son, don't mess around

Two days have passed since Sun Jingguo and Sun Yue were detained in Jiang's residence.

There has been a lot of heated discussion in Chujiang City these past two days.

However, there was no movement from the Sun Mansion, as if the matter had been forgotten!
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a competition between the Sun family and the Jiang family. The Sun family's attitude is clear: if you have the guts, then you can touch my people.

Things have escalated to this point, and the attitude of the Jiang family is extremely critical!

No one knew what the Jiang family was trying to do, but before the Jiang family could respond further, a series of news quickly spread in Chujiang City.

First, on this day, an old woman came to the government office in Chujiang City and reported the case and cried that Sun Yue, the fourth young master of the Sun family, had ordered people to occupy and buy her family’s land at a low price some time ago, and also sent people to intimidate her husband.

This matter was not over yet, and then, another person came to the government office to report the case, also accusing the fourth young master of the Sun family, Sun Yue, of seizing his family's property and molesting his wife. After that, several more people came to report the case, and the reasons for the reports were varied, but they were all similar.

And the person they sued, without exception, was Sun Yue!
In this case, the county magistrate can no longer sit still!
So many people suddenly came to sue the fourth young master of the Sun family at the same time. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that there was something fishy going on. They were clearly targeting the Sun family. The prefect could not sit still and hurriedly stabilized the situation while sending someone to inform the Sun family of the incident.

A big family like the Sun family has extremely terrifying power and influence in Chujiang City. Even a figure like the county magistrate has to act according to his mood.

Not to mention that over the years, the government has been filled with people planted by various families.

When the Sun family learned the news, they immediately realized that something was wrong.

Sun Qiao in particular was aware that someone was targeting Sun Yue, and in fact might be targeting the Sun family.

But before he could make any reaction, the news spread quickly in Chujiang City, and then quickly aroused heated discussions among the people.

For a time, Sun Yue was quickly pushed to the forefront.

Occupying people's land, seizing people's property, oppressing people, molesting decent women... these crimes immediately caused an uproar.

Everyone knows that the powerful and wealthy are not good people, and everyone also knows that the children of the powerful and wealthy are doing some dirty things behind the scenes.

But it's done, and it's fine if the people don't know about it and are kept in the dark. But now that it's exposed, the consequences will be serious!
Sun Qiao naturally understood this truth. The moment the news broke out, he understood everything.

...This was definitely done by the Jiang family!

"..."

"father!"

In the quiet room, Sun Qiao's face darkened slightly, and he said seriously: "The Jiang family, they took action!"

Old Master Sun was still sitting upright on the cushion, like an immortal cultivator, but his slightly old face showed a bit of solemnity.

"The Jiang family is coming for our Sun family."

Sun Qiao's tone was slightly heavy: "Father, what should we do next?"

"I didn't expect that the Jiang family would do such a despicable thing!"

I thought the Jiang family would not dare to act rashly, and that continuing to waste time would only be disadvantageous to the Jiang family. But I didn't expect that the Jiang family would suddenly turn the tables!
Fourth brother has indeed done a lot of dirty things behind the scenes over the years. Now that it has been exposed, whether there is evidence or not, it is bound to create a very bad impression on their Sun family.

But the thing is… usually no one does that.

After all, as a family of Chujiang City, everyone has dirty tricks. Sun Yue is indeed dishonest behind the scenes, but are you guys from the Jiang family honest?
If we break the rules and expose each other's shortcomings like this, what will happen in the future?
Therefore, Sun Qiao was extremely angry about the Jiang family's behavior.

"No hurries!"

Old Master Sun glanced at him and then sneered: "The Jiang family is forcing us to show up!"

"What was exposed this time were just some insignificant things about Yue'er. They did this on purpose to force me to show up!"

At this point, a trace of doubt flashed across Grandpa Sun's eyes: "But, what exactly does Jiang Yuan want to do?"

Sun Qiao stood aside and said in a deep voice: "Then let's..."

"Since Jiang Yuan wants to see me, why not let me meet him?!"

A sneer flashed across Old Man Sun's eyes: "I want to see what kind of waves he can stir up when he is about to be buried and die!"

Sun Qiao was a little uneasy: "Father, this is inappropriate, right?"

"What if the Jiang family doesn't follow the moral code and treats you, father..."

"If Jiang Yuan dares to kill me, then I will consider him capable!"

Old Master Sun sneered: "If I die at the hands of the Jiang family, they will definitely become the target of public criticism... I want to see if he has the guts to do that!"

Even so, Sun Qiao still felt a little uneasy. He thought for a moment and said, "Father, you can go to the Jiang family, but you'd better be careful."

Mr. Sun narrowed his eyes slightly: "I know what's going on."

Sun Qiao was thinking about how to ensure his father's safety and what tricks the Jiang family was playing.

Just at this moment, a maid's voice came from the yard outside the door: "Master, someone outside wants to see you!"

"Who?!"

Sun Qiao looked back.

"Princess Xu."

After these words came out, Sun Qiao in the room was slightly stunned, and then suddenly narrowed his eyes: "What is she doing here at this time?"

"Could it be..."

Sun Qiao turned his head and looked at his father.

Old Master Sun narrowed his eyes slightly at this time. After a while, he said slowly: "It seems that this time they may come to force the emperor to abdicate."

"Then father, I..."

"You have to figure it out yourself."

Old Master Sun slowly closed his eyes and entered a state of meditation again. "Prince Xu is about to rebel, and the Princess Xu's appearance here must be a big plan."

"Although our Sun family has a lot of contact with the Xu family, these are all private matters... Remember, you must not be implicated by this."

"Yes!"

"..."

Sun Qiao left the backyard and came to the front yard.

In the hall of the front yard, Xu Chaoge, dressed in a purple robe, was sitting quietly in the hall.

Her neutral, masculine outfit gave her an oppressive aura. From a distance, she gave people an indescribable sense of urgency.

Sun Qiao stepped forward quickly, smiling and bowing respectfully: "Greetings to Her Royal Highness Princess Xu!"

"Master Sun, please don't be polite!"

Xu Chaoge spoke lightly.

Sun Qiao raised his head, looking straight ahead at the stunning Princess Xu, and said, "I wonder why Princess Xu is here today?"

"This princess came here today because she has something important to tell you!"

Having said this, Xu Chaoge paused, his eyes slowly resting on him: "I wonder if Master Sun still remembers what you promised my father!"

After hearing these words, Sun Qiao's heart skipped a beat.

It turned out that he came here for this matter!

Over the years, the Sun family has been secretly connected with the Xu family. The Xu family has provided a lot of help over the years, helping the Sun family to expand its power in Chujiang City.

But at the same time, the Sun family also agreed to some of the conditions of Prince Xu's Mansion.

At this moment, Princess Xu Wang came straight to the point without any beating around the bush, and it was clear that she was here for the plan.

Sun Qiao's eyelids twitched, but his expression remained normal: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I haven't forgotten this matter. Over the years, the Sun family has been able to achieve what it has today thanks to the support of the prince. If the prince needs us, our Sun family will be ready to go through fire and water at any time."

"very good!"

Xu Chaoge nodded with satisfaction and glanced at her again: "This princess heard that the Sun family and the Jiang family had a conflict today?"

Sun Qiao frowned slightly, wondering why the princess suddenly brought up this matter, but he still nodded: "There are some minor frictions!"

"Master Sun, don't you want to know the reason?"

As if he thought of something, a sneer flashed in Xu Chaoge's eyes.

Sun Qiao was slightly stunned: "Could it be that Her Highness the Princess knows?"

"nature!"

Xu Chaoge sneered: "I not only know why the Jiang family detained Sun Jingguo and Sun Yue, but also know the Jiang family's purpose... Master Sun, do you want to know?"

After hearing these words, Sun Qiao felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

Even the Princess Xu knew about this, which proved that this matter was not simple. Thinking of something, Sun Qiao's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Please tell me clearly, Your Highness, I will be grateful!"

"..."

Jiang Mansion, a quiet courtyard.

A maid walked softly to the eaves of the courtyard and said, "Miss, Master Xu is here again!"

Under the eaves, the window sill was pushed open, and just below the window sill, sat a beautiful woman with exquisite features, extraordinary temperament and graceful figure.

There was an indescribable air of nobility in his every gesture.

At this moment, when he heard the maid's report, a hint of impatience suddenly appeared on that handsome face.

"Why is he here again?!"

"not see!"

Jiang Yuxiang's tone was a little irritated. Why was that dog-skin plaster so annoying!

The maid's tone was a little weak: "But that Mr. Xu refused to leave... He insisted that he wanted to see you, young lady!"

"He won't leave until he sees it!"

"He likes to stay, so let him stay."

Jiang Yuxiang spoke unhappily.

How could there be such an ignorant and short-sighted person in this world?

"Yes."

The maid looked at the young lady cautiously, then slowly retreated.

However, Jiang Yuxiang's mood had already been ruined by this news.

That Xu Xiuzhu was truly the most persistent person she had ever met.

How many years has it been?

That guy was beaten by her since he was a child. After all these years, he is still the same.

Jiang Yuxiang was extremely displeased with this man. Although he looked gentle and righteous, he was actually a man of deep thoughts.

It's not like she hasn't heard of this Xu Xiuzhu. He usually appears to be a gentleman in front of outsiders. But in fact, it is rumored that he often beats and scolds the servants in the mansion, and his methods are extremely cruel.

In short...it's not a good thing!
If the Xu family had not been so powerful and had not had some connections with the Jiang family, Jiang Yuxiang would not have even let him enter the Jiang residence.

The appearance of this annoying guy ruined Jiang Yuxiang's mood.

She stood up a little irritably and sighed deeply.

Is it really necessary to get married?
Isn't it something against the will of heaven and treason for Jiang Yuxiang not to find a man?
Jiang Yuxiang thought blankly for a while, then sighed softly.

Even if you want to find a man, you should find someone who shares the same interests and hobbies as you, right?

If it really doesn't work, then at least it should look pleasing to the eye and have some feeling, right?

And this Xu Xiuzhu was not within her consideration at all.

Besides, who else?

Jiang Yuxiang was lost in thought as a figure gradually emerged in her mind.

When this figure gradually emerged clearly, Jiang Yuxiang, who had been calm, suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment on his face.

What is she thinking about?
How could I have imagined...

For a moment, Jiang Yuxiang's face turned red.

She felt that she was being too shameless. How could she always think of...

Thinking of this, the memory involuntarily came to my mind of the two times when I was in the capital, when that guy mistook me for a kite.

Same experience twice, same touch...

Jiang Yuxiang's body inexplicably felt a little hot, her breathing became slightly rapid, and her plump breasts rose and fell, outlining a perfect curve.

Then, he seemed to remember the strange look in the eyes of that brat before.

"No, no, no, no..."

Jiang Yuxiang quickly shook her head to stop herself from thinking about it.

Then, a look of shame and anger appeared on her delicate face.

"It's all that brat's fault. It's all his fault!"

Jiang Yuxiang thought so, spoke angrily, and immediately gritted his teeth.

"Go find him some trouble!"

Having said that, as if he had found a suitable excuse for himself, Jiang Yuxiang immediately walked out the door aggressively.

……

Jiang Mansion, front hall.

"Master Xu, my young lady is ill and cannot meet anyone. Please forgive me!"

In the front hall, the maid explained softly.

Xu Xiuzhu was standing in the pavilion. When he heard the news, a gloomy look appeared on his face.

Then he returned to normal and chuckled, "It's okay, since Miss Jiang is not feeling well, I'll come back next time!"

His tone was soft, gentle and elegant.

The maid in front of her took a few glances and admired in her heart.

This Mr. Xu is really a handsome, gentle and handsome man, and he has been in love with his young lady for many years.

Unfortunately, his young lady always looked down on him.

The maid felt a little regretful.

"By the way, could you please help me pass this letter to your young lady?"

As Xu Xiuzhu spoke, he took out another letter from his bosom and handed it to the maid: "Please be sure to pass it on!"

"By the way, let me know that I am always here to welcome you. I hope Miss Jiang can show some favor to me!"

The maid took the letter and nodded: "Don't worry, Master Xu, I will definitely pass it to the young lady."

"Thank you very much!"

Xu Xiuzhu nodded with a gentle smile on his face, then turned and left.

As he turned around, a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes, and then quickly disappeared.

He recovered as normal and walked away quickly.

……

backyard.

As soon as Lin Jiangnian walked out of the backyard, he saw a figure rushing in hurriedly.

When I looked carefully, it was Jiang Yuxiang.

"Stinky boy!"

When Lin Jiangnian saw her coming towards him aggressively, he immediately reflected on what he had done recently.

After making sure that he hadn't done anything wrong, Lin Jiangnian asked in surprise, "Aunt, what's wrong with you?"

“I’m very unhappy!”

Jiang Yuxiang approached Lin Jiangnian, her face slightly red, stared at him with gritted teeth, and said angrily.

"so what?"

"Come here and apologize to me, your aunt!"

Lin Jiangnian: "?"
