Chapter 7 Engagement

Since Qin Yiming was arrested in the jail of the prefect, Daniu and Xiaohou have been anxious like ants on the hot pan, but they have no choice but to tell Yang Baihu the truth.

"What should we do? Yang Baihu, think of a way to save the eldest young master, for the sake of the master!" Daniu said anxiously.

Yang Baihu looked at the two people who were big and small, tall and short, and said angrily: "You two have been picked up by Master Qin since childhood and adopted them. If it weren't for Master Qin, you would have become dry bones on the roadside. Even though you knew that the government was arresting the eldest son, you still asked the eldest son to go out. Tell me, if something happened to the eldest son, what face would you have to comfort the master's spirit in heaven?"

"What? Master?" Xiaohou asked anxiously.

Yang Baihu lowered his head in discomfort, slowed down for a while, and said, "Our garrison has received news of the death of the master. In July of the seventh year of Chongzhen, the Qing army entered the Guanxi River to attack the Han Dynasty. When he returned to the army, he casually entered Datong territory and captured the Desheng Fort. The soldiers of the De'an garrison led by the master followed the general Li Quan, and the entire army was wiped out. The war ended two months ago. The news will be made public soon."

"Master! Damn slave thief, we want to avenge you!" Daniu and Xiaohou both knelt on the ground. They were the ones they had to repay for their whole lives, but this person was gone, but they felt that they had not contributed enough and were far from comparable to Master Qin's life-saving and raising grace, so they both cried in pain.

"Little monkey, we deserve to die. The master is gone, and we have not taken good care of the eldest master. We deserve to die. We are sorry to the master. If the eldest master has any problems, I will not live anymore. Woo woo!" Daniu thought that the master is gone, and the eldest master of his family was arrested. The more he thought about it, the more guilt he felt, the more he felt useless, and the more hated him.

The little monkey cried and nodded very hard. It could be seen that he felt guilty and uncomfortable.

Yang Baihu looked at the two of them. Although they did not do their duty and took good care of Mr. Qin, he could not continue to blame him for their loyalty. After all, he could not blame them all for this matter. After all, Yang Baihu said, "Hey, you two don't have to do this. Mr. Qin has been a thousand households in Anlu for decades. People with strong reputation in Anlu County will give Mr. Qin some face. I will go to find Lord Lei tomorrow. He had a close relationship with Mr. Qin before, and maybe he could have some help from him."

When the big bull and the little monkey heard that there was hope, they immediately stopped crying and looked at Yang Baihu pitifully, as if they had found a straw to save their lives.

"But what if Lord Lei doesn't help us? Now that damn stepmother and the wealthy businessman Liu family, they have to bite the eldest master to death! And the magistrate of our county is a new arrival." Xiaohou asked.

Yang Baihu frowned and looked suspicious. What Xiaohou said was quite reasonable. If Qin Yiming had accidentally beaten someone to death at home like Qin Yiming, if the head of the family had not revealed it, it would have been uncontrollable. He once wanted to go over and ask Mrs. Qin, but in the end he gave up.

"Hmph, the wealthy businessmen of the Liu family are not afraid of. They are just local wealthy families. At that time, Mrs. Qin also valued their family's money, so she asked the second young master to marry Mrs. Liu. If the Liu family dared to mess around, I would not deal with them. It's just that Mrs. Qin is not easy to deal with. After all, she is also Mr. Qin's pillow!" Yang Baihu said worriedly.

Daniu and Xiaohou grew up with Qin Yiming since childhood. They only had Qin Yiming in their eyes, but not Mrs. Qin. Xiaohou said, "Hmph, it was the evil woman who bit the eldest son and refused to let go of the eldest son because of the position of hereditary master. It's really hateful! It's a coincidence that the eldest son accidentally killed Miss Liu at this time. Moreover, our eldest son still couldn't remember the past. I can't say what else is inside the matter!"

Yang Baihu also felt that it was very strange, but he couldn't find any evidence. The more he felt irritated, he slapped the table and said fiercely: "Hmph, what are you afraid of? Master Qin is kind to me. Master Qin has been taught since I was a child. I will never watch Master Qin beheaded. At worst, I will take people to the prison to rescue the master and hide in the mountains with him!"

In Xu Mansion.

A pink beauty,

He was dressed gorgeously, with big eyes under his willow eyebrows, which were deep and smart. His white and red face seemed to be able to break. His thin red lips made people look forward to its squirming, but it didn't move.

Crying, a girl pushed the door through the door. These two people were no one else, but the two people dressed as men.

"Xiao Yue'er, have the people in our Qin Mansion checked it out? But what news?" Xu Zhen'er, who had originally stretched out her eyebrows suddenly frowned. When she saw Xiao Yue'er coming in, she asked.

Xiao Yue'er was very nervous when she saw the news of her own lady, so she deliberately said, "Well, I found it clearly. Oh, Miss, I rarely see the lady being so concerned about her. It seems that the master and Mr. Qin are both very visionary, so they will make you both."

"Don't talk nonsense. Yue'er, you are getting older and younger. Let me see how I punish you later! Tell me quickly, Qin Yiming really beat the little lady of the Liu family to death?" Xu Zhen'er ordered directly as her master and went straight to the point.

Xiao Yue'er knew that her lady said she wanted to punish her, but she would not really punish her. The master and servant grew up together. Xu Zhen'er always treated herself as her own sister. Even if she made some small mistakes, the lady never asked her. But she pretended to be very scared and said, "Oh, Miss, Yue'er was afraid. The lady promised not to punish Yue'er. Yue'er could tell her!" Xiao Yue'er pretended for a while, and she couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, okay, tell me quickly, what's going on?" Xu Zhen'er became serious.

Xiao Yue'er said: "According to our people in the Qin Mansion, all this is Mrs. Qin's conspiracy. On that day, Mrs. Qin deliberately let someone get Master Qin drunk, and then asked Mrs. Liu to insult Mrs. Qin. Master Qin was drunk and angry and pushed Mrs. Liu, and just hit Mrs. Liu on the corner of the table. The vicious Mrs. Qin did not ask for a doctor. Knowing that Mrs. Liu was dying and was powerless to make a comeback, he invited the doctor and also invited people from the Liu family to the Qin Mansion. When the Liu family saw that his daughter died tragically, he thought it was Mrs. Qin who was killed by Mrs. Qin and vowed to avenge his daughter! The most hateful thing is that in order not to give Mrs. Qin the chance to overturn the case, Mrs. Qin deliberately arranged a maid she trusted most to wait outside the house for eavesdropping. Now this maid is the most powerful witness in this case."

"So that's it, such a vicious woman! There must be a reason for things, but why did she arrange all this?" Xu Zhen'er asked.

Xiao Yue'er continued: "Mrs. Qin learned through relationship that the Qin family had died in battle. According to our Ming system, the eldest son of the Qin family can inherit the official positions of thousands of households. If the eldest son breaks the law or is gone, the second son can be inherited. So Mrs. Qin arranged such a play!"

Xu Zhen'er has always looked down on those officers and soldiers, and she was even more disdainful of Mrs. Qin's purpose and sneered: "Hmph, that's it, ignorant woman. Don't she know that the current situation is turbulent and wars are everywhere? What's the point of being a thousand households? It's either to harm the people or to die, but Mrs. Qin's methods are so clever! There is no flaw at all!"

Xiao Yue'er nodded and agreed. Xu Zhen'er was sitting in a daze, and Xiao Yue'er didn't dare to disturb her. Since the master passed away two years ago, the huge Xu family has been all the ladies of their own family. The person who looked weak in front of him was supporting him. After a long time, Xiao Yue'er quietly popped up a few words from her mouth.

"Miss, do we want to save Master Qin?"

"What to save? Let the people in the Qin Mansion come out to testify? Do you know the consequences? My father sent people in Anlu and secretly. If the people in the Qin Mansion are exposed, then other families will know how our Xu family will stay in Anlu County? And even if that person comes out to testify, others may not believe it!" Xu Zhen'er's words were not only for Xiaoyue'er, but also for warning herself.

Xiao Yue'er changed her words and said, "Miss, no matter how young Master Qin is, she doesn't like him anyway. If he really judges the law, he will lose his worries at that time. Could it be that the lady really let her fulfill the engagement arranged by Qin Qianhu and the master?"

"What Qin Qianhu valued was only the money of our Xu family, and what my father valued was only the status of Mr. Qin in Anlu County." Xu Zhen'er murmured, thinking from time to time about Qin Yiming's words, "Ning
