Bai Yuan: I understand the other things, but what does it mean to pretend to be a grandson?

"What's the meaning of pretending to be a grandson, mother? Your son doesn't understand."

"You will understand tomorrow." It's better to leave this kind of thing to my son to experience it personally.

Then, she looked at Tuoba Hong and said, "General, find a place to hide tomorrow. You can't stay in Xie's house. Zhao Tuo should be coming for you."

"I understand. I can protect myself."

These days, he has gotten used to being a slave.

After everything was arranged, people went their separate ways.

At this time, Jinshang ran over and told her that the old lady was looking for her.

Yun Zhihan sighed and followed her reluctantly.

"Mom, have you been feeling better these days?"

"Yeah." Old Madam Xie replied without raising her eyes. Ever since she took the ginseng, bird's nest and some precious tonics given to her by Yun Zhihan, her health has improved.

Seeing that she was too lazy to talk, Yun Zhihan also became impatient. In that case, no one should speak. She was not in a hurry anyway.

For a moment, the air suddenly became quiet. Nanny Liang looked at the two of them, seeing that no one was talking, so she took the initiative to speak, "Second Madam, the old lady asks you..."

"Shut up!" Yun Zhihan interrupted her, "Haven't you had enough of the lesson from Madam last time? The old lady hasn't spoken yet, so why are you interrupting her?"

"Yes, I know I was wrong." Nanny Liang took a step back. She knew that the Second Madam's world was now in her hands. Although the Old Madam's health had improved, it was probably just a last gasp, and she could not hold on any longer.

Old Madam Xie was furious when she saw her daughter-in-law becoming more and more rampant, but she didn't dare to lose her temper. The medicine she was taking now all came from Yun Zhihan. Once the medicine ran out, she would be dead.

"Yesterday, I heard that the court was investigating a major case and asked the Xie Mansion to close its doors and windows. Is this true?"

"Mother, it is true."

"What's the matter that requires such a big fuss? Could it be that the wild man you brought back has committed a crime outside and alarmed the court?"

"Yun, I warn you, Yuan'er is now the head of the Xie family. No one is allowed to tarnish his reputation, let alone the prestige of the Xie family!"

Yun Zhihan found it ridiculous to hear these words. This old woman showed no intention of repenting for the mistake she had made.

All right! She originally wanted to give a simple excuse to get away with it, but now she doesn't think so.

"Mother, this is not about Ahong. There is a new clue about the cause of my parents' death. The authorities are looking for witnesses to question. They said that there are other instigators and participants behind this."

As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Xie's heart seemed to stop and she suddenly couldn't breathe.

Yun Zhihan was too lazy to look at her and ordered, "Why are you all just looking at her? The old lady is like this? Why don't you come and serve her?"

"Yes!"

In an instant, Nanny Liang and several little maids became busy.

"Okay, mother, take a good rest. My daughter-in-law has been feeling unwell recently, so she is going back."

After saying that, she left without looking back.

Old Madam Xie was terrified because she had tacitly consented to the death of Yun's parents. If she knew about it, she would really be dead.

"Madam, Madam! Please don't let anything happen to you. I and the maids in the room are counting on you."

Madam Liang was very anxious. If the old lady went, would the second lady let her go? No! No!

After Yun Zhihan came out, she happened to see Yuan, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, but she thought she was blind and could pretend not to see it.

"Sister-in-law, please stay!"

Shit! No one wants to pay attention to you, but you still keep going forward.

Yun Zhihan could only turn around and smile helplessly, "It turns out to be sister-in-law, how are you these days?"

"Huh! Don't you know whether I'm good or not, sister-in-law?"

"That's strange, sister-in-law. How would I know if you're OK? We're so far away. I didn't send anyone to monitor you."

Yuan's face twitched twice, and she said with a half-smile, "My sister-in-law is really a hard-mouthed person. Let me ask you, was it you who let Aunt Xu and her daughter go?"

"Of course it wasn't me. It was my eldest brother who signed the divorce agreement. It also said that he wanted her to take her daughter with her. He said that her daughter was like spilled water. There was no point in keeping her. She couldn't enter the Xie family ancestral hall."

"Nonsense!" Yuan didn't believe Yun Zhihan. Xie Songqiao was a selfish, heartless person. Even if he died, he would not let anyone go.

"You must have colluded with that Concubine Xu and instigated her to write a divorce letter?"

Yun Zhihan smiled calmly and asked, "Sister-in-law, do you have any evidence? If not, you are framing me."

Yuan was speechless and couldn't utter a single word.

"Yun Zhihan! No one will always have good luck. Just wait! One day I will make you cry and beg me!"

"Okay, sister-in-law, I'm really looking forward to this day."

After saying that, she walked straight away.

Yuan was so angry that she stamped her feet when she saw her arrogant look, but what made her even angrier was that her son was not on the same page with him. No, she could give up everything except her son, who must be hers!

……

Morning next day.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

"Everyone loves you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"My dear ministers, what do you want to report today?"

"Your Majesty, I have an important matter to report!" Zhao Tuo couldn't wait to see Xie Baiyuan's miserable appearance.

"Prelude!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Tuo took out a letter and the eunuch passed it to the emperor.

After reading it, the emperor's face became heavy and his tone was stern. He asked, "Minister Zhao, is there any evidence for what you said in the memorial?"

"Your Majesty, I received a letter from one of my guards yesterday, saying that he saw a man from Dongyue sneak into Xie Shidu's home and then disappeared."

"As far as I know, although the Great Zhou Kingdom and the Dongyue Kingdom are allies, they are foreign races after all and cannot be trusted. If this person is colluding with important officials of the court, it will inevitably cause panic among the people."

"It is said that Dongyue is currently in turmoil and the people are uneasy. We don't know what the purpose of this person coming here is, but Xie Shidu secretly hides Dongyue people, which is inappropriate."

"I hope the Emperor will thoroughly investigate this matter!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar and the ministers began to discuss.

"How dare Xie Shidu harbor someone from Dongyue? This is a capital crime!"

"Yes, although they are allies, their military strength is not weaker than ours. They are a threat after all."

"Yes, I remember now. General Xie once joined forces with the general of Dongyue State to repel the enemy forces of the Southern State. Are you here to visit the deceased General Xie?"

"Yes! It's possible!"

Zhao Feng, who was standing aside, had no idea what was going on.

Xie Baiyuan was harboring a Dongyue man? How come he didn't know anything about this? Zhao Tuo told him that he had dealt with this man and thrown him into a mass grave. Did he lie to him?

But what about this Dongyue man? He looked at his son, but Zhao Tuo did not respond to him.
