Xia Wan'er, fearing chaos, added fuel to the fire at this moment:
“Daddy, you absolutely cannot let this go easily! Just now, Xia Yuhan insisted that my mother is meddling in your affairs, things my mother shouldn’t know about. But Daddy, think carefully, is that even possible?”
“My mother has devoted herself to managing the entire Xia Manor for many years, diligently fulfilling her duties. How could she dare to overstep and interfere in your matters? If she were to overstep, she would have done so long ago; why wait until now?”
As Xia Wan'er spoke these words, she felt quite pleased: Xia Yuhan, I let you be arrogant and reckless! I will definitely make you pay for yesterday's grudge today!
Madam smiled slightly at her biological daughter’s words: Xia Wan'er truly understands her thoughts more and more…
She then continued from where Xia Wan'er left off—
“I’m sure the General heard all the rumors in the city when he returned home; they are all about Yu Han. I believe this child Yu Han must be afraid of being punished by the General, which is why she randomly placed the blame on Chen Yu. It’s been so many years that Chen Yu has taken care of them both; who would have thought she would be bitten back? The General must seek justice for Chen Yu!”
Her tone displayed a woman’s tenderness towards her husband, completely devoid of her previous fierce demeanor.
Her heartfelt words soon brought tears to her eyes…
Originally, Second Madam could continue to cling to the General and plead for Xia Yuhan, but after Madam and her daughter’s performance, she didn’t know how to proceed.
Xia Yuhan silently etched the expressions of Madam and her daughter into her heart, her brows furrowing slightly. The two of them were perfectly in sync, clearly intending to use the General’s hand to trap her!
Thinking of this, a hint of coldness flashed in Xia Yuhan's eyes!
“Daddy, Yu Han is willing to accept punishment! However, Yu Han’s wish…”
“Even if you don’t want it, I will get to the bottom of this! Someone, bring me a whip!”
No matter what, today Xia Yuhan will be punished; no one can change that! Of course, except for the Emperor! Otherwise, no one else can interfere in the affairs of Xia Manor!
Seeing this, the hidden smile in Madam's eyes deepened!
Just as General Xia's soldiers were about to drag Xia Yuhan away, Madam suddenly spoke up: “General, if Yu Han gets into trouble, it will damage the reputation of the entire Xia Manor. It would be better to invite more people to Xia Manor; this way we can show the outside world that Xia Manor maintains strict discipline and is not as rumored. Moreover, with your esteemed reputation, you can use this matter to intimidate those spreading bad rumors about Xia Manor.”
"Although family scandals should not be aired in public, with Yu Han causing such a commotion, the whole city knows about it, so there's no need to hide the shame." She wouldn't openly say something like wanting to drive them away!
When General Xia heard this, he felt it made some sense; it was time to rectify the bad atmosphere in Xia Manor! He didn't want outsiders to see them as a joke!
"Chen Yu, I trust you to handle things. Invite whoever needs to be invited! Remember to bring in the prominent people from the capital."
By giving them some benefits privately and using both kindness and authority, with their support as the vanguard for Xia Manor, he believed that soon enough, the rumors surrounding Xia Manor would die down! At that time, he could also give Longhui Prince an explanation!
Madam humbly responded, "General, I didn't know you were back so suddenly. I already went to invite the esteemed gentlemen from the capital to Xia Manor yesterday; they should be on their way now!"
"Mm, Chen Yu, I am increasingly reassured by your work! It seems handing over this household to you is the right choice!"
The cold demeanor that Madam once had had long disappeared; seeing the General like this made her smile even more gently and flatteringly: "All of this is thanks to the General; Chen Yu is merely doing her duty. For more chapters and updates, please visit."
Xia Yuhan scoffed inwardly: The ostentatious facade is just a means to use General Xia's hand to remove her, then secretly stir up trouble and completely drive them out of Xia Manor, right?
Madam, what a vicious tactic!
While lost in thought, someone came to report: "Reporting to the General, the most esteemed gentlemen from the capital are waiting outside. Should we let them in?"
"Quickly invite them in!"
Soon after, two or three dozen scholars who appeared knowledgeable and respected entered the hall of Xia Manor. For more chapters and updates, please visit.
"Gentlemen, thank you for your hard work. I, Xia Zhongguo, have invited you all here today to witness for me!"
"Please don't say that; the General is a pillar of the nation. Now that the General has matters at hand, we will certainly do our utmost! However, if the General wishes for us to cover for Second Sister, that might be..." replied an elderly gentleman with graying hair who walked at the front.
"Gentlemen, please rest assured that Zhongguo absolutely will not cover for any woman! Zhongguo only wishes for you gentlemen to witness what happens next!"
Xia Zhongguo, a general of the Azure Dragon Kingdom, has repeatedly led troops to repel foreign enemies and has become a beloved Guardian General among the people of Azure Dragon Kingdom. Now that General Xia is speaking humbly with them, how could they refuse?
Even if they found Xia Yuhan unpleasant or wanted to scoff at her, they would still hold back due to the supreme authority emanating from General Xia!
They were the most esteemed Teachers in the capital, and they always categorized women who did not cherish their chastity as lower-class individuals. They stubbornly believed that death was the only relief for such women!
Moreover, their visit to Xia Manor was well-known among many people. If anything happened to them, the reputation of Xia Manor would only worsen! Therefore, they could not possibly back down regarding the matter of Xia Yuhan's lost chastity!
General Xia did not waste any more words with them but waved his hand decisively: "Bring it on, I will personally administer thirty lashes!"
What? The General himself?
General Xia had fought fiercely on the battlefield for many years, unmatched in his bravery. He could not show favoritism in front of so many people; if he delivered those thirty lashes, it would surely mean death!
The esteemed gentlemen thought: If the General personally killed Xia Yuhan, who had tarnished the family name, outsiders would naturally have nothing to say. The rumors about Xia Manor would soon settle down, but it would be difficult for Xia Manor's reputation to recover in a short time!
The Second Madam's face turned pale, clearly frightened. If it weren't for her maid supporting her from the side, she would have collapsed long ago.
At this moment, all the maids in Xia Manor gathered together under Madam's hint. Xia Yuhan caught sight of Sun Liuxiang, dressed brightly among the crowd, and smiled faintly at her.
Sun Liuxiang immediately sensed Xia Yuhan's intense gaze. When she saw Xia Yuhan's harmless smile, her body froze: Who exactly is this Xia Yuhan? Why did she feel a sense of fear upon seeing that smile?
