Xie Jun and Sheng Hong, the future husband-in-law, had a very happy conversation with each other, and they felt like they felt like old friends at first sight.
Xie Yuanting's heart was not much bigger than the tip of a needle. He was jealous and resentful, and he felt sulky.
Xie Yunxi glanced at the handsome Seventh Prince from time to time, gritting his teeth and secretly hating him.
How unfair!
Why did Xie Mingxi have such luck and become a quasi-prince's concubine so easily? Oh my God, it's so unfair! She is obviously the legitimate daughter of the Xie family, but she is so overwhelmed by the concubine Xie Mingxi that she can't lift her head and breathe.
Nowadays, when everyone mentions the Xie family, the first person to mention must be Xie Mingxi.
How can anyone remember her, Miss Xie Er?
Princess Yongning and Chief Gu Shanzhang Hu were on the same page. Although they were depressed at this time, they did not want to miss the opportunity to get close to the Seventh Prince. They smiled and said: "We wanted to come to visit His Highness before. We were only afraid of disturbing His Highness's purity and not conducive to his recovery. We came here specially.
Wait until His Highness's injury has improved before coming."
Xie Mingxi rarely mentioned her family in front of Sheng Hong, and she mentioned Princess Yongning only a handful of times. However, from just a few words, we can get a glimpse of the relationship between this "mother and daughter".
Dealing with Xie Jun is to show the sincerity of his son-in-law. There is no need to be so polite to Princess Yongning.
Sheng Hong glanced at her and said calmly: "The princess is interested."
One is the father-in-law, and the other is the princess. Just from the title, it is enough to tell the distance between them.
Princess Yongning grew up in the palace, and had no shortage of means in the city. She usually had a cold face, but when she came in front of Sheng Hong, she automatically switched to a gentle and easy-going mother-in-law: "Your Highness and Ming Niang are engaged.
In two years, Ming Niang will be able to get married. By then, we will be a family."
Mr. Gu Shanchang almost vomited out his last night's meal.
Xie Jun's eyes were also a little subtle.
They have been married for many years. Princess Yongning has been proud and self-possessed. Apart from pretending to be in front of outsiders, she is always cold-tempered in private and has never had a good reputation. Today, she has no airs on Sheng Hong, with that gentle and smiling look... In short
, Xie Jun is really not used to it.
…
Before Sheng Hong could say anything, Xie Mingxi responded calmly: "Your Highness is the prince of Da Qi, and my mother means a family. Where do you put the emperor and the empress?"
"If you don't know how to advance or retreat, it's better not to say anything, so as not to bring trouble to the Xie family!"
That’s not the truth!
Sheng Hong's misbehavior as a prince was to bring dignity and glory to the Xie family. Princess Yongning's behavior of beating snakes and following the stick can be called shameless. Even worse than Xie Jun!
Princess Yongning did not expect that Xie Mingxi would embarrass her in person, and a look of anger flashed in her eyes. However, she did not show up. Not only did she endure it, but she also smiled in an indulgent tone: "Ming Niang is right, it's because I'm not thinking.
Zhou, just don’t say anything from now on."
Xie Mingxi's brows did not move, and her expression remained unchanged: "There is a difference between superiority and inferiority. My mother was born in the Huainan Prince's Palace and grew up in the palace. She knows the rules of the Tian family very well. Why is she so careless?"
"My mother deliberately acted like this, what is her plan?"
Princess Yongning: "..."
Princess Yongning endured it again and again, but in the end she couldn't hold it back any longer. Her face looked quite ugly: "Ming Niang, I am your aunt! It is unfilial for you to talk to me like this!"
"You have been studying at Lianchi Academy for three years and have learned a lot. Haven't you learned the word filial piety?"
Then, he glanced at Gu Shanchang with a sarcastic look: "Since Gu Shanchang is Ming Niang's master, could it be that he has never taught her what filial piety is? By the way, Gu Shanchang himself betrayed his family and disowned his parents.
A filial person will naturally not teach Ming Niang to be filial to her parents!"
Mr. Gu Shanzhang has been away from the Gu family for many years and has never stepped foot on the threshold of the Gu family. When he met his biological father, he did not say a word. His heart was already as solid as a rock. How could he be knocked down by just a few words?
Gu Shanchang first used his eyes to appease Xie Mingxi, who was really angry with the angry look on his face, and then said calmly: "The princess is wrong to say that."
"As a master, I will never neglect the teaching of filial piety."
"I taught Mingxi that if your parents treat you like jewels and treasures and think about you wholeheartedly, you should treat them wholeheartedly. If they have no true feelings for you and only use oppression, you cannot blindly obey and tolerate them. Otherwise, you will
It’s foolishness and filial piety.”
"I, Gu Xianzhi, have no shame in admiring her. My disciples are just like me. If others treat her with kindness, she will return it ten times. If others feel ashamed of her, she will return it a hundred times!"
…
This verbal battle ended with the complete defeat of Princess Yongning.
Princess Yongning stood up and left with an ugly expression.
Xie Yuanting and Xie Yunxi looked at each other and stood up.
Xie Mingxi reminded lightly: "Brother, second sister, don't forget to resign to His Highness."
Xie Yuanting and Xie Yunxi: "..."
The brother and sister responded reluctantly and bowed together to leave.
Sheng Hong quickly glanced at Xie Mingxi, who looked indifferent, and waited for a moment before saying: "Thank you, Mr. Xie, Miss Xie for free."
Princess Yongning, mother and son, all left, leaving only Xie Jun.
Xie Jun deserved to have had a soft life for many years, and he had developed a thick skin that was unparalleled. He first sighed apologetically: "The princess has always had this temper. Yuan Ting and Yun Niang grew up by the princess's side since they were young, and they were also influenced by her.
I have a bad temper. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
Sheng Hong's acting skills are even more superb. He smiled gently and said: "My father-in-law is serious. In my eyes, my father-in-law loves Mingxi and has a fatherly heart. He is absolutely different from the princess."
The meaning of the words is clear, you look to Mingxi, and I respect you as my father-in-law.
If you are facing Princess Yongning, then you are sorry!
Xie Jun has been in the officialdom for many years. Although he has no extraordinary talents as an official, he is very good at listening to what is said and trying to figure out what his superiors want. He immediately responded: "Mingxi is my biological daughter. Although she is a concubine, I have always treated her like a child."
Treasure. Even if she gets married in the future, she will still be my treasure."
Gu Shan was so numb that he had goosebumps all over his body.
Xie Mingxi and Sheng Hong have great skills. One looked pleased, the other was moved: "Father treats his daughter so well."
Xie Jun looked at Xie Mingxi with loving eyes: "Ming Niang, you don't have to worry. As long as I am here, no one in the Xie family will dare to insult you."
…
That night, Xie Jun was warmly invited by Sheng Hong to have dinner together. After that, he stayed in the palace for another two days before returning to the capital.
Compared to Princess Yongning who was in a gloomy mood, Xie Jun's face was full of joy.
Sheng Hong lamented to Xie Mingxi in private: "Mingxi, your biological father is really a bit of a scumbag! First, he let down your biological mother and asked her to give up her position as a wife and become a concubine. After marrying Princess Yongning, she is still not satisfied. Now,
There are also two beautiful concubines who have given birth to a concubine and a concubine."
Undoubtedly a scumbag!
Xie Mingxi laughed and retorted: "No, no, it's far worse than your father!"
