Chapter 336: Did the Northern Ji Kingdom Really Improve the Status of Women?

After Wang Daxin and others returned to Baiyun Village from their stall, they couldn't find their fifth uncle, Han Hongzhi and others anywhere.

They asked the people in Baiyun Village and found out that their fifth uncle and others had been taken away by the imperial court, but no one knew where they had gone.

Wang Daxin was so anxious that he had no choice but to go to Lu's house to find the Lu family.

After a few days of investigation into the secret forces of Prince Lin’s Mansion, they found out that they were taken away by Lin Pingyuan’s army.

But Lin Pingyuan is going to attack Ji Yang, so why bring these people with him?

Upon hearing the news, Han Qingyun angrily cursed Lin Pingyuan, calling him a villain!

But no matter how angry Han Qingyun was, he could only wait.

That day, Zhao Xingwu suddenly ran into the room and said, "Uncle, there's a young woman looking for Aunt."

"woman?"

Zhao Xingwu showed some pity on his face: "She said her name was Hua Qingran, and she was in Pulu Mountain and had received great kindness from my second aunt."

Han Qingyun felt a pang of pain in his heart, and then he pondered for a long time.

He heard from Lan Niang that Qingran was the daughter of a wealthy family in Lin'an Prefecture, and after returning home, she was locked up in the family temple.

How could a weak woman escape from the ancestral temple? And how could she run from Lin'an Prefecture to Jiyang in such cold weather?

Now is a critical moment for Ji Yang, and he cannot trust a woman he is not familiar with.

"How did she know Yanyan was in Prince Lin's Mansion?"

Zhao Xingwu shook his head. When the woman mentioned Pulu Mountain, he couldn't help feeling sad. He didn't ask anything else.

"She brought a guard with her. Two of them came on horseback. Miss Hua's face turned blue from the cold, and she almost fainted as soon as she got off the horse."

Han Qingyun frowned, could it be a self-torture trick?

"Tell her that Yanyan is out and ask her to come back in a few months."

"okay."

Zhao Xingwu came back soon.

"Uncle, they said they were planning to find a house in Jiyang. But Miss Hua wanted to ask, can Beiji really improve the status of women? Will women like her really not be discriminated against?"

Han Qingyun felt upset. Their policy had just been formulated, but they were going to refuse to meet an old friend, a poor woman, just because they were afraid that the other party had ulterior motives.

But he couldn't gamble. Nothing could go wrong in Jiyang now.

"Go tell Lan Niang and Dasao to help find a place nearby to accommodate Miss Hua. Then find someone to secretly monitor them. Nothing can go wrong, understand?"

"Second Uncle, you suspect..."

"I'm not suspicious, I'm just in case."

Zhao Xingwu understood that if the other party really had ulterior motives, he had to keep them under his watch.

If the other party has no ill intentions, it can be considered that the second uncle is taking care of them.

Lan Niang cried with joy when she received the news.

Qingran is the most talented and intelligent woman among them. She has always been worried that Qingran would be locked up in the ancestral temple. Now it’s great that she can come out.

Qin Yuru patted Lan Niang's hand and explained a few things to her.

Lan Niang's face was solemn for a moment, and finally nodded. Ji Yang was the best place she had ever been to, and Bei Ji would also be her favorite country. She would not let anyone do anything to harm Bei Ji.

When the two of them arrived outside the gate, they saw Qingran shivering in a men's cotton coat. The man next to her was only wearing a single piece of clothing, and his face was blue from the cold.

Seeing Lan Niang and her belly, Qing Ran was surprised at first, and then she cried and laughed.

"Sister Lan Niang, did you really find Madam Han and Madam Lu Shao? So you came to Jiyang with them."

Lan Niang's eyes were red and she hugged Qing Ran.

"Liu Mei and I both followed Madam Han. Liu Mei stayed in Luocheng to help Madam manage her business, and I followed Madam here."

When Qin Yuru heard Zhao Xingwu say that Qingran was very cold, she specially took out a fox fur cloak and wanted to put it on Qingran.

Qingran's cheeks turned slightly red. She handed her cotton coat to the man and then put on her cloak.

"Thank you, Madam Lu."

"Qingran, this is the palace, and we're just renting here, so it's not appropriate to let you in. But the Lu family has a house nearby, so can I take you there?"

Qingran was touched and nodded.

Qin Yuru took out a small heater, covered it with cotton cloth to prevent her hands from being burned, and put it in Qingran's hand.

Qingran's hands were colder than ice. I really didn't know how she rode a horse from Lin'an Prefecture to Jiyang.

Qin Yuru thought that there was only a horse beside the two of them, and she understood a little. The man was handsome and tall, and his eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at Qingran.

After arriving in Jiyang, the Yan family, the Qian family, Zhou Jinshi and others had already moved out one after another.

The Lu family also bought a house.

Liu Minghe and Guan Xueqin are old and still live in Prince Lin's Mansion.

Yan Xuewen, Qian Yunhao, and Lu Changan wanted to study with Liu Minghe, so the three families bought houses together. They were very close to Prince Lin's Mansion, only a quarter of an hour's walk away.

The Lu family's house was very large, and half of it was divided out to be left to the Han family.

However, because Chen and Qin Yuru were doing business with the princess, and the war was about to break out, Li Jiren was worried that they would be in danger if they moved out, so the Han and Lu families continued to live in Prince Lin's mansion.

Yan Hui and his son often went out, so Lu Changan let Yan Xuewen live with him in Qingsongyuan.

Later, as the weather grew colder, Lu Changan saw that Qian Yunhao had to get up half an hour earlier every day, so he simply let him move in as well.

Now the Yan family only has a few servants to clean the house, and the Qian family only has one more maid to take care of Mrs. Qian.

The Lu residence, sandwiched between the two houses, is slightly more lively because caravans occasionally come to stay temporarily.

The outer courtyard of the Lu residence was reserved for the Lu family caravan.

Qingran and the other person were placed in the guest house.

Worried that Qingran would feel uncomfortable, Qin Yuru only left two maids.

The living room was lit with charcoal and soon became warm.

Qingran's pale face finally showed some color.

When she heard Lan Niang talk about the other sisters, she felt distressed and sad, but fortunately, everyone was alive.

"Qingran, how about you? Are you okay?"

Lan Niang asked distressedly.

Qingran looked at Lan Niang's belly and heard the happiness in her eyes when she mentioned Yan Dahu. She was very happy for her.

"Sister Lan Niang, Madam Lu Shao, his name is Du Heng."

When Qingran said the name Du Heng, her voice was very low, with shyness and happiness in her eyes.

Qin Yuru and Lan Niang smiled at each other. It seemed that Qingran's life was not too bad.

Du Heng bowed to the two of them.

"Madam Lu, Miss Lan Niang, Qing Ran is grateful for your care and rescue. Du Heng will never forget your great kindness."

Du Heng was supposed to be Qing Ran's fiancé. His mother and Qing Ran's mother were close friends, and they both joked about marrying their children to each other.

Unfortunately, Qingran's mother died young, and Du Heng's father lost his official position for failing to suppress bandits.

In order to support his family, Du Heng worked as a escort leader in an escort agency.

Hua Qingran's father naturally looked down upon the Du family, and their engagement was delayed.

When Qingran was eighteen years old, her father wanted to marry her to another prominent family in Lin'an Prefecture - the Fei family.

The second master of the Fei family is a second-rank official in Beijing, so this marriage is considered a high-ranking one for the Hua family.

But Qingran and Du Heng were childhood sweethearts and loved each other, so how could she be willing to marry someone else?

What's more, the man Hua's father wanted Qingran to marry was Fei Yuanying, the eldest son of the Fei family's eldest branch.

Fei Yuanying was a second-generation rich man who relied on the power of his second uncle to bully others in Lin'an Prefecture.

Qingran is a famous woman in Lin'an Prefecture for her talent and beauty.

Fei Yuanying had already made it known that Hua Qingran could only be his woman.

Qingran's stepmother Liu was a kind woman. When she saw that her attempts to persuade Hua's father were futile, she arranged a marriage between Qingran and Du Heng in the name of her mother.

Hua's father had a huge argument with Liu, and then sent someone to the Du family. While Du Heng was escorting an escort to earn the betrothal gift, they beat up Du's parents and forcibly took back the marriage certificate...
