I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

"The relationship between the two is very secretive. It took me several days to find out. The two don't have any relationship on the surface, but when Concubine Xian was young, she fell into the water and was rescued by the eldest son's wife. Since then, the two have been in contact. However, it has always been in secret, and few people know about it."

It turned out to be a life-saving grace.

At this time, Xie Xingyuan added: "The virtuous concubine has a son, who is fifteen years old this year and is the sixth prince."

After hearing this, Cui Shuyan understood.

Now that the position of the crown prince has not been decided, this means that when these princes come of age, there will be a fight for the throne.

Madam Xie probably wanted to gain the credit of being a follower of the emperor, which was why she spent so much money.

If it was just a life-saving favor, the relationship between the two would not be so strong. But if their intertwined interests were involved, it would be different.

In this way, everything in the previous life makes sense.

Xie Xingyuan was an upright person who never showed favoritism or showed partiality to anyone. Therefore, he was of no help to Concubine Xian and Madam Xie.

In addition, Xie Xingyuan is not easy to fool. Under such circumstances, especially when Xie Shaohang is already on the list, it is not surprising that they killed Xie Xingyuan.

Cui Shuyan felt bad when she thought about how Xie Xingyuan ended up in his previous life.

Fortunately, now that she has lived a new life, Xie Shaohang has failed the exam, and some things have changed subtly.

At this time, Mrs. Xie came back.

Nanny Rong followed behind her, holding a box in her hand.

In front of Xie Xingyuan, Madam Xie was very humble: "Uncle, all the tokens of the housekeeper are here."

Xie Xingyuan nodded, then looked at Cui Shuyan with a serious expression: "Cui, you will take care of all the affairs in the mansion for the time being. If anyone dares to embarrass you, just go to Songhe Hall and report to me."

"Yes, great-uncle."

At this time, Mr. Wen came forward to report: "Your Majesty, Geng Shun has been brought here."

"Go to the flower hall in the outer courtyard."

This is the inner courtyard, it's not convenient to have too many people come here.

In this way, the group left the inner courtyard and came to the flower hall in the outer courtyard.

Geng Shun knelt there, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Xie Xingyuan sat in the main seat and was not in a hurry to punish him.

Mr. Wen stepped forward and reported, "Your Highness, we have already found out the origins of this group of men in black. They are hired assassins from outside. According to the leader, their mission is to break into the young lady's yard and knock her unconscious."

"Is that all?" Xie Xingyuan asked.

"To reply to Your Majesty, that's all."

Cui Shuyan sat aside and understood what was going on.

This group of men in black came here for Shi Liu, who knows Kung Fu.

After dealing with Shi Liu and making her unconscious, he would naturally give her the abortion pill.

Madam Xie's methods were indeed cruel.

Moreover, even if the truth comes out, it will not be traced back to her.

After asking Mr. Wen, Xie Xingyuan looked at Geng Shun coldly: "With your protection, so many assassins were able to sneak into the mansion. You are really capable!"

"Yes, it's my subordinates who are not doing their job well."

"Since you are not doing your job well, you don't have to sit in this position anymore." After saying that, Xie Xingyuan instructed Mr. Wen, "In the future, the position of the chief guard of the palace will be handed over to Zhou Chengdong."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Afterwards, Geng Shun was taken away.

At this time, Xie Xingyuan's gaze fell on Madam Xie's face.

Madam Xie lowered her head hastily: "Uncle, I was not strict enough in this matter. From now on, such a thing will never happen again."

Xie Xingyuan didn't look at her, he just stood up and left.

After Xie Xingyuan left, Madam Xie slowly straightened her bent back. She glanced at Cui Shuyan coldly, then stood up and left.

When they got to her own courtyard, Madam Xie was so angry that she smashed several vases: "The assassins in this assassin pavilion have always been safe and sound. How could such a mistake happen?"

Nanny Rong stepped forward and advised, "Madam, please don't get yourself hurt by being angry. There is always a chance of something happening."

"But this will not only make me lose my position as housekeeper, but also cause Geng Shun to lose his position as the chief guard. It will be difficult for me to do anything else in the future."

Aunt Rong was puzzled: "Madam, why are you doing all this tonight?"

Madam Xie opened her mouth but didn't say anything. She just mumbled it over.

When Madam Xie was furious, Cui Shuyan had already fallen asleep peacefully.

The next morning, she had just washed up and had not had time to eat breakfast when she saw Xie Chunya rushing in aggressively.

"Cui Shuyan, you are so audacious that you actually snatched my mother's housekeeper power!"

Cui Shuyan raised her head and glanced at her calmly: "Chun Ya, who is this dishonest person who is gossiping in front of you? I didn't snatch the power of housekeeper, it was forced upon me by my great uncle. If you are not satisfied with anything, just go and find my great uncle."

"you……"

Xie Chunya naturally didn't dare to go to find Xie Xingyuan.

She glared at Cui Shuyan and said, "Go find your great uncle and tell him that you can't manage the household and return the management rights to mother."

"No, I don't dare. If you dare, go ahead." As she said that, Cui Shuyan ordered people to prepare the meal because she was hungry.

At this time, an unhappy voice came from outside: "Shu Yan, how can you talk to Chun Ya like this?"

It’s Xie Shaohang.

Cui Shuyan looked over and said calmly, "My husband, how do you think I should talk to Chunya? This is really strange. I was assassinated last night and I am still in shock. Even if you didn't know about it last night, you should have heard about it this morning. After hearing about it, you didn't say a word of comfort to me, but you accused me of stealing my mother's power as the housekeeper. How can this be justified?"

Xie Shaohang was speechless for a moment.

Xie Chunya spoke quickly and said directly: "Aren't you okay?"

"Yes, I'm fine. Why, sister, are you still expecting me to be fine?"

"Shuyan, Chunya didn't mean that."

"What do you mean by not that?"

Xie Shaohang frowned: "Shuyan, why are you so aggressive now?"

"Aggressive? If you were assassinated and on the verge of death, and after waking up you didn't get any comfort but were constantly accused, could you talk to me calmly?"

Cui Shuyan changed the subject and said, "Even until now, you two have never asked who wanted to attack me? I don't blame Chunya for not asking me, but what about you? As my husband, why didn't you ask? You know, I already have your child in my belly. If there was any mistake last night, you would never see him again!"

"You, you are pregnant!" Xie Chunya was surprised.

Xie Shaohang avoided his gaze and looked away. When he realized that something was wrong, he immediately looked at Cui Shuyan, only to find that Cui Shuyan was also looking at him.

That penetrating gaze seemed to be able to see through the deepest secrets in his heart.

Suddenly, Xie Shaohang's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she had discovered it?
