Xie Qingyao said in a muffled voice, "He didn't invite me. Let's get in the car and talk."
He Zheng agreed.
The carriage moved slowly forward, with fine snowflakes carried in the wind.
Xie Qingyao said, "The one who destroyed the Xue family was Wei Yi'an, the second son of the King of Longxi. The reason was that my eldest cousin rejected his pursuit, which made him lose face."
The powerful and wealthy were furious and executed their entire family.
"What a trivial reason! Grandfather and the others are so innocent."
"But I didn't know anything in my previous life. Even if I did, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to deal with him."
"I, I am too insignificant..."
Xie Qingyao lowered her eyes and a tear fell.
He Zheng held her cold fingertips, frowned and said, "It's not your fault."
"Many things in this life are different. Yaoyao is not insignificant. Yaoyao is smart and capable."
"Besides, Yaoyao still has me."
If she tries her best but falls short, he can help her make up for the remaining amount.
Since she is his wife in this life, I must make sure everything goes well for her.
The corners of Xie Qingyao's eyes were still tinged with red. She hugged He Zheng and was quiet for a while.
After a long while, Xie Qingyao sat up straight again and smiled, "My Lord is right. This life is different."
"If anyone dares to touch the people around me, I will send them to hell."
He Zheng wiped her wet little face with the back of his hand and said in a low voice: "Some people will die sooner or later, and the Wei family is no exception."
Xie Qingyao's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she always felt that he was going to say something big.
The next second, He Zheng just touched Xie Qingyao's head.
Xie Qingyao: "..."
Well, don’t tell me.
If you don’t want to say it, then don’t say it.
Xie Qingyao: "I'm going to write to my cousin to see if she's involved with Wei Yian right now."
If she knew him, she would be on guard. If there was any sign of harm to the Xue family, she would take the initiative to get rid of Wei Yian.
"My Lord, tell me about the King of Longxi."
He Zheng: "Wei Xiangyong was originally a warlord who supported Your Majesty's ascension to the throne. For his meritorious service, he was granted the title of King of a Different Surname."
"The King of Longxi commands two hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and is a true emperor in Longxi."
He looked at Xie Qingyao thoughtfully, and told her about another king of a different surname in the Wei family - King Dongping.
"The Prince of Dongping also has 100,000 infantry, 50,000 cavalry, and 30,000 naval forces."
"The combined forces of the two kings of different surnames are nearly 400,000."
Xie Qingyao pursed her lips tightly and couldn't help frowning.
With so many troops, it’s no wonder that His Majesty is wary, and no wonder that the Wei family is so arrogant.
Xie Qingyao touched his chin and asked, "Then I can't touch Wei Yian?"
He Zheng's tone was gentle, "Yaoyao, have you forgotten who you married?"
Xie Qingyao's eyes widened, a puzzled look on her face, and she raised her voice and said, "Hmm?"
He Zheng squeezed her soft hand and said in a low voice, "There's no reason for my people to be wronged."
"Even if they are from the Wei family, I can get rid of them. I will take care of everything."
"If the Wei family were a tiger, I would pluck out its teeth, break its claws, pick out its bones, and let it turn to ashes."
Xie Qingyao was a little speechless, and her heart was beating uncontrollably.
Shocked, surprised, and moved.
She knows.
What He Zheng said was true, and he did what he said.
No one would remain unmoved by such touching words.
Xie Qingyao blushed suddenly, blinked, and said, "My Lord, you are so nice to talk to. You are so talkative. I love to listen to you."
As she spoke, she leaned towards He Zheng.
Xie Qingyao took quick action when she said she was writing a letter to her cousin, and soon received a reply.
My cousin said she didn’t know Wei Yian, the second son of King Longxi.
After receiving the letter, Xie Qingyao felt relieved. "Fortunately, the two of them are not involved now. Whoever provokes a madman like that will be in trouble."
It is said that the Marquis of Anguo and the Duke of Rongguo have made an engagement, and He Linghui will be getting married in more than a month.
This day.
Duke Rong's Mansion.
Mrs. Liu, the wife of the eldest house, ordered the maid beside her: "Send these two books to the first house of the Marquis of Anguo's mansion."
The nanny looked down and found that they were actually "Instructions for Women" and "Ten Rules of Female Virtue".
"Madam is setting the rules for Miss He in advance."
Liu nodded and said, "The door of our Rongguo Mansion is not for casual entry. The He family girl should memorize the two books by heart and always remember that women should be humble, submissive, and loyal."
"To prevent her from acting inappropriately in the future and bringing shame to our Rongguo Mansion."
The maid replied, "Yes, I'll send it over right away."
But she was bumped into by Yin Huaiqing who was walking towards her. Yin Huaiqing was puzzled: "What is mother going to do?"
Liu said nonchalantly: "It's just a reminder to the He family girl, it's just a small matter."
Yin Huaiqing felt a headache when he saw the title of the book. He said softly, "Mother, Linghui hasn't even married yet. Isn't it a bit too much to set rules like this?"
"Besides, although Linghui is a bit lively, she is also a girl with good sense of propriety. There is no need to remind her of the rules over and over again; she understands them."
Mrs. Liu couldn't stand her son's disobedient behavior.
"Hehe, she's not the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Anguo. Asking her to do something small is not an injustice to her."
Yin Huaiqing's eyebrows jumped, "Mother, if she is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Anguo, then my son is not worthy of her."
The legitimate daughter of Marquis Anguo should be worthy of the prince.
Liu said coldly, "What do you mean unworthy? Huaiqing, mother won't allow you to be so self-deprecating. In her eyes, you are the best."
Yin Huaiqing took a deep breath and said, "Mother, I like Linghui. I beg you not to make things difficult for her."
Mrs. Liu had never seen her son disobey her like this, especially for a woman who had not yet married into her family.
What a good trick! Before they even got married, she had already made her son protect her in everything and even dared to contradict his own mother.
After all, he was her youngest son, and Liu was reluctant to blame him.
"You seem so nervous, but mother won't eat her, don't worry."
After Yin Huaiqing left, Liu raised her eyes and said in a cold tone, "Madam, why don't you send the things to the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion quickly?!"
The nanny was also stunned.
She thought the lady would let it go, but she didn't expect that she was saying one thing in public and another in private.
"yes."
Anguo Marquis Mansion.
"What do they mean by this? Asking me to recite the Women's Commandments and Virtues? What am I not doing well enough?"
He Linghui angrily threw the two books to the ground.
"Linghui hasn't even gotten married yet, and you've already set rules for her. This, this is outrageous." Mrs. Li's face darkened.
The eldest master said to He Linghui in a bad mood, "Didn't you insist on getting married? Now that you're engaged, why are you complaining?"
"Do you want to cancel the engagement?"
Cancel the engagement?
Upon hearing this, He Linghui was suddenly startled and spoke without thinking.
"No, I don't want to cancel the engagement."
How could she dare to lose her temper, for she was worried that her parents would really cancel her marriage with Yin Huaiqing.
He Linghui: "This must be Liu's idea alone. Yin Lang definitely doesn't know about it."
"If Yin Lang knew, he would definitely not let his mother embarrass me like this."
