Chapter 232 Breaking into the Weiwu Marquis's Mansion
Wen Qingwan and her husband had just arranged the dishes for dinner when they heard a noise coming from the door, as if a large number of people were rushing in.

Xiao Jin has amazing hearing ability. "Wanwan, there are many people coming to our gate. Judging from the footsteps, there are quite a lot of people. I want to see who dares to cause trouble at the gate of our mansion."

"Husband, I'll go with you. Anyone who comes here at this time must be looking for trouble."

The couple heard a commotion and Xiao Jin hugged his wife and jumped to the gate using light skills.

When he looked up, he saw a group of guards of unknown origin trying to break in, while the guards of the Marquis' Mansion were trying their best to stop them.

The two sides were confronting fiercely at the gate. The sunlight slanted down, reflecting on the swinging swords, flashing with cold light.

The enemy's guards were wearing armor and holding spears, and they were obviously guards from a military general's family.

Although the guards of the Weiwu Marquis' Mansion were not wearing armor, they were wearing tight-fitting clothes of the same color and were very combat-ready.

The guards on both sides all had ferocious looks on their faces, swords clashed, and flames flew everywhere. They must have been so furious that they had lost their minds.

The atmosphere of this battle was extremely tense. The air was already filled with the smell of blood, and the sounds of fighting were somewhat deafening.

The couple was shocked by the sudden fighting scene. They couldn't help but hold each other's hands tightly, their hearts filled with anger.

Xiao Jin gently put Wen Qingwan down, tapped his feet and leaped in front of everyone. He swung his palm and knocked the other person down.

"Tell me, who gave you the courage to act wildly in front of my gate?" Xiao Jin's voice sounded calm, but it carried a murderous aura.

A trace of fear flashed across the faces of the Fan Mansion guards. This sudden fighting power caught them off guard.

They lay on the ground and looked up, oh my god, it turned out to be the mighty marquis.

The legendary Marquis Weiwu was indeed no simple man. He defeated more than a dozen of their elite guards with just one move.

They were the most powerful guards around General Fan, and recently a series of incidents have occurred in Fan's mansion.

The old lady asked the general to have his personal guards teach martial arts to the guards of the Zhenxi Marquis' Mansion during his vacation.

I heard that the old lady had killed a group of guards before, saying that they were not good enough in protecting their master, and they once despised those guards.

But who knew that Madam Fan was such an unreasonable person, and she suddenly asked them to send her to the Weiwu Marquis Mansion.

Come if you want! The guards at the gate of the Weiwu Marquis Mansion said that no one can enter without an invitation.

But Madam Fan asked them to force their way in. They were stunned at the time and now they didn't know how to deal with this dangerous situation.

Could it be that the old lady found out that their great general’s daughter had married into the Marquis of Weiwu’s mansion?

Madam Fan stepped on the servant's back and slowly got down from the gorgeous carriage, "I greet Marquis Xiao."

Although Xiao Jin is not very old, he has made outstanding military achievements and was personally conferred the title of Marquis of Weiwu by the emperor. He has a noble status and a prominent position. Even Madam Fan has to bow to him when she sees him.

"Excuse me, who are you?" Xiao Jin's voice was cold, and his demeanor revealed an unshakable majesty.

Old Madam Fan's expression changed slightly. Her eyes stayed on Xiao Jin for a moment. He really looked like his grandfather.

Then she smiled slightly, looking extremely kind, "Marquis Weiwu, I have heard of your great name for a long time, and seeing you today, I can see that your reputation is well-deserved."

"..."

Xiao Jin stood at the gate, with no intention of inviting Madam Fan into the house, and even less desire to say anything more.

When the old lady of the Fan family saw that the young man in front of her had no intention of inviting her into the house, she was very angry in her heart, but she couldn't show it on her face.

She is a daughter of the Su family in the capital city. Duke Anguo is her elder brother. The Su family is a family of scholars and officials, and has inherited family traditions for hundreds of years.

When she was young, she had experienced ups and downs. For example, her lifelong love was the grandfather of the young man in front of her, the old Marquis of Cheng'en. But in the end, she married the old Marquis of Zhenxi, who was not as good as the old Marquis of Cheng'en, and her life was smooth sailing.

But she always felt unhappy and had been competing with Xia Ziyan for more than 40 years.

She was a daughter of the Su family, a distinguished family, while Xia Ziyan was only the daughter of a sixth-rank official.

Her two sons were very competitive, while Xia Ziyan's two sons were incompetent. She won, but she was still unhappy.

Because Xia Ziyan's two sons were that man's, and that man only married Xia Ziyan in his life.

She was so outstanding that her husband not only took two concubines, but also gave birth to a illegitimate son and two illegitimate daughters.

How could Xia Ziyan have such good deeds that she not only married him but also he never took a concubine in his entire life.

This made her envious and jealous, and even more upset.

If the old lady of the Xiao family knew that old lady Fan envied her, she wouldn't know whether to cry or laugh.

The old Marquis Cheng'en did not have a concubine, but he didn't even want to sleep with his own wife. If it weren't for the purpose of leaving an offspring, he probably wouldn't even want to enter her yard!

Why envy her?

But Madam Fan wouldn't say it, so Madam Xiao didn't know that she was actually envied and jealous by others.

Old Madam Fan relied on the power of the Su and Fan families to marry the legitimate daughter of the Xiao family to the illegitimate son of the Fan family. However, she was not only unsatisfied, but also very painful.

After all, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family is the daughter of her beloved. She treats her well and feels that Xia Ziyan is taking advantage of her.

Torturing her makes me feel sorry for him!

After all, it was her father who made her break off the engagement in the first place, and he had never done anything unfair to her.

Treating her well or not is a torture for herself, tearing her heart apart for decades.

Although she was envious and jealous in her heart, she was self-disciplined and respectful throughout her life and never did anything out of line.

She worked tirelessly for the Fan family, took good care of her husband and children, and always maintained her tenacity and perseverance.

She is the pillar of the Fan family and a role model and example in the hearts of everyone in Shangjing City.

Under her guidance and words, her two sons are very outstanding, her daughter married the current emperor, her eldest grandson is also very outstanding, and her granddaughter is about to marry the fifth prince.

And what about Xia Ziyan!
She had not been in charge of the household for many years and it was said that she had been a vegetarian and chanting Buddhist scriptures all day long. She almost believed it.

But ever since she married her grandson's wife, she has been eating meat in large mouthfuls and going out to play in the suburbs from time to time. Is she a vegetarian and Buddhist?
What made her even more unbearable was that her outstanding eldest son brought his entire family to the Xiao Mansion for a wedding banquet.

Especially when her second daughter-in-law brought her most beloved granddaughter back to her parents' home, she couldn't bear it.

So she hurried over and wanted to call them all back home, but she saw Xiao Jin blocking the door.

"I am the mother of the Marquis of Zhenxi and the mother-in-law of your eldest aunt. I heard that the two younger brothers of the Marquis of Weiwu are getting married today, so I came here to ask for a glass of wine."

"Xiao Wen greets Old Madam Fan. Your presence brings honor to our Xiao Mansion. You only need to send someone to inform us, and my husband and I will definitely go out with the whole family to welcome you."

As Wen Qingwan spoke, she walked over to Xiao Jin, took his hand, and hinted with her eyes that he should not go too far.

"Are you the wife of Marquis Weiwu? You are so beautiful." Old Madam Fan said kindly.

She was really stunned by the person in front of her. She had an enchanting figure and a graceful body. She was wearing a simple and elegant brocade dress that made her look elegant and ethereal, like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world.
