Everything was as Chu Ling expected. When the spring equinox left Chu Xiu's yard, Chu Shun and Xue Jinxiu came to the house with gifts and begged Chu Xiu to let go of their precious son.
Regarding Chu Quan's frame-up of him and Shi Chunfen, he had already heard about it when he just woke up. At first he felt angry, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Chu Quan was not targeting him, so he became much calmer. Chu Linneng
He could naturally imagine the situation he had analyzed, so he was not surprised at all by the arrival of Chu Shun and his wife.
"Ah Xiu, my second uncle doesn't have much friendship with you on weekdays, and I know it's a little abrupt to beg you." Chu Shun stood in front of Chu Xiu with an awkward look on his face. In just a few days, he had become much older, "But you
You also know that Ah Quan is my only legitimate son. Your second aunt is already very old, and Ah Quan is the only child in this life. Do you really have the heart to let two of us, a white-haired person, give away a black-haired person?"
"Second uncle's words are serious." Chu Xiu said with a smile: "I am still alive and well. I believe that the government will not let my cousin pay with his life. At best, he will be exiled."
He spoke calmly, but Chu Shun and Xue Jinxiu's expressions darkened again and again.
What does it mean to be exiled at best? Wouldn’t Chu Quan’s future in this life be completely ruined?
But because they were begging for help from him, the two of them resisted and did not have an attack. Even Xue Jinxiu, who was always fierce, begged in a good voice: "Aquan has been spoiled since he was a child. He has never endured the hardship of exile. If you let him go into exile, then
It’s no different than killing him. He is also your cousin after all. Do you really have the heart to do this to him?"
"This is not my decision." Chu Xiu said slowly and calmly: "He has been taken to the Yamen now, and it is up to the Yamen to judge him. There is no point in the second uncle and second aunt coming to me."
Seeing that he was speaking in an official tone, Xue Jinxiu's cheeks darkened and she couldn't bear it and said: "Don't talk about him here. Isn't the government office in Liuzhou opened by your big house? Who in Liuzhou would not give three points to your mother, the head of Huating County?"
Bo Mian, what’s more, your mother is still benevolent to the Liuzhou prefect, as long as she gives the order, let alone A Quan, even if the entire death row prisoners in Liuzhou are released, what’s the difficulty?”
She spoke so plausibly that she almost forgot that she was the one asking for help.
Chu Shun couldn't listen anymore, so he interrupted her words with a slight cough, and said with an apologetic smile to Chu Xiu: "What your second aunt means is that we are all our own people, and there is no need to beat around the bush. Whether you can let Ah Quan go or not is entirely up to you."
In a moment of thought. In this case, why not be more direct and tell us how we are willing to give Ah Quan a chance? As long as your second aunt and I can do it, both of us will agree unconditionally."
Seeing one of them playing bad-face and the other playing bad-face, Chu Xiu curled his lips and said calmly: "Why do you think I will negotiate terms with you? I have no reason to forgive a guy who almost killed me."
."
"But you should know that the person he wants to harm is not you." Chu Shun said bluntly: "If you and Ah Quan have a common enemy, then why not let him go and let him help you deal with Ah Ling?
"
What he said was so straightforward that even Xue Jinxiu was a little surprised. Once these words were revealed to the old lady, their second wife would be doomed from now on.
Sure enough, Chu Xiu's expression changed and he said coldly: "Second uncle, do you know what you are talking about? My eldest brother and I are brothers, what reason is there to harm him with others?"
"So what about brothers?" Chu Shun raised his lips in a self-deprecating tone, "Aren't your father and I also brothers? Doesn't he want to kill my son? If you really have such a good relationship with your eldest brother, today
You won’t see us anymore, will you?”
Seeing that he revealed what he was thinking, Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
Xue Jinxiu on the side heard this and quickly understood, and smiled at him, "Yeah, so what about brothers? Your eldest brother has been in the limelight in the Chu family these years, has he ever thought about supporting you?
Brother? You and he are obviously about the same age, but most of the Chu family's business has fallen into his hands. You have no luck at all, so what's the use of having such a big brother here?"
These words were full of womanly mentality, but they meant nothing to Chu Xiu.
He turned against Chu Ling not because of the Chu family's fortune. Although he wanted to compete with Chu Ling in every aspect, he really had no interest in business matters.
Chu Shun saw his lack of reaction and quickly added: "Maybe you don't care about these external things, but you already have a share of these properties. Your elder brother wants to swallow them. Don't you make it clear that he doesn't take you seriously?
?”
These words got into Chu Xiu's heart. Whether he wanted it or not was his business, but whether Chu Ling was willing to give it or not was another matter.
He may not want those shops, or he may not care about business matters, but Chu Lingti never mentioned giving them to him, which is somewhat intriguing in itself.
But Xianggui thought so. Facing the eyes of Chu Shun and Xue Jinxiu, Chu Xiu remained calm, "You don't have to sow discord here. Instead of trying to split the relationship between me and my eldest brother, it's better to give some substance."
For the benefit of sex, what good will it do to me if I spare your precious son?"
These words clearly indicated that they were willing to let him go. The two of them felt happy and said quickly: "Gold, silver, treasures, land deeds and shops, whatever you want, we can give you."
Chu Xiu glanced at them and said indifferently: "You should know that I don't care about these."
The two of them were stunned, and for a moment they were not sure what he wanted.
Chu Xiu chuckled lightly and said clearly: "I heard that the Zhenbei General's Mansion has a Northern Ming Army that is brave and good at fighting and is not under the jurisdiction of the court. I wonder if I am lucky enough to get this army?"
"What?!" Xue Jinxiu jumped up in shock, "You want the Bei Ming Army, are you crazy?"
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her calmly, "Isn't the future of your only son more important than the Beiming Army?"
Xue Jinxiu became anxious, "I am just a daughter who is married outside, how can I have the right to influence the fate of the Beiming Army?"
"That's your own problem, not mine." Chu Xiu said with a smile: "I heard that you are very popular in your mother's family, and you have made a lot of money in the Chu family over the years. Ah Quan is your only son.
They shouldn’t be willing to die without saving their lives, right?”
"You?!" Xue Jinxiu gritted her teeth with hatred when he saw him throwing the problem to her.
Chu Xiu looked at her and added with a smile: "Don't think about breaking the jar and simply send someone to rob the prison to rescue your son. Firstly, my mother will not let you do this. Secondly, even if you successfully rescued him,
, he will never see the light of day in this life, and he will no longer be the majestic third young master of the Chu family. For Ah Quan, who has always had a strong self-esteem, this should be more painful than death, right?"
