Perfect Encounter - Chapter 92

Mrs. Xue didn’t say that she has been in a hurry to ask the matchmaker to find another suitable girl, even from other counties. But no good news yet. However, when I received An Ruochen’s post today, I felt overjoyed. Mrs. Xue had heard the matchmaker say that Miss An was a bold lady, and she had actively arranged marriages for herself in the past, but with Master An around, she ended up marrying Master Qian from Fu’an County.

The matchmaker wentssip a lot, saying that people are not as good as the sky, the master of the An family probably didn’t expect that there will be a side issue in the end, and the young lady of the An family is so courageous that she just escaped from marriage and left home, and dared to beat the drum of injustice Reporting to the official alarmed the prefect and General Long, who insisted on retiring her marriage and leaving her An family status, making her equal to her biological father. But he also has real skills, entered the general’s mansion, not only became a steward, but also broke the secret crime of Zhaofu restaurant, and rescued Mrs. Liu who had been mistreated. Now it is even more powerful, it has fascinated General Long’s heart, and he is going to soar into the sky, ready to become the general’s wife.

The matchmaker said it with joy, saying that this matter is absolutely true. During this period of time, the marriage has begun, and the marriage is personally assisted by the prefect’s wife, and three matchmakers have been asked to discuss the details of the marriage. This is big news that resonates throughout the city and even the county, and it shocks everyone even more than the small crime committed by Zhaofu Restaurant. Everyone is spreading the word that Miss Anda is really superhuman and capable.

Mrs. Xue naturally knew that the matchmaker was exaggerating, but An Ruochen had some tricks, so it must be true. Therefore, when she received his call letter, she hurried to pay the call in person without saying a word. But I can’t wait until it’s convenient in a few days. The Xue family and Ms. An had never met before, and the news came suddenly, which probably had something to do with their marriage negotiation with the An family. I just don’t know what plans An Ruochen has in mind. No matter good or bad, let’s listen first, if we can help them, that would be great. Now that An Ruochen really had this intention, Mrs. Xue didn’t care what happened, and said everything.

“Miss, this is the case. Our Xue family does things openly and aboveboard. Marriage is a life-long matter, and we know the seriousness. My son is weak, and I will not hide it. Having said that, I can’t hide it. Instead of letting others chew Talking nonsense with my tongue, it’s better for me to tell the truth. My Xue family is sincere and will treat my daughter-in-law well.” Mrs. Xue said so.

An Ruochen asked: “How did I leave home, how did I enter Ziyun Tower, has Madam heard about it?”

Mrs. Xue was a little embarrassed. She nodded.

“Madam must know why I got engaged to Master Qian in the first place. My father’s reputation is just like that. He refused to marry Young Master Ling because of this reason.”

“Master Qian?” Mrs. Xue has spent the past few days worrying about her son’s marriage. Of course, she discussed and discussed with Master Xue about the reason for her son’s marriage, asking and inquiring. Her family’s master Xue Shu’en disdained to cooperate with Qian Pei and his like, and never betrayed his face. Qian Pei was dissatisfied, not for a day or two. Could it be that An Zhifu is not only unwilling to get married, but also worried about Qian Pei’s face?

That person Qian Pei heard that he had accomplished a lot when he was young, so he made many connections and taught some talented students. It’s just that maybe life is too smooth, and in this borderland, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and he is familiar with and protects him on both sides, making him even more arrogant, not seeing anyone disobeying him at all, and still enjoying sex, He has done a lot of immoral and disgusting things, ruining his former good reputation. The older you get, the more unscrupulous you become. Mrs. Xue sighed, it’s all right to discuss marriage with An Zhifu, if she wants to beg for Qian Pei, her master will probably die.

“Yes, it is indeed Master Qian.” An Ruochen nodded. “To tell you the truth, Madam, when I refused to get married and ran away from home, Master Qian and my father both held grudges against me. My father is the kind of person who likes to see profits. Whether it is the jade shop or the business, he dare not Offending Mr. Qian. Mr. Qian once mentioned that he would introduce marriage to my second sister, my father should be waiting for Mr. Qian, so naturally he dare not agree to other family’s marriage proposal.”

Mrs. Xue frowned: “Is it possible to rely on Master Qian to discuss this matter?”

“Not necessarily.”

Mrs. Xue breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said, “Please ask the eldest girl to show you the way.”

“It’s not good for Madam to mention this matter with my father again, and don’t go to Qian Pei. Otherwise, they will hold it in their hands. My father will forget it. Once Qian Pei is caught by him, there will be endless troubles. “

“But if you don’t mention marriage, how can this matter be done?”

“I’ll mention it, it’s more useful than Madam looking for a matchmaker.”

Mrs. Xue was stunned, but Miss An obviously had a falling out with the An family, didn’t she? Could it be that she relied on herself as the future general’s wife and felt that she could suppress the An family with her power? Mrs. Xue collected herself, and instead of asking An Ruochen how she could do it, she asked, “What does the girl want?”

An Ruochen smiled, this Mrs. Xue is eager to save her son, but she is not a fool, she is careful to guard against the Xue family being used by her. “Don’t worry, ma’am, I have nothing extravagant. I have suffered a lot from my father and Qian Pei. I escaped, and this madam knows. It’s just that madam doesn’t know. I once saw my sister because she was afraid of Qian Pei and Qian Pei. Daddy’s whip trembled and cried in fear. My little sister has disappeared for no apparent reason, and her life and death are still unknown. Now it’s my second sister’s turn. How can I have the heart to let her future life continue to be controlled by this wicked person like Qian Pei.”

Mrs. Xue couldn’t help being moved when she heard this.

“Mr. Xue’s weakness is indeed not a good match, and the reason for being happy really makes my second sister feel aggrieved.”

Mrs. Xue opened her mouth to defend, but An Ruochen did not give her a chance, and continued: “But Madam told the truth, she was not deceived, I believe Madam is sincere.”

Madam Xue breathed a sigh of relief.

An Ruochen continued: “I also understand that Mrs. Xue’s frankness was forced, because Master Xue and my father and the like have never gotten along with each other. Daddy is totally out of the ordinary. It is unreasonable to come to propose marriage suddenly.”

Mrs. Xue couldn’t refute this, if it was a girl from someone else’s family, she would naturally not say anything about the death of an eminent monk. What Chongxi said really wronged the girl’s family. Although she said it nicely, some eminent monk has criticized the horoscope, which is a match made in heaven, but in fact, no one can understand what is going on.

“It’s just because Mr. Xue looks down on my father and disdains to be with Qian Pei, so I think this marriage can be discussed.” An Ruochen paused, looked at Mrs. Xue, “Madam promised that she would treat my sister well. .”

“Naturally, naturally.” Mrs. Xue felt that she saw hope, and hurriedly said: “Don’t worry, my Xue family has always treated people generously. You can find out if you go to inquire. Even the servant girl at home, we are not harsh, let alone Lingmei is a good match for my son, she is my son’s noble person, if she marries, I will hold her in my hand and it will hurt.”

“Then there is one more thing. If this marriage is finalized, I hope that Master Xue and his wife will not take advantage of the An family, and they will not be manipulated by the An family and Qian Pei.”

Mrs. Xue was stunned, and said: “There are in-laws and family contacts. My master has always disdained anything out of the ordinary and will not be manipulated. Then there is Mr. Qian, what does it have to do with my family? A person who can’t be beaten , neither acquainted nor intersected.”

An Ruochen laughed, thinking that Mrs. Xue was really smart and able to speak.

Mrs. Xue saw An Ruochen smiling, and hurriedly asked: “How do you think this marriage should be discussed?”

An Ruochen said: “I want my second sister to meet Mr. Xue first. After all, she may become a young widow in the future. Let her meet to make sure of her heart.”

Mrs. Xue doesn’t like to hear young widows, and what An Ruochen means is to let her second sister go to see her son. Mrs. Xue endured it, and did not refute anything, but once again assured that the Xue family would not treat her daughter-in-law badly.

An Ruochen said: “Then let Mr. Xue meet my second sister. My second sister has been favored at home since she was a child, and she has a bit of a temper. If you don’t dislike me, this marriage can be discussed. Otherwise, my second sister will marry me. Husband and wife have resentment towards each other, quarreling and getting angry, it will not help Mr. Xue to recuperate from his illness.”

Mrs. Xue thought for a while before agreeing. After the two agreed, Mrs. Xue hurried back to the mansion to discuss.

On the second day, January 28, the sky was high, the wind was clear, the sky was blue and white, and it was an excellent weather. Zhonglan City was decorated with new decorations, and the red carpet was spread from outside the east gate to the city, with silk piles leading the way along the way, and the welcoming flag fluttered in the wind.

Early in the morning, the prefect Yao Kun personally led the welcome convoy to the general barracks, and greeted Huo Mingshan with the gift of a distinguished guest envoy. Jiang Song led two hundred cavalry from Zhonglan City to **** the convoy, and then escorted the envoy convoy back from the barracks, and sent them all the way to the prefect’s mansion. Afterwards, a hundred guards stayed in the prefect’s mansion, together with the guards arranged by Yao Kun. Rotate in the mansion to protect Huo Mingshan’s safety.

When Yao Kun arrived at the barracks, he saw Long Da, so he had the opportunity to talk to him in detail about the countermeasures that he had discussed with the officials yesterday. Long Dajun had no objection to other matters, but he was dissatisfied with Yao Kun waiting for Shi Pingqing to send envoys to send Huo Mingshan to Beijing after deciding this matter.

“Mr. Huo is a big target now. There are backstabbing shots everywhere in Zhonglan City. My lord has a very generous heart. He actually expects to drag the prefect Shi into the water to take responsibility together. My lord, don’t pick up sesame seeds and throw watermelons. If Mr. Huo is in the prefect’s mansion If anything goes wrong, my lord will be in the same situation as the prefect. If Mr. Huo is escorted to Beijing as soon as possible, won’t the prefect be at peace sooner, isn’t that the reason.”

Yao Kun was reminded, and he really took precautions in his heart, but he felt that the defense they arranged was so strict that no accident like Maojun’s would happen. “Well, yesterday Xia Zhou led people to go to Mao County at a fast pace. I will take Mr. Huo back first, and I will have to rest for two days. General, don’t stare. Mr. Huo is not a general at his age. It’s not hard, it’s okay to get sick on the way. In short, rest for two days. In these two days, I will discuss with Mr. Huo carefully about the matter of going to Beijing, and ask Mr. Huo to write the document for our county envoy to deliver to Nanqin. Two days later, regardless of whether there is any news from Mao County, I will send Mr. Huo to Beijing according to the agreement with the general. I have done my best, and today, Mr. Huo will not stay with me for three days. I am not worried about these three days Even if Mr. Huo is on the road, he must be vigilant for his safety along the way.”

“Xiao Zuo has been lurking in Zhonglan for a long time, hiding dangers everywhere. There may be traitors in the prefect’s yamen. The danger of Mr. Huo in Zhonglan City is much greater than that along the way. The same two hundred guards are there to protect Mr. Huo’s safety along the way. The confidence is much higher than in Zhonglan City.” Long Da pointed out the key point directly. If it wasn’t too necessary to put on a big scene for Nan Qin Dongling to achieve the effect of instant publicity, he would rather quietly send twenty elite soldiers in disguise to send Huo Mingshan away.

Long Da asked: “Have you handed over the memorial to the emperor?”

“Of course, I handed it out yesterday. Where’s the general’s?”

“Of course I handed it over.” Long Da asked again: “Is your lord ready for the customs clearance documents and official letters for the counties along the way?”

“These are all fine.” Yesterday, he had a busy day in and out of the yamen, setting up the city overnight, driving out all the cars and so on. It was not easy to be polite.

Long Dao: “Your Excellency will hold a welcome banquet tonight? It is announced that Mr. Huo will be a guest in Zhonglan City for five days. On the third day, Mr. Huo will be sent away before dawn.”

“it is good.”

“Find someone with a similar figure to Mr. Huo. Don’t tell the public, let him live in Mr. Huo’s house. Mr. Huo will move to another room.”

Yao Kun pondered for a while: “Okay.”

Long Da and Yao Kun looked at each other, and they both knew in their hearts that the rest was for Huo Mingshan’s safety.

The three days in Zhonglan City may be the most dangerous.

The Southern Qin envoys have entered the city, and there will be a big banquet in the evening. Does that mean the two countries will not go to war? The people of Zhonglan City rushed to tell each other, and everyone took to the streets to see the demeanor of the envoy. The city is decorated with lanterns and festoons, and it is full of joy, as if it is Chinese New Year again.

An Ruochen also went to the street to watch the fun, and she ran to Zhaofu Restaurant. Zhaofu Restaurant is the only place to go to the Yafu. People from all walks of life squeezed in early to grab a seat. The staff in the restaurant were extremely busy. It has not been full for a long time.

Zhao Jiahua huddled beside An Ruochen, among the spectators. When everyone was cheering, she whispered to An Ruochen, “I found some interesting news.”

An Ruochen looked around, squeezed to a corner, Zhao Jiahua also walked over, huddled behind An Ruochen, and said: “You asked me to keep an eye on Qian Pei, I paid him off with someone in the Zhonglan Mansion. Girl. That girl was also careful, but she finally said something useful to me. Qian Pei has a door in the side courtyard of Zhonglan City Mansion, which leads to another two-entry house. The main entrance of the house faces the other direction. But the Qian Mansion, which was separated by a wall, opened another door. It was said that it was the place where Qian Pei raised his girl, and it was also said that it was the guest courtyard when there were guests. The girl said that Qian Pei seemed to go to that yard sometimes, Also, he told the servant girls in the mansion to send food and clothing to the courtyard for daily necessities, all of which are exquisite and good things. The things are only placed in a room in the backyard, and they are not allowed to go in. The girl sent Clothes and other things are men’s items, and the size of the clothes shows that the man is thin and tall.”

An Ruochen’s heart tightened.

“The girl said that at the end of last year, it seemed to be around the 20th. She couldn’t remember the exact date. Qian Pei explained that there was no need to deliver things to that yard.”

Around December 20th? An Ruochen smiled and waved to the motorcade passing by the street together with the crowd around him.

Li Changshi and Li Mingyu died on December 21st. His plan was that he should go to the east city gate to distract the guards to give someone a chance to escape from the city. From then on, there is no need to deliver things to the yard?

An Ruochen knew the location of Qian Mansion, it was not far from Dingsong Pavilion. If the angle of the room is right, you should be able to see the bell on the Dingsong Pavilion, right?

Qian Pei, Qian Pei, you said that the fourth sister is not dead, where did the news come from?

“The tall and thin man’s stuff, have you given them away for three or four years?” An Ruochen asked.

“That’s right.” Zhao Jiahua said, “This time is quite appropriate.”

The author has something to say:

small theater:

Qian Shixin: Father, look, I said I would be dragged down by you!

Qian Pei: A villain must have the aura of a villain, why are you pretending to be gentle?

Long Da: Wait a minute, why are all small theaters reduced to villains and supporting roles?
