Chapter 2591 decisive Yi An (3)
As Xi spoke, she burst into tears. If her husband had not died in battle, she would have been the wife of the Duke of the Republic, and the queen would not have treated her with such an attitude. As for Lin Qingshu, she would not have sued her. But when her husband died, she was too sad at that time and was obsessed with her son for giving up her title. The more firm the attitude was at that time, she would have regrets now.
When Wu Zhengxiao heard him mentioning the elder brother who died in battle, his eyes suddenly turned red: "Sister-in-law, if you want Hongyun to inherit the title, you can tell me. I said that as long as you regret it, tell me..."
Lan Xi couldn't listen, so she stood up and wanted to refute.
Before she spoke, Qingshu pinched her arm hard and said, "San Sister-in-law, don't worry, let's listen to the third brother finish the words."
It is definitely impossible to return the title. But Lan Xi is now against Wu Zhengxiao's decision and will see tears between the couple. The two have always had a good relationship, and it is really worth it to have a estrangement for this matter.
Yi An also said coldly: "Let him say, I want to hear what he wants to say."
After being interrupted like this, Wu Zhengxiao couldn't continue to say anything.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yi An said on his behalf: "Why don't you say anything? Keep going?"
Wu Zhengxiao said with difficulty: "Empress, I promised my sister-in-law and Hongyun that as long as they figured it out in the future, I would return the title to them."
Lan Xi's tears suddenly came, and she cried and said, "Wu Zhengxiao, have you ever thought about Brother Guo before saying this?"
Guo Ge'er is the prince of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, and he almost died several times because of this. It was because of his ridiculous promise that he would now let his son give up his position as prince and what to do in the future.
Wu Zhengxiao was silent and said, "A man is a real man, and he can't catch up with one word. Since I promised my sister-in-law and Hongyun that I will do what I say."
Hearing this, Xi and his daughter-in-law Tian both showed joy, but seeing Yi An's expressionless face, the joy quickly disappeared.
Yi An looked at Hongyun and said coldly: "Your mother wants you to inherit the title again, and your third uncle also agrees to return the title to you. What do you think?"
Hongyun knelt on the ground and said with shame: "Aunt, I'm sorry, I don't know about this, otherwise I would definitely advise my mother to dispel this ridiculous idea."
Before Xi could speak, Tian was anxious first: "My husband, I did this for you. How could you let her down?"
Hongyun said uncomfortable: "It's not that I want to let my mother down, but that I'm not qualified to inherit the title anymore. Uncle San is willing to fulfill his original promise. He values love and righteousness, but I can't be such a despicable villain."
When Xi heard this, he screamed: "Hongyun, I don't allow you to talk about yourself like this."
Hongyun said with red eyes: "Mom, please leave your son with a few face! In the past, you asked me to give up the title to protect my safety, and I compromised in order to make you feel at ease. Now the world is peaceful, you want to return to the title. Mom, what do you want others to think of us?"
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but cry: "Mom, I've been a coward, don't let me become a despicable villain again, okay?"
Wu Zhengxiao was injured repeatedly and Guo Ge'er was assassinated several times. He knew that he was even more self-blame. He also wanted to go to Tongcheng to fight, but Xi was unwilling, so he had to give up.
"Mom, we can live a good life without a title. Mom, let's beg you as my son."
When the family was divided, the property was divided equally by three bedrooms. They could live without worries about their family property. He also had errands, while the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and his aunt would not have a bad future. Therefore, he was very satisfied with his current life and did not want to make any changes.
Xi looked at her son crying so sadly, and her heart was shattered: "It's my mother who is confused. I shouldn't have this thought. Don't worry, I won't talk about this anymore."
The Empress had a clear attitude and did not agree to her son's succession. What's the use of her disagreeing with Wu Zhengxiao? In fact, she was trying to test the Queen's attitude when she was rumored behind the scenes. What was the result? She turned Aqiao in. If she dared to think about it again, the Empress would probably not be able to tolerate her.
Thinking of this, Xi knelt down to Yi An and said, "Empress, it's all my fault this time. I am obsessed with Hongyun's desire to succeed. Hongyun didn't know about this from beginning to end. I admit that you have to beat or punish him. I just want you not to blame Hongyun."
Yi An did not feel soft-hearted because she regretted it, and said with a cold face: "You were the one who knelt in front of Hongyun and begged him not to inherit the title; now you are the one who wants to get the title with inconsistent means when seeing Taiping in the border town. Sister-in-law, what is the title of Zhenguo Duke's Mansion? If you don't want it, throw it away if you want it."
Xi cried and apologized: "Empress, I know I'm wrong. Don't worry, I won't know it will be wrong in the future."
Yi An didn't believe that she would still make trouble if she had the chance. However, she didn't care what Xi thought. It was Wu Zhengxiao who made her angry: "Wu Zhengxiao, can you repay this title just by saying you can repay it?"
Wu Zhengxiao said: "I know this is inappropriate, but I promised my sister-in-law and Hongyun..."
Seeing that he said this, Yi An was furious and grabbed the teacup next to him and smashed it at Wu Zhengxiao. Wu Zhengxiao didn't dare to dodge, so the cup hit him on his forehead.
Lan Xi felt so distressed that she couldn't help but stand up, but Qingshu pulled her sleeve down and sat down again.
Wu Zhengxiao lowered his eyes and said, "I know that inheriting the title means shouldering the important task of guarding the border town, but now the Jin people have been defeated by us. With the imperial court, they are no longer threatening."
External troubles have been eliminated and will not pose a threat in the future, so it is nothing to let Hongyun inherit the title.
Yi An said with a gloomy face: "The son of the Wu family can only die while standing, not live on his knees. You just want to fulfill your promise. Have you ever thought about the Duke's Mansion? If you really hand over the title to him, the Wu family will be defeated within thirty years. As the head of the family, you don't think about the future of the Wu family. You still feel that you are not wrong."
After being evaluated by Yi An, Hongyun's face was as beautiful as earth.
Wu Zhengxiao couldn't speak either. He just felt that the border town was too peaceful and there was no danger. Hongyun had nothing to inherit the title, but he forgot to think about the future of the Duke's Mansion.
When he compromised for Xi, he actually showed that Hongyun was a person with a weak will. He wanted to inherit the title and become a family member... Then my sister-in-law still wanted to do whatever she wanted.
Thinking of this, Wu Zhengxiao also understood why Yi An was furious. He said with shame: "Empress, I am the one who is not considering it carefully."
