Chapter 543 - 543: Overwhelmed by Flattery
Xi 12th stood up angrily, indicating that he was on the same side as Cai Erlang. “You’re clearly the one who’s spouting nonsense. Don’t rely on the Xie family’s power to pester me!””Xie Pushe, aren’t you going to do anything?””
Xie Xian, who had been called out, tapped the table lightly with his fingers. Qing Feng then moved aside, allowing Xie Xian to reveal his face.
He was the only one sitting in the room. The others were all ready to fight. However, Xie Xian’s ice-cold gaze was enough to kill these little gossipers in an instant.
If he wanted to be unreasonable, he would play to the end. In fact, he really wanted to see them fight.
What kind of hero was he if he only talked? The main thing was that he couldn’t argue properly, and there was no feeling of nervousness or excitement when he looked at him.
” Since both of you insist on your own words and refuse to give in, I think this will be the result even if you quarrel until night falls…”
“Why don’t we report it to the authorities?” Xie Xian said indifferently.”
Then, he looked at Qing Feng.
Qing Feng was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect Master Lang to do this. When he came back to his senses, he immediately accepted the order and left. Other than ” yes,” he didn’t say anything else.
The three people in the room were stunned on the spot.
“What do you mean, Xie Xian!” Cai Erlang was so angry that his head was about to explode.’You don’t find it embarrassing, but I do. I only approached the Xie family because we are relatives. What do you mean by this?”
Xie Xian slowly stood up, and Ming Yue hurriedly helped him up from the side.
“It means that I can’t decide. If you want to decide, go to court.”As he spoke, he walked out. Seeing that Xie Xian was about to throw his hands away, he said,”There are many things in the residence. Jiulang, auntie is giving birth. Grandmother, auntie, and auntie are at home. You don’t have to worry. Since it was someone else who came knocking on their door, they had to discuss right and wrong. Otherwise, it would be bad if they were splashed with dirty water and said that our Xie family was bullying others.”
“You, Young Master Xi, and Second Young Master Cai will go to the government to argue. If you are innocent, I want to see who dares to slander our Xie family!”
By the time he finished speaking, he had already left the room.
Xie Qing and the other two looked at each other and then looked away.
Xie Xian was willing to give up the idea of having a clear conscience.
If it was his fault, Xie Qing thought…Was she trying to push the blame onto others and not want to take the blame for him, or did she have other plans?
Of course, he had a clear conscience. However, Xie Xian didn’t know about it, after all. Therefore, if he didn’t make a decision, it would only cause trouble. His brother had directly cut him off, regardless of whether he was innocent or not.
Xie Qing,[I’ve only been in the Xie Residence for a day. What have I experienced?]
The three of them stared at each other. After a while, Ming Yue returned and said seriously,
“Master Lang is worried that you will be anxious waiting here, so he sent me to ask if you will continue to wait here for the government to come, or if our residence will send a carriage to send you over?”
The three of them were speechless.
Cai Erlang flicked his sleeves and left. This was chasing him away. If he didn’t leave, would he wait for him to do it himself?
Twelfth Young Master Xi looked at Xie Qing coldly.
“Fine, I’ll go. Why are you looking at me?” Don’t tell me you still want to hold my hand?”
“Lord Lang has instructed me to serve the Ninth Young Master.””
Xie Qing was just like his name. Her face immediately turned bright. He had always been clear about Xie Xian’s status in the Xie Family. Xie Xian was like the moon in the sky, while he was like mud on the ground. Now, it was even more so. To be able to hold such a high position at such a young age, his status in the Xie Family would definitely be even more transcendent.
As the saying goes, when a person attains the Tao, chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven. The people around Xie Xian were not simple people. No matter where they went, they would be looked up to by others.
Sometimes, they were even more powerful than them. After all, the people around them represented who they were, and not everyone could order them around.
Since Xie Xian had let Ming Yue follow him, it at least meant that he had the intention to bring up the Xie family with the Jiankang order.
With that, he was relieved.
.. He was a little overwhelmed by the unexpected favor of Xie Xian’s care.
###
After Xie Xian finished dealing with his troubles, he turned around and returned to the main house.
Cai Erlang and Xi Shier were furious. Naturally, they didn’t take the Xie family’s carriage. They came to the Xie family’s residence in their own ox-cart. They never dreamed that Xie Xian would do this to them.
Did he need to report it to the authorities?
They didn’t have servants, so didn’t they have mouths?
Cai Erlang was furious. He ran like a tiger and left Xi Twelfth far behind.
Ming Yue could only keep up with Xi Shi ‘er. She quickly walked up to him and greeted him respectfully,”
“My master has instructed me to tell young master that in order to prevent young master from using his authority to suppress him, he has already sent someone to Xi Manor to invite Chief Xi.”At this point, Ming Yue smiled.
“The dean of the Supreme Court is one of the nine ministers. The Xie and Xi families are on equal footing. Additionally, the dean of the Supreme Court is an official in the same dynasty as my master. As colleagues, he is only nobler than my master.”
After he finished speaking, he bowed politely and turned to Xie Qing’s side. The two of them left one after the other, walking away in a dignified manner.
Twelfth Xi gritted his teeth so hard that they were about to shatter.
It was better to inform Minister Xi than to inform Tingwei Xi. After all, Minister Xi was the uncle of the next room. He had always been kind to his nephew. Even if he came, he would not be harsh on him.
But speaking of his grandfather, he had an upright and unyielding temper, and he was the one who said the word at home.
Moreover, she did not like him.
Xi Twelfth knew from a young age that Chief Justice Xi didn’t like him. He could talk to any of his grandsons, but when he saw him, he was always indifferent. In the past, he was young and insensible. Later on, as he grew older, Mrs. Gu began to tell him that she blamed him for his father’s death not long after he was born and suspected that it was his fault.
He was still young and had lost his father. Although his mother doted on him and was a little arrogant, that was only in front of outsiders.
In front of Tingwei Xi, he was like a mouse that had seen a cat. He was so scared that his whole body went soft.
When he heard that Ming Yue had told his grandfather about it, Twelfth Xi’s entire heart was broken. In the past, he had never been nice to his grandfather, but this time…
Naturally, the Xie family was in the wrong, but he was not sure if Tingwei Xi would stand up for his unfavored grandson and go against the Xie family.
“Young Master, let’s go.” The servant boy at the side hesitated and went forward to persuade him. If he didn’t leave now, did he want to be planted on the Xie family’s land like a tree?
Twelfth Xi was afraid of Tingwei Xi, so how could his trusted servant not know? If he was afraid, then he shouldn’t have done this.
“It’s clearly the fault of Ninth Childe Xie. The dean of the supreme court would not blame you for it.”
That made sense.
She just didn’t know that her grandfather was unreasonable.
Xi Shi ‘er spat and said fiercely,””Xie Jiu, what kind of young master are you? He’s just a bastard from the Xie family! Is he worthy?”
