Chapter 30: Being Stabbed in the Back



Yun Wanrou was too lazy to beat around the bush with him and said bluntly, "Let's not beat around the bush. The cabinet minister came here today not just to bring them here to apologize, right?"

"Hahahaha, Madam Jiang is a straightforward person, so I will speak frankly.

An brought them here today, firstly to apologize to his wife and Heng Ge'er.

Secondly, I hope that Heng Ge'er can come forward and tell everyone that this is a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstand?"

Yun Wanrou sneered and shook her head.

"Excuse me, is it a misunderstanding that Young Master An insulted me, or is it a misunderstanding that your servant took advantage of his power to bully others?

If Heng Ge'er did what you said, would you then say that it was Heng Ge'er who was biting you?"

"you……"

An Neige felt unhappy when his thoughts were exposed by Yun Wanrou.

He didn't want to talk much to the woman, so he turned around and praised Jiang Huaishu.

Jiang Huaishu met his eyes and quickly pulled Yun Wanrou's sleeve.

"Arou, how can you say that about the cabinet? The cabinet is a clean and upright person, and he would never do something like what you said."

“Your Majesty is an official in the court, so naturally he knows the cabinet officials better than I do.

But I am just a woman, I am short-sighted, I don't want to put myself and my family at risk, I hope the cabinet will forgive me."

As she spoke, Yun Wanrou bowed to An Neige and walked back with Yun Heng.

Seeing them step over the threshold, An Neige frowned and glared at Jiang Huaishu unhappily.

"My Lord, what does your wife mean by this? We came here to apologize sincerely, but she judged me by her own standards. Is this how people in your mansion behave?"

An Neige's cheeks turned slightly red, obviously because of Yun Wanrou's anger.

Jiang Huaishu hurried forward and clasped his fists towards him.

"Mr. Cabinet, you are the backbone of the Qingliu lineage, and the emperor now values ​​you very much. Why do you have to argue with a woman?

As for Arou, I will go and persuade her again. Please give me some more time, Mr. Cabinet."

"Okay, for your sake, I won't bother with her. But you know what the situation is like outside.

An will give you three days at most. Yun Heng must clarify this matter to everyone within three days."

"Understood, understood!"

Jiang Huaishu nodded and bowed, keeping his attitude very humble.

It was as if the people who did something wrong were not Young Master An, but Yun Heng and Yun Wanrou.

The An cabinet was very satisfied with his attitude.

He glanced at Jiang Huaishu, then turned and left with Young Master An and the servant.

Watching their backs disappear into the distance, Jiang Huaishu breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking of Yun Wanrou's attitude towards An Neige just now, he frowned, turned around and walked quickly into the room.

"Arou, you just went too far!"

"My Lord, do you think that Young Master An is justified in insulting me?"

Yun Wanrou stared at him with cold eyes.

In Jiang Huaishu's heart, Yun Wanrou has always been a gentle woman.

It was the first time he saw her angry with him.

"That's not what I meant. It's just that Cabinet An brought Young Master An to apologize, and they have done what they should do. He just asked Brother Heng to help explain it, there's no need for you to do this..."

"If the Marquis is here to lobby for him, then there is no need to say anything more!"

Yun Wanrou interrupted him.

"Heng'er is my eldest brother's legitimate son. I will never allow him to suffer any injustice!"

Yun Wanrou didn't say anything, her attitude was very firm.

Let Yun Heng go out and explain that this was just a misunderstanding and it was a pity that the An cabinet could come up with this idea.

If Yun Heng did this, then what was the purpose of everything she asked Wangshu to do before?

Isn't this all back to square one?

If Yun Heng were to bear this stain, he would have no chance of pursuing a career in politics in the future.

Even if he left home and went out to meet people, he would still be criticized!

Jiang Huaishu only cared about pleasing the An cabinet, but didn't care about Yun Heng's life or death at all. He was extremely selfish!

Jiang Huaishu didn't expect that Yun Wanrou's attitude would be so tough.

Seeing that she couldn't hear anything at the moment, it would be useless to say anything.

Jiang Huaishu hesitated for a moment and said, "An Neige is now a favorite of the emperor. It will be of no benefit to us if we offend him.

Ah Rou, think about it carefully. The An cabinet has given us three days. As long as we clarify this matter within three days, it will still be in time. "

After saying this, Jiang Huaishu shook his head, turned around and left.

Watching his back disappearing out the door, Yun Heng pursed his lips.

"Aunt, I'm sorry for getting you into trouble. Otherwise, you should just let me out and say this is a misunderstanding."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Yun Wanrou frowned and ruffled his hair.

"It's true that Young Master An insulted me and drove Master Cheng away. You have to remember that as long as you are not wrong, you don't have to put yourself in a difficult position for anyone at any time, understand?"

"Um!"

Yun Heng nodded, with a layer of mist in his eyes.

His aunt treated him better than his own parents.

When he grows up and passes the imperial examination, he will definitely repay his aunt!

The Marquis' Mansion was very lively that day.

Not long after An Neige left, Yun Xiucheng came again with Yun Yi.

As soon as he entered the room, Yun Xiucheng had a sullen look on his face, which scared Yun Heng so much that he hid behind Yun Wanrou.

"Why are you hiding? Can I eat you?"

"Dad, don't scare Heng."

Yun Xiucheng looked angry, and even Yun Yi, not to mention Yun Heng, was scared when he saw it.

Only Yun Wanrou dared to advise him when he was angry.

Yun Xiucheng looked at Yun Wanrou and sighed softly.

"As an aunt, you can't always indulge him. Be careful not to spoil him."

"No. I know Heng'er's character very well. He is not a child who grew up in pampering. He can't be bad."

[That's not necessarily true. My cousin is still so young, he's not a bad person now, he just hasn't met a bad person. If someone deliberately teaches him to be bad, a child this young can easily be taught badly.]

Hearing Yangyang's voice, Yun Wanrou's eyelids jumped.

Her daughter always talks about something.

Is it possible that Heng Ge'er will really be spoiled by her in the future?

Yun Xiucheng also heard Yangyang's thoughts and frowned even more tightly.

He waved to Yun Heng: "Come on, follow me back."

"Grandfather, I...I don't want to go back."

Yun Heng hid behind Yun Wanrou.

His parents are out of town, and his second uncle is a fool.

Now when he goes back with his grandfather, there is no one to help him.

If he stays with his aunt, she will protect him and his grandfather will not scold him to his face.

Seeing that he was resisting, Yun Xiucheng withdrew his hand and deliberately softened his tone.

"If you don't go back, will you stay at your aunt's house every day and not even go to school?"

"Dad, I've already dropped out of An's Academy."
