Xie Mingxi raised the corners of her mouth, smiled and nodded: "Master, don't worry, I act appropriately."
At most, it would scare Mrs. Mei.
However, it is hard to say whether Mrs. Mei could bear being frightened.
Back then, the sixth princess was murdered and drowned. As her own mother, she did not think about how to avenge her daughter. Instead, she asked her son to dress up as a woman and take her daughter's identity to grow up in the palace.
From this point, we can see how weak Mrs. Mei's temperament is.
How effective this time will be, we will know in a while.
…
It was late at night, and Sheng Hong returned to Jiaofang Hall with a tired face.
Xie Mingxi stood up to greet you: "I expected you would come back tonight and have been waiting for you."
Sheng Hong was busy with political affairs and war, and he did not forget the grievances between his wife and his mother-in-law. Xie Mingxi had already sent a message to the Qing Palace after Concubine Mei was knocked unconscious.
The couple sat down hand in hand and whispered.
Xie Mingxi first asked about the war: "You sent Zhou Yong to lead the troops to Jin. Is there any objection from the generals in the court?"
At the beginning of this year, General Yin and Zhou Yong led their troops back to the capital together. In the battle to quell the feudal vassal, Zhou Yong was defeated first and then won, which can be considered as a balance between merit and demerit. Sheng Hong rewarded General Yin heavily and ordered Zhou Yong to continue to be the commander of the Divine Guard Army.
After experiencing the war experience, Zhou Yong became much calmer and gained quite a prestige among the Divine Guards. He also had the demeanor of a famous general.
The soldiers of the Divine Guard suffered heavy casualties, and Zhou Yong spent half a year recruiting and training soldiers. Today, the Divine Guard has as many as 50,000 soldiers.
During this time of civil unrest, Sheng Hong appointed Zhou Yong as the chief general and led 30,000 divine guardsmen to Jin.
"Occasionally someone would say something, but I would refute it."
A few years after he ascended the throne, Sheng Hong firmly sat on the throne, and his power as the emperor became stronger and stronger. At this time, he raised his eyebrows lazily, showing a lazy charm: "If I can't even do this, how can I be the emperor?"
Xie Mingxi smiled teasingly: "Yes, yes, the emperor is so powerful that no one dares to look directly at him."
Sheng Hong grinned.
The couple chatted and laughed, then turned to talk about today's incident in Hanxiang Palace. Xie Mingxi did not hide anything, and recounted the confrontation between the two.
Sheng Hong worked from morning till late at night and was quite tired. Hearing this, he sighed: "My mother-in-law really doesn't make people worry."
Ansheng's life was so good, but he was making a fuss about asking him to take a concubine and have children...
"After today, I guess it's time for the concubine to calm down." Xie Mingxi said calmly: "I broke out today, yelled at her and threatened her. I'm afraid she was so frightened by me that she would be sick for a while.
"
Sheng Hong: "..."
Sheng Hong didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only smile bitterly.
On one side is the mother-in-law, on the other side is the daughter-in-law. The feeling of being caught in the middle is really difficult for someone who is not a native to understand.
In the past two years, Xie Mingxi has tolerated Concubine Mei for his sake. Now Concubine Mei has taken the initiative to extend her hand. If Xie Mingxi does not fight back, this hand will reach Jiaofang Palace completely.
Xie Mingxi could no longer endure it, and Sheng Hong also supported what she did.
However, as a son, hearing that his own mother was so frightened that she lost her mind makes her feel complicated and difficult to describe.
Xie Mingxi glanced at Sheng Hong: "Just be patient for a few days before going to Hanxiang Palace. Otherwise, all your efforts will be wasted."
If you want to truly shock Mrs. Mei, Sheng Hong's attitude is crucial.
Sheng Hong took a deep breath and nodded: "Don't worry, I know the severity."
First make peace with the inside, then fight with the outside.
