After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Brother Kang is a descendant of the Xie family, so he naturally needs to be included in the family tree. However, the family tree clearly states that he is a legitimate concubine. I guess this is the reason why Xie Zian has been putting off putting Brother Kang on the family tree.

After all, he was different from his concubine. He valued Brother Kang and was unwilling to wrong the child.

"Did you only hear us talking about creating a family tree for Brother Kang, but not mentioning that Liniang should be treated as an equal wife?" Xie Zian said with a sullen face.

Liu Yunxiang smiled lightly, "Do I agree?"

Xie Zian angrily yelled: "Why do I need your consent!"

"Then you guys try it!" Liu Yunxiang picked up the half-cup of tea left by Liniang in front of him, glanced at it, and threw it onto the dining table. It hit the plate and broke into several pieces immediately.

There was a crisp sound.

A wonderful banquet suddenly turned into a mess.

"Liu Yunxiang!" the old lady shouted angrily, "What on earth are you going to do?"

"I said I disagreed." Liu Yunxiang smiled.

"I have made the decision on this matter, you can't help but disagree!"

"Haha, your life has been so peaceful. Have you forgotten the feeling of the knife on your neck before?" Liu Yunxiang glanced at the people present and twitched the corner of his mouth coldly, "Or do you really think he is dead?"

"He is at the end of his rope now, so you should not rely on him." Although Xie Zian said this, his momentum has been reduced.

Who wants to mess with that lunatic, a villain who will kill your whole family if he doesn't like it?

The eldest lady coughed twice, and then said: "Third brothers and sisters, today is a family dinner to send brother Cheng to the examination room. Let's not talk about other things for now."

The old lady took a deep breath and said, "I won't mention it for now."

But the banquet has been ruined and there is no way to continue.

Liu Yunxiang was silent for a moment and said: "Brother Kang is the eldest son of the third master, and he was born when he was in trouble. We suffered a lot with him. I feel sorry for this child, but there is a difference between a direct descendant and a direct descendant. I This is not the most important thing to people. However, the family tree still needs to be published. According to the rules, we have to wait until the legitimate son is born to enter the family tree. The child in my belly is already more than five months old. This time, I will make it easier for Brother Kang to do it together. Let’s get the genealogy.”

"You haven't given birth yet, and you don't even know if it's a boy or a girl. How can you get it on the family tree? Besides, he's not... you know it in your heart!" Xie Zian shouted.

The old lady also frowned, "I have never had such a rule, but I know what you are thinking, Mrs. Liu. Isn't it just to give the child in your belly a decent identity? Even if we follow you, but you are so unruly, Other aristocratic families will not agree."

During the Great Rong Dynasty, eight aristocratic families were ennobled, and the eight families shared the same ancestral temple, and their genealogies were also enshrined together.

For decades, until today, the Eighth Aristocratic Family is still united in order to fight against those who come after them.

Back then, the Marquis of Jing'an led an army of [-] people to the north of the Great Wall, but all [-] soldiers died there. The entire responsibility was placed on the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion. For such a big crime, it would have been enough to punish the Nine Clan, but with the support of other aristocratic families, The Marquis of Jing'an Mansion was not deprived of its title, and they only waited for the younger generation to grow up before taking over the title.

This is the eighth family.

According to the ancestral rules, when a family has a male heir, the heads of the other seven families must open the box of the Tibetan genealogy together, worship the ancestors in the presence of the seven families, and then enter the genealogy.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Yunxiang values ​​​​this identity. As long as it is listed in the family tree, this child will be the legitimate son of the third wife of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion. He is upright and decent. No one will dare to doubt the relationship between this child and Yan Mu anymore. Once the genealogy is entered, the Jingan Marquis Mansion cannot modify it without permission, and the Eighth Family will protect these younger generations in order to have successors.

Xie Lincheng and Xie Linyu were the ones whose ancestors and fathers made big mistakes. One of them continued to be in the Imperial College and the other in the martial arts workshop. At least their studies were not affected.

This was the purpose of dragging her heavy body here today.

"What if they agree?" Liu Yunxiang asked the old lady.

The old lady frowned, "Absurd, how is it possible!"

"If they agree, the Hou Mansion will have nothing to say, right?"

The old lady sneered coldly, "If you really have this ability, what else can I say."

After Liu Yunxiang left, Xie Zian couldn't stand it any longer, "Mom, if she really has this ability, do we really want to tolerate that kind of evil? Even our ancestors can't agree!"

The old lady said amusedly: "Even though she has Dongchang and Yan Mu behind her, the Eighth Family cannot even shake the emperor. Do you think it is possible?"

Xie Zian thought the same thing, "What about Brother Kang?"

"I will divorce Yan Mu as soon as she falls. Then you can straighten Liniang up."

Xie Zian turned around and held Liniang's hand, "You heard what mother said, I won't wrong you."

Liniang looked touched, "If it weren't for Brother Kang, I wouldn't want to fight for this position. As long as the third master has me in his heart, I will be satisfied."

The second master, Xie Zixuan, had been sullen all the time. Hearing this, he couldn't stand anymore and stood up.

"For a grown man to think of ways to deal with a woman, this is considered his skill!"

After speaking, he strode away.

Back in the west courtyard, Liu Yunxiang pulled out a waist card from the bottom of the box.

"Zijin, please accompany me to the palace." Liu Yunxiang said.

Zi Jin had nothing to say and just nodded, but Jin Yan was anxious, "Girl, you have a fever. What nonsense are you talking about? You can enter the palace if you want?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Of course I have a way."

"But you are like this now..."

"I'm fine, just wait at home."

Taking advantage of the darkness, Liu Yunxiang got into the carriage from the back door and headed towards the palace gate.

The badge in her hand was the one she saved when the landslide occurred in Ziyun Temple. The Queen Mother gave her this badge, saying that if she needed anything from her in the future, she could use it to enter the house. palace.

After Liu Yunxiang left, Jin Yan really couldn't feel at ease. After thinking for a long time, he put on his gauze hat and went out.

When we came out of the Queen Mother's Luohan Palace, it was late at night and the moon was shining brightly.

In the bright night sky, there is a bright moon and no light from the stars, making it look a little lonely. The moonlight was like frost, spreading on the green tiles and red walls, and on this long and narrow corridor. A gust of wind passed by, bringing with it a slight chill.

Zijin was blocked from the palace gate, with only a small eunuch holding a lamp in front of her.

The Queen Mother's words still ring in her ears: Do you hate him so much that you want his children to take someone else's surname and deny him for the rest of his life?

She replied: I don’t hate him, but can my child bear the surname Yan?

The high and noble Queen Mother was silent, and she could not give her a guarantee.

After a long time, the Queen Mother sighed: "Xu, that's a good thing."

When Liu Yunxiang came back to his senses, he saw a man standing not far away. He was dressed in black clothes and looked majestic. In this early autumn season, his whole body was filled with chills.

The little eunuch was a smart person. He turned around and saluted Liu Yunxiang before going back.

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath and walked towards Yan Mu.

"Jinyan is looking for you?"

Yan Mu looked gloomy, "Do you want to tell me what you did when you went to the palace to see the Queen Mother?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled slightly and said, "Why ask questions when you already know it? If you want me to tell you personally, that's fine..."

"To shut up!"

Liu Yunxiang was still smiling. At this time, the wind blew by, and the maple leaves on the wall swirled and fell in front of her.

Liu Yunxiang caught it with one hand, and the maple leaves were already red.

Autumn is here, can winter be far behind?

And she doesn't have many days left.

"But haven't you been banned from the emperor's palace? Can you still enter and exit the palace freely?"

Moreover, he was banned because he broke into the palace at night.

He is such a stubborn person, and if the emperor doesn't kill him, he will not be able to live up to his reputation as a murderer.

Yan Mu snorted coldly, "I don't need you to worry about my affairs."

"That's well said. You don't need to worry about my affairs." Liu Yunxiang replied.
