Xiao Lie also heard those young masters discussing privately, saying: "The young princess has a high status. When the future crown prince succeeds to the throne, she will be the eldest princess. Young masters who are willing to marry into the royal family can still take the initiative to propose marriage."
"But, with her personality, who can stand up to her? With her fighting power, who can withstand a beating?"
"If I marry Meng Ling'er, I won't be marrying a wife, but an ancestor."
"If Meng Ling'er is crowned a princess in the future, the future of the prince consort won't be so good."
Xiao Lie was worried that Meng Ling'er would not be able to get married in the future, so he kindly offered to cover for her. If no one wanted to marry her, he would marry her.
Since Ling'er doesn't want to marry him, he would feel more comfortable being Ling'er's cousin's brother and best friend.
Xiao Lie had no regrets, but was worried about his cousin Ling'er's future marriage.
He was thinking about whether he should ask his mother, the matchmaker lady from the Marquis' Mansion, to help find a good husband for his cousin Ling'er?
A prince of a marquisate who cares about love between men and women is worried about Meng Linger's marriage, let alone Meng Linger's grandparents, her grandparents-in-law, and especially her father and mother?
Although Meng Ling'er was the most beautiful girl at the flower viewing banquet, her talents were too special, either sword dancing or magic, which frightened the ladies in the audience and made them swear never to go against Meng Ling'er again.
Although the young masters could not take their eyes off Meng Ling'er who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, they were really frightened when they saw the sword dance with cold light and the magic that could easily lift a huge stone weighing hundreds of pounds.
Meng Ling'er was not only favored, but no one dared to provoke her. Even if she only relied on her own fighting skills, there were few children from aristocratic families in the capital who could defeat her.
However, besides Xiao Lie, there was someone truly worthy of Meng Ling'er. It was Xiao Yan, the unmarried god of war who had murdered five of his fiancées. He was also Xiao Lie's cousin.
This man looks very heroic. He is strict with his subordinates but also truly cares for them. He definitely has a very good reputation.
However, when Xiao Lie heard his mother mention matchmaking for his cousin and Meng Ling'er, he was the first to disagree. He shook his head like a rattle:
"No, no, absolutely not. For the sake of my cousin Ling'er's health and longevity, she cannot be engaged to my cousin.
Mother, my cousin has killed five of his fiancées. How could you introduce my cousin to that unlucky guy?
As soon as Xiao Lie finished speaking, his mother slapped him on the arm and scolded him:
"Don't say that about your cousin. Yan'er just had a bad fate. All five of his fiancées died suddenly before he even met them, yet he still carries the stigma of being a wife-killer. It's really unfair."
Xiao Lie heard the hidden meaning and asked:
"Mother, is there a hidden story behind my cousin's reputation as a wife-killer?"
The Marquis's wife sighed and whispered her inner speculation: "Lie'er, you were young before and didn't care about the struggles in the harem. Now you are an adult, and I will let you understand a little bit.
Although men do not take care of the affairs of the inner house, they must understand them.
As you said, there is indeed a story behind it. It's quite strange, your cousin went off to war with his uncle at the age of thirteen. His mother died young, and his marriage was arranged by his virtuous stepmother.
However, every fiancée that your current aunt Qian arranged for Yan'er died within half a year of the engagement. This is really weird.
However, I heard from your father that Qian deliberately chose a woman who was born prematurely and was weak to be your cousin's fiancée.
The purpose is to prevent your cousin from having direct descendants. In this way, the heirs of their family will become his sons and grandsons.
Moreover, in order to ruin your cousin's reputation, the Qian family did not allow decent girls to marry your cousin, so they chose girls who were extremely weak.
These women were already in poor health, and after drinking the tonic Qian sent them, which was laced with chronic poison, they all died within six months."
Xiao Lie couldn't believe it. It was extremely vicious of Qian to choose a weak woman as her cousin's fiancée.
He even gave these women a slow-acting poison, causing them to end their young lives even earlier. This is truly a demon hiding in the harem. We can't just let it go.
Xiao Lie decided to look for Meng Ling'er, although he still didn't want to take the risk of Ling'er marrying his cousin.
However, we cannot allow Qian to continue to harm others.
Xiao Lie has many friends, but they are all reckless men who wield swords and guns. Ling'er is the most suitable person who can investigate this kind of case without anyone noticing and collect a lot of evidence.
Xiao Lie told his mother, "Don't interfere with Ling'er's marriage for now. I'll take care of my cousin's affairs. He will definitely not let that vicious woman Qian go."
The Marquis' wife was afraid that her son would do something foolish in the heat of the moment, so she warned him:
"Lie'er, don't be impulsive. Everything depends on evidence. And even if you find evidence, you must hand it over to the authorities for investigation. You can't punish that vicious woman Qian Shi on your own."
Xiao Lie patted his chest and promised! "Don't worry, mother, I'm grown up now and I know how to do things in moderation.
I will go to Ling'er to find a solution now. And the one helping Ling'er now is her great-uncle master, Yun Yisanren.
He's a god-like figure, so these little things shouldn't be a problem for him, don't worry, mother."
Xiao Lie was a man of action, and soon he found Meng Ling'er practicing martial arts in the Taoist temple.
Yunye Sanren, who was meditating on a tree trunk and watching his disciples practicing, saw a handsome young man with an imposing demeanor walk into the Taoist temple. He looked at Ling'er and called Meng Ling'er in a low voice:
"Ling'er, Ling'er, open your eyes quickly, I need your help with something important."
Meng Ling'er opened her eyes and whispered to him, "Cousin, please wait a moment. I need to ask my uncle for leave."
Yun Yi Sanren's voice rang out at this moment: "Ling'er, calm your mind. We'll see you again after you've finished practicing this set of oral techniques."
