Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 1071
In the middle of the night, Jiang Jiuniang didn't want to deal with these troublesome things, so she said, "Find a place to lock the person up first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow. You're still pregnant with the child, so don't stay up late."

Anyway, there's no use asking now. It's not worth the trouble of delaying my sleep.

Peng Yuan heard it and it made sense. She was quite nervous when she saw Chunhua and Chuncao bringing back a little beggar. Now that Jiang Jiuniang was helping her make the decision, she felt much more relaxed.

"You can sleep peacefully. This courtyard is heavily guarded and safe, and I'm right next door. I'll know if anything happens, so don't worry."

They are all women. Jiang Jiuniang understood Peng Yuan's nervousness and uneasiness and patiently comforted her.

"Yeah, thank you, Sister Jiu."

The two of them went back to sleep, but someone in the prefect's office couldn't sleep.

Two killers were sent out, but only one came back, and the one who came back was seriously injured. He basically ran away in a hurry and had no ability to deal with the body of his companion. After he came back to report, he found someone to deal with it, but found the body of his companion. Gone.

Seriously injured, he knelt on the ground and was kicked hard by the angry Cao Shulan.

"waste!"

"If you can fail to deal with a little beggar, why should I support you?"

Cao Shulan's temper had nothing to do with the name, and she had no sympathy at all. After being kicked, the killer spit out a mouthful of blood and passed out completely.

Then she cursed and asked someone to carry him down and deal with it.

According to what the killer said, the damn little beggar was actually saved. The other party was so powerful in martial arts that they were no match at all. If the other party hadn't intentionally kept him back to reply, he probably wouldn't have spared his life.

You don't need to think about it to know that it must be Jiang Jiuniang's person, and she has noticed it.

Now that the little beggar is in their hands, what should she do if they use this as an excuse to confront her?
Jiang Jiuniang is more capable and more powerful than her. If she really wants to make herself pay the price, what will she do?
Can her father, a small prefect, be able to protect her?
Furthermore, can she still successfully marry Qin Jian?

In just a few short breaths, Cao Shulan thought about countless possibilities in her mind, and all of them made her look pale.

She was so scared that she finally went to find her mother in the middle of the night.

Coincidentally, her father also spent the night at her mother's place tonight, and her story was immediately known to her father.

Cao Zheng and his wife had already fallen asleep, but after hearing about their daughter, they had no choice but to get up.

Now that the weather is getting warmer, he only wears a large coat and goes out.

"You are so confused! If you do things so full of flaws, how could others not find out about you?"

Cao Zheng looked at his daughter, feeling quite resentful that iron could not become steel.

He had heard from his wife before that his daughter was attracted to Qin Jian and wanted to do something to win over her. He felt that his daughter was so good and Qin Jian's future was bright, so he acquiesced.

As the magistrate of Huizhou City, he had no rights at all. He was forced to do this and that by those high-ranking officials without getting any benefits. They also occupied his own courtyard. He had long been dissatisfied.

It's okay to let your daughter take action and teach them some lessons.

He didn't expect his daughter to handle things like this, and seeing that he was about to be blamed, could he not panic?

Among those stationed here, not to mention Prince Jing, who has the highest position, even Lu Baichuan and Qin Jian are not something he can afford to offend. Some things are done secretly, but if they are brought to the surface, then the matter will be... Big.

"Dad, what should we do now?"

Cao Shulan was so scared that she stamped her feet. She knew that she had done this carelessly, and now she could only rely on her father to clean up the mess.

Cao Zheng thought for a while and asked, "Where are the people who have come into contact with this matter?" "They are all in my daughter's yard."

She was still cautious and asked them to stay in their own yard during this period and not to interact with other people in the mansion.

Cao Zheng nodded with satisfaction, a hint of cruelty flashed across his face: "Let's handle them all to avoid future troubles."

As long as there are no more of these people in the world, it means that there is no evidence to prove it. Even if the little beggar says something, it will not be related to them.

After thinking about this, Cao Shulan instantly became happy and said with a smile: "Dad is really smart, my daughter will do it now."

"Well, do it cleanly, don't make any noise, and don't let too many people know."

"Yes."

Cao Shulan went back happily. Near dawn, several corpses were transported out of the back door of the prefectural government office and headed straight into the mountains.

The spring flowers and grass had all gone back, so naturally I didn't see this scene, but it wasn't very important.

The next day, Jiang Jiuniang woke up naturally, washed herself, went to eat with Peng Yuan, and then had the little beggar brought for interrogation.

The little beggar was knocked unconscious by Chunhua and brought back. He woke up in the middle of the night. He was worried and scared all night, and no one gave him anything to eat. Now he came in and saw the two beautiful ladies from yesterday. They were eating delicious breakfast. , causing him to swallow his saliva.

However, he also remembered that someone wanted his life last night, and the fear in his heart defeated his hunger, and he knelt on the ground shivering.

"Madam, please forgive me, the little one doesn't know anything!"

He was a small ball kneeling on the ground, looking quite pitiful, but he was bribed to harm Peng Yuan, so he couldn't be easily forgiven.

Poor people must be hateful. Jiang Jiuniang and Peng Yuan ignored him and continued to eat.

Peng Yuan didn't know what Jiang Jiuniang's plan was, and was afraid that she would say the wrong thing, so she simply waited for her to speak.

After Jiang Jiuniang had eaten and drank enough, she wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, made the gesture of a superior, and then said: "It was our people who saved you last night, you know that, right?"

The little beggar nodded excitedly when he saw Jiang Jiuniang finally paying attention to him.

"Then do you know who wants to kill you?"

Jiang Jiuniang asked next, and the other party shook her head blankly.

"You really don't know?"

"I really don't know anything, madam! Yesterday, those people came to me and asked me to accompany them in a play. They pretended to be casual and knocked that... madam to the ground, and gave me a few coins to buy steamed buns. Eat, I...I haven't eaten for several days, so I agreed..."

He really only knew so much. He didn't even know who he had offended and wanted to kill him.

It won't be the two people in front of me, because they saved my life.

Jiang Jiuniang sneered and asked: "Then do you know that the lady you are going to hit is pregnant. If you really knock her to the ground, you will not be able to save the child in her belly, or even kill two people?"

Hearing this, Peng Yuan touched her abdomen with fear.

The little beggar's eyes widened, and then he shook his head vigorously: "I don't know, I really don't know. I did it unintentionally. Please forgive me, madam!"

The shock and fear in his eyes didn't seem to be fake. After all, Jiang Jiuniang had learned his acting skills yesterday, and they were very average.
