Seeing Hua Wuque's bewildered expression, Jiang Yulang asked, "Is there a woman he likes in Wuque?"

A faint blush appeared on Hua Wuque's pale face, and she shook her head honestly, "Not really."

Jiang Yulang smiled: "Then why don't you try to like Miss Murong Jiu? She was born like a fish and a wild goose, and is proficient in medical science and pharmacology. She is very smart and intelligent, and her family background is comparable to yours. She is a good match."

Hua Wuque was stunned for a long time, then murmured: "This...I..." Although he didn't know what it means to be in love with each other, he couldn't feel that kind of affection for a woman he had only met once or twice.

Jiang Yulang sighed, and suddenly asked: "Then, will you disobey your eldest aunt's order?"

Hua Wuque shook his head without hesitation, "No."

Jiang Yulang said again: "Then can you find a way to make your eldest aunt change her mind?"

Hua Wuque continued to shake her head again: "Eldest Aunt says one thing, she will never take back what she said, and what she wants to do will definitely be achieved."

Jiang Yulang spread his hands: "Since the matter is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed, instead of passively accepting it, why not simply accept it?"

Hua Wuque frowned slightly: "But I don't want to...I don't want to..." But he couldn't say the words after that, he didn't want to kill Jiang Xiaoyu, he didn't want to marry Murong Jiu, but his aunt raised him for twenty years, With deep kindness, how could he go against her wishes?He paused, and finally said: "Maybe I just don't know why I am living in this world?"

I didn't want Jiang Yulang to laugh when he heard this, reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Young Master Wuque, not only do you not know what you are living for, but no one in the world knows the answer to this question, you live consciously I don’t know, but who isn’t like this?” Pointing to himself, he asked, “Tell me, why do I live?”

Hua Wuque was stunned by the question, thought and thought, but couldn't give an answer, so she couldn't help but smiled wryly: "It seems that I'm just being mediocre."

Jiang Yulang shook his head: "You are by no means mediocre, let alone disturbing yourself. A life span of seventy years is rare, and the time a person can live in this world is only a few tens of years. Naturally, he wants to live more clearly. Dr. Chunqiu Lu once said 'Li De', 'Li Gong', and 'Li Yan' are the 'Three Immortals', and it is believed that although these three things will last for a long time, they can last forever. Therefore, the ancient sages mostly used the purpose of living behind the dead, but they were not well-known. It’s all falsehood, it’s just my comfort to myself, it may be mentioned by future generations in a hundred years, but what about thousands of years later? Isn’t it just buried in the dust?”

Hua Wuque felt disappointed: "Is it true that people live to die?"

Jiang Yulang nodded: "That's right. Humans have always been born towards death. Ordinary people spend 360 days a year just busying themselves with food, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, and don't worry about whether they will die tomorrow. It's all used in how to live every day."

Under the light, Hua Wuque's dark eyes were like two beads falling into mercury. He smiled and said, "Born to death? Brother Yulang's words really opened my eyes. The proud student is really not something an ordinary person like Wu Que can compare to."

Jiang Yulang also said with a smile: "If it were a master, he would definitely say that life is death and death is life. Life and death are just one thought. To be honest, I don't have the roots of wisdom. I can't listen to those Zen words. got it."

Speaking of this, he changed the subject again, and turned back to Hua Wuque's extremely worrying marriage: "We might as well go to Murong Villa first, and you should talk to those nine girls more, if you still can't develop feelings, I'll do my best to help you out."

Hua Wuque was very grateful: "I have lived in Yihua Palace since I was a child. I have a cold personality, and I am not very enthusiastic in dealing with others. After leaving the palace, everyone treats me with more than respect, but not enough kindness. Only Yulang has always been kind, He can be regarded as my only friend." Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of Jiang Xiaoyu, and felt a pain in his heart, he was also his friend, but unfortunately...

He looked out of the window and said, "It's getting late, you're too tired, so I won't bother you here." After he got up, Jiang Yulang nodded when he saw this, and also stood up: "It's okay, I don't want to Go to bed so early, let's go out together, I will talk to my father."

Hua Wuque thought for a moment, and realized that Jiang Yulang was going to discuss with Jiang Biehe how to properly end the marriage contract with Murong's family, and felt guilty again, but before he could say anything, Jiang Yulang had already said goodbye to him. Entered Jiang Biehe's room.

At this time, Jiang Biehe was holding back the anger in his chest and had nowhere to vent it. He thought he was very patient and could endure what others couldn't bear, but no matter who he was, he couldn't bear it after 20 years, let alone the person A woman, seeing her son coming, was finally able to confide freely.

"That bitch Yaoyue is so deceitful that he dares to touch our Jiang family's daughter-in-law? If I hadn't kept that woman to restrain Yan Nantian, I wouldn't have to endure this humiliation anymore." The order was for him to assist Hua Wuque in marrying Murong Jiu, which was a blatant slap in the face.

Jiang Yulang also knows that his father has been depressed for so many years, but Yaoyue is not easy to deal with. His father is just talking angry words, which is funny. The little child said, "Father, have you forgotten? I just told you before I left that I had no intentions for Murong Jiu. I was still having a headache where to find a perfect excuse that would push the marriage off without hurting both of you." The family is friendly, and now Yihuagong is giving us such a good excuse, which is really a great help."

Jiang Biehe carefully looked at his son's expression, and then concluded that he really had no intention of marrying Murong Jiu, and couldn't help but sighed: "Yulang, I don't necessarily want you to marry Murong Jiu, but...but you are already 21. , marriage can't always be delayed like this."

Seeing his father's worried face, Jiang Yulang said with a smile, "Father, you must have forgotten that 21 is the age that is said to the outside world. I am only nineteen this year, so there is no need to rush this kind of thing."

Jiang Biehe was very helpless: "Oh, sometimes I even hope that you can go to brothels and eat some flower wine like those dudes. It's better than you are not close to women like you are now."

Jiang Yulang was also very helpless, and simply changed the subject bluntly: "The Murong Villa said that Murong Jiu was ill, but in fact she lost her soul. It is said that she was attacked by a ghost while collecting medicine in Emei, and thus became insane. , got separated from the people who accompanied her. Later, I was lucky enough to meet the owner of Palace Yaoyue and his party, and they were sent back to Murong Villa by the people of Yihua Palace."

Jiang Biehe also knew that his son didn't like to discuss this matter with him, so he followed his words and continued: "Recently, Yihua Palace suddenly sent someone to Murong Villa to send a letter to propose marriage, and the owner of Murong Villa also agreed to this marriage." At this point, he raised the corner of his mouth sarcastically.

Jiang Yulang said seriously: "This is exactly what I want to discuss with my father. Master Murong agreed to the marriage so presumptuously, is he trying to tear face with our Jiang family?"

Jiang Biehe said disdainfully: "Although the Murong family is powerful, I, a Jiangnan hero, am not a vegetarian. Of course he could look down on me ten years ago, but with my current status, he is not something he can easily offend. So I gave it to him." He gave him a big gift, which gave him a good excuse to withdraw from the marriage."

Jiang Yulang changed his mind and asked, "Didn't father use Yaoyue to do something?"

Jiang Biehe smiled: "Sure enough, it's my son, he guessed it right." But he deliberately didn't say what the big gift was.

Jiang Yulang didn't even ask, but nodded and said: "Since that's the case, we will go to Murong Villa now, and we can easily achieve our goal of getting married, but we need to spend some time on disturbing the marriage between Huangyihua Palace and Murong Villa. No, we must not allow Yihua Palace to have a chance to breathe through the marriage."

XXXXXXXXX

Two days later, the three of them came to Murong Villa together.

When meeting the old owner of Murong, the owner was extremely enthusiastic towards Jiang's father and son, but very indifferent towards Hua Wuque. After a few words, he ordered someone to lead him to the guest room to rest, leaving Jiang Biehe and Jiang Yulang to talk alone.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Jiang Biehe asked, "I heard that Miss Nine is ill. I don't know what the condition is. My son and I are very worried."

As soon as Mrs. Murong heard the word "sickness", she began to cry silently, while the old owner sighed and shook his head: "I'd better take you to see it." Some blunt words will not hurt the relationship between the two families.

Jiang Yulang had never entered Murong Jiu's boudoir before, only now did he know that her room was light blue, and the furnishings inside were very strange, the corners of the tables and chairs were wrapped with silk, and all the furnishings were made of wood.Although it is already autumn and the weather is getting colder, it is not too cold for a martial arts practitioner, but the earth dragon is already burning in this room, and it is so hot that people can't lift their spirits lazily.

Murong Jiu was standing quietly in front of the window, her figure was as slender as a phantom, as if a gust of wind could blow her away without a trace.

Seeing this situation, everyone felt sad for a while, Mrs. Murong couldn't help shedding tears again, and murmured: "My Jiu'er, why is your life so hard..."

Miss Murong hurriedly supported her mother and softly comforted her, while the second lady walked over and helped Murong Jiu to sit beside the bed.Jiang Yulang looked at it intently, and she frowned slightly, her big eyes seemed to be filled with smoke, she seemed to be looking at everyone, but at the same time she seemed to be looking at nothing, although she was born there, she looked like is dreaming.

Jiang Biehe already knew about Murong Jiu's condition, but now that he observed carefully, he couldn't tell whether she was faking it or was really sick, so he pretended not to know: "Master Jiu, Miss Jiu is..."

The owner of Murong Manor was very old, and sighed: "It's like this since I came back from Emei. I'm so dazed that I can't even recognize people. Sometimes I am as quiet as now, and sometimes I scream like crazy. Shouting and throwing things, we were afraid that she would hurt us, so we wrapped the tables and chairs with cloth. Many doctors were invited to see it, but they couldn’t explain why. I really don’t know what evil I did.” He paused After a pause, he said: "I think, let's let the marriage between our two families be over."

Jiang Biehe shook his head and said, "Master, please don't say the word 'give up' again. Jiang has been in the rivers and lakes for many years and has made little achievements. There is only one word 'righteousness' that is always in my heart. If today I agree to call off the marriage because of Nine Girls' illness , have you become an unrighteous person?"

Jiang Yulang on the side also said sincerely: "That's exactly the case. People don't have faith, they don't know what to do, Yulang is not talented, and he is willing to marry Nine Girls."

Everyone in the Murong family was very moved when they heard this, and Mrs. Murong cried even harder, holding Jiang Yulang's hand, she could barely cry, and said intermittently: "You are a good boy, but it's a pity that Jiu'er doesn't have this blessing... ...Why don't you have this blessing..."

Master Murong sighed, he seemed to be sighing all the time today.He looked at his nearly collapsed old wife, said to his daughters, "Take good care of your mother and Jiumei", and then turned to Jiang Biehe and his son, "Father and son Gao Yi, the Murong family will always be grateful to you." , I just have some words, please follow me to the study to discuss them in detail."

When they came to the study room, Master Murong stepped back, took out a letter, and handed it to Jiang Biehe. After Jiang Biehe quickly read it, he handed it to Jiang Yulang.

After the two of them read it, Murong Village Master took the letter away and said, "I will not hide this from Brother He. Although the marriage has not yet been settled, I have always regarded Yulang as my son-in-law. Jiuer is just a fool. I also thought about retiring the engagement, thinking not to hurt Yulang, but I really couldn't bear it. But now, I can only marry Jiu'er to Hua Wuque. That little miscellaneous looks harmless to humans and animals, but I didn't expect it to be a man with a beastly heart , have pity on my Jiuer, my Jiuer..."

His lips were trembling uncontrollably, obviously very angry and agitated, the Jiang family father and son looked at each other, Jiang Biehe first said: "Master, I think there must be some misunderstanding, Hua Shaoxia is an upright person, he would never do anything something like this happened."

Village Master Murong said coldly: "Yue Yue is his master, so why would he still pour dirty water on his apprentice?"

Jiang Biehe pondered and said: "This... I think that the palace master who invited the moon must have other secrets, so he lied about... well, between Mr. Hua and Miss Nine..." He purposely hesitated to say the following words.

Master Murong blushed, obviously extremely annoyed, thinking that his daughter might be taken advantage of by others, he was in a state of insanity, making him accept this marriage was like letting him swallow a bunch of flies alive.He jumped up against the case and said loudly: "Too much bullying, too much bullying!"

Jiang Yulang sighed at the side: "Yulang and Wuque are close friends, I dare to guarantee with my life, Hua Wuque is by no means a villain, but a gentleman with good manners, if the nine girls can marry him, I will definitely I can live a happy and smooth life." He frowned and continued: "I want to see Jiumei alone later and talk to her, I wonder if the owner can..."

Master Murong waved his hand: "Go ahead, you are a good boy, alas, it's a pity Jiumei doesn't have such a blessing..."

Jiang Yulang stood up and confessed his crime, and left his father to talk to the owner of Murong Village, while he himself went to Murong Nine Places for the second time.
