Yan Dong displayed his official might, but he did not beat Cai Erlang into submission. After being beaten ten times, he was almost paralyzed on the ground. He was still supported by his servants.
After all, he was a young master of an aristocratic family. Yan Dong dared to shout and beat him up, but the bailiffs below still came with him in their arms. They did not dare to beat him up. It was fine as long as they did it as a token of appreciation.
It wasn’t that Yan Dong couldn’t tell, but he just closed one eye.
However, Cai Erlang’s face that was gritting his teeth and cursing really made Yan Dong furious.”
If Second Young Master Cai isn’t convinced and thinks that I’m protecting each other,” he gritted his teeth and said,””We’ll report this to the emperor and argue with him!”
Cai Erlang spat. Who didn’t know that the Emperor only listened to Xie Xian’s words? Xie Xian’s fart was fragrant.
Of course, he did not dare to say this.
He was stunned, but he wasn’t stupid. He could only say such disrespectful words to his wife in his own room. If he really did it in front of everyone, he wouldn’t be so suicidal!
“This matter.Jt won’t be that easy!” Cai Erlang said angrily.
“I’ll accompany you to the end!”
This was a hoot.
Xie Qing stood at the side with her arms crossed, watching the show. Twelfth Xi followed behind Cai Erlang.
“Twelfth Young Master, take care. I’ll get someone to retrieve the silver.”
Twelfth Xi’s eyes were as if they had been tempered with ice. Did he lack that bit of silver?
“The Xie family is a big family, so this Young Master isn’t afraid of them going back on their word. The mountains and rivers meet again, we are in the middle of the country. There will be plenty of times to meet in the future.”
With that, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Xie Qing shrugged her shoulders and greeted the health order politely before leaving.
As soon as he left the government office, he saw two ox-carts waiting outside. Seeing him come out, Ba Lang got out of the car.
He Balang was only 15 or 16 years old, but he was already very tall. She had delicate features, but her voice was changing and was a little hoarse.
“It’s fine if Ninth Brother doesn’t come back, but once he comes back, it’s earth-shattering.”He walked forward with a smile.” Last time when Ninth Brother left, I told him that I wanted to give him a welcome party when he came back.”
“I knew that Ninth Brother had many things to do and must have forgotten about me, so I came to find him.”
Hurry up and get in the car. Don’t be long-winded.” The curtain of the other carriage was lifted. It was Eighteenth Prince of the Xi family.”We’ve already booked a private room. Let’s go directly. Ninth Brother, get in my car.” Xie Qing glanced at Xi Eighteen Lang and rubbed her nose.
Eighteenth, that Twelfth…Sorry for offending you.”
Xi Shiba sneered.” Brother Jiu, please don’t say that to me. I have nothing to say to the 12th Young Master. He is the son of the first wife and the grandson of the first wife. Naturally, he doesn’t care about us bastards.””
“Is Shichiro angry with me?” Xie Qing asked.
I’m here.” When Cai Qilang heard Xie Qing mention him, he quickly squeezed his face out from behind Xi Shiba and said with a smile,””We can’t do anything about it. We’re just trying to avoid suspicion. We’re afraid that our family will say something if they see it. Brother Nine is back, we’re supposed to have a welcoming party, how could I be absent? Will Brother Nine stay in Jiankang this time? Tell us more about your travels. Brother Jiu is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and we admire him greatly.”
Ming Yue, who was following behind Xie Qing, was flabbergasted.
His Jiulang knew how to do it.
A few of the Emperor’s childhood friends had actually been subdued by Xie Qing without batting an eyelid.
It seemed like she took him seriously and kept calling him Brother Nine.
One had to know that these people were on good terms with Emperor Yong Ping or King Xin ‘an. Most of them were the concubines of the various prefectures. Even the Emperor looked down on legitimate Di sons, and the Crown Prince had half of the Langya Wang family’s bloodline. Whether it was out of disdain or for the sake of the Empress and the Crown Prince’s face, legitimate Di sons would not be close friends.
The only ones who could play with Xin ‘an King were some concubines.
However, it was different after the Xin ‘an King ascended the throne. These few were immediately given the title of general. Although it was only a virtual title and did not have any real power, with the official title, it was different.
These few people were often called to the palace to become saints. In the future, they would naturally be promoted. Therefore, they were considered to have a great reputation in the various prefectures and had a bright future. Therefore, with their current status, it was already quite a show of respect for them to be able to lower themselves to call him ‘Brother Nine’.
It also showed Xie Qing’s prestige among them.
“I don’t dare to say that I’m knowledgeable. It’s just that the more places I go, the more people I see. If you guys are willing to listen, I’m willing to say it, so why not?”Xie Qing didn’t decline and turned to Ming Yue,
“I’m done here, so I won’t be returning to the residence for now. Please.”
Ming Yue: Do you still remember that your mother gave birth to a little brother for you, and the one you brought back to the residence died after giving birth to a son for you?
His heart was big enough.
However, even though Xie Qing was a concubine’s child, she was still the master in name. Ming Yue would at least give him face on the surface.
“Then this lowly one will return to the residence first.”
“Thank you, thank you.” Xie Qing patted Ming Yue’s shoulder to show her closeness.
He turned around and got into He Balang’s car, saying to the other two,””There are not many people in his car. I’ll lie down and rest for a while. I’ve been tormented to death these two days.”
After saying that, the wheels rolled and the person flicked his sleeves and left.
Ming Yue resigned herself to her fate and returned to her residence.

Xie Xian did not return to the residence, as well as the
After the court session, Emperor Yong Ping was asked to stay.
One matter had dragged three aristocratic families into it. The matter could not be said to be small, so it naturally could not hide from the Emperor’s eyes.
As the emperor, Emperor Yong Ping naturally did not want the aristocratic families to unite. However, since the war had just subsided, he did not want this matter to blow up too much and cause a commotion in the court.
Therefore, he had asked his subordinates to pay attention to this matter.
However, Xie Xian had stayed behind not because of this matter, but because the court had received Zhuge Fu’s secret message and was on his way back to Dahang from Rouran. The person who came with him was the seventeenth son of the Rouran King. He had come to Daliang to marry the princess and establish a good relationship between the two countries.
At that time, the war had just begun. In order to prevent North Wu from taking advantage of the opportunity to rebel, Xie Xian sent Zhuge Fu and his son to make friends with Rouran to contain North Wu.
As expected, war raged in Daliang, and the Northern Wu took the opportunity to raise an army. The governor of Xuzhou defected. It was because Sikong Xiao and his son in the south had stopped the enemy, and Zhuge Fu in the north had persuaded Rouran to succeed. Rouran had sent troops at the critical moment to attack the rear of the Northern Wu, causing the Northern Wu to be in a dilemma. That was why they withdrew their troops in Daliang and protected the northern border with all their strength, solving the urgent problem of Daliang.
Now that North Wu and Rouran had reached a truce, both sides had stopped fighting and suffered losses.
Even when the world had just been pacified, Rouran had followed Zhuge Liang out to Daliang. On the surface, she was seeking a princess, but in reality, she was also here to get back the many benefits that Daliang had promised.
However, they were afraid that they would leak the news and alert the alliance of Northern Wu that intercepted Daliang and Rouran midway, so they had done everything in secret.
The current situation had changed. Rouran had sent troops at the critical moment when Northern Wu attacked Daliang. No one would believe that Rouran and Daliang had no secret dealings. Therefore, Rouran did not hide the fact that they had sent a prince to Daliang. It was a big show, as if the whole world was celebrating and making a fuss..
