Chapter 495: Drive Away
Mrs. Rong'an sneered, "Xu is our uncle's eldest daughter who was lost when she was young. Isn't she obsessed with finding her ancestral home? I came here with my uncle, and she has this attitude?"
Rong Anbo's expression changed slightly: "Madam!"
"My Lord, this is the truth, and it must be known to all."
Uncle Rong An shut up.
Yes, they came today to tell Xu Zhichun that they agreed to let her return to her ancestral home. Sooner or later, this matter will spread and everyone will know about it.
It might be a good idea to say it now.
After all, they don't have the time to talk too much with irrelevant people. They want to see Xu Zhichun now.
Their daughter is still suffering in the palace.
Lu Yin obviously didn't expect them to do this. She was stunned for a moment: "What?"
Are these two crazy? Weren't they wary and repulsive before, afraid that my sister would bring up the idea of ancestral recognition? And yet, my sister never mentioned it, and now they're bringing it up?
What the hell is wrong with you!
Yes, he is not crazy, but trying to use his sister to help them, right?
She actually forgot that they were no longer Marquis of Rong'an, but Earl of Rong'an. No wonder they came to visit.
He is quite good at saving face.
Lu Yin felt contempt in her heart.
Lu Yin's dazed look obviously caused Rong Anbo and his wife to misunderstand.
They felt strangely proud and happy in their hearts - you treated us so arrogantly before, do you know you were wrong now? We are Xu's parents!
Rong Anbo snorted and gave a command that sounded condescending, "Now that you know our identities, you don't need us to teach you how to do it, right? What are you still doing standing here? Go get them both."
Lady Rong'an was both irritated and pleased, "The Emperor rules the country with filial piety. This unfilial behavior is a grave offense. If the Censor reports it, you could lose your position and title!"
"That's exactly what I said."
Lu Yin: “.”
She couldn't stand it any longer and raised her eyebrows sarcastically: "Lord Rong'an, Mrs. Rong'an, are you thinking about something else?"
"What do you mean?"
"My sister's parents died in an accident a long time ago. How can there be any parents? Are you mistaken?"
"You—we can't explain it to you clearly. Call Xu Zhichun out!"
"Lord Rong'an, please show some respect!" Lu Yin's face suddenly turned sullen and she scolded him, "My sister is the Marquis's wife, and Lord Rong'an calls her by her first name. Doesn't that mean he doesn't take the Marquis of Wuxuan's mansion seriously? Who gave Lord Rongan the courage?"
Uncle Rong An was stunned.
Mrs. Rong Anbo was furious: "It's a rebellion! It's really a rebellion!"
Lu Yinke didn't tolerate them at all. "Yes, you are rebellious! You have no idea of rules or etiquette. You, the Rong'an Marquis' Mansion, are truly rebellious! No wonder you have ended up like this. It turns out that you are just that kind of people."
"you--"
"Someone, show the guests out!"
"You dare!"
"What are you still standing there for? Show him out. If he refuses to leave, kick him out."
"Yes, Miss Lu."
Lu Yin's instructions were clear and unambiguous. After Xu Zhichun's discipline, how could the servants dare to disobey him? Immediately, a maid stepped forward and rudely asked the Rong Anbo couple to leave.
The couple was extremely angry. They shouted and scolded Lu Yin angrily, and yelled at Xu Zhichun to "get out."
The servants were horrified when they heard this. How could this be? Had the Rong An Earl and his wife gone mad? They came to the Marquis's residence to curse their own wife? Who did they think they were?
"Uncle, Madam, I'm sorry!"
The housekeeper shouted, and several strong-armed maids came up and drove Rong Anbo and his wife out without saying a word.
The door to the mansion slammed shut in front of the two men with a loud bang. They were startled and looked at each other, embarrassed, angry, and questioning their lives.
"Rebellious girl! Rebellious girl! This rebellious girl! How can this be justified!"
"How dare she? How dare she!"
"I will never in my lifetime—cough cough cough cough!"
I couldn't say anything harsh, so I could only cover it up with a cough.
Will he never recognize her in this life? Is that possible?
Now, the couple knew clearly who was begging whom.
Mrs. Rong'an choked up and wiped away her tears, "Unfortunate for our family, unfortunate for our family, Master!"
Lady Rong'an was extremely panicked. What should she do with her daughter? Her daughter had now been deposed and imprisoned for life as a commoner. The Queen Mother had said that unless Xu Zhichun was recognized, she would never help her daughter.
The couple went back covered in dust and dirt, like defeated roosters.
Lu Yin was full of confusion and hurried to find Xu Zhichun and Liang Minglang to tell them what the couple had said.
"Now that the two of them have brought this up, I'm afraid they won't let it go easily."
Liang Minglang frowned and said disdainfully, "That's something they can do."
Xu Zhichun chuckled, "Xue Qian was deposed and imprisoned for life for attempting to murder the Empress. Naturally, they couldn't sit still. I expected them to come knocking on our door, and sure enough, they did."
Lu Yin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "It's good that you understand."
Xu Zhichun nodded: "Don't worry. Leave them alone and let them do whatever they want. Anyway, it's impossible to recognize them back."
Lu Yin felt relieved after hearing this: "Then I'll wait and see the fun."
The two smiled at each other.
Ji Yingxuan also knew about this matter. Coincidentally, he wrote a letter back to his home in Nanjing, and they also sent an old servant over. After discussing with Xu Zhichun and others, Ji Yingxuan sent an official matchmaker to the house with great fanfare to propose marriage, asking to marry the sister of the wife of Marquis Wuxuan.
He wrote home to discuss marriage with his parents.
He had not married for many years and was stubborn, so no one dared to force him. Now he was willing to marry. Although the other party had forgotten her past and was an orphan, she had saved the life of the wife of Marquis Wuxuan - this was what Xu Zhichun announced to the public.
She is the adopted sister of Lady Wuxuan Hou and is deeply loved by Lady Wuxuan Hou.
In this way, she is worthy of her own son.
Even though Ji's parents were still a little dissatisfied and felt that the situation was not satisfactory, they could not find any fault and would rather accept it.
Otherwise, it is not certain when their son would be willing to get married.
So, he sent his old servant to discuss the marriage.
When the wedding date was set and the wedding was approaching, they set off for the capital.
Since Ji Yingxuan asked for marriage, Xu Zhichun naturally would not refuse.
The two sides quickly exchanged engagement letters and set a wedding date.
The powerful officials in the capital were surprised but not surprised. Lord Ji had been close to the Marquis of Wuxuan recently. So that's why.
The Emperor was delighted to hear that Ji Yingxuan was getting married and showered him with gifts. The Empress also gifted Lu Yin a white jade ruyi, a set of head ornaments inlaid with kingfisher feathers and rubies and sapphires, two pieces of scarlet kesi silk with pomegranate flowers and butterflies, and a pair of vases inscribed with the harem of fertility and good fortune.
For a time, Ji Yingxuan, Lu Yin, and the Wuxuanhou Mansion were all in great glory and honor.
