What else could Guo Shangyi say?
The future empress had spoken, so she had the capital to argue with the group of women, but she had nowhere to display it. She bowed, raised her head high, and retreated.
“If you look straight ahead and raise your chin too high, it will give people a sense of arrogance and bad manners. Secondly, you won’t be able to pay attention to your feet. It won’t be good if you fall.”Xie Wan coldly opened her mouth to talk to her about rules and etiquette. She could talk her to death.
Guo Shangyi did not manage to swallow her breath and almost choked to death.
He fled in panic.
Xie Chan and Xie Juan of the second branch were dumbfounded. Back then, they were the ones who had eaten pig oil and were blinded. They followed Xie Shan to mock Xie Wan. With this mouth of hers, they dared to show off in front of the future empress. Who were they?
So it turned out that he had been merciful in the past?
Ever since Wang Jia fell, Xie Shan had been dismissed from the family, Xie Chan, Xie Juan had no role model, the eldest son, Xie Xian, had been promoted to the position of the prime minister, leading to the eldest son, Xie Chan, Xie Juan did not dare to jump out to be a demon.
It could be said that other than this event, the Xie family had not been so lively for a long time.
Xiao Baoxin looked a little excited.
in my stomach, Zhen expressed that I had also seen a good show. In the past, when I was the Emperor, I had no intention of managing the harem. I wanted to perform immediately and was busy scheming against my brothers. After I became the Emperor, there were too many harem. How could I have the opportunity to watch these battles of wits and courage between women at such a close distance? Everyone was eager to pretend to be ignorant in front of him.
I’ve never seen it.
His eyes were opened in an instant. He liked this aunt!
Xiao Baoxin expressed that this child who had not seen the world did not give him a chance. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be more refreshing to directly knock him down with a punch?
“Seventh Madame didn’t sleep well last night?” Xiao Baoxin asked with a smile.
“You’re so angry.”
Xie Wan raised her eyebrows and turned to Xiao Ning.”Cousin Ning, don’t blame me for being impatient with the rules.” Regardless of whether you did well or not, with just a word of rule, you won like an uncrowned king. This is what suppresses people.”
“Why would I blame you? I have to thank you.”
“How can I not see that Seventh Madame is doing this for my own good?” Xiao Ning smiled as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden. I grew up in Yizhou. Although I was in charge of the rear residence, I had never seen the world. Now that I entered Jiankang City, I showed my timidity. We only wanted to do our best, but because of a moment of magic, we were almost caught- -what Seventh Madame said was true, we were born in an aristocratic family.
Xiao Ning felt disgusted that she was fooled by Shang Yi.
She had indeed suffered a blow when she entered Jiankang this time. Putting aside her face, she did not think that she was very good-looking. The important thing was that she had an inner beauty. However, when she looked to the side, not to mention the distant ones, the few people from the Xie family, the Chu family, and even the painting of Third Aunt of the Xiao family were all presentable. She felt that she was instantly inferior.
It could be said that apart from Xiao Baoxin, she always felt that she was lacking something in front of everyone.
So the Empress Dowager sent Rong Yi down to talk to her about the ways of the palace and her requests. In a few days, she was straightened out. It was as if she was inferior to others in every way. If she did not study harder, she would not even be able to compare to the Fourth Consort, who was eyeing her covetously and preparing to enter the palace. It was as if she was not worthy of ruling the harem.
Little did he know that Guo Shangyi had selfish motives and taught the Empress. In the future, at least she would be able to speak in front of him and be put in an important position. She used the name of the empress dowager to pull off the big flag. In the end, she overdid it and was broken by Xie Wan.
“If we’re talking about aristocratic families, which one of us, the Xie and Xiao Families, are afraid of?”Xie Wan sneered. “It’s not her place to point fingers here.”
“That’s right.” Xiao Ning nodded.
She had the support of the Xiao and Xie families. Even the Emperor did not dare to underestimate her, so what was she afraid of? As long as she didn’t seek death like Empress Wang, who would dare to touch her if she lived a lifetime of wealth?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. This was because Guo Rongyi had repeatedly been greedy and had even changed her hobby of not liking anything spicy. She was afraid that she would not get along with the Emperor and would not be able to eat anywhere in the palace. He was also afraid that the preferences of the higher-ups would be too obvious, leaving it to others to make a fuss about. Even this banquet was filled with the taste of health.
“Men, go and ask the imperial chef to make two more spicy dishes.”
It could be seen that he was about to rise.
The palace maid did not dare to disobey. Even Shang Yi was chased back to the room to cry and went to take the errand.
After this meal, Xiao Ning didn’t hold herself back like before. She was quite cheerful and relaxed.
Wang Qiang and Wang Shier Niang came from the Wang family together. In the past they also had contacts, but they were not close. Ever since they lived together in the Xie family, things gradually got better. They also had children, but they talked a lot. After eating, they went their separate ways. It was actually these two people who left together.
Xiao Baoxin and Xie Wan walked together.
“Why are you so angry today?” Xiao Baoxin asked,” Did Guo Shangyi offend you?”
Xie Wan looked around and the maids slowed down. Of course, she did not know that such a distance was useless to Xiao Baoxin and the other maids. Martial artists had sharp ears and eyes, and this was what they practiced.
“I did get someone to be my gun.” She said helplessly,” Do you think I’m so bored that I’m willing to do this for her?”She couldn’t be bothered to care about such a small matter. After Xiao Ning and the Emperor had arranged the marriage, how much did she like to be treated coldly by others?
He had already raised it up high, but you had to pull him down for no reason. Was there any meaning in that?
Xiao Baoxin heard that there was a hidden meaning behind those words.
-It’s Grandmother’s idea.” Xie Wan did not lie to her at all/She probably can’t stand the fact that a daughter from an aristocratic family is being treated like a puppet by the royal family. She wants me to seize the opportunity to teach our future empress a lesson.””
Hearing this, he knew that Xie Wan did not like Xiao Ning.
However, Mother Xie was an elder, so it was inappropriate for her to criticize Guo Shangyi on the surface, as if she was taking advantage of her seniority.
He wasn’t afraid of Guo Shangyi’s dissatisfaction, as the Xie family didn’t care at all. He was afraid that Xiao Ning wouldn’t recognize a good person’s heart and would hold a grudge in her heart. The younger generation did not care about these things. If they really quarreled, it would just be a quarrel between young ladies.
“It’s just that we haven’t had the chance to.”Xie Wan said.
Therefore, this was all the resentment that had accumulated over the past few days.
“Strange, I think Seventh Madame is going all out.”Xiao Baoxin laughed.
This showed Mother Xie’s wisdom. If she brought up Xie Wan, even if she broke up with Xiao Ning, there was still Xie Xian. As long as he was still valued by the Emperor, no one could do anything to Xie Wan.
However, if Xiao Baoxin was involved, it would be different. She was Xie Xian’s wife, and she was separated from Xiao Ning by a layer. If they really didn’t get along, Xie Xian would be implicated.
Old women are dry and old horses are slippery. There’s nothing wrong with that. He schemed against people to the bone..
