Chapter 354: Confession of Steward Qian
"Yo, Brother Rui Wang, what kind of wind blew you here, it's really brilliant." King Qi laughed.
"Didn't you say that you had something to talk to the king, so please come and talk about it?" King Rui said angrily. Hmph, if it weren't for someone who came under the banner of Ling Ruoyi, he wouldn't have come.
"King Rui, rest your anger." Ling Ruohui smiled and took a cup of tea and sent it to King Rui.
When King Rui saw Ling Ruoxi, his anger naturally disappeared by half, "Thank you, I don't know what happened to Yi'er looking for me?" ”
"Have you heard that three days ago, a villain who raped and killed a girl was beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market?"
"Has this king heard of it? But what does this matter have to do with this king? King Rui wondered. He is a dignified prince, he can have as many women as he wants, and he still needs to rape and kill girls? It's ridiculous.
"It's not about King Rui, it's about King Rui's Mansion."
"What? What does it have to do with Rui Wangfu? ”
"Because it's all done by the money steward." Ling Ruoyi said lightly.
"What? Money steward did it? This is impossible, he is already in his forties, and he also has a family, how could he do such a thing. King Rui said disdainfully. Steward Qian has been by his side for many years, and he still knows very well what kind of person he is, and he already has a family, and all his thoughts have been helping him manage the Rui Wangfu over the years, if he says that he will do things that hinder the reputation of the Rui Wangfu, he will never believe it.
"Is the prince so confident? There is a way to know people and faces, people are selfish, no matter how loyal Steward Qian is to Rui Wangfu, when he encounters a big conflict of interest with himself, he will also take care of his own first. ”
"Hmph, this king will not listen to you to sow discord, if there is nothing else, this king will go back to the house first." After speaking, the wise king will step away,
"Wait, is the prince just leaving? Would you like to sit down and try my lotus seed soup and listen to my story? Ling Ruoyi said softly.
Hearing this, King Rui agreed without even thinking about it, not to mention drinking lotus seed soup and listening to stories, even drinking poison. "Okay, let's hear about it." After finishing speaking, King Rui found a place close to Ling Ruoyi and sat down, and Mu'er and Mengchun also quickly went to the kitchen with great insight and brought four bowls of lotus seed soup over.
King Rui picked up the lotus seed soup, scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth, "Yi'er's craftsmanship is good, if you give me such a good food every day, I will definitely grow a few catties of meat, look at you, the meat is not long at all, it is really a waste of food." King Rui glanced at King Qi and said.
"It's delicious, you can't eat too much, and you're not feeding pigs, you can buy a good price when you're fattened." King Qi said with a smile.
Hearing this, Mengchun and the others snorted and laughed, what the prince said was really level, scolding people, and not letting the other party have a seizure, how uncomfortable it must be in my heart.
Tianyu won't hide it, he was angry in Rui Wang's Mansion, and now that someone is helping him get it back, he naturally wants to laugh and laugh unbridledly.
"Have you laughed enough?" King Rui looked at Tianyu Dao angrily. Suddenly, Tianyu suppressed his laughter, King Rui is really not easy to mess with, if he hadn't used Ling Ruoxuan as a shield, then his life would probably be gone.
"Lord Wang, is this porridge delicious?" Ling Ruoyi asked with a smile.
"It's delicious."
"Miss Xiaoyu liked to drink lotus seed soup the most when she was alive, and every time she came to the house to deliver fabric, I would invite her to drink a bowl." Ling Ruoyi said lightly.
"Xiaoyu? Who is Xiaoyu? King Rui wondered. There has never been a person named Xiaoyu who is serving by Ling Ruoxi's side.
"Xiaoyu is the name of the daughter of the owner of the cloth village, seven days ago, she sent cloth to the Rui Wang's mansion, and was later raped and killed by a man named Qian Guangyao."
"Qian Guangyao? This king doesn't know what kind of money is this. ”
"He is nominally the nephew of the money housekeeper, but in fact the son of the money housekeeper's outer room." Ling Ruoyi said lightly.
"The son born to the outer chamber of the housekeeper of the money? Are you saying that the little jade girl was raped and killed by the son of the money housekeeper? King Rui couldn't believe it.
How could the money steward do this, he has an illegitimate child, how can he not know it. It seems that there are some things that he is hiding from himself.
"That's right, he has confessed his sins, and he is in my house, if you don't believe it, you can ask him yourself." Ling Ruoyi said lightly.
After a while, the remnant wind walked up with the money housekeeper, and King Rui saw that it was really the money housekeeper, and when the money housekeeper saw King Rui, he knelt on the ground, "Lord Wang, you want to save your subordinates, King Qi and the princess want to frame your subordinates." ”
Hearing this, Mengchun and the others were very angry, they had obviously confessed all of them just now, but now that they saw their master, they retorted again, which was really hateful.
"Okay, you go back with this king, with this king here, no one can do anything to you." After finishing speaking, Rui Wang picked up the money steward with one hand and was about to leave.
"Yun Yurui, do you really want to ignore the law of the country?" Ling Ruoyi said hurriedly.
"What kind of conclusive evidence do you have, everything is just your speculation, trying to trick this king into believing your words? Is Ben Wang a three-year-old child? After speaking, King Rui walked away without looking back.
Ling Ruoxuan looked at the back of King Rui leaving, and sighed deeply: "I hope you still have a little humanity, otherwise I will be even more disappointed in you." ”
King Rui heard Ling Ruoyi's words, and after stopping slightly, he still left King Qi's mansion without looking back. Back to King Rui's mansion, King Rui took the housekeeper to the study, and as soon as he entered the study, he saw the housekeeper kneeling down and said: "Lord, everything is the fault of his subordinates, and please forgive him." ”
"Steward Qian, Fang Cai'er said that the person who killed the daughter of the boss of the cloth village is your son? What the hell is going on? "King Rui's question, obviously believed Ling Ruoyi's words, otherwise he would not have asked himself such a question, it is better to explain honestly, paper can't contain fire, and one day the prince will know the truth.
Thinking of this, Steward Qian took a deep breath, closed his eyes tightly, and replied painfully, "Yes, Lord Wang." Guangyao is the son of a subordinate and an outside woman, you know, the subordinate's wife only gave birth to three daughters to his subordinates, I don't want to, my subordinates neglected to discipline this only son, so that he committed a heinous crime. ”
"Why don't you tell me, if you do, I'll find a way to save his life." Rui Wang turned his back to the money steward and said.
"Lord Wang, Guangyao is an illegitimate child, and his subordinates can't affect the prince because of his mistakes, the reputation of the prince. In fact, the subordinates had already caught a scholar for the glory of the top bag, but the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, but it was the nephew of the housekeeper of the Qi Palace, and he was rescued by Princess Qi, and the subordinates were not convinced. ”
"Steward Qian, since the king was young, you were teaching the king to practice martial arts, and later, after the king opened the government and built the mansion, you helped the king take care of everything in the family, and the king has long regarded you as a relative, a relative like my father."
Hearing this, Steward Qian was stunned, King Rui respected his father like he was at the beginning, but he did so many things that were sorry for the prince, he really damned it.
"Lord Wang, there is another thing that my subordinates have deceived you."
"You mean the time when Hu Xian'er and Xiao Qianqian fought in the front yard before?" Rui Wang said lightly.
"It turns out that the prince knows that it happened that Guangyao made a mistake at that time, and his subordinates begged Hu Shangshu, but Hu Shangshu didn't pay attention to his subordinates' affairs at all, and in the end, his subordinates could only go to Concubine Xiao's father."
"This king has long known that you are lying, but the only thing this king doesn't know is the reason why you favor Xiao Qianqian, perhaps...... Forget it, let's not talk about it. King Rui said lightly.
"Lord Wang, your subordinates won't embarrass you, and your subordinates will give an explanation to King Qi's mansion." After finishing speaking, Steward Qian pulled out the dagger hidden in his sleeve and stabbed it into his heart, the blood flowed like an infusion, although King Rui tried his best to seal the acupoint, but the blood still couldn't stop, King Rui kept Steward Qian's body, "Steward Qian, Steward Qian, don't die, please don't die, if you leave, then I don't have a person to trust." ”
"Lord Wang, my subordinates have already done something sorry for you, if there is an afterlife, my subordinates are willing to continue to serve the prince." After finishing speaking, Steward Qian died of anger.
King Rui is a good master, after burying the housekeeper Qian, he also set up a garden for his widow to live, and on the eighth day after the housekeeper committed suicide, King Rui visited again.
"Lord Rui? What are you doing here? Ling Ruoyi wondered.
"Steward Qian committed suicide, now you are satisfied." After finishing speaking, he also threw the bloody dagger at Ling Ruoyi's feet. Ling Ruoxuan was not frightened, and glanced at the dagger on the ground lightly, "What do you mean, Lord Wang?" ”
"What do you mean, Qian Guangyao has been beheaded, and it can be regarded as giving an explanation to the boss of the cloth village, why do you still have to force Steward Qian to take his life." King Rui roared.
"Concubine Ben thought that His Royal Highness King Rui would not use his power for personal gain, but it turned out that it was nothing more than that." Ling Ruoxuan sneered.
"What do you mean by that?" Rui Wang said coldly.
"You are the King of Rui, and the safety of the capital is all your responsibility, don't you know that on the night after Qian Guangyao was beheaded, Buzhuang was engulfed in a fire, and the owner of Buzhuang's family of five were all buried in the fire."
"So what?"
"This matter is all done by the money housekeeper. Could it be that in the mind of King Rui, the perpetrator of the crime will be punished, and the family of the victim will also be buried with him? ”
"Steward Qian did this out of anger, he experienced the pain of losing a child, you have to be considerate of him."
"Hmph, considerate of him? So is this fair to the owner of the cloth village who lost his daughter? Is it fair to the little jade girl who has lost her virginity and life? The life of the housekeeper of your Rui Wangfu is life, so the life of the common people is not life? ”
King Rui was dumbfounded for a while, yes, Qian Guangyao deserved it, Steward Qian really shouldn't burn down the cloth village, shouldn't arrest people and top the bag, all this is to blame on that bastard Qian Guangyao, if it weren't for him, the boss of the cloth village would be fine, and the money steward would not lose his life for him.
"You're right, everything is Qian Guangyao's deserved, Steward Qian shouldn't do those things, but it's too late, now that Steward Qian has committed suicide, I hope this matter can end here." Rui Wang said lightly. After finishing speaking, he walked out of the Rui Wang's Mansion.
Ling Ruoxuan looked at the back of King Rui in the distance, and there was an indescribable feeling in her heart, "Mengchun, am I doing too much?" ”
"Princess, this is all the money housekeeper's own finding, no wonder you." Mengchun said softly.
"I hope he can figure it out." After finishing speaking, Ling Ruoyi also returned to the room.
After King Rui returned to the mansion, Xuanwu sent Xiao Tianlu, everything is to blame on this bastard, causing him to lose a right-hand man, if he is to teach this bastard a lesson, then the people around him must not be folded into it by this bastard......
