Chapter 2450: Chapter 2450: Owing a Favor (2)
The Guan couple didn’t sleep all night.
Guan Qingyue was even worse; she had been muddled all along, and every time she closed her eyes, she saw Diewu’s killing.
Guan Danian set off at dawn, first heading to the town to rent a carriage and rushing to the Prefectural City, not considering at all whether to save money or not.
Without taking a moment’s rest, he arrived at the Prefectural City almost by noon but didn’t bother to eat and went straight to the academy.
Guan Qingshu didn’t expect Guan Danian to come again after only a day: "Has something happened?"
At this point, Guan Danian couldn’t hide the matter and explained everything: "Qingshu, do you think Yang Dani is really that formidable?" In fact, he was secretly hoping that it wasn’t true.
"Ha ha." Guan Qingshu’s face turned ashen immediately, "Dad, do you think she’d joke about such a matter?"
"But..."
"Let me put it this way, the Governor of our Changhuai State is at the same level as her, but if you really think about it, the Governor would still have to bow to her."
Guan Danian was completely disillusioned: "Then what should we do?"
"Since she didn’t directly execute Guan Qingyue, it means she still spared us some face. Otherwise, my political career would have ended here, not to mention going to Beijing." Guan Qingshu smiled bitterly, "If there was really a murderous sister, Elder Wang would never accept me as a student... Enough, I’ll ask the teacher for leave now."
Guan Danian could only sigh, feeling even more resentful towards his daughter.
Father and son rushed hastily, filling their stomachs with a couple of buns, but when they arrived at the village, the sun had already shifted westward.
"Dad, this matter cannot be delayed, I will immediately seek an audience with Yang Ruxin, you go bring Qingyue."
Throughout the journey, Guan Qingshu explained Yang Ruxin’s identity in detail to Guan Danian, only then did he realize, Yang Ruxin was an official who could attend court. Although it’s rare for women to attend court, it was not unheard of; there was a female emperor in the Tang Dynasty, and there were female officials in previous dynasties, but Yang Ruxin was the first one in the current dynasty.
The sporadic hope he felt before was now completely gone.
Yang Family.
"Sit down." Yang Ruxin gestured to Guan Qingshu.
"Xinxin." Guan Qingshu sighed, "I didn’t expect Guan Qingyue to be so bold."
"I didn’t expect it either." Yang Ruxin raised her eyebrows slightly, "She crossed my line and endangered my family."
"I know." Guan Qingshu nodded, "My Guan Family owes you, and I will repay this debt within my lifetime."
Yang Ruxin smiled, that was precisely what she wanted. Guan Qingshu was capable, and after going through so much, he was boundless in his potential; she did not want to become his political enemy.
"Early next month, the transport team sets out for Beijing."
Guan Qingshu was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "I will stay at home these days."
Soon, everyone arrived, and the village head and Lizheng warned the Guan Family to educate their daughter properly, next time they would report to the authorities and even expel them from the village.
As Guan Qingshu was a Jieyuan, the village head and Lizheng didn’t want to offend him, but they had to give a warning.
Thus, the matter passed, how the Guan Family educated Guan Qingyue, that was their own business.
"Village Head Sir." Yang Ruxin called Yang Mancang, "If you have time, still keep an eye on Mage’s family."
