Hou Mansion has a daughter to marry

Chapter 9 Fabricating Rumors
Old Madam Xie is such a wise person, she knows the purpose of Princess Yan's trip, and the rumors are rampant, if she is allowed to go unchecked, it may cause disaster.

The next day, Mrs. Xie called Rong Anhou to the upper room in private.

"Mother." Marquis Rong An saw that the old lady Xie's expression was resolute and very serious, so he knew that it was a difficult matter to ask him to come here this time.

The old lady Xie picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then said: "Yesterday Princess Yanjun came to visit unexpectedly, saying that she wanted to see Ning'er. If An'er hadn't put on a human skin mask to relieve the crisis, the consequences would have been disastrous."

Marquis Rong An's expression darkened, the rumors of Xie Changning's disappearance were already spreading all over the city, if he didn't think of a solution in time, the consequences would be unimaginable, it really is like a storm is about to come.

"Mother, according to my opinion, Princess Yan must have heard the rumors about Ning'er." Marquis Rong An frowned.

"More than that, the princess of Yanjun is afraid that she has already started an investigation. If things go on like this, sooner or later the paper will not be able to contain the fire, and sooner or later the matter of Miss Xie's family will not be concealed. This matter should be resolved as soon as possible..."

What the old lady Xie said hit the nail on the head, if this matter got to the emperor's ears, it would be impossible to stop it.

"Mom, what do you mean?"

Old Madam Xie took a deep breath, and said word by word: "Announce Xie Chang'an as missing, let An'er replace Ning'er!"

Upon hearing this, Marquis Rong An asked suspiciously: "Mother, An'er was replaced by Ning'er, why did you announce that An'er was missing?"

If it was announced that Xie Changan was missing, wouldn't it be even more difficult if Xie Changning came back?How to deal with two identical people?Could it be that Xie Changning should be Xie Changan?
"An'er is stubborn. Only when An'er's back roads are eliminated, can she let go and act as a substitute. Besides, Ning'er's rumors are not groundless, and there are many people who want to get to the bottom of it." Mrs. Xie explained methodically.

Marquis Rong An raised his eyes to look at Old Madam Xie, not angry but pretentious.

As the Bu Laosong of the Xie family, Mrs. Xie is decisive in her handling of affairs, saying one thing, even if Marquis Rong An is reluctant, for the sake of the safety of Marquis Rong An's house, he has no choice but to agree.

"Mother, I'll take care of this matter, but don't let Madam know about it."

On the third day after Princess Yan went to the Marquis of Rong'an's Mansion, there was news from the Marquis of Rong'an's Mansion: the missing person was Xie Chang'an, the second lady of the Xie family, not the eldest lady, Xie Changning.

Two days later, the rumors intensified. Some people said that Xie Changan had eloped with a man, and some said that Xie Changan was kidnapped. Xie Changning was worried about his younger sister and couldn't afford to be ill ever since.

Princess Yan County couldn't hold back when she heard the rumors, and hurriedly sent someone to the Rong'an Hou Mansion to inquire about the situation.

Everyone in the Marquis of Rong'an said that Xie Chang'an had disappeared, and the reason for his disappearance was not mentioned at all. The way of trying to cover it up disturbed Princess Yan's heart.

Princess Yan thought to herself, the disappearance of Xie Chang'an has been known to everyone, and now her reputation has been completely ruined, and Xie Changning's reputation will inevitably be affected, so it is not a good thing to marry Xie Changning.

After much deliberation, Princess Yan still felt that something was wrong, so she immediately sent someone to call Yan Qinglan over.

Princess Yanjun looked at Yan Qinglan fixedly, her red lips parted slightly: "Lan'er, have you heard all the rumors about the Rong'an Hou Mansion recently?"

Hearing this, Yan Qinglan shook his head. He has been busy studying poetry and songs recently, and he doesn't pay much attention to the affairs of the outside world. In the past, Yan Qinglan always kept away gossip from the outside world.

Seeing this, Princess Yanjun had no choice but to tell Yan Qinglan about the rumors outside and the response from the Marquis of Rong'an.

Seeing that Yan Qinglan was not clear, Princess Yan looked at herself, and then said: "Xie Changan is missing, and Xie Changning is worried that the younger sister will not be able to afford it."

When Yan Qinglan heard the words, an anxious look appeared on her warm and jade-like face, and she hurriedly asked: "Mother, you said Changning is ill?"

Concubine Yanjun was helpless at her son's reaction, she raised her eyebrows, and instead of answering, she asked, "Lan'er, what mother means is that the reputation of the girls in the Marquis of Rong'an's mansion has been ruined, and your marriage with Xie Changning, or just let it go! "

Princess Yanjun's original intention was to let Yan Qinglan retreat in the face of difficulties. Who would have thought that Yan Qinglan's focus was only on Xie Changning.

Yan Qinglan shook her head, and said in a gentle but firm tone: "Mother, why should Chang Ning be involved in the matter of Xie Chang'an, I believe that Chang Ning is a good girl who cleans herself up, and in this life, I will not marry her."

Yan Qinglan has always had an idea, and no one can make him give up on whatever he decides.

Seeing Yan Qinglan being so stubborn, Princess Yanjun sighed, and said, "Since that's the case, I won't say much, Lan'er, you have to know, mother is doing it for your own good."

It was night, Yan Qinglan was restless, and walked to the courtyard, looking at the bright moon in the sky.

Lovesickness under the moon, Yan Qinglan has never been so concerned about a woman before, and she doesn't know what is going on with her body. She is so weak and needs human protection. It would be great if she could be married as soon as possible. I will love her, cherish her, and prevent her from being tortured by the serious illness.

"My lord, it's late at night, you should go to bed." Li Caifu, Yan Qinglan's servant, came over.

Yan Qinglan has always been gentle and courteous, and has never seen him in a hurry, but today, he couldn't help but add a little bit of sadness on his face, and asked worriedly: "Ah Fu, Changning is ill, I don't know what's going on, just go and find out. "

Li Caifu nodded and agreed: "The son was worried about Miss Xie's family! Don't worry, I will go to investigate tomorrow."

In the early morning of the next day, Li Caifu went to the Marquis of Rong'an to inquire.

The servant girl Yingming ran over and said out of breath, "Ma'am, a man who claimed to be Yan Shizi's servant came outside, and said he wanted to know how the young miss is doing."

Lin was at a loss when she heard that, Ning'er hadn't found it yet, how could she be sick?The mistress of the house, who is stupid, this matter is strange, Lin's calculations, she knew that Rong Anhou must have done a lot of things without telling him, thinking of this, Lin got up to look for Rong Anhou.

Seeing Marquis Rong An, Mrs. Lin said directly: "Master, just now people from Yan County Prince's Mansion came to ask how our Ning'er's condition is. What's going on?"

Now that the matter has come to an end, Marquis Rong An is not afraid that something will happen to Mrs. Lin, so he said truthfully: "I released the news that it was An'er who disappeared from the Xie family, and Ning'er was worried about this and couldn't afford to get sick."

When Lin heard this, she couldn't believe it. She didn't know whether it was anger or heartache, and asked, "Why do you say that An'er is missing?!"

Rong Anhou's face froze, and then a stern look flashed across his face, and he said in a deep voice: "Ma'am, An'er will disappear sooner or later, now I can only let An'er change her skin and become Ning'er."

"Disappeared..." Lin's eyes darkened when she heard these two words, and she fainted straight away.

When Mrs. Lin woke up, Yingming was watching by the bed. Seeing Mrs. Lin waking up, she said happily, "Ma'am, you're awake!"

Lin's lips were slightly dry, Yingming helped her up when she saw this, and brought a glass of warm water for Lin to drink.

At this moment, Qingshuang, Xie Changan's personal servant girl, ran in in a panic, and shouted anxiously: "Ma'am, it's not good! It's not good!"

Seeing Qingshuang's pale face and unsteady breath, he immediately asked, "Qingshuang, why are you panicking?"

Qingshuang didn't care to catch her breath, and forced her to say: "Master and Miss are arguing in the living room, Madam, go and have a look!"

Surprised, Lin hurriedly got out of bed and rushed over.

Before reaching the living room, Mrs. Lin heard a crackling sound, and was anxious, so she quickened her pace and saw the mess all over the place.

Seeing the father and daughter who were at war, Lin hurriedly walked to Xie Chang'an's side regardless of the debris on the ground, and asked softly, "An'er, what's wrong?"

When Marquis Rong An heard this, he snorted coldly, turned his hands away and did not look at the two of Lin.

Xie Changan looked up at Lin, smiled ironically, and said, "Father wants me to become Xie Changning and make Xie Changan disappear! I don't understand. Xie Changning is your daughter, so am I, Xie Changan? Killed him with my own hands." Me, how can you bear it?!"

How could Xie Changan not complain, his biological father spread rumors to ruin her reputation, didn't he just want to drive her to a dead end, so that she could become Xie Changning, also a daughter, why should she bear Xie Changning's fault?Still at the price of Xie Changan's disappearance, there should be a limit to partiality!

Marquis Rong An was not angry and prestige, and said without any refusal: "It is about the safety of the Marquis of Rong An's mansion, as the young lady of the Marquis of Rong An's mansion, you must accept it."

Seeing Xie Changan's heartbroken appearance, Rong Anhou couldn't help but feel heartbroken. In order to keep the overall situation in mind, he can only be this bad guy. If Xie Changan wants to blame, he can blame him.

The cold words were like sharp arrows, and Xie Changan's heart was gradually shattered. Xie Changan smiled miserably, and said in a cold voice: "I was born in the first place, just for today's experience?" It is impossible for Marquis Rong An to know that this will happen.

Lin took Xie Chang'an's hand, and cried, "An'er, listen to what mother said, your father is forced to do so, and now the Rong'an Hou Mansion is in danger, if there is no way out, your father will definitely not do this."

Lin didn't know what words could comfort Xie Changan's heart, so she could only tell Xie Changan that they had no other choice, and they were unwilling to sacrifice her, their hearts hurt as much as hers!

Xie Chang'an didn't know how much Lin's words were true and how much was false. Now she is full of grievances and heartaches, and doesn't know how to deal with herself.

Xie Chang'an resolutely pulled out Lin's hand, and said with a sneer, "You are all reasonable, but I, Xie Chang'an, was wrong. You are so cruel-hearted!"

"An'er, we have unavoidable difficulties... The palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh, and mother doesn't want you to live in such pain! But, things have developed to this point, and parents have nothing to do..." Lin burst into tears, and she Knowing that they owe Xie Chang'an too much, and now force Xie Chang'an to give up himself, it is really a heartbreaking pain.

Lin's tears also fell on Xie Chang'an's heart, the pain was like tearing, but when he thought of obliterating his own existence, Xie Chang'an couldn't help being resentful, and said coldly: "I'm tired of hearing this, after all, I thank Changan for my life!"

"An'er..."
