Chapter 47 "The Marquis has no children, and the relatives are eyeing the position of the heir
Qi Luoting's eyes darkened and he quickly asked the aunt: "Auntie, can you see clearly that this is Yu Jinshu, the legitimate daughter of General Yu's family?"
He hasn't added the scar on the girl's face yet.
The aunt smiled awkwardly: "The facial features and face are indeed similar, but they don't seem to be as beautiful as the one you painted."
At this time, a woman next to her said: "I heard that General Yu's legitimate daughter Yu Jinshu disappeared yesterday. General Yu sent people to search around the capital. Later, they found Yu Jinshu's big white horse by the river. I heard from the boatman that she had drowned. Shui was rescued by a young master. He didn't return home all night, and I don't know whether the young master was a good person or a bad person. I was afraid that the integrity of Yu Jin's book was not guaranteed and his body was damaged."
Qi Luoting originally thought that the aunt was not sure that this girl was the legitimate daughter of General Yu, but he breathed a sigh of relief.
But after hearing what the woman said, his face turned ugly again.
Could it be that she is really Yu Jinshu, the legitimate daughter of General Yu’s family?
General Yu killed Nangong Yueli, the girl he had longed for for several years.
By the way, the girl had a scar on her face last night, and she kept talking drunkenly with a frightened look on her face, saying not to kill her.
Could it be that Nangong Yueli dressed up as Zhuang Niang to kill Yu Jinshu?
At this time, someone else started talking: "Don't you know? Yu Jinshu was supposed to get married to Mr. Qi last month, but was disfigured by Nangong Yueli and almost killed. Fortunately, General Yu arrived in time. , kill Nangong Yueli, otherwise Yu Jinshu will die."
Another insider said: "I heard that Nangong Yueli was deeply in love with Mr. Qi. She couldn't stand Mr. Qi marrying Yu Jinshu, so she dressed up as a makeup girl and entered the general's mansion to kill Yu Jinshu."
One of the young masters sighed: "Alas! Nangong Yueli is a talented girl in the capital. She is the dream of many young masters! I didn't expect that underneath her beautiful appearance, she has a heart of snake and scorpion."
"Isn't that right? In order to meet her, I stayed in front of her house for several days! Later, I asked someone to ask for her hand in marriage."
As soon as the young master said this, he attracted everyone's attention.
Someone asked: "Then you asked for marriage, did you get any results?"
The young man said: "What can be the result? Her father will be arrested soon."
"It's a good thing you didn't marry me back home, otherwise I wouldn't even know I'd cut you off one day."
"If such a jealous woman really marries home, she will definitely not be able to take another concubine, otherwise she will really be mutilated."
"Don't talk about taking a concubine, you can't even go to the Flower House, and you will be cut off."
Qi Luoting couldn't stand listening anymore. The Bai Yueguang he once thought of turned out to be such a person, which really made him feel embarrassed and annoyed.
Follower Azuo said: "Master Marquis, General Yu's mansion is not far ahead. Why don't you pay a visit?"
Qi Luoting thought of last night's love affair and how Yu Jinshu had been stabbed on the face by Nangong Yueli, and he felt heartbroken.
Nangong Yueli almost killed Yu Jinshu. Thinking of this, he hated Nangong Yueli.
Of course, he hated himself even more for being blind. How could he have loved Nangong Yueli for so many years? I'm afraid I was fooled by lard!
Qi Luoting walked towards the General's Mansion.
In front of the general's mansion, Azuo held Xiaobai and knocked on the door.
When the concierge heard that Marquis Taining came to see him, he quickly ran to report it.
The Marquis is second only to the Prince, not to mention Qi Luoting, the God of War in Southern Xinjiang.
Qi Luoting once used five thousand soldiers to kill a hundred thousand foreign enemies without leaving any pieces of armor behind. He had won every battle in the battlefield for ten years.
When Yu Xiaoan was stationed in northern Xinjiang, what he loved to inquire about most was Qi Luoting's war in southern Xinjiang.
Now that the country is peaceful and the people are safe, Qi Luoting returned to the capital three years ago, and Yu Xiaoan returned last year.
Yu Xiaoan thought about meeting Qi Luoting several times, but he heard that Qi Luoting had a cold temperament and did not like to make friends with others. So far, he had only met him a few times in the court, but he had not been able to sit down and talk.
Qi Luoting came to visit in person. Yu Xiaoan didn't know what was going on and hurriedly came out to greet him.
"The Marquis of Taining is here, and I'm sorry to welcome you from afar!" Yu Xiaoan bowed and bowed.
Facing his future father-in-law, Qi Luoting also bowed down, cupped his hands and said, "General Yu, don't be surprised if you pay an unexpected visit without sending a greeting!"
Yu Xiaoan smiled and said: "I have long wanted to meet Marquis Taining. I am really happy that Marquis Taining can come today." He quickly invited Qi Luoting in.
When they arrived at the hall, Qi Luoting stated his purpose: "I came today to confirm something."
Before yesterday, he had thought about coming to the General's Mansion many times, all because he wanted to investigate the Nangong Yueli case. However, he did not expect that when he stepped into the General's Mansion, it was because of Yu Jinshu, the legitimate daughter of General Yu. Come.
Yu Xiaoan stretched out his hand to invite you: "Marquis Taining, please speak."
Qi Luoting looked calm: "Yesterday I was fishing on the bank of the Yongding River and met a girl who was drowning. I rescued the girl, but because the girl was soaked, I had no choice but to take her back to the house and let the maids take care of her. I changed my clothes and left dinner." Let’s not mention the rest of the matter for now.
When Yu Xiaoan heard this, he felt extremely complicated.
It turned out that the young master who saved his precious daughter was Qi Luoting, the Marquis of Taining.
Men and women are not close to each other, but in this water, it is inevitable that their skin will touch each other. Logically, they have to get married.
However, there was a widespread rumor in Beijing that Qi Luoting was not in power and that there were many wives and concubines at home.
But if it weren't for Qi Luoting, my daughter might have died.
Yu Xiaoan stood up quickly, cupped his hands and said, "I didn't expect that it was Marquis Taining who saved my little girl's life. If Marquis Taining hadn't taken action, my little girl would have sunk to the bottom of the river. I am really grateful!"
Qi Luoting also stood up and gave Yu Xiaoan a virtual support: "General, there is no need to be polite. Since we have encountered him, how can we not save him even if he is dead?"
Yu Xiaoan looked at Qi Luoting, feeling both grateful and worried.
He could tell that Qi Luoting definitely didn't come here to seek fame or money for saving his life.
If not, then why did Qi Luoting come to visit?
Although Qi Luoting was a talented man and a noble man, he had physical defects and had many wives and concubines. If he came to ask for his daughter's hand in marriage, he would definitely not agree.
Qi Luoting really came here just to marry Yu Jinshu.
However, he did not mention this matter. He only said: "I came here today just to confirm whether the woman I rescued yesterday was Yu Jinshu, the daughter of General Yu. She had a white cat that disappeared from my house yesterday. I just found it this morning and came here to return it.”
Yu Xiaoan was thinking that if it was for a white cat, Qi Luoting could just send someone to deliver it, but he actually came to the door in person. It seemed that he came to ask for marriage.
He looked at the white cat again. He had never seen it before, but there were several cats in the house, and he didn't know if it was his daughter's.
"Then Marquis Taining means that he wants to meet my little girl?"
Qi Luoting nodded: "Exactly."
Yu Xiaoan looked embarrassed and said: "It's not a coincidence, my little girl..."
"Dad, who wants to see me?"
Yu Jinshu had already arranged for someone to watch in front of the door. She expected that Qi Luoting would come to Kangfu Street to look for her. As for whether he could find the General's Mansion, Qi Luoting must not be stupid and he should be able to find it easily.
Now it seems that it is indeed the case, and it was found so quickly.
Yu Xiaoan was very anxious, wondering why her daughter appeared out of nowhere?
