The steward is already waiting there: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, and the Marquis wants you to rest early."
Xu Qingan felt a little surprised that he was not asked to reprimand him.
"There's soup ready for you in the kitchen."
Xu Qingan didn't quite believe in life, so he stretched out his hand and pinched himself. It seemed that he was not dreaming.
His father really should treat him well.
After eating a full meal, he asked his servants to help him freshen up. Xu Qingan lay on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. He closed his eyes and said what he said.
Why did he suddenly become curious? There must be something fishy here. He must ask clearly tomorrow. Thinking like this, Xu Qing'an began to toss and turn on the bed. This night was destined to be a sleepless night.
…
There was a knock on the Zhang family door.
Chang Yue was quickly invited into the study.
Zhang Yuci already knew what happened at Fuqing Restaurant and was about to call his staff over for discussion. When he heard that Chang Yue was coming, he immediately got up and went to greet him.
"Mr. Chang," Zhang Yuci said, "What happened? Why were those people suddenly arrested?"
Chang Yue looked solemn: "I'm afraid I'm being targeted."
Zhang Yuci's heart suddenly trembled. Has anyone noticed it yet? Could it be that Xu Qinghuan again?
Zhang Yuci frowned. Sure enough, if one thing is not arranged well, troubles will follow one after another. The troubles laid from the beginning can no longer be covered up.
He has only done two wrong things in his life, and now they have become a disaster for the Zhang family.
When Anyihou was detained in the palace, he proposed to the late emperor that Mrs. Xu and Xu Qinghuan should be taken to the palace to threaten Anyihou.
An old man and a young child are the most touching people. If An Yihou has been stubborn and refused to agree, he will kill his eldest daughter and let him taste the pain. His thinking is considered thorough, and this blow is not too big or too small.
Little, it was just the right place to start. Looking at the little baby girl, he felt very pitiful, but she had a father like An Yihou.
At first, the child refused to open her mouth. He pinched her nose and made her cry loudly, then stuffed a pill into her mouth.
Anyihou was a weakling and quickly bowed his head in front of the late emperor. Mrs. Xu took Xu Qinghuan back to Anyihou's mansion and took poisonous pills. Unexpectedly, Xu Qinghuan survived.
Several times he met Xu Qinghuan in Prince Jian's mansion. He deliberately came up to talk to her. The pretty child was really cute. What he was most curious about was what would happen after taking the poison pill.
Due to the changes, Miss Xu was not poisoned to death, nor was she poisoned to death.
If Mrs. Xu hadn't been seeking medical advice for her granddaughter, and Miss Xu's health had not been very good, he would have suspected that someone had deliberately replaced the poison pill pills.
A few days ago, the Queen Mother intended to get the two families to get married. He would readily agree because he had the means to manipulate Xu Qinghuan.
He wants her to live so she can live. If he wants her to die, she will die quietly. The pills Xu Qinghuan took when she was a child are still there, as long as some poison is added to her food or utensils every day.
The pills gradually increased the toxicity in her body, and everyone would think that she died of a serious illness.
Zhang Yuci took back his thoughts. The second thing that he regretted all the time was the one in front of him. It had been so long ago that he had almost forgotten it.
It was exactly this incident that made the former emperor appoint the daughter of the Zhang family as his queen, and now someone wants to find out...
Zhang Yuci's eyes flashed fiercely, but she quickly returned to normal and looked at Chang Yue: "Will the woman tell you?"
Chang Yue shook her head: "I don't know either, but since Huijing is still in prison, she must not dare to act rashly."
"Plugging it out like this is not the way to go," Zhang Yuci said. "It seems that this matter needs to be resolved quickly, otherwise those people might really be able to find out the truth."
Once this incident occurs, the Zhang family and the Queen Mother will not be able to gain a foothold in Dazhou.
"Tell her not to act rashly again," Zhang Yuci said. "Tomorrow I will go to the palace to see the Queen Mother and report the matters outside the palace to the Queen Mother."
Chang Yue was still worried: "If they start with those Uszang people and find out that Huijing is from Uszang, they will most likely deal with Huijing immediately, and then they are afraid that those people will kill them all."
Zhang Yuci could naturally think of this, and his expression became more serious: "If something like this happens tonight, they must be suspicious..."
Chang Yue said: "Miss Xu is very powerful. Uncle Guo must be on guard against her."
Zhang Yuci calmly picked up the tea and drank it. Xu Qinghuan should have been thrown to death on the jade steps.
…
Morning at Anyihou Mansion.
An Yihou got up early and prepared to practice boxing and kicking in the yard. This was a good habit he had maintained for many years. Keeping fit, well, has many benefits.
He turned to look at the sleeping lady and walked towards the yard refreshed.
Just after taking two steps, a stone rolled under his feet. An Yihou turned his head and found Xu Qing'an in the corner, with a face as pale as a ghost and sunken eyes.
Marquis An Yi couldn't help being shocked. Last night, he was persuaded by his daughter to treat Qing'an well in the future. After all, Qing'an had made some progress recently, so he ordered the kitchen to leave a bowl of soup for Qing'an, waiting for the unscrupulous son.
After coming back, eat until your belly is full, then take a long nap to recuperate, and then continue to practice.
But I never expected that Shaoxianzi would become such a ghost, as if someone had sucked his energy.
"What are you doing?" An Yihou was a little disgusted.
"Dad," Xu Qing'an rushed forward, "I don't understand why you were so kind to me last night? I thought about it all night but couldn't figure out the reason."
Marquis Anyi was too lazy to talk to Xu Qingan.
"Dad, why on earth?" Xu Qing'an followed again.
The father and son walked all the way to the school grounds, and saw a figure walking through the school grounds from a distance, that was Song Chengxuan.
An Yihou walked up to him, and Song Chengxuan just finished the closing pose, which was the end of his morning practice.
"Master Hou." Song Chengxuan stepped forward and saluted.
"Okay, okay, okay." All An Yihou could say was this.
When Mr. Song left, Marquis Anyi went to pick up the long knife on the knife holder. The handle was still hot.
Xu Qing'an leaned over and said, "Dad, you seem to be late. It's just that you are not as good as others in fighting, and you are not as good as others in daily training. It seems that you are really old. You should stay at home and enjoy your old age. Otherwise, I will submit this memorial to you today.
Pass on the title of nobility to me, and you will accompany your grandmother to plant flowers and tend the vegetable garden."
Anyihou couldn't bear it anymore and kicked Xu Qing'an in the butt.
Xu Qingan covered his buttocks and suddenly felt a little sleepy. He was finally able to sleep peacefully.
…
Xu Qinghuan finished washing, opened the curtain and walked out of the house.
Yin Gui stepped forward and said, "Miss, Master Song is waiting for you in the study."
Now the entire Anyihou Mansion already knows that Mr. Song is the future uncle.
