plan, and not knowing Fu Zichan's purpose, the fairy mother-in-law naturally had to hold it in for the time being.
The whole family touched the back of their heads and walked out still confused.
After he left, Qian Qiansui called Lai Shun from the courtyard. During this period, this guy had become a dog slave, and Lais was served by him personally.
Not to mention three meals a day, he was meticulous even in combing his hair, washing his face and wiping his paws every day. It can be seen how strong an impression that day left on this person.
"Laishun, find someone insignificant from my dowry and send a letter to the academy that the Marquis bought. Tell them that if they want to preserve the academy, they must make choices."
Qian Qiansui thought about the task given by the system, but no matter what kind of store she opened, she believed that the Marquis's people would not let her have an easy time. She even didn't dare to think about how many of the stores she had brought as a dowry were still under her control.
So she decided to find another way. As long as she completed the task, she could survive.
Lai Shun nodded and followed Bai Qing to the back to select people. This was the first time that his master had found a job for him, bypassing the whole family. He had to do it well.
Yan Sui had just come out of the imperial concubine's courtyard after paying his respects. He felt heavy in his heart and couldn't help frowning.
If even the Concubine Dowager doesn't know where the Marquis has gone, then something must have happened to the Marquis.
However, the Marquis' Mansion was heavily guarded, with loose exterior and tight interior, and entry and exit were strictly controlled. The Marquis was also very skilled, so even if his movements were restricted, he would not disappear without a trace.
"Sir, there's news from the Red Makeup Pavilion. Liu Ruyan said that on the night of the Marquis' wedding, they were going to poison Qian Qiansui, but for some reason,
A strange woman suddenly appeared in the room and was sent to Chunxiang Tower by Qian Qiansui. She disappeared with the Marquis. However, Qian Qiansui, who drank the poison, survived.
A man in a coarse blue shirt and with an ordinary face walked up to Yan Sui and whispered.
Yan Sui looked at the beautiful flowers in full bloom in the Marquis's mansion garden, his brows furrowed even more. "Was Liu Ruyan sold back to Hongzhuang Pavilion by Qian Qiansui?"
"Yes, she also repeatedly said that Qian Qiansui had a very strange dog with him. It was small in size but had extraordinary strength. All the men that the Marquis left in Xinghua Lane were killed.
Those who had indentures were all sold by that woman, and those who didn't were also handed over to the authorities. Some who were found to have criminal records are now incarcerated."
These desperate criminals were gathered by the Marquis with great difficulty. He didn't believe that a little dog could do this.
"Such a grand gesture, and under the banner of the Marquis..."
Yan Sui walked forward with his hands behind his back, "Don't you think she is certain that the Marquis will not come back?"
"No... I can't."
The man in the blue shirt felt a chill down his spine, cold sweat soaking his temples. These people were hanging their lives on their belts just to follow the Marquis and have a future they never dared to imagine before. But what would they do if the Marquis was gone?
"Is Yuan Chengzhi back?" Yan Sui was also unsure.
"I just came back and am waiting in the Marquis' study." The man in blue replied immediately.
"Have you checked the servants in the Marquis' Mansion that I asked you to check?" Yan Sui immediately led his men to the Marquis' study.
The man in blue followed Yan Sui closely and said, "The servants didn't bring any new people except for the dowry from the Qian family. On the night of the wedding, the concubine found an excuse to lock up the dowry.
Even the two maids around Qian Qiansui were sold to Hongzhuang Pavilion by Liu Ruyan when she saw an opportunity."
"So, that night, Qian Qiansui was alone and helpless, and he drank a poison that penetrated his intestines? That's ridiculous!"
Yan Sui stepped onto the stairs, waved his sleeves and said, "Under such circumstances, the woman was not dead, and she even killed the Marquis. She has caused a lot of trouble in the past few days, and even the person in the palace has news about her."
"Besides this, there's a newcomer in the mansion, a concubine presented by that minor official from the Ministry of War last month. She's beautiful and passionate, and the Marquis liked her very much, so he kept her. Everyone in the mansion calls her Aunt Chun.
After the Marquis disappeared, someone saw her wandering around the study door, but the maid beside her replied that Concubine Chun had entered the mansion and had not been favored by the emperor until now.
Plus, the Marquis married the mistress, so this concubine was worried and wanted to run into the Marquis by chance."
That made sense, he'd seen a lot of men in blue shirts, and a man's backyard was never a peaceful place.
"Find an opportunity to capture that concubine and Qian Qiansui. I don't believe there's no one behind them."
For the sake of the great cause, I would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go.
"But the higher-ups are keeping an eye on us, and Qian Qiansui is missing..."
Yan Sui said nonchalantly, "Find a replacement and report him as dead after a year."
The man in blue bowed and left at the door of the study.
Yan Sui pushed the door open and walked in. Before he could even stand still, he saw Yuan Cheng tossing back and forth anxiously, which was very different from his usual state. He couldn't help but feel curious.
"The Lord is finally here."
Yuan Chengzhi scratched his hair in annoyance. He now felt that he was fooled by that strange woman in Chunxianglou. Otherwise, why would he agree to deliver a message to that woman without getting any advantage?
"But things aren't going well at Chunxianglou?"
Yan Sui sat aside. This was where they often discussed important matters with the Marquis, and they were all very familiar with it.
"She said, she said...she is the Marquis."
