Planning to marry the third master

Chen Haonan actually guessed some things correctly. The next day, the county magistrate came with his bailiffs. Their purpose was naturally because Yang Ji had been beaten.

It is a joke that a general was beaten by a woman, so the reason is that the people did not cooperate with the army. Please ask the young lady to go to the yamen and have a seat.

Chen Haonan pretended to be ignorant and called someone to find out what happened. The person who narrated the story was Ah Xin, who was beside Chen Haonan. He also told the story in detail: "Yesterday, someone outside wanted to search the Chen Mansion at will. Young Madam refused, so the person said that he would arrest Young Madam as well. This scared Young Madam. In Longnan, no one is so lawless. My Young Madam is at home every day, so how can she break the law? Such an old and unruly person really deserves to be beaten."

The more Chen Haonan spoke, the darker his face became. He slammed the table and said angrily, "Young Madam was bullied like this, why didn't anyone tell me?"

"The master also came back very late yesterday. I thought the young mistress would take the initiative to tell the master."

"She didn't say a word yesterday."

As he spoke, he stood up, his chest heaving, very angry, and then glanced coldly at Magistrate Cao.

Every time Cao met Chen Haonan, he was always in a good mood. Today, he was not confident enough to arrest someone, and the servant's words were completely different from Yang Ji's. He didn't know who was right and who was wrong in this matter, so he changed the subject and asked tactfully, "Did Yang Shuai really say that?"

Ah Xin said: "This must be true, otherwise why would my wife be so angry! She would hit me!"

Chen Haonan said: "Although I am often not at home, I will not allow my wife to be bullied like this. I also ask Lord Cao to make the decision for my wife. Severely punish the lawbreakers. Even if they are covered with the cloak of the court, they cannot get away with it."

“This, this, this,…”

No one is someone a small official like him can mess with.

Chen Haonan cupped his hands and said, "It is settled now. Sir Cao, please report the matter truthfully."

Magistrate Cao was sweating profusely. He did not have the same momentum as when he first arrived. Not to mention asking people to go to the yamen to sit down, he would have thought it would be good if he did not demolish the yamen.

He could only return empty-handed. This was what it meant that a powerful dragon could not defeat a local snake. What could a small county magistrate like him do? The entire Longnan area depended on the Chen family, and in the hearts of the people, the Chen family was more powerful than the government.

Chen Haonan asked someone to send Magistrate Cao away and did not care about it anymore. Xie Xinhui hid in the dark and heard everything clearly. At this moment, she came out and looked at Chen Haonan who was in deep thought and said, "Did I get into trouble?"

Chen Haonan nodded, and then said: "It's okay as long as I'm here."

Xie Xinhui was naturally moved by Chen Haonan's domineering side in protecting his wife, and said, "Thank you."

Chen Haonan raised his eyes to look at Xie Xinhui and said, "Why do we have to be so distant?"

Xie Xinhui lowered her eyes, her heart still unresolved, so she could only respond like this.

Today is not the most troublesome time. The trouble is that Yang Ji’s people have already gone to seek reinforcements. Then, it will be the most troublesome to deal with them.

Chen Haonan knew what Xie Xinhui was thinking about. Her thoughts were all on her face. Chen Haonan stood up and said, "Let's go."

"Where?"

"Let's go see the lover you mentioned." He said as he walked ahead.

But Xie Xinhui's face turned pale, and she didn't even have the courage to take a step forward. She said, "I... I won't go." As she spoke, her heart ached and tears came out.

When it comes to feelings, women are fragile and can't be hurt at all. It would be fine if she was used to being sad, but it was her first time and she couldn't hide it.

Chen Haonan turned around and saw Xie Xinhui like this for the first time. He sighed inwardly, turned back, wiped her tears, and said, "If you don't go, how will you know the whole story? You've been imagining all day, so why not go and see it?"

"I, I, I can slowly accept the fact that you have a mistress. When I am ready, you can bring her home." She tried to be magnanimous. Aren't all women in the world like this?

Chen Haonan sighed again and said, "Let's go. If we go there, you might take the initiative to bring her into the Chen Mansion. I didn't let you know because her condition is very bad now."

This made Xie Xinhui even more confused, "Who?"

"Let's go."

Feng Zhuohua was his first love, and although the word "master" gave him hope, the word "no fate" before his eyes was as clear as it was then. Now, it would be better to be open and honest and return to the original position.

In the carriage, Xie Xinhui looked at Chen Haonan in confusion. She couldn't guess no matter how hard she tried. Could the person who could take her into the Chen residence be someone from the Xie family? "I know someone very well," she asked.

Chen Haonan nodded.

"Something big happened?"

Chen Haonan nodded again. Then he said, "She is the one the military is looking for. She is the one who entered the Chen Mansion because of her relationship with you. If they can't find her, Yang Ji might really settle for the next best thing and arrest you."

Xie Xinhui was even more confused.

What is so serious?

Looking at Chen Haonan, could it be that she was really wrong and there was another hidden story?

If it was a misunderstanding, wouldn't she be sad for nothing?

Feng Zhuohua's fever subsided and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but it was better for her to remain mentally clear than to be sick.

At this moment, Feng Zhuohua was eating porridge. As long as he had something delicious to eat, he didn't have to worry about others.

Chen Haonan brought Xie Xinhui with him. Xie Xinhui recognized Aunt Yue, bowed, and called out, "Aunt Yue."

Aunt Yue nodded and asked, "Did you bring the child?"

Xie Xinhui shook her head and said, "No, I'll bring the kids to play some other day."

Aunt Yue smiled and replied, "Okay."

Chen Haonan asked: "Aunt Yue, how is she now?"

Aunt Yue shook her head and said, "The fever has gone away, but he's back to his old ways. I don't think this is a good way to go."

Then several people entered the room. Xie Xinhui would never believe that it was really Feng Zhuohua, so she stepped forward and said, "Cousin."

Feng Zhuohua didn't react, his eyes were empty, and he just ate.

"Cousin, why don't you pay attention to me?"

Feng Zhuohua still didn't respond, so Xie Xinhui said, "Cousin, if you ignore me again, I'll be really angry."

Qingyue said: "Don't disturb her while she eats."

Xie Xinhui then noticed that something was wrong and asked Chen Haonan in confusion, "Is she really my cousin?"

Chen Haonan nodded and said, "She was poisoned and brought here. I also found something wrong with her at the gate of Chen's house."

It was really a misunderstanding, but this was no longer important. The important thing was: "What is a Gu? What is a Gu?"

Chen Haonan also heard about it and said, "They must have planted bugs in her body to control her mind."

Xie Xinhui couldn't help but cover her mouth. Planting insects? She had never heard of it before and asked, "Who, why would you do this?"

Chen Haonan said: "It has something to do with your third uncle. Is your third uncle an official in the court?"

Xie Xinhui was even more incredulous and nodded, "I only found out about this when I received the letter a few years ago."

Is being an official so scary?

Why would they do this?

Chen Haonan said: "Then you have to be careful. If those people can't find her, they will probably come to get you."

Xie Xinhui's face turned pale with fear. She didn't want to be like her cousin. "Is that what the old man did that day?"

Chen Haonan nodded and said, "At the moment, it seems so."

Xie Xinhui couldn't help but clench her fists and said, "This is too much. I want to write to my third uncle and I want to write to my father."

Qing Yue couldn't help but say, "Then you should go quickly. She is pregnant. If the Third Master doesn't come, I don't know how long I can help take care of her."

Xie Xinhui spoke again: "Cousin, I am Xinhui, look at me."

Qingyue handed the bell in her hand to Xie Xinhui and said, "Try shaking this."

Xie Xinhui did as she was told, and Feng Zhuohua really looked over at her.

Xie Xinhui couldn't help but tear up: "Cousin, how did you become like this?"
