Chapter 249 They were screwed this time
The Queen Mother felt sorry for Wei Fenghua for hitting her head against the pillar.
She was so angry that she issued an imperial decree and sent a maid to the Marquis's residence to punish Shui Qiulan with thirty strokes of the cane.
Since your relationship with the old marquis is unclear, let's bear it together.
So the King of Wings in the front yard brought his men and brought the old marquis out.
He deliberately opened the gate of the marquis's mansion and held a stick in the front yard facing the gate.
Many sons of noble families nearby also came over to watch the fun.
The old marquis really didn't expect his daughter-in-law to do such a thing.
Not only did she go to the palace to complain, she also threw all kinds of dirty water on him and Shui Qiulan.
He did want to support his eldest grandson to inherit the Marquisate, but he did not want his third grandson to die.
No matter what, he is his grandson.
The original plan was to make the third grandson have a bad reputation and be hated by everyone in the capital, or have his limbs cut off.
In this way, he will not be able to inherit the Marquisate, and the emperor will not be able to object to changing the crown prince.
He did not have any murderous intention towards his daughter-in-law Wei Fenghua.
After all, he is not a fool. If she died because of the Marquis' Mansion, it would be discovered by the Emperor, the Duke of Zhenguo, and the Prince of Yi's Mansion.
Their mansion is about to be destroyed.
But he did not deny that he wanted to discipline his daughter-in-law so that she would not bully Shui Qiulan again.
Who would have thought that this time the daughter-in-law would change her previous temper and not only scold but also confront him when facing him.
She even shouted that her father and son were going to force her to death, and she actually ran and hit her head against a pillar to commit suicide.
Given her previous arrogant attitude towards him at home, he absolutely did not believe that she really wanted to commit suicide.
He must have pretended to hit his head against the pillar in front of the emperor and his ministers to frame him.
But it was useless for him to disbelieve, and no one would listen to his cries for justice.
Being pressed down on the bench in the yard, and being hit hard by sticks one after another, the old marquis gritted his teeth and gasped in pain.
I feel like I have lost all my face.
In his heart, he cursed his daughter-in-law Wei Fenghua and her ancestors for eighteen generations.
This woman is so sinister and evil. She has screwed them so badly this time.
He doesn't know yet that the whole capital is gossiping about him and the Second Madam.
Otherwise, he would be beaten so hard that he would gasp in pain and so angry that he would vomit blood.
King Yi supervised the execution, and those who were responsible for the punishment would not only not let off the stick, but would beat the person to death.
The old marquis will not only lose a layer of skin this time, but his health will also collapse in the future.
I have to rest at home often. Anyway, forget about running, jumping or riding a horse again.
Of course, the old marquis himself didn't know this at the moment.
By the time he realizes that his body is damaged, it will be too late.
The other side of the backyard.
The maid sent by the Queen Mother also had special skills in caning.
It can release water and may not seem too serious, but it can hurt your lungs.
Of course they would not hold back against Shui Qiulan.
It won't kill her, but she will often be weak and sick in the future.
Shui Qiulan had never been beaten since she was a child, except for the time when Wei Fenghua slapped her in the face.
That's why when the sticks fell on her, she was able to grit her teeth and endure it at first.
But later, the pain was so severe that I couldn't help but scream.
It was as miserable as it could be.
Everyone outside heard the screams coming from the backyard.
Someone couldn't help but murmur, "These two people must be guilty of something, because the sounds they made when they were punished are so similar."
"And if there was no problem, both of them wouldn't have been punished together."
He chuckled meaningfully again, "You and I are talking at the same time. I can't help but think of something wrong when I hear this."
This man is an old dandy nobleman, and he has always been at odds with the hypocritical old marquis.
Now that he can step on it, of course he is happy.
Therefore, he deliberately muttered it to the onlookers.
If he hadn't said so, no one would have made any wrong associations.
But after hearing this, they couldn't help but think of something wrong.
Everyone looked at Jiang Ji'an, who was standing in the corridor of the courtyard not far away with a gloomy face. There was sympathy in their eyes, or an indescribable expression of watching a show.
The natural sympathy is that he might have been cuckolded by his own father.
The dandy nobles even went so far as to get together and say that Jiang Ji'an was stupid.
Everyone sighed that Jiang Ji'an did not cherish Wei Fenghua, who was the most beautiful woman in the capital at that time, but insisted on treating such a fickle woman as a treasure.
They think that the talents among the nobles and the pillars of the country are just in vain.
If it were these playboys, they would never do such a stupid thing.
These playboys are often criticized and educated by their elders at home using Jiang Ji'an. Jiang Ji'an is a typical child of other people's families.
So they are extremely annoying.
Now that we have the chance to gloat over others' misfortune, we must seize the opportunity.
Jiang Ji'an is skilled in martial arts, so his hearing is naturally not weak.
The playboys watching outside didn't speak very loudly.
But he heard it all.
After hearing this, his face was not only extremely gloomy, but also very dark.
It would be a lie to say that I don't care or feel disgusted at all.
He even couldn't help but have a little doubt, is his father really coveting his woman?
After all, his father was too partial to the second wife and gave all the good things to her.
He paid great attention to his eldest son and his youngest son and devoted all his resources to their cultivation.
He treated his little daughter like a treasure, holding her in his hands for fear that she would fly away, and holding her in his mouth for fear that she would melt.
He also brought his eldest son up with him since he was young.
Although he is a grandson by blood, he is only a nephew in name.
His father's attitude towards his two grandsons was rather cold and distant.
Some even feel unhappy.
It is believed that the second son will be the heir to the Duke's Mansion in the future. He grew up with the Duke of Zhenguo and has no close relationship with the Marquis' Mansion.
The third brother is not good at either literature or martial arts, he is a typical dandy, and who knows if he will bring disaster to the mansion in the future.
He often said that if this mansion was handed over to the eldest brother, it would definitely be more glorious in the future.
They used to have a good relationship between father and son, and after listening to it so many times, he also felt that what his father said was quite right.
But now that I'm suspicious, the more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong.
After all, the second and third sons are his father’s grandsons.
Do I really owe this much compensation for my deceased uncle?
He originally felt bad about his father being beaten and seeing his miserable and humiliating appearance.
Now I inexplicably have a feeling that it's all my fault.
The old marquis had no idea that even his own son was now suspecting that he and Shui Qiulan were not innocent, otherwise he would have fainted from anger.
However, after being hit with thirty sticks, he fell into a semi-comatose state, breathing out more than breathing in.
Shui Qiulan in the backyard had no martial arts skills and fainted from the pain before the fight was over.
However, he was awakened by being splashed with water until the fight was over.
Only after Prince Yi and the palace maid left did Jiang Ji'an dare to ask the court physician to treat the two men's injuries and apply medicine.
After his father fell asleep after taking the medicine, he went to the backyard again.
When I pushed open the door of Shui Qiulan's room, I saw her lying on the bed with a pale face.
In the past he would have been heartbroken, but this time it was very complicated.
He didn't want to doubt whether she and his father had any abnormal relationship, but he couldn't help but think about it.
Therefore, she did not go in, but just watched quietly for a while, told the maid to take good care of her, and then turned and left.
He needs to calm down.
When the two sons of the second wife rushed back and saw their mother's miserable state, they developed a deep hatred towards Wei Fenghua.
But they couldn't take revenge immediately, after all, Wei Fenghua's background was too strong.
I can only endure and wait. Anyway, as long as I am in the Marquis' Mansion, I will always find an opportunity to take action.
In the future, this mansion will only belong to their second branch.
When the time comes, the mother and her two children from the first wife will be made to kneel down and cry in front of him.
The next day, the third young master Jiang Yilin rushed back from other place.
As soon as I entered the city, I heard a lot of rumors about the Marquis' Mansion.
Only after careful inquiry did we know about his mother's heroic deeds.
Everyone was shocked. How could he do such a thing?
Not to mention, it really feels good to listen to.
Then he did not return home, but went straight to the palace to find his mother.
