I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night Chapter 279 Protecting His Wife

279 Protecting His Wife
Such disputes had already happened countless times in Marquis Beining’s ministry. Song Xiao’s family was full of liars. No matter what, they always refused to admit their wrongdoings!
“That’s right, that’s right. Brother, I was wronged!” Song Minggui, who was lying on the ground and almost numb from the cold, had suffered immensely and was on the verge of collapsing.
Her bruised lips quivered as she looked up at Song Minghui’s vicious gaze. She explained in a low voice, “It’s true. Fifth Sister hit me first! The situation was so chaotic at that time, so what evidence does she have to claim that I did it?!
Why couldn’t Fifth Sister have been the one who did it?
“At that time, she was the person closest to Second Sister-in-law! You can’t push the blame to me just because you two are close!”
Whether it was Song Mingmin or Song Xiao, they were both familiar with playing the blame game.
Before Song Minghui could speak, Lu Ze, who had followed him out, smiled. “The person who identified the pusher was my wife! Do you mean that my wife slandered you?”
“You…” Song Minggui wanted to shout, “Who do you think you are? How dare you interfere in Marquis Beining’s ministry’s matters?” However, when she looked up and was glared at by Lu Ze, she immediately cowered and was frightened into lowering her voice. “But she was so far away, so your wife might not have seen it clearly.”
“Since you have doubts about this matter and are dissatisfied with my wife, I naturally have to investigate this matter!” Lu Ze ignored Song Minghui and instructed Su Qi, who had followed him out, “Bring everyone involved back to the Imperial City’s Government Office!”
Lu Ze paused, but then he seemed to have thought of something. He raised his hand and pointed at Song Xiao, who was stunned by the sudden change in situation. “Take her and all those people in her courtyard away!”
I want to see who can play tricks under my nose!”
Lu Ze’s intervention was too sudden.
When the women outside began to scream and resist, Song Minghui finally realized the seriousness of the problem. He quickly turned around and looked at Lu Ze to plead for mercy for his fifth sister, who was about to be taken away. Unexpectedly, before he could say anything, Lu Ze interrupted him mercilessly, “I know what you want to say, but since we’re going to investigate this matter, it’s best to investigate it thoroughly. Don’t you think so?”
“I also think his decision is brilliant!” Pei Qian walked over and stood beside Lu Ze. “After all, even if you bring these people back to the Marquis’ Estate, you won’t be able to find out anything!
It’s better to hand them over to Erlang. This way, things will be easier for you, right?”
Since Pei Qian had spoken, there was naturally no room for negotiation. Song Minghui seemed to have thought of something and stopped insisting. He watched as a group of black-clothed guards came over and brought everyone out of Cold Mountain Temple.
They had come here to relax, but because of this matter, they lost interest.
Song Minghui naturally had to protect Madam Song Zhou and let her return safely. However, Lu Ze had just arranged for the girls around Madam Song Zhou to be taken away. In addition, the carriage Song Minghui came in this time wasn’t suitable for Madam Song Zhou to recuperate. In the end, Lin Suisui suggested that Madam Song Zhou get into her carriage and be taken care of by Bai Guo and Yin Qiao as they returned to the city.
Even if Su Le kept an eye on those people in Marquis Beining’s ministry, the truth couldn’t be hidden. When Song Minghui returned to Marquis Beining’s ministry in the southeast of Cloud Mountain City, the entire Marquis Beining’s ministry was already in chaos.
As if he had expected this, Song Minghui begged Zhou Hengchang to send Madam Song Zhou to the Zhou family’s courtyard in Cloud Mountain City.
Before Zhou Hengchang could speak, Pei Qian gave another suggestion. After all, even Zhou Hengchang himself was living in his house now and since his wife still needed someone to take care of her body, it was better to move into the residence.
Therefore, in the end, even though Song Minghui still had some concerns about Lu Ze, he couldn’t help but agree to this arrangement.
After settling Madam Song Zhou down, Song Minghui turned around and returned to Marquis Beining’s ministry. Just as he dismounted at the door, the people from Marquis Beining’s ministry, who had received the news, rushed out of the door to welcome him.
“Ah Hui, why are you alone?” Mrs. Song, who was holding the hand of the nanny beside her, was the first to speak. Her eyes were filled with panic as she asked, “Where’s your fifth sister? And your wife? What’s going on?!”
“Unfilial son, how dare you come back?!” Marquis Beining’s attitude was much worse. As soon as he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at Song Minghui’s nose as he scolded, “Your sister-in-law and sixth sister were brought to the Imperial City’s government office. You actually came back alone without bringing anyone to save them?!
You’re my son, yet you’re such a coward?!
“By the way, where’s your wife? If she hadn’t made a fuss about praying, would so many things have happened today?! You guys really disappointed me!”
“Father, Mother, before you criticize me, shouldn’t you ask about what happened first?” Although Song Minghui knew what he would face when he returned, he still felt waves of exhaustion.
At this moment, he more or less understood why his wife wanted to divorce him.
Staying in such a family for even another day was disgusting!
“Isn’t it just an argument between women? Speaking of which, it’s also your mother’s fault for spoiling her. She never does anything meaningful and only knows how to bully her sister every day!”
Marquis Beining replied to Song Minghui’s question without any hesitation.
Wasn’t that matter-of-fact? Did he need to ask more?
“Sixth Sister pushed Ning Qian and caused her to fall and almost have a miscarriage! If not for Mr. Gu’s wife’s help, you would have seen Ning Qian and her child’s corpses!
Sixth Sister slandered Madam Gu without even knowing about the situation. That angered Mr. Gu, who brought them all to the Imperial City’s government office for an interrogation!
“Father, Mother, Mr. Gu also said that if they confirm that everything is a misunderstanding after the investigation, he will personally come to apologize to the two of you! But shouldn’t the two of you think about it carefully? Is Sixth Sister really innocent?”
