Chapter 24: Expectations and Rejections

Back then, when Xu Yi sent You Xi to the elders of the You family, he thought that he was doing a good deed, because he happened to hear several men in the caravan talking drunk.

A group of shrewd and sophisticated people, after getting drunk, made a lot of nonsense, just fighting the idea of Youxi, who was only ten years old, and the most vicious person also said with a lewd face, "Don't look at the young man who wants to go out of Beijing with me, he is still young, and he doesn't wear anything, but I see the skin under his clothes, tsk, white and smooth, and it can be broken by blowing, if we raise him to be a prostitute, we will definitely make a lot of money." ”

Hearing this, even if Xu Yi never knew Youxi, he would not let her follow the caravan out of Beijing again, so he took it upon himself to send Youxi back to Youxi's house.

Back then, the day after Xu Yi sent You Xi home, he heard that You Xi, who had broken his leg, committed suicide by throwing himself into the lake.

You Xi was broken and wanted to commit suicide by throwing himself into the lake, which brought a lot of shock to Xu Yi, so he went to check what happened in the lower reaches of the river in the past few years, and then learned everything that was disgusted by the You family since You Xi was seven years old and his grandfather's house was ruined.

For many years after that, Xu Yi had a kind of pity for Youxi, which had nothing to do with love, but it would make him involuntarily pay attention to Youxi and look forward to Youxi living a stable life.

After knowing that Youxi was having a bad time in You's family, Xu Yi also did one thing, that is, secretly looking for Youxi's mother-in-law.

You Xi is a girl, although she was born in You's family, but according to the law, you must be married before the age of fifteen, and after you are married, you Xi is the person of her husband's family.

Xu Yi thought at that time that since his mother's family did not want to be good to Youxi, then he would find a good husband for Youxi, and then support Youxi behind his back to ensure that she would have no worries for the rest of her life.

But after You Xi was twelve years old, both the You family and You Xi themselves had their own thoughts, and this matter did not come to pass.

……

Xu Yi sent his comrades away and went to find Youxi.

At this time, You Xi was talking to Liu Shuo about what she had just been interrupted by Zhao Xian.

You Xi wants to sneak into the Mansion of Marquis Wenxiang, let Marquis Wenxiang discipline his disobedient son, and then use this to rescue Hongdou.

"No, Miss Xi, people are a family, how can they listen to you, don't let you fold in when the time comes." When Xu Yi came over, he heard Liu Shuo's words of disapproval of You Xi's idea.

"The Marquis of Wenxiang is upright, you want to find him to discipline his son, and then take the opportunity to return your maid, but the Marquis of Wenxiang is the most filial, his ridiculous son Guy Yin is afraid of turning into his current shape under the hands of the old Fengjun of his family, as long as the old Fengjun of the Hou Mansion appears, he will lose everything." Xu Yi also briefly expressed his opinion on this idea.

The Marquis of Wenxiang Mansion is not unpopular in the court, the Marquis of Wenxiang and the eldest prince of the Hou Mansion both hold important positions in the court, and to be able to do this, first of all, both of them have family backgrounds and abilities, and secondly, both of them are not extremely corrupt and unreasonable, as long as they are not hindered by their interests, they are also happy to be a good official and let themselves have a good reputation.

Youxi is just an ordinary civilian, and what he wants to ask Marquis Wenxiang to do is just to ask Marquis Wenxiang to be the master, and let go of the little lady who was forcibly kidnapped by his unsuccessful son, as long as Youxi sees Marquis Wenxiang, the wording is appropriate, and Marquis Wenxiang agrees to Youxi.

However, there is also an accident here, that is, the old lady of the Marquis Wenxiang Mansion.

The emperor loves the eldest son and the people love the child, the son of Wenxianghou who behaves absurdly, the youngest in the Wenxianghou Mansion, has been pampered by the Mansion since he was a child, he was five years old, the pox almost died, the old Taijun was almost followed to half a life, and then the little son of Wenxiang Hou crossed the catastrophe safely, and the old Taijun took him as a pain in his liver, and easily did not allow others to say half a bad word.

"If the old lady of his family messes around, I have a way." You Xi said for sure.

"What's the solution?"

"You don't know." You Xi glanced at Xu Yi vigilantly, "You don't eavesdrop on others behind others, brother, let's go." ”

You Xi pulled Liu Shuo away, as if he didn't see that Xu Yi was here to help her.

Youxi's method is that if she is really helpless, she will show the holy decree given to her by Emperor Hongxi and force people to come back.

This should actually be the most effective way, and now many people think that the You family was exonerated because You Xi entered the palace to face the saint, saying that Emperor Hong Xi's mind was changed, as long as those powerful ministers were not stupid, they would not move her for things that were not profitable, but would sell her face.

But there are also drawbacks in this, the Marquis of Wenxiang's Mansion is a family that can go directly to the heavens, and his family is the family of the Sixth Prince's Yue, You Xi has just offended the Six Princes and Yan Guifei, if You Xi shows the holy decree to let them go, afterwards the Marquis of Wenxiang went to Emperor Hongxi to say something unfavorable to her, so that she left an impression in Emperor Hongxi's heart that she dared to go to the courtyard of the Hou Mansion with a holy decree, and things would not be beautiful.

"You want to use the holy decree to blackmail Marquis Wenxiang."

When You Xi and Liu Shuo had already walked out of Xu Yi seven or eight steps away, Xu Yi blurted out the plan to travel to the river.

You Xi looked back at Xu Yi in a daze, "Again, there may not be an accident." ”

"After all, you just don't want to have anything to do with me, it's just ......" After Xu Yi finished speaking, the corners of his lips drooped, waved his sleeves, and turned to leave.

You Xi looked at Xu Yi's departing back and pursed the corners of his lips.

Seeing this, Liu Shuo tried to reconcile, "Miss Xi, I see that the errand is chivalrous, and you seem to have known him for a long time, why don't you ask him how to save the red bean." ”

"Brother, if I tell you that he first presented the evidence of the upstream family's crimes, and then personally supervised the person who copied the You family, do you still think he will have a chivalrous heart for me?"

Liu Shuo was surprised, this person was ...... Who is this man......

In fact, in the past few years when Liu Shuo has known You Xi, he has also indirectly dealt with Xu Yi, sometimes listening to You Xi talk about what she has seen and heard, he followed and scolded Xu Yi when he was indignant, and praised Xu Yi for his diligence and love for the people when he was happy, but because he had never met Xu Yi, he never knew that the dog official and the good official in his mouth were all the same person.

"Brother, let's find a way to save the red beans ourselves."

Liu Shuo and You Xi walked side by side for a while, Liu Shuo said seriously, "Miss Xi, for the people, that superior did not do anything wrong, and you are also one of the people, you are different from those people in the You family, and that superior will not treat you differently." ”

You Xi froze in place, his expression deep, as if he was about to pass through the dark clouds.

"Eh, brother, you have to believe in our own strength." You Xi's tone is coquettish, his eyebrows and eyes are crooked, and the smile on his lips is like a comfortable sunny day after the dark clouds have passed, which makes people feel warm and velvety.
