Chapter 378 - Who Murdered the Kids of the Jiang Family?



“My sixth sister-in-law, I have a thing to ask you, which concerns the future of our branch. Please tell me the truth!” He Shuijin was always diplomatic with a ready smile. At this moment she was serious without an expression. What she asked made Madame Shi get nervous. “What happened? Please tell me.”

Though at this moment there were only the two in the room, He Shuijin asked in a low voice, “Princess of Wei is slandered. Who did it? Do you have any idea?”

Madame Shi glazed over and then she became unhappy, “She is the cousin of Qiu Yelan. Does it have anything to do with me? She is in trouble, but why do you ask me?”

Originally, Madame Shi was jealous that He Shuijin bypassed her to take over the business of the family. Hearing what she said, she got a little angry. The words she said were unpleasant. “I know you are close to the fourth branch. But you belong to the third branch. Now even Qiu Yelan doesn’t come here. Are you hurried to question me for her?”

He Shuijin frowned, “What are you thinking of? If I don’t consider our branch, I won’t come here to talk with you as I have so many things to deal with. There are no others. I ask you directly. Princess of Wei gets in trouble. Is there anyone else to be suspicious except you?”

“What are you talking about?” Madame Shi just now was unhappy, but at this moment she was really angry, “There are so many people who want to have a marriage with the imperial household. Why is only my sister excluded? Why are you asking me?” Her face darkened, “Oh! I get it. Is it because of what my husband has done?”

“The first reason is because of my sixth brother.” He Shuijin said peacefully, “The second reason is that the guys who dare to offend people in the Jiang Family are only people in the Jiang Family.”

Madame Shi changed her face. After all, she had been the oldest legal daughter-in-law of the third branch for so many years. She was not a fool. She understood what He Shuijin said. She softened her tone a little, “My parents’ family and I have nothing to do with it!”

Seeing that He Shuijin seemed not to trust her, she explained, “We are not foolish. I heard that Jiang Yashuang even wanted to kill the first branch and us because of Jiang Qizheng. And I heard that the gifts you gave them last time were all rejected. At this juncture, to slander those who are connected with him, is this ready to give him a chance to vent his anger?”

And then she added, “Qiu Yelan is also pregnant. Given the talents of her brother and her husband, if she is carrying a boy, grandfather will take the baby as a treasure. Though I hate Madame Wang, I am not an idiot. Why do I provoke her now?”

He Shuijin frowned, “The plan to slander Princess of Wei is so clumsy. Not to mention Jiang Yashuang, no matter who is asked about the thing, he will know this thing is groundless.”

Madame Shi breathed a sigh of relief, “So we have nothing to do with it. I don’t want to brag. If I had to humiliate Madame Wang, it would be easy for me to ruin her reputation just like raising my hand as she just depends on the Lian Family, which is in such a low position. Why would I leave so many flaws?”

“It may be on purpose so that it is easy to be clear of a charge.” He Shuijin looked at her, “I don’t want to cover up, my sixth sister-in-law. Qiu Yelan was unpleasant with you because of the matter about Princess of Wei before and that you resented as you failed to intercede with her.”

“It is not us!” Madame Shi gritted her teeth. But she had to explain because of the situation, “I have to say honestly. Though my parents hope to have a princess in our family, they value more on Jiang Yadan’s remarriage. They haven’t settled down his second wife yet. Though I resent her, I won’t do anything. Otherwise, I will become the stumbling block of his marriage with my sister.”

He Shuijin said calmly, “Do you forget what happened to Jiang Qizheng? Do you still expect that Jiang Yadan will marry your sister? I want to say something which may offend you. If he married her, I’m afraid she would have a worse end than Madame Tao Junior, the one who died.”

The most valuable morality Jiang Yadan had was that he treated his brothers and sisters in his branch well.

Especially, Jiang Qizheng and Jiang Yashuang were also born by his mother. Jiang Qizheng was in trouble. If the daughter of the Shi Family could marry him, He Shuijin would not be surprised if the bride was beaten to death on the day of their marriage.

Madame Shi scowled, “Are you interrogating me for the fourth branch?”

“I am telling you to prepare early!” He Shuijin took over the business of the family by bypassing the two sisters-in-law’s power and so she was envied and excluded. She was tolerant of them. But after she lost her kids, a load was on her mind and so she was tired of being thoughtful. She respected them in front of them while behind their backs she was insipid. And she would not stand on ceremony if she had to be strict.

At this moment, she said unceremoniously, “You know the consequence to the third branch if you involve yourself in. You should be aware that the fourth branch won’t give up the chance to get us in trouble!”

She sneered to remind her, “No matter who did it, the fourth branch must think we have something with it!”

Madame Shi flushed and she still wanted to argue. He Shuijin raised her voice, “Guys in Kui County sent messages, saying that grandaunt had a heavy sick and so the first branch asked my oldest brother and Xu’er to go there to take care of her. No matter whether she is ill or not, think about how old our granduncle is.”

Madame Shi was shocked. He Shuijin was right. Kui Xiannan was so old that his first grandson was old enough to get married. Though Kui Xiannan was in good health, he was fated to die because of age. Once he died, the guys in the first branch had to observe mourning for him. How could they compete with the fourth branch?

From the perspective of the fourth branch, if the first branch and the third branch became their enemies, the first one they would handle must be the third branch.

“But I really have nothing to do with it!” Madame Shi became anxious. She had been in the Jiang Family for so many years. She was clear that if the fourth branch claimed insistently that she did it, how Marquess Qin would deal with it. The Dou Family was a lesson. Especially her son, Jiang Jingzhui, killed himself last year and so she couldn’t even protect herself by using her son.

“It must be the first branch!” Madame Shi added, “It must be the first branch who wants to frame us. Otherwise, who will use such a clumsy way to slander Princess of Wei?”

That was where He Shuijin was confused, but the most important thing for her at this moment was to make sure that the third branch was not involved in it. As for who did it… Wait till they stay out of it!

“If the fourth branch gets you involved, please remember some points…”

When He Shuijin was telling Madame Shi, Qiu Yelan finished hearing the description of the interrogation from her husband. She felt it was incredible, “They were here for brotherhood? They were here to vent anger for their friend? Are they kidding? Qiu Feng was not so foolish!”

Jiang Yashuang said calmly, “Qiu Feng is just innocent. But he is not foolish. These guys are idiots. I think their masters must be angry now.”

When Lian Jianhai came to tell the thing, he told them that they were a group of rogues. So did Governor’s office respond to him.

But when Jiang Yashuang went there to interrogate, they said that they were from some famous schools! They went to the Lian Family to ruin Wang Qingqian’s reputation, while they thought they were righteous. Because the one who instigated them to do so said that Wang Qingqian not only was a prostitute but also cheated him out of all his wealth and sent someone to murder him… So, he hoped they can help him to revenge. Besides, he also hoped they could disclose Wang Qingqian’s real identity.

And then these little rookies who were just released by their master to travel around were tricked into Jing City.

Qiu Yelan frowned, “Have you found out who tricked them?”

“Yes, but he died.” Jiang Yashuang said calmly, “The reason why those rookies knew him was that by the time when he was about to die, he did them a favor to handle a big problem. Maybe the problem was made by him. And then before he died, he asked them to help him. So, they promised him on impulse.”

“These guys… They came to Jing City and did it without inquiring about the background of the Lian Family. How stupid they are!” Qiu Yelan was speechless. Even an idiot would not be like them.

Jiang Yashuang sneered, “The man behind them was so sophisticated. According to those rookies, they didn’t have to come to Jing City. They even didn’t find a hotel before making trouble. They heard that our cousin was good at seducing. They were afraid that the Lian Family wouldn’t believe them but only help our cousin. So, they decided to make it worse so as to ask all people to figure out her true identity. They thought they were shrewd!”

“Where did he die? Can we continue the interrogation?” Qiu Yelan frowned, “I think it is intractable.”

“Except for those rookies who were tricked into Jing City, there are only two possibilities for those who dare to slander my cousin. One is the rest party of Madame Gu, while the other is guys in the Jiang Family.” Jiang Yashuang put his hand behind his back. After pacing the room a few steps, he paused. “If it is the first possibility, I have nothing to say! If it is the latter one…”

He frowned, “I am wondering whether it will be a surprise or a trouble.”

Qiu Yelan was confused, “If it were our family members who ruined my cousin’s reputation, why would it be a surprise.”

“I’m not sure. I just guess so.” Jiang Yashuang smiled. He did not move on and then changed the subject, “Our granduncle has traveled day and night with a light pack. Counting the days, he may have arrived at Shazhou. I am not sure what he will find out.”

He was not interested in the result. According to the intention of Marquess Qin, he must try to disassociate the first branch and the third branch from this issue. After all, Sir Jibei never disobeyed Marquess Qin’s order.

“But it doesn’t matter.” Jiang Yashuang thought calmly, “If the eldership weren’t fair, I would find the justice for her by myself!”

He had no idea that at this moment in Shazhou, Sir Jibei asked them hysterically, “Who did it? Who? Who dared to murder kids in the Jiang Family? I will kill him!”
