My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Xiao Baoxin was amused by Xie Wanâs tone.âYou donât need to feel it at all. You can tell from Third Uncleâs face.ââ
That old face was filled with the word âominous.â
Xie Wan shrugged.âYou know, thereâs no such thing as peace in all families. Every family was like this. When they pressed the lid of the pot, the ladle would rise. One thing after another always happened. Third Uncle was obviously either a pot lid or a ladle. Only he always had this or that matter.â
After confirming with her eyes, she realized that her husband and her brother were blood-related. Even their mouths were so vicious. They did not show any mercy when they said that they were family.
The two sisters-in-law didnât go to see Xie Xian, so they couldnât snatch the opportunity. Looking at Chancellor Xieâs posture, it was obvious that something big had happened, and that wasnât something that could be settled in a short period of time.
âGuess what it is?â Xie Wan was more curious than ever.
Xiao Baoxin was also curious, but he couldnât take the initiative to ask around. âItâs not about the Cheng Corporation⦠Itâs just an official matter, right?â
The two of them asked Tang Li to brew a pot of tea and chatted while drinking. No one could guess what could make Chancellor Xie so anxious that he didnât even care about his demeanor.
Just as they were talking, they saw Cai Wei come in to deliver some desserts, only then did they know that Xie Xian had arrived at the residence.
The two of them looked at each other. It seemed to be quite serious.
###
Actually, it wasnât very serious. Everything was as Xie Xian had expected.
Today, he was taking a break, while Chancellor Xie was besieged by the imperial censors, scolding him for not cultivating his personal morality, for being immoral, for spoiling his mistress, for destroying his wife, and so on.
Long Yan was furious and the court dismissed him from his post.
Chancellor Xie was a little excited because of the previous nightâs âGimenderâ. He thought that when he returned to the residence, he would at least force Mother Xie to bring Madam Cheng into the residence. In an instant, it was as if he was woken up by a basin of stinky foot washing water.
Why was he dismissed?
Why did he kill his wife? He didnât kill her at all. He never mentioned anything about divorcing his wife. He didnât even think about it. Why did he put sh * t on him?
That Imperial Censor Zhongcheng was still the in-laws âyounger brother, so he was also in-laws. Why did he side with outsiders and attack him together with others? Was there any meaning of sharing the same boat, one loss, one glory?
Chancellor Xie only came back to his senses after being dragged out of the court. It was as if he had been struck by lightning seventeen or eighteen times and he instantly woke up.
His nephew was highly regarded by Emperor Yu Heng. If there was any room for negotiation, he could only think of a solution from his nephew.
He was almost forty years old and was only made Chancellor in the second half of last year. He had only been at the peak of his life for half a year, but he was actually dismissed from his post?!
He was probably the chancellor who had been in office for the shortest time, and he had lost all his face.
And in such a disgraceful way!
Because of the relationship between men and women!
Hence, he rushed back to the residence to look for Xie Xian. Why? He was his nephew, and it was his father-in-lawâs younger brother who took the lead to get him to join the ginseng!
âWeâre family, how could he do this? Didnât you see the memorial he wrote with his subordinates? He scolded me so badly. Weâre all relatives.â
âXuanhui, think of a way for Third Uncle. See if thereâs a way to put in a good word for him with the Emperor and help Third Uncle.â
Xie Xian was about to burst out laughing. He wanted him to think of a way to get Imperial Censor Xiao involved. Who was he trying to beat up?
Without Imperial Censor Xiao, he wouldnât have been dismissed?
It meant that even if he had to clean up Imperial Censor Xiaoâs mess, he had to resolve this matter satisfactorilyâ¦With such a reason, would Third Uncle dare to be more stupid?
âThe job of the censor is to investigate people. Such a big thing happened in Jiankang City. If he doesnât investigate people, he will be involved.â
You really canât blame him for this. Who asked you to do such a thing?
âThen what do you think we should do?â Chancellor Xie-
No, he was now the real Third Master Xie. He no longer had an official position. âIâm almost forty. Itâs fine if 1 lose my official position, but the way I lose it is too embarrassing.â
He did not dare to ask Xie Xian to think of a way out. It would be best if he could immediately be reinstated.
Not to mention that his nephew was a minister, even the emperor would not change his orders so frequently. However, if he did not get an explanation, he felt that he would sink like this and would never be able to rise again.
âI will go and find out the emperorâs intentions, Third Uncle need not worry.â
Usually, Xie Xian was indifferent to everything. He had a cold demeanor that didnât care about anything. Third Master Xie especially couldnât stand it. Who are you talking to?
However, Xie Xian still had this attitude today, and he felt inexplicably at ease. Xie Xian was so calm, which meant that this was not a problem.
âThird Uncle, wait for my news.â
The uncle and nephew left Rong An Hall after they finished talking. One returned to the third house, and the other left the residence.
However, Xie Xian did not enter the palace to meet the Emperor. Instead, he went to the Pan Residence to look for Pan Shuo and meet his nephew, the son of a concubine.
Although he was called his nephew, he was actually not much younger than him. He was the same age as Xie Xian, but he was not as tall, handsome, or had a prominent family background as Xie Xian.
His talent and knowledge were not bad, and he was eloquent. However, the facts he talked about were a little radical, which did not match his identity as a concubine. It could be seen that in order to be able to enter Xie Xianâs eyes, he had put in a lot of effort and also went all out.
âWhatâs the reason you want to leave the industry? Is it just to get rid of your identity?âXie Xian asked casually.
Pan Shuo pinched his thigh and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Wasnât this nonsense? He had said it before.
Unexpectedly, his nephew, Pan Zilu, didnât feel guilty at all.ââYes and no.â
âIâm not only doing this to glorify my family, I also want to do something for the commoners. Minister, you may not know that my YiNiang was born as a maid, and my external family couldnât live on any longer, so they sold my YiNiang to a rich family to be a maid.â
â During a famine year, I sold my daughter. My family couldnât survive anymore, so 1 sold another one. My auntâs mother was sick and couldnât afford medicine. I couldnât afford it, so 1 sold another oneâ¦She barely managed to survive by selling her daughter. Later, when her aunt became a concubine, she had some money on her, so she always gave it to her maternal family.â
â.. They werenât lazy and lazy. They worked hard to live, but they were always dragged down by life. Even if his days were better now, he would at most have enough to eat and not starve to death.â
âBut what 1 see every day are all silkpants. They are drunk with life and death, greedy for pleasure. They were born rich, and they died rich, so they donât care about life and death. They monopolize most of Daliangâs wealth, knowledge, and official positions, but they donât care about the lives of the commonersâ¦â âThis is the loss of morals!â Pan Zilu was so excited that his veins were popping out, and his eyes were bloodshot. He was clearly in the mood for then/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
conversation.
Xie Xian put down his teacup and gently brushed his sleeves.
âThatâs enough. Prepare yourself tomorrow and go with me to see the emperor.â
Huh?
Pan Zilu, who was interrupted, was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Xie Xian to take notice of him. He seemed to have said that he was high just now. He did not know if he had mentioned the entire aristocratic family or if he had scolded Xie Xian.
But he actually passed!
He knew that with Xie Xianâs level of pride in front of Emperor Yu Heng, being able to get him to introduce him to the Emperor was equivalent to half the success.
Pan Shuo raised his leg and kicked Pan Zilu.â Are you so happy that youâve become silly? Why donât you thank Minister Xie?ââHe turned around and raised his eyebrows at Xie Xian, giving him a thumbs up.
âHow is it? I didnât lie to you, right? Itâs indeed not bad. Donât worry, this is considered a recommendation from both of us. If thereâs anything, weâll suffer together. 1 wonât cheat you..â
