Liu Wanshan waited outside the Yong'an Hou Mansion for about two quarters of an hour. From a distance, I saw Xiao Ming coming on horseback. Behind Xiao Ming, there were a large number of soldiers. Xiao Ming arrived in front of Yong'an Hou's Mansion, got off his horse, waved to Liu Wanshan, and then walked towards Yong'an Hou's Mansion.
"In the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, everyone stopped." The guard at the door stepped forward to stop Xiao Ming. Xiao Ming did not stop. The soldiers behind him swarmed up and controlled the guards in front of the Hou Mansion. Xiao Ming entered the Hou Mansion unimpeded. Liu Wanshan looked at Xiao Ming's behavior in surprise. Although he was a little uneasy, he still followed in.
The commotion at the door of the mansion alerted the guards inside, and Captain Sun led his men to stand in front of Xiao Ming. Each guard put his hand on the scabbard, ready to fight at any time.
"I didn't know that Mr. Xiao arrived, and I missed him from afar. I hope you'll forgive me. I don't know why Mr. Xiao came here?" Butler He hurried over. The guards didn't know Xiao Ming, but Butler He knew him. Housekeeper He didn't dare to neglect this dandy.
"The scenery in the Hou Mansion is truly unique. No wonder my fiancée couldn't leave as soon as she entered the Hou Mansion." Xiao Ming looked at the furnishings in the Hou Mansion and said in a strange tone.
"The furnishings in the mansion are all made by the lady, and they are indeed unique. But who is the fiancée that Mr. Xiao mentioned?" Butler He's face was full of doubts. He had not heard that other women had entered the Hou's mansion.
"My young master's fiancée is Liu Yunqing, the legitimate daughter of the Liu family." Xiao Ming looked at Butler He and said word by word. Especially the word "Liu Yunqing" bites very hard.
"Mr. Xiao, must you have made a mistake? Miss Liu is the wife of the Hou Mansion, how could she be Mr. Xiao's fiancée? Mr. Xiao, you cannot make such a joke." The surprise on Butler He's face flashed away, and his smile also disappeared. He completely put it away and turned to a serious face. This matter related to the majesty of the Marquis, and he did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
"Yes or no, please invite Miss Liu out and you will know once you ask. I have also invited the head of the Liu family, so I will make the matter clear. "Xiao Ming is so confident that he wants Butler He to invite Liu Yunqing out. Liu Wanshan didn't know the reason why Xiao Ming called him over until now. However, Liu Wanshan couldn't figure out how Liu Yunqing became the wife of the Hou Mansion in just a few days.
Seeing how confident Xiao Ming was, Butler He was a little worried. After all, Xia Jingyao had not personally acknowledged Liu Yunqing's identity. If a mistake is made, the Hou Mansion will lose face, and may also be made difficult by the County Sheriff's Mansion. Now that Xia Jingyao was not in the house, Butler He was in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.
"The Marquis has made many military exploits on the border, and has been favored by the Lord, and has been granted the title of Marquis of Yong'an. Young Master Xiao came today with soldiers, broke into the Marquis's Mansion without permission, and despised the Lord. Do you think the Xiao family wants to rebel? Young Master Xiao is a commoner, but To be able to mobilize so many soldiers, is it because the county guard is not strict with his subordinates, or is it because they are all private soldiers of your Xiao family and are not subject to the control of the emperor and the court." Liu Yunqing, who received the news, hurried over and said to Xiao Ming for a while Verbal questioning.
After hearing Liu Yunqing's words, the expression of the officer following Xiao Ming changed again and again. Rebellion and private soldiers are all serious crimes that will destroy the nine tribes. Liu Yunqing will destroy the Manchus as soon as he speaks out.
"Liu Yunqing, I didn't expect you to be so sharp-tongued. It seems that I have underestimated you. I only liked your beauty before, but I didn't expect you to have surprises. Now I can't stop. The Xiao family is loyal to your Majesty. Geng Geng is a lesson to be learned from heaven and earth. Today I broke into the Marquis Mansion without permission, just because of a moment of impatience. After returning home, I asked my father to write a letter to plead guilty. I believe that with your sage, you will understand. As for these soldiers, my father is also worried that some evil people will do something to me. Unfortunately, they were sent to protect me. How could I, a commoner, mobilize them?" After Xiao Ming was briefly stunned, he immediately vindicated himself and the Xiao family.
"Qing'er, is it really you? Daddy, it was so hard to find you. Daddy thought he would never see you again. Although you escaped from marriage, Mr. Xiao still has not changed his original intention for you. Now I have found you. , I can just choose an auspicious day for you to get married." At this time, Liu Wanshan came to Liu Yunqing with tears streaming down his face. Now that the Liu family is completely dependent on the county governor's mansion, Liu Wanshan will of course follow Xiao Ming's wishes.
Liu Wanshan's words undoubtedly confirmed Xiao Ming's words. Everyone in the Hou Mansion looked at Liu Yunqing, waiting for Liu Yunqing's rebuttal.
"Qing'er, I've met my father. I haven't seen you for a few days, and my father's style has become even more prosperous. He must be living a very comfortable life. But I don't know, my father used Fei'er to exchange Yu'er for a higher-ranking official. Is my father still satisfied? Xiao Xiao The young master coveted Yun Qing's appearance. He not only molested Yun Qing in public, but also forcibly married Yun Qing. Yun Qing just didn't want to be humiliated and chose to escape. What's wrong with that? Besides, she was hired by the county governor and married by the Liu family. It’s a completed matter, so what does it have to do with Yun Qing? The fiancée that Mr. Xiao said had already married into the county governor’s mansion, and now she comes to the marquis’ mansion to look for her. Does she really think that the marquis is easy to bully? "Liu Yunqing did not rush or panic, and kept the matter simple. Speak it clearly.
Liu Yunqing was very organized and explained the ins and outs of the matter concisely and clearly. At the same time, Liu Wanshan and Xiao Ming were also mocked. Liu Wanshan's face turned red with anger, but he didn't know how to refute.
"She is eloquent and eloquent, which is really an eye-opener for me. As far as I know, Miss Liu has never left Fuchang County since she was a child, and Miss Liu and Marquis Yong'an have no intersection." . Then how did Miss Liu become the fiancée of Lord Marquis? Does Miss Liu know what is the crime of pretending to be an official's family member, and what is the crime of pretending to be Mrs. Hou? Miss Liu is so bold and reckless, she really ignores the laws of the country. "Xiao Ming Looking at Liu Yunqing proudly, this was Liu Yunqing's mistake, an irreparable mistake.
Liu Yunqing was speechless for a moment, originally he just wanted to use this excuse to enter the Hou Mansion. Unexpectedly, Marquis Yongan went out to do business without even seeing anyone. If you make a mistake, you will make a mistake, and this has become the current situation.
"You don't need Young Master Xiao to worry about the affairs of the Hou Mansion. Speaking of which, I have to thank Young Master Xiao. If Young Master Xiao hadn't teased Qing'er in the street, I wouldn't have had the chance to save the beauty. Qing'er has outstanding appearance and is virtuous and kind. De, who keeps the Hou Mansion in order, is the well-deserved mistress of the Yong'an Hou Mansion. I will choose a day to marry Qing'er, and I will definitely invite Mr. Xiao to come for a wedding banquet. "At this moment, Xia Jingyao came from outside He walked in and walked straight to Liu Yunqing's side.
Liu Yunqing looked at Xia Jingyao walking towards him. In addition to surprise, there were countless little stars of love in his eyes. Liu Yunqing didn't expect that the person who saved him during the Ghost Festival would be Xia Jingyao.
