Son as Wife

Chapter 16

 Mr. An Guo was already in a bad mood, but at this moment, someone came to find fault with him and poured dirty water on him. He immediately said angrily: "It's nonsense, then Zhao Xian left the mansion without even having enough time to have a cup of tea, Shu'er never saw him. I have seen him before, and what happened to Shuer later has nothing to do with him, what does his being beaten

have anything to do with our government?" Even if there are such rumors, Zhao Xian himself is very clear whether the rumors are true or not? ? Could it be that Zhao Xian was beaten dumb or dumb by someone, he didn't know what he did or didn't do, and he couldn't say it?

"My lord, the Marquis of Yongchang is still making noise outside and has already attracted a lot of people. What do you think should be done?" Yan Zhong wiped off the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, feeling a little worried in his heart. The two young masters in the mansion The lady's matter has not been resolved yet, and now the Marquis of Yongchang is here to add to the chaos. I really don't know if their Duke's mansion has had a bad year recently?

"This rascal - let's go, I want to see what he is going to do!" Although I felt that something was wrong suddenly, but now people are making trouble at the door, and An Guogong can't let it go, so he flicked his sleeves, his face full of anger strode towards the main entrance.

"Zhao Daoyuan, where do you think my Yan family is, you are allowed to act like this!" Angrily came to the gate, seeing Yongchang Hou with his entourage talking nonsense to the surrounding people outside the gate, An Guogong was furious and accused Yongchang Hou said: "If you talk nonsense again, don't blame me for going before the emperor and suing you for slandering the court officials!"

"Go and go. You beat my son until he is still unconscious. Your Majesty, give me justice." Xu Shi believed that An Guogong was the murderer of his son, and Marquis Yongchang showed no fear at all, and even yelled louder than An Guogong.

Hearing that Zhao Xian was unconscious, Duke An couldn't help saying that it was true, if Zhao Xian failed to clarify the rumors with Marquis Yongchang because of coma, then Marquis Yongchang's move today is understandable.

Thinking of this, Duke An's anger subsided, but his face was still full of anger, and said: "Yongchang Hou, I sympathize with your son's injury, but the matter of your son has nothing to do with our government. He came to my house, but after he put down the congratulatory gift, he left without waiting for the banquet to open, let alone the rumored incident, which is completely nonsense, how could I send someone to hurt the son? If you continue to The entanglement in front of my mansion will only let the real murderer go free."

Yongchang Hou was not persuaded by An Guogong, and said: "Master Yan, as the saying goes, there is no wind without waves, so the rumors cannot come out of thin air for no reason, and your An Guogong's mansion It was already involved in it, but only your family's words, how can you prove that everything you said is true, and not fabricated by you to clear up the guilt of killing my son?"

"All the guests who came to my house that day can testify , if you don't believe me, you can go and ask." An Guogong replied loudly with a clear conscience.

But Yongchang Hou said: "Do you think I haven't asked?"

Although he has no skills, he is not an impulsive person. Therefore, after he heard the rumors, he asked several families who were friends with them and also went to the birthday banquet of the Duke's Mansion that day, but the answer he got was that they were indeed not at the birthday banquet. Zhao Xian was seen, but no one saw Zhao Xian leave the Duke's Mansion.

However, during this period, someone mentioned that not long after the meeting started, Yan Jingshu first left the meeting and disappeared, and not long after, An Guogong also left the meeting suddenly with a strange expression. Although An Guogong came back shortly afterwards, Yan Jingshu never appeared again. When they asked about it when the banquet was over, An Guogong said that Yan Jingshu was not feeling well and was ill.

Hearing this, Marquis Yongchang, who still couldn't believe that his son had the guts to hook up with Duke An's son, immediately lost any hesitation, and immediately brought his people to the Duke's mansion.

After Yongchang Hou finished speaking, An Guogong couldn't help but feel a little tricky. On the day of the banquet, Yan Jingshu's strange behavior with himself, Zhao Xian's inexplicable injury, and the rumors linking Yan Jingshu and Zhao Xian, among them, Duke An could clearly see the truth, but from the perspective of others, No matter how reasonable and logical it is, it is no wonder that Marquis Yongchang is so sure that he was the one who injured Zhao Xian.

In fact, it is not difficult to solve this matter. The source of everything lies in that rumor, and that rumor itself is false, as long as Kou Shijun, who knows the truth and inside information, is asked to clarify, but in this way, the general Not to mention the involvement of the government, the matter of Yan Jingshu and Jiang Chenghan might not be kept secret.

Thinking of this, An Guogong couldn't help but feel extremely embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Marquis Yongchang suddenly softened his expression, and said: "Oh, Mr. Yan, you and I have been a family for many years, and I didn't want to make such an ugly mess and hurt the dignity of the two families. It's just that my son is like this now, and I A father can't stand by and let him suffer so much for nothing, I think Master Yan can understand my feelings..."

An Guogong didn't say anything, he just watched Yongchang Hou quietly waiting for his next words.

Sure enough, Hou Yongchang then said: "...it's just what it is now, instead of allowing rumors to ruin the friendship between our two houses, I have a way, maybe we can turn our two families into friendship."

An Guogong Still not answering, Yongchang Hou couldn't help being a little embarrassed, but now that he has reached this point, he still has to say what he should say, otherwise it won't be a waste of time, so he paused, and then said: "...I would like to speak for me. That worthless son proposed marriage to Lord Yan, and asked to marry Lord Yan's second son, the Second Young Master Yan..."

"You're dreaming!" This time, before Marquis Yongchang could finish his sentence, Duke An could not bear to stop him .

He had already guessed that Marquis Yongchang must have a plan for this incident, otherwise, if it was really just to seek justice for his son, he could directly report to the officials, or even sue the emperor, so why bother to talk to him here .

It's just that now that the matter has become known to everyone, it must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise Yan Jingshu will suffer the most from the rumors, so I want to hear what he has to say, and it doesn't matter if I don't agree too much. After all, it was his daughter who made the crime. It would be great if today's matter could be resolved without bothering Kou Shijun.

But he didn't expect that Marquis Yongchang would have his idea on Yan Jingshu's head! Not to mention that he would never let Yan Jingshu marry, even if he did, he would definitely not marry Zhao Xian, a dissolute and incompetent dude who does not cultivate personal virtues.

"I have already said that your son's matter has nothing to do with the government of our country. Believe it or not, you can report it to the official or file a court case. I, Yan Zhongkun, will accompany you to the end-close the door!" After finishing speaking, An Guogong turned around. walk away.

The gate of An Guogong's mansion slammed shut, shutting the discussion of Marquis Yongchang and the people watching outside the gate.

Back at Canglan Courtyard, Mrs. Xie saw that Mr. An's face was very ugly, so he naturally wanted to ask, so Mr. An suppressed his anger and told her what happened to Marquis Yongchang.

Mrs. Xie was also annoyed at once, and said: "Then Zhao Xian has offended someone somewhere, he wants to blame us, but he dares to pretend to be a book, Yongchang Hou is really arrogant! It's just..."

What did he think of , Xie said with some concern: "...but if Marquis Yongchang really believes that we hurt Zhao Xian, that's fine. As long as we find the real culprit, we will be able to prove our innocence. I'm just afraid, afraid that if Yongchang Hou came here for Shu'er, and the person who hurt Zhao Xian may never be found, so what should

I do?" The solution is to ask General Kou to come forward and help explain the matter clearly. It's just that if you involve too much in this way, it may make the matter worse, and I'm afraid that Shu'er's matter will not be concealed." An Guogong shook his head, thinking that in just a few days, he might have sighed more than in the past few decades.

Xie opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to do, so he just sighed.



In distress, Duke An couldn't help thinking of the culprit that caused all this, and asked Mrs. Xie: "By the way, what's going on with Yu'er ? Is it better?" : "It's still the same, it's okay when it's daytime, but it's terribly frightening at night, and you have to drink tranquilizers to fall asleep at night. Even so, you always wake up from nightmares, and you can't live without people for a moment."

"...then Take good care of her, if it really doesn't work, then find another doctor." An Guogong frowned and said, now that he has to deal with the mess Yan Jingyu has caused, he is really not in the mood to see Yan Jingyu.

Hearing An Guogong's impatience, Xie's eyes darkened, but he could only respond.

An Guogong said again: "I'm going to my mother's place, and I have to let my mother know about this matter. She is a well-informed old man, so she may be able to find a way." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Mrs. Xie to say anything, he got up and left the house.

In Mingxuan, Yan Jingshu also learned about what happened in front of the gate of the Duke's Mansion from the subordinates.

"Master, what should I do? The second son of the Yongchang Marquis's birthday party didn't see the young master that day, how could it be... They are clearly slandering you—" Chuntao said angrily.

Yan Jingshu had already guessed that Mrs. Xie would make a move, and had been waiting for these few days, and Mrs. Xie did not disappoint him. Today, the Marquis of Yongchang came to the door to make a big fuss. It should be Xie's handwriting.

For this, Yan Jingshu, who had expected it for a long time, was naturally not as excited as Chuntao, and just said lightly: "I see, you go down."

Chuntao wanted to say something more, but when thinking of these days, her temper suddenly became a little cold Unpredictable, Yan Jingshu, who was not as gentle and generous as before, did not dare to speak again, and retreated after saluting.
