I'm already dressed like a fool, what's wrong with taking the regent into the bridal chamb
Chapter 12 Demanding Debt
Wen Qingzhi thought about it and felt curious too.
She looked at the scale of the marriage and it was far from what was prepared for her.
She could guess that the Yuan family had no intention of marrying her from the beginning because they were sure she would die, so they should have agreed with them early on to get married today.
The Yuan family has always been fond of Jiang Ying, the daughter of cabinet minister Jiang Huan. However, the Jiang and Yuan families are in high positions, and any marriage would arouse the emperor's suspicion.
Jiang Huan is an old fox, he will not let the Jiang family fall in this place.
Then, who could it be?
I can’t imagine who it is.
...
Just as he was wondering, he suddenly heard a noisy sound. He looked closely and found that he and his group had arrived at the door of Yuan's house.
The doorman was shocked when he saw Wen Qingzhi in plain clothes.
Who did he see!?
That fool from the Wen family!
Wen Qingzhi asked knowingly, "Today the Marquis' Mansion and the Yuan family are getting married. I'm not here. Who will General Yuan marry with?"
As soon as I heard the tone, I knew he was here to cause trouble.
The doorman broke out in a cold sweat.
His young general is marrying the Jiang family's daughter today...
Although the original choice for marriage was the person in front of me, but now, isn’t it?
He feigned composure, "Miss Wen, my young general is indeed getting married today. But... it's not you. He went to the palace yesterday to request permission to cancel the engagement."
It really is Jiang Ying, the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family.
Han Yan glanced at her, and it seemed that this was the first time he heard such explosive news.
"The Jiang family's daughter..."
Wen Qingzhi repeated, "You said you requested an imperial decree to cancel the engagement last night, but I didn't receive any instructions to do so. Since there's no explicit decree, it means the engagement hasn't been canceled. The Jiang family's legitimate daughter is about to marry into the family, so how... is she going to be a concubine?"
"hiss--"
Everyone present took a breath.
How dare she say that!
The concierge was terrified!
She really dares to say that she wants the Jiang family's legitimate daughter to be a concubine!
No, she was kidnapped last night and lost her innocence, and she still wants to marry his major general?
How shameless!
After calming down, the doorman's face turned cold, "Then I don't know. I'm just a doorman, responsible for welcoming the distinguished guests who came to congratulate you today."
"In that case, go in and tell them. I, Wen Qingzhi, am here to congratulate you."
"..."
The concierge's fake smile froze on his face.
"Here's an IOU from General Yuan a few years ago... Would you like me to come in and talk to him privately, or would you like me to read it out in front of everyone?"
"..."
What's the situation?
His young general owes debts?
"Nonsense!"
Just when the doorman didn't know how to deal with this matter, a scolding came from behind.
"How could our Yuan family, with such status, be in debt?"
The one who came out was Nanny Xia.
She was wearing a gray-purple robe today and a pearl hairpin on her head. She walked out with a cold face and stood on the steps, looking down at Wen Qingzhi.
"What is Miss Wen doing here today?"
"The Yuan family has broken off the engagement with the Wen family. As for the reason, the young lady knows it well."
"Therefore, it has nothing to do with who you marry next, so please don't get involved."
She speaks a lot of truth.
Wen Qingzhi pondered for a moment and asked, "What did you say first?"
Aunt Xia was startled and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Wen Qingzhi said seriously, "I came here today for two reasons. One is to collect a debt. The other is... to slap you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand and swung it towards Nanny Xia's face, knocking her to the ground with a "bang". She cried out in pain.
"How dare you commit a crime in front of the General's Mansion!"
As the doorman spoke, he waved his hand and called many servants to surround Wen Qingzhi and the others.
In an instant, passers-by and guests who came to congratulate were all attracted by Wen Qingzhi.
The noise quickly alarmed the Yuan family. When they came out, Nanny Xia got up and went forward to cry.
"Woo woo, Major General, this Wen Qingzhi is crazy! I just asked her not to ruin your wedding with Miss Jiang today, but she got so angry that she started hitting me!"
"You, you're talking nonsense!"
Chunyu saw that she was blaming him, and hurriedly explained, "It's obviously, it's——"
I really don’t know how to put this into words, because it was really her daughter who hit someone.
She actually felt a little guilty!
Yuan Shao stood on a high place, looking down at Wen Qingzhi, frowning unhappily, "What are you doing here?"
Wen Qingzhi saw his actions and knew that he must know what happened last night.
"What, I can't come?"
She deliberately said, "Getting married, taking a concubine before the bride even enters the house...isn't this against the rules?"
Hearing this, the lines between Yuan Shao's brows deepened. He said, "My engagement with you has already been cancelled. Don't come here and make trouble. Ying'er and I are in love with each other. She is my legal wife."
Love each other!
Ah!
Wen Qingzhi sneered inwardly and said, "You and her are in love, why didn't you break off the engagement with me earlier?"
"Oh... So, you hooked up with another woman while you were engaged to me."
She took a step forward and stared at Yuan Shao, "So you're also a fickle person."
"presumptuous!"
Yuan Shao was furious and raised his hand to attack Wen Qingzhi.
In an instant, Han Yan stepped forward and exchanged a palm strike with him, protecting Wen Qingzhi.
After receiving a palm strike from Yuan Shao, Han Yan retreated six steps before he managed to steady himself and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Wen Qingzhi narrowed her eyes instantly, her heart filled with murderous intent.
Han Yan's kung fu was not weak, and he vomited blood after receiving Yuan Shao's palm.
If it really hits her, wouldn't it be the end of her life?
It seems that Yuan Shao really intended this.
What a great Yuan Shao, what a great general’s mansion!
"Brother Han!"
Chunyu looked at him worriedly, then ran to Wen Qingzhi and stretched out his arms in a protective gesture.
This scene stung Wen Qingzhi's eyes.
She... doesn't want to live anymore?
Wen Qingzhi was surprised for a few seconds, then raised her hand to hold Chunyu's shoulder, "I'm fine."
She walked down, took Han Yan's hand, took his pulse, and frowned.
Seeing this, Han Yan immediately pulled his hand back and said, "Don't worry, young lady, I'm fine."
Although she was taking Han Yan's pulse, she was in public and it would be bad for her reputation if a girl like her came into contact with a man.
Wen Qingzhi said: "You are trying to save my life. I am taking your pulse. Don't worry."
"The clear will be clear, and the turbid will be turbid. My Zhenguo Hou Mansion has always been open and honest."
She said this for others to hear.
Wen Qingzhi stepped forward alone and said, "Your servant hit my people for no reason. I hit him back. Is that wrong?"
Yuan Shao: “…”
"I'm here to seek justice. You injured my subordinates again. I slapped you. Is that okay?"
She looked him in the eye and continued, "People say you should look at the owner before beating a dog. General Yuan, do you really not take me seriously?"
As she spoke, she stepped forward and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "It's only natural to pay back your debts, right?"
"General Yuan, you haven't forgotten the debt I owed you, right?"
