Chapter 468 Tang Travel (10)
What angered these people was that several groups went out to investigate, but they couldn't find out where the person was or what their name was.
Meanwhile, someone came to deliver a message to Wangyou.
"Miss Wangyou, someone is investigating you," Caohua said hurriedly as she ran in.
"Don't worry about it, just take this money. You'll need it when necessary."
"Yes, Miss Wangyou, don't worry, everyone is grateful to you and will definitely not let your scumbag father find you." Caohua patted her developing chest and hurriedly ran out again.
Wangyou thought, "No wonder it was a decision made by that great man. Using the countryside as a base, even a small spark can start a prairie fire."
When Li Shimin received the news in the palace, he was furious. "A bunch of useless people! They can't even find a child!"
Li Shimin has been in a particularly irritable mood lately because his injuries are not healing, and with his subordinates being so incompetent, he's practically a walking powder keg.
In addition, after tireless examination, the imperial physicians finally determined that Li Shimin's wound had been poisoned, but there was no antidote for this poison at the moment.
Li Shimin did not suspect Wangyou, after all, he had no grudge against that girl, at most she disliked him, but it was not enough for her to poison him.
At this moment, Li Shimin selectively forgot the fate of those men in black in the teahouse.
As a result, the forces behind those assassins suffered a devastating blow.
Wangyou is currently teasing Liefeng in the courtyard.
Qin Qiong ordered his men to thoroughly investigate all members of the Qin family. During the war, the Qin family members were scattered or lost, and finding them now was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Since she was a daughter of the Qin family who had married out, Qin Qiong investigated her one by one. After more than half a year of investigation, when he saw the final result he had deduced, Qin Qiong gasped in shock.
Based on age, only a very distant cousin is suitable; she is truly very distant, with only a slight blood relation.
However, this cousin entered the harem of the then-King of Qin in her early years. Logically, she should have developed a relationship with him, but unfortunately, he was away fighting a war. When he returned, his uncle and aunt had died of an illness.
Not long after, His Majesty ascended the throne, and Qin Ran was made a concubine. Qin Ran was beautiful and enjoyed his favor for a time, but for some reason she was suddenly banished to the Cold Palace, where she gave birth to a daughter.
Meanwhile, Li Shimin also followed the Qin family line and discovered Wangyou's identity, which made him furious.
This could actually be his daughter, the one who wrote the letter cursing him and wrote words on his face. Shouldn't he praise her as worthy of being his daughter?
Li Shimin directly dispatched people to expedite the investigation of all nearby households and villages.
However, where there's a policy, there's a countermeasure. When the villagers in the vicinity saw the person in the portrait, they first looked at it carefully, and then shook their heads seriously, saying they didn't see him.
They would add at the end: "This beautiful little girl is like a fairy; once you see her, you'll never forget her."
It's infuriating to find someone right under your nose.
Wangyou knew everything that was happening in the Qin family and the palace. When she heard that Li Shimin had smashed all the memorials in the room, she even made some comments with a smug look on her face.
"Miss, are you really planning to go back?"
"Of course, how can I watch my enemy suffer if I don't go back? Words are never as good as seeing it with my own eyes." Wangyou is now powerful enough that she is not afraid of Li Shimin doing anything to her if she goes back.
"Miss, I want to see it too, to avenge Madam." Qingman was also filled with hatred.
"Qingman, you can stay here, or you can buy a house in the city if you want. You've always taken care of me. From now on, just live the rest of your life well. Don't go back to that filthy place in the palace."
"Miss, don't you want me anymore?"
"What are you saying? We are the closest of family. I would never abandon you, no matter who else I want."
“Then take this servant with me. I must watch my enemy suffer and die with my own eyes. That way, when I’m gone, I can tell Madam.”
"What are you saying? You're not getting married? I saw you exchanging glances with Scholar Zhou."
"Miss," Qingman said shyly.
“Qingman, I’ve held you back all these years. And because I didn’t know, I didn’t discover this. But apart from being a bit unlucky, Zhou Xiucai is quite learned and has a good character. Besides, he has no parents or brothers, so you don’t have to worry about anyone making you suffer.”
"But Miss, I'm worried about you going back alone."
"Don't worry about me at all. Besides, I have a monkey to keep me company. And when I go back, I'm definitely not the one who will be in trouble."
"If you need me, please let me know."
"Of course! Without further ado, I'll go and propose marriage to that scholar Zhou, and have him marry into our family," Wangyou said enthusiastically.
"Miss, I should be the one marrying into that family."
“Is his courtyard as comfortable as ours? Definitely not. Besides, if he’s unwilling and feels humiliated, then it’s better not to marry him,” Wangyou said earnestly.
After thinking for a moment, Qingman felt that Wangyou was right. If someone can't even pretend to be good before marriage, expecting them to improve after marriage is just wishful thinking.
"It's entirely up to you, Miss." Qingman nodded in agreement.
"I'll go ask Aunt Tian next door what we need to prepare." Wangyou dashed out to find someone.
“Miss Wangyou, I’ll ask about this. You and Qingman are both young and unmarried, so it’s not suitable for you.”
"Oh, I see. Thank you for your help." Wangyou readily put down ten taels of silver. "I'm sorry to trouble you."
Then Wangyou carefully explained her request to Aunt Tian, who repeated it. After confirming that there were no problems, Aunt Tian went out.
"Caohua, if I leave, would you be willing to come with me?" After seeing Aunt Tian off, Wangyou looked at Caohua beside her and asked.
"Yes!" Grass Flower answered without hesitation.
"why?"
"My intuition tells me I'll regret not following you. Besides, if it weren't for Miss Wangyou, I would never have had the chance to learn to read and write. If I could continue to work for Miss Wangyou, I would be willing."
Wangyou smiled and said, "That's right. How could someone who has seen the world be willing to be locked up again?"
"Go ask any girls in the village who are about my age if they're willing to go, preferably someone who's clever."
"Miss, leave it to me." Grass Flower realized that this was an exceptionally rare opportunity.
Aunt Tian was quick; she brought news to Wangyou early the next morning: Zhou Xiucai was willing to marry into the family, but any children they had in the future would have to bear the surname Zhou.
Qingman said she had no objection, so Wangyou went to the city to prepare for the marriage proposal and wedding, while Qingman stayed at home to embroider her wedding dress.
As soon as Wangyou entered the city, someone noticed and reported it as quickly as possible.
Wangyou went straight to the Treasure Pavilion; she needed to carefully select the phoenix crown for her wedding.
