Tong Xiaoye also arrived in Kyoto the day before the wedding. She was ill but just recovered and her face was still slightly pale, so she arrived in Kyoto not much earlier than Tong Huaan.
As soon as he entered the gate of General Tong's Mansion, Tong Xiaoye immediately felt that something was wrong. All the servants lowered their heads and looked nervous and flustered.
"What happened?" Tong Ke was a little surprised and asked the servant guarding the door.
The servant hesitated for a long time before murmuring: "The master has found out that the two concubines of the eldest master have committed adultery, and they have been tied up."
Tong Ke didn't understand. He looked at the trembling slave and gritted his teeth, but didn't say a word for a long time.
Adultery?! The eldest young master, isn’t he his own son Hua An?! And the two concubines are married to each other?! What’s going on?
"This is not unlucky at all." Tong's wife muttered and glanced at Tong Xiaoye, who was still a little depressed. Her illness came on quickly and recovered slowly this time, and her little face was still so pale that it was almost bloodless due to the bumps along the way.
Before entering the hall, I heard the angry voice of General Tong, who almost wanted to tear off the roof. His angry words also contained some vulgar words, which sounded very harsh.
"Come here, chop it up for me immediately!" The last sentence was almost hoarse.
Tong Ke didn't dare to think too much and walked in in a few steps. Kneeling on the ground were two shivering women with disheveled hair and a miserable appearance.
"Dad, what is going on?" Tong Ke stared at General Tong in surprise, his face turned green with anger, and his beard trembled with anger.
"What's going on?! What do you think is going on?!" General Tong was so angry that he couldn't say anything. He stared at Tong Ke with such an expression that if Tong Ke asked one more question, he might directly kill Tong Ke.
Chop it!, "You ask me, who am I asking!"
Tong's wife immediately tugged at the corner of Tong Ke's clothes and signaled him not to talk too much. General Tong had a hot temper and could only obey without choking.
At this moment, I heard a servant coming in from outside, and said cautiously: "Master, Prince Xuan is here. He said that you have something to ask him to come over."
"Let him in!" Old General Tong said angrily, suppressing his anger.
Tong Xiaoye's mind went blank. The unexpected wind chill almost killed her. She suddenly developed a high fever, which persisted for three days. The fever made her dizzy and dizzy for three days. The bumpy road made her want to vomit.
I came out depressed.
When the servant who came in said that Prince Xuan was here, Xuan Qingmu's immediate reaction was that she was about to turn around and salute according to the rules. She turned around a little too quickly, and her vision went dark, and then stars appeared randomly, making her immediately want to stand still.
But if your feet are not stable, you will fall to the ground.
Suddenly, a slightly cold hand caught her in time, and she bumped into someone.
"What's wrong, you are so anxious to marry me." A somewhat teasing voice whispered in her ear, and then he supported her steadily.
Staring at Xuan Jinmo, Tong Xiaoye didn't react for a long time, and then he frowned and said in a nasal voice: "I was really confused. I only heard the word "Prince Xuan" and thought he was uncle.
I wanted to give him a gift, but then I remembered that you are also a prince now."
Xuan Jinmo looked at the pale Tong Xiaoye, frowning slightly, "Why do you look like this?"
"Xiaoye had a cold before and had been lying down for three days. She just felt better now. She came back in a hurry. The carriage was bumpy on the road. She was afraid she felt uncomfortable again." Tong's wife immediately stepped forward to help Tong Xiaoye.
When people are not married yet and there are outsiders at this time, it is always not good to fight.
"In this way -" Xuan Jin thought for a while, "then you sit down and rest for a while."
After saying that, he saluted the angry-looking General Tong and said with a smile: "General Tong, why do you want to see Jin Mo?"
"Have you found that bastard?" General Tong asked loudly.
Xuan Jin silently shook his head, "At that time, things happened suddenly. He had already run away. I am afraid he is a charlatan. There was no valuables found in his house. Although he was a businessman, he did not have any property in Kyoto.
We only went to Xiluan Pavilion and other fireworks places, and there were no familiar people."
"What happened?" Tong Ke asked Xuan Jinmo softly.
Xuan Jinmo hesitated for a moment, first looked at the angry General Tong, and then at Jiang Xiuping and Lu Xiaoli, who had been kneeling on the ground and trembling. He pondered for a moment and said softly: "It's not clear yet that these two people were injured.
Dao, it was indeed adultery as everyone suspected. A few days ago, when someone went out in the morning, they found a disheveled man coming out of Tongjia Villa. So some remarks reached the ears of General Tong, who sent a reliable officer to the government.
My servant went to check and got stuck in a traffic jam yesterday, but there was so much chaos that the man took advantage of the chaos and escaped."
Tong Ke stared at Jiang Xiuping and Lu Xiaoli on the ground, speechless for a long time.
"However, it is not yet certain whether this was done intentionally or -" Xuan Jinmo said cautiously, "It stands to reason that the two concubines of Cousin Hua'an have always been very peaceful. If such an accident occurs suddenly, it is inevitable that there will be
He was suspected of being framed, but—"
Xuan Jinmo did not continue speaking, his expression was a bit awkward.
"Jin Mo, find that bastard for me immediately. I will chop him into pieces! Chop him into pieces and feed them to the dogs!" General Tong said angrily, "These two bitches have done such a disgraceful thing.
, death is not a pity.”
"General Tong." Xuan Jinmo said immediately, "Until the matter is clarified, it is better to be cautious and give Jinmo some time."
General Tong said indifferently: "These two bitches, it is really easy for them to kill them so easily. If they come, they will be put in a dungeon and starved for three days. No food or water is allowed, and no one is allowed to visit them for three days."
We’ll talk about the rest later.”
The minions dragged Jiang Xiuping and Lu Xiaoli away, who were already so frightened that they didn't know what to do.
Tong Ke immediately changed the subject, tried his best to smile and asked: "By the way, Jin Mo, why is your marriage to Xiaoye scheduled in such a hurry and making us so busy?"
"It's not that Princess Tianxiang!" General Tong waved his hand to make the minions retreat, and said angrily, "That unruly princess heard that Jin Mo was going to marry Xiaoye, and she was determined to divorce her and marry the consort.
Give it to Jin Mo. At that time, Jin Mo and I were discussing things with the emperor in the back garden. Angrily, I said it was too late. Jin Mo was going to marry Xiao Ye in a few days, so that was it. It didn’t matter anyway. I had already paid for the dowry.
The preparations for Xiaoye are complete, and as for Jin Mo, they are almost ready."
Xuan Jinmo just smiled slightly and didn't say much.
Tong Ke hummed, but didn't know how to continue. In the midst of embarrassment, he heard someone outside shouting loudly: "Master, the eldest young master and young lady are back."
