Xiao Baoxin stepped forward and took off her cloak, causing Ming Yue’s raised hand behind her to instantly form a state of being at a loss for where to put it. Madam, you can’t snatch work like this.

“Why are you still drinking? Did Abba let you drink?”she asked.

Xie Xian shook his head and sent the servants away before sighing,” Last night, Sixth Lady Xu hanged herself from a beam–”

” What?!” Xiao Baoxin cried out involuntarily, and his face instantly paled. “People…Did you save her?”

Xie Xian shook his head with a solemn expression.

“It’s too late to find out. She’s already dead.”

He had also received news that the Xu Manor was not very peaceful this morning. He had been thinking about it until noon when he went to the Xiao Manor to receive the exact news. Xiao Sikong broke Xiao Baoshu’s leg in a fit of anger. He then accompanied Xiao Sikong to the Xu Mansion to beg for forgiveness. There was no one in the Xu Mansion to entertain them, and they were left there.

Xiao Baoxin didn’t recover for a long time.

She did not like Sixth Lady Xu, and Sixth Lady Xu did not seem to like her either. However, she was still at the age of a flower. To die so suddenly, and in such a self-destructive way, her heart felt as if it was on fire. Tears could not help but flow down.

“Why…”

She swallowed her words halfway through.

After experiencing such a thing, Xu Liu Niangzi’s dream of marrying her beloved Langjun was not only shattered, but also in such a disreputable way. She was only a twelve or thirteen year old Lil ‘Miss, what right did outsiders have to think that she could survive?

Whether it was Emperor Yu Heng, Sikong Xiao, or Minister Xu, the father of Xu Liuniang, these people held great power and all they thought about was to seek the most favorable outcome in a passive situation.

All Xu Liuniang could do was passively accept this result.

But she obviously couldn’t accept it, so the tragedy happened.

” Ah Xiao.” Xie Xian hugged her tightly in his arms. “I’ll take care of everything.”

“I want to go home and take a look.””

“Alright.”

Xie Xian didn’t tell her that Sikong Xiao wanted her to return to the residence tomorrow, but how could she not know?

She couldn’t say more and held his hand tightly.””Thank you.”

The two of them called in their respective men, and in less than ten minutes, Xiao Baoxin had changed into men’s clothes. He and Xie Xian took the ox cart from the main entrance to the back alley, and then changed into an inconspicuous calf cart cart that went straight to Qingxi Alley.

When the two of them arrived at the Xiao manor, it was already a mess. Xiao Baoshu had one of his legs broken by Sikong Xiao. Although he later found an orthopedist, he suddenly became hot and started talking nonsense. Madam Xie was in so much pain that she cried. She had a huge argument with Sikong Xiao.

Xiao Baoxin went to the courtyard where Xiao Baoshu was staying. It was after the intermission, and Madam Xie was in the midst of scolding Sikong Xiao.

“No matter what, he’s still my child. If you don’t know how to handle him properly, if he’s killed or crippled, I won’t let you off.”

“Shut up. Are you talking nonsense?!”Sikong Xiao was furious.

“Father!” Xiao Baoxin quickly walked forward. Madam Xie was obviously one step ahead of Sikong Xiao and ran towards her. She was already in her thirties, yet she was still complaining like a little girl.

“Bao Xin, Bao Shu was almost beaten to death by your Abba. His legs were broken and he was burning. Just now, he was still talking nonsense. What if something happened to her…I don’t want to live anymore…” Madam Xie’s eyes were swollen from crying, and her hair was messy. She could not even speak properly.

Xiao Baoxin hugged Madam Xie. Madam Xie was filled with fear, and she kept thinking,’Baoshu, please don’t die!’

“Please don’t let anything happen to Boshu!”

” Your father is too cruel. That’s his son!”

“The one who died was his biological daughter!”Sikong Xiao’s face was gloomy.

“Didn’t we already discuss that eight carriages would be carried over and the Emperor had also decreed the marriage?”Madam Xie sobbed.” 1, Baoshu, am not a heinous person. Didn’t he say that he was also schemed against? He did not do evil on purpose. He is also a victim.””

“His daughter is dead! Who is the victim here?”

“So you want to kill your own son to pay with your life, right?! Alright, if one life isn’t enough to compensate others, then I’ll compensate them too!”Mrs. Xie looked like a madman.

” I’m telling you that it’s fine if you save Baoshu, but if you can’t, I won’t live either. I’ll hang myself at the Xiao family’s gate!” I’ll show them how you forced your wife to die. You’re a just and selfless Sikong One, a great general!”

Xiao Baoxin was fine, but when he heard Madam Xie’s words, he quickly asked,

“What about Boshu? Mother, quickly tell me!”

Madam Xie sobbed.” He’s running a fever all over. He can’t take the medicine. He vomited after he drank it.” The doctor said that it would be fine if the fever went down. If the fever did not go down…It’s hard to say.”

Xiao Baoxin’s body swayed when he heard this, and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Xie Xian was by her side the entire time. Seeing that her expression was not right, he hurriedly hugged her in his arms.

“I’m going to see Baoshu…”

Xie Xian didn’t expect things to develop to this extent. While supporting Xiao Baoxin, he looked at Sikong Xiao and said,””Father-in-law didn’t invite the Imperial Physician Department’s Imperial Physician to take a look?”

Sikong Xiao was dejected.” The Eldest Princess suddenly fainted. Minister Xu’s wife is not doing well either. The imperial physician was sent to the Xu residence by the Emperor.” I asked someone to wait outside the Xu Manor and bring the imperial physician over when he comes out.”

When Xie Xian heard this, he hurriedly called Mu Jin to support Xiao Baoxin.

He then brought Mingyue out of the Xiao Manor without looking back.’Tll personally make a trip to the Wei family.”

Xiao Baoxin and Madam Xie entered the inner room. Xiao Baoshu was lying on the couch with half of his leg splayed. Blood was still seeping out. The eyes of the servant girl and boy servant in the room were red. It was obvious that he had cried, but he was afraid that the master would see it and hurriedly wiped it away.

“You didn’t see it just now. You were just talking nonsense and scared someone to death.”Madam Xie wiped away her tears.

The moment he saw his daughter, he had a backbone. He had even forgotten about his daughter marrying into the Xie family. Moreover, she didn’t have the heart to care about why she had gone to her mother’s house two days after she got married. Her son was lying on the bed.

Xiao Baoxin’s heart ached as if it was being cut by a knife. He could only blame his father for being too ruthless.

Mother didn’t know. Did he not know that Xiao Baoshu had fallen into someone’s trap?

Getting involved in the battle for the crown prince, getting involved in death, no one could avoid this scheme.

Be it Xiao Baoshu or Xu Liuniang, they were all 13 or 14-year-old boys and girls who grew up in honeypots. With little experience, how could he know the viciousness of the human heart?

However, he couldn’t say this in front of Madam Xie. Wasn’t this sowing discord between his parents?

“Baoshu will be fine.” Xiao Baoxin said firmly.

She held Xiao Baoshu’s hand, and it was indeed frighteningly hot. However, what was even more frightening was the fear in his heart. He was screaming in his heart.

‘Don’t die, don’t die. I didn’t mean to!’

‘I’m a sinner, I’m a murderer..’
