Never divorce, never stop getting rich

Chapter 167 1 False Alarm

It seems that they all came prepared. It seems that the Concubine Dowager's absence gave these people the wrong impression that this was an opportunity to attack the Marquis' Mansion and her.

Qian Qiansui immediately understood and shouted through the curtain, "There's been a recent bereavement in the family. Why are you forcing me? The Concubine Dowager misses my husband so much that she's inevitably haggard. I don't know your true intentions, but there are only my mother-in-law and I in the mansion. Can't you even tolerate this?"

The noise was so loud that it could almost be heard on the street outside. Some curious people looked inside, but when they saw the guards brought by the eldest prince, they were a little scared and could only stand at the street corner and walk back and forth. Those curious people should have spread the news by now.

The eldest prince had already begun to think about withdrawing. After all, it was not easy to say this, especially when he was about to become the crown prince. It was just a family affair of the marquis's mansion, and there was no need for him to get involved in this mess.

"It's precisely because I'm worried about the Concubine that I've come all this way. After all, the Concubine is now isolated and helpless. If my daughter-in-law is unfilial... I have to come and visit her at least. Why... Is there something in this mansion that I can't see? Or is it that something has happened to the Concubine, and the person in this carriage is not the Concubine herself?"

The eldest princess sneered and winked at the guards around her.

She had sent people to keep an eye on the Marquis' Mansion a long time ago, especially after Qian Qiansui failed to get the paper business. She had always known that the Dowager Concubine had a bad relationship with the Marquis' wife. Later, she heard from her spies that after Fu Zichan's death, the Dowager Concubine had never appeared again, and the people around her had disappeared even more.

The Grand Princess felt that this was an opportunity. If Qian Qiansui really attacked the Concubine Dowager, it would be a serious crime that even the Empress could not cover up.

The guards around the eldest princess understood what he meant and drew their swords. A gust of sword wind swept the curtain of the carriage. The curtain was very thick in winter, but it still broke into two pieces in the sword wind and fell under the carriage.

"Ahhhhh!" As expected, a woman's terrified voice was heard from inside the carriage, and the people around rushed over to check.

But soon, Fu Zichan, the eldest prince, the eldest princess and others all turned pale, because the concubine was sitting in the carriage, holding the table next to her and breathing slightly, obviously she was very scared.

"I'm going to complain to the emperor. It's so rude, so rude!" The concubine covered her chest and scolded in a tone that Fu Zichan was familiar with. She even wore her favorite jewelry.

Fu Zichan's body swayed for a moment, then he quickly steady himself. He once suspected that he was dazzled when he saw the marriage procession at the street corner that day, because the princess in it was much younger than his mother. Even though there were Nanny Mei and others around her, it was possible that the girl was from his mother's maternal clan.

But he also trusted his intuition very much. When he saw the princess, he subconsciously thought that it was his mother. But when he saw the concubine in the carriage again today, he felt strange and panicked, even though this concubine had been with him day and night in the past and there was basically no flaw.

"What happened today is simply a great shame and humiliation!" Qian Qiansui pretended to be extremely angry and helped the concubine get off the carriage. At this time, the door of the mansion had been completely opened, and the guards inside also ran out to protect the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

"I will inform His Majesty and ask His Majesty to make the decision. Although my husband is no longer with us, he is still a member of the royal family. I believe Your Majesty will not allow others to bully us, an orphan and a widow."

The Grand Princess could no longer sit still the moment she saw the Concubine Dowager. The master of disguise beside her, after careful judgment, shook her head at the Grand Princess. The Grand Princess's face was full of anger, and she was too lazy to say anything. She just lowered the curtains on the carriage.

After receiving the order, the coachman quickly turned the carriage around and took the person away.

Seeing this, the others hurriedly followed and left. The eldest prince could not wait any longer and got on the carriage with Fu Zichan.

Fu Zichan opened the curtains and looked back. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were still standing on the steps at the door of the Marquis' Mansion, but he clearly saw the strange expressions on their faces.

"What? Why aren't you going in yet? What are you thinking about?" Sang Biao hadn't finished acting yet and stood at the door and said.

Qian Qiansui has been looking at Fu Zichan. Although that face is no longer the same as before, Qian Qiansui probably will find it hard to forget that look. She heard that Fu Zichan had encountered a fire before, so there is no guarantee that he might have had some other adventures.

"Ah? No, let's go back, Her Majesty." Qian Qiansui came back to his senses and pretended to help Sang Biao into the Marquis' Mansion.

After such a commotion, the eldest prince received a lot of impeachments in the court, and the eldest princess also received a lot of memorials from the censors. The empress took advantage of this and got some benefits.

As soon as she entered the house, Qian Qiansui changed her clothes. She was covered in sweat and her clothes were soaked.

If she was confronted with so many big men, she might lose her life if she was not careful. I don’t know how these people found out that the concubine was missing. It was obvious that she and Sang Biao had acted out some half-hearted scenes.

"Madam, this handkerchief doesn't seem to be ours." The little maid serving in the room was very careful. Qian Qiansui had rarely lived in the mansion recently, and the things in the room were all counted. Suddenly there were more things, which naturally attracted the attention of the little maids.

"It doesn't seem to be mine..." Qian Qiansui picked up the handkerchief and suddenly stopped when he saw the embroidery on it.

"A kid just put something down from the window and left. He was seriously injured." Sang Biao, dressed as a maid, sat next to Qian Qiansui and said in a low voice.

Qian Qiansui's hands trembled slightly, and the secret joy of escaping the danger at the hands of the Grand Princess today disappeared. Others didn't know, but she knew very well that the handkerchief was warm and mellow, and only this bastard would embroider only one kind of flower on her clothes and purse, which was the golden osmanthus on this handkerchief.

Often she would embroider a whole piece at a time, making it golden and shining, which perfectly matched her surname.

"Hey, you're holding a cub, so don't be too emotional." Cats are particularly sensitive to their owners' emotions. Sang Biao looked at her with some concern.

When Qian Qiansui opened the handkerchief, he saw that the entire sign was covered with golden osmanthus, but some of the golden osmanthus was reddish, while some was lighter.

"Help me get the map." Qian Qiansui tried hard to calm himself down. The boy put the things down and ran away. It was obviously Wen Chun's order. It would be unrealistic for her to go out and find someone in her current physical condition. The only thing she could do, besides waiting, was to reap the fruits of this man's labor.

She couldn't go far away, but there were a few places that were clearly not far from the capital and very close to Taozhou.
