Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

"Think about it carefully. If the status quo remains, Xu Yixing will still be the legitimate granddaughter-in-law of the Duke's Mansion. Once the divorce is finalized, she will have no choice but to spend the rest of her life at home."

"I know my daughter best. What she has done now is worse than death!"

The emperor was silent for a long time, and finally did not refute.

"Hey! Go back and stop making trouble. I will give you an explanation."

"My lord, thank you for your grace!"

One of its heads knocked against the floor of the hall, making a muffled sound.

It was already dusk when Mr. Xu came back. He looked very tired, but he still called his second daughter as soon as possible.

"Yan'er, did everything go well today?"

"Everything is going according to Dad's instructions. It's going smoothly. But the Wu family said that they must marry into the Sun family. I'm afraid..."

"Bah! Wishful thinking! You have the nerve to live after raising such a shameless daughter, you bastard!"

Old Man Xu gulped down a mouthful of ice water, smoothed his chest with his hand, and then continued:

"But they are just dreaming. The Sun family is almost ruined. Where can she marry? Her daughter will just wait to die in seclusion."

Xu Yixing was secretly delighted: "Dad, what do you mean?"

"I have submitted the charges against the Sun family, but the emperor said nothing. In fact, he knows everything, but only if I submit this memorial can he investigate legitimately."

Xu Yixing also thought so. These things were all up to the emperor. He could investigate them if he wanted. The Sun Mansion had not held any real power in recent years, so even if they really investigated, they would not encounter any great resistance.

"Dad, what crimes have the Sun family committed?"

The old man thought about it for a while, and then he said: "Embezzlement of civilian land, concealment of family property, making friends with officials outside the capital, family members secretly leaving the garrison, leaving the capital without permission, allowing side branches to do business, abusing power for personal gain, relying on students to enrich themselves, forming cliques for personal gain, renting out, reselling land, etc., etc., etc., etc.

Xu Yixing went over these charges in his mind, and none of them could cause the emperor to confiscate his property. To put it bluntly, this was all about money, and how many officials in the capital hadn't done this?

"Dad, what you said, we, our family has done a lot..."

Old Man Xu paused at first, then burst into laughter and kept patting Xu Yixing on the shoulder.

"Good! You are worthy of being my daughter. You can see that these charges are not important at all, right? If the emperor really kills people with these charges, then all officials in the capital will be killed first and then investigated. No one will be wronged."

"Dad, you really know how to joke." Indeed, if this is considered a crime, there will be no honest officials in the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Then tell me, why didn't Dad bring a more serious crime to the emperor?"

"Well...if there really is a more serious crime, the emperor will definitely think that Dad knew about it but didn't tell anyone, and that this is a cover-up, and he will no longer trust Dad."

"Smart!" Dad gave a thumbs up. He was worthy of being his son. Even if he had not learned about court affairs, he was still a smart guy.

"Will the emperor really investigate?"

"The firewood has been set up, and it will catch fire even if it is not burned. Dad will only tell you one thing, the emperor is very angry about the incident at the Wu Mansion this time, and he will definitely punish the Sun Mansion!"

Xu Yixing nodded. She understood that the Sun family had angered the emperor because they compromised with the second prince behind the Wu family. If such a large family could be controlled by the prince at will, there was nothing he couldn't do to kill the emperor and his father in the future.

"By the way, the emperor should give your sister a divorce letter by then, so that he can return to his family with a legitimate reason."

"Eh? But isn't my sister dead?"

"Silly child, even if you die, you should be buried in our Xu family's ancestral tomb! Are you going to be buried with your grandson in the future?"

Xu Yixing herself didn't really care about this. She was dead anyway, so she wouldn't feel anything even if she was thrown into a cesspool. But she was still happy that her father had this kind heart.

"Dad, have you found the body?"

"No. I guess the Sun Mansion did this to conceal its tracks. Maybe it has already been burned down. Alas!"

Xu Yixing comforted his father verbally, but he didn't quite agree in his heart.

Sun Ziyou's ideas are different from those of ordinary people. Moreover, she has been observing from the sidelines for more than half a year. She always feels that the real people in power in the Sun Mansion, Old Lady Sun and Duke Sun, seem to be unaware of the matter of the substitute. It's really strange.

After returning to her room and having a quick dinner, she was finally able to rest.

The moon was above the treetops, it was a quiet night, but suddenly something discordant appeared.

"Second Miss, are you asleep?"

There was the familiar haunted voice again, and the feeling of a familiar face being swept back and forth.

"I was asleep and I was talking in my sleep."

"Okay, young lady. Someone from the Seventh Prince's Mansion came and said that the eldest young lady's body was found. Would you like to go and take a look?"

Xu Yixing sat up with his head turned and saw Ying Jiu standing beside him.

"When?"

"Right now."

"I have no reason to go out at night."

"I'll take you out."

Xu Yixing and Ying Jiu looked at each other and quickly put on a set of dark clothes.

"Oh, go call Siwen over here. Um... you don't have to avoid Siwen anymore. Tell Yingwu about tonight's plan. If I can't get back on time tomorrow, ask him to help me delay."

When Si Wen was taken hostage by the masked man to Xu Yixing's place, he still felt like he was dreaming.

"Si Wen, listen to me." Ying Jiu's hand was still covering her mouth, preventing her from making any sound.

"The Xu Yixing in the Sun Mansion is fake. He was really killed by Sun Ziyou a long time ago. You were not kicked out at all. She was afraid that you would recognize her, so she dismissed everyone in our mansion. Nanny Bai was also harmed by them.

I have found my sister's body now and am going out to see it. You stay in my room and pretend to be me. If I don't come back tomorrow morning, remember to pretend to be sick and don't show your face.

Si Wen, can you do this for me and my sister?"

Xu Yixing finished speaking, watching Si Wen's expression change again and again, until finally tears rolled down his cheeks and he nodded vigorously.

As the person who has spent the second longest time with the eldest lady, she also had endless doubts in her heart. Today, she finally got the answer. So this is the case!

"Let her go." Xu Yixing helped Si Wen up: "He was my sister's former shadow guard, and now he's with me. Okay, I'm leaving, you must keep it a secret for my family."

"Ok!"

Si Wen watched the man grab the second young lady from under her armpits and fly out of the window next to her, shocking her so much that she almost screamed. Fortunately, she covered her mouth. She was still in shock, but she still forced herself to lie on the second young lady's bed, facing inwards, with her hair loose.

You must do what you say.

President Xu Yi is so old that he is most familiar with this flying feeling. He also had this feeling when riding a horse. He just wondered if Ying Jiu had enough strength to prevent himself from falling.
