Chapter 189 I don't like it
Yuchi Sui and Shen Feng'an didn't look very happy. They had received Ming Xiu's letter a long time ago, which mentioned how Wei Xuan and Fu Ran's marriage came about.
It was the eldest princess who made it happen behind the scenes.
Even if the emperor decreed the marriage, it would not be a happy marriage.
It wasn't even a normal marriage. Fu Ran was helpless and homeless in the Princess's Mansion and was plotted against by the Princess. She also suffered a lot after marrying into the Duke of Wei's Mansion.
Shen Fengan couldn't stand it just thinking about this. There was no way she could give Wei Xuan a good face.
Even though the marriage was granted by the Emperor, they could only ask Him to issue another decree to allow them to divorce.
This is not an easy task.
A long-term plan is also needed.
"You don't have to force it." Yuchi Sui was only a marquis, not as powerful as a duke, but his power was in Xuzhou, and he didn't compete with Wei Xuan in the capital. "Huanhuan, have you ever been to see the house your brother rented in the capital?"
Fu Ran nodded.
"My brother has already taken me to see it."
"Okay, then you pack up tomorrow and move over to live with us for a few days." Yuchi Sui didn't need to ask Wei Xuan's opinion.
He was used to living in Xuzhou and didn't need to look at anyone's face.
Only in the mansion do you need to act according to Shen Feng'an's mood.
Fu Ran naturally agreed.
"Okay." She always had a faint smile on her face, and it could be seen that she was in a very happy mood.
"Ming Xiu, go find a few skilled doctors outside to take a good look at the wound on Huanhuan's face. Huanhuan, don't worry, our family is now familiar with each other. Your father and brother will protect you and will never let you suffer any grievances in the future." Shen Fengan comforted his daughter.
There is even hidden meaning in the words.
This is what is pointing at Wei Xuan.
Their daughter married him, yet she was badly injured.
That's because he is incompetent as a husband.
Wei Xuan's expression remained expressionless, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
He could see Fu Ran's joy.
Yes, she did not have a very happy life in the past. She had to suppress herself everywhere and was even suppressed by others. She rarely felt the love and care from others.
Now, she has finally reunited with her relatives, and she should be happy.
"It was Xiu Ning's negligence. I promise that I will never let her get hurt again." Wei Xuan needed to express his opinion.
Shen Fengan snorted lightly.
Mrs. Shen and Shen Yan tried to smooth things over.
The family stayed at the Shen Mansion for a while after having dinner. Yuchi then went to the rented house. Mingxiu had already made arrangements. They only needed to deliver the gifts they brought and they could stay there.
Mrs. Shen kept asking them to stay, but they still declined.
Yuchi Sui and Shen Feng'an both knew that Wei Lin proposed to divorce Shen Yan because of them.
Regardless of whether it was because of the incident caused by Ming Xiu here, it was ultimately related to them to some extent.
It's not necessary to live together.
Yuchi Xinxin had been following them around, busying herself with things, but she had no complaints.
But suddenly I saw that they recognized their biological daughter.
It makes her, the adopted daughter, seem dispensable.
The gap in her heart made her feel very uncomfortable.
In the past, her parents loved her and her brother protected her in every way, but now, it seems that Fu Ran is the only one in their eyes.
Now that the biological daughter has returned, the adopted daughter no longer needs to exist.
Yuchi Xinxin felt extremely heartbroken.
After dinner, Wei Xuan took Fu Ran and Wuyou back to Duke Weiguo’s Mansion.
Fu Ran didn't want to go back, and Shen Fengan didn't want her to go back either.
But it is really hard to find a reason to keep Fu Ran. After all, she is still Wei Xuan's legitimate wife.
On the way back, Fu Ran was very silent.
Wuyou played for a while and then fell asleep.
Wei Xuan took it and held it in his arms.
The child has a faint fragrance, which is very pleasant.
She is so soft that people dare not hug her hard.
"I'll go with you tomorrow," he said suddenly.
Fu Ran looked up at him, feeling a little puzzled: "You have already had a day off today, and you still have important matters to deal with tomorrow. You don't have to accompany me. Qiao'er is with me, so it will be fine."
She didn't want him to follow.
Wei Xuan didn't care.
"It doesn't matter."
"The Daliang delegation hasn't left yet, and you are the one ordered to entertain the delegation. If you're not there every day, wouldn't that be embarrassing for the head of the Ministry of Rites?" she reminded him.
Could it be that he had forgotten that he still had a mission?
Besides, he is going to have a grand wedding with Ruhui, so how could he really be okay?
Wei Xuan paused.
This is indeed his duty.
He needed to escort the Daliang delegation out of Dayue Kingdom safely.
"It's okay. I'll take you there tomorrow and pick you up later." Yuchi Sui didn't have much contact with him, and Shen Fengan had even less contact with him.
Right now, it seems that the two of them are very dissatisfied with him.
They dislike him as a son-in-law, which is not a good sign.
He hopes for a stable marriage and a safe home for Wuyou. He has no interest in other women and does not want to take the position of the Duke of Weiguo's wife.
"There's really no need to go through so much trouble. We have Qiao'er..." She thought of Qian Wu, "How is Qian Wu?" and Cheng Jiang.
"You need to take good care of yourself for some time. During this time, I'll let Gao Mian stay with you." Wei Xuan said.
Fu Ran refused.
No need for high immunity.
"Gao Mian is someone you're used to having by your side, so there's no need to send him out. Let the golden guard come over." She didn't know many of the guards around Wei Xuan.
Gaomian, Bi'an, and this golden guard.
"Okay." Wei Xuan then arranged for Jin Zhao to temporarily replace Qian Wu's position.
After returning home, Fu Ran went to see Qian Wu. His injuries were indeed serious. It was not easy for him to survive. He didn't know whether he could continue to be on duty after he recovered.
Fu Ran felt a little sorry.
Cheng Jiang's injuries were not light either. He woke up and was very calm.
Knowing that he was in the Duke of Wei's Mansion and that Fu Ran had been rescued, he looked relaxed.
Alin was by his side taking care of him.
Since Ah Lin stayed that day, Cheng Jiang must have stayed as well. If they returned to the Princess's Mansion, I'm afraid neither of them would survive.
"Fu Ran, Madam, Cheng Jiang's injuries are quite serious, but his life is not in danger. He will be fine if he takes good care of himself. He has never been a talkative person, so please don't mind him." A Lin said.
Fu Ran shook his head.
They had been together for some time, and she knew Cheng Jiang's character well.
"Brother Cheng, you are my savior. You have saved me more than once. Don't worry, you will be my real brother from now on. Although I am not Su Su, I will treat you the same way as Su Su."
Cheng Jiang's eyes moved and turned red.
"No need." He shook his head. "Madam is of noble status, I cannot condescend to you. As long as you are fine, I am very lucky. If you don't mind, after Cheng Jiang recovers from his injury, I will do an idle job in the Duke of Weiguo's mansion, which will be a great favor."
Fu Ran was the wife of Duke Wei.
If he really did what Fu Ran said, he would become the brother-in-law of the Duke of Wei. How could a common man like him bear such a status?
He would never dare to do that.
