Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Whether he believed it or not, Sang Mo ran out after he finished speaking.

Yan Nangui picked up the wick of the oil lamp again, and the inner room became brighter. He took out the detective collection of Bao Gongren from the bookcase and read it carefully.

This book is really just the first volume, which tells about the difficult cases encountered by Bao Daren, the prefect of Jinzhou in the previous dynasty, in the first eight years of his thirteen years as prefect. The cases in the following years are not recorded.

Even if Yan Nangui had not read the second volume, he would definitely know that Lord Bao would become more experienced as time went on, and would become more skilled in solving cases, and the cases would certainly become more exciting.

Yan Nangui kept shaking his head, complaining in his heart, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked such a calm, reserved and bright man, but he didn't expect him to do such a thing. It seemed that he had to accumulate some contribution points before he could go to the East Palace to ask for the second volume.

Xie Cheng'an was pacing anxiously at this time. Qian and Mr. Xie also did not rest. They were both in Rongdeyuan anxiously waiting for news from Shuangrui.

"Ang'er, if the Dali Temple can't find Chunxiu, will they really let Aunt Gu go? Even if they let her go, her parents will definitely not let her off easily, right?" Qian was still thinking about these questions. Seeing that Xie Cheng'an finally stopped, she asked.

"I don't know. I don't know the details of their interrogation, but since Gu Qiongsi said so, I can only arrange it this way. After all, there is still a glimmer of hope. No matter what happened, it should be Chunxiu who helped Gu Qiongsi to do it. If Chunxiu can't be found, then her crime is not true."

Xie Cheng'an was also unsure. After all, they were in the prison of the Dali Temple at that time, and there were many things that Gu Qiongsi was not convenient to say. He could only guess a little from her few words.

Mr. Xie had a look of regret on his face. "We studied hard for the imperial examinations, but how did we end up like this? You two are getting more and more daring. You even dared to participate in murder?"

After he learned about this in the afternoon, he has been worried. The Xie family used to be full of scholars. It would have been great if they could study peacefully. How did they end up in the current situation?

Qian immediately asked him to speak in a lower voice. It was late at night and there was no sound around. It would be bad if the servants around heard it.

"It's all Gu Qiongsi's fault. Now we have to help her clean up the mess." Qian looked disgusted as if she had eaten a fly.

He married Gu Xunwei for money, but he didn't get much from her and even lost his old house and cloth shop. He brought Gu Qiongsi into the house because she could help his son with advice, but who would have thought that she herself had a mess under her roof.

The Xie family was really badly harmed by the two women from the Gu family.

"If you ask me, you'd better stop as soon as possible and let An Ge work hard in the Hanlin Academy. As long as he has the ability, he will be successful sooner or later." Master Xie was still trying to persuade the two to come back.

But in the final analysis, when he made the decision, he was also greedy, but he was relatively cautious and had long regretted making such a decision, so he rarely interfered in family affairs later.

"Father, it's too late to stop now. Do you really think that if we don't help Gu Qiongsi in this matter, we will be fine? She and I have been tied together for a long time. Saving her is saving me and saving the Xie family." Xie Cheng'an sat uneasily in the chair, but still explained to his father.

Shuangrui still had no news. It was already past the time he was supposed to come back. Even though he knew that the capital city was closed at night, the butler was already waiting for him at the city gate. As long as he saw him coming, the butler would come back to report the news, but he didn't.

The three of them sat there and waited until the sky turned white, and they waited for a whole night.

However, they did not wait for the housekeeper, nor did they wait for Shuangrui. Instead, they waited for Gu Xunwei, who was already well enough to get out of bed and walk.

"You, what are you doing here?" Xie Cheng'an asked with some surprise.

Nanny Li followed in from outside. She was a little nervous, afraid that Qian would ask her whether she really gave the medicine to the young lady for the last time, so she followed in.

"What are you talking about, my husband? Such a big thing happened at home. Aunt Gu was arrested. It's okay that Wei'er was sick before, but now she's well. How can you not come and ask about it?"

Gu Xunwei's face was still a little pale, but the tone of her voice was no longer as weak as before.

"You have just recovered from your illness. You should go back to Xunxiangyuan and have a good rest. You don't have to worry about the things here." Qian didn't want to see her at this time, so she pretended to care about her and wanted her to leave.

"I've been lying in bed for a long time. Now that I can finally move around, I came here to pay my respects to my mother. I didn't expect to be so unwelcome." Gu Xunwei said aggrievedly, with a faint smile on her face.

"Gu Xunwei, don't you think your home is a mess enough? Go back here right now." Xie Cheng'an had completely lost his patience. The little bit of self-blame he had felt when he poisoned her had long since disappeared.

"The family is in chaos? Does it have anything to do with me? Isn't this all caused by Aunt Gu, whom my husband loves the most?" Gu Xunwei asked angrily, and after she finished speaking, she cast her eyes on Xie Chengan, "If Aunt Gu and her family dare to do something to my parents, they should be mentally prepared. I will not let them go."

"Even if I lose everything, I will never let them off easily."

Gu Xunwei's words were spoken lightly, but they were like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of the three people. Before the three people thought of how to respond, they heard her continue,

"It's better if you don't get involved, otherwise..." She didn't say the next words, Bai Zhi who was following behind her said it for her.

"Otherwise, if the young lady says one word, all of you will have to pack up and get out of the house."

"You...how dare you? How dare you, a servant, say such outrageous words? You really have no manners. Butler, no, Madam Li, slap me in the face."

After hearing this, Qian became furious and shouted for the housekeeper to do it. Then she remembered that the housekeeper had gone out and had not returned yet, so she changed her mind and asked Li Ma to do it.

But how could Nanny Li dare to move? The last time she and Aunt Gu were in Xunxiangyuan and were about to attack Chenxiang, Bai Zhi's force was so strong that her old arm was dislocated. She had to find a special doctor to fight back.
