Confiscating property? A stunningly beautiful substitute bride empties the national treasury and is

After finishing her sentence, Song Qingqian curled her lips into a cold smile, then added fuel to the fire, saying, "If the official thinks she is charming and lovely, wouldn't it be better to just summon her and let her ride in the same carriage with you?"

That Miss Jiang is outstanding in appearance and is one of the most beautiful women in the capital. Shouldn't she seek help from the soldiers first when she is in trouble?

"What do you want with us? Just because my husband is handsome? But good looks can't put food on the table. If I were her, I'd definitely go to you, Commander Sun, first."

"Sir, you're right, aren't you?"

Sun Wuyin was indeed a little tempted. Jiang Meier was indeed a beautiful woman, but she was always very arrogant and behaved very properly throughout the journey.

Now that she's willing to take the initiative to come out, she's actually the first one to go to Lu Jingchuan. How is she any worse than Lu Jingchuan? She's just looking down on people and doesn't know how to appreciate kindness.

Seeing that Sun Wuyin was on the right track, Song Qingqian continued, "If you ask me, the official has both power and prestige. She must be blind not to come to you."

Besides, why does Vice General Jiang help Jiang Meier instead of anyone else?

"I disagree. He actually ordered the soldiers to forcibly carry her up. Sir, don't you find that strange?"

"Humph…"

Sun Wuyin snorted coldly, becoming increasingly dissatisfied with Jiang Ce. But then he changed his tone, saying that since he had this leverage, he wasn't afraid that Song Qingqian wouldn't give in.

"Their affairs are their business; now, how do you intend to resolve the young lady's matter?"

Song Qingqian waved her hand: "I did nothing wrong, there's no way to solve it. If everyone comes to me looking for trouble, it's all my fault."

"Next time someone gets close, I'll slap them, or kill them with a knife, otherwise there will be endless trouble."

Although Sun Wuyin was so angry he was gritting his teeth, looking at Song Qingqian's profile, he still couldn't resist keeping her in suspense:

"Actually, this matter is easy to resolve if you want to settle things peacefully."

Then Sun Wuyin revealed a greedy look in his eyes and smiled slyly:

"If Miss Lu is willing to come with me, you'll be in charge of this entire exile team from now on. You can do whatever you want with them, and if you don't like anyone, we'll kill them. See how sincere I am?"

Song Qingqian nodded and smiled: "It is sufficient, but I don't need it. Sir, please give this opportunity to those who want to seize it."

"Besides, I'm the kind of person who doesn't bother others unless they bother me. But if someone tries to cause trouble or block my way, I won't hold back."

Sun Wuyin's expression immediately changed, and he coldly retorted, "Song Qingqian, don't be so stubborn. I'm only saying this because I think highly of you. If I didn't, you would be nothing!"

"Then let's pretend it's nothing. The official can do whatever he wants with it!"

"Wait!"

Seeing that Song Qingqian was about to leave, Sun Wuyin stopped her and threatened her:

"Since you don't agree to the benefits we offer, we'll handle this officially. Either you keep your wolfhound, or you take out fifty taels of silver for Vice General Jiang's medical expenses."

"We don't have any silver, and Dahuang won't give it to you either."

Song Qingqian's eyes flickered, and she suggested, "Doesn't the official just want me to take responsibility for Vice General Jiang's injury? Then you hand him over to me, and I'll take care of his treatment from now on. What do you think?"

Seeing Sun Wuyin deep in thought, Song Qingqian added, "Isn't he injured his leg? My husband's wheelchair can be given to him for free. That would save you trouble, sir, wouldn't it?"

"Alright, from today onwards, he belongs to you. If he dies, I'll hold you responsible."

Sun Wuyin spoke coldly. Throwing Jiang Ce out like this would both annoy Lu Jingchuan and reduce his burden, so why not?

Song Qingqian shook her head and listed them one by one: "That won't do. I can guarantee that he won't die from his leg injury, but I'm not responsible for anything else."

What if he gets struck by lightning, carried away by wolves, or swept away by a river…”

"Stop, stop, stop! Don't curse him to die!"

Sun Wuyin's eyes twitched violently at her words. What was all this about...?

“Sir, what I’m saying are all things that could happen. After all, we’re in exile, and there are too many unknowns. I can’t possibly tie our lives to a half-dead man.”

"Alright, as long as it's an unnatural death, I won't hold it against you!"

"Alright! Goodbye, sir!"

After finishing her sentence, Song Qingqian jumped off the carriage with ease and left humming a little tune.

After a few claps of thunder, the rain began...

Lu Jingchuan was worried about her, so he sat alone in front of the carriage waiting. He really wanted to go with her, but Song Qingqian wouldn't allow it. He was anxious and could only count down the time.

Seeing her return in high spirits, Lu Jingchuan finally felt relieved. He quickly draped his outer robe over Song Qingqian's shoulders and reminded her:

"The rain came so suddenly. You're wearing thin clothes, don't get wet and catch a cold."

"What did Sun Wuyin say?"

"Let us take care of Jiang Ce!"

Song Qingqian smiled gently, in a great mood, and said, "From now on, he will be with us. You can settle any scores and grievances, as long as he doesn't die!"

Lu Jingchuan frowned and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean by 'take care of'? Does he mean he'll be living with us from now on?"

"Correct!"

Song Qingqian nodded: "From now on, you can practice with your cane and give him the wheelchair. Later, I'll pull a rope from the back of the carriage, tie him to the wheelchair, and drag him around!"

"Isn't this inappropriate? What I mean is, we should just pay some money and let the soldiers take care of him. Why should we get involved in this mess?"

Song Qingqian smiled and shook her finger: "This isn't muddy water, it's fun. With him as a warning, other officers and soldiers wouldn't dare to mess with us even if they had a lot of guts."

"Fine, whatever you say!"

Lu Jingchuan smiled gently, and said with some regret:

"I just can't bear to let someone else use the wheelchair you made by hand; it would be such a waste!"

"It's alright, we're just making the most of everything! We'll deal with these things once your leg heals."

As soon as Song Qingqian finished speaking, Jiang Ce was indeed carried over on a stretcher by two soldiers. The exiled crowd actually came to watch the excitement despite the rain.

Seeing the soldiers about to load the carriage, Song Qingqian stopped them with a smile and explained:

"We have received the person. Sir, please tell your superior that we will take good care of Deputy General Jiang!"

"Row!"

The two exchanged a glance, placed Jiang Ce on the ground, and walked away.

"Lu Yunqi, take the wheelchair and ropes down."

After Song Qingqian finished speaking, Lu Yunqi jumped off the carriage, and she immediately said:

"Pick him up here and tie him up!"

Jiang Ce panicked upon hearing this and immediately raised his voice, shouting, "Song Qingqian, what... what do you want to do? I am an official of the imperial court, you can't treat me like this!"

"Shut up! Who told you to meddle? Now that you're in my hands, you're asking for death!"

As she spoke, Song Qingqian tore off a piece of gauze and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

"Help...help me!"

The onlookers were startled and quickly left. This young lady from the Lu family was going to kill someone!

A moment later, Jiang Ce, like a ball, was dragged haphazardly behind the carriage, mercilessly enduring the baptism of rain.

At this moment, he felt nothing but regret. He shouldn't have been misled by beauty and mistakenly believed Jiang Meier's promise.
