Chapter 105 Fang Qianxue, you are not a faithful wife!

At this time, both of them were only wearing snow-white middle-length clothes, with disheveled hair, and they looked at each other in a very strange way.

Jiang Xu swallowed his saliva, looked at her with eyes full of innocence, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Master Fang, why did you let Qilin capture me?"

"It's not me..." Fang Qianxue held her forehead with one hand and glanced at Qilin. She thought that she couldn't explain it clearly today. "I... have something important to discuss with you."

Who in the capital didn't know that Qilin only obeyed her? And Jiang Xu was abducted to Fang's house. Who would believe that she didn't ask Qilin to capture him?

"Is it important?" A gust of cold wind blew by. Jiang Xu thought for a moment and took off his cloak and gave it back to Fang Qianxue. "You should put it on yourself, or you will catch a cold."

The Qilin rubbed its big head against Fang Qianxue, and it became more and more convinced that there must be love between its master and Jiang Xu, or at least they cared about each other.

It felt that Jiang Xu had the youthful purity and innocence, and his gentleness and elegance made people feel like a spring breeze. It would be great if Jiang Xu could really be the master's husband.

Fang Qianxue couldn't refuse, so she took the cloak and said, "Come with me to Qilin Residence to take shelter from the wind first, and I'll call a sedan chair to take you back home later."

We can't let the Qilin carry the person back again.

In fact, the heat from Qilin's body warmed Fang Qianxue, and she didn't feel cold at all. But if someone saw the two of them in the yard like this, even if nothing was wrong, it would be rumored that something was wrong.

Qilin tilted his head and looked at Fang Qianxue in confusion: "Xuexue, isn't the man I found for you good? Why do you want to send him back?"

Fang Qianxue slapped its forehead hard: "Don't act on your own in the future. You don't need to worry about my affairs."

"Ah?" Jiang Xu looked up at her in fear and trepidation, "Did I say something wrong?"

"No, no," Fang Qianxue smiled awkwardly, "I'm talking to Qilin, young marquis, please follow me."

"Okay." Jiang Xu followed Fang Qianxue and Qilin into Qilin Residence, and then touched the gems on the wall and exclaimed, "Your place is really unique, and there are such good things."

Fang Qianxue smiled sheepishly and said, "These gems were given by the Queen Mother. She said that Qilin likes shiny things."

The two found a table and chairs to sit down, and Qilin dozed off on the side.

Fang Qianxue gathered her cloak and said, "Today something unexpected happened, and I didn't prepare any tea to entertain the young marquis, so I'll keep it short."

"Yeah." Jiang Xu looked at her shyly.

Although there were many women in the capital who coveted him, this was the first time that he was abducted by a woman overnight!

Although my back was bitten by the Qilin and was covered with bruises, it was still exciting to think about it.

"Our Fang family has been implicated in the Prince Yong case," Fang Qianxue said, "This case requires your father, Marquis Liaoyuan, to come out and testify."

"The Yongwang case?" Jiang Xu opened his eyes wide in surprise. "You called me here so late just to talk about the Yongwang case?"

"Yes, I waited for you all day," Fang Qianxue said, "I sent someone to deliver a letter to you at the Marquis' Mansion this morning, but the doorman said you were out."

"Okay," Jiang Xu knew that he was just being sentimental, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, "But what does the Yongwang case have to do with our Liaoyuan Marquisate?"

"A year ago, the Minyue Kingdom harassed the southern border. Do you remember?" Fang Qianxue asked.

"Remember, the Minyue Kingdom often harassed the southern border. Our Liaoyuan Marquisate has been stationed in the southern border for many years and has fought hundreds of battles, big and small. So what's wrong with that?"

"Young Marquis, is there something different in your impression of the battle a year ago?"

"This..." Jiang Xu frowned and recalled slowly, "Speaking of which, a year ago, when the Minyue Kingdom harassed the southern border, they massacred a small border town and killed many people. My father told me that he wanted to conquer the Minyue Kingdom to eliminate the trouble forever."

"And then?"

"We gave up because we didn't have enough war horses." Jiang Xu asked, "What's wrong? Why do you care about our southern border?"

"This matter not only concerns the southern border, but also involves the Yongwang Mansion and those so-called 'Yongwang's followers.'" Fang Qianxue told Jiang Xu about Yongwang's plan to buy war horses to support Liaoyuanhou Mansion, and how Xu Miaoyan and Lu Changli reported Yongwang Mansion for treason.

"Is this true?" Jiang Xu was surprised and clenched his fists. "If I knew, I would stand up and testify in the Yongwang case immediately."

"Now we can only ask your father to find the correspondence between him and Prince Yong and prove Prince Yong's innocence," Fang Qianxue looked at him and sighed hesitantly, "but I'm afraid the Marquis won't agree."

"Why?" Jiang Xu was puzzled. "Father has always been on good terms with Prince Yong. If it can prove his friend's innocence, why would he refuse?"

Fang Qianxue was silent for a moment before she said, "It's because the current emperor is suspicious and cruel. The Marquis may be afraid that if he stands up, he will anger the emperor, and then he will vent his anger on the entire Liaoyuan Marquisate, which will not be worth the loss."

"What you said... makes sense." Jiang Xu understood.

My father was good friends with Prince Yong. If there was evidence that could prove Prince Yong's innocence, he should have brought it out right away. But now it has been delayed until now, and his good friend has already died. Why should he risk the future of the entire Marquisate?

Fang Qianxue suddenly stood up and bowed to Jiang Xu again: "Young Marquis, I beg you to write a letter to the Marquis, saying that hundreds of lives in our Fang family and other families depend on his will."

Those who need to be retried this time include not only Master Fang, but also several ministers who were implicated by Prince Yong. They were either rich or noble in the past, but now their entire families are exiled to the northwest. Two old men could not withstand the long journey and have died on the road.

"Hurry up," Jiang Xu helped her up and said, "Don't worry, I will write a letter and send someone to deliver it to father as soon as possible. I will definitely prove your Fang family's innocence!"

"Thank you, young marquis!" Fang Qianxue smiled at him, her eyes slightly red. "I'll send someone to prepare a carriage to take you back."

Jiang Xu's heart was shaken, and he felt dizzy: "Master Fang... Master Fang..."

"What is it?"

Jiang Xu had a few words of confession in his heart, but he didn't say them out loud: "After the Fang family's case is settled, can you agree to my next request?"

"Of course!" Fang Qianxue said with a smile, "I have no way to repay you for standing up for the Fang family's case. If there is anything you want, please let me know."

"Yes." Jiang Xu's heart was already beating fast, and he lowered his head and said, "Don't forget the promise you made today."

In the late night, a carriage came out of the Fang family's gate and headed straight for Liaoyuan Hou Mansion.

The night wind blew up the curtains of the carriage, revealing the handsome face of a young man. There was a shy smile on his peach blossom face, and just one look at him was like a spring breeze.

Across the long street, a man in a green robe was half lying against the courtyard wall. He looked at the man in the carriage in a daze at first, then suddenly sat up straight, his eyes blurred with unwillingness and hatred.

"Fang Qianxue, you are not a faithful wife and you are a fickle woman! You have committed adultery with a man without a matchmaker, which is a disgrace to our Lu family!"
