Chapter 287
Gu Zezhi didn’t stay any longer, he curtsied and said, “Your Majesty, since you still have something on your side, I’ll take my leave first.”
The emperor waved his hand and Gu Zezhi left the imperial study, leaving behind all the hustle and bustle in the palace at the back of his mind.
On this day, there was an uproar in the capital, from the honorable courtiers to the common people, they were talking about the separation of the loyal and righteous house of Marquis Qin, turning everyone’s sympathetic looks to the head of the Marquis fu.
Gossip also started to spread, talking about how pitiful the eldest house was and how his legitimate heir was robbed of the title that his son should have inherited, how his eldest son, Qin Zening was suppressed by his uncle and was now kicked out from the fu.
While others said that the Old Marquis intended to pass on the title to his eldest grandson but since he died suddenly, and Qin Zening was too young so the title fell to Qin Zhun.
And some sighed as they lament how Qin Zhun’s mind was too narrow, and couldn’t even accommodate his nephew making him incapable of becoming a greater person.
……..
…
Qin Zhun, of course, has heard about these discussions outside and this has already beaten him black and blue. He cursed Qin Jiu and Qin Zening to death and couldn’t wait to drive the brothers and sister out of the marquis’s mansion at once.
He locked himself up in the study alone for a long time, until an old servant came and said, “Marquis, the fourth miss was sent back by Yanbai’s people.”
Qin Zhun, who had been walking back and forth with his hands behind his back, stopped and looked at her with a piercing gaze.
The old servant lowered her head a little more, she really had no choice but to report this matter to the marquis even though she knew he was in a bad mood today.
“Pak!”
Qin Zhun slapped the table next to him with his palm causing the books, teacups, brushes, ink, paper, inkstone, and other things on the table to shake.
The more Qin Zhun thought about it the angrier he was, he grabs the teacup and slammed it heavily on the mirror-like bluestone brick floor causing the porcelain to break into pieces, and frightening the old servant, shrinking her back in fright.
“Shameless!”
Qin Zhun gnashed his teeth and angrily scolded, with a raging anger in his heart: if it wasn’t because he helped the Su family this time how could things have turned out like this!
Thinking about the 70% of the property, Qin Jun’s heart starts dripping blood once again.
And yet this Su family not only didn’t make amends to him, but they were so merciless and clearly blaming him instead! Hmph, at least Su Xiyang was sentenced to imprisonment for one year, he asked for it, so what does it have to do with him!
The same goes for Qin Sheng, her surname was Qin and not Su but she went running to live there for a long time, and now that the Qin family was being criticized by people behind their backs?! She just let herself get driven back now!

Qin Zhun also took his anger at Qin Sheng, brushing his sleeves he angrily said, “Go and tell the fourth miss that since she is back, she should stay in her own yard and don’t go out if she has nothing to do!”
This was also the same as telling her that she was grounded.
The old servant bowed her head and answered yes.
She was about to retreat when she heard Qin Zhun stop her again, “Wait.”
Qin Zhun’s complexion was overcast with uncertainty as he said, “Also, let someone tell the madam to give all the deeds of the servants serving in the eldest house to Zening.”
The majority of the servants in the Marquis were born in the fu and were just family members, with intertwined relationships, and more or less close or distant relatives to each other. He gave the servants used by the eldest house, but the family members of these servants were still living in his residence, which means even if the eldest house moved out of the Marquis, they were still under his nose and could not fly out of his palm.
Thinking about it, Qin Zhun’s depressed emotions slightly relaxed as he waved his hand to let the woman go to work.
The servant serving in the studly quickly served Qin Zhun a new tea and cleaned up all the broken porcelain on the floor nimbly.
Qin Zhun soon gradually calmed down as he drank his newly brewed tea. He had just finished a cup of hot tea when the old servant from earlier came back, and looking at her face, the news she had was not good, she tremblingly reported, “Marquis, the third miss said… said, she and her eldest brother together with her fifth brother have been living in the marquis mansion for so many years, and now that they have separated, of course, they can’t take the ‘things’ of the marquis fu.”
“The third miss said that she doesn’t want those deeds.”
Qin Jiu does not want the deeds of his servants, she does not want marquis’ underlings!
Qin Zhun: “!!!”
The corners of Qin Zhun’s eyes twitched as blood rushes to his forehead.
Qin Jiu, this thick-skinned wild girl has the nerve to say that the eldest house doesn’t want anything from the marquis’ mansion since she didn’t ask for it, then if she really doesn’t want anything to do with the marquis mansion she should have also returned the properties they split ah!
Every time Qin Zhun thought of the 70% properties, he had difficulty breathing and had a hard time calming down as the veins in his neck pulsates and his chest heaved violently and felt stuffy.
This Qin Jiu was simply too annoying!
Qin Zhun could no longer sit still, he abruptly stood up from the chair as his anger intensifies and once again walks back and forth in his study room.
He was really unwilling to let go of the eldest house just like that!
And thus, that night in the Qin family’s mansion Qin Zhun’s room was brightly lit up as he stayed up all night, and never went to sleep.
