Rebirth As Richest Lady: Coddle Regent

The day that Xie Heng went to the Dijing s, the Old Madame Xie fell ill.

The mansion had suddenly lost so many people. It had already become empty, and without a backbone, it became more and more desolate.

Wen Jiu fried soup from the kitchen and sent it into Old Madame Xie's room, just in time to see Xie Zishu and Xie Zian sob quietly on the table.

"Uncle Zhang."

Wen Jiu instructed the butler, "Take Sixth Miss and Seventh Young Master to rest first. The kitchen has just made porridge.

Now, only the Old Madame Xie was left in the Palace bringing along the people from the Purple Sun Mountain. With such a large manor being managed by them, there were some things that Wen Jiu had to take care of himself.

"Sister Jiu …"

Xie Zi Shu ran over and hugged Wen Jiu's arm, and asked: "Elder brother … Where did he go? Did he not want us? "

The little girl cried until her eyes were swollen like walnuts.

Wen Jiu could not bear to see this, he rubbed the little girl's head and comforted her softly, "Brother Elder has something important to do. He will come back to pick you up after he finishes. This is what my elder brother dotes on the Sixth Sister the most. He also told me that he was going to take her to Dijing to watch a dance, and to reward her with peonies. "

Xie Zi Shu raised her hand to wipe her eyes, and said with incomparable certainty: "Yes, Elder Brother dotes on me the most. Senior brother will not lie to me! "

"Then why are you still crying!"

Xie Zian sniffed, "Elder brother said that only useless people would cry!"

The little girl turned around and fiercely glared at him. However, her eyes were completely red and swollen, without the slightest bit of deterrence.

"If you have a grudge, then you have to take it. If you can't take it now, then you have to grow up faster. There will come a day when you can!"

Xie Zian acted like a little adult and reached out to pull the little girl away. "Let's go!"

The treasures held in everyone's hands by the Xie Family since a young age were like jade and jade. Normally, not to mention their eyes getting red and swollen from crying, even if they were to shed a tear, Old Madame Xie would still feel heartache.

But now, Wen Jiu saw them as children who were much more sensible than ordinary people.

"Uncle Zhang, you go take a look."

Wen Jiu reminded him, Housekeeper Zhang replied "Yes" and immediately went.

"Grandmother, let's use the medicine first."

Wen Jiu brought the soup to the side of the bed.

Old Madame Xie closed his eyes and did not react.

Wen Jiu said in a low voice: "Elder Brother went to the Dijing, the results are still unknown. If Grandmother is always sick, how can elder brother relax?"

Old Madame Xie opened his eyes and looked at her for a long time before he sighed and tried to sit up by the bed. Wen Jiu quickly helped her up and gave her the bowl.

The old lady finished her drink in one breath and said with a hoarse voice, "All these years, he has been busy in the thirteen cities of Jiang An, the young master of the Xie Family is a playboy, which also means it's very lively. If this really gets out of hand, then those people will have to give him some face because of his hundred years of reputation, but his Dijing and his Changping County …"

The old lady's eyes were filled with worry, there was no need to explain further, Wen Jiu knew that throughout the generations, all the major events originated from the hands of the people from Dijing.

"Once you enter the Dijing, you will be under the feet of the real Son of Heaven, with a thousand heavy shackles and ten thousand spiderwebs. No matter how strong you are, you will lose your life here if you aren't careful …"

Old Madame Xie said in a low voice: "Jiu, I'm really afraid... I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for Heng-er to come back. "

"No, Grandmother."

Wen Jiu was very clear about what kind of place Dijing was. In his previous life, he had floated in there for more than ten years, but in the end, he was still unable to preserve his life.

But she believed in Xie Heng.

"Brother Yun has personally intercepted the lord of Great Jin, which is a great thing for our Great Yan. The situation right now is as though it has shifted from one moment to the next. If Grandmother can take care of her body …"

Wen Jiu suddenly stopped halfway through his words.

Old Madame Xie asked her: "What do you mean?"

Wen Jiu said: "I will go to Dijing and help elder brother with a few matters."

"How can this be?"

The Old Madame Xie frowned in disapproval. "You're just a little girl, I'm afraid you haven't even gone out with this Changping County, which is thousands of miles away from here …"

"A mere thousand miles, Wen Jiu is nothing to be afraid of. As for the Dijing, there will naturally be people who will help Big Brother. "

Wen Jiu had not finished speaking.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came from outside the courtyard. attendant exclaimed: "Madam! Young Madame Fast... "Run …"

The last word paused in his throat as the light of the blade streaked across the window, splattering the window with blood.

Wen Jiu turned around to look, and Old Madame Xie sat up in shock as he hurriedly stopped her, "Don't … Jiu, you can't go, quickly leave through the side door. Don't worry about me … "

Before she could move, the assailant kicked the door open.

In the twilight, the candlelight flickered. The person who had come was covered in black clothes and his face was covered in blood. Step by step, he approached the two of them.

Wen Jiu turned around and took out the sword on the wall, holding it in her hand, she nearly couldn't raise it, she didn't stop at all, when the opponent walked towards her, she fiercely slashed, jabbed, and stabbed. She had no skills, but completely disregarded her own life and death.

After the man in black was forcefully suppressed by her for two moves, the sword in her hand was sent flying. At this moment, Li Qing flipped over the window and caught the longsword, piercing straight into the man in black's heart.

Wen Jiu took a few steps back, supporting himself with the chair, only then did he finally stand still. The black clothed man had already fallen to the ground with a thump, and in a short moment, the outside of the courtyard was already filled with soldiers.

"Sorry, I was late."

Li Qing said apologetically: "Before Young Master left, he entrusted all his Xie's Mansion to me. I never thought that those people would act so quickly …"

Old Madame Xie got up from the bed and said gratefully: "Thank you, General Li."

Li Qing spoke a few more words of consolation to the Old Madame Xie. It was probably because Grand Guard Changning and Anyang City's appointment had not come through yet, so he was temporarily in charge of this matter. "Just in case, the two of you should take your families out to hide first."

"General Li's words are reasonable."

Xie Xuan stepped through the door and entered, "Grandmother will still bring Xiaoliu to hide first. With me in the house, they will definitely be unable to return."

Li Qing and Old Madame Xie couldn't help but frown. Xie Xuan, this youth, was originally just looking at them silently, but now he seemed a little too sinister and ruthless.

"Today, right after Eldest Brother went to the Dijing, someone attacked someone from the Xie's Mansion. We definitely cannot sit and wait for death to come, Third Brother's words are indeed feasible."

Letting the old lady bring the two little ones out to hide for a while, Xie Xuan would guard the Xie's Mansion to deal with those hidden arrows. With this person's deep thoughts, perhaps he could make Xie Heng's situation with the Dijing better.

Old Madame Xie said: "You guys go out first, I have something to say to General Li alone."

Wen Jiu and Xie Xuan looked at each other for a moment, then withdrew their gazes and retreated.

The stench of blood permeated the entire courtyard. Wen Jiu walked over to the side of the attendant who was still in grievance to his death and closed his eyes.

It was obvious that not long ago, he was still busy in the Manor. Such a young life, in the eyes of those people, was nothing more than an ant in a game of chess.

Xie Xuan stood behind her, and said with a cold voice. "Wen Jiu, do you want to escape by yourself?"

Wen Jiu turned his head around with a puzzled expression.

"You didn't mention yourself when you persuaded your grandmother."

Xie Xuan's voice was very stiff, and her gaze landed on her body with a cold expression, "You didn't say whether you wanted to stay in the Palace, or if you wanted to follow them. Wen Jiu, do you think that since you haven't paid your respects to your fifth brother, you aren't considered Xie Family? You want to leave, don't you? "

He did not know if it was just an illusion on Wen Jiu's part, but the current Xie Xuan looked to be at a loss. He wanted to keep her, but he didn't know what to say. The moment he opened his mouth, he pushed her even further away.

Only then did Wen Jiu remember.

The current Xie Xuan, was also only a seventeen year old youngster.

She looked at him, her eyes shining like the stars, "I will take a trip to Dijing, if I can save elder brother's life, then Xie's Mansion will be saved as well."
