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

"Enter the palace and meet Consort Xian."

After hearing this, even after searching through all her memories of her previous life, Cui Shuyan still had no idea who this virtuous concubine was.

After all, before she got married, she was trapped in the Cui family, never leaving the front door or the back door.

After getting married, she stayed in Xie's mansion and turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside.

We can only know that she is a noble concubine in the palace from the three words "Xian Guifei".

"May I ask Uncle, Brother Xie, what is the relationship between this virtuous concubine and Madam Xie?"

"It doesn't matter." After saying that, Xie Xingyuan added, "At least on the surface, there is no connection between the two. Don't worry, I will continue to investigate."

Cui Shuyan nodded and looked at Xie Xingyuan's leg: "Have you seen a doctor for your leg?"

"Look, nothing happened."

"That's impossible." Cui Shuyan retorted directly. In his previous life, Xie Xingyuan's legs were clearly paralyzed.

"Lie down, I'll help you."

Xie Xingyuan was overjoyed, but he didn't show it on his face. He walked to the couch and lay down.

After lying down, a sweet fragrance wafted into his nose. Thinking that Cui Shuyan had also slept on this couch during the day, the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise.

Cui Shuyan was concentrating on taking his pulse and did not notice the subtle changes on his face.

After taking the pulse, Cui Shuyan frowned.

Judging from the pulse, it has clearly improved.

But Xie Xingyuan said that he had never asked anyone to look at it.

This is strange.

Then, Cui Shuyan rolled up Xie Xingyuan's trouser legs and looked at his legs carefully.

Yes, it has indeed improved.

This means that Xie Xingyuan recently asked someone to check his legs.

Thinking of this, Cui Shuyan brought the candlestick over and looked at Xie Xingyuan's legs. Seeing some tiny needle holes on his legs, she couldn't help but look at Xie Xingyuan in surprise.

"you are lying."

"Huh? What?"

"You said you had someone check it out and they said it was nothing. So how did you get the needle hole on your leg?"

Xie Xingyuan gritted his teeth secretly, thinking that he was careless.

"Maybe I was too busy recently and forgot about it." Xie Xingyuan didn't blush or feel nervous when he lied.

"Oh." Cui Shuyan responded and said nothing else.

She had nothing to say, but Xie Xingyuan did: "The new champion Luo Jinyu, is he your biological brother?"

"Yes."

"I have read his articles, which are brilliant and insightful. I plan to promote him."

"Promotion?" Cui Shuyan was surprised. "Even if you win the title of No. 1, don't you have to study in the Hanlin Academy for three years before you can be assigned an official position?"

"Generally speaking, that's right. But, the court is in need of talents right now, so I plan to start training right away."

"Is there such a thing?" Cui Shuyan began to ponder.

At this moment, the marriage between Xie Chunya and Cheng Yuanlong has not been finalized. If my brother gets an official position now, I'm afraid Madam Xie will be tempted.

She couldn't let that happen.

Can't take the risk.

Thinking of this, even though Cui Shuyan knew that what she was doing was inappropriate, she still had to say, "Brother Xie, can I ask you for a favor? If you help me do this, I can write off my original act of saving you."

"Okay, you say."

"Can my brother's appointment be delayed for a few days?"

After hearing this, Xie Xingyuan was very surprised.

He thought that Cui Shuyan would ask him to promote Luo Jinyu's official position, or ask him to let Luo Jinyu take up a position in the capital. Unexpectedly, her request was actually this.

"How late?"

Cui Shuyan thought for a moment and said, "No later than three to five days, okay?"

"Okay, I'll wait for your news."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome." As he said that, the corners of Xie Xingyuan's lips curled up uncontrollably again.

After looking at the legs and saying everything that needed to be said, Cui Shuyan was a little puzzled when she saw that Xie Xingyuan was still not leaving: "Brother Xie, do you have anything else to do?"

"No." After saying that, Xie Xingyuan accidentally bit his tongue, and he hissed in pain.

"what happened?"

"My legs hurt." Xie Xingyuan continued to lie.

"Leg pain? It's probably because of poor blood circulation. Brother Xie, lie down and I'll give you a massage."

Recently, Dr. He taught her some massage techniques, which she can use now.

Cui Shuyan’s massage is very methodical.

However, the smile on Xie Xingyuan's face was very unstructured.

It was night time and the lighting was bad, otherwise, if Cui Shuyan saw the hideous smile on Xie Xingyuan's face, she would be scared to death.

How hideous is it?

He wanted to laugh but tried hard to hold it back. His whole face showed a ferocious look with gnashing teeth, but the corners of his lips were raised and there was a smile in his eyes, which looked very strange.

To put it bluntly, Xie Xingyuan really wanted to laugh, but was afraid that laughing out loud would disturb Cui Shuyan, so he held back his laughter with great difficulty.

Cui Shuyan was completely unaware of all this.

She massaged Cui Shuyan's legs carefully, first massaging her left leg and then her right leg.

After finally finishing the massage, Cui Shuyan exhaled softly: "Thank you, brother, it's done."

"Oh." Xie Xingyuan responded, feeling that time passed so quickly.

Now, I can no longer pretend that my leg hurts.

The moment he stood up, his eyes swept across Cui Shuyan's belly. Thinking about how she was still pregnant and had just massaged his legs so hard, he wanted to slap himself twice on the spot - what a beast!

"Have you been feeling unwell recently?"

"Nothing."

It's strange, except for feeling nauseous when seeing Xie Xingyuan a few days ago, he didn't have any reaction at other times.

Originally she was worried whether there was something wrong with the baby in her belly, but after taking her pulse every day and asking Doctor He to help, they found nothing wrong, so Cui Shuyan was relieved.

Perhaps, the child knows that she is in a difficult situation, so she is so well-behaved.

"Have you ever considered divorce?"

Xie Xingyuan has asked this question before.

At that time, Cui Shuyan directly refused.

But now, she hesitated.

Now, the baby in my belly is two months old. After three months, my belly will be visible.

By then, it won’t be possible to hide it.

Now, she hasn't figured out what Xie Shaohang and others are thinking, so she doesn't dare to leak the news of her pregnancy easily.

Originally, she had no one to rely on, so she had no intention of getting divorced and leaving home to live her own life.

Now that she has a brother, she feels more relaxed.

However, even if she divorced and left the house, she had to finish the things at hand first.

After a moment of silence, Cui Shuyan asked, "Why is Brother Xie so concerned about this issue?"

"This is not the place for you."

Cui Shuyan asked directly: "Brother Xie, since you knew that it was Madam Xie who plotted against you, why didn't you do anything?"

After all, with Xie Xingyuan's status and position, he can suppress Madam Xie.

However, he did nothing.

As far as she knew, Xie Xingyuan was not someone who could swallow his anger in silence.

"As you know, if it were just her, she wouldn't have the guts to do these things."

After hearing this, Cui Shuyan understood.

Xie Xingyuan was also investigating Madam Xie.

There is no action at the moment, just because we don’t want to alert the enemy.

"Thank you, brother. If you find anything, can you share it with me?"

Under the lamp, Xie Xingyuan looked at Cui Shuyan with scrutiny. After a long while, he asked, "Cui Shuyan, what is hidden in your heart?"
