Chapter 168 1 Family Drama Queen
Xie Xiu was rescued quickly, but for some reason, he remained unconscious.
The Imperial College immediately sent people to Xie's house and Xie's mansion to report the news.
Xie's house was close by, so Tu Jiaojiao received the news first.
She was so frightened that her face turned pale and she immediately rushed to the Imperial College.
Because the noise was quite loud, the eldest princess and Situ Yuan who lived next door also heard the news.
Situ Yuan subconsciously looked at Xie Ying, and seeing that she was not panicked at all, but rather a little excited, he immediately made a guess.
"Mom, something happened to Yingying's father, let's go check it out!"
The eldest princess frowned and instinctively refused: "Yuan'er, don't make trouble. Madam Tu has already rushed over. It's not appropriate for us to go there."
Xie Xiu was pushed into the water by Xie Yi. After all, this was a family affair of the Xie family, and the discord between brothers was very shameful after all.
As the eldest princess, it is inappropriate for her to rashly interfere in the family affairs of her subjects.
Seeing that she refused to agree, Situ Yuan deliberately asked Xie Ying: "Yingying, your father is in trouble. Do you want to go see him?"
The eldest princess immediately found it funny. How old was Xie Ying? How could she possibly understand all this?
But Xie Ying suddenly pouted and looked at her and Situ Yuan with tears in her eyes.
The princess was so distressed that she quickly hugged her in her arms and complained to Situ Yuan: "It's all your fault. Why did you say all this to Yingying? You made Yingying cry!"
Situ Yuan secretly glanced at Xie Ying and couldn't help but criticize in his heart: Has this guy practiced for this? Tears just come like that! With such acting skills, he actually has the nerve to call him fake! Humph!
"Mother, Yingying must be worried about her father. Let's go to the Imperial College to check on him. Her father was pushed into the water by someone. How pitiful."
The eldest princess was at her wit's end, and seeing that Xie Ying was so pitiful, she had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, okay, I'll go there myself. I really can't do anything to you."
At the same time, Xie Mansion.
Xie Yunzheng and Chen Fang were discussing Xie Jia's marriage, when suddenly someone came to report that Xie Yi had pushed Xie Xiu into the lotus pond in the Imperial College. Although Xie Xiu was rescued, he remained unconscious!
The two of them were so shocked that their faces changed drastically!
Chen Fang retorted almost subconsciously, "Impossible! Yi'er is the most respectful person, respecting her brothers and caring for her siblings. How could she push Xie Xiu away? There must be something fishy going on!"
She looked at Xie Yun, "Master, I'm afraid Yi'er has fallen into someone's trap!"
The first person she suspected was Xie Xiu, but Xie Xiu was unconscious. If she said this, it would make her, as a stepmother, seem mean.
Xie Yun also suspected Xie Xiu, but he would not say it out loud.
He just said hurriedly: "I'll go to the Imperial College and see what's going on!"
Chen Fang immediately said, "Then I will go with you! Yi'er has been plotted against, and Xiu'er is unconscious. I am really worried."
Xie Yun looked at her pale face and did not refuse.
Chen Fang looked sick, and going to the Imperial College had a better effect.
So the two of them hurried to the Imperial College.
And the other side.
Tu Jiaojiao and Tu Yong arrived at the Imperial College first.
As soon as the two entered the room, they saw Xie Xiu lying unconscious on the couch, with a doctor examining him.
Xie Yi was standing guard by the side, soaked all over and looking extremely disheveled.
Tu Jiaojiao's eyes turned red, and she went up to him and slapped him hard, knocking him to the ground.
Xie Yi only felt a burning pain on his face, and his head was buzzing, making it impossible for him to think.
Before he could defend himself, he heard Tu Jiaojiao's angry question: "Why did you want to harm your eldest brother? He has been staying in the countryside for many years and can't remember his past. Why can't you tolerate him?"
Xie Yi felt as if a large basin of dirty water had been poured down on his head. He was so angry that he quickly tried to defend himself: "What do you mean, sister-in-law? When have I ever been unable to tolerate my brother?"
Tu Jiaojiao asked coldly, "If you can tolerate him, why do you deliberately push him into the water?"
How could Xie Yi still care about not letting the family disgrace become public at this moment?
He would rather let outsiders know that the Xie brothers are not in harmony than bear the stigma of harming his brother!
He immediately got up from the ground and explained with a face full of grief and indignation, "I never intended to push Big Brother into the water. Big Brother deliberately provoked me with words and then deliberately fell into the water..."
However, just as he said this, he suddenly heard a painful cough behind him.
Xie Yi's face changed drastically, and he quickly turned around to look. Sure enough, he saw Xie Xiu slowly opening his eyes.
He coughed painfully several times before looking around with a dazed look.
Tu Jiaojiao rushed forward excitedly, tears streaming down her face. She grabbed Xie Xiu's pale hands and cried bitterly, "Husband! You finally woke up! You scared me to death! Do you know how scared I was? If you didn't wake up, what would happen to me and the children?"
After saying that, she laid on Xie Xiu's chest and cried bitterly.
Thinking of the terrible future predicted by Xie Ying, Tu Jiaojiao cried more and more terrified.
Her grief-stricken and desperate cries made the people nearby feel sad and bitter, and they felt even more disgusted with Xie Yi.
Some people even couldn't help but shed tears in their eyes. Thinking of the rumors outside, they felt more sympathetic towards Xie Xiu.
But Xie Xiu coughed painfully a few more times, and then he comforted him in a hoarse voice: "I'm fine, don't worry."
After saying that, he looked at Xie Yi again. Xie Yi instantly became nervous and looked at him warily, subconsciously wanting to defend himself.
Unexpectedly, Xie Xiu suddenly asked, "Third brother, why are you all wet?"
Xie Yi's eyes turned cold, and he wanted to say that it was you who made him become like this, but he forced himself to hold back.
Unexpectedly, Xie Xiu suddenly said to Tu Jiaojiao, "Jiao Niang, don't blame Third Brother. My falling into the water this time has nothing to do with Third Brother. Ahem, it was my fault that I didn't stand firmly... Ahem... Ahem... Ahem... "
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present looked at Xie Yi with disdain.
It was clearly him who pushed Xie Xiu into the water, and everyone who was enjoying the view nearby saw it!
But he took advantage of the fact that Xie Xiu was unconscious and unable to defend himself to confuse right and wrong, slandering Xie Xiu, his elder brother, for deliberately plotting this!
Xie Xiu had just woken up and was so weak, yet he was still eager to defend his younger brother...
Xie Yi is simply insane and unworthy of being a scholar!
Everyone soon remembered that Xie Xin had kicked his younger brother and injured him, which had angered the old master of the Xie family.
At that time, they felt that Xie Xin was too cruel.
Even if the younger brother is a concubine's son, he is only five years old and cannot choose his own birth. How can he be blamed for such an identity?
Xie Xin could even cruelly kick down such a young brother, which shows that he has a heart like a wolf, cruel and violent!
I thought Xie Yi was a good person, not as vicious as Xie Xin.
Now it seems that he and Xie Xin are indeed brothers from the same mother!
They are equally cruel and ruthless to their half-brothers!
Xie Yi noticed everyone's gazes, and felt as if something exploded in his head!
He actually became the target of public criticism!
He turned his head stiffly and looked at Xie Xiu.
Seeing him lying on the couch with a pale face, his wet black hair sticking to his scalp in a mess, he looked even weaker and more vulnerable.
He really was born with a good appearance. Even though he was nearly thirty years old, he looked very young.
Now that it has fallen into the water, it has a kind of fragile beauty.
However, such beauty made Xie Yi feel deeply frightened!
He had never been so afraid of his half-brother as he was now.
But now, Xie Xiu was lying there with pale skin and water vapor all over his body. In his eyes, he looked just like a water ghost in a strange story book!
Is he really still alive?
Or has he already become a water ghost and came back this time just to seek revenge on them?
Although Chen Fang never mentioned the past, Xie Yi was not stupid. He had already pieced together the truth of that year from the fragments he occasionally heard.
But the incident had already happened, and Chen Fang was his biological mother, so he could only pretend to be ignorant.
Now, has Xie Xiu returned for revenge?
He was afraid that he had not lost his memory at all, but was just using it as an excuse to cover up his unfilial behavior of not having any news from him for all these years, and to lower their vigilance.
What a good plan!
That book "Dream of the Mandarin Ducks" and the arson attack on Qu's house were both written by him, right?
Now she's deliberately plotting against him and pushing him into trouble, then pretending to be a good guy to completely destroy the good reputation he's worked so hard to build over the years!
What a good big brother he is!
If my second brother had such a scheming mind, I think he wouldn't have been schemed against by my mother for so many years.
However, since he has already guessed all the truth, Xie Xiu can forget about plotting against him!
In this world, Xie Xiu is not the only one who can act.
What's more, his father and mother will stand on his side.
He has many good friends who all trust him.
"Brother, you're being so hypocritical, aren't you just trying to use a self-torture tactic to solidify my reputation as the man who murdered you, your brother?"
Xie Yi suddenly sneered, "I know that Big Brother has not been able to recover his memory, but Big Brother, you absolutely shouldn't have relied on a storybook and those unfounded rumors to conclude that my mother murdered your biological mother. You're willing to injure yourself to get revenge on me!"
Just as he finished speaking, someone outside shouted, "Get out of the way! Scholar Xie and his wife are here!"
Xie Yi's eyes lit up, and he immediately felt at ease.
Now that his father and mother are here, it will be even more impossible for Xie Xiu to succeed!
He looked at Xie Xiu mockingly, wanting to see how panicked he was, but Xie Xiu looked at him fearlessly, with the corners of his pale lips slightly raised, as if he was mocking him.
Xie Yi suddenly felt panicky: What was he mocking?
Could it be that Xie Xiu has some hidden trump card?
