Chapter 169: We are worried!

Shi Qingluo thought of a question.

“Isn’t Xi Rong married or engaged?”

Otherwise, why would you run away from home?

Xiao Hanzheng replied: “When the princess was still alive, she arranged a wedding for Xi Rong.”

“Although the princess and her husband died young, Xi Rong was taken to the palace to be raised, so the family not only did not break off the engagement, but they were also very enthusiastic about the marriage.”

“It was originally planned to marry Xi Rong when she was 16 years old, but who knew that 1 year before the wedding, Xi Rong’s fiancé secretly raised an outsider wife.”

“Then he was discovered by Xi Rong.”

“She directly brought someone to the door, whipped her fiancé and the outsider’s wife, then wrote a letter of retiring from engagement and threw it in the face of the other party.”

“This incident caused quite a stir in the capital at that time. Many people privately scolded Xi Rong for not following female ethics.”

“There are also censors who brought it up to the court.”

“The Emperor loves Xi Rong as much as his daughter, so he protects her from her shortcomings.”

“Not only did he scold the censor, he also allowed Xi Rong to inherit the title of the Marquis of Nanshan.”

“The court was shaken at that time. Many pedantic officials stood up to oppose it. After all, there was no female marquis in the previous or current dynasty.”

“However, the arm cannot twist the thigh, and the Emperor’s attitude is firm, so those people can only acquiesce.”

“Because of Xi Rong’s previous feats, no one proposed marriage anymore.”

“She didn’t care either. She even said that she would never get married for the rest of her life and asked the Emperor to take back his order to marry her as his plan.”

“Both the Emperor and the Empress Dowager were indebted to her, so they left it to her own will.”

“Xi Rong was completely lethargic, and from then on she hung out with Xi Rui and other dandies in the capital.”

“In addition, she has a strong temperament. She will whip anyone she doesn’t like, so she is a famous female devil in the capital.”

“Her reputation is getting worse and worse. Although no one dares to provoke her, no one also dares to marry her.”

When he died in his last life, Xi Rong was still single, and even raised an army composed of women.

He added: “Although Xi Rong and Xi Rui have a bad reputation in the capital, they have never done anything to bully men, women, or children.”

“Xi Rong has also punished many children of aristocratic families who did evil and whipped many people, so she is also known as the number one tigress in the capital.”

Such a person was much better than those who were sanctimonious.

Shi Qingluo didn’t expect Xi Rong to be so tough.

“It’s so cool for a woman to do this!”

Shi Qingluo sighed: “She has lived a life that many women envy.”

Of course, the reason why Xi Rong could live like this was also because she had a strong background and could do whatever she wanted.

Xiao Hanzheng: “……”

He immediately said: “I think you are doing just fine.”

Xi Rong was too tough. He didn’t want his little wife to develop in that direction.

Shi Qingluo chuckled, “Brother Zheng, you are so funny!”

There was only one Xi Rong in this country, and her unrestrained success cannot be replicated.

Her husband’s worries were completely unnecessary.

Liang Youxiao and the other three happily ran away from home, but the capital was in turmoil.

Xi Rui was the sweetheart of the old lady of the Duke’s Mansion. After hearing that her grandson was beaten and ran away from home, the old lady was so angry that she cursed Xi Xinheng.

She grabbed her cane and gave Xi Xinheng a few beatings.

The Liang Family was much calmer, after all, Liang Youxiao had run away from home.

But Liang Mingcheng was also scolded by the old lady.

Both of them were accompanied by servants with martial arts. After the Xi family and the Liang family had about it, they roughly guessed that the two should have gone to Nanxi County, so they left it alone.

Unexpectedly, news soon came from the palace that the two bastards had brought Xi Rong with them.

This news shocked both Xi Xinheng and Liang Mingcheng. They scolded their bastard son again and again and suddenly felt that they had been beaten lightly before.

So they immediately went to the palace to report the news.

The Empress Dowager and the Emperor looked as if they were relieved after listening to their words.

Xi Xinheng and the others also discovered that the Empress Dowager, who was said to be seriously ill, looked good.

Their heart skipped a beat and fell into deep thoughts that the Emperor and the Empress Dowager might be causing trouble.

Both of them were smart people. They couldn’t help but think of the prince in the frontier fiefdom.

“Since Rongrong went out to play with the two young masters of your house, then I can rest assured.”

The Empress Dowager held a string of Buddhist beads in her hand and moved them gently: “She has been in the capital for a long time. It would be good for her to go out and get some fresh air.”

Her granddaughter has secret guards sent by her son to protect her, so she doesn’t have to worry about safety.

They had received the news a long time ago. They knew that Xi Rong followed Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao. News about them came every day.

Xi Xinheng: “……”

Liang Mingcheng: “……”

We are worried!

If something goes wrong with that female devil, the two bastards will be in trouble.

Next time, when they come back, they might as well break the legs of these two bastards.

The Emperor thought for a while and said: “Since they have gone to Nanxi County, let them go.”

He has received a lot of news from Nanxi County recently.

Of course, he knew about the existence of Shi Qingluo, the Old Immortal Master’s disciple.

There was also the work of the young couple in Nanxi County in the matter of Xiao Yuanshi.

It would be a good idea if his niece found out what happened at that time.

Although his niece was usually a bit naughty, she was smart.

Liang Mingcheng couldn’t help but ask: “Your Majesty, won’t you send someone to bring them back?”

“No need, let them play.”

The Emperor waved his hand and continued: “I will send a message to Mo Qingling to look after them.”

He thought for a while and added: “Just announce to the outside world that Rong’er is looking for the divine doctor apprentice for the Empress Dowager.”

The Empress Dowager also said: “Yes, Rong’er is a good child. When she saw that I was sick, she was so worried that she left the capital to find the apprentice of a divine doctor and invite him to treat me.”

Xi Xinheng: “……”

Liang Mingcheng: “……”

If Xi Rong is a good child, then our bastard sons are not dandies.

The Empress Dowager was getting better and better at telling lies with her eyes open.

Aren’t they just trying to cover up Xi Rong’s sneaking out for fun? Fortunately, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor came up with such a good excuse.

Xi Xinheng smiled and said: “Yes, Marquis Nanshan has always been a good and filial child.”

Liang Mingcheng on the side said: “……”

This is also a shameless person, and he can boast.

As for him, what else can he do but follow the flow?

“The Marquis has a filial heart, and it should indeed be fulfilled.”

“I will ask someone to send a message to my incompetent son, asking him to take good care of the Marquis, and help to find the apprentice of the divine doctor.”

Seeing that the two of them were on the right track, both the Empress Dowager and the Emperor were satisfied.

The Empress Dowager raised her hand and stroked her head, “I feel a little unwell, you can leave now.”

Both Xi Xinheng and Xi Xinheng knew what was going on, which was a hint that they could not go out to talk about the Empress Dowager’s physical condition.

The two nodded knowingly, “Yes!”

*

On the other side, the General’s Mansion.

Ge Chunru handed Xiao Yuanshi a letter when he came to see her.

“General, I originally asked people to go to Nanxi County to see if we could find a good wife for Hanzheng, but who knew that we found this.”

She looked embarrassed: “After much thought, I still can’t hide it from you.”

Xiao Yuanshi took the letter and opened it. After reading it, his face became dark and gloomy: “You bastard, you are simply a bastard.”

The letter contains one thing, the whole story of how the Wu Family was plotted by the Shi Family.

After reading it, he couldn’t help but think of what happened to him. Such similarities couldn’t be a coincidence.

That means one thing. His bad daughter-in-law had a hand in plotting against him.
