After Princess Xuanxue came down from the mountain, the whole capital was in chaos.

Chapter 247 Death in childbirth
Xiangli Youming got the Red Spirit Fruit and took one pill every day. As expected, his cultivation speed was much faster. He went from the fifth level of Qi Refining to the sixth level of Qi Refining in just one year.

Yuan Qi was very considerate and gave some to him when he finished eating the red spirit fruit.

When Xiangli Youming got something good, he sent it to Yuan Qi as soon as possible.

On this day, Yuan Qi got some good things from Huang Zhong again, and was about to send some to Xiang Li Youming, when Jiang Jiulu came in with his skirt in hand, with an interesting look on his face.

"Seventh sister, Li Jiaojiao died in childbirth." Jiang Jiulu looked at Yuan Qi with a mixture of excitement and sadness on her face. She asked angrily, "Have you figured it out a long time ago?"

Yuan Qi asked Lu Zhu to put away all the things Huang Zhong gave her, and then asked her to sit down: "I have seen it a long time ago. You only need to wait another year to have a chance..."

Jiang Jiulu smiled: "You mean I still have a chance to marry the Sixth Young Master, right?"

Yuan Qi said: "Wait patiently, don't let others see that you are happy. Has the Sixth Young Master got a daughter?"

Jiang Jiulu hummed: "I have been sending people to pay attention to the movements of the Sixth Young Master. After the Sixth Young Master and Li Jiaojiao got married, Qin Se and Ming became very close. The Bai family was also very good to Li Jiaojiao and took care of her when she was pregnant. She was very good. But she was unlucky and had a difficult delivery with severe bleeding. An experienced imperial doctor used medicine to forcefully induce labor when Li Jiaojiao was dying, and the child was saved."

Jiang Jiulu had already given up hope on Bai Fujun. She subconsciously believed that Bai Fujun would be in love with Li Jiaojiao for the rest of their lives. Even if it was a concubine, the Jiang Mansion would not allow her daughter to be a concubine.

Although Bai Fujun had to observe mourning for Li Jiaojiao for one year, Jiang Jiulu decided to wait for him for one year.

Yuan Qi picked up the small cloth bag and walked outside. She would set up a stall as usual today.

"The director of Dali Temple, responsible for investigating and reviewing cases." Bai Youhui was very happy, "For a sixth-grade man, although his official position is a bit low, it is already good to have an errand."

Bai Youhui stood up obediently and walked around in front of Yuan Qi, looking quite proud: "How about my new official robe, isn't it majestic?"

Yuan Qi admired Bai Youhui very much: "Did your grandfather find a job for you?"

"Congratulations, got the job?" Yuan Qi pushed him and asked him to sit aside.

Jiang Jiulu was already mentally prepared for the possibility that there might be some other marriage waiting for her. She also knew that there were many good men in the world, and maybe she could meet someone better than the Sixth Young Master.

Yuan Qi smiled and hummed: "That's good. Where is the errand?"

I didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly.

As soon as she arrived under the big locust tree, Yuan Qi found Bai Youhui sitting on her small stool wearing a navy blue official robe.

Bai Yougui didn't hide it, and didn't think it was a shameful thing. He explained: "The current Minister of Dali Temple is my grandfather's disciple. My grandfather just said a word. But I also have real abilities." , I have learned a lot from you in the past two years. Although I have not officially become a disciple, I am almost like a master and apprentice. Lord He, the Minister of Dali Temple, also accepted me because he saw that I knew some magical things. It’s suitable for Dali Temple. Speaking of which, I entered Dali Temple on my own merit.”

Yuan Qi nodded and looked at him again, and found two men wearing Dali Temple yamen uniforms waiting for him not far away: "Are you going to investigate the case today?"

Bai Yougui was very proud: "Yes, many babies have been lost in the south of the city in the past year, and many strange things have happened. The following people could not solve the case, so they reported it to the police. Mr. He asked me to go and have a look." Qi hummed and looked at him with admiration: "I think you can do it. By the way, how are you, Mr. Six?"

Bai Youhui was about to leave, but now he sat down again: "It's okay, just like that, Li Jiaojiao is dead. In fact, I have long seen that Li Jiaojiao is angry, and I dare not say it, for fear that they will beat me. I see The sixth brother was in a bad mood, so he persuaded him that this was his destiny."

Yuan Qi asked him with a half-smile, "Is he in a better mood?"

Bai Youhui asked: "That's not true. I'm even more depressed. Why didn't I tell me earlier? If I had told me earlier, I might have been able to change Li Jiaojiao's life or something. It's better now. He became a widower at a young age. And there are rumors that he has a tough life. Whose daughter do you think is willing to marry a tough guy? "

"Have you forgotten how many girls liked him back then and were queuing up to marry him? There are probably a lot of people who want to marry him now, right?" Yuan Qi sighed softly, "He is the next head of the Bai family after all. , It’s not like you are so disliked by others. You are two years older than the Sixth Young Master, and you are already a father, but you still refuse to get married. "

Bai Youhui said with a smile: "I want to learn from the master for another two years. But I guess this time the sixth brother gets married, he will find someone to figure it out, and it may be you."

Yuan Qi seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "Let's go quickly, I'm waiting for you, and I won't finish chatting."

Bai Youhui was not in a hurry to leave. He wanted to chat with Yuan Qi a few more words: "Master, don't chase me away. I haven't said anything yet."

The two chatted for a long time, and then Bai Youhui left slowly.

Yuan Qi set up the stall as if nothing had happened, put the Bagua diagram and the lottery tube on the table, and waited boredly for the customers to come.

Within a moment, someone came to the door. It was also a man wearing a navy blue official robe. Yuan Qi recognized him at a glance. It was Qi Sheng.

"Taoist Master, it's a good thing you're still here." Qi Sheng ran over panting and sat down directly.

Yuan Qi asked: "Don't panic, did something happen to you?"

Judging from his appearance, this person is quite smooth and has great luck in love affairs.

Qi Sheng clasped his fists towards Yuan Qi: "I'm fine, he's a colleague of mine. I'm currently on duty at the Hanlin Academy. One of my colleagues, Li Fu, has changed a lot recently. I drank with him today and he actually started crying. What did he say? I didn't understand what he said about Huang Ying. It happened that his wife came, and when Li Fu said something about Huang Ying, they started to quarrel and Li Fu walked away. Li Fu seemed to be a different person these days, always running away and giving all his salary to that person named Huang Ying. The family was in a hurry for money, and he couldn't survive. "

"I thought about Li Fu's behavior these days and felt something was wrong, so I came to see you. Shall we go over and have a look?"

Yuan Qi had nothing to do, so he just said, "Let's go, you can lead the way."

Li Fu's home was a bit far away from here. The two walked for a long time before they found Li Fu's home in an alley in the south of the city.

Li Fu's home is just an ordinary small courtyard, and it is rented.

Li Fu's family had average conditions and a meager salary. He and his wife used to be very affectionate. After he entered the Hanlin Academy, he took his wife from his hometown over. It was good for the two of them to work together to live a good life.
