Chapter 5 Delicate Mother and Daughter
He and his wife went to visit Xie Zhaozhao last night.

When Xie Zhaozhao talked about Chu Nanxuan, his face was full of happiness, as well as his longing and yearning for married life.

He also joked that "a female college student cannot stay in college" and was glared at by his wife several times.

In less than twelve hours, the attitude has completely changed?

"He was involved in the issue of inferior ordnance!" Xie Zhaozhao looked at his father, "Dad has been in the army for half his life, and what he hates most is the young people who mess with the ordnance, horses, and food."

"I have been taught by my father since I was a child, so naturally I hate people like this!"

Xie Zhaozhao added: "And on the day I got married, some carriages came out of our Xie family. I don't know if our family will be implicated."

When she said this, Xie Wei's face became very ugly. He put his hand on his forehead and lowered his eyes to think carefully, and said nothing again.

How could Chu Nanxuan be related to inferior ordnance?

I'm afraid it's not being plotted by others.

I don’t know who is behind it...

Looking at his expression, Xie Zhaozhao guessed that he still trusted Chu Nanxuan, and sighed inwardly.

Chu Nanxuan is really good at pretending.

He was impeccable in his dealings with others, and there was no one in the Xie family who didn't like him except the eldest sister.

Xie Zhaozhao also knew that what he just said had only temporarily attracted his father's attention. Maybe he would come back to his senses soon and still find her attitude towards Chu Nanxuan strange.

After all, she and Chu Nanxuan have been deeply in love over the years, and they are a golden boy and a beautiful couple in the eyes of outsiders.

But now she was asked to pretend to be affectionate, to pretend to be worried about Chu Nanxuan and burst into tears, but she couldn't do it.

Jingyi in the car.

The sound of wheels churning and horses hooves clattering sounded rhythmically.

Xie Zhaozhao raised his eyes, lifted the car curtain and looked at the street outside.

Today, first the Xuanjia Army blocked the road, and then the Forbidden Army searched.

The people were panic-stricken, there were not many people on the streets, and they were all in a hurry.

There is no bustling traffic in the previous life, but the buildings on this street make people feel a little familiar.

Not far away, the gate tower of Duke Liang's Mansion stood majestically, and one could already see the guards standing guard with guns in front of the door, as well as many women in beautiful clothes.

"Long time no see..." Xie Zhaozhao murmured softly.

my loved ones.

And - enemies!
*
Xie Zhaozhao is the youngest daughter of the Duke of Liang. Today she is getting married. The middle door of her house is opened, dressed in red and colorful, and she is full of joy.

But now something happened to the wedding, and all the guests dispersed.

At this moment, standing in front of the door and looking forward to it were the women of the Xie family.

Seeing the carriage parked in front of the door, the graceful and noble woman standing in the middle threw away the support of the nuns, rushed to the carriage and called anxiously: "Zhaozhao——"

"Mom." Xie Zhaozhao jumped off the carriage and threw himself into the woman's arms, "I'm fine."

"Why is everything okay?" Mrs. Yu, Duke of Liang, cried: "Such a big thing happened..."

"Okay, okay!" Xie Wei also got off the carriage at this time, "What does it look like to stand at the door and cry?"

Yu glared at her and said, "I love to shed tears. Do you have any objections?"

"Uh..." Xie Wei quickly smiled and said, "I don't dare to have any objections as a husband. It's not because the door is windy. I'm afraid that my wife and Lao Qi will catch cold."

"Lao Qi, what Lao Qi!" Yu scolded: "She is a girl, she has a name! She is not a man!"

Xie Wei said: "What Madam taught me was, um, because of my husband's slip of the tongue..."

Standing next to Mr. Yu was a beautiful woman in her 30s and a beautiful woman in her late teens.

The facial features of the two people are five or six similar, and even their temperaments are surprisingly consistent.They are all delicate, tender and pitiful.

The beautiful woman, Mrs. Dou, the second wife, covered her face and sobbed: "It was originally a good wedding... but now it has turned into this. Your Highness is robbing people in the street without caring about Zhao Zhao's reputation."

"And Nan Xuan...he is a child that we all watched grow up. He could have committed any crime and be suddenly thrown into prison without any explanation."

"Yes."

The gentle beauty Xie Xingchen on the side frowned, and her eyes were filled with tears when she looked at Xie Zhaozhao.

She was even more sad and grieved than Xie Zhaozhao, who was the master of the matter. "Sister Zhaozhao, don't care what the people are talking about. This matter is not your fault. It is all His Highness's willful behavior..."

It's not a secret that Yun Qi likes Xie Zhaozhao.

Five years ago, he had troubled Chu Nanxuan many times because of Xie Zhaozhao, and every time he made a fuss, it was quite a fuss.

The people were ignorant and had been talking about it vividly for some time five years ago.

To put it mildly, it would be said that the emperor's grandson Yingxiong was sad about the beauty.

It's not nice to just say that Xie Zhaozhao is a beauty.

On the surface, he is married to Chu Nanxuan, but secretly he is also interested in the wise and powerful emperor's eldest grandson. He is simply a fool.

Some of them are even dirty words that are unpalatable to the ears.

As soon as Xie Xingchen said this, both Xie Wei and Yu remembered what happened at the beginning, and their faces darkened.

Obviously both the couple hate Yun Qi very much.

"Second sister." Xie Zhaozhao looked at Xie Xingchen indifferently, a cold dark light flashed in his eyes, "Have you ever left the house today?"

"I..." Xie Xingchen was stunned for a moment, "No, why did the third sister ask like this?"

"Since you have never left the house -" Xie Zhaozhao's voice suddenly became cold: "Then how do you know that the people are talking about it? Do you have a pair of ears that can hear what those people are talking about in the streets?!"

"Or do you just want others to treat me as a talking point and talk about me non-stop every day?"

Xie Xingchen was stunned: "I'm just guessing, I want to comfort you..."

"You know how important the reputation of your daughter's family is, but you still want to tell people at this gate that people are talking about me." Xie Zhaozhao sneered: "To add salt to other people's wounds, is this how you comfort me?"

Xie Wei and his wife, as well as the two sons of the Xie family standing not far away, all looked at Xie Xingchen with strange expressions.

Xie Xingchen's face turned pale.

"And the second aunt."

Xie Zhaozhao turned to his second wife, Mrs. Dou, "You said that Chu Nanxuan's imprisonment was unclear. What are you implying? His imprisonment was an imperial edict issued by the emperor himself. Do you doubt the emperor's wisdom?"

"I——" Mrs. Dou's face turned as white as a ghost, "I didn't mean that!"

Xie Zhaozhao said coldly: "Second Aunt must know that trouble comes from the mouth."

"Yes, yes..." Dou said in a harsh voice, "I was too worried about Zhaozhao, so I lost my sense of control in my anxiety. I hope my elder brother and sister-in-law are not to blame."

Xie Wei's eyes turned from Xie Zhaozhao to Dou's mother and daughter, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, the gate is not the place to talk. Let's all go in."

"Let's go." Mrs. Yu took Xie Zhaozhao and walked inside, staying away from Mrs. Dou and her daughter without leaving any trace.

Standing by the door of the Duke's Mansion was a woman who was pregnant with Liujia. She glanced at Xie Zhaozhao and said calmly: "Since nothing is wrong, I will go back to the mansion."

That was Xie Zhaozhao's eldest sister Xie Jiajia. The two sisters had never had a harmonious relationship. They were often noisy and violent when they met.

My parents had a severe headache, but there was nothing they could do.

Xie Wei saw that she was really going to leave and it was hard to keep her, so he called his sixth brother Xie Changan to see her off.

Xie Zhaozhao looked at his sister's back and lowered his eyes slightly.

There is no rush, let's solve the trouble in the house first, and then repair the relationship with my sister.
