Chapter 95 Wang Rongyue

In the morning of the next day, Xie Tinglan was having breakfast.

Yuxiu offered a glass of warm water, and softly asked Xie Tinglan, "Miss, do you want your servant to deliver breakfast to His Highness?"

There is no one else in the room, but I am not afraid of being heard.

The servants in the house all go to the kitchen to get their meals, that is, some steamed buns, porridge and pickles, which are naturally not as rich as the master's.

That domestic slave who can't be counted as two mansions, in fact, shouldn't eat at the mansion. Last night, Mrs. Shen gave him a meal. I don't know if anyone has been informed to continue to serve the meal.

Xie Tinglan didn't raise his head, "He's not a fool, he can still starve to death."

Yuxiu's eyes widened, she gasped and suddenly didn't know what to say.

She quietly looked at Xie Tinglan's face, and thought to herself, when did the lady and His Highness quarrel?

Listening to the hidden guard in the corner on the beam of the house, he had mixed feelings.

What did he say when he went back?

After breakfast, Xie Tinglan planned to go to Shen's courtyard to pay his respects, but unexpectedly, when he was ushered in, he saw an unexpected person.

Sitting upright on Arhat's bed, Shen smiled and waved to her, "The stars are here, come and sit."

The smile in Xie Tinglan's eyes was covered with deep meaning, she stepped forward gracefully, and said in a warm voice, "I didn't expect my aunt to have guests here..."

The gentle woman sitting on the embroidered stool opposite Shen's got up slowly, bowed to Xie Tinglan, and said with a smile: "The little girl's surname is Wang, and her name is Rongyue. Please greet the county lord."

Xie Tinglan raised his hand at her from the air, "You don't have to be so polite, just call me Tinglan."

Xie Tinglan stroked her skirt and sat down. She already knew who this person was in her heart, but she still pretended not to know and asked Shen: "Auntie, this is..."

"She is Lord Wang Jian's daughter Rongyue. Since his father's accident, there have been disputes within the Wang family. Your uncle took her to live in the mansion."

Wang Rongyue's appearance is soft and beautiful, and a pair of willow-leaf eyebrows frown slightly, which makes people feel pity. Such a delicate girl, without her father's protection, can only be slaughtered.

There was gratitude in Wang Rongyue's eyes, "If Uncle Wei and Aunt Wei didn't take pity on me, I'm afraid Rongyue wouldn't be alive today..."

Shen turned her head slightly, and softly told Xie Tinglan about the Wang family's affairs after Wang Jian passed away.

It was probably Wang Rongyue's uncle and aunt who, after Wang Jian's death, quickly swept up all his family property and became the head of the Wang family on the grounds that he had no male heirs under his name.

Wang Rongyue's mother died early, and she has no brothers or sisters, nor Jiji.

The uncle said on the surface that when she reached the age of Ji, she would give her her father's property as a dowry.

But on second thought, he wanted to sell her to a businessman who was over fifty years old, and then he would marry her to another state capital.

At that time, with her husband on top of her head, no matter how hard Wang Rongyue struggled, she would not be able to return to Qingzhou Mansion. Wang Jian's family wealth would naturally go into the pockets of his younger brothers and sisters.

Xie Tinglan sighed for Wang Rongyue, but asked again: "This member of the Wang family has done such an inhumane thing, why didn't uncle report it to the court?"

"Firstly, it's the Wang family's business, we are all outsiders and it's not easy to interfere. Second, there is no evidence. The couple are too cunning, pretending to be serious, and no one will believe it when they tell it."

Xie Tinglan nodded thoughtfully, looked at Wang Rongyue beside her, with sympathy in her eyes: "Miss Wang is really a pitiful person."

Wang Rongyue wiped her tears with a silk handkerchief wrapped around her fingertips.

Shen said: "I discussed it with your uncle. Now that Rong Yue's father has not been buried, it is not appropriate to expose such disputes in front of him, and the troubles are not good. We will go to Wang's house after Wang Jian is buried. Negotiate with them. At that time, your uncle and I will recognize Rongyue as a foster daughter, and when she is married next year, I will go to them and spit out the family wealth that they have swallowed."

Wang Rongyue's eyes were red, and her heart was poked again, "Yue'er really doesn't know how to repay her uncle and aunt..."

"Silly child." Shen said softly, and stepped forward to wipe away her tears.

Wang Rongyue calmed down, wiped away the tears on her face, and stood up with a smile.

"I delayed my aunt for a long time, so I went back first. Auntie and sister Xie chat slowly."

Shen didn't keep her, and sent her away with a nod and a smile. After looking away, she sighed and said, "It's also a poor child."

Xie Tinglan got up and sat next to Shen Shi, poured tea for her and said, "She is considered lucky to be blessed by her uncle and aunt."

Looking at Shen who was drinking tea, Xie Tinglan spoke silently in his heart, and waited for her to put down the teacup before opening his mouth, "Listen to what my aunt said just now, Mr. Wang has passed away for so long, and has he not been buried yet?"

Shen sighed, and put down the teacup, "Before, it was to investigate the case. Wang Jian died of homicide, and the murderer could not be found until your uncle found his blood letter."

"Later, because the progress of the land enclosure case was stagnant, in order to be able to transfer to the higher authorities, the procuratorial envoy who was prosecuted had to make a fuss about Wang Jian's death, saying that Wang Jian's death might be related to the real culprit of the land enclosure case. Therefore, the procuratorial envoy in Qingzhou has been In the process of investigation, it is inevitable to inspect the body. Therefore, the burial has been postponed until now.”

"Then he was able to be buried because Wang Jian's death was confirmed, and it has nothing to do with the mastermind behind the scenes?" Xie Tinglan asked.

Shen shook her head, "They just wanted to use Wang Jian as a tool to delay time so that they can cope with the present. Your uncle is still very angry because of this."

After fully inquiring about what she wanted to know, Xie Tinglan got up and said goodbye.

Unexpectedly, after walking out of the courtyard, he saw Wang Rongyue waiting there at the resting pavilion not far away.

Xie Tinglan walked up, Wang Rongyue got up and saluted her, Xie Tinglan helped her up, and asked with a smile: "Why didn't my sister go back to the hospital?"

Wang Rongyue smiled shyly, "Rong Yue just met Sister Xie, and she felt close. My sister went over and saw that she had something to do with her aunt, and Rong Yue didn't dare to disturb her, so she just waited here for her to come out."

"Shall I accompany my sister to the garden?"

"Okay!" Wang Rongyue nodded vigorously, and the two walked side by side to the back garden of Qingzhou Mansion.

We chatted a lot along the way.

Wang Rongyue said that she has no brothers and sisters in the palace.

Wang Jian's heirs are weak, and his wife died early, leaving him only one daughter. The aunt in the house is not up to the mark, and even if she is pregnant, she will not be able to keep it because of various accidents.

The fortune teller said that this was Wang Jian's fate, and he was destined to have only one daughter, Wang Rongyue.

Because of this, Wang Jian loved Wang Rongyue very much, and even wanted to give Wang Rongyue all his family property as a dowry, so that she would have no worries for the rest of her life.

But it was also because of this that his younger siblings were jealous, and after his death, Wang Rongyue didn't even have a place to live in the Wang family.

After hearing this, Xie Tinglan thought for a while, and said, "If you really hate your uncle and aunt, you can think about the things they did, did they leave evidence and witnesses. Your father also sacrificed for the court. If you personally Go to Beijing to sue your uncle and aunt, and now you and your father will be given justice."

Wang Rongyue's tone and expression were very calm, and she shook her head slowly, "When my father was here, I treated my uncle and aunt very well. The fact that my uncle and aunt can handle my father's funeral can be regarded as my father did not treat them in vain during his lifetime. It's a close relative, if I really do that, I'm afraid that my father will blame me for being cruel when he is under the nine springs."
