Qiu Zeyuan was so shocked that he grabbed her hand and hurriedly let it go, but Xin Daiyi held his hand firmly and said, "Don't be embarrassed anymore, I have already thought of a way to get the best of both worlds." Let's just turn the marriage into a family affair. ”

Qiu Zeyuan was confused, isn't marriage and family affairs the same thing? Xin Daiyi smiled, and then said: "Turn the marriage between the two of us who married Qin and Jin into a family affair of succession, and from now on I will be your own sister Qiu Daiyi, and there is no one else in the world." ”

Qiu Zeyuan got up suddenly and exclaimed, "No! I can't watch your life be ruined like this! ”

Xin Daiyi shook her head, the autumn waves in her eyes were as calm as the deep water of the ancient pool, "Whether my own life is successful or ruined is not judged by others, but whether I am happy or sad, happy or sad." To you, it seems as if I have been greatly wronged, but to me I am happy. I can keep my family's honorable position and stay by my loved ones forever, so why not? ”

"But you can't live like an ordinary woman in your life......"

"The so-called ordinary is just the way of survival for most people in this world, and the right and wrong of most people may not be the real right and wrong, why should I go against my own wishes for irrelevant people? Just like you treat your sister, in the eyes of the world, your sister is disloyal, unfaithful, and rebellious, but in your eyes, she is still a priceless treasure, flawless, and irreplaceable. Do you feel aggrieved? Even if there is really a little unwillingness, the faint wound of leaving her by her side is a hundred times better than the heartache of letting her go, isn't it? As much humiliation you can endure for your sister, I can bear as much sadness as you can. ”

Qiu Zeyuan was moved when he saw the perseverance in Xin Daiyi's eyes, but he still couldn't agree to her, so he said, "Xiao'er, I don't deserve to be treated like this by you." ”

"It's worth it only I know, you don't count."

Qiu Ze saw that she was still so stubborn, so he followed her words and said: "You also know that what I said doesn't count, so even if I promise you, my father won't agree." He wants a daughter-in-law, not a daughter, he already has six daughters, and there is no shortage of you as a daughter. ”

"As long as you promise me, I will have a way to convince Uncle Qiu."

Qiu Zeyuan hugged his head in pain, like a sleepy beast roaring, "No! I can't promise, you should marry a man with a noble family background, both civil and military, you should marry a man who loves you with all your heart, you should marry a man who makes your life carefree, you are so beautiful, you should not leave your most precious years to someone like me. ”

"You are the son of the overseer of Pudong, you have both ability and political integrity, looking at Pudong, no one is more noble than your identity. Sincerely, even if you can't love me as much as you love my sister, you will love me like a sister. It is just a blessing to let me live a carefree life, and how can there be such a person in the world who does not have the slightest sorrow? Since there are sorrows by your side, and there are worries about marrying someone else, why don't I choose you? ”

"You...... You can convince your father to come and talk to me again, and if he agrees, I will agree. Qiu Ze saw that Xin Daiyi would not give up no matter what, so he simply used Qiu Jiyuan as a shield to calm her down first, hoping that everything would turn around.

But Qiu Zeyuan never expected that his casual words would become the handle of his father's words to blackmail him into agreeing to Xin Daiyi's succession, he didn't know how Xin Daiyi persuaded his father, he only knew that when he saw his father again, this matter had become a military order, and his father said that as a son of man, he could not obey his father's orders, but as a general, he must obey military orders. When he went to find Xin Daiyi again, Xin Daihuai avoided him, and only asked someone to say that he would see him in the Qiu ancestral hall on the eighth day of August.

Qiu Zeyuan was not the only one who was stunned in the face of this news, Tong Fengyi first thought that he had heard the news wrong after hearing the news from his father, and only after listening to his father say it three times before he realized what his father was saying.

"Are you saying that Xiao'er won't marry Zeyuan, and she will succeed to the Qiu family?!" Tong Fengyi firmly grasped the armrests on both sides of the seat, as if he was about to crush the rattan core.

Tong Guangting bowed slightly, and said: "This is brought up by Dai Yu herself, and she is extremely affectionate to Zeyuan." ”

Tong Fengyi stood up abruptly and was about to run out, only to hear a shout from behind: "Stand down!" ”

Tong Fengyi's figure paused, but he walked out again, but was blocked by the guards at the door. He had to turn around and rushed to Tong Guangting, who was sitting in the same place and did not move, and said sadly: "Father, I can listen to your words, marry another woman as a wife, and I can endure the pain to watch Xiao'er marry Zeyuan." Because I believe that anyone in this world can harm me, but you don't. I also believe that Zeyuan will treat Xiao'er well and let her live a safe life, as long as she lives well, I don't care. But you actually buried your life for the sake of the family inheritance! I will never say yes! This time, whether you agree with it or not, no matter what the cost, I'm going to stop it. ”

After speaking, Tong Fengyi took out the pistol in the drawer, loaded the gun and rushed out, and the guards outside the door saw that the young master took the gun out, and they were so frightened that they retreated, but they were afraid of Tong Guangting's order......

They almost thought in an instant, if they were hit by the young master, it would only be a death, but the disobedient master was only afraid that life would be worse than death, and they surrounded them one after another, Tong Fengyi ordered them to get out of the way, but none of the dozen people dared to move, Tong Fengyi's eyes gradually appeared murderous, he slowly aimed the gun at the head of the guard in front of him, the person's pupils gradually dilated, and even forgot to breathe, the guard next to him saw Tong Fengyi's fingers slowly hook the trigger, and was so frightened that he held his breath, just at the moment when everyone's hearts hung in their throats, The gun in Tong Fengyi's hand made a soft "pop", Tong Fengyi looked at the pistol blankly, and then looked back at his father in disbelief......

Tong Guangting finally stopped sitting in place and making tea without asking about the world, he slowly walked to his son, pulled his son back into the house, and closed the door casually, Tong Fengyi was just about to move when he heard his father say: "If you want so many innocent people outside the door to die in vain because they know your thoughts about Xin Daiyi, just open the door." ”

Tong Fengyi's hand froze in mid-air, and after a while, he slowly withdrew his hand, clenched it tightly into a fist, and heard his father's low and cold voice ringing in his ears, "In the same way, if you want Xin Daiyi to die in vain because of your wanton behavior, just go out of the house." ”

Tong Fengyi's eyes were full of resentment and incomprehension, but Tong Guangting continued as if he hadn't seen it: "You are a smart child, you should know if I am scaring you or will I really do this?" Tong Fengyi, don't you love Xin Daiyi? To love her is to deprive her of the right to live in this world, is this to love her? Whether you want her to join the Qiu family and enjoy a lifetime of glory, or whether she will die a good death, you decide. ”

After speaking, Tong Guangting opened the door and walked out, and instructed the people outside: "Lock the doors and windows of the eldest young master's room, and you must take turns to guard in front of the eldest young master's door for twelve hours until the ninth day of the eighth month." If the eldest young master sneaks out of the house while someone is on duty, it is better for him to bite his tongue and kill himself immediately, lest it fall into my hands, and life is better than death! ”

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.

Tong Fengyi heard the sound outside, and sat on the ground in despair, today is the third day of the eighth month, and there are less than five days left, which is the day when Xiao'er joins the Qiu family, how can he go out and stop this tragedy?

He tried all kinds of ways, but either way would involve the innocent. Also, even if he doesn't care about other people's lives, how can he convince Ji'er to give up joining the Qiu family? After all, this idea was proposed by Chu Er herself, what if he broke through all the obstacles and Chu Er himself did not agree?

Tong Fengyi only felt that his head was about to be exploded by these thousands of possibilities and impossibilities, and just as he was collapsing, he suddenly heard Tong Baiyi's voice outside the door. The guards thought that the master only said that the eldest young master was not allowed to come out, and did not say that others were not allowed to enter, so they let Tong Baiyi in.

"Oops! My good brother, what did you do wrong? Can you make your father, who has always loved you, like this? I thought that only my dispensable second son would suffer from this unwarranted disaster, but I didn't expect you, the noble eldest son, to have a good life, and if you don't see it, you won't see it......"

Tong Fengyi was upset when he saw Tong Baiyi's yin and yang weirdness, so he simply closed his eyes and said coldly: "I did something wrong, and it is natural for my father to punish me, you should stay away from me at this time, so as not to implicate you." ”

Tong Baiyi gritted his teeth and thought that you didn't involve me enough?! But he still smiled and said, "What are you talking about, brother?" My father often taught us that brothers should share blessings and hardships, but now that my brother is responsible, how can I not solve my brother's problems and solve problems? ”

"I don't have to worry about my business......"

Before Tong Fengyi could finish speaking, Tong Baiyi continued: "Brother, don't you want to go out to find Xiao'er?" Do you want to watch her stay by Qiu Zeyuan's side like this, changing her name and surname for the rest of her life? ”

Tong Fengyi's gaze was colder than Xuan Bing in the abyss, "I warn you, I can tolerate you no matter how you usually mess around, but if you make fun of Xiao'er and ruin her reputation, I will never let you go!" ”

Tong Baiyi hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Don't dare, my brother misunderstood me, I don't dare to touch anyone at the top of your heart, I just want to help my brother and let the lover eventually become a family." If my brother doesn't want to, then I'll go. ”

After saying that, Tong Baiyi pretended to go out, as expected, Tong Fengyi really couldn't think about whether this was a trap or not, and said: "You wait......"
