Chapter 48 Diverging Opinions
The Qi family also knew about the emperor's summons.

Just because she knew it, she made some guesses.Isn't the Marquis going to ask him to be crowned prince?

Otherwise, why did the emperor suddenly summon him?

The couple had discussed before that because of Xia Zhenyuan's unsatisfactory performance, they were going to choose one of Yuxuan and Jingxuan to be crowned the crown prince.

But since Xia Chixiao came back, the couple had different opinions.

What Liyanghou means is that with Xia Chixiao's ability, if he becomes the heir apparent and inherits the title in the future, he can bring the Liyanghou Mansion to a higher level and maintain its glory for another few decades.

What's more, with the help of Concubine Qing in the palace, if he makes great contributions, maybe his title in the Marquis Mansion can be promoted.

What Qi meant was that Xia Chixiao was not raised by her, and there were still some doubts about her true identity.But the other two sons are both flesh and blood.Besides, if Xia Chixiao wants a title or honor, he can earn it by himself. He is already in the second rank, and a title is just the icing on the cake for him.

But Yuxuan Jingxuan has to do it step by step, and the title is very important!

As soon as he said these words, Marquis Liyang scolded him severely: "Chixiao is our eldest son. There is no doubt about it. Don't say such ignorant words again!"

The Qi family was actually reprimanded by Marquis Liyang because of Xia Chixiao, and she was even more dissatisfied with Xia Chixiao.

Xia Chixiao answered in a decent manner: "I will face the Holy Spirit tomorrow. Father told me some things to pay attention to!"

Qi said: "Why did the Emperor summon you if he is so good?"

"Son doesn't know!"

Qi said: "I really don't know?"

Xia Chixiao: "..."

He said: "Mother, do you think I can divine the Sacred Heart?"

Mrs. Qi didn't like the way he spoke like this, and her expression turned cold. After a moment, she said, "Since you have to meet the Holy Spirit tomorrow, I will take you to visit your grandfather's family the day after tomorrow!"

Xia Chixiao was a little puzzled. He had already met Uncle Qi once when he returned to Beijing. Uncle Qi was very cold to him. If he wanted to meet him again this time, would he let him see the cold faces of Uncle Wuyi's family again?

But the word filial piety was at the forefront, so he responded: "Yes!"

Qi's expression softened a bit.

She asked: "Where is that woman who came from the country?"

Xia Chixiao's brows furrowed slightly as he heard the words coming from the countryside, and he said, "We're about to enter Beijing!"

Qi said: "Yeah!"

After saying that, she left with her mothers-in-law.

Xia Chixiao looked at her back, his eyebrows tightening, but she only asked one question and said nothing?This is so abnormal.

It's so abnormal, there's only one possibility.

Naturally, it would not be her who changed her mind and was willing to accept his wife into the Marquis Mansion.

That means she is very sure that she can't come to the capital, let alone enter the Marquis' mansion!
Under what circumstances can a person be on the road but unable to reach the capital?
Xia Chixiao's face was solemn, and he quickly returned to Qingpu Courtyard. When he reached the courtyard, he said: "Here comes someone!"

It wasn't Huo Ci who came, but a man in black.

Xia Chixiao said: "Leave the city immediately to meet Luo Xiao and the others. Be careful, bring a few more people with you!"

"Yes!" The man in black responded and left, his figure blending into the night, as if he had never appeared.

Looking at the darkening night outside, Xia Chixiao's handsome face tightened.

In this capital, there are people he has close blood relatives with, but he lives here, but he doesn't feel the slightest bit of family affection.Many calculations are clearly laid out on the table.

Are there only interests and calculations between relatives, and nothing else?
If a family wants to be strong, it will indeed consider all aspects. Just like in the army, if it wants to win a battle, it is not just as simple as fighting on the battlefield.He can understand this big-picture view.

But he can give up anything for profit, and use anything for profit, but he disagrees!
Now that he is in the middle of the game, he can only take one step at a time.

Chu Nanning went back to the room, changed her clothes, and went out.

On the road, he met the housekeeper Jiang Song. Jiang Song was not surprised that she was wearing ordinary clothes. The young lady occasionally wore such clothes. He didn't need to ask too much about the master's family affairs. He just had to do his duty.

He saluted and said: "Miss, you are going out, do you need to prepare a carriage for you?"

Chu Nanning said: "No need!"

There was only one carriage in the house, a gift from Taifu Ye, which was quite ostentatious.

She has changed into this outfit, so naturally she doesn't want people to know her true identity.

There was a horse-drawn carriage just a street away from the house, so Chu Nanning went to hire an ordinary carriage.

She wanted to go to Xicheng District, which was far away. If she didn't hire a carriage to go there, she wouldn't be able to come back before the curfew.

The carriage was moving very quickly, but it took almost half an hour to reach West City.

Chu Nanning got off the carriage and sent the driver away.

She stood on the street, which was already somewhat empty due to the fall of night, and squinted her eyes.She had understood the situation in the four cities before, and after conquering the Nancheng Tiger, she knew even more.

Xicheng Lion, the leader of the local ruffians in Xicheng, is known as One-Eyed. Compared with Nancheng Tiger, he is more vicious and vicious. His subordinates are more cruel and have no lower limit than the idlers in Nancheng.

After conquering Nancheng District, Chu Nanning was not prepared to deal with other districts so quickly. After all, the idlers in Nancheng had not yet been completely sorted out.

Those rules have been set, and the consequences have to be seen.

In addition, those who have committed the crime of killing innocent people and bullying women will be liquidated in the future.

Nancheng has not really become a piece of iron. You can bite off more than you can chew. If you eat one bite, you will become fat and prone to indigestion.

But now that these people are attacking Mrs. Pei's shop, she can only advance her plan.

His one eye and skill are on par with Nancheng Tiger.

It should be said that the skills of the leaders of the idlers in the four cities are not much different, and there is not much difference in the power of the four cities.If the difference was too great, the other three parties would have been annexed long ago.

She stood there and deduced it in her mind. The method to deal with Xicheng Lion cannot be the same as the method to deal with Nancheng Tiger.

Nancheng Tiger is open-minded and rough, and he is relatively straightforward in doing things. Just use force to convince him.

But Xicheng Duyan has a completely different temperament.

After a while, he stepped towards the northwest.

The gangsters and idlers in West City live in a better place than those in Nancheng. They have a house with a pretty good environment. It is much cleaner and more elegant than that big courtyard, but it is limited!
At this time, there was a lot of noise in the yard, with wine flowing in the ears, glasses clinking, and women's teasing laughter.

Today they got a sum of money, so One Eye ordered a banquet and called some girls from the brothel. The whole yard was filled with smoke and smoke.

Just when they were happy, a huge "bang" sound suddenly came, and the closed door was kicked open.The sound made everyone turn around and even sober up a bit.

The people gathered here today are not just ordinary minions, at least they are also leaders.

It was the first time that someone kicked in my door.

 Thank you to Yuluojiang North and South Piaoxue for the reward of 500 starting coins!Thanks for the support!
