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

Shen Qing responded and handed the two people who were having a good time drinking in the side room to Yun Xiaoxiao, while he walked toward Qi Futang with Chanyi.

As for Yangling Marquis's intention of calling him over, it was also very simple. He was just being punished by the emperor and wanted to find a punching bag.

When Shen Qing came over, Qifutang was already full of people. It was even more lively than the day when Mrs. Yanglinghou came to investigate but she took away the land deed of the shop. Even Mu Ziqian, who could only rely on a carriage to travel, was even more lively. Here it comes, lying on the ground in a nondescript manner.

Shen Qing walked to the seat reserved for herself, and as soon as she sat down, Marquis Yangling's sullen voice rang out, "Shen Qing, do you know why His Majesty called me into the palace just now?"

Shen Qing responded directly without thinking, "I don't know."

Yang Linghou's face instantly darkened, and his voice suddenly rose a few points, "I don't know? Don't you know? Don't you know what you did today?"

Shen Qing smiled and looked at Marquis Yangling calmly, "What did I do today? Of course I helped my father fulfill his responsibilities as a husband."

Speaking of this, Shen Qing seemed to have started talking. Without waiting for Marquis Yangling's response, he continued: "Speaking of which, my father did not do this properly. He thought that the three aunts would be killed." Being raised outside, my mother wouldn’t be sad if she didn’t know about it, and my three aunts wouldn’t be uncomfortable with becoming concubines, but I never thought that this would be a deception for my mother, and an grievance for the three aunts. I can’t Seeing my father continue to make mistakes like this, I took it upon myself to put things right, so that my father wouldn't be criticized in the future. What's wrong with this?"

A hint of deep shock flashed across Yanglinghou's face, to prevent him from being criticized in the future?

Isn’t this just to avoid being criticized in the future?

Because now his reputation has been completely ruined by Shen Qing!

But what Shen Qing said was so upright and awe-inspiring, and it sounded somewhat reasonable at first glance. Marquis Yangling calmed down a little, smoothed over his thoughts, and then continued to question: "What do you mean by setting things right?" Let’s not go into details for now, just talk about how much trouble you brought to me by acting in such a high profile. You probably don’t know yet. The last time you carried Aunt Xu into the palace, His Majesty fined me a full year’s salary. , today I am exempted from three months of morning court. Do you know that things are changing rapidly in the court, and if I don't go to court for three months, how low will the status of our Yangling Marquis Mansion be? "

The more he spoke, the angrier he became, and by the end, Marquis Yangling's voice was almost roaring.

Such a result was expected by Shen Qing, but Shen Qing was not prepared to argue with him about whether to go to court early or not, and went to the core of the problem, "Does father know that the mistakes he committed back then will bear bitter consequences today?"

The facts are very clear. If Yangling Marquis hadn't been so selfish and pretended to be smart to raise the three aunts outside the house, Shen Qing would have been unable to take them over even if he wanted to.

Marquis Yangling was instantly at a loss and could only maintain his dignity by shouting angrily, "Are you accusing me?"

Shen Qing looked into his eyes and her voice was neither high nor low, "My father made a mistake by raising his three aunts outside the house for many years, and the current result is what he deserves."

There was a "pop" sound, and Marquis Yangling slammed the table and cursed angrily, "You bastard! How dare you talk to me like that?"

Shen Qing's face remained as usual, without a trace of fear, and he continued to speak despite Yanglinghou's anger, "Father is so flattering and straightforward, I am afraid that sooner or later the Yanglinghou Mansion's many years of foundation will be destroyed."

Marquis Yangling's already ugly face suddenly turned gloomy, and he slapped the table again. The teacup shook, and a few drops of tea soup faintly spattered out.

"Shen Qing, I think you are really lawless!"

After saying that, he looked out the door and said, "Come here! Take Shen Qing back to Tinglan Courtyard. No one is allowed to let her out without my order!"

This time, Marquis Yangling was well prepared and had a group of guards guard outside the courtyard in advance, in order to prevent any servants from crawling in and out due to Shen Qing's threat. He had already stepped on a trap once, Marquis Yangling Will never step in again.

Hearing that Marquis Yangling was preparing to place Shen Qing under house arrest, a look of joy flashed across the faces of Madam Yangling Marquis and Mu Ziqian at the same time. They had not yet settled the matter with Shen Qing over the previous house arrest of Shen Qing.

Hearing this, Shen Qing couldn't help laughing and reminded her kindly, "Father, my father is drinking with Prince Lu in my courtyard right now. Are you sure you want to touch me?"

Shen Qing had already figured out Yanglinghou's temperament. He was obsessed with saving face, selfish, bullying, and afraid of the strong.

So as long as Yininghou's mansion is still there, even if she demolishes Yanglinghou's mansion, Yanglinghou can only endure it.

Sure enough, the moment he heard Shen Yi'an's name, Marquis Yangling calmed down and dismissed all the guards who had already reached the door and were about to attack Shen Qing. His voice also softened a lot, and he was obviously prepared to do something hard. She couldn't be soft and said, "Qingqing, I know that you still have resentment about Xue Fu's entry into the family before. This is why these incidents happened again and again. But you must know that you are from the Yangling Marquis Mansion after all. Both will be prosperous and ruined, Yanglinghou Mansion will be in disrepute, what benefits will you get? "

Yangling Marquis remembered that Shen Qing used to be a very nice person to get along with. She kept every word he said in her heart. Now, she probably felt really wronged, so as long as he could persuade her with reason and emotion, the matter would be over. So he continued, "Xue'er told me before that you are kind-hearted. It was indeed inappropriate for your mother and I to let Xuefu marry into the family, but the matter has passed after all, and you broke Qian'er's legs, so the matter is offset. As for today's matter, I will not pursue it anymore. You just need to do your duty as the mistress of the Yangling Marquis Mansion in the future. That's enough."

The Yangling Marquis Mansion was in a mess during this period, which made Yangling Marquis miss the diligent and virtuous Shen Qing even more.

The most important thing is that when he came back just now, he went to the account office to check. Now there is no money in the account. He was fined this year's salary. It is definitely not enough to rely on those shops and farms. Therefore, if Yangling Marquis's Mansion wants to maintain the previous rich life, it can only let Shen Qing take out the dowry again.

Before, after Shen Qing took back the less part of the dowry from Lin Xuefu, he sent most of the valuables to the bank in the city that night, and locked a small part in his yard for emergency use.

For this, the wife of Yangling Marquis was still regretful. If she had known that this would happen, she should have hinted to Shen Qing to send her more things. After all, the things sent out were not considered her dowry, and she couldn't take them back even if she wanted them.

However, the things that Shen Qing had sent to Qi Futang before were more than enough to maintain a year of chic life as long as the people of the Mu family did not gamble or whore.

However, Yangling Marquis was reluctant to give them up.

Hearing this, Shen Qing immediately understood Yangling Hou's intention. He was still planning to take her dowry.

However, this time, Yangling Hou might not get what he wanted.
