My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Chapter 879: 879-Superstition



Chapter 879:-Superstition

Emperor Yongping summoned Princess Xuancheng into the palace.

When he saw the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng again, where was the hostility from two days ago, when she glared at him and called him a fatuous ruler, when she didn’t recognize her own family, and when she hit him with her head?

His mouth was full of benevolence, righteousness, morality, and loyalty.

Emperor Yong Ping was shocked. He really wanted to tear off her mask and see who was pretending to be his sister.

If he was so righteous, it couldn’t be Xuan City.

“What’s wrong with you? Are you too frightened and perverted?” Emperor Yong Ping asked worriedly.

At first, the eldest princess of Xuancheng was still stuttering about loyalty to the emperor and love for the country. Later, Emperor Yong Ping understood and asked her about it. This girl had gone straight to the Xie residence from the palace. That meant that the Xie family had given her some accurate good news.

Therefore, she was in the mood to pretend to be a snake.

“Did Xie Qing tell you some good news?”Emperor Yong Ping sized up Princess Xuan Cheng from head to toe.

The Eldest Princess of Xuan City’s face was filled with ‘conflict’.

She looked at her Imperial Brother and knew that she couldn’t hide it from him.”Royal brother, don’t tell anyone…”

Emperor Yong Ping was speechless. Wasn’t this meant to guard against him?

After hearing what the eldest princess of Xuancheng said, Emperor Yong Ping was relieved. First of all, he was sure that the Xiao family had no selfish motives for Xuancheng.

Moreover, if she told the Eldest Princess Princess, how could she not tell him?

He believed that even if others were skeptical, Xie Xian was someone who could see through people to their bones. Moreover, his sister wasn’t someone who had deep thoughts. She couldn’t see through others, but when she looked at Xuancheng, she would come one by one.

She pinched him with her hand.

At the very least, he believed in Xie Xian’s motives.

Xiao Baoxin was like Xie Xian’s eyeballs. He was worried that her biological younger brother would send the Xie family’s men of sacrifice over. That was very normal.

It was true that Xiao Baoshu was injured. It was written in the secret edict Sikong Xiao wrote to the Emperor. His injuries were not light. He had indeed fallen off his horse. However, the reason was that he was ambushed by Northern Wu and fell into their trap.

His leg was broken and Sikong Xiao had sent him back to Yongzhou to recuperate.

Emperor Yong Ping didn’t dare to say this to the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng. If Sikong Xiao could send him off the battlefield, he must be seriously injured. What if… It was too heavy, how could the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng accept it?

She would not believe him even if he told her that he was fine.

The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng had a criminal record. She had secretly followed Xiao Baoshu out of the city and headed straight for Jiangzhou for half a year.

That was to pick up people from Jiang Prefecture. Xiao Baoshu was on the battlefield now. Even the situation in Yongzhou could not be underestimated. The road was very dangerous. If Xuan Cheng ran to Yongzhou on impulse and something happened on the road, how would he explain to his dead parents?

Emperor Yong Ping didn’t ask in detail. Looking at the Eldest Princess of Xuan City, he knew that whatever Xie Xian said to her would be good words.

However, was Xiao Baoshu’s situation really that good, or was Xie Xian just lying to her?

After sending off the eldest princess of Xuancheng, Emperor Yong Ping left the palace in the evening and rushed to the Xie residence.

This time, Emperor Yong Ping did not hide anything and directly asked Xie Xian.

Xie Xian knew that this would happen and had been waiting for Emperor Yong Ping.

He didn’t know the contents of the imperial edict, but the information given to the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was fake. How could the Xie family’s men of sacrifice be so resourceful?

Emperor Yong Ping’s doubts were resolved and he felt much more comfortable. As expected, he was lying to his sister.

However, there was nothing she could do. Her sister had been deceived.

“Actually…Boshu was indeed injured and was sent to Yongzhou by Sikong Xiao to recuperate. He should be fine.”Emperor Yong Ping sighed.” It’s just that I can’t say this to Xuancheng. I’m afraid she can’t even take it.””

Therefore, he was reluctant to let Sikong Xiao bring Xiao Baoshu to the battlefield.

However, Xiao Baoshu could not stop himself from asking to fight on the battlefield.

He had the intention to kill the enemy, and the situation was so tense. Emperor Yong Ping prioritized the overall situation, and Xiao Baoshu was a general talent, so he naturally did not hesitate to use him. Moreover, he trusted Xiao Baoshu.

Sikong Xiao would grow old one day, and a new generation would replace the old. His brother-in-law was young and strong, and he was also a rare honest person. He could not hide his thoughts like Xuancheng. If he did not use him, who else could he use?

“Who do you think is spreading rumors in Jiankang?”Emperor Yongping asked Xie Xian when he left.

Xie Xian was stunned for a moment.” It’s hard to say. It’s very likely that he’s seen the military report, or the person who passed the military report, or someone with a stake…” It was also possible that the imperial court had been bribed by Northern Wu. This was still waiting for His Majesty to send someone to investigate.”

Naturally, it was hard to say. It was all kinds of people.

It could also be Emperor Yong Ping himself or Prince Jiang Xia himself.

It was hard to say.

Emperor Yong Ping might have been directing public opinion in order to settle the accounts of King Jiang Xia in the future. Naturally, it was also possible that King Jiang Xia had suppressed it first and then raised it in order to prevent him from being settled. When he returned to the court after victory, he would give everyone, especially Emperor Yong Ping, a resounding slap in the face with Sikong Xiao.

Emperor Yong Ping only nodded and did not say anything.

Xie Xian watched Emperor Yong Ping leave the Xie Manor. The sky was already dark. It was only when the mighty team of thirty to forty people had all disappeared into the corner of the street that Xie Xian retracted his gaze.

At this moment, a small ox cart that was dodging the emperor’s carriage slowly approached.

As he passed by the Xie Manor, the curtain of the carriage was lifted. It was Yang Fengming, who had a few strands of goatee. The carriage was filled with incense and the smell of alcohol.

Yang Fengming looked at Xie Xian with a complicated expression.”Brother Xie is highly regarded by the Emperor.”

The so-called ‘Brother Xie’ was just a respectful title for the other party in the officialdom. That Yang Fengming was more than five or six years older than Xie Xian.

Xie Xian: “I am only loyal to the country and serve my emperor.”He cupped his hands slightly and turned around to enter the Xie Manor without a word.

Yang Fengming gently lowered the curtain.

Xie Xian did not touch him even with so many ginsengs, and even the Emperor’s favor did not weaken at all. He was a troublesome person.

He also thought that he was favored by the Emperor. From entering the capital as the assistant minister of the Yellow Gate to the current Minister of Justice, it was not an exaggeration to say that he had risen to the top. But compared to this Xie Xian, he really couldn’t compare. If something really happened, it could be seen that the Emperor really trusted Xie Xian.

Ever since the incident in Jingzhou, the Emperor had been more diligent in visiting the Xie Manor than the harem!

Cursing the Prince of Huaiyang for picking on the soft persimmon, he might as well directly kill Xie Xian.

If he was going to die, at least he would drag Xie Xian down with him and benefit the people, right?!

Yang Fengming only returned to the manor after he had completely sobered up.

Xie Xian was an opponent that could not be underestimated. Even though everyone would laugh at him on a normal day, Xie Xian had only gained merit by following the dragon, which was why the Emperor could not forget him and trusted him.

However, it could not be denied that he was indeed a talent.

It was not embarrassing to admit that others were strong, but it was embarrassing to not know one’s own limits. Not only would he lose face, but he might even lose his life.

Jiang Xia Prince, it was probably better to temporarily stop the matter that his brother-in-law had entrusted to him.

Yang Fengming was superstitious. He firmly believed that meeting Emperor Yong Ping and Xie Xian today was not in vain. This was a warning from the heavens.

When it’s time to stop, stop!
