Look, the foolish Eldest Princess of Xuancheng had been used as a tool by the Xie family. The Eldest Princess of Daliang had stepped forward to cheer for the Xie family without even having to do anything personally.
However, they knew that they couldn’t afford to offend the Xie family now, and they didn’t want to cause trouble for themselves, so they whispered and laughed loudly.
The news of Shi Ning County Master’s defeat against Xiao Baoxin had already spread through the mouths of those young ladies.
However, no one took the initiative to provoke that group of people.
Originally, Xiao Baoxin was already a troublemaker. In this year, she had caused so many troubles. The Cai family had collapsed because of her. Moreover, there was still the foolish Eldest Princess of Xuancheng. There was also Xiao Baoshu, the young hero who had been popular in Jiankang City for more than a year.
With his return, all kinds of legends disappeared.
The unbearable memories of the past came back.
He was a little demon who tormented people. It was good to torture his enemies on the battlefield, but when he returned to Jiankang City, he was one of them, and this guy did not stop. Recruiting cats and playing with dogs, those who saw the sky were either scolding people or acknowledging a master.
In short, Xiao Baoxin was stirring up trouble in the circle of wealthy ladies in the back house, while her biological brother, Xiao Baoshu, was provoking and causing trouble outside.
Ordinary people couldn’t resist such a godly combination.
The saddest thing was that he still had the Emperor backing him up. If someone was bullied badly (in fact, it was the younger brother of the consorts sent to the palace by the various aristocratic families, the Emperor’s fake brother-in-law), they would complain and want the Emperor to uphold justice. In the end, the Emperor would only support Xiao Baoshu. If he were to get angry again, he would scold Xiao Baoshu and not even say a harsh word.
Where was the logic in this?
After sending off the Ninth Princess of Rouran, Xie Xian and the others walked all the way to the place where the ox-cart was parked. It was neither far nor near. These people who came out to play also consciously parked the ox-cart. Those whose family backgrounds and official positions were too far apart did not dare to approach.
However, Xie Xian’s group was not small. Adding on the servants that each of them brought along, there were five or six ox-carts parked there.
“Xie Pushe is in such a good mood to actually have the leisure to bring his family out to play.”The dozen or so people behind the Prince of Huaiyang had also just disembarked from the boat. They had made an appointment to take a night boat ride on the Qinhuai River. The normal Qixi Festival during the day had officially come to an end.
His family’s ox-cart was parked not far away. There were more than a dozen ox-carts in a grand manner.
On the left stood Yuan Chen and the red-eyed Ning County Head, while on the right stood the Princess Consort of Huaiyang, Wen Shi. She was not even twenty years old yet, but she had a slim waist and was as graceful as a willow tree. She didn’t have the temperament of a noble lady, but was very pitiful and moving.
Behind Madam Wen were all kinds of orioles and swallows in the Huaiyang Mansion.
Other than the Prince of Huaiyang, everyone else in the group was beautiful, including Yuan Chen. With a thin layer of makeup, they were not inferior to those weak women. It could be said that no one gave in to anyone else.
“Isn’t the Eleventh King the same…Bringing along a family?” “It’s rare for me to rest,” Xie Xian smiled.”
Yuan Chen’s expression changed instantly.
Actually, he had really misunderstood Xie Xian. Xie Xian really did not put him in his eyes. He was merely Prince Huaiyang’s male pet and could not be brought up to the table. When people said that he was bringing along his family, it meant what it meant. However, Yuan Chen had a guilty conscience. Xiao Baoxin had just publicly humiliated the Shi Ning County Head. He was certain that Xie Xian was insinuating something here, and he secretly hated him.
This couple was too much.
Princess Kang Le was also rejected by Xie Xian when she wanted to get him a job. They couldn’t stand seeing him doing well in everyway, and they would only be satisfied if he was trampled under their feet.
Yuan Chen regretted that he had arranged a marriage with Xiao Baoxin in the first place. If it hadn’t happened, there would never have been such a day today. He had been brought down by her.
“Why, does Xie Pushe have to be mentioned in the same breath as the Eleventh King?”
These words were heartbreaking. It meant that Xie Xian thought highly of himself and compared himself to the Imperial Family.
Kill the heart, kill ten thousand times.
Since when did the aristocratic families put the Imperial Family in their eyes?
Even though the aristocratic families had declined, not many people treated the royal family as a symbol of unattainable status.
Yuan Chen came from an aristocratic family, so it was impossible for him not to know. However, he had no good intentions when he brought these words to the table.
“What’s the matter? You’re not satisfied with being included in the ‘family’, right?”Xiao Baoshu didn’t care. He didn’t have Xie Xian’s self-restraint. When he saw Yuan Chen rebuking Xie Xian, he was furious.” How can you talk to my brother-in-law like that? Who are you?”
“Did I say anything wrong about you? Everyone in Jiankang City knows that you’re the Eleventh King’s male pet, and you’re still showing off with others. It’s fine if you’re thick-skinned, but you even brought your wife along. What are you thinking? You still have the cheek to shout at my brother-in-law? His face was thicker than the city wall. If I had known earlier, I would have sent you to the battlefield when the King of Guiyang attacked the city. You are invulnerable, so how many of us would have died!”
Although Xiao Baoshu’s face was no longer swollen, there were still bruises on his face. This was the mark of being beaten up. Even so, the eldest princess of Xuancheng still looked handsome no matter how she looked at it.
Langjun, you have to act like a Langjun.
Was she going to be like Yuan Chen, who was like a girl, putting on makeup and fighting for the market with the girls?
“Well said!” The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng cheered loudly.
He had torn off the loincloth of the King of Huaiyang.
Who didn’t know that Yuan Chen was his boy toy?
However, no one dared to expose this point in front of him. At least he was a prince. No matter how bad it was, he did not fall to the point of being pointed at and scolded by anyone.
Furthermore, there was still the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng adding fuel to the fire. Not only did the Princess Consort of Huaiyang and Yuan Chen blush.
The Prince of Huaiyang admitted that even with his good self-restraint, he couldn’t stand it anymore. His fat face fell.”Xiao Baoshu, don’t think that you’re so great just because you’ve fought a few battles. You dare to scold anyone! Did they really think that just because the Xiao and Xie Families were powerful, they would be lawless? When I led the troops to war, you were still wearing open-crotch pants- ”
“What nonsense are you spouting? Xiao Baoxin, you just can’t bear to see our Eighth Lang doing well, so you let your brother spread such rumors! You, you, you, you, you, shameless!” Shi Ning County Master roared,”
“It’s all because of you. You ruined Eighth Lang’s reputation everywhere, causing Eighth Lang’s reputation to be ruined. Why are you siblings still so unscrupulous in front of Imperial Uncle?!”
“Am I not a member of the royal family? Am I not a human?””
“What did Boshu say wrong?”
“Your Royal Highness, I hope you will have some self-respect! You are engaged to Xiao Baoshu. Although you will be a member of the Xiao family in the future, you are also the eldest princess of the royal family. You can’t disregard the face of the royal family because of this…”
He said it with a righteous tone.
Shi Ning County Head could tolerate her own grievances, but this concerned Yuan Chen’s reputation. As his wife and a diehard fan, she could not tolerate it!
She was Eighth Lang’s wife, and the Langjun she had been longing for had been ruined because of Xiao Baoxin’s annulment of the engagement. How could she not hate him?
“If you want to say who doesn’t care about the face of the Imperial Family, it’s the Eleventh King, right?”Xiao Baoshu smiled with a face that was beaten up.
King Huaiyang was completely furious.
