Chapter 221 Xie Xin's Whereabouts, Xie Yi's Imminent Death
"how?"
Situ Yuan asked softly.
The Black Kirin Guard Office was heavily guarded, and he didn't dare let the sparrow fly in directly. Moreover, ordinary sparrows had limited intelligence and were unable to convey the message to him.
Unlike Xie Ying's Xiangxiang, as a mutant plant, its intelligence is comparable to that of a toddler, and it is much more useful than an ordinary sparrow.
Xie Ying heard quite a bit, but she was too lazy to write too many words, so she only wrote two: secret investigation.
Situ Yuan: “…”
He hesitated for a moment, but still didn't dare to say that he could hear Xie Ying's thoughts.
So he whispered, "With Lu Xuan's ability, he should be able to find out a lot. Even if he can't find it, we can still help."
He and Xie Ying both knew about that humiliating history and would never tolerate anyone using the rice bag flower to cause trouble.
What's more, with his current status, he cannot tolerate anyone doing something behind the scenes.
It's a pity that Xie Ying is too young now and can't speak, otherwise it would be much more convenient for them to discuss things.
Situ Yuan then asked Xie Ying, "Do you have any plans for the Chen family?"
Xie Ying raised the corner of her mouth in sarcasm, and for once stopped being lazy, she wrote a sentence on the wooden board: I'll tell you a secret. The old man of the Chen family packed up the thank you letter and sent it out.
Situ Yuan's eyes widened instantly: "Sent it out? To whom?"
Xie Ying wrote another four words: A Gu girl.
Situ Yuan's expression immediately changed: "Xie Xin is his grandson, and he is so cruel."
Xie Ying rolled her eyes at him in disdain: [What's wrong with a grandson? Xu Maochun is his own grandson!]
Situ Yuan: “…”
That makes sense!
The old man of the Chen family was so cruel to his own grandson Xu Maochun, let alone his grandson Xie Xin?
He thought for a moment and said, "Neither Xie Yi nor Xie Xin can continue to take the imperial examination. Since the old man of the Chen family has plans for Xie Xin, he must have plans for Xie Yi as well. However, Xie Yi is much smarter than Xie Xin. I wonder what plans he has for Xie Yi."
Xie Ying smiled coldly: [No matter how he arranges it, it's useless. Xie Yi must die!]
It is precisely because Xie Yi is smarter than Xie Xin and is determined to seek revenge that this person must die.
And Xie Jia!
But Xie Jia can't die now, because she and Pei Rong haven't gotten married yet.
When the two get married, Xie Jia will die.
By then, when Chen Fang knows that all her precious children are gone, will she still be willing to take all the blame and let Xie Yun and the Chen family continue to go unpunished?
When they first came to the capital, although there were some rumors in the capital, they did not really hurt Xie Yun and Chen Fang's foundation.
So they could only choose to show weakness to the enemy and use some tricks in secret.
At that time, Xie Xiu and Xie Yun were still unable to break off their relationship, so even if she could kill these people quietly, she couldn't do that.
After all, the others are not fools. If Xie Yi and others die suddenly, they will suspect Xie Xiu even if they have no evidence.
If Xie Yun, Chen Fang, and the two elders of the Xie family died, Xie Xiu would have to observe mourning and would not be able to participate in this imperial examination.
But it's different now.
It is reasonable that Xie Yi died from the injuries sustained after being beaten with fifty boards, and no one would doubt it.
Xie Jia was severely injured and disfigured, and died of a miscarriage after marriage, so no one would suspect it.
As for the Chen family...
Emperor Taihe attacked Chen Fang, which obviously showed that he had become suspicious of the Chen family. As long as he continued to work hard and uncovered the Chen family's private affairs, there was no need to worry that Emperor Taihe would not be murderous.
This time, the incident of the rice sanghua pill can be used to sound the death knell for the Chen family with Xie Yi's death.
Xie Ying's mind raced, and she soon came up with an idea.
She looked at Situ Yuan and wrote on the wooden board: Do you have that medicine?
Situ Yuan was stunned at first, but he quickly guessed what she meant: "Do you want to use it on the Xie family?"
Xie Ying gave him a deep look, suddenly feeling a little sour: "You're truly worthy of being a brain-powered person. Your brain is truly sharp. Just by mentioning that medicine, you can already guess so much. Tsk, this kid is full of cunning, isn't he? You'll have to be more careful next time."
Situ Yuan felt a little wronged: "..."
He just heard Xie Ying say that she wanted Xie Yi to die, so he guessed that she wanted to use that kind of medicine on the Xie family. Why did he become so cunning?
It's obvious that this girl is more cunning than him!
Situ Yuan complained madly in his heart, but still took out a medicine bottle.
He quietly reminded, "This is a powerful painkiller developed after the apocalypse. It's specifically for people with special abilities who are extremely sensitive to pain. Ordinary people will experience very strong side effects if they use it, so it must not be abused."
Xie Ying gave him a disdainful look: [If I want to kill someone, do I need to use this?]
If it wasn't to sound the alarm for Emperor Taihe, would she use this thing?
Speaking of which, Emperor Taihe is now Situ Yuan's uncle, so by doing this, she is still helping Situ Yuan.
Thinking of this, Xie Ying became even angrier.
So she rolled her eyes at Situ Yuan and wrote on the wooden board: You JIU.
Well, the word "uncle" has too many strokes, so she directly replaced it with pinyin. Anyway, Situ Yuan has a good brain and he will definitely be able to guess it.
Situ Yuan: “…”
Xie Ying put the medicine bottle away, and at night, she asked Xiangxiang to give Xie Yi and others some extra medicine.
So from that night on, Xie Yi and the others would have sweet dreams every night. In their dreams, they would feel ecstatic and relaxed, but after waking, they would always feel extremely tired and could hardly muster up any energy.
Several people suspected that the problem was with the pills, but once they stopped taking the pills, they would feel severe pain and had to continue taking the pills.
Time soon arrived at Shay's wedding day.
Because she had to choose an auspicious date based on her horoscope, her wedding date was before Xie Jia's, and she didn't have much time to prepare.
What's even worse is that after Xie Yun handed over Luo Sheng's dowry and Luo family property, the entire Xie family was almost emptied.
If Zhu Xiucai had not given a lot of betrothal gifts when proposing marriage, the Xie family would not even be able to afford a decent dowry.
But although Zhu Xiucai gave a large betrothal gift, the Xie family had more than one daughter, Xie Yi.
After Xie Yi, Xie Jia will also get married.
Unfortunately, Pei Rong's family had already fallen into poverty and could not afford much of a betrothal gift.
Even if Xie Yun gave all of his betrothal gifts as Xie Jia's dowry, it would still be far less than Xie Yi's share.
But Xie Yi is just a concubine's daughter, and her dowry certainly cannot exceed that of Xie Jia, the legitimate daughter.
So Xie Yun had to carefully choose the betrothal gift given by Zhu Xiucai and divide it into two parts, one as Xie Yi's dowry, and the other, plus Pei Rong's betrothal gift, as Xie Jia's dowry.
Worried that Zhu Xiucai might be dissatisfied, Xie Yun took out his own calligraphy and paintings, as well as the Four Books and Five Classics that he had annotated himself, and gave them to Xie Yi as a dowry.
He also prepared one for Xie Jia, but naturally, there was no need to let Zhu Xiucai know about this matter.
After the wedding date was set, Zhu Xiucai's uncle took his servants to prepare all matters and did not let Zhu Xiucai get involved at all, for fear that it would delay his imperial examination.
Zhu Xiucai read books, answered questions, and sought advice from Xie Yun every day.
Seriously.
Until the night before Shay went out, he was still sitting quietly reading under the lamp as usual.
The servant was secretly amazed. Seeing him put down his book and prepare to rest, he couldn't help but whispered, "Master, you're getting married tomorrow. Aren't you nervous?"
If it were him, he would definitely be so nervous that he couldn't sleep all night!
But Zhu Xiucai said calmly: "There's nothing to be nervous about. It's just getting married."
His attitude was too calm, as if marriage was not a big event in life, but just an ordinary little thing.
The servant couldn't help but ask again, "Then... aren't you curious about Madam Xie's appearance and personality?"
Zhu Xiucai's reaction was still very calm: "She is a girl from the Xie family, she will be fine. It's getting late, it's time to rest, we have to get up early tomorrow."
The servant had no choice but to shut up and wait on him until he rested.
On the other hand, Shay was not at peace.
