The best old woman is too fierce, stepping on her ex-husband and beating up her traitorous son!

Mrs. Ji had Liu Bao's wife arrested, but Liu Bao ran away.

Liubao was very filial. He wanted to keep the young master and his wife a secret before, but now the wife actually wanted to kill his parents.

In this case, there is no need to hide it.

Liu Bao secretly found Lord Ji and knelt down to Marquis Suiyang, "Master Hou, the young master was indeed killed by bandits. The slave was also knocked unconscious at the time."

"Originally, this was an accident. I was beaten. I admit that I failed to protect the young master, but even six burly men were brought down, and the slave was not immune."

Marquis Suiyang squinted his eyes and looked at Liubao, "I know all these things. If you can't tell me something I don't know, I will have you arrested and given to Madam."

Liu Bao thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Master Hou, actually the young master has another purpose in going to Lanshan County, and the lady also knows it. When he learned that the Tang family wanted to give a gift to Mrs. Gongsun, and it was Tang Ziqian who went there, I guess the Tang family wants to marry the Gongsun family."

"The Gongsun family is a wealthy family in Lanshan County. The family is very wealthy. Mr. Gongsun's adopted daughter is Li Heifeng's granddaughter. The Li Xiaoyue family's wool products are also very profitable, so the wife was tempted and asked the young master to come over."

"Ah?" Marquis Suiyang was startled, dumbfounded, and suddenly became anxious, "What else is there? Tell me everything!"

Liu Bao was like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, telling the truth, "Madam and the young master conspired together, she also wants to marry Li Changhuan, but she likes Li Changhuan and likes the young master..."

Although Marquis Suiyang is a bastard, he is not stupid.

"Liubao, this is one hundred taels of silver. I will get you a fake road guide. You disguise yourself and rush to Lanshan County quietly to investigate whether the Banxia is still there?"

Liu Bao was stunned, "Master Hou, are you suspicious of the Gongsun family and the Li family?"

Marquis Suiyang sighed, "Heng'er's methods are too dirty. He subdued the maid next to Li Changhuan first. He must also be doing things with that big-hearted maid, and he must also know a lot about Li Changhuan."

"If you were the Gongsun family and the Li family, and your daughter was coveted in this way, and there was a danger of your reputation being damaged, and you discovered the instigator, and you still had the ability to take this person's life, would you let this person go? ?”

Liu Bao was cold all over, "I won't let you go, little one."

Marquis Suiyang sighed again, "Lanshan County is where the Li family, the Gongsun family, and the Huo family belong. Does Heng'er really think that he can hide it from these two families?"

Liubao listened and shook his head again, "Master Hou, these three families are very famous in Xiguan, Lanshan County, and they should have many informants. The things the young master did may have been discovered. After all, the young master is not only in Gongsun Mansion I have a private meeting with a maid inside, and I still hang out outside."

Marquis Suiyang's expression changed greatly, "As long as you know about this matter, don't tell anyone else. Investigate it privately. Your mother, I will make proper arrangements to save their lives."

"Yes, sir." Liu Bao replied, then took the money and waited in the inn to give him directions.

The next day, Liubao obtained fake identity documents and directions, disguised himself, and went to Lanshan County.

Tang Ziqian was very angry recently and made an appointment with Liu Zhengyang and Liu Xiangan to meet in a teahouse.

"Some people outside have been saying nonsense recently that Ji Heng's death has something to do with us. It was because we were jealous of Ji Heng's talent that we framed him."

When Liu Xiangan heard this, he slammed the table hard, "It's really too much of a lie. It obviously has nothing to do with us, but just because Ji Heng went to Lanshan County with us and he had an accident, we have to be responsible!"

Liu Zhengyang was also very distressed, "Hey, Ji Heng was the one who encouraged us to go to Lanshan County. Now that Ji Heng is dead, we can't explain it even if we have a hundred mouths."

Liu Xiang'an scratched his head, "If you can't explain it clearly, I won't say it. Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with us."

"Unfortunately, I also sent Ji Heng a thousand taels of silver. Now that everyone is gone, my thousand taels of silver have also been wasted."

When Tang Ziqian heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's okay for you. I went directly to your third uncle's place. Zhengyang and Ji Heng and I live in Gongsun's house. With Ji Heng gone, the money will probably not be returned, but people are following I went to Gongsun's house with me, I have to return it." Liu Zhengyang is a kind man, "Brother Tang, you and I will get half of the five hundred taels of silver each. Just as the jade that Miss Chang Huan and I bought has arrived, I will hand over the money directly. Someone from the Li family will take it back."

Tang Ziqian nodded, "When the time comes, tell me."

This time the goal was not achieved and something like this happened, which is really unlucky.

After a few days, the caravan from Lanshan County finally arrived in the capital.

Liu Zhengyang quickly paid the payment to Li Shiqiang, a caravan owned by the Li family.

Li Shiqiang is Li Changhuan's cousin and is trustworthy.

"Cousin Li, I still have some jewelry in my shop, do you want it?" Liu Zhengyang also wanted to sell the jewelry.

Li Shiqiang waved his hand, "No, I received a letter saying that a hydraulic grindstone was produced in my hometown. Whether it is cutting jade, grinding beads, or making jade pendants, it is much easier than before."

"The ones here are more exquisite, but the prices here are too expensive. We are mid- to low-end and can't sell them. On the contrary, if you want to buy well-made jewelry, the price can be cheaper for you."

Liu Zhengyang was a little disappointed, "If you have good jade, you can send it to the capital, and my shop, Linglong Pavilion, can help sell it on your behalf."

"Okay, if you have anything to do, you can write a letter and I'll take it back to my aunt." Li Shiqiang replied. Although his cousin was in charge of these jade stones, he couldn't ask his nephew to write to his cousin!

Liu Zhengyang nodded, "Okay, Cousin Li, how long will you take to rest in the capital?"

Li Shiqiang replied: "We will leave in five days at most. It will snow if it's too late and we won't be able to get back."

"Okay, I'll prepare a generous gift as soon as possible. Thank you to Mrs. Gongsun and Miss Chang Huan for taking care of you."

Looking at Liu Zhengyang's leaving figure, Li Shiqiang touched his chin with a rather playful look in his eyes.

He handed over the caravan's affairs to his deputy, then changed his clothes and appearance and left the inn.

When he arrived, Mrs. Gongsun personally asked him to investigate Liu Zhengyang, Tang Ziqian, and the other three young people on the list.

In four days, Li Shiqiang sorted out all the contents. What surprised him was Liu Zhengyang.

This man is not handsome, but he is not a bad person. He is already eighteen years old and he does not have a concubine.

Along the way, he asked the doctor who came with the caravan to check Liu Zhengyang's pulse. Liu Zhengyang's health was fine, so it could only be said that he was doing well.

The other people already have maids who live with their wives.

Especially Tang Ziqian, who looked like a dog, and almost all the maids in the house were taken away by him.

Such a person still wants to marry Li Changhuan, how can he have the face?

The Li family is low-key, but they will never marry their cousin to such a person.

Along the way, Li Shiqiang also observed that Liu Zhengyang was the shrewdest of the three and acted the most prudent.

It's no wonder that both mother and Mrs. Gongsun are more concerned about Liu Zhengyang.

However, it was not his turn to make the final decision regarding his cousin's marriage. He wrote down the contents of the investigation and let Mrs. Gongsun and his mother read it alone. (End of chapter)
