Chapter 298 He found an aunt for himself
Without waiting for Wei Qingyan to speak, he continued, "I heard from your mother that the assassin wanted to break the evil spirit in order to nourish his soul, and also mentioned the Venerable's sweetheart. Could it be that they rescued Shi Dehou because they also wanted his body possession technique?"
"But Shi Dehou is not very talented in evil arts. After years of self-exploration, he is not proficient in the art of body possession. If the Venerable saved him, it was for this reason."
Wei Qingyan paused, "By then, if the matter is not completed, His Majesty will most likely kill Shi Dehou."
Then, Shi Yu and the others trapped in the cursed formation would also perish. Therefore, she really needed to get to Feng Zhao as soon as possible to break the formation. However, there were still many things to do in the Great Wei...
The emperor patted her shoulder and said, "Let's make the necessary arrangements and leave as soon as possible."
"Your Majesty, I suspect there is something hidden behind that casino." Wei Qingyan was still worried.
"I know..." Then he said something in Wei Qingyan's ear.
Wei Qingyan's worries were relieved a lot.
Yes, my father was just helpless against Shi Dehou’s evil magic, but he was excellent in governing the country.
The emperor patted her shoulder, then remembered something and asked, "What's going on with Wei Lao San, Lin Lanting, and Xiao Zhian?"
When mentioning this matter, Wei Qingyan's expression was indescribable.
On the third day after Lin Lanting was rescued, Xiao Zhian really visited the Wei family with generous gifts.
Wei Shijun thought that he came to thank her, and he should leave after putting down the gift and saying a few polite words, so she did not let anyone inform Madam Wei and went to the front hall to receive him.
Unexpectedly, after expressing his gratitude, Xiao Zhian proposed that he would like to meet Madam Wei as well.
He was Wei Qingyan's brother-in-law, and this request was not excessive, so Wei Shijun had no choice but to tell Madam Wei.
When Madam Wei found out, she naturally wanted to come out and meet him.
But to everyone's surprise, Xiao Zhian actually asked Madam Wei to marry Wei Shijun on behalf of his uncle.
The reason was that Wei Shijun rescued his uncle from the water and carried him on his back for a distance, so they had physical contact.
Lin Lanting should be responsible for Wei Shijun.
Wei Shijun was so angry that she lost her temper on the spot, "I don't need him to be responsible."
Xiao Zhian smiled and said, "Then please, Third Sister, take responsibility for my uncle. He is twenty-seven years old this year and has never had any concubines. He is as innocent as can be."
What he meant was that his innocence was now lost to Wei Shijun.
Go to hell with your third sister, who is your third sister?
Wei Shijun's eyes were about to roll to the sky.
My grandmother would definitely object because Lin Lanting is from Fengzhao and a prominent family in Fengzhao.
If I really marry him, I will have to go to Fengzhao, and if I give birth to a child, I cannot adopt it into the Wei family.
But since Xiao Zhian had this idea, how could he not be prepared at all?
He spent ten jars of the best peach blossom wine and asked Monk Wangchen to find out the whole story of Wei Shijun being forced to get married.
She said eloquently, "Old Madam, please listen to me and I will tell you in detail. Although my grandfather is still the head of the Lin family, in fact, the real head of the family is my uncle.
My grandmother had passed away many years ago, so my third sister wouldn't have to be under anyone's control after she got married. This was one reason.
Secondly, my sister-in-law is the Crown Princess Feng Zhao and also the Crown Princess of Wei. They will definitely live in both places in the future. In this way, my third sister can go back and forth with my sister-in-law in the future, so distance is not a problem.
Thirdly, my uncle is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Even though I am disobedient and always make trouble for him, he has never really punished me. He always cleans up the mess for me patiently. He is very loyal to his friends.
As long as my third sister wins his heart and has children in the future, my uncle will definitely agree to adopt one of them into the Wei family.
The reason I came here today is because my uncle treats my third sister differently.
In the past in Fengzhao, if a woman came a little closer, my uncle would stay three meters away, but this time he was willing to have physical contact with my third sister. Tell me, does he have feelings for her?
Wei Shijun listened to his crooked reasoning one by one and wanted to roll up her sleeves. "That's because if I don't save him, he will become a dead fish."
"So, why did my third sister save my uncle? Isn't this fate destined by God?" Xiao Zhian asked with a smile.
Wei Shijun's head was buzzing with anger.
Yes, why did she save Lin Lanting? Wasn't it because she saw that he had the same military spirit as his father, and because he was good-looking, and she felt a little bit of lust in him?
If she had known it would be so troublesome, she would have gone blind that day and not seen the half-dead fish in the water.
How could the child raised by Old Madam Wei not understand Wei Shijun? She has always been afraid of trouble and doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs.
It is indeed a bit far to marry to Fengzhao, but fortunately Qingyan is here, so the two sisters can take care of each other in the future, which is not a bad idea.
But Xiao Zhian was Lin Lanting's junior after all, and he had never heard of a nephew proposing marriage for his uncle, so he did not agree immediately, wanting to see Lin Lanting's reaction.
Lin Lanting was recovering from his injuries when he suddenly heard that Xiao Zhian had gone to propose marriage for him. He was so angry that he almost jumped out of bed.
But his legs were broken and he could only lie on the bed gritting his teeth.
No wonder that night when he came back, Xiao Zhian looked at him covered in wounds, cried and said he felt sorry for him, and then kept asking him about the details of how he was rescued.
He was relieved that his kindness to him was not in vain, but it turned out that he had such a ridiculous idea.
When Xiao Zhian came back in high spirits, he no longer cared about the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects, and said sinisterly, "You are successful now, you can even marry me a wife."
"Hey, I'm worried that you'll end up alone." Xiao Zhian retreated to a place where Lin Lanting couldn't reach him.
"It is said that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. My aunt is also a mother. The role of my aunt is very important to the future relationship between me and my nephew.
I actually know that one of the reasons why you don't want to get married is that you don't want your marriage to be used by my mother.
Rather than letting my mother arrange for you with those hypocritical noble ladies, Miss Wei San is a good choice. I felt that she was suitable for you at first sight, and she also happened to need a marriage.
My uncle, my father died early, and my mother is busy with state affairs. If you find an aunt who despises me, then I will really be an unwanted child in the future."
Lin Lanting felt sad and angry when he heard this. "You are already eighteen years old. People your age are already fathers, and you still say you are a child. Do you have any shame?"
"Why should you save face in front of my uncle? You are my relative." Xiao Zhian lowered his voice.
"I've heard that my mother has already found a suitable candidate for you and is waiting for you to return to grant her the marriage.
I don't want your pillow to be the Queen Mother's eyes. I also know that you look down on those women, otherwise, you wouldn't be unmarried until now. Uncle, I'm not messing around. Miss Wei San is indeed a good girl. "
He actually understood many things. His mother had her difficulties in that position, and he couldn't blame her for being afraid of his uncle.
But he only has a few relatives, and he doesn't want to see them develop grudges or even turn against each other.
He wanted to protect his uncle in his own way.
Lin Lanting's heart suddenly softened, and he softened his tone, "This is no joke. She saved me out of kindness, and you're ruining her reputation by doing this. You're repaying kindness with hatred."
"I'm not kidding. Miss Wei San is straightforward, good at martial arts, and not shy. Others look down on her and some even match her with old widowers in their fifties or sixties.
She saved your life and you had physical contact with her. If you don't marry her, are you just waiting to see her marrying an old man in his seventies and eighties?
That is repaying kindness with enmity.
Besides, Miss Wei San likes you and me, it's so rare to have the best of both worlds."
"It's ridiculous! How can you say such things? If someone hears it, how will Miss Wei live as a human being?" Lin Lanting scolded.
After a pause, he asked, "How do you know she likes you?"
How do you know he likes me?
Xiao Zhian knew very well what Lin Lanting really wanted to ask, so he said that his uncle treated Miss Wei San differently, like a turtle and a mung bean, and they fell in love with each other, but they just didn't know it.
He said seriously, "I am as handsome as Pan An, cute and well-behaved, of course she likes me.
"My dear uncle, you are as handsome as jade and majestic. There is no reason for her not to like you. Otherwise, she would not have saved you. She was concerned about your situation today."
Wei Shijun: "I'm just being polite because of the generous gift."
Xiao Zhian tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth, "If my uncle is really embarrassed and doesn't want to marry him, then I will marry him.
It doesn't matter if he's older than me. I can do it to repay my uncle for saving my life."
Lin Lanting thought Xiao Zhian was provoking him, and angrily threw a pillow at him, "Nonsense, who do you think Miss Wei San is?"
However, the next day, Xiao Zhian really went to Wei Mansion again.
The guard came to report that he was asking for marriage for himself. Lin Lanting's head was throbbing with pain, and he didn't care that he was still seriously injured. He immediately had him carried to the guard's mansion.
Because he knew that no one could take Xiao Zhian away unless he came in person.
But when he arrived at the Wei Mansion, he realized that he had fallen into his nephew's trap.
Wei Qingyan was helpless, "Xiao Zhian said in front of everyone that Lin Lanting went to the Wei Mansion to ask for marriage in person, and if Lin Lanting refused, it would ruin Third Sister's reputation.
But the third sister was unwilling. Before Lin Lanting could express his opinion, she ordered people to send them out. Xiao Zhian was playing tricks and refused to leave. He was the prince of Feng Zhao, and the servants of the Wei Mansion were not allowed to get close to him.
The third sister took action herself and accidentally injured Lin Lanting during the scuffle. Xiao Zhian has taken Lin Lanting to live in the Wei Mansion, saying that the third sister should be responsible for Lin Lanting.
Thinking of all the misunderstandings, Wei Qingyan held his forehead with his hand.
The emperor pondered and asked, "What do you think about this matter?"
