Chapter 951: Chapter 951-Using Four Tens to Pull a Thousand Pounds

The Xie family didn’t want to put all their eggs in one basket, and Xi Silang didn’t want to hang himself from one tree either.

Who knew what would happen to the Xie family? Would they incur the wrath of the public and fall from power?

If the Xie family has always been brilliant Xi Xie two families are also in-laws, and have Chu Ling Zi and Xie family relationship is not close. If they were unfortunately defeated, at least one of them would die. They could not let their entire family be destroyed.

However, he couldn’t tell Chu Lingzi these words.

His wife was a straightforward and heartless person. Perhaps if he made things clear and the Xie family was not in a hurry, she would turn against him.

He could only push a thousand pounds with four taels of silver and let it go.

The news of Madam Wang’s pregnancy finally broke out before the new year.

It had been more than three months since she revealed her pregnancy. If she didn’t say anything, others would find out. She might as well confess to Mother Xie.

The whole family was in an uproar. No one would have thought that the two people who were in deep trouble would actually secretly cross paths and have an old son.

Because she had been covering her pulse previously, Madam Wang had not asked Doctor Xue to take her pulse. Now that she knew about it, she diagnosed Doctor Xue immediately.

It was actually a young man!

Madam Wang cried tears of joy. How could she not be excited when a young man came to her? He spent a lot of money on going to the Taoist temple every year.

Third Master Xie knew that Madam Wang was pregnant with a son. That was because he did not even leave the residence except during court meetings.

He had been watching over Madam Wang’s daily necessities, afraid that he would mistreat his old age. Unexpectedly, he had become a filial husband. He spoke softly to Madam Wang and never raised his voice again.

Madam Wang was flattered and even suspected that this old man was insane.

However, she had no reason to refuse the preferential treatment that was delivered to her door. Instead, she began to tyrannize.

Madam Wang wasn’t spoiled when she was pregnant, but Third Master Xie was spoiled. Everything was treated according to Xiao Baoxin’s treatment. Madam Wang couldn’t be any worse than him. A daughter-in-law who was comparable to Xie Xian had a saying that she didn’t want the best. As long as she was better, she would follow his daughter-in-law closely. Mother Xie kept talking about her old age, causing her to secretly whisper to Xiao Bao,”

Why don’t you give birth to a child and call him Lao Laizi in a bad name?

It was as if he had never given birth to a son before. As the father, his child was already floating in his mother’s stomach.

Madam Wang’s pregnancy was a joyous occasion for the entire family. The only thing was that in the past, whenever Xiao Baoxin was pregnant, it would be handed over to Madam Wang. Now, Madam Wang had no choice but to give up her power. She could not make things difficult for Third Master Xie. He demanded that her wife get enough rest and that her old son get enough nutrition and care.

The Second household was the son of a concubine, so it was not necessary for them to help in private. Firstly, they had never taken charge of the household before, so they did not have the brains to do so. Secondly, there was no concubine’s son’s household head to handle matters when they welcomed and sent them off. They would be laughed at. Xiao Baoxin was four months pregnant and had no choice but to take up the responsibility of managing the family. Fortunately, her body had always been strong, and this time was not as easy as the last time she had twins. As the saying goes,’first life, second life’. She had given birth three times and given birth to four children. Who could be more familiar with it than her?

Xiao Baoxin had long passed the stage of self-pity. He ate and slept as he should and continued to practice his martial arts in high spirits.

Xiao Baoxin was a quiet person, but he had shocked the world with a single brilliant feat. The others were usually joking around. He had protected the Xie Manor twice, but the second time, many people saw him covered in blood and personally killed many guards. Unlike the scheming in the back of the manor, his hands were clearly stained with blood. Not to mention the servants of the Xie Manor who were still afraid and did not dare to challenge the authority of the mistress of the house, they were all obeying Xiao Baoxin’s orders openly and secretly. They did not dare to compromise at all.

Even Xie Qing was afraid of Xiao Baoxin.

This was no joke. A white knife went in and a red knife came out. He killed without blinking.

Although she was not convinced by Xie Xian, she was truly convinced that he had married Xiao Baoxin as his wife. With just a glance, her legs went soft. With this physical fitness and temperament, who would dare to not spoil him? No wonder Xie Xian

In the words of Wang Shier’s mother, if you can’t be convinced, you can’t be scolded. You’re more cowardly than anyone else when you’re at the throat of a knife.

Xie Qing retorted on the spot. You didn’t see her killing on the spot. You would be terrified if you saw her.

Wang Shier’s mother joked with Xiao Baoxin, and Xiao Baoxin almost laughed himself into premature labor. He really didn’t expect Xie Qing to be able to judge the situation so well. She still thought that he was arrogant and did not put anyone in his eyes.

As for Yang Fengming exposing Xie Qing’s background in front of the Xie Estate, it was as if it had vanished into thin air after that day. Not only did it not spread out in the Xie Estate, but not a single word of it had spread out.

Xie Xian had put in a lot of effort. Yang Fengming and the Prince of Huaiyang had been escorted to the execution ground to be beheaded. There wasn’t even a need to interrogate the case, and there wasn’t even a file left behind.

Yang Fengming had faked the imperial edict, and everything he said and did was slander and framing. Xie Xian turned around and gave a death order to the manor. If a word of it spread outside, it would be the word death.

Xie Xian already knew Xie Qing’s background. The concubines and servants that Xie Qing brought back after returning to the residence were all dead. It was very strange. It was impossible for him not to send people to investigate in detail.

Of course, this was only a rough idea. It was mostly a conclusion that Xie Xian had guessed.

As for Yang Fengming, he was much clearer. It was one of the aides who had served under Prince Yiyang that recognized Xie Qing.

That aide was not as important as Xie Qing, and Prince Yiyang did not bring him along when he left. He had gone to work in another prefecture after things had calmed down. That person was Yang Fengming’s cousin. Later, when he followed the main official to Jiankang City, he accidentally recognized Xie Qing and Yang Fengming obtained it. However, after more than a month, Jiang Xia Prince and Yang Fengming had originally wanted to hold it in their hands and use it as a trump card to bring down Xie Xian at a critical moment.

At the very least, he had to break Xie Xian’s arm and cripple Xie Qing.

However, before the time was ripe, Emperor Yong Ping was in a hurry to make a move, forcing King Jiang Xia to be willing to risk the world’s condemnation to kill the emperor.

Unexpectedly, it gave Xie Xian the space to manipulate and forcefully suppressed this matter.

Xie Xian and Xie Qing both treated this matter as if it didn’t exist and never spoke about it face to face.

However, Xie Qing wasn’t a rock, so how could she not know Xie Xian’s deep meaning? The inexplicable hostility she had towards Xie Xian over the years gradually faded. In fact, he had no choice but to be indifferent. He could already see that Xie Xian was no longer the proud and aloof young man from back then. In the few years that he was away from Jiankang, Xie Xian had already changed completely. He had even more big plans in his heart and had left him far behind.

Moreover, the series of malicious intentions and precautions against Xie Qing back then were all the intentions of Mother Xie and the other elders. Xie Xian had never judged him with the heart of a villain.

Everything was actually because Xie Qing was young and impetuous, and she couldn’t swallow her anger.

Right now, Xie Xian could do anything he wanted, and the Xie Clan didn’t care about having another outstanding person.
