"So if we don't take action, it's fine. But once we do, we have to crush the Xie family. In short, Yu'er is loyal to the Xiao family and to the Marquis. Please understand!"

Xie Ruyu kept saying "clearly understand" and even directly stated that she was the head of the Xiao family. To be honest, Lord Xiao was becoming more and more interested in Xie Ruyu.

This little girl is really too aware of the current situation.

Of course, to put it nicely, it means being aware of the times, but to put it bluntly, it means being thick-skinned.

Lord Xiao smiled gently.

"So what you mean is that you didn't tell my wife and Yusheng about this matter, and only told me. Did you come here today to show your loyalty? No other purpose?"

"I really want to deal with the Xie family. If I can kill all the Xie family members in one go, I will naturally not refuse. But you have to know that the Xie family is not so easy to deal with now."

"And our Xiao family has a very bad reputation. If we take action against the Xie family, we will easily be targeted. If we really do something, it will be easy for people to find out. This is a very risky thing to do."

After a pause, Lord Xiao stared at the two people meaningfully.

"If we talk about the people who are most at risk, besides our Xiao family, it is naturally you two, father and daughter. Once others know that it was you two who took the initiative to ask me for advice on how to deal with the Xie family and your clansmen, I'm afraid you two will be nailed to the pillar of shame by everyone in the capital."

"And since you're using such a vicious method to deal with your own people, neither of you will survive. Even so, are you still willing to continue to implement the plan you mentioned?"

Xie Yunli was already trembling.

He was really scared and was reluctant to come here in the beginning. It was his useless daughter who forced him to come.

He insisted that this was a rare opportunity and that this was the only way to be rich and prosperous in the future.

Hearing Lord Xiao say this, Xie Yunli's old illness came back. His legs became weak and he wanted to kneel down. He didn't want to do it anymore!

Xie Ruyu had already noticed something was wrong with Xie Yunli. She put one hand on the wrist that Xie Yunli was holding behind her waist and pinched it hard.

Xie Yunli gasped in pain, but regained consciousness and looked at his daughter's cold profile.

He knew that his daughter had made up her mind and it was impossible to change it, at least not by himself.

And if my daughter did it, then can I, as her father, still be innocent?

So now there is only one way.

That is to follow my daughter all the way to the end.

What's more, this plan has already been told to Xiao Yuanshan and it cannot be taken back. He has to admit it whether he wants to or not.

Xie Yunli felt very bitter.

Xie Ruyu had already spoken at this time, answering Lord Xiao's question.

"My Lord, Yu'er has just said that my father and I are from the Xiao family, not the Xie family. We may be implicated in this plan, so we have naturally thought of a way out. I hope that my Lord can protect us when the time comes."

"Of course, I came to tell you this, Lord. Besides a little selfishness, there are other reasons. Lord is the head of the Xiao family now. Brother Yusheng can no longer be the heir to the Marquis's Mansion. I am saying this for Brother Yusheng."

"First, I want to help Brother Yusheng get revenge, and second, I want to make some contributions. I want to ask the Marquis to think about us in the future and take better care of Brother Yusheng and my daughter. Other than that, Yu'er has no other request. I hope that Lord Xiao will believe in me and give me a chance!"

Xie Ruyu did keep a very low profile.

Her words and deeds expressed one meaning, that is, she came to Lord Xiao to talk about these things, even at the risk of implicating herself, all for the sake of finding a place for Xiao Yusheng.

If he could accomplish this feat and bring down the Xie family, Xiao Yusheng would deserve to be treated well.

As for the real reason, Xie Ruyu naturally would not tell Lord Xiao, because the real reason was hard to explain.

In fact, Xie Ruyu had been in the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion for so long that she had a general understanding of the situation there.

In the past, she thought that Madam Xiao was the most important person in the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion. After all, Marquis Xiao was the Marquis, and he couldn't always stay at home to handle things.

Most of the household affairs are handled by Madam Xiao, so from a small perspective, Madam Xiao is indeed the head of the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion.

But once Lord Xiao intervened, the highest right to speak would naturally fall on Lord Xiao.

Generally, only things that Marquis Xiao is unwilling or doesn't want to take care of will fall on Madam Xiao's head.

Therefore, in Xie Ruyu's opinion, Madam Xiao does have a certain status in the Xiao family, but no matter how you compare her, she cannot compare to Marquis Xiao.

I am about to give birth, and giving birth is a daunting task. It is difficult to get through it without someone's help. Not to mention, if someone is hoping for my death, wouldn't that be the end of me?

So Xie Ruyu had to find a truly powerful and reliable backer for herself. After searching for a long time, Xie Ruyu found Lord Xiao.

The plan she came up with was indeed to take revenge on the Xie family and Xie Lingxi, but it was also to save her own life.

After all, this plan is best executed if my father and I step forward.

But I'm going to have a baby, so this plan must be careful, comprehensive and cautious.

Therefore, it must be arranged improperly before giving birth. If you want to implement it, you have to wait until you give birth to the child safely.

But giving birth to a child is a hurdle for her. If Lord Xiao is tempted by her plan, she must save her life at all costs.

Xie Ruyu had thought about whether Lord Xiao might be uninterested or disagree, but after thinking it over again and again, she felt that the other party would not think so.

After all, without me, this plan would be incomplete. Although my father is indeed a little stupid and a bit cowardly, he is not a real fool after all.

If I really died, my useless father would never take the risk to complete this plan.

Because if you are not careful, you might really get yourself into trouble.

Without his smart daughter to protect him, he, as a useless father, would definitely try his best to find a shell to hide in. After all, saving his life is the most important thing.

As for wealth and glory, you have to be alive to enjoy them, right?

So from any perspective, this plan is a life-saving talisman for me.

From her point of view, Lord Xiao is indeed the head of the Xiao family, and what Lord Xiao considers is the interests of the entire Xiao family.

Madam Xiao is different. She is just the mistress of the back house, and her life is mostly about the people and things in Marquis Cheng'en's Mansion.

And what he came to the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion was to fight for the rights of the rear house.
