Chapter 288 Should I Marry Him? (Subscribe!)
Hearing his daughter's words, Murong Yuliang smiled bitterly and said:
"Qingwu, you still don't understand the dangers of the officialdom. You think Ye Mingsheng is too kind!"

"This Ye Mingsheng is really ruthless and merciless. He did not conduct any investigation or trial at all. Just based on his words, he killed hundreds of people in Fengzhou casually, leaving the vegetable market full of heads. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is an executioner or a butcher!"

“What is he doing this for?
"Isn't it just to eliminate dissidents and make all the officials in Fengzhou tremble under the butcher's knife, so that you can firmly control the Fengzhou government in your hands?"

"Will your father, the governor of Fengzhou, become a mere figurehead who can do nothing..."

Murong Qingwu wanted to say something after hearing this, but before she opened her mouth, Murong Yuliang waved his hand, interrupted her and said:
"Qingwu, don't worry. I am old and no longer a young man. It is not the time for me to conquer the world with my courage alone. Since I have rushed to this dangerous place, I have already found a way to deal with Ye Mingsheng. With me in Fengzhou, nothing can change the world!"

Feeling the strong confidence in her father's words, Murong Qingwu relaxed his expression and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Murong Yuliang changed the subject and continued:
"Qingwu, I am most worried about you. Why would you stay in Luo'an? Why do you have to travel thousands of miles across mountains and rivers to come to this desolate and remote Fengzhou?"

"Dad, didn't I tell you? I have been living at home since I was a child. I have never been anywhere except Luoan. My greatest wish in life is to see the beautiful mountains and rivers of our dynasty..." Murong Qingwu bit her red lips and said:

Murong Yuliang shook his head at his daughter's explanation and said helplessly:

"You don't like the family's arrangement, and you don't like that sickly Yao Kaitai. Your father can understand you, and your father has never asked you to jump into the fire pit of the Yao family. Your father also hopes that you can marry a good family and live a stable life!"

"Which second son of the Wen family is Wen Zejun? You should understand how he feels about you!"

"This child is as gentle as jade. He is talented, yet calm and capable. He is a rare modest gentleman. He is deeply in love with you and is infatuated with you. You and he grew up together and know each other very well. In your opinion, you two are a match made in heaven..."

"Besides, his elder brother is useless, greedy for money and lustful, and will be a mediocre person in this life. The Wen family will do their best to help Wen Tingyun get promoted. In the next two years, Wen Tingyun will be able to become a fifth-rank official, and his future will be bright. Why do you have to do this?"

Hearing her father's earnest words, Murong Qingwu pursed her lips and said stubbornly:
“My daughter is grateful for your father’s protection, but love is something that cannot be forced. Wen Zejun is a very good person and has always been tolerant of me, but I have always regarded him as a brother and never thought about the relationship between men and women…”

"Also, if you want to marry someone, you should put their future first!"

"What about this Fengzhou General Ye Mingsheng? I heard that he is two years younger than Wen Zeyun, but he is already on equal footing with you, Daddy. He is the Fengzhou General of the fifth rank of the imperial court, and the Tiger Power General of the Zhenwu Army?"

"Should my daughter marry him?"

Although he knew that his daughter was deliberately trying to piss him off, when he heard his daughter say that she wanted to marry Ye Mingsheng, such an ambitious man, Murong Yuliang was still so angry that he pointed at Murong Qingwu and couldn't say a word. Seeing this, Murong Qingwu quickly handed her old father a cup of tea and left the room to avoid pissing Murong Yuliang off again...

Ye Mingsheng, who was unaware of the conversation between Murong and his daughter, was meeting an unexpected person in his study at this time.

Seeing Qiqige's calm face, Ye Mingsheng, who was called a "dog official" by her, laughed and teased:
"I was wondering why the magpies in the trees were calling so early in the morning. Turns out it's you, Miss Qiqige..."

"Humph!"

In response to Ye Mingsheng's teasing, Qiqige snorted coldly and did not give him a good look. If it was not for her own lady's order, she would never want to see Ye Mingsheng, this hateful dog official, again in her life!
Seeing Qiqige's attitude, Ye Mingsheng did not get angry, but just said lightly:
"You are here this time, I think Miss Miaoyi, is there anything you want to tell me?"

When Qiqige heard Ye Mingsheng accurately say the name of his young lady, shock was immediately written all over her healthy complexion. How could Ye Mingsheng know that she was the young lady's man?

I clearly didn’t tell him last time?

Looking at Qiqige's facial expression, Ye Mingsheng's smile became three times more intense. Although he had guessed from the information revealed in Qiqige's words when they met last time, that the mastermind behind Qiqige was An Miaoyi.

But after all, there is no evidence yet, so Ye Mingsheng cannot be completely sure, and now there is no doubt that Qiqige’s reaction is the best evidence for Ye Mingsheng’s guess...
Qiqige wanted to deny it at first, but when she saw Ye Mingsheng's smile, she realized that it would be futile. Then she thought about An Miaoyi's instructions to her before she left that if Ye Mingsheng asked, she should answer truthfully. She could no longer suppress her curiosity and asked Ye Mingsheng:
"How did you know?"

"What do you think?" Ye Mingsheng asked with a smile:
When Qiqige heard that Ye Mingsheng was going to keep things a secret, she turned around and said angrily:
“Forget it…”

"I can tell you, but you have to answer me a question!" Ye Mingsheng looked at Qiqige and said:
"Okay!" With An Miaoyi's permission, Qiqige nodded and agreed to Ye Mingsheng's request.

"When did your young lady notice me?" Ye Mingsheng narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice:
Since it is certain that Qiqige is An Miaoyi's person, Ye Mingsheng has many questions about this matter.

He really wanted to know why An Miaoyi, a lady from an aristocratic family, sent Qiqige to remind him and condescend to marry him. He and An Miaoyi had never met each other before and had never even met each other.

What was her purpose in marrying him?
Ye Mingsheng had a feeling that the eldest daughter of the An family was not as beautiful as he had imagined...

(Because some book friends said that there are too few updates, and I did say that I would update more frequently, so if nothing unexpected happens, there may be another chapter tonight, but it will probably be a little later!"
