She had no relationship with the Su family, so there was no need for her to risk her life along with the Su family.
This was the last plan in her heart. If she had to kill everyone in her family as a last resort, she would definitely not die in vain.
Those who have died once know the preciousness of life better than anyone else.
She prepared for the worst and placed her last hope on her parents' family.
And now the old lady of the Su family doesn't want to get involved with the Xu family. She had wanted to invite Xu Xiuyi here just for this matter.
Xu Xiuyi's ancestor was granted a first-class title. Xu Xiuyi's great-grandfather saved the country and drove Emperor Xiaowu. This period is recorded in the history books. Old great-grandfather Xu was a great hero who was famous for centuries. Old great-grandfather Xu inherited the legacy of old great-grandfather Xu.
Mr. Xu is an errand of the Hanlin Academy. The young master of the Xu family is both civilized and military. He has already received many praises from the emperor before taking the scientific examination. If he gets the second place this year, no one else will be able to get the top spot.
Old Mrs. Su just knew that the Xu family had some status in the court, so she wanted to cling to this relative to see if there could be some room for change in the matter of Concubine Xing's master.
Half of Mrs. Su's sad tears were shed for Xu Xiuyi.
"Mom, please stop crying. Otherwise, I will go back to my parents' house first and let my parents try to find out what is going on. Now we don't know where the emperor was injured or how serious it is. We only heard from the doctors at the Imperial Hospital.
The old man's bluffing can scare him into falling ill."
Old Mrs. Su was crying with snot and tears just waiting for Xu Xiuyi's words.
At that moment, my heart was filled with gratitude. She held Xu Xiuyi's hand tightly with both hands and said sincerely: "Xiu Yi, if your family can help with this matter, mother will put it aside first. You are the eldest son of our Su family.
My benefactor, the position of head of the Su family from now on will be yours."
Head of house.
To be honest, Su Jiangshi was eager to do this kind of thing of taking care of the food, drinking, and sleeping of the whole family, but Xu Xiuyi was not interested at all.
She just smiled: "Without further delay, I will go to my parents' house right now. Mother, you don't have to worry. If the emperor really wants to cause trouble for our family, the imperial edict will have arrived by now, so I will go first.
Yes, just relax and wait for my news."
"Well, it's all up to you."
Mrs. Su put all her hopes on Xu Xiuyi.
He personally sent Xu Xiuyi out, and also ordered someone to prepare her sedan chair for Xu Xiuyi. Along the way, he asked his maid Yingbi to take Su Xiuyi to the gate of the Duke's Mansion.
This is the home in my memory, but this is the first time I have actually set foot in it.
The residences of officials' homes are naturally different from those of merchants. In addition to being magnificent, they are more elegant.
The Su family mostly has houses and courtyards, while the Xu family has three steps to the first floor, ten steps to the pavilion, nine winding corridors, an occasional small pavilion, and three or two study rooms.
Xu Xiuyi's brother Xu Lanqing was a talented man with extensive knowledge. Therefore, unlike other families, the Xu family had many study rooms. Xu Lanqing also liked bamboo, so the outside of each study room was full of bamboos.
All the way from the door to the old man's house, he passed through three bamboo forests.
Xu Xiuyi's father and brother were not at home, only the old man was there. When Xu Xiuyi went there, the old man Xu had already received his reward and was waiting to welcome this precious granddaughter.
As the only daughter in the family, Xu Xiuyi was regarded as the jewel in the palm of her hand. She was favored by thousands of people. Kuang was well-educated and gentle since she was a child. She was loved by her grandfather, so he was reluctant to let her enter the palace to choose a concubine and marry her off early.
The third master of the Su family.
This was the first time Xu Xiuyi went home after Su Jinyuan died.
