“As a descendant of a large influential family, to actually have such an infatuated person as yourself, nearly thirty years, yet still unable to put down.” Don’t know whether one should lament, or ridicule.
For descendants of large influential families, having a crowd of wives and concubines, having a pile of children, that was the norm. This kind of person, for the sake of one woman, never mind never marrying for life, to not even have a bed-warming servant girl by the side, that was outlandish and weird, a target of ridicule. Many people will be disappointed, and many people will say with him being immersed in romance, he’s not like a man. But standing from the perspective of a woman, how many people just follow along and agree with their mouth, but on the inside, bitter and jealous? Bitter because they were unable to encounter this kind of wholeheartedly devoted man, and jealous because of the woman in his heart.
Shortly after, she ordered the servants to properly look after, and after the person recovers, notify her first thing.
Human curiosity wasn’t that easy to erase. Sometimes, the more one blocked, the more people will want to know. This bunch of Min clan youngsters secretly just wanted to look for the truth.
However, this matter clearly had something to do with Jin Qinwang, but what matters can be connected with Jin Qinwang?
Speaking of which, the people of the world all loved their imagination, imagining a great drama of love and hate.
Everything else side, regarding the reason why Min Yu Han continuously never married, they still for the most part were aware. All say his fiancee, the Pei clan daughter, not long prior to the wedding, succumbed to sudden illness and passed away. Towards his fiancee, he had deep feelings, so the impact of the other party’s death, towards him, was very big. He once for a time stumbled and was unable to rise again, and after several years, finally recuperated slightly. Even so, it was still traveling around outside all year round.
It’s said that the Pei clan daughter back in the day was once Jiangnan’s publicly known number one beauty. Even the current Pei Xiu Ying all somewhat fell short.
“If I have to say, perhaps tang great-uncle’s fiancee simply didn’t die, but rather got stolen by his Majesty. We all know the Pei clan’s relationship with the Li imperial family. For the sake of the clan’s reputation, they thus announced to the outside that it was dying from a sudden illness. Encountering this kind of thing, didn’t everyone all handle it like this? Perhaps Jin Qinwang is precisely that fiancee’s child, and even the kind that looks very similar, and thus would, because of one meeting, just suffer such a great shock.” The girl previously addressed as Yuan Yuan by Pei Xiu Ying said, pretending to be serious.
The others all looked to one another from hearing, this, practically just nonsense, but they also felt this seemingly was very reasonable.
Unbeknownst to them, this imagined scenario was already pretty close to the truth.
“On the returning boat, met Jin Qinwang once. Although just a quick glimpse, but thinking back to it now, increasingly feel his appearance is quite similar to the main family of the Pei clan.”
The others all didn’t know what to say, “Yuan Yuan, some words can’t be recklessly said. If outsiders were to hear…………..”
“I’m just saying at home, so how can outsiders hear?” She inadvertently glanced at the old madam coming out from the inner room, and seeing the other party silent with a serious expression, she immediately giddily went forward, coiling around her arm, “Third great-aunt, is my guess right?” She then coquettishly swayed.
The old madam reached out and poked her forehead, “You ah, don’t blindly think about this and that all day long when there’s nothing to do. Although at home, still need to guard against the unexpected. For many things, it’s all disaster coming from the mouth. ——-Yuan Yuan’s words, just listen and be over with, don’t take it out to make reckless comment. Alright, all of you scatter.”
Everyone once again looked to one another in dismay. Can’t be that it really got guessed correctly by Yuan Yuan? Wouldn’t that be too…………..
While the others were still in a state of disbelief, that Miss Yuan Yuan’s older brother uncontrollably started getting excited inside. If this is really true, then in terms of family hierarchy, Xiu Ying is Jin Qinwang’s biao niece. He, a dignified qinwang, what kind of beauty can’t he get, so won’t really be so shameless as to take his own biao niece by force. Even if he doesn’t want face, the Pei clan still want face, and absolutely won’t allow this kind of thing to happen.

How would he know that the reality was the exact opposite of what he thought.
Miss Yuan Yuan, towards her own older brother, can be said to understand to the extreme, especially on big sister Xiu Ying’s matter. Just glancing at that expression of his, she just knew what he was thinking, secretly rolling her eyes. Even if there’s no Jin Qinwang, it still wouldn’t be your turn. However, she was also very clear, don’t look at how her older brother held deep feelings towards big sister Xiu Ying, greatly having the stance of not marrying anyone but her. But, even if in the end, big sister Xiu Ying marries someone else, he at most would just be depressed for a period of time, and absolutely won’t be to that tang great-uncle’s kind of degree, and further won’t never marry for life, not having a single person by his side————-His tongfang servant girls right now were already more than three. This older brother of hers, inherently was also just the same as the other young masters of large influential families.
Min Yu Han didn’t stay unconscious for too long either, just for half a day’s time before waking up again. Him losing consciousness was real, and the reason for losing consciousness was also real, just he didn’t have to be like this, yet he didn’t restrain his emotions, instead repeatedly thought of those things that made him suffer and hate the most, having the negative emotions limitlessly magnified, bringing about this final result.
After waking up, his entire person seemingly appeared not too different from before. However, the people close with him clearly sensed that he was even more taciturn, and also even more detached.
This was an illness of the heart. As the saying goes, a heart illness required heart medicine to cure, but this heart medicine was long gone. As such, no one was able to find a way out.
Min Yu Han rested for two days, afterwards letting someone pack up the things. He was going to go to the Pei clan main residence. Precisely speaking, it was going to go meet with the Pei clan leader.
For the Min clan and the Pei clan, their old residence were all in the county seat, and not in the fu, their residence practically occupying more than half of the entire county seat’s area. But in reality, the people of other surnames also weren’t any less than in other county seats. From this, one can gather that the county seat their old residence resided in, its area was at least more than double that of ordinary county seats’, the degree of prosperity not inferior to a prefectural capital, yet also even more peaceful and harmonious, neat and orderly. And it should be given that in such a place, the county magistrate and whatnot, that was just a decoration. Never mind the county seat, should say that within a very large area of the entire county, that was all their family’s private property. If something happens, that was all their family’s domestic affair, their private matter.
The Pei clan and the Min clan separately belonged to two prefectures. However, the distance they were separated by wasn’t considered far. Between the two families a wide and smooth path was even specially set up.
From Chuanzhou Fu to the Min clan’s main residence, it was nothing more than three four hundred li. Then, changing route to head towards the Pei clan main residence, it was far more convenient and quicker than taking the ordinary route.
In other words, if Min Yu Han wants to go to the Pei clan main residence, he’ll have to go home first.
This time, going to the Pei clan main residence, perhaps it’ll be becoming enemies. However, so what, he simply didn’t care.
What Min Yu Han wanted to do, aside from himself, no one else knew. If Li Hong Yuan knew, he would probably still be unconcerned. In his eyes, it was purely doing more than necessary.
