Mu Yan looked at her quietly. Seeing her frown, he knew she was worried, knew she was sad, and even more aware that she was sad.
He wanted to go forward and stroke her eyebrows away, and hold her in his arms. But his fists opened and closed, but there was no movement.
"Don't worry, Nian'er's position is very secure now. As long as he is good, Zhang Jie will not be able to take away his position. The emperor attaches great importance to his concubine, and the ministers below dare not violate it."
No matter how Han Wang Zhao Wang won the emperor's heart, the emperor never thought of deposing the prince.
"Wu's side, don't do anything."
Huo Xi looked at him.
"Don't do it yourself." Mu Yan said again.
Explained: "Don't get your hands dirty. It's not you who can't sit still now, it's Wu. Just wait for her to make a move, and then receive a severe blow."
"But I can't calm down when I see her. I think of my poor mother."
Mu Yan nodded: "I know."
"Now the witnesses are all in the hands of the British public. If he protects you, once you take action, you will be in trouble, and the reason will become unreasonable. It is her fault that she killed the master, and she was acting under orders, so she is not guilty.
Death. But if you want to kill your mother, you will not be tolerated by the world, and your sin is unpardonable."
A concubine is also a mother.
Besides, if a king wants his ministers to die, he will not dare not to die. If a father wants his son to die, he will not dare not to die. If he does not die, he will be unfaithful and unfilial. The Three Guidelines and Five Constant Rules govern the world.
The concubine attacked the Li family, but she was innocent of the crime. But if Huo Xi wanted to attack the Wu family, she would become a treasonous person.
"Furthermore, Jin Yiwei is everywhere now. When Taizu sent people to monitor Lan Yu, he knew exactly what he said to his family at night and even what he said in his sleep. There are traces for everything, so don't panic
Broken hands and feet."
If something happens to her, it will definitely affect Nian'er's status.
Huo Xi thought of this, closed her eyes in pain, and lay on the table.
Mu Yan looked at her black satin hair and stretched out his hand forward to comfort her. He stretched his hand in the air and then retracted it.
"Don't take the rumors in the market seriously. If you stand upright, you won't be afraid of what others say. The more bad the rumors are, the more people will sympathize with you and your brother. My aunt, the wife of Duke Dingguo, will set up a meeting in a few days.
Yan, said that I would leave a post for you. My aunt... also likes you very much and said that she would invite you to play at home. "
Huo Xi looked up at him. His eyes were full of concern, which made her feel warm.
The corner of Mu Yan's mouth raised a slight arc.
He looked at her and said, "How about I ask my aunt to propose marriage to the British father?"
"No." Huo Xi refused.
"Why?" Mu Yan looked cold.
"That's not what I meant." Seeing his worried expression, he hurriedly explained.
"What does that mean?" Could it be that he was still thinking of the one named Gong? Mu Yan was dissatisfied and grimaced.
"I'm worried about Nian'er. What will he do if he is left alone in the house? I'm not worried."
Mu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "You have to get married anyway, you can't take care of him for the rest of your life."
"Then we have to deal with the Wu family."
Wu Mu Yan narrowed his eyes.
After coming out of the Yingbin Building, Huo Xi returned to the Huo family.
"Why did you come back suddenly?"
"Mom, this is my home, I can't come back yet?" Huo Xi pouted and looked at her.
"You child, your father and I hope you come back often. It's best if you are at home every day." Yang held her hand and looked up and down.
She and Er Huai had also heard a lot of rumors in the market and were anxious in their hearts. Er Huai's lips were on fire.
Why do those people say that about their children? They just talk nonsense without knowing the truth! It has been difficult for the child these past few years. It took a lot of effort for the child to return to her father's family, but they are slandering her like this.
What did she do wrong?
The couple didn't sleep well at night.
"Where's my dad?"
"Your father went fishing in the Peach Blossom Stream and said he wanted to catch some peach blossom mandarin fish for you and Nian'er to eat. Your father and I heard those bad words and wanted to stop them, but we didn't know where the news came from.
Your father was sulking at home and getting angrier as he sat there, so he said he was going to catch you some fresh fish and shrimps to eat."
Huo Xi felt warm in her heart. Others slandered her, but her parents felt sorry for her and wanted to get her something delicious.
Sit next to Yang and talk to her.
"Nian'er has come to see us after school these past two days. We know he is well and we are happy. We are just worried about you."
"Mom, don't worry about me. Just let others say whatever they want. It won't hurt me."
Yang sighed, how could she not hurt anything? People in the world use words to criticize, and killing people with soft knives is even more terrifying. They are rough people and don't know what to do. They just held her hand and wouldn't let go.
He looked outside again and said, "Your uncle took An An to see a book school. Among the several book schools you selected, An An said that he would choose one that he liked. Your uncle took him there early in the morning. Why hasn't he done it yet?
return?"
If I come back and see my sister coming, but I don’t see her, I will howl again.
"I'll wait for An An to come back later and have dinner with him before leaving."
"Can I have dinner at home?" Ms. Yang was a little surprised. She just went home and didn't want to stay out too much.
"Yes. I can do whatever I want." Huo Xi replied.
The madam has no control over her. She can go out when she wants, and she doesn't even need to get a sign. She won't go out in the morning or dusk. The madam is dissatisfied, but she doesn't dare to nag her.
Both of them knew what was going on here.
The lady probably doesn’t want to see her either.
But she didn't want to go, but she didn't stop Nian'er from going. Unlike her, Nian'er was bound by loyalty, filial piety and etiquette. As long as he still wanted this family and this position, he had to abide by it.
You can't go wrong even if you follow the rules.
An An was really happy to see Huo Xi when she came back, and she was also angry that she wasted half a day outside.
"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have gone to the school. I would have been waiting for my sister at home." He pouted with dissatisfaction and his eyes accused Yang of not reminding him.
"Mom didn't know your sister was coming."
"Hmph. Sister, let me take you to see my pony! My brother gave me his pony. Now that he has a big horse, the pony belongs to me. It is mine now! My brother said that he will wait until he has a rest.
Just take me to ride horses! Sister, I will take you to see him, I take good care of him and even comb him!"
She took Huo Xi's hand and went to the stable to see the horses.
After watching the horses, Huo Xi played with him at home for a long time. After Nian'er got off school, she and Nian'er had dinner with him at home before returning to the Duke's Mansion.
"elder sister……"
"Um?"
"Don't be afraid, Nian'er will be able to protect you when he grows up. No one dares to bully you." He swore secretly in his heart.
Huo Xi looked at him and touched his head: "Okay. Then Nian'er will study hard in the Imperial College."
"Yeah!" Huo Nian nodded heavily.
The Imperial Academy taught Xi Junzi the Six Arts, some of which he had never been exposed to before, but he wanted to be strong and become stronger. He stumbled and finally kept up with the progress. He studied very late at night and did not dare to relax for a moment.
He didn't want his sister to worry.
He glanced at his sister, held her hand tightly, and comforted her silently. The two siblings entered the house hand in hand.
Rumors in the capital spread quickly, and soon reached Huai'an along the Grand Canal.
The palace mother He was having a banquet outside and listened several times.
The two legitimate children of the British prince's wife, who had been living abroad for ten years, finally returned to the family. This made her sigh with emotion, and she sighed with everyone.
In the blink of an eye, within a few days, there was news that the young lady who had just returned home was so depraved that she wanted to marry a merchant. Not to mention, she was rejected.
At first, He only listened to it as gossip and was still angry. What happened to the merchants? What was wrong with the merchants?
He also said that this young lady has good taste. If possible, I would like to see her.
But as I listened, I felt something was wrong.
After thinking about it for a long time, it turned out that the merchant with eyes on the top of his head was talking about his family!
