Chapter 291 Tonight the Drum Awaits the White Banner
Although Ji Qubing was known to be difficult to invite and he was always very mean, according to Wei Changying's experience, he still had Old Madam Song's affection in mind, and he could definitely be invited despite his ill-temper if it was Old Madam Song's children who needed help.However, this time, even though Wei Changying had tried to please him as much as she could, Ji Qubing still refused to go. The reason was that although the poison that Su Yuwu and Pei Kai had been poisoned with was cured, the process of preparing the antidote had inspired him and he had gained another insight into the usage of You Lai He. Now was the best time for him to focus on it, and he did not want to be distracted.In the end, Wei Changying was really anxious. Hence, he reluctantly gave in, “Either you send him here without any delays, or stop bothering me!”At this point, Wei Changying had no other choice but to send someone on a fast horse to report

Chapter 292 Mother and Son’s Temporary Separation
When Wei Changying returned to Grand Preceptor's mansion, Madam Su asked her about Song Yuwang's condition: “How is the minister of the public doing? Is he alright?”“Mother, Miracle Doctor Ji said that uncle had overworked himself, so he needs to recuperate for a few days.” Wei Changying left one sentence unsaid. As quoted from Ji Qubing, “It might be something that was troubling him instead of a physical illness.”Judging by the look of the three Song siblings, it was most probably something to do with Song Yuwang's late wife. She was Wei Changying’s aunt as well as Wei Changying’s father’s sister. It had been many years since she passed away, and Song Yuwang wasn’t someone who could care less about things like this. Hence, he couldn’t let go of his late wife. On top of that, it was common for people from the Song Family in Jiangnan to be very affectionate. Hence, the three siblings were at their wits' end, not to mention Wei Changying who was equa

Chapter 293 Wei Xinyong Was Mentioned Again
When they sat down in the small study, Wei Changying who was concerned about her husband’s brother asked, “Is the eldest brother not feeling well these two days? I was so busy that I didn't even notice although we’re living in the same mansion. What’s wrong?”Mrs. Liu said casually, “Every summer he tends to feel uncomfortable a few times after spending some time in the cold chamber.”Wei Changying was surprised and said, “I didn’t know that eldest brother has such a weak body?”“I heard Mother say that it happened before I married into the family. He braved the snow to chase an enemy in Western Liang. As a result, although he killed the enemy, he was seriously wounded. Because it was freezing cold and he was injured in the snow, it became something that could not be cured entirely.” Mrs. Liu's brow showed a hint of complexity before she said lightly, “However, you do know that it’s really hot these days in the capital, and it’s impossib

Chapter 294 Lu Cheng
Lu Cheng smiled and said, “In reply to First Miss, it is a coincidence. Last month was the birthday of the head of Zhijiao House. Although he likes to keep things simple, he could not resist the fifth young master who insisted on an act of goodwill. Hence, he agreed to host a few tables for a family banquet. Originally, they only invited the senior members of the clan and the sons and daughters of the next branches who are of good character, but the Sixth Master, which is the one you mentioned, was a county magistrate in Chaoyun County and was always keen to learn when he was in office. He had time last month and went to Fengzhou to seek advice from the head of Zhijiao House, which was coincidentally during the family banquet. Plus, he was also a descendant of the clan. Hence, he joined the banquet.Wei Changying proceeded to ask, “Then how did the matter of succession come up?”“It was an elderly from the clan who had met the Fourth Great Old Master

Chapter 295 Meet Wei Xinyong Again
Two days later, Wei Xinyong entered the capital. Right at that time, Wei Changying's return to her family was not packed up, nor did Lu Cheng set off.Originally, Wei Xinyong had his own ancestral house in the capital. However, currently, he was adopted by Ruiyu Hall. Deserted for years, his old house was no longer suitable for living. So he decided to visit Wei Shengyi first.Hearing about the news, Wei Changying asked Lu Cheng to come to her and asked, "Is sixth uncle going to live in second uncle's home for a while?"Lu Cheng shook his head and said, "Perhaps not. Two young madams are in charge of the backyard due to the death of the second madam. Sixth Old Master (Wei Xinyong) is too young to meet them in spite of several generation gaps between them. Also, the second and third young masters have to observe mourning for the second madam. Therefore, it is not the right time for Six Old Master to live with them."Wei Chang

Chapter 296 Resign
Wei Xinyong said with a smile, "Any bad consequences… Apart from those you had dealt with, Old Madam pursued the Family Head to send me to the Ruiyu Hall."Wei Changying looked different and knew what he said was that her grandma worried about her for fostering Huo Zhaoyu's marriage. Old Madam Song had been worrying about when her young oldest grandson could bear the burden of Ruiyu Hall. Now she heard her oldest granddaughter behaved so rude and confused in the capital. She had to seek an appropriate person in a hurry, even though the person could not be relied on.So she was responsible for turning Wei Xinyong into her uncle!Wei Xinyong looked at Wei Changying and said with a smile, "Do you really think it is definitely a trouble for me to be your uncle?"Wei Changying came to realize suddenly and said instantly, "You misunderstand me. Stupid as I am, I know you're of great talents and knowledge. It was difficult for us t

Chapter 297 See Through
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

Chapter 298 The Detective Gu Naizheng
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

Chapter 299 Did She Feel Happy?
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
