"Don't worry, Jiao'er, my father will definitely vent his anger on you." Yu Ruiwen said bitterly.
"Master Marquis, this is the Marquis of Zhengyuan's Mansion." For fear that Yu Ruiwen would do something contrary to common sense again, Qian hurriedly pulled his sleeves and reminded him in a low voice.
"So what if it's the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion?" Yu Ruiwen snorted coldly.
"The Marquis of Zhengyuan fought for the country. Although he is not here now, his power still remains. Moreover, it is the Marquis and the county prince who have passed away now. No matter where it comes from, the Marquis should bear it, so as not to be impeached by the officials, saying that the Marquis
Bullying other people's orphans and widowed mothers." Qian's voice was somewhat comforting, fearing that Yu Ruiwen would be aroused and go on a rampage.
Speaking of Yu Boyang, Yu Ruiwen frowned. He truly admired this clan brother.
"Father, Mrs. Hou and the county prince have all passed away. The only thing left now is the son's bloodline. The so-called orphans and widowers, the others are from the second wife, not the bloodline of Marquis Zhengyuan." Yu Xijiao sneered in her heart.
, Mr. Qian was talking about "orphans and widowed mothers" at this time. These people in the second wife's house were so arrogant. How could they tell that they were orphans and widowed mothers?
Her words reminded Yu Ruiwen: "It is true, Yu Jinyang is still alive!"
"Father." Yu Xijiao started to speak but stopped.
"Jiao'er, just say whatever you want. My father has the final say in everything." Yu Ruiwen said.
"Father, I heard that Prince Zhengyuan is weak, will this title be snatched away by the second wife of Marquis Zhengyuan's mansion?" Yu Xijiao bit her lip, looking at Yu Ruiwen with a look of uneasiness in her eyes, "Ning
Madam...if she becomes Madam Zhengyuanhou...will she hate her father?"
After saying these words, Qian's face changed drastically: "Master Hou..."
"How is it possible? This title was obtained by Marquis Zhengyuan himself. What does it have to do with Yu Zhongyang? Let them still live in the Marquis Zhengyuan Mansion because of the young son of Marquis Zhengyuan. Otherwise, how could they live there?
Expedition to the Marquis Mansion." Yu Ruiwen waved his sleeves and said disapprovingly.
"Besides, what if you have a grudge against me? He's just a petty official with nothing, and it was the Emperor who placed him in such a position for the sake of the Marquis of Zhengyuan Mansion."
"My father protected Jiao'er just now and didn't give...them face. Jiao'er feels that what happened today...may not go well." Yu Xi said softly.
After all the things that happened before, and then the mother-in-law hanging herself, Yu Ruiwen was silent for a moment, and then his face suddenly turned cold.
"Third Miss, don't say such things to children. If you say it, it will make people feel that our family is being too forced." Mrs. Qian saw that it was not good and said hurriedly, "Master Hou, what happened before is not the same.
It wasn't my cousin who did it, it was also a misunderstanding on her part. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, how can she remember what happened just now?"
"If you don't hold grudges, how can you do what you did just now?" Yu Xijiao reminded, "Father, the hairpin just now has words engraved on it, and it looks even more complicated."
It is even more unbelievable that Concubine Ning's hairpin actually appeared in the hands of a woman.
There must be someone behind this mother-in-law, but why does this person have Concubine Ning’s hairpin in his hand?
"Master Marquis, that hairpin may not belong to Concubine Ning, let alone my cousin." Qian said eagerly.
"Isn't that right? This matter has already been over. I'm afraid that my father will be resented." Yu Xijiao sighed and looked at Yu Ruiwen with concern, "Does father want to explain this matter to grandma and let grandma think of something?
?”
"This kind of thing has not been investigated clearly yet, why should we look for the eldest princess?" Qian hurriedly refused. As long as An and eldest princess knew about it, they would definitely not get her good fruit. How dare she let An and eldest princess know about it?
Know.
"Madam, I'm afraid that my father...will the same thing happen to me?" Yu Xijiao's eyelashes trembled a few times, and her raised face became more and more frightened. She looked at Qian and then at Yu Ruiwen,
He was worried about Yu Ruiwen's safety both inside and outside of his words.
"What can happen to your father who has been doing well for so many years? Third girl, please stop being alarmist." When Mrs. Qian heard what Yu Xijiao said, she was irritating Yu Ruiwen every word. She was anxious, for fear that Yu Ruiwen would really suffer from Yu.
Xi Jiao provoked, and said in a somewhat unclear tone, "Before you came, both the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion and the Xuan Ping Hou Mansion were doing well."
Yu Yuxi raised her eyes and looked at Mr. Qian, frowning, what she said was really inappropriate.
"So... is it all because I returned home?" Yu Xi's long eyelashes dropped weakly to hide the coldness in her eyes, "Father, if this is the case, my daughter will return to Jiangnan and never set foot in the capital again, lest she
In the end, he lost his life with a stigma attached to him, and his father's reputation was also tarnished."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You are my daughter, so you must come back. As for what happens to you after you come back, it must have something to do with the second room of the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion. Jiao'er can rest assured, your father knows what to do!" After hearing what her daughter said,
Yu Ruiwen was heartbroken. He glared at Mr. Qian fiercely, his tone was as serious as the night before a storm, he flicked his sleeves and walked out angrily.
He won't give up on what happened today no matter what.
Forget it the first time, there was actually a second time, and thirdly, now that even Concubine Ning was involved, how could he let Ning gain power?
"Master Hou, Master Hou!" Qian saw something bad and hurriedly chased after him.
Yu Yuxi looked at Yu Xijiao coldly, turned around and walked out. She couldn't let her father go out like this.
The corners of Yu Xijiao's lips curled up slightly, and she leaned back. She reminded her father again and again. The purpose was to make him understand that since he wanted to deal with Yu Lanyan, it was contrary to Ning's interests.
His nature will inevitably bear him a grudge. Ning is nothing now, but he dares to plot against himself in order to exonerate Yu Lanyan.
If she gets the support of Concubine Ning, she may not take action against Yu Ruiwen in the future. The best way is to deny Ning the chance to rise up.
In the past few days, she has also seen this father in her eyes. Although he is not a particularly good father, he still cares about her daughter, and at least there is some affection between father and daughter. The so-called ineffectiveness and inability to be used may not necessarily be true for Yu Ruiwen.
There are no advantages, and one thing is that Yu Xijiao has to say that this father really opened her eyes.
The so-called ineffectiveness and confusion are actually very useful sometimes. Just like when we faced the Ning family just now, if he were a decent Marquis, he would definitely disdain to argue with the Ning family, but Yu Ruiwen can argue.
He would even suppress Ning without caring in front of a crowd of people.
This father seems to have some merits...
Now that I am aroused, I want to advance the treatment of Yu Lanyan and catch Ningshi off guard!
When the clan was eliminated, it was the second wife who was forced to die, and it was also Chu Zihan!
Erfang is wholeheartedly seeking the position of Zhengyuan Marquis, but she wants to see how they can succeed after failing again and again!
As for Chu Zihan, the Yu family cannot tolerate Yu Lanyan, so why should he, an outsider, protect the unfaithful Yu Lanyan?
The upper part of the sacrificial hall is plain white, and there are two coffins in the middle, one is that of An family, and the other is that of Lord Lanxuan County.
Someone was worshiping, and Yu Lanxue kowtowed as a relative on the mat in front of the hall and returned the gift.
She had an excellent reputation. She would observe mourning for Yu Boyang for three years, but now she is returning the favor here as a junior, so it won't feel out of place.
With a pale complexion and a sad expression, Yu Lanxue was very sad, her eyes were slightly red from the wipes. She sobbed from time to time, her tears fell slowly, she picked up the yellow paper on one side and threw it into the brazier.
Yu Ruiwen angrily led several clan elders into the mourning hall. Yu Lanxue was stunned, subconsciously feeling bad, and hurriedly called a maid to ask her to go inside and invite Mrs. Yu.
Yu Ruiwen saluted the two coffins in the middle. The elders behind him also bowed their heads, and the guests who were worshiping followed suit.
After the ceremony was over, Yu Ruiwen stood up straight in the lobby, coughed, and said to an elder, "Please give me a genealogy."
The so-called request for a genealogy has actually been brought back. This genealogy was previously kept in the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, but now that Yu Ruiwen is the clan leader, the genealogy is now kept in the Xuanping Hou Mansion.
A clan elder came in from outside, holding a family tree in his hand.
Yu Lanxue's expression changed drastically, her lips trembled twice, then she squeezed the handkerchief tightly and slowly lowered her head, her face hidden behind the white silk scarf in the mourning hall.
"Yu Lanyan, the daughter of the second wife of the Marquis of Zhengyuan Mansion, has not upheld the virtues of women and has violated the teachings of the Yu family... From now on, she will be exterminated from the clan." Yu Ruiwen took the genealogy and said with a serious face.
Several clan elders looked at each other and nodded together: "The women of the Yu clan have always been chaste. There has never been such a shameless woman who lost her virginity. From then on, this girl has no relationship with the Yu clan."
This means consent.
"I don't agree!" Mrs. Ning had already gotten the news at this time and shouted loudly in the hall. The person who came with her was Yu Zhongyang from the second room. The couple hurried over together.
"The girl who lost her virginity is not the daughter of my Yu family. If she is still in the clan, she will be buried in the pond." A clan elder took two steps forward and stopped in front of Mrs. Ning's family.
Either sink the pond or eliminate the clan. Two options are given.
Ning's face turned livid with anger: "Yan'er has not lost her virginity, Yan'er is just... just unwell and has not done anything immoral. You can't treat her like this."
"Didn't you do anything to lose your virginity?" Yu Ruiwen sneered.
"Yes, Yan'er is a good child. That day, the Lord of Lanxuan County asked her to marry him, so she married him without saying a word in order to marry Xin Kangbo's family. However, Yan'er's health
It was not her fault that she felt unwell and the sedan chair fell down. Everything she did was for Lord Lanxuan and the Yu family."
Ningshi explained bravely, gritting her teeth and saying that Yu Lanyan had not lost her virginity.
Ning now only regrets that she didn't capture Yu Xijiao, that she didn't let Yu Xijiao suffer a dumb loss, that she couldn't blackmail Yu Ruiwen about Yu Xijiao's affairs, and that she also asked Yu Ruiwen to announce in advance the Yu family's treatment of Yu Lanyan, and beat her
She was caught off guard.
Now we can only hold on, as long as Concubine Ning moves quickly enough, this matter is not impossible to reverse.
"Are the words of the imperial doctor false? Or do you mean that everyone is blind? Should we ask another imperial doctor to check her pulse and see what is going on with her body?" Yu Ruiwen asked with a sneer, "Such a loss.
She is a daughter of the Yu family who has lost her virginity. Is it possible that I, a clan leader, cannot deal with such a dishonest daughter?"
"Marquis Xuanping, please wait a moment, Yan'er is really unjust." Yu Zhongyang stepped forward, bowed deeply to Yu Ruiwen, and said sincerely. After speaking, he took something out of his sleeve and handed it over respectfully, "
