Chapter 183 Not good
The old lady then sat on the chair with the help of the nanny.
She said in an angry but helpless voice: "I really don't understand what's so good about that Gu Meizi that makes you so depressed and think about taking her back all day long."
"I don't want to hear your words that you must have Shen Wei. As long as I'm alive, there's no chance for the two of you. I will never allow that woman to enter the Marquis' Mansion!"
"I just want to ask you, do you still want to maintain the honor of the Marquis' Mansion?"
Xie Yuchuan frowned and looked unhappy.
why?
Why does his mother force him like this?
It's bad enough that Qin Shuyu is jealous and petty, but why can't even her mother help her?
Obviously, as long as he insisted, Shen Wei and his people would never leave the house. How could a group of commoners fight against aristocratic families? At that time, Shen Wei would be willing to stay in the house.
Once he talks things out and the two of them reconcile, they can live in harmony forever.
But unfortunately——
He is a marquis, but he can't even keep the woman he likes!
When Madam Hou saw her son frowning, she knew what he was thinking. She sighed softly, her tone filled with anger and helplessness.
"News came from outside that the Huns are invading and a large number of people are displaced."
"The emperor is furious that the Xiongnu did not abide by the contract and has sent troops to attack them."
"Your various absurd behaviors have already displeased many people in the capital. Our political enemies are hiding nearby, ready to report you at any time."
"At this moment, whether for public or private reasons, you should put aside your romantic feelings. If you can make achievements again, the Marquisate can be preserved for a long time."
"By then, let alone one Shen Wei, even if there are ten or a hundred of them, what can they do? Who in the capital will dare to say anything bad about you?"
When Xie Yuchuan heard the last sentence, his eyes gradually became sharper.
By this time he was completely sober.
He remembered that he met Shen Wei on the battlefield, remembered the glory and heroism of the past, and remembered Shen Wei's loving and admiring eyes.
Yes, when he reaches a higher level, will Shen Wei change his mind?
She cares so much about her reputation, her family background, and money. She opens a shop in public. Isn't it just to live a rich life?
Isn't it because she feels that he can't give her the status she wants that she goes out and does all these embarrassing things?
If he could win this battle and be crowned king...
Xie Yuchuan took a deep breath, stood up from the ground with the help of the servant, then walked to the old lady Hou and said, "Mother is right. If I can make another military achievement, the reputation of the Hou Mansion will be preserved for a hundred years."
"When the Huns invade, we must fight bravely against them."
"Not to mention that I am a marquis appointed by the emperor himself. I have no choice but to accept this honor."
Seeing her son's ambitions, Mrs. Hou couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
"Well, this is my good son."
"General Gongming has already led his troops to set out earlier. The emperor is also planning to send another deputy commander to lead 10,000 light cavalry to attack the Xiongnu from both sides with General Gongming."
"With General Gongming in command, the Xiongnu will surely flee in panic."
General Gongming is a victorious general who has never lost a battle.
Everyone heard that the army led by General Gongming was the main force, and the 10,000 light cavalry was the deputy. This was obviously an attempt to take advantage of General Gongming's momentum to rise to the top.
With such a good thing, no matter whether it is the clan members, the nobles in the court, or the noble families with three generations of dukes, they are all determined to get the position of deputy commander.
