Feng Yan said with some difficulty, "Your Highness, there is something wrong with the Qin family."

"What's wrong? Why are you hesitating? Just say it directly."

"Uh... I've been checking out the Qin family for a few days. It seems like the old man is into adultery. No, no, I shouldn't use the term 'adultery'."

Feng Yan scratched his head and said bluntly, "The old man of the Qin family, Qin Zhongwu, Qin Qihai's father, likes to molest his grandchildren's wives."

"what?"

Zhao Yuanqing was dumbfounded. There was such a thing. "Are you sure?"

Feng Yan nodded. "I'm sure. I stayed at the Qin family for three days. On the first night, Qin Qihai's third daughter-in-law went to Qin Zhongwu's yard. The second night, the fourth daughter-in-law went. There was constant obscene noise and talk in the yard."

"What about the eldest daughter-in-law?"

"I heard that the eldest daughter-in-law was weak and sickly, but she also went to Qin Zhongwu's yard on the third night and did not come out until dawn."

This was the first time Zhao Yuanqing had heard of this, and he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.

"The Qin family is not without money. If Qin Zhongwu wants a woman, he can go to the human market and buy any woman he wants. Why is he looking for his granddaughters-in-law? If this gets out, it will cause huge trouble."

Feng Yan shook his head. "I don't know either, but judging by the situation, except for the eldest grandson's wife who is a little reluctant, the third and fourth daughters-in-law are all quite obedient."

Zhao Yuanqing pondered, he had never heard of such a thing happening in the Qin family in his previous life, so it was probably because it never broke out.

She thought of a question, "By the way, do these granddaughters-in-law have children?"

"Except for the eldest grandson's wife who has a daughter, the other two don't have any. Qin Qihai's three sons do have one or two illegitimate children each."

That's it. If Qin Zhongwu forcibly took his grandson's wife, then whose children would they have? The moral code would be disrupted, so it would be better not to have children.

When Zhao Yuanqing thought of He Chanling, an idea came to his mind: Could it be that Qin Zhongwu fell in love with He Chanling first and then asked the Qin family to propose marriage?

Calculating their ages, Qin Zhongwu is fifty, and He Chanling is only seventeen or eighteen. He's old enough to be her grandfather. How disgusting! Damn it!

Zhao Yuanqing gagged and almost vomited.

Feng Yan is a man and knows the nature of men. There are many men with quirks, and there are many who like other people's wives like Qin Zhongwu, but there are few who specifically look for their own grandson's wife. As a man, he also looks down on such people.

"Your Highness, what should we do next?"

"Qin Zhongwu's three granddaughters-in-law are all daughters of minor officials. How could they possibly submit to an old man? Go and investigate again. Don't tell anyone what you found out today."

"Yes."

Feng Yan went out.

Zhao Yuanqing sat there in a daze for a long time. Feng Yan thought she didn't understand, but in fact, Zhao Yuanqing had experienced tragic experiences in her previous life and had seen all kinds of things.

In a corner where there is no one to restrain people, people's animal nature will be highlighted and men's bad nature will be stimulated. Qin Zhongwu does whatever he wants in the Qin family, which shows that it is not Qin Qihai but Qin Zhongwu who controls the Qin family, and he must have some handle that can hold the Qin family members accountable. What is it?

"Someone is coming."

"What do you want, Princess?"

"Find someone to keep an eye on the He family. If He Chanling leaves, report to me immediately."

"Yes."

At the He family, Mrs. Lin told Mrs. Huang that Qin Da invited He Chanling to go horseback riding at the horse farm outside Beijing tomorrow.

When He Chanling was in the northwest, she often went out riding horses, and she enjoyed riding with great pleasure. However, the capital was densely populated, so if one wanted to ride a horse, they could only go to a special horse farm.

Therefore, Qin Da's invitation was exactly what she wanted, and He Chanling agreed without hesitation.

The next day, He Chanling wore a bright red Hu suit with black edges, combed her hair into a small bun, and tied two red spiral ribbons. When she walked, the ribbons fluttered in the wind, making her look very heroic.

He Chanling has lived in the northwest for many years and has been imbued with the boldness of a frontier woman. She has rosy cheeks, bright eyes, and black hair that gleams softly in the sun. Her smile has a vitality that is not found in girls in the boudoir of the capital, making her very attractive.

When Qin Da saw He Chanling, he seemed to be stunned, his eyes twinkling. He came forward and said gently, "Madam He, please get in this car."

He Chanling blushed and lowered her head shyly. She could not resist such a gentle man.

She took a nanny and a maid to the second carriage, and Qin Da took the servants to the first carriage. The two carriages left the capital and arrived at the horse farm on the outskirts of the capital after about half an hour.

They were received by a servant from the stable, who first took them to the stable to choose horses, and then to the stable.

The horse farm is a square dirt ground with a long pavilion on one side and tables and chairs for guests to use.

Qin Da and He Chanling arrived at the pavilion to prepare when they heard a voice not far away, "Hey, isn't this Lao Er? Qin Da, Qin Da!"

Qin Da's eyes flashed with gloom. He lowered his head and gritted his teeth. After a moment, he turned around and said, "Ah, it's Grandfather. You're here to ride a horse too?"

About ten meters away, there stood a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties. He was tall and strong, with a fair complexion, and looked elegant yet heroic. He was looking at this side with a smile. It was Qin Da's grandfather, Qin Zhongwu.

When He Chanling heard the voice, she hurriedly looked over there. Qin Zhongwu squinted his eyes and quickly glanced at her up and down. There was a flash of surprise and satisfaction in his eyes, and his smile became even more loving.

He walked over slowly and said, "Second brother, which young lady are you bringing here to ride?"

Qin Da bowed and saluted, "Grandfather, this is Miss He, who is engaged to me."

He Chanling bowed deeply and said crisply, "Hello, Master Qin."

Qin Zhongwu lowered his head and looked at He Chanling's head. The girl's thick long hair was tied into a round bun, which made her look cute and playful. It was so good to be young, with such lush hair.

"Okay, okay, Madam He, don't be so polite. Second brother, take Madam He out to play. Don't worry about me."

"Yes."

Qin Da picked a docile mare and helped He Chanling onto it. He Chanling was used to riding in the northwest, so she flicked the whip, the sound of horse hooves rang out, and she rushed out.

The khaki horse farm, the tawny pavilion, the black and gray men, and He Chanling in the middle of it, with her red dress fluttering and colorful ribbons dancing, as bright as a flame, attracted everyone's attention.

Qin Zhongwu stared at He Chanling greedily, and a fire ignited in his heart. It’s great to be young. This young lady is very good.

He said, "Second brother, your engagement is very good. Grandmother is very satisfied."

Qin Da didn't say anything, looking at He Chanling with an unfathomable gaze. Qin Zhongwu glanced at him and chuckled.

"She's just a woman, don't be so reluctant. You're still young and will have plenty of time to enjoy yourself in the future. Give her to Grandpa first. Don't worry, Grandpa won't treat you badly."

Qin Zhongwu reached into his sleeve, pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to Qin Da, "This is for you."

Qin Da opened it and found the deed to a shop on Suzaku Street with his name on it. He asked in surprise, "Grandfather, are you really giving it to me?"

"I'll give it to you. It's a silk shop, filled with fine goods. How about it? Grandfather hasn't treated you unfairly, has he? As long as you're obedient, there will be even better things in the future."

Qin Da smiled happily. Compared to money, women were really nothing. He put the deed away and said, "I understand, Grandfather."

Qin Zhongwu smiled and continued to stare at He Chanling on the field. Most women in Beijing are weak and submissive, and it is rare to find one as fierce as this wild horse. It must be a lot of fun to tame it.

He Chanling rode very fast, "Gee! Gee!"

She loved the feeling of galloping so much. The sky was so big and the earth was so vast that she could gallop freely. After they got married, she would definitely tell Qin Da to come to the stable more often to ride horses.

There was a commotion at the entrance to the racecourse. A moment later, a group of people entered. People were talking, "Who are they? What a big scene!"

"It's Princess Shanzhen!"

Oh, after a moment of commotion, people returned to silence. It was said that Princess Shanzhen was no longer easy to mess with and would hit anyone she wanted.

Qin Zhongwu frowned. Why is Zhao Yuanqing here? Trouble.
