36.He is disobedient

"Ruhui, kneel down!" When they arrived at the main hall of Mrs. Xie's courtyard, Xie Xuan was scolded by his mother.
He bent his knees and knelt obediently in front of Master Xie and Mrs. Xie.
The maidservant who was working as a sweeper in the courtyard heard the noise and hid far away.
Lord Xie is the second son of the head of the Xie family. He has a gentle temperament, but is decisive and strategic in dealing with matters.
Xie Xuan has always been his legitimate son who both the family and the court are proud of. Although he seldom asked about the affairs in the backyard, he heard that the most outstanding son actually beat up the husband of the aristocratic family next to him and kicked him into the pond for a little girl.
He was really shocked and angry. When he came back, he slapped Mrs. Xie and scolded her. As the head mother of the house, she can't even discipline her daughter-in-law well, yet she still allows her son to act like this.
Lord Xie suppressed his anger and asked with a gloomy face: "Ruhui, at the full moon banquet of Sanlang's youngest son, you ignored the family relationship between the Xie family and the Geng family and were so rude to Jiulang of the Geng family. Your etiquette over the years has been Where did all the education go?"
Xie Xuan bent his shoulders, kowtowed heavily, and fell to the ground: "Father, Ru Hui knew he was wrong. This matter was done by Ru Hui, and he was allowed to be punished by his father and mother. , no complaints." He said slowly: "But the princess is my legitimate wife, I can't let others insult her."
When Mrs. Xie heard him kowtow so loudly, she immediately felt distressed and leaned over to help her. He got up and advised earnestly: "My mother has told you a long time ago that if you like the princess, you can just keep her outside. In the future, your legitimate wife will definitely be the legitimate daughter of the four major families. Although Cui Yuan is the first daughter in my mother's heart But if you don't like the suitable candidate, then look at the girls from the Wang family and the Huan family. As long as you have the daughter of your dreams, mother will definitely let you get your wish."
Mrs. Xie's words were arrogant, but she was not false. .
The Wang family of Langya and the Xie family of Chen County are tied for the top of the world. Mrs. Xie and Master Xie, one is the legitimate daughter of the Wang family and the other is the legitimate son of the Xie family, and they only gave birth to one son.
Xie Xuan is not only the direct grandson of the head of the Xie family, but also the direct grandson of the head of the Wang family. He is a husband that both the two top families have high hopes for, and he is also the pearl of the world that many noble girls from aristocratic families dream of.
Xie Xuan did not reply to Mrs. Xie's words, but raised his head and said: "The princess will change her gender in the future. She is now handling the general affairs accounts under Fufeng Yuan's name very well." Seeing his persistence,
Mr. Xie shook his head helplessly. He sighed: "Ruhui, are you messing with your parents, or are you messing with yourself! Your mother knows better than you the big and small affairs in Fufeng Yuan." Master Xie said decisively: "Jinling has
changed his temper . It's impossible. With no power and a bad reputation, the Xie family will never let such a girl take charge of the central government in the future!"
Xie Xuan lowered his eyes and said seriously: "What if Ruhui insists on only wanting the princess?"
Seeing that he refused to repent. , Mr. Xie was so angry that he raised his sleeves and slapped him hard, and cursed: "Unfilial son, the Xie family has provided you with fine clothes, delicious food, servants and maids, and you have read all the ancient books, so you are named Jiangzuo. Your parents will educate you." Adult, I want to teach you etiquette and etiquette, but you are going to disobey your family and your elders for a beautiful girl?"
Mrs. Xie saw that Xie Xuan's body had been beaten to the side, with blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, so she stepped forward and hugged him. She was angry and distressed, and her tears immediately fell, saying: "Ruhui, mother knows that you love the princess, and your father and mother will not insist on separating you. If you really like it, just be obedient and raise her outside. Even if you marry your legitimate wife in the future, your mother will help you deal with things at home."
Master Xie sighed from the side: "Madam, you don't understand, he only wants the princess, that is, he only wants Jinling as his legitimate wife."
Mrs. Xie said again He was so angry that he cried: "Ruhui, your father and mother gave birth to you as a son, and the Wang and Xie families also have high hopes for you. Your eldest brother and cousin also married noble daughters of the Wang and Huan families. You have been obedient and sensible since you were a child. Don't be stubborn with your father and mother this time."
Mr. Xie made it clear without trying to sell things off. He stood up and said sternly: "Ruhui, if you insist on asking Jinling to be your legitimate wife, she will be the second Shi'an in the Xie family!" The
Longkang Huan family used Princess Shi'an to force Huan Erlang to marry the noble daughter of the Geng family. If he doesn't obey, Shi'an can't bear the humiliation, and he doesn't want Huan Erlang to be in a dilemma between love and filial piety and sacrifice his life for his family and country. Huan Erlang married his bride as the Huan family wished.
Xie Xuan knelt straight and said in a trembling voice: "Jinling is not Shi'an, and I will not be Huan Erlang." His eyes were red, tears were gathering in his eyes, and he said resolutely: "If the Xie family forces the princess to death, I will never do it." Live alone!"
After hearing this, Master Xie became even more furious and furious. The children of the Xie family are all like Zhilan, and there are many heroes. I have never heard of a husband who would die for a little girl. This treacherous son has simply lost the face of the Xie family of Chen County, a minister who has been in charge for hundreds of years!
Master Xie pointed at the gate of the courtyard and scolded him angrily: "You are an unfilial son with no future and no foresight. The Xie family's painstaking efforts in cultivating you have been in vain! Get out of here!"
Mrs. Xie did not look at him, covered her sleeves and cried bitterly: "Ruhui, how could you hurt your father and mother's heart like this?"
Xie Xuan has taken the Xie family's motto as a code of conduct since he was a child. He should be filial to his parents, respect his elders, be cautious in marriage, and be patient. Now he violated the family motto, which made his father furious and made his mother cry bitterly, feeling extremely guilty.
He kowtowed heavily to the ground, and the blood on his forehead and the tears in the corners of his eyes fell to the ground. He said: "If you are unfilial, please forgive me, father and mother." After Xie Xuan left, Mrs. Xie sighed with tears in her eyes

: "Like a ghost obsessed with his heart, he is determined to get the princess. Sir, what should I do?"
Mr. Xie thought for a moment and said: "But it's just that the young man fell in love for the first time and couldn't think about it for a while. There is no need to take it seriously. Wasn't it the same for Erlang of the Huan family at the beginning? He said that he had deep love for Shi'an and did not want to marry a daughter of the Geng family. Once Shi'an died, he would not have married another bride, consummated the marriage and had a legitimate son."
Mrs. Xie wiped her tears, but she was still worried: "But this is the first time Ruhui has been disobedient ."
Mr. Xie patted Mrs. Xie's back gently and said comfortingly: "Madam, you still don't know Ru Hui's temperament. If someone forces him to do something, he usually won't obey and do as he is told. Now that he asks, I'm afraid that He is wishful thinking."
Madam Xie asked in shock: "Your husband is saying that the princess doesn't want to be with Ruhui?"
Mr. Xie thought carefully and said, "I'm afraid the princess doesn't want to stay in the Xie family."
"That's fine." Madam Xie nodded. He sighed again: "Oh, I don't want to stay in Xie's family, but I still hook Ru Hui like this."
Master Xie expressed his speculation: "Jin Ling is smarter than Shi'an, he has feelings for Ru Hui, but he is not trapped by love. He will probably be more beautiful later." She will rely on Ruhui to negotiate terms with our Xie family."
Mrs. Xie looked disdainful: "As long as she is not greedy for Ruhui's wife, any money, cloth, or house servants can be given to her."
