Once the Crown Prince Joins In

095: Return the Dowry Like a Grandson

, the latest chapter is updated the fastest!

In front of the prince, Su Xinyi felt particularly restrained. For some reason, seeing him was like a wild horse on a bridle.

For a person like the breeze and the bright moon, His Royal Highness the Prince always felt that speaking loudly to him was a blasphemy.

Su Xinyi sat there obediently, looking at her elder brother and asked, "Brother, what do you want to ask me?"

Su Yi was unhappy when he talked about this, "You also said that if a girl goes to a gambling house and her grandmother finds out, you will be in trouble."

Su Xinyi: ...

Even if she was in awe, she still glared at the prince with courage.

Yan Junchu: ...

Su Xinyi had a knack for dealing with her elder brother, and immediately turned the tables, "I wanted to ask my elder brother for help, but who knew that my elder brother was busy beating Shi Zhongqian. I am so good at beating people, why didn't you remember to ask me for help?"

Su Yi: ...

Having found a sharp-tongued sister, he finally knew what it felt like to raise a naughty child.

Yan Junchu thought that Su Yi, such an honest man, was really helpless when he met such a tricky sister. He coughed lightly, looked at Su Xinyi and asked, "There is new progress in the Wu Shun murder case. Is the sixth lady interested in listening?"

She was very interested!

Su Xinyi immediately retracted her fierce look at her eldest brother, and changed her face to look at the prince with a well-behaved face, "I know that your highness is a good man who can distinguish right from wrong. Wu Shun was wronged, right? I don't know where your highness has found out. Did you ask me to come because I can help?"

Su Xinyi's mind turned quickly. The prince was so busy that he didn't have time to meet a small person like her just to drink tea and chat. There must be something important.

Yan Junchu's smile froze. What's wrong with this Su Xinyi? Every time they met, she would praise him as a good person. Now he felt a toothache when he heard the word "good person".

Yan Junchu calmed down, looked at Su Xinyi and asked, "That night, the sixth lady told me that you had met Wu. I wonder if there was anything unusual about Wu when you met her?"

Su Xinyi went to the banquet at the Dongli Palace that day, of course she had never seen Wu. She just fooled the prince with the memory of her previous life.

Now the prince suddenly asked her, she could only pretend to recall, and then said, "I was a guest at the Dongli Palace at that time, and I just met Wu, the concubine, and I didn't talk much with her. She just pointed me to the way and left."

"What does the sixth lady know about the rumors in the backyard of the Dongli Palace?"

Hmm?

Su Xinyi always felt that the direction of the question was a bit weird, but Wu was a concubine in the backyard, so it was natural to ask about the backyard.

She racked her brains to think about the gossip about the Dongli Palace in her previous life, and finally she could only say: "I don't know much, I only know that the relationship between the King of Dongli and the Princess of Dongli is not harmonious, and the King of Dongli favors Concubine An more. It is said that Concubine Wu was promoted by the Princess of Dongli to control Concubine An."

Thinking of this, Su Xinyi suddenly thought of something. The son born by Concubine An in the Dongli Palace seemed to be asked by the King of Dongli to be the Crown Prince. Although His Majesty rejected it, the King of Dongli seemed to have been unwilling to give up.

Thinking of this, she coughed lightly, "When I went to visit that day, I occasionally heard a little bit of the wall. It seems that I heard that the King of Dongli wanted to ask for the title of Crown Prince for the son born by Concubine An. I don't know if it is true or false."

The prince was thoughtful after hearing this.

Su Yi's face was a little ugly, looking at his sister and said: "Aren't you investigating the Qin Guogong Mansion?"

"Yes." Su Xinyi nodded, but what does this matter have to do with the Dongli Palace?

These two things are not related at all, right?

Seeing that his sister really didn't know, Su Yi said to her, "I have been investigating the Wu Shun murder case these days. I found out that Concubine An was involved. Then I found out that Concubine An's brother An Jingqi had frequent dealings with a salt merchant, and this salt merchant had a daughter."

Su Xinyi was stunned and had a bad premonition. Is it just a coincidence?

"Could this daughter be the one who will enter the Duke of Qin's mansion as a concubine?"

Su Yi nodded.

Su Xinyi's heart skipped a beat and she turned to look at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Yan Junchu met Su Xinyi's eyes and felt that there were some thoughts in her eyes that she couldn't understand. Somehow, he said, "Ma Rude is the largest salt merchant in Guangping. His daughter Ma Qiaoyan is beautiful. Shi Zhongqian has met her once."

Ma Qiaoyan?

Ma Yi?

Su Xinyi's heart skipped a beat. Yes, in the previous life, there was a Ma Yi who was particularly favored in the Duke of Qin's mansion, but this Ma Yi was very low-key. Even she rarely knew about this Ma Yi.

Because this Ma Yi Niang was very low-key, she didn't know how Su Baiwei was doing in the Duke Qin's Mansion in her previous life.

But now, listening to what the prince and Su Yi said, if this favored Ma Yi Niang had a father with a huge network of connections behind her, and she was also a concubine who brought a huge amount of money into the house, the Duke Qin's Mansion had to support this concubine in order to have money to spend, not to mention that this concubine had a beautiful face, so you can imagine how difficult Su Baiwei's life was.

Why is this Ma Yi Niang so low-key?

It's probably because of the salt merchant business her biological father did.

Su Xinyi suppressed the huge waves in her heart, but she didn't know that the strangeness in her eyes was seen clearly by the prince.

Yan Junchu retracted his gaze before Su Xinyi noticed it, and asked casually, "Sixth Miss is investigating the affairs of the Duke Qin's Mansion. Do you know this Ma Yi Niang?"

Su Xinyi retracted her somewhat messy thoughts, picked up the teacup and sipped the tea to calm her nerves, and then said: "I found out that the name of the outer chamber of the Duke of Qin's mansion is Chu Yingying, and this Chu Yingying is the salt merchant. If the salt merchant behind Chu Yingying is the same person as found by His Highness, then this matter may not be that simple. "

A Chu Yingying brought the Duke of Dongli's Palace and the Duke of Qin together. The question now is that Chu Yingying is indirectly the concubine An's, so does Prince Dongli know about Concubine An's conspiracy against the Duke of Qin's Palace?

The most important thing is, what is the ultimate purpose of calculating Qin Guogong?

If there was no plan, how could Ma Rude and Concubine An be worth so much effort to drag the Duke of Qin into trouble, even risking offending the Duke of Qi's government by letting Ma Qiaoyan be Shi Zhongqian's concubine?

There must be huge interests for them to take such risks.

Su Xinyi couldn't help but think of Shang Junyan. Did he know?

Shang Junyan would not know about such a big matter when he was walking outside.

If Shang Junyan knew about it but she knew nothing about it, and if Shang Junyan assisted Prince Rong again, then His Highness the Crown Prince would probably be at a disadvantage.

"What Miss Sixth said makes sense. Because this matter is unusual, Ma Rude's case must now be included in the case." Yan Junchu looked at Su Xinyi and said.

Su Xinyi understood that since the Wushun murder case was investigated here, Ma Rude would definitely come into the prince's sight, and she could not delay the prince's important affairs because of her eldest sister's reconciliation.

However, she still looked at His Highness the Crown Prince and asked, "Will that delay my eldest sister's marriage?"

The tragedy of Su Baiwei's previous life cannot be repeated. As the prince said, Shi Zhongqian had already met Ma Qiaoyan in private. Shi Zhongqian did not refuse the concubine this time. Not to mention that it was the million-dollar dowry that Ma Qiaoyan brought, but Ma Qiaoyan's appearance made Shi Zhongqian very fond of him. Favorite.

In this case, if Su Baiwei can't reconcile, it will really be over if Su Baiwei goes back.

She felt that Su Baiwei's lack of reconciliation in her previous life had a lot to do with her falling into the water to get married. She couldn't watch her struggling in the quagmire in this life.

If this matter affects Su Baiwei and Li, then she will have to think of other ways.

Yan Junchu was very surprised that Su Xinyi had just recognized the child, but her feelings for Qi Guogong's mansion seemed to be very unusual. When encountering such a thing, others would probably avoid it, but she had to protect Su Baiwei first.

"No." Yan Junchu said.

Su Xinyi smiled, "I knew His Highness was a good person."

Yan Junchu: I never want to hear the word "good person" again in my life.

He was very surprised as to why Su Xinyi was so persistent in thinking that he was a good person.

He doesn't even think he is a good person.

"Then what are your highness's plans next? Should I be thinking about my eldest sister and Li, or should I cut through the mess quickly and not let the Duke of Qin hold me back?" Su Xinyi said directly.

Her eldest brother was probably embarrassed to say this, but she had to make it clear.

"I have evidence that Duke Qin owes a gambling debt. Can you think of it?"

"That's really great!" Su Xinyi was pleasantly surprised. She still had a headache how to get the evidence. She didn't expect that the prince was the prince and got it all first.

Yan Junchu looked at Su Xinyi's cheerful smile and laughed too.

"Let Captain Su take the evidence and go to the Duke of Qin's Mansion with you. Don't let the elders come forward for this kind of thing. After all, with Miss Six's current prestige, even if they come to the door, the Duke of Qin's Mansion will probably just hold their noses. admit."

Su Xinyi immediately cupped his hands and said, "Fighting is just a vulgar act that cannot be brought to the table. The key is that His Highness's evidence is powerful. Thank you for Your Highness's help..."

Yan Junchu was afraid that she would say you are a good person again, so he immediately interrupted her and said: "The evidence can only be given to you for one use, and you will have to get it back later. Isn't this difficult to do?"

"Of course." Su Xinyi failed to praise His Highness as a good person and still had some unfinished intentions. This was nothing, so he immediately agreed.

Su Yi watched her sister chatting animatedly with His Highness, as if she had completely forgotten that she had a brother.

The prince handed the evidence to Su Xinyi. Su Xinyi put the things away and immediately stood up to say goodbye, "Your Highness, my eldest brother and I are going to the Duke of Qin's Mansion."

Yan Junchu watched Su Xinyi grab Su Yi and run away like a gust of wind, and swallowed the words he said later, "I'll lend you some bodyguards."

Forget it, with Su Xinyi's abilities, the wine bags and rice bags in the Duke of Qin's mansion probably couldn't beat her.

Su Yi came out of Da Sanyuan and saw his sister bringing the horse back and about to leave, so he said to her, "Just the two of us going?"

Shouldn't I go back home and take someone with me if I'm sad?

Su Xinyi was stunned, "It's enough for the two of us to go there. Can the bunch of drunkards and rice-bags in the Duke of Qin's Mansion be the bastards?"

"You're a girl, please speak politely." Su Yi had a headache.

"Oh, the only way to overcome the sufferings in this world is by oneself."

Su Yi:......

never mind.

He wiped his face and followed his sister directly through the door of the Duke of Qin's mansion.

Su Yi swore that he had never seen his sister so arrogant in his life... Bah, what a brave person.

The horse stopped in front of the Duke of Qin's Mansion. Su Yi's eyes were dazzled when he saw his sister take out a three-foot-long iron rod from under the horse's belly. Little did he know that when she stretched out her hand and pulled it, the iron rod changed with a "click". As soon as the red tassel on the spear tip flashed, the two servants guarding the gate of Duke Qin's Mansion were pushed aside by her, kicked open the door, and rushed in.

Those who knew it were coming and leaving, but those who didn't knew thought it was a house raid.

Little did Su Yi know that Su Xinyi had been holding back her anger for two lifetimes. In her previous life, the Duke of Qin's palace had been despicable and shameless in dragging Su Baiwei away, forcing her to take a concubine, and also to act as a front for the Duke of Qin's palace.

After letting Su Baiwei go, how could Shi Zhongqian marry another woman from her family background?

I also need money, people, and face. Even if I want so much, I’m not afraid of dying.

Su Xinyi fought all the way in, causing the Duke of Qin's mansion to panic. Duke Qin and Shi Zhongqian had just been beaten, and they were still recovering from their injuries in bed. After receiving the news, they did not bother to stay in bed, and came out to take charge of the overall situation despite being injured.

Mrs. Qin Guogong's legs became weak when she saw Su Xinyi. When she saw her husband and son coming out, she straightened her back immediately. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Su Xinyi stood in front of Qin Guogong, took out a piece of paper and stamped it on the In front of him.

Duke Qin's expression immediately changed, and he stretched out his hand to grab it. Su Xinyi flicked his wrist and took the thing back, looking at Duke Qin's particularly kind smile, "Master Guo, can you see the painting on this clearly? Thirty. Wanliang, you are really rich, and you gave it to the gambling shop."

As soon as these words came out, the expression of Qin Guogong's wife also changed, and Shi Zhongqian's expression was not good-looking. None of them expected that this matter would be known to the people of Qi Guogong's palace.

They had been trying their best to hide it, just not wanting to be discovered by them.

Su Yi also took a step forward at this time and said: "I have written a letter of peace and separation from now on, so that we can talk and part ways. Otherwise, I am afraid that someone will have to look at the deed signed by the Duke himself. "

Su Yi has never said such harsh words in his life, but his sister told him that he must be firm and ruthless, otherwise today's matter will not end well.

Su Xinyi listened to her eldest brother's words and thought to herself that her eldest brother was really not a bad guy. What kind of cruel words were they?

This is to tell others that I am soft-hearted and easy to bully!

Sure enough, I heard Qin Guogong say: "What are you talking about? I don't care about you because you are a junior. When Bai Wei enters my house, she will be the eldest son and young lady of my Shi family. She will be honored and decent all her life..."

Su Xinyi really couldn't stand listening anymore. The spear in his hand flashed, and the silver light flashed. The Duke of Qin shook his head and could not continue what he said.

Su Xinyi had no intention of attacking Duke Qin, but Shi Zhongqian was not polite. She kicked him to the ground and put the sharp spearhead against his throat.

Mrs. Qin Guogong was so frightened that she suppressed her screams. She was afraid that Su Xinyi's hands would shake when she screamed, and there would be holes in her son's throat. "If you have something to say, if you have something to say, put your gun away first." return!"

Su Xinyi sneered, "When Shi Zhongqian saw Ma Qiaoyan, why didn't he think about how to talk to my sister?" At this point, Su Xinyi pressed the tip of his spear down, "Shi Zhongqian, that Ma Qiaoyan looks good, isn't it? You have to let go and join forces with your family to force my sister to let her in. Beauty is beautiful, but it also depends on whether you have the fate to enjoy that beauty!"

Shi Zhongqian only felt a pain in his throat. It was a shame and humiliation to be pushed to the ground with the tip of a gun pressed against his throat. However, he did not dare to resist. He wanted to say something about the misunderstanding, but looking at Su Xinyi's evil face, he did not dare. No more nonsense.

He had a feeling that if he dared to speak out, there might really be multiple holes in his throat.

Moreover, how did she know about his meeting with Ma Qiaoyan?

Shi Zhongqian felt furious in his heart, and his complexion was white with blue in it.

Su Xinyi looked at Shi Zhongqian's coward look, thinking how could such a piece of shit be worthy of her eldest sister!

Su Xinyi looked at the family, and then at the servants lying on the ground in a mess outside. The madam didn't even show her face, tsk tsk.

It's a bit of a pity.

If the old lady doesn't come out, it's hard for her to knock on the door. That would appear to be unreasonable and cruel.

"The Duke of Qin is really good at planning. It's not just that my grandparents are easy to talk to. My eldest uncle is an honest man, and my eldest aunt loves her daughter. Despicable people do despicable things. They want both people and wealth, and they also want a good wife to be a facade. , You think you are beautiful, but you are not beautiful, God has not opened your eyes. "

Su Xinyi's sarcasm could be clearly heard by people inside and outside the house. It was not just that his face was peeled off and stepped into the mud, it was almost like peeling off the skin and bones.

"My family is easy to talk to, and my eldest brother is honest, but I am not easy to bully. Today Shi Zhongqian wrote a letter of release from his wife and completely counted my eldest sister's dowry. We can talk and part ways. From now on, they are separated and happy. No. It’s easy to talk about it, so I’ll fight until you agree!”

"You... you are simply a female bandit!" Mrs. Qin Guogong was so frightened and hated that she almost fainted from anger.

"I'm far inferior to you, but I still have to study hard." Su Xinyi smiled.

Don’t you know what the Duke of Qin is doing?

If you don't get beaten, you have to make peace with Li and return the dowry!

Even if you get beaten, you still have to reconcile and pay back the dowry!

The result is the same, why should I get a beating?

Duke Guo of Qin knew that what he had done was unreasonable. If word got out, he would never raise his head in his life. He immediately said with a livid face: "Okay, our family can't afford such a daughter-in-law. Write it, write it now! But!" , you have to give me the previous deed!”

"You are really daydreaming. Now that you have the evidence in your hands, so that after we leave, you can go around and ruin my eldest sister's reputation? Although I have a hot temper, every word I speak is misleading. It's not like some people who are so white-faced. He is a sinister person. As long as he writes a letter to let go of his wife and owes gambling debts, our Su family will never say a word to anyone."

Su Xinyi just won't give it, what can Duke Qin do?

It was impossible to scold or beat him, and there was no other way except to agree.

At this moment, the wife of Duke Qin suddenly said: "Jie Yun is the offspring of our Shi family. She must be sent back, otherwise the divorce will not be written."

Su Xinyi looked at the wife of Duke Qin in surprise, "I thought you loved your son, but it turns out you were just talking."

As she said this, Su Xinyi pressed down the spear in her hand again. Shi Zhongqian felt the pain in his neck even more and immediately shouted: "Write, I'll write, and the child will be yours!"

It was just a girl.

Su Yi lifted Shi Zhongqian from the ground with a green face and gritted his teeth, "Write! Write now!"

Although they would not give Jie Yun to them, Shi Zhongqian, a coward, just let it go. He could imagine what kind of life Jie Yun would have if she stayed!

Although Su Yi was an honest man, he was also a little ferocious with anger at this moment. He felt that he was a little blind before and always thought that this brother-in-law was a human being.

Su Xinyi stared at Shi Zhongqian writing a divorce letter, and then nodded with satisfaction after watching him stamp the seal himself.

Then she looked at the wife of Duke Qin and said with a smile: "Madam, my eldest sister's dowry can be counted now. We don't want any of the things in your Duke Qin's mansion, but you can't lose a single hair of my eldest sister's dowry."

This means that you should spit out what you have eaten. Don't force me to make you spit it out. You have to take it out even if you are beaten. Isn't it a waste of beating?

Su Xinyi will not beat the wife of Duke Qin. Isn't Shi Zhongqian still here?

Su Baiwei is the eldest daughter of the Duke Qi's mansion. When she got married, her dowry was very generous. Although Su Xinyi didn't know the truth in the past few years of marriage, her sister said last time that the Duke Qin's mansion did not embezzle her eldest sister's dowry.

The wife of Duke Qin's hands trembled again and again, and she wished she could faint immediately after closing her eyes. She heard Su Xinyi say, "Speaking of which, your family will soon have a concubine with a dowry of one million. You won't care about this little money, right? Madam, spend money to avoid disaster."

Duke Qin was sitting there with a stern face, listening to this and looking at his wife, "Let them take it away, get out!"

The wife of Duke Qin's face turned green, gritted her teeth and said with a bit of sarcasm, "Your eldest sister's dowry key is in her own hands, how can I have it."

"That's easy, isn't it just a lock? Just break it!" Su Xinyi walked away, "Where is the warehouse? Don't bother you, I'll break it myself."

Perhaps the three words "break it myself" were too heavy, and the wife of Duke Qin didn't say anything this time, pointing to the housekeeper beside her to lead the way. She didn't want to see Su Xinyi at all.

When they left that day, Su Baiwei returned to the mansion with her two older maids. The other dowries were still there. Su Xinyi took a walk and got the dowry list from her eldest sister's most trusted dowry manager, so a group of people started to check the list in the warehouse.

The things that were taken out of the warehouse in recent years were marked on the list, and it was clear what was taken out, who had it, and what it was used for.

Su Xinyi didn't care much about these external things, but when she saw the things that were taken away by the Duke of Qin's Mansion, her forehead was still throbbing.

Perhaps the threat was very important, and the Duke of Qin's wife was afraid that Su Xinyi would make trouble again, so she sent back everything that could be sent back, and used silver to make up for the things that had been spent.

On the way back to the Duke of Qi's Mansion, Su Yi was still a little dazed.

The sixth sister said that the people in the Duke of Qin's Mansion would send the dowry back like a grandson, and he always thought it was a joke.

But now he believes it.
