You can only listen to what Xu Jing said. Once you get excited, it's hard to guarantee that you will do anything. You still have to remind him from time to time.
Zhao Xiyan knew what she knew, but she didn't tell the truth. She smiled at Xu Jingyan and said, "Will you really listen to me in everything from now on?"
When she smiled, she was as beautiful as a picture.
Xu Jing felt hot in his heart and nodded solemnly: "I'll listen to you."
Zhao Xiyan smiled and hummed: "Then you promise me first, no matter how disgusted Eunuch Ma is, you will hold back and don't fall out with Eunuch Ma."
...This is the disadvantage of being a childhood sweetheart. Nine times out of ten, what he has in mind cannot be hidden from her.
Xu Jing touched his nose with some sarcasm, and then whispered angrily: "This Ma Sansi, who smiles all day long, is actually shrewd, insidious, and very difficult to deal with."
"He brings two imperial doctors to see my father every day. It's been almost a month, and he has no intention of leaving back to the capital. He often uses knives to test and threaten me."
Xu Jing became more and more annoyed as he spoke, and snorted from his nose: "If my father hadn't stopped me, I would have been rude to him."
Xu Jing understood the meaning of her words, and felt so happy that the corners of his mouth almost reached behind his ears.
Xu Jing, who was high-spirited and high-spirited, rarely felt so depressed and helpless.
Inviting the Princess of Beihai to be the guest of honor is not only because of the appearance and dignity, but also because it means respecting the future mother-in-law.
"Those who rush and kill indiscriminately are bandits, and those who act recklessly will only bring trouble. My brother Chunsheng is both civil and military, brave and resourceful, and can act after making a decision. He is a real man."
"It's true that Ma Sansi is the prince's confidant. However, he is not the only one who needs to be around the prince. You spend a lot of money to bribe a little chamberlain to serve him, and let the little chamberlain always mention in front of him that the prince is about to ascend the throne."
Zhao Xiyan nodded slightly: "I have privately asked Song Shi to choose a small house for Wang Wei, aunt and nephew, which is closer to Zhaojiafang. If anything happens in the future, he can take care of her."
When Xu Jing heard "Brother Chunsheng", his heart felt numb and numb, his anger suddenly disappeared, and his brows relaxed: "Don't worry, I know the severity."
Zhao Xiyan's thoughts were clear and she spoke in an orderly manner.
Zhao Xiyan said softly: "I know you are unhappy. But getting angry for a moment is useless and will make things worse."
"Sister Yue Ya'er, am I too useless? I have to be patient when I meet Murong Shen, and I have to be patient with an eunuch."
Xu Jing grinned: "That's true. You know me best."
The Zhao family is the most prominent family in Beihai County, with a large number of members. With the support of the Zhao family, Wang Wei and her two children can be less bullied.
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled, thought for a while, and gave Xu Jing an idea: "Actually, Ma Sansi also has weaknesses. He is an eunuch, but he has a high self-esteem. He doesn't like gold and silver, but he likes antiques, calligraphy and paintings from the previous dynasty.
If you find some unique ancient books and famous calligraphy and paintings from the warehouse and send them to him, he won't refuse."
After a moment of pause, he suddenly sighed softly.
Zhao Xiyan's cheeks were a little red, but she did not deny it: "Wang Wei is also a poor girl. I asked the prince to intercede with General Zheng and give her and the two young children a way to survive."
Xu Jing felt excited when he heard this, and looked proud: "My sister Yue Ya'er is really smart and powerful."
Zhao Xiyan was not very happy: "On the day of my wedding, I'd better ask my eldest aunt to be the guest of honor!"
"Moreover, the two imperial doctors can secretly send some gold and silver so that they can slightly exaggerate the prince's illness."
But in Xu Jing's eyes, she is the best girl in the world. He respects her from the bottom of his heart and listens to her words carefully. He can only be filled with joy when she makes suggestions for him.
Then, he met his own father's slightly teasing and understanding look: "Have you gone to the Beihai Palace to meet the crown prince?"
She is like a canary kept in a gorgeous cage, no one cares about what she really wants.
Since a pair of young children are in love with each other, they should make a marriage arrangement early to avoid long days and many dreams.
This trivial matter is not worth mentioning. Zhao Yuanming nodded. Then he brought the topic back: "There are still twenty days before your haircut ceremony."
Zhao Xiyan felt soft and warm in her heart, and smiled at him: "Then I'll go back first."
…
Xu Jing wanted to send her back, but she stopped him: "Don't send me away. The prince is seriously ill and Ma Sansi is watching him. You should stay by the prince's side worriedly at this time. Don't go to see me all the time, so as not to arouse Ma Sansi's suspicion."
.”
"When the time comes, do you want to invite the princess to be the guest of honor?"
This little bully has never tasted the taste of compromise since he was a child.
"Brother Chunsheng, please bear with me just a little longer."
In this world, there are always some arrogant and narrow-minded men who regard women as appendages and are unwilling to admit their excellence. In his previous life, Murong Shen, although he loved and doted on her, he never looked at her as an equal.
She is good.
This is another benefit of Xu Jing.
"With a three-pronged approach, Ma Sansi will be able to return to Beijing soon if he can stay in the palace."
Zhao Xiyan felt a little distressed and comforted her softly: "The Murong family is very powerful, and Ma Sansi is a popular person around the prince. In the end, they are all relying on the prince's influence. You are not afraid of them, but you are tolerant for the sake of the overall situation.
The imperial power is so high that, let alone the prince of a vassal, you must bow your head even if you are a high-ranking official in the six ministries of the court or a distinguished military general with a large number of troops."
Who can resist such boasting!
As time goes by, they will have plenty of time to spend together in the future, so there is no need to rush now.
"Also, the national mourning has passed, and the emperor should have been buried in the imperial mausoleum. Next, the most important event in the court is the new emperor's enthronement."
Mentioning Wang Wei, Zhao Yuanming also felt a little sad: "In a girl's family, her father surrendered to the bandits, and her mother and brother were killed. There are still two young children to take care of, which is really pitiful."
Half an hour later, Zhao Xiyan walked into the house with light steps.
On the day of Xu Jing's birthday, Princess Beihai spoke harshly, but Zhao Xiyan always remembered it in her heart. She was not willing to bow her head to Princess Beihai.
Zhao Yuanming thought for a moment and realized what was going on. He laughed and said, "You are still so petty and vengeful. That is Xu Jing's biological mother. If you marry Xu Jing as your daughter-in-law in the future, how can you leave your mother-in-law alone?"
Xu Jing is the only son of Princess Beihai, so he can’t let go of him even if he wants to!
Zhao Xiyan rarely showed her willful side: "That is a matter for the future, we will talk about it later. Xu Jing and I are not engaged yet, so I am not willing to bow to her."
This is relying on Xu Jing's affection to straighten his back and feel confident!
Zhao Yuanming smiled again: "That's fine. If you really don't want to, I'll let you do it."
Anyway, any disagreement between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law from now on will be Xu Jing’s business, so just let Xu Jing have a headache! As the father-in-law, he has nothing to do with it!
