Chapter 371

Mei canruo looked up at Xie Yun and said, “I did write that letter, but I don’t admit that I murdered General Luo, Lord Qiao, and their daughter. I never wanted to murder them!

“As for the letter, I was also entrusted by Zhou Shihui. Zhou Shihui said that if she died and asked me to write this letter and send it to Chang ‘an in broad daylight, how could you accuse me so casually?”

Qiao ruoyi said in a cold voice, “Now that Jiang Yu and Zhou Shihui have both died, it’s naturally up to you to say what you want.”

Qiao jinniang slowly said, “Mei canruo, even if the matter of Luo Wei has nothing to do with you, how should I say about the relationship between me and my classmates and friends that you instigated behind my back?”

Mei canruo said in a low voice, “I was young back then. If the Empress wanted to use the past ten years to convict me, I would be willing to be punished. However, the Empress is now a high and mighty person, and she wants to argue about the trivial matter of ten years ago with me...”

Qiao Jinniang was angered and laughed, “Back then, you dared to say these things behind my back. Why should I be magnanimous and not argue with you? The crimes committed by the lowly people of the Shengdou can be avoided because of their lowly status? What kind of logic is this?”

Mei canruo said, “The Empress is not afraid of being laughed at by the world, as long as she wants to argue with a lowly commoner like me.”

Qiao Ruoyi was extremely angry and said, “In the letter you wrote to the Luo family, you said that in order to marry into the Xie family, I used my son to plot against my husband. You have already falsely accused a second rank official, and should be punished according to the law!”

Mei Canruo asked Qiao ruoyi sarcastically, “Didn’t you? isn’t Luo Wei’s death just what you wanted? After Luo Wei died, Xie Yun rushed in and out to help you. Do you dare to say that you don’t want to marry into the Xie Family?”

Qiao ruoyi said coldly, “No, I never thought of marrying into the Xie family. My Daughter is only the daughter of me and Luo Wei. It has nothing to do with Xie Yun!”

Mei canruo looked at Xie Yun and said, “Xie Yun, I have waited for you for ten years. Back then, there were two concubines. I was willing to follow you without a name. But you said that the Xie family is not in your hands and that you will not take a concubine before you get your revenge.

“I have waited for you for five years. For five years, you became the head of the Xie family. I waited for you. You said that you would not take a concubine unless you had a wife. But not long after, you had a child with Qiao ruoyi. Why Can’t I?”

“Qiao ruoyi, you don’t have to say it so nicely. You said that you’ve never thought of becoming the Xie family’s head’s wife. Do you dare to swear that you’ll never marry into the Xie Family?”

Qiao ruoyi was about to swear when she was interrupted by Xie Yun. She frowned and said, “Mei canruo, you kept saying that you’d wait for me for ten years, but I’ve never let you wait. I also said that if you’re willing, the Xie family will give you a generous dowry to marry off!”

Mei canruo said, “How can a scholar marry off a concubine? My Mei family is a thousand-year-old aristocratic family. I have the bloodline of a woman from an aristocratic family. How can I marry an ordinary person? I would rather be a concubine of an aristocratic family than a concubine of a concubine. Qiao ruoyi, why don’t you dare to swear?”

Qiao ruoyi said, “Why wouldn’t I Dare?”

Xie Yun only said to Mei canruo, “What right do you have to make fifth Miss Qiao swear?”

Qiao Jinniang walked up to Mei canruo and said, “I understand. You’ve been forcing Qiao ruoi to swear because you’re afraid that Xie Yun will marry the Qiao family’s daughter? Afraid that the aristocratic family’s last hope will be to “Collude with the Qiao family”and work for the Humble Class?”

Mei Canruo’s eyes widened!

Qiao Jinniang especially remembered that Mei Canruo was most proud of the fact that she had the blood of the aristocratic family flowing in her veins.

Mei canruo might not have any deep feelings for Xie Yun. Her saying that she would rather be a concubine of an aristocratic family than a lowly wife spoke of the feelings in her heart.

Qiao Jinniang looked coldly at Mei canruo who was kneeling on the ground and said, “Since you are not afraid of being a concubine, then what does it matter if mistress is Jiang Yu or Qiao Ruoi?

The reason why you care so much and act as a hindrance is because you are extremely afraid that Xie Yun will marry the daughter of our Qiao family, right?

“After all, in your eyes, the Qiao family is a traitor among the aristocratic families. You think that after the Lu family seized the throne, they wanted to consolidate the imperial power and eradicate the aristocratic families. You think that our Qiao family is helping the Lu family to “Support the evil”, “Destroying the aristocratic families, right?

“You’re afraid that after Xie Yun, the only one who can revive the aristocratic families, marries the Qiao family’s daughter, she will surrender to the imperial court and completely abandon the aristocratic families that you’re so proud of, right?”

Mei canruo collapsed on the ground and said, “Qiao Jinniang, don’t talk nonsense!”

Qiao Jinniang laughed coldly and said, “Since you dare to call me by my name, it seems that you are dead for sure. If you want to revive an aristocratic family, let me tell you, it is absolutely impossible!”

Mei canruo’s eyes were filled with despair and she simply stood up from the ground, “Qiao Jinniang, back then, your Qiao family betrayed the aristocratic family and was disgraced by all the aristocratic families in the world. What kind of Hero is that? It is just that you, the Qiao family, want to be a slave and want a high position.

“Back then, when the power of the aristocratic families was above the imperial family, your Qiao family was just a small, insignificant aristocratic family. Naturally, you had to bow down to the Lu family!”

Qiao jinniang said, “No, why did the Lu family give up the position of the head of the aristocratic families to establish a new imperial court? Why did the Qiao family help the Lu family conquer the world back then?”?

Even a three-year-old child among the people knew that at that time, because of the separation of the aristocratic families from all over the world, the people did not have a good life. The people of the aristocratic families disregarded the lives of others!

There were even some people who owed the aristocratic families hundreds of taels of silver for a year of hard work. Whether it was the ancestors or my ancestors, they were all worried about the people!

“It’s a pity that you’ve wasted so many years of your studies. You’ve wasted so many years of your life among the people!”

Lu Chen stepped forward and held Qiao Jinniang’s hand. “Why are you angry with her? Men, arrest her and send her to the Lin ‘an magistrate’s office. After autumn, she will be executed.”

“Yes!”

When Mei Canruo was caught by the guards, she did not forget to shout, “Xie Yun, if you marry Qiao ruoyi, you will be a sinner of the aristocratic families!”

Fu Lu stepped forward and untied the belt of a servant of the Xie family. He stuffed it into Mei Canruo’s mouth. “What sinner? You are the sinner that everyone in the world hates!”

Mei canruo was stuffed with the belt and could not speak.

After Mei Canruo was taken away, Lu Chen said to Xie Yun, “Fu Lu doesn’t know literature and ink, so he knows the truth. Think about it carefully. You might become a sinner of a noble family.

“But if you are willing to work for the imperial court, hand over your private soldiers, and hand over the Xie family’s thousands of years of heritage to the imperial court, you will be the benefactor of all the people in the world. Just like how you presented books, a thousand years later.., “Xie Yun’s name in the history books will also be remembered for centuries.”

After Lu Chen finished speaking, he brought Qiao Jinniang and was about to leave.

Only to hear Xie Yun’s words from behind him, “If you want me to hand over the Xie family’s private soldiers and hand over all the heritage passed down from my ancestors to the imperial court, that’s fine too. There’s only one thing, I want Nichang to return to the Xie Family!”

“In Your Dreams!”Fu Lu and Qiao Jinniang said in unison.

Qiao ruoyi, who should have been angry, was not angry at all at this time. Without thinking, she said, “Okay!”

Fu Lu frowned at Qiao ruoyi and said, “Ruoyi, are you crazy? Giving niching to him? was he the one who abandoned niching back then? Why should our Qiao family’s daughter be given to him?”

Qiao jinniang said, “Yes, ruoyi, if Niching hears what you said, how sad she will be!”
