Chapter 168 Who said she didn't
"Master Hu, although the law stipulates this, there is still room for maneuver."
"Qian'er is a concubine's daughter and has never been included in the Xia family's genealogy. Yang'er is Liu Ying's only son. According to the law, a woman who is homeless, mourns for her husband's family for three years, and whose family becomes poor and rich after marriage cannot be divorced."
"If we force Yang'er and Qian'er to stay in Xia's house now, how is this different from Liu Ying being divorced?"
Xia Liu’s calculations were good, but that didn’t mean Tu Ling would give in.
Xia Liu would ask someone about the law, and so would Tu Ling.
"This..." Hu Yuan is in a difficult situation now. His parents are divorced, and it is a difficult problem as to who the child should belong to. And he happened to run into such a wealthy family.
Tu Song and Shen kept staring at Hu Yuan. Hu Yuan couldn't make a conclusion now and could only pretend to think and find a solution.
Xia Liu was also very anxious. This Tu Ling really didn't know what was good for him! He actually wanted to take his children away!
Suddenly, Xia Liu had an idea and said loudly: "Sir, it is reasonable to give the children to their mother as they are underage. However, Liu Ying has been without a father or a mother for so many years and has no source of money. How can she take care of two children!"
Liu Ying was shocked. This was the reason why Liu Ying had not left.
Liu Ying has no father or mother, so Xia Liu dares to be so unscrupulous.
Liu Ying is not a lady from a noble family, and because she married into the Xia Mansion, she has to live on the little monthly salary from the mansion. How will she support her children after she leaves?
Liu Ying now felt as if she had fallen into an icy cave, and the hand that was holding Tu Ling felt extremely cold.
Although Tu Ling was ready to help her leave at that time, Liu Ying finally chose to stay in the Xia Mansion in order not to implicate Tu Ling and because she was reluctant to leave the baby in her belly.
Unexpectedly, more than ten years later, Xia Liu used this evidence to separate her and her son.
"Xia Liu, who is responsible for all this? Don't you really know?" Before Tu Ling could speak, Shen had already stood up.
As a woman, Shen understood Liu Ying's difficulties better than Tu Song and Xia Zhibai.
Xia Liu had no regrets at all, and was even a little complacent. No matter how much Tu Ling wanted to help Liu Ying leave, he could not take his children away.
"Your Excellency, it's not like the eldest aunt doesn't have any income at all." An unexpected voice came from the door.
The servant's voice then rang out: "His Royal Highness Prince Luo has arrived!"
King Luo! Mo Chen!
Tu Song didn't react much, but Xia Liu looked at Mo Yuyang in panic.
Mo Fuyang's expression couldn't be uglier. Even Xia Pinxiang, who was standing by, could sense Mo Fuyang's sense of crisis.
Hu Yuan struggled even more. Originally, having Prince Yuan was enough for him to deal with, and now Prince Luo was involved.
No matter how reluctant they were, everyone except Mo Yuyang had to stand up and salute Mo Yuchen: "Greetings, His Royal Highness Prince Luo."
Mo Yuchen strode in, raised his right hand casually, and smiled faintly: "No need to be polite, everyone."
Xia Pinxiang had already stood up. Mo Yuchen seemed to have just noticed that Xia Pinxiang and Mo Yuyang were also there. He looked surprised and asked, "My royal brother and concubine are here too? Didn't my father let my royal brother rest in the mansion these days? Why did my royal brother come to the Xia Mansion? Did my father allow my royal brother to move around?"
The moment Mo Fuchen opened his mouth, he was hitting the nail on the head for Mo Fuyang. No matter how angry Mo Fuyang was, he couldn't say anything now.
Mo Fuyang dared to support Xia Liu because he knew that even if the Right Prime Minister saw him leaving the mansion against the order, he would not say anything. But Mo Fuchen was different.
To a certain extent, it can be said that Mo Fuchen was responsible for Mo Fuyang's house arrest. Now that Mo Fuchen has discovered that he was disobeying his orders, doesn't that mean he has put the evidence in Mo Fuchen's hands?
"That's right. The house is depressed, so it's understandable for my brother to go out and relax. Even if father knew about it, he wouldn't say anything." Mo Fuchen seemed to think that there was nothing wrong with Mo Fuyang leaving the house, and he even took the initiative to find excuses for Mo Fuyang.
Mo Yuyang smiled awkwardly, thinking quickly about how to respond: "Speaking of which, why did the second prince suddenly come to the Xia Mansion?"
"I heard that Madam Tu was going to divorce the Minister of Rites, so I came here specially to see if there is anything I can help with." Mo Yuchen smiled slightly. He did not come here secretly. People outside saw Mo Yuchen enter the Xia Mansion with their own eyes.
Although the conversation between Mo Yuyang and Mo Yuchen was brief, everyone could smell the faint smell of gunpowder.
But the important thing at the moment is not this, but how to take Liu Ying and the other two away.
Tu Song calmly brought the matter back on track: "Since Your Highness Prince Luo said that the eldest concubine is not without any income, then could Your Highness please explain it clearly."
Mo Yuchen lifted the tea brought by the servant and blew a puff of hot air gently: "Although the eldest aunt is a concubine and lives on the Xia Mansion, Madam Tu should have prepared a dowry, which must have included fields and shops. Besides that..."
Mo Yuchen paused deliberately and looked at Yang Jin: "As long as these dowries are not touched by others, they should still be counted as the financial income of the aunt."
As expected, Yang Jin's face turned panic for a moment.
"Also, I remember that the third lady also prepared some real estate and shops for the sixth lady. Now that the sixth lady has not yet reached the age of marriage, it should be the eldest aunt who takes care of her." This was the important reason why Mo Yuchen rushed to the Xia Mansion today.
Xia Qianxiang was stunned. What...when?
Not to mention Xia Qianxiang, even Tu Ling and Liu Ying didn't know about this.
But this basis gave them a great advantage.
"By this calculation, Liu Ying is not without income. It is enough to support two children." Tu Ling hurriedly emphasized this matter while the iron was hot.
Hu Yuan carefully glanced at Mo Yuyang's extremely dark face, and he really didn't know whether now was the time to make a conclusion.
Mo Yuchen noticed Hu Yuan's little move and reminded him, "Master Hu, is this enough?"
Hu Yuan immediately withdrew his gaze and happened to see the way Mo Yuchen was staring at him.
Hu Yuan cleared his throat and acted impartially: "Your Highness Prince Luo has enough evidence, but if the eldest concubine takes both children away, then the Minister will be without two children at once. This is not appropriate."
"Doesn't the Minister have a concubine's daughter and a concubine's son?" Shen's face was full of impatience, and she took a few steps on the spot, "Liu Ying only has these two children, do you want to keep another one?"
Moreover, no matter which one is left behind, it will be a huge blow to Liu Ying.
Speaking of which, this can be considered as Xia Liu's brilliance.
As long as a woman has a child, she naturally cannot be so cruel. This is true for Tu Ling and Liu Ying.
