The evil woman becomes the concubine and the villain is crushed to ashes

Since there is no motive, there is no way to say that Xie Lingxi did it on purpose. However, Xie Lingxi is abnormal in every way, and Master Yang cannot feel at ease unless he gets to the bottom of it.

He sighed and said, "Miss Xie, why do you want to be my wife's godparent? Please explain it to me, otherwise I really don't feel comfortable letting you continue to have contact with her."

"My wife had a hard time giving birth to this child. I really don't want anything to happen to her and the child. If you can't explain clearly, I'm afraid the Yang family won't welcome you during this period of time."

Master Yang directly expressed his rejection of Xie Lingxi and also drew a bottom line: unless the suspicion was removed, Xie Lingxi would never be able to step into the Yang family again.

Xie Lingxi was not angry about Master Yang's attitude. Instead, she was happy for her aunt. At least Master Yang was a responsible man and very considerate.

Even though she had such a considerate man to protect her, Ge still had an accident in her previous life. Xie Lingxi couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Of course, I didn't get involved in it in my previous life. Maybe Master Yang in my previous life didn't find anything unusual, so he didn't have time to do anything. This led to one corpse and two lives when I just returned to my mother's home?

Now that I'm involved, I must ensure Ge's safety.

Anyway, she and Master Yang have the same idea, which is for the good of the Ge family. Since they have the same goal, Xie Lingxi doesn't mind revealing some of her own intentions.

But what you say must make Master Yang believe it.

Xie Lingxi thought for a moment before speaking.

"Master Yang is really amazing. Since you asked me this, I will tell you straight away. I admit that my relationship with my aunt is not as simple as I said, but my aunt and I really hit it off right away. My aunt is a very good person, and I think I am lucky to be her godparent."

Seeing that Master Yang's eyes did not show any fluctuation, Xie Lingxi continued.

"Speaking of which, it was because my younger brother was studying in Master Yang's academy. Because I cared about my younger brother, I also cared about the people around him, and naturally I knew about my aunt's affairs."

"I know it was difficult for my aunt to have this child, so I wanted to cater to her needs. I think Master Yang, you should also value my aunt and her child, so after knowing my aunt's situation, you immediately started to arrange to help find a gynecologist."

"All these great doctors in the capital are employed by the big families, and I know my aunt's background. She was ostracized by the rich and powerful circle, so she naturally didn't want to use doctors from these rich and powerful circles. So I thought about looking for a doctor outside the city, and I actually found one."

Master Yang frowned, still not understanding.

"Miss Xie, I know you are a smart girl, but I don't understand why you care so much about me and my wife. Your Changping Marquis Mansion is a big family with a lot of wealth. There shouldn't be anything that needs help from a teacher like me, right? I can't help you with anything."

"I'm not pursuing a career in politics. At most, I can help your brother with his studies, but other than that, there's nothing else I can do. Just because your brother is an educated youth, you're making a big fuss to help find some gynecologist? And you're so concerned about the Yang family? Miss Xie, I can't be convinced by this reason of yours."

Master Yang’s analysis was very rational.

Xie Lingxi smiled and said, "Master Yang has a point, but isn't he a little too modest? Master Yang is not an official, but a teacher. But the Yang family is a big family, and your Yang family is a family of scholars."

"You don't want to pursue a career in politics, but there are other people in your Yang family who are doing well in that field. Of course, I'm not really asking for any favors from the elders of the Yang family. I just want my brother to have a smoother career in the future. I don't have any special ideas, and I'm not thinking of asking the Yang family to open a backdoor for him."

Xie Lingxi told the story with a smile.

"I just feel that my family, my father and my eldest brother, are already eye-catching enough in the court. It would be better if my brother could take a different path, at least not be tied to the Xie family, that is, my father and my eldest brother."

"Our Xie family has a weak foundation in the capital. If we are targeted and become a thorn in someone's side, we will be wiped out. Unlike your Yang family, there are officials and teachers. Even if one of your branches gets into trouble, there are still other branches to protect you, so you won't be wiped out at once."

Seeing that Xie Lingxi's words were becoming more and more nonsense, Master Yang interrupted her in a bad mood.

"Why are you talking about destroying everyone at once? As long as the Xie family works diligently for the court, who can touch you?"

At this point, Master Yang's expression changed slightly, as if he remembered something, and looked at Xie Lingxi in surprise.

"I have heard some rumors recently. I heard that your Xie family is very close to the Third Prince. Did you accept the Third Prince's offer? I heard several times before that the Xie family rejected the olive branch that the Third Prince offered."

As he spoke, Master Yang couldn't help but become a little anxious.

He was still quite optimistic about the educated youth. The Xie family was not stupid either. They had always remained neutral and had no intention of participating in the party struggle.

Although the factional struggles in the court are in full swing and it is not easy to protect oneself, the Xie family has persisted for so long that it is unlikely that they will suddenly change their minds and get involved, let alone join the third prince's party.

You know, the Xiao family has always been the Third Prince's people. Even if the Xie family wants to join the party struggle, they should join the opposite side of the Third Prince's faction. At least they can continue to be opponents of the Xiao family.

If I join the Third Prince's faction, wouldn't my relationship with the Xiao family be awkward?

Master Yang couldn't figure it out, and he looked at Xie Lingxi with a little more vigilance.

The Yang family had never taken sides, and he was just a teacher. He did not want to get involved in the messy court struggles, nor did he want his students to be involved in these messy things before they entered the officialdom.

What's more, Xie Lingxi is a lady from the harem, why would a woman get involved in this? It's totally unruly!

I don’t know how the Xie family taught their children. No matter how much they spoiled their daughter, they shouldn’t do this. How could they let a young lady get involved in such important matters?

Xie Lingxi saw the unpredictable expression on Madam Xiao's face and knew that if she didn't explain a little more, she didn't know what Master Yang would think, so she spoke quickly.

"Master Yang, please don't be angry. I said all this just because I hope you can understand. I mainly hope you can understand that I have no ill will towards the Yang family or my aunt. I'm just afraid that Master Yang won't believe me if I tell him the real reason."

Master Yang frowned.

"Just tell me the truth. I can still tell the truth from the false. Believe it or not, that's my business. Say it or not, that's your business. I still hope you can be honest. Otherwise, I can only say sorry. The door of the Yang family will not be open to those with ulterior motives."
