Xie Qingshan also felt a little uneasy. After all, it was he who poured the medicine himself! If Xie Yuanting died... wouldn't this life fall on his head?
Xie Qingshan has served Xie Jun for many years and is regarded as Xie Jun's most trusted confidant. At this time, he dared to test in a low voice: "I don't know that the master has brought medicine!"
Xie Jun's nosebleed stopped, but the pain on the bridge of his nose was still excruciating. How could he be in the mood to deal with Xie Qingshan, so he snorted.
Xie Jun secretly bought the medicine with a large amount of money. It is not poison. It will only cause some symptoms similar to a serious disease, but it will not cause any serious harm to the body.
After all, he is his biological son. As long as Xie Yuanting is willing to "recuperate" in the farm, Xie Jun will not be so cruel to Xie Yuanting.
Unexpectedly, Xie Yuanting turned against his own father out of resentment.
In this way, Xie Jun had nothing to hesitate about.
Xie Qingshan wisely said nothing more.
Whether Xie Yuanting is alive or dead has nothing to do with him, so he doesn't care about it.
…
Half a month later, Xie Jun went to Lianchi Academy again.
"...Yuan Ting contracted a nasty disease. He had blisters all over his body that were itchy and he had to scratch from time to time. I have sent a doctor to the farm to see him. The doctor said that this kind of strange disease is quite rare and easily contagious. It can only be continued forever.
I stayed at the farm to recover from my illness."
"Aunt Ding loves her son so much that she willingly stays in the farm to take care of Yuan Ting. If Yuan Ting is not well, she will not return home."
In front of Chief Gu Shan, Xie Jun looked regretful and his tone was a little sad.
No matter how prosperous Gu Shanchang was, he would not be able to hear the meaning of these words. He would avoid it without commenting on it and just find an excuse.
Only father and daughter were left in the house.
Xie Mingxi's eyes flashed slightly and she said calmly: "Since eldest brother is ill, he should really take good care of himself."
Xie Yuanting's "disease" may be difficult to "cure" in the future. Aunt Ding is finally satisfied and can always be by her son's side.
I just wonder if Aunt Ding’s deep love for her son can withstand the passage of long years...
A trace of sarcasm flashed in Xie Mingxi's eyes, but she didn't say much.
Xie Mingxi's expression was indifferent, and Xie Jun did not mention it any more, but instead whispered: "These days, when the imperial censor was the official, someone impeached the prince of Huainan. Even the matter of Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds was revealed, and Huainan was
Prince Wang scolded me unbearably."
"Some people are impeaching the King of Hejian. They say that the King of Hejian is indecisive, has nothing to do, and is unworthy of being in charge of the clan. The princes and princes are restless, and the courtiers are also turbulent. The court is quite uneasy."
"The princes are all stable, and none of them are involved."
"Hearing that King Huainan has been ill for a long time, the emperor specially sent the imperial doctor to King Huainan's Mansion to treat King Huainan. It seems that King Huainan has not completely lost his Sacred Heart."
"Huainan Prince's Mansion has deep roots and big leaves. It is not easy to knock down this big tree." Xie Mingxi answered the question with sharp words and hit the nail on the head: "Moreover, the emperor may not be happy to see Prince Linjiang being the only one among the princes."
Emperor Jianwen, who was sitting on a dragon's chair, was not a wood-carved clay figure, so he must have had a glimpse of the true intention after the dispute between the clansmen.
After suppressing the Huainan Prince and his son, and overwhelming the fourth prince, it was time to petition the Eastern Palace.
Sure enough, Xie Jun's next sentence was: "Today, someone actually presented a memorial to the court, asking for the crown prince."
Xie Mingxi smiled faintly: "The ones who jumped out first are just chess pieces asking for directions. The old ministers have not made a move yet. If you ask for a crown prince, the emperor will definitely ignore it."
A flash of astonishment flashed in Xie Jun's eyes. He looked at Xie Mingxi for a moment and then nodded. Then he couldn't help but ask: "Has His Highness the Seventh Prince already told you these things?"
Sheng Hong came to Lianchi Academy every day in the name of practicing martial arts, and he always had the opportunity to meet and talk to Xie Mingxi. In Xie Jun's opinion, Sheng Hong must have said something in private.
Otherwise, how can a girl in a boudoir understand the affairs of the court?
…
Xie Mingxi clearly saw the disapproval in Xie Jun's eyes.
The court is a place where men compete for power and gain, with swords and swords fighting, and there is no place for women to intervene. No matter how smart and outstanding a woman is, she can only be confined to the inner house.
Even Queen Yu could not interfere in the government affairs openly. At most, she could secretly win over some people for her own use. Most of the officials in the court who wanted to show favor to Queen Yu would go to Yu's house.
No matter how proud Xie Jun is of her, he still has contempt in his bones. This contempt for women seems to be in the blood of men from birth. Inadvertently, it can be expressed in words.
Xie Mingxi twitched the corners of her lips: "This is such a trivial matter. If you have a long brain, you can think of it. Why does Sheng Hong need to waste more words!"
Xie Jun: "..."
Xie Jun looked at Xie Mingxi silently for a moment, cleared his throat, and solemnly reminded: "In the future, you are not allowed to mention the Seventh Prince's name in front of others. You must address him as Your Highness!"
Even if you get married in the future, you still have to respect your husband-in-law at all times. There is no reason to call out names wantonly!
Xie Mingxi smiled: "I only speak more casually when facing my father."
This short sentence immediately narrowed the distance between father and daughter.
Xie Jun's heart felt as if it had been ironed, and he smiled happily: "That's true. There is really no need to be too reserved when talking between father and daughter."
…
Xie Jun came here in good spirits and returned satisfied.
Xie Mingxi sent Xie Jun out of the academy and then turned around.
Chief Gu was waiting for Xie Mingxi. He obviously had something to discuss: "Mingxi, in a few days, Mu Ziqi will get married. Are you willing to go and add makeup?"
There are not many noble students in Lianchi Academy, and Chief Gu is very familiar with all the students. He is also happy to see the students getting along harmoniously and interacting with each other.
However, the Xie family and the Huainan Palace have completely fallen out. Mu Ziqi is about to marry into the Huainan Palace again. I wonder if Xie Mingxi is willing to go to the Mu family to add makeup...
Mu Ziqi.
A lively and smiling face of a round-faced girl quickly flashed in Xie Mingxi's mind.
When she first entered Lianchi Academy, the senior sister who came to greet her was Mu Ziqi. Although she didn't have much contact with him after that, she had a good impression of Mu Ziqi.
Unfortunately, Lord Mu agreed to the marriage proposal of King Huainan and betrothed Mu Ziqi to Sheng Xuan. In a few days, they will get married.
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "Sister Mu is getting married, and Mr. Mu is my father's boss. I really should come to the house to add makeup and congratulate you."
A smile flashed in Gu Shanchang's eyes: "It's good if you have such a big heart."
The amount of gifts is secondary, the most important thing is to show your attitude.
Family feud is one thing, classmate friendship is another.
Xie Mingxi laughed when he heard this: "Master really worries about his disciples every day."
In the final analysis, Shanchang Gu still had her own interests in mind, fearing that she would get the reputation of being narrow-minded and always willing to pay for every penny. She was truly blessed to have such a considerate master.
