Xu Yan and his wife Qi have a very strong relationship, which is known throughout the capital, and some people even say that Xu Yan loves his wife like life. Qi now says that she is not married to the person she likes.

Xue Mingcan only heard Qi Shi's words: "He has won the Jinshi, and he will marry me soon." But one day, I was told that he had drunk and had fallen into the river and drowned. ”

Qi Shi couldn't say it calmly anymore, and she shed tears: "I know it's not true, he knows how to water, and he quietly told me that he pretended to be drunk when he drank outside." I have known him since childhood, childhood sweetheart, and he has never lied to me. He was killed! ”

"It's your husband." Xue Mingcan guessed. Qi snorted coldly: "Xu Yan is not worthy of being my husband at all, every time I see him, I feel extremely disgusted." ”

"Doesn't he love you very much?" Garan couldn't help but ask. Qi said: "The two younger sisters are young and don't understand. His love is terrifying, and I was born in my previous life to get such love. ”

When the Qi family entered Beijing that year, he gave Xu Yan, who was kicked out of the house and injured, some food and water on the way, but he didn't expect that he would put it in his heart. Xu Yan later went home and murdered his brother to take away the family business, inherited the title, and became the right-hand man of the six princes. He wanted to marry the Qi family, but at that time, the Qi family and his childhood sweetheart Lin Wei were married, and they were going to get married soon. Xu Yan actually sent someone to kill Lin Wei, and sent someone to the Qi family to propose marriage, wanting to marry the youngest daughter of the Qi family.

The Qi family is the second daughter of the Qi family.

She said: "My little sister already has a sweetheart, and she refuses to marry him." And Xu Yan already knew this. He even knows that the little sister has a resolute personality and will never compromise, and it is very likely that she will go away with her sweetheart. The little sister really did this, and was found out by her father and severely punished. Xu Yan expressed his dissatisfaction at this time, but said that he was willing to continue the marriage contract. My father was just a six-rank petty official, so he gave me to him. ”

Qi Shi hated: "I felt guilty for his kindness to me at the beginning, until by chance, I heard him whisper in a dream, 'Lin Wei is dead, you are mine', and then I knew that he killed my fiancé." As he killed my beloved, I will kill him. ”

The loving couple known in the capital turned out to be such a thing, Xue Mingcan and Jia Lan were surprised and felt that Xu Yan was terrible and pitiful. Qi suddenly smiled: "Sister, I am telling you this today, because I am not afraid that others will know." My heart is long dead, what's the point of living. ”

Xue Mingcan was a little sad, the Qi family could have married her childhood sweetheart who fell in love with Jinshi until she grew old, but because of Xu Yan's selfishness, she got to this point today. Others don't know what is going on, they only think that Xu Yan is affectionate, and Qi's is unkind.

"Sister Qi......" Xue Mingcan said movingly, "If you kill her, won't you become a sinner yourself?" ”

"Xu Yan is in a high position, if not, how can I take revenge?" Qi Wenzhen said, "Brother Lin Wei and I ...... We are childhood sweethearts, and we meet for a lifetime...... How can a convention not be counted? ”

Jing Zhaoyin's people quickly came in, comforted the Qi clan a few words, and hurriedly asked Jia Lan a few questions before letting the two leave. The two walked on the way back, the street was still lively, and on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the curfew was also lifted. Xue Mingcan recalled what Qi said and only felt terrible. In this matter, it was not only Lin Wei and Sister Qi who were destroyed, but also Sister Qi's sister and Lin Wei's family who suffered innocently.

The source of everything is Xu Yan's admiration for the Qi family, and it is the kindness of the Qi family back then.

Xue Mingcan was also worried about another thing, tonight was a deal with the people in the government. She didn't know how powerful the people of the Xue family were, and she didn't know if the people from the government would come to them again because of the investigation of the incident. Now it's not good to continue to live in the inn.

After weighing the pros and cons, Xue Mingcan and Jia Lan talked about Li Huaishu's house in the west of the city, and after Jia Lan agreed, the two left the inn the next day.

The house in the west of the city is a small house with two entrances. After Xue Mingcan knocked on the door, the servants inside were instructed early, and they placed the two of them properly with a smile, as if they were the masters here.

Xue Mingcan put his mind at ease, so the people of the Xue family couldn't find her.

In the afternoon of the same day, Li Huaishu came. There was a swing in the yard, Xue Mingcan was sitting on the swing, and Jia Lan was pushing her behind her back.

"I'm flying!" Xue Mingcan said loudly, "A little higher!" ”

Garan smiled and pushed the swing higher, "You can sit down!" ”

Li Huaishu stood under the eaves and watched quietly. Garan spotted him and stopped pushing the swing. Xue Mingcan got off the swing and said to Jialan: "He is my friend, Li Huaishu." ”

Li Huaishu walked slowly and smiled: "I heard the report, so I came over." Are you still used to it? ”

"Habit." She looked at Garan beside her and said, "This is my friend Garan." ”

Jia Lan is a typical Jianghu person, she hugged her fists and said: "Li Gongzi." ”

"Miss Garan."

After the salute, there was silence between the three of them for a long time. Xue Mingcan broke the silence, pointed to the swing, and asked Li Huaishu with a smile why he would put a swing in the house.

"Beautiful." The swing was only installed a few days ago. He thought that if Xue Mingcan really came here, it wouldn't be too boring.

The three of them sat in the courtyard, and the servants added tea and brought snacks to them. Li Huaishu is gentle and reasonable, well-informed, and can also talk with Jialan. Garan had a good impression of him. Asked about his family business in the capital, Li Huaishu said: "The family has some business in the capital, and some people in the clan are officials in the court. ”

"And do you know about last night's murder?" Xue Mingcan asked, she left the inn early today, and she didn't go out when she got here, and she didn't know what was going on.

"Are you talking about Xu Yan, Marquis of Anyuan?" Li Huaishu took a sip of tea, of course he knew about it. Xu Yan is King Liang's right-hand man, and King Liang knows the news of Xu Yan's death, and his face is not good-looking. Xu Yan, Li Huaishu, knows that he is a ruthless person. Such a ruthless person is famous for his loving wife in Beijing, but he was killed by his wife.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a mocking look, put down the teacup, and said, "Jing Zhaoyin is still investigating, but his wife Qi committed suicide by taking poison at home last night. ”

"Suicide ......" Xue Mingcan was surprised and then regained his composure, yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Sister Qi should go to meet his childhood sweetheart.

"Yes, they are notoriously affectionate, Xu Yan is dead, and the Qi family is afraid that they don't want to live." Li Huaishu said lightly. Xue Mingcan and Jia Lan glanced at each other and were silent.

After Li Huaishu left, Xue Mingcan took out the wisp of green silk wrapped in a red handkerchief in his arms. Last night, before the official came in to paint the boat, Qi cut off this strand of green silk and put it in a red handkerchief and handed it to Xue Mingcan: "Can you help me bury it next to his grave?" ”

At that time, Qi said with a smile that the sign of the Temple of Mercy and Grace was really very spiritual, and the Buddha let her meet someone who could help her fulfill her wishes. She is in the Marquis of Anyuan's Mansion, and there is no one worthy of trusting wholeheartedly.

Lin Wei was not buried in the capital, and his bones were sent back to his hometown in Huaizhou.

"When I leave the capital, I will go to Huaizhou." Xue Mingcan opened the handkerchief, and the bundle of green silk was about to be blown away by the wind, and the word "Wenzhen" was embroidered with yellow silk thread on the lower right side of the handkerchief.

This affectionate woman is named Qi Wenzhen. It's a pity that no one knows her name, they only know that An Yuanhou's wife is Qi.
