Chapter 18 New Mission
Chapter 18 New Mission
Before Su Guang could argue again, the doorman had already opened the main gate, and the coachman immediately drove the carriage into the outer courtyard.
He was filled with anger but couldn't vent it, so he could only yell at the bunch of old scholars:
"Get out of here! You have no talent, but you keep relying on the Marquis' Mansion to support you in your old age. Do you even want the Marquis' Mansion to buy you a coffin and send you off in the end?
You are a role model for others, yet you are dreaming all day long! Go back and clean up your mess, or we will tear down your house and throw you all out on the street."
The group of old scholars were originally in despair, but after Qian Qiansui's intervention, hope was rekindled in their hearts.
Regardless of whether the Marquis has really changed his mind, at least the Marquis's wife is still on their side. Now they can only go back and think about it carefully, and then find a way to contact the Marquis's wife.
"You idiot slave, you clearly falsely conveyed the Marquis's orders. You simply wanted to enrich yourself and act on your own initiative. Once I report this to the Marquis, I will punish you!"
Of course, it is impossible that all the old scholars are pedantic and inflexible. One of them shouted when he saw this.
No matter whose idea it was, if they wanted to save the academy, they had to put all the blame on Su Guang. That way, no matter what the Marquis' Mansion's original idea was, they could now find a way to keep the academy.
His colleague next to him hadn't figured it out yet and wanted to curse the Marquis, but he covered his mouth and took him aside.
Those who understood him also started to make a fuss. They had originally just been asking the Marquis to give the academy a way out, but in the end they were attacking Diao Nu and asking for justice.
Qian Qiansui was sitting in the carriage, and the sounds from the gate could still reach her ears, which showed how loud the noise was. She smiled knowingly, thinking that these old scholars were not completely oblivious to what was happening outside, but were just too upright in their daily lives.
It is true that good people are often bullied, no matter in ancient times or modern times.
"Madam, is this bad?"
The girl with naturally curly hair came from Lingnan. Her family had been displaced since she was a child and was sold to the Central Plains by human traffickers. After many twists and turns, she came to the Qian Mansion and had been serving the original owner personally.
It is said that he is an expert at making soup. His name is Bai Qing and he speaks with a Lingnan accent.
"It's nothing, just a servant. As for you guys, I had some problems last night, so I didn't know when you got into trouble. Where did the others go?"
In order to preserve the last bit of their wealth, the Qian family sent all their loyal servants and belongings to follow Qian Qiansui into the mansion of marquis.
"Madam, please save Madam Qian and the others. The Marquis has imprisoned everyone in our family. Bai Qing and I were clamoring to see Madam, and we were sold off because of the trouble we caused."
There were still scars on Yin Zhu's face, and his brows were full of stubbornness, showing that he was a man who never gave up. He was the most seriously injured in this accident.
In the original owner's memory, this person was a house-born child, and her relatives were among the dowry. She had always treated the original owner very attentively. This time, when Liu Ruyan mentioned that it was her who broke her nails, it was also her.
"Got it. Go back to the main courtyard. You guys go get some medicine and rest first. I'll find someone to release our people first. We can deal with the rest later."
There are too many people staring at the carriage, so it's easy to make mistakes if you talk too much. Let's talk about other things after we close the door.
As soon as he got off the carriage, Qian Qiansui heard the system notification.
[The third task is released, development plan.]
Mission content: Starting from scratch, the host already has the first pot of gold and a capable assistant. Now he needs to open a business place of his own, earn the first profit, and formulate a future business development plan.
Time limit: within three months.
Rewards: Tailor-made prizes based on the selected industry.
As expected, he was like the donkey of the production team, not given any rest at all. Qian Qiansui counted the days and found that every time he completed a task, there would be a new task as soon as he finished it, and there was no time to rest at all.
It would be better to postpone the completion of the task, take a break in the middle, and give yourself a break.
After returning to his own room, the two maids had just arranged accommodation when Su Guang ran in angrily and threw away the family portrait that tried to stop him.
Standing at the door, he questioned, "Madam, you seem to be relaxing right now, but you don't know how much trouble you've caused the Marquis! If the Marquis comes back, he will definitely not let it go so easily!"
The Marquis and his staff had discussed the dilapidated academy many times, and they all wanted to demolish the old building and rebuild it, turning it into a summer resort.
In fact, they planned to secretly station troops there in preparation for a future uprising. This army could surprise the empress and catch her off guard.
But today's matter was ruined by those old guys and the stupid woman who just walked in. It should have been carried out quietly, but now it has become known to everyone at the gate. I guess if it's any later, even the empress will know about it. What else can they plot!
How could Qian Qiansui not know what they were planning? Of course she knew that the reason why Fu Zichan was so bold, arrogant, and blindly confident was because he was surrounded by a group of idiots who wanted to follow the dragon's merits and wanted to be orthodox men.
They were scheming and trying their best to overthrow the current empress, and tricked the son of the former crown prince, whose father had become a commoner, into becoming an angry young man who dreamed every day of restoring the Fu family's territory.
But now Fu Zichan is definitely doomed, but she still has to inherit everything in the Marquis' Mansion. How could she let these people add fuel to the fire and let these staff members who are eager to watch the fun drag the entire Marquis' Mansion into trouble?
The head is very good, she is very satisfied with it and doesn’t want to change it!
"How do you know that the Marquis didn't ask me to do this?"
Qian Qiansui is not afraid of this housekeeper. If her indenture had not been found yet, she would have sold him out long ago.
Su Guangcai didn't believe it. Even if he didn't know the Marquis's plan after marrying the Qian family's girl, he participated in the whole plan to murder the Qian family. It was impossible that he would be blinded by lust after the marriage?
"Don't believe me? Then go find the Marquis and confront me. The academy can't be demolished, and you can't publicize it. I don't know the specific reason."
Everyone knows how to be mysterious. If you have the guts, bring the Marquis here for a walk.
Su Guang hesitated. He really felt that Qian Qiansui was talking nonsense, but he also saw that Qian Qiansui was fearless and seemed not afraid of being blamed by the Marquis. Could it be that the Marquis had other purposes?
Then think about it, the two maids who were supposed to have been sold also reappeared in this courtyard. Could it be that the Marquis has changed his plan?
But if the Marquis himself didn't show up, he really couldn't make a decision. If he ruined the Marquis's plan, even if he, Su Guang, had the Concubine Dowager standing behind him, he wouldn't survive the night.
"Madam, do you know where the Marquis is now?"
Qian Qiansui was tired and impatiently responded, "I don't know. He ran away in the middle of the night yesterday. He didn't go to any of the women outside. Where is he now? The Marquis won't say much to a woman like me who lives in a secluded house."
Su Guang was anxious when he saw that she didn't seem to be lying, especially since the people who were going to demolish the academy had already been found and were just waiting for the Marquis to give the order.
He didn't dare to disturb the concubine, so he prepared to go to the house of the marquis's confidant to discuss countermeasures.
As soon as this man left, Qian Qiansui called all the family members and asked them to find their dowry and release everyone.
