Chapter 246: Get worse
Xie Yuanjiu has never heard Mrs. Xie mention these things.
She always thought that her father was in love with someone else, but due to family pressure, she had no choice but to marry her mother.
She never expected that the way her mother married into the Xie family was so miserable.
No wonder she has not been close to her father since she was a child.
I always feel that Mr. Xie treats her out of politeness and fatherly responsibility, but he does not have a good relationship like father and daughter.
She never knew what it felt like to be held by her father.
The uncle’s two brothers, Xie Mingxu and Xie Mingan, also kept their distance from her.
Even, she is not as good as Shen Ningning, the goddaughter who has just been admitted to the Xie family.
At some point, Concubine Rong came to her and gently helped Xie Yuanjiu up.
“Silly boy, I really feel sorry for you. If I really couldn’t stand it, I wouldn’t have come here to remind you.”
"Even if your mother was wrong in drugging Mr. Xie first, so what? Mr. Xie took possession of her body and ruined her innocence. He should be responsible, right?"
"Besides, you are innocent. Since he has become your father, he should treat you well."
After listening to her words, Xie Yuanjiu seemed to suddenly get some clues from the confused and messy thoughts.
"Yes, that's right..." She nodded: "This matter has nothing to do with me. My mother gave birth to me, why should my father not care about me?"
Concubine Rong smiled slightly: "Your uncle came to take you out of the palace today. He must have scolded you."
"But you don't need to be afraid, because you are the legitimate daughter of the Xie family."
"When you see Prime Minister Xie, you should ask him to help you intercede with the emperor. With the emperor's forgiveness, your life will not be too sad in the future."
“Yuanjiu,” Concubine Rong’s hand wearing the gem ring was a little cold, and she gently smoothed her messy hair: “You must not give in to them, do you understand?”
“Otherwise, they will get even more serious and think that you owe them Xie’s family.”
Xie Yuanjiu nodded blankly. The black fog in his eyes dissipated little by little and became vicious.
"Yes, the Xie family owes me. Since they allowed me to be born, they should not ignore my feelings."
Thinking about it now, why did she make a mistake in Shuixiehuawu?
It’s not because I really want to be a female official and want to show myself in front of my uncle and father.
She wanted to tell the Xie family that she was no worse than Shen Ningning!
If not, would she have made a mistake? In the final analysis, it was the Xie family that caused her trouble.
Xie Yuanjiu regained his composure. When he left the courtyard of the storm room, he saw a tall and deep figure standing not far away after walking a few steps.
Xie Suzhi wears a flying crane official robe with a dark blue background, making the red-crowned crane with its wings spread lifelike.
However, beneath his calm expression was a cold and ruthless heart.
Xie Yuanjiu was used to it. She walked forward without any guilt or guilt: "Uncle, are you here to take me home?"
Xie Suzhi didn't answer, turned around and walked away, gesturing for her to follow.
Xie Yuanjiu followed him silently.
At this time, Xie Suzhi's cold words floated from the front: "I have made arrangements for you. You will set off tomorrow and return to your ancestral home in Changzhou to stay until Jiji and then come back."
Xie Yuanjiu's steps suddenly froze.
Her face was pale and her eyes were staring at Xie Suzhi's back.
Concubine Rong was right, and the uncle really regarded her as a shame and wanted to throw her away quickly.
Xie Yuanjiu's voice was cold: "Why do you want me to leave? Uncle, have you never thought about going to the emperor again to plead for me?"
Xie Suzhi stopped and looked back, his eyes dark and deep.
"Please? You broke into the forbidden palace without permission and slandered Ning Ning. You misappropriated five thousand taels of silver from the palace to bribe you. How can you not be guilty of this?"
"Xuanjiu, you are not even ten years old, why are you so cruel and have so many methods?"
Hearing the word Ning Ning, Xie Yuanjiu smiled, very mockingly.
“In the final analysis, uncle still took out his anger on me because of Shen Ningning.”
She collapsed a little and screamed hysterically: "Even if my background is not clean and innocent, at least I am grateful to my family. And what about Shen Ningning?"
"She is just a bastard, someone else's child. Why should I protect her? Why shouldn't I believe that I was led there by her?"
As soon as Xie Yuanjiu finished speaking, he received a heavy slap on the face. There was a "snap" sound, and Xie Suzhi actually hit her.
Xie Yuanjiu covered her burning cheeks, her eyes widened, and she looked stunned.
Xie Suzhi's eyes were extremely gloomy: "I won't tell you, but don't think that I don't know."
“The anonymous letter that reported Ningning Warehouse was written by you.”
Xie Yuanjiu was surprised.
How could the uncle know?
Xie Suzhi's tone became even colder: "You didn't tell me what you did in Shuixiehuawu, but I heard about it."
Aunt Fangmin, an acquaintance he asked Shen Ningning to find before, was transferred to Shuixiehuawu to be the eldest aunt.
Every day, my eldest aunt would write to Xie Suzhi to explain the behavior of the two children of the Xie family so as not to worry him.
Similarly, she also wrote down the ruthlessness that Xie Yuanjiu showed in front of her in detail in her letter.
“You don’t think you were exposed, do you? You caused Miss Qi’s daughter to fall into the water, and you just sat there and ignored her. Do you really think no one saw it?”
Xie Yuanjiu was completely dumbfounded.
She did this without anyone noticing. Who would know? !
But she never could have guessed that that day she stood at the corner and stared at Qi Xiuwei struggling in the water, leaving footprints on the spot.
Discovered by my eldest aunt.
The eldest aunt took the rubbings and compared them with everyone's shoe prints.
Xie Suzhi's eyes were full of disappointment: "You have done so many wrong things. If I don't send you away, will you be allowed to continue to make trouble in the capital?"
Xie Zhanjiu came back to her senses with tears in her eyes: "But I did this just to make you recognize me."
“It’s you who have harmed me, it’s the Xie family who’s sorry for me!”
Even now, she still says that.
Xie Suzhi was greatly disappointed.
This child cannot be saved.
He closed his eyes and said harshly: "Come here, tie the fourth lady into the carriage, take her back to the house and lock her in the side room of the courtyard. No one is allowed to visit!"
“Tomorrow morning, I will send you to Changzhou immediately!”
As he finished speaking, the guards of the prime minister who had been nearby appeared one after another.
Xie Yuanjiu struggled: "Uncle! Uncle, you are so cruel, no wonder you lost your daughter!"
“This is your retribution, this is the retribution of the Xie family!”
What she said was so unpleasant that the guard forcibly blocked her mouth and threw Xie Yuanjiu into the carriage that was prepared not far away.
Xie Suzhi closed his eyes and felt a dull pain in his heart.
The smell of blood surged in the mouth.
He was holding on to the palace wall on the side, breathing slowly, his face was cold and white, and his eyebrows were furrowed.
After a while, the guard came back to him and quickly supported him: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister!"
“It’s okay, there’s no need to panic. Is Ning Ning back?”
“The eldest son has just taken the princess to the carriage outside the palace to wait for you.”
Xie Suzhi took out the handkerchief in his arms and wiped the blood from the corners of his lips.
He slowly straightened up and breathed a long sigh of relief: "Is there anything strange about me?"
The guard looked at it twice and shook his head: "My lord, I don't have it."
“That’s good, don’t scare Ning Ning, let’s go.”
However.
Xie Suzhi just got on the carriage and shouted with a smile: "Ning Ning, you've been waiting for a long time. I'm sorry, my godfather is late."
The chubby little guy immediately jumped into his arms.
Before she could say anything coquettishly, Shen Ningning raised her head: "Eh? Godfather, you look so pale!"
