Seeing the worried faces of her family, Xia Daohua decided to try again and persuade Xia Jinhua. Whether she would listen or not was none of her business:
"Sister Jinhua, do you know what you are saying? Calm down and think about it carefully!"
Xia Jinhua seemed to have made up her mind. She looked deeply at Xia Daohua, then at the Xia family members gathered around, all with different expressions but unable to hide their worry. She let out a long breath and told the truth:
"Having missed out on Prince Wang, I'm afraid I'll never have this opportunity again! Don't think being a concubine is necessarily a bad thing. If it weren't for Daohua's sake, I wouldn't be able to enter a mansion as grand as the Wang family with my background!"
Wang Silang stood outside the door, listening quietly to the conversation between the sisters in the room.
At this moment, he was extremely grateful for his romantic skills, and especially admired his skill in playing chess - he could be patient with Xia Jinhua, a fleeting relationship, and he took the trouble to make her happy... Isn't this coming in handy now?
Originally, he only coveted the bandits in Xia Jinhua's hands. If he could win over Xia Daohua, it would be like God giving him a pillow when he was sleepy!
But the sisterhood between Xia Daohua and Xia Jinhua is obviously watered down.
Xia Daohua only gave Xia Jinhua one word of advice, and then stopped, saying meaningfully:
"How could I possibly have any respect in a mansion as big as the Wang family? My sister was able to enter the Wang family because of your relationship with Young Master Wang and your own ability. It has nothing to do with me. If I really had respect in front of them, they wouldn't be so ignorant of etiquette when they came to invite our family."
Xia Jinhua sighed, "Daohua, I don't know why you've become like this, but we're family after all. I even held you in my arms when you were little! Can't you please be a little more polite to Young Master Wang for your sister's sake?"
"I've always been very polite to the Wang family, but they've been very rude to me!"
Wang Silang, who was eavesdropping outside, and the Xia family in the house were a little confused, but at least they understood one thing: Xia Daohua really disliked the Wang family!
Just at this moment, a heavy and distant bell suddenly rang, and it rang for eighty-one times before stopping.
Everyone was silent.
Compared with the sound of the bell, Xia Jinhua's marriage and Xia Daohua's business became insignificant trifles.
When this bell rings, it must mean that something big has happened - either the emperor has died or the enemy is besieging the city.
Xia Daohua suddenly felt uneasy. Could it be that Gu Mingzhen couldn't resist the temptation and killed the two unruly twins? After killing those two idiots, would it be her turn? Old Wei was still in his hands. Would he also know too much and lose his life?
All kinds of thoughts came to her mind, but within a moment, Xia Daohua calmed down - she didn't particularly care whether the troublemaker lived or died.
The throne belongs to the Gu family. They can fight for it however they want, just don't affect the common people.
As for killing her, Gu Mingzhen didn't have the ability to do it. She was very difficult to kill! Unless she was poisoned, she could just hide in space and no one would be able to find her. As for poisoning, the worst that could happen was that she wouldn't eat and drink at Gu Mingzhen's place anymore.
Old Wei is in Gu Mingzhen's hands. If he really doesn't want to let Old Wei go, it would be too late for me to rush over now. I'd better wait and see!
Soon, the troops sent by Wang Silang and the bandits sent by Xia Jinhua all received news and came back with solemn faces to report - every house outside was decorated in white and in mourning - the emperor had indeed passed away.
Xia Daohua thought to herself, Gu Mingzhen is really not slow at all!
