Under the illumination of the night pearls in the court, the old High Scholar and his son received the Epigraph of My Shack and left happily.
Magistrate Qin and Zhao Hongzhuang were talking in a low voice.
The yamen runners beside them were much more nervous than usual.
Although the capital was a prefecture, it was actually equivalent to a province. Magistrate Qin was not an ordinary fifth-grade magistrate, but a third-grade one. He even had the same title as Fang Yun, Minister of the Inner Cabinet. Furthermore, all the previous magistrates of the capital would eventually become Minister of the Inner Cabinet. There was a high chance that he would become one of the Four Prime Ministers.
When such an important person was trying a case in the middle of the night, the yamen runners were a hundred times more energetic than usual. However, they did not expect the case to be over so quickly.
As soon as the case was over, the disheveled Wang Zhengying's expression changed drastically. It was as if he had completed the final goal of his life and had no more regrets. He was ready to die at any time.
Then, Wang Zhengying slowly squatted down and covered his mouth to stop himself from crying. However, tears slowly flowed down his face.
Fang Yun did not scold him for being a good-for-nothing. Only those who had loved him would understand his sorrow.
It did not matter if he was a scholar or a saint.
Fang Yun did not say anything. He just looked at Wang Zhengying quietly.
After a long time, Zhao Hongzhuang walked over and whispered, "The case is over. As long as we send him back to Jiangzhou, no one can harm him again."
"Okay." As Fang Yun spoke, he walked behind Wang Zhengying and looked at her. Suddenly, he raised his leg and aimed a kick at Wang Zhengying's butt.
Wang Zhengying was caught off guard and fell to the ground. He looked at Fang Yun in confusion.
Fang Yun was dressed in a black robe. He swung his hands and placed his sleeves behind his back. He walked out in big strides.
"Come with me to the Huang family to propose marriage."
"Ah? Ah! Ah! " Wang Zhengying's confusion turned to surprise, then to joy. Finally, he stood up quickly with a silly smile and ran behind Fang Yun.
The three of them walked out of the yamen. Fang Yun and Zhao Hongzhuang got into the car one after the other.
Wang Zhengying stood there in a daze, smiling foolishly.
Fang Yun stood at the door and said, "What are you doing there? Get in! "
Wang Zhengying pointed in the opposite direction of the horse's head. He chuckled and said, "That's the Huang family."
"Nonsense, how are you going to propose marriage in your current state?" Fang Yun rolled his eyes at Wang Zhengying.
"Yes, yes, yes …" Wang Zhengying giggled and jumped into the carriage.
Fang Yun's heart skipped a beat. "Don't enter the carriage. Sit in front of the door and reflect. Let the wind blow."
Wang Zhengying was anxious, she said, "I was arrested today and have been in prison for a long time, my body and mind are haggard. Just now I cried my heart out, what if I get sick from the wind?"
"Hmph. It would be better if he was sick! Cut the crap. If you want me to propose marriage, then be obedient! "Fang Yun said with a dark face.
"Alright …" Wang Zhengying helplessly sat down with the coachman, taking deep breaths to adjust her emotions.
When the car arrived at the first dormitory of the school, Wang Zhengying's good friend Bao Han and his servant were waiting at the door. When they saw Wang Zhengying in the front of the car, they were overjoyed and quickly ran over.
Wang Zhengying smiled at the two of them.
The carriage stopped and Fang Yun's voice came from the carriage, "Why aren't you thanking Bao Han and your servant? If they weren't smart enough to look for me, you wouldn't be able to escape. You wouldn't be able to get out of prison for the rest of your life! "
"Yes! Yes! Yes! Thank you, Brother Bao! Thank you, Xiao Hu! Thank you … "
"Get off the carriage!" Fang Yun lifted the curtain and said.
"Yes, yes, yes …" Wang Zhengying giggled and jumped off the carriage.
"Hongzhuang, I'm leaving. See you tomorrow." Fang Yun said.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Hongzhuang bent over and walked out of the carriage. She lifted the curtain on the other side of the carriage. The two of them looked at each other through the curtain.
"I'll sleep with Yuhuan tonight. Let's see how you propose marriage tomorrow morning. I've heard that you've become the number one matchmaker in Jingguo, but I've never seen you propose marriage. "Zhao Hongzhuang's face was full of smiles.
Fang Yun saw something hidden in her smile and said angrily, "I think you want to see me make a fool of myself! Brother Zhengying. I wanted you to thank her, but you don't have to thank her. "
Wang Zhengying smiled and cupped his hands, "This student thanks the Eldest Princess."
"It won't be too late to thank me after you marry the Third Miss Huang. This is my congratulatory gift. Keep it well. "Zhao Hongzhuang threw the dragon and phoenix jade pendant she got from the palace to Wang Zhengying.
Wang Zhengying caught it in a hurry.
Everyone entered the first room, washed up and went to sleep.
Zhao Hongzhuang and Yang Yuhuan slept in the same room. Initially, Nuu was with them, but after listening to them talk for a while, she secretly left and went to Fang Yun's room. She lay beside Fang Yun and waved her little paw in front of Fang Yun's eyes. She found that Fang Yun was really asleep, so she smiled sweetly and curled up to sleep.
Zhao Hongzhuang and Yang Yuhuan were the first to wake up and dress up in front of the dressing table.
Then, Fang Yun, Wang Zhengying, and the servants woke up one after another.
When it was time for breakfast, Bao Han came to the first room with a dark blue scholar robe in his hand.
"I brought the robe. What does Marquis Wen need it for?"
Fang Yundao, "Zhengying, go and change into the robe Bao Han brought."
Wang Zhengying picked up the robe and measured it, saying, "Brother Fang, this robe is too big. It's two sizes bigger than my robe."
"Stop talking nonsense. If I tell you to wear it, then wear it." Fang Yundao said.
"Alright. Anyway, the happiness of the rest of my life is in your hands. I'll finish this bowl of porridge first. "Wang Zhengying weakly said.
"You don't need to drink. It's enough that you're 30% full." Fang Yundao said.
Wang Zhengying pitifully looked at Fang Yun and said, "You can't treat me like this. When I looked in the mirror this morning, my face was haggard. I tried to wash my face, but it didn't work. I still want to rely on this breakfast to make up for it. You can't treat me like this. "
"If you want me to propose marriage, then don't eat! Go and change your clothes. I don't know why such a good daughter would like you! Go! "Fang Yun glared at Wang Zhengying, scaring him into quickly leaving.
"Everyone says that Fang Zhenguo is good. Why is he so cruel to me? In any case, I'm still your senior brother! "Wang Zhengying muttered in a low voice.
Bao Han coughed lightly and said, "Marquis Wen, are you planning to play the trick of injuring yourself to gain sympathy?"
"Is the Huang family worth my effort?" Fang Yun asked.
"That's true."
After breakfast, Fang Yun and the others bid farewell to Yang Yuhuan and got into two separate carriages. Nuu's big eyes looked around. She jumped into the first carriage and into Fang Yun's arms, grinning.
Fang Yun hugged the little fox and chatted with Zhao Hongzhuang about poems and essays. Wang Zhengying and Bao Han's carriage followed behind as they drove towards the capital's famous Huang family.
The capital's famous families might not be as noble as the famous families outside, but the capital's famous families would definitely have to pay a high price to buy a house in the inner city.
Without the ability to buy a house in the inner city where every inch of land was worth an inch of gold, without a courtyard on a jade mountain, without a thousand mu of fertile land in the suburbs of the capital, they would never be able to become a famous family in the capital.
The capital's early morning was especially refreshing. The autumn wind gently blew, transmitting a trace of coolness.
The two carriages stopped in front of the Huang family's door.
Before the carriage stopped, Wang Zhengying jumped off the carriage in a hurry. Just like last night, his face was full of smiles.
The Huang family's gatekeeper heard the noise and came out. When he saw the haggard and disheveled Wang Zhengying, he angrily scolded, "Get out of the Huang family! Master said that the Huang family will never marry their daughter to a despicable person like you! Get out! If you step on this step, I'll ask someone to break your legs! "
Wang Zhengying's smile froze on his face. He opened his mouth to refute the gatekeeper, but in the end, he did not have the courage to speak. He could only turn his head to look at Fang Yun.
