The evil woman becomes the concubine and the villain is crushed to ashes
Chapter 143 Thank you, Lord, for the treat
Lan Ye was a martial artist with good hearing. She was sure she had heard it right. It was the sound of horse hooves, or more precisely, the sound of a carriage! Someone was coming!
Lan Ye quickly went around to a hidden place.
After a while, I saw a carriage slowly approaching this side in the dim night.
The carriage looked very plain, but Lan Ye's eyes still recognized a sign hanging on the carriage, which had a Yang written on it.
Is this the Yang family’s carriage?
Someone from the Yang family is coming?
Lan Ye frowned slightly and stared at the carriage carefully.
……
Yunying Restaurant, the largest restaurant in Beijing.
A bunch of distinguished guests suddenly appeared outside the door, yes, a bunch of them.
The waiter didn't expect so many well-dressed and well-mannered guests to appear all of a sudden, but he didn't think much about it and quickly sat down to greet them.
"Hey, distinguished guests, do you have a seat? If not, let me lead the way and take you to the private room!"
The leading Censor Liu waved his hand, looked around and asked.
"Do you know Lord Xie? Lord Xie invited us here today."
When he heard the name of Lord Xie, the waiter immediately understood and smiled even more brightly.
"Oh! So you are the guests invited by Lord Xie? Lord Xie has already reserved a seat in the private room on the third floor. I will take you upstairs!"
Censor Liu nodded and did not refuse.
The others looked at each other, but had no objection, so they followed Liu Yushi upstairs.
The waiter led everyone to the door of a private room and then left. Two guards were standing at the door.
An old man stroked his gray beard and laughed, "It's like the sun is rising from the west. Lord Xie is fine, but he suddenly invites us to dinner and drinks. It's really rare."
"Isn't it? Our Lord Xie used to go to the palace for court and return home after court. How could colleagues like us have a chance in between? It's really rare. I don't know what's wrong with him today. He suddenly wants to treat us to a drink. I don't know what he's thinking."
"Yeah, why would he invite us, the imperial censors, to drink wine for no reason? Isn't he the one who hates dealing with us the most?"
"It's not that they don't like dealing with our censors. The Xie family doesn't like dealing with anyone in the court. They have always considered themselves to be honest officials, but they are a little too honest, so honest that they are a little stupid!"
Everyone did not lower their voices, but after Censor Liu pushed the door open, they calmed down a lot. After all, they were the ones treating them, so there was no need to step on their faces so directly.
As soon as the door opened, the people inside immediately looked over, and it was only Lord Xie.
When Lord Xie saw Censor Liu leading the way and a group of censors following behind him, he immediately laughed.
However, he had no experience in entertaining so many colleagues, so his smile was a little stiff and his movements were a little awkward.
However, everyone came here today just to see something new, and when they saw that Lord Xie was really here, they were just surprised.
As for other things, they had no time to pay attention to them. They came in with smiles on their faces and bowed to Lord Xie.
"Oh, Lord Xie, I don't know what's going on today. Why did you want to treat us to a meal?"
"Yes, it's really rare that our Lord Xie is willing to come down to earth to drink with us ordinary people."
The sarcasm from everyone made Lord Xie look embarrassed, and he bowed quickly.
"Oh, my colleagues, it was all my fault before. It's not that I'm aloof, but I'm a bit lazy and not good at socializing, so I don't like to interact with my colleagues in the court."
"After all, our Xie family's ancestors were all dedicated to serving the country. When it comes to my generation, I am not as eloquent as my ancestors, so I will not embarrass myself in front of you. But I never thought that the Xie family would fall to this point..."
When Lord Xie said this, his eyes turned red with true emotion. Then he took a step back solemnly, bowed to everyone, and performed a great salute.
"In the past, I, Xie, did not do well enough. I only thought about my own happiness and doing my work, but never thought about interacting more with my colleagues. Now I think that I was shallow. Thank you all for speaking for my Xie family and criticizing the Xiao family in the court!"
Everyone was so shocked that they forgot to go over and help Lord Xie up.
Before they could react, Lord Xie bowed solemnly to Censor Liu.
"I want to especially thank Censor Liu this time. If you hadn't made such an impassioned speech in the court, the Xiao family wouldn't have been punished so severely. Thank you so much!"
Censor Liu half-closed his eyes, puffed out his chest and said proudly.
"It's just official business. I just can't stand the ugly face of the Xiao family. After all, they are officials appointed by the court and a marquis' mansion. How can they do such a despicable thing? How can they be a family of meritorious service?"
"They are just like hooligans... No, they are even worse than hooligans! I criticized their whole family in the court, and they deserve it! Thank you, Lord Marquis, for not doing this!"
Having said this, Censor Liu paused, and looked at Lord Xie with a rare look of appreciation.
"Speaking of this, I have to praise Lord Xie. The Xie family and the Xiao family are both marquisates, but the family traditions of the two families are obviously completely inconsistent. You two families should not become relatives. Miss Xie is a blessed person and will not enter the dragon's den and tiger's lair of the Xiao family."
"It's her blessing, and it's also your Xie family's blessing. Lord Xie has lived up to your father's reputation this time. You are a good father. You have protected both the Xie family and your daughter."
When he said the last sentence, Censor Liu's tone gradually became low. Everyone present knew about the Liu family, and knew even more about the misfortune that young lady Liu had encountered. Everyone followed suit to praise Lord Xie, but they also did not forget to comfort Censor Liu.
Censor Liu did feel a little sad when he mentioned his daughter, but it had been so long since the incident happened and he now regretted it.
Although he hated himself for not protecting his daughter, he had tried his best to seek justice for her.
However, this resentment was always stuck in his chest, unable to go away or get rid of it. For so many years, Censor Liu relied on this resentment to get around in the court and criticize people everywhere.
The focus is on those who have improper intentions or behaviors towards women.
It was just a coincidence that the Xie family and the Xiao family met this time.
Lord Xie sighed and stepped forward to comfort him.
"Prince Liu, please think more positively. If you live well, Miss Liu can rest assured in the underworld. Miss Liu is a kind-hearted person. No matter where she is, she will definitely have a good result."
Others followed suit.
"Yes, yes, Censor Liu, please be more open-minded. Miss Liu is your daughter. Censor Liu has done so many good things for the people. These are all merits and will benefit Miss Liu. Don't worry, Miss Liu is definitely living a good life. Censor Liu, you should also be more open-minded."
