Why was Qiao Zhiyong sent to jail twice?

Qiao Zhiyong was imprisoned twice in his first year. The first time was because Jiang Xueying reported to the court, and the second time was because of military pay.

Jiang Xueying once resented Qiao Zhiyong for breaking up with him and betraying their love by marrying a Miss Lu family. For many years, she had been secretly competing with Qiao Zhiyong in the shopping mall at all costs. At that time, the Taiping Army did not enter Beijing, but they beheaded a man named Liu Heiqi who joined the Taiping Army in public. Liu Heiqi was kind to Qiao Zhiyong, so he secretly took out his body and buried it. But Jiang Xueying found out, and she went to report to the court, and Qiao Zhiyong was thrown into prison.

Jiang Xueying hated him as much as she loved him. After seeing Qiao Zhiyong covered with scars, she couldn't bear it, and discussed with Sun Maocai and Lu Dake how to rescue Qiao Zhiyong. Lu Yuhan raised money to borrow money from everywhere, and after receiving the guarantee of a former acquaintance, Marshal Hu, the court finally agreed to use the money to release Qiao Zhiyong. Later, Lu Da variable sold his property to help Qiao Zhiyong, but it was still not easy to come up with such a large sum of money. In the end, Jiang Xueying secretly helped Qiao Zhiyong pay the life-saving money.

When the war came, the imperial court borrowed money from the Qiao family to go to war, and Qiao Zhiyong agreed and delivered food and grass to them. More than a year and eight months later, Qiao Zhiyong came back, but Sun Maocai, a villain, went to confuse the situation and spoke ill of Qiao Zhiyong. The court believed his slander and refused to return the money borrowed from the Qiao family as agreed.

After that, Qiao Zhiyong went to the capital to beg for money, but was imprisoned. When the Qiao family was in trouble, Sun Maocai took this opportunity to ask the Qiao family for the Qiao family's eldest grandmother. The eldest wife had no choice but to agree to Sun Maocai, and then Qiao Zhiyong was released from prison.
