Chapter 81 Chapter 81 This boy has evil intentions.
==Chapter 81==
The Ministry of Justice, the Supervisory Office, and the Dali Temple are all under the jurisdiction of the Three Law Departments. The case of Lu Minxing was supervised by the Three Law Departments. Therefore, as soon as Shen Jingchen entered the Dali Temple, Yan Yunhe got the news.
Yan Yunhe seemed to be thinking about something, and turned to walk towards the Dali Temple.
Seeing the person, he found a random place to sit down and asked casually, "What's going on with Shen Jingchen?"
At this critical moment, Gu Yushi led his men to capture Shen Jingchen. Yan Yunhe could only think that Shen Jingchen was related to Lu Minxing.
Yan Yunhe didn't feel too surprised. After all, he had long felt that the timing of Shen Jingchen's appearance was too coincidental.
Gu Yushi didn't even raise his head:
"This is the Dali Temple, not the Ministry of Justice. Lord Yan has come to the wrong place."
Yan Yunhe didn't expect to get an answer from him. There would always be a charge for arresting someone. He had learned about the charge for Shen Jingchen's imprisonment long before he came to find Gu Yu. What he wanted to ask was the relationship between Shen Jingchen and Lu Minxing, but this was only one of his purposes.
Yan Yunhe fiddled with the jade pendant on his waist, his eyes casually falling on something, and suddenly he spoke:
"She broke off the engagement."
He also knew that Feng Wenyu went to Zhuangzi to relax after breaking off the engagement.
That's why he hasn't looked for Feng Wenyu yet. She needs some time to deal with her emotions.
But he didn't expect that the so-called relaxation was a pretense from the beginning.
There was a secret between Gu Yushi and Feng Wenyu that he was unaware of.
Yan Yunhe's voice was cold: "Master Gu, what is he doing now? Is he regretting breaking off the engagement?"
Gu Yushi paused, and finally looked up at Yan Yunhe. The moment their eyes met, Gu Yushi said in a faint voice:
"I regret it, so what?"
Yan Yunhe's eyes turned slightly cold. When he heard Gu Yu say, "I don't need to explain to you what happened between her and me."
and--
Gu Yushi changed the subject and said lightly:
"If Xie Zhujing knew what you did with Meng Qiaojing, he might not let you go."
Hearing this, Yan Yunhe narrowed his eyes suddenly. He looked deeply at Gu Yu and said, "Master Gu is very well-informed."
A hint of sarcasm flashed across Gu Yushi's lips.
Well-informed?
But he had long known that Yan Yunhe was not a good person.
When he was engaged to Feng Wenyu, Yan Yunhe put all kinds of pressure on him and schemed against him. If the matter had not become so serious later and caused the emperor to personally inquire about it, Yan Yunhe might not have stopped at all.
How could he allow Xie Zhujing and Feng Wenyu to get engaged and do nothing?
But Xie Zhujing is different from him. Xie Zhujing is a disciple of the Feng family. Yan Yunhe dares to deliberately target Xie Zhujing, which means he is against the Feng family.
No matter how arrogant Yan Yunhe is, he would never do something that would not be worth the loss.
After realizing that Meng Qiaojing's time of entering Beijing was wrong, he immediately sent people to Linzhou City.
Yan Yunhe said, "I didn't do anything. I just made it easier for Miss Meng to enter the capital."
Gu Yushi could not deny this:
"It was you who forced her to leave Linzhou City?"
The Meng family was just a merchant family. Yan Yunhe only needed to put a little pressure on them and send someone to instigate them a few times, which was enough to make Meng Qiaojing have no place to stay in Linzhou City. If someone mentioned Xie Zhujing in front of her at this time, it would be normal for her to come to the capital to seek refuge with Xie Zhujing.
The Meng family divided up the assets left by Meng Qiaojing's father. Even for the sake of reputation, it was impossible for them not to give Meng Qiaojing a place to stay.
In her previous life, Meng Qiaojing fled to the capital because she refused to be a concubine and was forced to marry by the Meng family.
Yan Yunhe's eyes turned cold. "The Meng family is greedy. If she stays in the Meng family, she will have no chance of survival sooner or later. I just let her see the true face of the Meng family in advance."
Gu Yushi didn't care:
"Master Yan, please explain these things to Xie Zhujing someday."
Seeing that the man was unmoved, Yan Yunhe snorted coldly and left with a flick of his sleeves.
******
Apart from Xie Zhujing, the person who could not accept the most about Feng Wenyu and Xie Zhujing breaking off their engagement was actually Meng Qiaojing.
When Meng Qiaojing heard the news, she was completely stunned, and the color on her face faded away in an instant.
Even though she didn't understand the situation, she knew the benefits of this marriage to the Feng family for her cousin.
But everything was ruined because of her arrival.
Meng Qiaojing couldn't hold back her tears: "It's my fault. I harmed my cousin."
At this moment, the words of her husband's family and the Meng family suddenly surrounded her, making her bones cold. She was trembling all over, and she collapsed to the ground, unable to stand still.
"I am... a jinx. Wherever I go, I bring disaster."
Xie Zhujing interrupted her self-pity: "Don't say these self-deprecating words again."
Xie Zhujing closed his eyes. He was in no mood to comfort Meng Qiaojing, but he also didn't want to listen to these absurd and self-deprecating words.
Meng Qiaojing was stunned for a moment. She raised her eyes and looked at Xie Zhujing with tears in her eyes.
Since her husband died of illness, she has heard too many slanderous words. After listening to them for so long, she almost believed that maybe she really was the reincarnation of a jinx.
But now someone is telling her not to belittle herself.
Meng Qiaojing couldn't help but feel a sore nose and tears fell uncontrollably.
Xie Zhujing didn't even look at her and walked out with big strides.
Minister's Mansion.
After the incident with Shen Jingchen, Feng Wenzhou certainly couldn't let Feng Wenyu continue to stay in Zhuangzi, so he took Feng Wenyu back to the capital that day.
Recently, many families in Beijing have received invitations.
Not only the Minister's Mansion, but also the Xie family, the Gu family, and even the Duke's Mansion were received.
The Jiang family and the Kong family are getting married.
Kong Huaijin has been having a headache recently. Before, he invited Gu Yushi and Xie Zhujing to go with him to pick up the bride, and both of them agreed. However, he never expected that something unexpected would happen in the middle. Xie Zhujing and Miss Feng actually broke off the engagement.
When these two people were in the Hanlin Academy, they were at loggerheads with each other, but at least they still communicated with each other.
But now the two of them don't even talk to each other.
As the wedding date approached, Kong Huaijin was worried. Someone gave him a bad idea: "These two are making such an awkward situation now, why don't you choose one of them, Brother Kong?"
Kong Huaijin glanced at the man and his face turned pale.
It's easy to say, who to choose? Who to give up?
If he really did this, he might not make friends with anyone, but he would definitely make enemies with one of them.
In the end, Kong Huaijin decided to just ignore it.
He thought hesitantly, these two at least have some sense and won't cause trouble on his wedding day, right?
Feng Wenyu also became busy. As Jiang Zhilan's close friend, she had to add makeup for Jiang Zhilan's wedding. When she arrived at Jiang's house, it was still early, but Jiang Zhilan had already finished washing up.
The word "hun" is derived from the word "hun", and the formal wedding ceremony time is after dusk.
Feng Wenyu saw Jiang Zhilan's wedding dress. Every detail of the green dress was exquisite. The phoenix coronet and bridal bridal gown were carefully placed on a wooden frame and surrounded by screens. People could only watch from a distance and could not get close to touch it.
Kong Huaijin is now a sixth-rank official. His shawl is embroidered with peonies and cloud patterns, and he wears a sixth-rank civil official patch. There is no restriction on the types of gems on his phoenix crown, and his phoenix hairpin holds a pearl, which is brilliant and extremely gorgeous and luxurious.
Madam Jiang specially sent servants and nannies to watch over her, fearing that anything might go wrong.
Mrs. Jiang saw her and waved to her: "Ayu is here, Alan has been talking about you for a long time."
When Jiang Zhilan heard her name, she subconsciously turned her head, but the nanny hurriedly stopped her: "Oh, young lady, don't move. If you make a mistake with this makeup, you will have to do it all over again."
Feng Wenyu walked over quickly and saw Jiang Zhilan sitting in front of the bronze mirror. The two looked at each other in the mirror. While Feng Wenyu was happy for her, he also felt a little sour afterward.
After getting married, you will never feel as comfortable and relaxed as when you were in your boudoir.
Household affairs, husbands, children, sisters-in-law, and socializing, these things occupy their time one by one, and the focus of life shifts little by little. In the end, even if the two meet, they may no longer have any topics to talk about.
His heart was filled with emotions, but all Feng Wenyu could say was one sentence:
"Sister Jiang looks really good today."
Jiang Zhilan couldn't help laughing out loud. She glared at Feng Wenyu and said, "Don't tease me, girl."
There were many women of the clan in the room, and the girls and wives all surrounded Jiang Zhilan. Upon hearing what she said, everyone couldn't help but laugh with their hands covering their lips. No one would find fault today, and all the words they said were flattering.
Some people were praising Jiang Zhilan, while others were taking the opportunity to see Feng Wenyu, asking about her indirectly and saying good things in a roundabout way:
"If my boy could marry a girl as good as Miss Jiang and Miss Feng, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
Jiang Zhilan remained humble when she heard this, but she glanced at the clan woman who was speaking, and the smile in her eyes faded.
The man praised the two girls, but looked at Feng Wenyu tentatively.
Jiang Zhilan was speechless for a moment.
It was indeed a dream.
That prodigal son of her family, who is not even worthy of holding up A-Yu's skirt, dares to dream of climbing up the social ladder?
Feng Wenyu and Jiang Zhilan looked at each other. Both of them felt a little helpless, but they also knew that as long as Feng Wenyu's marriage was not settled, there would always be people who would make plans for him.
This secluded place can be said to be full of joy, but Kong Huaijin seemed to be in dire straits.
It’s not that Gu Yushi and Xie Zhujing were making faces at each other, but it was that kind of aura that made Kong Huaijin tremble with fear.
When the wedding procession was still one street away from the Jiang family, everyone saw the red silk gatehouse standing tall on the street. The Jiang family members were all waiting in front of the gatehouse.
Kong Huaijin immediately understood the situation and realized that it would not be easy to marry the bride.
As soon as I reached the gatehouse, someone handed me a bow and arrow, and laughter came from the front:
"Groom, this one is not easy. You have to aim at the embroidered ball in front of the gate!"
Xie Zhujing only learned the art of riding and archery after he became Song Zuoliang's disciple, so he didn't have a deep understanding of it. Moreover, this hurdle had to be overcome by Kong Huaijin himself, so he wisely took a step back.
Then, he stood together with Gu Yushi.
Both of them felt unlucky.
It was Gu Yushi who took the first step, glanced at the man holding the bow and arrow, raised his head and said in a loud voice: "Why are you playing tricks on me?"
When Kong Huaijin heard this, he immediately realized something and said with a smile:
"You kid, change to a good bow quickly!"
Xie Zhujing raised his head calmly, and Gu Yushi's back came into his sight, with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes.
He has been wondering these days why the young lady insisted on breaking off the engagement.
He intuitively felt that the problem lay with Meng Qiaojing, but Xie Zhujing could also see clearly that the young lady clearly did not mind Meng Qiaojing staying in the capital.
Couldn't find the reason.
But that didn't stop him from hating Gu Yushi.
This boy has evil ambitions. After he broke off the engagement, he became even more open about it, which is annoying.
