The reborn daughter of the Marquis Mansion takes over the world
Chapter 304 Asking Him for a Letter of Revocation
Something unexpected happened at the Fu Mansion at night. After reporting to the police, it alarmed all parties in Kyoto.
Soon, people from Jingzhao Yin, the Ministry of Justice, and the Dali Temple rushed to Fu's house.
Gu Liaohe was also shocked when he heard that Song had escaped from prison.
After the coroner finished the autopsy, he immediately ordered people to move Song's body back to the Dali Temple.
Upon hearing the news, Huo Yunjue was extremely anxious and led the Jinwu Guards to rush to the Fu Mansion.
As soon as he stepped into the front hall, he saw Mr. Fu holding his bandaged wound, sitting in the hall with all his might, and said to everyone in a serious tone: "Song was so bold this time that she escaped from prison and sneaked into our Fu Mansion to commit crimes. There must be an accomplice behind her. If it weren't for the loyal and brave guards in the mansion, I'm afraid I would have died at the hands of this vicious woman."
After he finished speaking, a burly man standing not far away knelt in front of Huo Yunjue and reported: "Fourth Prince, tonight Song bribed the doorman with a large sum of money and sneaked in pretending to be the family of the charcoal delivery man, pretending to thank you, with the intention of assassinating the old master."
"Fortunately, Uncle Fu was alert and pushed the old man away in time, allowing me to kill Song."
"But the old man's arm was still scratched by Song. This is my negligence in guarding. I am ashamed to live up to the old man's high expectations, and I am ashamed to face my cousin and Princess Azhao."
The guard spoke sincerely and took the initiative to plead guilty, "Your Highness, I killed him. I am willing to take all the blame."
After Huo Yunjue learned the whole story, he raised his hand and signaled the guards to stand up.
"You bravely protected your master, so you have done nothing wrong. On the contrary, you fought hard to kill Song and saved the old man, which was a great achievement. Prince Ning and Princess Azhao are grateful to you, so how could they let you be punished?"
Mr. Fu nodded repeatedly and thanked Huo Yunjue: "Your Highness is wise. I thank you on behalf of Ah Zhong. It is getting late now. In order to avoid worrying Zijun and Manman, please allow me to inform Ninghou Mansion tomorrow."
Huo Yunjue was thinking the same thing, and nodded, "Old Master, just rest and recover. I will personally go to the Dali Temple to examine the case in detail and give you an explanation."
After saying this, he politely said goodbye to Mr. Fu and led a group of officials out of the Fu Mansion.
After stepping out of the gate, Huo Yunjue swiftly jumped onto his horse, turned to Gu Liaohe with a stern expression and asked.
"What do you think of what happened tonight? The Dali Temple is heavily guarded. Who could have released Song from the prison quietly to commit the crime?"
Gu Liaohe said solemnly: "There must be something fishy behind this matter. I'm afraid someone wants to use the Song family to deliberately kill someone with a borrowed knife."
Huo Yunjue understood instantly, with a sharp look in his eyes: "It was Huo Yunhong who did it!"
The next morning at court, Emperor Yao became furious when he heard what happened at Fu's residence last night.
Not only did he severely punish the Dali Temple's prison warden and other officials who failed to perform their duties, but he also ordered Huo Yunjue and Gu Liaohe to get to the bottom of the case within three days.
Song had already been sentenced to death, and now he was charged with escaping from prison and committing murder. In order to appease the Ninghou Mansion and the Fu family, Emperor Yao ordered that Song be executed. Her body be cut into pieces and thrown into a mass grave, and no burial or worship was allowed, in order to comfort Ning Ziqing's siblings and the Fu family.
Ning Zijun was so grateful to Emperor Yao that he immediately kowtowed to express his gratitude. After retiring from the court, he went straight to the Fu Mansion and told Mr. Fu the good news to comfort him.
Ning Ziqing couldn't help but sneer when he learned of the result: "If it weren't for the reputation of our two families, I would have personally taken my sword and knife back from the Song family for my mother and grandfather."
After she finished speaking, she could not wait to tell Jiang Qie: "Go back to the Marquis' Mansion and tell Ning Zilan the news. She has a deep relationship with the Song mother and daughter. I want to see how she will react when she learns about her mother's fate!"
Ning Ziqing was secretly pleased in her heart. She vowed to make all those who had hurt her pay the price for the humiliation and hatred she had suffered in her previous life in this life.
Afterwards, she stayed in the Fu Mansion with Mr. Fu for the whole day and only returned to Xiyuan after dinner.
Yinxiang helped her wash up and was about to help her go to bed when Yuanli came in to report.
"Young Master, there is news from the eldest branch of the Song family. A few days ago, they were traveling to Zehe Town and were unfortunately attacked by mountain bandits. Madam Song and the eldest son of the Song family slipped and fell into the river while fleeing and drowned. Their wife and children were abducted and their whereabouts are unknown."
"As for Lord Song, not only were all his property looted, but his legs were also broken. He lost his loved ones and became blind due to excessive grief. He is now barely alive."
Ning Ziqing calmly took off his hairpin after hearing this, and then he sat in front of the bronze mirror and asked curiously, "Who did Master ask to make this?"
Yuan Li answered truthfully: "It's the bastards from the Blood Demon Sect."
Ning Ziqing was surprised: "Master, what do you mean? If he wants to show off his power, he should go to find Master Ke. How could he be associated with an evil sect like the Blood Demon Sect?"
Yuan Li's mouth twitched, "Because... the Blood Evil Sect leader lost the fight with our hall master last year, and he still owes the hall master three kowtows. The hall master used this as an excuse to threaten that if he didn't obey, he would unite with all the righteous sects to encircle and destroy the Blood Evil Sect and make it disappear from the martial arts world. The Blood Evil Sect leader had no choice but to agree."
"Master, this is a really smart move. Let the Blood Demon Sect handle this matter so that we won't give them a chance to be criticized."
Ning Ziqing couldn't stop laughing.
Yuan Li sighed helplessly: "Since the young hall master came to join us, the hall master's temperament seems to have changed a lot. In order to achieve his goals, his methods have become more decisive."
Ning Ziqing restrained his smile and asked seriously, "Wasn't he like this before?"
Yuan Li said seriously, "Young Hall Master, you don't know that after the Hall Master regained control of Zhan Yuan Hall, he not only abandoned the Taibai Sword Technique, but also asked Wuyazi for the Wushuang Sword. He practiced the new sword technique every day and took care of all the affairs of the gang himself. He is completely different from the alcoholic and easy-going person in the past."
Ning Ziqing frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.
"What stimulated him?"
Yuanli shook his head and said he didn’t know.
"So what's the name of the new sword move he's practicing?"
"ruthless!"
Ning Ziqing understood immediately.
"Could it be that Master's lover was abducted by someone again?"
Yuan Li: “…”
On the day of the chrysanthemum viewing banquet, the Ninghou Mansion was extremely lively, and all the powerful ladies and young ladies in Kyoto came to the banquet.
Everyone originally thought that there would be a rift between Cao Yanyan and Ning Ziqing because of Song's mistakes.
Unexpectedly, the two of them came hand in hand, very close to each other, which surprised everyone.
The news of the murder of several people from the Song family's eldest branch has not yet been reported back to Kyoto.
Ning Ziqing has confessed to Cao Yanyan that Song Yu will not be implicated by the Song family's mistakes, and encouraged him to prepare for the exam with peace of mind.
In addition, Ning Ziqing also helped Cao Yanyan open a women's martial arts school to recruit like-minded people, in order to fulfill Cao Yanyan's martial arts dream.
The relationship between the two is the same as before, without any barriers at all. The rumors are naturally dispelled, and those who want to make fun of Cao Yanyan can only keep silent.
At the chrysanthemum viewing banquet, Ning Ziqing finally selected the embroiderer of his choice and returned to Xiyuan early to rest, feeling satisfied.
After the banquet, Lin Wanqiao sent away the last group of female relatives and returned to the front hall to report to Lord Ning and the old lady.
The two elders were full of praise for Lin Wanqiao's management today.
The old lady was even more delighted. She held her hand and her words were full of relief and recognition.
"Ah Qiao, I thought you would need some time to hone your skills before taking over the affairs of the mansion, but I didn't expect you to be so smart and capable, managing everything in an orderly manner. Your father and I are really relieved to have a daughter-in-law like you. From now on, the family business of the Ninghou Mansion will be handed over to you with confidence."
Lord Ning echoed and praised Lin Wanqiao highly.
Lin Wanqiao was humble and polite, repeatedly expressing that he was still young and needed the old lady's guidance, which made the old lady very happy.
After a while, Ning Zijun came to pay his respects. They chatted for a while. The old lady urged them to go back to their room and rest early, and did not forget to remind them to have a baby for the Ninghou Mansion as soon as possible.
Ning Zijun took Lin Wanqiao's hand and agreed happily, which made Lin Wanqiao feel shy.
After returning to Xinglu Garden, the maids and servants helped them wash up.
Xichun and Zhixia quickly made the bed and left one after another.
Ning Zijun came out of the ear chamber, and Lin Wanqiao went up to him and changed his pajamas.
Ning Zijun held her hand and gently embraced her in his arms.
"Aqiao, you have worked hard these days."
Lin Wanqiao leaned against his chest and smiled, "My husband, I'm not tired at all. Qingqing sent people to help me, so I have a lot of free time every day."
Ning Zijun hugged her tightly: "That's good, Qingqing is not married yet, you and her can still get along well for a while."
He paused, his expression becoming somewhat complicated: "Today, His Majesty summoned me to the Imperial Study and asked if we could agree on a wedding date with the Su family as soon as possible, intending to have Qingqing and Qi Langjun get married after the New Year."
Lin Wanqiao was surprised and asked, "What does your majesty mean? It's less than two months before the end of the year, why would you let Qingqing get married in such a hurry?"
Ning Zijun pursed his lips and sighed silently, thinking that Emperor Yao must have noticed something, so he deliberately tested him today.
Since Lin Wanqiao didn't know that Ning Ziqing was concerned about Huo Yunjue, he had to just brush it off.
"Perhaps, His Majesty hopes that I can personally send Qingqing off to marry before returning to the North."
Lin Wanqiao still had some doubts and wanted to ask for clarification, but when she looked up she met Ning Zijun's fiery eyes.
He lowered his head and kissed Lin Wanqiao's lips gently. His warm palms gently stroked her waist. His low and hoarse voice sounded in her ears: "Aqiao, it's late at night. Should we... go to bed?"
Lin Wanqiao understood, her face slightly reddened, and she responded in his arms.
Just as Ning Zijun was about to pick up Lin Wanqiao, the door was pushed open with a bang.
The two were startled and looked towards the door together, only to see Ning Ziqing wearing a fox fur coat, hugging a pillow, looking at them with a wronged look on his face.
Lin Wanqiao quickly let go of Ning Zijun, walked over and asked with concern: "Qingqing, what's wrong with you?"
Ning Ziqing hugged Lin Wanqiao and said coquettishly: "Sister-in-law, I just had a terrible nightmare and now I am too scared to sleep. I want to sleep with you tonight, okay?"
Ning Zijun immediately objected: "Qingqing, you are so old, and you are still afraid of nightmares. If you really can't sleep, let Yaoyao, Huiyi's mother and others accompany you."
Ning Ziqing flatly refused and refused to leave, which made Ning Zijun furious: "You want to sleep with your sister-in-law, then where should I sleep?"
Ning Ziqing smiled playfully and pointed outside the door: "Brother, how about you stay in the side room tonight?"
Of course Ning Zijun didn't want to do that, so he grabbed Ning Ziqing's hand and pulled him out.
Ning Ziqing angrily pushed him away and ordered in a dignified manner: "Ning Zijun, as the princess, I order you to sleep in the side room tonight. You are not allowed to disobey."
Ning Zijun was dumbfounded. Before he could utter a word of rebuttal, Ning Ziqing had already called Jiang Qie and others and kicked him out without any explanation.
Ning Zijun struggled in vain and was dragged directly to the side room.
Ning Ziqing in the room watched his disappearing figure, closed the door triumphantly, jumped onto the bed with a pillow in his arms, quickly pulled the quilt over him, and called to Lin Wanqiao to come over and go to bed.
Lin Wanqiao extinguished the candle on the table, climbed onto the bed and lay down beside her. He poked her forehead helplessly and said, "You little rascal, you only know how to bully your brother."
Ning Zijun tossed and turned that night. Although he understood that Ning Ziqing liked his sister-in-law Lin Wanqiao very much, she wouldn't always compete with him for his wife.
But for several days in a row, Ning Ziqing stayed in Xinglu Garden and refused to leave.
Ning Zijun was forced to sleep in a side room every night. His bed was cold, his body was cold, and his heart was even colder.
Tonight, he lay on the cold bed, tossing and turning, feeling depressed. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and sat up and pounded the bed, determined to solve this trouble once and for all.
In the main room, Lin Wanqiao was still busy doing embroidery under the lamp.
Ning Ziqing saw that she was taking a long time to rest, so he got up and went to urge her.
"Sister-in-law, why are you embroidering again? The light is so dim, it will hurt your eyes."
She snatched the embroidery frame from Lin Wanqiao's hand and stopped her from embroidering.
Lin Wanqiao quickly explained: "There are only a few stitches left to finish the embroidery, give it to me quickly."
Ning Ziqing disagreed.
Lin Wanqiao patted the back of her hand and said, "Qingqing, you're going to get married soon. I have to hurry up and embroider some underwear for you."
Ning Ziqing was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why did sister-in-law suddenly bring up this matter?"
Lin Wanqiao pulled the embroidery shed from her hand and said seriously, "I heard from your brother that His Majesty has ordered our Marquis' Mansion and the Su Mansion to set a wedding date as soon as possible. The Ministry of Rites is selecting an auspicious date. It is estimated that after the New Year, it will be the wedding day for you and Mr. Qi. I am busy preparing some dowry for you."
Ning Ziqing was caught off guard and began to panic.
Lin Wanqiao buried her head and didn't notice her reaction. After finishing the last few stitches, she took off the red shirt with the mandarin duck pattern and asked Ning Ziqing, "Do you like this pattern? I think it looks festive, so I thought I'd prepare a few more for you."
"Early tomorrow morning, you and I will go to the Xiuhe Workshop to make your wedding dress."
"When your brother is free in the next two days, he will ask your uncle and the others to go to the Su Mansion to discuss the marriage."
……
After hearing what Lin Wanqiao said, Ning Ziqing's heart tightened and his face turned very ugly.
She was worried about exposing herself in front of Lin Wanqiao, so she quickly put on a fox fur coat and found an excuse to leave Xinglu Garden.
As soon as she returned to Xiyuan, she rushed straight into Yaoyao's room and woke her up anxiously.
"Yaoyao, take me to the Su Mansion to find Mr. Qi tomorrow morning."
Yaoyao rubbed her eyes in confusion, yawned unhappily and complained to her: "Little ancestor, why are you going to look for Ah Qi again?"
Ning Ziqing blurted out: "I'm going to go find him and ask for the divorce certificate."
Yaoyao suddenly woke up, stared at her with wide eyes and advised: "Can you change it?"
