Chapter 48 Unhappy Quarrel with Love
On the evening of the day when the case was closed by Shuntian Mansion, cousin Cai Bilian was dying.
She had long been unable to speak and was drowsy. When Mr. Cai and Mrs. Cai came over, Cai Bilian was completely slurping on the ginseng slices.
Mama Rong looked arrogant. She was Mama Lu’s dowry. Although the Cai family is known as a scholarly family, it still cannot get into Mama Lu’s eyes, so it can’t get into Mama Rong’s eyes.
To put it nicely, it is the old lady in the mansion's home, but to put it badly, it is the poor relative of Qiufeng.
"The old lady is old and she always loves her cousin very much. Now she is like this, so I dare not let the old lady know that if the old lady is sad and sick, it will be difficult for Mr. Cai, Mrs. Cai, to feel at ease."
Mrs. Cai pointed to the wound on Cai Bilian's face and asked, "What's the wound on my girl's face? And Lanzhi, where has Lanzhi been?"
Mama Rong snorted coldly: "Lanzhi and her cousin killed us five girls, and are now locked up in prison. The cousin was angry with Lanzhi, and she didn't care about walking, and she broke her face like this."
"How is it possible? My girl is so ill that she is not clear. She has something to do in your mansion. We want to see the old lady, we want to see the old lady!" Mrs. Cai picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it on the ground.
Mama Rong curled her lips and smiled as if she was smiling: "The eldest lady has this skill, so it's better to spend more time with her cousin. According to the old lady, she is afraid that she will be in trouble."
Mrs. Cai sneered, walked to the sickbed, and pulled Cai Bilian up from the bed. She pulled her head back, like a lifeless rag doll.
"Girl, wake up quickly. Now your brother and sister-in-law are here. Let's make the decision for you. Tell me quickly who harmed you!" Mrs. Cai shouted at the top of her lungs.
Cai Bilian didn't even lift her eyelids, and she still looked half-dead.
Mrs. Cai's heart moved. In front of Mr. Cai, she tore off Cai Bilian's collar. Mr. Cai was caught off guard and hurriedly turned her face. But then he heard Mrs. Cai's scream. He subconsciously turned his head and saw a piece of black green on Cai Bilian's chest.
"This is..." Master Hua was surprised and suddenly felt something was wrong, so he quickly turned his face away again.
"I've been poisoned, my girl has been poisoned, Qingyuan Marquis's Mansion has been murdered!" Mrs. Cai shouted heart-wrenchingly.
She then threw away the half-dead Cai Bilian and rushed towards Rong Mama. Rong Mama took two steps back and cursed: "What do you want to do when you come out of the countryside?"
"You dog slave, I am from the countryside, so your old lady is from the countryside. If your Marquis's mansion kills my sister, I will go to Shuntian Mansion to complain!" Mrs. Cai shouted.
Mama Rong was too lazy to pay attention to her, so she turned around and left. Mama Cai chased after her and grabbed Mama Rong's clothes from behind, and the two of them started to fight.
The girl outside heard the movement and trotted over. Some people came to pull up the frame, and some people ran to the bed to check.
"Come, cousin is dead!"
Uncle Cai and Mrs. Cai did not go to Shuntian Mansion to complain. Uncle Cai had studied and the Cai family now had no one to be an official, so they could use it to sue the Qingyuan Marquis’ Mansion. Besides, Lanzhi’s contract was still in the Cai family, and Miss Huawu was killed by their Cai family’s maid.
Although he did not complain, Mr. Cai and Mrs. Cai were not vegetarians. They put Cai Bilian's body in the charity village and returned to Xianghe.
The next day, he brought dozens of people to the gate of the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion and cursed. Among these people, there were also idle men from the countryside.
The alley where the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion is located is not only the official house, but also the Prince's Mansion. After such a fuss, the Cai family and the next few families were affected. Zhao Mengyu, the prince of Long'an, was a humble gentleman. Seeing this, he laughed and told the people in the mansion to close the front door and go in and out through the back door so that they would not be bumped into by those idle men.
But not everyone has a good temper like the Prince of Long'an, such as Mr. Qian Er's house in the same alley.
There are three brothers in the Qian family. The three brothers called Qian Buchen, Qian Buqian and Qian Buqiu. Maybe when Mr. Qian named them, he hoped that his sons could be safe and uncontact with the world, but things went against their wishes. The three masters of the Qian family were the three stingers of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The eldest master Qian Buchen is the Minister of Works. People from the Ministry of Works have never seen this master be happy, and he always owes him money like everyone else.
The second master Qian Buren is born with a hot temper. He was originally in the Ministry of Works. A few years ago, he broke his leg when inspecting fortifications. He was disabled because he did not have a good rest and was disabled. He begged for his bones to be a housekeeper.
The third master had to fight for money without fighting, and he would fight to the death with others. He entered the Censorate in his twenties. Now he is forty years old, and he is still in the Censorate, from the Censor of the Seventh-rank Censor to the Third-rank Deputy Censor... There are very few civil and military officials in the court who have not been allowed to participate, and he even argues in the court invincible.
Today, the unhappy Minister Qian and the Censor Qian, who loves to quarrel, both came to the mansion of Mr. Qian Er, who was disabled and strong.
The next day, it happened to be in the court. All civil and military officials in the capital gathered. Censor Qian gave a look and twenty censors and twenty memorials handed them all over.
Among these comments, ten are impeached by the Hou Hua and Yubo, the Hou of Qingyuan, who was not strict in managing his family and indulged the female family in the house to commit crimes and kill young girls, which was contrary to human ethics; the other ten are impeached by the Hou of Qingyuan, who was the name of taking in cousins and murdering the female candidates to death.
As for which year the show girl was, it doesn't matter. The Cai girl is indeed a show girl waiting to be selected, and Censor Qian deliberately asked someone to check it out.
The emperor glanced at Master Hua, who was hunching his neck like a quail, and then looked at Qian Censor Qian Buzheng, who held his head and chest up like a fighting rooster. He was a little helpless. Why did the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion beholden to the point of being a money-buying? Well, with the combat power of money-buying, he would not give up without biting a few pieces of meat from the Qingyuan Marquis' body.
The emperor asked the eunuch to collect the memorial and took it back to the imperial study room to take a closer look.
Among the ten of the memorials, there was a case just concluded by Shuntian Prefecture, and all of them were mentioned about Mrs. Cai. The emperor asked the eldest prince to come to the palace to ask.
The eldest prince Zhao Zhun has been observing politics in Shuntian Prefecture these days.
When Zhao Zhun left the imperial study room, the emperor's face became gloomy. Mrs. Cai from the Qingyuan Marquis's Mansion was too cruel.
The Lanzhi who was responsible for the crime was the maid of the cousin Cai Bilian. Among the other ten memorials of the censors, the candidate who was murdered by the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion was Cai Bilian.
This family is not only vicious, but also stupid.
Such a cruel and stupid family, one generation worse than the other. How did they give birth to such an empty valley orchid like Hua Yukun?
Fortunately, Princess Zhaoyang has already separated and has nothing to do with this family.
The emperor sighed and headed to Cining Palace.
