The patriarch and the elders all hesitated and looked at each other.
The patriarch smiled and persuaded: "Aning, this matter still needs to be considered in the long term..."
"Yes, Qin Xin is pregnant now... This incident will benefit the Qin family without any harm." A gray-haired, long-bearded clan elder quickly agreed.
Qin Xin was pregnant with the emperor's eldest grandson. The elders had already heard about it. Whether the child in Qin Xin's belly is a male or female, this child is the emperor's first grandchild and will definitely be loved by the emperor.
It's really inappropriate to remove Qin Xin from his clan at this time. Isn't this just offending the second prince?
What if Qin Xin really had that Yundao give birth to the emperor's eldest grandson? !
Several other clan elders also felt that this matter could be waited and watched, so why bother to do so.
However, Qin Zening has made up his mind and will not change because of anyone's persuasion.
"Uncle grandfather, Qin Xin has a flawed character and is vicious and ruthless. She not only encouraged Su to poison her grandmother, but also..." Qin Zening's eyes were dark and her voice became colder and colder, "I suspect that Qin Xin might have killed her grandfather. !"
"..."
There was a silence in the hall, followed by an uproar, and the patriarch and the elders looked at each other again.
The clan elder with the long beard couldn't help but said, "Master Hou, you just doubt, if there is no evidence, could you make a mistake?"
Others also persuaded: "Yes, when your grandfather went, Qin Xin was still under five years old, how could such a small girl kill someone!"
"Master Hou, I know that your grandmother's affairs make you chill, but don't think about it."
"Su's vicious intention to kill her mother-in-law is really hateful, but your second uncle and Qin Xin are innocent in this matter."
"..."
For the patriarch and these elders, no matter whether Qin Zhun killed his mother or not, as long as there is no evidence, they hope that Qin Zhun is innocent. After all, if the Qin family has children to do such a conscienceless thing, it would be bad. The reputation of the Qin clan.
Those clan elders nodded one after another, all standing on the same front, and Qin Zening's brows became more frowning.
Sparks burst in the air.
Seeing that they were about to argue, Qin Jiao said with a smile: "Patriarch, eldest brother, if you don’t make a deal today, it’s better to talk about it tomorrow. Ayu will enter the palace later, and he promised the six princes to accompany him to practice. Horse's."
Qin Zeyu did not expect that the conversation would suddenly come to him, and he nodded subconsciously. He did make an appointment with Gu Yu today, to enter the palace to play with him.
Qin Jiu smiled and said again: "The emperor and the empress went to the winter hunt, but the sixth prince stayed in Beijing alone and was very bored."
"Ayu, you have to be free, go into the palace to accompany your highness to relieve your boredom."
"Wrap it on me." Qin Zeyu's eyes lit up instantly and he patted his chest.
In the past few months, he has been stared at by his sister to study and practice martial arts, and he has no time to play. Even this time in Winter Hunt, his brother and his sister did not agree to let him go, and he was almost boring.
Qin Jiu seemed to just say this casually, but the patriarchs and elders were thoughtful and looked at each other.
They suddenly realized that this is different from the past. It turned out that the Hou Mansion was in charge of Qin Zhun, and Qin Zhun had always lean on the second prince.
But now it’s Qin Zening who inherits the title of the Marquis. The sixth prince is Qin Zening’s own cousin. This blood relationship destined that Qin Zening will choose to stand on the side of the six princes, and the reason why the Sacred Heart is now It is very clear, everyone knows why the emperor left the six princes to jail the country.
And the second prince is obviously, in the past few months, no Sacred Heart!
Besides, the second prince will soon marry Tang's daughter as the full concubine, and the Qin family is not even a serious relative of the second prince.
Therefore, for the Qin clan, only one of the two princes and the sixth prince can be selected, and this wall-to-head grass is the most unreliable.
The patriarch tightly grasped the armrest of the Grand Master's chair, his eyes flickering.
Once, Qin Zhun selected the second prince, but now he is exiled.
The patriarch also knew that the reason why Qin Zhun moved Changyingku's money was mostly to fill it with the second prince... Qin Zhun was seized, ransacked, and exiled because of the second prince, but what did the second prince do? !
Qin Zhun's fate is a lesson from the past. What's more, with the relationship between the Sixth Prince and Qin Zening, it is impossible for the three Qin Zening brothers and sisters to leave the Sixth Prince to support the Second Prince.
The patriarch's eyes became firmer and firmer, and he figured it out all at once.
For the Qin family, in fact, there is no other choice but to choose the six princes.
The clan elder with long beards wanted to say something but was stopped by the clan leader with a wink. The clan leader resolutely said: "Aning, what you said is quite true."
"Qin Xin's heart is not right. Not only did his biological parents confuse the Qin family's blood, but they also committed homicide. If the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is distorted, Qin Xin is also suspected of murdering the old man and his wife.
The patriarch is the cousin of the old Houye. He is highly respected and has served as the patriarch for many years. He is quite prestigious in the patriarch. Even if he said so, the other elders also responded to him.
Qin Zening glanced at Qin Jiu with a smile, and immediately said: "Uncle grandfather, it is better to hit the sun if you choose a day..."
Anyway, the patriarchs and elders are all here, so it's just today.
As for Qin Xin, it's okay if she is or not, and she doesn't have a woman to talk about affairs in the family.
Therefore, they opened the ancestral hall that day, removed Qin Xin's name from the Qin family's genealogy, and the chief steward went to Jingzhao's Mansion to file the record.
After that, Qin Zening sent another maid to the Second Prince's Mansion and informed Qin Xin.
When Qin Xin heard the news, the whole person was dumbfounded.
Gu Jing drove to the hunting palace, and she could only hurriedly ride in the carriage alone to return to the Zhongyi Hou's Mansion.
Qin Xin was flustered, confused and scared, and her body was shaking uncontrollably along the way.
She knows her own affairs. She is in a very difficult situation now. She has to always prevent Gu Jing from leaving her mother and child. Why does the Qin family have to fall into trouble? Once Gu Jing came back to learn about this, how would he react? !
Just thinking about it, Qin Xin felt cold all over, and she told herself that she must see Mrs. Qin Tai.
With a heart that is bound to win, Qin Xin entered the door of the Qin Mansion this time.
After all, it was Qin Jiao who let her in.
"Grandma!" Qin Xin knelt on the ground when she saw Mrs. Qin Tai, crying tears on her delicate face, "How can you be so cruel, how can you deny me!"
Since her rebirth, in the past ten years, she has been so dedicated and filial to Mrs. Qin, but Mrs. Qin has abandoned her like a shoe, and Qin Xin only felt that she was stabbed again.
This is the case for the second prince, and the same is true for Mrs. Qin. I am afraid that only the biological mother Zhao Aman is dedicated to her and will not betray her!
Mrs. Qin Tai looked at Qin Xin who was kneeling on the ground, thinking about all these years, thinking about the dead old man. After all, she didn't say a word. Now facing Qin Xin's tears, she no longer has the slightest tear. Moving content.
"Grandma..." Qin Xin saw that Mrs. Qin didn't speak, and his heart became colder. After walking a few steps, he heard the maid's salute from outside.
After that, Qin Zening and Qin Jiu came in one after another.
Qin Xin subconsciously looked up at the two of them, and his eyes fell on Qin Jiu's delicate jade face.
Qin Zhuo is beautiful and beautiful, Yan Ruo Shunhua, like the delicate flower blooming on the branches, but at this moment, he is tearful and embarrassed, like a broken flower and a willow, pale in comparison.
Qin Xin could hardly look at Qin Jiu directly, feeling extremely embarrassed.
But she still didn't look away, raised her head and looked at Qin Zening, and asked: "Big brother, why are you expelling me from the clan?"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Qin Zening's mouth, and said lightly: "You are not from Qin's family."
Qin Xin bit her pale lower lip, and said, "My father has an inheritance document in his hand. Since I have been on the Qin family tree, I am the Qin family." She said "father" refers to Qin Zhun.
"The imperial court has laws, and only if the wicked is unforgivable, can you be deposed."
"what did I do?"
"Even my father committed corruption crimes, was deprived of nobility and exiled, but was not removed from his clan, why should I be removed?" Qin Xin asked vigorously, feeling both grief and indignation in his heart.
She is in such a predicament, and they don't need to help her, and they have to push her again!
If she loses her identity as the daughter of the Qin clan, then she is the daughter of a murderer. In the second prince's mansion, she is not as good as a lowly maidservant, who would look at her high.
Now she wants to prevent Gu Jing from leaving her mother to keep her son, and she can't lose her identity...otherwise, she won't have any reliance.
The more Qin Xin thought about it, the more frightened she felt. She felt as if she was standing on the edge of a cliff. There was a bottomless abyss in front of her.
"Grandmother," Qin Xin could only pleadingly looked at Mrs. Qin Tai, tears falling like broken pearls, so weak, pitiful, helpless, and helpless. "Granddaughter is really suffering now. Thinking about the love of grandparents and grandchildren for so many years, please feel sorry for your granddaughter."
"Although the granddaughter is pregnant with the emperor's eldest grandson, the second prince will soon marry the imperial concubine again, and the imperial concubine is still the cousin of the Yu Palace.
"Given the love between the granddaughter and the second prince, the future second prince and concubine will definitely not be able to tolerate the granddaughter..."
Qin Xin said sadly. On the one hand, she was trying to win Mrs. Qin’s sympathy. She knew that only Mrs. Qin in the Qin family was the most softhearted. On the other hand, she reminded them that she was pregnant with the emperor’s eldest grandson at this moment. To be prosperous and wealthy, you should not let her go at this time.
Qin Xin did everything in order to persuade Mrs. Qin Tai, not only moving her with affection, but also enticing her to profit.
However, Mrs. Qin Tai was still unmoved, looking at Qin Xin coldly, as if watching an actor on the stage.
"Qin Xin," Qin Zening said coldly, "Do you really not know the reason why you were extermined?"
Qin Xin looked at Qin Zening with a pair of misty eyes without blinking, and said with a bit of injury and aggrieved: "Big brother, you misunderstood me too deeply."
Qin Zening had long known that Qin Xin was an immortal temper who did not see the Yellow River. His expression was calm and calm, and he said, "Killing one's relatives is an unforgivable sin."
Qin Xin said again: "Big Brother, I really didn't encourage my mother...Su Clan. Just believe me once."
Qin Zening approached her for half a step, looked down at Qin Xin, and said almost every word: "Do you still remember the oleander forest in Mengji County Station?"
"That bowl of sweet soup with oleander added, I wonder if you have tasted it yourself?"
"..." Qin Xin's face became paler than the white snow on the branches outside the window. There was no blood on her face. Her pupils suddenly shrank, as if she had seen a ghost.
Qin Zening has yet to find any conclusive evidence to prove that Qin Xin murdered his grandfather. The doctor He who had seen the old man in Ancheng County went to Jinzhou six years ago, but his people are so good. It was easy to chase after Jinzhou, but no one was found. It is said that Dr. He took his whole family back to his hometown of Shuzhou the year before last. Shuzhou is thousands of miles away, and with a vast area, it is not so easy to find people.
However, Qin Xin's expression told him that they had made no mistake!
Sure enough, Qin Xin did it!
Qin Zening's expression was cold, and his whole body seemed to have turned into an unsheathed sword, murderous, as if Qin Xin's blood would be splashed on the spot in the next moment.
Mrs. Qin also noticed it, her hand pressed hard, and the string of beads in her hand broke...
Just listening to the sound of "cracking", the broken beads fell to the ground one by one, rolling around on the mirror-like ground.
Qin Xin recovered and hurriedly said: "Brother, I don't understand what you are talking about!"
Qin Xin made a dazed look, but in the eyes of Mrs. Qin Tai, Qin Zening and Qin Jiu, her acting skills are extremely poor.
Even if Mrs. Qin had such a slight fluke about this matter before, I hope it is not Qin Xin, not the granddaughter she brought up, at this moment, this last trace of illusion is completely shattered.
"I don't understand?" Qin Zening's eyes were sharp, and he let out a sneer from the bottom of his throat, "If you really feel that you are innocent, do you want to go to the court and talk about it, and talk about why our Qin family wants to expel you from the clan!"
"Whether grandfather's death has anything to do with you, you know in your heart!"
Qin Xin: "..."
Qin Xin's heartbeat speeded up by two beats, almost afraid to look directly at Qin Zening's eyes, but still insisted: "I haven't done it, brother, don't wrong me."
"I know that since the eldest brother, you know that my biological mother exchanged me with my third younger sister, you didn’t like me and you always wanted to drive me out of the Qin family. But in order to expel me from the clan, you just wronged me and killed my grandfather. It’s too deceitful to fall on my head."
"Well, since you haven't read the affection for so many years for half a year, then I won't beg you anymore."
"Can't I leave?!"
Qin Xin wiped his red eyes with a kerchief, got up from the ground, and turned to leave.
"Wait." Qin Jiu called Qin Xin aloud.
"Third sister, no, I should call you Miss Qin San, dare to ask the girl any advice?" Qin Xin smiled sarcastically, as if to say that she has retired and then retired, they still want how about it!
"I don't dare to teach." Qin Jiao smiled slightly. "I heard my grandmother say that my grandfather left a few shops for his granddaughter. Now that you have nothing to do with the Qin family, then these shops should naturally pay back. Come!"
Qin Xin: "..."
Qin Xin seemed to be choked, speechless. Those shops have long since disappeared. As early as last year, she had already sold those shops in order to collect silver to seal Yunguang Daochang’s mouth. After adding some other shops, she raised the 10,000 yuan. Two silvers.
But even so, I didn't expect Yun Guang to testify against her, which caused her to become a humble concubine from the dignified future second prince and concubine.
Thinking of what happened at that time, Qin Xin still feels aggrieved, and his hand holding the veil is tight.
Qin Jiao smiled and said again: "Those shops were left to me by my grandfather."
Hearing what Qin Jiao said, Mrs. Qin couldn't help but recalled the past and nodded.
The few shops were bought by Lord Hou after he brought Qin Xin back to Beijing eleven years ago. He said at the time that they were reserved for his granddaughter as a dowry.
Originally, for Mrs. Qin Tai, Qin Xin was raised by her and her granddaughter, so she did not expect this.
But now it's different. Qin Xin killed Old Hou Ye. No matter how good Mrs. Qin Tai was, she could not tolerate Qin Xin with the dowry that Old Hou Ye bought!
Qin Zening raised an eyebrow and secretly applauded Qin Jiao. Mrs. Qin may not know, but Qin Zening knows best that when Qin Xin was selling them at a low price, he asked someone to quietly buy them and transfer them to Qin Jiu.
But even so, Qin Xin can't be taken advantage of for nothing. Qin Xin obviously took advantage of the Qin family. However, he was not merciful when he started to harm the Qin family.
Qin Xin is an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf. No matter how nice the Qin family has been to her over the past ten years or so, she will not remember it. What she remembers is always why the Qin family refuses to obey her.
Under the burning gazes of Qin Jiu and Qin Zening, Qin Xin looked at Mrs. Qin pitifully and called out, "Grandma!"
Thinking of Old Houye, Mrs. Qin's heart tightened again, and said with a serious face: "It is the original owner of the thing."
"..." Qin Xin looked at Mrs. Qin with disappointment, completely heartbroken.
She has always been filial and respectful to Mrs. Qin, treating her as a grandmother, but what happened? However, Mrs. Qin had a grudge against her because of Su's few words of provocation, and now she is even more abandoning her as an abandoned child.
Qin Xin's heart was as cold as soaking in ice water, so cold that it penetrated into the bone marrow.
She closed her eyes, her eyes became redder, and her voice said hoarsely: "Zu...Mrs. Qin, I have a hard time living in the Second Prince's Mansion now. Those who go to see the dishes and order food, those shops are already open. How many days do you have grace."
After a pause, she said again: "I have been under your knees for so many years, so don't you think about your grandparents' love at all?
"You are no longer a member of the Qin family." Madam Qin raised her eyes and looked at Qin Xin, her eyes were unusually tough, and she said hard, "The property that the old master bought will fall to kill him. In human hands, he will never rest in peace."
Once, how much Mrs. Qin Tai loved Qin Xin, now she hates her, and she hates herself for having no eyes.
Qin Zhun, Su's family, and Qin Xin, she didn't give her heart and soul to them before, but how did they return her? It's because I'm so confused, I don't know people clearly, and I almost killed myself and the whole family!
Mrs. Qin's heart hurts as if she was crushed by something.
"..." Qin Xin's expression turned ugly again.
Qin Jiao watched her procrastinate, and said leisurely: "Li Daya, do you want to go to Jingzhao Mansion and talk about it?"
Qin Xin gritted his teeth and said: "I'll give it, I can always get the silver when I go back!"
From then on, she and the Qin family had nothing to do with each other, and they had no relationship at all! She will never come here again, never come to beg them again!
Qin Jiu said casually: "These shops should be discounted into cash for five thousand taels."
Qin Zening knew how much these shops were worth. He calmly watched his sister start to speak loudly again.
"After an hour, I will have someone deliver the silver ticket." Qin Xin didn't want to stay here to take the humiliation, and left after leaving this sentence.
Qin Xin is no longer a member of the Qin family. Naturally, she can't let her walk around in the Hou Mansion at will. A little maid immediately followed.
Qin Xin left, but the air in the room was still a little depressed, even Mrs. Qin felt dull when she was used to smelling incense.
Although she asked for the shop back, Mrs. Qin was still puzzled and said angrily: "A Ning, it should be reported to Jingzhao Mansion..."
"Grandma, don't worry, I know how to count." Qin Zening comforted Mrs. Qin Tai and sat down on the kang with her arm.
Qin Zening quietly exchanged a tacit look with Qin Jiu.
Of course they didn't plan to just let Qin Xin go.
Yesterday, when Qin Zening sent two escorts to Huizhou to find Doctor He back to Beijing, telling him that when Doctor He and his family went to Shuzhou, Qin Zening was disappointed and even more angry.
Shuzhou is vast and sparsely populated, and the journey is far away. It takes a month of effort to come and go, not to mention the huge crowds. They only know that Dr. He’s hometown is in the east of Shu. Someone will be found, even in a few years...
In this situation, even if they report to the official and accuse Qin Xin of murdering Old Hou Ye, there is neither evidence nor material evidence, so Qin Xin will definitely not be convicted.
Why is Qin Zening willing to let Qin Xin go so far away? He can't wait to kill Qin Xin with his own hands immediately, so that she can pay her blood, but is stopped by Gu Zezhi: "Qin Xin is insignificant, not enough to make you kill someone. crime."
"She is not worthy."
Gu Zezhi's words seemed to pour a bucket of cold water on Qin Zening, calming him down.
Qin Xin is indeed unworthy.
His sister and his younger brothers no longer have the protection of their grandfather and father. As the eldest brother, the eldest brother is like a father. He has his responsibilities. Instead of letting the younger brothers worry about him because of a moment of anger.
Qin Zening also thought about whether to visit Shuzhou himself, but Gu Zezhi said: "The most urgent task is to expel Qin Xin from the clan as soon as possible, so as not to harm the Qin family."
After Qin Zening assaulted the Lord, he was busy, and for a while, he ignored that Qin Xin was still in the Qin family's genealogy.
Hearing this, he immediately followed suit.
Since going to Minzhou with Gu Zezhi, Qin Zening still knows a little about Gu Zezhi. This person takes one step and thinks a hundred steps. He will never propose to remove Qin Xin from his clan for no reason.
After carefully chewing Gu Zezhi's words, Qin Zening vaguely understood what he didn't say clearly. Qin Xin seemed to have caused a crime that would harm Man's family.
The crime of contaminating the family is definitely more serious than her murdering grandfather, enough to make Qin Xin die without a place to be buried!
And he would watch Qin Xin step by step on his way to death with his own eyes.
Qin Zening's eyes became deeper and deeper, as if a sword was put in a box, temporarily hiding his powers and bidding his time.
The grandparents and grandchildren sat down, while the servants in the house were busy. Some were busy cleaning up the fallen Buddhist beads, some were re-serving tea for the masters, and some hurried to make soothing tea for Mrs. Qin.
When Mrs. Qin finished drinking the tranquilizing tea, she was coaxed by Qin Jiao to go to rest. I really don’t want Mrs. Qin to bother about Qin Xin anymore. After all, she is getting older. Not only was she poisoned recently, but she also suffered. After several blows, I can no longer withstand any storms.
After Mrs. Qin took a rest, Qin Zening and Qin Jiu went to the front yard, and people led Qin Xin, who came to the house again, to a hall in the front yard.
"This is five thousand taels of silver notes, the silver notes of Chase Bank, you have to verify it!"
Qin Xin angrily pressed the banknote on a square table, looking like he couldn't wait to throw it on their faces.
When she got married, because she was a concubine, there was not much dowry money in the house, and some of the dowry was returned by the educating mother in the palace. Later, the second prince asked her to ask Qin Zhun for money, she deliberately said a little more, and got some money from Qin Zhun and hid it privately.
Originally, she wanted to use this amount of silver. It was not a last resort and did not intend to use it. After all, there were too many variables in life, and even the second prince, who she thought would not change, has become completely unrecognizable.
In this world, only silver is the most credible.
Qin Jiu unceremoniously counted the five silver bills with a denomination of one thousand taels, waved his hand and said, "The silver goods are two."
