"Third cousin, why don't you tell me, who is the outsider?" Xie Chen spoke, but there was no joy in his voice.
Hua Rong said bitterly: "You call me third cousin, who do you think is an outsider?"
"If Third Cousin wants to talk about it this way, okay, then let me put it another way," Xie Chen cooperated very obediently, "Miss Hua Third, why don't you tell me, who is the outsider?"
Hua Rong looked at him: "You!"
Xie Chen looked at her with a smile, "Miss Hua San, just say whatever you want."
"Your elbows are all turned outwards, why do you expect me to say anything?" Hua Rong was angry.
Xie Qian bent his fingers and tapped the armrest twice, "In terms of closeness, my younger siblings will sooner or later be from the Guangling Prince's Palace, and you are just a foreign relative of the Guangling Palace. In truth, that is also the younger brother and sister, and you are the outer cousin." . In terms of affection, you sisters have lived in the Guangling Palace for several years. According to common sense, your affection is much deeper than that of your brothers and sisters, but no matter how deep the affection is, it cannot withstand squandering."
"Regardless of whether my sister-in-law is granted marriage by the emperor, as long as the third child recognizes her, no matter what you think in your heart, you should at least respect her more on the surface."
"You relied on the fact that your mother is your aunt, and you acted recklessly and repeatedly caused trouble for your younger siblings. Do you think you are really causing trouble for her?"
"I can't see it clearly."
"In addition to our dwindling affection for you, what you are looking for is nothing but embarrassment."
"If you still can't understand what I'm saying and insist on making us choose between you and your siblings, then you can go back to Jincheng County now."
Xie Qian has always been gentle and gentle, but Hua Jin and Hua Rong have never seen him speak harsh words during their several years in Guangling Palace. Listening to his words at this moment, he was still gentle, but the meaning revealed in his words seemed to have been soaked in ice and snow. Hua Jin knew that no matter how unwilling he was, he could not continue to make trouble. If the trouble continues, Xie Qian will definitely drive them out of the Guangling Palace.
Although he didn't say that, she felt he would do it.
Looking at Princess Guangling's face turned away, Hua Jin lowered his eyes slightly: "Don't worry, cousin, it won't happen again in the future."
"I just won't cause trouble for her in the future." Although Hua Rong was reluctant, she glanced at the people in the room and knew that the situation was over. If the trouble continues, as Xie Qian said, they will only be embarrassed.
Isn't it just to be soft?
What a big deal.
Taking a quick look at Chen Anning, Hua Rong's hatred for her deepened: just because she doesn't cause trouble for her, doesn't mean that others don't cause trouble for her!
The story of her poisoning Wen Yating is not over yet!
"As long as you know your mistakes and can correct them." Xie Qian nodded and dismissed the matter, "It's noon, let's pass the food around."
Hua Jin and Hua Rong did not leave.
Had dinner together.
Take a break.
After Xie Xun and Chen Anning discussed in a low voice to go find Miss Fang San, they both said goodbye.
Hua Jin quickly stood up, bowed to Chen Anning sincerely and said: "In the past, I was too obsessed with my third cousin, and my words and deeds were inappropriate for Miss Chen Er. I ask Miss Chen to be tolerant. In the future... I won't do it in the future." Got it."
Chen Anning nodded slightly and followed Xie Xun without saying anything.
Hua Jin stood up and looked at the backs of the two walking side by side, with a flash of evil in his eyes.
After riding on his horse, on the way to Fang's house, Xie Xun asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Chen Anning looked at the crowded street and said half-seriously, "I'm thinking... you'd better accept Miss Hua."
"Tell me," Xie Xun said resentfully, "Which young master do you like?"
Chen Anning looked at him.
"Don't tell me, you didn't." Xie Xun became more resentful.
Chen Anning sneered and sped off.
Xie Xun chased after her, "If you don't like other young masters, why would you want me to take a concubine?"
His voice was not low.
Pedestrians from far and near looked towards them.
Some brave person saw him and shouted, "Ouch, Miss Chen Er and Mr. Xie are quarreling! Miss Chen Er doesn't want to thank Mr. Xie anymore!"
"Who is talking nonsense? Get out and die!" Xie Xun stopped his horse.
——"It seems that I was right, Mr. Xie became angry with shame!"
Pedestrians burst into laughter.
There were others who were bold. Seeing that Xie Xun had no intention of blaming him, he also started shouting: "Mr. Xie, you might as well tell me why you want to quarrel with Miss Chen Er?"
——"No matter what the reason is, we are quarreling before we even get married. No wonder Miss Chen Er doesn't want you!"
——"Miss Chen, run quickly. There are many young masters in the capital. Don't hang yourself on Master Xie's crooked tree!"
Hearing the words Miss Chen Er and Mr. Xie, Wen Qinsang, who happened to be passing by, raised the car curtain.
Seeing Xie Xun laughing and scolding with pedestrians, Wen Qinsang, who had been exploited in recent months, secretly snorted, lowered the car curtain, instructed the driver to catch up with Chen Anning, then raised the car curtain again and said: "It's necessary. Help?"
Chen Anning looked back at Xie Xun and asked, "Still haven't found any clues?"
Wen Qinsang laughed twice and said, "Mules have to have some rest, right?"
Chen Anning raised her eyebrows and said, "Fortunately, you are human."
Wen Qinsang smiled and sighed, "Did we really have a fight?"
Before Chen Anning could answer, she heard a pedestrian shouting to Xie Xun: "Master Xie, come quickly, Miss Chen Er has run away with Mr. Wen!"
"What a good chess move." Looking at the crowd of pedestrians approaching, Wen Qinsang snorted disdainfully.
Chen Anning laughed twice: "I'm going to see Miss Fang San soon, do you want to come with me?"
Wen Qinsang asked, "What are you looking for her for?"
Chen Anning told the story about the bet with Miss Fang San and the fact that he wanted to invite General Fang to assist in the investigation.
"Then let's go together." Wen Qinsang said.
"What together?" Xie Xun came over and asked immediately after hearing his words.
"Let's go find Miss Fang San!" someone immediately replied.
After Wen Qinsang glanced at the pedestrian who was talking, he looked at Xie Xun with disdain, and then lowered the car curtain.
After Xie Xun thanked the passers-by, he raised his hand and knocked on the carriage wall, and said in a somewhat arrogant tone: "Are you envious and jealous again?"
Wen Qinsang said through the car curtain: "Thank you, sir, for worrying too much."
"Have you checked all the account books sent by the ranch?" Xie Xun asked again.
Wen Qinsang ignored him.
Xie Xun chuckled twice and threw down the bait: "I have already told the emperor that when you come out of the Imperial Academy, you will go to Dali Temple to help me. Become the temple prime minister first, and after Mr. Li retires, you will take his place as the young master. Your position."
Wen Qinsang asked slowly: "The emperor agreed?"
Xie Xun teased: "Do you not believe me, or do you not believe yourself?"
Wen Qinsang fell silent.
After a long time, he said: "Thank you."
Xie Xun knocked on the car wall three times and said nothing else.
A little while.
Several people arrived at the house.
General Fang is not here.
Miss Fang San also just returned home not long ago.
When she heard that her servants had come to report that Chen Anning was looking for her, she quickly came out, glanced at Xie Xun, then at Wen Qinsang, then looked at Chen Anning and said, "Have you figured out the conditions so quickly?"
"I have only one condition, and it's the only condition. I want to ask your brother to help us investigate the case." Chen Anning said straight to the point.
Miss Fang San glanced at Xie Xun again, "The case of the prince's assassination?"
Chen Anning nodded.
"Okay," Miss Fang San agreed readily, "I'll tell him when he comes back. Do you want to come in and sit for a while?"
"No, there's still something else to do." Chen Anning said, riding away first.
Xie Xun followed closely behind her.
Miss Fang San cast her eyes nonchalantly on Wen Qinsang, "Are you also following them to investigate the case?"
Wen Qinsang nodded and was about to lower the car curtain. After Miss Fang quickly stopped him, she said curiously: "I heard that the eldest princess wanted to betroth Miss Chen to you earlier. Is it true or not?" ?”
Wen Qinsang pushed her hand away and lowered the car curtain. Just as he was about to tell the coachman to leave quickly, Miss Fang San raised the car curtain again, winked at him and said, "Do you want to snatch Miss Chen Er back? I I can help you."
Wen Qinsang raised the corners of his lips imperceptibly, "Tell me, how are you going to help me?"
