Chapter 1218 - 282: The Secret of Death
Marquis Yongchang, Luo Zhen, encountered trouble and was on the brink of death, the entire Marquis Mansion Yongchang felt as if the sky had fallen in an instant.
An Liefeng had them send someone to bring Luo Zhen back to the capital for treatment, bringing a physician along.
At this moment, Lady Mo no longer had the energy to seek out Pei Qin. Even if Luo Zhen survived, his title would pass to another brother, and their branch would no longer be the masters of Marquis Mansion Yongchang! If something were to happen to Luo Zhen, she... would become a widow!
Meanwhile, the Pei Residence was lively with music and the beat of drums.
Pei Wendong, dressed in bright red wedding clothes, rode a tall horse to Anping Prince Mansion to welcome his bride.
Happy sat in the sedan chair as the child leading the procession. Chang Yonglin, Xiao Yong, Fang Liuming, and Zhao Xiaochen all changed into festive attire to join the entourage.
Pei Wendong and Chang Yonglin, one had attained the title of valedictorian, and the other Tanhua; even the chancellors who were examiners at the court witnessed their scholarship. Yet those who failed the exam were still resentful and instigated, slandering both men by saying they could only excel due to Pei Qin and Mo Heng.
Princess Anping did not want her beloved daughter to be dragged into this slander. Seeing that Pei Wendong was a son-in-law of the Wang Mansion, she also wanted to prove to those people. So she found knowledgeable people from her maiden family early on to set up a challenge for Pei Wendong.
