Jiang Shun hurriedly got up and went out, not forgetting to tell him: "Go tell the second prince!"
Immediately afterwards, he strode into the courtyard and saw a group of officers and soldiers standing menacingly in the courtyard, "Are you Jiang Shun?"
"Exactly, what's wrong?" Jiang Shun said angrily.
"Come with us! Someone in the yamen is accusing you of treating your wife poorly and deliberately slandering her!" Yang Qinglang, the official, said loudly.
Jiang Shun frowned in displeasure, "She sued me? How dare she sue me? I haven't sued her for having an affair yet!"
"You can go to the lobby to say these things. Now come with us!"
"I can't leave!" Jiang Shun said scornfully, "I am working for the second prince. If you want to ask me to go, please ask the second prince first if he agrees!"
Several officials looked at each other, and Yang Qing's tone seemed to be gentler, "Since this is the case, could you please inform the second prince? The governor has sent you a message, so you don't have to go."
Jiang Shun said nothing, just glanced at the door.
Just then, the servant rushed back and said breathlessly: "Master Jiang, the second prince said that he has something to ask you, so he asked you to go there quickly."
Jiang Shun looked at Yang Qing proudly and said, "Master Guancha, do you think I should listen to you or the second prince?"
Yang Qing smiled awkwardly and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I will go back and talk to our adults to see if we can postpone the trial."
Jiang Shun curled his lips proudly, "She is a woman who is not filial to her parents-in-law, disrespectful to her husband, and has an affair with someone else. She just wants to extort a sum of money!"
Yang Qing said nothing, just smiled and repeated, "I'm going to tell our adults that I can't make the decision in this matter."
"Go, go! Thank you!" Jiang Shun's thanks did not seem very sincere.
Although Yang Qing was dissatisfied, he was afraid of offending the second prince, so he had no choice but to leave like this.
Yang Qing returned to the lobby. Jiang Changgong, Xiuniang, the new county governor Wu Yukun and others had been waiting for a long time. When the official came up to whisper a few words to Wu Yukun, he immediately frowned tightly.
"Someone sued him, but he didn't show up?!" Wu Yukun's face was full of displeasure.
"Who says it's not the case? But it was the second prince who sent him the message." Yang Qing looked resentful.
"Even the second prince cannot ignore the law!" Wu Yukun looked at Xiuniang with a sullen face, "Huang, please go back and wait. I will summon you after I send Jiang Shunlai."
Xiu Niang was already suffering from stage fright. After hearing what Wu Yukun said, she immediately didn't dare to say anything.
Jiang Changgong was not happy anymore. He suddenly asked: "Sir! What if Jiang Shun never comes?"
Wu Yukun's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he didn't know what he was angry about, "Who are you?"
Jiang Changgong, neither humble nor arrogant, replied: "The grass-roots man is the head of a family named Jiang in Tianshui Village!"
"Since you are the clan leader, why are you not interrogating this matter within the clan?" Wu Yukun looked at him suspiciously.
Jiang Changgong said hurriedly: "If Jiang Shun is still a member of the Jiang clan, the common people will interrogate him within the clan, but he was exterminated by Jiang Shi as early as three years ago!"
"Oh?" Wu Yukun expressed surprise.
Jiang Changgong said again: "Back then, this Jiang Shun..."
"Wait a minute!" Wu Yukun raised his hand, "Is there any connection between what you are talking about back then and what is happening now?"
"Of course there are!" Jiang Changgong glanced at the people in Dazhai Village behind him, "We all came from Dazhai Village, Baoshan Town to escape famine. On the way to escape famine, Jiang Shun's family sought the position of village chief.
They did everything they could on the road and made the whole village angry, so they exterminated their family. This is Jiang Shun's daughter-in-law."
"In this case, the Huang family is also a member of the Jiang family, so she should be exterminated as well." Wu Yukun looked at Xiuniang with a bad look.
Jiang Changgong said hurriedly: "No, no, no, because Huang didn't want to be with her along the way, and Jiang Shun was hanging out with the widow, Huang has stopped interacting with his family for a long time."
"Oh?" Wu Yukun looked away and frowned, "If that's the case, is it true that the divorce note says that the parents are unfilial and disrespectful to the husband?"
"Sir! That's not the case!" Xiu Niang was almost crying, "I don't know where he went a long time ago. My father-in-law died on the way to escape, and my mother-in-law was driven out of the village for causing trouble to the villagers. I just want to respect her.
Even if you want to be filial, you can’t find anyone!”
"That's it!" Wu Yukun's expression softened a lot, "Well, I will definitely find a way to bring Jiang Shun to the lobby!"
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!" Xiu Niang kowtowed repeatedly, tears streaming down her face.
Several people walked out of the lobby to the street, but Xiu Niang remained silent.
Jiang Changgong then spoke, "I heard that the previous county governor was exiled for embezzlement. This emperor must have been chosen carefully. I think he must be loyal and upright. You don't have to worry."
"How could I not be worried? Jiang Shun obviously did this intentionally..." Xiu Niang was still worried.
"How about we go find Tian Tian?" Jiang Changgong whispered.
Everyone looked at the way he cared about everything and inquired about everything. They all looked at each other and secretly believed that the rumors were true.
But at this time, anyone who dared to gossip had to shut up.
Xiu Niang was actually panicked, "Are you going to trouble her again?"
"Then what should we do? We can't keep fighting with him. This matter must be settled." Jiang Changgong thought for a while, "Forget it! I won't ask you anymore! I'll go find her with a shameless face!"
With that said, Jiang Changgong headed towards Jiang's house.
Xiu Niang opened her mouth, but nothing came out.
In fact, she also wanted to go to He Tiantian, but she thought it was too much trouble. Fortunately, Jiang Changgong thought of everything for her.
It had been several years since she had had no one to support her, but it seemed like a good time when she had someone to rely on.
Although Jiang Changgong said that whether it was reconciliation or divorce, he would definitely marry her regardless of the rumors, but Xiu Niang still didn't want to have the reputation of being divorced.
When Jiang Changgong came to Jiang's house, it happened that He Tiantian went to the military camp, so he planned to visit Jiang Shi and his wife.
When he walked into the courtyard, he suddenly saw a sneaky figure from behind, and was startled. "Who is that person?" he asked Hong Lu.
Hong Lu whispered: "I heard that he was the second master, and I only saw him twice occasionally."
"Jiang Yin?!" Jiang Changgong suddenly became nervous, "Do your old lady and old man know?"
"The old lady was made angry by him, so of course we dare not mention it, but the old man probably knows it. I see that although the second master rarely comes, since he came, the old man often runs away."
"Does your wife know?"
"He just came here twice occasionally, I didn't take it as a big deal..."
"This is a big deal!"
While talking, Jiang Changgong had already arrived outside Aunt Jiang's house.
He pushed the door open and went in. When he saw Aunt Jiang's sick appearance, he was shocked, "Jiang Shi's family, why are you so sick?"
