In my previous life, I killed my whole family. In my next life, I killed the royal family.

The official media He Dazui saw that the eldest lady and the eldest grandmother of the Qi Mansion were polite to others, so he gave her generous rewards regardless of whether she succeeded or not, and did his best to keep an eye on the Qi Mansion.

She would hint at which of those who came to propose marriage had a concubine and which one was a drunkard and a womanizer.

Although these official media have a low status, they can find out things that are deliberately concealed.

Since there were more than ten people proposing marriage, it was impossible to leave invitations for all of them and go on blind dates one by one.

Doing so will have a bad impact on the woman, and people will say, "The grass is greener on the other side."

"The princess doesn't even have to choose one person from more than ten people."

……

Zheng stuffed another red envelope in her pocket and said with a smile, "Big sister, there is no one else in the hall now, so just do a little favor."

He Dazui laughed a few times, took out two red notes from a pile of notes and placed them on the table, and whispered, "These are the two best candidates."

One is Li Zhi, the younger brother of the Second Prince’s wife.

The other is Lu Fengyun, the son of the Lu family.

He Dazui said bluntly: "These two are handsome, have good character, and are truly in love with your lady. Their family is simple and there is no evil person in charge."

Pei and Zheng burst out laughing.

The two of them set their eyes on the post from Lu's son. Then they thought, what if the horoscopes don't match?

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chose the horoscopes of Li Zhi and Lu Fengyun, and sent their trusted maid to the temple to ask a senior monk to compare the horoscopes, and then let their daughter make the decision.

Pei said to the servants, "The official matchmaker's proposal must be kept secret. Anyone who asks will be kept in the dark."

"Yes, Madam." The servants said in unison.

The third house sent people to inquire many times, but they were all answered "I don't know" by the servants of the first house.

As there was an endless stream of people asking official matchmakers to come to the Qi Mansion to propose marriage, this matter soon reached the ears of the Third Prince.

The Third Prince immediately sent someone to inquire about the situation, only to learn that the Prime Minister's Mansion had held a blind date party, allowing everyone to witness with their own eyes that Miss Qi was well-behaved and well-mannered, completely different from the rudeness and stupidity rumored by the outside world.

What surprised the Third Prince even more was that he remembered that he had met Madam Qi outside the Prime Minister's Mansion the day before and greeted her. At that time, the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion came out to meet him and invited him into the mansion, but he decisively refused.

"The fish that was just about to be caught is being taken away by someone else. How abominable!" said the third prince angrily.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed and angry he became. His brows were furrowed, his eyes were glaring and his teeth were gritted. He smashed the teacup in his hand to the ground. With a "crack", the cup shattered into pieces, and a puddle of wet tea splashed on the ground.

"How dare you snatch the person I have my eyes on? I will kill you," he said angrily.

Master Ren was also anxious and came up with an idea, "Your Highness, just let the Qi family's third branch lure Miss Qi out. If you succeed first, you won't have to worry about not being able to marry her."

"Yes, let's do this." The third prince agreed.

At the same time, he was angry that someone was competing with him for the position, so he called a few guards and said, "Go and find out which young man the Qi family has set their eyes on. Find a way to stab him or kill him to stop them from getting married."

"Yes, Your Highness."

He ordered again, "Go and call Qi Fu."

"As ordered, Your Highness."

The guards of the Third Prince's Mansion went out to inquire and reported back that "the Qi Mansion has not yet decided which mansion to discuss the marriage with."

Qi Fu was summoned by the Third Prince and hurried to the Third Prince's residence.

The third prince asked unhappily, "Who is discussing marriage with the eldest son of the Qi family?"

The Qi family is now headed by the eldest branch of the family, and all information is kept secret. Qi Fu and his wife have no way of finding out.

In order to deceive the Third Prince, he made up a story about the previous marriage proposal, "Princess Daning's Mansion and the Minister of Rites' Mansion came to propose marriage."

"Why are they proposing marriage again?" The Third Prince was puzzled. "Didn't they use the incompatibility of the horoscopes to push it away?"

Qi Fu lowered his head and tried to come up with an excuse, "Mr. Qin has a verbal engagement with our old man, and Mr. He is afraid of being dismissed from office."

"So that's how it is." The third prince glanced at the guard.

Several guards retreated.

The Third Prince arranged for Qi Fu, "There are many people who have come to your eldest house to propose marriage. If the marriage is decided, our plan will fail."

"Just in case, we have to find another way to get married as soon as possible."

Qi Fu understood the Third Prince's plan. His buttocks tightened, and he still remembered the pain of being beaten with a stick.

He helped an outsider to plot against his eldest niece. If his father knew about it, he would not only be beaten with five sticks, but fifty sticks, or even be kicked out of the Qi Mansion.

He was also very afraid that if the Third Prince's plan failed, he would probably kill him.

"And the two young ladies from the second house." Qi Fu said in a low voice.

"The second wife is a civil servant, what's the point of marrying her to him?" The third prince was furious again.

He slammed his palm on the table, and the teacup on it fell to the ground with a clang and shattered.

Qi Fu was so frightened that he fell to his knees, "Your Highness, whatever you say is fine."

"Okay, let's do this..." The third prince whispered to Qi Fu.

Qi Fu's forehead was covered with sweat. He kept nodding, "Okay, okay!"

He dragged his legs back to the Qi Mansion.

He walked into the mansion and heard the servants laughing and saying, "Happy event, great happy event."

Qi Fu's face turned pale instantly, and he stared at the servant.

When he saw Butler Qi coming, he asked dryly, "What's the good news?"

Housekeeper Qi smiled and said, "It's the eldest cousin who has arranged a marriage. She will get married on the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month. The Yuan family sent someone to say that they will pick her up and take her back home tomorrow to prepare to embroider her wedding dress."

Qi Fu breathed a sigh of relief, "This is indeed a happy event."

Qi Fu didn't ask which family his niece was married to.

His mind raced, and he realized that this was a great opportunity.

Qi Fu called his attendant Dasha and arranged, "Go to Dongshan Villa and tell my sister that the Yuan family has arranged a marriage for Zhaodi. There is no betrothal gift, no noble family, and she will be married in a few months."

"Tell my mother to invite the younger generation in the mansion to visit the patient, but don't let the old man know."

"Yes, Third Master." Dasha rode out of the city on horseback and went to Dongshan Villa to deliver the letter.

Qi Mansion Upper House

Pei was very happy when she learned that Yuan Zhaodi's grandmother had arranged a marriage for Zhaodi with a young imperial physician.

She said to Zhaodi, "Listen to your grandmother and father. When you get married, your family will help you."

"Just live your life well, we relatives will help you."

Yuan Zhaodi was very sensible. She stood up and saluted with a blushing face, "Thank you, aunt."

Yuan Zhaodi remembered that her sister had made a fuss all night last night, and decided to take her home with her tomorrow.

Because Yuan Pandi beat her sister, Pei confined her to her room and had a maid watch over her. She was not given any food but only water, and she cried and made a fuss all night.

Qi Wan said, "Cousin, you have to go home tomorrow. I have something to give you. Let's go to Yilan Courtyard."

Yuan Zhaodi refused, "No, no, we are sisters here, how can we ask for anything?"

"Let's go." Qi Wan took Yuan Zhaodi's hand.

Yuan Zhaodi couldn't struggle and had to follow.

She whispered, "My cousin is really strong."

Qi Wan chuckled a few times.

The two entered Yilan Courtyard. Qi Wan asked the maids and old women to guard outside the door, and she walked into the study with Zhaodi's arm in arm.

There is a brocade box on the table in the study.

Qi Wan gave up her seat and the cousins ​​sat down on the armchairs in the study.

Qi Wan opened the brocade box, took out an ancient book and handed it to Yuan Zhaodi, "This is a pediatric medical book, and there are also a few prescriptions for making pills."

Yuan Zhaodi held the medical book in her hand and read the cover. It was the long-lost pediatric medical book "Cranial Fontanel Sutra". She looked up at Qi Wan in astonishment and asked in confusion: "Cousin, why did you give me such a valuable thing?"

This book is priceless, and together with the recipes for making the pills, it is no exaggeration to say that it is an inexhaustible mountain of gold.

Just think about it, which child has not had typhoid fever? Cough? Indigestion? Diarrhea?

"It's valuable to medical practitioners, but it's useless to me." Qi Wan explained with a smile, "I don't practice medicine, nor do I run a medical clinic. My cousin can use it to save lives and support the family, killing two birds with one stone."

Yuan Zhaodi was so moved that tears filled her eyes.

With this book and a few recipes, she could open a pediatric clinic and make a good living.

Yuan Zhaodi believes that a favor is too great to be thanked, and if she opens her own medical clinic, she will share the profits with her cousin.

"Thank you, cousin." Zhaodi carefully put the book in her arms.

The two of them were in the study, playing Go and talking happily, cherishing the present time.

The two sisters knew very well that since they had both passed the coming-of-age ceremony, they would be married soon, and would not have much time to play chess leisurely and relaxingly in the future.

Before dinner, the two men put away their chess pieces.

The Upper House sent Aunt Lin to deliver the message, "Aunt Qi Yuehua suddenly had a stroke and is lying in bed unable to move. She sent a servant to say that she wants to see her two daughters. The old lady ordered Qi Wan and Qi Jiao to accompany them to the Dongshan Villa to pay respects tomorrow morning."

"Madam asked me to tell Miss and the two cousins ​​to get ready tonight and go to Dongshan early tomorrow morning."

When Yuan Zhaodi heard that her mother had suffered a stroke, she stood there in shock. After a moment, she asked in a trembling voice, "How could this happen?"
