No matter what he wanted to do in the future, he had to risk his life to prevent the Crown Prince from ascending the throne!
Sikong Xiao first set a small goal.
For Sikong Xiao, who was used to playing with open schemes and killing enemies openly, this was actually a difficult problem. It would not be good if he rushed into the Eastern Palace and killed the Crown Prince right after the Emperor passed away. If that was the case, he would die no matter who ascended the throne. He was a traitor.
However, if he wanted to play tricks, he was too self-aware. He was simply not a match for those old foxes in the court.
If you want to change the crown prince, you can change it. Do you think you are the emperor?
—Rebel and traitor, and death.
His daughter had given him a difficult problem.
With his IQj he had to continue playing the game of fighting for the throne.
“.. Sigh. Sikong Xiao let out a long sigh. His daughter had already predicted the future for him. If he couldn’t even change the trajectory of his death, wouldn’t it be a little too unreasonable?
Xiao Baoxin poured a cup of tea and handed it over. Sikong Xiao drank it all in one gulp.
He poured another cup and downed it in one gulp.
Just like that, the pot of tea was emptied in an instant.
“Abba, don’t be impatient. We have a lot of time, let’s take a long time to plan.”Xiao Baoxin comforted her gently. She knew that her father was a loyal and hot-blooded person. He often talked about loyalty, propriety, wisdom, and faith. He would never mess up the court and go against the trend to sit on the throne.
In fact, she did not want to be involved in such a turbulent storm. Her father was good at fighting and killing on the battlefield. In terms of scheming, any aristocratic family in Jiankang City would be more scheming than her father. They were aristocratic families with hundreds of years of accumulation. 99 out of 100 military books were in their hands. They were the ancestors of conspiracies, and her father could not beat them.
She only hoped that in the upcoming chaotic times, at least the Xiao family would have the ability to protect themselves. As for whether to be proactive or to protect herself, she left the choice to Sikong Xiao.
After all, the leader of the Xiao family was Sikong Xiao. She had only taken advantage of the prophet with her talent. She was not capable enough to control the entire Xiao family in this chaotic world.
This was also why she wanted to tell Sikong Xiao this secret in such a way.
If it had always been peaceful and prosperous, she might have carried this secret with her for the rest of her life and not let anyone know.
However, the reality was that Xiao Jing ‘ai had let her know about the future, and from this, she had learned about her father’s crisis. She could not be alone in the decline of the Xiao family and guard this secret for the rest of her life.
To her, family was more important than anything else.
Just like what Xiao Jing ‘ai had said, she had overestimated herself by trying to turn the tide and help the building collapse.
Yes, if it was her, she naturally wouldn’t. However, she was different from Xiao Jing ‘ai. Xiao Jing’ ai only thought about himself. He only wanted glory and the throne. However, she was not alone. She still had her father and the family behind her. They would protect the Xiao family together.
She did not dare to say that she would be able to kill anyone and protect the Daliang Empire for a hundred years if she mastered this skill, and the people would not suffer from the war. Just because he knew how to fight with his fists, he had the guts to control the world?
However, at least she could do something for her family. It would be better if she could benefit others.
However, it was only his heart and his best.
After telling Sikong Xiao all the secrets in her heart, Xiao Baoxin felt relaxed. It wasn’t that she had handed the heavy burden to someone else, but that someone else would shoulder this burden with her in the future.
Knowing that Sikong Xiao might need some time to digest this fact, Xiao Baoxin quietly closed the door and walked out. Unexpectedly, he was pulled by Madam Xie as soon as he walked out of the door. Xiao Baoshu, whose eyes were shining, and Xiao Baoshan, who was standing not far away with his hands behind his back, had a solemn expression.
“How was it? Did Abba beat you up? Sister, what did you just say? Why did Father laugh like that? Besides the birth of Andu, is there anything else in our family that is worthy of Father’s happiness?”Xiao Baoshu asked.
“Yeah.” There shouldn’t be anything happy at home. It’s all bad luck.
Although Madam Xie didn’t say anything, her face showed her approval.
Xiao Baoxin suddenly smiled. Seeing this family together, fighting each other to the point of chaos, and facing the outside world together when something happened felt pretty good. Especially since no one in this family could beat her except for her father. This feeling was too unrestrained.
“Father asked me if I believe in fate.”
Madam Xie was surprised. Doesn’t he believe in nothing?”
“Father believes in it. In the past, he would kowtow to Bodhisattva and offer incense to temples.”Xiao Baoshan replied,” When 1 married my wife, it was me and Father who went to the temple to find the old monk to read her birth characters.”
Madam Xie was instantly thrown into confusion. She was a pure and innocent young lady who had yet to marry, yet she had chosen such a widower who had a child with him. He actually didn’t nod his head and agree immediately. Instead, he carried her into the house with eight carriages and actually went to approve her birth characters.
Did he not plan to take her in?
Pah, you old fool, you picked up a bargain and tried to act cute.
Madam Xie turned around and went back to the house to settle the score with Sikong Xiao.
Leaving behind the three siblings, Xiao Baoshan looked at each other in dismay. He felt embarrassed, as if he had said something wrong.
“Eight characters are very compatible with the wife…” Wangfu.”
“I can see that.” Xiao Baoxin chuckled.”
What kind of official position was his father originally? Now that he was one of the three dukes, how could he be prosperous? He was already sitting on a volcanic eruption.
No one knew how Madam Xie went to find Sikong Xiao, and no one wanted to know, so the three siblings went their separate ways. By dinner time, Sikong Xiao and his wife had returned to normal as if nothing had happened.
The only thing that surprised Xiao Baoxin was that Sikong Xiao beat up the second master of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhongcheng.
He kicked his leg and it was swollen. He had rushed over to greet his elder brother, but he was kicked back.
Madam Xiao didn’t even dare to breathe. Xiao Miaorong was so frightened that she hid behind her mother.
“Did my daughter let your daughter bully her like this? It was clearly the proposal to the auntie, why did Second Mother come to the door and throw herself into her arms, and even asked the emperor to bestow marriage? The emperor didn’t care about this lawless thing, but you agreed quickly. Second Lord Xiao, now that you’ve grown wings, you know how to act first before reporting. Do you think I can’t do anything to you?”
“Hurry up and pack your things and get lost. We’ll split up and find a house to move out of the Xiao residence within a month!”
“Big, big, big uncle, violence can’t solve the problem…” Madam Xiao tried to persuade him, her forehead sweating.
She knew that Eldest Uncle had a bad temper mostly from Madam Xie, but she had never seen it in person. He had always been kind and amiable, but his voice was a little rough and loud. Such a fight today was something that had never happened before.
In the past, Sikong Xiao had always been the one to decide everything in the Xiao family, and no one had ever dared to disobey him.
Sikong Xiao:” That’s why I didn’t kick Second Brother Xiao out of the mansion. I’ll give you time to move.. It starts from today, August 14th!””
