After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 245 Fall and Redemption
"When the old marquis was alive, what he was most concerned about before his death was the future of the marquisate."
"Your father was deeply involved with the Ye family back then, but the old marquis was seriously ill at the time, and your two uncles were useless, so the burden of the Wu'an Marquisate had to be handed over to your father. But your grandfather, fearing that the Ye family's affairs would be exposed and implicate the entire family, wrote a letter to the late emperor to abolish the title of Crown Prince Xiao Yi and instead confer the title of Crown Prince Xiao Yu..."
"At that time, the late emperor thought of the old marquis's loyalty and knew that he was also doing it for the family's foundation. Even though this matter had no precedent in Dayin, he stamped the jade seal on the handwritten letter as an agreement."
"But later, your father cut off contact with Ye and never mentioned divorcing his wife again. At that time, the status of the Marquisate in Kyoto was no longer as high as before. Apart from your father, no one else in the Xiao family could support the Marquisate's huge business. The matter of deposing the crown prince was left unresolved, but he still left this handwritten letter to the family."
The purpose of the handwritten letter left by the old marquis before his death was probably to restrain Xiao Yi.
But he overestimated the fairness of the clan and underestimated Xiao Yi's ruthlessness, who even spared his own daughter.
After a long silence, finally, Chief Xiao compromised...
"I'll have someone deliver the handwritten letter to the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow."
"Tonight."
The clan leader's already sullen expression was slightly distorted, but Xiao Xuetang immediately said, "I will send someone to follow you to get it."
……
After coming out of the restaurant, the lights were already on and the whole Kyoto was brightly lit.
After receiving the handwritten letter, Xiao Xuetang immediately shared the joy of victory with Lin Xun!
"With this handwritten letter, Xiao Yu's title will be preserved, and I am even with him now."
It was obvious that she still cared about Xiao Yu, but she said one thing and thought another, insisting that she wanted to clear all ties with Xiao Yu.
Lin Xun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said along her fur: "You have done a good job in the Marquis' Mansion."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Xuetang suddenly looked at him with a strange look in his eyes.
Seeing this, Lin Xun couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Xuetang said in a complicated tone: "The tone you spoke just now really sounded like my brother."
Lin Xun didn't know how to respond...
This didn't sound like a compliment to him, after all...
The relationship between Xiao Xuetang and Xiao Yu is not that of brother and sister.
Xiao Xuetang didn't seem to notice that Lin Xun was having a hard time explaining himself. After a while, her expression changed a few times. She stared at Lin Xun until he realized what was going on and said, "From the inspection office to Tianxiang Tower today, you stared at me intently. It didn't seem like you were backing me up. Instead, it felt like you were worried about something."
The regent, who was always at ease, felt a little guilty under the clear gaze. He picked up a Buddhist scripture on the table and said, "Is there any?"
Xiao Xuetang has always been very perceptive. She naturally noticed Lin Xun's abnormal behavior today and said, "Also, when Xiao Yi and I had an argument in the prison today, how come Xiao Yu came so timely... Are you worried that I will kill Xiao Yi in the prison and bring you trouble?!"
Lin Xun knew that the little girl in front of him was very thoughtful and had extraordinary sensitivity, and her fingers moved slightly.
"and……"
Xiao Xuetang seemed to have thought of something. He stroked his chin and looked at Lin Xun thoughtfully and said, "And your nervousness today seems a bit like Xiao Yu's. When he first arrived in Kyoto, he always stared at me, as if I would do something bad to the Marquis' Mansion if he didn't pay attention."
Although later facts proved that Xiao Yu's worries were accurate, didn't Xiao Yu also become involved in her corruption later on?
Xiao Xuetang had only complained casually, but she had never expected that the regent, who usually had no expression on his face, would reveal a look of guilt at this rare moment...
Xiao Xuetang narrowed his eyes, as if he had thought of something, and said, "I remember now. On the day of the family recognition banquet, I came forward to lure out Foshu and asked you to go find Xiao Yu to get some information. Did Xiao Yu say anything to you at that time?"
This was the only possibility she could think of regarding Lin Xun's abnormality!
Lin Xun was surprised at the girl's sharp mind. After seeing a trace of surprise in her eyes, she did not hide it and said, "That day in the Marquis' Mansion, she told me in person that she had a nightmare..."
The Yong'an Marquis Mansion in the dream was dilapidated and the culprit behind all this was Xiao Xuetang!
"She killed her father and mother, bringing disaster to the family... In the dream, she naturally didn't have a good ending."
Xiao Yufeng spoke calmly, his bright and clear face seemed to be covered with a lingering shadow, but he looked at Lin Xun with a smile: "My Lord, you should know better than anyone how painful it would be to be haunted by such evil for the rest of your life."
At that moment, it seemed as if everything I saw became bizarre, with only scarlet color everywhere...
At the beginning, when Lin Xun was saying that Xiao Yu had a dream, Xiao Xuetang was so smart that she must have understood that Xiao Yu was using the dream as a substitute for rebirth.
Xiao Yu is not Xiao Yunni, he is always cautious by nature!
but……
After hearing Xiao Yu say that she was the one who ruined the entire Yong'an Marquis Mansion, Xiao Xuetang was so angry that she almost exploded.
It’s unfair, absolutely unfair!
Wasn’t it bad enough that she was cheated by the Yong’an Marquis’s Mansion in her previous life? How could this happen…
Just as the curse words were about to spill out of her lips, in a flash, Xiao Xuetang suddenly realized a problem that she had overlooked -
She, Xiao Yunni, Xiao Yu and Fu Shu, the four of them seemed to have completely different impressions of the trajectories of their fate in their previous lives!
"Let all destiny return to normal..."
At the family reunion party that day, before she fell into coma, Ye Nan, who was pretending to be the owner of the opera troupe, said this.
Her fate...
Is it related to southern Xinjiang?
The carriage swayed for a moment, and the lights inside flickered. Xiao Xuetang and Lin Xun each had their own thoughts and remained silent.
Just as the carriage passed through Zhuque Street and was about to arrive at the Marquis' Mansion, Xiao Xuetang realized that Lin Xun's expression was not right, and his silence lasted even longer than hers.
"Lin Xun, what's wrong with you?"
The girl's worried voice came from his ear. Lin Xun withdrew his gaze and was caught off guard by a pair of clear eyes.
Clean and pure is a kind of purity that has seen the sufferings of the world but still retains the purity of the original intention.
The glass lamps in the carriage flickered, and his phoenix eyes showed a deep luster like a cold spring, saying: "This king is not afraid of trouble..."
Xiao Xuetang was stunned for a moment before she realized that Lin Xun was answering her previous question.
Then Lin Xun said, "Xiao Yi deserves to die, but you shouldn't do it. I don't want your hands to be stained with the blood of your relatives..."
At this time, Lin Xun used the word "I" instead of "this king"...
Lin Xun thought, perhaps even if he had not had such an absurd dream, he would still be attracted to the woman in front of him.
Seeing her was like seeing myself trapped in the same situation back then, and helping her was like a belated redemption for the young Lin Xun...
