Chapter 59 Causing Disaster
"Duan, Zheng Ye; Xian, Min Ye, Shen Ye; since the emperor gave you the title Duan Xian, you should act uprightly, act swiftly and cautiously, so as to live up to the emperor's expectations of you."
Xie Zhiwei hurriedly said, "Granddaughter remembers!"
Yuan didn't wake up for a long time. At this time, she finally realized that she was not in a dream. She said happily, "Amitabha, our Meimei has also become the county head, and we are still the second rank. This rank is really high. Mother, Should such a big happy event in the family be rewarded by the entire family? In my opinion, the monthly money of servants in the Moon Palace will be tripled."
Xiao Shi was not happy at all, what ability can Xie Zhiwei have to get the emperor to grant her a title? After all, it wasn't that Xie Zhiwei took the title of the eldest daughter of the Xie family, isn't that what the canonization decree said?
Hmph, the old man's heart is really too biased. If there is a chance, he will not seek the welfare of the whole family, but give Xie Zhiwei all the benefits.
"Sister-in-law, sister Wei is now the richest man in the family, and the head of the county, with three hundred households in Shiyi, and Huangzhuang, with a thousand taels of gold. According to me, sister Wei should take some benefits and distribute them to the big guys." Son, it’s impossible for Sister Wei to get such a big benefit, and the family should use money to reward people, right?”
Sounds so reasonable!
Xie Zhiwei raised his eyelids and looked at Xiao Shi, with a half-smile, "Is Second Aunt joking, or is she telling the truth?"
Xiao Shi was about to speak, when Xie Tiao got angry, "Don't talk about that yet."
He waved his hand and let everyone else leave, leaving only Feng Shi, Yuan Shi, Xiao Shi, Xie Jibai, and Xie Zhiwei talking, and asked, "What happened yesterday?"
Feng herself only knew that Xie Zhiwei had obeyed the emperor's order. She didn't know the specific reason for it. How can there be such a girl's family. I thought, her biological mother died early, and no one really disciplined her. If I don't say a few words, if she does something in the future, she will be a small person and hurt the Xie family's face It's a big deal. I wanted to leave her outside for an hour to calm down, but who knows, Master Lu misunderstood her."
Feng raised his eyelids to look at Xie Zhiwei, and said sternly, "Miss Wei, when did you meet Lord Lu? You are a good girl, no matter how powerful he is, he is still an eunuch!"
Xie Tiao's complexion became more and more ugly, and the anger like lightning and thunder gathered in his eyes.
Xie Jibai saw the change in the face of the old man. He is not one of those scholars who are obsessed with reading books and don't care about current affairs. Cui's family society often analyzes the court newspaper for them. he listens.
Of course Xie Jibo knows, who is Lu Yan? He also knows Dongchang's methods.
When the old lady said such things, she was undoubtedly causing trouble for the Xie family.
"Mother, sister Wei was ordered by the emperor the day before yesterday, so she had no choice but to stay in the Zhuangzi. When my son got the news, he brought his bedroll and went there. That night, my son lived in the yard next to Miss Wei's. It was close to her. The son knows exactly what's going on. Although the son is young, he is still Wei's elder. With the son as an elder watching over him, even if Wei stays in the village overnight, it can't be considered a violation of the family rules. Unless in the eyes of the mother, the son is not a person."
Xie Zhiwei looked at the fourth uncle who was talking nonsense and seriously, his eyes were shining like a star in a summer night, extremely bright.
"Fourth, what nonsense are you talking about?" The old lady didn't expect that her own son would tear her down like this at a critical moment.
Xie Jibai felt that he could figure it out with his knees. Although Sister Wei cured Lu Yan, Lu Yan owed Sister Wei his life, and Lu Yan was injured only to save him. It is natural for the emperor to reward Sister Wei, but the reward It must be Lu Yan's mind to have the title of county lord under the feudal city.
He must have felt that Sister Wei was in a difficult situation in the Xie family, which is why the emperor bestowed such great honor and favor on her.
"Miss Wei, come on Zhuangzi, what's the matter?" Xie Tiao pondered for a moment, then continued, "Say what you can say, and don't say what you can't say."
Xie Zhiwei thought, the assassination of the emperor must not be said, and she did not see it with her own eyes.
But Lu Yan was injured, this matter cannot be hidden, neither the emperor nor Lu Yan planned to hide it.
Xie Zhiwei then went to Zhuangzi to look at the crops, and planned to return home in the afternoon. At noon, he was hunting chestnuts in the chestnut forest in the mountain. He met the emperor and his party. At that time, Lu Yan was injured. Lu Yan wanted to stay in Zhuangzi to recover from her injuries. She was not good at leaving as the master, so she had to stay in Zhuangzi. Later, Lu Yan's injury was stable, and she proposed to come back. Lu Yan asked someone to send her back, but she was stopped at the door I said it again.
Besides concealing that he was treating Lu Yan’s injuries, and only saying that he contributed the Cui family’s medicine, Xie Zhiwei sought truth from facts and did not exaggerate.
Feng's hand holding Shibazi was trembling slightly, and only then did she realize what a stupid thing she had done. How did she know that Xie Zhiwei still had such a big face, Lu Yan sent someone from Dongchang to send her off.
Sure enough, Xie Zhiwei is a bastard, specially sent by the heavens to defeat her.
She would rather be missed by the emperor than Lu Yan, thinking that she treated Xie Zhiwei harshly.
Xie Tiao's face was so dark that it was about to drip water, looking at Feng's eyes was like looking at a dead person.
The Xie family’s poems and rites have passed through the three dynasties for hundreds of years. The reason why they have not been destroyed is because the wealth is deep, and they are safe with frugality;
When outsiders mention Xie’s family, they think it has been majestic for hundreds of years, but Xie Tiao will examine himself three times before going to bed every day, and educating his children is also asking them to act cautiously, follow the words of the saints, and be cautious of being a gentleman, and never do dangerous things.
Originally, Xie Zhiwei rescued Lu Yan by chance this time, so he could make a good impression in front of the emperor and Lu Yan. As for the daughter's family, although father and brother are taking care of her, if the emperor can look at her differently, in the future, whether it is discussing marriage or marrying, the husband's family will look at her highly.
However, since what happened last night, there are no secrets in the capital, and it will definitely be spread.
I'm afraid, the emperor and Lu Yan also considered this point before rewarding him with the title, just to make face for Xie Zhiwei.
One can imagine how angry the emperor and Lu Yan were!
This home is becoming less and less like a home.
