Prince Sui was not a magnanimous man.
Originally, Cui Xingzhou went to the Northwest to fill the hole of the Great Yan Dynasty. It doesn’t have much to do with him, but Cui Xingzhou’s blocking people’s way of wealth should really be ruined.
How can such a royal dignitary as Prince Sui tolerate such a tone?
But more importantly, if the merchants he arranged were in the hands of Prince Huaiyang, then the deadly evidence of his adultery with the barbarians, Shanyu, would also fall into the hands of Prince Huaiyang.
At present, the Grandma-Empress and the Empress Dowager are fighting fiercely. If Prince Huaiyang handed over his deadly evidence, there was no reason why the demon Empress Wu would not use it. At that time, wouldn’t he, Liu Pei, only be beaten passively?
Even if he can finally escape, he will also lose the reputation of virtue, courtesy, and filial piety that he has accumulated hard.
Currently, Prince Sui decided to find out what is Cui Xingzhou’s intention.
However, in the Imperial Court, he has to arrange for his subordinates to watch closely.
He must not let Cui Xingzhou’s impeachment note go to The Emperor.
In addition… Those who know that he runs the iron ore business in private can’t be kept either! It is said that the businessman who was contacting with the Mountain of Yang escaped from the assassins he sent. These individuals know the inside story of how he bribed Agufan.
It seems that he needs to send more people to root out the weeds!
In fact, Prince Sui was too worried. Cui Xingzhou worked hard to grasp the wolf tail of Prince Sui. How could he be willing to use it easily?
The untimely supply of army provisions in the Northwest has always been a major problem. If Prince Sui had helped him to meditate up and down, the rice in the pot of the Northwest army would be much sweeter.
So Cui Xingzhou was not in a hurry. He just stood still and let the b*stard, Prince Sui get angry.
He is also busy day and night at present… In recent days, spring in the Northwest has finally arrived late. It was a marvelous and romantic scenery night on the street.
At this time, when people were to go out of the street, the grass and flowers are all over the street. It is just when spring is brewing.
It’s a pity that Miantang got up very late these days, which has the means of a little late in spring.
Although the sun has risen for a long time, the master’s room in the courtyard of a small town in the Northwest is still closed, and no one can get up to call for water.
After a while, she stretched out her thin snow-white arm from the closed curtain and fumbled for the blouse hanging on the chair beside her.
But soon, a strong hand wrapped it and pulled her back.
Since Miantang went to the hot spring, she has been pestered by her husband for consecutive three days.
At this time, she thought of the words that Doctor Zhao told her, “be careful with drugs” and regretted it too much.
Who would have thought that it was just a medicinal wine for nourishing the kidney, could make her husband forget about tiredness that he seemed to have changed his entire vibe?
Miantang didn’t even remember her wedding days, so she didn’t know if her husband’s vibe is due to being nourished too much. But she was sure that her small physical strength could not keep up with her husband.
So when her husband wanted to come another round, she repeatedly asked for mercy and said, “The shop has not been opened for several days, Husband. I must take care of it… Should you also need to go back to the Jinjia Checkpoint?”
Cui Xingzhou’s insomnia has been greatly alleviated these days. He got up this morning in good spirits. Just as he wanted to take advantage of the aftertaste of the satisfaction last night to rush to the top of the waves again, he heard the young lady’s words of rushing him away like this, and his eyes were slightly heavy, “Why? You want to chase me away?”
Miantang lay on his chest, pursed her lips slightly, and said, “Who chased you? But I’m afraid you’ll delay your work… Do you think I should prepare another pair of medicine to calm your inflammation for you?…”
Prince Huaiyang raised his eyebrows and said succinctly, “You are not allowed to dispense prescriptions to anyone in the future!”
These days, he had been too addicted to the gentleness in the countryside. Cui Xingzhou decided to return to the Jinjia Checkpoint after breakfast.
And Miantang felt that her waist was going to break after a few days of absurdity with her husband.
Although her husband is usually gentle and deep. But in the dim light, such a refined man in the closed curtain is like a caged animal…
Thinking of this, Miantang’s heart warmed up and her cheeks immediately turned pink.
Bi Cao is putting rouge on Lady Liu, and can’t help praising her, “Madam, your skin is indeed good. You don’t have to put on any rouge to have nourished skin in white and red.”
At that moment, Cui Xingzhou came over, looked at Miantang’s combed her beautiful long black hair, and randomly selected a sparrow hairpin from the makeup box, “I bought it for you. How about wearing it today?”
Miantang nodded with a smile, half bowed her head, and asked Cui Jiu to put on the hairpin for her.
After Miantang washed and dressed up, she went out with two little servant girls. Cui Jiu also rode out with Mo Ru and some bodyguards.
Her husband said that he had accumulated countless mundane affairs in recent days and would come back in two days. Miantang thought about going to the medicine store today to meet some suppliers and buy some goods.
Maybe it’s because she can’t open the shop these days. When she gets to the medicine shop and opens the door panel not long after, the customers who come to grab the medicine come in an endless stream.
The staff in the shop were busy for a while, and Miantang did not have time to care about buying any goods. She just stayed at the counter to collect money.
Just when there were crowds in the medicine shop, a man with a hood came in. After he asked the shop assistant for some medicine to treat trauma and stop bleeding, he came to Miantang to deliver the medicine money.
But in the money he handed in, there was still a note.
Miantang frowned and unfolded. There was only a line of small words on it, “I’m your uncle. I can’t see you personally when I’m in trouble today. There are many officers and soldiers around. Don’t make any noise. Come to the West gate in the afternoon. Remember not to bring outsiders along!”
Miantang looked up and saw the man pull down his scarf and show his face.
She knows that face too well! It’s Uncle Liu Kun, one of the escorts of her grandfather’s family!
When she was a little girl, whenever she went to her grandfather’s house, Uncle Liu accompanied her to buy candied haws in the street.
If it wasn’t for the note, Miantang would have cried out.
However, Liu Kun’s eyes were delivered in time. He winked and reminded Miantang not to say anything. He then picked up his medicine bag and left.
At that moment, Fan Hu came over, looked back at Liu Kun’s distant figure, and asked, “What’s wrong, Madam?”
Miantang just lower her head to sort the money out and said calmly, “It’s nothing, go and get busy!”
So Fan Hu went to sweep the floor.
But Miantang’s heart is about to boil. The handwriting on that note was her Uncle Lu Xian’s.
His handwriting is well written. In the beginning, her mother told her to learn to write from her uncle.
Miantang was very excited to get the information from his grandfather’s family. But under such circumstances, she’s more worried.
Why didn’t her uncle come to see her in person? Why did she solemnly warn in the note that she was not allowed to take outsiders along?
What happened to Uncle Lu Xian?
Miantang thought for a while and thought that her uncle must have met with some difficulties.
When she heard this, she took some cash out of the cash box. Wrapped a small package, and then prepared to sneak out at noon when the others were not paying attention.
However, when she was about to go out, she found that she could not shake off those guys.
Whether it was her excuse to stand outside the door or to choose colored thread from a sewing shop across the street, Fan Hu always led people behind her.
Miantang was angry for a moment and frowned, “You can take some of your brothers to have a drink at noon, Brother Fan. Don’t always follow me!”
She then took out a silver ingot and gave it to Fan Hu and his brothers.
Fan Hu and the men looked at each other and tacitly turned to take the silver and left.
Miantang was relieved and turned along the stone road leading to the West gate and went out of the West gate of the Wuning Checkpoint.
Outside the West gate, there is a peach blossom forest. Miantang walks a little and saw Liu Kun.
He looked warily at Miantang’s back and confirmed that no one was following her. He whispered to Miantang, “The Elder Master is seriously injured. He has a fever these days. Please follow me to see him…”
Miantang had a lot to ask, so she got on the carriage with Liu Kun and hurried to the shabby temple.
After getting off the carriage, Miantang couldn’t help but cry when she saw her uncle who was so thin that he lost his appearance.
It’s just that she hasn’t seen him for several years. How can her rich uncle be so thin in her memory?
But her uncle was more shocked than her. He just struggled to get up and said with trembling lips, “Miantang… Child, you are still alive. Why don’t you contact us earlier? My father and I were both hurt and fell seriously ill for you…”
Miantang was a little surprised by her uncle’s words for a moment, and only blinked and said, “I’m fine in my husband’s house. Although I was sick earlier… I didn’t die. What do you mean, Uncle?”
All the people in the shabby temple were shocked, Husband? Where exactly did Liu Miantang come from?
The uncle and niece, whom they haven’t seen for many years, are in constant confusion on both sides.
When Lu Xian heard that his niece had lost her memory and had to be taken care of by her husband Cui Jiu, he was so anxious that he patted his thigh and said, “When did you marry Cui Jiu? Don’t you remember? When you were on the way, you contacted your Second Uncle, Lu Mu, and asked him to take you away as a robber!”
Miantang’s body was a little stiff, and she stared at him in disbelief. Her voice trembled and said, “No… it’s impossible. My husband is so good. How can I think of running away from marriage?”
Lu Xian shook his head reluctantly and said, “What’s so good? Didn’t you run away from your marriage because you saw Cui Jiu who came out of the city to meet you and disliked his fat head, big ears, and disgusting face?”
Miantang’s expression was still frozen and he said, “It’s impossible, Uncle. His appearance is… Wonderful…”
Liu Kun, who was on the other side, understood and was so anxious that he patted his thigh and said, “Why don’t you understand, Lady? You… You have met a villain who cheated you for bed!”
Miantang suddenly stood up, shook her head, and said intuitively, “No, my husband… He’s not like that!”
For a while, many doubts flooded her mind.
At first, he treated her politely, alienated and indifferent, and he always refused to come home… For a moment, Miantang’s brain burst. Standing in this shabby temple, she seemed to have a fantastic dream. She even closed her eyes and tightly squeezed her palm with her fingernails, hoping that this dream would wake up soon…
But at this time, there was a noisy voice outside the shabby temple. In the gradually dark night, the shabby temple was surrounded by officers and soldiers.
In a blaze of fire, a tall man wrapped in a black cape led the officers and soldiers, who appeared at the shabby temple with a grim expression.
Miantang slowly turned back and looked back at him with a wooden expression.
He is still the same as usual, with an unspeakable noble spirit between his eyebrows, a thin nose and lips, and a righteous aura without anger…
How can such a man be the son of a businessman? How could it be… Her husband Cui Jiu?
For a moment, Miantang couldn’t think of anything in her heart. She just thought quietly. This morning, when her husband combed her hair, he gently asked her if she wanted to wear the hairpin he bought for her. She looked back at him with a smile, then lowered her head and asked him to put the hairpin of sparrow embroidery in her bun…
Cui Xingzhou waved his hand and the soldiers who filed in surrounded the people in the shabby temple. After receiving the news from Fan Hu today, he came with his people.
In fact, he stayed outside the shabby temple for a long time, so long that he knew that Miantang’s Uncle Lu Xian was in the shabby temple. He also guessed that Lu Xian told Miantang that he was not her husband Cui Jiu.
He stepped out of his long legs, walked steadily to Miantang’s side, and reached out to pull her hand, but Miantang quickly pulled out the hairpin on her head and stabbed it straight at him at the moment he entered his arms.
If her hand had not been hurt, she might still have had a chance to hit. But Prince Huaiyang had long known that she loved to stab people with hairpins, so he held her hand tightly, then looked deeply into her eyes and said coldly, “Are you going to kill me?”
Miantang stared with her eyes widely opened and said to him, “Who… Who are you?”
Liu Kun had seen Cui Xingzhou before, but he could not see his face clearly when he was wearing a cape with a hat. Liu Kun only saw his approximate figure. Now the torch is bright, and he can see the villain’s face clearly.
To be honest, his appearance is really impeccable. Even Liu Kun, who has seen a lot, has to admit that he is a rare beautiful man.
But since he is not bad looking and should not lack women, why should he coax Liu Miantang into deceiving her into being his wife?
Thinking of this, Liu Kun came forward and wanted to save the young lady.
Liu Kun has good skills. He is the number one escort in the Shenwei escort agency. But in front of Cui Xingzhou, his cold moves seem to have become fancy fists and embroidered legs.
Seeing Cui Xingzhou standing still and turning his wrist with one hand, he easily defused Liu Kun’s attack and hit the acupoint on his arm with a flick of his backhand.
Liu Kun felt a shock in his entire arm, which hurt him so much that he stopped, lost his balance, and stepped a few steps back. The escort agency was supported by two other escorts.
Cui Xingzhou didn’t look at anyone else from beginning to end. He just squinted at Liu Miantang he was holding.
Just now she wanted to attack him! Thinking of this, the towering anger covered up the slight discomfort when his identity was exposed.
However, Miantang’s incomprehension and anger at this time had reached the peak.
At that moment, she thought a lot. No matter what, it is an indisputable fact that he lied to her, and he knew that she didn’t marry her, but he still does… That!
As Uncle Liu said, he is a shameless villain and a thief who deceives women for bed!
At this moment, Liu Kun also shouted, “Let go of our young lady quickly. We are the men you are chasing all the way. What is it got to do with her, a weak woman? If you are capable, why don’t you come at us instead?”
Miantang’s pupil contracted slightly.
Yes, what is he leading these people for? Did… he come with a large number of officers and soldiers to arrest her Big Uncle and Uncle Liu?
Considering that her uncle had said that someone had been chasing them and that her uncle was seriously injured, she raised her hand and gave Cui Xingzhou a hard slap in the face.
Cui Xingzhou can actually evade. However, he did not evade but received the blow. His face was slightly deflected, but he was still expressionless.
Miantang exerted too much force, and the whole person trembled slightly with anger. She continued to ask, “What are you doing? Are you coming to catch my uncle?”
Mo Ru, who was on the other side, couldn’t help but defend his Master: “If it weren’t for our Master’s timely arrival, you guys would have been made dumplings in the shabby temple. Instead of being grateful, you punched our Master and attacked him. It’s a group of people who don’t know how to appreciate it!”
Speaking of this, several soldiers dragged several people into the shabby temple.
All of them were wounded, and they were well grounded.
Liu Kun flashed his eyes and said, “Aren’t they the ones who chased us all the way?”! Among them, the man with the scarred face is the one who seriously wounded their Eldest Master!
Mo Ru continued to say to Miantang with righteous indignation, “Madam, our Master heard that you left the city alone. He was afraid that you might have an accident. So he hurried to bring people here. In addition to the few who are surrounding the shabby temple, there are more than a dozen in the wild forest outside. If we don’t come, how can you people, who are old, weak, sick, and disabled, fight against those people?”
Lu Xian has a high fever, and because he has lost a lot of blood, he is not strong enough. But he has a very sharp eye for people.
Although they have just heard that Miantang, who was injured and lost her memory, was cheated into marriage, he was very angry. But now looking at the man who pretends to be Cui Jiu. His appearance is extraordinary. He shouldn’t be that kind of swindler!
His move to repel Liu Kun just now is neat and clear, which shows that he has a deep foundation of skills.
To be honest, just looking at his skills, he is better than Miantang’s fat pig merchant assigned husband who was arranged by her wicked father.
He’s a good match for his niece.
No wonder Miantang didn’t believe her husband was fake just now. A man like him… Will be robbed by girls wherever it is placed.
Most importantly, Miantang has been missing for almost two years. She must have become a real couple with that fake Cui Jiu.
Although Lu Xian is angry that this guy cheated on their daughter of the Lu family, from the perspective of the elders, the first consideration is the reputation and lifelong happiness of the daughter.
So Lu Xian repressed his anger and reluctantly got up to say thanks to the fake Cui Jiu politely, which was to save face for each other. After he asked for the inner reason, he can then make plans. If he really loves Miantang and he is not a great evil person, he must always leave some opportunities for each other.
But there is one thing. If this kid with full amour bullies his Miantang, he will risk his life and fight with this kid!
Finally, there is a man who can speak logically in this shabby temple. Master Cui Xingzhou finally took back his fierce eyes and said to Miantang coldly, “I don’t know who you are, this seriously injured gentleman. His injury is too serious. He needs to be treated in time. Even if you want to question me, you have to push back and send him back to the city for treatment first.”
Miantang knew that what he said was reasonable, so she just struggled to free her hand and went back to help his uncle out of the shabby temple.
Just now, for a moment, she really misunderstood Cui Xingzhou and thought he was going to be bad for her uncle.
However, she could not find an excuse to forgive Cui Jiu for pretending to be her husband, so she had to send her uncle to the doctor first. She wanted to be alone and recall her absurd two-year life.
After a large number of people arrived at the Jinjia Checkpoint, the military doctor rushed to the account to treat Uncle Lu.
Cui Xingzhou sat on one side and asked those people why they wanted to chase them.
After drinking the antipyretic Decoction prescribed by the doctor, Lu Xian’s mind cleared up for a moment. Facing Cui Xingzhou’s question, he avoided answering it and only asked who he was.
Cui Xingzhou looked at Miantang, who had always turned her back on him, and said succinctly, “I am the official of the Imperial Court who investigates the matters of the Mountain of Yang. What exactly is your relationship with the Mountain of Yang?”
He didn’t reveal his identity as Prince Huaiyang. He didn’t say it for the time being because his soldiers fought with the Mountain of Yangshan to death, so as not to scare them. By letting them know that they are officials, and at the same time, simply pointing out their key points, which also saves them from trying to deceive.
Lu Xian knows that he is an official, and this Jinjia Checkpoint is not accessible to ordinary people. The soldiers around him are respectful to him. It seems that his official position is not small.
At that moment, he vaguely understood the reason why he lied to Miantang, and then he said, “Did you want to use her as bait to catch the followers of the Mountain of Yang when you lied to Miantang?”
Miantang’s hand bandaging his uncle’s wound was slightly stiff and even trembled when she heard this.
Cui Xingzhou has been staring at Miantang’s back and naturally saw her trembling. He took a deep breath, “I rescued her from the water unintentionally. At that time, she was seriously injured and her tendons were cut off. I found someone to treat her. Unexpectedly, she lost all her memory and mistakenly thought I was Cui Jiu… My last name is Cui and I am the ninth in the family. I didn’t mean to deceive her…”
Lu Xian listened to Miantang’s original situation. His eyes were round and his lips trembled with pain. “You said she… Was she seriously injured in the water?”
In fact, Cui Jiu also wanted to know the secret of this drowning. So he said, “Mr. Lu, you’d better tell me what you know. It’s good for you and Miantang. If there’s anything big, I’ll help you look at Miantang’s sake.”
Lu Xian had long been dissatisfied with the Mountain of Yang’s gang of people of the old East Palace, but Miantang was deeply in love with Master Ziyu.
He thought that he had secretly sent people to the Mountain of Yang to find Miantang’s whereabouts, but he got the news that Miantang was framed by Yunniang, chased and killed, seriously injured, and fell into the water and died.
In this way, it is consistent with the situation of Miantang who was rescued by Cui Jiu.
In Lu Xian’s view, Miantang and Ziyu are a bad relationship. Whether that Royal descendant will be rich and noble or end up dead has nothing to do with Miantang of his family!
Since Miantang fell into the water and lost her memory because of him, it is a gift from heaven.
She had forgotten her relationship with Ziyu and her experience with the Mountain of Yang. Such days are not what a boudoir woman should experience!
Thinking of this, Lu Xian decided to hide the past of Miantang as the leader of the Mountain of Yang, “Lu Wen”, and never let others know!
The rest will be borne by her uncle!
Prince Sui was not a magnanimous man.
Originally, Cui Xingzhou went to the Northwest to fill the hole of the Great Yan Dynasty. It doesn’t have much to do with him, but Cui Xingzhou’s blocking people’s way of wealth should really be ruined.
How can such a royal dignitary as Prince Sui tolerate such a tone?
But more importantly, if the merchants he arranged were in the hands of Prince Huaiyang, then the deadly evidence of his adultery with the barbarians, Shanyu, would also fall into the hands of Prince Huaiyang.

After getting off the carriage, Miantang couldn’t help but cry when she saw her uncle who was so thin that he lost his appearance.
It’s just that she hasn’t seen him for several years. How can her rich uncle be so thin in her memory?
But her uncle was more shocked than her. He just struggled to get up and said with trembling lips, “Miantang… Child, you are still alive. Why don’t you contact us earlier? My father and I were both hurt and fell seriously ill for you…”
Miantang was a little surprised by her uncle’s words for a moment, and only blinked and said, “I’m fine in my husband’s house. Although I was sick earlier… I didn’t die. What do you mean, Uncle?”
All the people in the shabby temple were shocked, Husband? Where exactly did Liu Miantang come from?

Liu Kun, who was on the other side, understood and was so anxious that he patted his thigh and said, “Why don’t you understand, Lady? You… You have met a villain who cheated you for bed!”
Miantang suddenly stood up, shook her head, and said intuitively, “No, my husband… He’s not like that!”
For a while, many doubts flooded her mind.
At first, he treated her politely, alienated and indifferent, and he always refused to come home… For a moment, Miantang’s brain burst. Standing in this shabby temple, she seemed to have a fantastic dream. She even closed her eyes and tightly squeezed her palm with her fingernails, hoping that this dream would wake up soon…
But at this time, there was a noisy voice outside the shabby temple. In the gradually dark night, the shabby temple was surrounded by officers and soldiers.
In a blaze of fire, a tall man wrapped in a black cape led the officers and soldiers, who appeared at the shabby temple with a grim expression.
Miantang slowly turned back and looked back at him with a wooden expression.
He is still the same as usual, with an unspeakable noble spirit between his eyebrows, a thin nose and lips, and a righteous aura without anger…
How can such a man be the son of a businessman? How could it be… Her husband Cui Jiu?
For a moment, Miantang couldn’t think of anything in her heart. She just thought quietly. This morning, when her husband combed her hair, he gently asked her if she wanted to wear the hairpin he bought for her. She looked back at him with a smile, then lowered her head and asked him to put the hairpin of sparrow embroidery in her bun…
Cui Xingzhou waved his hand and the soldiers who filed in surrounded the people in the shabby temple. After receiving the news from Fan Hu today, he came with his people.
In fact, he stayed outside the shabby temple for a long time, so long that he knew that Miantang’s Uncle Lu Xian was in the shabby temple. He also guessed that Lu Xian told Miantang that he was not her husband Cui Jiu.
He stepped out of his long legs, walked steadily to Miantang’s side, and reached out to pull her hand, but Miantang quickly pulled out the hairpin on her head and stabbed it straight at him at the moment he entered his arms.
If her hand had not been hurt, she might still have had a chance to hit. But Prince Huaiyang had long known that she loved to stab people with hairpins, so he held her hand tightly, then looked deeply into her eyes and said coldly, “Are you going to kill me?”
Miantang stared with her eyes widely opened and said to him, “Who… Who are you?”
Liu Kun had seen Cui Xingzhou before, but he could not see his face clearly when he was wearing a cape with a hat. Liu Kun only saw his approximate figure. Now the torch is bright, and he can see the villain’s face clearly.
To be honest, his appearance is really impeccable. Even Liu Kun, who has seen a lot, has to admit that he is a rare beautiful man.
But since he is not bad looking and should not lack women, why should he coax Liu Miantang into deceiving her into being his wife?
Thinking of this, Liu Kun came forward and wanted to save the young lady.
Liu Kun has good skills. He is the number one escort in the Shenwei escort agency. But in front of Cui Xingzhou, his cold moves seem to have become fancy fists and embroidered legs.
Seeing Cui Xingzhou standing still and turning his wrist with one hand, he easily defused Liu Kun’s attack and hit the acupoint on his arm with a flick of his backhand.
Liu Kun felt a shock in his entire arm, which hurt him so much that he stopped, lost his balance, and stepped a few steps back. The escort agency was supported by two other escorts.
Cui Xingzhou didn’t look at anyone else from beginning to end. He just squinted at Liu Miantang he was holding.
Just now she wanted to attack him! Thinking of this, the towering anger covered up the slight discomfort when his identity was exposed.
However, Miantang’s incomprehension and anger at this time had reached the peak.
At that moment, she thought a lot. No matter what, it is an indisputable fact that he lied to her, and he knew that she didn’t marry her, but he still does… That!
As Uncle Liu said, he is a shameless villain and a thief who deceives women for bed!
At this moment, Liu Kun also shouted, “Let go of our young lady quickly. We are the men you are chasing all the way. What is it got to do with her, a weak woman? If you are capable, why don’t you come at us instead?”
Miantang’s pupil contracted slightly.
Yes, what is he leading these people for? Did… he come with a large number of officers and soldiers to arrest her Big Uncle and Uncle Liu?
Considering that her uncle had said that someone had been chasing them and that her uncle was seriously injured, she raised her hand and gave Cui Xingzhou a hard slap in the face.
Cui Xingzhou can actually evade. However, he did not evade but received the blow. His face was slightly deflected, but he was still expressionless.
Miantang exerted too much force, and the whole person trembled slightly with anger. She continued to ask, “What are you doing? Are you coming to catch my uncle?”
Mo Ru, who was on the other side, couldn’t help but defend his Master: “If it weren’t for our Master’s timely arrival, you guys would have been made dumplings in the shabby temple. Instead of being grateful, you punched our Master and attacked him. It’s a group of people who don’t know how to appreciate it!”
Speaking of this, several soldiers dragged several people into the shabby temple.
All of them were wounded, and they were well grounded.
Liu Kun flashed his eyes and said, “Aren’t they the ones who chased us all the way?”! Among them, the man with the scarred face is the one who seriously wounded their Eldest Master!
Mo Ru continued to say to Miantang with righteous indignation, “Madam, our Master heard that you left the city alone. He was afraid that you might have an accident. So he hurried to bring people here. In addition to the few who are surrounding the shabby temple, there are more than a dozen in the wild forest outside. If we don’t come, how can you people, who are old, weak, sick, and disabled, fight against those people?”
Lu Xian has a high fever, and because he has lost a lot of blood, he is not strong enough. But he has a very sharp eye for people.
Although they have just heard that Miantang, who was injured and lost her memory, was cheated into marriage, he was very angry. But now looking at the man who pretends to be Cui Jiu. His appearance is extraordinary. He shouldn’t be that kind of swindler!
His move to repel Liu Kun just now is neat and clear, which shows that he has a deep foundation of skills.
To be honest, just looking at his skills, he is better than Miantang’s fat pig merchant assigned husband who was arranged by her wicked father.
He’s a good match for his niece.
No wonder Miantang didn’t believe her husband was fake just now. A man like him… Will be robbed by girls wherever it is placed.
Most importantly, Miantang has been missing for almost two years. She must have become a real couple with that fake Cui Jiu.
Although Lu Xian is angry that this guy cheated on their daughter of the Lu family, from the perspective of the elders, the first consideration is the reputation and lifelong happiness of the daughter.
So Lu Xian repressed his anger and reluctantly got up to say thanks to the fake Cui Jiu politely, which was to save face for each other. After he asked for the inner reason, he can then make plans. If he really loves Miantang and he is not a great evil person, he must always leave some opportunities for each other.
But there is one thing. If this kid with full amour bullies his Miantang, he will risk his life and fight with this kid!
Finally, there is a man who can speak logically in this shabby temple. Master Cui Xingzhou finally took back his fierce eyes and said to Miantang coldly, “I don’t know who you are, this seriously injured gentleman. His injury is too serious. He needs to be treated in time. Even if you want to question me, you have to push back and send him back to the city for treatment first.”
Miantang knew that what he said was reasonable, so she just struggled to free her hand and went back to help his uncle out of the shabby temple.
Just now, for a moment, she really misunderstood Cui Xingzhou and thought he was going to be bad for her uncle.
However, she could not find an excuse to forgive Cui Jiu for pretending to be her husband, so she had to send her uncle to the doctor first. She wanted to be alone and recall her absurd two-year life.
After a large number of people arrived at the Jinjia Checkpoint, the military doctor rushed to the account to treat Uncle Lu.
Cui Xingzhou sat on one side and asked those people why they wanted to chase them.
After drinking the antipyretic Decoction prescribed by the doctor, Lu Xian’s mind cleared up for a moment. Facing Cui Xingzhou’s question, he avoided answering it and only asked who he was.
Cui Xingzhou looked at Miantang, who had always turned her back on him, and said succinctly, “I am the official of the Imperial Court who investigates the matters of the Mountain of Yang. What exactly is your relationship with the Mountain of Yang?”
He didn’t reveal his identity as Prince Huaiyang. He didn’t say it for the time being because his soldiers fought with the Mountain of Yangshan to death, so as not to scare them. By letting them know that they are officials, and at the same time, simply pointing out their key points, which also saves them from trying to deceive.
Lu Xian knows that he is an official, and this Jinjia Checkpoint is not accessible to ordinary people. The soldiers around him are respectful to him. It seems that his official position is not small.
At that moment, he vaguely understood the reason why he lied to Miantang, and then he said, “Did you want to use her as bait to catch the followers of the Mountain of Yang when you lied to Miantang?”
Miantang’s hand bandaging his uncle’s wound was slightly stiff and even trembled when she heard this.
Cui Xingzhou has been staring at Miantang’s back and naturally saw her trembling. He took a deep breath, “I rescued her from the water unintentionally. At that time, she was seriously injured and her tendons were cut off. I found someone to treat her. Unexpectedly, she lost all her memory and mistakenly thought I was Cui Jiu… My last name is Cui and I am the ninth in the family. I didn’t mean to deceive her…”
Lu Xian listened to Miantang’s original situation. His eyes were round and his lips trembled with pain. “You said she… Was she seriously injured in the water?”
In fact, Cui Jiu also wanted to know the secret of this drowning. So he said, “Mr. Lu, you’d better tell me what you know. It’s good for you and Miantang. If there’s anything big, I’ll help you look at Miantang’s sake.”
Lu Xian had long been dissatisfied with the Mountain of Yang’s gang of people of the old East Palace, but Miantang was deeply in love with Master Ziyu.
He thought that he had secretly sent people to the Mountain of Yang to find Miantang’s whereabouts, but he got the news that Miantang was framed by Yunniang, chased and killed, seriously injured, and fell into the water and died.
In this way, it is consistent with the situation of Miantang who was rescued by Cui Jiu.
In Lu Xian’s view, Miantang and Ziyu are a bad relationship. Whether that Royal descendant will be rich and noble or end up dead has nothing to do with Miantang of his family!
Since Miantang fell into the water and lost her memory because of him, it is a gift from heaven.
She had forgotten her relationship with Ziyu and her experience with the Mountain of Yang. Such days are not what a boudoir woman should experience!
Thinking of this, Lu Xian decided to hide the past of Miantang as the leader of the Mountain of Yang, “Lu Wen”, and never let others know!
The rest will be borne by her uncle!
