Chapter 5
Chapter 5 — Duyen Tan Truong Dinh
Sach An bowed his head and said nothing. Seeing that he was really upset, I continued to comfort him: "There is no perfect person in this world, your father is a good person. Even though he hated me, he was still willing to come and save me." "Don't stay away from him because of this. I don't resent him anymore, you don't resent him either." I sincerely advise peace, after all I still hope that Sach An will inherit all the good things of the general's palace. Sach An let out a long breath: "That's it, it's just a concubine." "You must tell father to marry Lam Chi Ly soon, don't cause a bigger joke, we will lose face if we harm our mother." I nodded repeatedly: "This is true, quickly write a letter." Seven days later, Sach An received a reply from Tieu Kinh Hanh. Tieu Kinh Hanh said he had finished watching Lam Chi Ly's marriage. Sach An read the letter and was angry: "For Lam Chi Ly to marry the northern Ly family to be his son's wife, is she worthy? Tieu Kinh Hanh must have promised benefits to the Ly family." "Oh, there are also eighteen chests of wedding items, taken from his private treasury. This old man really hurt her heart." The more I listened, the more I frowned: "When will we get married?" “Three days after the convocation ceremony.” I clicked my fingers and calculated: "It probably won't be enough in such a hurry." Sach An tightened his grip on the letter: "Unless father has long thought about telling Lam Chi Ly about the marriage." After he finished speaking, he looked at me with a hidden expectation. Children are still children after all, they always hope that their parents can be together. But I am no longer swayed by Tieu Kinh Hanh's fluctuations. We just feel uneasy inside, always feeling like something is about to happen. Sure enough, the day Tieu Kinh Hanh met me, something happened. 08 His Majesty specially sent someone to invite me to return to the capital and cooperate in investigating the case. The official in charge of coming to pick me up is a person who likes to talk openly. He told the story of Tieu Kinh Hanh accepting concubines, as if he were also present there: "That To Uyen has already knelt down wearing a blue shirt, as long as the general drinks tea and calls him to stand up, this ceremony will be considered successful." "Oh my, the prisoner held a sharp knife, about a meter long, and directly stabbed To Uyen to death." "You guess who the prisoner is, you absolutely can't think of it." I glanced at him and deliberately said: "Lam Chi Ly, her daughter." The official patted his thigh, his eyes flashing: "Mrs. Tieu guessed right, did you know early on that there was animosity between their mother and daughter?" I tugged at the corner of my mouth: "I know, I also knew they were causing such chaos because of a man." “So you avoided coming to Xuong Chau to sit on the mountain and fight tigers?” The clay statue was also angered by his words. I said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't Tieu Kinh Hanh tell you that he and I have signed a separation letter, just haven't sent it to the palace yet?" The official was surprised: "This really doesn't exist." "He said that before, he intended to marry Lam Chi Ly as his wife, and had been too intimate with Lam Chi Ly." I could hardly hide my sarcasm: "He didn't say anything about being drugged." “Please do your best to investigate, this case is completely murder.” Wait until I get to the capital, the case will already be tried. Officials from all around listened and then ran to tell me: "Tieu Kinh Hanh suddenly wrote a chapter for His Majesty, admitting that he was the one who seduced the widow, causing bitter consequences." “He told your majesty that all sins are his responsibility.” "Tieu Kinh Hanh was punished and demoted, Lam Chi Ly was also sentenced to exile three thousand miles." I was stunned, turned around and ran back to the general's palace. The servants are busy removing the sign, and there are other structures that violate regulations. Seeing me, their eyes turned red: "Madam, you have finally returned." I smiled awkwardly twice and asked them: "Where is Tieu Kinh Hanh?" The butler quickly ran out and led me back into the palace, his voice filled with a pleading voice: "You're not here, everything up and down in the palace is in chaos, and the general doesn't care." "Look, the trees in the garden have also died and lost two roots." I don't answer. When I entered the main courtyard and saw Tieu Kinh Hanh looking haggard and haggard, I still couldn't help but stop. When Tieu Kinh Hanh saw me, he first tilted his head to avoid it, then tried to act calmly and said: "You're here, when did you come?" I have no heart
I slowly reviewed the story, only warning him: "You are Sach An's father, more than two hundred people in this palace are counting on you, do you still want to do random things?" Tieu Kinh Hanh moved his lips, but in the end he still said nothing. I turned around and left. Sach An hurriedly ran over and said excitedly: "Mother, I knew someone would come. There's no need for anyone in this palace, but it's impossible not to have anyone." I smiled and told Van Nguyet and everyone to stay and help handle the matter for three days. Sach An still wants to say more. I gently glanced at it. Sach An shrank his neck and did not dare to speak anymore. Three days later, Van Nguyet and the girls returned, Tieu Kinh Hanh also followed. I thought Tieu Kinh Hanh came to say thank you, but I didn't expect him to repay kindness with resentment. Looking at the phoenix official on the table, I was almost so angry that I burst out laughing: "Tieu Kinh Hanh, what do you mean, ask to make peace with me, or ask to marry me?" Tieu Kinh Hanh said nothing, his fingers trembled slightly, and persistently pushed the phoenix mandarin in front of me.
