After I traveled through the book, I was spoiled by five little villains

Xie Shu was startled for a moment, then angrily said, "Unfilial son!"

How dare you doubt your father?

Xie Ruijin savored the thought in her mind, came to her senses, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Ever since he saw the badge, he has been worried.

What should he do if it was his father who wanted to kill the eldest princess?

Fortunately not.

Glancing at him, Xie Shu said, "Have you never thought carefully about what good it would do me if the eldest princess died?"

Xie Ruijin didn't dare to reply.

Of course he did.

For the Xie family, the current situation is the most stable.

He knew that his father had realized his ambitions and could govern the country according to his political aspirations, and he had never thought of sitting in the supreme position of the world.

The Xie family and the royal family are one and the same.

No matter from which angle you look at it, assassinating the eldest princess will not benefit the Xie family at all.

His sister is still serving as the queen in the palace!

But Xie Rujin knew that he had never truly understood his father.

What if it was out of some interest that he couldn't understand?

He had no choice but to secretly hide the badge and go back to ask his father.

Instead of asking indirectly, it is better to ask directly. After all, he is a transparent person in front of his father, and his father can see through what he is thinking at a glance.

Xie Shu frowned: "Tell me what happened in detail, don't leave out any details."

He couldn't help but feel frightened by the force that was able to kill the Qingyi Guard until only one person was left.

Half an hour later.

Xie Ruijin spoke until his mouth was dry, and under Xie Shu's constant questioning, he told the whole story.

"It seems that the other party does not want the princess to leave alive."

Xie Shu's eyes stopped at the waist badge: "He also tried to put the blame on our Xie family. What a good calculation!"

The attack on the teahouse was well planned.

Knowing that the old lady of the Cui family had passed away, the eldest princess had to rush back to the capital, so she set up an ambush in advance.

The bronze plaque was placed so cleverly that it was waiting to be discovered when someone searched the scene afterwards.

Suppose, the eldest princess is really dead.

Suppose, this bronze medal had not been discovered by Xie Ruijin.

Xie Shu was shocked. The Xie family was the culprit in the murder of the eldest princess!

Not only will the Queen Mother immediately turn against him, but the entire royal family will also become his enemy.

Even though the imperial power is weak now, there are still many ministers in the court who support it.

Some do it out of loyalty, others do it to protect existing interests.

Once the Xie family is proven guilty of this crime, they will be immediately equated with the crime of treason, and countless impeachments and accusations will come pouring in, and his position as Grand Tutor will be greatly threatened.

If you handle it inappropriately, there will be no recovery.

By then, let alone the current glorious status, it would be good enough to be able to save a few lives!

Seeing the change in his father's expression, Xie Rujin didn't dare to say a word.

After a while, Xie Shu patted him on the shoulder, with a rare look of appreciation in his eyes.

"Yes, well done!"

Xie Shu stretched out his hands and held his son's shoulders: "Good son!"

All he ever asked of his youngest son, who loved to play, was that he should not make mistakes.

Unexpectedly, he got such a big surprise today.

It can be said that saving the eldest princess was a coincidence, but after finding the badge, he hid it without making a sound, which showed his cleverness and calmness.

It has the style of the Xie family.

Xie Shu was an extremely strict father. This was the first time in his life that he received his father's recognition.

Xie Ruijin was so overwhelmed by his praise that she didn't even know where to put her hands.

I was excited, but I didn't know how to respond.

Not to mention that he felt awkward, Xie Shu also felt a little uncomfortable.

Xie Shu pretended to clear his cough and changed the subject: "Now that you are back, just stay here quietly for two more years. Your mother and grandmother have been so anxious about your marriage that their hair has turned a few gray. It's time for you to grow up."

Speaking of marriage, Xie Ruijin's face turned bitter again.

The days of being forced by his mother to attend banquets and being visited by ladies from different families made him want to turn around and run away just thinking about it.

Not to mention, from time to time some girl would accidentally drop small items such as sachets, handkerchiefs, jade pendants, gold hairpins, etc. in front of him.

Although he secretly complained in his heart, Xie Ruijin dared not say a word in front of his father and responded respectfully.

This was the father-son atmosphere he was familiar with.

"Go ahead. You just came back home and you came to me. I don't know how worried your mother is."

After Xie Ruijin left, Xie Shu summoned his trusted aides to discuss the matter and urgently investigate it.

He always planned before taking action, but now someone came up with such a vicious plan, intending to kill two birds with one stone.

He couldn't just sit there and wait for death.

The lights in Da Situ's mansion stayed on until late at night.

In the Xining Palace, Qin Yaoguang personally helped the Empress Dowager to wash and dress, and then got into the same bed with her.

In modern times, she has little family ties.

I didn't expect to experience such a strange thing as traveling through a book, and I didn't expect to gain rare family affection here.

It is said that there is no father and son in the royal family, and it is cold-blooded and heartless.

But she was so lucky to have a mother who loved her children so much.

Maybe, because it's just a book, not real history.

The character settings in the book were all created by the original author based on the needs of the plot, so that she can have the family affection of an ordinary family even in the royal family.

The bedroom was very quiet, and the light from the lanterns in the corridor seemed particularly distant.

Qin Yaoguang leaned sideways and said softly, "Mother, don't be sad. Take care of yourself first. I will find out who is plotting behind your back."

She could understand the Queen Mother's feelings.

Her mother's family, who she thought was a solid backing, was not satisfied with the status quo and secretly colluded with Prince Ruyang in an attempt to seize more power.

After being discovered by her, he actually tried to kidnap Le Yang to negotiate with her despite being severely warned.

The Cui family is determined to go down this path and has no intention of turning back.

Finally, the story was brought to an end with the death of the old lady of the Cui family.

The mother who gave birth to her and raised her threatened to commit suicide.

It was tantamount to stabbing the Empress Dowager in the heart.

He also gave the knife handle to someone else and roasted her over the fire.

Qin Yaoguang asked herself, if it were her, she would have gone crazy long ago and would never be as calm as the Queen Mother.

It had been a long time since the mother and son had slept in the same bed like this.

The Empress Dowager lay on her back without saying a word, but her fingers were clenched around Qin Yaoguang's hand and did not let go.

She was in pain, but it was because of the unbreakable blood ties. She had all the powerful means in her body, but she was unable to use them.

In the eyes of the world, she is a member of the Cui family whether she is alive or dead.

In the darkness, the Queen Mother slowly spoke, calling her by her childhood nickname: "Yaoyao, who do you think wants to kill you?"

"I have thought about it, and it is just the aristocratic family behind the scenes."

The Queen Mother was a little surprised.

She understood her daughter and did not understand the intricate struggles among the aristocratic families in the court.

When the Queen Mother asked this question, she did not expect to get an answer. She opened her eyes and said, "Tell me about it."

In fact, the Empress Dowager had some vague guesses in her heart.

She just didn't dare to think about it.

Since my daughter has her own ideas, I might as well listen to what she says.
