Gu Jing was silent and picked up a new tea cup. Qin Xin was so frightened that her body trembled slightly and did not dare to move.

After Gu Jing took a sip of the hot tea, he put down the tea cup and ordered, "Bring the mother and son in for me!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

A small servant quickly took the order and walked out of the house quickly.

People hurried out and came back in a hurry, the little housekeeper's face was a little stiff, and he replied with a bow: "His Royal Highness, the mother and son refused to come in with the servant."

There are too many people watching outside now, and the little inner servant did not dare to force Zhang's mother and son, and could only return empty-handed.

As these words fell, the temperature in the room plummeted, as if the early summer had entered the cold autumn at once.

Qin Xin: "..."

Gu Jing's face darkened again. He originally wanted to say that this was the trouble Qin Xin caused herself, and she should solve it herself.

However, when the words came to his lips, he hesitated again.

Now people all over the capital know that he holds Qin Xin in the palm of his hand, and it hurts like his life. If he lets Qin Xin go out alone, what will others think?

!

Gu Jing stood up abruptly, brushed off his robe casually, and said coldly, "I'll go out and have a look.

you too. "

The "you" in his mouth obviously refers to Qin Xin.

Qin Xin didn't dare to say no to Gu Jing, so she quickly followed, following every step of the way, like Gu Jing's shadow.

Before they reached the gate, they could already hear a woman's sharp clamor from outside the gate: "I have a letter of appointment!"

"This country has national laws, even the second prince can't rob someone else's daughter-in-law!"

When Qin Xin followed Gu Jing to the courtyard behind the gate, what she saw was Mrs. Zhang waving the letter of appointment arrogantly.

Zhang Shi also saw Gu Jing and Qin Xin. Wearing an apricot-yellow prince's robe, Gu Jing was handsome and straight, and he had an extravagant temperament like walking in the courtyard.

Zhang Shi didn't dare to look at Gu Jing more, and his eyes immediately fell on Qin Xin who was behind him, and his eyes lit up.

This girl is not only beautiful, but also has a five-point similarity between her eyebrows and eyes, especially the shape of her eyes and mouth, but Zhao Aman is a little fatter than her, and her facial features appear rounder. It is fairer and more delicate, and the makeup on her face is very delicate. The clothes and jewelry on her body are not ordinary, even the wife of their county magistrate is not as well dressed as her.

No wonder the letter said that Li Erya is now rich!

Zhang's memory of Li Erya has been blurred, but now that she sees Qin Xin, she is convinced.

It really was a mistake just now, this one is Li Erya, Li Erya on the appointment letter, her daughter-in-law, this time, I definitely did not find the wrong person.

With a happy expression on Zhang Shi's face, he took a few steps towards Qin Xin excitedly, and shouted, "Daughter-in-law! Wei Niang finally found you!"

Xu Jinpeng parroted and shouted, "Daughter-in-law! Daughter-in-law!"

Qin Xin: "!"

Qin Xin's face turned black.

She didn't dare to look at Gu Jing's face at all, so she stared coldly at Mrs. Zhang, who was described as vulgar, and asked, "You dare to go to the Prince's Mansion to make trouble, what is your motive!"

"This is the Prince's Palace, there is no one you are looking for!"

Qin Xin repeatedly emphasized that the Prince's Mansion wanted to tell the Zhang family that this was not the Qin Mansion, and she should go to the Qin Mansion to find Qin Di.

However, in Zhang Shi's ears, he only felt that Qin Xin was deliberately using the prince to press her, which was to scare herself!

That's right, now that Li Erya has climbed up the high branch of the prince, how can she still admit this marriage! However, if she wanted to drive herself away in such a few words, she would be too underestimated.

"Daughter-in-law, you are obviously the daughter-in-law I ordered for Jinpeng."

Mrs Zhang cried and said, "Even if you turn to ashes, I know you."

When she called, the surrounding people were also in an uproar, and they all confirmed it.

That's right, the second prince's concubine is the Qin family girl who betrothed to the fool!

Mrs. Zhang said indifferently, "Daughter-in-law, I understand. It was the second prince who robbed a civilian's daughter as a concubine, right?"

"Daughter-in-law, I know your temperament, you have a pure and good temperament, and you must not be that kind of person who forgets his righteousness.

If you have any difficulties, just tell Wei Niang, Wei Niang will call the shots for you. "

Zhang's daughter-in-law shouted with sincerity, and her heart was hot.

The letter they received told them that Li Erya was adopted by the Hou Mansion and had a good marriage in the capital, but they did not expect it to be such a great marriage.

No wonder, no wonder Zhao Aman's couple would rather kill than escape marriage!

Hey, they both really can't think of it, why bother to the point of murder!

As the saying goes, when people climb up, water flows down.

Erya has such a good fortune, it is life, it is a blessing from her previous life, and their Xu family is not unreasonable. As long as you talk to yourself well and give you enough benefits, your family is not a must for Erya. of.

Given the status of the Xu family in Jiangyu County, no matter how much money you spend, you can always find another suitable girl for Jinpeng to be his daughter-in-law.

After thinking about it, Mrs Zhang didn't dare to show weakness on her face, for fear that Qin Xin would not admit her account, she sat down on the ground and poured it out, "Lang Lang Qian Kun, Second Prince Duo, is there any justice in this world? It's gone!"

With Zhang's scolding, Gu Jing's face became more and more ugly, and he instructed the guards: "Come here, shoot out."

When Gu Jing left the palace to open the mansion, the emperor did not give him guards. Now the guards used by the prince's mansion are all strong men bought later to act as guards.

The guards immediately took their orders and aggressively pressed towards the Zhang family with cold faces.

Zhang Shi was uneasy in his heart, but on the surface he still looked like a dead pig not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. He sat on the ground and howled, "Murder is silenced, they are going to kill and silence!"

"Everyone has seen it, these princes and nobles bully us ordinary people like this!"

"Jin Peng, it's useless to be your mother, you can't even keep your daughter-in-law."

The more and more Zhang's howl, the louder and louder, all the onlookers watched with relish, and felt that the play was also too good-looking, even more exciting than those performed by the actors in the opera garden.

Several men in the crowd looked up and down at Qin Xin with splendid eyes. From her beautiful face and slender jade neck all the way down, they thought of the various fragrant rumors of the second prince and that concubine in their minds.

A chubby man sighed enviously: "The second prince's favorite concubine is indeed the most beautiful in the world, she is still young, she will definitely be more charming in a few years.

It is no wonder that one woman can have two families. "

"That is!"

Another man echoed, "You don't even think about it, the dignified prince has countless reading women, and he has never seen any beautiful beauties. If he can look at it and put it in his heart, she is a stunning beauty!"

The more the men talked, the more lively they became. At the rear, Qin Zeyu was in the crowd, silently watching this scene, with dark pupils.

If it weren't for her sister's quick response, she would be the one who is in this dilemma now.

Whether he ordered the mother and son to be taken away, or brought them into the mansion for discussion, it would attract all kinds of speculations from passersby. Spread more and more outrageous.

It is always the women who suffer!

When the fool Xu Jinpeng heard that his daughter-in-law was dying, he became anxious and shouted, "Daughter-in-law, I want a daughter-in-law!"

He rushed towards Qin Xin excitedly, trying to pull her sleeve, "Daughter-in-law, come home with me!"

Qin Xin has been living in the Hou Mansion since she was reborn. She has never encountered such a scene in her life. When her complexion changed, Hua Rong screamed in shock and stepped back several steps.

Gu Jing quickly embraced Qin Xin's slender shoulders and said softly, "Don't be afraid."

Qin Xin's body trembled slightly, so pitiful.

Fearing that the fool would collide with the second prince, the guards could not take care of Mrs. Zhang for the time being, and hurriedly stopped Xu Jinpeng. Two of them grabbed Xu Jinpeng's arms one by one and prevented him from moving forward.

The head of the guard said coldly, "This is the Prince's Palace, not a place where you can make trouble! If you don't leave, don't blame us for being rude."

Seeing that his son was restrained, Mrs. Zhang became anxious, jumped up from the ground, and waved the letter of appointment, "Who made trouble! I just want to get my daughter-in-law back!"

"I have a letter of appointment as proof."

"I don't care that my daughter-in-law is broken. Anyway, we country people, it's not easy to save some money to beg a daughter-in-law, as long as the second prince returns the person to us."

Gu Jing's eyes were as cold as a bottomless pool, and he felt that he had lost all his face, but now that so many people were watching, he could only suppress his anger.

"Xin'er, it's alright."

He gently hugged Qin Xin and comforted him.

Qin Xin felt a burst of pain in her shoulders, and she was even more afraid, her face pale and weak.

Qin Xin insisted and denied to Mrs Zhang, "The person on this appointment letter is not me!"

"Not you?"

Mrs. Zhang laughed sarcastically, and reported Qin Xin's birth date again, "Lierya, Xin Chou, Jiawu, Gengchen, Jimao."

Qin Xin: "!"

Others don't know who this character belongs to, but Qin Xin herself is clear, her pupils shrink.

She and Qin Di were only two months apart. They were raised as twins in the Li family when they were children, and they each had their own household registration. Later, she was picked up by Zhongyi Hou’s mansion, but she never expected that her parents would give her household registration to her. Qin Di used it!

Of course Qin Xin couldn't recognize it, biting hard: "This is not my character!"

"You don't want to rely on me with a letter of appointment."

Qin Xin raised her chin higher and higher, and said to herself, yes, no one can prove that these characters belong to her.

"Head Guard Li, this is the Prince's Mansion. It's so noisy, what a formality! Quickly drive these two away."

Qin Xin pointed at Zhang's mother and son with a condescending attitude, and ordered to the chief guard in a cold voice.

She was embarrassed, annoyed and hated in her heart, but she felt that the onlookers around her were pointing at her, making her want to dig a hole in the ground to get in.

Now she just wants to expel the mother and son of the Xu family quickly, and then make a long-term plan.

The guards dragged Xu Jinpeng directly to one direction of the street. While struggling, Xu Jinpeng called out loudly for his mother. Mrs. Zhang was worried about her son, and hurriedly chased and pulled the guards, shouting: "Killing! Let go of my son, hurry up. Let go of my son!"

Amid the clamor, a group of yamen ran towards this side, and it was the yamen from Jingzhao Mansion who came.

The head of the class and the servants hurriedly came to salute Gu Jing, and the head of the class said, "His Royal Highness, the second prince, someone went to the Jingzhao Mansion to report to the official and said that there was trouble here, so Master Hu ordered the younger ones to come and take a look."

As soon as Mr. Zhang saw the yacha, as if he saw a savior, he shouted to the head of the class: "Master Qingtian, we didn't make trouble.

We are the daughter-in-law who brought back my son. "

"The emperor violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Why didn't he admit it now, can the emperor rob the common people?"

The head of the class is the first and the two are big. This matter involves the second prince. They don't want to make it a big issue, but this rude country woman is so unrepentant, she doesn't know her life or death.

The yamen were not idle, and began to drive away the people who were watching the fun. At this moment, a thirty-six- or seven-year-old man in a golden robe suddenly squeezed out of the crowd, running and shouting: " Let let, trouble let let!"

An anxious look.

"My son, so you brought Jinpeng here."

Master Xu quickly rushed to Mrs. Zhang's side, and the couple exchanged glances calmly.

Just now, Mrs. Zhang pretended to be a black face, but Master Xu put on a white face and deliberately reprimanded Mrs. Zhang: "This is a private matter, what are you doing so everyone knows what to do?

Isn't that shameful enough?

! "

Master Xu bowed his hands to the head of the class again, and said politely: "This head of the class, don't have your surname Xu, this is a cheap man and a dog. Hey, I'm so sorry for disturbing you and a few poor masters."

He covered it with his sleeves and stuffed money into the head of the class, "If there is something big that can't be talked about, why bother everyone.

I think there must be some 'misunderstanding' in this, just make it clear. "

On the surface, he said this to the head of the class, but in fact he said it to Gu Jing.

Gu Jingyi moved his brows slightly, and heard Master Xu's unspoken voice.

To put it bluntly, the Xu family is just discussing some benefits.

Gu Jing also doesn't want to go to the government. At that time, no matter if he is justified or not, it will be him who will be embarrassed. If it spreads to his father's ears, he is afraid that he will be even more dissatisfied with himself. .

Gu Jing said lightly: "Maybe there is some 'misunderstanding'."

When Master Xu and Mrs Zhang heard the words, they were relieved.

Sure enough, how could a noble like the second prince want to put his housework in the court and let others see a joke.

The head of the class is also eager to do this. For him, it doesn't matter what the inside story is, and it doesn't matter whether Qin Xin has a marriage contract with this fool.

Seeing that all the people who were watching the lively around were almost scattered, the class leader was about to greet his subordinates to leave. At this moment, a medium-sized yacha ran over panting, shouting: " Head of class, head of class!"

The yacha quickly ran to the head of the class and whispered a few words to him.

The face of the class leader changed, and his expression when he looked at Qin Xin became extremely subtle. He first ordered the yacha: "Bring the family surnamed Xu back to Jingzhao Mansion."

"..."

"..."

Master Xu and Mrs. Zhang were both dumbfounded. They didn't understand why the class leader suddenly turned his face.

The class head bowed to Gu Jing in embarrassment and said, "Your Highness, Second Prince, I am afraid that the Qin family from your house will go to Jingzhao Mansion with the younger one. Master Hu said that there is a case that requires Qin family to go to court."

Qin Xin was both shocked and ashamed. To her surprise, the class leader suddenly proposed to take her to Jingzhao Mansion. She was ashamed that she was only a concubine now, and even a mere class leader dared to call her Qin.

Gu Jing's expression also changed slightly. Naturally, he couldn't just take Qin Xin away by the head of the class. He held Qin Xin's shoulders tighter and said, "I'll go with her."

He looked affectionate.

After reacting, Mrs Zhang shouted unconvincingly: "Why do you want to take us to Jingzhao Mansion, we didn't break the law!"

"Let us go!"

No matter how loudly Zhang's clamor, their family of three could not resist the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, and they were brought back to Jingzhao Mansion.

In comparison, Qin Xin's treatment was much better than that of the Xu family. She arrived in the carriage of the Second Prince's Mansion. Along the way, she and Gu Jing were relatively speechless.

Qin Xin's heart was filled with an uneasy feeling. With the silence of the road, the feeling became stronger and stronger, as if she was running in the dark forest, and some unknown beast was chasing her behind her. of.

She seemed to hear the roar of the beast in her ears.

She came to the court in Jingzhao Mansion restlessly.

In the court, there is a school of majesty and solemnity.

Jing Zhaoyin sat upright on the high hall, flanked by yachas holding wind and fire sticks on both sides, and a familiar man kneeling on the ground below, with heavy shackles on his hands and feet.

Qin Xin recognized the man at once, her biological father Li Jinzhu.

What the hell is going on here?

!

Qin Xin subconsciously wanted to call her father, but she held back.

"Big..." Li Jinzhu, who was terrified, shouted as if grabbing a driftwood when he saw Qin Xin coming.

Qin Xin gave him a wink, and he closed his mouth again, without the word "ya" coming out.

The three members of the Xu family are all civilians, so they all knelt on the ground. That fool Xu Jinpeng didn't know where this place was, so he asked stupidly, "Father, mother, when will we bring our daughter-in-law home?"

Master Xu was uneasy, wishing to sew up his son's mouth, and reprimanded: "Shut up."

"Master Hou, this way please."

Outside the court, another unfamiliar male voice came. Qin Xin looked back and saw that Qin Zhun had also been announced by the yacha.

At this time, a lot of people were surrounded outside Jingzhao Mansion. When those people saw Jingzhao Yin opened, they all swarmed to watch the excitement. After a while, the gate was surrounded by water, making it difficult for people to walk.

It was the Yachai who gave a cold reprimand, and the people retreated to both sides to make way for Qin Zhun.

Qin Zhun's face is not very good-looking. He has never been in court in the past 30 years. This year has been unlucky. In just a few months, this is the second time that he has been in court in Jingzhao Mansion.

Qin Zhun endured the displeasure in his heart and bowed to Gu Jing first, and then Qin Xin also blessed Qin Zhun and shouted, "Father".

Jing Zhaoyin didn't dare to show any official prestige in front of the second prince, and after some greetings, he said politely: "This official has received a case of one woman and two promises today, and I will all the relevant people together. announced."

He first looked at Master Xu and asked, "Xu Dayong, has Linglang engaged a girl from the Li family?"

Mr. Xu is a commoner. When he went to court, he was trembling with panic. He nodded honestly: "Yes, yes, my lord, I... Caomin also has a letter of appointment and a letter of appointment as proof."

Master Xu glared at Mrs Zhang and urged: "Don't hurry up and take out the appointment letter and Geng's post."

For Mrs. Zhang, this appointment letter and Geng Tie are like the key to their Xu family's door to wealth. She has always kept it close to her body and dare not let others handle it, but at this moment, she can only take the appointment letter and Geng Tie distressedly. came out and presented it to the head of the class.

Jing Zhaoyin shifted his gaze to the left, and asked Li Jinzhu again with a dignified expression: "Li Jinzhu, did you promise your only daughter to the Xu family?"

Li Jinzhu replied in a trembling voice, "Sir, yes."

Jing Zhaoyin also instructed the master to take out a household registration and let Li Jinzhu confirm: "Is the name and birth date on this household registration yours?"

Li Jinzhu nodded: "Yes, my lord."

Seeing this scene, Qin Xin's heart sank little by little, and she felt like she was soaked in a cold swamp.

She wanted to speak, but couldn't make a sound.

Jing Zhaoyin personally checked the name and birth date on the household registration, Geng Tie and appointment letter, and confirmed that it was the same person.

Mr. Xu was afraid that his family would be blackmailed by the government, so he said uneasily: "Sir, Caomin is a good citizen. When I got married with the Li family, I followed the rules. There are Caomin's hometown..." He wanted to say that there was a matchmaker for As evidence, but suddenly thought that the matchmaker was dead, he changed his mind and said, "My family and friends in my hometown are the evidence."

Zhang Shi nodded frequently.

After the couple was reprimanded by the yacha, they quickly closed their mouths.

Jing Zhaoyin asked Li Jinzhu again, "Is this household registration, Geng Tie, and Li Erya written in the letter of appointment your only daughter?"

Li Jinzhu: "Yes, my lord."

He couldn't say anything other than "yes".

Jing Zhaoyin continued to ask, "Li Jinzhu, then who is your only daughter, Li Erya?"

"..." Li Jinzhu shrank his neck and turned his head to look at Qin Xin subconsciously.

Qin Xin's face turned pale again, as white as a wall.

Qin Zhun was already sweating on his back, and he hurriedly wanted to talk to the mud, "Master Hu..."

"Snapped!"

Jing Zhaoyin knocked on the gavel, interrupting Qin Zhun: "On the court, no noise is allowed!"

This Li Jinzhu was sent to Jingzhao Mansion by the soldiers of the Five Cities today.

Li Jinzhu committed the crime of homicide and escape. According to the law, he should be sent back to Jiangyu County for trial.

As a result, Pei Qi stopped him and told him not to be so busy sending him away. The words inside and out were meaningful.

Jing Zhaoyin wanted to ask questions, but Pei Qi kept his mouth shut and only gave him a household registration from Jiangyu County.

It didn't take long for someone to report that someone was making trouble in the Second Prince's Mansion. He kept saying that the second prince was forcibly robbing people's daughters, Qin Xin's first daughter and second Xu Yunyun. The father-in-law came and passed the emperor's word...

The case must be tried today before he can explain to the emperor.

Jing Zhaoyin didn't even look at Qin Zhun, and asked Li Jinzhu again, "Li Jinzhu, who is your only daughter, Li Erya?

Can you be in the hall? "

Li Jinzhu: "..."

Li Jinzhu was flustered and confused, and he had no masters in his heart.

He and Zhao Aman were fugitives. They were afraid that they would act together, which would be too eye-catching. They often walked apart.

Naturally, Li Jinzhu couldn't recruit his biological daughter. Besides, this marriage was originally intended for Erya. If Erya didn't run away from the marriage, there would be no such thing as the latter!

The more Li Jinzhu thought about it, the more he hated it. He gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, the little girl is not in court. The little girl was picked up by the Qin family, and now she is the third Qin family..."

"Snapped!"

Jing Zhao Yin slapped the gavel again.

"Li Jinzhu, it seems that you can't fight anymore."

Jing Zhaoyin directly ordered, "Come here, fight."

The yamen rudely kicked Li Jinzhu. Li Jinzhu screamed and fell to the ground.

There were two yachas who held fire sticks.

Qin Xin almost blurted out to call Dad again.

She also has feelings for Li Jinzhu, her biological father. In the previous life, the family of four was exiled together in Lingnan, and they supported each other before they survived in Lingnan.

Seeing that Li Jinzhu was going to suffer at this moment, she was anxious and afraid.

But she couldn't admit that she was Li Erya, and naturally she couldn't speak for Li Jinzhu.

Qin Zhun and Gu Jing both knew that Qin Xin was Li Jinzhu's biological daughter. Once Li Jinzhu recognized it, the second prince's concubine, one daughter and two Xu, would become the laughing stock of everyone in the capital.

Gu Jing said indifferently: "Master Hu, as a dignified Jing Zhaoyin, you are the parental official of the capital. What are you doing with such trivial matters if you don't solve the cases of robbery, murder and stealing for the common people!"

Qin Zhun again planned to talk to the muddy: "Master Hu, dare to ask who sued the first woman and the second Xu?

Ben Hou, I'm afraid this is a misunderstanding, right? "

At the same time, he gave Master Xu a wink and asked him to deny it quickly. It would be no good for anyone if the matter got bigger.

Mr. Xu and Mrs. Zhang were stunned for a long time. They didn't receive Qin Zhun's eyes at all. They stared blankly at Li Jinzhu, who was lying on the ground, for fear that they would be the next person to be beaten.

"beat!"

Jing Zhaoyin said again.

The yamen didn't hesitate anymore, and the fire stick in their hands hit Li Jinzhu's buttocks directly.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

The stick fell like raindrops, one stick after another, it was a direct hit.

"Ouch! Ouch!"

Li Jinzhu screamed and screamed in agony.

The officers beat each other harder with each other. After hitting a dozen boards, Li Jinzhu finally couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Sir, Caomin Zhao, Zhao!"

Li Jinzhu trembled in pain, looked up at Qin Xin, and called out in a hoarse voice, "Yes, it's her..."

Qin Xin's body trembled violently.

Gu Jing's face was as gloomy as ink dyed.

Jing Zhaoyin made a gesture, and the yamen stopped the fire stick in their hands, and then rudely pulled Li Jinzhu from the ground and asked him to kneel.

Li Jinzhu was panting weakly and shivering.

Jing Zhaoyin: "Come on."

Li Jinzhu slowly raised his finger to Qin Xin, and said, "She is Caomin's daughter, Li Erya."
