Xie Anjun's eyelids twitched.

He swallowed and said with difficulty: "Why would father ask this?"

The eldest princess is now Princess Huaning, and also Xie Anjun’s wife, Xiao Jiayi.

More importantly, she is the apple of the imperial concubine's eye.

Xie Pei said sternly: "Just tell me, yes! Or no!"

"Of course not!"

Xie Anjun shuddered, sat up straight, tilted his neck, and read every word.

"My son knows the seriousness of the matter, why would he involve her!?"

Xie Pei looked into his eyes for a long time before he finally narrowed his eyes.

With a "bang", Xie Pei threw the stack of letters onto the table.

"You are not completely confused! Her identity is sensitive, and she is spoiled and willful. If you are not careful, she will cause a lot of trouble! Right now, the Imperial Concubine and the Second Prince are already in a bad situation, and we must not make any more mistakes."

Huo Yucheng's case is closely related to Xiao Chengxuan. After the emperor ordered a thorough investigation, that person has been staying in the mansion and has not left the house.

Princess Huaning and he are from the same mother. If she is caught in trouble, then Xiao Chengxuan will not be clean either.

Xie Anjun lowered his head, his palms were already covered with sticky sweat.

"My son sent someone to the prison to gather information. I had no other intentions. I just thought, after all, we are friends, and I wanted to make him feel better within my ability..."

"idiot!"

Xie Pei suddenly interrupted him, and was so angry that he

"The ten-day deadline given by His Majesty is coming soon! Those who should be tried and those who should not be tried have probably already passed several times! Whether Xu Jie lives or dies is his fate, it is not your turn to worry about it! Do you know what will happen if those people find out that you sent someone to smooth things over for him?"

Among all the civil and military officials in the court, Xie Anjun was not the only one who was on good terms with Xu Jie.
But who stepped forward at this time?
Everyone wished they had never had anything to do with Xu Jie! But Xie Anjun was so good! He still committed a crime against the wind!

"You think you are the only smart person in the world! With your tricks, can you really hide it from those people in the Dali Temple? If I hadn't stopped you in time, you would have been in prison by now!"

Xie Anjun had never been scolded like this before, but this person was his father, so he had to endure the grievance.

Of course he knew that Xu Jie's life or death was uncertain this time, and if an ordinary person was involved, there would be no good ending.

But this matter is related to his brother-in-law, how can he really sit back and do nothing?
The man in the room was worried about his brother and couldn't sleep at night. In addition, he had his own selfish motives, so he secretly sent someone to get information so that he could respond.

But he didn't expect to be stopped by his father halfway.

Of course, these words must never be spoken.

Xie Pei didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing him hanging his head and not saying anything, he thought he knew he was wrong, and his heart softened.

After all, he is the eldest son who has high hopes. If he was not really mad, he would not have scolded him so harshly.

"Forget it! Go back now! Don't get involved in this matter again!"

As if Xie Anjun had been pardoned, he immediately kowtowed and said, "I know I was wrong! Thank you, father, for your forgiveness!"

Xie Pei waved his hand.

Xie Anjun bowed and walked out, carefully closing the door.

The room was quiet again. Xie Pei slowly sat down on the table. After a long time, he let out a long sigh.

It's not that he is unkind, it's just that the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is already treading on thin ice and cannot afford to make any more mistakes.

He thought the boss was a smart man and had always placed high hopes on him, but today he suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a wrong judgment.

How can we safely hand over such a huge Xie family to him? (End of this chapter)
