After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness

"Xiao Xuetang, stop!"

When they were about to leave the prison, Ye Jin suddenly called out Xiao Xuetang's name.

She clutched the railings of the prison tightly with both hands, veins bulging on the back of her hands. She stared at Xiao Xuetang with bloodshot eyes, as if she was going to eat her the next moment.

Xiao Yu frowned slightly and took a step forward, trying to block Ye Jin's gaze for Xiao Xuetang.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Xuetang said, "Brother, you and uncle wait for me outside. I want to talk to Ye Jin."

Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Xuetang with some concern, fearing that she would be bullied by Ye Jin, but Xie Leifeng said directly: "Don't worry, Xuetang is not a child anymore."

He was a tough guy who could control both the spies and Xiao Yi. Xie Leifeng felt that he had underestimated Xiao Xuetang before, but he didn't expect that his nephew was even more concerned and confused than him.

With Xie Leiying's help, Xiao Yu had no choice but to get on the carriage first.

After the two of them left, Xiao Xuetang only heard Ye Jin's sinister voice: "Xiao Xuetang, Xiao Yu really protects you. You have ruined his position as the crown prince, but he doesn't hate you. Instead, he sued Xiao Yi on your behalf..."

"According to Xiao Yu's ability, even if the Yong'an Marquisate stripped him of his title, he could still make a comeback without the support of the Marquisate. This time, he actually cut off his official career for you..."

Yes, Ye Jin was right. After this incident, it would be a serious crime of disobedience for a son to sue his father.

Even though Lin Shaojin, Qi Yusheng and others in the court pleaded for him, and he had the support of Lin Xun, Xiao Yu's career was completely ruined in Dayin, a place with strict etiquette.

What's more serious is that the talented Xiao Yu will forever be charged with the crime of disobedience and will never be able to gain a foothold among Confucian scholars and celebrities!

Xiao Xuetang didn't expect this to happen -

Xiao Xuetang had a clear distinction between love and hate, but he was not one to implicate innocent people. Therefore, before planning the engagement banquet, Xiao Xuetang's targets were only Xiao Yi, Ye Jin, and Madam Nan. He made a deal with Lin Xun in order to minimize the losses and avoid implicating more innocent people.

If Xiao Yi was convicted, Xie would be the first to bear the brunt of the consequences, so Xiao Xuetang had already prepared a divorce agreement for Xie that was more than ten years old but still valid after being stamped. In addition, there was Xiao Yu...

Xiao Yu would certainly not be able to keep his position as the crown prince after inheriting the title, but Xiao Xuetang knew clearly that with Xiao Yu's abilities, he would be able to pass the imperial examinations even if he did not inherit the title, and it would be only a matter of time before he would be able to revive the new Yong'an Marquisate.

But Xiao Xuetang never expected that after all her calculations, she didn't expect that the nerd Xiao Yu would testify on her behalf.

Originally, according to the plan, after Xiao Xuetang sued Xiao Yi, he had left himself a way out in Jiangnan or Dongshan, leaving Kyoto and hiding his identity from then on...

Now, what Xiao Yu did has made things more and more complicated!

Seeing Xiao Xuetang frowning, Ye Jin felt very happy and said, "Xiao Xuetang, don't you feel guilty?"

Perhaps because he hadn't spoken for a long time, Ye Jin's usually clear voice became hoarse, and his face was no longer as delicate as before, as if he had aged ten years overnight...

Xiao Xuetang looked at Ye Jin deeply, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "He is my brother, and it is natural for him to do anything for me... just like Xiao Yi did for you! So, why should I feel guilty?"

Ye Jin stared at Xiao Xuetang's snow-white face, which was as dazzling as a piece of jade in such a dark and dirty place.

She could no longer see the inferiority and anger on Xiao Xuetang's face that she had seen when they first met in Kyoto. Instead, there was a sense of beauty that came from being cared for and healed.

How could this be?

Obviously Xiao Xuetang had nothing at the beginning, and was inferior to her in everything, so she should have gotten worse and worse...

But why is it that she is now in prison while Xiao Xuetang was able to crawl out of the quagmire!

Ye Jin was so angry that his teeth were itching, and he wished he could drag Xiao Xuetang into hell with him.

But before Ye Jin made his move, Xiao Xuetang had already taken a step back swiftly, avoiding Ye Jin's fingers that were like dead branches.

I saw that Ye Jin's nails were very sharp. If she really scratched me, the consequences would be disastrous.

Xiao Xuetang was still frightened, but pretended to be relaxed and jokingly said, "Ye Jin, it's only been two days since you were born, why is your skin as rough as tree bark? Could it be that Yan Xinji's powder is not good enough?"

Xiao Xuetang suddenly mentioned Yan Xinji, and Ye Jin hadn't reacted yet...

Xiao Xuetang smiled and said, "The 20,000 taels of silver you gave to Yan Xinji were used to launch a new facial cream. As for the silver, I also compensated the merchants and people who were implicated by your Baicaotang and lost their homes. It can be regarded as a good deed for you."

Only then did Ye Jin react and said in hatred, "It's you, Xiao Xuetang. It turns out you were the one who set this up!"

Yan Xinji remembered that it was when Ye Jin first returned to Kyoto. She was ambitious to start a career, but she never expected that Xiao Xuetang had set a trap for her at that time, leaving her with nothing.

Seeing Ye Jin's facial features twisted with anger, Xiao Xuetang was in a good mood...

Originally, Xiao Xuetang didn't want to bother with Ye Jin. Who would have thought that Ye Jin would actually come to her doorstep to be bullied? So don't blame her.

"But then again..."

Xiao Xuetang stared at Ye Jin and suddenly changed the subject: "You were imprisoned in the Sky Prison, how could you know so much about what was happening outside, and who...tipped you off?"

Xiao Xuetang suddenly moved closer to Ye Jin and keenly smelled a faint strange fragrance on Ye Jin. This fragrance... seemed familiar!

Meeting Xiao Xuetang's sharp gaze, Ye Jin's heart trembled, and this time it was her turn to take a step back involuntarily.

After retreating, Ye Jin felt that his performance was not up to par. He paused, put on an unfathomable look, and sneered, "Xiao Xuetang, do you really think that with Lin Xun as your backer, you can cover the sky with one hand?"

"You forgot that I am now the Third Prince's fiancée, and I have had physical contact with him. Maybe I am already pregnant with her child..."

At this point, Ye Jin touched his still flat belly, a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said in a hoarse voice: "The royal family values ​​bloodline, do you think he will just sit back and ignore me?"

Xiao Xuetang looked at Ye Jin's mysterious and strange expression, frowning slightly, and the next moment, he heard footsteps coming from the entrance of the prison...

Looking over, I saw that the person leading the group was Aunt Fangyue who was beside the empress dowager, and behind her was the imperial physician who was taking her pulse.

Aunt Fangyue was the head of Jiashou Palace. She had a serious personality. When she saw Xiao Xuetang, she just drooped her eyelids and asked quietly, "Why is Miss Xiao here?"

Xiao Xuetang lied without changing her expression, "I was worried that Sister Jin's father might have caught a cold in the prison at night, so I came to give him some clothes. Why is Auntie here? Could it be the Empress Dowager's idea?"

Fang Yue's expression instantly became alert, and with her eyelids still half drooped, she said, "Miss Xiao, since you have delivered the things, please leave first. Don't ask any more questions. It has nothing to do with you."

At this time, Xie Leifeng was worried about Xiao Xuetang, so he returned to look for her. Xiao Xuetang turned around and left without saying anything after hearing this...

Before leaving, she saw the imperial physician behind Fang Yue taking Ye Jin's pulse!
