Selling wife for fame? Kick out the scumbag and marry the new emperor to enjoy the harem of favors

Chapter 24 Why Don’t You Want to Help!
Hearing Chunrong's words, Wu Qingchan, who had just entered the yard, immediately raised her eyebrows.

"How dare you, a liar, speak to me like that? Do you have any respect for hierarchy? I won't tolerate your insolence here!"

"Young lady, you barged into my eldest sister's yard like this, and you even called her by her last name. How disrespectful! Do you think you know the rules?" Chun Rong looked at her coldly. "If you want to talk about being presumptuous, it's not me, the servant, who is being presumptuous."

Wu Qingchan was criticized and became anxious and angry, and was about to curse.

But Chunrong didn't give her a chance. She glanced at the maids in the courtyard and said sternly, "Why don't you make a move? Don't you want to serve the Madam anymore? That's perfect. I'll send you to follow the young lady today so you don't get in the way here!"

These words reminded these people that the Marquis had been thrown into prison for the serious crime of corruption, and when the sentencing came, Wu Qingchan would be the one who would be most unable to escape and would be implicated.

On the contrary, it was Xie Jiu. Firstly, her father was the Prime Minister, a high-ranking official in the dynasty, so it was not too difficult for him to keep his daughter. Secondly, who didn't know about Xie Jiu's affair with the man in the palace?
It seems that although Wu Qingchan is clamoring now, she is actually here to beg for mercy, which shows which side can be offended and which side cannot be offended.

Once you have figured it out in your mind, you will act decisively.

They immediately rushed forward, pushing Wu Qingchan and her maid out.

Chunrong saw that the courtyard was quiet before she spoke again, "Miss, please think carefully about what attitude you should take when asking for help. The Marquis didn't think clearly yesterday, which led to your imprisonment today. Miss, don't make the wrong decision. Madam needs to rest, so come back when you have thought it through."

After saying this, he turned around and went into the house.

He also closed the door.

Wu Qingchan was really furious after being humiliated in her own mansion.

But Chunrong's words shocked her again.

She was extremely scared because her brother Wu Que was not around. She had rushed over just now, relying solely on her anger. Now that she had been dampened by a few blows, she was scared.

After all, he is young and hasn't experienced much in his daily life, so he is actually an easy person to deal with.

So at this moment, Xie Jiu in the room didn't care about Wu Qingchan at all. He was being served by Qingfang and lay down to rest.

Anyway, she is not in a hurry. If there is anything, she will deal with it after she has had enough sleep.

When I woke up, it was already dusk.

As Qingfang helped Xie Jiu get up, she whispered, "Madam, the eldest lady is waiting to see you outside."

"How long has it been?" Xie Jiu lowered his eyes and spoke in a light tone.

"About two incense sticks of time." Qingfang handed over a handkerchief to wipe her face. "Chunrong was kicked out earlier, but she came back a while later. This time she's more disciplined."

Xie Jiu took the handkerchief and said, "In that case, let's meet."

Qingfang nodded and tidied her clothes and hair neatly.

When Xie Jiu came out of the house, he saw that Wu Qingchan was already getting restless.

He looked anxious and irritable, looking into the inner room from time to time.

Seeing Xie Jiu finally come out, he immediately jumped up from his chair.

Just as he was about to speak directly, he opened his mouth, but held it back and bowed first, "Sister-in-law."

There are indeed a lot of rules.

"Please sit down." Xie Jiu waved his hand and sat down himself. "Bring tea."

Chunrong at the side responded and immediately brought two cups of tea.

However, Wu Qingchan didn't have the leisure to drink tea. She looked anxious, pursed her lips, and waited for Xie Jiu to take a sip of tea before she hurriedly spoke.

"Sister-in-law, I was ignorant before. I apologize to you here. Please don't hold it against me." "You are young and you are a little impatient when encountering things. I naturally don't blame you." Xie Jiu put down the teacup and smiled.

She really looks like a gentle elder sister-in-law.

However, Wu Qingchan had long been disgusted with her, and her current obedience was forced by the situation, so naturally she did not think that Xie Jiu was really gentle. She only felt that Xie Jiu was more hypocritical, and her disgust in her heart increased a little bit.

But he didn't dare show it on his face and just went along with it.

"Sister-in-law, you are very generous. I know that. I lost my temper today because my brother was imprisoned. I was anxious for a moment. Now I come to you to ask you to save my brother's life. As the saying goes, a husband and wife for a day is a hundred days of grace, and a marriage for a lifetime takes a hundred years to cultivate. After all, it is a different kind of love."

"You don't have to tell me this."

Xie Jiu couldn't bear to listen any longer.

She had been killed by Wu Que once, and all her feelings for him had been wiped out. Moreover, she had never had any romantic feelings for Wu Que in the first place, and now there was only hatred between them.

Wu Qingchan choked and felt a little angry, but she didn't dare to express it, and her face turned red.

"Your brother was imprisoned by the Ministry of Justice at the personal order of the Emperor in front of all the civil and military officials. He committed the serious crime of embezzling military funds. It's not easy to save him." Xie Jiu said calmly.

Upon hearing this, a hint of displeasure flashed across Wu Qingchan's face, but she did not lose her temper. Instead, she forced a slightly stiff smile.

"I know this isn't easy, but the only person I can see who can speak to the Emperor is my sister-in-law. I have no choice but to shamelessly ask her for help."

Xie Jiu lowered his eyes, his face cold, "You haven't committed any crime, so why would you ask me for help? Your brother was very stubborn yesterday. I kindly reminded him a long time ago, but he didn't take it seriously. Now it's too late. How can I influence the emperor's decision?"

This is not a lie.

Xie Jiu also didn't want Wu Que to die so easily. Death would be so easy. She wanted Wu Que to live, a life worse than death.

But if Zhao Xingjin wanted to kill Wu Que immediately, Xie Jiu would not force him to do so.

Wu Qingchan looked at her indifferent expression, as if she were a superior, and the anger in her heart grew little by little.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Sister-in-law, I admit all my mistakes. If you can save the person, I will also let my brother apologize to you."

Although she said nice things, the hatred in her eyes betrayed her.

Xie Jiu saw it clearly and was too lazy to have any more meaningless conversation with her, so he just said, "You go back first."

But it was this one sentence that made Wu Qingchan lose her composure instantly.

"You are in the Emperor's good graces. If you just say a few good words to the Emperor, he will definitely let my brother go. For you, it's just a matter of saying it. I've already come to you to beg you, why won't you help us? How can there be such a heartless and ungrateful person like you in this world!"

Originally, Xie Jiu didn't want to talk much with her because he felt that she was not involved in the conspiracy between Wu Que and Xie Mingshen, and was not an enemy to Xie Jiu.

Although he did make some rude remarks, from Wu Qingchan's perspective, it was understandable that his brother was cuckolded and cursed in the heat of the moment.

However, what Wu Qingchan said at this moment actually made Xie Jiu angry.

Now in the eyes of outsiders, she is Zhao Xingjin's new favorite who cannot be seen in public, but Wu Qingchan still asks her to plead for another man in front of Zhao Xingjin.

This man is still her nominal husband.

Why didn’t Wu Qingchan think about whether her actions would displease Zhao Xingjin?
Of course, Wu Qingchan would definitely not think about Xie Jiu. Her tone made it very clear that since I have begged you so humbly, you should agree immediately and do your best to help. If Xie Jiu refuses, it would be an unforgivable crime.

"Is it just a matter of talking?" Xie Jiu narrowed his eyes, his face cold. "Why don't I take you to the palace right now? Seeing how light-hearted you are, I'm sure you can say a few words to the emperor and it will work. Why bother begging me?"
