Chapter 340

~6 min read 1,054 words

Compared to that husband who didn't care about her.

This outsider was actually better to her.

Then.

She suddenly thought of Diaochan's words just now.

For a moment, she didn't know.

How to repay Jia Hui's kindness!

Jia Hui did not mention anything about repayment, but changed the subject: "The other party poisoned you; what do you intend to do?"

Yuan Niang blurted out: "Naturally, I will expose her and have her arrested!"

Concubine Concubine Qiao Concubine Concubine Qiao Concubine Qiao Lianfang's actions constituted attempted murder.

Because Yuan Niang had not died.

Those who plot to kill shall be sentenced to three years of penal servitude; if injury is caused, they shall be hanged; if death is caused, they shall be beheaded.

The Great Great Great Qian law distinguishes between intentional and negligent crimes in sentencing.

Generally, intentional crimes are punished more severely, and negligent crimes more lightly, which shows that the Great Great Great Qian law already takes the perpetrator's psychological motive into account for sentencing.

Jia Hui said: "You have no evidence!"

Yuan Niang was instantly stunned: "..."

Everyone watched Jia Hui quietly as he spoke with authority, their eyes filled with admiration and worship.

They only felt that Jia Hui was truly charming at this moment!

Jia Hui continued: "The other party likely bribed someone to poison you over a long period. To catch a thief, you must catch them with the stolen goods. If you report her now without proof, it will only alert her and let her escape."

Yuan Niang felt somewhat panicked after hearing this.

She was, after all, just a woman.

She knew nothing of these things.

So she looked at Jia Hui, appearing somewhat helpless.

"Please help me!"

So, Yuan Niang asked hurriedly, feeling embarrassed.

She could not forgive Concubine Concubine Qiao Concubine Concubine Qiao Concubine Qiao Lianfang.

Letting the other party get away was something she could not accept under any circumstances.

She feared that if she wasn't poisoned to death, she would be angered to death!

Xiang Xiang Xiang Yizhen also hurriedly said: "Please help her, My Lord."

Jia Hui feigned contemplation, then said: "To catch a thief, you must catch them with the goods. When you go back, act as if nothing is wrong. Just stop taking those medicines, and be cautious with your food and water."

Yuan Niang nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

As if she had found a backbone, she instantly felt much more relaxed.

She had been under too much pressure before.

In the Xu Mansion, there was the old lady.

And a whole crowd of people watching her for mistakes; she couldn't afford to make any.

She had to rely entirely on herself to hold things together.

The key was that her husband was useless.

He didn't protect or care for her; she had to rely on herself for everything.

Who knew the hardships involved?

If her husband had been useful, she wouldn't have been poisoned.

And she wouldn't have remained ignorant for so long!

In her heart.

Yuan Niang's resentment toward Xu Xu Xu Lingyi deepened!

"Then, after she enters the mansion, you keep an eye on her and the person she bribed. To catch a thief, you must catch them with the goods."

"As long as you catch them on the spot, you can have them sentenced."

"And it is not serious enough to catch her now; once she enters the mansion, she will be a member of the Xu household. If a servant or concubine plots to kill their master, they shall all be beheaded!"

A concubine, to put it bluntly, is still a servant, just a higher-ranking one.

If a concubine kills the wife, it is a capital crime!

Attempted murder is also punishable by severe penalties.

Yuan Niang nodded repeatedly after hearing this; she was now completely obedient to Jia Hui: "I understand."

Then she felt even more grateful to Jia Hui!

He had saved her life.

And helped her strategize for revenge!

She truly did not know how she could ever repay him.

At this time, Jia Hui did not mention anything about repayment.

After all, there were many people present.

So, seeing that everything had been discussed.

Jia Hui said: "It is getting late, and I should be heading out."

He had already finished his meal.

After speaking, he stood up.

The women hurriedly stood up as well.

"Safe travels, Husband!" "Respectfully sending off the Marquis!"

Under the gaze of the women.

Jia Hui left.

Seeing this.

It was nearly one o'clock in the afternoon.

Actually, it wasn't late for the women.

It wouldn't have been impossible for everyone to stay longer.

But now, because of Jia Jia Jia Baoyu's situation in the Rongguo Mansion.

Li Wan and the others couldn't stay too long.

They needed to go back and check on him, at least to show their concern.

So Li Wan, the two Chun sisters, and Lin Lin Daiyu were the first to take their leave.

As for learning the Five Animal Frolics.

They could just learn it tomorrow; a day or two wouldn't make a difference.

Then it was Yuan Niang and the women from the Xu Mansion.

Yuan Niang had removed a heavy burden from her heart, and her face, which had always been filled with worry, now had a few rays of sunshine.

But Concubine Concubine Qiao Concubine Concubine Qiao Concubine Qiao Lianfang, the enemy who had plotted against her, was still there.

So Yuan Niang also had to go back.

To find out exactly who Concubine Concubine Qiao Concubine Concubine Qiao Concubine Qiao Lianfang's insider was!

However, both parties waited until they had received the prescription written by Hua Tuo.

Before they left.

Each gave a generous consultation fee.

Just before leaving, as they were about to board their carriages.

Jin Jin Yuanyang suddenly came to leave a message for Yuan Niang.

【361】 Jia Xu, full of bad ideas, strikes again! Heading to Song Liang's house

Jin Jin Yuanyang said: "Lady Xu, my master says that if you are interested, you can have your son come to the mansion, where Principal Cai will personally tutor him in his studies. He should be able to catch up with the others' progress in three to five days."

Yuan Niang was overjoyed: "Please thank the Marquis on my behalf!"

"Mm."
