I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?
Chapter 163 Dowry is also donated
"Sever ties, move my mother's ancestral tablet out, and return her dowry." Xie Yunxiao said word by word.
Xie Hou gritted his teeth and stared at Xie Yunxiao fiercely without saying a word.
Prince Anyang, who was standing by, coughed lightly and stood up. "Since the Marquis is unwilling, then this prince..."
"Okay." Marquis Xie had to agree before King Anyang could say anything.
Xie Yunxiao took out a list from his arms, "Your Highness, this is the list of dowry my uncle gave me when my mother married into the Marquis' Mansion."
Lord Xie was completely dumbfounded. A dowry list? There was actually a dowry list.
It was obvious that the list was quite old. The paper was yellowed, but it was well preserved.
Prince Anyang took the list in confusion, "This..."
"I have donated my mother's dowry. Please accept it on behalf of Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, Prince Anyang's eyes lit up. He was familiar with this job.
The news of Jiang Yuan donating his dowry caused a sensation in the capital.
There were various versions of the story about Prince Anyang bringing a group of people to the Jiang Mansion to ask for silver. However, among the various versions, one piece of news was consistent, that is, Prince Anyang was laughing so hard and his face was flushed all the way.
Prince Anyang took the dowry list, stroked his beard, and walked in front of Marquis Xie, "Oh, Madam Su's dowry is really quite a lot.
It is similar to the dowry list of Madam Yun. The Su family is indeed a big family. It is different to have a concubine, right? Thank you, Lord Marquis."
Xie Hou's face turned pale and he couldn't utter a word.
Xie Yunxiao bowed to the elders of the Xie family and said, "Dear elders, Yunxiao would like to thank you again for coming to bear witness today.
From now on, I, Xie Yunxiao, will no longer have anything to do with the Xie family.
But you are still Yun Xiao's elders. If there is any trouble at home in the future, Yun Xiao will repay you for your kindness today."
After saying that, Xie Yunxiao led his men straight to the Xie Mansion's ancestral hall, tore off her mother's page in the family tree, held her mother's spirit tablet, and walked out of the mansion with her back straight.
People on the street saw General Xie, who was well-known in the capital, holding his mother's spirit tablet and walking all the way to his own mansion.
Xie Yunxiao has a house, which was left to him by his uncle when he left the capital. This house is bigger than the marquis's mansion, after all, the Su family is richer.
Over the years, he seldom came back to live here, always feeling that such a big house was too empty for one person to live in.
Even when he came back to live, he still lived in his own old yard and never lived in his uncle and aunt's yard.
But there is always someone cleaning the house, so it is very clean.
Before coming over, Xie Yunxiao had already greeted everyone. At this time, the servants in the mansion had already lined up and were waiting, watching Xie Yunxiao all the way into the ancestral hall.
In such a huge ancestral hall, there is only one memorial tablet, which is for Mrs. Su.
"Mother, your son has taken the initiative to take you back to the Su family. From now on, you are no longer a wife of the Xie family, but only a daughter of the Su family.
For so many years, my son has been extremely stupid and greedy for blood ties, but he has been enduring it until now. It is my son who is cowardly and deserves to be beaten. Please scold me in my dream.
The son will place a new one in the spiritual seat and change this one. The two words "Xie" are not worthy to appear together with the mother. "
After saying that, Xie Yunxiao kowtowed heavily.
Xie Yunxiao asked the emperor if he could change his surname to Su, but the emperor rejected it.
What the emperor meant was that it would be better not to do things too drastically as it would not be good for his future.
There are always some idle censors in the court. When they have nothing to do, they start looking for trouble.
After a few years, when they forget about it, they will bring it up again and it will cause trouble.
Xie Yunxiao also agreed.
Prince Anyang went to the palace and told the emperor about the matter. Seeing that the emperor did not look surprised, he frowned slightly and said, "Your Majesty, you don't know about this, do you?"
The emperor put down his pen and waved his hand for Prince Anyang to sit down. "Yun Xiao told me in advance, and I tried to persuade him, but failed.
This is also a good thing, as it prevents Marquis Xie from making a fuss about his marriage.
Besides, you can get a generous dowry."
The emperor smiled cunningly. It must be said that he was tempted by the dowry and did not want to agree at first.
Prince Anyang also laughed, took out the dowry list, and looked at it one by one, "Oh, it's another generous sum of money."
"Brother, why do you think Xie Yunxiao is suddenly like this? Why is he so determined to draw a line between himself and Marquis Xie?"
Prince Anyang seemed to be thinking about something.
The emperor continued to speculate, "Is it because of the marriage? That's not right. He has known about it for several days, but I haven't seen him react so strongly."
Prince Anyang smiled with a hint of understanding, "Your Majesty, I guess it's because of Jiang Yuan."
"Jiang Yuan?"
The emperor thought for a moment, "You mean, Xie Yunxiao likes Jiang Yuan?"
King Anyang nodded.
The emperor waved his hand, "Go check if this matter has anything to do with Jiang Yuan."
The young eunuch beside him agreed and went out quickly.
Jiang Yuan only heard about this incident when she returned home. Qu Ying was blocking the door and reported to her what Xie Yunxiao had done.
Jiang Yuan was also stunned after hearing this, "Why did Fourth Brother suddenly become so tough? I think he's almost become a Ninja Turtle."
"What turtle?" Qu Ying asked back.
"Well, it's just a kind of turtle that can swallow its anger."
"I told you not to hit me."
Looking at Qu Ying's expression, Jiang Yuan had a bad feeling. He slowly stood up and approached her. "So, this matter is related to me, or was it you who leaked it, which led to the quarrel between Fourth Brother and the Marquis?"
Qu Ying stepped back and nodded.
Jiang Yuan guessed it, "Did you tell Xie Yunxiao that Lord Xie was looking for me?"
Qu Ying waved her hands quickly, "No, no, I didn't mean it, I told Brother Xue and he heard it.
His face darkened at that moment, and he got on the emperor's carriage directly. After returning to the capital, he went straight to the Marquis's Mansion. "
Jiang Yuan didn't blame her. If this incident could make Xie Yunxiao determined to leave that family, it would not be a bad thing.
Although the Marquis's Mansion could not trip him up or cause any substantial harm to him, the neglect, contempt, and cold words from his family would consume a person from within until he died.
"Ah Yuan, the news is spreading like wildfire outside right now. There are all kinds of rumors, and the number of people who agree and disagree is about 50-50. It has a great impact on Xie Yunxiao's image."
Jiang Yuan sat at the table, thinking, "You say he is unfilial?"
Qu Ying nodded.
"How does Xie Yunxiao plan to deal with the rumors?"
"How do I know this?"
Jiang Yuan held up his chin and said, "Wait a few days and see if he makes any moves." Jiang Yuan wanted to see whether he left the Marquis' Mansion out of anger or because he really wanted to let it go.
His attitude towards rumors can just be used to test whether he has really made up his mind.
