Chapter 229 I'm Just Afraid He'll Be Sad
Jiang Yan'an finally became a little anxious: "What should we do if she can really pin it on us?"
Jiang Yuhai pursed his lips tightly, and finally compromised after a long time: "Let someone invite her into the mansion tomorrow."
Many things can only be discussed face to face.
Jiang Yuhai really regretted his decision at this moment. If he had invited Song Yunxi into the house that day, perhaps none of this would have happened at all.
Although Jiang Yan'an was unwilling, he also understood that his father had no choice but to do so.
Thinking of the lost properties, Jiang Yanan gnashed his teeth in pain: "She cut off our source of income, how are we going to explain this to them?"
Those industries are their most profitable, and they can also find out a lot of private matters of officials in the court. Being able to keep those officials firmly in their hands is simply a lucrative business.
"I can only tell the truth, what else can I do?"
Jiang Yuhai was also distressed, so much so that he felt it hurt to even breathe. Perhaps what else could he do except to take drastic measures?
At the same time, he couldn't help but blame his son: "You too, I told you to choose people from those refugees or orphans outside the city, but you have become more and more unscrupulous over the years, and even extended your hands to the capital."
That’s good, something finally happened.
"The son just wants to make more money so that his father can be more important in the future."
After all, he was the eldest son whom he loved the most and devoted the most efforts to. Jiang Yuhai finally couldn't bear to blame him anymore: "Alright, tomorrow I will talk to Song Yunxi in person. Just agree to her conditions."
The next day, just as Song Yunxi set up her fortune-telling stall, the lofty door of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion opened.
Jiang Yan'an came out to invite her personally: "Miss, my father wants to talk to you."
For Jiang Yan'an, who was always arrogant, being so polite and humble was already extremely humble.
But Song Yunxi was unmoved: "The servants of this Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion dared to slam the door on me, so I can't enter the door of this Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion."
Jiang Yan'an didn't expect her to be so arrogant. When he was about to get angry, he remembered his father's instructions and could only continue to swallow his anger: "It was me who looked down on others and acted on my own. If we knew that the young lady came to visit us, we would only feel honored."
Song Yunxi sneered: "I don't know if the servants of the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion are bullying their masters or relying on the power of others."
Jiang Yan'an understood what was going on. If she wasn't given an explanation today, she would not step into the mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.
After hesitating for a moment, although he was reluctant to leave the loyal butler, he finally had to make the choice of a servant bullying his master and ordered his men to beat the butler to death in the street.
Song Yunxi looked at the butler who was wailing and begging for mercy with cold eyes. Not only was she indifferent, but she also blamed herself for letting him die so easily.
This steward often followed Jiang Yuhai and his son in their quest for evil. He would even take the initiative to look for some outstanding-looking boys and girls in the capital and offer them to manors and brothels.
If Ye Xuanqi had not discovered it in the previous life, no one would have known how many children of ordinary people were suffering inhuman torture.
But no matter Ye Xuanrong, who had inherited the throne, or the Shen family, both let the matter go.
Those officials in the court who regarded the two places as entertainment were not punished. Even Jiang Yuhai and his son, who murdered so many young men and women, were only given a few pretentious reprimands and then left alone.
When Song Yunxi heard the person who came to visit her at the farm talking about this matter, she could clearly feel the anger and murderous intent in his tone.
At that time, she was thinking that if she had not been turned into a disabled person by the Song family because of her family affection, she would definitely kill Jiang Yuhai and his son.
Firstly, it was to eliminate harm to the people, and secondly, it was to vent the anger for the third brother.
The housekeeper had been beaten to a bloody mess when he died. The onlookers didn't dare to look at him any longer, but Song Yunxi remained unmoved and looked at the corpse in front of him with an expressionless face.
"The young lady is so calm in the face of adversity. I really admire her."
Song Yunxi could hear his sarcasm, so she was not polite: "Compared to those innocent people he killed, I think this way of death is too easy for him. What do you think, my lord?"
Facing her cold eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything, Jiang Yan'an felt that all his secrets were exposed in front of these eyes, and everything he did could not be hidden from her.
Avoiding her gaze, he said, "This dog servant bullied his master and committed a crime. He deserves this fate."
Jiang Yanan dodged guiltily, and Song Yunxi said no more.
There is no need to say more at this time to alert the enemy. It can serve as a deterrent so that they dare not do evil things again for the time being. The purpose of this time has been achieved.
Originally, before she had solid evidence, she wanted to wait for a while before taking action against Jiang Yuhai and his son's evil deeds. After all, if she alarmed them, it would be more difficult to find evidence.
But plans are not as fast as changes. Taking this opportunity to make a warning and rescue the victims in advance can also make her feel a little more at ease.
He ordered his men to drag the housekeeper's body away and throw it into a mass grave, and then he asked Song Yunxi again: "Miss, can you come into the mansion and talk?"
This time, Song Yunxi did not refuse and stepped into the door of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion.
Jiang Yuhai could no longer test his words, so he asked directly: "Young lady, when will you close the stall in front of this mansion?"
Wasn't she setting up this stall just to negotiate terms with him?
Song Yunxi smiled calmly: "That depends on when the Marquis stops making things difficult for my second uncle."
This time, the negotiations with the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery went smoothly, but on the way back to the Imperial Master's Mansion, Song Yunxi was not happy at all.
Qing He asked her tentatively, "Miss, are you worried that the Third Young Master will be unhappy?"
Song Yunxi shook her head: "Third brother won't be unhappy, it's just... I'm just afraid that he will be sad."
Having such a father and brother, with the same blood flowing in his body, can only make him sad.
"Third brother, what are you doing?"
As soon as she returned to the Imperial Master's Mansion, Song Yunxi heard Qin Xubai's stern voice.
Then Jiang Yanting replied angrily: "Big Brother, I'll kill that inhumane father and son, and that will be considered as getting rid of harm to the people!"
"Calm down."
Qin Xubai's voice became gentle again: "Since Xiao Si let them go first, then there must be a place where they can be used..."
After a pause, he continued, "I also don't want them to get you into trouble."
Jiang Yanting smiled bitterly: "Back then, I was beaten half to death and thrown out. It was my master who saved me and raised me. I have no relationship with them anymore."
Thinking of what Jiang Yanting had gone through, Qin Xubai felt distressed: "We all know what happened, but the world doesn't know. They will only think that you are disobedient to your parents and disrespectful to your brother. They will think that you, a bastard, want to destroy the legitimate heir and take his place."
"Bah!"
Jiang Yanting was a little annoyed: "Would I care about anything in that dirty mansion?"
