Qiao Jinniang returned to the small courtyard behind the Hundred Savory restaurant and pulled Qiao Ruoyi into the study:
“Are you crazy? You promised Xie Yun to give him Nichang? Back then, he didn’t want this daughter. Now that he’s given nichang to him, aren’t you afraid that Nichang will hate you?”
Qiao ruoyi said, “Sister, the Xie family is the current head of the aristocratic family. There are still some weak aristocratic families with the Xie family as the head. They want the Xie family to restore the glory of the aristocratic family. If Xie Yun dispels the private army of the Xie family, this is a good thing for the country and the people!”
Qiao jinniang frowned and said, “You should trust Lu Chen. It’s not that the imperial court can’t get rid of the private army of the Xie family. It’s just that back then, when Lu Chen was in Lin ‘an, he received a lot of care from Xie Yun. Lu Chen only cares about relationships.
