After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure Chapter 207 - Look for her father-in-law
Shi Qingluo did not remove the knife from his skin.
She looked at the man with a dark expression. “You have two choices.”
The man felt that this village woman was even more terrifying now.
He swallowed his saliva and said, “Please continue.”
“Experience having your throat cut by this knife first.”
The man widened his eyes. “No, there’s no need for that. We’ll choose the second option.”
Shi Qingluo raised an eyebrow. “I haven’t said the second one yet.”
“Then please say it.” The man really wanted to cry.
Shi Qingluo said, “Follow to look for the prefectural magistrate in the capital to turn yourself in now.
“Just say that you didn’t have the heart to take action because I looked so weak and kind.
“Then you heard that I ca to the capital to offer the seeds.
“Although you are a local ruffian, you also know these are good seeds, so you feel that the person asking you to take on this mission is very detestable.
“You can’t live with your conscience, so you turned yourself in.”
......
Only by letting these ruffians turn themselves in would the third imperial consort’s actions be more overbearing and repulsive.
Even the hooligans knew the benefits of sharing these seeds to everyone, yet, an imperial consort actually wanted to assassinate them viciously.
Of course, there was also a high chance that her servant girl would beco the scapegoat.
However, Shi Qingluo was confident that that vicious woman would be punished.
Furthermore, these three hooligans were not good people either.
Even if they would not go to jail as they turned themselves in, with the third imperial consort’s personality and her family’s protectiveness towards her, her family would definitely take charge of this matter so that her hands would remain clean.
If anything were to happen to these three ruffians, their family mbers could still cause a ruckus and fight for them.
This man and the others sighed, which part of you are weak and kind?
Wasn’t she teasing them?
Furthermore, do they look like those who cannot do things against their conscience?
When Shi Qingluo saw their doubtful expressions, she asked coldly, “Are you saying that you want to choose the first option?”
The man imdiately replied, “No, the second one. We’ll choose the second option.”
If they voluntarily turned themselves in, this ant that they didn’t hurt others and wouldn’t have to go to jail either.
Only a fool would choose the first option.
Only then did Shi Qingluo put away her knife. “Let’s go, we’ll go together.”
The knife in her hand continued to move nimbly. “If you dare to run, I’ll let you have a taste of being dismbered.”
Seeing this, the man imdiately put away his thoughts of running. “We don’t dare, we don’t!”
Thus, the three of them got up and went to the capital with Shi Qingluo to turn themselves in.
The capital magistrate was a little confused when he heard that so people had co to turn themselves in.
When he heard that it also involved the scholar’s wife who offered the seeds, he had a bad feeling.
He had a headache.
This was definitely not simple.
He knew how much the emperor valued the seeds-offering incident.
Thus, he t them at the first possible mont.
He saw three local ruffians staying far away from a weak woman with reddened eyes.
When the three of them saw his arrival, they imdiately knelt down and told him everything.
The capital magistrate knew that this matter was not simple.
They claid that she was the one who offered the seeds, so they were unable to take action as it would be going against their conscience.
Nonsense.
If these people really had such consciences, they wouldn’t have agreed to do sothing that would ruin a woman’s purity.
However, looking at Shi Qing’s weak and aggrieved appearance with reddened eyes, it didn’t seem like she could threaten them.
The capital magistrate had soone write down the case and let the three n write down their nas.
In the end, he comforted Shi Qingluo. “Mdm Shi, I will have soone check it out. Please leave your address here. If there’s any news, I will send soone to inform them.”
Shi Qingluo nodded. “Alright, then I’ll have to trouble you, magistrate.”
Then, she left behind the address of Mr Hou’s residence.
Seeing this, the capital magistrate’s headache worsened.
He must keep his eyes and ears open as the capital magistrate.
Thus, he knew that Shi Qingluo’s husband was Mr Hou’s beloved disciple.
Recently, Xiao Hanzheng’s colleagues and friends had co to visit him.
As long as nothing unexpected happened to him, his future would be very bright.
Shi Qingluo was not simple either.
She had a good relationship with the few demon kings and a demon queen in the capital.
According to the description of the servant girl that the local ruffians gave, the person behind this was definitely not simple either.
Troubleso, it was truly troubleso!
After Shi Qingluo bade farewell to the capital magistrate, she could not be bothered with the three ruffians who had already secretly disappeared from sight.
She went to Nanshan mansion.
Xi Rong spent most of her ti in the palace and would occasionally return to Nanshan mansion.
Now that Shi Qingluo was in the capital,it would be inconvenient for her to go to the palace to find her if she wanted to play with her.
Hence, Xi Rong had been staying at Nanshan mansion for the past few days.
The housekeeper respectfully welcod Shi Qingluo to the main courtyard.
The young lady in this manor had instructed the housekeeper that if Mdm Shi ca to look for her, she should bring her to et her directly.
At this mont, Xi Rong was playing doudizhu with a servant girl.
When she saw Shi Qingluo, she imdiately threw away her cards and stood up. “Luoluo, why are you here?”
They had agreed to go out and play the next day.
Today, Shi Qingluo suddenly ca looking for her.
She probably had sothing to ask her.
Shi Qingluo nodded. “I’m here to ask for your help.”
Xi Rong looked over and saw that Shi Qingluo’s eyes were a little red.
Her expression imdiately changed. “Did soone bully you?”
Shi Qingluo chuckled. “Rongrong, you’re really smart.”
Xi Rong was instantly enraged. “Which person who doesn’t keep his eyes open and dares to bully you? Don’t they know that you’re under my protection?”
Shi Qingluo walked over to sit across from her and said bluntly, “Third imperial consort.”
Xi Rong was stunned. “Ah, how did you offend her?”
She was a well-known dandy in the capital, but she never took the initiative to bully those who were weaker than her or whose family background was inferior to hers.
Of course, other than not being accustod to n bullying won, she would also punish the bullies.
Although Fu Wenzheng was not a dandy, she was well-known for being willful and overbearing.
Especially after becoming an imperial consort, she did not have any scruples.
She would hit anyone she disliked with her not so good tactics.
However, she did not dare to bully her.
Because of the third prince, Xi Rong never had the opportunity to et him.
She did not expect that after she beca an imperial consort, she beca bolder and even daring enough to disturb her people.
Shi Qingluo was speechless. “Maybe because I ran into the second prince while I was shopping today.
“He took the initiative to talk to and even invited to the teahouse.
“The third imperial consort might see it or know this from soone else.”
She was really wronged to encounter sothing like this.
That was why people said that won were a source of trouble.
She felt that the second prince was also a source of great trouble that sabotaged others.
Of course, the third prince’s consort was not a good person either.
Her viciousness had really broadened her horizons.
Xi Rong knew that the third prince’s consort was fond of the second prince before her marriage.
She even made a fuss when she had to marry the second prince.
However, Xi Rong did not expect that the third imperial consort would vent her anger on Luoluo in such a vicious manner.
If Luoluo did not know martial arts, her purity would be ruined now.
If she was stripped naked and thrown on the street, what would Luoluo do in the future?
Even if Xiao Hanzheng did not stop Luoluo, as a woman, she would have no choice but to commit suicide when faced with such an insult.
Xi Rong’s face was filled with anger. “I’ll go and settle the score with her.”
So what if she was the third imperial consort? She was not afraid.
.
Although it would be a little troubleso after the fight, she would go all out for her friend.
Shi Qingluo saw that Xi Rong did not hesitate at all and was about to help her settle the score with that imperial consort.
It seed like she still wanted to fight, and her heart ward up.
She grabbed Xi Rong and said, “It’s aningless to hit her, and I have to make you suffer as well. It is not worth it at all.”
Even if Xi Rong was doted on by the emperor and empress dowager, she would still be in trouble if she went to hit the imperial consort.
If the emperor did not punish her, she might even be reprimanded by a yushi.
Xi Rong knew that Shi Qingluo had a lot of ideas. “Then what should we do? We have to vent our anger.”
Shi Qingluo nodded and humphed. “Of course. She’s very petty, but I’m not that petty.”
She added, “Do a favour, I want to see the emperor.”
Isn’t the imperial consort bullying others because of her superior status? Then let’s look for her father-in-law.
