Chapter 156 My name is Xiao Yan
After Xie Shuangbai coaxed Rong Chi to sleep, he crawled into Rong Ye's bed.
He felt very comfortable leaning against the human-shaped stove. Rong Chi was also a small stove. With them around, he didn't need a hot water bottle.
Xie Shuangbai rested his head against Rong Ye's chest and whispered to him, "Can you write a transfer order to send Qin Yan to the border?"
Rong Ye didn't say anything, and Xie Shuangbai thought he was unwilling.
He explained, "With Qin Yan, Mu Ning, and Old Madam Qin acting like this, I'm worried something might happen. It's better to separate them so everyone can calm down."
Rong Ye looked down at him and said, "You still have to worry about Mu Ning's affairs."
Xie Shuangbai said softly, "Mu Ning is also a pitiful man. Besides, isn't Qin Yan also your capable general? Who am I worrying about so much?"
Rong Ye smiled: "Then I have to thank my wife for planning this for me."
Xie Shuangbai was so angry that she pinched his tendon in the quilt.
Rong Ye looked at his cat-like scratching strength and smiled at his angry little expression.
"I originally wanted to let Qin Yan go after the New Year. If that's the case, I'll write a transfer order tomorrow and have him leave for the border immediately."
After saying that, she kissed him and said, "Is Madam satisfied with this?"
Xie Shuangbai raised his little fist and threatened him: "Rong Ye, I think you're asking for a fight!"
Rong Ye was amused by him and grasped his slender wrist: "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. You've been tired these past few days. Get some sleep today!"
Xie Shuangbai was indeed tired and sleepy. He nodded, hugged Rong Ye and fell asleep in a short while.
The next day, Rongye acted extremely quickly.
After breakfast, Rong Yi was asked to go to Qin's house with the transfer order.
The Qin Mansion can be said to be shrouded in shadow these days.
Old Mrs. Qin also looked several years older.
The confidant beside her couldn't bear it and said, "Madam, why don't you just let the young master out?"
Old Lady Qin threw the cup in anger and scolded:
"Listen up, everyone! If anyone dares to release this rebellious son without permission, don't blame me for being merciless!"
Seeing how determined Madam Qin was, everyone was afraid to speak even if they wanted to plead for her.
Soon, a servant came to report: "Madam, the prince sent someone to ask to see the general!"
Old Lady Qin frowned. The prince's order was a matter of national importance, and she, a woman, could not delay it.
She ordered in a deep voice, "Go and bring that rebellious son out."
Qin Yan has had a hard time these days. Ever since he was kidnapped that day, he has been locked up in a small dark room by his mother.
His mother said that she would release him only when he admitted his mistake.
In the past, Qin Yan would definitely admit his mistake, but this time he just refused to admit it. He didn't think he was wrong. What was wrong with liking someone?
The room was pitch black, and one couldn't tell day from night.
He was lying on the bed in a daze when he suddenly heard heavy footsteps coming towards him.
Qin Yan wanted to get up, but he was too hungry.
His mind raced. There was no way he could let him go. He knew his mother was incredibly stubborn. If he refused to admit his mistakes, she might even lock him up until he died.
Could it be that Mu Ning is here?
While he was still daydreaming, the door was opened.
The light came in, and his eyes were hurt by the sting. He turned his hand to block the strong light outside the door.
The butler's calm voice rang out: "Master, please come out with us."
Qin Yan looked over: the servants all had expressionless faces. In the past, he thought the house rules were strict, but now he just felt annoyed.
He lay on the bed and looked into the void. Why had he never realized that the Qin Mansion was such a depressing place before?
He seemed to understand a little bit why his father left his mother and went out with that concubine.
He stood up unsteadily, his legs too weak to stand.
When the housekeeper saw this, he quickly asked several servants to help him.
Qin Yan was dragged to the reception room.
Rong Yi was already waiting there, but he was still shocked when he saw Qin Yan in such a miserable state.
He asked seriously:
"How did General Qin become like this? How dare you mistreat the Anti-Barbarian General like this? I will definitely report this to the prince!"
The servants had heard of the title of the Living King of Hell, and they were so scared that they knelt on the ground to apologize, looking at Old Madam Qin with vague eyes.
"General, we..."
Old Madam Qin knew he was talking about her and felt very upset.
But she knew that Mu Ning had taken care of the prince's son for quite some time under his nose.
If the prince had not indulged him, his son would not have become what he is today. Now that she is disciplining her own son, it is her fault.
Madam Qin didn't even raise her eyes: "I asked them to do this. If the prince wants to punish me, I will bear the responsibility!"
Rong Yi saw that Madam Qin was so tough that she even dared to confront the prince.
On the one hand, I feel sorry for Qin Yan for having such a strong mother. On the other hand, I also shake my head at Qin Yan's love path.
Rong Yi waved his hand and ordered his men to bring Qin Yan with him.
"I will definitely report this to the prince!"
Rong Yi took Qin Yan to the door and turned to look at Old Madam Qin who was sitting high up.
She looked at them motionlessly like an emotionless and indifferent sculpture.
Rong Yi frowned: "I hope Madam Qin understands that General Qin is not only your son, but also a general of the Great Yin Dynasty!"
After saying that, he took Qin Yan away without waiting for her reaction.
In the huge Qin Mansion, no one dared to move or speak.
Deathly silence.
Old Madam Qin suddenly remembered that her husband had been like that before.
He left so decisively, leaving behind only loneliness.
She looked at the same scene in front of her and couldn't help muttering.
Her ethereal voice echoed in the huge hall.
"Hong Cui, do you think I did something wrong?"
The girl named Hong Cui was the maid that came with Old Madam Qin as a dowry. Now everyone in the mansion called her Hong Ma Ma.
Nanny Hong waved her hand and all the servants retreated.
She stood up and walked to Old Madam Qin, saying distressedly, "Miss, why are you doing this? You've spent your whole life for the Master, the Young Master, and the Qin Mansion, but never for yourself!"
She wiped her tears and said, "You are just too stubborn. You were like that when the master was here, and that's why he was taken advantage of.
Now, Master, you are like this again. You...you are pushing Master away by doing this! "
Old Madam Qin listened to her words and stared blankly into the distance:
"When I was a girl, my mother told me that after I got married, the Xiao family would no longer have me. I would be a member of the Qin family and I would have to consider my husband's family in everything. I would be filial to my parents-in-law and love my children.
I have always followed this, but my mother never told me why I did what she said.
But I still can't win back my husband's heart, and now I can't get rid of my son's resentment!"
She staggered to her feet, and Aunt Hong was so scared that she wanted to help her.
She pushed her away and walked out muttering:
"Mom, tell me, I did everything you taught me! Why is this happening?"
She said in a daze, "I went from being a daughter of the Xiao family to a wife of the Qin family. I lost my last name overnight. Who would still remember me as Xiao Yan now?"
“Hahahahahaha…”
