Chapter 8: What Bad Things Have You Done?
Xie Xiaoyao just took a cup of tea, and when he heard her words, he slammed the teacup on the ground, and said angrily: "You killed the person, and you also passed on the order to kill the patrol battalion, and you only now know that you came to ask me?" β
Xiao Nian was stunned for a moment, and said in a lost voice: "Xie Xiaoyao, what do you mean by this?!" "After so many years, Xie Xiaoyao is still yelling at her for the first time, and it is because of Xie Yanwan's mother and daughter!
"What do you mean? She is a little girl, what waves can she make? Now that it's like this, you're scared and know that you've come to ask me, why didn't you come to ask me when you were all killed? Speaking of this, Xie Xiaoyao snorted and said, "What you did at the beginning, I turned a blind eye, but I thought that you were the housewife of the family, and you should be given this dignity." But I don't want to, as a housewife, you are so intolerant! β
"I don't have the capacity to accommodate people? Xie Xiaoyao, has your conscience been eaten by dogs? How many concubines have you accepted over the years, and why have I ever given any opinion? Besides, Xue Sujin's death at the beginning, do you dare to say that it has nothing to do with you, but now you come to question me, Xie Xiaoyao, you are so shameless! β
Xiao Nian was trembling with anger, she had been having an extremely bad time in the past few days, and at this moment, she was yelled at by Xie Xiaoyao for no reason, and she felt even more fueled.
Hearing this, Xie Xiaoyao's face was a little ugly, and he waved his hand irritably: "I'm too lazy to bother with you!" But one thing I want to say is that whatever you do in the future, you are not allowed to use the name of a patrol battalion! β
"Hmph, if you want to protect that little slut, just say it!" Xiao Nian gritted his teeth and said this, and finally added: "Xie Xiaoyao, don't forget how you made your fortune in the first place!" β
After saying this, she didn't look at Xie Xiaoyao's face anymore, turned around and walked out. Not surprisingly, there was a crackling sound behind him.
Xie Yanwan on the roof was still unsatisfied, and when he unintentionally looked up, he saw Feng Qi's expression in control, and immediately smiled at him, and asked, "What did you do badly?" β
Feng Qizhi didn't pay attention to her, just reached out and hugged her slender waist, and fell to the ground in three or two vertical steps.
It wasn't until after leaving Shangshu Mansion that he glanced at Xie Yanwan's curious face, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Well, this seat didn't do anything, but I just knocked him a sum of money, what's the matter, are you distressed?" β
"What do I have to worry about?" Xie Yanwan sneered, and understood the meaning of his words, and immediately said indignantly: "I said Chitose Master, you don't look like a person who is short of money, why are you extorting money everywhere?" Besidesβyou just blackmailed Xie Xiaoyao's old horseman, why bother to exploit me, a little poor man? β
What kind of person is this Feng Qizhi, who can make this rich Chitose Lord say a sum of money, there must be not a few. But this guy blackmailed Xie Xiaoyao, and he didn't even let go of her little mosquito legs!
Xie Yanwan's guess was right, the amount of silver that Feng Qi knocked was indeed not a small amount.
On that day, Xiao Nian sent out to hunt down Xie Yanwan and had no way to say anything to Feng Qizhi, and Feng Qizhi deliberately spared a person's life, just to send a message to Xie Xiaoyao.
And in the past two days, he asked Xuanmo to send a message back to the palace, and someone suppressed Xie Xiaoyao's urgent performance and did not approve it, until Xie Xiaoyao sent someone to send 10,000 taels of gold, and then ordered someone to take the official procedure away.
However, the real reason why Xie Xiaoyao was so angry was that Feng Qizhi specially wrote him a letter, in which Xie Xiaoyao scolded him like a grandson, and the spearhead was directed at Xiao Nian.
So when Xiao Nian came to the study today, Xie Xiaoyao was so angry.
Feng Qi stopped a few words, and Xie Yanwan suddenly opened his eyebrows and smiled: "The thousand-year-old master is really good." It is estimated that Xiao Nian has never let Xie Xiaoyao scold so miserably in his life.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a carriage coming out of Shangshufu, which was resplendent and decorated.
And the direction in which the carriage went was the eldest princess's mansion.
Seeing this, Xie Yanwan sneered, straightened his clothes and said, "Let's go back too." β
can force Xiao Nian to go back to her parents' house to complain, and it is not far from picking her up. After all, this legendary eldest princess probably did a lot of sins when she was young, so after she got old, she especially believed in ghosts and gods.
Seeing Xie Yanwan walking towards the small courtyard, Feng Qizhi's eyes had a little more tenderness that he hadn't even noticed, and he shook off his wide-sleeved fluttering robe, and walked over.
Xie Yanwan guessed well, Xiao Nian did go to the eldest princess's mansion, and he still went to complain.
"Mother, I really can't swallow this breath!"
On the throne sat a woman with white hair and a pair of eyes that were particularly sharp, not angry and self-threatening. She doesn't have much jewelry all over her body, but everything is priceless. You don't have to speak, and you can bring out a natural luxury all over your body.
It is Xiao Nian's biological mother, the emperor's aunt, the eldest princess Shangguan Ying.
Seeing Xiao Nian's appearance, Shangguan Ying put down the Buddha beads in her hand, raised her eyelids and said, "How big a matter is it worth your anger?" Besides, didn't you want this son-in-law at the beginning, and now being angry with him can only show that you have no eyes! β
"Mother, even you say that about me!" Xiao Nian bit his lip, and said angrily: "Then I was bullied to death, anyway, you don't care about me." β
"This palace can't tell you?" Shangguan Ying glanced at her, waved back the people in the room, and then said: "If you had been careful back then, and asked the Taoist priest to do it, how could there be today's disaster?" β
When she said this, Xiao Nian's face suddenly changed, and she gritted her teeth and said: "It's like this now, I also regret it, I should have let that slut's soul fly away back then!" β
"Alright."
Shangguan Ying put the teacup in his hand on the table, hated iron and said: "Anping, you are nearly forty years old now, how can you talk but have no brains?" β
"Mother, I-"
Xiao Nian wanted to say something, but after seeing Shangguan Ying's expression, he frowned and said: "Now that my husband is furious about this, and the ghost of that slut is still lingering, is it possible that I really want to take that little slut home?" β
"Why not?"
Shangguan Ying pinched her forehead and said casually: "It's just a little girl, as long as you don't get killed, isn't it up to you to knead the round and flattened it?" After a while, Master Lichen of Wutai Mountain will come back, and this palace will ask him to go to your mansion to have a look. When you find a way to eradicate that terrible ghost, isn't this Xie Yanwan at your disposal? β
As soon as she said this, Xiao Nian suddenly said with joy: "Thank you, mother." β
"And you, although Xie Xiaoyao got ahead because of the recommendation of this palace, but now he is the head of the Shangshu, and his protΓ©gΓ©s are all over the place, today is different from the past, if you are like back then, you will have to suffer."
Although these words are ugly, Xiao Nian also knows that it is the truth. Today is indeed different from the past, Xie Xiaoyao was only a four-grade Beijing official back then, but the eldest princess was a hero who supported the new emperor to ascend the throne. Over the years, Xie Xiaoyao has become a high and powerful person, but the eldest princess's only son died early, and Xiao Haoran is a man who is obsessed with landscapes, which has led to the decline of the eldest princess's mansion.
Thinking of this, Xiao Nian was a little frightened for a while, but his face was still relieved: "Mother rest assured, her daughter understands, and she will be cautious in her words and deeds in the future." β
......
Xie Yanwan didn't know about the conversation in the eldest princess's mansion, but after seeing that the notices on the street were all taken down, she knew that she was going back to Xie's house.
"Qiaosui, this is all our money, I will leave it all for you. You can stay here for a while, and after the nurse is buried, I will arrange for you to leave the city. β
Hearing Xie Yanwan's words, Qiao Sui suddenly shook his head and said, "Where does Miss go, Qiao Sui will follow you!" "The Xie family is a wolf's den, and she must not let Miss go on an adventure alone.
As soon as she said this, Xie Yanwan suddenly said sharply: "What are you going to do when you go back?" The body of the nurse is still in Xie Mansion now, is it possible that you want to let her die without seeing it! β
She had never spoken to Qiao Sui so fiercely, Qiao Sui was bluffed by her like this, and knelt down and said: "Miss, my mother's wish is that you are safe, if Qiao Sui is here, at least I can protect you with my own life." β
Xie Yanwan naturally knew that it was precisely because of this that she couldn't go with her. When she went back this time, she was determined to die and let the entire Xie family perish. The nurse has died for her, and she can't take it in Qiaosui anymore, otherwise I'll be so sorry for the nurse.
"I'll at least know how to do kung fu, but what about you, what will you? You keep saying to protect me, but in fact it will only drag me down. Xie Yanwan said coldly: "That's it, if you still recognize me as a young lady, just listen to my orders." β
Qiao Sui cried for a long time, and couldn't persuade Xie Yanwan, so she had to kowtow and say, "Yes, Miss." Qiaosui is waiting for you to come back. β
It wasn't until Qiaosui was arranged that Xie Yanwan quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
A man's voice sounded behind him, mixed with a bit of banter: "Unexpectedly, you maid is quite loyal." β
Hearing this, Xie Yanwan looked back and smiled: "I'm ashamed, I can't compare to the loyalty of your subordinates who are Chitose Master." β
As soon as she said this, she saw Feng Qizhi's expression darkened a little.
In the past two days, she also knew a little bit of the reason from Feng Qizhi's behavior. After he returned to the palace, it seemed that there would be a big trouble, and that trouble had not been solved yet, so he had been hiding outside.
It's just that Feng Qi didn't talk about these things, so she naturally wouldn't ask.
Feng Qizhi was choked by her, shook off his robe, and said disdainfully: "You girl, sooner or later you will die on your mouth." β
Xie Yanwan bent his lips and smiled, and his eyebrows and eyes curled: "I borrow your auspicious words." β
In the past few days with him, Xie Yanwan also found out a bit of his temperament. On the surface, it looks extremely vicious, but in fact, as long as it doesn't touch his bottom line, this person is a paper tiger with teeth and claws.
Of course, Xie Yanwan didn't dare to touch his bottom line. After all, Feng Qizhi, who incarnated as a night killer, still makes people's scalp tingle when he thinks about it.
