Today is Xiumu, Xu Taihe stayed in Fuqu Pavilion yesterday, early in the morning, Mrs. Xie personally took care of him to wash and change his clothes, "Master, can you go to see Eldest Young Master today?"

When Xu Xuanying was mentioned, Xu Taihe became angry, "Why is Xuanying dissatisfied with being able to marry such a virtuous and virtuous noble daughter as Lin's wife? It was also proposed by the Zhenyuan General's House that day. Xuanying's behavior like this , Aren’t you slapping the Yasukuni government and the general’s government in the face? How will I face those two colleagues in the future?”

Mrs. Xie wondered: "This is a matter of the inner house, so I shouldn't have told the master. But that day, I really saw Yun'er crying so sadly, that's why..."

Xu Tai said softly, "My husband understands."

"Speaking of which, the eldest young master seems to be dissatisfied with the marriage before he got married—"

"Is he dissatisfied?" Xu Taihe sternly said, "Why is he dissatisfied? Besides, even if he is no longer willing, he still nodded his head in the end, but now he blames his new wife. How can this be a gentleman's behavior? "

"Master," Mrs. Xie persuaded gently, "You should talk to Madam about this matter first, and let her go and persuade Eldest Young Master, that's the most appropriate."

Xu Taihe nodded, "Yao'er don't worry, you know what your husband is."

In Shi'an Garden, Lin Ruyun was greeting Mrs. Zhang.Since Lin Ruyun married into Xu's residence, she has spent the morning and evening with peace of mind, serving her parents-in-law and the things that a daughter-in-law should do.Mrs. Zhang sat upright in the upper seat, her emotions and anger were invisible, her eyebrows and eyes were serious, and she had the majesty of a royal family. "Xuanying came to greet me yesterday, and I saw that he has lost a lot of weight, and he has become haggard. You have only been married for a month, and it should be the time when you are newlyweds. Your husband is not at ease. As a wife, you can Wrong?"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Ruyun didn't dare to continue sitting, stood up and knelt down towards Mrs. Zhang, and said respectfully, "Yun'er knows his mistake."

Mrs. Zhang took a sip of tea and continued: "You come from a wealthy family, and your natal family must have taught you many rules, so I won't say much about them. There is just one thing, as a wife, you don't need to be beautiful. The most important thing is to give birth to Xuanying's son as soon as possible, and then take care of the family and raise the children, so that he has no worries."

Lin Ruyun couldn't bear it any longer, and said, "But mother, my husband..."

"Xuanying will never make mistakes." Mrs. Zhang said sharply, "Even if there are mistakes, it is also yours. Do you understand?"

Lin Ruyun lowered her eyes, "Yun'er understands."

"Okay, let's go down. Go back and think about how to make Xuanying put her heart on you."

Not long after Lin Ruyun retired, someone came to report, "Ma'am, the master is here."

Except for the holidays, or when there are important family matters, Xu Taihe seldom set foot in Shi'an Garden, let alone staying overnight here for many years. "Master?" Zhu Ping was both surprised and delighted, "Ma'am, why don't you go change your clothes and let this servant comb your hair again?"

"No need." Mrs. Zhang looked very calm, "I've reached this age, what's the use of dressing up. Let's go." She raised her hand, and Zhu Ping rushed over to help her, "Go to see the master."

Seeing Mrs. Zhang, Xu Taihe didn't even sit down, and said directly: "I heard that Xuanying has been staying in the study since she got married, and Mrs. Lin is not allowed to visit on weekdays. Is there such a thing?"

While making tea, Mrs. Zhang said: "Which of the servants who gobbled their tongues told the master again?"

"That's not the point." Xu Taihe pushed away the tea handed by Mrs. Zhang, and said angrily, "Ms. Lin is Xuanying's official wife, and also the most beloved granddaughter of Lord Jingguo. Xuanying married her, even if Gao Pan didn't agree with her." No. Lord Jingguo also knew me well, and admired Xuanying so much that he agreed to this marriage. It’s only been a long time since I entered the door, but he has been ignored by him. If this matter gets to Lord Jingguo’s mansion..."

Mrs. Zhang interrupted him unceremoniously, "Since she is already the daughter-in-law of my Xu family, if she and her natal family deal with her husband's family, it will be in vain to bear the title of 'virtuous and virtuous'."

Xu Taihe snorted coldly, "You are reasonable. I don't care what method you use, you must let Xuanying go back to the bedroom to sleep, otherwise I, the father, will talk to him personally. If he still refuses, I will personally go to the Yasukuni Mansion to make amends to my in-laws, and it is up to them to decide whether to reconcile or not."

Mrs. Zhang couldn't hold back her usual indifference any longer. She looked at Xu Taihe in disbelief, and complained: "Harmony? The master can say these two words! After the reconciliation, how did the master let Xuanying gain a foothold in the court?" ? Could it be that the second child is the master’s son, so isn’t Xuanying the master’s son?”

"What kind of bastard are you talking about!" Xu Taihe said angrily, "Xuanying is my son-in-law, from childhood to adulthood, when have I ever treated him badly? Xilu is in this family, and he is better than one-tenth of him? This matter was originally Xuanying's fault, and you, a mother, didn't know how to look after her, and even helped him bully the bride, what face do you have to talk about others?"

Mrs. Zhang said tremblingly: "Yes, what I do now is wrong, the housekeeper is wrong, and it is wrong to teach my son. In this case, why don't the master divorce me and help Xie Yao to be his wife?"

"Presumptuous!" Xu Taihe slammed the teacup on the table on the ground, and the servants guarding outside were too frightened to speak out when they heard the movement. "I think you and I have given you a chance because of our relationship as a husband and wife for many years, but you keep uttering wild words again and again. If you are allowed to do this, this family will be destroyed in your hands sooner or later! Come on, Send your wife to the ancestral hall and confine her for three days, no one can visit without my permission!"

"Master!" Zhu Ping hurriedly knelt down, pulled Xu Taihe by the hem of his clothes, and begged, "Madam was also in a hurry, so she said the wrong thing. Please, for the sake of the young master, please forgive me!"

Xu Taihe didn't pay attention to what a maid said at all, he gave Zhang Shi a cold look, shook his sleeves and left.He left in such a hurry, as if staying in Shi'an Garden for a moment longer would kill him, so that he didn't even see Xu Xuanying who was stunned by the door.

Two servants stepped forward and respectfully said to Mrs. Zhang: "Madam, please."

Mrs. Zhang closed her eyes, put on her courteous demeanor again, and followed the servant out.

"Mother……"

Mrs. Zhang stopped abruptly, "Xuanying? When did you..."

"Mother." Xu Xuanying said hoarsely, "It is my son who is sorry for you."

Zhang Qiang calmly said: "Silly boy, it's okay, mother will protect you, you go back first."

After his father left, Xu Xuanying watched his mother being taken away, but he found that he couldn't do anything.In the past 20 years, every step he took was paved for her by Mrs. Zhang. Now that she is gone, who else can tell him what should he do?

He was in a daze, not knowing where to go or who to look for.When he came back to his senses, he found that he had already reached the gate of Xu Mansion. "Eldest young master," his servant Chao Ti asked cautiously, "do you want to go out?"

"Get out..." Xu Xuanying murmured, and suddenly thought of something, her dark eyes lit up again, "Yes, I want to go out!"

He is going to find the prince, the prince will definitely understand his difficulties!As long as he knows what he has done for him, he will definitely protect himself as before, and will not let himself be wronged in the slightest.Only the prince can save him from the abyss.

"Prepare the car!" Xu Xuanying said impatiently, "Go...to Prince Duan's Mansion!"

In Prince Duan's mansion, Xu Xilu was in a daze in the morning light.He remembered that he couldn't suppress his sleepiness last night and fell asleep in Song Yanqing's study.According to Song Yanqing's personality, she should wake herself up roughly, and then make some sarcastic remarks.How could he be lying on the bed well now?

"Second Master Xu, are you awake?" Luo Tao came in with hot water, and said with a sweet smile, "The little prince told you to go to the front hall to have dinner with him after you wash up."

"Oh," Xu Xilu was flattered, "Okay, I'll go right away."

When Xu Xilu came to the front hall, Song Yanqing was drinking porridge with an exquisite porcelain bowl. Hearing the movement, his jaw was raised slightly, and his black eyes squinted, "It's quite early."

Xu Xilu said modestly: "It's okay, it's not as early as the prince."

Luo Tao said: "Second Master Xu, our little prince didn't sleep at all last night."

"En?" Xu Xilu looked at Song Yanqing carefully, and he saw that his eyes were a little swollen, "Staying up late hurts the liver, please take care of yourself, little prince."

"You are less angry with me a few times, and it will be more beneficial to my liver." Song Yanqing lazily pointed to the seat opposite, "Sit down."

Xu Xilu smiled and said, "Then I won't be polite."

Today's breakfast is boiled crab meat porridge, which is fragrant and soft, and has the deliciousness of crabs. Coupled with a few delicious snacks, it is enough to make early risers move their index fingers.Luo Tao served a bowl of porridge for Xu Xilu, who asked her, "How much crab porridge is there in the kitchen?"

Luo Tao was a little surprised and said: "There is still a small half pot, does Second Master Xu want to use more?"

"No," Xu Xilu said distressedly, "I'm just afraid that your little prince will force me to finish all the porridge again."

Song Yanqing said unhappily: "Eat your meal, why so much nonsense."

Luo Tao couldn't help laughing.For some reason, watching the young prince and Second Young Master Xu arguing at the dinner table is like seeing the future prince and princess.

The two were eating, when Xuan Mo's voice came from outside the screen, "My lord."

Song Yanqing said: "What's the matter?"

"Master Xu is here."

Xu Xilu's hand holding the chopsticks paused slightly - what is Xu Xuanying doing here?Could it be that he really wanted to abandon his wife and return to Song Yanqing's embrace?

Song Yanqing also showed surprise, "He can tell, why did he come?"

Xuan Mo said: "I didn't say anything, I just said it was something important. He also said that he must see the prince today, otherwise he would have been waiting outside the mansion."

Xu Xilu smiled lightly, even used this trick?

Song Yanqing put down the chopsticks in his hand, "Then you bring him in."

Xu Xilu stood up knowingly, "Then, my lord, I will step back first."

"Why are you stepping back?" Song Yanqing asked strangely, "Your brother is here, why don't you see him?"

Xu Xilu patiently explained: "My lord, this is not in the Xu mansion. My elder brother saw me at your mansion early in the morning. Tell me, what would he think?"

"Don't worry about it," Song Yanqing said coldly, "but anyone with a brain will not misunderstand that you have anything to do with this king."

Now that Song Yanqing had said that, Xu Xilu sat down with peace of mind, thinking it was a good show.

Soon, Xu Xuanying walked into the front hall under the leadership of Xuan Mo.He looked a little embarrassed, but the pace under his feet was very eager. "My lord, Yanqing..." He only had Song Yanqing in his eyes, he didn't seem to see Xu Xilu who was sitting next to him, "I...I'm back."

Song Yanqing was puzzled, "Are you back?"

"My lord, I..."

Seeing that Xu Xuanying was about to make an affectionate confession to Song Yanqing, Xu Xilu immediately coughed a few times to show his existence.

Sure enough, Xu Xuanying stopped talking, and followed the sound. From this look, his whole body seemed to be frozen in place, as if he had been immobilized.

Xu Xilu greeted him with a smile: "Good morning, brother."

"Second brother? Why are you here?" Xu Xuanying looked at Xu Xilu, and was surprised to find that he was actually wearing the prince's clothes.Then his eyes fell on the half-eaten breakfast, and the spark in his eyes was extinguished little by little, leaving only darkness.

The few people were silent tacitly, until Song Yanqing said: "Xuanying, you came to the palace early in the morning to find me, but what's the matter?"

Xu Xuanying came back to her senses, swallowed all the words, and said with a stiff smile: "My lord, can I have a few words with you alone?"

"No need." Song Yanqing refused, "If you have anything to say, just say it. Xilu is not an outsider."

Xu Xuanying's heart skipped a beat - isn't it an outsider?Is it because Xu Xilu is his younger brother, or is it because of something else?

"Xuanying?"

"My lord..." Xu Xuanying lowered her head, not looking at the picture of the two sitting together, "I drew a picture of mountains and rivers today, and I want to show it to my lord."

"What about the painting?"

Xu Xuanying bit her lip, almost crying, her voice was as low as a mosquito's gnat, "I...forgot to bring it."

Song Yanqing was quiet for a while, and said with a complicated expression: "You go back today first, that painting can be sent to the palace some other day."

"Yes……"

"Brother, please stop." Xu Xilu suddenly called Xu Xuanying, who was in a daze, "The prince told me last night that he sent me a bottle of Wen Ning pills, and my elder brother helped to deliver them. But I haven't received it for a long time, presumably it must be Eldest brother is newlywed Yan Er, he only has his sister-in-law in his eyes, so he forgot about it for a while."

At this moment, Xu Xuanying felt like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, standing naked in front of the two of them with no dignity at all.He resisted the urge to rush out the door, and shamelessly said: "Yes, I forgot, I will give it to you when I return home."

Song Yanqing glanced at Xu Xilu, and said to Xuan Mo: "Send Mr. Xu out of the house."

When Xu Xuanying turned around and walked out the door, she vaguely heard Xu Xilu's voice behind her: "My lord, you might as well take a rest after eating too early, after all, your lord worked hard all night last night..."

Xu Xuanying almost ran away in despair.Xu Xilu looked at his back, half-truthfully said: "The prince is using me, it really makes me very sad."

"Stop pretending." Song Yanqing mercilessly dismantled him, "I saw that you were quite good just now."

Xu Xilu looked innocent, "My lord was wronged, I just said a few words."

"Those two sentences of yours are heartbreaking."

"My lord was joking," Xu Xilu smiled slightly, "I'm afraid I'm not the one who punishes my elder brother."

Song Yanqing said indifferently: "The daughters from the Jingguo Mansion are not bad, Xuanying should cherish them."

Xu Xilu picked up the bowls and chopsticks again, and sighed: "The lord really can afford it and put it down. I just hope that the eldest brother will communicate with him soon."

"I don't understand," Song Yanqing said in a low voice, "It was he who was going to get married that day, why is he the one who is entangled today."

"This is the essence of human beings." Xu Xilu said leisurely, "I always like to be ruthless when others are mean, and when others are cruel, I want to run over to be mean."
