Phoenix dwelling in Yanzhou

The next day, Su Qian received the news of the separation of Qin Xiao's family in Yanwang Mansion.

"Qin Xiao redeemed the Qin family's old house, ancestral land, and all the original Qin family's utensils and money, all belonged to Qin Li. Yesterday, Qin Xiao took Shu Yi and Qin Pan out of the house and moved into the governor's house. government."

In the study of Prince Yan's mansion, his subordinates reported the news they had inquired about.

Beside the sapphire desk, Jing Sheng was writing ink for Su Qian on a whim. Hearing this, she couldn't help being suspicious, "Didn't you all stick to the eldest son first when you split up in the Central Plains?"

But Qin Xiao didn't take any money from the Qin family, leaving all the money to his younger brother, and came out with only Shu Yi and Qin Pan?

"Isn't this fair?" Jing Sheng asked.

Su Qian fiddled with the abacus in one hand, and held the notebook in the other, "Qin Xiao is planning not to marry for life, so he gave everything in the Qin family to Qin Li who can continue the incense of the Qin family."

"Ah?" Jing Sheng was surprised, "I will never marry for life, but didn't he say yesterday that he likes Shu Yi?"

Su Qian didn't stop writing, and only said, "They have no results."

"Why?" Jing Sheng couldn't understand, because the people of Beidi were tough, and it was not a problem for a younger uncle to marry a widowed wife. She didn't know that in the Central Plains, it was a matter that was not tolerated by heaven and earth.

"The marriage customs in the Central Plains are different from those in Beidi," Su Qian explained, "In Beidi, it is not uncommon for a brother-in-law to marry a sister-in-law, but in the Central Plains, it is unethical and taboo!"

Qin Xiao dared to admit that he was in love with Shu Yi, which already surprised Su Qian.

But... they can only stop here!

"Then what will happen to them in the future?" Jing Sheng asked.

"The best situation is to maintain the status quo. The two of them will guard their status as uncles and sisters for the rest of their lives, and they will only be uncles and sisters for the rest of their lives."

"The best case?" Jing Sheng frowned slightly. "What about the bad ones?"

The pen between Su Qian's fingers paused, "One is human relations, the other is chastity. If these two are suppressed, Qin Xiao will be destroyed, and Shu Yi... will be forced to death."

The ink in the ink pool splashed out, staining Jing Sheng's fingertips.

Su Qian saw it, but didn't say anything, just took Jing Sheng's hand, and wiped Jing Sheng's fingers clean one by one with a brocade handkerchief soaked in water.

The study was suddenly very quiet, so quiet that people couldn't get used to it.

As if to ease the silence, Su Qian looked at her subordinate who was still standing in front of the desk, "How is the situation at the government office?"

"Just as the empress expected," the subordinate replied, "all the people from the five major clans gathered at the entrance of the government office, sat quietly and went on a hunger strike, demanding that the government office hand over the patriarch and members of the Qin family."

"This is clearly coercing the government to compromise. People from these clans are too lawless." Jing Sheng said dissatisfied.

"Don't be angry," Su Qian patted Jing Sheng's small head, "Our Yan Palace doesn't need to come forward, Qin Xiao will take care of it."

Indeed, as Su Qian said, not long after, a subordinate came down to report that Qin Xiao sent troops to suppress those clan members.

"People's grievances are boiling?" Su Qian wrote the last stroke on the account book, "How is it boiling?"

"The five major families, men, women and children, all arrived, from the very old to the infants, and thousands of people kneeled at the gate of the government office."

A large group of people kneeled under Wu Yaya, almost occupying the entire street in front of the government office, the scene was quite shocking.certainly!The aggressive momentum was also pulled to the full point.

"When the army came to suppress it, the head of the Song family cried bitterly at the gate of the government office, saying that the government oppressed the people, and they had no way to survive. The head of the Qi family wanted to kowtow to death at the door of the government office... The women cried, and the men Filled with righteous indignation, even the surrounding people who came to watch the fun are pointing fingers, accusing the government of not..."

The consequences were even more serious than what Ah Qian said before, Jing Sheng couldn't help worrying, "Ah Qian, are we playing too much this time?"

"It's okay." Su said with a smile, "It's better to make a big fuss."

If it gets too big...it's a one-hit kill.

Seeing Su Qian's confident appearance, Jing Sheng didn't say anything more.

It was only in the evening that something unexpected happened.

Shu Yi came to Yan Wang Mansion alone, begged to see Su Qian and Jing Sheng, and said that he would not sue, and would not testify against the Qin family.She has even persuaded Qin Xiao to come forward to protect the Qin family from prison, and the matter is over.

Jing Sheng was very surprised.

Being framed and being imprisoned, Shu Yi refused to testify against the Qin family.

"Why?" Jing Sheng asked directly.

"After all, it's a family..." Shu Yi lowered her head, not looking into the eyes of her savior, "Everything is going well with a family, there's no need to hurt the friendship over a little thing."

"A small matter?!" Jing Sheng couldn't believe it, "If I didn't have time to save you, you would have died in Yanjiang. Is this a small matter? They framed you for infidelity and wanted to kill you. Is this also a small matter?"

"Ma'am, I beg you as a woman!" Shu Yi interrupted Jing Sheng, almost pleadingly, "Let's do it! Don't continue."

Su Qian had been listening to their conversation, and seeing Shu Yi's strange behavior, she asked, "Did you...have something to fall into the hands of the clan?"

Shu Yi's whole body froze visible to the naked eye, and his face turned pale instantly, but he bit his lip and refused to speak.

Seeing this, Su Qian just poured her a cup of tea indifferently, "Is it Qin Xiao's fault?"

Shu Yiqiang picked up the teacup calmly, and it could be seen that she originally wanted to pretend to be nonchalant to cover up, but the hand holding the teacup so tightly that her knuckles turned white. "It's nothing like that, the empress dowager is overthinking."

Su Qian raised her eyes and glanced at her, "Is it because of the purple electric blue frost sword?"

"Boom!" The teacup fell to the ground, the tea was splashed all over the floor, and Shu Yi's hands were covered with water.

Seeing Shu Yi's flustered look, even Jing Sheng knew that Su Qian had guessed right.

"Mu Yue, take Mrs. Qin to the side room to wash your hands." Su Qian calmly ordered, giving Shu Yi a step up when she lost her composure.

Mu Yue stepped forward and asked Shu Yi to go to the side room to wash her hands.

As if she had been pardoned, Shu Yi hurriedly left the place where she was flustered and suffocated. While cleaning her hands in the side room, she tried her best to calm herself down.

After grinding for a while, when I returned to the living room, I found that there was one more person.

"Brother Xiao?" Shu Yi looked at Qin Xiao who was on the guest seat in surprise.

"Captain Qin is worried about Madam," Su Qian explained, "so I came to find Madam."

When Shu Yi saw Qin Xiao, his flustered mind miraculously calmed down.Sitting in the guest seat again, Shu Yi said with his face back to normal. "We will not participate in this matter again, please forgive me, Empress Dowager."

Su Qian glanced at Qin Xiao, this indifferent man did not speak, it seemed that he agreed with Shu Yi's decision.

Jing Sheng was in a hurry, "Why? Is it because of the purple electric blue frost sword that Ah Qian said?"

"Don't ask, madam!" Shu Yi said resolutely, "No matter what, the women will not testify against the Qin family. Please forgive me, madam and empress."

As she spoke, she saluted hurriedly, and pulled Qin Xiao, who had been silent all this time, to leave.

He walked to the door, but heard the still gentle voice of the woman behind him, not in a hurry.

"The Zidian Qingshuang Sword, the tomb relic of the father-in-law of Qin Dudu, its pawn ticket is here in this palace."
