A black horse ran wildly, carrying a large basket behind it. A huge piece of cloth hung on the horse's back. The word "Letter" could be faintly seen at the door.
This is a messenger from Youzhou City, specifically responsible for delivering letters from Youzhou City to the Kingdom of Wu.
The messenger's horse stopped at the door of Guo's courtyard, and the messenger hurriedly knocked on the door of Guo's house.
"Mrs. Guo, a letter has arrived from Mr. Guo," the messenger shouted.
Zixing ran out quickly and said: "Coming, coming!"
He opened the door and took the letter from the messenger.
Purple Star habitually gave the messenger a silver coin.
This time, the messenger refused: "Old madam, although I also want to accept it, but... Mr. Guo is in trouble this time, so you should keep the money and take care of it."
"What?" The expression on Zixing's face suddenly froze, and she asked hurriedly: "You...you said my Nian'er is in trouble? What's going on?"
"Alas, you may not know yet." The messenger smiled bitterly and said: "Master Guo was impeached by hundreds of officials in Youzhou, saying that he was embezzling and accepting bribes, and had liaisons with foreigners, and killed our Wu officials. Now he has been ordered to be dismissed by the monarch, and
Press him to the capital and wait for him to be punished. He may...at least lose his official position and be imprisoned, or at worst his life may not be saved."
After saying this, the messenger turned and rode away.
Zi Xing held the letter in her hand and was completely dumbfounded.
Without doubting his presence, she hurriedly opened Guo Nian's letter.
There was not much content in the letter. It just explained some recent events and informed Guo Yi that he would not return during the Mid-Autumn Festival and would continue to stay in Youzhou. Guo Nian did not mention a word in his heart about what the messenger said.
Zi Xing hurriedly ran into the house.
"Husband, something terrible has happened." Zixing shouted.
In the study, Zixing told Guo Yi what the messenger said word for word.
Guo Yi didn't have much reaction.
After all, he is the Nine Heavens Emperor. Although he has become a mortal, his attitude and way of dealing with things have never changed in any way.
She has the aura of not bowing down even when the mountains are overwhelming, and not bowing when the waves are stormy!
After finishing speaking, Zixing asked anxiously: "Husband, are the words of the messenger true or false?"
"Then let me ask you, how do you treat him on weekdays?" Guo Yi asked.
"Of course it's very good. Every time he sends a letter, I will give him a silver coin." Zi Xing pursed her lips and said, "So, I don't think he has any reason to lie to me."
"That's it." Guo Yi sighed and said, "Everyone has a conscience, so his words are very credible."
"This!" Zi Xing suddenly became anxious and said: "Then... what should we do?"
"Let's do that." Guo Yi smiled and said, "I'll go to Liu's house tomorrow and ask Liu Yuanwai to find out what's going on."
"Okay!" Zi Xing nodded.
The Guo family and the Liu family have finally got married. Now that Guo Nian is in trouble, the Liu family will not sit idly by and ignore it.
Zi Xing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
only!
Guo Yi obviously underestimated the human heart and the attitude of some people in the face of such things.
When Guo Yi went to Liu's house, he was told by his servant that Liu was not at home, but had gone to the prince's house and has not returned yet.
I originally thought I could meet him if I came back in the evening.
But as soon as Guo Yi's front foot arrived home, Liu's servant Hou Ya followed him into the house.
Zi Xing came up to him with a look of astonishment.
"What, what's going on?" Zi Xing asked doubtfully.
The servants of the Liu family returned the betrothal gift and bride price intact.
The leading steward said: "Liu Yuanwai said that the Guo family is now unable to protect itself. Guo Nian has been put on death row by the monarch of the Wu Kingdom and will be interrogated at a later date. Therefore, we decided to unilaterally cancel the engagement. As for the Liu family and the Guo family, they have
The promised marriage fell through, and the Guo family will not come to the Liu family in the future."
"ah?!"
Zi Xing suddenly turned pale with fright.
Guo Yi was very calm, as if it was both unexpected and expected.
"Husband, what should we do?" Zixing hurriedly hugged Guo Yi.
Now, both of them have become mortals.
Although Zixing has martial arts power, the problem is that she alone cannot defeat hundreds or thousands of people.
Guo Yi's self-proclaimed cultivation level is even more powerless. If the seal is lifted, I am afraid that the eleven years of hard work as a mortal will be in vain. Unless it comes to a critical moment, Guo Yi will never break the seal. After all, this life is hard.
How easy is it to practice?
Every day I eat very little, meditate hard, and live a life like a wheel.
Let me ask, which cultivator can do this?
Not to mention ten years, even if it is one year, or even half a year, it cannot be done!
But Guo Yi did it. Not only did he do it, but he also completely integrated into this identity. He integrated into the identity of a mortal, and integrated into the identity of a father...
How can we just give up after these eleven years of hard training?
This is absolutely impossible.
At this time, the leading Liu family servant was about to leave.
"Wait!" Guo Yi stopped them in their tracks.
"What? Are you still planning to force us to stay?" The leading servant rolled up his sleeves, as if he was going to fight Guo Yi.
They did not take Guo Yi seriously at all, because in their view, Guo Yi was just a sick young man who could be blown down by a gust of wind.
"Keep you here? You're thinking too much." Guo Yi waved his hand.
"Then what do you mean?" The servant frowned.
"Go back and tell you, Mr. Liu, that it is not the Liu family's turn to break off the engagement, but my Guo family's turn to break off the engagement." Guo Yi sneered and said: "Take the things back. How can I take back the things my Guo family gave away?
reason?"
The leading servant was stunned for a moment.
He looked at the other person in astonishment, with a puzzled expression on his face: "You...you don't even want so much money?"
"Of course." Guo Yi chuckled and said, "Tomorrow, I will bring a letter of divorce and visit the Liu family to cancel the engagement in person."
Several people froze on the spot, motionless.
"Get out of here if you don't take your things with you!" Guo Yi roared angrily.
Several people were frightened by Guo Yi's momentum.
Although Guo Yi claims to be a cultivator, his accumulated momentum is never weaker than anyone else!
The servants of the Liu family hurriedly put their hands on their shoulders and ran away with a lot of things.
Zixing doesn't care about the money. The family's money can't be used up anyway. Besides, Zixing is not a person who cares about material comfort. In the past eleven years, she has been following Guo Yi and has lived a simple life, and her clothes are only coarse linen.
I rarely wear silk or satin.
Apart from Guo Yi, the only child in her heart was Guo Nian.
Now, Guo Nian has been arrested by Wu State, and the Liu family has come to break off the engagement. This is like a leak in the house and it rains all night.
"Husband, what should I do?" Zixing asked hurriedly.
"Madam, don't be anxious." Guo Yi gently comforted Zi Xing and said, "With your husband here, Nian'er will be fine."
