The Marquis Is Innocent

Chapter 110.2

The reason why she did not want Wei Shao to do such a thing was quite complex. Part of it may be Chen Rui. Although she did loathe the man when he was still alive, he was already dead, and she felt a little excessive to treat him like this. Another part was because of Wei Shao. She didnt want to burden him with a reputation for slaughtering corpses because of her. After all, this was not a good reputation, no matter what era. In the final part, perhaps in her consciousness, she did not fail to associate this with Wei Shaos hatred toward her Qiao family.

She knew Wei Shaos hatred for Chen Rui was naturally far from his hatred for the Qiao family, but if Wei Shao was willing to let Chen Rui go because of her, did this mean that she could also expect that one day Wei Shao would also let go of his hatred for the Qiao family because of her existence?

He finally did make this response that she was expecting to see.

Xiao Qiao was relieved and felt happy. And also grateful. She tilted her face, stretched her arm to hook his neck, and softly said: Husband, you are very nice.

Wei Shao grinned. Thud, he threw off the boot on the other foot and embraced her to lie down together.

Go to sleep. Im not going out. He said.

A few days later, Mr. Jia finally met Wei Shao to ask for a follow-up. That night, he hurriedly brought people to dig three feet into the ground overnight and then sent people to watch over the excavated stuff. But after waiting left and right, he never received a follow-up from the Marquis.

After waiting so many days, he really could not wait and asked the Marquis.

You dug him out? Bury him back.

Wei Shao seemed to have just remembered and replied casually.

Wei Shao stayed in Jinyang for only five or six days before he received news from Xihe County. Feng Zhao had gathered his men again and was approaching Shang County.

On the day when Gongsun Yang and Yuan Wang took a blood oath, and the people of Beihe sang and danced, the messenger who came to deliver the letter, Diao Mo, felt disinterested and left quietly when no one was looking.

Diao Mo did not give up and personally came to see Yuan Wang with a generous gift to the Beihe territory. He apologized to him for what he had done that day and then tried to persuade him to join forces with him. Even if Yuan Wang did not send troops, he should not attach to the Han Chinese.

Yuan Wang was open-minded and never good at war. The older he got, the more he thought about stability. Moreover, when Yuan Wang learned from Yuan that Diao Mo had done something to him, how could he still nod his head? He didnt even bother to show up and asked Diao Mo to return with the gift on the pretext of illness.

Diao Mo continued to persuade the rest of the Qiang tribe to join him. However, since the Beihe tribe had joined Wei Shao, the rest of the tribes were also moved by Wei Shaos treaty. But, he was not discouraged. After returning, he strengthened his troops and determined to wait for the opportunity to attack.

Another inevitably big war was coming.

Xihe County was a place of war, so it was inconvenient for Xiao Qiao to come with him. After Wei Shao and her parted, he went back to Xihe County.

This farewell lasted for three months.

In July, Xiao Qiao received a letter from Wei Shao. In the letter, he told her he had won the battle of Anding County half a month ago, in which Feng Zhao was defeated and lost Liangzhou completely.

The Shaodang tribe continued to resist, but it was not enough to make him worry. He reckoned he would soon be able to end the battle and return to Jinyang.

I am thinking of you, and last night you came into my dream again. But I wonder who is the gentleman in your dream? At the end of his letter, he said this in a half-flirtatious, half-sour tone.

Xiao Qiao read the letter several times, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up. She sat alone in front of the window and wrote a letter back to him.

Halfway through the letter, suddenly Chun Niang hurried in from outside, looking grave, and whispered in her ear, Lady, guess who has come to Jinyang?

Xiao Qiao looked at her and saw Chun Niangs disgusted expression as if she saw something unclean. She laughed while saying. People come in and out of Jinyang frequently. Who is it that makes Chun Niang so unhappy?

Chun Niang hummed and said: Who else would it be? The wife of the deceased Zuo Feng Yi, Miss Su! She came to Jinyang uninvited!

Xiao Qiao slowly put down her pen.

The long-absent Su EHuang had come to Jinyang.

Originally, Xiao Qiao had not thought of this woman for some time. But at this moment, with her sudden arrival, many memories of this woman and her current husband, Wei Shao, from her previous life came back to her like a lightning lamp.

It was not surprising that she came to Jinyang without any difficulties. If she had left Youzhou and returned to Zhongshan after the previous Luli Conference, she would have been relatively safe in Wei Shaos territory from Zhongshan to Jinyang.

Moreover, she could not have traveled alone.

As for her purpose, Xiao Qiao knew without guessing that it must be for Wei Shao.

When did she come? Where does she live now? Xiao Qiao was lost in thought for a moment and asked.

She arrived yesterday. She is staying at the post house with a lot of maids. Chun Niang said in a disgusted tone.
