Chapter 124 General Ruan Passed Away
Qiu Yelan walked out, thinking in confusion. She found Dongran following her after she walked a long distance. "Anything report?" she stopped to ask.
"Lady Ciyi has not come so far. Should we inform her?" asked Dongran lightly. "Young Earl Ling has been here helping us now. But she is absent. This is...."
"Ruan Ciyi is not here?" asked Qiu Yelan with a surprise. General Ruan was still alive by his last breath, but he would pass away in any minute. Ruan Ciyi, the only grandchild related by blood was not in a hurry to see him. "Did you send somebody to invite her already?"
Dongran nodded. "The man came back and reported that she was a little busy now. She would be here later. But now Young Earl Ling and Qiu Nie have been here. Lady Ciyi still doesn't show up. This is...."
Qiu Yelan stopped to answer her for a moment and said, "Go and invite her again." She paused and continued, "Remember, if the thing she is busy with was not urgent,

Now that he was useless, he comforted Ruan Qingyan and left.At this point, Ruan Ciyi could not help crying. She was the unlucky one.

Fang Zijun, kneeling in the hall and sobbing, said timidly, "My clothes got dirty yesterday afternoon. I thought that was unfilial to great grandfather, so I asked wet nurse to go back with me and change clothes for me. Mom's maid Suxin gave me some delicious pastries. I remembered Uncle Ruan said Mistress Yan was having a younger brother and I would have a mate in the future, so I didn’t eat and gave them to Mistress Yan...."Fang Nongyan looked at the shocked Ruan Ciyi with a complex expression, "Ma'am?""No!" Ruan Ciyi said hastily. "Yesterday I...""Let him finish first." Since Ruan Qingyan, the host of the funeral, could not leave the hall now and Fang Nongyan's son said that in public, when Fang Nongyan suggested investigating it later, Ruan Qingyan stopped him, saying, "How can we allow the young ones to lose their virtue before my grandfather?"

Sure enough, after a few hours, Fang Zijun took advantage of his great-grandfather’s death to murder the concubine of his father and try to frame his official mother, which had been spread all over the city.Fang Nongyan thought it over and over again. He finally felt that he could marry another favorite concubine, but his only son was important. So he had to clean up Fang Zijun's biological mother, Hua, in accordance with the crime of instigating Fang Zijun to slander the lady of the house. In order to press things down quickly, he sank Hua into a river overnight.But what he did not expect was that the day after Hua sunk the river, in the Jing City, there were rumors that Ruan Qingyan was dissatisfied with his demotion for more than a decade and lost all his spirit, and he got a chance to return to the Jing City on his own. He deliberately designed Fang Zijun to slander his official mother in order to take the opportunity to get rid of Hua and Yan, so as

"Is it the Prince's Mansion of Xihe?" Qiu Yelan thought quickly for a moment and blurted it out.Fang Nongyan must not have the courage to fall out with Ruan Qingyan. Someone must have instructed him. Although it was the young lady of the Xue Family who clashed with Ruan Qingyan recently, it was Ruan Qingyan who suffered that time. No matter how crazy Miss Xue was, it would not be endless, was it?She wondered for a moment whether Miss Xue would vent her anger on Ruan Qingyan again when Jiang Yashuang refused her marriage. But now Xue Chang was about to use the death of General Ruan as a cover to catch his breath.

The mansion of Premier.Xue Chang's face was livid, "Were it you who asked your uncle from the same clan to instigate Fang Nongyan to sue Ruan Chunjun under my banner?""Dad, I... I didn't say that!" Although Xue Fangmi had been deeply loved by her father since childhood, she knew that in spite of Xue Chang's indulgence to her, it was impossible for him to let her make decisions on significant matters. Seeing that there was something wrong with his face at the moment, she immediately softened her tone and explained feebly, "I just said a few words about my hate towards that guy when visiting my aunt!"She tried to behave like an obedient and pitiful girl, "I guess... maybe my aunt and uncle misunderstood me?""How dare you still quibble about it?"

At the time, a couple had two ways to get a divorce. One was a peaceful divorce; the other was not an amicable divorce. Literally, if couples got a divorce peacefully, they might still be friends in the future. The husband might write some blessings on the divorce letter. But if a couple got a divorce by the latter one, they probably would want to kill each other if they met again.So, for a couple, to get a divorce through the second way was not easy. The officials might not approve the couple to get a divorce in this way if they could not provide sufficient evidence or they insisted on this way regardless of public opinion.This was Ruan Qingyan's ultimate aim. Actually, he did not trust the Fang Family. Through Fang Zijun's manner, we could say that he was not just a naughty and canny boy but a man. The Fang Family must not be a good one.

Unlike what Qiu Yelan had expected, Ruan Qingyan didn't go straight to her and lecture her. Instead, after he came back to Jing City from burying General Ruan in the Emperor's tomb, he didn't come to Qiu Yelan in half a month!The reason is simple: he was so busy!He had to thank the emperor, receive the guests, especially General Ruan's old contacts who had rarely visited him when he had been alive, and follow the end of the conflicts between the Ding Family and the Yang Family. This result was a relief for Xue Chang. As he had expected, his insisting on posthumously awarding General Ruan led Empress Dowager's party to suspect he wanted to seize upon the defeat of General Ruan that year, so their attention to the Ding Family and the Yang Family was distracted to a more important thing, the military command of the Western Army.The final result of the conflicts between the Ding Family and the Yang Family was that Ding Yiming, the head of Hanlin
