A trace of surprise flashed on Princess Yan's face, and she looked at Mrs. Xu deeply: "Little sister-in-law, what are you doing with these words?" ”

"Am I not right?!" Mrs. Xu seemed to have some meaning of breaking the jar, "Don't fool people with lies!" Isn't Xiao Rui the heir of the prince?! It has been almost a month since he entered the Yan Palace, and even if the princess doesn't say a word, it is impossible to gag everyone's mouth, so that the palace does not dare to reveal a trace of confidentiality! Since the prince has decided to take back this child, he naturally intends to let him recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, otherwise he will directly ask him to continue to stay in the Xiao family, be a son to others, and then have the protection of the prince, are you afraid that the child will not have high-ranking officials to enjoy? As long as there is the care of the prince, he has made some contributions to the frontier, and it is not delusional to find a marquis immediately, and he will have some glory and wealth when the time comes, and he doesn't need to ask people to chew his tongue about his background!

But the prince still took people back, even his biological mother, so it can be seen that he is still counting on him to inherit the palace. Even if the emperor is not happy to call him the prince of Yan, at least he will give him the canonization of the king of the county, so that the prince will not break the incense. Such a child's identity is naturally extraordinary, shouldn't the princess care about his marriage? ! If he can be crowned as the prince, his wife will be the princess of King Yan, the future concubine of King Yan! How can an ordinary girl afford it?! Even if the princess is jealous of the child's background, she shouldn't ignore the overall situation and arbitrarily set a marriage match for him, right?! The Xie family is just a nouveau riche, and their ancestors are still businessmen, how can the daughters of such families afford the responsibility of the princess of King Yan?! ”

Mrs. Xu unceremoniously disclosed Xiao Rui's background, even if she didn't say Xiao Rui's name explicitly, let everyone understand who she was referring to. In the end, she also directly pointed at the Xie family and Xie Mulin, which already meant to slap the Xie family in the face. I'm afraid it's because today's plan is not going well, and seeing that the plan has failed, she doesn't want to make people happy.

Xie Mulin looked at Mrs. Xu with a calm face, surprised that Mrs. Xu was really capable of announcing Xiao Rui's identity.

What does this mean to her? Xiao Rui's name has been recorded in the clan jade, and it is a matter of time before his life experience is announced, not to mention it now, just because the emperor has an order first. In the eyes of Yan Wangfu, it is not difficult to accept that Xiao Rui's life story will be announced later, and many troubles can be avoided. In the eyes of Xiao Rui himself and Xie Mulin, postponing the announcement of their life history can also make their marriage less hindered. Xie Mulin felt that it would be easier for him to get involved in the complicated interpersonal relationships within the Yan Wangfu later. But there are reasons for postponing the announcement in all aspects, and what benefits can revealing this secret in advance bring to Mrs. Xu? Didn't she want to stuff the Thursday girl to Xiao Rui? For this reason, the first time they met, they kept stepping on Xie Mulin, Xiao Rui's fiancée. The secret was announced, and she couldn't have gotten her wish for it!

Xie Mulin just listened to the whispering of the crowd that slowly gathered around him with some annoyance, pursed his lips and looked at his mother Wen and eldest sister Xie Yinghui, a little worried about how they would react when they learned the news.

Wen and Xie Yinghui were dumbfounded. The Wen family sat alone, Xie Yinghui sat next to Xie Mulin, and immediately looked at the county lord of Yongping after coming back to his senses, and saw that although the county lord of Yongping was a little surprised, he did not show the meaning of refutation, as if Mrs. Xu's statement was not nonsense. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at her second sister Xie Mulin again.

Xie Mulin smiled bitterly at her and didn't say anything.

Xie Yinghui lowered her voice and asked, "Won't it?" You already knew about it?! ”

Xie Mulin also lowered his voice and replied to her: "Let's go home and talk about it." ”

Xie Yinghui didn't ask anymore, but stared at Mrs. Xu unkindly, eager to curse this poisonous woman who gave her sister no face!

Mrs. Xu continued to shout at Princess Yan: "Why didn't the princess speak? What is there to hide from such a thing?! You may not be happy to let outsiders know that King Yan has a queen, but this son was not born to you, but it is a matter of time before Xiao Rui wants to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors. If you deny it at this time, won't the prince slap you in the face when he announces the existence of an illegitimate child in the future? Even if the prince has always respected the princess, it is impossible for the princess to be willful in matters related to the heirs, right?! ”

"Are you finished?!" The county lord of Yongping couldn't stand it anymore, and unceremoniously stood up for his mother, "Little uncle, I call you a little uncle, do you think you are really my aunt?!" In what capacity are you questioning my mother?! When did my mother say that she was not happy to accept her brother?! After my brother came home, everything in his life was handled by his mother, and the mother-son relationship was deep! Don't try to sow discord! My mother's concubine set Xie Er as his wife for my brother, which naturally makes sense. Lord Xie is a serious imperial examination, a high-ranking official in the imperial court, a strict family education, and the second girl Xie is also knowledgeable and reasonable, talented and beautiful, what's wrong with this marriage? ! My brother was so happy that he didn't bother to think about any other cats and dogs! ”

Not to be outdone, Mrs. Xu reprimanded back: "The county lord has been willful since he was a child, disrespectful to his elders, and disregarded etiquette. But if you want to say that the second girl Xie is knowledgeable and gifted, talented and beautiful, and can match the only son of King Yan, then I will not be convinced! The ladies in Beiping City, if you talk about knowledge, etiquette, talent and appearance, who can compare to Yaqing?! Even she has never been looked at by the princess, so how can she say that the princess really has no selfishness in setting the marriage of the Xie family for the illegitimate son of the princess? ! ”

She glanced at Xie Mulin with disdain: "Forget if my grandfather is a businessman, I can't tell if the second girl Xie is a concubine, can she still compare with Yaqing?!" ”

Xie Mulin smiled at her: "Mrs. Xu, my mother is my father's original wife, whether it is the clan, the etiquette, or the court regulations, there is no doubt about this. How can you say that? ”

Mrs. Xu sneered: "If your mother is the original match, then who is Cao Shuqing of the Cao family?!" Don't talk about a flat wife, everyone in the world knows that when Cao Shuqing was still in the Xie family, your mother was just a second room! ”

Xie Mulin still smiled: "Madame's words are not right. My mother is indeed the original spouse, but the mother of the eldest brother and sister, Mrs. Cao, was also my father's equal wife. My father had two rooms and two rooms, and inherited the two rooms of incense, so he followed the decree of the court and married a two-room wife. As for Mrs. Cao's unkind treatment of my mother in the past, this does not mean anything. It's just that the concubines can't get along with each other, is Mrs. Xu very affectionate to her concubines? I also know that Mrs. Cao comes from a prominent background, and the world will inevitably misunderstand her relationship with my mother because of this, but ......"

She paused: "Could it be that a person who has two rooms and later marries a wife from a prominent background, and the original main room in front of him will be reduced to a side room of the second room, and he will not be restored?" Mrs. Xu, it's just that others say this, it's the foolishness of the world. But madam, you ...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate to say this kind of thing, right?! ”

Mrs. Xu's face turned pale from time to time.
