Chapter 215 Full of Concern
Yan saw the anxiety on Xie Rongying's face, and she reached out to stroke her daughter's cheek.
"What are you looking for Xie Ting for? You need to rest well now." Yan's tone was full of concern.
Such concern was undoubtedly unfamiliar to Xie Rongying, but she also knew that Yan's previous complicated attitude towards her was also due to her resentment towards Xie Jing.
Now that she was injured, the concern and heartache in Yan's eyes could not be hidden.
I think after so many years, Yan no longer has any complicated feelings towards her daughter Xie Rongying.
"Mother, I have something urgent to discuss with Xie Ting." Xie Rongying frowned after saying this.
Yan saw Xie Rongying's anxiety and stood up and walked towards the door.
The door was opened and Dongxue and Cuizhi walked forward.
"Madam, has the girl woken up?" Cuizhi stepped forward and asked.
Yan said, "Go back to Xie Mansion and find Xie Ting. Rongying wants to see him."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Cuizhi of course knew the reason why Xie Rongying wanted to see Xie Ting when she woke up. After saying that, she turned around and trotted away.
Yan Lan noticed that Cuizhi and Dongxue looked a little strange. After Cuizhi left, Yan Lan walked to Dongxue.
"Why did Rongying let Yunniang go for no reason?" Yan Lan asked in a somewhat pressing tone, "Is Rongying not having a good time in the Yongyi Marquis's residence?"
Apart from the fact that the people from the Xie family went to the nunnery and told Xie Rongying about her marriage, they didn't know anything about Xie Rongying's stay in the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion.
It’s not that Yan doesn’t care, but Yan believes that with the Xie family around, Xie Rongying will not suffer in the Yongyi Marquis’ Mansion.
"Why don't you say anything?" Yan Lan took another step forward, put her hands on her hips, and stared at Dong Xue: "Judging from your expression, Rong Ying must have suffered."
Yan, who was about to turn around, stopped after hearing Yan Lan's words.
"After the young lady married into the Yongyi Marquis's mansion, she and the young marquis grew to dislike each other. The marquis had someone he loved, and he married her for the dowry the Xie family had prepared for her, to cover the debt the Yongyi Marquis's mansion owed the imperial court." Dongxue spoke with a hint of anger. "The Qin family thought that after marrying the young lady into their family, she would humble herself and serve the Qin family for the sake of so-called face, but she didn't live up to their expectations."
"Before he and the girl were married for half a month, Qin Junyi took a concubine into the family, and his mother even threatened the girl."
After hearing about what Xie Rongying had experienced in the Qin family, Yan's eyes became even redder, and she seemed to be enduring something.
"The young lady has long discovered the true identity of Qin Junyi's concubine." Dong Xue glanced around as she spoke. Seeing that no one was around, she continued in a low voice, "She has also long discovered that the Qin family is colluding with the traitorous Shangguan family, so she has been looking for a chance to escape without implicating the Xie family."
After hearing this, Yan Lan gritted her teeth and cursed, "Another bastard!"
Only then did Yan walk back into the house.
She sat back down on the armchair beside the bed, and seeing that Xie Rongying had closed her eyes, she did not ask any further questions.
When Xie Rongying opened her eyes, she saw worry and sadness between Yan's brows.
Yan felt the gaze and looked towards Xie Rongying: "You should rest well and don't talk too much."
"Okay." After Xie Rongying finished speaking, she closed her eyes again.
Yan realized that Xie Rongying's injury this time was not as simple as she knew, and there must be other things involved.
But Xie Rongying didn't mention it, and the maid outside didn't show any intention of talking to her.
Thinking that Xie Rongying needed to rest at this time and not be too tired or worried, she didn't know where to start.
So, Yan stayed here for about half an hour.
When Xie Rongying opened her eyes again, Yan asked, "Rongying, if you have something, you can't hide it from your mother, and you can't let yourself get hurt like this time."
Xie Rongying understood the hidden meaning in Yan's words.
"I think you've seen a lot of unreliable things in your father, so this time you chose to get rid of the Xie family while getting rid of the Qin family. But Rongying, you can discuss everything with your mother."
Xie Rongying was moved by these words. She pondered for a moment and said, "I understand, mother."
When Yan was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.
"Madam, the young master is here." Cuizhi's voice came from outside.
The door was pushed open, Xie Ting walked in, and Yan stood up.
When Xie Ting saw Yan, he called out obediently, "Auntie."
Yan knew that Xie Rongying and Xie Ting had something to say, so she smiled and said, "You guys chat, I'll go out first."
Xie Ting nodded in response and watched Yan walk out of the room. After Cuizhi closed the door, he withdrew his gaze and walked towards Xie Rongying.
Xie Rongying originally wanted to sit up, but the wound hurt as soon as she moved. She looked at Xie Ting who was walking over and patted the bed.
Xie Ting understood, sat down on the edge of the bed, and looked at Xie Rongying seriously.
"What's wrong?" Xie Rongying rarely saw Xie Ting so serious: "You don't want to come to see me."
Xie Ting put Xie Rongying's exposed body back into the blankets and said, "The Emperor and the Crown Prince now hate the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion to the extreme. The Emperor is very satisfied that the Shangguan family has once again been exposed to the eyes of the people of Dayin in this way. Now everyone will believe that the Shangguan family was able to escape because of the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion and had nothing to do with him."
"Emperor Ren De has denied any connection with Shangguan Yan. In this game, Emperor Ren De is the winner." Xie Ting naturally knew that this was a game set by Xie Rongying and King Wei.
Xie Ting knew it from the moment the prince's men and Qin Junyi rescued Shangguan Yan from the Prince of Wei's mansion.
But after this game, it seemed that only Xie Rongying suffered such serious injuries.
Xie Rongying also saw what Xie Ting was dissatisfied with. She laughed, "If I hadn't been injured so badly, who would believe it? Even if the emperor wanted to deny any collusion with Shangguan, if he didn't make it look more convincing, he wouldn't be suspicious."
"Even though the Xie family is still needed for many things now, for the emperor, as long as there is a clan that can replace the Xie family, the Xie family will definitely become a meal on the emperor's plate."
"Injuring one thousand enemies only to injure eight hundred of your own?" Xie Ting sneered, "Do you know that you nearly died? Do you know that after hearing about your accident, your grandmother forced herself to come see you?"
Listening to Xie Ting's reproach, Xie Rongying smiled softly: "Now I just want to know what's going on with King Wei, and what happened to Qin Junyi and Shangguan Jing."
Xie Ting was slightly stunned. He had not contacted King Wei in the few hours since Xie Rongying's accident.
What's more, the King of Wei was not in Bian Jing at all.
"Qin Junyi and Shangguan Jing are still missing. The palace guards are searching everywhere, the city gates are closed, and the entire city is being arrested." Xie Ting said.
Xie Rongying's eyes turned cold. "Does this mean that Qin Junyi and Shangguan Jing didn't fall into the hands of Emperor Ren De?"
