"Master, something is wrong! Something big happened! Miss, something is wrong!" Xia Zhan had just finished handling Xia Qingxin's affairs and breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the housekeeper shouting.
"Master, I'm fine! Miss will be better in the future, why are you arguing?" He just forced Nalan to go home and prepare to come to the Marquis Mansion to propose marriage. As soon as he came, the matter was completed, and the relationship between father and daughter will definitely be better.
One step, I look forward to it endlessly just thinking about it.
"No, it's the second lady who is in trouble." The housekeeper wished he could slap himself a few times to see what he was saying.
"What's wrong with the second lady?" Xia Zhan looked impatient. This Qingcheng was about to get married, so why was he still making such a fuss? Why didn't any of his two daughters make him worry?
"There are rumors that the second lady was..." The housekeeper finished wiping his sweat and said tremblingly.
You want to be an enemy of my Marquis Mansion!" At this time, one of the principals who was an enemy of his Marquis Mansion was leisurely eating fruit on a recliner in Lanyuan, while the other was angrily throwing things in Meiyuan.
"Master, I have something to report." An Yi suddenly landed in the center of the study like a gust of wind.
"Get up and answer the question, but what happened to the eldest lady?"
"This..." Nothing happened to the eldest lady. She is fine. The expression on An Yi's face was a little unclear at this time. Should he say it? The eldest lady did the commotion outside. But
Don't tell me, the master will have to find out sooner or later.
"Tell me, what does hesitating look like? What happened to Qingxin?"
"Back to the master, the eldest lady did what happened to the second lady, and the entire Lanyuan was involved in it. However, according to my subordinates' speculation, the reason why the eldest lady treated the second lady like this is because the second lady framed the eldest lady in this way before.
"If you die, you will die. You can't hide it from your master, otherwise it will be disloyal.
Xia Zhan heard that everyone was trapped, what? Because Qingcheng harmed Qingxin, so now Qingxin used the same method to return it? It was not that someone harmed his Hou family, but it was caused by internal fighting. How big is this?
A joke. He originally thought that the two daughters would just fight and fight because of the prince, and the matter would be over soon. Unexpectedly, they actually reached the point where they were incompatible with each other.
"What did you say? Are you sure it was Qingcheng who treated Qingzin like this first?" Mr. Xiahou couldn't believe that her two daughters were so 'capable'.
"According to my subordinates' observations in Lanyuan for so many days, it was indeed the second young lady who first caused trouble for the eldest lady. At first, the eldest lady blindly gave in at every turn. Later, she was really annoyed by the matter of Young Master Nalan, so she
A person's way will cure his body." But this strategy is more poisonous than the second lady's, An Yi added in his heart.
Xia Zhan was confused after hearing this. He must not be able to hide this matter from the emperor. What should he do in the morning? "Butler, butler, come in and make arrangements to curb the rumors as soon as possible. I will go into the palace now to plead guilty to the emperor." For this plan.
He can only take a preemptive strike and must protect his daughter.
In the imperial study room, Xia Zhan was kneeling on the ground. The emperor did not let him get up so he could only keep kneeling. Half an hour had passed and the emperor had been reviewing the memorial without even giving him a look. The whole hall was silent.
I don't know what the person above was thinking. Xia Zhan didn't dare to speak. After another moment of burning incense, the emperor who approved the memorial finally raised his head and asked, "Why is Aiqing here today?"
"Back to the Emperor, I'm here to apologize to you." The Emperor is still so calm despite his age. He is really ashamed of himself.
"Oh? What did you do to me, my beloved? Come and listen to me and stand up and talk." Xia Zhan stood up and looked at the emperor. He was still reviewing the memorial, as if what he just said was not his.
"Back to the Emperor, it was the old minister's poor discipline that led to the catastrophe. The old minister has already severely punished these two people who failed to live up to their expectations. I would also like to ask the emperor to spare the old minister's two daughters because he has devoted his whole life to you.
"It's not that he is relying on his old age to show off his old age. This matter is related to the reputation of the royal family. If the emperor loses his face, isn't he seeking death?
"My dear, you have been a soldier all your life and you can't even control your own backyard. How do you think I should punish you?" Today's Saint Bai Liting looked at Xia Zhan with a half-smile but not a smile. This general who has followed him in battles all his life is also powerless.
time, it was really interesting.
"I am willing to bring my two sons and a daughter back to their fields and return to their hometown." Bai Liting laughed loudly after hearing this. It seems that he is serious this time, "My dear, you don't have to be like this. My body and bones are about to die. A hundred years from now."
I still have to rely on my beloved to protect my unfulfilled son." The long-term fatigue has made the emperor, who is only in his forties, look extremely old. The conquering of the world when he was young left the root of the disease, and he will be completely exhausted in less than three years.
Can't stand it any longer.
Xia Zhan immediately knelt down after hearing the old emperor's words: "Your Majesty, you will definitely live a long life." "Don't say any more flattery to Aiqing. However, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided. Xia Qingcheng, the second lady of Xiahou Mansion, has good virtues.
Unfortunately, I deserve the position of Crown Princess. From now on, the second daughter of the Xia family, Xia Qingcheng, will be removed from the position of Crown Princess and will get married on another day."
"I accept the edict and bow to the Lord for His kindness." Fortunately, I only took the position of Crown Princess, but why didn't I say a single word of love? I wonder if this is a good thing.
As soon as Mr. Xiahou left, Prince Baili Mingyu entered the imperial study, "My son, I will see you, father."
"Get settled." The old emperor felt like a clear mirror in his heart. He knew that the prince came here because of Xia Qingcheng's affairs. He would be relieved when his son could put his focus on women on government affairs.
"Father, you know that the rumors about Qingcheng are all false, why do you still want to strip her of the title of Crown Princess?" The old emperor heard that the son he had worked so hard to cultivate actually questioned himself for a woman, and he immediately took it in his hand.
The memorial fell on his face, this unfilial son!
"You have the nerve to ask me! You are a majestic prince, what kind of woman do you want? You actually care about a woman who actively favors you. Where do you want to put the royal family's face?" Baili Mingyu wanted to refute, but looked at the emperor's expression.
His expression was speechless.
"Mingyu, what else can this Xia Qingcheng do besides using shady methods? As far as I know, she is far from the eldest lady of the Xia family. If you have time to spare, why not pay more attention to Xia Qingxin."
What's so good about that woman Xia Qingxin? My father actually said this. Could it be that that woman did something else that I didn't know about?
Some people have been favored by God without doing anything since they were born, and they cannot escape or hide. However, this kind of fate is not something ordinary people can bear. There are gains and losses. (To be continued)
