Chapter 710-Difficult Problem

Xie Yan wiped away his bitter tears for himself, saying that he was charmingly naive, and only he himself knew that he was physically and mentally exhausted, so he dressed in colorful clothes to entertain his parents.
It was not that he thought highly of himself, but that he was old. He dared to say that most of the people present were not as old as him.
Of course, he was referring to her actual age.
Xiao Baoxin and Xie Wan, Wang Qiang, and Twelfth Mother Wang sat together. Xiao Miaorong was going to give birth in a month. Now that she was pregnant, she wrote a letter to them. The letter was filled with bitter tears and all kinds of reactions during pregnancy.
The child in her stomach had been tormenting her enough. She had vomited from pregnancy until she was about to give birth, and she loved to bleed.
This was also the reason why Madam Xiao did not rush back in time despite knowing that Second Master Xiao was letting himself loose at home. Xiao Miaorong spent most of her time in bed recuperating, and Madam Xiao couldn’t leave.
Ever since Xiao Miaorong was pregnant, Xiao Baoxin had packed all kinds of slimming and nourishing prescriptions for his first child. He even packed the prescriptions and the real thing to go to Linhai once every three to four months.
She got all the tonics, food, and the new fabric and satin from Jiankang City.
The few wives sat together and talked about some family matters. Unknowingly, they started talking about Xiao Miaorong, and then Xiao Miaorong brought along a series of pregnant women.
They chatted enthusiastically.
Even if Xie Xian wanted to get close to her, he was too embarrassed to squeeze in. He simply sat next to Mother Xie.
Mother Xie was afraid that with Second Master Xiao and Third Master Xiao around, the young ladies of the younger generation would not be able to let go. After the family had a meal and greeted them, she let them go on their own. Xie Qing, on the other hand, had Xie Xian’s lamp shining on her, so she couldn’t leave even if she wanted to, especially when Madam Cai was staring at her.
Ever since he eavesdropped on his father teaching his daughter-in-law how to control his son, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had finally opened up. They were no longer in a daze and were as good as one person.
Madam Cai was now very interested in slimming down. She had been losing weight for more than half a month with great enthusiasm. She had not lost any weight, but she obviously did not think much of it. She felt that she had lost a lot of weight, and now she had gone to the young lady to share her experience.
Only Madam Wang and Madam Yuan were left sitting next to Mother Xie. They were talking about the matter of submitting the clan certificate.
In fact, Xiao Baoxin should have gone to Xiapi to submit the clan certificate half a year after he married into the Xie Clan. Only then would he have officially married into the Xie Clan and obtained the Xie Clan’s recognition.
In the end, Xiao Baoxin became pregnant not long after he entered the house. Not long after, the world was in chaos, and he could not go even if he wanted to. It was not easy for the world to settle down, but Xiao Baoxin had another child.
“.. No matter what, after this birth, we really have to hurry up and submit the clan certificate. Otherwise, it won’t sound good. If it’s taken out, people will say that our family has no rules.”Madam Wang urged,
“When I went to submit the clan certificate to Ah Zhao previously, the clansmen were already very dissatisfied. The clan leader even told me privately that he thought our Ah Lang didn’t respect the clan.”
“It’s not good for words to spread.”
Although Madam Yuan’s words sounded harsh, Madam Wang’s words were always right.”It’s the time to go to the place of being a woman.” After you give birth, take good care of your body. No matter how busy you are with work, you can’t delay the matter of submitting the family certificate. Ah Yan was almost a year old, but he had yet to submit his clan register. The in-laws are easy to talk to. If they really say anything, it’s us who are in the wrong.”
“Has our Ah Meng put up the clan register?” Xie Qing suddenly asked. Why don’t I go to Xiabupi with brother this time?”
Mrs. Cai walked over and was about to sit down when she heard her son say such heartless words. She gave him a cold glance and said, “Yes, I did. I asked your father to bring Ah Yao to bed. I’m afraid that by the time you have a grandson, my daughter-in-law won’t even be able to get a proper title.”
Xie Qing rubbed her nose. He had said too much.
Just as the family was in a heated discussion, Qing Feng was suddenly called away. When he returned, he went straight to Xie Xian.
“The Emperor invites Lord Lang into the palace.”
There was silence.
Qingfeng thought,”He’s talking so loudly that he has a loudspeaker function?”
Xie Xian didn’t say much and left after apologizing to his mother.
Xie Wan saw it and went forward. What’s wrong?”
“This kind of time…” Madam Wang raised her eyebrows.” It can’t be a good thing.”
“If it’s not, which one is it…” She didn’t finish her sentence, but she understood what she meant.
“Then why did you ask brother to enter the palace?” Xie Wan frowned. What did it have to do with his brother?
He couldn’t possibly ask his brother to handle everything, right?
“Maybe it’s government affairs.””
Xiao Baoxin had been looking at Xie Xian the entire time. When he left, he turned around and shook his head gently at her.
He did not know.
Moreover, he felt that it would not be a good thing.
The Mid-Autumn Banquet ended in such an atmosphere.

“Who is it?”
“Minister Xie, tell me who it is.”Emperor Yong Ping clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on his forehead popped out.”Who doesn’t want my child to be born?”
“One pregnant, one lost! Consort He Shu, one corpse and two lives today…”
Emperor Yong Ping’s eyes were teary and red.”He Shu Fei is dead. My cousin died…Someone had tampered with her sedan!”
It had to be said that Xie Xian and the Grand Empress Dowager were thinking the same thing.
He was also afraid that this second generation Emperor Yu Heng would die if he loved someone. If he died, he would fall in love with someone. That was too scary.
However, Consort He Shu’s corpse and two lives were still very shocking news.
Xie Xian pondered for a long while, “Can you find out who did it?” ”
“A eunuch beside Shu Fei hanged himself.”
There were witnesses who claimed to have seen the little eunuch approach the palanquin, but he was usually favored by Consort Shu, so no one thought too much about it. It was just that after Shu Fei’s accident, this matter was found out. Unfortunately, when Empress Xiao sent people to arrest him, the little eunuch had already committed suicide.
Without any last words, he hung himself with a belt.
They could continue to investigate, but it was inevitable that they would follow in the footsteps of the past. It could be foreseen that they did not need to investigate the capital of Yongping to know. Wasn’t Empress Xiao one of them? The dignified mother of a country had her child aborted without a sound, and then she died. There was no way to investigate further.
“Who did you say it was?” Emperor Yong Ping stepped forward and grabbed Xie Xian’s sleeve, as if he would not stop until he got an answer.
Xie Xian said seriously, “Your Majesty, how can I speak nonsense without any evidence? How can I act on subjective speculation?””
Then, he paused for a moment before continuing,”
“If Your Majesty really wants to investigate thoroughly, then send someone to be strict and thorough. No matter how many people die, we will continue to investigate. There will always be a time when clues will be revealed.”
“Even if it’s a diversion, even if it’s calling a deer a horse, as long as Your Majesty has a steelyard in his heart and knows what to do, it’s fine.”
In one sentence, Emperor Yong Ping’s path was actually blocked again.
Emperor Yong Ping knew very well what the outcome of the investigation would be. Even if they found out who it was, how could they have any concrete evidence?
And when these pieces of evidence that were likely to have been ‘found’ were placed in front of him, it was a difficult question whether or not he should deal with them.
