Chapter 477

Master Jiu also understood that Xiao Mingzhu would not target the target without aim, but his eldest son had already been summoned away by people from Dali Temple. The emergency situation did not allow him to think too much, and he shouted angrily: "Sister Qi, what are you talking about? The emperor rules the world with benevolence and filial piety, how can it be so?" Will we tolerate people who betray the clan!"

If the emperor really wanted to favor the general's mansion, he wouldn't have said nothing when they tried to give Wynn a step-heir over and over again.

(The Emperor sneered: That's because I know that Xiao Huai'en is still alive! If Xiao Huaien is really dead, we really can't let the hero die without an heir, but what kind of heir we will adopt is not a matter of a word from me. How can I allow you to bully orphans and widows? mother!)

The old patriarch let out a long sigh, and persuaded: "Seventh sister, the general's mansion is finally surnamed Xiao, and it cannot be separated from the Xiao family. One is prosperous and the other is damaged."

"Clan leader, you know it's a loss, do you really want to accompany him?" Xiao Huaidan came in from outside the hall, saluted the old patriarch, and then said to Xiao Mingzhu: "Sister Ming, you go back and rest, I will handle the matter here. "

Xiao Mingzhu glanced at him and showed a sweet smile: "Uncle Dantang, if you have something to say, just say it. I will just listen and won't interrupt." After that, she covered her mouth with both hands and made a final statement. Silent gesture.

Xiao Huaidan knew that she meant what she said, so he sighed softly: "It doesn't matter, they are not afraid of being embarrassed if they do it, so why should I save face for them? You have to know sooner or later anyway." Things in the General's Mansion can still be kept hidden. Pass her?
Ninth Old Master said angrily, "Huai Dan, what do you mean?"

Xiao Huaidan said indifferently: "Break the tail to survive, abandon the pawns to protect the handsome, I think all the elders understand."

The old patriarch heard that there was something in his words, stopped the old man Jiu, frowned and asked, "Where did you say that?"

Xiao Huaidan said frankly: "Right now, the clan can only choose between the Hou's Mansion and the General's Mansion. Either we will suffer together with the Hou's Mansion, or we will prosper with the General's Mansion."

The people in the room were cursing in their hearts!
Is there a choice?

Who doesn't want to be proud, and lose as much as you want!
But if you want to be prosperous, you have a way to be prosperous, and if you don't want to lose, you have to have a way to stop the loss.

The ninth old man smashed a teacup over.Xiao Huaidan flashed over easily: "Uncle Jiu, this white porcelain tea cup is not cheap. If you smash one like this, you will lose 100 taels." The old man Jiu's hand that had already touched the plate trembled and he did not dare to smash it again.

The old patriarch only felt a headache: "Huai Dan, how can such a thing be joked."

Xiao Huaidan said solemnly: "Whether the Marquis Mansion has loaned money, the old Madam Hou and the Marquis know it well, and Uncle Jiu also knows it. Is it worth dragging the General Mansion into the mud for the sake of the title of the last generation?"

"What did you say!" The old patriarch jumped up, rushed to Xiao Huaidan with a vigor that didn't match his age, and almost picked up his lapel: "What is the title of the last generation?"

Wiping the spittle sprayed on his face, Xiao Huaidan took a step back and said: "The title of Marquis of Guangyang is only hereditary for three generations. If the patriarch doesn't believe it, you can go back to the ancestral hall and ask the imperial decree to take a closer look."

Without saying a word, the old patriarch turned around and rushed out. Inside the house, the remaining nine old masters shouted, but could not stop him.

The Ninth Old Master seemed to be ten years older: "Huai Dan, is what you said true?"

If this was really the case, he knew what the clan would do.If they dare to force Xiao Mingzhu to ask the second prince for help, or let Xiao Mingzhu use Xiao Huaien's connections to help them, the old patriarch will be the first to disobey!
Who will give up the new glory of tomorrow for the light of the setting sun.

The three tribesmen who had been silent before were also anxious: "What to do, what to do!"

Xiao Huaidan said calmly: "Right now, it's best not to get involved too deeply. This crime can only be carried by one family."

The old man Nine's eyes lit up, yes, it is the Hou's mansion who killed him outside, as long as the Hou's mansion bears all the charges, the crimes of those who help run errands will be lightened.

He had to send a letter to his eldest son quickly, so that he could have a clue in his mind. Don't recognize the ones that shouldn't be recognized, and be careful about the ones that should be recognized.

Seeing Mr. Jiu and his group leaving in a hurry, Xiao Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and said, "Uncle Dantang, we gentlemen don't tell secrets, so what are you planning on?"

Xiao Huaidan sighed softly: "I told you a long time ago, why don't you believe me?"

"Of course I don't believe it." Xiao Mingzhu chuckled: "A wife can remarry, and a son can have another child! No man in the world is a good thing."

Xiao Huaidan was so angry that his mouth was twisted, and his handsome face turned red from suppressing it. He pointed at Xiao Mingzhu: "Where did you hear this fallacy? Tell me and I will fix it."

"Xiao Huaien!" Xiao Mingzhu said.

"Okay," he rolled up his sleeves, "I'll beat him until he swallows his words."

Wait, isn't Xiao Huaien his cousin, sister Ming's father?
"Sister Ming, you..."

Xiao Mingzhu spread her hands: "My father didn't protect my mother back then, and he regretted it, so he taught me like this, let me put myself first, and don't place too much hope on others."

Xiao Huaidan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Fortunately, he didn't have a daughter.

If he had a daughter, he would definitely teach her this way.

With such a small episode, Xiao Huaidan felt a lot more relaxed. He explained seriously: "You don't like the mercenaryism of those old men in the clan, and you want to distance yourself from them. I don't like it either, but What I want is to get rid of the carrion and rejuvenate. If I can change the clan, I will do my best, if not, then I can only choose to stay away when I can establish my own family in the future."

Xiao Mingzhu could see from his eyes that what he said was from the bottom of his heart.

Xiao Huaidan seemed to have opened up the conversation: "You brought five children here, which gave me hope. If you teach them well, they can support the whole family."

This was also the reason why he really decided to shamelessly stay in the General's Mansion.

Xiao Mingzhu got up, went to Xiao Huaidan and stretched out his hand, Xiao Huaidan froze for a moment, then reacted, smiled and reached out to give her three high-fives: "Let's work hard together!"

……

Guangyanghou still evaded the matter in Dali Temple completely. He insisted that he did not know, saying that someone framed him, the witnesses were bribed, and the evidence was false.He even put on the stance of wanting to kill his relatives righteously, asking the minister of Dali Temple to severely punish the old Wangtou and the second housekeeper, and claimed that he was not strict in governing, so he would personally submit a book to plead guilty to the emperor.

After all, Lao Wangtou had gone back on his word and was suspected of being bribed, while the second steward and the two merchants were only telling one side of the story, and the Minister of Dali Temple had no more evidence to make Guangyang Hou confess.

For a while, the situation was deadlocked.

But he never expected that when the second housekeeper bit the uncle of the ninth room, the uncle admitted that he had once collected banknotes from the underground bank for the Hou's mansion.Afterwards, following the confession of Lord Jiufang, he traced to the underground bank, and all the evidence obtained from the silver village pointed to the Guangyanghou's mansion, and Guangyanghou couldn't allow him to deny it any more.
