Chapter 501: Hard to Retreat
In the end, Lord Wang sentenced Xia Weaving to a decisive decision with a corrupt official, and reported to the capital for approval; On the one hand, he ordered all the confiscated property to be sorted into a book, and those that could not be moved, such as workshops and shops, as well as officials, dependents, and slaves, etc., were sold on the spot; On the other hand, he sent a sea fishing document, searched for Xia Meteor everywhere, and rescued Guo Qingdu.
In the hall, everyone was thrilled to hear it - finally brought down the corrupt officials!
Wei Zhao said to Fang Chu: "Brother Fang can rest assured now." Miss Guo will definitely be able to get it back. ”
Fang Chu said: "It would be nice if it was really this simple. Didn't you see what happened to Aunt Ouyang? ”
Wei Zhao said: "Miss Guo is auspicious, and she will be safe." ”
Fang Chu said: "People are terrible, I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it." ”
Wei Zhao looked at him carefully: except for his eyes full of worry and anxiety, there was no other emotion, so he patted him on the shoulder to show encouragement, and said, "When I get it back, everything will depend on you." ”
Fang Chu said firmly: "I will not let her suffer the slightest grievance!" ”
The tone was confident and resolute, and Wei Zhao was stunned when he heard it.
He couldn't help but wonder, where did Fang Chu get this confidence?
Fang Chu looked at the hall with blazing eyes, and thought quietly: "I will definitely give you a decent marriage, so that all the daughters of the boudoir will envy your glory and happiness!" ”
After the court trial, Ouyang Mingzhe, the son of the Ouyang family, wanted to take Ouyang Mingyu's body away, but Yan Jipeng refused to let him, he was entrusted by Ouyang Mingyu to personally arrange her funeral.
"Do you think she is still willing to go back to Ouyang's house?" He glared at Ouyang Mingzhe.
"Are you going to take her back?" Ouyang Mingzhe felt incredible.
"She won't go to Yan's house. I've got my own place for her. Yan Jipeng said coldly.
Ouyang Mingzhe wanted to stop it, but felt bored. People are dead, what are they fighting for? Besides, my sister personally entrusted Yan Jipeng in the court, and everyone heard it. It's better to get her wish.
So, he let Yan Jipeng take Ouyang Mingyu away.
Yan Jipeng set up a mourning hall in the Yan family's private house, preparing to be buried after three days.
Even though he knew that Ouyang Mingyu would never want to enter the door of the Yan family, he was also very sad for her: his mother's family did not want to go back, the Xia family did not want to go back, and the Yan family could not enter, but it was a pity that there was no place for her in this world. Even being a ghost is also a lonely ghost, and he is helpless!
Thinking of this, he broke his liver and intestines.
Meantime. The Xie family also opened a mourning hall.
This matter once again set off a wave of discussion in Xiazhao City, and the Xie family, the Yan family, and the Ouyang family bore the brunt and were the most affected, and then it was the turn of the Han family, who had just made a marriage with the Xie family. The Guo family and the Fang family were implicated.
After Master Han heard about this. My eyes went dark and I fainted.
Mrs. Han was so shocked that she almost fainted, and hurriedly ordered the doctor to give first aid.
However, it is not trivial for Master Han to faint this time, and he can't wake up for a few hours. Mrs. Han was only afraid that his limit had come, so she endured panic and grief and ordered someone to quickly find Han Xiyi.
He didn't know where he went, so he must have been looking for Guo Qingmu everywhere.
It wasn't until evening that Master Han woke up leisurely.
Summer evenings. The croaking of frogs reminds him that he is still alive in the hustle and bustle of the world.
Candlelight. Mrs. Han was standing at the head of the bed, staring at him.
When she saw him wake up, she burst into tears and held his hand.
Old Man Han opened his mouth with difficulty and muttered, "We, aren't we, doing something wrong?" ”
Mrs. Han choked up and said, "No! The old man thinks too much. I heard that the old lady and the eldest master of the Fang family also came to Xiazhao, and the young master of the Fang family was not allowed to marry Miss Guo. Even Fang Hanhai and his wife are also embarrassed. It's just that Fang Chu has been expelled from the clan, and they can't control him. ”
Master Han said: "It's still wrong! ”
Mrs. Han couldn't persuade her anymore.
She understood that he was referring to the relationship with the Xie family.
Master Han looked at the top of the bed with blank eyes, and said in a low voice: "Is this our retribution for treachery?" Come...... So fast? It's a pity ......"
It's a pity that it can't be changed!
Ouyang Mingzhu died, and the suspicion that she deliberately murdered her sister Ouyang Mingyu was cleared, and it did not disgrace the Xie family, but smart people don't need evidence at all, so they can naturally understand the twists and turns.
But the Han family can't quit at this time.
If you retreat, you won't be a person inside and out.
Unless, the Xie family can take the initiative to withdraw from their relatives.
This may seem like a bit of an extravagant expectation.
Master Han tried to use his remaining sanity to figure out the pros and cons of this matter, and finally found that something was wrong: his son begged the Xie family to take the initiative to withdraw from his family, and it had been so long, and no one from the Xie family had come forward. He was quite happy, but now it seems that people have already calculated.
Master Han swallowed his breath at the beginning of the year (seven o'clock in the evening), and Han Xiyi was not around.
The Xie family went to the Han family to report the funeral in the afternoon, and the Han family went to the Xie family to report the funeral in the evening.
Xie Yinyue was crying in front of her mother's spirit, and she was stunned when she heard the letter, and she had a strong crisis in her grief.
After sending the mourners away, she looked at her father on the side, who had been stunned since he came back from the yamen.
Xie Yinyue said to Xie Tianhu: "You are waiting here. I waited for my father to rest. ”
Thank God that he was in the mood to ignore her, crying so much that he couldn't tell the day.
Xie Yinyue and Jinxiu helped Xie Mingli together, entered the inner room of the back hall, waited for him to lean on the chaise longue, and then ordered Jinxiu to serve some food and drink, and knelt down in front of his father.
"Father, Uncle Han has gone." She whispered to him.
Xie Mingli's eyes were blank and he didn't react.
Xie Yinyue nudged him again and repeated again.
Xie Mingli turned his gaze to her and seemed to ask her what she said.
Xie Yinyue repeated it again: "Uncle Han went. ”
Xie Mingli blinked, trying to think of "who is Uncle Han".
After a while, his thoughts gathered, and he remembered that the surname Han was his in-laws, and then his eyes suddenly froze - what, he went! Why did you go?
He immediately remembered the situation in today's court: he was once proud of being better than Yan Jipeng to hug the beauty, it turned out to be a joke, and the real Ouyang Mingyu hated him to the bone; And that's nothing, the most hateful thing is that his wife died, and they forced her to death!
He has no face today!
The Xie family has no face today!
Master Han must have known about Ouyang Mingyu before he passed away suddenly.
Xie Yinyue saw that her father's eyes were clear, so she reminded: "Father, the Xie family is at a critical juncture of life and death. Although my mother was in the name of Ouyang's grandmother, how could others believe it. This matter must be clarified by the Ouyang family. ”
Xie Mingli thought quietly.
After a while, he asked, "Is your uncle here?" ”
Xie Yinyue nodded and said, "Uncle is here." I'll arrange it over there in Mingtang. ”
Mingtang was originally the courtyard where her second uncle and aunt lived, but after they returned to their ancestral hometown, it became vacant.
Xie Mingli asked again: "Where is Ouyang Mingyu's soul?" ”
Xie Yinyue said: "I heard that it is in a private house of the Yan family. ”
Xie Mingli sneered when he heard this: "I thought he would welcome her into the gate of the Yan family!" ”
On the other hand, he said, "I'll go see your uncle." ”
Xie Yinyue helped him sit up, just as Jinxiu brought some ginseng soup, she hurriedly took it and personally served her father to drink it, and then ordered someone to send him over.
Xie Mingli went to Mingtang, his momentum was not the same as just now, his eyes were sad and sharp, staring at his brother-in-law Ouyang Mingzhe silently, and he had the attitude of asking for guilt.
Ouyang Mingzhe was weak-hearted, his eyes dodged and he didn't dare to look at him.
