Chapter 380 Qiu Jinglan’s Self-justification

Author: Fan Duo

Sir Jibei was not easy to deal with as Ling Zui thought.

He just never suspected Jiang Qizheng and Ou Qinglan.

After all, in the eyes of the elders, the former was a typical lady from a noble family, who was simple, innocent, and weak. And despite her recognized force, the latter was not a deep one. Anyway, the two were sheltered children to Sir Jibei.

Furthermore, they were part of his own family.

So, Si Jibei could never guess that the death of Jiang Yayue and Jiang Yaqing was basically planned and executed by the two “terrified” juniors. And the black sheep of the family Jiang Yadan, whom he had the almost overwhelming desire to kill, just bore the blame for them as the first true-born son of the fourth branch.

But he suspected Qiu Jinglan, the savior of his two children!

It was getting dark and began to snow again. Jiang Yadan was still nowhere to be found."Is he scared off? It's so cold out there. As useless as he is, where can he go in such a hurry even if he brings men with him?" Thinking of which, Sir Jibei couldn't sit tight. He wanted to kill Jiang Yadan as he was mad back then. But how could he kill Jiang Yadan after he calmed down?After all, Jiang Yayue and Jiang Yaqing couldn't come back to life. There was no turning back among the fourth branch, the first branch, and the third branch. Killing Jiang Yadan would only make things worse. As a senior of the Jiang Family, how could Sir Jibei kill another junior?The living was more important than the dead. Eve

    In Shazhou, the news that Jiang Yayue and Jiang Yaqing died was like a bolt from the blue. However, Shazhou was far away from Jing City and so it hadn't been sent there yet.At this moment Jing City was in a mess. An urgent message arrived from Beijiang, saying that Madame Zhuang took her beloved daughter's letters written in blood and returned to Jing City to host her funeral.According to the rules, the urgent message could only be delivered for a military emergency.But now, nobody would find fault with Jiang Tianchi because of the power of the Jiang Family. Most of those who knew Madame Zhuang well wiped the sweat to appreciate that Jiang Tianchi was kind to tell them before she arrived lest they were captured unconsciously when they knew nothing.Like the Mi Family, when Old Madame heard the news, her face turned pale immediately. She rushed to ask her servants to prepare a generous gift and sent it to Qiu Yelan. And sh

    Though the news that Madame Zhuang would return to Jing City created a disturbance in the court, she didn't arrive yet. There were so many things to deal with.For Qiu Yelan, the rumor which ruined Wang Qingqian’s reputation wasn’t finished yet."As you are unwilling to tell me what you have found out in the Governor's Office, I will not ask you anymore." Qiu Yelan held a bolster and complained to her husband, "But her reputation should be clarified. Though Zhaoyi Miao and Prince of Wei know she is innocent, it won't be wonderful if we don't clarify the issue to the public for her."Jiang Yashuang felt strange, "Haven’t I asked the government to clarify it for her?""Shall we ask our aunt to reward her something as a kind of comfort?" Qiu Yelan acted coquettishly to him. "I don't want to extort. But if the future daughter-in-law like her comes across something which will almost ruin her reputation, it will be the best way to

    Qiu Yelan went out to the Flower Hall and exchanged pleasantries with Madame Shi and He Shuijin, who indeed came to explain about Wang Qingqian. “We are sisters-in-law! Now that I’m here, I’m going to cut to the chase! Earlier my family’s younger sister was indeed disappointed that she was not chosen as a princess!”Before she came, Madame Shi was prepared to make amends. It would be more humiliating to beat around the bush and waste time. So, as He Shuijin implied Qiu Yelan to clear the hall, she came right to the point, “At that time, we did want to embarrass Miss Wang and take our revenge! But, this time, it wasn’t me or the Shi family who did it!”He Shuijin supported her as well, “My sixth sister-in-law has always been a straightforward one. As long as she says no, it won’t be wrong. I can vouch for her!” She must have investigated and confirmed it when she dared to say that. Qiu Yelan was amazed in her heart, “Wasn’t it the third

    "Except Qiu Jinglan and the Eighth Young Master, the most possible culprit naturally should be the remaining people of Gu!""However, if the one who was able to plan such a scheme and cause the death of the two young masters wasn’t a prominent figure of Gu, it would make no sense!""For example, Deng Yi. This man is the only one who was sent away to hide by the Young Prince of Duke of Guangyang when he sensed that the Gu Family’s regime had been in its death throes!""But Deng Yi's whereabouts are hard to find. If it were he who did it this time, we should have found some traces.

    Qiu Feng arrived in Shazhou without any trouble. It wasn't because Qiu Jinglan's subordinates completely hid it from Sir Jibei's scouts. The real reason was that Sir Jibei's top priority was to make Prince of Cai the culprit of killing his two grandnephews. Although he was furious when he knew that Qiu Feng was about to come, he decided to keep pretending not to know after weighing his options. After all, he really didn't have the time.Besides, what could he do when he saw Qiu Feng? Beating him up wasn’t enough and Jiang Qizheng might be upset about it. Killing him would make his grandniece a widow and his grand grandnephew a fatherless child. Sir Jibei couldn't do things like that. So, he might as well not see him.However, not seeing Qiu Feng didn't make Sir Jibei feel happy. So, he didn't mention sending Jiang Qizheng and others to Shazhou to rest, "Does that man rush here to find Zheng'er? I won't let him see her."He wanted to tort

    Though Qiu Feng's origin was striking, he was not the person who would take advantage of it. That was also what Qiu Jinglan and Ren Ziyong meant. So, he would not make any impact on the overall situation. They arranged accommodation in the guest house for Qiu Feng. Qiu Jinglan talked about the past with Ren Ziyong for a while and then they got down to business. If Sir Jibei chose to focus on the overall situation, it was time for Han Jishan, the temporary general, to set aside.It took Sir Jibei some time to prepare the human testimony, material evidence, and contractors inside Jing City to take control of the overall situation. So, he blocked the delivery of the message that his nephews died to Jing City. As a consequence, in Jing City, people thought that Jiang Qizheng was murdered while others were safe.
