General Xie looked at Xie Lingqin with extremely complicated eyes.
"Xie Lingqin, don't talk big." Xie Lingyu said urgently, "Father, I'll send someone to fetch a doctor right away."
General Xie did not object.
Xie Lingqin did not refute at all, but stepped forward to help General Xie support Aunt Wan.
General Xie's expression at this moment was like the calm before a storm.
"No, it's not Miss..." Aunt Wan, who had been in so much pain that she was almost unconscious, finally regained consciousness for a moment. Her words, though soft, were enough for everyone to hear.
General Xie's expression remained somber, though it was somewhat better.
Yuwen Xian glanced at Yu Qingyi, who was standing to the side with raised eyebrows and an air of nonchalance, pondered for a moment, and then said nothing.
The ladies who came to the General's Mansion for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet today were just there to join in the fun and hopefully get to know Wang Renyi, Prince Yi, and Young Master Li. Little did they expect that things would happen one after another at the General's Mansion, catching them off guard.
Just now, we witnessed the general ruthlessly kicking out the second concubine, and now, this pregnant concubine Wan is doing the same thing...
They were caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to leave or stay. They wanted to offer some words of comfort, but they didn't want to incur General Xie's stern anger and cause trouble for themselves.
Wang Renyi was actually quite relieved at this moment. His second aunt was his aunt, and she had been driven out by General Xie. He was powerless to say a word. Now that Aunt Wan was in such a state, if it were to involve his cousin Xie Lingyu, he would truly lose face. However, fortunately, it was Xie Lingqin who was the target of everyone's criticism.
He secretly exchanged a glance with Xie Lingyu, and the two understood each other without saying a word.
Xie Lingqin took in the glances of the two women, a cold smile rising in her heart. She said nothing more, but helped Aunt Wan into the house.
“Father, Aunt is a woman, it’s inconvenient for you to be here, let me do it.”
General Xie hesitated for a long time, looking deeply at Xie Lingqin without saying a word.
"Father, we should still be careful, in case..." Xie Lingyu stepped forward at the right moment. At this time, how could she let Xie Lingqin steal the limelight?
"Second sister, if you delay Aunt Wan's treatment, are you prepared to take responsibility?" Xie Lingqin slowly raised her eyes, showing no respect for Xie Lingyu in front of General Xie and everyone else. "Or are you deliberately trying to delay it?"
So calm and composed, so stern and stern.
Xie Lingyu was speechless for a moment.
Xie Lingqin...
Such composure and self-assurance from Xie Lingqin...
"Alright, as your father, I believe you." General Xie finally spoke, then turned and left the room.
Xie Lingyu was secretly annoyed, but had no choice but to follow.
"Father, I..."
"Get out of my way!" General Xie roared at Xie Danling, who was hanging his head and trying to say something.
Xie Danling immediately lowered her head even further without saying a word.
He was terrified by what had happened.
He had no time to care about who was right or wrong; all he wanted now was for Aunt Wan and the baby in her womb to be alright.
Outside the courtyard, a group of people had different expressions and dared not speak loudly.
Yuwen Xian glanced at Xie Lingyu who had come out, then looked at Yu Qingyi with a probing look, "Young Master Yi, what do you think of today's events?"
"Does Your Highness know anything about women giving birth?" Yu Qingyi raised an eyebrow and asked rhetorically, which immediately made Yuwen Xian's face turn ugly. However, he could not lash out because of the occasion, so he could only lower his voice and say, "Yu Qingyi, this is the General's Mansion after all. You'd better watch your words."
"I didn't say anything. Besides, your royal uncle dotes on you and likes me too. When did you ever need to tell me what to do?" Yu Qingyi suddenly stood up from his seat and raised his voice. "I'm not saying this to be mean, but Prince Xian, the general will make his own decision. You just need to protect the second young lady by your side and not cause any trouble."
This was clearly meant for everyone to hear.
Yuwen Xian gritted his teeth, his face flushed with anger, "Yu Qingyi, stop talking nonsense."
"Hmph." Yu Qingyi snorted coldly, raised his eyebrows, and crossed his arms. "I haven't seen Elder Dong for a long time either. Today, I'll just wait here for a while and see him."
The wise king ignored him and then ordered those behind him, "Qingyi, take your men and go there now using your lightness skills. Tell Elder Dong that I have invited him to come to the General's Mansion to help."
"yes."
Qingyi left immediately.
General Xie immediately came over and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
"General, don't thank me too soon. Most likely, they're not giving face to the Prince Xian, but only to your daughter Xie Lingqin."
"this……"
General Xie, of course, did not believe it.
Even if Elder Dong had previously said that Xie Lingqin was a good person, he still didn't think that Xie Lingqin deserved such a lot of influence.
Although he had just realized that Xie Lingqin, his daughter, was different from usual.
Yuwen Xian then looked at General Xie and said, "General, don't worry, everything will be alright."
"Yes, General, don't worry..."
The Marquis of Loyalty and Courage, who had been mostly silent, stepped forward to offer his comfort.
Yu Qingyi stood aside, offering no explanation, and looked at the room through the door.
"Little girl, are you planning to impress everyone this time?"
The sound was transmitted secretly, landing on the earlobe.
Xie Lingqin lowered her brows slightly and looked at Aunt Wan, who was barely breathing on the bed. "Don't worry, Doctor Dong will be here soon."
"Miss, I..." Aunt Wan seemed to want to say something, but her stomach hurt too much, so she stopped herself from speaking.
Before long, Qingyi, who was beside the wise king, landed from the sky and stood in front of the wise king.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, we couldn't find anyone to invite."
Yuwen Xian frowned. He knew that Elder Dong was a man of strange temperament, but he did not expect him to show no respect whatsoever.
