Chapter 853: Cutting off the enemy's vital points without hurting oneself

Mr. Xue said this definitely not to put pressure on Sang Zhixia, nor did he want to instill in Sang Zhixia the idea that parents are innocent as an elder.

He simply wanted to ask Sang Zhixia's opinion on how to deal with the Sang family so that she would feel better.

As the saying goes, if you have a grudge, you should take revenge. If you have a vengeance, you should take revenge. Sang Zhixia has to resolve the knot in her heart by herself.

They are very happy to help with this matter.

Sang Zhixia's expression did not fluctuate much, but Sang Yanyou's expression changed first.

Noticing his expression, Sang Zhixia couldn't help but curl her lips: "Why, do you have something to say?"

"elder sister……"

Sang Yanyou looked frustrated and pent-up. He bit his lower lip repeatedly and whispered, "I've been to the mansion over there a few times. Dad was lying on the bed, barely speaking clearly. I couldn't hear what he was saying. But I could clearly hear the tone of the other people's voices, and none of what they said was pleasant to the ear."

What is the greatest filial piety?

What grace of giving birth to a child is greater than that of heaven?

It's all just bullshit.

What are that high-and-mighty stepmother and a group of so-called brothers and sisters who are nothing but bad-intentioned ones?

Why are they always so arrogant?

Xu Mingyang had been there with Sang Yanyou before. He tried to hold it back but couldn't. He touched his nose and muttered, "Sister-in-law, the people over there really are rude."

"That Madam Sang, she doesn't even realize what time it is, and she's still using her title as the legitimate mother to question why we don't kneel. Why should we kneel to her?"

Sang Zhixia's eyes flickered slightly.

Xu Mingyang said angrily, "Moreover, that person also said that the young prince is a filial son and would definitely not tolerate an unkind and unjust person who abandoned his mother's family to serve in the court. The court censors would definitely not turn a blind eye."

In other words, according to popular logic, since the Sang family has a young lady from the Xu family, it is impossible for them to fall.

Even though the situation was not as strong as before, Xu Yu had to consider his official reputation and fame, and he would not let anyone do as they pleased.

Owning the name of the mother's family, people feel fearless.

Sang Zhixia didn't know about this before, and when she saw the depressed look on the two little ones' faces, she couldn't help but laugh softly.

"Is it really that annoying?"

Sang Yanyou gritted his teeth and said, "Sister, I just can't understand why?"

"Of course there's nothing to rely on."

"But if they think your brother-in-law cares about his official reputation and I care about my external reputation, then they are really mistaken."

Sang Zhixia flicked her fingertips and said with a smile, "Why should I care about that?"

Mr. Xue listened quietly without interrupting, and only then said softly, "So, you have an idea?"

Sang Zhixia: "It's not a good idea, but it's okay to get rid of these people."

"Yanyou and I have long been removed from the family tree and are no longer considered members of that family. However, the young prince is so kind and generous that he probably can't bear to add to the killing. In that case..."

"Why not confiscate all of their property, except for the house they currently live in, and punish them severely."

Mr. Xue originally wanted to ask if confiscating only the family property was too lenient, but then he changed his mind and a playful expression appeared on his face.

The Sang family is large and powerful, with many descendants, and has never split up.

There are hundreds of people living in the Sang family mansion alone. All of these people are used to a life of luxury. How could they live a life of poverty?

Now these people are like frightened birds, all their eyes glued to Sang Zhixia, hoping to find a way out from now on. To do this, they rely on their direct lineage and are full of flattery and flattery.

But what if this hope is dashed?

With so many people guarding only a looted house, this once prosperous family would completely fall apart from the inside without anyone taking action.

Internal strife can kill many greedy people.

Leaving the house and allowing these people to continue living there was nothing more than saving Xu Yu's face and Sang Zhixia's influence in the eyes of outsiders.

You have the face to show to the outside world, and the wealth to show to the inside world.

Cut off its seven inches without hurting yourself.

That's good.

Mr. Xue understood and said, "I just told the young prince a few days ago that for those who have committed mistakes but their lives are not seriously endangered, they can actually save their lives by paying a fine. I think it can also be applied to these people."

All the property was confiscated, and a fine that could not be repaid was imposed, which was forcing people to sell their houses.

In such a huge city like Kyoto, none of these people can stay.

Sang Zhixia smiled gratefully and said, "Sir, you are very wise. Thank you for your concern."

"No problem."

Mr. Xue waved his hand and smiled: "It's just a small favor."

"Don't worry, Mr. Sang. If there are any ignorant people, they will be stopped naturally. They won't have the chance to get in the way elsewhere."

"Thank you very much."

Watching Mr. Xue walk away, Sang Yanyou seemed to understand and wanted to ask something, but Chen Yun quickly covered his mouth.

Chen Yun whispered in his ear, "Pulling meat with a blunt knife is really painful. If you don't understand, don't say anything. I'll tell you when we get back."

As for the job of confiscating the family property...

Chen Yun bumped Xu Mingyang's arm and said, "Aren't you a skilled worker?"

"If Yanyou is not able to go, we can go and keep an eye on him."

Even if it's just a copper coin, these people won't have the chance to hide it!

The brief conversation in front of the door did not disturb the silence in the hall.

The people who came in walked forward one by one in order of seniority, knelt down earnestly, kowtowed, and burned incense.

Even the small ones like Nuonuo and Yuanbao are made to look like real ones.

Jiang Yubai signaled Xu Yu to quickly help Sang Zhixia up, then he sat cross-legged on the mat and waved, "Come, come, come and give uncle a hug."

Nuonuo and Yuanbao rushed over, Xu Mingyang bared his teeth and moved forward, but was kicked by Jiang Yubai.

"Get lost, I'm not worthy of being your uncle."

The person who was kicked covered his butt and walked away with a pout.

Nuonuo and Yuanbao nestled in Jiang Yubai's arms, muttering something with their hands covering their mouths. Xu Yu took out the only chair, covered it with a clean cushion, and asked Sang Zhixia to sit down.

When you open the lunch box, you'll find it's all vegetarian, but you can tell at a glance that the person who prepared it put a lot of thought into it.

Even the vegetarian dishes have been prepared with as many variations as possible. There are no fancy plating or decorations, but the aroma wafting from them is extremely soothing.

Jiang Yubai hugged the child and laughed as he ate: "Did you two come here on a mission?"

"Why are you stuffing everything into my mouth?"

Nuonuo gently wiped the corners of Jiang Yubai's mouth with a sweet-smelling handkerchief. Yuanbao held up the little rabbit bun in his hand and said seriously, "Eat well."

"Grandpa Jiang said, if you eat well, you will grow tall. If you grow really tall and big, you will become very powerful! Just like Grandpa Jiang!"

Nuonuo held up her handkerchief and nodded seriously, "Yes, yes, yes."

"Grandpa Jiang also said that those who don't eat well are not good children. Uncle should be a good boy."

The little baby in my arms is as soft and tender as a delicate piece of jade, but the words he speaks are like those of a little adult, with a soft and serious tone.

Jiang Yubai buried his red eyes in the child's shoulder and said with a sullen smile, "Xu Yu, your child is just what I want. Why don't you give him to me?"

"Call me dad from now on, I..."

"You get out of here too."

Xu Yu emphasized expressionlessly: "Get lost."

Jiang Yubai: "..."

Jiang Yubai gritted his teeth: "I will be the emperor soon, believe me or not..."

"Even if you are the king of heaven, you can't take my child away."

"What do you believe in?"

Xu Yu moved his wrist: "Do you believe you can beat me?"

Jiang Yubai bit his back teeth in frustration, and with lingering anger, he sucked on Yuanbao's chubby cheek, rubbed his soft little face and said with a grin, "Just wait for me."

"Sooner or later I'll beat you to a pulp!"
