Qin Mingheng lowered his eyes and looked at Yun Chu, who was only a few steps away from him.
This was the first time that he and she were so close in front of others, and he could smell the faint fragrance of her body when he breathed lightly.
He went back to that night five years ago in a trance, the night of her wedding. She was so stunningly beautiful. Five years had not left any mark on her face, but she was still so beautiful.
"The Xuanwu Hou Crown Prince was injured in the Xie Mansion. It is indeed our Xie family's fault, but the child's leg is broken, so he has to bear the consequences..." Yun Chu lowered his head and said, "The Xie family will bear all the expenses for the Xuanwu Hou Crown Prince's diagnosis and treatment this month. The cooking treasures are also provided by the Xie family..."
Seeing her groveling like this, Qin Mingheng's heart was filled with fire.
When he saw her in the past, she was still the eldest lady of Yun Mansion. She would raise her beautiful chin and look proud.
How could she learn to grovel after five years in the Xie family? How could she allow herself to fall into humble circumstances for the sake of the Xie family!
Qin Mingheng became even more angry: "Does our Hou Mansion lack this little money? Madam Xie, do you think this can make this matter clear easily?"
"Then what does the Marquis think it should be?"
Mrs. Lin walked over from the side.
This was a matter between the Xie family and the Hou Mansion. It was natural for Chu'er to step forward to apologize. She had no intention of stepping forward on her daughter's behalf.
But seeing that Marquis Xuanwu vented all his anger on Chu'er, no one in the entire Xie family stood up.
Old Mrs. Xie fainted as if trying to escape, Xie Zhongcheng stood behind others with his hands behind his back, Yuanshi lowered her head in fear, Xie Jingyu stood aside with her head lowered, and the others were all children, even more unable to stand up.
The huge Xie Mansion actually needed her daughter to stand at the front.
Mrs. Lin stepped forward and stopped Yun Chu behind her calmly. She raised her head and said, "The prince of the Hou family injured a finger. It will be cured after a few days. However, the second young master of the Xie family has a broken leg from now on." , isn’t this punishment enough?”
Although the Hou Mansion is a noble family, it has no real power, and the Yun family is a powerful official with heavy military forces. As the head of the Yun family, there is no need to bow to the Hou Mansion.
Yunchu sighed.
Her mother stood up. No matter how angry Marquis Xuanwu was, he could only swallow it. It was really easy for the Xie family.
"Master Marquis, let's forget about this matter." Luo Shi had already asked the wet nurse to carry the child into the Marquis's carriage. In fact, he only suffered some skin trauma and it was almost scabbing. It will probably be fine tomorrow. It's really not necessary. There was such a big fuss, but the second young master of the Xie Mansion had his kneecaps crushed, and it will be difficult to walk in the future...
"Then it's what Madam said." Qin Mingheng looked at Yun Chu, "Mrs. Xie is the direct daughter of the general family, but she raised such a child. It is really a disgrace to the Yun family's reputation. If you don't discipline her well, don't let Yun do evil things in the future. The whole family will be put to shame."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left. Luo Shi blessed Lin Shi and Yun Chu and followed him out.
After the people from the Xuanwu Hou Mansion left, the other guests looked at each other and started to say goodbye.
Walking to the door of Xie's house, everyone couldn't help but talk about it.
"Is there something wrong with the Xie family's feng shui? Why did such a big thing happen at two birthday banquets in a row?"
"Have you not seen how scary the face of Marquis Xuanwu is? He wishes he could eat the Xie family. The Xie family and Marquis Xuanwu have become enemies."
"The eldest young master of the Xie family is just the head of the court examination. It will take at least ten years before he can go to the imperial court. It is over for the Xie family if they offend the Hou Mansion."
"Don't forget that the Xie family is also related to the Yun family. Mrs. Yun just interceded for the Xie family, which is enough to show that the Yun and Xie families have not fallen out."
"Just now, Marquis Xuanwu let go of the Xie family. The main reason was Mrs. Hou's words of persuasion. I have to sigh, Mrs. Marquis Xuanwu is so lucky to have met such an infatuated man as Marquis Xuanwu. There is even a concubine and aunt in the huge Marquis mansion. No."
"..."
Yun Chu sent the Yun family out, held Mrs. Lin's hand and said, "At a small scale, it is said that this incident was a child's play, but at a big scale, it is said that a son of the Xie family committed a murder. If the Hou Mansion cannot express this tone, We will always target the Xie family overtly or covertly, so mother, you must not get involved in this matter."
Mrs. Lin gently touched her bun: "Last time, because of the two children, your eldest brother and the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance had a drink. They wanted to find an opportunity to create some trouble for Xie Jingyu. Now it seems that you don't need to When the eldest brother comes forward, Marquis Xuanwu gets angry, which is enough for him to suffer a little. By then, he will know that without the protection of the Yun family, his Xie family is nothing."
Yun Chu felt warm in his heart.
Her family is like this, even if she doesn't say anything, they will always rush to the front for her.
Just now Marquis Xuanwu reprimanded her coldly, and if her mother saw it, she would definitely find an opportunity to say it for her.
"Mom, don't worry about me, be careful on the way back." Yun Chu watched the Yun family's carriage leave, then turned around and walked back.
The old lady Xie had woken up slowly. She held her mother-in-law's hand and cursed angrily in a weak voice: "Marquis Xuanwu is simply bullying others too much. He is bullying others too much. But one of my legs is broken. In this life, Everything is ruined, and he still won't let go of my Xie family! Why should he file a complaint against the emperor? If he wants to sue, it is my Xie family who should sue. He, an eight-foot man, trampled and broke the leg of the legitimate son of the Xie family. The emperor will definitely be devastated. To him!"
Xie Zhongcheng closed his eyes: "Xuanwuhou's great-grandfather once rescued the emperor and was kind to the royal family. The emperor will naturally side with Xuanwuhou. And another one, Xuanwuhou has such a son. Naturally, he is better than the son of Xie Mansion who was born from an aunt. Bastards are precious..."
Yuanshi's lips trembled: "Is this the case? Will my Xie family suffer such a big loss?"
"The matter is not over." Yun Chu walked in from the door, "Xuanwu Hou left with anger, and this fire will be lit again at any time."
Why doesn't Xie Jingyu know this? As long as Qin Mingheng is still holding his breath, he will never have a good life in the future.
The Xie family has finally come this far, is it going to stop like this?
"Old lady, what should the second young master do..." Mrs. He said weakly from the side. She used all her strength to hold back her tears, "Isn't there a miracle doctor in the capital? Please, please ask the miracle doctor to come. Please treat the second young master, he is only eight years old, he cannot be so disabled..."
The old lady nodded: "Yes, yes, please hurry up and call the miracle doctor. Brother Wei's business is the most important thing now. Once the disease is cured, let's worry about other things."
"Father, do you really want to treat Brother Wei?" Xie Shi'an said slowly, "It was precisely because the doctor concluded that Brother Wei's leg was broken that the anger in Marquis Xuanwu's heart dissipated a little. If it is cured, But brother, Marquis Xuanwu will think that the Xie family did not pay any due price, and my father should be able to think of the consequences."
Standing aside, Mr. He raised his eyes in disbelief.
An Ge'er is Wei Ge'er's biological brother, why can he say such cruel words!
Brothers and sisters should work together to advance and retreat together, how can we abandon Brother Wei...
Yun Chu twitched the corners of his lips mockingly. This was what Xie Shian could say, because this person was already extremely selfish and cold-blooded...
Xie Jingyu looked at Yun Chu, as if he saw the mockery on her lips. When he looked carefully, he found that Yun Chu just pursed his lips worriedly. He must have seen it wrong. He asked: "Madam, your What do you mean?"
Yun Chu raised his eyes and was about to reply.
From the corner of her eye, she saw outside the window behind Xie Jingyu. It was at the top of a wall about two meters high. Several big trees grew in the corner. In that corner, two little heads suddenly appeared.
She knew those two faces, they were the young prince and the young princess of Pingxi Palace!
