"Thank you for saving me today, Fuma.”Looking at the seven-year-old Yuan Keyi, Qin Qiong's face was flushed with excitement.
Originally, Qin Qiong wanted to hold a banquet to entertain Yuan Keyi and his party. However, Yuan Keyi rejected him. Yuan Keyi was not interested in eating. Moreover, he had his own matters to attend to now.
After obtaining the Spirit Servant Land, Yuan Keyi wanted to quickly make use of the land's ability. High-yield sweet potatoes were definitely excellent crops. Moreover, Yuan Keyi had the advantage and could make the crops grow quickly. He was now the Xuanyi Marquis, his fief was Xuanyi County, and he had ten thousand households of food. Therefore, Yuan Keyi planned to go to his fief to plant his own sweet potatoes.
"You don't have to be so polite, Duke Yi." Yuan Keyi raised his small face as he spoke. Then, he turned to look at Madam Yang and Wu Meiniang. This is State Duke Yi, the wife and daughter of State Duke Ying Wu Shi. They must have something to ask State Duke Yi for help. They are both distinguished figures of the Great Tang. If there is anything they can help, State Duke Yi, please extend your hand.”
Yuan Keyi looked at Wu Meiniang and Madam Yang and said with a smile. Of course, Yuan Keyi was not a busybody. The main reason was that Yuan Keyi was really curious about the empress of this generation and had a trace of interest in her. That was why he had come to ask.
When Yuan Keyi said this, Madam Yang's face revealed a hint of gratitude. As for Wu Meiniang, she looked at Yuan Keyi with her young face and smiled slightly. She didn't forget to wink at Yuan Keyi.
"Little vixen!" Yuan Keyi quivered. A ten-year-old girl was actually so seductive. No wonder Li Zhi was so captivated by her.
"Duke, please help us orphans and widows.”Madam Yang couldn't care less about her woman's reservedness anymore. She began to cry to the many dignitaries in front of her.
"Mother!" Seeing Madam Yang like this, Wu Meiniang's face showed a trace of sadness. She stepped forward and supported her mother."Mother, don't cry. If they come to the capital to bully us, I will fight them to the death."”As she spoke, Wu Meiniang clenched her fists as if she was very angry.
"Madam, what exactly happened?”Everyone was stunned as they looked at Madam Yang and Wu Meiniang. From Wu Meiniang's tone, it seemed like someone was bullying them. This was somewhat unbelievable. After all, even if Wu Shi died, Wu clan would not have fallen to such a state. According to the rules of the Great Tang, after the death of the father, the eldest son would inherit the title, and the title would be reduced by one rank. At the very least, Wu clan would still be a marquis.
"It was my two brothers who oppressed us after my father died.”Wu Meiniang had an indignant look on her face as she recounted what had happened to the mother and daughter.
" This…" When Wu Meiniang finished speaking, everyone was stunned. With a trace of hesitation on their faces, they looked at each other. Although they were a little angry, they did not speak.
"As expected, the mother and daughter were forced to return to Chang 'an from Jing State. However, this is the Wu family's matter. It seems that these people are not willing to interfere.”After Yuan Keyi heard Wu Meiniang's narration, he thought to himself. His gaze drifted towards Qin Qiong and the rest, knowing that most of these people would not care about this matter.
The matter was very simple. After the death of Wu Shi, his sons joined forces to bully Yang Shi and Wu Mei Niang. Originally, it was just verbal bullying, but Wu Shi Yao's sons had gone crazy and actually planned to betroth a ten-year-old Wu Mei Niang to the son of a wealthy merchant in Jingzhou.
If the son of that rich businessman was a complete person, it would be fine, but he was a cripple. It was obvious that the son of the warrior only wanted to exchange Wu Mei Niang for money. And for that rich merchant to have a daughter of a noble family as his wife, he was definitely willing to give Wu clan a lot of money.
It was unknown where Madam Yang heard the news. She left Jingzhou overnight with Wu Meiniang and rushed back to Chang 'an, hoping to get help.
The Yang Consortium first sought out a few noble families who were on good terms with the samurai, but they were all politely rejected. It was difficult for an upright official to resolve a family matter. This was Wu clan's own family matter, it was not good for others to interfere, and they were not willing to interfere. After all, Yang clan and Wu Meiniang did not have much status in Wu clan.
After the Yang Consortium ran into a wall many times, they had no choice but to seek help from other dignitaries. He had been to some noble houses and was politely sent out and politely rejected. In the end, they just happened to see Qin Manor. Only then did he plan to try his luck again and see if Wing Duke Qin Qiong would be willing to help. After all, Qin Qiong was also known for his chivalrous deeds.
Then, it was Yuan Keyi and the others who had met at the door just now. The butler of Qin Manor did not even want them to enter the door. And now, it was not difficult to see from these people's faces that they were not willing to interfere in such matters.
After all, an elder brother was like a father, after the death of Wu Shi, Wu clan was headed by his son. It was their freedom to marry their sister to whoever they wanted. No one could say anything wrong. They could only criticize them from the perspective of morality and friendship.
