Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Burning the Cauldron
Translator: 549690339
Was Emperor Epsilon stupid?
He was definitely not stupid. Not only was a young lady obsessed with her future brother-in-law, but she also dressed up as a maid. She even secretly slipped away from her mother’s marriage arrangement. She knelt down and kept asking him to make the decision.
Who was he?
He was the emperor of a country, not the second uncle of the neighboring family who could casually say things without taking any responsibility.
No matter what twists and turns there were, just look at this Xingping County Head talking and talking, showing weakness everywhere, but everything he did was in an offensive stance. Whether it was snatching his future brother-in-law or taking the initiative to marry, his moves were fierce. He did not look like a good person.
Even his stepmother dared to openly disobey him. She was not the type to be wronged and oppressed, so he did not have to stick his head out.
The Xiao family’s family affairs should be resolved by the Xiao family themselves. He was still not interested in stealing the matchmaker’s business. There weren’t many good people who would end up getting engaged, so he didn’t want to waste his effort and get nothing out of it.
Emperor Yu Heng watched the commotion for a long time, but he didn’t want to become a part of the commotion for others to see. He patted his butt and left.
With a wave of his sleeve, he took away Xiao Jing ‘ai’s anger.
Without the Emperor’s support, she did not know what the Xiao Family would have to do to agree to this marriage. She knew that Xiao Yun had always been the head of the Xiao family. It was impossible for him not to side with his daughter. Her mother didn’t dote on her, and her father wasn’t a strong person. The hope was too slim.
With the Emperor gone, Xiao Jingai had lost her last hope. Xiao Baoxin was relieved. As long as the Emperor didn’t get involved, Xiao Jingai wouldn’t be able to do anything.
With Xie Xian’s help, Xiao Baoxin’s heart felt sweet. He looked at Xie Xian’s departing figure with the Emperor, and coincidentally, he turned his head to look. Their gazes met in the air. Clearly, Xie Xian hadn’t expected Xiao Baoxin to look over and was actually stunned for a moment.
Xiao Baoxin bared his little white teeth, and Xie Xian subconsciously returned a smile. Then, he came back to his senses and turned to leave in frustration.
[Xiao Baoxin: Let’s see how long you can be stubborn!]
Since the Emperor had left, Yang Shao could not possibly not follow. He was still talking about his past life with Xiao Jing ‘ai. He got up and followed behind. He saw Xiao Baoxin and Xie Xian’s expressions and his heart sank.
Even if Xiao Baoxin had rejected her proposal on the spot, the blow to him was far less than the shock of seeing the truth with his own eyes.
Previously, he had always thought that she looked down on his poor family and was not worthy of her. However, after listening to what Xiao Jing ‘ai said today, he knew that it was a lie. They should have been together.
Emperor Yu Heng called Xie Xian to his side.”You and Lady Xiao?” He looked like he was watching a good show.
Xie Xian:” That is just a rumor. Some people spread rumors. Why should Your Majesty take it seriously?”
Perhaps it was because his expression was too casual, but Emperor Epsilon believed it and suspected that he had followed a bad trend. This was his honest and straightforward banishment of the casual cavalry, not some irresponsible person.
Moreover, when he thought of the Xie family’s family background, he really wouldn’t marry a commoner from a poor family. Only then did he put down this burning fire of gossip.
“The Xingping County Head is pitiful. She has no enmity with Lady Xiao, so she wouldn’t lie, right?”Xin ‘an King endured it again and again, but in the end, he could not hold it in. He turned back to look at Yang Shao, but he couldn’t see the slightest bit of charm that could charm people.
After Prince Xin ‘an said this, Emperor Yu Heng’s jaw almost dropped. He turned around and looked over.
“How do you know there is no hatred?”
“They have a deep sisterly relationship. Didn’t the Xingping County Lord stand up for Eldest Lady Xiao and was annulled?””It’s because of this that Father conferred her the title of County Lord.””
It’s only been a few months, and Imperial Father already doesn’t remember?
“There are ten thousand explanations for what humans do, but it might not be the best one. Xiao Liu, you…There was still a problem with his judgment of people. He could not just look at things on the surface.”
Emperor Yu Heng had a headache. It was because Xuancheng gave me a headache and I couldn’t stand her, so I banned her. You see, this saves trouble once and for all. The world even says that it’s because of the ‘deep sisterhood.’ Only I know that it’s not. The truth is Xingping…! know.”
The two sisters knew in their hearts whether they were sisters or not.
However, when they saw Yang Shao in the middle, the two of them started to fight. Their relationship was not good either.
“Little Six, you’re too kind and innocent. You always think that all relationships in the world are beautiful. You still have a lot to learn.”Emperor Yu Heng sighed. Usually, he spoke with a clear and logical tone. Today, Xiao Yun’s words showed his standard. Why was it that when it came to earth qi, his brain was not as bright as it used to be when it came to the little lady? Education was a long way to go.
Thinking about it, his aunt had protected him too well. He had never seen the filth in the Palace and had never had Lil ‘Miss serve him when he left the residence…
It seemed like he really had to open his eyes and see the world. Otherwise, if he met another Delicately Pitiful in the future, he might fall for it and make a mistake with women.
It was time to bring the selection of Xin An Wang Zheng Fei on the agenda.
“Alright, they’ve all gone far away. You won’t be able to see anything anymore.”Xiao Baoxin walked forward with a smile, straightened his chest, and looked down at Xiao Jing ‘ai.”
“Second Mother, you have really opened my eyes and broadened my horizons. You actually have such a shameless side. So what if you go all out and marry someone below you? Can General Yang marry you?”
“You want to beg the emperor to make a decision? Don’t you have any brains… She had lived for so many years in vain. Other than pretending to be pitiful, couldn’t she have some decent tricks to throw herself at him?”
“.. How about it, are you going to leave with me, or should I ask the guards to tie you up and take you back in your maid attire?”
Xiao Jing ‘ai bit her lower lip so hard that it was bleeding. She held it in and did not retort, but her eyes seemed to be filled with poison. If looks could kill, Xiao Baoxin believed that he would have died a million times.
“I don’t want to marry into the Yang family, forcing me is just a waste of effort.”She always had a way to make him unhappy.
If she couldn’t win the favor of others, wouldn’t she be annoying?
As long as the Xiao family could afford to lose face.
Xiao Jing ‘ai was determined to marry Yang Shao!
Xiao Baoxin smiled brightly.”Don’t try to be a beauty. I think you’re a waste of General Yang’s talent.”Just like her father, she was from a family that lived in the tiger’s den. It was not easy for her to kill enemies for the country and survive. She could not cheat others like this. With that, she handed her over to Tangli and Youmei to escort her back to the residence with four or five guards. She then returned to the temple.
The group of people gradually dispersed. At this time, a handsome youth wearing a sapphire blue satin walked out from the depths of the forest. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was over eight feet tall and had a willow leaf in his mouth. He looked a little like a ruffian.
Her eyes were bright and deep as she looked in the direction Xiao Jing ‘ai had left and heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had practiced this technique of holding his breath in the army. Otherwise, if he was discovered, wouldn’t he be silenced?
Look, what did he hear?
If those two were not lunatics, wouldn’t that mean that this day…. It changed in minutes?
