Chapter 321 One person is smart, the whole family is stupid
Jiang was so frightened that she dared not make a sound.
"Father, if you want to punish someone, punish me." Luo Heng was ready to take on everything.
Marquis Zhenyuan looked at the person in front of him with disappointment in his eyes. Could it be that their Luo family was really going to be finished?
There is no one in the mansion who knows what is going on!
No one has ever been able to implement his words. Everyone seems to have their own messed up ideas that they think are reasonable!
Everyone is exerting their strength, but they are exerting their strength from all directions!
"Grandfather!" Luo Jixun came into the house and knelt beside his father. "Grandfather, this matter is the Prince's Mansion that is framing us. I have already checked it out. These confessions were all spread by people from the Prince's Mansion!"
"You said it was a false accusation. Now, the whole city believes that it was done by our Luo family!" Marquis Zhenyuan threw away the ruler in his hand and sat down on the chair weakly.
"Father, what should we do now?"
"What should I do? You are asking me what to do now? When you asked Liu Ying to assassinate Ji Chuhe, why didn't you ask for my opinion? Luo Heng, do you think that the Luo family is still the same as before? In a fit of rage, the emperor can even abolish your sister and banish her to the cold palace. He can deprive the fourth prince of his chance to succeed to the throne and even let me, the great Marquis Zhenyuan, be dismissed from my post. Who do you think you are? If the emperor wants you dead, it's as easy as crushing an ant!"
"Father, didn't you also say that the emperor seemed to have punished us harshly, but he still left us a way out? This way may be the way for us to turn the tide in the future."
"Yes! I said so, but did I tell you to keep a low profile from now on, lie dormant in secret, and wait for the right opportunity? You were so brazen in assassinating the Crown Prince's wife! You are so brave!"
"Grandfather, the Prince's Mansion can't get any evidence, so how can they prove that it was us who did it! Also, the confessions they spread don't have the seal of the government office, so they have no effect at all! How can they harm us!"
Marquis Zhenyuan took a deep breath. He didn't know which link went wrong. How could so many idiots be born!
"Do you think these things are unimportant? They can't hurt the Luo family? Do you know that these things are at the weak spot of our Luo family? Once someone attacks us, it will be a fatal blow to us! You haven't seen the benefits yet!"
Everyone in the room was silent.
"You don't understand. Let me tell you, the Fourth Prince can only turn things around by seizing the throne. This is also our Luo family's only chance!"
"What I said is that we still have a way out, a hope of turning things around, and that the emperor has not yet killed us all! Doesn't the emperor expect that we still have the intention of seizing the throne? This is something that can only be understood between the monarch and his subjects, but not spoken out loud! What did you misinterpret it into? Do you think that the emperor still values our Luo family?"
"At this time, the more low-key we are, the better. We should lower our posture and do good deeds! Even if the people from the Prince's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion slap us in public, we will have to smile and apologize! Look at what you have done!"
"With our Luo family's current reputation, how much obstacles will we have to endure when we help the Fourth Prince seize the throne in the future! Is there anyone who dares to work for us?"
After Marquis Zhenyuan said this, the people in the room completely understood.
"Father, how can we save the situation now?"
"You and Jiang Shi brought gifts and went to visit the Prince's Mansion with great fanfare today!"
Luo Heng endured the humiliation in his heart, clenched his hands and nodded.
"No matter how the people in the Prince's Mansion treat you, you have to bear it!"
"Yes." Luo Heng responded again.
……
Ji Chuhe was teasing little Yuanbao when Mianzhu came hurriedly with a report.
"Madam, someone from the Luo family is here."
"Without a visiting card and without anyone's permission, you came here uninvited. What a grand show." Ji Chuhe slowly sat up straight.
"No. Just say that the prince and his wife are seriously injured and are recovering, so it is not appropriate for them to see guests. Also, check outside to see if there are any people watching the excitement. If there are, pretend to be reluctant to accept the things they brought, and leave them outside the mansion gate. Do not bring them in, and then send them away."
"Yes!" Mianzhu immediately went to arrange it.
"Madam, I'd better handle this matter myself. Mrs. Jiang is not easy to deal with." Qingluo took the initiative to say.
"Okay." Ji Chuhe nodded.
Qingluo immediately walked out of the mansion.
She glanced around and found that there were more people watching the fun than she had imagined.
"Mr. Luo, Madam Luo, my prince and his wife are both seriously injured, so it is really inappropriate for them to meet guests. Please go back." Qingluo walked forward and said politely.
"I recognize you. Your name is Qingluo, right? My husband and I came here today because we really want to visit the Crown Prince and his wife. Also, there are some rumors outside that have caused the misunderstanding between our two families to deepen. Today, we have come to explain in person. It is easier to resolve a feud than to make one. We really want to be on good terms with the Crown Prince's Mansion." Jiang looked at Qingluo and explained humbly.
The more she acted like this, the more domineering the Prince's Mansion seemed.
A servant dared to show disrespect to her, the wife of the Zhenyuan Marquis.
"Mrs. Luo, what rumors are you talking about? Is it the last time when our prince's housewarming party was poisoned? How can that be a rumor? The Luo family has already been punished. Even if this matter is in the past, why are you still holding on to it?" Qingluo retorted loudly.
Jiang was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Qingluo to talk about what happened last time.
"Also, what you think is your business, but you should also be considerate of others, right? My wife was stabbed and almost lost her life. The prince was also shot by an arrow when he tried to find a doctor for his wife, and was seriously injured! The ladies of the Duke's Mansion were so worried about the prince and his wife that they didn't come to visit them. What kind of relationship do you have with the prince's mansion? How could the prince and his wife entertain you when they were seriously injured?"
When the people around heard this, they immediately started talking.
"Yes, have you considered others when you come to their house at this time? The master of their house is injured and it is not appropriate for him to see guests!"
"It's obvious to them!"
"In my opinion, it's because of those confessions!"
Jiang listened to the discussions around her and realized what a stupid thing she had done!
If Ji Chuhe had really died, it would have been fine. At least they would have gained some benefits, and Ji Chuhe was not dead. But now, they are the ones who are suffering.
"That's not what I meant. If it's really inconvenient, please accept our kindness." Jiang said pitifully.
"No need, we have everything in our Prince's Mansion."
"Of course I know, but this is my intention. I know that I am a sinner. Originally, the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion and the Rongguo Duke Mansion were old friends. It was my appearance that caused the relationship between the two families to become hostile. It is all my fault."
After Jiang finished speaking, she suddenly knelt down.
