Chapter 401 Dare You Agree? If You Do, I Will Marry You!
"I am beautiful and young. I am unmarried. I can read and write, and I play the musical instrument and play chess. I can ride and shoot as well as men. I can say I am good at both the pen and sword!" Ou Qinglan stared at the lake not far away and whispered, "There are few men with my talent, not to mention women... What's more, I love you so dearly!""So why do you reject me? What does your ideal wife look like? Tell me. I can do it."Qiu Jinglan smiled, "Miss Ou, if it is not our destiny to get together, you can't force me to accept you. Besides, you don't have to wrong yourself. There exist lots of excellent guys who expect to be your destiny, I guess.""I don't believe that you want to marry an ugly, old, married, illiterate, clueless, and weak wife." Ou Qinglan ignored his interruption and still looked at the lake, carefully continuing. "Qizheng told me that you attracted many young women in the past, all of whom were beautiful and t

The door opened with a creak.Ruan Yi was leaning against the wall near the back door outside the Princess Royal's Mansion. Upon hearing the slight sound, he immediately awakened from his nap. He rubbed his eyes and looked over, just in time to see Qiu Jinglan stepping out."Young master!" Ruan Yi greeted and passed Qiu Jinglan the stove for warming hands, "It's freezing tonight!"Qiu Jinglan waved his hand, "Keep it yourself. I'm okay." He sounded calm, but Ruan Yi vaguely saw his mouth tilt upwards into a smile with the help of the faint moonlight. Ruan Yi asked curiously, "Young master, how is Miss Ou?""It's all done." Qiu Jinglan understated, "Okay, let's go back! There is still something to do tomorrow."Ruan Yi heaved a sigh of relief and smiled happily, "Has the young lady finally agreed to stop pestering you? That's so great! Let me see. It is time for the Han Family to give an accurate answer tomorrow

After they finished dealing with their issues, Shazhou just became peaceful again. At the same time, in Jing City, there was a mess.First, Jiang Tianao and Jiang Tianqi doubted that the fourth branch murdered their sons with Qiu Jinglan. However, under the pressure given by Marquess Qin, they didn’t dare to charge against the fourth branch or the Ruan's Mansion. So, they turned their targets to Qiu Qian and Mei Xue. They forcibly captured the two ladies. And they hoped that they could ask something valuable by torturing them.However, by the time they captured them, the fourth branch began to fight against them fiercely."Father, it must be the fourth branch!" said Lu who hugged her son, Jiang Jingzhao, and wept tears of sadness in front of Jiang Tianao. "Qiu Yelan said she just wanted to find someone from her maiden family. However, she stealthily captured all my second aunt's family members. Now all my brothers have been missing. It m

Two days later, the message came from He Shuijin and the others, saying that they had found the place where Qiu Qian and Mei Xue were being held and they had succeeded in buying over the guards. They asked Jiang Yashuang and his wife to superficially send someone to "kidnap" them so that the guards wouldn't have to be blamed for that.Jiang Yashuang sent some of his men and they were able to get them out easily. But...After the two were "kidnapped" and settled in another courtyard, Su He, ordered by Qiu Yelan to go to comfort them, soon came back to Marquess’s Mansion to report, "Madame, we kidnapped the wrong people! Those two are not Miss Qiu and Miss Mei at all!"Qiu Yelan was shocked and then furious, "Go to the third branch and ask what's going on!"At this time, they said that Jiang Tianao and Jiang Tianqi were so cunning that they made a fool of the daughters-in-law. Su He went to the third branch and asked He Shuiji

The three of them were in a great hurry. They did not even bother to pretend to be sad for Jiang Qizheng and rushed into the mansion to chase after Sir Jibei. Could it be that Jiang Yadan had been secretly attacked by the first branch and the third branch in Shazhou or on the road?However, although Sir Jibei was old, he was a military officer and walked with long strides. At the moment, he had entered Marquess Qin's courtyard!"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Marquess Qin did not go to the gate to welcome Sir Jibei because he was the elder brother, but still waiting in the corridor of his own courtyard. Seeing Sir Jibei enter, he frowned. He did not ask anything but only ordered, "Go back to your mansion first. Ask your wife to make you a bowl of hot soup. And have a good sleep. We'll talk about the thing after you get enough energy!""Yayue and Yaqing..." Sir Jibei spoke up but then was interrupted by Marquess Qin, "They are alrea

At the moment, there was tension in the air in Marquis Qin’s study!Sir Jibei had not yet arrived, but the first branch and the third branch’s anxious men who could come were all there.Because of Madame Dou’s death, the first branch, except for Jiang Tianao, was in mourning apparel. And as for the third branch, two frightened-looking sons of concubines of Jiang Yaqing, who were less than ten years old, walked beside Jiang Yayi and Jiang Yaheng, wearing mourning apparel as well. Just by looking at the situation, one could see the determination of these two branches to get to the bottom of the matter!But Jiang Yashuang, who had been educated by Marquis Qin and Empress Dowager Jiang since he was young, was used to scenes. So, despite the stiff and heavy atmosphere in the study, he was far from being intimidated. When he entered the door, even though he was looked at by the two branches with hatred and indifference in their eyes, he calmly

Hearing this, Sir Jibei's facial muscles tautened and his heart suddenly was filled with disgust, "My second brother has been partial to you all these years. His children and grandchildren have suffered a lot for so many years. But I never saw you make any allowances or show sympathy for them! If you had felt for them and known the truth of being self-restraint and forbearing, the third branch and the fourth branch would have had less resentment. So how can you have today's woe?""Now I want to help the fourth branch to get rid of it for the sake of the overall situation. You are glibly professing that I treat Jiang Tianchi as my real son. You should kneel down and cry in public. Do you imply that I'm unfair?"In such a situation that Jiang Tianao cried heartfeltly and Jiang Tianqi followed to kneel down and beg, Sir Jibei felt very sad, "What's the purpose of me to plan so painstakingly and rush around regardless of my old age, infirmity, and injuri

A few moments later, a dozen pieces of evidence put on plates were brought in, along with a string of people who were handcuffed together. Marquess Qin’s study was designed earlier to double as a meeting room so it was spacious enough. Otherwise, there would be no room for so many witnesses and they would have to go outside together to watch.Sir Jibei had the physical evidence on the plate distributed to the first branch and the third branch, and then said coldly, “You can personally see the physical evidence and ask the human evidence! I’ll wait here, but if you have any doubts, just say so!”Jiang Tianao and Jiang Tianqi took the physical evidence and looked at the human evidence, feeling bitter, “My third uncle has already said that the deaths of Yayue and Yaqing had nothing to do with the fourth branch. So, how could there be anything left in the evidence that had anything to do with them?”Sir Jibei, who was the former commander of

Jiang Tianao walked into the room with a livid face. After sitting down, he found that Jiang Yahong had been creeping along with him. He scolded angrily, "Didn't you hear what I just said? Hurry to pack up!""I have ordered the manservant to tell Madam Zhuang to pack up." Jiang Yahong said carefully appearing submissive and meek, "I am worried about you, father, so..."Jiang Tianao looked at the son of a concubine who had never gotten any attention from him. The son stared at his father with an awkward and concerned expression. Jiang Tianao's heart was mixed with all kinds of feelings, and his tone eased down, "I'm all right. Get your things done first!""Can I offer you a cup of tea before leaving?" With a moment of hesitation, Jiang Yahong asked softly.He had practiced in front of the bronze mirror countless times for this moment. His tone, his behavior, and his expression were just to the point. The sincere spirit of try

"The dead are never as important as the living!" Jiang Yashuang smiled. His eyes seemed to have eternal ice, without any warmth. He stood with his hands behind his back. He wore a blue shirt and a jade belt, and his demeanor was elegant. He said calmly, "So after my eldest uncle and my third uncle conspired to murder my sister and her companions, you want to request grandfather and my youngest grand uncle to give the military power of the Western Army to your branches! Because you have sworn enmity against our fourth branch, if grandfather and my youngest grand uncle do not give you enough capital for your living, after my father intervenes, you will not be able to survive on your own!""For the same reason!""Although my second uncle and my fifth uncle who are blocked in Kui County are not allowed by my eldest grand uncle to be officials, after all, they are my eldest grand uncle's sons! And it is you who mostly have caused the situation! Grandfathe
