Chapter 172 He came to collect the debt in person.
Xie Xiu did not say directly that it was Chen Fang who ordered the wet nurse to kill Luo Sheng.
It also didn't mention that Old Master Xie and the old lady colluded with outsiders and condoned all this.
But the people present are not fools, how could they not think of this?
Then Xie Xiu said that the concubine was seven points similar to his biological mother, and was also beautiful, dignified, and gentle in nature.
How could everyone not hear that he was mocking Chen Fang for her plain appearance and vicious nature?
Although Xie Yun married her, he was always thinking about his beautiful and gentle first wife, and even kept a concubine who looked like his first wife!
Why would he take the risk of secretly keeping someone outside?
Naturally, he was on guard against Chen Fang, the vicious second wife, fearing that she would harm the mistress after she found out!
Didn't someone break into the outer room not long ago and set it on fire, trying to burn her to death?
Chen Fang could not tolerate this concubine. The death of Xie Xiu's biological mother could not have been caused by her wet nurse on her own initiative. It must have been ordered by her!
hiss--
This woman is truly more vicious than a jackal!
No wonder she gave birth to two vicious sons, Xie Yi and Xie Xin!
As everyone was stunned, Xie Yi could no longer contain himself and loudly protested, "This is impossible! How old was Big Brother back then? If he had truly witnessed such a horrifying scene, why didn't he burst into tears? And how can he still remember it so clearly?"
However, just as he finished speaking, he saw Xie Xiu curl his lips again, and the look in his eyes seemed to say: You asked a good question!
Xie Yi immediately felt extremely regretful: Oh no! He had fallen into the trap again!
Xie Yi felt a surge of panic and subconsciously wanted to stop Xie Xiu from continuing.
But in such a desperate situation, she couldn't think of a good excuse, so she could only look to Xie Yun for help, hoping that he could stop it.
Xie Yun sighed and said, "Your mother did have a difficult delivery that year, and she asked the midwife to perform a caesarean section to save your brother.
But the midwife back then wasn't your stepmother's wet nurse. You must have remembered it wrongly! Or perhaps someone else misled you! Your third brother is right. You were so young back then, how could you possibly remember it so clearly?
He wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Xie Xiu's cough.
“Ahem…” Xie Xiu said in a sad tone, “I also hope that I can forget those horrifying scenes.
I had indeed forgotten about it back then, but after falling into the water this time, all those long-forgotten memories came back to me.
When I saw that scene that year, I was really scared and wanted to rush out to stop it.
But my mother's maid stopped me. She held me tightly in her arms and covered my mouth with her hands, so I could only watch.
Later, I was so frightened that I fell ill. When I woke up, I had forgotten everything. The people who served my mother were gone too.
When he said this, he suddenly looked at Xie Yun, "Father, do you still remember where those people went later? After all, they took care of me and mother for many years. I should go and see how they are doing now... cough cough cough..."
Xie Yun was covered in cold sweat!
Where did those servants go?
Naturally, it was dealt with secretly.
He looked at Xie Xiu and felt a chill in his heart.
He regretted it!
Xie Xiu actually saw everything!
Now, he came to collect the debt in person!
Xie Yun felt a chill all over his body and kept thinking about countermeasures.
He couldn't just sit there and wait for death. He had to find a way to overturn all the accusations made by Xie Xiu and Tu Yong!
Even if he cannot be overthrown, he must be removed himself!
He has worked hard to get to his current position, and it must not be destroyed!
Xie Yun gritted his teeth secretly and said firmly: "No, you are wrong, there is something wrong with your memory!
It must be that someone took advantage of your childhood and deliberately whispered nonsense in your ear, scaring you into having a nightmare and making you believe what happened in the dream to be real.
Back then, I discovered that those people didn't serve me well enough, and some of them even tried to get into bed with me while I was drinking to drown my sorrows. That's why I got so angry that I dealt with them and sold them out.
I didn't expect them to tell you such nonsense behind my back! Unfortunately, many years have passed, and it's hard to find out where those people were sold to.
Otherwise, I will definitely capture them and find out who is behind this, deliberately alienating our father-son relationship and bringing you to this point of harm!"
Xie Ying watched coldly, sneering in her heart.
Those people must have been secretly executed long ago and turned into dry bones in the tomb, but Xie Yun still spoke with indignation on his face and righteous words, without any guilt at all.
He is indeed a vicious and ruthless old fox!
But does he think that's all?
They haven't revealed their real trump card yet.
Xie Ying lowered her eyes, hiding the coldness in them.
Crystal tears hung on her curled eyelashes, making her look even more pitiful.
However, Xie Yun's performance still made everyone present waver in their hearts. They felt that Xie Xiu was too young at the time and was likely to have been misled by Diao Nu.
Seeing Xie Yun easily recover from his loss, Chen Fang couldn't help but take advantage of the situation and said with a wry smile, "Forget it, Master, why should we embarrass him?
Since Xiu'er believes that I killed his biological mother, Master, just divorce me. This way, you have explained to Xiu'er, and I think Xiu'er will no longer blame you in the future."
"Mother!" Xie Yi looked at him anxiously, "What have you done wrong? It's obvious that my elder brother was deceived by the treacherous people and misunderstood you!"
Although he hated Xie Xiu, he did not dare to directly say that Xie Xiu deliberately wronged Chen Fang. He only said that he was deceived by the villain.
He continued, "If Mother really had such terrible intentions, why would she have allowed my eldest and second brothers to grow up safely? And personally arranged my second brother's marriage? And let him marry a virtuous wife and have two children? And why would he not have to worry about anything on a daily basis, but just focus on studying for the imperial examinations at the academy?"
When Xie Ying heard that he had the nerve to mention Xie You, she couldn't help but curl her lips in sarcasm.
Then he felt regretful: It's a pity that Xie You is not here, otherwise his expression would definitely be very interesting.
Xie Ying continued to watch the show when Tu Yong suddenly sneered, "If you hadn't mentioned this, I would have forgotten. How dare you mention your second brother? You and Xie Xin both entered the Imperial College, but your second brother only entered an ordinary academy.
You are so obviously biased. Do you think others are fools? Can't you see how biased you are?
Your second brother is named Xie You, and your concubine's daughter is also named Xie You. I'd like to ask, who gave this concubine's daughter her name? Why did they deliberately name her the same as the son your first wife desperately gave birth to?
Could it be that Master Xie, a distinguished Hanlin scholar, couldn't think of any other good names besides this one? Didn't his illegitimate daughter have a beautiful name, Xie Qiao?
That concubine's daughter is older than her, right? Why didn't you name her Xie Qiao? Didn't you think of that? "
As soon as these words were spoken, some people in the crowd couldn't help but burst out laughing.
As a Hanlin scholar, how could Xie Yun not come up with a good name?
Who among those present would believe such a thing?
Isn't naming the concubine's daughter Xie You just to disgust the second child born to the original wife?
