Planning to marry the third master

It was dark, and Xie Yunxiao brought a cinnabar bracelet and asked Feng Zhuohua to wear it. Feng Zhuohua was puzzled and asked, "Why do you ask me to wear this?"

Although Xie Yunxiao did not believe in feng shui, he still had to listen to some unlucky things about coffins and funerals. He put it on Feng Zhuohua and said simply, "To ward off evil spirits."

What happened in the past few days was indeed weird, so Feng Zhuohua just let Xie Yunxiao go.

Qingyue prepared the package and asked, "Are you leaving early tomorrow morning?"

Xie Yunxiao then remembered that he still had to deal with Qingyue, and said, "I remember your hometown is in Longnan. You are not young anymore. I will find a husband for you."

Qingyue understood that Third Master Xie was going to leave her behind, so she walked to Feng Zhuohua and said, "I belong to the Madam in life and I will belong to the Madam in death."

snort! I'm so mad at you!

As expected, Xie Yunxiao's eyes darkened and he said, "I'll pay for the dowry."

"I want your dowry." She was not a servant brought up by the Xie family, so no one would say anything to her even if she spoke unreasonably.

Feng Zhuohua took Qingyue's hand and said, "Are you sure? If you miss this opportunity, there will be no such store." Xie Yunxiao was rarely generous.

Qing Yue was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Feng Zhuohua said: "That day, the enchanting person came to see you, and I heard a little bit of what he said. Since we are destined to be together, why do you reject him so much?"

Xie Yunxiao looked at the two people holding hands, feeling awkward, and quickly asked: "With whom?"

Qingyue covered Feng Zhuohua's mouth, and Feng Zhuohua had already opened his mouth to say, "Chen Jiangting."

The two words "Jiang Ting" were covered at the end so that Xie Yunxiao could hear it clearly.

Xie Yunxiao turned around and left. There was nothing more urgent than sending Qingyue away.

He was not afraid of anything else, but he was afraid that she would lead Feng Zhuohua astray. He felt uncomfortable all over when standing next to Feng Zhuohua.

How could Qingyue let Xie Yunxiao talk nonsense, so she hurried to catch up.

But when she reached the door, Xie Yunxiao asked someone to stop her. She got anxious and started fighting with the second-rate master beside Xie Yunxiao, so she didn't catch up.

Chen Jiangting was almost asleep. When he heard that Mr. Xie Sanye was coming, he was surprised and quickly put on a thin coat to greet the guest.

Seeing Chen Jiangting go straight to the point, Xie Yunxiao took out all the banknotes in his arms without even looking at them, and said, "Qingyue's dowry!"

This action confused Chen Jiangting, and he said, "You give her the dowry, why do you do it to me?"

Xie Yunxiao said: "She is not a member of my Xie family, how can I accept her."

Although he could say that, Chen Jiangting was still a little confused and asked, "Did she tell you anything?"

Xie Yunxiao had no idea about Qingyue's private affairs, so he made up a story: "She was talking to a woman named Yaorao, and my wife heard it, so she naturally wanted to give her a good home. I know you well, so naturally I came to tell you about this."

Chen Jiangting curved his lips. Just from Xie Yunxiao's action, he could imagine what the two of them had said. He said, "Then I will accept the dowry for her."

"That's great. I'm leaving tomorrow and you take her with you. Don't let her follow me."

Chen Jiangting was puzzled by this attitude. It was obvious that he didn't like Qingyue. Since he didn't like her and thought that Qingyue had nowhere to go that day, he agreed and said, "Okay."

With just a few words, Xie Yunxiao decided Qingyue's destination, left the banknote, and left.

Chen Jiangting took a look at the silver bills on the table, picked them up and counted them. There were nearly ten thousand taels. This dowry was more valuable than other young ladies. He put it away, turned around and went to sleep.

Not long after, Qingyue came in breathlessly, also looking for Chen Jiangting, but did not see Mr. Xie Sanye.

Chen Jiangting came out again and saw Qingyue. He said, "Why are you here so late? Do you have something to talk to me about?"

Qingyue asked, "Has the Third Master been here?"

Chen Jiangting nodded and said, "I have been here."

Qing Yue quickly said: "Don't take what the Third Master said seriously. It doesn't count. I didn't mean that."

Chen Jiangting asked with a smile: "What does that mean?"

Qing Yue said: "It's meaningless. It's not interesting to you anyway."

Chen Jiangting stopped laughing and said, "No, you are mine now. He gave you a dowry of 10,000 taels. If you don't want it, then the 10,000 taels will be given to me for nothing, and I will not return it to you."

"Ten thousand taels?" Qingyue was surprised. Third Master Xie was really generous. She had worked so hard for several years and only got this much money.

Chen Jiangting found a seat and said, "There is no place for you in the Xie family, why are you following me?"

Chen Jiangting's words made Qingyue feel extremely lost. She was like a floating duckweed, with no place to live and no family. Now she was despised by others, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.

Chen Jiangting said: "I won't force you. Just treat your stay with me as a place to stay."

These words are a man's pity for a woman and have nothing to do with love.

Qingyue's eyes turned red. The Third Master was really going too far. But it was only ten thousand taels, which was quite generous.

Chen Jiangting said, "From today on, you will live here with me. I will have someone to serve you and I will not restrict you. You can do whatever you want. If you are like Yaorao, I will not restrict you."

Qingyue looked at Chen Jiangting and said, "What are you doing? I'm just an outsider."

Chen Jiangting sighed, then stepped forward and tentatively approached Qingyue. Seeing that she did not resist, he hugged her close and said, "From now on, we will be family. If you follow me, I will not treat you unfairly, and no one will bully you."

Qingyue has a weak spot. The word "family" makes her break down and she hugs Chen Jiangting and cries bitterly.

That day, Qing Yue never returned to Feng Zhuohua.

Until he left the next day, Feng Zhuohua did not see Qingyue appear.

After leaving Longnan, Hu Cong was waiting in a carriage. Xie Xinyu almost jumped on Feng Zhuohua. "Mom!" She said so crisply that one could tell that he had been missing her for a long time.

Xie Yunxiao hugged her and said, "Your mother is pregnant, don't be reckless." After the warning, he put her down again. Xie Xinyu was a little slower. Feng Zhuohua hugged her gently and said, "Mom misses you too."

"Is mom's illness healed?"

"Okay, you see, mom is fine now."

Hu Cong glanced at Xie Yunxiao, Xie Yunxiao nodded, and the carriage started moving.

The team was light, with only two carriages and two guards. Lu Chengfeng was in Longnan on business and did not follow.

When Lin Feng found Yang Ji, he was already a corpse. He couldn't help but feel that the sky had fallen. It was the end of Prince Hui's sky, and he returned to Bian Jing again.

Chao Yi, who arrived in Bian Jing on a fast horse, immediately entered the palace. It was afternoon, not long after the court session ended. When Gu Xingyan heard that Chao Yi had arrived, he thought that Xie Yunxiao had returned to Beijing, so he immediately invited him into the study.

As soon as Chao Yiyi entered the palace, he knelt in front of the study and cried, "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for the Third Master!"

Gu Xingyan was stunned and asked, "Where is General Qilin? Has he returned to the capital?"

Chao Yidao: "General's wife, the wife, she is gone!"

"What! Tell me clearly, why is the person gone?"

"Yang Ji first went to Miaojiang to find someone to plant poisonous insects for Madam."

"Growing Gu? What is this?"

"Gu worms are a secret technique of the Miao region, which can control people and make them obedient. The emperor cannot hear of such secret and evil techniques in Bianjing. Our people really saw the lady, but she didn't look like a human. She was like a puppet, and she didn't even feel the basic pain. Hu Cong found the lady first, but Yang Ji said he adopted her as his adopted daughter and refused to let her go until the Third Master personally found her. Yang Ji then let her go. However, the Third Master had only been guarding the lady for less than two days when Yang Ji used the Gu worm to control the lady to commit suicide."

"What!" Gu Xingyan was furious when he thought that Feng Zhuohua was so young and capable, and that she was dead. He said, "How dare Yang Ji!"

He kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, please make the decision for the general. You can't bully people like this."

"Where are the others?"

"When Chao Yi arrived, the Third Master had gone to chase the murderer. At this moment, Chao Yi didn't know where the Third Master had gone."

Gu Xingyan was in a complete headache and felt completely confused.

Hurry up and ask someone to invite the Minister of Personnel.

Then he told Chao Yi to go back and tell him to go see his father about this matter.

When the emperor heard what Gu Xingyan said, he didn't have as many emotions as Gu Xingyan. He just frowned and said, "You can't just listen to what one person says. If something big happens, you have to look at the reports from local officials."

He didn't believe that General Qilin was a man who did nothing.

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager and the Queen were as indignant as Gu Xingyan. The Empress Dowager slammed the table and said, "Does Yang Ji still have any respect for the law?"

Xu Xinru's eyes turned red, and she said, "What a good person she was. She taught me a lot. How could she encounter such a terrible thing and die so miserably?"

When Chao Yi returned to the general's residence, Shuang Xi asked with a big belly: "Where is my sister? Has my sister come back?"

He shook his head with a depressed look, not daring to tell the truth to the pregnant Shuangxi, and said, "I'm tired. I'll talk to you when the Third Master comes back."

"Okay, go to bed early and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Five days later, a group of people returned to Beijing with crying souls. Including Yang Zhan, who only had one head, there were three coffins in total.

It was unprecedented to go to the capital to file a complaint with such a large entourage. Gu Xinghui met Lin Feng at the city gate because he had reported it in advance, and then brought the Yang family into the palace.

The matter turned around, and Yang Ji's death was caused by Xie Sanye. Gu Xingyan summoned Chao Yi to question him again.

Mangqi and Chaoyi each had their own reasons, pointing fingers and blaming each other, which made Gu Xingyan very confused.

The Ministry of Justice was called immediately.

Just at this time, local officials submitted memorials to the emperor, and several officials from the Ministry of Revenue working in Longnan jointly wrote a letter, all of which pointed out that Yang Ji had gone too far.

The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice brought the men to the Ministry of Justice for questioning that very day.
