The next day, Xiao Baoxin’s mouth started to bubble. Xie Xian’s heart ached when he saw this. Although he said he wasn’t worried, how could he not worry just because he said he wasn’t worried? After all, they were siblings.
He regretted staying in the palace for a few more days and enduring Emperor Yong Ping’S habit of forcing him to drink medicine.
However, it was really just a thought. This matter could not be hidden. Sooner or later, he had to say it.
His wife’s scolding was right. When war broke out, the unlucky ones were the ordinary people. Naturally, those who were involved in the war were also unlucky. Every family could not avoid it.
Those who rebelled outside were not all people who jumped out from the cracks of the rocks. Some of their families were still in Jiankang.
It was unknown if he wanted to fish in troubled waters and gain a future, or if he was fooled by those slogans and ideals and followed the rebellion regardless.
At this moment, Emperor Yongping had to say that even though he was young he still had a big heart.
Isn’t there a rebellion in your family?
They didn’t settle accounts. If you wanted to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, you would still be sent. The generals Sikong Xiao brought out had brothers, even fathers and sons who rebelled, but they were all treated equally. As long as you were still on Emperor Yong Ping’s side, he would approve.
The Fan family, which had a marriage alliance with Xie Shan of the third branch, had rebelled against the King of Jin ‘an outside. Old Xie San was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth and cursed until his mouth was dry. If cursing could kill someone, then Provincial Governor Fan would have died a hundred times over.
She pretended that Madam Wang had come to the door and called off the engagement.
This time, Xie Shan was beaten like an eggplant by Shuang. It was impossible for her to not withdraw the marriage. She also knew that if she followed a family with a background of rebellion, it would be a blessing if she was not punished by the Emperor in the future. They did not dare to take the risk. Therefore, Xie Shan did not complain at all about her father’s high-profile annulment of the engagement. Instead, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Qin Ke had retired. She had already turned fourteen in May this year. It was currently a national funeral, and the imperial court did not allow her to discuss marriage at this point. In addition, it was unknown when the turmoil would be settled. If it really lasted for a year and a half, she would become an old lady who could not be married.
In the past, he had laughed at Xiao Bao for being unreliable, for his good marriage with the Yuan family to be ruined, and for having an affair with a Humble Class General.
But now, the luckiest person was Xiao Baoxin. With such a bad reputation, he was almost the plague of Jiankang City. He had completely charmed Xie Xian and married him like an eyeball. He was about to drop his hands from holding him. b
She got pregnant the moment she stepped into the house, and she got a boy as soon as she got pregnant.
Her face had been slapped so badly that she couldn’t even catch up to Xiao Baoxin now.
Her mouth was full of fire as she sat with Xiao Baoxin. She didn’t know what the two of them had eaten together to make them look like a pair.
Xie Shan’s mother gritted her teeth. Even Xie Shan, who was anxious and angry, knew in her heart that no one could blame anyone for what the situation had caused. There was no way to persuade her. What was going on with Xiao Baoxin? He was pregnant with a child and was provided with good food and drinks. Why was he so angry?
“Baoxin, is there something wrong with you?”
It was impossible to miss her husband. She had been fine these few days when she was not around. There was no reason for Xie Xian to be so bubbly the moment he came back.
Mrs. Yuan thought about it a little more.” Do you miss your mother? If you really miss her, then…” Go back and stay for a while. Also, bring our family’s midwives and doctors over.”
“Mother, bring a few more and Rong An Hall will be empty.’Xie Wan teased.
“Sister-in-law loves her daughter-in-law.” Madam Wang was upset and worried about her daughter’s marriage.
How could Xiao Baoxin not know of his mother-in-law’s good intentions? He only shook his head with a bitter smile. ‘It’s not about my mother. The rebel army has already reached Jiangxia. I don’t know if he has come out of Jingling My brother is still here. Because he is an official, he can’t move…”
No wonder. Everyone came to a realization.
That was the news that Xie Xian had brought back. Mother Xie could not help but complain in her heart. He did not hide anything and told his pregnant wife everything.
Was this something that could be said?
See, the fire was on in the blink of an eye.
“The rebel army is already that far away?” Lady Cai’s belly was already protruding, and she didn’t dare to put on any makeup. She didn’t look well, and she looked three to five years older.
One of her nephews was also in the army in Jiangxia. These days, he had been in contact with his family, and the family was very worried. They were afraid that they would die, and they were also afraid that they would make a mistake in their thinking and turn to the rebel army, smearing the reputation of their family.
Emperor Yong Ping was open-minded and was indeed sought after by all parties in a short period of time. However, no one could guarantee that the emperor would still be so open-minded after winning. After all, the emperor was a person who could give orders at any time.
The rebel army had already reached Jiangxia, so wasn’t the army at the city gates? This was exactly what they had been worried about these days.
The family of women and children did not have any thoughtful opinions. They were just jittery and worried about their own affairs.
As for the matters of the imperial court, none of them could explain it clearly. Even if they could explain it clearly, it was not up to them to decide.
Mother Xie secretly gave Xiao Baoxin some relief pills and prepared to send the Xie family’s men of sacrifice to Jingling to investigate.
“Husband has already sent someone over.” Xiao Baoxin told the truth.
“Since that’s the case, there’s only so much we can do here. You have to take good care of your body.” You’re fine, and the child in your stomach is fine. Otherwise, the in-laws will blame us for not taking good care of you.”
“Don’t worry, it’s not like I haven’t seen that child Boshu. One look and I can tell that he’s blessed.”
As for the in-law’s wife, let’s not talk about it first. The son was the flesh that fell from the mother’s body. The mother and son were connected. If the in-law’s wife knew about it, she might be worried. Sikong Xiao has already gone out to quell the chaos. I think there should be good news in a few days. Let’s see the situation first.”
There were many unfinished words that were left unsaid. No matter how one looked at it, Madam Xie was not a strong person. Xiao Baoxin, as an elder sister, had already gotten angry when he heard this. Wouldn’t Madam Xie be scared sick?
These days, the words that Xiao Baoxin heard the most were ‘a good man will be blessed by the heavens’ and ‘a blessed man’. She had no choice but to say these few words of consolation. They were all good intentions, so she accepted them.
Madam Yuan’s words hit the bottom of her heart. She had never thought of telling Madam Xie that she knew her mother well. She scolded her mother more viciously than anyone else and doted on Xiao Baoshu more than anyone else.
If she knew about this, wouldn’t she burn herself to death?
Xiao Baoxin had made up his mind not to tell Madam Xie. He would just hold it in.
Mrs. Yuan was afraid that Xiao Bao would get angry and get sick again, so she changed the kitchen to make some fresh fruits for him three times a day.
In less than two days, Madam Xie came to the door angrily and threw Xiao Baoshu’s letter to the ground in front of Xiao Baoxin. On closer look, her eyes were still a little swollen. Clearly, she had cried..
