My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Du Jingyi could tell that Jin Shangshu and his son were singing in harmony.

The feeling is to drag the Duke's Mansion into trouble. Although it is not stated clearly, everyone understands it. They even named Osmanthus Lane Saburo's name, which means they want to get involved with the Duke's Mansion.

After hearing this, Mr. Du Er and Mr. Du finally found a way out, immediately wailed and said to Shang Ji without caring about their face.

Second uncle, our Jing Xianqian shouldn't have done this thing of killing a thousand swords, but everything has already happened, and there is no point in blaming him. Besides, his life and death are uncertain outside now, and he doesn't know yet. Something happened in Beidi, my mother is crying her eyes out at home, so we are begging you to help us.

Who is your second uncle, Du Si? Aren't you shouting every day that you have an only son? When did you have a girl? You don't have to urinate and take care of yourself, are you worthy?

Mrs. Du was really disgusted from the bottom of her heart when they criticized her for not being able to give birth to a son many years later. Now that she had found this opportunity, she naturally wanted to go back.

Fourth Master Du's face turned red when he heard this, and his silver teeth were almost broken.

However, in this situation, even if he had ten courages, he could not make an attack. Otherwise, how would he be able to repay the three hundred thousand taels!

When he thought of this, he could only stop and speak with blood and teeth knocked out.

What my sister-in-law said is that it's not the second uncle, but the general, but the young prince. Please see that someone in the Duke's mansion is also involved, and help us.

After hearing what he said, Mr. Du really felt that people could be stupid, but he didn't expect that they could be so stupid.

In front of so many people, you want to grab the Duke's pigtails. Is this because you are afraid that you will die too easily, so you want to find an uglier way to die?

Sure enough, just when Mr. Du's thoughts came out, Shang Ji, who had been silent all this time, opened his mouth and looked at Mr. Du with a smile but not a smile.

This general, I don't understand. Not to mention that the third and fifth houses have long been separated from the Duke's Mansion. Even if they are not separated, this matter does not seem to involve the Duke's Mansion. Bar.

After saying that, he clapped his hands, and soon a familiar face walked in from outside.

The person who came was none other than Shang Sanlang as mentioned by the younger brother of the Jin family.

He looked calm and composed at the moment, as if he didn't think this matter would have anything to do with him. He said to Fourth Master Du as soon as he entered the door.

This uncle, please don't bite anyone casually. I have never been involved in this matter. Why are you trying to blame me for everything, and are you trying to use my hand to throw dirty water on the Duke's mansion? This is really going to happen. The government office has just made a few arguments.

As soon as he opened his mouth, not to mention Fourth Master Du, even the Minister of Jin and the young man of the Jin family became ugly.

Originally, they had planned to get the Duke's Mansion into trouble. Not to mention how they would pay compensation, at least the Duke's Mansion was involved, and people outside would be a little more wary, so they might not really take this matter seriously. Make a big fuss.

But since Shang Sanlang dares to speak out like this, is it possible that he really has nothing to do with the Duke's Mansion?

The father and son of the Jin family looked at each other, their brows furrowed into the character Sichuan.

Especially Jin Shangshu, he didn't know that his son was involved at all, or he only used his whip to ask about Shang Sanlang once the Dongchuang incident happened.

But now, Shang Sanlang actually jumped out and said that he was not involved in this matter at all. Suddenly, Shangshu of Jin felt a chill running down his spine. Could it be that this was a trap specially set for him?

The civil servants have a hundred thoughts in their minds, but their expressions remain as still as a mountain.

Fourth Master Du is not someone who has been immersed in the court like Shangshu of Jin, so even if he plays clever tricks, he can only use three tricks, which can be seen through at once.

But for the sake of my son's life and for my family to get through this difficult time.

He didn't care anymore, so he stepped forward and pulled Shang Sanlang's sleeve and said.

This husband can't just throw his hands away and leave it to my son to deal with it. Don't you, the people in the Duke's palace, recognize what he did? For you, it's just a loss of face, but for us But you have to shed a layer of skin, how can you be so cruel and ruthless?

Fourth Master Du's words made Shang Sanlang couldn't help but think of many old things in the Duke's Mansion, and he suddenly felt ashamed on his face.

Once upon a time, didn't the people in their third- and fifth-bedroom apartments think so?

I always feel that the Duke's government is protecting me just to lose face. Now when it comes to me, I won't accept it even if it means life or death.

So, Shang Sanlang pointed to the sky and said.

Stop slandering us. If I, Shang Sanlang, didn't do anything, I didn't do it. Even if I reported it to the imperial court, I would say the same thing!

The affirmative tone in his words made Shangshu Jin feel a chill in his heart.

Could it be that he really abandoned his son, and that he still had to fill the hole of more than 300,000 taels inexplicably?

He thought silently, and no longer had the same expression as before, and then he heard Shang Ji speak calmly.

Originally, this matter has nothing to do with the Duke's Palace or my wife's natal family, but some people are deliberately trying to slander our two families, so I, the general, have to come and resolve this case.

He looked at the younger brother of the Jin family and Fourth Master Du, and with an air of superiority, he interrogated them in a serious tone.

You are so sure that the Duke's government is involved, where is the evidence?

I...I once saw the name of the merchant Sanlang in an account book that Du Jingxian carried with him. When I saw this, I asked him specifically. After confirming that the merchant Sanlang had invested five hundred taels, I also invested one. Ten thousand taels.”

After the young man from the Jin family said this, he felt extremely regretful. If he could, he should have asked someone to make a copy and keep it. Now he is really a mute eating Coptis chinensis, unable to express his suffering.

I had been in contact with Du Jingxian before, and I thought it would be a good idea to do some small business as the New Year was approaching. Unfortunately, when I learned about his breakup with the Du family, I was afraid that my sixth brother and his sixth sister would be in trouble, so I decided to Cut off contact with him.

As for the account book, I have never heard of it, so I don't know if the young man of the Jin family and the uncle of the Du family have direct evidence. If not, then don't blame me for going to the government office to sue you two. A crime of falsely accusing a court official.

Shang Sanlang was originally a minor official in the Ministry of Rites. If he were really investigated, this crime would most likely be found guilty.

Du Jingyi glanced at Shang Sanlang and thought of his wife in the house. It seemed that the couple was hiding something secretly.

In just a few words, the younger brother of the Jin family and Fourth Master Du were silenced.

If they couldn't find the account book, everything they said would be used to slander the court officials, so the young man of the Jin family, who was already panicking, was so anxious that he wet his pants.
