"You...do you understand?" Mrs. Xu was startled, and said in amazement: "If you are not guilty of any crime, the Xu family can have a place for you."

She temporarily suppressed the matter of taking concubines. After all, compared with taking concubines, the huge dowry of the Chu family is the most important thing, and it is the last thing they can give up.

"Is that what Mrs. Xu means?" Chu Ning pretended to be enlightened.

Mrs. Xu's expression relaxed after hearing this, but Xu Chengxuan's complexion was still not good.

"Give me a place to stay?" Chu Ning laughed in a low voice, revealing a bit of self-mockery. "Back then, my Chu family's Wanguan family wealth was married into your house as a dowry. Just a box of dowry could buy the entire Xu family. Now I still need you, Mrs. Xu... to give me a place to live?"

"You..." Mrs. Xu suddenly panicked.She used to threaten Chu Ning by taking a concubine and divorcing her wife, and it worked every time, making her think that as long as she grasped this point, she could manipulate Chu Ning casually.

But she forgot that if a person is unwilling to compromise, no matter what conditions are put forward to keep him... it will be useless.

"If you don't want to come back, the Xu family can't force it. It's just that you were abandoned and have no heirs for many years. It's really unfilial. It's fine if you don't compensate Xuan'er. It's really a shame that you plan to take money from the Xu family." It's unreasonable." Mrs. Xu yelled anxiously.

"Mother!" Chu Ning didn't move, but Xu Chengxuan reacted greatly and stopped Mrs. Xu from speaking.

"Shut up! I'm the mistress of the Xu family for a day, and you, as a son, must listen to me!" Mrs. Xu glared at her son, telling him not to worry about it.She knew her son, although he listened to her on weekdays, he was always acting like a gentleman, and he couldn't rub the sand in his eyes.

When Xu Chengxuan shut up, she looked at Chu Ning again and said, "Of course you keep your dowry yourself. Our Xu family has never seen it before, so why ask us for it!"

In this situation... the Xu family wants to steal his dowry?Chu Ning was already very disappointed with the Xu family, but she never thought that the Xu family could do even more disgraceful things.Just as he was about to open his mouth, he heard commotion outside the front hall.

"Who are you! How dare you force your way into a private house! Don't enter again, you will enter the reporter again!"

"Quick, quick! Tell the old lady and your lord!"

The three people in the front hall looked out one after another, five or six servants were blocking them in front, a young man in light armor rushed forward, and pushed down the blocking servants with just two or three blows.

The young man was tall and slender, with tall legs and long legs, and a tall and straight figure, he jumped into the front hall in a few steps.He looked around, his eyes lit up when he saw Chu Ning, and he knelt down facing Chu Ning.

"General! The future is late!" The young man's voice was sonorous and powerful, and he was obviously also a member of the army.

Chu Ning knew this person, he was Du Jingqin, the deputy commander of the Beijing Imperial Army.Five years ago, he went to the Zhenbei Army stationed in the northern border for training, and happened to be Chu Ning's deputy general.Later, he was transferred back to the capital and became the deputy commander of the defense of Gyeonggi.

"Deputy Commander Du, please hurry up...I'm no longer a general, so I don't need to salute anymore..." Chu Ning didn't expect to see Du Jingqin here, let alone break into Xu's house by force.He hurried to help, but saw Du Jingqin kowtow firmly before standing up.

"Although the general's charges have not been cleared, you are still the general of the Zhenbei Army, and the person most respected by the last general!" Du Jingqin seemed to recall something, and a longing look appeared in his eyes. "The days of fighting with you were truly joyful."

In front of Xu's family, Chu Ning looked a little embarrassed, and quickly interrupted, "Why are you here?"

Only then did Du Jingqin suddenly realize his responsibilities. "The last general was ordered to take you back to the Chu family for confinement, and by the way...bring over a copy of your dowry form in Jingzhao Mansion." When he mentioned the dowry list, he glanced contemptuously at the two of the Xu family, with disdain in his eyes. The meaning is obvious.

While talking, two groups of infantry came in from outside and stood guard near the front hall.The infantry team didn't speak, just stood in the yard and stood at attention.

These infantry are well-trained, and some even have been on the battlefield, which looks very scary.

"You...! What do you mean!" Mrs. Xu had never seen such a scene before, her legs became weak from fright, and she pointed at Chu Ning and yelled. "You still want to rob my Xu family's property by force? Are you still sending people to arrest us? My son is an official of the imperial court. Why do you just break into the house and arrest people when you are waiting for a crime!"

"This is for me, Mrs. Xu...why are you guilty?" Chu Ning's face showed a hint of sarcasm.

He didn't want to be so ugly. Although he was divorced, he wanted to give both parties a face. After all, they were considered family friends, but the Xu family was not as good as the previous generation.

"You...!" Madam Xu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xu Chengxuan.

"That's enough! Mother!" Xu Chengxuan slapped the armrest of the chair abruptly. With a stern look on his face, he gave Chu Ning a cold look, and then glared at Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Xu has always been tough on her son, but seeing that Xu Chengxuan was already angry, she had no choice but to shrink back on the chair and dare not speak anymore.

"Since you have made up your mind, I will not make it difficult for you. This is your dowry, and the Xu family will not swallow it for no reason. The dowry objects, land and shops are still there, and the rest of the dowry gold and silver will be counted as soon as possible and sent back to the Chu family. " Xu Chengxuan spoke very slowly, he was thinking and looking at his wife.

The young man in front of him was as slender as jade, standing tall and straight, dressed in white and wearing a golden crown, no matter how you looked at him, he looked like a picturesque young man.A pair of beautiful phoenix eyes seem to be able to speak, so clear that it almost makes people fall.

It's just that the young man in front of him...has been abandoned by him, and he seems to have never noticed the beauty of his little wife.

This time was also the last time, and it was the first time in eight years that he looked at Chu Ning so seriously.

Xu Chengxuan met Chu Ning for the first time when he was 17 years old, and the first meeting was an engagement.The young man is clean and lively, with fresh clothes and angry horses.Riding on a horse in white clothes, he galloped across the grass, and the horse jumped onto the grass before it stopped, just in front of him.

He has been studying since he was a child and has no equestrian skills. He was shocked just like his mother.

It was only later that I found out that this young man in fresh clothes and angry horses was his little wife.

It's just that his little wife is good everywhere, but she is a man. When he was 15 years old, he once saw a beautiful little girl. The little girl Wenwen sat quietly on a chair, looking around curiously, like a white and beautiful porcelain doll.

Since then, he has been obsessed with dreams, so that he can only accept women with delicate bodies and soft bodies, and doesn't like men, even Kun Jun.So from the day they got married, they never touched Chu Ning.

For a year, he and Chu Ning respected each other as if he had no wife.Madam Xu and the servants all knew that he didn't like Chu Ning, so they didn't show much respect to Chu Ning.

It wasn't until Chu Ning went out for more than five days that he asked about the young lady who hadn't seen him for a long time during the banquet, but found that no one knew where Chu Ning had gone.

Later... Chu Ning almost never went back to Xu's house.I come back once in a while, and I only stay for one night during the Chinese New Year, and then leave again the next day.

He doesn't like Chu Ning, and he can't take concubines.So when Chu Ning was escorted back to Beijing, he obeyed his mother's arrangement...and wrote a divorce letter.

"There is a dowry list, Master Xu will not lie if you think about it. Then I will wait for the Xu family's return team at the Chu Mansion." Chu Ning nodded slightly as a salute, and turned away without waiting for Xu Chengxuan to speak again.

Chu Ning went out, and Du Jingqin hurriedly led others to go out too.This group of people said it was to prevent Chu Ning from escaping, but in fact it was to protect Chu Ning's safety.

When Chu Ning came out from Xu's house, the carriage that Zhifei picked him up was still parked by the side of the road.It's just that Zhi Fei is not there, standing beside the carriage is Chang Ming who has served him since childhood.

As soon as Chang Ming saw Chu Ning, he rushed over, and the rather big one actually started crying.

"Chang Ming almost thought that he would never see the general again!" Chang Ming said weeping. "Master, let's take Changming with him in the future! Even if something happens, Changming is willing to face it with the young master."

Chang Ming came from the Chu family to serve Chu Ning personally. They have been together since childhood, only when Chu Ning was guarding the northern border, she did not bring Chang Ming with her and left him at the Xu family.

"How grown up, you still cry like a child." Chu Ning's eyes were slightly sore when she saw Chang Ming, but she tried not to cry. "Why are you here?"

"Master, get in the car first, let's go back to Chu's house." Chang Ming looked around vigilantly, and motioned Chu Ning to get in the car first.

As soon as the two got into the car, Du Jingqin asked the soldiers to open the way, and the group headed back to Chu's house in a mighty manner.

"A few days ago, Master Xie from the Xie family called me out, saying that he could rescue you, and even showed me the divorce letter from the Xu family." Chang Ming wiped away his tears and said. "Although I can't believe it, I really can't save you, so I have no choice but to follow Mr. Xie with half-belief."

A few days ago... It was about the time when I entered the prison to look for him.Chu Ning lowered her head and thought about it.

"The Xu family just treats our master and servant as non-existent, so I can get away. It's just that I haven't heard from the young master. Mr. Xie just asked me to take someone to clean out the Chu family, and... and..." said Behind, Chang Ming glanced at Chu Ning hesitantly, but did not continue.

"What else?" Chu Ning felt puzzled, "There is nothing we can't talk about."

"And...Master Xie wants to leave your dowry list and your...registration deed in the household registration office." After speaking, Chang Ming turned his head and looked away, not daring to look directly at Chu Ning, but he already had something in his heart. Suspect.

The dowry list... Isn't that what Deputy Commander Du just took?It turned out to be taken from Xie Heng?Just now Du Jingqin went to help, could it be Xie Heng's instruction?There is also the registration deed from the household registration office, that is...

Since there was no one in the Chu family, Chu Ning handled the etiquette procedures for her marriage by herself.This includes merging the deeds of the two married people together and filling them out into one.

Xie Heng wants to leave his citizenship deed because he intends to...

Really marry him?

Chu Ning's heart tightened, and she felt more and more that the young man in black was unfathomable.

The master and servant were talking, and the carriage had already arrived at the gate of the Chu Mansion. Du Jingqin reminded them that they had arrived, and lifted the curtain of the carriage by the way.

Chu Ning got out of the carriage, and when she looked up, she saw the two big characters of Chu House hanging on the door, and the plaque was wiped clean by the servants, making it shiny.The door is also clean, and there are even servants guarding the door.

It was as if the dilapidation and neglect for so many years did not exist.

Chu Ning subconsciously quickened her pace, and Chang Ming followed behind.The master and servant moved forward as if they had grown wings, wanting to touch their own home.

Soon in front of the gate, the red gate was repainted, revealing the elegance and luxury of the year.

Chu Ning pushed the door suddenly, and saw Xie Heng standing not far from the door, as if she heard a voice and raised her head to look at the door.He didn't expect that there was someone at the door, so he couldn't hold back his strength to move forward, and bumped into Xie Heng's arms directly.

I don't know why Xie Heng is so proficient, he immediately hugged the person who rushed over.
