Chapter 357 The Good-for-nothing Father and Son Deserve a Bad Ending!

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

No one knew where Emperor’s son-in-law, Qiu Feng, had gone. Jiang Qizheng lived in her parents’ house to finish her miscarriage prevention, delivery, and confinement.

Shortly after she finished her confinement, she decided to move back to Chunfu Princess’s Mansion. She asked Sheng Shishui and Qiu Yelan to persuade Madame Tao. Four days ago, she entrusted her baby to Sheng Shishui while she led maids to Chunfu Princess’s Mansion to clean up.

After all, there had been no one to live in the last several months. She just gave birth to a baby who needed a new room and so they had to clean a few days.

How could they know that they were cheated!

The truth was that she had already made a plan with Ou Qinglan to stay in Chunfu Princess’s Mansion for a night. And then they would bring the luggage they packed previously and go west to Shazhou. One would find her husband and the other would pursue the one she loved.

Luckily, they had asked Ling Zui about the address of Qiu Jinglan before they left. Ling Zui could not stop them. He was concerned about them and so he followed them. Because they were too hasty, he only managed to leave a letter behind their back.

Ling Qu read the letter and so he went to the Jiang Family to tell them for fear that if the girl of the first branch was in danger, they would blame Ling Zui.

“They have just left three days. We may be capable of catching up with them!” Qiu Yelan collected herself after reading the letter. She comforted Madame Tao, “Jiang Qizheng and Xing are women. They must go outside with a carriage! If only Ling Zui rides a horse, they will not press on so quickly. Right now, if we send someone to chase them, we can make it!”

Madame Tao sighed, “You go to ask Jiang Yashuang to make an arrangement.” She then turned to Ling Qu to excuse herself.

Ling Qu was amused by Madame Tao and so Qiu Yelan went outside with Madame’s task. She asked a maid to call Jiang Yashuang, who was on guard, to return home, “The thing is like that. Grandma asked me to make you send someone to catch up with them!”

Jiang Yashuang almost vomited blood after hearing that, “I am not surprised by what Sing has done. But what the h*ll is Jiang Qizheng? Are they kidding? It is not easy to go to such a distant place?”

At that time transportation was inconvenient. No matter how rich a person was, he had to suffer a lot when going to a distant place.

Jiang Qizheng was born in an affluent family. She was so delicate that her family could not feel relieved for what she was suffering in her journey.

Jiang Yashuang was too hurried to change his clothes. He went outside right away, “I will chase them by myself! Others cannot ask them to return home!”

He knew his own sister. Though she was gentle usually, she was also obstinate when she was serious.

But Jiang Yashuang did not make it by himself. He was stopped by Marquess Qin before he went out of the town. Marquess Qin asked Jiang Yadan to chase them.

The reason given by Marquess Qin was that the main task of Jiang Yashuang was to learn government affairs and enrich himself. The stuff like chasing his sister could be finished by someone else. They had no need to cultivate his brother Jiang Yadan anyway and he could be useful at this moment!

And then the whole Jiang Family witnessed how unreliable Jiang Yadan would be. After five days, a bodyguard came back and told them, “The eighth young master thought what princess said was reasonable. So, he decided to accompany her to go west!”

“…”

Madame Tao struggled to send idlers away. She asked him, “How reasonable her words are?”

“Princess said that the little master was born but her husband did not come back. Would he want them to wait for him forever? No matter what would happen, she wanted to put in words with him.” The guard then said awkwardly, “And then the eighth young master agreed with her.”

Madame was so angry that she started to break things, “If he really loves his sister, he should use his brain to ask her to return home! He could go to find Qiu Feng by himself! Why did he agree with Zheng’er? He did not think that she was so delicate! How could she bear such hardships!”

Besides, Qiu Feng was not in the west at all!

The reason why she said he was in the west was that she was afraid of hurting her feelings. And she was also afraid that others would tease her. If she did not go to Shazhou by herself, she could make up the lie as usual. How could she cover up when she went there?

Madame was so exhausted!

Seeing that the guard had something else to tell, she asked without patience, “Anything else?”

“It was because that the eighth young master heard that ladies in Shazhou have a distinctive flavor and so he decided to escort princess.” The guard did not dare to conceal as well as tell the truth. After saying that he kneeled on the ground and did not dare to look up.

Though she already knew the nature of Jiang Yadan, after hearing his words, Madame Tao was so…

She broke all the ceramics around her and then she said gravely with clenched teeth, “I cannot handle it! You go to tell Chaohai!” She thought in her mind, “You gave birth to such a grandson! Jiang Qianchuan, you should discipline by yourself! I quit!”

Marquess Qin was not so anxious as Madame Tao. He said calmly, “Since Jiang Qizheng has decided to go and now she is accompanied by Jiang Yadan, let her go. Kids in the Jiang Family were not too delicate to suffer hardships!”

After hearing that, the guards gave up catching up with them. They silently agreed on their behavior.

However, what was tragical was that when the whole Jiang Family messed up, no one remembered Ou Qinglan. That could not blame on the Jiang Family. It was Ling Qu who came to tell the Jiang Family that they went west, but they forgot to ask whether he had told the Ou Family.

So, after the thing happened half a month, Ou Bicheng hurried to find Jiang Yashuang to take his leave!

Jiang Yashuang asked surprisingly for what happened seriously in Beijiang. He said the one who was sent to pick her sister up did not get her. The person did not get her for a few more days. So, he freaked out to send a pigeon to ask him. He hurried to ask Jiang Yashuang for help to find her sister!

“How dare he! Though Chunfu Princess is noble, isn’t my sister a valued lady?” Hearing Jiang Yashuang’s description about the experience, Ou Bicheng was so angry that he did not have patience to hear any other words. He straightly went to the Ling Family to ask the reason. Princess Royal Maode was puzzled by his coming. Hearing his reason, everyone in her mansion was shocked.

The reason why Ling Qu went to the Jiang Family instead of the Ou Family was that Jiang Qizheng had a formal and acceptable reason to go west, that was to find her own husband. But Ou Qinglan went west was for pursuing the person she loved, which was shameful to tell them. Ling Qu thought that the Jiang Family had a good relationship with the Ou Family and so they would tell them. He did not expect that they were so unreliable!

Though the rank of nobility of Princess Royal and her husband was much higher than the Ou Family who got rich because of being bandits. But right now, the Jiang Family was powerful. Though the Ou Family was an adherent of the Jiang Family, the power they possessed could help them bully Princess Royal. Princess Royal Maode had no choice but to apologize to him, explaining that she never looked down on Ou Qinglan.

Finally, she sent Ou Bicheng away. Princess Royal Maode was so angry. She thumped on the long table and said resentfully, “When he comes back, I will get him a fierce wife to restrain him. If such a thing happened again, I would be angry to die!”

Princess Royal was so mad here. Ou Bicheng just thought that he forgot to ask what his sister’s condition was.

And then he returned to the Jiang Family and asked Jiang Yashuang. After asking him, Ou Bicheng said without expression, “Does anyone else know this thing besides the Jiang Family and the Ou Family?”

“No. Don’t you just know the thing just now?” Jiang Yashuang sighed, “Luckily Jiang Qizheng and Xing got along well with each other. We can say that my sister went to find her husband. She was inconvenient on the road so she asked Xing to accompany her.”

Ou Bicheng sneered,” Come on! We may cover up when they are on the road. When they arrive, will Xing refrain from finding Qiu Jinglan? There were so many people there. How can we hide the message?”

Jiang Yashuang meditated for a while and said, “What do you think?”

“…” Ou Bicheng sneered and then he was distressed, “What do I think? Qiu Jinglan has no sense to Xing. If you force him to marry her, he will not treat her well. I am unable to call her back. What else can I do except for submitting to the will of Heaven?”

And then he thumped on the table, “The father and son in the Kuang Family was good-for-nothing! Why didn’t they cut Qiu Jinglan’s face after being defeated by him? If that happened, how could Xing be obsessed with him? Those two guys deserved to gain such a bad consequence! They could not even do such a small thing!”

He did not know one of the two he just cursed, Kuang Qingwu, was cleaning his long knife in snow carefully. Kuang Qingwu asked Zheng, “Is it true?”

“Certainly!” Zheng said seriously, “Empress Dowager Gu sent secret pawns in the Jiang Family. Many of them were found out in the half of the year. Now the only person was the last one. After he has given away the message he will find a chance to kill himself half the road in case of being found.”

“Is Chunfu Princess to find her husband on her own? When did her husband come to Shazhou? Or did he arrive but we did not get the message?” Kuang Qingwu murmured to himself. And then he said instantly, “No matter what happened, the daughter of Jingbo is definitely in the line. It must be that the fourth branch in the Jiang Family tries to support Qiu Jinglan on purpose. I am afraid that Chunfu Princess coming here to find her husband is just a lie. The true purpose they come here was to marry Ou Qinglan to Qiu Jinglan!”

Zheng hesitated and he said, “But if Miss Ou does not come to Shazhou, the marriage…”

“If she does not appear, the marriage will hardly succeed.” Kuang Qingwu sneered as he paused his hand which is cleaning the knife. And then he said, “The b*tch, Jiang Qianchuan, shows partiality to the first branch. In his sons, the third branch is the first and the eldest, who is nearer the front than the fourth branch! If the fourth branch controls the Northern Army, will Jiang Qianchuan support them? At the beginning of the year, the first branch and the third branch wanted to send two goddaughters to Qiu Jinglan. He excused to refuse them for that he was in the mourning period.”

“Now it is the end of the year. The first branch and the third branch in the Jiang Family will mention Qiu Jinglan’s marriage again. Before that Ren Ziyong came to tell about it in person. The fourth branch is so decisive. They just sent a girl to him. That was the only daughter of Jiang Qianchuan’s former subordinate when he started up! If something happened between her and Qiu Jinglan and the Ou Family asked Qiu Jinglan to take responsibility, Jiang Qianchuan would not refuse when!”

He wiped the knife, held it in his hand, and cut it out against the wind and snow!

“Do they want to achieve their willingness? Go through me firstly!”
