Kuai Chuan: What to do if you madly criticize beauties who refuse to be cannon fodder

Chapter 400 The General’s Mansion’s Cannon Fodder Next Wife (22)

Literati use pens as knives. They are dissatisfied with the injustices in this world, and use words to condense the mountains and rivers in this world. Literati writing articles is the most noble and great thing in this world. How can they gain fame and money by plagiarism!
The Eighth Prince's shock turned into anger.

He can't see others insulting the word literati, especially this kind of people who rely on articles to defraud status and money. He hates it deeply.

"Don't worry, I will give you an explanation for this matter."

Jiang Yu looked back out of the window.

"Explain? No one has explained to me the matter of the Hou Mansion so far, so what is mine?"

The Eighth Prince stared at her intently. Before, he just admired her, but now it was the first time that he really felt sorry for the girl in front of him.

"The Hou Mansion will definitely give you an explanation, don't worry."

Jiang Yu smiled and nodded.

"Well, I believe that His Majesty will definitely see clearly the grievances of our Marquis Mansion."

Seven days later, the spring hunt was grandly held in the royal hunting ground.

On this day, the entire mountain will be surrounded by guards, because at this time all the princes and princesses in the entire palace will stay in this hunting ground for three days, and the noble sons and daughters of the capital will also come with their parents.

The prey that has fattened up a mountain is waiting to be caught today, so the Spring Hunting Day can be regarded as the most solemn event in the capital. Of course, it is only open to the interior of the imperial court and the royal family.

Jiang Lai was invited as the general's wife, and the old lady could have gone with the general, but she didn't want to join in the fun, so she asked Xu Ruling to go with her, and Xu Ruling happened to be able to live in the old lady's room.

Spring hunting is the day that boys and girls in the capital look forward to the most, because on this day, they can justly get together. Boys see the tenderness and beauty of girls, and girls see the loyalty of boys.

Xu Ruling is no exception.

She knew that it would be hopeless for Tie Yi to marry her, and she was afraid of delaying her own life, so she attached great importance to this spring hunt, not only made herself a few sets of clothes suitable for the spring hunt, but also bought a lot of jewelry for it.

Just to find a good husband during the spring hunting.

She has already decided who the target is, the eighth prince, the handsome and knowledgeable prince who often shows his face, and the most important thing is to lean on the big tree of the sixth prince, who will become the emperor after the sixth prince ascends the throne. The younger brother, the eighth prince, has an extraordinary status.

For this spring hunt, Jiang Yu has already promised her that she will try her best to arrange for her to get closer to the eighth prince, and then use the status of Tie Yi's younger sister to raise her status. If the eighth prince is a smart person, he will definitely know what she means .

Xu Ruling was excited here, the night before departure, people from the government came to the door.

Because it was the general's wife who reported to the official, how could they dare to be negligent, and they began to investigate after entering the mansion.

This matter also alarmed the old lady, Jiang Lai made it clear to her that the account was short of 8000 taels in the first half of the year, and this amount almost made the old lady faint again.

"8000 taels! So much less?!"

"This is true. My daughter-in-law feels that someone in this mansion must be embezzling and embezzling."

"Your words, don't you have doubts like spirits!"

Jiang Lai nodded unabashedly.

"Mother, I know the relationship between Miss Xu and you, but this matter is very important. The 8000 taels of silver was obtained by the general in the first half of his life on the battlefield, and now it disappeared for no reason. Don't you want to know what happened?
If you believe Miss Xu, let them investigate. If you don't believe it, then cover him at this time, the general will be disappointed. "

The old lady sat down covering her head, her eyes were red.

"Why did you come, our whole mansion is in chaos!"

"Mother, if I don't come, you can see the fate of the Hou's Mansion? The General's Mansion is the next Hou's Mansion, and now it is only 8000 taels of silver, which may be nothing to the General. But in the future? If someone uses the name of the General No. Borrowing money outside, lending money... If these are caught, then the general's career will come to an end.

Your Majesty, this is what you hate the most. Mother, you live in seclusion and don’t understand these things, but as the general’s wife, I have to understand.

The trouble is serious, do you think the investigation should continue? "

The old lady was silent.

To her, nothing is as important as her son's future, Jiang Lai's words also gave the old lady a reminder.

Raising tigers is a problem.

She was able to forge the ledger to erase 1 taels before, so the 8000 taels is not too difficult for her.

"Blame me, give everything to her..."

"I have given the evidence to the government, and the husband who was in charge of the account was also arrested. Xu Ruling should be confessed now, and I will leave it to you to decide."

Jiang Lai had done everything he had to do.

The old lady knew what to do next.

On the other side, Xu Ruling, who was buying clothes in a tailor shop, was directly taken away by the government. She struggled and yelled all the way.

"Do you know who I am! How dare you treat me like this! My brother is General Tie Yitie! You want to be beheaded, don't you!"

Unable to help her struggle, Xu Ruling was directly put in prison to wait for the next step.

In the evening, the old lady came over. This was the first time she went out since entering Beijing, and she came to a place like a prison cell.

Seeing the old lady, Xu Ruling kept crying with tears falling like rain.

"Auntie! Auntie, you are finally here! General! Tell the general that I was bullied by these people! My aunt is here, you people can wait until you can't eat!"

Frightened, wronged and angry, Xu Ruling completely lost the calmness and generosity of the past, and his heart was full of wanting to kill the yamen servants who were guarding him.

Seeing her like this, the old lady went out and advertised that she was Tie Yi's younger sister, and she already made up her mind.

"Let her out, it's a family matter, so I won't bother you to deal with it."

The officials didn't dare to stop him too much. It was indeed a family matter. Before arresting Xu Ruling, they followed the rules. Now that General Tie's mother has come to redeem him, they will of course release him.

After Xu Ruling came out, she held the old lady's hand and cried, crying and talking.

"Who is it, who is harming me! Said that I have embezzled money from the house! My aunt must be Jiang Lai, she has always wanted to completely exclude me, and now she directly slandered me and even reported to the police to arrest me!
Aunt, you must call the shots for me! "

The old lady looked at her with serious eyes and a cold tone.

"You did nothing wrong, the government has no evidence, why did they arrest you?"

Xu Ruling cried out, followed by a flash of panic and tension in his eyes.

"It's Jiang Lai, she must be using the name of general to do something wrong!"

"Ru Ling, I watched you grow up, tell me the truth, did you embezzle the money that was missing in the account?"

Of course Xu Ruling denied it.

"not me!"

"That's 8000 taels less!"

"It's Jiang Lai, she must have embezzled it to frame me!"
