Chapter 8
Yuxiu removed all the tea and brought a cup of clear water to Xie Tinglan's hand.

There was no one around, she whispered: "Miss, this servant has already passed the message to Gu Fucheng."

Yuxiu pursed her lips, and said again: "But Miss will offend Fu Cheng by doing this?"

Xie Tinglan took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and said in a warm voice: "The third master of the prime minister's mansion, don't care about me, a little girl who has just reached her age."

When Xie Tinglan worked with Fu Pingye in his previous life, he heard about Gu Fucheng from him.

Fu Pingye said that his uncle was timid and cautious. He always smiled at people and ghosts.

People with this kind of temperament, when encountering such a thing, their first reaction is to be frightened, but they will act more attentively because of fear.

On the surface, Zhong Ling's matter was just a theft, and it looked like a trivial matter, but in fact, only Xie Tinglan knew that if Gu Qing investigated seriously, he could find out many things.

She put down the teacup, walked through the corridor, and came to the study on the east side.

"Shen Jiu."

Xie Tinglan stepped over the threshold and walked into the study. As soon as the words fell, the shadow guard appeared, followed her in, and closed the door behind her.

Xie Tinglan walked to the Arhat's bed in the study, turned around and sat down, and said slowly: "Xie Boming will definitely investigate, how did I know Ji's identity."

She looked at Yingwei Shen Jiu, and said: "I remember you said before that you saw Xie Shuhui frequently going in and out of a house on Baihu Street. Last month, she ordered a white jade Ruyi in Jinbao Pavilion, and ordered someone to send it over."

Xie Tinglan smiled slightly, "Leave this matter to Xie Shuhui, do it neatly, and don't leave any traces."

In the last life, because Xie Tinglan didn't care about Xie Shuhui, she didn't find out why she often went to this mansion, so she missed the opportunity to learn about the existence of Ji Chuchu in advance.

She didn't know until later when Xie Shuhui bought something for Ji Chuchu in her shop, and Chen Wu, who was in charge of the shop, showed her the account book.

Xie Shuhui wanted to sell her to please Xie Boming and Mrs. Xie, but she didn't even think about it.

On the carriage back home, Mrs. Ji sobbed softly, crying endlessly.

"I knew it was very difficult for me and Ming Lang to stay together in this life. At first, my parents obstructed me, but now I am the wife and eldest lady. The concubine only wants to live a good life with Ming Lang. How could it become like this!"

Xie Boming held her in his arms and comforted her with distressed eyes and frowning.

Xie Boming didn't tell Ji Shi about Xie Tinglan's request for the time being, but just told her vaguely that he couldn't take them in for the time being and would have to wait for a while.

He was also thinking about how to get rid of the predicament in front of him and bring Ji and his son and daughter into the door.

The two embraced all the way, Ji's eyes were slightly swollen from crying, and she fell asleep from exhaustion.

Xie Boming carried her out of the carriage, carried her back to the wing room and settled her down.

When she left, Xie Luoyao was waiting at the door. She had a sad look on her brows, but she forced out a smile and pretended to be strong and said:

"Daddy doesn't have to turn against the eldest lady for us. If something happens to daddy, mother, me, and younger brother will definitely blame themselves."

Xie Boming looked at Xie Luoyao, feeling very worried.

Why is this daughter so caring? Xie Tinglan, that rebellious girl, always fights against him!Don't give him any face!

If he had known this earlier, he shouldn't have married Wei Langhua back then and given birth to such a bastard as Xie Tinglan.

Xie Boming let out a long breath, hugged Xie Luoyao, and patted her on the back.

"Don't worry, Dad will pick you up soon!"

A gleam flashed across Xie Luoyao's drooping eyes.

Xie Boming stayed for a short time before leaving.

Now that the family has talked about it, he still has to think about how to deal with Wei Shi when he goes back.

Now that Xie Tinglan had caught him, he didn't dare to be too arrogant.

Xie Boming left with his front foot, and Ji Shi walked out of the wing room with his back foot.

She wasn't asleep at all.

Pretending to be asleep is just to save a little face for Xie Boming.

Xie Luoyao also put down her performance and followed Ji into the room.

Sitting at the table, Mrs. Ji flipped over a teacup and poured out a cup of tea irritably, and drank it all in one gulp.

"I'm afraid your father won't be able to take us back in a short time." Ji said with a sullen face.

She lowered her eyes and secretly scolded Xie Boming for being a waste in her heart.

After so many years, there is no progress.

In the imperial examination back then, he didn't even pass the top three exams and still wanted to marry her.

He said he had a special liking for her, but he also fell in love with that bitch Wei Langhua, making her only a concubine.

After so many years, the Ji family is looking forward to the day when Xie Boming can stand up and welcome her back to be an official wife.

Why does Wei occupy the position of wife?

How could the eldest lady in the capital be more noble than her?

Xie Luoyao pressed Ji's wrist and said: "Mother, don't rush everything. It may not be a good thing that Dad can't take us back now."

Ji asked: "How do you say?"

"The more times Wei Shi and Xie Tinglan force daddy, the more daddy hates them. On the contrary, daddy will love mother, me and younger brother more."

Xie Luoyao curled her lips into a smile, "Besides, it's not a long-term solution for her to use the Duke Huguo's mansion to force her. My brother and I are always father's children. My mother said, if this matter gets out, how will others arrange Wei's, Under strong pressure, she will let go and let father welcome mother back home!"

Ji's eyes flickered, and he looked away guiltily.

It's not that she didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but she has a special background, if someone finds out by accident, she will die without a place to bury her.

Xie Luoyao knew what Ji was afraid of, and she knew about her mother's life experience in her previous life.

It was precisely because of Ji's family background that Xie Boming lost his official position as Minister of the Ministry of Officials in his previous life, was exiled for three thousand miles, and was never allowed to enter Beijing.

And because Xie Tinglan was married to Fu Min, she was protected by Fu Min and was not affected in any way.

Xie Luoyao's face was distorted, and she clenched her teeth ferociously.

She will never lose in this life!She wants to beat Xie Tinglan and kick her out!

It was still nearly a year before Xie Tinglan discovered Ji's identity, which was enough for her to reverse history.

Xie Luoyao said: "Mother, don't worry, this matter is also related to Daddy's reputation, I have a sense of proportion. By the way, I will also go to the banquet at the Princess' Palace in a few days."

"As the eldest princess, there will be many wives and ladies from high-ranking officials and noble families attending this plum appreciation banquet. These women are the most talkative. Wei Shi has a very good face, and has a stupid and impulsive temper. If she quarrels with them because of this, then she The reputation will be even worse. Comparing father and grandmother, he will feel that mother is gentle and generous, and then he will definitely try his best to take mother back home."

The Ji family was moved by Xie Luoyao, but: "With your status, how can you get into the Princess's mansion..."

Xie Luoyao smiled slightly, "Mother forgot, there is a fool who doesn't always please mother."

Ji suddenly realized.
