On the contrary, Xie You, who was standing aside, had a bruised face and nose, and his entire body seemed to be swollen. It was obvious that he had been beaten severely.
If Xie Xiu could beat Xie You like this, he could naturally beat Xie Yi and Xie Xin like this as well.
There were no injuries on either of them, which meant that even if he hit someone, he did it very lightly.
How can he stand up for the two of them?
However, Xie Xiu really needs to change his habit of beating his younger brother at will. Now he just gives him a light punishment at home, but if he hits his younger brother like this in the Imperial College, wouldn't the whole capital city laugh at the Xie family's brothers' feud?
This is absolutely not okay!
As a Hanlin scholar, if he can't even manage his own son, how can he be qualified to be promoted to prime minister?
Xie Yun quickly found Xie Xiu.
Xie Xiu had long anticipated that if he beat Xie Yi and Xie Xin, Xie Yun and Chen Fang would definitely come to hold him accountable and become furious.
However, when he saw Xie Yun, he was still a little surprised.
He beat Xie Yi and Xie Xin like that, but why didn't Xie Yun look that angry?
It shouldn't be.
Xie Xiu was extremely surprised, but remained calm and asked, "Father, are you here to call me to task?"
Xie Yun snorted coldly: "Since you knew, why did you hit your brother? Even if you were measured this time, you can't hit people casually."
Xie Xiu: “???”
He wondered if Xie Yun was sick.
He beat Xie Yi and Xie Xin like that, and Xie Yun actually said that he was measured this time?
Although he was full of complaints, Xie Xiu said on the surface: "They are my brothers after all. How could I lose my temper when I attacked them?"
Xie Yun was so angry when he heard this that his face darkened: "How dare you say that! What on earth did they do to provoke you that you wanted to attack them?
Do you know how others will view you and the Xie family if this kind of quarrel between brothers gets out?
Xie Xiu laughed, "As the eldest brother, I was just teaching my ignorant younger brother a lesson. How can that be considered a quarrel between brothers?"
This made Xie Yun even angrier. Just as he was about to yell, he heard Xie Xiu say, "Besides, isn't father worried that Concubine Jiang's grace in allowing me to study at the Imperial College will tarnish the reputation of the Xie family?
If I don't get along with my brothers, even if Noble Concubine Jiang wants to drag the Xie family into trouble, my father can use this as an excuse to expel me from the family. Why should I worry about Noble Concubine Jiang's schemes anymore?"
"Are you really going to do this?" Xie Yun looked at him deeply. "You should know that if you do this, you will not have a good reputation in the future."
Xie Xiu said with a righteous look on his face, "I have been away from home for many years and have not been able to be filial to my elders or be friendly to my younger brothers and sisters.
If sacrificing my reputation can save the entire Xie family, why wouldn't I do it?
In my opinion, Imperial Concubine Jiang is currently enjoying the Emperor's favor, so it's not appropriate to make an enemy of her. Otherwise, if she deliberately seeks revenge and obstructs my father's advancement, it will inevitably cause endless trouble in the future.
It would be better if I deliberately expressed my dissatisfaction with my father, mother, and brothers, and pretended to surrender to Concubine Jiang. However, my father and mother were afraid of Concubine Jiang's power and dared not speak out.
In this way, Concubine Jiang felt that she had gotten an advantage and had seen the joke of the Xie family, so she naturally would not make things difficult for her father's promotion.
I wonder what father thinks?"
These words went straight into Xie Yun's heart, making him swallow back all the anger that was stuck in his throat.
He had this thought in mind when Xie Xiu mentioned the matter of Concubine Jiang giving Enrong before, but he didn't dare to tell Xie Xiu directly, for fear that Xie Xiu would think too much and really feel resentment towards him.
So he specifically sought out Chen Fang to discuss the matter, intending to give Xie Xiu some benefits first, and then mention this matter to him, so that Xie Xiu would agree obediently.
Who would have thought that Xie Xiu would actually bring it up on his own initiative.
Xie Yun was excited, but he couldn't help but feel suspicious: Was Xie Xiu sincere, or was he trying to take advantage of the situation?
