After hearing the report, Zhou Qian frowned severely.
"These two dandy boys really have a lot going on. Where are they now?'
The servant said: "We have already returned to Ziling Pavilion. The eldest lady is making a fuss about hanging herself. Mr. Song and Mr. Ding each have their own opinions. Maybe they will fight."
Zhou Qian went to Ziling Pavilion with a depressed face. He heard crying and noise coming from a distance, and Zhou Qian walked in.
"What's going on?" He saw Ding Chengwei holding Song Yu'an's collar and waving his fist at his face, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
The fathers of these two people are powerful ministers that he wants to win over, so he naturally does not want the two families to fall apart. "I have met your lord, minister."
Seeing Prime Minister Zhou coming, the two of them did not dare to be presumptuous and bowed to greet him.
Zhou Qian glanced at them and saw that Song Yuan's face was obviously bruised and bruised by Ding Chengwei. He was also surprised. He beat someone else after playing with his fiancée? How does this make sense?
However, it is not advisable to jump to conclusions until the matter is clarified. Just as he was about to ask the two of them what was going on, Zhou Lenghui began to seek life and death inside the house.
"Let me go, don't stop me, let me die! Wuwuwu."
Zhou Qian's face darkened. Although he was not Zhou Lenghui's biological father at all, he still wanted to show off and walked into the house with his hands behind his back.
"Okay Hui'er, stop making trouble, what's going on? Tell dad, dad will make the decision for you.
Zhou Lenghui knew that it was a fake father, but at this moment, he needed this 'father' to make the decision, no matter whether it was real or fake.
So he cried and told the whole story from beginning to end about what happened when he went out to the city to appreciate the plum blossoms today.
She was so drunk that she didn't know what happened. She only knew that Ding Chengwei was lying next to her when she woke up.
But Ding Chengwei refused to admit it and said that Song Yu'an had plotted against him.
This matter was originally planned by Song Yu'an against Ding Chengwei. He deliberately sent people to intercept Ding Chengwei when he was returning to the city. He knocked Ding Chengwei unconscious and sent him to the guest room. After that, he pretended to come to catch him.
Naturally, it was impossible to recognize them, so the three conveniences became unclear.
After listening to Zhou Lenghui's narration, Zhou Qian called Ding Chengwei and Song Yu'an in.
"Everyone, come and sit down."
"Yes." Ding Chengwei and Song Yuan honestly sat down opposite Zhou Qian.
Zhou Qian's eyes first fell on Song Yu'an, "I don't care about anything else, I just want to ask you if you want to marry A Hui.
"Of course I am married." Song Yu'an was beaten with a bruised nose and face, and looked at Ding Chengwei angrily, "But Mr. Ding has played with my woman. If he doesn't make compensation, the Song Mansion will never let him go."
Ding Chengwei was so angry when he heard this.
"You, you, you, you fart, you wronged me, the person who played tricks on A Hui is clearly you, you dare to frame me and want to extort my money, right?'
Song Yu'an tugged at the corners of her lips and said, "Who wants to blackmail you? How much money will my Song family lose? Why don't we report it to the official?" As they spoke, the two started arguing again.
When Zhou Qian saw that the two were arguing, he turned his attention to Zhou Lenghui.
"Who is it? Do you still remember?"
Zhou Lenghui glanced at the two men and shook her head vigorously, "I don't know, I was drunk at the time~" Her face was still red at the moment, as if she was still drunk.
"Humph, our lady drank so much, it's embarrassing, not only her body, but also her body, right?" Zhou Qian scolded Zhou Lenghui, and then his eyes fell on Song Yu'an and Ding Chengwei.
"We are all our own people. Let's discuss this matter carefully. Mr. Ding, how about you pay some money to Mr. Song."
"Impossible!" Ding Chengwei was so angry that he almost slammed the table, "I told you, I haven't done that, why should I be asked to pay compensation?"
He was already angry enough that the woman he originally liked was given to someone else, but now he had to pay to the man who ruined the person he loved? Wouldn't he die of grief if he lost the money?
"If you don't pay the money, then I will be sent to the official position." Song Yu'an didn't intend to give up.
He originally just wanted to play with Zhou Lenghui and then dump her to get revenge on Zhou Lenghui, but when he came out of the room after doing the bad thing, he happened to see Ding Chengwei leaving on horseback through the window, so he quickly sent someone to intercept him.
During this time, he spent every day in the brothel drinking and drinking, but his money was a bit tight, so he suddenly decided to blackmail Ding Chengwei, and this happened.
Song Yu'an touched the wounds on her face and looked at 'Prime Minister Zhou' with grievance, "Young Master Ding has eaten and wiped everything and still doesn't admit it. There are so many witnesses in the inn and I can call a dozen of them at will. Prime Minister, you have to do something for me."
I call the shots."
Zhou Qian also lost his patience. The state affairs during this period were enough to give him a headache, and he really didn't want to worry about things like the Prime Minister's Mansion that had nothing to do with him.
He was too lazy to investigate the truth of this matter. He looked at Ding Chengwei and said: "Master Ding, you go back first. I will discuss this matter with Master Ding."
"Okay, Prime Minister, please report it to your father-in-law." After Ding Chengwei said this, he glanced at Zhou Lenghui, who was sitting aside and sobbing.
Zhou Lenghui also raised her head at this time, casting pleading eyes towards him.
Jiu Zui knew in her heart that she knew who carried her upstairs. The reason why she didn't say anything was because she hoped that Ding Chengwei would take the opportunity to propose to marry her.
However, when Ding Chengwei thought about Zhou Lenghui being with another man, he no longer wanted her.
That’s right, I’d rather lose money than lose it!
Thinking of this, Ding Chengwei gritted his teeth and left!
After Ding Chengwei left, Zhou Qian said to Song Yu'an, "You should go back too. As long as you are willing to marry A Hui, I will ask Master Ding to accompany you and give you fifty thousand taels of silver."
"Fifty thousand taels? A Hui's innocence is only worth 50,000 taels?" Song Yu'an muttered in a low voice. Seeing Zhou Qian's sharp eyes cast towards her, he added hurriedly, "That's all. After all, I really love A Hui and don't care about her.
This flaw." After saying that, he said goodbye and left.
Zhou Qian looked at Zhou Lenghui and warned, "Be safe, we are getting married in a month. Don't cause any more embarrassing things and disgrace the prime minister's office."
Zhou Lenghui cried even harder after hearing this. It seemed that she had no choice but to marry Song Yu'an.
Let's talk about Ding Chengwei. After returning to Ding Mansion, he went to find Ding Anhe dejectedly.
"Dad, my son was tricked today and may need to pay a sum of money."
Ding Anhe frowned, "Being plotted against? Who?"
"Song Yu'an, the son of Shangshu of the Song Dynasty." Ding Chengwei honestly told Ding Anhe what happened in Meiyuan today.
Ding Anhe listened happily and patted Ding Chengwei on the shoulder with joy.
"Oh, this is a great thing. Dad will go to the Prime Minister's Mansion right away to arrange the marriage between you and Miss Zhou."
"What?" Ding Chengwei looked puzzled, "There are so many women in the world. Dad wants me to marry an unclean woman? No way."
"What's not possible?" Ding He'an said with a smile, "Miss Zhou is the best witness against 'Prime Minister Zhou'. She has to be the one to bring down 'Prime Minister Zhou'~~ Let's go to the Prime Minister's Mansion with dad."
Let’s go and get married.”
It is precisely because of this calculation that Ding Anhe has always turned a blind eye to the affair between Ding Chengwei and Zhou Lenghui. Now that he has the opportunity to turn this powerful witness into his daughter-in-law, why not?
