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

When he heard that there was an important matter to discuss and that Xie Xingyuan was present in person, Duke Zhao could no longer sit still. He got up and left without even planning to eat.

Zhao Wenbin and Zhao Wenkai hurried to catch up.

Duke Zhao took two steps forward and looked back at Zhao Wenbin: "You stay. Don't go. It will be embarrassing if you go."

"No, father!" Zhao Wenbin raised his right hand and said, "Father, I promise that I will never cause any trouble for you!"

Duke Zhao then snorted coldly: "If you dare to make a mistake in front of Prince Xie, he will kick you away without me having to do anything!"

You know, that person is a person who doesn't tolerate any sand in his eyes.

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhao Wenbin responded repeatedly, feeling very excited.

The question that has been bothering him for a day and a night is about to be answered. How can he not be excited?

He felt that Xie Xingyuan must have come here to propose marriage.

He was really curious about which sister of his Xie Xingyuan had taken a fancy to.

Zhao Wenbin probably knew why Xie Xingyuan came, but Duke Zhao didn't know.

He walked very quickly along the way, and even went over in his mind all the tasks he had done during that period. After confirming that nothing had gone wrong, he straightened his back a little and stepped into the main hall.

At this time, Xie Xingyuan had already sat down in the main hall.

Seeing Duke Zhao coming in, Xie Xingyuan immediately stood up to greet him, and said very politely: "Duke, sorry to bother you."

Duke Zhao was stunned, rubbed his eyes, and stepped back.

Rub your eyes again and step back again.

He even pulled Zhao Wenbin over and asked, "Is this Prince Xie?"

Zhao Wenbin found it a little funny.

Just now I was scolding him for being unstable, but now look what happens, isn't he the same as a father?

"You are not mistaken, it is Prince Xie." Zhao Wenbin said, trying hard to suppress his smile.

"Hiss..." Duke Zhao took a breath, walked forward, and bowed politely, "Thank you, Your Majesty. You are so polite. Please take a seat."

"Please take a seat." Xie Xingyuan was more polite than him.

Duke Zhao secretly bit the tip of his tongue. It hurt. It seemed that he was not dreaming.

But the question is, when has Xie Xingyuan ever been so polite to anyone?

He clearly remembered that on the Mid-Autumn Festival two years ago, he was in a hurry to go home and celebrate the festival with his family, so he was a little anxious when writing the document and missed a word.

As a result, because of this, Xie Xingyuan scolded him severely.

It's a pity that he is an old man in his forties or fifties, but he was scolded like a quail.

Of course, he deserves to be scolded.

Because the word he omitted on the document was a number. If the dam was really built according to the document he wrote, it would be a disaster.

But even though he was wrong, Prince Xie's attitude was too bad.

From then on, he would hide whenever he saw Xie Xingyuan from a distance, for fear that Xie Xingyuan would catch him.

But now, Xie Xingyuan was so polite to him, which made him even more frightened.

Could this kid be playing tricks on him?

But Xie Xingyuan asked him to sit down, and it seemed unreasonable for him not to sit down.

Helplessly, Duke Zhao had to sit down.

However, although he sat down, he only dared to put his butt just a little bit against the edge of the chair, so that when Xie Xingyuan got angry, he could stand up immediately.

Who would have thought that Xie Xingyuan was polite to him, and was also polite to Zhao Wenbin and Zhao Wenkai: "You two, please take a seat."

Looking at his expression, he wouldn't sit down if Zhao Wenbin and Zhao Wenkai didn't.

Zhao Wenbin probably guessed that Xie Xingyuan was here to propose marriage, so he sat down quietly.

After all, outside, Xie Xingyuan is a prince, and they have to show respect to him.

But now we are at home, and Xie Xingyuan is here to propose marriage, so that’s a different matter.

When he sat down, Duke Zhao's heart was in his throat.

He said that his eldest son seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit today and was not acting normally.

It would be fine if he dropped his chopsticks while eating, but how dare he sit down before Prince Xie did?

Terrible!

Damn it!

At this moment, Duke Zhao even suspected that he had rebelled. Otherwise, why would Xie Xingyuan be so abnormal?

He instinctively felt that Xie Xingyuan was going to settle accounts with him.

As for what account to settle, he really couldn't figure it out.

In short, Xie Xingyuan's move was a way of using courtesy before force, there was nothing wrong with that!

When Duke Zhao was struggling with his conscience, Xie Xingyuan spoke up, "Duke, I came here today with a small gift. Please accept it."

After saying that, he waved his hand toward the outside, and a group of people came in carrying gifts.

That’s right, a group of people.

Judging from the effort they put in lifting the things, the things they were carrying were quite heavy.

When the red cloth was lifted, there were night-shining pearls, pearls, corals...

Each and every one of them is a good thing, and looks to be in excellent condition and worth a lot of money.

A whole box of each!

A box!

Duke Zhao was startled and immediately jumped up from his chair, running towards Zhao Wenbin and Zhao Wenkai.

After he passed by, he slapped everyone on the forehead and asked sharply, "Who? Which one of you?"

Zhao Wenbin and Zhao Wenkai were both shocked: "Father, what are you talking about?"

Duke Zhao pounded his chest and said bitterly, "Prince Xie has brought the gifts to our door, so you two are still not going to tell the truth?"

"What truth are you telling?" Zhao Wenkai asked immediately.

The slap in the face wasn't a big deal, but he got hit on the forehead again, causing him to grimace in pain.

"Who? Which of you two was involved in corruption and bribery? Tell me!"

Zhao Wenbin and Zhao Wenkai were both confused. They looked at each other, wondering what was wrong with their old father.

Seeing this, Duke Zhao's fingers began to tremble: "No one admits it. Could it be that both of you have taken bribes? Oh my God, oh my God..."

As he spoke, Duke Zhao almost couldn't stand still.

Fortunately, someone helped me.

Duke Zhao thought the person who helped him was his servant, so he pushed him away.

He doesn't need anyone's help, he can still hold on.

But this push didn't move.

He turned around and saw that the person holding him was Xie Xingyuan.

That was not all. Xie Xingyuan's expression was particularly gentle, not at all like his previous cold look.

In a flash, Duke Zhao finally understood why Xie Xingyuan was so polite to him today.

It turns out that both of his sons were corrupt and accepted bribes, and Prince Xie is carrying things to punish them.

Thank you Prince for being so polite to him, it shows that you totally sympathize with him!

God have pity on him. At this age, both of his sons have committed crimes. This is really the end of his life!

For a moment, Duke Zhao beat his chest and stamped his feet: "Your Majesty, there is no need to beat around the bush. Just tell me directly, which of these two brats was corrupt and accepted bribes?"

Xie Xingyuan was confused: "Did your son take bribes?"

Zhao Wenbin and Zhao Wenkai immediately said, "No, no, that's not the case!"

Duke Zhao was also confused: "Aren't the things you had people carry here the things they embezzled?"

Xie Xingyuan laughed in silence: "Of course not. Duke, I came here today to propose marriage."
