Xiao Cunyu looked back at her before turning and leaving. Now she couldn't see this person's future fortune, but she also hoped that she would have a happy marriage and a smooth life.
After leaving Jiang Zhi's place, Xiao Cunyu looked at the dazzling sunlight outside and felt quite relaxed.
She stayed in the Taoist temple for a while, saw many pilgrims, and discovered several ghosts wandering around the temple. She sent all the suitable ones to the APP.
Her luck was quite good indeed. Many of the ghosts that came to this place had unfulfilled wishes and hoped to get help from the gods, which would naturally extend her life.
The best thing is to be able to fulfill someone else's wish by spending money.
But now she no longer has the qualifications to be picky about ghosts, and the life span she earned is not much. She spent several hundred taels of silver to gain only two days of life. But this is a good start. Every extra day of her life span means she can live one more day. It is worth it.
Xiao Cunyu was already very satisfied, not to mention that she had already asked Wen Mianmian and Zhule to do the work, and there would be rewards soon.
Even the master of the temple couldn't stand her leisurely and contented look.
He could already imagine what the outside world was like now.
And just as the master of the temple thought, after Xiao Cunyu rode away, his figure indeed attracted a lot of people's attention. Ordinary people didn't care about these things, but on the streets where Xiao Cunyu passed, there were also many young men from wealthy families. They were amazed at first glance, but after looking at him a few more times, they were left with only a feeling of familiarity.
There are still many coffins displayed outside the Xiao family's house. Most people in the capital know what Xiao Cunyu looks like.
When they thought about it carefully, they thought of Xiao Cunyu, the corpse-digging devil.
Suddenly, goosebumps appeared all over my body.
At the beginning, no one doubted Xiao Cunyu's gender. They just thought that this young man from the Xiao family was really weird. A good man actually wore women's clothes and paraded around in the city. His already bad reputation was even more tarnished.
However, not long after, news leaked out from the Xiao family.
The cleaning women, the shopping servants, and the gatekeepers were all very talkative, especially when it came to such a ridiculous thing, it was impossible to conceal it. Soon, the news that Xiao Cunyu was a girl spread to everyone.
The next morning, it became the focus of heated discussion on the streets.
If Xiao Cunyu was just an ordinary person, this matter would be fine, but the emperor had granted the marriage, and now such a rumor has arisen. Soon, someone brought up the matter at the court meeting.
Minister Xiao has also prepared himself mentally.
Hearing others mention it, and then being mentioned by the emperor, he confessed honestly, "Your Majesty, I also thought my nephew was a young man, but I never thought it was a misunderstanding. My fifth brother grew up in the clan land and has been in very poor health. I'm afraid he was worried that his parents would worry about him having no successor, so he... concealed Cunyu's identity. Your Majesty... My niece is used to being carefree, has rarely read books, and even has little knowledge of the law. It's all my fault for not disciplining her properly. I ask Your Majesty to punish me."
Minister Xiao admitted it very directly.
Everyone in the court was shocked by this kneeling.
Even the person who brought up this matter was a little confused at this time.
He originally thought that Xiao Qillang's behavior was too dissolute and he should calm down and be a good husband, and stop stirring up trouble all the time. However, he didn't expect that the rumor was actually true!
"Xiao, Xiao Qilang is really a woman? How is this possible!" General Jiang received a letter from his granddaughter early in the morning, but he didn't believe it at all! This matter was even more shocking.
Censor Cheng's mind was buzzing. "Master Xiao, is there any misunderstanding? I've also seen your nephew. He looks like a handsome young man."
