I was killed by domestic violence, and I went crazy with barrage

Chapter 289

Mrs. Jiang'an Hou looked at her anxious son, pursed her lips slightly, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"mother!"

Jiang Wei noticed the hesitation on her face, and spoke in a long voice, full of urgency: "This is about the truth of my sister's murder. What else do you know? You must tell me as soon as possible!"

"For so many years, we in the Jiang'an Marquis' Mansion have been living in fear and misery every day. Don't you know it?"

Jiang Wei frowned, looking like he was suppressing his anger: "Do you really think that if we retreat and hide, the person behind the scenes will let us go?"

His voice suddenly rose a few notes, and he could hardly suppress his anger: "Don't be stupid!"

"It's impossible!"

"Who knows, in our current life, others are just playing tricks on us like a cat playing with a mouse!"

"As long as the truth behind my sister's murder is not uncovered, everyone in our family will still be under someone else's knife!"

Jiang Wei was furious: "Dad is getting old and confused, and my eldest brother is not a capable person. We are just blind and foolish. When people really want to chop off our heads, you should know how important my persistence is!"

Upon hearing this, Lady Jiang Anhou not only did not relax, but became even more anxious.

"You, you let me think about it carefully!"

Jiang Wei's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Looking at his mother's expression, he was afraid that she was really hiding something and didn't tell them.

This may very well be the key to the truth behind Ajie’s murder!
"Mother, please tell me first, have you ever told Father and Big Brother about the things you hesitated to say? Do they know about it?"

Mrs. Jiang'an Marquis looked at him blankly and shook her head slowly.

At first, she didn't take what her daughter said to her seriously.

I just thought it was just the result of excessive worry during pregnancy, and the people in the palace were so complicated that it was hard to believe.

That was why she was suspicious all day long. She comforted people with a few words and selected two strong and capable maidservants from the mansion to be sent to the palace to reassure her daughter.

After all, you are pregnant with twins. If you keep worrying about all kinds of things all day long, it will inevitably hurt your mind and body, and it will also be bad for the health of the fetus.

Not to mention, giving birth for a woman is always like walking through the gates of hell, with one foot halfway into the underworld, and there's no telling whether she will ever come back!

Then I didn’t expect…

It really came true!
Mrs. Jiang'an Hou couldn't stop crying when she thought of the past.

Seeing her son so anxious and angry about wanting to find out those things, she couldn't help but blame herself and thought: If she hadn't taken the thoughts and anxieties that her daughter had confided to her more to heart, and used the power of the Jiang'an Marquis' Mansion to look for the girl from the Xie family, would her daughter not have gotten into trouble, and would she not have suddenly gone crazy for no reason!

"Auntie..."

Jiang Wei was somewhat frightened by the sudden bursting into tears of Madam Jiang Anhou, whose tears were becoming more and more turbulent and unstoppable.

He felt that his mother's unspoken hesitation was probably not a trivial matter.

When his eyes fell on Sheng Ji, who was standing at the door waiting for instructions, Jiang Wei frowned, stood up with a serious expression, walked over to the man, and whispered, "Go and see if the Marquis and the Young Master are in the mansion. If they are, please come and have dinner with us."

He made up an excuse: "I asked a friend to help me transport some shad from Yuhang, and they were still alive and kicking. I invited them to come over and have a taste of the fresh fish."

Sheng Ji nodded, but hesitated.

Jiang Wei knew what he wanted to ask, and quickly said, "If the Marquis and the Young Master are not in the mansion, then ask where they have gone and send someone out to look for them."

He lowered his voice and warned: "If you want to find someone, remember to use our own people who are trustworthy to pass the message."

"To the outside world, just tell them that I got some fresh shad and invite the Marquis and the eldest young master to come back to the mansion to taste them. Don't let any flaws slip!"

"Tell the Marquis quietly that there is an urgent matter in the palace. Return quickly, or something bad will happen!"

Jiang Wei looked at the man and said, "This is a major event that concerns the prosperity and decline of the mansion. You must pay attention to it and don't alarm others!"

Sheng Ji's expression suddenly became serious, as if facing a great enemy, and he nodded cautiously!

"My subordinates will definitely live up to their orders!"

Jiang Wei was still confident in Sheng Ji and patted him on the shoulder: "Go quickly."

Sheng Ji didn't dare to waste time and left quietly and quickly.

When Jiang Wei returned to the side of Madam Jiang'an Hou, she had stopped sobbing and was no longer crying, but her eyes were staring at him intently, as if she had a thousand words to say.

"Your father and his family will be back soon?"

Although it was a questioning tone, Madam Jiang Anhou had already received confirmation.

She breathed a sigh of relief, obviously having heard what Jiang Wei had just said to Sheng Ji at the door.

Jiang Wei walked over, held the hand of Madam Jiang Anhou, and squeezed it gently: "Mother!"

"Everything I said is true. What do you know? When father and elder brother come back later, you must tell us the truth!"

"Even if we finally figure out that this incident has nothing to do with the truth behind my sister's murder, we have eliminated one of the causes. We won't waste any more time on this!"

Jiang Wei looked at Madam Jiang Anhou with a serious and worried expression: "No matter what, you and my father can't escape anymore!"

"As long as the truth of my sister's murder is not uncovered, there will never be peace in the Jianghou Mansion."

His eyes darkened slightly, revealing hatred and rage, impotent rage.

"Do you think that the man who suddenly arranged a marriage between me and Princess Shao'an is really going to reconcile with our Jiang'an Marquis Mansion and show favor to our Jiang'an Marquis Mansion again?"

Mrs. Jiang'an Marquis's eyes were filled with confusion.

It seems to be a silent question: Isn’t it?
Ever since the news of the arranged marriage came out, the husband has been happy all the time.

All he talked about was the emperor's grace, which would return to their Jiang'an Marquis Mansion.

As long as they seize this opportunity and show great sincerity, His Majesty will naturally think that the Jiang'an Marquisate is no longer a threat and that giving them some charity will be enough to make them wag their tails and curry favor with him!

Only in this way can they regain the trust of His Majesty.

Only by regaining the trust and favor of the emperor, those people in the capital who are used to changing their attitude according to the situation, flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak, and fawning on the weak, will believe again that their Jiang'an Marquis Mansion is not a grasshopper after autumn that will not last long.

In this way, he will have room to show his strength!

As long as he is given the opportunity to take power again, he will not have to worry about returning to the position of being second only to the emperor and above everyone else. If he works harder and makes friends with any of the concubines in the palace... he will no longer have a daughter to send to the palace.

He couldn't send gifts again, even if it was to the side branch of the Jiang'an Marquis's Mansion, he couldn't even think about it.

Otherwise it would certainly backfire and cause the emperor to become suspicious again.

But if he secretly becomes close with a concubine...it would be best if she is a concubine with a prince.

When the day comes when the emperor passes away and the new emperor ascends the throne, he will be a well-deserved follower of the emperor and a key minister assisting the government!
If by chance, the prince is still young, and power may fall into the hands of external relatives, the emperor will have to take action personally to kill the mother and save the son.

That would be even more perfect for him.

He had been thinking about using the emperor to control the princes for many years.

If handled properly and with the support of the people, it would not be impossible to change the dynasty.

He is naturally loyal to the emperor and to Dajing!

But it is not a bad idea for his descendants to save the country from collapse and worship him as the founding emperor of the dynasty!
Jiang Wei had no idea what his father was planning.

If he knew about this, he would definitely scold his father for having wild ideas.

He was so foolish and naive. If he really wanted to make friends with the concubines and support the young prince, I'm afraid that as soon as he showed this sign, the guillotine that failed to fall directly on the heads of everyone in their Jiang'an Marquis Mansion after his sister died would be chopped down immediately.

How stupid must the emperor be to be unaware of such a plan that was clear to everyone?
Perhaps if others do this, there is a chance of success.

As long as the emperor believes in that person's loyalty, even if he is disloyal, he is still a loyal right-hand man!
But if the emperor does not believe in that person's loyalty, no matter how loyal he is, the emperor will only personally dig out that person's warm and sincere heart to see whether he is truly loyal!
Even if you let him dig it, you'll lose your life in vain.

The emperor would only say: If you are so stupid, what’s the use of Zhonglai?

Devaluing you to the point of being worthless.

Only in this way can it be shown that the emperor is infallible.

What's more, a family like the Jianghou Mansion had already been suspected of loyalty by the emperor once, and he wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible.

However, Jiang Wei agreed to seize the imperial power and become an emperor.

The imperial power harmed him, so he overthrew the imperial power. So what?

But there is no need to say such things out loud.

As long as he knows what is going on, that's enough.

Jiang Wei knew very well that he would never be able to explain such thoughts to his family, so he simply decided not to do anything useless.

He only talked about the pros and cons of the arranged marriage.

"If that person really wanted to repeat the glory and favor of the Marquis of Jiang'an Mansion, he wouldn't have casually pointed me to Princess Shao'an, who I don't know what she looks like or where she came from!"

"It is even more unacceptable that the marriage has been scheduled for such a long time, but the family of Princess Shao'an has never come to discuss the many matters of the marriage with us."

"Those henchmen in front of the emperor are so sharp-eyed and sharp-eared! We are jumping up and down, making a big fuss, and openly investigating the news about Princess Shao'an in Kyoto. How could that person not know?"

"They clearly knew how anxious we were, but they kept silent and refused to reveal any information. It was obvious that they were treating us like headless flies and playing with us for fun!"

Jiang Wei's tone was a little anxious and his emotions were fluctuating greatly.

Madam Jiang An was slightly startled: "Is that so?"

She looked a little dazed.

If what Jiang Wei said was the truth, then what was the point of her husband's rosy face and joy these days?

Are you being too sentimental?

"What do you think?" Jiang Wei was angry, so his tone was not very respectful.

Madam Jiang An was stunned for a long time, and then she seemed to lose her strength and said, "I thought, I thought..."

She thought her daughter still had some weight in the heart of the emperor who acted decisively and ruthlessly.

That's why he took his anger out on the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion because of his daughter's death.

Now that time has passed and circumstances have changed, he began to think of his daughter's good qualities, so he gradually stopped venting his anger on her and began to show kindness to Jiang'an Marquis' Mansion.

But what Jiang Wei said also makes sense...

If, if the man in the palace really wanted to repair the relationship with the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion, and thought of the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion as his beloved maternal family, he would no longer kill them, and would no longer embarrass the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion, so that the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion could not hold its head up among the powerful people in Kyoto, so he granted such a marriage. How could he, how could he condone the woman's rudeness, hiding her true colors, and refusing to come forward to discuss the dowry with their family.

It can't be that the girl's family is impoverished, and the title of princess is just a nice one. In reality, her family has no financial resources and can't even afford a dowry comparable to that of the wealthy and powerful in the capital, right?
Or maybe... that person just wanted to find someone at random, who might even be a bastard of unknown origin, to humiliate and pollute the bloodline of his Jiang'an Marquis Mansion, and also to humiliate the reputation of his Jiang'an Marquis Mansion. He would wait until the day of the wedding, and then hurriedly stuff the person into the bridal sedan.

At that time, they will have to accept it even if they don’t want to!
Because of this, the Jiang'an Marquis Mansion will become the laughing stock of everyone in the capital!
A topic of conversation after dinner!
Is all this really a conspiracy?
The more Lady Jiang Anhou thought about it, the more she felt a chill on her back.

She fell into the chair with weak legs, until Marquis Jiang An hurriedly came in from outside. She seemed to have found her backbone again, stood up, and took a few steps forward: "Master..."

The voice was already trembling.

Jiang Anhou was already worried about something going on in the mansion. His eyes darkened and he was mentally preparing to receive bad news: "What happened?"

The voice was also trembling in a similar way.

"I asked someone to invite my father and eldest brother back."

Jiang Wei noticed the anxiety and fatigue of Marquis Jiang'an's wife, so he walked over to help her and took her to sit down next to him. Then he turned his head again and looked directly at Marquis Jiang'an: "The identity of Princess Shao'an may have been revealed."

"who is it?"

Marquis Jiang An could hardly hide his joy, and he was obviously looking forward to this marriage granted by the emperor.

But soon, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Yes...Is there any problem with the identity of Princess Shaoan?"

Could it be that the emperor, in order to justify his assassination of the Marquis of Jiang'an Mansion, found some orphan of the previous dynasty and framed him for treason and rebellious intentions?
Jiang Anhou thought of many bad possibilities.

"There is a little problem. However, when I was talking to my mother just now, I also heard another story. Maybe..." Jiang Wei paused and looked directly at Jiang Anhou: "It is related to the truth of my sister's murder!"

As if he wanted to stop Marquis Jiang An from angrily scolding him for being absurd and obsessed with things that happened many years ago, Jiang Wei said even faster: "If we want to save the Marquis Jiang An's Mansion from collapse, the truth about my sister's death is crucial! I have insisted on looking for clues over the years, not only because I value the relationship between me and my sister, but also for the Marquis Jiang An's Mansion! To find a way out for the hundreds of people in the Marquis Jiang An's Mansion!"
