Chapter 521 - 521 This is the difference between you and me
521 This is the difference between you and me
Xiao Yuanshi found that not only was his bad daughter-in-law, Shi Qingluo, annoying, but his eldest son was also very annoying.
“Why are there so many Ge soldiers blocking the way?” She asked Xiao Hanzheng with a frown.
“Is the Ge Kingdom crazy?”
Xiao Hanzheng looked up at her and smiled. “Because my wife is valuable.”!!
Xiao Yuanshi was speechless.
His son had indeed been led astray by his bad daughter-in-law.
Even his words were becoming more and more alike.
He raised his eyebrows. “Do you think these people are all after your wife? Where do you get your confidence from?”
Although he had heard that the Ge Kingdom had besieged the town to kill the third prince and capture Shi Qingluo, he was more inclined to the first possibility.
Was it worth it for the Ge Kingdom to send out troops to intercept their rescue and besiege the town for a woman?
He was more convinced that they were after the defensive deployment map the third prince had.
Xiao Hanzheng took a sip of tea. “This is the difference between you and me.”
“Speak human language,” Xiao Yuanshi said in frustration.
He kept saying things he didn’t understand.
Xiao Hanzheng smiled. “You’re old, so your brain isn’t working well. I’m young, so I’m smarter than you.
“I can tell the key reason why the Ge Kingdom is in such a big mess, but you’re blindfolded.
“That’s why I’m able to get the emperor and Prince Jin’s attention. In the future, I’ll be able to climb up step by step, while you’ll continue to go downhill.”
He looked at his scumbag father with a faint smile. “This is the difference between you and me. Are you satisfied with this answer? ”
Xiao Yuanshi was speechless. Was this even human language?
He was furious. “Then I’ll see how you’re going to climb up step by step. Don’t fall down.”
Xiao Hanzheng glanced at him. “Well, just wait and see. It’ll definitely be a height that you can’t reach.”
He didn’t die young because of a chronic illness, so he wouldn’t use extreme means to destroy the Xiao family.
He wanted to let his scumbag father see how his abandoned son would be able to suppress him in the future, especially when he was about to die.
Xiao Yuanshi’s face darkened. “What a big mouth.”
In fact, he was a little uncertain in his heart.
This son of his was really beyond his expectations.
He didn’t want to admit that his son, whom he had once decisively abandoned, could walk ahead of him.
“Since the Ge people are after your wife,” he continued, “it’s your turn to do your best.
Xiao Hanzheng raised his eyebrows. “It’s not impossible.”
Then, he changed the topic. “But when we reach to the town, I have to tell Prince Yi that Deputy Governor Xiao was very perfunctory during the rescue and didn’t put in his best effort at all.
“He deliberately delayed the time. I don’t know if he has anything to do with the Ge Kingdom.”
Xiao Yuanshi was in disbelief, completely shocked by his son’s shamelessness.
What kind of language was that? Was he implying that he was colluding with the Ge Kingdom?
He would not admit to this crime.
He was furious. “I was the one who led my men to deal with the Ge army in this operation. You’re simply distorting the truth.”
“Then do you think Prince Yi will believe me or you?” Xiao Hanzheng sneered and asked.
“As long as I get a letter from Prince Yi, is the process important?”
Xiao Yuanshi retorted, “How is the process not important? ”
Xiao Hanzheng was still smiling, but there was no warmth in his eyes. “I don’t think it’s important.
“Just like that year when Concubine Ge said that my mother pushed her and caused her to have a miscarriage, you judged that it was my mother’s fault without asking about the process.
“It’s the same logic now.
“You can try if you don’t believe me. Let’s see who Prince Yi will believe,” he added.
Xiao Yuanshi was speechless.
His son was getting more and more shameless.
Where was his gentle and modest gentleman son? It was all a f * cking lie.
He wasn’t sure.
After all, he heard that Prince Yi had a good relationship with his son, and his son even took care of Prince Yi’s health.
There was a difference between relatives and strangers.
If his son really went to sow discord and talk nonsense, Prince Yi might really believe it.
Mdm Kong was like a little white rabbit.
How did they raise such a cunning and shameless son like Xiao Hanzheng?
He said through gritted teeth, “Alright, I’ll still be the general protecting you, the civil official.”
Prince Yi was deeply trusted by the emperor.
If he returned to the capital or sent a message to the emperor, saying that he had a connection with the Ge Kingdom, he would not be able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
Xiao Hanzheng’s smile brightened. Deputy Governor Xiao is really flexible. “You’re a smart person. No wonder you could climb so high before.
“Not bad. I’ll leave the rest to you.”
After he finished speaking, he picked up his teacup and leisurely got into the carriage.
This made Xiao Yuanshi so angry that he gnashed his teeth.
If they had not broken off their relationship, he would have taught his son a good lesson.
He also regretted that Liuru had a daughter.
If the child was a son, he would definitely teach the child to be polite to the elders and be a true gentleman.
He definitely could not be as black-hearted as his elder son and as sly as his younger son.
His eyes darkened at the thought of his son.
If he couldn’t be cured, he wouldn’t even be able to save his daughter, let alone his future son.
His hatred for Ge Chunru deepened.
He thought for a moment, but did not get on the horse.
Instead, he took the initiative to get into the carriage that Xiao Hanzheng was in.
Xiao Hanzheng saw his scumbag father squeeze into the carriage and immediately guessed what he wanted to do.
“My carriage is too small, ” he said first. “It can’t hold a great man like the deputy governor. Please ride your horse outside.”
Xiao Yuanshi took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. “I have something to tell you.”
Xiao Hanzheng glanced at him and said, “If you want me to treat you, I don’t have the time to do so.”
Xiao Yuanshi’s face turned dark and he looked embarrassed. “You knew it.”
Xiao Hanzheng chuckled. “Deputy governor, not only do I know that you were poisoned by your little wife and will not have any descendants, I also know that she stole the map you hid in exchange for her brother.
“Previously, my wife said you had the map, but you didn’t admit it. Now it’s been stolen.
“My wife and Old Lady Xiao have warned you before that your little wife is a jinx.
“You didn’t believe it, so you’ve tasted the consequences.”
Xiao Yuanshi was speechless. He was really speechless.
It couldn’t be helped. This was the truth and couldn’t be refuted.
The biggest mistake he had ever made in his life was being seduced by Ge Chunru and doing so many stupid things for her.
That woman was really a jinx.
He said unhappily, “Can we turn this over? I’ve already chased her out of the deputy governor’s office.”
His son and Shi Qingluo had become husband and wife, but he didn’t learn the good things.
Instead, he had learned to be direct in his speech and he was good at mocking others.
He really regretted coming to Heyang County.
Xiao Hanzheng shrugged his shoulders. “It’s none of my business whether you chase her out or not.
“I just wanted to say that you’ve lost your mind because of your lust.
“She stole such an important map and exchanged it for someone else. You’re really something.”
Xiao Yuanshi was speechless.
This kid really touched on his sore spot.
“You’re quite well-informed to even know this.”
He had lost the map, so he didn’t deny it.
He came to Heyang County this time not only to ask Xiao Hanzheng to help cure the disease, but also to cooperate with him.
