You know, no matter how powerful Jian Xiu is, she is just a county lord appointed by the emperor himself.
If the emperor hadn't conferred the title on her, Jian Xiu would have been nothing more than an ordinary woman who was slightly more powerful.
But now it is different, once the fourth prince ascends the throne, she will be the emperor's sister.
And she is also a sister who is very respected by the emperor.
Most importantly, this time, the couple had accomplished a great feat.
Without them and his wife, how could the Fourth Prince be where he is today?
Therefore, now the couple are no longer ordinary people climbing up the ladder.
Apart from anything else, just considering this relationship, the Emperor and the Fourth Prince already owed them two generations.
Thinking of this, Fang Jinghong's attitude towards Fang Yisi subconsciously changed.
Meng Binghan certainly knew what her son was thinking, and she didn't mind if the relationship between them as father and daughter was more harmonious.
But the most urgent thing is to divorce Shu Qinglan.
In her opinion, with Shu Qinglan as the troublemaker, even if the relationship between father and daughter reconciles, it will be messed up by her.
This was not the result she wanted to see.
"Mother, why did you ask your son to come here?" As soon as he sat down, Fang Jinghong asked Meng Binghan.
He had also tried to find connections these days, just to distance himself from the Shu Mansion and let everyone speak well of him in front of the Queen because he was the Shangshu.
However, although everyone did not dare to dislike him, the implication of their words was that he should go to Yuanhou Mansion.
Because of the current situation in their Shangshu Mansion, even after divorcing his wife, he may not be able to get rid of it completely.
Apart from the two people in Yuan Hou Mansion who spoke well of him, it would be hard to predict the outcome.
Even if something happened in Shu Mansion, his Shangshu Mansion was completely unaware of it.
But what matters here is that we all prosper together and suffer together!
Originally, Shu Zhiyao from the Marquis of Anding's Mansion should have had a good relationship with the Shu family.
But since they are from the same family, the Shu family will be implicated to some extent.
Because of these thoughts, he couldn't wait to divorce Shu Qinglan.
"I'm sure you know how Shu Qinglan has treated me, your mother, over the years. Let me ask you, it's been so many years since she got married. Has she ever brought me a cup of tea?" Meng Binghan said bluntly.
To her, this was a very clear reminder, and anyone with a little bit of brains should understand what Feng Mengbinghan meant.
Besides, Fang Jinghong is not that kind of fool.
Sure enough, as Meng Binghan finished speaking, Fang Jinghong suddenly had an epiphany.
"Mother, what do you mean..."
"What does mother mean? I'm sure you know that mother just wants to say that the Dashun Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety."
As soon as these words came out, Fang Jinghong stood up quickly, "Mother, son..."
"Okay, I didn't say what you meant. If you understand what I mean, just do it quickly."
Meng Binghan waved his right hand and said.
She was very disappointed with her son.
He did whatever it took to gain his position, even abandoning his own daughter to the countryside and neglecting her for so many years.
Not to mention her granddaughter, she even rarely goes to greet her mother.
Now that he was going to use his own daughter, he could barely be kind to her.
Thinking about it this way, it would be a lie for Meng Binghan to say that he wasn't disappointed.
Fang Jinghong also knew that he was in the wrong and felt guilty towards his mother and daughter over the years.
Yu 놆 said to Fang Yisi, who was silent on the side:
"Yisi, father knows that I have let you down over the years, but father also has his own position. If I hadn't done this, you might not be alive in the Shangshu Mansion now."
"Father, what do you mean?" Fang Yisi asked with a frown.
"Your stepmother Shu Qinglan is not as simple as you think. I agreed to have you driven to the countryside. Firstly, it was to protect you. Secondly, I was selfish for my own position. I just didn't think that you would hate me for so many years."
When saying this, Fang Jinghong was indeed full of shame.
But all these could not bring back Fang Yisi's frozen heart.
She had encountered many dangers in the countryside over the years.
If she hadn't had her grandmother stay by her side all the time, she wouldn't be alive today.
Thinking of this, Fang Yisi looked at Fang Jinghong again, mustered up the courage to sneer:
"You keep saying you're protecting me, but is that really how you protect me now? Have you kept me in the countryside for more than a decade and ignored me? If this is what you call protecting me, then it's unnecessary!"
"To be honest, I no longer have any feelings for the Shangshu Mansion, so I don't care what will happen to the Shangshu Mansion or to you, my father, in the end."
Fang Yisi spoke these words very seriously.
Her meaning was also very clear, she didn't want to do anything for the Shangshu Mansion anymore.
Including going to find Chi Zijin for the Shangshu Mansion.
After hearing Fang Yisi's words, Fang Jinghong unexpectedly lost his temper and revealed a wry smile.
He ignored Fang Yisi, because in his opinion, Fang Yisi was always a child.
Therefore, he looked at his mother Meng Binghan at this time.
"Mother, do you also think that I really don't care about you?"
As soon as these words came out, Meng Binghan was stunned.
Yes, on the surface he seemed to be indifferent to them, but in reality he seemed to have given them everything they deserved.
The most important thing is...
Thinking of this, Meng Binghan suddenly widened his eyes again, "Jinghong, what do you mean..."
"Mother, do you still remember what happened on your way to the countryside?" Fang Jinghong asked again.
"Are you telling me about the ambush we encountered on the road as a family?" Meng Binghan looked at Fang Jinghong in surprise.
She still remembers that incident vividly.
When they returned to the countryside, Fang Jinghong did send a few maids and guards to accompany them because he was worried about the two generations of grandparents and grandchildren.
But halfway, they encountered bandits.
Because of these bandits, all the maids and guards died there.
Originally, the two of them, the grandfather and grandson, were not immune either, but later a group of people in black came.
The man in black didn't know whether he was reluctant or not, so he captured all the bandits in one fell swoop.
Fang Yisi was still young at that time. In order to protect her life, when she first discovered the bandits, she asked Fang Yisi to run in the opposite direction.
The child was terrified at the time and refused to do it.
Later, she lied to her, saying that her legs were short and her grandmother didn't want her to become a burden to her, so she was willing to go first...
She had always believed that God had mercy on them and let them escape the disaster.
