Chapter 202 Aroused the anger of the whole nation
"Quitting the tribe is too serious. I know you're worried that I'll be wronged. Dad, I'm not a weak person. I can do a lot of things. I'm just a little lazy and don't like to pay attention to them."
"Dad knows you...but..."
"Then leave it to me, Dad. I'm not afraid of the old lady, and I can control her. Let's wait and see about the withdrawal from the clan. If things really don't work out after a while, it won't be too late for us to withdraw from the clan then, okay, Dad?"
Xiang Minghou was silent for a few moments before nodding: "It's up to you. No matter how you deal with it, Dad will stand by you."
"Okay." Ye Qianning didn't want him to leave the clan until the last step.
A lot of things have happened since she came, but even if the old lady was not good to my father, without her, this family would still be able to get by as before.
No matter how wary the old lady and the second wife are, they have to welcome Dad with a smile when he returns home.
When she came, many things that shouldn't have happened happened, and she felt a little guilty about them.
Sometimes it is better to live life in confusion than to understand it...
With the spring breeze and drizzle, a new day has arrived.
It was drizzling in Kyoto, but it did not affect people's travel at all. At this time, rumors were spreading on the streets. The most popular ones were about the attack on the Prime Minister's Mansion and the conspiracy against the old lady to murder her own son.
"Have you heard that General Xiang was nearly killed by his own mother?"
"Oh? And there's this matter, does Madam Xiang want to kill our general?"
"Pretty much. I heard that the Second House and the Old Madam took the Young Lady's reward to pay off her gambling debts. The General found out, and the Old Madam, desperate to protect the Second House, stabbed them."
"Oh my, this mother is too partial."
"Who says it isn't? The casualties in the battle in the north were heavy. The emperor originally wanted to let General Xiang take charge and go to war today, but he didn't expect that people would be injured like this. Without General Xiang, the northern city might be lost."
"Is the war in the north so serious?"
"Alas, without anyone in command, the border will surely be lost."
Everyone thought it was just a trivial family matter and treated it as a joke, but they didn't expect it to involve national affairs and the city was in danger. Anyone with a little bit of passion could not bear it.
"Damn the old lady of the Xiang family! How many people on the border must have died because of her actions?"
"The vicious old woman is too safe in Kyoto. She has fought in the battlefield for many years to protect the general and defend the country. Yet, she actually hurt our general for a scoundrel and gambler from the second wife's house. No, I must go to the gate of the general's mansion and curse that old woman to death."
"Yes, this vicious old woman, how dare she stay in Kyoto? Send her to the border to escape the famine."
"Come on, let's go to the General's Mansion and speak up for our General."
The crowd who had been listening to the excitement suddenly became excited and united. They stood up and rushed straight to the general's mansion.
At the same time, several fair-looking young men, dressed in civilian clothes, spread the news wantonly in the next street. Soon, everyone in Kyoto knew about it, from people in their eighties to children of a few years old.
Thinking of the people at the border, everyone wanted to eat the old lady alive.
She is not worthy of being a Beili person, let alone a mother.
The gate of the general's mansion was crowded with people and very noisy. The loudest voices were those who were fighting for justice for Marquis Xiang Ming. There were also many people who wanted to beat, kill and curse the second wife and the old lady.
Even the little kids were riding on their father's head, raising their little hands and cursing the old lady.
The scene was grand and united.
The housekeeper was frightened by the scene at the gate of the general's mansion when he woke up early in the morning, so he turned around and went to Yuehua Cottage.
