A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

69 Escort

At this moment, Jian Xinghai looked at Yang Qingyun with sympathy in his eyes, as if he had already seen the green scenery above his head.

Yang Qingyun was content there, the happier he smiled, the more pitiful he felt for this person.

Qin Song's face suddenly sank.

Last time when they discussed this matter, he just laughed it off...

As long as Qi Huan doesn't enter his family's door, then it doesn't matter to him whoever she likes to marry.

Looking at the tacit understanding of their cousins ​​this night, and thinking about this possibility, he somehow felt that seeing these two people was an eyesore.

But he had to admit that what Jian Xinghai said was the truth.

After Qi Huan resigned from the marriage once, it was almost impossible to find a good husband's family who was well-matched, so marrying her back to the Yang family was the best choice for the Yang family.

The last time the Yang family came to him, although they didn't mention Qi Huan's indiscretion in private and slapped his family's face, but it can only be seen from the fact that the other party put all his eggs in one basket and gave up half of his family's wealth to find him in a hurry to discuss divorce...

In fact, Mrs. Yang is already panicking!
Therefore, Qin Song knows well——

She already knew about Qi Huan.

And it shouldn't be that she realized it on her own, but after the conflict at Wangxian Lake that day, Qi Huan took the initiative to be honest with her in order to seek her protection and a united front.

In this way, under the premise of knowing that her daughter has a fatal stain, Yang seems to have only this way to protect Qi Huan to the maximum extent.

and so……

That girl is so crazy and reckless, so confident, but in the end, she really wants to make her retreat completely?
What a joke!
Qin Song sneered: "When things come to light later, the Yang family will know the truth, I'm afraid they don't even have relatives to do."

Unhappy in his heart, he spoke somewhat eccentrically.

Jian Xinghai was very surprised: "Impossible? Master Hou, you asked your subordinates to check the property situation under Yang's name and the details of the Yang family. The initial information was that Yang had a total of four business lines. We divided the two equally, and the other two have been handed over to the Yang family in Changting town one after another in the past five or six years, and the son of Yang's parents will take care of them. But now, apart from the married aunt Yang, the Yang family, They have no foundation in the officialdom, at least for a short period of time they have to honor the Yang family. In this case, even if they suffer from being dumb, they don't have the confidence to turn against Yang's mother and daughter, right?"

Lord Hou, these words are all hinted by you in the past two days.

So, you didn't say that before, did you? !
Jian Xinghai thought that there was something wrong with his comprehension and analysis ability, so when he looked at his young master, he had a humble expression of asking for advice, extremely serious.

Qin Song was extremely annoyed by him, and gave him a hard look.

The more Jian Xinghai understood that his master was dissatisfied because of his wrong analysis of the problem, the more humble and sincere his attitude became.

Then—

How could Lord Qin Xiaohou say something wrong?
Qin Song looked away coldly, and Yudai still taunted: "You can't openly break up the relationship, but it doesn't mean that the relationship between relatives is still there."

Jian Xinghai suddenly realized: "Yes."

He looked at Yang Qingyun in the distance: "Even if he succeeds in the exam this time, the second son of the Yang family can enter the official position smoothly, but with his age and experience, if he wants to climb to the position where he can turn his wife's wife hostage, at least It will take more than ten or twenty years to start. And by then, I am afraid that the Qi family's old Marquis should have passed away long ago. Even if the Qi family is reduced to the earl's mansion, the wife of the eldest son will become the countess of the Qi family and no one can restrain her anymore. , the Yang family still has a hard time dealing with her."

Anyway, after thinking about it, if Yang Qingyun really marries Qi Huan, he will be a wimp for the rest of his life.

Jian Xinghai was born at the bottom, otherwise he would not have been sold to the Qin family as a servant at a young age. Thinking that it would not be easy for Yang Qingyun to get ahead, he really felt a little sympathetic.

In front of the gate of the Gongyuan, Yang Qingyun had already finished the body search and inspection, packed his things back into the basket, and turned to say goodbye to Yang's mother and daughter.

After making sure that there will be no more problems here, Qi Huan was completely relieved: "Then my mother and I will go back first, cousin, take care of yourself."

Yang Qingyun nodded, motioning for her to get in the car first.

Qi Huan didn't greet him politely, turned around and boarded the carriage as he said, and looked out the window.

Yang Qingyun grinned, and was about to turn around and go in...

Suddenly thought of something, turned back and shouted loudly: "Little cousin, remember to pick me up in nine days."

Qi Huan actually knew that he should still worry about his mother and daughter, and the mess left by the Qi family tonight, and reminded them in disguise that they must be safe and sound.

This is how relatives should always miss each other and care about each other.

She felt a little warm in her heart, so she raised her eyebrows and smiled; "Understood, I will pick you up on time then, in person!"

Only then was Yang Qingyun satisfied, waved his hand freely, turned around with his luggage and entered the gate of the Gongyuan.

Qi Huan retreated into the car.

Mrs. Yang told Mrs. Yun outside: "Go back."

Lady Yun sat on the shaft of the carriage, and Lao Jing drove the carriage straight to the other end of the street.

Looking at this scene, Jian Xinghai felt that Yang Qingyun looked like a second idiot who was sold out and was still giving money.

but--

Being sold like this, in fact, he didn't lose money, it was because Yang gave too much!

In the past few days, he investigated Yang's assets and found that the business lines in Yang's hands were indeed as she said. Although they were counted as her dowry, they were not written on the dowry list to the Qi family. The Qi family had no way to reveal the reason for the robbery.

And in fact, among the two that she handed back to the Yang family, the southeast one who ran overseas merchant ships was the most valuable among all.

If the weather is favorable and there are no shipwrecks or pirates robbing ships, the income on that line can be worth the sum of the remaining three lines.

Although these family fortunes were all left by Mrs. Yang after her death, in all fairness, if there was no Yang family to guard them these years, the orphans and widows of the Yang family would not be able to play with them in their hands, and they should have disappeared long ago.

Therefore, the Yang family is really willing to part with the Yang family.

In return, Yang Qingyun felt a little wronged, and it seemed reasonable to marry her daughter.

He was wishing to make excuses for Yang Qingyun, trying to cover up the color of the hat on his head, and then he heard Qin Song suddenly say: "The officialdom is not so easy to mess with, let's just see how the Yang family boy will try this time." The result."

Seeing that it was almost Qin Shuo's turn, as he said, he jumped out of the car with the hem of his robe lifted to make room for the servants to carry Qin Shuo's luggage.

Jian Xinghai looked at Su Qinnian, who was standing on the steps in front of the gate of the Gongyuan, with a dignified face, and thought again: "Didn't we find out that Taifu Su returned to Beijing this time, and by accident, he set up the team of Second Young Master Yang to go to Beijing?" Did you hitchhike? When I accompanied the Second Young Master to get the license plate, I heard other scholars discuss that Taifu Su looked at him very differently. Although Taifu Su has no party support in the court, His Majesty relies heavily on him. , if he has to support and pull him, maybe the second son of the Yang family is really lucky?"

Qin Song stood with his hands behind his back, watching the Qi family's carriage gradually turning out of the alley and disappearing in the distance, but he didn't take it seriously: "Then you should think about it, Su Qinnian, when did you see him bowing down for favors? A little bit It is just a small favor, he remembers, it is his human nature and conscience, it is absolutely impossible for him to use power for personal gain for the sake of mere favor."

As soon as he finished speaking here, Su Qinnian turned around expressionlessly and entered the Gongyuan courtyard.

On the other side, Qi Huan was sitting in the carriage returning home, feeling quite bored.

Yang's spirit has been strong for a while, and suddenly he relaxes, but he can't stand it anymore, and starts to frown and pinch the center of his brows, while muttering to himself: "I hope this child Yun'er will live up to it, this time the Chunwei meeting Good news!"

Knowing her expectations, Qi Huan echoed her voice: "Should...no problem, I think my cousin seems to have a plan in mind. In this kind of big exam, mentality is actually very important. He is not nervous, and his thinking can be clear when he writes the article first."

However, the success rate of the examination is not high. This time, more than [-] scholars competed for the [-] to [-] places, and the acceptance rate was less than [-]%.

And this kind of big test is not all about strength, but also a part of luck.

Qi Huan couldn't talk too much after thinking about it, so he tried to explain Yang first: "My cousin won't be crowned until next year. At his age, if he passed the provincial examination last year, he is already very good. In fact, he failed this year. It doesn't matter, it's not bad to accumulate test-taking experience for the coming year."

Yang Qingyun's reputation as a scholar was actually passed the exam at the age of fourteen. At that time, it was said that the ranking was very low, and he barely got the rear of the car.

After that, probably because of lack of confidence, I didn't go to the township test for several years in a row.

It was not until last year's provincial examination that he re-applied for the examination, and this time his results were very good, squeezing into the top five in the local area.

Qi Huan felt that the Yang family and the Yang family wanted to strike while the iron was hot, and quickly cleared up the relationship, signed him up, and won the quota for this year's exam.

But to be honest, people of his age have limited experience after all. It is fine to quote the classics and talk about military affairs on paper, but if you really want to talk about government affairs and even world affairs, I am afraid that the time is not enough.

"Your child is from a family, what do you know?" Yang always doted on her daughter, but this time she couldn't hear Qi Huan throwing cold water on her, so she gave her an angry look on the spot.

Of course Qi Huan didn't take it to heart, and joked directly: "Why didn't I realize before that mother, you and aunt are all official fans?"

I thought Yang Shi wanted to refute, but I didn't want to, but a dark and unclear emotion flashed in Yang Shi's eyes.

When Qi Huan wanted to capture it, he hadn't caught any traces.

I heard her say leisurely: "Being an official naturally has the benefits of being an official..."

Qi Huan felt that there was something in her words, so he couldn't help frowning, wanting to listen to her in detail.

As a result, Yang Shi and her stared at each other for a moment, but in the end he hesitated to speak: "You are a little girl, how can you understand these things."

Xu Shi really didn't want to discuss this topic with her daughter, she immediately changed the topic again, and her expression suddenly became a little ambiguous with relief: "I was thinking, if Yun'er can win this time, we will both Xilinmen, I'm going to find your aunt..."

"Mother!" Qi Huan was taken aback by her sudden arrival, and quickly cut off her unrealistic thoughts: "You must never mention the matter between me and my cousin."

Yang is not joking.

Her expression was very serious: "Looking at Marquis Wu Cheng's attitude today, there is basically no problem with the Qin family, and your age really shouldn't be delayed any longer. I see that you and Yun'er have gotten along well these days. There is nothing embarrassing about being a married woman. As for the benefits of marrying back to your uncle's house, I don't need to tell you more, right?"

This matter must be explained clearly to Yang Shi once, so as to completely dispel her thoughts.

Qi Huan also straightened his expression, and told her the truth straightly, and reasoned: "Mother, I know you are planning for my future, but didn't we say it before? My selfishness is ruined because of you." The friendship between us and my aunt for many years is not worth it. In fact, as long as my cousin can live up to his expectations and have a good future in the future, even if I don’t marry and go to the Yang family, just relying on the friendship between you and them, they will love you in the future Do your best to take care of me."

"How can things be as simple as you think?" Yang was caught in a dilemma, but still felt that her daughter's thinking was too simple, "When you get married, you will be someone else's family. After all, the Yang family is separated by a layer. If the name is not right and the words are not right, how can the name be right to support you?"

As for her mother's family, Qi's family, who could justly support her, Yang didn't have any hope at all, so she just ignored it.

Qi Huan made up his mind to persuade her once, so he went to her and hugged her coquettishly: "Then let's find someone whose family background is lower than uncle's, and when the time comes to bully others, we will take him to death!"

"Pfft..." Yang didn't hold back, and laughed out loud.

After laughing, I felt that it was really inappropriate for my daughter to joke about life-long events, so she scolded her with a straight face: "You talk nonsense again!"

"Didn't I just tell you what's in my heart?" Qi Huan began to torture her with a smug effort, "The relationship between me and my cousin is just brother and sister. I hope his good feelings are true, even if My mother doesn't care about offending or even blackmailing my aunt in the future, but I don't want to ruin the brother-sister relationship with my cousin over the years. Besides, if something about me really gets to their ears one day, what will they think of me? If I don't turn my back on me, I'm afraid it's a conflict in my heart. Are you willing to make me feel aggrieved and look at other people's faces to make do with it? I want to go with someone else's family, and my husband's family will show me the face. Aunt and cousin... I can't get rid of this layer of shame. So, mother, think carefully, if you really want to force me to marry my cousin, will it help me or hurt me?"

People tend to be self-interested, even if they are unreasonable, they can still win three points, not to mention that this is an environment where a higher official overwhelms people to death.

In fact, from the bottom of her heart, Yang admitted that Qi Huan was right. Given her current situation, only a low marriage is the safest and safest option.

What do women want to marry?Their mother and daughter are not short of silver envoys, aren't they just trying to live their lives in peace and stability?
If you marry a family that you can handle safely, your daughter will be guaranteed for a lifetime.

If in the past, when Qi Huan was sick and precarious, she might just grit her teeth and close her eyes, and just make do with it.

But now, looking at the smart and energetic daughter in front of her, she always makes her feel reconciled. If she is not reconciled, she just finds an ordinary family and sends her daughter away for the rest of her life.

But regarding the Yang family...

Qi Huan insisted on objecting again and again, but she knew that she could no longer force it.

So, he took his daughter's hand and held it in his palm, and sighed: "If you really don't like the matter with the Yang family, then forget it. As for... forget it, anyway, I'm not in a hurry, I'd better wait to get Qin Qin out of the way first." Let's talk about it after bringing back the marriage certificate from the family."

Hearing that she finally gave the right words, Qi Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just at this moment, I heard a crisp sound of horseshoes coming from behind. Judging from the sound, it should be a team of people.

Qi Huan could feel Lao Jing deliberately driving the carriage to the side of the road.

Yang's mother and daughter were talking on their own, but they didn't take it seriously.

Unexpectedly, after the sound of horseshoes approaching, he actually slowed down, and Youdao asked politely, "Is it the driver of the Marquis of Changning?"

It was Mrs. Yun who answered from the outside: "It's my family's wife who is going to send my cousin to take the exam and is about to go back to the house. It seems that you are also coming from the direction of the Gongyuan. It should be the imperial forest army on duty at the Gongyuan tonight? I don't know if we are..."

The Imperial Forest Army is the guard of the palace city, and all the errands assigned by the emperor to go out of the palace are errands. Even the officials and eunuchs seldom get along with them.

The Royal Forest Army suddenly took the initiative to find the door...

Yang couldn't help being nervous.

The person outside must have sensed Lady Yun's uneasiness, and quickly explained: "My lady, don't get me wrong. We just saw the family emblem on the carriage and asked casually. Since it's the family members of the family who are traveling...it just so happens that we are in this group I want to go back to the palace to change defenses, so I will go with you and escort you along the way."

Lady Yun didn't reply right away, she was obviously hesitant to agree.

For the sake of caution, Yang opened the curtain and looked out: "Thank you for the kindness of the general, but our horses and carriages are moving slowly. I wonder if it will delay your business trip?"

Qi Huan also glanced outside from behind her.

He was a square-faced man in his thirties, with a heroic look on his face, and he spoke bluntly, but...

The attitude is also really polite.

She had never seen this person before, but since it was the Imperial Forest Army from the Gong Yuan, it must be that Gu Shizi's subordinate.

Facing Yang, the man was also polite with a soldier's air that was neither humble nor overbearing: "It's just on the way, Mrs. Shizi don't have to worry about it. You should be more careful when you go out with the female relatives in the mansion."

His words have come to this point, if Yang shirks again, it will be true and he will not know what is good or bad.

Therefore, she readily agreed: "Then I'll take care of it. I was in a hurry to go out, and I really forgot to bring a few more guards with me."

It's not suitable for her to appear in public for a long time, so she put down the curtains and returned to the car after she finished speaking.

But I wondered in my heart: "These royal guards have always looked above the top, what's going on today?"

Qi Huan lowered his head and touched his purse with a guilty conscience, and didn't dare to answer.

Now she really couldn't figure out what that Gu Shizi meant. He rescued her, sent tokens for her self-defense, and now specially ordered his subordinates to chase them and escort their mother and daughter home?
When it comes to being courteous, of course she is not so presumptuous and cheeky, but if this rhythm is not over-interpreted...

No matter how you look at it, it really seems to be pursuing!
　Gu Shizi is probably going to take down his mother-in-law silently first, but Qin Xiaohou is still trying to die -_-||
