The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 422 Abandoned Son (1)

"You...why did you hurt me so much!" Jiang Quan said angrily.

Butterfly lowered its head and just turned a deaf ear. Jiang Ruan, who was sitting on the side, smiled slightly, and Die Die would of course come out to testify for her, not only because of her promise, but also because Die Die deeply hated the Jiang family. At the beginning, Jiang Susu sold the butterfly because of the Zihe car. It was Jiang Susu's own fault. Anyway, she was a maid who had been with her since she was a child, but she sold it directly to the lowest kiln. What kind of place is that kiln? When a girl enters it, it is like entering a fire pit. It is natural to imagine the life of Butterfly. In fact, as soon as Jiang Susu sold Butterfly, Jiang Ruan asked Luzhu to go out and bribe the old bustard in the kiln, and has been secretly paying attention to Butterfly's every move. It won't let her die, but it won't make her feel better either. Butterfly has been with Jiang Susu for so many years, and Xia Yan and Jiang Susu know something about what they do. Jiang Ruan knows that this is an excellent chess piece, which will come in handy one day.

For example, at this moment, the appearance of this chess piece has already caused Jiang Quan to lose more than half of it. She appeared in front of Die Die and promised to save her from fire and water as long as Die Die was willing to testify. Perhaps when Die Die was first sold, she would not agree to this condition when she heard this condition, because Xia Yan is a shrewd person, and the maids she chose for Jiang Susu were all extremely loyal. But after such a long time, the dying butterfly who was tortured could not even save her own life, so how could she care about loyalty? For so many years, all she had left was a deep hatred for the Jiang family. If it wasn't for Xia Yan's mother and daughter, if it wasn't for Jiang Quan, how could she have been sold to such a lowly place? Time will change everything, as time goes by, hate can turn into love, and love can also turn into hate, so Jiang Ruan said the conditions, Die agreed without saying a word.

"Jiang Shangshu," Sun Xu said with a straight face, "The court is not a place for you to mess around at will, you should listen to the witnesses first."

Before Jiang Quan could speak in the future, Die Die kowtowed to Sun Xu and said, "My lord, this servant is here to explain the crimes committed by my wife." She lowered her head, but her voice was clear and clear, just enough to reach In the ears of the people watching the excitement outside: "At the time when my wife was alive, my wife was just a concubine at that time. Although the master loved my aunt and miss, my wife was sitting in the position of the mistress. My aunt has always been proud and arrogant. Coming from a family of high officials and aristocrats, naturally I am not willing to be inferior to others, although the food in the Shangshu Mansion is not bad, and sometimes the status is even higher than that of my wife, but my aunt is still dissatisfied."

Although Die Die's words seem to be just stating the facts, it feels very different when it reaches other people's ears. Who doesn't know how Xia Cheng got his title in the first place, if it wasn't for his brother's early death, he, a bastard, would not have been able to get his turn anyway. Even the titles were obtained after Xia Yan entered the Minister's Mansion. Before that, she was just the daughter of a petty official and concubine. Where could she be called an official noble, she preferred to have the face to say so herself. If it was really a woman from a noble family, why would Jiang Quan marry Zhao Mei instead of Xia Yan? A concubine's daughter still loves vanity so much, and according to Die Die's words, Xia Yan's status in the Shangshu Mansion is even higher than that of Zhao Mei.

Originally, although everyone had heard the rumor that Jiang Quan favored Xia Yan, they thought it was something after Zhao Mei's death. It turned out that Jiang Quan had gone too far not long after Zhao Mei married into the Shangshu Mansion. Could it be that he took a fancy to the power in other people's houses, and once he found out that it would not bring any benefits to his official career, he revealed his true colors.

Butterfly continued: "Later, my aunt thought about it. As an official of the court, the master couldn't find a reason to divorce his wife for no reason, so he would have to live under others for the rest of his life. Unwilling, he wanted to poison his wife to death. It was my aunt who bought foreign poisons and mixed them in Mrs. Xian's daily meals. Mrs. Xian was poisoned little by little. Later, the poison accumulated more and more, and she died. And all of this, the master also I know, one time my aunt's poison was discovered by the master, and the master told my aunt to be careful, and don't leave any excuses." After finishing speaking, Die Die kowtowed at Sun Xu: "My lord, what the girl said One sentence is true, and I dare not lie about half a sentence."

"It's nonsense! It's nonsense!" Jiang Quan pointed at Butterfly and cursed angrily: "Who gave you the courage to talk nonsense here to disturb people's hearts, Butterfly, don't forget who you are! You are a servant of my Jiang family! "

Butterfly shook her head: "Master probably forgot that Butterfly's deed of prostitution is no longer here, and Butterfly is no longer a member of the Shangshu Mansion." When she said this, although she tried her best to suppress something, there was still a hint of hatred in her eyes.

Jiang Quan was at a loss for words, and Sun Xu slapped the gavel again: "Silence!"

Butterfly knelt on the ground and said in a startling way: "If you go back to your lord, the girl still has evidence to say!"

Jiang Quan was taken aback, and Sun Xu said in a deep voice, "Where is the evidence?"

Butterfly glanced at Jiang Ruan, who was sitting peacefully on one side of the seat. The smile on his lips seemed to have not been shaken a bit from the beginning to now. Butterfly felt at ease, and said frankly: "It's just living in Madam. In the house, because the medicine was so precious at the beginning, and the wife didn't know when the wife would be terminally ill, she thought that the medicine might be useful in the future, so she ordered the minnv to keep it. The minnv buried the medicine that day It was under the tree in the madam’s yard. But the prescription was probably still there. Later, the master said it was useful, so he put it in a box in the study. Coincidentally, for some reason, the master probably forgot about the box. Once, Mrs. Let the servant clean up the study, and the servant put the box into the innermost wooden box. The wooden box will not be touched for many years, because it contains old things."

Zhao Guang cupped his hands at Sun Xu, and the tone in his words was unquestionable: "Master Sun, since all the evidence has been presented, should we ask someone to search for it?"

"Naturally." Sun Xu said with a serious expression, "This official has ordered the officers and soldiers to search the Minister's Mansion."

Jiang Quan sneered: "It's ridiculous, you think you can convict me with a few words of nonsense? Butterfly, I think you are not afraid of death!" out of something. Not to mention that he never directly intervened when Xia Yan poisoned him, even Xia Yan himself would not be so stupid as to leave evidence. Xia Yan is careful and considerate in doing things, and will clean up any grievances. Although he didn't know why Butterfly accepted Jiang Ruan's favor to make a fake evidence like this, but Jiang Quan also believed that not everyone could enter the Shangshu Mansion. Especially the study room, which is the most important thing, he has to check it several times a day. He has never heard of any wooden boxes or boxes.

Butterfly probably only cared about lying, but she couldn't produce any real evidence. If you can't get it out, you can't convict, so what about the butterfly? Thinking of this, he went to see Jiang Ruan's expression. But seeing Jiang Ruan sitting upright, she seemed to notice his gaze, and turned her head to smile at him. Jiang Ruan's smile was even more calm than Jiang Quan's, and there seemed to be some subtle ridicule hidden in it. That gaze immediately woke up Jiang Quan's heart, and he couldn't help feeling a little scared. It's not that Jiang Quan doesn't know how evil his daughter is. For so many years, neither the Xia family nor her have been able to ask for benefits from her. Jiang's mansion is a fortress of iron and steel, and they can't keep her from coming up with some weird ways to harm people.
