Chapter 71 Numerous Challenges
"Young lady, this is not an attempt to force you into marriage; this is a case adjudicated by the Marquis of Anping!"
Li Siheng's heart skipped a beat, but remembering that he had already made a promise, he suppressed his fear and said to Qin Jin'an.
Even if this little fairy is powerful, she still has to be reasonable.
He did this in accordance with the law.
There was precedent for this in the Jin Dynasty.
Once, a man died after eating something he bought on the street. The matter went to the authorities, and his wife refused to accept compensation but demanded that the stall owner give her a husband in return. The stall owner happened to be single, so he offered himself as compensation and married the woman, supporting her and their child.
They thought their lives would be chaotic, but unexpectedly they were very much in love and had a child two years later. This led to the creation of this article in the Jin Dynasty law.
If you do not accept compensation, you can request to pay with your body if the conditions are right. If you really can't make ends meet after a few years, then divorce is also allowed.
Such incidents are rare, and it's uncommon for people to demand compensation from others; most cases involve monetary compensation and a settlement between the parties.
He didn't want money, he wanted Qin Shi herself. The law supported that. With that in mind, Li Siheng became more self-righteous and looked at Qin Jin'an, saying, "Young lady, are you questioning the injustice of the law?"
After reading the judgment, Qin Tianhai looked solemn. It was bizarre yet all made sense.
Su Chang'an is trying to cut off his daughter's path to survival.
The short, stout Li Siheng in front of him had probably already received enough benefits, so he would never change his mind no matter what. The benefits Su Chang'an gave him were probably enough to buy his life as well.
"I don't dare to question it, I'm just asking you, are you lucky to be alive?"
Qin Jin'an's expression was cold and stern, not at all like a child.
She doesn't know why she was reborn as a human. She also wants to live this life well, but if someone wants her to have a hard time, then she will risk her life to drag these people down with her.
Her head hurts a lot.
Madam Qin hugged Qin Jin'an, her voice choked with sobs, "My dear, stop. I won't let you do this. I just want you to be alright."
She doesn't care who she marries.
"Mother is not important, mother only hopes that her precious baby will grow up well."
Looking at Qin Jin'an's pale face, Qin Shi knew that she had used an ability she shouldn't have. Her body was weak, which was why she had become so pale.
Qin felt as if her heart was being torn apart.
"Mother, I won't let you be bullied."
Qin Jin'an hugged Qin Shi tightly, feeling a deep pang of heartache. She also hated her past self for giving the Su family so much good fortune. If it weren't for her mad favoritism, they wouldn't have the luck they have now.
Qin was in tears.
"Mrs. Qin, please get into the sedan chair. You will be my wife, and I will definitely treat you well."
Li Siheng steeled his resolve and spoke again.
"If my father-in-law is so kind, he is welcome to come and have a drink at our wedding. I would be more than happy to do so."
Li Siheng looked at Qin Tianhai, bowed, and said.
Qin Tianhai was deep in thought. Even though he was clever, he couldn't think of a way to break the deadlock. In Liuzhou City, once Su Chang'an made his move, he could control everything.
He is now worried that his son's side may also be encountering difficulties.
How could he tolerate this thing taking his daughter away?
Li Siheng looked at the sky, and apart from it turning dark, there was no other movement. He gradually became bolder and gave a wink to the person next to him.
The people he recruited were all notorious scoundrels, not to be trifled with.
These men stepped forward and tried to pull Qin Shi into the sedan chair.
"Let's see who dares to take my sister away!"
Qin Yulin rushed out, forcefully shoving aside the people who were trying to pull Qin Shi away, and fiercely protected her.
He observed from the shadows for a long time, his heart filled with anxiety.
Seeing that these people were about to use force, he couldn't help but rush out.
He knew he was also in trouble, but he couldn't just stand by and watch his sister be taken away.
If someone has to suffer, let him suffer.
It's good if he can buy some time; if he has more time, maybe Dad will come up with a solution.
"Big brother..."
Looking at Qin Yulin, Qin felt a bitter taste in her mouth. The fact that her elder brother was here meant that things were not going well.
Qin Shi understood that this was Su Chang'an's scheme; he wanted to completely destroy her hope, ruin her, and even affect her parents and brothers.
Su Chang'an was well prepared and caught her off guard.
Madam Qin tenderly stroked Qin Jin'an's face: "My darling, you will definitely grow up well."
Qin Jin'an understood what Qin Shi was going to do, and she clenched her fists: "I want my mother!"
A squad of soldiers came running over, their faces fierce and menacing: "The horse thief is here! Seize him at once!"
Qin Yulin looked annoyed.
As Qin Tianhai watched this scene unfold, he realized that this was a series of schemes by Su Chang'an. He had not only spared his daughter but also plotted against his son. Stealing the Marquis of Anping's horse would likely result in a death sentence!
Without his children, he was like a cripple without limbs; once his will was broken, his entire family was finished...
"What evidence do you have that my older brother stole a horse?"
Qin questioned loudly.
"Of course! Someone saw him riding the Marquis of Anping's warhorse. Seeing is believing, and that's the evidence. If he hadn't stolen the horse, how could the Marquis of Anping's warhorse be with him?"
The leading officer glanced coldly at Madam Qin and spoke.
Who told them to offend the Marquis of Anping?
If Marquis Anping says they are guilty, then they are guilty.
“I stole the horse, so if anyone’s going to arrest someone, it’s me! He’s my brother, I just let him ride the horse for a while.”
Qin said firmly that all of this was caused by her, and since it was about reason, she would speak with reason.
She wouldn't let these crimes fall on her brother, Qin Yulin.
Her life was nothing. Su Chang'an thought that this would force her into a dead end. He underestimated her.
As long as there are people in the Qin family, they will not let their precious child end up in the Su family.
The officers frowned, speechless for a moment. Logically speaking, if they were to arrest someone at this point, they should arrest both Qin Yulin and Qin Shi.
Both of them were to be arrested and questioned.
But that would ruin things.
"How could a woman like you have such great abilities? You must be taking the blame for your brother. You're my wife, you have to come and marry me!"
Li Siheng was not happy about this; he had to take the person away before his mission would be complete.
Qin Jin'an was covered in cold sweat, her body trembling; the pain was unbearable.
Qin was extremely anxious. She took out a medicine bottle from her bosom, poured out the medicine, and fed it to her, saying, "My dear, don't scare your mother."
After taking the medicine, Qin Jin'an's expression gradually calmed down. She smiled at Qin Shi and said, "Mother, don't be afraid, I will protect you."
No one can touch her family.
Qin Jin'an looked at Li Siheng and the others, and said in a deep voice: "If you leave now, you will not be cursed by me. If you don't leave, then let's see how tough your lives are."
"In a quarter of an hour, anyone who harms Qin Tianhai's family or the Qin clan will be crippled or killed, and will be plagued by misfortune for life! Their sins will be shared by their blood relatives, and they will not have a good end."
Qin Jin'an finished speaking in a deep voice, then everything went black and she fainted. Changing fate is really difficult, and it hurts so much. I wonder if she will be able to walk when she wakes up...
