Chapter 188 Take Yuan Shi Back

That's right, from the time he saw Xia Zian appearing at the fire scene in the side room, to the new house on fire, he suspected that Xia Zian set the fire.

But as guessed before, Xia Zian couldn't set off such a big fire by himself.

Patrol the scene environment, lock the door, pour oil, lock the timing, and then set fire, this series cannot be completed by a weak woman alone.

However, he was still skeptical, because, in his opinion, it was impossible for Xia Zian to escape from the side room during the fire, but she did, and even brought Mrs. Liang out.

Ximen Xiaoyue's expression changed, "You suspect it's her? But is it possible?"

"Impossible, but she escaped from the fire in the side room, which is impossible in the eyes of everyone."

Ximen Xiaoyue said: "I don't believe she can escape, maybe she left with Mrs. Liang when the fire broke out."

"No, I didn't leave. Aunt Cuiyu kept watching. Before the fire broke out, she and Liang Shi Xiaquan were indeed in the side room. Moreover, Xi Niang can also testify that Xi Niang was sent out to pour water by her to avoid a fire. robbery."

"How is this possible? From the side of the new house, I can see that the fire is indeed spreading very quickly. How could she escape?" Ximen Xiaoyue felt inconceivable.

Prime Minister Xia looked at Ximen Xiaoyue, and wanted to say something, but it was not suitable to say it in front of Ximen Xiaoyue.

Perhaps he really underestimated this daughter, her ability and intelligence surpassed his imagination, if, without Chen Linglong, it was him and Yuan Shi all along, would he have such an intelligent daughter?

If she hadn't treated her coldly and harshly at the beginning, she probably wouldn't be separated from her now.

He has some regrets, but he doesn't want to admit it. Regret is the most useless feeling for him.

"You send her here, I want to ask her again." Ximen Xiaoyue knew that Murong Jie had already left, without any backing, what else could Xia Zian rely on?

Prime Minister Xia felt that he also needed to test Xia Zi'an, so he asked Aunt Lan Yu to invite Zi'an in person.

Let's say that after Zi'an ordered people to prepare the carriage, he returned to Xiazhi Garden.

The bridegroom of the Duke's Mansion had already left, and Second Master Ximen didn't even come to see his wife.

Mrs. Liang knew in her heart that perhaps her husband didn't know about this plan from the beginning, but now he definitely knew that he didn't dare to come because he had a guilty conscience.

"Did he say anything to Ximen Xiaoyue?" Liang asked Zian.

Zian shook his head, "I don't know."

Liang's face was a bit miserable, "Miss, can you arrange to send me back?"

"I'm going to pick up my mother, so I'll take you back on the way first," Zian looked at her, "but are you sure you don't want to go back with them?"

"You send me back to my mother's house first. There are some things that I need to understand clearly before returning to the Duke's residence." Liang said.

After dying once, she began to realize that perhaps, what she sacrificed herself in return was a ruthless and unjust sacrifice.

Is it necessary to be so stupid?

Xiao Sun came in, "Miss, Aunt Lan Yu is here and said that Master Xiang wants to see you."

"Tell her, I'm going to take my mother back to the house." Zi'an knew the reason why Prime Minister Xia wanted to see him, but he suspected that she was the one who set the fire, and wanted to test some words.

Before Zian finished speaking, Aunt Lan Yu appeared at the door, "Miss, the old lady gave an order that the zodiac signs of the eldest lady and the new lady are incompatible, and you must avoid it today and don't go back home."

Zi'an didn't raise his head, "Who told the old lady this? You let him tell me."

Aunt Lan Yu looked at Zian, "What does Missy mean?"

"It's not up to you as a servant to guess what it means. You go back and report the truth to the Prime Minister and the old lady." Zi'an packed up his things, turned to look at Aunt Lanyu, and continued: "Also, the new lady said before Xiazhiyuan, I have never consulted my mother about this matter, so let her get rid of her thoughts as soon as possible, my mother will not move out of Xiazhiyuan, but if the new wife really likes Xiazhiyuan, there is another wing in the northwest corner. I can let Xiaosun and Nanny Yang move out to live with her."

Aunt Lan Yu laughed softly, "Miss, I'm afraid you can't let it be your decision. This matter has been settled long ago. The old lady and the Prime Minister also agreed. Originally, there was no rush to move here, but now that the new house is burned, it seems You want to move out as soon as possible, there are still many vacant houses in the mansion, the eldest lady can just look at any place she likes and move there."

Zi'an asked Xiaosun to come over and help Mrs. Liang up, without raising her head, she said calmly, "Just pretend I haven't heard that."

After speaking, he and Xiaosun helped Mrs. Liang out.

Aunt Lanyu laughed coldly, "It's extremely stupid to hit a rock with an egg!"

Zian pretended not to hear it, and continued to walk outside.

Aunt Lanyu said in a strange way: "Since the young lady is determined to go her own way, the servant has no choice but to go back to the old lady and the prime minister truthfully. But if there are any consequences, the young lady should be able to bear the consequences. Don't blame the servant for not warning you first."

Liang asked Zi'an, "The servants in the mansion always treat you like this?"

"Didn't Madam know earlier?" Zian asked sarcastically.

Mrs. Liang was silent for a moment, "I don't know much about your Xiangfu. I'm sorry. I almost hurt you and your servant before. I heard Ximen Xiaoyue say that you were born on her wedding day. Nao, if you make her uncomfortable in front of so many guests, I think you have ulterior motives and a vicious heart."

"Really?" Zi'an was noncommittal, no matter what Liang's attitude was, he had indeed hurt Longan.

"I didn't say these words because you saved me. I knew that I was ruthless and domineering, so people in the Duke's Mansion didn't like me. No matter how much I did for them, they were grateful on the surface. Curse me behind my back, I don't ask you to forgive me, I just..."

Mrs. Liang was silent for a while, and did not continue.

She just didn't know what to do, completely lost her direction and was very confused.

She knew that for the Duke's Mansion, if they could get rid of Xia Zian for Ximen Xiaoyue, they would be willing to sacrifice themselves, so even if they went back to the mansion to talk about this matter, the Duke would not sympathize with her, let alone Stand up for yourself.

Nothing is more important than profit.

When Aunt Lan Yu went back to Xiaoxiang Garden, the old lady also came over, sitting by the bed and greeting Ximen Xiaoyue.

"Where's the person?" Prime Minister Xia asked when Aunt Lan Yu came back alone.

Aunt Lan Yu said: "Returning to Master Xiang, the eldest lady said that she is going to pick up the eldest lady, so she has no time to come and see you."

Ximen Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, and then she was slightly annoyed, "To pick up Mrs. Yuan? Didn't it be agreed? She won't be able to return home today."

"The maidservant also told the eldest lady the same way, but the eldest lady said, who said this absurd sentence? Let that person tell her. Moreover, the eldest lady asked the servant girl to tell the old lady and the prime minister that she would not move. Leaving the Summer Solstice Court." Aunt Lan Yu said.

Ximen Xiaoyue panicked and looked at the old lady, "Mother-in-law, we have already agreed on this matter."
