”Send some people to protect A Jin and prevent any mishap from happening. Do not mention this matter to anyone in advance, not even the Marquis. ”

”Yes, this servant understands.”

Although Xu Yue agreed, he was still a little confused. He asked, ”Since it's definitely the youngest prince, why didn't Madame secretly take him away from Wei'er?”

Jiang Si shook his head, not agreeing with Xu Yue's idea at all.

”Have you forgotten how much trouble there was after that little girl left? Su Qiao1 was inextricably linked to the general's manor, so she could not act rashly. If the people from the Zhao Family found out, what would they do? ”Besides, this girl brought along my nephew to save lives and nurture the family. My Jiang family isn't so cruel and unscrupulous.”

Xu Yue then understood Jiang Si's intention, thinking that it was indeed not appropriate to confess to his identity to his child now, it was better to be careful around him. With the current strength of the Jiang Clan, apart from secretly calculating, on the surface, they wouldn't be able to beat the Zhao Clan.

”Come on, let's go back first. I don't want the dark guard squad to follow me. Let's go to Spring Leaf Lane.”

After giving her instructions, the woman left in a hurry, as if the conversation in the alleyway never existed.

It was snowing in winter and the sky was overcast. There was not a single hint of sunlight, especially in the evening.

Since she closed up early today, Su Zhi also returned early.

The horse carriage had just arrived at Spring Leaf Alley when they heard the whispers of people outside.

She opened the curtain and saw a few yamen constables interrogating a few neighbors, including Aunt Bai and Aunt Gu.

Su Zhi was keenly aware of something unusual. She quickly stopped the coachman, dismounted from her horse, and came to investigate.

”Aunt Bai, Sister Gu, what's going on? Why are there people from the yamen? ”

When Aunt Bai saw that she had come back, she quickly stepped forward and held her hand. She leaned close to her ear and whispered mysteriously, ”It's He Qi Niang, that worry-free Bane!”

He Qiniang? Upon mentioning this name, Su Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately knew that the matter was not simple.

”What happened to her?”

”Little Su still doesn't know, right? That damned jinx killed his wife!”

Upon hearing this, Su Zhi was startled. A chill ran up her head from the bottom of her feet. She was completely dumbfounded.

She remembered last night when she had come back and had heard the fierce argument that had come from Aunt Ying's house. She had not expected things to turn out this way.

”This, why is that?”

Gu Sister-in-Law stomped her feet and said indignantly: ”Why would I do that? That woman who doesn't want to steal a man is known by her mother!” What was even more infuriating was that she was born with an evil seed! Tell me, the chastity memorial archway on the street is still there. She really became a b * tch. He set up the memorial archway again. ”Pfft, shameless scum!”

As expected, something unexpected had happened.

From the very beginning, Su Zhi had felt that this was not the best time to live. She had not expected it to happen so soon, and even more so, did not expect He Qi Niang to be so ruthless as to kill her mother-in-law.

”Then... ”How did everyone know about this matter?”

Aunt Bai sighed, blaming Su Zhi for being a fool. ”You're really a simple-minded child. This matter was known by the neighbors since yesterday. It was because Aunt Ying had heard the news and confronted her that they were so quarrelsome. Originally, everyone had secretly poked her in the back. Who would have thought that she would kill people? This morning, the door to Aunt Ying's house was not opened. It was the dog from Old Yellow who went out to look for food. It only discovered Old Yellow after smelling the stench of blood and sneaking into the house. ”

Su Zhi's heart shook, and an extremely bad feeling rushed to her.

Wasn't she the only one who knew that He Qiniang was pregnant? This matter was like a storm, and it even involved the murder case.

If her explanation wasn't clear, He Seventh Madame would think that it was her who spread the news. Wouldn't she hate her?
