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

Xie Lingxi moved closer to Xie Zhibai and whispered in his ear.

"Brother, you are doing this..."

Xie Zhibai lowered his head slightly to listen, and was a little surprised after listening.

“Is it really okay to do this?”

Xie Lingxi smiled and nodded: "Of course, although there are some risks, as long as Shunpin can learn a lesson, this risk is worth taking. And as long as we clean up the mess, there will be no possibility of being discovered. What's more, there will be bigger things to do in the court next, and no one will pay attention to this little thing."

Xie Zhibai nodded and said, "Okay! Then I'll take care of this matter, by the way!"

Just after Master Xie finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something and spoke directly.

"There is one more thing. The Fifth Prince investigated the Lipin incident, but almost all the people involved who might know the truth have been dealt with, including the imperial physician, the nanny who took care of the baby, and the maids who served Lipin. They seemed to have been secretly transferred away, and no one knows where they are now."

"The Fifth Prince searched for a long time but couldn't find the people directly involved. However, he found the son of the nanny who served Lipin. Her son seemed to know something. The Fifth Prince interrogated him, but no one knew what happened. The Fifth Prince said he wanted to see you and asked me to come back to ask your opinion."

Although they said they wanted to ask Xie Lingxi's opinion, they actually had to meet. Otherwise, the Fifth Prince had gone to great lengths to give them so much information about Shunpin, and they refused to even meet her, what would that mean?

Xie Lingxi was also surprised that the Fifth Prince actually found the relevant person. Although it was only indirect, maybe the son of the nanny who was fostering the baby also knew something?

Now Shunpin is the common enemy of himself and the Fifth Prince. Whether out of helping the Fifth Prince, repaying a favor, or out of protecting the Xie family, he has to go, so he agreed.

"Okay, then I'll go meet the Fifth Prince."

Xie Zhibai also thought it was nothing.

This time, the Fifth Prince has helped the Xie family a lot. It's only right that they meet and talk.

"Okay, I'll arrange it for the next two days. Don't run around. Wait for me to arrange a place for you."

"Sister! Sister!"

Xie Lingxi nodded, and just as she was about to ask for more details, a voice suddenly broke the silence in the yard.

Xie Lingxi and Xie Zhibai both looked outside the yard and saw Xie Zhiqing running in breathlessly.

"Zhiqing, what's wrong with you?"

Xie Lingxi was a little surprised.

Xie Zhibai also frowned and said unhappily: "Why did you come back at this time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Zhibai suddenly remembered, could it be that Shunpin had made a move in advance? He immediately stepped forward and asked anxiously.

"Did something happen in the academy? Are you okay? Is someone targeting you? Have your poems been touched?"

Xie Zhiqing was confused by his elder brother's questions, but his elder brother was right. Xie Zhiqing didn't waste any words and succinctly told what happened in Qingfeng Academy, emphasizing Xiao Yu'an's behavior of looking for trouble and Xiao Yu'an's weirdness.

After hearing how Xiao Yu'an deliberately made trouble in the academy, and later forced Master Yang to be his teacher, and how he deliberately used Xie Ruyu as a raft, Xie Zhibai and Xie Lingxi found it very strange and looked unhappy.

This Xiao Yu'an... No, what does this Xiao family want to do?

"Why are you guys all together?"

When Mrs. Xie entered the yard, she was surprised to find her three children all there.

She had heard that her daughter had returned, so she cooked some bird's nest and wanted to ask her daughter to eat it, but she didn't expect that her eldest son and youngest son were both here.

Seeing their mother, Xie Lingxi and her elder brother and younger brother looked at each other and suddenly made a decision.

I don’t know what the Xiao family is up to this time, but it’s obvious that they are targeting the Xie family.

This matter could be big or small, and he could discuss it with his elder brother and younger brothers, but he still had to tell his mother and father about it, so he quickly walked towards Mrs. Xie and said.

"Mom, where is Dad? We have something to discuss with you."

Mrs. Xie was stunned at first, then seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter and responded immediately.

"Your father just came back and is drinking tea in the study now."

Upon hearing this, Xie Lingxi immediately said, "Then let's go to the study together!"

Lord Xie’s study.

Lord Xie himself, Madam Xie, and Xie Lingxi and his two siblings, were all gathered together at this time, and everyone sat on their own side.

Xie Lingxi said directly to Xie Zhiqing: "Zhiqing, tell me what happened in the academy, no matter how big or small, tell me clearly."

Lord Xie knew that something happened in the academy and now he is a little anxious.

Mrs. Xie looked at her youngest son without saying a word.

Xie Zhiqing described the situation in the academy again, but this time he described it in more detail than before. After listening, everyone looked thoughtful.

Lord Xie looked a little unhappy and said unhappily.

"This Xiao family is really restless, especially that bastard Xiao Yuanshan. What does he want to do? He brings up the matter of breaking off the engagement for no reason... That's not right."

When he said this, Lord Xie realized that something was wrong, frowned, looked at his daughter and asked.

"Speaking of breaking off the engagement, the Xiao family is the one who is truly embarrassed. Xiao Yuanshan is such a face-conscious person, how could he allow Xiao Yu'an to bring this matter to the academy and make a fuss about it? Is he crazy?"

"Or is this what Xiao Yu'an himself meant? To destroy the chances of Xie Ruyu's child inheriting the title?"

Lord Xie felt that his guess made some sense.

Xie Lingxi also began to recall the Xiao Yu'an that she knew in her previous life.

Speaking of which, I don't know much about Xiao Yu'an. In his previous life, Xiao Yu'an had always been very low-key. When he was in Qingfeng Academy, he had quite a good reputation, that is what my younger brother said.

Although he is a concubine's son, he gives the impression of being self-reliant.

But in this life, Xiao Yu'an took the initiative to tear up this good impression, which was like taking off his own mask.

This was totally beyond Xie Lingxi's expectations.

Xie Lingxi made some guesses and then spoke directly to everyone.

"In my memory, Xiao Yu'an is not such an impulsive and reckless person. And just like my brother said, in my memory, Xiao Yu'an is also very low-key and has a good reputation. This time he suddenly did such a thing without hesitating to destroy his reputation. I think it may be related to his title."

Xie Lingxi paused here and started analyzing again.

"It may also be that he didn't have the opportunity in his previous life. Xiao Yusheng and Xie Ruyu's conspiracy succeeded in their previous life, and their positions in the Xiao family were stable, so Xiao Yu'an didn't have the opportunity to stand out. In order to protect himself, Xiao Yu'an kept a low profile and didn't show any teeth."

"He must have a purpose for suddenly attacking the educated youth in the academy this time, and it must be very profitable, otherwise why would he do this?"

Xie Zhiqing immediately took over the conversation.

"Sister is right!"
