After Xie Yuantang finished speaking, the whole audience fell into awkward silence.

Everyone's eyes were on Xie Zhaoqing, and Xie's mother was looking at her son eagerly.

The filial father Xie Zhaoqing lowered his head in silence for a moment, then resolutely turned around, bent down, and helped old lady Xie up with his own hands.

"Um..."

Mother Xie looked at her son with emotion. She knew that her son would not ignore her life or death!

"Someone is coming..."

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Xie Zhaoqing spoke slowly: "The old lady is seriously ill, it is not suitable for her to go out and talk too much, take her back to rest."

“Mm! Mm…”

Old Madam Xie was startled and waved her hands around.

Let her go home and rest? And also told her not to go out or talk too much?

This is locking her up!

Old Madam Xie was so anxious that she jumped up and down, and reached out to pull the mousetrap, but was held down by Xie Zhaoqing.

"Mother."

Xie Zhaoqing looked at her with a sullen face: "Do you want your whole family to die?"

Madam Xie was startled.

Xie Zhaoqing smiled slightly, but his eyes were cold and ruthless: "My son knows that my mother has always been considerate of me. I hope my mother can be patient for me this time."

Madam Xie: “…”

She looked at her son who looked like a decent human being in front of her, and suddenly felt a little chilled.

She has been a scoundrel all her life, isn't it all for him?

As a result, just because he heard a few words from a nine-year-old girl, he was so scared that he pushed her, his own mother, out!

Xie Yuantang watched this scene from the side and said sarcastically, "Dad, you are so filial!"

Xie Zhaoqing: “…”

Pretending not to hear Xie Yuantang's ridicule, Xie Zhaoqing finished speaking, turned his head and looked at Wei Lian, and ordered in a deep voice: "You should go back too. His Highness is here, so you must not act unruly. Besides, Yunwan and Yuantang don't like noise. Don't bother them on weekdays, otherwise I will not let you off easily!"

"Dad, how could you do this? It was obviously Xie Yuantang, that bitch..."

"Snapped!"

Xie Yumo was so angry that she wanted to curse, but before she could say anything, Xie Zhaoqing slapped her in the face!

"what!"

Xie Yumo's already swollen face was immediately covered in blood, and she staggered and fell into Wei Lian's arms.

"Master, how can you treat Yumo like this? She is so young..."

Wei Lian looked at her daughter with heartache, but when she looked up she was met with Xie Zhaoqing's cold face.

Xie Zhaoqing said in a gloomy voice: "She is so young, where did she learn those dirty words? It shows that you didn't teach her well on weekdays!"

"Why don't you get out of here and reflect on your mistakes!"

Wei Lian hugged her daughter, looked at the ruthless Xie Zhaoqing, gritted her teeth and left in shame.

After they all left, Xie Zhaoqing clenched his fists, took a deep breath, turned around, and gave a fake fatherly smile.

"Yuan Tang, your father has punished them. Are you satisfied now?"

Xie Yuantang raised his eyebrows: "I don't understand what you are saying. It sounds like I am deliberately making things difficult for you. In fact, I don't mind reporting it to the police. We should interrogate them when necessary and find evidence when necessary. The right and wrong will become clear in due time."

"Yuan Tang is right."

Yan Guanqing spoke at the right time: "I have been watching here for a long time, and I have seen the prime minister's family crying out for injustice, saying things like 'buried alive, robbed for money, and disfigured', but there is one thing that is unclear."

"According to what they said, Yuan Tang dug a pit at the gate of the courtyard. Regardless of whether there was such a pit or not, what I am confused about is why they came to this small courtyard in the middle of the night. This is the cause. Only when there is a cause can there be a result."

"I think if we let the government interrogate him, we will know the reason. What do you think, Prime Minister?"

Xie Zhaoqing: “…”

What does he think?

He thought it wasn't possible!

Without even asking, Xie Zhaoqing knew that Wei Lian and the others must have been holding back their farts last night!

That's why he fell into Xie Yuantang's trap!

But can this be discussed? Can it be checked?

After checking, he is still the one who is embarrassed!

Xie Zhaoqing looked at Yan Guanqing coldly.

He originally wanted to put the blame on Xie Yuantang, and deliberately placed his mother, Wei Lian and others under house arrest without asking any questions or investigating. Then the matter would become "Leng Yunwan and Xie Yuantang, mother and daughter, bullied the women in the Xie family."

As the head of the family, he gave in "to make amends to the mother and daughter" and "for the peace of the entire Xie family."

But now, Xie Yuantang and Yan Guanqing actually noticed his little thoughts and refused to take the blame!

Xie Zhaoqing's face was gloomy, realizing that as long as Yan Guanqing was here, he would not let Xie Yuantang down in the slightest!

"Then what should we do according to what the Grand Tutor said?" Xie Zhaoqing asked unhappily.

Yan Guanqing stood up and said with a smile, "It's very simple. Interrogate the servants one by one last night and keep a record of what happened, so that if anyone wants to make a fuss about it in the future."

He glanced at Xie Yuantang and said gently, "It is too cruel to let a nine-year-old child bear the crime of being buried alive, robbing money and disfigured."

After saying that, he turned to look at Xie Zhaoqing and said, "If the Prime Minister can't do this, I can help..."

"no need!"

Before he could finish, Xie Zhaoqing interrupted him and said, "This is my family affair. I will do it myself. You don't need to worry about it, Master."

"Yeah, don't worry, uncle. I'm here."

Situ Yan smiled, looked at Xie Zhaoqing and said, "After they sign and seal, I will keep all the files and then give them to uncle to check if there are any problems."

Xie Zhaoqing: “…”

If Xie Yuantang had said this, he could have ignored it.

But if it was Situ Yan, he would have to do it!

Damn, why is this idiot becoming more and more difficult to deal with?

Xie Zhaoqing's face turned pale and he had no mood to stay any longer. He snorted coldly and turned away.

Watching him walk away, Leng Yunchao laughed out loud and ruffled Xie Yuantang's hair with his big hands: "Xiao Tangtang, you are so amazing!"

"Now I don't worry about you and your daughter being bullied!"

Xie Yuantang raised his head proudly: "Of course, Tangtang will protect mother!"

"Haha! You're still showing off!"

Leng Yunchao smiled brightly, with his big hand on Xie Yuantang's head.

Seeing this scene, Situ Yan frowned, walked over and slapped his hand away unhappily: "Don't touch my head, it won't grow taller."

After saying that, she bent down, and deftly used her slender fingers to tidy up Xie Yuantang's hair, muttering, "Your hair is messed up."

Leng Yunchao: “…”

After helping Xie Yuantang to fix his hair, Situ Yan stood up and looked at Leng Yunchao: "Uncle, you don't have to worry. I am a man and I will protect my wife and mother."

After hearing what he said, Yan Guanqing and Leng Yunchao habitually waited for him to call out "my wife's mother".

But I didn't expect that he changed his name!

Is this what you call mother?

Yan Guanqing and Leng Yunchao both looked at Leng Yunwan, but saw Leng Yunwan smiling kindly: "Yan'er is right."

Obviously he approved of Situ Yan's title.

Yan Guanqing felt a little sour in his nose. He turned to look at Leng Yunwan, raised his hand and bowed to her and said:

"Yan, thank you Miss Leng San."
