Emperor Jian'an spoke out all the words he had suppressed in his heart, as if he had seen with his own eyes the scene of everyone kneeling at his feet, and laughed happily.
Xiao Yuhan couldn't smile at all, his face was as white as a sheet of paper, without any blood.
My lips trembled several times and I couldn't say even a single word.
Emperor Jian'an smiled and stroked Xiao Yuhan's hair: "What? Are you scared by me?"
"Don't be afraid. I know what I'm doing and I won't rush into action. From the day my mother-in-law died, I swore to avenge this blood feud. Before I was still young, I would endure anything."
"Yu Han, I know that you have been wronged a lot. For my sake, you have to endure it a little longer. One day, I will let you move into the Jiaofang Palace in glory, take charge of the Phoenix Seal, and become the Lord of the Sixth Palace.
"
After saying that, he hugged Xiao Yuhan into his arms.
Emperor Jian'an's embrace was warm and strong.
Xiao Yuhan felt like she was in an ice cellar. The chill spread from the bottom of her heart to her whole body, without even a trace of warmth. The most intimate pleasure between a man and a woman could not make her feel any warmth.
It turns out that imperial power is so terrifying! It can make a person become unrecognizable.
After a long time, the satisfied Emperor Jian'an fell into a deep sleep.
Xiao Yuhan lay on the bed and stayed awake all night.
…
On the morning of the next day, all the vassal princesses entered the palace to pay their respects as usual.
Xie Mingxi has a rosy complexion and bright eyes, and her plain clothes cannot hide the brightness that radiates from the inside out.
Yin Xiaoxiao also looked good. When they met, she first winked at Xie Mingxi.
Xie Mingxi showed a knowing smile.
People who win a fight are always in a happier mood.
Zhao Changqing was a little sleepy, so he quietly covered his mouth and yawned. When he saw Yin Xiaoxiao, he couldn't help complaining in a low voice: "After returning home last night, King Lu went to the practice room without saying a word and practiced swordsmanship in the middle of the night. I stayed with him all the time.
I only slept for two hours."
King Lu thought it was too embarrassing for him to lose at the hands of his sister-in-law.
Yin Xiaoxiao looked innocent: "I didn't know Brother Er Wang had such a strong self-esteem. If I had known this, I would have given in to him."
Zhao Changqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's okay for you to say this in front of me, but don't spread it to His Highness's ears. Otherwise, I don't know how long he will be stunned."
While they were chatting and laughing in a low voice, Li Xiangru came over.
Li Xiangru's complexion was dark and gloomy, which was expected by everyone. He also had some difficulty walking, which was quite surprising.
Yin Xiaoxiao spoke bluntly and asked: "What's wrong with you? It's not like Prince Ning was unhappy because he lost, so he took it out on you!"
Li Xiangru was hit by an arrow in the chest, and a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out of his mouth. He denied it flatly: "The fifth brother and sister were joking. Your Highness is so broad-minded, how can you be so brooding and angry at others over such a trivial matter?"
Xie Mingxi glanced over with a smile but not a smile: "So, the fourth sister-in-law's difficulty in walking is also because she accidentally fell. It has nothing to do with Prince Ning?"
Li Xiangru: "..."
Li Xiangru, who was deprived of his words, felt a blush of embarrassment on his cheeks and glared at Xie Mingxi: "That's exactly it!"
Xie Mingxi smiled knowingly: "What the fourth sister-in-law says is whatever she says, we won't talk too much or ask too many questions."
Li Xiangru was so angry that she secretly vomited blood.
At this moment, Xiao Yuhan also arrived.
Xie Mingxi's gaze fell on Xiao Yuhan's dark and gloomy face: "Why does the third sister-in-law look so ugly today?" Everyone also looked over.
Xiao Yuhan didn't look at anyone and said vaguely: "I didn't sleep well last night." Then he walked into Jiaofang Hall first.
Xie Mingxi's eyes flashed slightly, and she thought for a while before stepping into the Jiaofang Hall together.
…
Empress Dowager Yu obviously knew about what happened in the Prince of Shu's palace last night and said calmly: "Everyone has grown up, but they still have the temper of children. Brothers actually started fighting among themselves. If word spreads about it, how will it be done?"
Xie Mingxi was the first to stand up: "What the Queen Mother said is that the King of Shu felt quite ashamed. After he retired from the court, he came to apologize to the Queen Mother."
Yin Xiaoxiao couldn't sit still anymore and stood up to admit her mistake: "My daughter-in-law should not have fought with my uncle. Please punish my mother!"
Others only looked and moved their mouths, but Yin Xiaoxiao moved her hands.
Empress Dowager Yu's eyes showed displeasure: "It's good if you realize your mistake. As a princess, how can you act so wantonly. From tomorrow on, don't enter the palace, so you can reflect in the house. When will the Ai family speak out, you will come in again
Come to the palace."
Yin Xiaoxiao lowered his head and accepted the order.
Empress Dowager Yu looked at Zhao Changqing again: "King Lu has practiced martial arts for many years, and even the Yin family is not defeated. When word spreads out, the Ai family will blush for him."
The ashamed Zhao Changqing stood up and confessed to her husband.
Finally, it was Li Xiangru's turn. Empress Dowager Yu said nothing and only glanced at Li Xiangru. This one glance was enough for Li Xiangru.
A wife is valued by her husband, and a wife is honored by her husband.
If the husband loses face, won’t the wife also lose face too?
Li Xiangru's face turned red and he was ashamed, so he stood up and confessed.
Empress Dowager Yu looked calm: "That's all, I won't say much more about the Ai family. Being in the Heavenly Family is your honor and dignity for the rest of your life. You must not do anything that harms the face of the Heavenly Family. You should take care of yourself."
Everyone responded in unison.
Queen Mother Yu's expression softened slightly: "Don't even stand, just sit down and talk."
After the words fell, Xie Mingxi and others took their seats one by one.
The majesty of Queen Mother Yu is evident.
"The King of Shu and his wife will leave Beijing tomorrow. As brothers and sisters, you are going to see them off." Empress Dowager Yu said slowly: "Blood is thicker than water. No matter how far apart we are, we are still blood relatives. You may wish to exchange more letters in the future."
…
Queen Mother Yu obviously had no intention of pulling Xie Mingxi to say farewell with a sincere and sincere message.
Xie Mingxi had nothing to lose. After leaving Jiaofang Palace, she went to Hanxiang Palace and said goodbye to Princess Mei. Without Sheng Hong by her side, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had nothing to say.
Xie Mingxi sat for a moment and then said: "My mother and concubine must take care of themselves. In the future, His Highness will definitely find a way to take my mother and concubine out of the palace."
Concubine Mei said, "When you go to the feudal land, you should persuade Hong'er more and let him live a peaceful life. Don't always worry about me."
Xie Mingxi's eyes flashed across Mei Taifei's pale and sick face, and she said calmly: "Someone wants to keep the mother-in-law in the palace, and the mother-in-law has to stay. However, the mother-in-law must not be obsessed with life and death, and don't think that she will die in one death.
Your Highness will no longer be controlled by others."
"When Your Highness went to Shu, he was always thinking about his mother and concubine. If there was something wrong with his mother and concubine in the palace, it is unknown what His Highness would do in anger and sadness."
"Only when people are alive can they have hope. Otherwise, there will be nothing."
Mrs. Mei: "..."
Concubine Mei was choked to the point of being almost speechless. After a while, she finally managed to say: "I have no intention of seeking death."
After Xie Mingxi said this, how dare Concubine Mei even think about seeking death. If the King of Shu rebelled because of this, she would not be able to sleep even if she went underground!
Xie Mingxi did not reveal the insincerity of Concubine Mei's words, and smiled slightly: "I believe in the concubine."
