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

"Aristocratic families always pay attention to matching up with each other. The only prominent person in the Xie family is Prince Xie. Although Madam Xie and her family live in Prince Xie's mansion, it is not legitimate after all. When Prince Xie gets married and has children, Madam Xie and her family will have no reason to continue living here."

Having said this, Cui Shuyan's expression suddenly paused.

She grabbed Qiaoya's hand and asked, "Qiaoya, I remember you said before that the reason why Prince Xie hasn't married yet is because he has a reputation of being unlucky in marriage?"

"Yeah, that's what people outside say."

Cui Shuyan suddenly understood.

She knew why Madam Xie and Xie Shaohang wanted to paralyze Xie Xingyuan in the previous life.

Because, if Xie Xingyuan was a good person, even if he had a reputation for being unlucky in marriage, he would still get married and have children sooner or later.

Once Xie Xingyuan gets married and has children, it will be inappropriate for their entire family to continue living in the palace.

In order to avoid being driven away, they must come up with a permanent solution.

It is far from enough to just let Xie Xingyuan have the reputation of being a wife-killer.

Only when he dies will the Xie family truly belong to them.

However, what Cui Shuyan didn't understand was that although Xie Shaohang was on the list and became an official in his previous life, he was not a high-ranking official at the beginning. In such a situation, if he had the help of Xie Xingyuan, Xie Shaohang would only move faster and more steadily.

So, in this situation, paralyzing Xie Xingyuan was not a wise decision.

What's more, Cui Shuyan remembered that at this time in his previous life, Xie Xingyuan had no plans to get married.

With Xie Shaohang's profit-seeking personality, he would not let go of Xie Xingyuan, his helper, unless he had a more suitable option.

Thinking about how Xie Chunya was prevented from marrying Cheng Yuanlong in her previous life and ended up marrying into a more prominent family, Cui Shuyan had a vague feeling that the Xie family must have other helpers.

To a certain extent, this help is comparable to that of Xie Xingyuan.

Otherwise, they would not easily give up Xie Xingyuan as their helper.

However, in her previous life, she was trapped in the inner house and had no idea if the Xie family had any other help.

I can find out more about it in the future.

Now, it can be confirmed that the Anping Marquisate has no intention of marrying into the Xie family.

In the previous life, the Anping Marquisate had this intention after Xie Shaohang was on the list.

In this life, the eldest branch of the Xie family has nothing outstanding about them. How could a wealthy and prominent family like the Anping Marquis's Mansion be willing to marry into the family?

No matter how anxious Madam Xie was, Cui Shuyan remained calm.

But when she finished her bath and sent Qiao Ya away and went into the inner room to sleep, she saw someone sitting in the room.

The man was sitting with his back to her. He had broad shoulders and must be a tall man.

Cui Shuyan's heart immediately rose to her throat. She grabbed the candlestick next to her and slowly moved closer, intending to take the enemy by surprise.

However, just as the candlestick in her hand was about to hit the man's back of the head, he suddenly turned around and grabbed her wrist.

In an instant, Cui Shuyan's breathing stopped.

But at this moment, he saw that the person in front of him was none other than Xie Xingyuan.

Cui Shuyan suddenly felt relieved, and at the same time, the candlestick in her hand was taken over by Xie Xingyuan.

At this moment, the two were very close.

She was about to speak when she felt a discomfort in her throat.

She quickly pushed Xie Xingyuan away, held onto the table beside her, and began to dry heave.

"Sorry, I scared you."

Xie Xingyuan stepped forward and wanted to pat Cui Shuyan on the back, but Cui Shuyan dodged him.

Cui Shuyan suppressed her discomfort and said, "Uncle, why are you here so late at night?"

"I ate too much, so I came out to digest the food."

These words made Cui Shuyan's eyes widen in shock.

Doesn't this person think before speaking?

Cui Shuyan wanted to refute him, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she vomited again.

Xie Xingyuan stood there, lost in thought: Has his appearance become so disgusting?

Seeing Cui Shuyan vomiting, Xie Xingyuan couldn't say what he wanted to say, so he could only pour her a cup of tea.

But even after drinking a cup of warm tea, Cui Shuyan still felt nauseous.

But I couldn't vomit anything.

"Don't get excited, I'm leaving now."

Cui Shuyan was speechless. Fortunately, after Xie Xingyuan left, her mood gradually stabilized and she no longer nauseated so frequently.

After regaining her composure, Cui Shuyan felt secretly annoyed.

Originally, today was a good opportunity to discuss with Xie Xingyuan how his reputation of being a wife-killer spread, and to guide him to become suspicious of Madam Xie.

Who would have thought that her body was so uncooperative. Why did she vomit for no reason?

It was already late at night, and Cui Shuyan had calmed down. She wanted to get to the bottom of the matter.

She came to the room where Qiao Ya lived, and asked Shi Liu to go down the secret passage with her, all the way to the bottom of Xie Xingyuan's bathroom.

This time, Cui Shuyan was very cautious. She asked Shi Liu to go up and pass on the message first. Only after getting permission did she go up.

After seeing Xie Xingyuan, Cui Shuyan politely said, "I hope you will forgive me for disturbing you so late at night, great uncle."

"Ah."

Cui Shuyan was just about to ask him about his reputation as a wife-killer when she felt her stomach churning and she couldn't help vomiting.

The terrible thing is, the more she tried to restrain herself, the bigger her reaction became.

In the end, nothing could be said.

Helplessly, Cui Shuyan had to turn back the way she came.

Strangely enough, when I returned to my room, everything was fine again.

Everything was fine with her, but Xie Xingyuan was puzzled.

He looked at himself in the mirror late at night, left and right, but couldn't figure out what was so disgusting about himself.

The noise alarmed Mr. Wen.

When Mr. Wen came in, he saw Xie Xingyuan holding a mirror and looking at his face. He couldn't help but wonder, "Your Majesty, are you obsessed with your appearance?"

Xie Xingyuan rolled his eyes at him, put down the mirror, and asked seriously, "Does this face of mine make you want to vomit?"

"How is that possible? Your Majesty has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and you are very handsome. Even if Pan An were reborn, he couldn't compare to you in the slightest." As he spoke, Mr. Wen approached with a somewhat flattering smile, "Your Majesty, don't you just want to hear your subordinates praise you? Do you have to beat around the bush?"

"Get out! Am I so childish?" As he said that, Xie Xingyuan pushed Mr. Wen and told him that Cui Shuyan vomited when she saw him.

After listening to this, Mr. Wen was thoughtful: "You mean, Cui vomited when she saw you, but she couldn't vomit anything?"

"Yes."

After getting a positive answer, Mr. Wen stretched out his fingers to count, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Most likely Cui is..."

Mr. Wen did not say the last three words out loud, but just mouthed them to Xie Xingyuan.

Xie Xingyuan's eyes widened instantly.

……

After getting up early the next day, Cui Shuyan did not feel any discomfort.

To her surprise, just after she had breakfast, Doctor He came to teach her how to take a pulse.

While teaching, Cui Shuyan and Doctor He couldn't help but take each other's pulse.

Finally, Doctor He smiled and said, "Why don't you check your own pulse to see if our judgments are consistent."

Cui Shuyan responded with a smile, but as soon as she touched her pulse, she was stunned.

This pulse...
