Madam Xie was born into the Su family, a family of generals. Her father and brother died fighting in southern Xinjiang.

That was the battle in which Dayin suffered the most tragic casualties, and it was called the Battle of Nanling!

Later, when Xie Xuehe traveled to Southern Xinjiang, he almost lost his life, so the entire Xie family hated Southern Xinjiang. This time, the court restored the Xie family, and Old Master Xie stayed in Dongshan due to physical inconvenience. There was another reason, probably because he was unhappy when he heard that the court and Southern Xinjiang were negotiating peace...

Su didn't expect that she would scare Zhuzhu in her excitement, and felt a little regretful.

Fortunately, Xiao Xuetang learned how to coax children without any instruction.

Although Xiao Xuetang usually has little contact with children, she has a soft temperament that makes her especially popular with children and small animals. Zhuzhu's tense body gradually relaxed.

But where Xiao Xuetang couldn't see, her clear eyes were filled with worries that didn't suit her age...

Seeing that the eldest lady was still angry, Xiao Xuetang said to Su: "Don't worry, aunt, Ye Jin can't be the third prince's consort. I kept her at that time just to make things difficult for Lin Shaoshu."

When mentioning Lin Shaoshu, Xiao Xuetang's tone was unusually cold, and Madam Xie was a little surprised.

When she heard that Xiao Xuetang and Lin Shaoshu had broken off their engagement, she was a little worried that Xiao Xuetang would be sad. After all, the two of them had a good relationship since childhood.

Su, on the other hand, looked at Xiao Xuetang with relief.

This is the child she raised with her own hands. She knows in her heart that although this child looks delicate, he is actually tough at heart. He dares to love and hate, and is definitely not someone who only indulges in the past...

This is the difference between Xiao Xuetang, her mother, and... Concubine Xie.

Su thought about her two sisters-in-law, the famous sisters of the Xie family, who both died because of the word "love", and she couldn't help feeling sad.

Fortunately, Xiao Xuetang is different from them!

The butler stood there for a long time waiting for a reply.

Su calmed down and said, "Go tell those people from the Xiao family that Xuetang's luggage has been moved to the Xie family and has nothing to do with their mansion. Tell them to get out of here and stop dirtying our Xie family's land!"

Before he finished speaking, a high and harsh voice came from the courtyard: "The Su family is so arrogant. The Marquis' Mansion and the Xie family are related by marriage. Now that the Xiao family is declining and the Xie family is rising, are you just going to turn your back on them like this?"

The leader was none other than Madam Xiao San, who was supposed to be in the manor!

The look in the Third Madam's eyes when she saw Xiao Xuetang was like poison gushing out...

It was all because of those two bitches Xiao Xuetang and Xie that she and Ruoruo were locked up in the manor, and they have been living a life worse than death for the past few months!

Now that Mrs. Xie is dead, it is time for the third branch of their family to be in charge of the entire Marquisate. After all... she now has a powerful backer.

Behind the Third Madam was Aunt Fangyue who was beside the Queen Mother...

Fang Yue whispered something in the Third Madam's ear, only to hear the Third Madam loudly accusing her, "Xiao Xuetang, your grandmother is now ill in bed. As a junior, why don't you serve her in the Marquis's mansion? You dare to have fun outside. Do you know the rules?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Xuetang hadn't opened her mouth yet, when the First Madam Su suddenly stood up and slapped the Third Madam, who was acting like a bully.

"Our Tangtang is a beautiful girl, and you dare to treat her as a slave to serve that old hag from the Xiao family? Are all the people in your Yong'an Marquis Mansion dead?"

Su is a descendant of a military family and has always had a bad temper.

Moreover, after returning to Kyoto, she also heard from Ren Dong that in the past five years, the old lady of the Marquis's Mansion had tortured Xiao Xuetang a lot in the name of attending to her illness. If it weren't for the fact that the old lady Xiao was now hanging on the bed with only one breath left, the Su family would have come to the door long ago.

Unexpectedly, Su didn't come to her house, but those ignorant people in the Marquis' Mansion took the initiative to provoke her. Su was not the kind of person who would swallow her anger, so she slapped the Third Madam twice and made her lose her mind.

Su protected Xiao Xuetang behind her and sneered at the third wife, "Since my sister-in-law has divorced the Marquis' Mansion, then Xuetang is our Xie family's daughter and has nothing to do with their Marquis' Mansion. If anyone from your Marquis' Mansion dares to step into our Xie family again in the future, I will have you kicked out."

Although Su used to have a hot temper, she still pretended to be a dignified lady of aristocratic family in Kyoto and restrained herself a little. But with the years when Xie Yuhong was exiled, Su's temper was no longer restrained. She developed the habit of never talking when she could use her hands, which directly stunned the third wife...

In her memory, the two ladies of the Xie family were very kind, well-educated and well-mannered. How could they suddenly become so... cruel?

At this time, Xiao Xuetang was protected by her two aunts, and a long-lost warmth emerged in her heart...

It feels so good to be protected like this!

At this time, Fang Yue did not expect that the Third Madam was so useless. She was suppressed by Madam Xie before she even started a round. She had to speak up in person: "Madam Xie, what are you doing? The Third Madam is now the Queen Mother's guest of honor. You are scolding her so casually. Isn't that giving the Queen Mother face?"

"Although the Xie family was pardoned by His Majesty and sent back to the capital, Mr. Xie has not yet been reinstated, and Madam Xie has acted so ostentatiously. If His Majesty knew about this, I wonder if the Xie family would return to Dongshan again..."

Su knew that Fangyue was the empress dowager's right-hand man, and her words also represented the empress dowager's opinion.

So, it seems that it was Fang Yue who was threatening the Xie family, but it was actually the Queen Mother!

Thinking of the Queen Mother, Su's face looked a little ugly at this moment.

She knew the Queen Mother's methods too well. She was definitely not as peaceful as she seemed on the surface. Just like what happened back then...

Fang Yue looked at the two ladies of the Xie family who were originally arrogant, and wilted instantly after hearing the Queen Mother's name, and sneered in her heart.

Even at the height of the Xie family's prosperity, they did not dare to challenge the Empress Dowager, let alone the Xie family now without Grand Tutor Xie.

Fang Yue looked at the two ladies of the Xie family, a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes, and said: "I'm sure Madam Xie knows the interests involved, so Miss Xiao should go back to the Marquis' Mansion. It just so happens that the Queen Mother also wants to see you..."

"No!"

Su immediately became alert, looked at Fangyue, and said, "Now that Xuetang has broken off the engagement with Shaoshu, what does the Queen Mother want to do with her?"

Fang Yue looked at the nosy Su, her eyelids drooped, like a snake spitting out its tongue, and threatened coldly: "Madam Xie, isn't what I just said clear enough? This is a matter between the Queen Mother and Miss Xiao, so don't ask too much. You have to consider Mr. Xie's future. Whether he can be reinstated is a matter of a word from the Queen Mother..."

Before Su could speak, a cold and low voice came from the gate of the courtyard: "I don't know when the Queen Mother will be able to extend her hand to the previous dynasty."

Fangyue shuddered when she heard this familiar voice.

At some point, Lin Xun appeared at the gate of the yard, looking at them with cold eyes...

It's like looking at a group of dead people!
