Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Gu Qiongsi's words made the men feel that she really had a lot of ideas, and the key was that they could directly solve the problems they were worried about.

Moreover, she went on to say, “In order to avoid other troubles in the future, the person who reported it should be dealt with as soon as possible to avoid future troubles.”

"Well, Qingzhu's words make sense. Let Wen Jiaxiang arrange this matter. Just do as Qingzhu says." Li Junze made a decision quickly, and several people hurried down to make arrangements.

Only Gu Qiongsi was left standing in the hall, looking as if he had something to say.

"Qingzhu, do you have anything else to say?" Li Junze asked puzzledly.

When Gu Qiongsi came today, he found something wrong. She was dressed like a woman, but she had no other jewelry on her head. She only had a white floral hairpin behind her ear, as if she was wearing mourning clothes when someone in the family passed away.

Sure enough, Gu Qiongsi and Li Junze bowed and said, "Your Highness, my father-in-law has passed away. The body needs to be kept for three days before being buried. I am in mourning and I am afraid I cannot come here often. If you have anything to say, please send someone to tell me."

That's right. As Xie Cheng'an's concubine, it is indeed inconvenient for Gu Qiongsi to run around after her father-in-law passed away, otherwise she would inevitably be criticized.

Li Junze nodded and said, "You can follow the butler to the account office to withdraw some money later. It is also a small token of my appreciation."

"Also, after your father-in-law's funeral is over, let Xie Cheng'an come to the mansion so that I can meet him in person." Li Junze finally made this decision. Seeing his grandfather's current condition, he really couldn't bear to let him work so hard for him anymore. Instead, he wanted to develop his own people.

Especially after these few actions, the strength in his hands has been greatly reduced. What can he use to compete with Li Junhao in the future?

Gu Qiongsi thanked him repeatedly, and then reminded him, "Your Highness, please be careful in Jian Liangce's case. Especially since the other party is already wary of us, no matter what you do, you must be clean and neat."

When Gu Qiongsi said "clean and neat", there was a gleam of ruthlessness in her eyes. Li Junze understood what she meant without her having to explain further.

"Okay." He nodded lightly and asked the butler to take her out.

Looking at Gu Qiongsi's increasingly thin back, who was still wearing a plain dress today, Li Junze really felt a sense of pity for her. He wondered how incompetent Xie Cheng'an was to let a concubine support their family.

Even though he is talented, he is not a successful man. When he really works for himself in the future, he wants to see what ability this Xie Chengan has to attract such a powerful woman who is willing to do so much for him.

Thinking of this, his heart moved. Xie Cheng'an had already become like this, would Gu Qiongsi still treat him the same way as before?

At this time, the housekeeper came over to report that Yan Nangui, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, sent Deputy General Niu to ask him to go to the Dali Temple, and the case would begin to be tried soon.

Li Junze quickly calmed himself down, only to find that he had been silently paying attention to Gu Qiongsi's situation, which was really wrong.

You shouldn't do such a thing at this time, and you shouldn't have any thoughts about someone who has become someone else's concubine.

After arriving at the Dali Temple, they found that Yan Nangui had already brought all the relevant people into the interrogation room.

Since the interrogation room is not big, the whole room now seems cramped and crowded.

In addition to Jian Liangce and Yan Nangui, there was also a legal advisor in charge of recording, and two witnesses, Li Shitou and Wang Erguai.

However, the sight of the two people kneeling on the ground made Li Junze's heart skip a beat.

It turned out to be his former captain of the guards Wang Quan and Ji Huan.

This was also their first meeting after the incident in Xiangyang City.

When Wang Quan and Ji Huan heard Yan Nangui stand up and salute Li Junze, they were so scared that they didn't even dare to look up at Li Junze.

Under the influence of Xuanjizi's magic, they have said everything they can and cannot say. Does this count as a complete betrayal of their former master?

Yan Nangui smiled and let Li Junze sit in the main seat. He and Jian Liangce sat on either side of him. "How is Mr. Wang's condition?"

Although he has a cold personality, he still knows about this kind of concern.

Li Junze also greeted him politely, and then said, "Thank you for your concern, my grandfather's condition has stabilized and he should be fine."

"That's good, that's good." Yan Nangui seemed relieved, and pointed at Wang Quan and Ji Huan and said, "Your Highness, look, after our interrogation, we actually implicated these two people. What should we do?"

Li Junze raised his eyes and looked at the two people kneeling on the ground, his eyes were full of disgust and indifference, "Why, Lord Yan, do you think that they were ordered by me?"

His words implicitly carried the pressure of a superior, and he wanted to give Yan Nangui a warning first. He was very unhappy with the way they did things.

Yan Nangui was not a person who bullied the weak and feared the strong. When he heard him say this, he was not afraid, but instead defended himself seriously.

"Your Highness, you are worrying too much. After all, they are your people. If I felt that they were related to Your Highness, I would not have called Your Highness here specifically."

He was actually very angry in his heart, but since it concerned the royal family, especially the Third Prince who was very favored by the Emperor, they had to act with caution.

Especially since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not declared war, he doesn't need to be too anxious.

"Hmph, I don't think you would dare." Li Junze glanced at Yan Nangui, then turned his gaze to the two people kneeling on the ground.

"Wang Quan, you two can tell me what's going on?"

After he finished speaking, Wang Quan had already raised his head, but when he saw the cold expression on Li Junze's face, he knew that the two of them had been abandoned by His Royal Highness Prince An.

So no matter what, they could not implicate His Highness in this matter.

"Your Highness, it's all my fault. We were both too ambitious and were misled by others, which caused such a disaster for Your Highness. We two are willing to die to atone for our sins." Wang Quan said while kowtowing with tears in his eyes.

Ji Huan just sat there in a daze, not saying a word. He just lowered his head and closed his eyes in pain.

When Yan Nangui heard Wang Quan say this, he immediately asked, "Wang Quan, what exactly did you do, and who bewitched you? Only if you explain these things clearly can you help His Royal Highness Prince An clear his suspicion, otherwise,"

"Otherwise, it will be difficult for everyone to explain themselves in front of the emperor."

Yan Nangui asked Lieutenant General Niu and his guards to stand by and guard against the two of them committing suicide at any time.
