Half of the brain is noodles and half is water. If it moves even slightly, it turns into paste.
Xie Mingxi was provocative and rebellious, but her difficult father-in-law was not angry, but full of praise.
What the hell is going on?
The prince of Huainan was not even as good as Xie Jun. His mind was filled with confusion and anger: "Father, this Xie Mingxi has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. With a sharp tongue, he will definitely cause trouble for his sister. Let's kill her."
Throw it into the pond!"
King Huainan couldn't bear it anymore and glared at the Crown Prince: "Shut up!"
If you kill people frequently, can you use your brain?
If killing someone could solve the problem, he would have ordered the action long ago. Why wait until now?
The first place among the freshmen of Lianchi Academy!
The weight is self-evident.
In the past ten years or so, every year, the top student in Lianchi Academy either married into the royal family and became a daughter-in-law, or married into a noble or a top civil servant. It is not an exaggeration to describe her as having a bright future.
Empress Yu was very protective of her disciples. Today Xie Mingxi died in the Huainan Palace. Tomorrow he, the Huainan Prince, will be held accountable by Empress Yu, thereby angering the emperor.
Pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, Yongning's story of forcing Xie Mingxi to take the exam as his legitimate mother will also be spread throughout the capital.
Killing Xie Mingxi at this time will not bring any benefits at all, but will cause a lot of trouble. How can you do such a loss-making thing? You can't even understand this, what a fool!
The Prince of Huainan was afraid of his father like a tiger. When King Huainan glared at him, he immediately became intimidated and kept his mouth shut.
Xie Jun didn't understand what was going on for a while. However, it was obvious that King Huainan had no intention of killing anyone.
Xie Jun endured the pain all over his body, struggled to get up, and cupped his hands to the King of Huainan: "My father-in-law has a broad mind, which is admirable. My son-in-law, thank you father-in-law! After I go back, my son-in-law will definitely discipline Ming Niang and never let her get into trouble again!"
King Huainan glanced at her and said calmly: "You gave birth to a good daughter."
...Is it a sincere compliment, or is it a double-edged sarcasm?
Xie Jun kept thinking in his mind and responded solemnly: "That's what my father-in-law said."
…
The King of Huainan looked at his son-in-law who looked useless, and felt a little blocked in his heart.
At that time, Xie Jun was chosen partly because Princess Yongning begged her, and partly because Xie Jun was both talented and beautiful. As a powerful prince, there was no need to worry about family status when marrying a daughter. To recruit a county horse from a poor family, one also had to show sincerity to the emperor.
To show weakness.
Unexpectedly, Xie Jun turned out to be a weakling who looked down on his use.
For more than ten years, I have been traveling as the son-in-law of the King of Huainan, and I have reaped many benefits, but I have no ability to be an official. I am ambitious but not courageous, greedy but not decisive, indecisive, and unclear about decisions!
I really don’t know how the proud and intelligent Yong Ning could take a fancy to him!
Bad bamboo produces good bamboo shoots!
Xie Jun was useless, but the daughter he gave birth to was extremely smart. He used his strength to calculate people's hearts, and there was no ambiguity in the slightest.
The King of Huainan's eyes fell on the face of Xie Mingxi, who was extremely beautiful. His eyes flickered again and again, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xie Jun's heart was in his throat again.
Xie Mingxi remained calm and composed, with a smile on her face: "My aunt and eldest brother are still waiting at the house. My father and I will go back to the house first. We will visit my grandfather another day."
One mouthful of a grandfather, his name is more affectionate than Xie Yunxi's.
He has a thick face and a dark heart, but he is a man of great talent!
King Huainan sighed in his heart and nodded.
…
If Xie Jun was released, he immediately bowed and left as if running for his life.
Xie Mingxi followed him slowly.
After leaving the gate of Huainan Palace and getting on the carriage, Xie Jun breathed a sigh of relief. He was quite lucky to have escaped!
Once you relax, the pain on your face and forehead becomes unbearable.
Xie Jun was so proud of his face that he refused to cry out in pain and endured it silently.
Xie Mingxi said understandingly: "Why should a father be so brave in front of his daughter? It doesn't hurt to shout out if it hurts."
The carriage accidentally jolted.
Xie Jun hissed, as if a floodgate had been opened, and screamed in pain. He gritted his teeth and said, "My uncle is so cruel!"
If Xie Mingxi hadn't stepped forward, at least one of his legs would have been broken today.
Thinking of this, Xie Jun felt mixed emotions in his heart and looked at Xie Mingxi with complex eyes: "Ming Niang! Who taught you what you just said? Aren't you afraid that the King of Huainan will fall out?"
Xie Mingxi responded sternly: "Before I came here, I had already made up my mind. I would never allow them to insult my father! Even if I risk my life, I will stand up and protect my father."
Xie Jun was so moved that he almost cried on the spot: "Good Ming Niang! You are so filial, my father will definitely stand by your side in the future."
Tsk tsk!
Man!
It’s so easy to deceive!
Xie Mingxi was very amused in her heart, and her face showed gratitude at the right time: "Father, you treat your daughter so well."
After this incident, Xie Jun and Princess Yongning fell out. He will stand on her side from now on. Although his father is useless, he can always block a hail of arrows at critical moments.
It is not easy to deal with a scheming old fox like King Huainan.
She sensed King Huainan's weakness and enlisted Queen Yu as a banner. King Huainan was wary, so naturally he would not act rashly.
However, this does not mean that King Huainan really intends to let her go. If there is a "right" opportunity in the future, King Huainan will definitely take action against her.
However, there is no need to elaborate on this kind of thing, so as not to scare the fragile father.
Xie Jun grinned, pulled the wound on his face, and suddenly started wailing again.
…
As soon as Xie Jun and his daughter left, the prince of Huainan couldn't hold it in any longer and asked: "Why did my father spare them so easily? My sister was beaten, and I stood up for her, but even the emperor wouldn't ask a question. I simply interrupted.
Xie Jun's legs kept him lying on the bed for several months."
"And that Xie Mingxi! His sharp teeth and mouth are very annoying! He should be thrown into the pond!"
Without the outsiders, King Huainan stopped holding his position and cursed angrily with a dark face: "Can you use your brain? No matter how bad your brother-in-law is, he is still a fourth-rank official. How will you explain to the emperor if he is injured?"
"That girl Xie Mingxi was ranked first in the academy in the first test, which shows that she is extremely intelligent. She is neither humble nor arrogant, which shows that she is courageous. She has a sharp tongue, which shows that she is smart."
"Such an outstanding girl will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future. Even now, she has shown her talents."
"If I can't kill her, I can only put on a show and let her go for now."
"I can't understand such a simple truth! Is the thing around your neck just a decoration?"
The prince of Huainan was scolded so badly that he was unconvinced and did not dare to talk back: "Father taught you a lesson."
The King of Huainan sighed, and his voice slowed down slightly: "I haven't paid much attention to a mere girl. What I'm afraid of is that because of this matter, Queen Yu will take advantage of her and get angry."
"In the past two years, we have had frequent private contacts with the Fourth Prince, and Queen Yu has long been dissatisfied."
