After listening to Shi Qingluoâs profound words, Old Lady Xiao roughly understood what to do.
âYou mean to use Ge Chunruâs crime to threaten Second Son Xiao?â
âNot a threat, but for an exchange,â Shi Qingluo replied.
âShe ordered people to beat up an eighth-ranked county government official, Eldest Grandson Xiao, and her in-laws. This is a fact.
âIf my ex-father-inâlaw doesnât agree, you can say that you want to sue him and make Ge Chunru spend the rest of her life in prison.
âIf he doesnât agree, you can use your identity as her in-laws to get rid of this unfilial Ge Chunru.
âWe can still go to the capital magistrate to sue her if weâre in the capital, but how do we sue her at the northern border?â asked Old Lady Xiao after some thought.
âZhengâer is just a county magistrate, she canât control Second Son Xiao, right?â
Second Son Xiaoâs rank as a deputy governor or something seemed to be quite superior.
It was said that held the highest rank besides King Jin and the governor.
âOf course, my husband canât control Deputy Governor Xiao, â Shi Qingluo replied, âbut arenât there two other people above him? â
The third prince is not the governor of Northern City, so you can go directly to King Jinâs residence to file a complaint.
After all, this is his fief.
Didnât King Jin want to win over Xiao Hanzhengâs scumbag father? She wanted to create an opportunity for him.
Let King Jin fight with Xiao Hanzhengâs scumbag father or work with him to find the treasure first.
Before her young hubby left the capital, the emperor gave him an important task, which was to keep an eye on King Jin and his scumbag father and find the treasure.
His scumbag father had half of the treasure map, and Zhuo Junâs mother had the other half.
They also had the key to the treasure.
They could only find the treasure after the two of them worked together.
An opportunity was present now.
Old Lady Xiao was stunned. âIâll go and find King Jin. Will he care? â
Shi Qingluo laughed.
âOf course, donât look for him alone. You have to find him when heâs on the road. You have to cry your grievances in front of so many people.
âIf King Jin wants to maintain justice in Northern City, he has to seek justice for you.
âAlso, you donât have to worry that your complaint will cause Deputy Governor Xiao to lose his position.
âAfter all, this is not the capital, and King Jin has no right to appoint or dismiss him.
âGe Chunru can be punished. After all, she broke the law.â
Hearing this, Old Lady Xiao agreed.
âAlright, if that b * stard Second Son Xiao is not willing to demote his wife to a concubine, Iâll bring my family to complain to King Jin.â
Her second son, that beast, could not lose his position.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After all, they still had to let Eldest Grandson Xiao inherit the generalâs residence in the capital, which was currently the deputy governorâs residence.
âThatâs right,â Shi Qingluo laughed.
âYou can use the same method you used on them in the capital at the northern border.
âDoesnât matter if this method is old as long as itâs useful.â
Xiao Yuanshi and Ge Chunru both cared about their reputation the most, so they had to hit the bullâs eye.
Old Lady Xiaoâs smile deepened. âYouâre right, Qingluo. Your idea works.
âGe Chunru and the others are now locked up in the prison. How are we going to bring them away?â
The old Xiao family alone was no match for the guards that Ge Chunru had brought.
Shi Qingluo replied, âIâll ask Xi Rui and the others to lend their personal guards to escort your family to Northern City.
âThey will come back after youâve safely arrived at Deputy Governor Xiaoâs residence.â
The more Old Lady Xiao looked at Shi Qingluo, the more she liked her.
âYouâre so thoughtful.â
She started to worry about her grandson again.
âIf we go to Northern City, what about Eldest Grandson Xiao? â
âOf course,â Shi Qingluo laughed, âwe have to bring Eldest Grandson Xiao along. His injuries are the evidence.
âWhen the time comes, Iâll get someone to modify his carriage. The road wonât be so bumpy, and heâll be able to lie down in the carriage.
âLet him recuperate for a few days first.
âLater on, he shall use the medicine my husband prescribed after he returns. The effect will be much better.
âItâs also good to let Ge Chunru and the others suffer more in the prison.â
Seeing Old Lady Xiaoâs hesitation, Shi Qingluo added, âIf I donât bring Eldest Grandson Xiao to see his second uncle, he might not believe me. Moreover, how can we ask for compensation?
âIf Deputy Governor Xiao doesnât agree to your conditions, you can take Eldest Grandson Xiao to King Jinâs office and ask him to seek justice.â
âThereâs life evidence. King Jin has to do something even if he doesnât want to.â
This could be considered as digging a hole for King Jin and causing trouble for his scumbag father.
It would also make his scumbag father angry at Ge Chunru again and damage their feelings between them.
After all, if old Xiaoâs family went to make a scene, his scumbag father would definitely be humiliated at Northern City again, and his precious little wife would be the one who caused this.
Ge Chunru and her scumbag father would make a scene again and send Ge Chunyi to the mine.
His scumbag fatherâs patience for Ge Chunru was probably running out.
Old Lady Xiao nodded with a smile.
âYouâre right. Second Son Xiao wonât believe us. Take Eldest Grandson Xiao with you and let him see how badly his nephew has been beaten.â
At that time, she would have to make that bastard Second Son Xiao compensate Eldest Grandson Xiao no matter what.
âYouâre a smart person, old lady. When the time comes, you can do whatever benefits you.â
She then emphasized, âAs long as you and the old master are Deputy Governor Xiaoâs biological parents and have never broken off your relationship, you can use filial piety as the most effective weapon to protect yourself and attack your enemy.
In ancient times, filial piety was too important.
As long as one wanted a future ahead, they would not dare to have a stain on this.
That was why there were so many instances of unkind parents, but their children did not dare to be unfilial or were forcibly suppressed.
The Xiao familyâs people were very strong, it would be a pity not to use them.
In the past, when Xiao Hanzhengâs scumbag father was in Beijing, they had sent the old Xiao family over as a gift.
Now that Xiao Hanzhengâs scumbag father was in Northern City, they would package the old Xiaoâs family over as the gift again.
She wondered if Xiao Hanzhengâs scumbag father would be âsurprisedâ again.
She was really a filial âgood daughter-in-lawâ.
Old Lady Xiao nodded. âI understand.â
As expected, the old master was wise enough to get her to ask Shi Qingluo.
Otherwise, he really didnât know how to deal with that little b * tch Ge Chunru and that b * stard Second Son Xiao.
She also thought that Second Son Xiaoâs position was so high now, unlike in the capital, where there was no one to control him.
It would be difficult for them to control him.
She didnât expect that he could still be manipulated.
They would not be as foolish as their second son, who would break off relations with his own children for a little b * tch.
He couldnât alter the situation even if he wanted to.
In the beginning, the old master had always opposed the second child to break off relations with his children, but Second Son Xiao did not listen for the sake of that little slut. Now, he deserved retribution.
In this life, the second son would never think of separating from his family, let alone break off the family.
âRest well then,â Shi Qingluo said to the old lady.
âIâll send you to Northern City in the next few days.
Heyang County was not far from Northern City.
It would take about three or four days to get there by horse at full speed. It would not take six or seven days to get there by a horse carriage without any rest points in between. A horse carriage took a longer time and usually took more than ten days.
Because of Ge Chunruâs incident, Xiao Hanzhengâs father would soon find out that they had not only come to the northern border, but her husband had also become the county magistrate of Heyang County.
She wondered if he would be surprised by the consecutive âsurprisesâ.
