The Story of Pearl Girl 珠帘玉幕 Episode 38

With Cui Shijiu's efforts, Zheng Zhiheng finally entered the Zheng family tree. Cui Shijiu carefully placed his tablet. After putting down a worry, Cui Shijiu wanted Zheng Shiyuan to pay the price. She begged the second and third brothers of the Zheng family with tears in her eyes to let them go to the Jewelry Pavilion to take charge of the overall situation. Now that Zheng Shiyuan's whereabouts are unknown, someone needs to take charge as soon as possible. Although the second and third brothers of the Zheng family did not agree on the surface, everyone wanted to divide the fat meat of the Jewelry Pavilion. Hearing that Cui Shijiu wanted Yu Xiaoniang to move away and live in seclusion, the two brothers of the Zheng family hurriedly agreed.

When Cui Shijiu came to Yu Xiaoniang's house, he found that Yu Xiaoniang had hanged herself. Fortunately, he came in time. Before Zheng Zhiheng died, he asked Cui Shijiu to take good care of his mother. Cui Shijiu would of course do his best. In order to let Yu Xiaoniang avoid danger, she took Yu Xiaoniang directly to live in Zhenlang Pavilion.

In order to give Yu Xiaoniang the courage to cheer up, Cui Shijiu deliberately angered her, saying that now Zhenlang Pavilion belonged to her alone, and if she married in the future, Zhenlang Pavilion would be her dowry. Yu Xiaoniang was of course unwilling, and she would not let Cui Shijiu succeed even if she died, so she had the strength to live again.

Zheng Shiyuan hid at the King of Ying and did not go out of the door. In order to lure the snake out of the hole, Yan Zijing deliberately spread the word that if Zheng Shiyuan did not show up again, he would destroy the blood bead with his own hands. Of course, the King of Ying would not let the blood bead have any accidents, so he and Yuchi Wuyi drove Zheng Shiyuan to Mingjingtai together.

Zheng Shiyuan knew that there was danger, but now the King of Ying could not tolerate him, so he had to bite the bullet and go to Mingjingtai. Duanwu was waiting for him to fall into the trap. Now that he had a lot of evidence of Zheng Shiyuan's evil deeds, he exposed Zheng Shiyuan's true face in public. After hearing the crimes listed by Duanwu, Zheng Shiyuan was bullying the market, everyone talked about it. But when Duanwu exposed that Zheng Shiyuan pocketed the annual membership fees paid by the merchant, they were all indignant. The account books were all their hard-earned money, and Zheng Shiyuan deliberately said that it was Duanwu who slandered her and said that she forged the accounts.

Cui Shijiu stepped forward and testified that Zheng Shiyuan had been embezzling membership fees for the past three years, accepting bribes and giving bribes privately every year, including giving gifts to King Ying. Cui Shijiu even said the specific dates without a single leak, and testified that over the years, Zhubaozhai has always had two account books. Zheng Shiyuan was heartbroken. Cui Shijiu also had an account book that was exactly the same as Duanwu's. He was speechless. With the witnesses and evidence, Zhang Jinran immediately put Zheng Shiyuan in jail.

Duanwu was very grateful to Cui Shijiu. The account book in her hand was given to her by Cui Shijiu. The two of them had a drink together that night, and all the past was forgotten.

The King of Ying went to ask for the person. He was afraid that Zheng Shiyuan would reveal their transactions over the years, but Zhang Jinran was no longer his retainer. With the imperial edict, the King of Ying could not take him away by force. Zhang Jinran saw the concerns of the King of Ying. Now he finally confirmed that the King of Ying, whom he had always regarded as a brother, had done so many dirty things behind his back. He immediately broke off the relationship with the King of Ying.

Zhang Jinran interrogated Zheng Shiyuan overnight, but Zheng Shiyuan refused to confess. It was no use to continue the stalemate. Zhang Jinran deliberately released Zheng Shiyuan from prison and said that Zheng Shiyuan had confessed.

Cui Shijiu was surprised to hear that Zheng Shiyuan was released. She was about to tie Zheng Shiyuan back, but suddenly she thought that this might be Zhang Jinran's plan, and the purpose was to take advantage of the situation. Thinking of this, she felt relieved, so she asked her men to sneak into the Zheng family and pay close attention to the Zheng family's every move.

When Cui Shijiu was instructing his men to act, Yu Xiaoniang heard it. She took advantage of the maid's carelessness and sneaked into the Zheng family to seek revenge on Zheng Shiyuan, but Yu Xiaoniang was no match for Zheng Shiyuan. Zheng Shiyuan snatched the dagger from her hand, and at this time Cui Shijiu came.
