” According to the direction of the teacup, it was thrown from the northwest corner.” Xiao Baoxin smiled ambiguously. The first thing she saw when she went upstairs was that direction.
Her words attracted everyone’s attention.
“It’s the Huaiyang Prince’s residence-” Xie Wan exclaimed.
She had also noticed that there was a beautiful woman there, but she could not recognize who it was. The Prince of Huaiyang was famous for his good looks. Even the Princess Consort had found a small house in the Wen family.
The Prince of Huaiyang loved to be beautiful, but his princess was not stingy. She brought out pairs of concubines for all kinds of occasions. The concubines and concubines were beautiful, and they were not the same each time.
This time, he didn’t know who it was, but just from the way he was dressed, he looked like a peacock with a feather stuck in his tail. He was terrifyingly gorgeously dressed, so he could recognize him accurately.
Actually, Mother Xie didn’t know. After all, she almost drank a cup of tea. How could she not be concerned?
She knew which family it was from at a glance, but she didn’t reveal it.
He was bearing the burden for his grandson.
Now that the fight for the position of the Crown Prince was so intense in the court, all the aristocratic families were in chaos. The Prince of Huaiyang said that he was a proper king, but Xiao Baoxin slapped the teacup back and scalded the Crown Prince’s concubine. The Crown Princess ‘face was also injured. They had already offended one family, so there was no need to drag the Prince of Huaiyang into this.
The Crown Prince and Xie Xian were not on good terms, and their stances were different. To be honest, if he offended Xie Xian, then so be it. If he didn’t offend Xie Xian, then it wouldn’t be good.
The Prince of Huaiyang had yet to take a clear side. Mother Xie did not want to drag her grandson down at this time and add another enemy.
“You did the right thing.” Mother Xie patted Xiao Baoxin’s hand and expressed her appreciation for her silence.
It was said that her granddaughter-in-law was arrogant and domineering, and she did whatever she wanted. However, she just looked on and did not eat what she should not eat. She did not eat what she should eat. She knew what was important and what was important. She had ideas and brains.
He had a face, a brain, and a body. How could she not like him?
“Mother, why do I feel that something is wrong on the other side?”Lady Cai leaned against the window and looked out. Her attention was on the Emperor’s viewing platform. Who cared about the boatmen? She was watching the royal family.
“In the past, there were always people talking and laughing on stage, but now everyone’s faces are tense and the atmosphere is stiff. Also, our Ah Lang isn’t on stage either.”
Ah Lang was talking about Xie Xian.
The others were fine, but when she heard that it was about Xie Xian, Mother Xie became anxious. She walked to the window and looked across the river.
Helplessly, her old eyes were blurry and she really couldn’t see clearly. It was so blurry that she couldn’t even see whether it was a person or a ghost.
Xie Wan also ran over and stuck her head out.”
Xie Xian was favored by the Emperor and usually stood by the Emperor’s side. Last year, he was promoted to Minister, so he was even more indispensable. It was definitely abnormal for him not to be by the Emperor’s side.
“Should we get someone to take a look?” Madam Wang asked Mother Xie.
Although Mother Xie was anxious, she knew that she could not be careless.”Let’s wait and see. We don’t know anything about the court, so don’t blindly get involved.”Although he said that, he was worried.
It was an eventful time, and the slightest abnormality was not necessarily a good thing.
Having seen many storms and waves, he knew that most of the unpleasant things in life were exaggerated. It would be good to say that one or two out of a hundred things would go well. He was living a life of joy in hardship, deceiving himself and others.
He didn’t even have the heart to watch the dragon boat. Even the food on the table was neither salty nor bland.
Madam Yuan only returned halfway through the meal. She went to the Crown Princess’s place and waited until she saw the doctor examine the Crown Princess ‘face and feet before she stood up and left. As for Secondary Consort Sun, she did not go at all.
The Crown Princess was clearly not on good terms with Secondary Consort Sun. If she really chased after her to make things up for her, it would seem like she was deliberately disgusted with the Crown Princess.
She did not say anything else. She would not visit her house to give gifts in the future. Of course, this was Madam Wang’s job in the future. Who asked Madam Wang to take charge of the family now? She only needed to put in good words. The matter of cleaning up the mess was left to Madam Wang.
Madam Yuan did not have any other intentions. She did not want to get involved in the work of the middle-aged man, or else there would be nothing for Madam Wang to do. Only Madam Wang was busy every day, scheming and scheming.
She was just standing up for Xiao Baoxin. Logically speaking, she should have brought Xiao Baoxin along. However, Xiao Baoxin was pregnant. If he accidentally injured his body, the gains would not make up for the losses. She wasn’t afraid that Xiao Baoxin would be at a disadvantage if she fought him, but she was afraid that Xiao Baoxin would stretch his waist when he hit her.
With Mrs. Yuan around, she had used Xiao Baoxin’s body to block everything. Only her mother-in-law could do it.
Apart from the Crown Princess, Lady Yuan also went to the manager of the Ruyi Restaurant and rewarded the waiter with five hundred taels of silver. She was never stingy when it came to using silver to buy a good reputation, so she didn’t want others to talk about it behind her back.
Even if the waiter ran errands in Ruyi Restaurant for his entire life, he would not be able to earn this much money. Moreover, the reward was still a reward. The doctor’s consultation fees were still paid by the Xie family. How could he be dissatisfied?
The hit on the head was really painful, but it was not as painful as the pot of hot water splashing on someone.
He was afraid that someone would find out and use him as a scapegoat. When no one was paying attention, he had secretly scratched his head with the broken teacup, which was why he had bled so much…
If it’s useful or useless, you have to use a trick to hurt yourself first.
He was afraid that if the noble got hurt, he wouldn’t even have a hair left.
As expected, he did not bleed in vain. He could only be happy. Naturally, he was talking about the good things of the Xie family. The Xie family took the blame, and he still got 500 taels. Where was he going to reason?
“This is all because of the boss. You have to be more careful and work hard in the future.’lt wasn’t that the innkeeper was blind, he didn’t covet his little bit of silver. “Don’t stuff it in. Who’s snatching it from you?”
“This person was burned for nothing?” Don’t let them find you.
The shopkeeper rolled his eyes at him.” Since you’re injured, go home and recuperate for a while. Shut up and don’t talk nonsense.” One could say that one had seen too little of the world. One could say that the people above lived so comfortably and might suffer a loss.”
“If the higher-ups want to settle the matter, there will naturally be people who are aggrieved. It has nothing to do with us. When they were flamboyant, who did they look down on?”

“Did you hear? Xiao Baoxin is up to no good again. He blocked the Xie family’s Matriarch’s teacup and hit the waiter. The waiter’s pot of hot water splashed all over the Crown Prince’s concubine.”
“I heard that Xiao Baoxin is up to no good again. He poured a pot of hot water all over the Crown Prince’s concubine.”
“.. He heard that Xiao Baoxin was up to no good again, fighting with the Crown Prince’s concubine. He poured a pot of hot water all over the Crown Prince’s concubine. Her face was probably disfigured!”
Rumors spread like wildfire in Ruyi Pavilion. Xiao Baoxin had been promoted to the God of Plagues in Jiankang City, and wherever he went, there would be plagues.
In the end, even the person who spread the rumor didn’t believe it, and the opening line changed.
” 1 heard-1 don’t know if it’s true or not, but that Xiao Baoxin…” Bala..
