After he had left, Wei Zhengyin breathed a sigh of relief and spoke to her niece with a smile, "Now we know why he was adopted into Ruiyu Hall. Your second uncle wanted to resign, but fortunately, he was there in time." She felt a bit regretful, "He is tight-lipped though. I wanted to find out how he had actually dissuaded your second uncle, but I failed."
"In my view," Wei Changying smiled and said, "The second uncle wanted to resign. But having seen that Wei Xinyong had come to the capital, he knew that this trick wasn't going to work, so naturally he didn't want to resign anymore."
Wei Zhengyin said, "Probably true, but things couldn't possibly be this simple." She asked thoughtfully, "From what Wei Xinyong said just now, it seemed that he was annoyed by you. Did you hold a sword or something to his neck before?"
Wei Changying said with a smile, "I have said before. I had threatened to harm him."
"I thought you just threa
In the next few days, because of Wei Huan's handwritten letter, and Wei Zhengyin and Wei Changying's recommendations, Wei Xinyong met with every powerful official in the imperial court, and all of them spoke highly of him. Some people even questioned Wei Qi's age, "He is such a talent. No family could think they could have enough bright sparks like him! Marquis Jingcheng even allowed him to join Ruiyu Hall. Is he too old to think straight?"They also suspected Wei Qi's children, "Or, they are jealous of him and don't want him to be famous, so they forced Wei Xinyong to join Ruiyu Hall, didn't they?"These thoughts were from ordinary people who used common sense to speculate. The capital was so big that there could always be surprises. Since there were strange people like Gu Naizheng who had big mouths, there would be extraordinary speculations.Firmly and full of confidence, Gu Naizheng said, "Why is it so strange that my wife's sixth un
When Wei Changying was reminded, she suddenly remembered something. On that day when Shen Cangfeng's spear was made, everyone happened to visit him in Jintong Courtyard... Gu Naizheng said that the person who did it was Wei Changying. Duanmu Wuyou wanted to fight with Gu Naizheng furiously. It was so chaotic that Wei Changying didn't ask the reason. She thought that Gu Naizheng might hear some wrong gossips from elsewhere. She didn't expect that he began to spread rumors about her at that time.She was about to spit blood and asked, "I don't know how I offend my brother-in-law. Why does he want to slander me?"Su Yuli was so embarrassed and said, "Don't get him wrong, cousin. In fact, my husband didn't dislike you. He said that... Because... Because he... Just like this time, he speculated that it was so."Seeing Wei Changying was confused, Su Yuli shamefully explained the whole story for her husband, "After hearing what happened in Furo
Ji Qubing was a skilled famous doctor nationwide. The point was Wei Zhenghong was likely to recover soon. All people concerned were entirely shocked by the news.In the Wei Family's mansion in the capital, Wei Shengyi was really weak and feeble in his seat, staring at the beam of the house. He appeared to be dead and extremely bored. His chest rose and fell slightly.Having heard of the news, Wei Changyun and Wei Changsui arrived together. Seeing that, they could not help bursting into tears. They knelt down to him together and said, "Father! Father! Given that unfavorable situation towards our branch, you have to take care.""Take care? How can I take care?" Wei Shengyi said desperately. With the two lineal sons pulling his sleeves, he looked up and said sorrowfully and dully, "My father’s wife had tried to pressurize us, and my father the eldest branch. Previously, I lamented the efforts I made in the capital alone over the past twenty
"Let me out! Let me out! Mrs. Min, Mrs. Zhou, how dare you lock me in just because you are my sisters-in-law? You treat me as a criminal. Hope you b*tches will be dying pointlessly." Wei Changjuan cried crazily, slapping the door heavily.Right outside the wall, Mrs. Min and Mrs. Zhou wore anger on their faces and told the women servants, "Watch out for Seventh Miss, and don't let her go. Got it?"Mrs. Zhou added scornfully, "You guys would be dismissed if you failed to keep eyes on her."After Mrs. Duanmu's death, Mrs. Min and Mrs. Zhou had been in charge of internal affairs. Those women servants had to take it seriously due to the oral instruction made by Mrs. Min and Mrs. Zhou. They pledged to the two young madams, "Just rest assured. We'll do everything we can do to supervise Seventh Miss."Back to Mrs. Min's room, the servants were sent away. They two were tasting the tea leisurely. Mrs. Min said, "Liu Ruoye hasn't been
Wei Changying was not the only one who felt worried. In addition, Min Zhixia and Duanmu Ruomei were teaching their daughter, "Now the engagement with the Song Family had been set already. Song Zaijiang's good disposition is well-known in gentlefolks. Otherwise, he would not have stood Duanmu Wuse being his wife for so many years while she had no child and was rude. As long as you abide by rules and maintain a good relationship with Mrs. Huo and Song Zaishui after getting married, you will live a harmonious life with Song Zaijiang."Min Yinuo said with respect, "I got it."Duanmu Ruomei said in a good mood, "You are the second wife of Song Zaijiang, but you don't have to lower your head in front of Duanmu Wuse who was kicked out of the Song Family. You have no difference from the first wife of Song Zaijiang except for the title. There are the fewest sons of the Song Family among the latest two generations, but Duke Duanhui and the minister of the publ
It was in Jintong Courtyard in Grand Preceptor's Mansion. Whilst listening to a manager's report, being distracted, Wei Changying was thinking about how many days had passed, "Two days ago, my brothers-in-law must have escorted Miracle Doctor Ji to Fengzhou. How long will it take for Father to recover from his illness? Grandmother and Mother must have been very pleased at that moment. And, so is Changfeng."Only when the manager was almost finished did she pay attention to what the person was saying. Having combined what she had heard at the beginning and at the end, she gave a solution to the manager. The moment this manager had left, the next one came up and handed her the account book.She was busy until noon. Wei Changying was used to such busy days nowadays.After lunch, she took a nap as usual, but this day she couldn't sleep, so she told Zhu Lan to come to massage her shoulders. While Zhu Lan was massaging her should
Wei Changying was a bit surprised, asking without thinking, "Is Cangfeng seriously injured?" Although she was worried, seeing her mother-in-law looking calm, she guessed that Madam Su didn't think his injury was serious, so Wei Changying was calm despite being surprised.Seeing that she hadn't become flustered, Madam Su nodded slightly, thinking that daughters-in-law did need to be trained. When her third daughter-in-law had just become married into the family, she had been innocent and shy. At that time, she heard the people in the Jintong Courtyard privately say that Mrs. Huang and Mrs. He had had to teach her everything personally and give her advice so that she could make things happen. Now she had been in charge of the family for some days, so she was much more experienced. If her daughter-in-law was capable, her son wouldn't need to worry much in the future. This was what Madam Su was very pleased to see, so she didn't think that her daughter-in-law didn't
"The frontier was far away and barren and the tough war made it difficult to return."With heavy snow for consecutive days, the inside and outside of the city of Western Liang were covered with snow. Along the highway out of the west door, a line of carriages moved slowly. Among them, a carriage, with carved lines, red paint, and bead curtain, was protected heavily by others. It seemed to travel a long distance with its body covered by dust, but its gorgeous gloss could not be shaded.Several passers-by out of the city, who moved hard against the snow, stared at the carriages surprisedly.But away from the procession, a clear voice, like the orioles, came from two horses, which were surrounded by guards inconspicuously. Gu Rouzhang, wearing the male outfit with a dark black veil covering her face, held the rein with one hand, put the horsewhip on the mane, and said, "I started to learn the poem a few days ago and just remembered two sent
