Chapter 233 He Can't Lose He'er
Yun didn't sleep all night. When she heard that Wei Lingze had returned from the Xiao family, she immediately came to find him.
"What does the Xiao family say? Where is He'er?"
Wei Lingze's face was bruised from being beaten. Yun felt distressed, but more anxious.
Wei Lingze glanced at her and said solemnly, "The Xiao family contacted the doctor from Huichun Hall last night. They already knew that He'er had a miscarriage. They want He'er to stay at the Xiao family to recuperate for a while, and they also want us to send He'er's maids and servants back home."
Yun's eyelids twitched wildly when he heard the last sentence.
The Xiao family even wanted to send back the maids and old women who came with the dowry, clearly intending to sever ties with the Wei family. Yun suppressed her panic and asked, "Is this the Xiao family's idea or He'er's?"
"I don't know," Wei Lingze was a little annoyed by the question, "The Xiao family won't let me see her at all."
"The Xiao family doesn't let you see He'er, which means He'er is still soft-hearted and cares about the old relationship. I'll go with you again. As long as we see He'er, everything will be fine."
As Yun was about to go out, she saw Wei Lingze standing there motionless.
Yun stopped and looked at him. Wei Lingze said with a cold face, "She and the Xiao family are all angry right now. Going there will only make things difficult for us. It's better to let them calm down first."
"How can this be possible? We need to let the Xiao family see our sincerity right now. If He'er's heart turns cold, there will be no way to save her."
Yun disagreed, but Wei Lingze insisted, "I need to focus more on the winter hunt instead of focusing on women. Mother wouldn't want me to lose to a cripple during the winter hunt and bring shame to the Wei family, right?"
After saying this, Wei Lingze ignored Yun and went straight back to his study.
Not long after, a carrier pigeon flew into the house.
Wei Lingze took the letter and after reading its contents, his face became extremely gloomy.
The person he arranged to pick up Chunxi in Yunzhou was killed, and Chunxi also pretended to be a member of the Wei family and caused trouble in Yunzhou, crippling the leg of the only son of the Yunzhou governor.
This incident caused a big uproar in Yunzhou, and the wet nurse he arranged to buy a house for her, as well as the maids and guards who were responsible for guarding Chunxi were all arrested by the Yunzhou government.
The lady of Yunzhou Prefecture was rushing to Hanjing with her son whose leg was broken, ready to seek justice for her son.
Crash!
Wei Lingze swept the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table to the ground, his face ferocious, almost crazy.
Cao Chunxi, this bitch!
He shouldn't have been soft-hearted towards her. He should have killed her directly from the day she betrayed the Wei family!
Wei Lingze was extremely angry, but behind the anger, there was a trace of uncontrollable panic.
He did have someone buy a house in Yunzhou, and there was both witnesses and evidence. Now the Yunzhou government has determined that he had a concubine and an illegitimate child, and that he had crippled the son's leg for this concubine. The matter was brought to Hanjing, and he had no way of explaining himself.
The Xiao family was already furious when they knew about He'er's miscarriage. If they knew about this matter again, they could take the opportunity to propose a divorce.
Once they divorce, there will be no future for him and He'er.
As soon as this thought came to mind, Wei Lingze felt a dull pain in his heart.
At this moment, he realized very clearly that he could not lose He'er.
But he had already lost the opportunity to take action against Chunxi. If he wanted to keep the secret now, he could only let the lady of the provincial government and her son die on the road.
Wei Lingze's eyes turned cold and he quickly made a decision.
At the same time, the Xiao family.
Chunxi told the story of how he was kidnapped, instigated Uncle Tiger and Uncle Leopard to rebel, found out the mastermind behind the incident, and finally caused a big commotion in Yunzhou in the name of the Wei family.
Mrs. Xiao felt a little uncomfortable when she first heard that Wei Lingze wanted to raise her secretly in Yunzhou, but she was completely shocked when she heard the rest.
An ordinary woman would have been frightened out of her wits if she was kidnapped. How could Ah Xi incite the kidnappers to rebel and even beat the son of the Yunzhou governor into a cripple in the name of the Wei family?
Old Madam Xiao accepted this very easily. She turned her head and said to Madam Xiao, "Later, have someone select fifty skilled men to secretly welcome the governor's wife. Make sure that they and their son can arrive in Hanjing safely."
Madam Xiao’s eyelids twitched, and she asked uncertainly, “Mother, do you mean that Ze’er will attack them?”
Although Madam Xiao was very angry about what happened to Xiao Qinghe, her impression of Wei Lingze still remained from a few years ago, and she did not think that Wei Lingze would dare to murder the lady of the provincial governor.
Madam Xiao didn't explain too much, she just said lightly: "The road ahead is long and arduous, no one knows what will happen, it's always better to be safe."
Once the governor's wife arrives in Beijing, the Xiao family can seize the opportunity to file for divorce by claiming that Wei Lingze has a mistress and an illegitimate child.
Madam Xiao knew what Madam Xiao was planning, and she nodded immediately, “Okay, I’ll arrange it right away.”
Xiao Qinghe was not in a good state, so Chunxi talked to her for a long time and left only after dinner.
Chunxi didn't expect Wei Lingze to do such a despicable thing. She was not in a good mood after leaving the Xiao family. She decided to come to the Xiao family more often to accompany He'er in the next few days to prevent He'er from being upset.
Chunxi was a little distracted because of something she was thinking about. So when she lifted the car curtain, she found Xiao Yechen, such a big man, standing in the car. Chunxi was so scared that she almost screamed.
“Don’t be afraid, Madam Shen, it’s me.”
Xiao Yechen spoke in time, but even so, Chunxi's heart was still pounding with fear.
No, it was almost dark, and there was suddenly such a living person in the carriage. Who wouldn't be afraid?
Chunxi patted his chest and took two deep breaths before getting into the carriage. As soon as he sat down, he heard Xiao Yechen ask, "Is the young lady okay?"
Chunxi was not used to this address and was stunned for a moment before realizing that he was asking about Xiao Qinghe.
Chunxi knew that he was the one who rescued He'er last night and said truthfully, "He'er still has a slight fever. She was frightened and very sad. She's not in a good condition."
"Then can Madam Shen please spend more time with the young lady these days?" Xiao Yechen immediately asked, and before Chunxi could answer, he added, "As long as Madam Shen is willing to do this, no matter what problems Madam Shen encounters in the future, Wuyou Pavilion will do its utmost to help her!"
The promise is tempting.
But Chunxi refused without a second thought: "He'er calls me little aunt, which means she treats me as an elder. It's my duty to care about her, without any benefits from others."
Xiao Yechen's eyes suddenly darkened.
Yes, Madam Shen is the eldest lady's elder, and it is her duty to care about the eldest lady. He is the one who is not qualified to care about the eldest lady.
"Thank you very much."
After saying this, Xiao Yechen was about to get off the car. Just as he lifted the curtain a little, he heard Chunxi say, "By the way, He'er asked me to bring you a message. Thank you for saving me last night."
Xiao Yechen's eyes suddenly brightened, and his heart began to beat uncontrollably. He was about to ask Xiao Qinghe if she had said anything else, but the curtain of the car was suddenly opened, and Shen Qingyuan, who had come to pick up Chunxi, stood outside: "What are you doing?"
Chunxi: “…”!!!
