As soon as he asked, he found that the young couple was getting married, so he decided to have a couple.
At that time, the Old Ancestor was quite puzzled. Logically speaking, he should be happy when they get married. However, the two of them frowned and began to weep.
It was only after he asked that did he know that the woman was called Ba Zhu, and the man was called Qin Fu. Ba Zhu was the daughter of the renowned Prince Ba Tu in the entrance of the market, while Qin Fu was a poor scholar.
Qin Fu was an outsider, he came to the Beijing Academy to teach, he was knowledgeable, refined, witty and humorous, and quickly got to know the First Miss, Ba Zhu.
Prince Ba Tu became so angry that his beard started to twitch.
Everyone knew that successive generations of marriages were all about family, not to mention royal relatives.
How could a daughter of a royal family be betrothed to a poor scholar?
Although Qin Fu was handsome and knowledgeable, he was still a scholar that was useless according to the old saying.
Prince made a prompt decision, he did not agree!
Ba Zhu was unhappy, she told Qin Fu about the matter and the two of them decided to elope, and started to discuss their plans to run away.
Qin Fu was well-informed, and had long heard of the Silver Edge Blade in the capital. After he told Ba Zhu about this matter, the two of them decided to make a pair of jewelry to pray for their blessings, hoping that they could use it to protect their fated families.
So they came here hoping to create a pair of Double Happiness Silver.
He did not dare to move Double Happiness Silver under normal circumstances, and he had never been beaten up by anyone in the palace.
But Ba Zhu's sky-high price moved him.
Anyway, this couple was prepared to elope. No one would be able to find them, so what could possibly happen?
Thus, the ancestor readily agreed.
But he made it clear to them.
However, the two of them were very firm in their stance and made it clear that there was no need to consider.
The Old Patriarch took the blood from the chest of the two and refined it for a full forty-nine days before he worked it out.
He had wanted to leave earlier, but due to the time delay caused by the forging of the silverware, he decided to give up on the elopement plan for the time being.
After waiting for so long, this day finally came. Qin Fu received a set of silver pendant from her hands, and a set of silver bracelet from her hands.
The Old Patriarch told them, that your blood has already fused with this pair of "Double Happiness Silver". From now on, all of your fortune will be tightly connected, I hope that the "Double Happiness Silver" can protect you and bring you good luck.
The two of them immediately put on their silver jewelry and thanked the Old Ancestor. After settling the bill, they were about to leave the store when they were surrounded by a group of people.
It turned out that this group of people were thugs from Prince's Bartu family. Someone leaked the secret and said that they saw two people heading towards the big fence.
The Prince was furious and ordered his men to capture both of them.
Without saying a word, these subordinates tied up Qin Fu and brought him back to the house.
He was well aware of Prince Bartu's character, he was definitely a vicious and merciless character, but this time Qin Fu was caught and brought back, the odds were against him.
The Ancestor wasn't worried about the fate of the two of them, but about his signboard.
If anything happened to the two of them, the 'Double Happiness Silver' would definitely provoke trouble, and when the news spread, not only would they ruin their own reputation, they might even be persecuted for offending the Prince.
Thus, the ancestor was extremely concerned about this matter. Through his connections, he found a high official in the palace and helped him gather information.
After some investigation, he found out that what he was worried about had happened. Something big had happened in the Ba Mansion.
That day, after the couple was captured and brought back, Prince ordered his wife to beat Qin Fu half to death. She also warned him that he was not allowed to approach his daughter again, and threw Qin Fu out like a dead dog.
But how could the two people who loved each other be so easily decided? Ba Zhu saw that the situation had developed to this point and immediately made it clear that she would not marry anyone other than Qin Fu.
Prince was furious, but his daughter was still his precious daughter, so he couldn't bear to touch even a hair on her head. After thinking about it, he finally locked her door and had her take turns guarding her, not allowing her to take even half a step out of his house.
Ba Zhu washed her face with tears everyday. The servant Xiao Lan, who brought the food, felt her heart ache, and decided to help the Young Miss escape.
Xiao Lan was secretly treating Qin Fu's wounds, and at the same time she was sending the message for the two of them.
That morning, Xiao Lan found Qin Fu and told him to pack his luggage and wait at Hundred Flowers Lane under the big poplar tree in the middle of the night.
When night came, Xiao Lan drugged the food, knocked out the gatekeeper, stole the key and brought Miss out of the house. She also told Qin Fu was waiting for you under the poplar tree at Hundred Flowers Lane, you guys should quickly escape while it was dark.
Ba Zhu ran quickly all the way to the bottom of the Yang Tree. Sure enough, she saw Qin Fu waiting there with a bag in his hands.
The two of them did not have time to get close to each other as Qin Fu pulled her hand and ran.
But he had not run far, Ba Zhu's ankle was twisted, he had no choice but to carry her on his back and continue his journey.
Before he had fully recovered from his injuries, another person on his back was quickly taken back by one of the Prince's subordinates.
Prince was truly anxious this time, last time he spared Qin Fu's life, he did not expect that this brat did not change his mind, and so he used "Four horses dismembered", one of the top ten torture methods.
After the thug beat Qin Fu up badly, he found four horses and tied their hooves together with ropes to Qin Fu's limbs. After a series of whips, the four horses ran in four different directions in shock.
Just like this, Qin Fu was mercilessly dismembered by the four horses.
Ba Zhu was so scared by the bloody scene that she fainted on the spot.
Xiaolan, who had helped them escape, was thrown into the river in an iron cage and drowned.
The silver pendant on Qin Fu's neck was left at the scene, it was completely stained with blood, and it was secretly picked up by someone and handed over to Ba Zhu.
In order to make Ba Zhu completely give up hope, Prince married her to the Minister of Justice's son.
Even if Ba Zhu was extremely unhappy, there was no way for her to resist against all these. She could only take out the silver pendant Qin Fu had left behind for her to think about and wash her face with tears everyday.
Not long after their marriage, Ba Zhu became pregnant and the Prince calmed down as well.
But within a few days, something happened in the Belle manor.
Although it was autumn, all the flowers in the house bloomed overnight, revealing a beautiful blood-red color. It was a very strange and enchanting scene. Every morning when he woke up, there was always a pool of water in the hall, and it was emitting a foul stench.
The entire Prince family was confused, what was going on?
Some of the servants saw it and started to discuss it secretly, saying that the servant Xiao Lan and Qin Fu died miserably, so they must have come back to take revenge.
Prince found out about the things they were secretly discussing and dismissed the bunch of servants who were spreading gossip in a fit of rage.
