What if the Emperor heard about it?
Don’t worry, if it doesn’t reach the Emperor’s ears, the Emperor will still feel bad.
Xie Xian was a broad-minded person, so he didn’t want Xiao Baoxin to take it to heart.” “This is reality. There’s no other way. No one can deny the truth. I don’t care what they think.”
” As for how he came to me,” he laughed.” Anakui maybe straightforward, but he’s not stupid.”
Furthermore, he had a friend who was familiar with the history of Daliang, the Yiyang County Head. It would be strange if he did not know that he was a man of his word in Daliang.
Very soon, Xie Xian threw this matter to the back of his mind and asked about Xiao Baoxin’s health as per his daily routine.
Fortunately, the answers given by Xiao Baoxin were all good. Xie Xian did not even dare to imagine what kind of stimulation he would receive if the answers were different one day.
“He didn’t talk to you?”
“.. Sometimes, I even think that if there really is a soul reincarnated, then he will carry the memories of his previous life in your stomach. He will bean adult or an old man who can communicate with you…” Xie Xian shrugged.” Are you trying to get rid of the muddleheaded soul in your stomach? Maybe I’m thinking too much.”
“Life is actually very strange.”
Xiao Baoxin laughed dryly. At the mention of the baby in her stomach, she felt inexplicably guilty.
Why was Xie Xian always thinking so much, so miscellaneous, so whimsical to the point of accurately predicting Xie Yanl?
This person was poisonous!
“.. Let’s eat. I’m hungry. You haven’t eaten yet.”
Xie Xian placed his hand on her protruding belly and teased,”You’re still not
full after eating so many grapes?”
“I can still eat you whole.”Xiao Baoxin’s smile was a little sinister. Not to mention her appetite, she was still a good friend.
Did he know how difficult it was for her to control her appetite?
It was strange. Once she was pregnant, her appetite was amazing. She craved everything she saw and heard. Fortunately, there was still Madam Cai at home. She had been puffy for more than a year after giving birth. Her body, which had not recovered, would shine in front other eyes from time to time, constantly reminding her of her mistakes.
Take history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall of the country; Take people as a mirror, you can understand the gains and losses.
The ancients did not deceive me!
When he heard this, he knew that Xiao Baoxin had been angered. Xie Xian leaned over in satisfaction and kissed her warm lips.”Alright, let’s eat. The happiest thing I do every day is eating with you, Nora.”
Xiao Baoxin snorted and did not chase after him.
“Are you coming to my house tomorrow? When the time comes, you can ‘persuade’ Baoshu to stop doing this. Sooner or later, the heavens will be angry and the people will be resentful.”
If it wasn’t for the fact that it was inconvenient for her to do it now and she was afraid that she would stretch her stomach, she really wouldn’t have to trouble him.
“Persuade? Why should I?” Xie Xian was unconcerned.” If he doesn’t do it, the Emperor will be angry and resentful.”
His gaze was meaningful.
“The Xiao family no longer needs another junior who understands the big picture, has outstanding military achievements, and is well-connected. I think Boshu is doing very well. He can be self-centered and make everyone feel at ease.”
“Boshu is doing very well, don’t worry. He’s my brother-in-law, the Emperor s brother-in-law. As long as he doesn’t poke a hole in the sky, there are plenty of people to protect him.”
She was at ease?
She had always felt that Xiao Baoshu should have grown up, but in the end, he returned to his original state when he returned to Jiankang. Xie Xian must have been involved in this.
Perhaps she should have known!
This time, Xiao Baoshu was not the one who did it. It seemed that the Emperor and Xie Xian were secretly supporting him…
How could this be better?
Under his grief and indignation, Xiao Baoxin finally broke through the diet that he had deliberately reduced in the past and ate three large pieces of meat pie. She was so full that she wanted to die, but her heart was filled with a lot.
###
The next day after the court session, Xie Xian brought Xiao Baoxin back to Sikong Xiao’s residence.
They were all used to Sikong Xiao’s character and knew the emperor’s intention. Sikong Xiao was going to go to war that day, so there was no low atmosphere in the Xiao manor. Madam Xie was the only one who always wanted Sikong Xiao to retire and enjoy his life. Because Xiao Baoshu stayed in Jiankang and did not follow him, her mentality was not as empty as last time. But thinking about it, it was unknown whether it was a blessing or a curse for Xiao Baoshu to stay in Jiankang.
At least the last time Sikong Xiao went out to war, the Xiao siblings, this pair of male and female devils, had ruined the reputation of the Xiao family.
Although Xiao Baoxin had married off and brought harm to the Xie family, Xiao Baoshu had also made contributions on the battlefield. He was confident and did not have a biological father or sister to guard the house. Madam Xie did not feel down in her heart. She did not know whether to be happy or sad.
She knew that she had no strength in front of Xiao Baoshu. Of course, it was not that Xiao Baoshu was disrespectful to her mother, but-who asked her not to know kung fu and not be able to beat Xiao Baoshu?!
When Xiao Baoxin returned to his mother’s house, he didn’t say much to Sikong Xiao. Instead, he was dragged along by Madam Xie to complain.
This made Xiao Baoxin speechless. She couldn’t possibly tell Xie Xian’s plan to Madam Xie. Others might not know, but as a daughter, she knew that her own mother’s will was not firm. She did not have the door to speak, but she could reveal everything with just a few words.
“Don’t worry, mother, I’m here. If Baoshu causes trouble again, send someone to the Xie family to find me, I’ll teach him a lesson!”
She couldn’t say anything else, but she still threw out her comforting words as if they were free. She supported Madam Xie’s waist until it was straight.
Madam Xie:
“Now that you have a body, can you still beat him up like before? I’m afraid you’ll hurt me if you move your finger, as if I dare to let you touch me.
She really wanted her to teach Xiao Baoshu a lesson personally. The regret in her words was too obvious.
“..Why did you ask your father to go to Xuzhou again? He didn’t want to be a Sikong, but he had to be a provincial governor. He definitely wouldn’t be able to make it back in time for Baoshu and the princess’s wedding.”
Madam Xie only realized it later, and her face turned pale with fright.”Could it be that Baoshu is too good at causing trouble and angered the emperor, so the emperor changed his attitude and found trouble with our family?” Sikong Xiao didn’t have time to tell Madam Xie in detail when he received the edict. Besides, Sikong Xiao wasn’t the type to tell his wife everything. He wouldn’t give her anything more than 0.5.
Madam Xie was also a pure housewife without any political sensitivity. The conclusions she came up with did not even cross her mind. She said whatever she thought.
“Can it be?”
“No.” “Didn’t Rouran have a new king?” Xiao Baoxin whispered. The Emperor was worried that without Rouran’s control, there would be changes in Northern Wu. If they attacked Xuzhou, Daliang would be caught off guard.”
“Father is the ever-victorious general of Daliang. If we’re talking about war, it must be Father. That’s why I asked Father to go. This was only temporary. In the future, the court would choose a suitable candidate to replace Abba. After all, he was a great Sikong. It was impossible for him to stay in Xu Prefecture as the provincial governor.”
Moreover, Emperor Xie Xian would not allow the Xie Clan to have two provincial governors who led troops. Of course, he did not need to tell this to Madam Xie.
