However, General Guide's daughter, the woman named Wang Xiuying, was unwilling to renew her relationship with Xu Lang.

He returned to the Xu Mansion and divided it into two parts. He and his daughter lived in his wife's courtyard, and he lived in his own courtyard.

He raised his daughter, managed the household, and ran the business, and brought her up very well.

He no longer restricted Xu Lang and no longer asked about anything concerning Xu Lang.

It was not until two years later, when her daughter married into the Marquis of Jian'an's family, that she restored the Xu Mansion to its original appearance in preparation for her daughter's marriage.

It is said that Xu Lang has barely even seen his own daughter in the past two years. Instead, he has fathered many illegitimate sons and daughters with his concubine. "

The emperor paused for a moment with his chopsticks, and picked up a piece of hot meat for the queen.

Oh! Look how angry the queen is.

Why are you still angry when I'm talking about other people's affairs?

Not worth it! Not worth it!

After the queen ate the piece of meat the emperor gave her, she wiped her lips with her handkerchief and continued:

"The third day after the wedding at the Jian'an Marquis's Mansion should have been the day for her daughter to return home.

However, Wang Xiuying, the daughter of General Guide, hehe... invited all the elders of the tribe on this day to divorce her husband.

She said that she couldn't bear to trouble her clan members back and forth, so she wanted to settle the divorce issue while they were all in Beijing to attend her daughter's wedding.

As for why she chose this day, she said she was afraid that her daughter would be disgusted by her husband's family when she returned to the Xu Mansion.

Today, the Xu Mansion belongs entirely to Xu Lang and his concubine's family.

I have endured it till today, but I can't bear it any longer. If Xu Lang considers our years of love as husband and wife, then I will just let it go.

If that doesn’t work, you can divorce your wife!

Anyway, I just won’t live under the same roof with him.”

The emperor couldn't help but interrupt, "She is so determined, something must have happened."

"Your Majesty is wise!" The Queen flattered the Emperor a little, and then spoke excitedly:

"It turned out that on the second day after Wang Xiuying's daughter got married, Xu Lang's concubine, with her own children, came to Wang Xiuying's courtyard and knelt down, begging the mistress to take these illegitimate sons and daughters into her name.

This concubine has a good plan. I heard that Wang Xiuying has a good business sense. The shops she runs are very prosperous and the income is very considerable!

She wanted her children to be eligible to inherit Wang Xiuying's property in the future.

Maybe she was jealous of the dowry Wang Xiuying gave to her daughter! But Wang Xiuying is not stupid, so why?

Wang Xiuying was furious! She sent someone to call Xu Lang back, but Xu Lang also agreed with the concubine's statement, saying that they were his children anyway.

Humph! Maybe these two weird people had discussed this.

"Stupid thing!" The emperor also got angry after hearing this.

"It's not that I'm confused. There is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children. Where does he put his wife by doing this?

Besides, the children born to the concubine can inherit Xu Lang's property, so why should they be coveting Wang Xiuying's dowry, shop and property?

Wang Xiuying was completely disappointed with Xu Lang and made a scene on the day her daughter returned home.

She didn't want her daughter to go home and meet such a selfish father.

Xu Lang certainly didn't want to divorce or divorce his wife. Unexpectedly, Wang Xiuying took out the letter of guarantee that Xu Lang had written when he asked to marry her, in front of all the elders of the family.

Written by Xu Lang himself: No concubines, no rooms, no prostitutes.

As a result, the concubine was kept in the open, and Xu Lang was slapped in the face! Xu Lang was angry that Wang Xiuying did not give him face in public, so he wrote a divorce letter in court.

Moreover, he divorced her on the grounds of violating the seven grounds for divorce, saying that Wang Xiuying was infertile, had not given him a son, and had not left any descendants for his Xu family, so he did not even give her the slightest respect.

Wang Xiuying took the divorce letter and did not argue with Xu Lang. She immediately took people back to Xu's house, gathered all her property, and packed it up to send to her daughter's home. "

At this point, the queen couldn't help laughing again.

"I heard that after Wang Xiuying left the Xu Mansion, the house was completely empty, with nothing left. Even things like curtains and bed curtains were taken away.

There were also some heavy items that were difficult to carry away, which were also given to poor families.

It is said that even the fish and lotus roots in the pond were fished out and given away, and the trees planted by the pond and the flowers in the garden were also dug up.

In the end, there was only an empty house left in the Xu Mansion, and there was no rice in the kitchen for the day. The servants were also taken away.

Xu Lang and his concubine were dumbfounded at the time! Ah...haha..."

The queen laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes. The palace maids tried to hold back their laughter and hurried forward to serve the queen.

The emperor was helpless when he saw the queen's overjoyed look. He shook his head but couldn't help but tremble his shoulders and couldn't control his laughter.

As expected, the only way to vent my anger is to look at Wang Xiuying!

Know how to deal with this family's best.

Without the subsidy from Wang Xiuying, the money-making expert, it would be impossible to live as comfortably as before relying solely on Xu Lang's salary!

After laughing for a long time, the queen was finally tidied up by the palace maids, and she couldn't wait to continue her story:

"The then-mistress of Jian'an Marquis's residence was a close friend of Wang Xiuying. She suppressed all opposition and accepted the things Wang Xiuying sent, intending to keep them for her.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiuying had no intention of staying in Kyoto in the future. The shop and farm she owned, as well as her own servants, were all sent to the Mansion of Marquis Jian'an to be given to her daughter.

I heard that she left the capital with a few servants.

No one knew where she went until her daughter Xu Jiao's son, now the young marquis Cui Jinxing, received a gift when he held his first birthday banquet. It looked like it was from Wang Xiuying, but no one saw the person who gave the gift.

Later, the Jian'an Marquisate allowed Cui Jinxing to inherit the title at the age of fourteen. At that time, traces of Wang Xiuying were found in the congratulatory gifts.

It is said that there was a gift from a younger uncle mixed in the gift list. At that time, they guessed that Wang Xiuying had remarried and had a son.

When Xu Lang divorced his wife, he said that Wang Xiuying was infertile. But after she remarried, she gave birth to a son. Xu Lang really always does things that contradict himself.

Calculated, this child is a few years younger than Cui Jinxing, so of course he is a younger uncle."

The emperor took a sip of tea and said casually:

"It's not like no one knows where she is. Don't forget that Wang Xiuying is the daughter of General Guide. There may not be any trace of the general's mansion here, but she is their own daughter after all. How could they not care?"

The Queen suddenly realized, "It must be the Emperor. I knew it! I always feel something is strange, but I can't think of it. Then how did General Guide tolerate Xu Lang divorcing his wife?"

The emperor thought about it and said, "Xu Lang has been in this position for many years without any promotion. I think this may be related to this matter.

General Guide’s connections are no mere decoration!
