He favored his concubine and I cut off my wealth. Everyone in the mansion was in a panic.

The atmosphere in the room was stagnant, and the air was filled with a strange silence.

After a moment, Yangling Hou finally couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "Who can explain to me what is going on?"

After saying that, his eyes drifted to Mu Ziqian.

He sent someone to poison, but in the end, those who should be poisoned were safe and sound, while those who shouldn't be poisoned gathered together.

Yangling Hou was immediately furious. He shouldn't have believed that Mu Ziqian, a fool, could accomplish anything!

The wife of the Marquis of Yangling already had a headache, and after being yelled at by the Marquis of Yangling, she felt even more dizzy. She scolded him angrily: "Why are you yelling? Is it all Qian'er's fault? Don't you have any problems?"

The Marquis of Yangling's face immediately fell when he was accused by his wife, "What's wrong with me? You asked someone to buy the poison, and Mu Ziqian arranged for someone to do it. What does it have to do with me?"

The Marquis of Yangling's wife didn't even think about it and directly retorted: "You also know that you didn't do anything! If you had been less romantic and more serious about your work, things wouldn't have come to this point?"

The Marquis of Yangling choked up in his throat, and for a moment he didn't know how to refute.

If you can't refute it, then find a breakthrough from the person, so Yangling Hou sternly accused, "Lin Xianglan, you really don't know what it means to respect your husband recently. How dare you talk to me like this? Am I too indulgent to you?" Hearing this, Yangling Hou's wife had more to say, and the sarcasm on her lips could not be suppressed, "Heh! Indulgence? The Marquis's indulgence is to raise a bunch of vixens from outside, and then wait for an opportunity to bring them into the mansion one by one to insult me, right?" Yangling Hou frowned, "The person was brought back by Shen Qing, what does it have to do with me? " "The wife of Yangling Marquis sneered disdainfully, "It has nothing to do with you? If you don't keep Shen Qing, how can it be promoted? It's not because of your bad intentions that Shen Qing has to toss out so many tricks!

In the final analysis, Yangling Marquis's mansion has become what it is today, and you are more than half to blame!"

Seeing that the wife of Yangling Marquis pointed the finger at him, Yangling Marquis immediately became anxious, "Blame me? Wasn't it you who came up with the idea of ​​marrying Xue Fu as the main wife? Did Shen Qing become like this because I kept a concubine?

It's ridiculous!

Can you use your brain to think clearly, she is Mu Ziqian's wife, not mine!" Seeing that Yangling Hou turned his spearhead to himself and Lin Xuefu again, Mu Ziqian couldn't listen anymore, "What does this have to do with me and Fuer? I made it clear early on that I only wanted to marry Fuer, but you forced me to marry Shen Qing. Now that you have taken all the benefits, you want to put this mess on my head, I won't accept it!" "You bastard!" Yangling Hou slammed the table, his brows and eyes were stern, "Mu Ziqian, I am your father, Is that how you talk to me? "

The wife of Yangling Marquis, whose headache was getting worse, immediately followed suit and slammed the table hard, "Why are you slamming? Is Qian'er wrong? How much benefit have you gained from the marriage between Yangling Marquis and Yining Marquis? Don't you know it?

But what about Qian'er? What did he get?

Except for a wife who hates each other, he got nothing. Why do you put all the blame on him!"

The words of the wife of Yangling Marquis really touched Mu Ziqian's heart.

Perhaps because he felt that he had the support of the wife of Yangling Marquis, Mu Ziqian became much bolder, "Father, I wanted to say these words that mother said a long time ago. The marriage between Yangling Marquis and Yining Marquis is beneficial to everyone. Why am I the only one who suffers?"

The Marquis of Yangling picked up the teacup at hand and threw it directly at Mu Ziqian, but he was still rational and did not really hit Mu Ziqian, but even so, he still scared Mu Ziqian.

"You still dare to say that you didn't benefit? Didn't you take the dowry that Shen Qing sent to Qi Futang every now and then?

Don't tell me that the money you spent on visiting brothels is your own!"

Although Yangling Hou didn't care about the affairs in the backyard, he was still clear about Mu Ziqian's movements. However, as a man, Yangling Hou felt that visiting brothels was not a big deal, it was just for fun, so he didn't expose Mu Ziqian, but let him go.

Seeing his secret exposed, Mu Ziqian panicked immediately, and instantly threw away the respect he should have for Yangling Hou, "Father, what nonsense are you talking about! When did I visit a brothel? I only have Fu'er in my heart! You can't think that I am the same as you just because you behaved improperly!"

Being openly accused of misbehavior by his own son, Yangling Hou suddenly felt a surge of blood, stood up and strode towards Mu Ziqian.

Today, he would teach Mu Ziqian a lesson no matter what!

Seeing the slap of Yangling Marquis coming towards him, Mu Ziqian subconsciously wanted to dodge, but his legs were inconvenient and the space for movement was limited, so in the end Mu Ziqian could only let the slap of Yangling Marquis fall on his face.

The face of Yangling Marquis's wife sank, and she stood up to stop him, but it was obviously too late.

There was a crisp sound of "slap", and the expected pain did not come. Mu Ziqian was surprised and saw the thin Lin Xuefu blocking in front of him.

After blocking the slap for Yangling Marquis's wife, Lin Xuefu blocked another slap for Mu Ziqian, and it was a solid slap from Yangling Marquis in anger.

The room was quiet again. Lin Xuefu's cheek swelled up quickly. She raised her hand to wipe the blood from her mouth, and then she said earnestly: "Uncle, aunt, cousin, don't quarrel, okay?

Today's events were all caused by Shen Qing, but we are fighting among ourselves. Isn't this just what Shen Qing wants? "

The three began to ponder. Seeing this, Lin Xuefu continued to persuade them: "Tonight, Shen Qing can fight back and give us the 'Lost Soul'. In the future, he can feed us the deadly poison. Even so, do we still have to fight like this?"

Yangling Hou was the first to react, his eyes full of guilt, "Xuefu, you are right. We can't go on like this. Shen Qing is our common enemy."

After speaking, he looked at Lin Xuefu's already red and swollen cheeks and said with concern: "Does it hurt?"

Lin Xuefu shook her head decisively, "It's just some flesh wounds. Xuefu can bear it. As long as my uncle, aunt and cousin stop quarreling, it's worth it for Xuefu to do anything. "

Seeing Lin Xuefu being so sensible, Yangling Hou's wife and Mu Ziqian were distressed. Although they looked at Yangling Hou with anger, they chose to keep silent.

They couldn't let Lin Xuefu take this slap in vain.

After the farce, the four of them could finally talk about business in a calm manner.

However, now the eyes of the three of them were obviously on Lin Xuefu.

Fearing that the three of them would quarrel again, Lin Xuefu did not shirk responsibility and simply laid out the situation in front of her. "According to Doctor Liang, the 'lost soul' in our bodies has passed the ten-day period, which means that the earliest day for the 'lost soul' to merge is the fifth day of May, the Dragon Boat Festival. Before that, our chance to smell the soul-guiding incense was only the meeting on the fourth day of the first lunar month. "

It is obvious that the trap they thought they had set for Shen Qing was actually known and used by Shen Qing, who almost caught them all.

This also explains why Shen Qing, who was always difficult to talk to before, was so reasonable on the fourth day of the New Year.

On the surface, they wanted to delay time so that Shen Qing could inhale enough soul-guiding incense, but the fact was the opposite. All this was expected by Shen Qing. Even if the wife of Yangling Marquis did not take the initiative to mention Lin Xuefu that day, Shen Qing would find a reason to call Lin Xuefu over.

Thinking of this, the coldness in Lin Xuefu's eyes froze into ice. She underestimated Shen Qing.
