Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 169
Xie Zi'an looked at the two people in front of him, his grandmother and father whom he always respected in his heart, and felt chilling.

Xie Wanqing pulled Xie Zian's sleeve, shook her head at him, and said, "Brother, don't make grandma and father angry!"

In fact, what she wants to say is that it is useless to say these words, they will not listen to them, and they will not care.

What they care about is always only the glory and wealth, and what they call "the lintel of glory".

Family affection, even children, are nothing more than tools that they can use.

Xie Zian looked at Xie Wanqing, with pain in his eyes, Xie Wanqing just looked at him with the softest eyes, hoping to make him feel better.

At least in this family, he is not alone, and she treats each other with the same heart!

Xie Zian swallowed the fierce words that came to his lips, and finally just fell silent.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xie sighed, and said earnestly: "Zian, you are still young, and it is normal to have a hot head, but in the future, the Xie family will depend on you. You must not be confused, and advise your sister to find a day to go. A trip to the East Palace, to have a heart-to-heart talk with the crown prince, don't be stupid, ruining this marriage will be very detrimental to the Xie family!"

Xie Wanqing pursed her lips and remained silent. It was impossible for her to go to the East Palace to show her affection to the prince.

Xie Zi'an also kept his mouth shut, and just said: "Grandmother, shouldn't you ask about Xie Siru's fault? She committed such a big thing, and grandma and father just let it go?"

Liu Yuejiao hurriedly said: "Ru'er has been wronged so much, can't the Eldest Young Master take good care of her? After all, she is also your sister, why is the Eldest Young Master so partial?"

"I am partial? She did such a shameless thing, and you still protect her. This is partiality. The one who is really wronged is Wan'er, not her!"

Xie Zi'an's anger was provoked again, he really couldn't figure out, what kind of thinking and mentality this family had, that those who were really wrong would not be punished, and those who were really hurt would not be comforted.

"Zian, you are enough. Siru's incident is not her fault. She is exhausted now, so don't make it worse!" It was tears, and no amount of anger was extinguished.

Xie Siru cried even more fiercely, sobbing, as if she was about to die.

"Ru'er, my poor child!" Liu Yuejiao also hugged Xie Siru and cried together, the mother and daughter seemed to have been hurt a lot, and they didn't feel blushing at all.

Xie Wanqing just watched from the sidelines with a slightly mocking expression. She was used to such tricks, so she was no stranger to it.

Liu Yuejiao won't give up, she can't let Xie Siru suffer, let alone make her unable to marry for the rest of her life.

Sure enough, Liu Yuejiao cried for a while, knelt down and crawled to Xie Chongguang's feet, hugged his leg, and said in a heartbroken tone: "Master Xiang, you must save Ru'er, she was destroyed If he is innocent, even if he is the crown prince, shouldn’t he be responsible? This is Ru’er’s life, how could it be ruined like this?”

"Master Xiang, Ru'er is your biological daughter, the only child of this concubine, please pity her, pity me, if Ru'er can't survive, I can't survive either, Xiangye, I am willing to give At all costs, I just ask Master Xiang to help Ru'er!"

Liu Yuejiao burst into tears, her voice was hoarse, Xie Wanqing believed that her sadness was not just for Xie Chongguang to see, knowing that her daughter's future was about to be ruined, she was really anxious and sad.

But... this bit of sadness, compared to the injuries she has suffered, what is it?

It's too insignificant, far from enough to appease her hatred!
Xie Chongguang looked at Liu Yuejiao in embarrassment, and wanted to pull her up, but Liu Yuejiao refused, but kept begging Xie Chongguang to find a way to help Xie Siru.

"Yuejiao, what are you doing, get up and talk, this matter cannot be resolved in a short while, let me think about it!"

Xie Chongguang naturally wanted to help Xie Siru through this difficulty, after all, she was his beloved daughter, and Liu Yuejiao was his concubine who had been with him for many years, so he was naturally reluctant.

Xie Zi'an trembled with anger, his face turned blue, Xie Wanqing held him back, shook his head slightly, and signaled him not to be impulsive.

Mrs. Xie glanced at Liu Yuejiao, and said: "I know how to cry and beg at this time, what did you do earlier? My own daughter doesn't like it either, I think you are getting more and more outrageous!"

Liu Yuejiao beat her chest and stomped her feet and said: "Old madam, I know I was wrong, and I am so regretful that my intestines are green, if I know that such a terrible thing will happen when Ru'er goes out, even if I kill this concubine, I will not How dare you let her go!"

"Old madam, you have pity on this concubine, you have pity on Ru'er, you have watched her grow up, you don't want her life to be ruined like this, do you?"

Mrs. Xie gave a long sigh and said: "I'm not such a cruel person. Ru'er suffered a big loss this time. How can I not feel sorry for him? It's just about the prince. If the emperor doesn't let go, I'm afraid it won't work. If you have a way , also go back to her natal family and let the Liu family think of a way!"

Liu Yuejiao's father, after all, is the emperor's favored minister, so he should be able to talk, and with Xie Chongguang beating the drums from the side, there may be a glimmer of hope.

After hearing this, Liu Yuejiao also felt that it made sense, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you for your kindness, old lady, I will go back to my mother's house tomorrow and ask my father to come forward!"

"Well, it's getting late. My old bones can't stand the toss, so I'll rest first. If you have nothing else to do, go back and rest separately. If there's anything else, we'll talk about it tomorrow!" Mrs. Xie was getting old, she couldn't bear it anymore, and her energy was exhausted, so she left first.

Xie Chongguang glanced at Xie Wanqing, and said: "It's not that your father doesn't know that you have been wronged, but compared to your sister, you have nothing to lose, and you will still be able to marry into the East Palace in the future, so don't worry too much about your sister , After all, they are my sisters!"

Xie Wanqing swallowed the anger in her heart, looked at Xie Chongguang, and said, "Wan'er will write down what my father said!"

Xie Chongguang thought she had listened to it, but he was quite satisfied, nodded, and said approvingly: "You are very sensible, so my father can rest assured, the prince, you have to hurry up, it is also for your future, don't you want to do it?" A pair of resentful couples?"

Xie Wanqing remained silent, and Xie Chongguang ignored her, but beckoned for Liu Yuejiao to follow him.

Liu Yuejiao glanced at Xie Siru, and said: "Ru'er, you go back and have a good rest first, I will definitely think of a way about this!"

Xie Siru nodded, although she was still crying, she was much more restrained than before.

After Xie Chongguang and Liu Yuejiao left, Lin Mengyao, who had been silent all this time, came forward, pulled Xie Wanqing, and said, "Wan'er, you... hey, this is really annoying, why didn't you let me What about talking?"

"Ma'am, it's useless to talk too much. You have seen the attitude of father and grandmother. Is there any way we can change it?" Xie Wanqing showed a helpless expression.

Lin Mengyao pouted, and said, "This... this is too wrong, I'll help you persuade Xiangye!"

"Ma'am, it's better not to do so much, so as not to offend father and trouble Madam, you should go back and rest first!" Xie Wanqing didn't want Lin Mengyao to help, but she couldn't ask Lin Mengyao to help.

Lin Mengyao has a straightforward temper, and she is afraid of doing bad things with good intentions.

What's more, this matter had nothing to do with Lin Mengyao in the first place, her important task now is how to share favor with Liu Yuejiao.

Lin Mengyao also showed a hint of embarrassment, and said, "Sorry, Wan'er, I can't help you!"

"It's okay, you, you're doing well, you've helped me a lot!" If Lin Mengyao continued to be domineering, she might offend Xie Chongguang, and instead treat her coldly.

When Liu Yuejiao gains power again, won't the efforts she and her brother put in before be in vain?
Lin Mengyao stuck out her tongue, understood what Xie Wanqing meant, so she stopped talking and left with her people.

Only Xie Zi'an brother and sister were left in the flower hall. They looked at each other, but they didn't know what to say.

Xie Zian finally sighed and said, "I'll take you back!"

"Okay!" Xie Wanqing didn't refuse either, originally Xie Zi'an also dropped by.

The two walked quietly on the road, Lingshu and Su Wen held the lamps in front, keeping some distance away for them to talk.

Xie Zi'an blamed himself: "Wan'er, father and grandmother are too partial!"

"Well, eccentricity is second, because for grandma, Xie Siru is also a good chess game. If it can be used, it will be good, but if it is useless, she will be heartbroken!" Xie Wanqing analyzed.

Xie Zi'an asked, "Aren't you sad?"

"Sad?" Xie Wanqing repeated, "I haven't been sad for a long time!"

One sentence is enough to express her heartache. When she should be sad, she almost shed tears all day long. In those dark days, she longed for her father to show up and take her out of the devil's den.

Then... never, he never appeared, just let her be tortured by Xie Siru, and let her fend for herself.

Because he was afraid, afraid that getting contaminated with her would affect his future and ruin his glory and wealth!

My heart is already cold, so why would I feel sad?

Xie Zi'an couldn't help being sad, he stopped and said to Xie Wanqing: "Wan'er, I will not let Xie Siru go!"

"Brother, it's not yet time. If the sky wants to kill her, she must first make her crazy. Let's just watch and see how she sinks into the mud step by step!" Xie Wanqing said firmly.

Xie Zi'an asked: "If the Liu family is allowed to come forward and my father helps to clear it up, maybe Xie Siru can really get into the East Palace. How will you deal with yourself then? How the world will laugh at you, have you ever thought about it?"

"Well, I know!" Xie Wanqing replied softly. When Xie Siru in her previous life was favored day by day and was more powerful than her concubine, she had already heard enough of those gossips, and she was also used to those people's sympathetic or sarcastic eyes.

But this time, it's different, she just wants Xie Siru to marry Xuanyuan Ming, and then stay with him forever!
