Chapter 364: Triumphant Return Three Days Later
When the old marquis was seriously injured for the first time and on the verge of death, Cheng Qi was in charge of the border war.
The final battle in which the Northern Barbarians were defeated finally alerted the barbarians that something had happened to the old marquis, prompting them to put up a desperate resistance.
The old marquis is the soul of the old troops at the border. He is very powerful among the old troops at the border. Without him, they would be far behind.
The final battle lasted for several days and nights, and the old marquis, who was exhausted and had not recovered at all, put on his armor again and went into battle at this critical moment.
As soon as he appeared, the morale of the border generals was greatly shaken, and the morale of the northern barbarians on the other side was completely lost.
The old marquis led his old and new troops to attack Huanglong directly, and in one fell swoop killed and surrendered the group of barbarians.
But in this battle, the old marquis's old and new injuries recurred and he died on the spot.
The last time Cheng Qi wrote home, he was informing them of the old marquis's death.
He is now returning triumphantly with the old marquis's corpse.
"Cheng Qi is a good boy. I underestimated him. If I had directly assigned Shao Jing to him..." Qin stopped muttering.
Perhaps she was thinking of Qin Shaojing, her face turned serious and she snorted, "When Cheng Qi returns triumphantly, he will be given an official title and a high reputation. Once he becomes a new noble, he will be no worse than the second son of the second wife! She will definitely regret it!"
When Lu Lingyun heard this, she forced a smile and did not respond.
After coming out of Qin's house, Lu Lingjun looked at Cheng Yunshuo.
"When will you tell your mother about your father's affairs?"
Until now, they have not informed Qin of the old marquis' death.
This matter is too big for Lu Lingyun to make the decision.
She has to call Cheng Yunshuo over.
After hearing her words, Cheng Yunshuo pondered for a moment, "How long will it take for Cheng Qi to enter the capital?"
"Three days later."
Cheng Yunshuo's brows furrowed even more tightly at this time.
Three days later, Cheng Qi returned with the old marquis's body.
By then, they won’t be able to hide the secret from Qin even if they want to.
But now he doesn't have the courage to tell her mother.
He sighed, "We'll talk about it when the time comes."
After saying this, he walked out feeling extremely upset.
Seeing him trying to escape like this, Lu Lingyun did not chase him to interrogate him. What was the use of interrogating him?
Because Cheng Yunshuo is a person of this character, forcing him to answer will only make him hide further away.
Also, although Cheng Yunshuo likes to avoid problems, he is not a person who does not solve them at all.
When things have been delayed to the point where there is no more room for delay, he will step forward to resolve the issue.
For example, he used to ask Xing Dairong for money to make clothes, drew out his monthly salary in advance to balance Xing Dairong's account, and borrowed money from everywhere to help Du Ruo's brother fill his gambling debts...
He actually took everything to heart, it just depended on whether he had the ability to do it or not.
Once it was beyond his ability, he would start to hide and avoid it, but he would always keep these things in mind.
When the critical moment comes, he will stand up and get things done.
Men like him will make women very anxious and angry. The more they avoid him, the more anxious, disappointed and angry they will become.
I wish I could rush up to him, grab his ears and ask him if he is a man every time he tries to escape.
It's really hateful!
But Lu Lingyun has never been an impatient person.
She knew what kind of person Cheng Yunshuo was, so she just let him do it. Anyway, it would be fine as long as he got the job done in the end.
She wouldn't care even if the sky fell.
Seeing Cheng Yunshuo going out to relax, Lu Lingyun turned around and went back to the main courtyard.
As soon as she returned to the main courtyard today, the maids came to complain.
"Young Madam! You are finally back."
"What's wrong?"
"The Third Young Master is really mean!" Xiao Wei came over with a basket of torn and soaked books. "Look, we asked the Third Young Master to copy a page of a book today according to your request, but he soaked all the books in the room and tore them into pieces! There are also several rare books in there that you took out of your wedding box!"
When Lu Lingyun heard this, her eyes darkened. She flipped through the book in front of her that was soaked in water and torn into pieces, and a trace of anger appeared on her brow.
She really destroyed all her only copies!
This is a unique copy that she has slowly collected through her social interactions over the years.
Each one is worth a fortune!
"Someone, bring the Third Young Master here!"
"yes!"
At this time, Bishuiyuan.
Perhaps knowing that he was in trouble, Cheng Bingzhi hid in his mother's place early.
"Bingzhi, why are you here?"
Li Bixiang said happily when she saw Cheng Bingzhi running towards her.
"Mom!" Cheng Bingzhi threw himself into Li Bixi's arms, looking obedient and weak.
"What's wrong?" Li Bixi hugged her son distressedly. She was smart and noticed something was wrong. She quickly asked, "Did something happen?"
"Nothing, nothing!" Cheng Bingzhi didn't dare to tell his mother about the trouble he had made today. He just snuggled into her arms and said, "I just miss you."
"Mom, can I come back?"
"I don't want to stay in that person's yard. I miss my mother. Please don't send me away!"
Li Bixi was about to burst into tears when she heard her beloved son say such words.
She hugged him and went into the house, whispering in his ear, "Bingzhi, my good son, please be patient and wait. I will definitely take you back."
As soon as she finished speaking, Nanny Wan came over with a group of people.
"Quick, someone, bring the Third Young Master back to me!"
At Madam Wan's command, all the maids and servants rushed forward to grab the person.
Li Bixi saw this scene again, she hurriedly protected Cheng Bingzhi behind her, "Madame Wan, what are you doing? Bingzhi just came to visit me. Did the young lady take my Bingzhi away and never allow him to see his mother again in his life?"
Listening to Li Bixi's pretentious boasting, Nanny Wan snorted coldly, "Madam Li, don't you know how much trouble the Third Young Master has gotten into today?"
Misfortune?
Hearing the news, Li Bixi's heart panicked. She looked at her son behind her. At this time, Cheng Bingzhi burst into tears and hugged Li Bixi's legs tightly.
"Mom! Save me!"
"Mom, I don't want to go back!"
"What on earth did you do!" Li Bixi grabbed his arm and asked.
"I, I, I accidentally damaged my wife's book."
Hearing this, Li Bixian looked at Nanny Wan, "Nanny Wan, isn't it just a few books? The young lady is magnanimous and would never argue with a child."
Nanny Wan snorted coldly, "How many books?"
"The Third Young Master soaked all the books in the Young Madam's study and tore them up! There were many rare books in there that the Young Madam had kept in the bottom of her box! The Third Young Master is really capable!"
Hearing this, Li Bixi's eyes widened.
She never thought that Cheng Bingzhi could cause her such a big disaster!
"Someone, come! Take the Third Young Master away!"
Nanny Wan stopped talking to Li Bi'e and waved her hand. A large group of people quickly snatched Cheng Bingzhi away from Li Bi'e.
There was no hesitation at all.
The captured Cheng Bingzhi was held between two old women, crying and begging for help from his mother.
"Mom! Save me!"
"mother!"
