The Abandoned Daughter

Chapter 167: Powerless to Refute

At this time, Xiao Junhan knew that he had no hope of refuting, and he just collapsed on the ground and kowtowed, "Father, the son confessed his guilt." As he said, he repented and said, "The son is guilty and willing Punishment. Just begging father not to be angry for your son, if you hurt your body, then it is the son's great filial piety!"

Emperor Jing was very angry and snorted, "This is more like a human word, but why don't you do human affairs!"

He was so angry that he was not confused at all, so he was immediately punished. "The minister of the Ministry of Industry Yue Buyun took off the top Dai Hua Ling, and his family property was confiscated, and he would never be hired. The second prince Xiao Junhan was fined for one year, thinking behind closed doors. You are not allowed to go out with permission. As for Qiu Shou, you don’t need to go anymore. Let’s reflect on it at home!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Junhan's eyes suddenly widened, and he wanted to say something, but in the end he could only kowtow and said, "The child minister receives the punishment!"

Xie Shengli has been watching from the sidelines, never speaking from beginning to end. Since ancient times, monarchs and ministers have been different, and the punishment for making mistakes is different. He has been used to this a long time ago. It's just that the poor people, being used by them as the weight of the power struggle, is really pitiful.

This matter is not a secret, but in two or three days, it has spread all over the streets and alleys. When Xie Ruzhuo knew about this, he was sitting in the yard enjoying the flowers.

She just snorted coldly after hearing Qianbi's eloquently speaking. She didn't expect this incident to bring much tremor to Xiao Junhan, but she didn't expect that Emperor Jing would let Xiao Junhan go so easily. But think about it, if there is a concubine in the harem, it is impossible for Emperor Jing to punish too much.

But it was another thing that made her happy. Now the assistant of the Ministry of Engineering was exempted, but Xiao Junhan's money bag was broken. You know, the Ministry of Industry is in charge of things like taxation, transportation, and other things. At this moment, Xiao Junhan may be sulking at home.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling happy. Being able to make the enemy feel angry but not finding a place to vent is also a bright spot in this game.

I only hope that Xiao Junhan will not be too angry, because the next step she has to deal with is Xiao Junhan's mother-in-law, Concubine Xian!

During the autumn hunting period, I also hope that the concubine's heart is wide enough!

On the third day, Xie Ruyun returned to the door. She was very beautiful on the day of her marriage, and Xu Wenyuan was a handsome and polite son, and the two of them got along nicely when they were newly married.

Now when she returned home, Xie Ruyun had an extra layer of feminine charm in addition to the shyness on her face.

Xu Wenyuan and the men of the Xie family ate in the front hall, while Xie Ruyun was called to the backyard by Ji and others.

After seeing the Yuanpa symbolizing chastity on that side, Ji immediately smiled from ear to ear, and winked with Joe's, Lee's and the others, and then said, "Good girl, grandma, it's better to see you look good. , Although your in-laws are not getting along right now, if you can’t be a Beijing official next year, the two of you will have to go back to Xuzhou. By then, you will be able to honor your in-laws, you know?"

Xie Ruyun respectfully replied "Yes" and said something with Ji Shi.

Seeing Ji's tiredness, Li smiled, "Look at a few of us, we have forgotten the time to speak. Mother, please rest first, I'll take Yun'er to sit in the house."

Ji responded, and everyone retired.

Although Li said this earlier, he was only polite. She was afraid that Xie Ruyun would not stay with herself, so as soon as she left the door of Zizhuyuan, she smiled and said, "You haven't seen you these few days, but Mayfair misses you, why don't you go and see her?"

For the clinker, Xie Ruyun grabbed her hand first and said, "It's not anxious to see her later. Let me go and sit in the house with my mother."

When she was newly married that day, Li Shisai gave her a letter, which she read after visiting the hall while Xu Wenyuan was entertaining guests in the front hall.

Although a letter is not thick, the words and sentences in the letter are all things a mother should pay attention to when she tells her daughter to marry. She looked sour, and remembered that Li had treated her as his own in these years, and her heart had softened early.

She is the daughter who got married. I don't know how many times she can see her in the future, so why bother with Li?

Hearing Xie Ruyun's words, Li's eyes blushed immediately and said, "Okay, my dear daughter, I will sit with you."

Although Xie Ruzhuo and others didn't know what had happened, it was obvious that they had said goodbye to Xie Ruyun and went to Qiao's house.

It was not until lunch time that Xie Ruyun, mother and daughter, came out talking and laughing, and they were very kind even at the dinner. Lu's Xu was beaten by Ji's in advance, and it was rare that Xie Ruzhuo didn't make a fuss, but Xie Ruzhuo was very surprised.

Xu Wenyuan looked good, respectful and polite towards people, Xie Chengli was rejoicing, straight forward that the future of the younger generation is immeasurable. Xie Rufei pursed her lips, "You have to take your sister back to see you often. If you can't rob your sister, you won't return it to me."

Everyone who said a few words was overjoyed, Xie Rufei still didn't know what she had said wrong, and looked at everyone suspiciously.

Xie Huailin on the side also curled his mouth and said, "Fifth Sister is really stupid, he didn't steal it, it's the Mingzhong...what is it?" At this point, Xie Huailin tilted his head and said, "Mother, you said yes that day. What is it?"

Seeing him with a small appearance that he couldn't remember, Ji immediately hugged him in his arms, screamed heartily, and smiled, "Good grandson, grandma is here to feed you balls."

Xie Ruyun was looking funny, but Xu Wenyuan reminded Xie Huailin with a smile, saying, "It's Ming Mei who is getting married, and your eldest sister is my wife who Ming Mei is marrying."

In a word, Xie Ruyun blushed to the root of her ears.

Xie Ruzhuo lowered her head and snickered while pretending to be eating, and was kicked suddenly. She raised her eyes and saw that Xie Ruyue was also holding a smile, and she immediately looked at each other and smiled.

In the afternoon, Xie Ruzhuo received another letter from Xiao Junxi.

Since the last time Wen Ruyu came with his blood-red bird, Xue'er has never been willing to nest on the window sill, stopping at the end of her guqin every time, looking at herself with sullen eyes.

Xie Ruzhuo hugged it in his arms, bowed his head and kissed him before opening the letter.

The letter said nothing but small things.

There was a crane in the palace, with strange bones, and sometimes whistling softly, which is particularly eye-catching. Suddenly think of your voice, like a spring in the mountains, Ding Dong is sweet. In addition, the new medicine is extremely bitter, smelly, unhappy, but helpless and harsh.

Xie Ruzhuo read a letter over and over for a long time, smiling for a while, and then his face turned red like a cloud. But with a few words, she seemed to see the man's reluctant look.

In the past, she only thought that this man was less talking, but after the two really talked a lot, she discovered that there was a childish innocence hidden in this man's heart.

Xie Ruzhuo didn't write a letter until it was dusk, and wrote a large sheet of interesting things about these days. At the end, he copied a clear recipe and attached it, but he still wondered if he should do it himself. Do some and let Xiao Xinning take it next time.

The days were so smooth and calm, and in a blink of an eye, there were less than seven days left in Qiu Shou.

At this time, Xie Shenxing finally returned to Beijing long overdue.

After Xie Ruzhuo got up that day, he went to greet Ji's family, and it was very lively. She called Jin Yu over and asked in a low voice, "Is there another guest inside?"

Jin Yu smiled secretly and said, "What kind of guest, it's the second master who is back. The old lady is so happy, she is talking inside."

Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo nodded and said, "In this case, I will come back later."

Jin Yu was busy pulling her, and smiled, "Don't, if you leave, the old lady has to wait for you to eat. The fourth lady, the second master is not an outsider, you should go in quickly."

After hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo sighed in his heart, thanked him, and walked in.

To be honest, she didn't like this second uncle very much. In the past life, if Xie Shenxing did not want to go his own way, causing Xie Shengli to clean up the mess for him many times, this family would not become that way in the end. To put it bluntly, she and Xie Shenxing were regarded as worms at home in their previous lives. Now she has intentions to change, but Xie Shenxing seems to be the same. If a moth sees a moth, it is strange if she likes it.

It's just that she is slanderous, but she can't say this in person.

Xie Ruzhuo put a smile on his face, and then walked in and laughed, "Please Announce to Grandma. Huh, the second uncle is back?"

The expression on her face was completely natural, and she did just the right amount of joy and surprise.

When Ji saw her, he immediately smiled and said, "Look, I said just now why your little greedy cat didn't come, and time will come right now."

Xie Ruzhuo pursed her mouth and said, "Grandma, look at what you said, I'm here to accompany you to dinner." After that, she snuggled up on her own.

It was just the corner of his eye, but suddenly he glanced at the strange woman standing aside.

To be unfamiliar, she had actually seen it in her previous life. This woman has a good look, but there is a charm that radiates from her body. In the words of a man, it is like a fox that has become a fine spirit.

"Huh, who is this?"

Although Xie Ruzhuo knew everything well, he still pretended to be ignorant on the face, hehe asked.

As soon as this was said, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became cold. Ji received the smile on his face, and said lightly, "It's just a housekeeper your second uncle took away." She didn't like this woman at first sight, and she always felt that she didn't feel like a good family. But Xie Shenxing was outside for three years. It would be strange if there were no women around. Since people followed Xie Shenxing, it was difficult to refuse.

Hearing this, Xie Shenxing was a little unhappy at once, and said, "Mother, how does Bi Xin have been with me for so long, just giving me the status of a housekeeper, isn't it lower?"

"It's low? Is the lintel of my Xie's house casually able to come in? Not to mention that she has unknown origins, and still has no children and a half. Could it be possible that I will give her the wife back?" said Ji, Ji Shi sighed again, and said, "Think about Li Shi anyway. She has been doing her homework for a long time these years. She only married Yun Mai a few days ago. You have treated her a lot in the past three years. What does she think in her heart when she is blocking it?"

"It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. I have been away for three years, and she should be considerate of me. Besides, Bi Xin is the daughter of a good family. After following me, I just let Bi Xin be a concubine, which is already wronged. She's gone."

Xie Shenxing looked at Su Bixin with a tender and honeyed face, and then argued with Ji Shi not convinced.

But the woman who called Su Bixin on the side never said a word, just watching her nose and nose, as if she was sitting up and watching.

Xie Ruzhuo sneered in his heart. If this woman really feels wronged, it would be strange.

It's not that she suspected that in her previous life, this Su Bixin disappeared without a trace after the fall of the Xie family. The Xie family was arrested, but Su Bixin was missing. If she hadn't united with outsiders, how could she be so powerful that she escaped the arrest of the officers and soldiers?
