Chapter 119: The Battle of the Marquisate
Chapter 119: The Battle of the Marquisate
"Puff!!" The female assassin looked at the hairpin, blood spurted out of her mouth, and then she lay down unwillingly.
Wen Chun had already come to Qian Qiansui's side, hugged her and was about to look at her back, but she was hugged by her backhand. As a result, Wen Chun could not move at all, and could only lean on Qian Qiansui like a "little bird". This feeling was particularly familiar to him.
"Why... why can't you die like this..." The concubine stood outside the crowd, her eyes red and swollen, staring at Qian Qiansui.
"Maybe it's the blessing of our ancestors." Qian Qiansui shrugged. With her passive skill, it would be difficult for her to perform a self-torture trick, as she couldn't even hurt herself.
Probably thinking of the hundreds of people in the Qian family, the concubine no longer dared to look Qian Qiansui in the eye. She pulled Aunt Mei and was about to walk out.
"Where is the Queen Dowager going?" Qian Qiansui waved his hand, and the maids who came with the dowry from the Qian family were already ready.
The Concubine Dowager and Nanny Mei were truly frightened at this point. The maids and servants in the Concubine Dowager's yard stood in front of the two of them and were in a stalemate with the maids from the Qian family.
"The Queen Mother is heartbroken because of the unexpected incident involving the Marquis. She is not feeling well and needs to rest..." Qian Qiansui hugged Wen Chun and punched the small rockery next to them.
The small rockery turned into rubble in an instant and scattered all over the ground.
"If anyone interferes with the Dowager Concubine's recuperation, don't blame me for being rude."
Some of the maids and servants in front of the concubine were frightened, and the maids of the Qian family took this opportunity to rush forward, pulling their hair and slapping them. Qian Qiansui felt excited just watching this.
"Oh my, my face is scratched..."
"Ouch, oh, oh, that slap looks painful."
"I didn't expect that the girls in our yard, who look thin, are so strong."
Wen Chun couldn't break free, so he could only follow this woman and watch the fun. He saw that the Marquis' Mansion was in chaos, and he knew that Qian Qiansui was determined to take over the Marquis' Mansion today.
"Qian! You are being disobedient and unfilial. My son will not let you go, will not let you go..."
The people around the concubine were pulled away, and when she saw that the guards who wanted to move forward were captured by the guards brought by Qian Qiansui, she could only cry out in despair.
"Even if I didn't disobey him, he never thought of letting me go."
They have been enemies from the beginning, so how can they possibly imagine living in harmony one day?
He wanted her Qian family, and she wanted his Hou Mansion.
He is a scumbag, and Qian Qiansui doesn't consider himself a good person either.
She is not a good person anymore, so what moral standards are needed? As long as she has no morals, others cannot use morality to hold her hostage!
"Let me go, I'm going to complain to the royal family, I'm going to complain to the palace..." The Concubine Dowager hid behind Aunt Mei, crying bitterly, which was heartbreaking.
"Come on, if you go and complain, they'll just send you back to the confinement area."
Everyone knows who knows who. This woman has caused so much trouble for the empress. Apart from the empress herself, Qian Qiansui is probably the only one in the world who knows it in such detail.
The empress was just waiting for Fu Zichan to die so that she could take revenge on this woman.
The concubine was suddenly as if she had been poisoned and silenced, and could only cry.
"Madam, there is a young man outside named Yuan Chengzhi. He said that he is a good friend of the Marquis and wants to come to visit the Concubine Dowager." The doorman has been replaced by Qian Qiansui's own people, and the door has been blocked by Qian Qiansui's men.
"No!" Qian Qiansui looked at the concubine's ecstatic face, which slowly became disappointed, painful and heartbroken.
It really makes people feel happy.
"But he and his men are making a lot of noise at the door." The doorman was also very worried. The commotion at the Marquis' Mansion was too big today, and he was afraid that it would attract government officials.
"Let him make a fuss. If he has the guts, he can just break down the door and rush in."
Qian Qiansui felt that he was not a fool. In his previous life, he had watched TV dramas where there was nothing wrong, but when someone came to cause trouble, he had to open the door and fight them head-on, which ended up in a mess. Why bother?
"This……"
"Go to the door and tell him that there has been a recent death in the Marquis' Mansion and it is not convenient to receive him. You can invite him in later when the condolences are paid."
It's reasonable and logical. If he continues to make trouble, it will be Yuan Chengzhi's fault.
Yuan Chengzhi stood at the door with his men and almost wanted to break in several times, but he was concerned about his embarrassing identity and the strange woman inside, so he finally left with his men.
"Young... Young Master... The door to the Marquis' Mansion is closed. We can't force our way in."
Ever since learning of the Marquis's death, Fu Zichan asked everyone to call him Young Master, even Yuan Chengzhi was no exception. He went from being furious and irritable at first to calmly accepting it later, and it didn't take long, but it felt like a heartache.
But there is no time. If he doesn't cheer up, everything he has may be taken away by that Qian girl. The Empress and the Grand Princess will not be willing to give up the fat piece of meat of the Marquis' Mansion.
He must find a way to return to the Marquis' Mansion as soon as possible, and he needs his mother's help.
"Tell the King of Hengzhou to take action tonight. If he really wants that woman, he must show his sincerity."
Fu Zichan hated Qian Qiansui so much that if it weren't for this bitch, he would still be a man, a marquis. How could he be so timid and act so cowardly while dragging this disgusting body around?
"Actually..." Yuan Chengzhi couldn't help but pour out the bad water that had been hidden in his heart for a long time when he saw the people around Fu Zichan leave. "It won't be difficult for us to regain the Marquis' Mansion."
"You say." Most of the staff around Fu Zichan were won over by Yan Sui, and he was planning to clean them up these days.
The rest of those who remained loyal to him were also sent out to do more important things, and the only person he could use was Yuan Chengzhi.
"Young Master, why don't you pretend to be the Marquis's concubine..."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Fu Zichan's manly heart was severely insulted. He slammed the table and almost killed Yuan Chengzhi.
"Oh, young master, listen to me, it's just a pretense. No one knows whether the Marquis has a mistress outside, but as long as the young master says yes, we, the staff, can testify.
Then the young master can be the Marquis's concubine. When the time comes, we can just announce that the concubine has a child, and then we can find another child from outside to make up for it..."
Yuan Chengzhi glanced at Fu Zichan's expression and felt happy. He knew that Fu Zichan had heard it.
"The Marquisate has lost its master. Whether it's the Empress's harassment or the royal family's coveting of the Marquisate's assets, isn't it all because the Marquisate has no heir? Once we show up, and then seek the Empress Dowager's cooperation, the Marquisate will be established..."
Fu Zichan fell into deep thought. Although Yuan Chengzhi's idea was outrageous, it was not without reason. Once the Prince of Hengzhou got rid of Qian, the Marquis's Mansion would be able to return to its former peace.
If he pretended to marry a concubine and then got a child as a puppet, he could control the mansion again, which was no different from the empress's previous rule from behind the curtain.
With this child, he had a gamble, and it was indeed worth a try.
