Chapter 121 I don't want this gentleman anymore
Fang Wan said: "Did you see it? My father beat it before I came to the capital. I still have it on my back. Do you want to see it?"

Lin Xing lowered his eyes slightly, Cao Yi didn't dare to look at Fang Wan.

Fang Wan pulled up her neckline and continued: "My father is cruel, whether he beats or not depends on his mood. I suffer this kind of beating three or four times a month. My mother was beaten to death by him."

"I don't care about the emperor's favor or not, and I don't care whether the man I want to marry has someone else in his heart, and I don't care about the calculations in the hearts of the elders. I just want to escape from that family and never see me again for the rest of my life." Father's face."

"Young master Zhiang has a gentle temperament. After marrying me, I will stay in the capital to honor my aunt. I won't bother with the matter of the young master outside."

Cao Yi slowly raised her eyes and said softly: "If it's just like this, I can let my mother find a way to settle you, and it doesn't have to be that I marry you."

Fang Wan smiled, "Do you think I just want to marry?" She turned her face away with a wry smile.

"I also have a younger brother who is only five years old. I married and left, but he will fall into the hands of my wife. If I can't find a husband with a strong family background, how can I protect my younger brother?"

"My mother was beaten to death by my father. My wife didn't even allow me to ask for medical advice. My mother held my hand before she died and asked me to take good care of our siblings. Princess, tell me, if I don't agree now My father, what will happen to our siblings?"

There was a long silence in the carriage. Lin Xingwei thought for a long time, but she had nothing to say about the tightness in her chest.

She looked at Cao Yi, and Cao Yi looked at Lin Xingwei apologetically. He tried to shake her hand, but was dodged.

"Both get out of the car, I'm going home." Lin Xingwei said.

After Fang Wan got off the car, Cao Yi was still unwilling to leave, he said anxiously: "Xingwei, I don't want that Miss Fang, I want you! It's useless for them to force me! I'd rather not want this official, I'll go back Go to the capital to teach children, anyway, I don't want to leave you."

With tears in Lin Xingwei's eyes, he cried and said, "Why is my luck so bad? I was married to Wei Mingji earlier, and there was a Chen Xinan, and this time when I was discussing marriage with you, another Fang Wan suddenly appeared. Want to be targeted by other women? Their purpose is exactly the same, they are all to cling to the powerful, and they are all forced by the father's order. Then what should I do?"

Did I stab the mistress?

Cao Yi made up his mind and said resolutely: "I'll go back and make it clear to my parents now, either let me abandon my official position and marry you, or let me die, anyway, I won't listen to that Master Fang again."

He reached out to push the car door, but Lin Xingwei held him back and said, "When my mother comes to see you, you should say the same at that time."

Cao Yi nodded, jumped out of the carriage and ran away quickly.

Luo Fu drove the carriage out of the deep alley. Lin Xingwei was anxious and didn't want to go home. She knocked on the wall of the carriage and shouted, "Find a tea house and sit down."

The carriage turned a corner and there was a market. There were many pastry shops, tea houses, and rouge shops. Luo Fu parked the carriage on the side of the road, and Lin Xingwei got out of the carriage wearing a veiled hat.

Luo Fu gave some money to the boy in the tea shop, asked him to help watch the carriage, and then followed Lin Xingwei into the tea house and up the stairs.

Lin Xingwei found a vacant seat by the window and ordered a pot of weak tea and a tray of refreshments. She wanted to finish the pot of tea before going home.

An actor downstairs was babbling and singing, but it was not as good as Guan Xingyun's singing, Lin Xingwei complained casually.

Luo Fu stood behind Lin Xingwei, and said softly: "Guan Gongzi is a frequent visitor to the noble banquet hall, how can the actors in such a small place compare with Guan Gongzi."

Lin Xingwei suddenly remembered that Guan Xingyun taught her qin, and she hadn't practiced qin for a long time.

In a daze, a figure in brocade clothes with a dark blue back pattern sat opposite Lin Xingwei. Lin Xingwei raised his head, and the smiling face of the other party was as beautiful as the clouds and mist on the distant mountains, which could only be seen from a distance but could not be touched.

Wei Mingji's voice was very reassuring, he said: "I saw your carriage downstairs, so I came up to have a look, and you are indeed here. This place... very few nobles come back."

Luo Fu tactfully whispered behind Lin Xingwei: "Princess, I'm waiting for you downstairs."

Cao Yi has a way out, and his princess has no way out.

Lin Xingwei turned over a teacup to Wei Mingji, poured it for him personally, and asked, "Is the general not on official business today? Why are you in plain clothes and don't even wear a mask?"

Wei Mingji smiled lightly and said: "I've been busy for several months on a case, and now it's almost over, His Majesty asked me to rest for three days. Why are you here alone, did you just come out from Cao's house?"

Lin Xingwei lowered his head and caressed the teacup without saying a word. After a long while, he said, "I will not divorce Cao Yi. My mother has asked my grandfather to come forward to deal with this matter."

Wei Mingji smiled and said: "You have also learned to use power to suppress others!"

"... Let me tell you a story. I met it five years ago when I was handling a case in Bingzhou. Fangxuan, the pastor of Bingzhou, wanted to give me a beautiful concubine. She secretly sent it to my room when I fell asleep drunk. Fortunately, I He was still a little sane, and immediately drove the beautiful concubine out. After waking up at dawn, he heard that the beautiful concubine could not bear the torture and hanged herself. There were also rumors that the woman was beaten to death and Fang Xuan deliberately made the illusion of hanging herself .”

Lin Xingwei got goosebumps all over his body, but he still insisted: "What does it matter to me if other people live or die? Fang Wan is Fang Xuan's own daughter, can you really beat her to death?"

Wei Mingji took a sip of tea and continued: "Fang Xuan wants to have a relationship with me. If I don't take him in the slightest, he won't be able to handle me. The Cao family took him, Zhuangyong and Hummer. If the marriage doesn't work out, Cao Yi will lose his job." It's a small matter, I'm afraid the Fang and Cao families will fight each other."

Covered by the veil, Wei Mingji couldn't see the expression on Lin Xingwei's face clearly, only the plain gauze on the veil was soaked.

Her shoulders were shaking slightly, she leaned against the wall helplessly, and turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window.

Seeing her forbearance, Wei Mingji didn't say anything, just looked at her quietly.

Lin Xing calmed down slightly, turned his face away, choked up and said, "I'm just not reconciled, why is my marriage so unsatisfactory, I obviously paid for it, I support Cao Yi wholeheartedly, why did I get such a result? "

Wei Mingji said: "It's not your fault, nor is it Cao Yi's fault, he was coerced by the officialdom and family, he couldn't help himself."

Lin Xing calmed down slightly, and looked out of the window through the apron to look at the sky.

It was almost noon, she didn't say anything, got up and silently bowed to Wei Mingji, then turned and went downstairs, and went home with a pair of red and swollen eyes.

In Qingsong Hall, Mrs. Hou was still arguing with Mrs. Ouyang, Cao Yi shrank and said nothing, Lin Huaifeng glared at Cao Yi angrily.

Lin Xingwei tidied up her appearance, stepped inside, saluted the three elders respectfully, and said, "Mother, Second Uncle, Mrs. Ouyang, I don't want this gentleman Cao Yi anymore."

Cao Yi blushed anxiously, got up and walked to Lin Xingwei, and asked, "Xingwei, what did you say? That's not what we said just now, why did you change after you went out?"

Lin Xingwei's eyes were red and swollen, and he said with a smile: "I figured it out, I don't want to embarrass you, I will still support you in whatever you do. You are an official, these are the prices you have to pay, I can't accompany you anymore. "

Mrs. Hou raised her brows with joy, "The princess has figured it out, my daughter is beautiful, and she can marry the proud son of the capital, why bother relying on Cao Yi!"

Mrs. Ouyang straightened up, frowned and said urgently: "I have already agreed with the Fang family, the girl from the Fang family will marry as a concubine, and You Ning will be the main wife. Why do you say such things?"

Madam Hou immediately said: "The son-in-law of the Lin family wants to take a concubine, but the ancestors of the Lin family do not agree!"
