The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

Xue Mingyue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this statement.

After a moment, he turned his head back thoughtfully.

She had not touched Butler Zhang much since her rebirth. To be fair, he was indeed loyal to Dingyuan Hou Mansion. After Xie Lang was imprisoned, he stayed behind and ran around with her for Xie Lang.

But he can't be considered very loyal, because interests are more important in his eyes.

So in her last life, she stayed in the courtyard, but Bai Zhenzhen dared to deduct her expenses at will, just because she won over Butler Zhang early. After all, Bai Zhenzhen lived in this mansion for a much longer time.

When Xue Mingyue mentioned Butler Zhang, the first thing that came to mind was Liu Yun.

In his previous life, Liu Yun had to marry his son under pressure from Butler Zhang because of her. In this life, she took advantage of the walnut powder incident to make trouble, and she had already beaten Butler Zhang severely, and then she stopped caring about his affairs.

As long as he knows the time and doesn't provoke her again, it is planned that she will deal with him after making peace and before leaving.

But after Xie Lang quietly took care of the Zhao family doctors, Xue Mingyue guessed that Butler Zhang would not escape the disaster.

And now that Xie Lang himself was reborn, it was only natural that he would remove the hidden danger of Butler Zhang. Who would keep a servant who puts interests above loyalty beside him?

Xue Mingyue lowered her eyelids, hiding the emotion in her eyes.

She picked up the soup bowl at hand and took a small sip. The chicken soup was so simmering that it was delicious. She couldn't help but take two more sips. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly. With this news, it really increased her appetite.

"That's all, just do whatever you want."

After a long time, Princess Cen said: "Grandma is getting older. Seeing that you are young, the old people below also have other thoughts. Since you are capable, there is no need to worry about their age."

The purpose of using gentle methods is to prevent them from having other thoughts.

Now that they had already made other moves, he should move vigorously and resolutely to suppress them. He had done a good job before. Princess Cen simply remembered that when she was at Zhuangzi, she was still angry with him for taking action without permission.

"Grandma said her grandson would take care of it."

Xie Lang responded lightly.

After finishing speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Xue Mingyue's eyes bent from the corner of his eye, a satisfied smile on his lips, and a slight movement of his eyebrows.

He remembered what Liu Xing had said to him later in his previous life.

One of them seems to be Liu Yun's fate. She can be regarded as dying to protect her master, but she was tortured by Zhang Guanjia and his son. Not only her, but also the three masters and servants suffered all kinds of abuse and deductions in the house.

Thinking of this, Xie Lang's expression suddenly darkened.

He also thought of those guys who talked about their feelings in front of him, all of whom had the same virtue as Butler Zhang.

At the dinner table, the two of them had different thoughts.

Only Xue Mingyue was enjoying her meal. If the location hadn't allowed her to eat, she even wanted to hum while eating. Her chopsticks didn't stop the whole time, and her mood completely disappeared from the dullness she felt before entering the door.

At this moment, she figured out the beauty of Xie Lang's rebirth.

He had been raised to be arrogant and domineering since he was a child. Even if she didn't get involved, Xie Lang would have to deal with people like Butler Zhang sooner or later, because they were all his father's confidants, not his.

If Xie Lang wants to truly take charge of the Dingyuan Army, he must use his own confidants to remove these people from their positions.

Obviously, these people's positions are not so easy to change.

Xue Mingyue vaguely remembered that when he was in exile in his previous life, he was still thinking about how to organize the troops in his hands after Suzhou. He was demoted to this point and semi-disabled, and his heart was floating.

After being imprisoned, Xie Lang's temperament had changed.

She had no doubt that he would be able to take the Dingyuan Army back into his own hands. In this life, he had taken over the prophet again, and he would definitely be able to deal with these old people who were left over from the previous generation.

Xue Mingyue was full and reluctantly filled up another bowl of soup.

Xie Lang didn't use his chopsticks during the meal, but he saw that the soup tasted delicious to her, so he filled a bowl with it and started drinking. When she stopped using her chopsticks, he stood up and said goodbye to his grandmother.

Princess Cen waved her hand.

Before Xue Mingyue could react, Xie Lang grabbed her wrist and walked directly outside.

She was stunned for a moment: "Why are you pulling me?"

Xie Lang said casually: "It's nothing, I'm just worried that you are afraid of the dark as it gets late, so I took you back to the house."

"..."

Even if you are looking for an excuse, you have to find a reasonable one.

Xue Mingyue was quite speechless in her heart. She wanted to stab him back, but as the words came to his lips, he suddenly remembered what happened in the prison in the afternoon. He learned that the death of his parents was not that simple. I'm afraid he was not as calm as he showed.

Forget it, she is such a considerate person, so she won't stab him at this time.

Xue Mingyue curled her lips and said, "I'm not afraid of the dark. I'm afraid the Marquis might remember someone else."

"Where did the others come from?"

Xie Lang lowered his head and looked at her, and said in a calm tone: "Except for you, there is no one else around me. I will only keep your preferences and habits in my heart. The only person who can join hands with me for the rest of my life is you."

After he finished speaking, he paused and then continued: "I just said you were afraid of the dark, which was just an excuse I made at random."

When Xue Mingyue met his deep and sincere black eyes, her heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously turned her head to avoid his gaze and said calmly: "Oh, then why are you making excuses?"

"Of course there are some words that are not convenient for grandma to hear."

Xie Lang said it frankly and didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all.

Xue Mingyue: "..."

You haven't left Wangxiyuan yet, and these words will soon reach the ears of Princess Cen.

Sure enough, those who have power are confident.

Xue Mingyue clicked her tongue lightly.

"I interrogated Xue Xujun in the afternoon, but he was very tough and didn't reveal anything." Seeing that she didn't take it seriously, Xie Lang pinched her face in a funny way and continued walking forward, "So I asked Mr. Lin again Tried it again."

Xue Mingyue raised her eyebrows: "Huh?"

"Lin's words can prove it. Two years before your mother's death, Xue Xujun had been visiting Lin's house frequently."

"You may not know that Taifu Lin is his tutor. The examiner who presided over his examination was Taifu Lin. Therefore, even if he went in and out of Lin's house many times, it did not arouse suspicion from others." Xie Lang's voice was neither fast nor slow.

After hearing this, Xue Mingyue still didn't understand what he meant by saying this to her.

There were only some vague guesses in my mind, but it was not clear.

"It was from Mrs. Lin's mouth that Ms. Lin learned that she was going to marry Xue Xujun. At that time, your mother was already on the sickbed. Ms. Lin was not happy when she knew that she would be a stepmother. Even though Xue Xujun was very good in talent, appearance and knowledge. .”

Xie Lang stopped here and looked down into her eyes.

"Ms. Lin said that she gradually changed her mind after coming into contact with Xue Xujun, and after that, Xue Xujun promised her that he would welcome her into the house as soon as possible."
