Sir, can you marry me?

Chapter 39

In front of the gate of Yushi Mansion, the four gatekeepers saw Xu Qian coming on horseback, and immediately came up to greet him and bowed, "Master Xu, didn't you ask for leave today to entertain relatives?" The guards hired by high-ranking officials were all from the army. The selected ones are recorded in the government. Although they have no official rank, ordinary people still have to call them adults when they see them.

"I have something to do when I come back." Xu Qian got off the horse, handed the reins of the horse in his hand to a servant, and said with a smile, "Guan San, has Mr. Yushi returned to the mansion?" followed.

"Master Yu Shi has returned to the mansion." Ding Guan San replied, tying the horse to the horse tethering stone outside the mansion gate.Mr. Xu Shiwei came back temporarily for business, and he might leave immediately, so he didn't sign the horse into the stable.

After hearing this, Xu Qian immediately entered the mansion, and walked quickly towards the study in the front yard of Yushi Mansion.As long as Lord Yushi is in the mansion, the guards are either in the guard lounge outside his study or in the martial arts training ground.

The five guards on duty today were all there, and they were a little surprised to see Xu Qian come back suddenly, and the guard who was most compatible with Xu Qian immediately smiled and asked, "Brother Xu, it's true, I don't feel at ease here because relatives are here."

"Go, go, I'll find Brother Zhao." Xu Qian said, walking in front of Zhao Mingtang who was wiping knives during the break, and said, "Brother Zhao, your mother asked me to take care of you. She is in a hurry, and you must do it before evening." Go home." No matter what, they rushed home to fetch the bride.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Mingtang raised his head and asked, a little surprised, he will be on duty in the middle of the night tonight, so he can't go back.Xu Qian's family and his family do not live in the same residential area, his mother can go to Yushi's mansion directly to find him if there is something to do, and there is no need to specially ask Xu Qian who is at home on vacation to pass on the message.

"Your mother knows that you will be on duty, so she wouldn't ask me to send a message if it wasn't urgent." Xu Qian smiled and said, "I met your old lady on the street. I ride fast, so I will send a message for her. "

Zhao Mingtang thought for a while, then turned to a guard and said, "Brother Liu Hua, how about you guarding me tonight? I'll buy you a drink."

Liu Hua's bodyguard, who was entrusted by him, immediately laughed, "Who are you and who is my brother? You need to buy a drink for the first shift? It's too strange." In the past two months or so, Brother Zhao often took the initiative to take the night on duty for others. They still owe him something.

Xu Qian laughed immediately, "Alcohol must be drunk." After a while, everyone drank the wedding wine together.

"Let's go, I don't think adults will go out at this hour." Xu Qian said.

"I'm going to report to your lord." Zhao Mingtang said, put the shiny knife back into the scabbard, got up and walked out of the lounge, came outside the study, and told a servant standing outside the study door.

The family member immediately went into the study to spread the word, and came out later and said: "Your Excellency understands. It's fine here, you can go home."

Zhao Mingtang nodded slightly, went back to the door of the lounge, cupped his hands and said, "Brothers, I'm going back right away, you've worked so hard."

The guards waved at him and said: "Brother Zhao, what's the matter with your family, don't be polite, just ask us." Brother Zhao's wife suddenly asked Brother Zhao to go back, and she couldn't wait until tomorrow, there must be something urgent and important.

"Yeah." Zhao Mingtang nodded, went to the stables to bring out the horse allocated to him by the censor, and left the censor's mansion with Xu Qian who was waiting for him.Xu Qian kept smiling all the time, and Zhao Mingtang felt that it was not a big deal for his old lady to ask him to go back suddenly.

It was almost evening at this time, pedestrians on the street went home one after another, and the shops began to count their goods, and they would close later.On the way, Xu Qian tentatively asked, "Brother Zhao, do you know Miss Chunxi?"

Zhao Mingtang was taken aback for a moment, and asked: "What happened to her again?" She was disfigured, so Mr. He hasn't given up on her yet?Rich men are inferior!
"My mother-in-law and I saw her this morning. She was bruised and dragged away by two maids." Xu Qian said, "She was resold by her master. Sigh, I don't know where she was resold."

"Why is she covered in injuries? Do you know which two maids dragged her away?" Zhao Mingtang reined in his horse abruptly, and his tone of voice unconsciously became urgent.Buying and selling slaves is a very normal thing, and he felt that it might not be a good thing for Chunxi to leave Yushifu at such a time.If he knew who those two prostitutes were, he could secretly intervene and let them sell Chunxi to a good family as a maid.

"I heard that her uncle wanted to take her room last night, but she refused, and was punished by her lady." Xu Qian found that the news of Chunxi could disturb the heart of Zhao Mingtang, who had always been silent and calm, and immediately felt sorry for her sudden surprise at that time. Fantastically satisfied.

The eldest daughter of Liu Yu, the governor of Huanglin, the eldest daughter-in-law of He Changqing, the left deputy capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the wife of He Junhua, the right young minister of Honglu Temple...

Mrs. He's identity information immediately flashed in Zhao Mingtang's mind.

Turning to look at Xu Qian, Zhao Mingtang frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "Since you saw it, why didn't you help her?" There was a trace of dissatisfaction hidden in his words.

Xu Qian immediately called out, "Brother Zhao, Miss Chunxi and I have never met before, and my mother-in-law has only met Miss Chunxi two or three times. Why should I help her? Buy her? Not to mention how much she bought out for her life. I can't afford a maid at home." He has a senior and a young child, and there is a stupid elder brother in the middle, and his dignified guards have to wrong his wife to work as a servant in the kitchen of Yushi's mansion.
