The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate

Marquis Su and Mrs. Su were speechless and wanted to lock Su Yanyu up.

However, Su Yanyu seemed to sense their intention. He looked at Marquis Su and Mrs. Su and said quickly, “Don’t even think about it. If you do anything that causes me to miss this rare opportunity, I won’t get married in my life. I’m serious.”

“Go, go, go. If you get into trouble, don’t ask me to bail you out.”

Marquis Su lost his appetite completely. He slapped his chopsticks on the table and turned his face away.

!!

Mrs. Su looked at Su Yanyu. “You’ve already grown up. You should have a sense of proportion.”

Su Yanyu looked serious. “Of course I know that.”

It was precisely because he had a sense of proportion that he felt this was a rare opportunity. Su Yanyu thought of General Black and his eyes lit up. “Just the fact that Miss Liu has that big black dog shows that she’s extraordinary. If that black dog has babies in the future, on account of my relationship with Miss Liu, I will be the first to get one. It’ll grow up and look as intimidating as General Black.”

In the past, he liked to watch dog fights, but those dogs were too weak compared to General Black.

Mrs. Su knew she couldn’t stop her son. She waved her hand. “Get lost. Don’t stay here and be an eyesore.”

Su Yanyu ran away happily.

Mrs. Su poured a cup of tea for Marquis Su and said, “We have to think in another way. What kind of person was Yanyu in the past? He was wild and rebellious and caused us a lot of headaches. Now, he’s much more mature. Although Miss Liu is young, it’s not fair to judge someone by their age.”

Marquis Su sighed. “He doesn’t listen to me. What can I do anyways?”

In the past, though Su Yanyu was fooling around, he didn’t do anything too risky, but now, he insisted on befriending Liu Sanniang. Once he was in trouble, the trouble would be too big to handle.

Forget it. He only had one son. If something really happened, he would put down his dignity and beg the emperor to spare his son’s life.

Mrs. Su smiled and said, “I know you have a sharp tongue but a soft heart.”

Marquis Su forced a smile but didn’t say anything. If it weren’t for the fact that he only had one son, why would he be so soft-hearted…

Su Yanyu went to the kitchen to grab the chicken that had been stewed for hours before walking out of the mansion happily.

When he arrived, Su Yanyu took the stewed chicken from his servant, Su Changde.

Su Changde went forward and knocked on the door. Su Yanyu shouted. “General Black, open the door for me. I brought you something good today.”

The door opened quickly and a big black head stuck out. Su Yanyu walked in happily, and General Black closed the door with his head.

The smile on Su Changde’s face froze. Sometimes, he felt he was doing worse than a dog.

Su Yanyu hugged the big clay pot. As soon as he opened it, a strong fragrance wafted out. Su Yanyu smiled and patted General Black’s head. “Hurry up and eat. It’s still warm.”

Only when General Black began eating did Su Yanyu go to the main hall. Liu Sanniang poured a cup of fruit tea. “Young Marquis, do you drink tea?”

Su Yanyu smiled. “Of course.”

Su Yanyu looked at Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, have you eaten?”

Liu Sanniang shook her head. “Not yet. Have you?”

Su Yanyu touched his stomach. “Not yet.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. Su Yanyu felt that his little trick had been seen through. How could he not have eaten at this hour? However, as long as he didn’t admit it, Liu Sanniang would kindly ask him to eat together with her.

After Su Yanyu ate with Liu Sanniang, he went to clean up the big clay pot that General Black had finished. Liu Sanniang looked at Su Yanyu and said, “Young Marquis, stay at home during this period of time.”

Su Yanyu was instantly displeased. “I’m not afraid. I can come whenever I want.”

Not only did he want to come, but he also wanted to come every day, a few times a day.

Su Yanyu touched the dog’s head. “General Black, I’ll go back first. I’ll send you braised pigeons tonight.”

With that, Su Yanyu opened the door and left.

General Black closed the door and walked to Liu Sanniang’s side, rubbing his head against her palm. General Black did not dislike Su Yanyu. Other than the Liu family and Chu Yan, Su Yanyu was the first person who could touch General Black’s hair.

Su Yanyu was different even if he couldn’t be a cultivator.

In the next two days, Liu Sanniang’s life did not change. When she was free, she would pass her time doing embroidery.

The atmosphere in the Ministry of War was tense. Since this case concerned the abbot of Jingen Temple, it was naturally not a small one. He personally went to Jingen Temple and explained everything.

Yuan Hui didn’t respond and kept chanting under his breath for a long time. Wu Changxian felt uneasy. This was a holy place of the Buddhist Sect. What he said might be taken as an insult. However, for the sake of investigation, he had to make this trip.

Yuan Hui sighed softly. “Amitabha.”

Wu Changxian said, “Master Yuan Hui, this is a serious matter. It’s best for you to go and prove your innocence.”

Yuan Hui looked at Wu Changxian calmly and said, “Of course I will go. For my innocence and to protect the reputation of the sect.”

Wu Changxian’s mood was a little heavy. “It’s good that you are willing to cooperate.”

Yuan Hui nodded slightly. “This matter concerns me. How can I run away from it?”

Wu Changxian said, “In that case, I won’t disturb you anymore.”

After leaving Jingen Temple, Wu Changxian’s heart was a little heavy. He did not want to believe that such a ridiculous thing could happen in this Buddhist temple that had been standing for hundreds of years.

In the capital, many people were looking forward to hearing the result.

Xia Qiluo’s two shifu, Xu Ran and Xu Qing, had already arrived. Xia Qiluo informed Wu Changxian about it and set the time. Xia Qiluo explained the nuts and bolts of this matter to them and went to the Ministry of War the next day.

Xia Qiluo said to Wu Changxian, “Lord Wu, I presume that you must have informed Master Yuan Hui and Miss Liu, right?”

Wu Changxian nodded. “I’ve already informed them. We agreed to meet at noon. It’s not the time yet.”
