Or was it that the Jiang family deliberately allowed Concubine Jiang to grant Xie Xiu admission to the Imperial College in order to deal with him, and also let Jiang Er appear close to him, hoping to use Xie Xiu as a chess piece to deal with him?

When Xie Xiu was injured and disappeared, he was only a sixteen-year-old boy.

Having wasted so many years in the countryside, could he really calculate so much and even keep him in the dark?

Xie Yun didn't quite believe it.

He has been in the officialdom for many years. If he was deceived by Xie Xiu, wouldn't it mean that he, as a father, is blind and worse than Xie Xiu, as a son?

Xie Yun sneered disdainfully, becoming increasingly dissatisfied with Chen Fang's suspicion.

Chen Fang deliberately targeted Xie Xiu, but he could ignore it.

But she always blamed Xie Xiu for everything, affecting his judgment, which he could not tolerate!

The court is full of twists and turns, and if you are not careful, you will die without a burial place.

He would never allow Chen Fang to do anything wrong!

On the other side, Xie Zheng was about to return to Xiaoxiang Courtyard when he suddenly met Xie Yi on the road.

Looking at Xie Yi's appearance, it seemed as if he was waiting for him here specially.

He sneered in his heart and walked straight over: "Third brother, are you waiting for someone here?"

Xie Yi smiled faintly: "Yes, I am waiting here for you, big brother."

Xie Xiu raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked in confusion, "What are you waiting for me for?"

"I know that Big Brother must be very unhappy about what happened today, so I have something to say to him."

Xie Yi said sincerely, "Whether big brother believes it or not, I want to tell you that the crazy woman and the Taoist priest who talked nonsense today were not my mother's doing.

In fact, I have always suspected that there is an enemy hidden in the mansion that we are unaware of. What happened to Sister Jiaer was their masterpiece.

If no one helped, it would be impossible for Jiaer and a maid to leave the house smoothly.

This person was hiding in the dark. He first plotted against Jiaer's younger sister, causing her mother to be bedridden. Now, he took advantage of his grandfather's illness and deliberately let the old woman slander Yingying as an evil spirit so that Doctor Wang could hear it.

I suspect this person's real target is my father. However, my father has always been cautious and has never made mistakes in his official duties. The other party couldn't find any evidence against him, so they targeted the Xie family.

Although my elder brother has just returned to the capital from Biyang County, you are my father's eldest son, so I am afraid you will be more likely to be targeted by the other party.

So I hope that Big Brother can stay sober at all times and not let the person behind this take advantage of the situation and do something that will cause pain to loved ones and joy to enemies, leaving them with lifelong regrets!

At the end of his speech, Xie Yi took out a flat brocade box and handed it to Xie Xiu: "This contains a gift from mother, as well as some silver that my fourth brother and I have saved.

My grandmother is very angry now, and we are afraid that she will get sick from being angry, so we can only temporarily go along with her wishes and watch my eldest brother move out.

I hope Big Brother will be careful when he gets out. If you need anything, just tell me. As long as it's something I can do for you, I will do my best to get it done for you!

With a sincere look on his face, he handed the brocade box to Xie Xiu and bowed deeply to him, showing the proper attitude of a younger brother.

Seeing this, Xie Xiu patted his shoulder with a look of relief on his face, "I'm glad you thought of this. If there really is someone plotting behind this, no matter who that person is, I won't let him go!

I'll take these things. I still have to move so I can get everything settled before dark. So I won't say any more. When we return to the Imperial College tomorrow, we brothers can talk it over in detail!"

"Alright! If we brothers can put aside our past grudges and work together, we will definitely be able to find out who is behind this! Big brother has something to do, so I won't bother you anymore. Please, big brother!"

"Excuse me."

Xie Xiu smiled and bowed to him, then strode away with the brocade box.

Xie Yi stood there, watching his figure walking further and further away, and then returned to Du Hengyuan.
