Jiangnan, Suzhou County Government.
The prefect, Yu Enguo, looked nervously at the Yamen gate, feeling uneasy.
Yesterday, the imperial envoy sent by the imperial court was assassinated. He almost didn't sleep all night last night.
They have already investigated who the other party is. They are some of the remaining forces of the Jinling Zhen clan and the remnants of the White Lotus Sect.
He never expected that those people would be so crazy and assassinate the imperial envoy. Did they think that there was no one left in the court, or that the champion Hou Ti would not move on?
That Lin Ruhai was his future father-in-law. If he killed someone, how could they fare better? ? If Jia Qi comes to Jiangnan again, Jiangnan will probably be crippled.
Originally, he thought that the other party would run away when they heard that the imperial minister was coming, but he didn't expect this to be the case.
The place where the ship sank was at the Parrot's Beak. The people have been salvaging all night, but they still don't have any news. What should we do? !
...
On the other side, in the capital, is the champion's palace.
Jia Qi had just finished his breakfast when he heard a commotion outside.
But Xiangling walked in in a hurry, with a hint of urgency on her face.
"Uncle, please go and see Miss Lin. She just came back after dinner this morning and she's shouting that she wants to break off the engagement!!"
Hearing this, Jia Qi's face turned dark. Damn it, Daiyu, this little girl, really didn't idle for half a minute. She touched and kissed this person and played with him.
Behind Xiang Ling, Cai Luan also walked in.
"It was Xichun who said a few words to her. The words were not so nice. Miss Lin was aroused!!"
Hearing Cai Luan's words, Jia Qi's mouth twitched. His girl was not a worry-free person. He even told her that Dai Yu had lost her memory now and could not remember what happened between them. Why did she start arguing with her? People are coming.
Cai Luan looked at Jia Qi's slowly smiling face and sighed softly in her heart. That little girl should know Jia Qi's identity!
Love is always selfish. There are already so many people in the house now. If there is one less person, she will naturally be happy to see it happen.
And she is still the biggest threat to her. If Daiyu leaves, with her identity and relationship with Jia Qi, at least there is still hope for her position in the palace.
"Let's go and have a look!!"
When Xiangling heard Jia Qi's words, she took Jia Qi's hand and ran to the east across the courtyard, kicking quite fast with her short legs.
When Cai Luan saw this scene, something strange appeared in her eyes. This silly girl had not made any plans for herself for so long. Did she know that if Miss Lin really broke off her engagement with her uncle, what would happen to her? What a benefit to her.
Regarding this matter, Cai Luan could have intervened, but in the end she chose to stand by and watch. She did not deliberately hide it, nor did she deliberately choke on her anger. The path she chose was hers. As long as she didn't regret it, then there was nothing she could say.
"Girl, stop crying!! Miss Fourth, she didn't mean to do it!!"
"That was intentional. Did I recruit her? I asked the Marquis to come here every day? She was so angry that she vented her anger on the Marquis. What did she do to me!!!"
"Girl, the fourth girl is still young and ignorant. Please be patient. You are already half the mistress of this house. When you get married in the future, she will still call you sister-in-law!!"
"I'm going to cancel this marriage now!! How many people have been raised by Yingying Yanyan in my house, it's obvious that he is not a good person!! I don't want to marry him!! "
"Girl~~ Mr. Hou always does things in a measured way. Those people may have their own difficulties. Why don't you ask clearly before talking!! Just like that girl Xiangling, didn't I have a good chat with you yesterday? ??"
"Xiang Ling is different. No, I can't let Xiang Ling stay with him. She has no scheming at all and will be bullied to death by the people here!!"
Standing at the door for a while, Cai Luan suppressed a smile. Xiang Ling blushed and shrank behind Jia Qi. She didn't expect that Dai Yu would have such an idea and want to take her away from the uncle. She should be careful Yes, why are you leaving? This is not helping her, but harming her. Jia Qi treats her not just as a daughter, but also as a spoiled daughter.
She had heard that no one outside dared to look at Jia Chu, but she could still drag people to Manhou Mansion and run, and Jia Chu never said anything. When she got tired from running, Jia Chu would still carry her.
With such a master, she wouldn't leave! ! Even if you beat him to death, he won’t leave!
During the time she came to the Hou Mansion, she felt as if she had gained weight again. Of course, she was not very fat. Compared with Miss Lin's frail figure, she looked chubby.
"Uncle, why don't we go back~~"
Hearing Xiang Ling's words, Cai Luan's shoulders trembled, and she took it upon herself to decide. She finally brought in reinforcements, but she didn't expect that in the end, she was plotting against herself, and the little girl couldn't help but resist.
Jia Qi chuckled, "Don't worry, as long as I don't want to, you can't leave even if you want to!!"
Hearing Jia Xun's words, Xiang Ling was a little embarrassed and hid behind Jia Xun without saying a word.
Hearing the laughter coming from outside the door, the expressions of several maids in the house changed slightly, and they hurriedly came to check. The Hou Mansion was no different from other places, and the rules were very strict. In the past two days, their girls had a conflict with Jia Chu again. This man When we met, we couldn't even say a few words.
If the girl's angry words were spread to Jia Qi's ears, wouldn't it be bad? ?
"Greetings, Lord Marquis!!"
As soon as he went out, he saw Jia Qi, Cai Luan and Xiang Ling.
Zijuan hurriedly bowed and her voice was not too low, intending to remind the people in the room.
Seeing this loyal little maid, Jia Qi was not embarrassed. Listening to this voice, it seemed that she was mediating with Daiyu just now.
This speech is quite reasonable, unlike those who exhort people who only say whether it is right or not, but cannot even explain a word of truth.
"Go make a pot of tea!!"
"Why are you calling my maid!! If you want to drink, call your maid to make it!!"
Hearing the smell of gunpowder in the other party's mouth, Jia Qi shook his head helplessly.
My little daughter-in-law is like a cat that has exploded. This girl has never had such a little temper with me before.
"Miss Lin is so angry. I let you eat for your own good. You don't have to hate me so much!"
When it came to eating, Daiyu felt a little guilty, especially in front of Xiangling and Cailian. She always felt as if she had been caught as a thief.
In the past two days, as long as she didn't go to eat, Jia Qi would come over. He wouldn't leave until she drank a whole bowl. If she didn't drink, he would feed him.
"When can I leave!!"
"Wait until Uncle Lin returns to Beijing!! I will personally send you back to the Lin Mansion then!!"
"Then when will my father come back??"
"It could be as short as more than a month, or as long as three or two months!!" "It's such a long time?"
"Inspecting salt transportation, and there are big cases, it is natural that it takes a long time!!"
...
"I heard that you are going to break off your engagement with me??"
The room suddenly became quiet, and Daiyu's face flushed slightly. She felt that Jia Qi was listening in the corner outside the door and overheard her words.
"After these two days of getting along, I feel that we are really not suitable for each other!! What I want is to be a pair for life, just like my father and mother!! Since there are so many women around you, and Why bother to provoke me~~"
Jia Qi laughed when he heard this.
"Why are you laughing?? Am I right?? I can't count the girls in your house on one hand! Including the two of them, don't you think you are selfish?"
"I don't think so. Sister Lin can ask them. Is it selfish of me to keep them by my side? Or is it selfish of me to let them out!!"
Hearing this, Daiyu felt a knot in her heart. She had forgotten one thing. Jia Qi was a marquis, and those people probably stayed voluntarily because of their power.
"It's my fault. It seems that I care about everything and am becoming worse than the other sisters!"
This yin
Yang Guai's words were truly profound.
Jia Qi also experienced the treatment of Jia Baoyu in the original work.
What this means is that others don't care at all about the fact that there are other women around you. It's just me who cares. It's my fault. Just let me go and find someone who doesn't care.
However, if you criticize people like this, it is easy to chat to death, which can be called a cold weapon.
"Mencius said: "Fish is what I want, bear's paw is also what I want~~"
This is a passage from Mencius. Daiyu has read it. A trace of suspicion flashed in her eyes. Why is Jia Qi talking about this at this time? ?
But the next moment, Jia Qi continued: "They say you can't have both, but I want them all!!"
"The Marquis is so overbearing. He has such a beautiful sister and such a good maid, but he is still not satisfied. Now he doesn't even let me, a careless person, be spared. Are all the daughters' families in the world going to be involved by you? It’s not over until you come to the house!!”
Hearing Jia Qi's words, Dai Yu was not afraid. She seemed to know that Jia Qi would not do anything to her, so she continued.
Before Daiyu finished speaking, Cai Luan was still a little surprised. What the other party said was on point. Jia Qi, a little bastard, didn't want anyone. He even wanted the empress of the dynasty, and he also wanted it. There is the Concubine Yi who calls this brother Qiu on weekdays.
If she knew about this, everyone would probably be stupid.
"If Sister Lin thinks so, it's quite natural. Anyway, in this matter, I would rather kill someone by mistake than let it go. If I regret it in the future, there is no regret medicine in the world!!"
She originally thought that Jia Qi would find some excuses to refuse, but she didn't expect that the other party would admit it so bachelorly. For a moment, Dai Yu didn't know how to refute.
"You~~"
"So, Sister Lin has put the matter of breaking off the engagement back into her mind. Without my permission, you can't break off the marriage! Besides, in the capital, no one will dare to marry you unless I personally speak out!! 「
