"Sir, I've seen Zhao Qingye and Miss Wang getting close recently."
Someone called out for Qin Ruchu.
Zhao Qingye, the name of a scumbag.
Qin Ruchu looked towards the direction where the sound came from: "Someone must have seen it."
System: "Of course, he has never avoided anyone."
He even boasted about it to others.
So we have to be low-key in life, otherwise we never know when joy will turn into sorrow.
Zhao Qingye suddenly raised his head and looked towards the place where the voice came from, but there were too many people there and he couldn't find who said it. He was full of regret. He should have kept a low profile. At least it wouldn't be too late to show off after he succeeded. But now, something bad happened.
Miss Wang arrived very quickly, and her father came with her, and they both knelt in the court together.
"grown ups."
"Wang, do you know the people next to you?"
Outsiders are generally not allowed to use a girl's maiden name, as it would offend the other party, so the Dali Temple Minister called Miss Wang "Wangshi".
Miss Wang raised her eyelids, glanced at Zhao Qingye, then quickly retracted her gaze and replied in a trembling voice, "Yes, sir, I know you."
From childhood to adulthood, she had never been to a court, let alone being watched by so many people. It would be strange if she was not afraid.
"What is your relationship?" the Dali Temple Minister asked again.
Miss Wang bit her lip and answered in a low voice after the Dali Temple Minister asked again: "My family intends to recruit him as my son-in-law."
Her voice was almost crying.
Because she hadn't been sure whether it was Zhao Qingye, she was still investigating. But now it has become a done deal, and she has to marry him whether she wants to or not.
Father Wang quickly explained to her: "Sir, we are still in the discussion stage and have not confirmed it yet."
It has not been decided yet, the outcome is unknown.
This way, if his daughter did not marry Zhao Qingye, there would be less criticism.
Regardless of what stage they were at, the Dali Temple Minister heard their answers and said, "Do you know that he has a wife?"
The two of them suddenly looked at Zhao Qingye.
Very good. You wouldn’t know from the expressions on their faces.
The Dali Temple Minister turned to Zhao Qingye and asked: "Why didn't you tell Wang that you were married?"
Zhao Qingye kept silent, his mind racing.
The Dali Temple Minister didn't have the patience to wait for him to think before answering, "Call me."
"Because I wanted to trick her into marrying me." Zhao Qingye didn't want to be beaten again, so he had to tell the truth.
"You mean you want to marry a concubine?" the Dali Temple Minister asked again.
"No, no, no, I will divorce my current wife." Zhao Qingye answered without thinking.
He would never tell them that he had already decided to sell her off and had already done so.
"Wang, have you sent anyone to check whether he has married?" Seeing that Zhao Qingye couldn't get anything out of him, the Dali Temple Minister turned to Miss Wang.
"We sent people to check, but they all said that he was not married." Miss Wang said at the end, and suddenly raised her head to look at the Dali Temple Minister.
The Dali Temple Minister ignored her gaze and asked Zhao Qingye again: "How did you manage to hide this from Wang Shi so flawlessly?"
Zhao Qingye's heart skipped a beat, but he had to answer honestly: "I bribed the people around her."
"How much silver was spent? Where did the silver come from?" The Dali Temple Minister pressed on.
Zhao Qingye suppressed his panic and said, "There is no money for flowers. I told them that when I become their aunt, I will give them 100 taels of silver."
One hundred taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family to spend for a long, long time. With such huge benefits, there is no reason for them not to agree.
"Really?" The Dali Temple Minister did not say whether he believed it or not, but just asked someone to bring the people around Miss Wang.
Zhao Qingye collapsed on the ground, he knew, he was finished.
