Chapter 367: Chapter 367: Uncle Xie Yun is my father
Qiao Ruoyi returned to Chang ‘an first. The ship was covered with white silk, but when she arrived at the dock, she saw that the people from the Luo family had arrived.
When Luo Wei’s adoptive parents saw Qiao ruoyi, Luo Wei’s adoptive mother slapped her in the face.
“You B * Tch!”
The guards controlled Luo Wei’s adoptive parents.
Qiao ruoyi had never expected that Luo Wei’s adoptive mother would slap her in the face directly. Yan Yu, who was at the side, said angrily, “This is a dignified second grade assistant minister. How can a wicked woman like you directly hit him?”
Fu Lu was also extremely angry. “I’m still here. How dare you directly hit me!”
Luo Wei’s adoptive mother spat, “I hit that B * Tch Qiao ruoyi. Back then, she married my son with a vile child. If it weren’t for her, my son wouldn’t have been killed at such a young age!”! “Aiyo, my son is gone just like that. How am I going to live in the future!”
Luo Wei’s adoptive brother, Luo Geng, also cried, “Two years ago, my brother was the top scholar in martial arts. He hunted black bears on the hunting ground and had a bright future. However, he married a woman who had an affair with someone else before she married him. These two years, you’re still unwilling to sleep with my brother. My Brother died a terrible death!”
Mother Luo cried, “Back then, he definitely wanted to marry you. However, he didn’t expect to come to Jiangnan and be harmed by you and your adulterer!”
Qiao lui went forward and said, “What nonsense are you talking about in front of the children? If you dare to talk nonsense again, don’t blame me for sending you to the government.”
Father and mother Luo cried as they lay on Luo Wei’s coffin. Mother Luo cried bitterly, “Luo Wei’s body is not even cold yet. Aren’t you afraid that he will come and take revenge on you for treating Luo Wei’s relatives like this?”
“Grandmother, Don’t disturb father anymore. Father is already asleep!”Little Nichang said coldly.
Luo Wei’s mother said, “You are not worthy of calling my son a bastard.”
Qiao ruoyi went forward and slapped Luo Wei’s mother, saying, “When Luo Wei was alive, you guys were always causing trouble. On account of Luo Wei’s reputation, I have never mistreated you guys. Why are you still causing trouble now?”
Mother Luo said, “What trouble? You colluded with an adulterer. You wanted to be the wife of the Xie family, so you were schemed against by the Jiang family’s daughter and caused my son’s death. Someone has long written to us about this matter.”
Mother Luo took out a letter from her bosom and said, “Take a look. This is a letter written by the daughter of the Wu royal family. I Can’t bear to see you disobeying the rules of womanhood. After you get married, you still want to use the vile spawn to become the Xie family’s mistress.”
Luo Geng also said, “Yes, you killed my brother. You must make up for it. Otherwise, our Luo family will not let you go!”
Princess Fu Lu was annoyed. “If you don’t believe that Ruo Yi is your daughter-in-law, why do you believe a Zhou Shihui whose reputation in Chang ‘an is full of lies? Your son was killed by Zhou Shihui!”
Luo Geng said, “Of course your Qiao family said so. Your Qiao family is powerful now, but our Luo family also believes that there is justice in the world!
“If your Qiao family doesn’t take out 100,000 taels of silver to compensate our Luo family, the news of Qiao Ruoyi killing her husband to marry into the Xie family will spread throughout the world in a few days, “The history books will also record that great Tang’s first female assistant was such a fickle person!”
Qiao lui was extremely angry. Fu Lu said, “A group of unruly people. Men, arrest them all and throw them into the prison. I Don’t care about the history books or the name-calling!”
Mother Luo panicked when she heard that. “My son, open your eyes when you wake up and see that your good wife is going to arrest your parents. Qiao ruoyi, are you letting Luo Wei down by treating us like this?”
Qiao Ruoyi stepped forward and pulled mother Luo away from Luo Wei’s coffin. Many workers who were loading goods on the dock heard the noise and came over.
Qiao ruoyi, who was dressed in plain white, said angrily, “You are not worthy of mentioning Luo Wei, let alone touching his coffin!
Ever since Luo Wei and I got married, you used the name of our Qiao family to build a manor in the suburbs of Chang ‘an and accepted bribes instead of doing anything.
One by one, I should have convicted you long ago. It was Luo Wei who begged bitterly that you were the last time, saying that you had brought him up. On account of our relationship as husband and wife, I tolerated you everywhere, i spent money to help you get out of trouble.
Over the past two years, how much of Luo Wei’s and my salary has been used on you!
But what about you?
Luo Wei had just died, and you demanded 100,000 taels of silver. What do you think of Luo Wei? Your Money Tree?”
Qiao ruoyi clenched her fists tightly. “I’m not the one who’s sorry, Luo Wei. It’s all of you.”
Luo Geng said anxiously, “Qiao Ruoyi, what nonsense are you talking about? It’s only right and proper for us to demand money from your Qiao family. You killed my brother, so you have to give an explanation to our Luo family. My Brother Just died, and you want to exterminate our Luo family. My brother has a spirit in the sky. Aren’t you afraid that he will come looking for you?”
Qiao lui said to the guard at the side, “Arrest these few unruly people and shut their mouths.”
Before her mouth was shut, mother Luo did not forget to shout, “Qiao Ruoyi, you gave your daughter the surname of Qiao and did not want to have the surname of Luo. Didn’t you want to use your daughter’s mother and son to enter the Xie family one day?
Unfortunately, the head of the Xie family does not like you, and does not like your daughter who was born with an evil seed!”
Nichang tugged at Qiao Ruoyi’s sleeve and raised her head to look at Qiao Ruoyi. “Mother, is what she said true? is uncle Xie Yun my father?”
Qiao ruoyi squatted down and said to nichang, “Your father only has Luo Wei. Your father is General Luo who has rendered meritorious service in suppressing the bandits. He won’t be anyone else’s.”
Nichang nodded. “Yes, my father is a general. A mighty general.”
After Qiao Lui controlled all the members of the Luo family, he asked Qiao ruoyi, “What should we do? Should we bring them back to Chang ‘an for punishment, or let them stay in the prison in he city for a few years so that they won’t talk nonsense again?”
Qiao ruoyi looked at the coffin and said, “They have committed many serious crimes in Chang ‘an. Bring them back to Chang ‘an for punishment.”
Luo Wei’s body was not cold yet. Qiao ruoyi really did not want to become enemies with Luo Wei’s adoptive parents, who had been filial to him all his life. However, they had gone too far.
After Qiao Ruoyi boarded the boat, she looked at the letter Zhou Shihui wrote to Luo Wei’s adoptive parents and said angrily, “Zhou Shihui died too quickly. It was not enough to kill Luo Wei, but he still thought of this trick.”
Qiao lui looked at Fu Lu and said, “This word doesn’t seem to belong to Zhou Shihui.”
Fu Lu’s eyes widened and said, “You still know Zhou Shihui’s Word? Where’s My Whip?”
Qiao lui held Fu Lu’s hand and said, “Don’t be angry. This word really doesn’t belong to Zhou Shihui. I have a photographic memory for words. This word definitely doesn’t belong to Zhou Shihui.”
Qiao ruoyi pointed at the seal at the bottom and said, “But this Red Seal is clearly Zhou Shihui’s seal.”
Qiao lui said, “The seal is Zhou Shihui’s, but the words are not. Moreover, the news of Luo Wei’s death could not reach Lin ‘an. Zhou Shihui only found out about Luo Wei’s death when you found the Qian family. He could not write a letter to the Luo family’s adoptive parents in such a short time!”
Qiao ruoyi listened to Qiao Lui’s words and also felt that it made sense. “But who else would be scheming?”
