Tragic death on wedding night, replacement doctor concubine reborn to kill the whole family

"Okay, that's great." Ou Yurong smiled, "Aying has no other requests, as long as your future husband takes a concubine."

She had never asked the two women what their requirements were for their future husbands, but the two women had often accompanied her into the palace to meet the Empress Dowager since they were young.

The retired emperor never took a concubine, nor did their father. Neither did the generals in the court, such as General Wei and Lord Zhou. Her daughters would never want their husbands to have three or four wives.

This Qing Chang'an has always had a good reputation.

It was rare for him to make such a promise, so he waved his hand and said, "Go and call the young lady."

The butler responded, "Yes, sir."

Xie Ying had just returned to the courtyard and had just washed her hands when she heard the housekeeper calling, "Miss, the master and the mistress want you to go to the main hall."

Xie Ying felt very nervous.

After she knew that Qing Chang'an was coming to ask for marriage, she felt a little confused. There was a vague, intangible emotion surrounding her, and she didn't seem to want to go -

"Miss?" The butler did not respond and looked at Mingzhu on the side.

Mingzhu walked up to Xie Ying and said, "Miss, the master and the mistress asked you to meet Master Qing."

"Yes, and Mr. Qing promised that he would not take a concubine for the sake of the eldest lady." The housekeeper said with a smile.

Xie Ying frowned, "Did he really say that?"

"Ah."

Xie Ying couldn't help but think of Xiao Chen. Master Ding said that Xiao Chen was her only true love. Did he say that she was Xiao Chen's only true love?

She was in a daze and couldn't remember.

But no matter whether it is true or not, if Xiao Chen still wants to practice Taoism, wouldn’t she be in trouble?

Thinking of this, Xie Ying felt very unhappy and simply followed the housekeeper out of the yard.

After arriving at the main hall, she first paid her respects to the right prime minister Qing Chengshi and his son Qing Changan.

Qing Changan stood up, tall and graceful, and returned the greeting to her, "Meet Miss Xie."

Xie Ying had met Qing Chang'an before, but they had little interaction.

Speaking of which, Qing Chang'an is also a popular man in the capital.

However, more than ten years ago, a girl named Qing An Ning appeared in the Qing Mansion, causing turmoil in the capital. Everyone was afraid that after their daughter got married, it would be difficult for her to get along with the sisters-in-law in the Qing family.

After a long exchange of greetings.

Qing Chengshi and his son said goodbye and left.

Ou Yurong asked, "Ying'er, what do you think of Master Qing?"

how is it?

Qing Chang'an is a handsome man, and he is also the third place winner of the imperial examination personally selected by the Supreme Emperor. He is indeed a rare good man.

Xie Ying nodded slightly.

Ou Yurong said, "He is several years older than you, about twenty-two."

Xie Ying had no idea what age her mother was talking about, so she just said, "My daughter hasn't made up her mind yet, so mother, please help me push it off first."

"Do you dislike his age?"

Xie Ying shook her head. “No, it’s just that my daughter hasn’t thought it through yet.” Her mind was a little confused.

Ou Yurong looked at her husband beside her.

Xie Yanheng said, "Listen to Ying'er."

Xie Ying bowed happily, "Thank you, father, mother."

"Don't thank me yet," Xie Yanheng raised his hand, looked at Xie Ying and said seriously, "I have screened all the good men in the capital, and Qing Chang'an is the best in terms of both family background and personal ability."

Xie Ying didn’t know what her father meant. Didn’t he say he would help her push it?

Ou Yurong was also confused.

Xie Yanheng said: "I have worked with Lord Qing for half my life. His character is trustworthy, and his son will naturally not be too bad."

Ou Yurong smiled, "But he has many wives and concubines, and many children. Will Qing Changan follow him?"

"Didn't Qing Chang'an just say that he was willing to be monogamous?"

Ou Yurong nodded, yes.

Xie Yanheng looked at Xie Ying and continued, "Let's not postpone this marriage. If that guy really likes you, he will send you a letter to invite you. Then, you can get in touch with him first."

Ou Yurong was speechless.

What's so surprising about this?

Look at Xiao Yao and Xie Yunchu, and then look at that brat from Zhou Yuqi's family, both of them are chasing after Xiao Zhenzhen.

His daughter naturally has to open her eyes and find a husband she likes.

Although the retired emperor and empress dowager strongly advocated that women could enter the court and engage in business, the effect was minimal.

Under this premise, her father is so open-minded. Does he want her to judge the other person's character and choose her husband by herself?

Xie Yanheng looked at his daughter's admiring eyes and said seriously, "My daughter, you can choose the husband you want. I will never interfere."

As he spoke, Xie Yanheng felt that he still had to add conditions, "However, if you are over 20 and still can't make a good choice, then you have to listen to your mother and let her choose for you."

Xie Ying pursed her lips, "Thank you, father."

At the age of twenty, she still has four years to take things slow.

Ou Yurong leaned on Xie Yanheng's shoulder, took his hand, and looked at Xie Ying, "However, Mr. Qing is young and promising, with outstanding talent and appearance. Ying'er, you must not be careless and miss him."

Xie Yanheng also nodded, "That's right." That's why he said not to rush to refuse.

"Mr. Qing is indeed very kind." She smiled and did not mention Xiao Chen. "I just want to spend more time with my father and mother."

"really?"

"Of course it's true."

Xie Yanheng said: "It's not in vain that I raised a daughter like you. Unlike Xie Yunchu, she went to the palace for Xiao Yao."

Ou Yurong punched Xie Yanheng, "What are you talking about? Are you still feeling wronged?"

"No." He didn't dare to feel wronged. He just felt that how could such a wise and intelligent man give birth to such an infatuated man like Xie Yunchu.

Fortunately, his daughter-in-law is the emperor, his childhood sweetheart, and his Xie family’s ancestors are also very happy.

----

Qingfu.

Before returning to the main courtyard, Qing Chengshi asked, "What you said in Duke Xie's mansion today, is it true?"

Qing Changan naturally understood what his father was asking, and he nodded, "Yes."

"And what about the people in your room?"

Qing Changan said: "My son will give her some money and set her free."

"also."

Qing Chengshi walked with his hands behind his back, turning back to look at Qing Changan every three steps. Could this boy really resist taking a concubine for his entire life?

Qing Chang'an stood with his hands behind his back, and when he thought of Xie Ying's appearance, he smiled knowingly. He had finally waited for her to grow up.

Only after his father walked away did Qing Chang'an go towards his own yard.

"Son."

When the servants saw Qing Chang'an, they all showed courtesy.

He went straight back to the study, wrote a letter to release the slave, took out one thousand taels of silver, and said loudly, "Ada."

The servant who accompanied him immediately opened the door and came in, "Sir."

"Go call Mengchun over. Never mind. I'll go by myself."

He simply stood up, took the things he had prepared, and strode out of the study.

Ada scratched the back of his head, wondering why his master was acting a little abnormal today.

Ada had no choice but to follow.

When they arrived at the courtyard's side room, Qing Chang'an shouted to the maid on the corridor, "Let Mengchun come to see me."

"It's your son."

The little maid happily went to find Mengchun, "Sister Mengchun, the young master asked you to go see him, and he also had a lot of banknotes in his hand. The young master dotes on me too much."
