The old lady is reborn

Chapter 43: Furious

At present, in the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion, apart from Rong Ruozhi, who is an idle marquis with only a title, the prince Rong Huaishan got a job in the Ministry of Revenue because of the favor that Song Ying had done for him.

But because the Jingzhao Yin had already verified that he and his concubine Zhao Ting conspired to poison his parents' adopted son Rong Huaian, the evidence was conclusive.

In addition, Rong Huaishan's wife Wu Siyu accused him of having ill intentions towards his brother's sister-in-law and finding a concubine who looked very similar to his sister-in-law.

He was also accused of "favoring his concubine" and killing his wife, and of beating his original wife violently in public, leaving her covered in bruises.

All these things added together were not only immoral, but also illegal. Rong Huaishan was unable to refute any of them.

The Ministry of Revenue has already talked to him, and he probably can’t avoid impeachment this time.

His title and position as crown prince will probably be lost.

When Rong Huaishan heard the letter, he was already filled with rage.

Because of his status as a prince and his official position, and because he was Song Ying's son after all, the Jingzhao Yin also informed him in advance, and the poisoning case was basically investigated. Fortunately, Rong Huaian was not seriously injured, but punishment was inevitable.

Therefore, in addition to his title of crown prince and position in the Ministry of Revenue, which may both be stripped away, he and Zhao Ting will be punished according to the law.

Now that Zhao Ting is pregnant, the punishment has been suspended, but Rong Huaishan is likely to be sentenced to three months in prison or forty strokes of the cane in court, and a fine of 500 taels of silver.

The reason why Jingzhao Yin informed Rong Huaishan of this first was that he didn't want to make things too awkward in terms of human relations.

Rong Huaishan received this news one after another. He thought that he would be demoted to the lowest level and would be beaten with a stick or sentenced to imprisonment. The little face he had previously had as a colleague was gone. He felt anxious and resentful, but he didn't know how to vent this nameless anger.

In his heart, he was already weighing the two punishments. After much thought, he decided to spend some money and endure forty lashes of the cane. As long as he was willing to spend the money, the forty lashes would be painful but would not break his bones.

It's better than three months in prison.

He and his two sons had encountered many setbacks this year. Their mother, Song Ying, had changed her usual style and ignored them and did not help them. Rong Huaishan was already feeling aggrieved, unwilling and resentful.

He was not grateful for his mother's usual thoughtfulness, but hated her current negligence.

Today, his father and Tian Anran talked about their life stories, and Rong Huaishan felt mixed emotions.

No wonder his attempt to get rid of Rong Huaian led to the betrayal and denunciation of Hua's mother and son.

In all likelihood, it was Song Ying who was behind the scenes making things happen.

It was probably her who asked Hua's mother and son to report her.

In Rong Huaishan's opinion, Hua's mother and son definitely did not have the courage to do so.

My father was fine. Although he told me not to do that again, he only said a few words.

My father still cares about me more, but my mother, whom I have called my mother for decades, has ruined her own future for her own son.

Rong Huaishan called Wang Hu and Tan Zhiqiang. He wanted to do this when he was reported by his wife and concubines at the same time.

He rushed back to the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion with the servants and guards from the outer house and gave a severe beating to his wives and concubines who had betrayed him.

The two sons also need to make them realize the situation and decide whether to follow him as their father or side with their mother, or their "grandmother".

Tell them that the real grandmother is Tian Anran, not Song Ying.

He wanted to imprison Song Ying in the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion, and wait for him to slowly investigate these things and find out who was harming him.

If she thought it through and realized that her son was far better than that illiterate fool, and that he continued to be a good mother to her and contribute money and connections to her, it would not be impossible for her to live out her retirement in the marquis' mansion.

Bai Su was captured by Jingzhao Yin's men after she left Kyoto.

According to the current laws of the court, if Bai Su only stays in Kyoto, it is not considered escape.

But after leaving Kyoto, she had already made arrangements and was planning to follow a caravan on a long journey, so this was clear evidence of her escape.

Therefore, the people from the Jingzhao Yin Police Station followed her all the way, obtained the evidence, and then arrested her after she left Kyoto.

After being caught this time, Bai Su realized that she probably couldn't escape. Ye Xuan was really poisoned to death by her.

Although there was a man named Xiaoyao Hou who pretended to be dumb and ignorant but actually protected her, he did not do anything himself and there was no clear evidence to show that he actually knew about it and was protecting her.

Bai Su thought about it and felt that it was unlikely that she could put the blame on Xiaoyao Hou.

So he decided to act affectionate, so that Xiaoyao Hou might fight for himself one last time, or at worst get his sentence reduced or die more comfortably.

Bai Su asked to see Xiaoyao Hou, and after meeting him, she told him that she intended to take all the blame.

What he did had nothing to do with Xiaoyao Hou, and Xiaoyao Hou was unaware of the inside story.

She was just reluctant to leave Kyoto, reminiscing about their past, every little detail of those years, and accidentally left Kyoto. She didn't really want to escape.

She let the child stay in the room and dress up as her, not to deceive Xiaoyao Hou, but because she was afraid that the police would be watching her.

She just wanted to spend one more beautiful day happily in Kyoto and relive their past.

She was also afraid that they would only be sadder if he knew about it. Xiaoyao Hou couldn't help being moved when he heard it, and hugged her tightly. Although he was a little hesitant in his heart, thinking that he didn't need to take away so many banknotes after just one day of fun, he was still a little touched at this moment.

A female detective from the Jingzhao Yin Police Station couldn't stand it any longer, so she came over and said to her, "Have you forgotten that you paid double the silver to the merchant's horse team to follow them to Nanjing?"

Bai Su was so angry, it turned out that all women were jealous of her. But the play had come to an end, and the scene was really awkward.

Xiaoyao Hou loosened his grip and let go of the woman he had just held in his arms.

Just like what you think is a passionate love, just like what you think is a magnificent life drama, in the end it only has a tragic and ridiculous ending, like covering one's ears and stealing the bell.

Rong Huaishan returned to the Nan'an Marquis Mansion with dozens of servants and was surprised to find that even the gatekeeper was gone.

He went to Song Ying's yard first, but found it empty. Rong Huaian, who had caused him to lose everything and become a penniless person, was also missing.

There was nothing of value left in the yard. Rong Huaishan felt relieved and took his men to the storehouse, where Song Ying's dowry and personal belongings were.

He and his two sons had taken many of those good things in the past.

I broke the lock and opened it, only to find that there was nothing inside.

Ever since the doormen were all replaced, the things in Song Ying's warehouse had been moved away in batches and transported to Song Ying's residence on East and West Streets.

Rong Huaishan was so angry that his mouth twitched. It seemed that Song Ying had known about it for a long time.

He didn't remember that his position as the crown prince and his job in the Ministry of Revenue were obtained for him by Song Ying. He only resented her for causing him to lose everything and be left with nothing.

Rong Huaishan gave orders to send a group of people to investigate where Song Ying had moved to.

He took his men to the courtyard of his wives and concubines.
