Xie Yunxi's death in childbirth was not something she ordered at all. As a result, everyone believed that she was the one who secretly murdered her, and there were quite a few unpleasant rumors.
Emperor Jianwen passed away suddenly, and everyone was busy kneeling in mourning, but no one mentioned it. She gradually forgot about this incident.
Unexpectedly, Xie Mingxi mentioned this matter in front of everyone.
He literally slapped her face hard in front of everyone!
"Why didn't the Fourth Emperor's Wife stop talking?"
Xie Mingxi looked over with a smile but not a smile, with a hint of surprise in her voice: "A few days ago, I heard some unpleasant rumors. It was said that Xie Yunxi's death was related to the Fourth Emperor's sister-in-law."
"How is this possible! The Fourth Emperor's sister-in-law is beautiful, virtuous and generous. She would never do such a vicious thing as leaving a son behind and leaving his mother behind."
"No matter how many rumors there are outside, we still firmly believe in the character of the Fourth Emperor's wife."
Xiao Yuhan took up the conversation calmly: "What the seventh brother and sister said is true. The fourth brother and sister should not take these villains' gossip to heart. And do not be alienated from brother Ting because of this."
Yin Xiaoxiao also couldn't stand Li Xiangru's previous behavior of deliberately showing off, so she opened her mouth and said, "Brother Ting has pretty eyebrows. It's just that he doesn't look like the Fourth Emperor brother, but he looks like his biological mother."
Li Xiangru: "..."
Li Xiangru's face was slapped again and again until it was almost swollen.
Empress Yu was also unhappy. She knew that she was most taboo with words such as aunt and concubine, but Li Xiangru still showed off brother Ting so ignorantly! It was really annoying!
Queen Yu said calmly: "Although Brother Ting is a commoner, you have to raise him by your side now. You have to raise him well. Even if you have your own flesh and blood in the future, don't neglect Brother Ting."
Li Xiangru couldn't cry even if he wanted to, so he whispered.
When I lowered my head and saw Brother Ting's face, I felt a little depressed and awkward.
How come this child looks so much like Xie Yunxi?!
Li Xiangru felt depressed and his hands became a little heavier.
Brother Ting twisted his body and soon started to cry loudly. Li Xiangru had no choice but to stand up and apologize, and then left with Brother Ting in his arms.
…
Without the obtrusive Li Xiangru, the atmosphere in Jiaofang Hall suddenly became much calmer.
Queen Yu glanced at A Luo and said, "Mrs. Xie, bring A Luo to me. I will take a closer look."
Xie Mingxi responded and came forward with A Luo in her arms.
Ah Luo has now lost all her blush, and her skin is particularly white, tender and delicate. Her eyebrows are also slightly longer, with a pair of dark eyes like grapes. Her rosy little mouth is grinning, which is particularly cute.
Empress Yu smiled and praised: "A'luo is the president. He has inherited the advantages of Sheng Hong and you. In the future, he will be a beauty that is hard to find in the world."
Princess Changping, who was sitting next to her, also took a look: "A Luo is indeed born well."
Xie Mingxi looked at the grinning daughter in her arms with gentle eyes: "My daughter-in-law only hopes that Ah Luo will be healthy and safe, and that her life will go smoothly."
It is not a blessing for a woman to be born too beautiful.
Lianxiang was born extremely beautiful, but was as humble as dust and mud, and ended up being buried as a sacrifice.
Fortunately, A'luo was born into the royal family and will become the distinguished princess of Daqi in the future. No matter how beautiful she is, no man dares to bully her. She and Sheng Hong will definitely treat their daughter as the apple of their eye and raise them carefully.
Xiao Yuhan chuckled softly and said, "When I met A Luo, I also missed Sister Fu. Although Sister Fu is not as beautiful as A Luo, her daughter is always her best."
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused a burst of laughter.
Queen Yu and Princess Changping also laughed together.
The tension that once existed was completely gone at this moment.
Just looking at the surface, it seems that they are very harmonious.
"Hurry up and take Sister Fu out." Princess Changping said with a smile: "As an aunt, I haven't seen Sister Fu for some time."
Xiao Yuhan responded with a smile and ordered to go down. Soon, the nanny came in with Sister Fu in her arms.
Sister Fu is nearly one year old, fair and delicate, quiet and lovable.
Yin Xiaoxiao immediately ordered someone to take brother Lin out, and with the presence of the second prince's eldest son and daughter, the Jiaofang Palace was filled with excitement that had not been seen for a long time.
After Li Xiangru turned around, she realized that all the emperor's grandsons and granddaughters were in front of Empress Yu, and she immediately became petty again. If she had known this, she should have taken Brother Ting out again.
Why is it that everyone else is holding children in their hands, but hers is empty?
Although Brother Ting did not come from her belly, in her heart, he was just like her own child.
…
After dinner at Jiaofang Palace, Xie Mingxi led A Luo back to Fulin Palace.
Fulin Palace was Sheng Hong's bedroom. After Sheng Hong left the palace and opened his mansion, the palace staff in Fulin Palace were changed. I don't know how many of them were Empress Yu's eyes and ears.
Xie Mingxi's food, clothing, and daily life in the palace were all taken care of by Congyu Fuyu, and the palace maids had no chance to get close to her. In addition to the wet nurse, A Luo was also accompanied by the careful and steady Xiang Hui.
"Seventh Princess, there seems to be someone at the door of the palace." Congyu reported in a low voice.
Xie Mingxi has practiced martial arts all year round and has excellent eyesight. Before Congyu opened his mouth, he had already spotted the thin figure standing in the light and darkness.
It’s Concubine Mei!
Xie Mingxi didn't stop walking and walked forward holding A Luo.
Concubine Mei's slightly anxious and uneasy face came into view: "Seventh Prince Concubine, I want to take a look at A Luo. After just one look, I will go back to Hanxiang Palace."
Because of Xie Mingxi's intercession, Concubine Mei was lifted from the ban and was qualified to kneel for Emperor Jianwen.
Now that Emperor Jianwen was being carried to the imperial mausoleum for burial, Concubine Mei did not dare to go out and walk around at will. She continued to stay in Hanxiang Palace during the day, and only quietly slipped out when it was getting dark.
Facing her scheming daughter-in-law, Mei Fei really had no confidence and couldn't act like a mother-in-law. She seemed to be begging.
Xie Mingxi said softly: "Since my concubine is here, you might as well go into Fulin Palace and sit for a while."
Concubine Mei was surprised, happy, and a little uneasy: "I am a guilty person. I am able to leave Hanxiang Palace because the Queen is particularly gracious. If you step into Fulin Palace again, I wonder if the Queen will blame you or bring you trouble.
"
Empress Yu was so powerful that she killed Concubine Shu on the spot, which was horrifying. Concubine Xian, Li Fei and Concubine Jing had been extremely honest and low-key these days, fearing that Empress Yu would be in a bad mood and they would also be "buried" together.
…
Concubine Mei is not afraid of death, but she is afraid of harming her son and daughter-in-law.
Xie Mingxi smiled faintly: "My mother is worried too much. Since my mother allows her to leave Hanxiang Palace, I won't care about this. Even if my mother is a little unhappy, I have ways to deal with it."
Mei Fei: "..."
Yes.
My daughter-in-law is different from her weak and useless mother-in-law.
During these days, she knelt in the corner and saw with her own eyes how powerful Xie Mingxi was.
Concubine Mei nodded and silently followed Xie Mingxi into Fulin Palace.
