Traveling through books to ancient times, I provoke the love of villains and powerful ministers

Li Wenkang lingered at the door of his house for a long time, not knowing how to explain to his family the wronged matter of retiring the engagement.

Until Li Yuanhao and Qi Yunming came back from school and saw Li Wenkang wandering by the door.

"father."

"uncle."

Both of them called to him at the same time.

Li Wenkang forced a smile at the two of them: "School is over?"

Li Yuanhao said: "Why are you standing at the door and not entering the house?"

Entering the house, he really wanted to go in, but he really didn't have the face to go in and see his niece because of what he did today.

Li Yuanhao and Qi Yunming go to and from school together all the time, and now the two brothers are very familiar with each other and have a tacit understanding.

Li Yuanhao looked at Qi Yunming with a look, and Qi Yunming immediately understood what his cousin meant, and the two walked to Li Wenkang's side, took Li Wenkang's arm from left to right, and dragged him into the house.

In the main hall, Mrs. Guo was cheerfully chatting casually with some girls in the family about the fabric of the clothes.

Chatting and chatting, Mrs. Guo glanced at the sky outside, it was so late, Li Yuanzhe had already returned from the barracks, why their general hadn't left the yamen yet.

Just as Mrs. Guo finished chanting in her heart, she saw Li Wenkang being held back by two children, one on the left and one on the right, and said nervously, "What's wrong? Is this drinking again?"

Li Wenkang took his hand out of the arms of the two boys, touched his nose, and cleared his throat again: "I didn't drink."

Guo and Li Wenkang have been married for so many years, so they know Li Wenkang's little tricks very well.

No wonder her general came back so late today, he must have done something bad to dare not come home.

Li Wenkang walked up to Qi Qingxi uncomfortably, not knowing how to speak.

Mrs. Guo took out a bright yellow imperial decree and put it in Li Wenkang's hand: "Open it and have a look."

No matter what bad things her master has done, today is a happy event for her niece and daughter. If there is anything to do, let the husband and wife go back to the house and talk about it in private.

Li Wenkang was stunned for a moment, then opened the imperial decree in his hand.

In accordance with the fate of heaven, the emperor said: Gu Zicong, the deputy governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, has a noble character and attaches great importance to both civil and military affairs. Now he has passed the year of weak crown.Today, there is Qi Qingxi, the niece of Li Wenkang, commander of the Jingwei, who is dignified in appearance, beautiful and intelligent, so I decree to bestow a marriage for the two, and choose an auspicious day for the wedding.This!

When Li Wenkang saw the imperial edict, he pointed to the imperial edict in his hand in disbelief.

Guo also asked someone to bring up the silk jewelry that the emperor gave Qi Qingxi for Li Wenkang to have a look at.

When Li Wenkang saw these things, he almost yelled out happily. He thought that the matter had been messed up, and he had no face to see his niece again, and he didn't even dare to go home.

It turned out that the moment he left the imperial study, the emperor had already prepared the things and delivered them to his home. Li Wenkang was so happy.

Holding the imperial decree, he said, "Okay, okay."

"Let's put these things together in Qingxi's dowry." Mrs. Guo pointed to those silk jewelry.

The marriage decree came down, and almost everything that should be prepared had to be prepared quickly.

Qi Qingxi became a little puzzled. Didn't Gu Yu ask the emperor to marry him?Why came another marriage decree, even though it still had her and Gu Yu's names on it, but she didn't understand.

When Qi Qingxi fell into deep thought, Li Wenkang had already sat down comfortably, drinking hot tea comfortably.

After taking a sip of hot tea, I feel comfortable all over.

He looked at Qi Qingxi and said slowly: "Your cousin has already told me about meeting King An in Changxing Marquis Mansion yesterday, and having suffered such a great grievance, uncle naturally has to sue the emperor and ask the emperor to make decisions for us. I just said that the emperor can't let us suffer this boring loss, you see, the compensation will come soon."

Qi Qingxi was taken aback when he heard this, and then realized that this is how the marriage decree and the rewards came from.

Qi Qingxi was a little moved.

In fact, she didn't think that what happened yesterday was a big deal.

In the past, she had encountered more rascals than this, and some even wanted to make a move, but at that time, no one was protecting her, and it was all up to her wit to resolve it.

But now, first Gu Yu protected her behind her, then her cousin beat someone up for her, and her uncle even sued the emperor to let the emperor decide for her.

There was also my aunt, Guo Shi, who was so happy when she received the imperial decree just now, and then held her hand and told her what dowry had been prepared for her.

These are people who love her sincerely, Qi Qingxi feels very happy.

So she can't let hypocrites like Li Qiming ruin her current happiness.

The news that the emperor gave Gu Yu and Qi Qingxi a marriage quickly spread throughout the capital.

Those boudoir ladies in the capital who admired Gu Zicong gritted their teeth with hatred.

Gu Zicong, a fairy-like figure, is matched with such a cousin who has been divorced and lives in his uncle's house. Everyone feels worthless for Gu Zicong.

This includes Wang Yan, the youngest niece of Mrs. Wang's natal family in Changxing Hou.

"Before, I thought she was a good person, and I felt pity for her experience of being divorced. Who knew that she would seduce Cousin Zicong in the blink of an eye."

After attending the wedding of her cousin Shen Zheng, Wang Yan did not rush home, but stayed in the Marquis of Changxing.

Because Wang Yan has also reached Jiji's age, her parents hope to take advantage of this opportunity to let Wang's help in choosing a good son-in-law in the capital.

Wang Yan's father and the Wang family are direct brothers and sisters of the same mother. If the elder brother has a request, the Wang family will naturally fully support it.

Sitting in the garden of Changxing Hou Mansion, Wang Yan and her fifth sister, Wang Shu, angrily talked to Wang Shu about Qi Qingxi.

It's not that she hates Qi Qingxi, nor is it that she hates Qi Qingxi because she likes Gu Zicong.

Rather, she felt that her second sister was the only woman in this world who was worthy of Gu Zicong.

It just so happened that Qi Qingxi was invited by Zhao Jingwan, the wife of the prince of the Marquis Mansion, to be a guest at the Changxing Marquis Mansion, and the two of them happened to be strolling in the garden when they heard this.

Zhao Jingwan is a person who can't rub the sand in her eyes, and she will rush out immediately to teach this crazy lady a lesson.

Qi Qingxi hurriedly pulled her back: "No rush."

She wanted to hear what the two of them had to say first.

Across a stone wall, Wang Yan's voice sounded again: "If it wasn't for the second elder sister who had a marriage contract with someone from her mother's womb, she would definitely be married to cousin Zi Cong after she reached Ji, so why would her surname be Qi?" Yes. Then again, I’ve watched this Qi for a long time, but I think he looks somewhat similar to my second sister..."

Zhao Jingwan glanced at Qi Qingxi, Qi Qingxi smiled at her, indicating that she was fine.

"Oh..." Wang Yan suddenly realized, "The reason why Cousin Zi Cong fell in love with that surnamed Qi is because she looks like the second sister. If he can't marry the second sister, he will settle for the second best and marry a fake one back home. .”
