Yang Zijin nodded and sat down beside Mu Yunong.

At this time, Mu Yunong looked at Yang Zijin and smiled. Then she put the dish in front of her into Yang Zijin's bowl. "Sister, this is my favorite food. It tastes good. Sister, try it."

Yang Zijin nodded to Mu Yunong and lowered her head to eat.

For Yang Zijin, Mu Yunong had been spoiled when she was a child, and the concubines in the mansion didn't have a baby. Naturally, she would not have tricks. It was normal for her to be used by Qiao Shu.

Since the last incident, it was estimated that she had been scared a lot, so she didn't have to worry that Mu Yunong would make trouble for her again in the future.

After lunch, Duke of Mu asked Yang Zijin to stay.

After everyone left, Yang Zijin asked, "What's the matter, dad?"

"Qingcheng, after today's meeting, His Majesty mentioned your marriage to Shuo Ling." Duke of Mu said.

Yang Zijin frowned slightly after hearing that, "What do you think, dad?"

"The last time you got married to Shuo Ling, something unexpected happened, which made me very worried. Now His Majesty said this to me. Naturally, I think that the sooner you marry Shuo Ling, the better it is." Duke of Mu said.

Although Duke of Mu didn't say that thing clearly, Yang Zijin could understand. The ancient people had some taboos on the marriage between two families. Although there is a reason for the incident on that day, it was inevitable that some people would gossip in private.

What Yang Zijin didn't know was that Duke of Mu appreciated Shuo Ling because he had dealt with the disaster of Jiandu perfectly. Although he was not very satisfied with him before and thought that Qingcheng would be wronged if she married him. Now, Duke of Mu had completely changed his view on Shuo Ling. Naturally, the person who could seek happiness for the people would not be that bad.

Yang Zijin nodded and said, "Everything is up to you, dad."

"I thought that you would have an opinion. In this case, the date of the wedding is set in three days." Duke of Mu looked at Yang Zijin and said with a smile.

She had made an agreement with Shuo Ling earlier, so she was not very surprised. What made Yang Zijin puzzled was why Chushi Youtian was so interested in this matter. It confused her.

However, when Yang Zijin talked to Shuo Ling after the wedding, she knew Chushi Youtian's purpose. It turned out that on the day of the marriage, he could take the opportunity to investigate the mansion of Marquis.

Then Duke of Mu said to Yang Zijin with a smile, "Qingcheng, don't worry. I will let you get married honorably!"

Yang Zijin nodded with a smile. Then she slightly saluted, "Thank you, dad."

Then they talked for a while and then went back.

After Yang Zijin came back, she lay on the bed. After a busy morning, she was tired. She felt comfortable lying on the bed

Unconsciously, she fell asleep in bed.

In the mansion of Marquis

At this time, Zhou Ji came back from the outside, "My Lord."

"What's the matter? Shouldn't you be watching Qiao Shu now?" Shuo Ling put down his book and looked at Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji then said, "My Lord, Miss Qiao is at home now and has never been out of the house. I suddenly think of something and I think it is necessary to tell My Lord about it."

"Say it." Shuo Ling frowned a little and then asked.

Zhou Ji then said, "My Lord. Before My Lord came back, sure enough, someone visited the mansion at night."

"That's what we expected." Shuo Ling picked up the book and said.

Zhou Ji then said, "My Lord, also, on the night, Sijin Bank in Jing City was also burgled."

"Sijin Bank was also burgled? What's the loss?" After hearing this, Shuo Ling frowned and his eyes were cold.

Who dared to have designs on his bank? Did he want to die?

Zhou Ji returned at this time, "My Lord, the person only stole a book."

"A book?" Shuo Ling couldn't help being surprised.

Then he sneered, "I see!"

No wonder Chushi Youtian asked him this in the court yesterday. It turned out to be like this.

It seemed that Chushi Youtian's suspicion was growing.

Thinking of this, Shuo Ling then said to Zhou Ji, "You should keep your eyes on Qiao Shu. If there is any news, report it to me immediately."

"Yes." Zhou Ji answered, and then he walked out of the room.

At this time, Shuo Ling casually played with the cup in his hand. His eyes were getting colder.

According to the time of Chushi Youtian's Imperial Edict, Empress Dowager may not have time to tell him about his marriage with Yang Zijin.

The reason why Chushi Youtian took the initiative to make an order must be that he was suspicious of him. It seemed that the explanation given in the court did not dispel Chushi Youtian's suspicion of him.

Presumably, when he was away, Chushi Youtian ordered people to his mansion to investigate secretly. But there was no result. He still didn't give up on this. So, he wanted to take advantage of his marriage with Yang Zijin to let people come into his mansion secretly and investigate again.

Thinking about this, looking at the teacup in his hand, Shuo Ling couldn't help but snort coldly. It was a wonderful strategy.

But this Chushi Youtian looked down on him.

At this time, Shuo Ling called Mo Li in.

"My Lord, what can I do for you?" Mo Li asked, saluting.

Shuo Ling said, "Everything in the mansion will remain as usual for the time being, and it will be adjusted after the wedding."

"Yes, My Lord." Mo Li replied, nodding his head.

Shuo Ling said again, "You go to buy what we need on the wedding day."

Mo Li answered and went out.

After Mo Li left, Shuo Ling's eyes were slightly deep. Although he knew that Chushi Youtian had another purpose for their marriage at this time, he didn't care. As long as he could marry Yang Zijin, he could deal with everything.

In the countryside outside the city

At this time, Lin Mei had already arrived outside the yard where Madam Yang lived.

After Lin Mei got out of the carriage, through the low courtyard wall, she saw a herd of chickens and ducks in the courtyard. In the vegetable field, some fruits had already been ripe.

Madam Yang was sitting at a stone table in the courtyard, having dinner with Qixi.

Lin Mei couldn't help feeling that this kind of rural life was very comfortable. However, she probably couldn't have the chance to enjoy this.

So, she pushed the courtyard door open and said, "Oh, Madam Yang is really lucky. You have a good life."

"Why are you here?" When Madam Yang heard the voice, she looked up and saw Lin Mei, and then she said.

They were deadly enemies. They had to quarrel with each other as soon as they met.

Today was no exception!

"Naturally, I came to see if you are good. If not, I'll be relieved. I didn't expect you to have a good life." With that, Lin Mei also sat at the table.

Then she said to Qixi, "Go. Get me a pair of chopsticks. I'm starving to death."

Qixi nodded and went to the kitchen.

Although Madam Yang always quarreled with Lin Mei, Qixi knew that their relationship was OK.

"Why did you come to see me today?" Then Madam Yang asked.

Lin Mei looked at Madam Yang and said, "I don't want to come to you. It's your precious daughter..."

As soon as Lin Mei mentioned Yang Zijin, Madam Yang couldn't help putting down her chopsticks. Before Lin Mei finished, she interrupted and asked, "What's wrong with Zijin?"

"Nothing. Now she came back from Jiandu, saying that she misses you. She asked me to take you to Moonlight. She will come to see you when she is free." Lin Mei said and rolled her eyes at Madam Yang.

After hearing this, Madam Yang was relieved. Previously, she missed Yang Zijin and asked Qixi to take her to the Blossoming Peach. However, Yang Zijin had already gone to Jiandu at that time.

At that time, Madam Yang also heard a little about the flood in Jiandu. When she heard that Yang Zijin went to Jiandu, she couldn't help worrying.

As a girl, how could she endure that hardship? And after the disaster, the plague would also come.

Now hearing Lin Mei say that Yang Zijin had come back, she was fully relieved.

Then Madam Yang got up quickly, looking at Lin Mei with a smile and saying, "Let's go now."

Lin Mei gave Madam Yang a contemptuous look and said, "You are full, but I am still hungry."

At this time, Qixi just came over with the tableware. Lin Mei took them and began to eat, ignoring Madam Yang.

Madam Yang was excited at this time and urged Lin Mei, "Madam Lin, how can you eat so slowly? Eat quickly."

Lin Mei felt speechless at this time.

As soon as Lin Mei put down the bowl, Madam Yang quickly pulled her up and said, "Hurry up. Let's go quickly."

It was more like dragging her.

Lin Mei hadn't swallowed the food in her mouth completely at this time, but she had been dragged to the door by Madam Yang.

Seeing this, Qixi couldn't help being confused. What happened during the time he went to fill a bowl with rice?

At this time, Madam Yang had already pushed Lin Mei into the carriage, and then she also got into the carriage.

Before leaving, she didn't forget to tell Qixi through the window of the carriage. "I go to Jing City with Madam Lin. I'll come back in two days. You should feed the chickens and ducks for me."

"I see." After hearing this, Qixi shook his head. Then he sat down and continued to eat.

At this time, the carriage had already headed for Jing City.

Inside the carriage, Madam Yang looked at Lin Mei excitedly and asked her some questions.

As it was getting dark, Yang Zijin was woken up by Lan and went to have dinner.

After dinner, Yang Zijin came out, and Mu Yunong followed her.

"Sister, sister, please wait a moment." Mu Yunong was yelling behind her at this moment.

After hearing this, Yang Zijin frowned slightly. She stopped and turned her head, "What's the matter?"

"Sister, I heard from dad that you will get married after three days." Mu Yunong walked quickly and went to Yang Zijin, asking.

Yang Zijin nodded and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Congratulations, sister." Mu Yunong leaned slightly forward and said.

At this time, Yang Zijin also said with a smile, "Thank you."

Then she was ready to turn around and left.

"Sister..." At this time, Mu Yunong called Yang Zijin again, with an expression of hesitation.

Yang Zijin frowned at this moment, "What else?"

"Sister, it was me that made trouble for you before. But sister, I won't do that again." Mu Yunong said at this time.
