After three days of torture by Han Ye and others, the final conclusion reached was that Ji Wuxuan was crazy.
From the words in his mouth, it can be basically judged that he bewitched Dong Chengbin to commit suicide. As for the reasons, they are all written in the confessions of Dong Chengbin and Fang Quan.
The matter was already clear. According to His Majesty's instructions, Ji Wuxuan was cut in half on the spot and his family was exiled to the northwest as slaves.
The Prince of Zhennan performed meritorious deeds in exterminating relatives, and received insignificant rewards such as some gold, silver, brocade, and fertile land.
These are not important. What is important is that Emperor Kang Yuan will give up the idea of wiping out the Zhennan Palace for the time being.
The Ji family's position in Nanzhou is deeply rooted. If the king of Zhennan is replaced by another surname, it will inevitably cause turmoil in Nanzhou. Now that Ji Wuxuan is dead, there is no suitable Zhennan King, so he can only let Ji Wuhen continue to be his Zhennan King.
Once the affairs in Nanzhou are settled, we can set off for southern Yunnan.
Before leaving, the group of them went to Zhennan Palace to say goodbye to Ji Wuhen and his son.
Ji Wuhen was reluctant to leave Lu Qingtang and the three babies. They had just met each other and were about to separate. It was really hard to accept for a while. But there isn't much time left for them, and even if they stay longer, it won't last long.
It takes about half a month to set off to southern Yunnan. There are already many people in their group, and with three babies to take with them, the time will be slower. In addition, uncomfortable symptoms such as motion sickness and illness may occur on the road. After arriving in southern Yunnan, it will take a few days to get used to it, and you will almost be able to catch up with the God of Medicine Conference.
Ji Wuhen saw that he could not stop Lu Qingtang, so he said nothing and only asked Ji Wenzhan to follow him so that he could take care of the child. Moreover, he knew where his mother Huarou lived in southern Yunnan, so he could take Lu Qingtang to visit it.
Ji Wuhen also wants to go, but there are many things in the Zhennan Palace and he needs to personally take care of everything, so he can't leave.
Another thing was that he also figured out the real reason why Hua Rou left Zhennan Palace in the past few days.
After Ji's house was raided, Xu Lingshu's maid Jinniang wanted to leave Weinan among her family members, but she didn't want to be recognized by Ji Wenzhan. Ji Wuhen originally wanted to return her to the Xu family. After all, she had served Xu Lingshu and could be considered a member of the Xu family. But Jin Niang didn't want to think that they were going to kill her, so she told how Xu Lingshu designed to frame Hua Rou and forced her to leave the Zhennan Palace in order to survive.
Only then did Ji Wuhen understand the truth behind Hua Rou leaving the palace.
Early that morning, he went out to do errands. Before leaving, he hugged three-year-old Ji Wenzhan and said goodbye to Hua Ju, saying that he would not come back until dark. Hua Rou arranged his clothes as usual, saying she had a surprise for him when he came back in the evening.
What's the secret?
He guessed on the road and couldn't help laughing, looking forward to the surprise when he returned home after dark.
But he didn't want to see Ji Wenzhan, who was in tears, waiting for him when he returned home, and Hua Rou's whereabouts was nowhere to be seen in the whole house. She only left a farewell letter, and it was like she disappeared from the world, never to be seen again.
Is this what you call a surprise?
He didn't feel any joy, all he felt was fright.
This fright has been with him for twenty years, but he didn't expect that his cousin Xu Lingshu, who had been with him for twenty years, turned out to be the culprit who killed his beloved.
After she left the palace, she tricked Hua Rou outside, forced her to drink medicine that would cause her to lose her memory, and then took her out of Nanzhou in a carriage. In this way, she was separated from him forever. No one thought that that morning would be the last time they saw each other.
He lost her forever.
But fate is so wonderful, and blood connection is even more so. He was able to find his biological daughter in the vast sea of people.
This was the surprise Hua Rou said, but this surprise came too late.
The daughter is like a shooting star. She just met him and left him in the blink of an eye.
But that's okay, she couldn't accept it for a while. Maybe after going out for a while and coming back, she could accept him as her father. After all, the harm he had caused her was not small. He was not qualified as a father, and he felt guilty.
Three days later, Ji Wuhen bid farewell to Lu Qingtang and his party at the gate of Weinan City.
Taking turns holding the three babies, Ji Wuhen's heart melted as he listened to them calling him "Grandpa". Tears wet his clothes. He had never been so sad.
Lu Qingtang, who was in front of the carriage, carried the three babies into the carriage with a slight smile on his face, "Father, please go back quickly. It's windy here and my brother and I are not around. You must take care of yourself."
"We will be back in half a year at most. Then I will take the children to stay for a while so that you can enjoy your family happiness."
Ji Wuhen was moved by the word "Father" and he nodded, "Then get in the car quickly. Take care of yourself on the road and don't be too tired."
As he said that, he looked at his son again, "You must protect your sister, and you must also take care of yourself."
Ji Wenzhan nodded, then lowered his head, looking very uncomfortable.
Lu Qingtang felt a little choked up in his throat when he heard what he said.
The simple words revealed his love for his daughter as a father, and she could understand it no matter how cold he was.
She blessed him and then got into the car.
When she got to the car, she opened the curtain and looked back. She didn't lower the curtain until she couldn't see Ji Wuhen.
Turning around, she leaned her head against Mo Zeshen.
Mo Zeshen rubbed her forehead with his straight nose and comforted her in a low voice, "When we come back from southern Yunnan, you can stay as long as you want. I will live with you then."
Lu Qingtang nodded and put his arms around his waist, feeling the warmth on his body.
…
The carriage jolted for half a month and immediately entered the realm of southern Yunnan.
During the half month in the car, everyone looked ugly, and they all looked forward to getting out of the car and taking a walk.
However, Ji Wenzhan told everyone that even if they wanted to get off the bus, they had to wait until they entered southern Yunnan City before getting off. I heard that there is Jinshan nearby, and there is a bandit den on the mountain. The three leaders are called the Three Heroes of Jinshan. They have hundreds of subordinates.
These three heads are all women. The eldest head is called Sai Yuhuan. Apart from being bloated, he has nothing to do with Yuhuan. I especially like handsome men, especially masculine ones.
The second boss is called Thorn Rose, as the name suggests, a rose with thorns. But she only has thorns, not the beauty of a rose. This person is mean and likes to be Sai Yuhuan's follower.
The third head of the family is the most mysterious. He is known as the Little Medical Fairy. It is said that he is very beautiful and looks very similar to the medical fairy Shui Xingrou who has been missing for more than 20 years. She is also the most powerful and is said to be able to mobilize the government. This is also the biggest reason why no officials from the Three Heroes of Jinshan have been dispatched to suppress the bandits.
After hearing Ji Wenzhan's words, the people in the carriage started talking.
Lu Qingtang was the first to laugh, "Ignore the others, let's just say that Sai Yuhuan is very beautiful. Let's not talk about the guards outside, let's talk about the men in this car."
The first person she looked at was naturally her husband, Mo Zeshen, "Forget it, you are so fierce, you will probably scare that dominatrix to death."
She looked at Zen Ke again, nodded and said, "You're not bad. You're tall and strong, but you're a little timid."
Naturally, what he got was a blank look from Zeng Ke.
Lu Qingtang didn't mind at all and looked at Ji Wenzhan with a smile, "Brother is also very good-looking. Maybe I can get a sister-in-law..."
"Don't mess around. Forget it about Sai Yuhuan. Don't scare me. I'm cowardly!"
Ji Wenzhan interrupted Lu Qingtang immediately before he could finish speaking.
Lu Qingtang snorted, "I didn't say I wanted Sai Yuhuan to be my sister-in-law. Why are you so excited?"
After complaining about the three people, Lu Qingtang turned around and continued chatting with Sumukoudan and the others.
Before she could say a few words, she felt a murderous aura coming from beside her.
Lu Qingtang turned around and saw that Mo Zeshen was looking at him with very unfriendly eyes.
She couldn't help but ask: "Why are you looking at me like this, as if you have a grudge against me? Have I offended Li in any way?"
The corner of Mo Zeshen's mouth raised slightly, "What do you mean by what the princess just said? Why does it sound like this king is unattractive? Why did I scare away the dominatrix after we got married?"
Lu Qingtang couldn't help but ask: "Isn't it? Aren't you fierce?"
She paused, and suddenly her mind opened up. She looked at Mo Zeshen with a smile, "Could it be that you are interested in Sai Yuhuan? Your aesthetics have been downgraded. This is not a good sign!"
Mo Zeshen's face went from expressionless to disdainful, and then turned cold. He quickly strangled Lu Qingtang's waist with his hands.
Lu Qingtang was startled by his sudden move, and suddenly felt a little shy when he hugged her so tightly.
After all, the people in this car were indeed a little embarrassed to do this.
However, except for the three babies, everyone else consciously got out of the car and went to a car behind, giving the couple some intimate time.
But even though there were only three members of the family left, Lu Qingtang still felt embarrassed.
She blushed and looked at the three pairs of big black eyes staring at her, and felt uncomfortable all over.
She stretched out her hand to push Mo Zeshen away, and said to him half-threateningly: "You are not allowed to act recklessly. If you turn around and spoil the child, I want you to look good!"
Mo Zeshen was rejected, and naturally he was a little unhappy.
Recalling that Lu Qingtang had just said that he had lost his charm, the man's inherent self-esteem made him unhappy.
He turned his body away, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone, "Yeah, I'm not attractive now and I don't like you anymore. Now I won't even give you a hug, right?"
Lu Qingtang was confused for a moment.
What the hell is this? Why does it involve the relationship between men and women?
I didn't expect that this Mo Zeshen was still an angry person. Why hadn't she noticed it before?
She couldn't help but snickered, and wanted to tease him.
Lu Qingtang stretched out his hand and poked his back, "Are you not angry anymore? You are already the father of a child. Now we are like holding hands with the left hand and the right hand. It doesn't matter whether we like it or not."
As she spoke, she observed Mo Zeshen's expression.
But seeing that his face was getting more and more livid, he looked really angry.
