Chapter 680: Swear Not to Take the Blame
Translator: 549690339
“You guys really don’t want to keep the face of the royal family anymore. In front of so many people at Swallow Lake, you are really afraid that the royal family will still have some face left in the human world. Are you really not going to think about it?”
Emperor Yong Ping was heartbroken.
“Because of such a small matter, they beat their heads up!
“It’s not a small matter. It’s the Eleventh Imperial Uncle who sided with outsiders. Otherwise, would they have fought?”The eldest princess of Xuancheng didn’t care. She couldn’t let her Baoshu take the blame.
She wasn’t going to carry it either!
“Shi Ning County Master couldn’t control her husband and fooled around with Eleventh Imperial Uncle. It’s my family’s fault. It’s Xiao Baoshu’s fault for making their relationship clear and picking on his face. Brother, look at what happened to his face after she scratched it!”
“I, Bao Shu, have been to the battlefield and killed enemies. How can I fight with a little lady? Of course, I had to go up and protect him. In the end, the Eleventh Imperial Uncle asked his guards to beat me up! Then what can my treasure tree do? Of course, they had to protect me. The guards you sent out had to protect me as well. Then, they fought…”
At the beginning, the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng hugged him a little. She knew that she couldn’t call him too close, which made people feel unreserved.
in the end, as he spoke, he got carried away and became excited. He couldn’t control his ‘my treasure tree’, and his desire to protect his husband was
obvious.
Emperor Yong Ping’s mouth twitched when he heard that. Putting aside who was right and who was wrong, this sister of his hated to get married. She had to get married as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knew how many jokes she would make?
Yun Ying was not married to a little girl. Although they were engaged, it still made people feel uncomfortable to hear her say ‘who’s my family.
“Minister Xie, you were also present at that time. Tell me what the truth is.” “Your Majesty, the first person I want to sue is Xiao Baoshu, and the second is this Xie Xian…”
“Don’t bully my brother-in-law. Did my brother-in-law offend you? My brother-in-law didn’t even lift a finger and was almost knocked down by the guards of the wangfu. Now, you’re accusing my brother-in-law here, your uncle. Eleventh King, you can’t be so heartless!”
“Who are you scolding!” If not for the fact that Emperor Yong Ping was still present, the royal guards outside the royal study would have pounced on Xiao Baoshu and bitten him to death. His words were too unpleasant.
His brother-in-law was easy to talk to.
Damn it, was Xiao Baoshu stupid, or was he deliberately speaking in such a way
to annoy people?
How many aristocratic families had Xie Xian destroyed by himself?
His own uncle and aunt had taken it to the flag, and he had the nerve to pretend
to be a good person here.
” You’re the one with no conscience. Your entire family-”
“Eleventh King.” Xie Xian decisively interrupted the Prince of Huaiyang’s hurtful words.” Don’t be so rude.””
The Prince of Huaiyang suddenly came back to his senses and knew that he should not have said these words. His father was now in Xuzhou to quell the rebellion. He was doing things for the court and the emperor.
But what did he mean by asking him to be kind?
He had no morals?
” This Prince misspoke, but Xie Pushe, please leave a word of ‘Virtue’. The right and wrong are in the hearts of the people. You can’t suppress the imperial family just because the Xie and Xiao families are powerful!
“You, Xie Xian, now have the power to dominate the court. With a single call, hundreds of people will respond. You are domineering and arbitrary.”
“Eleventh King, why do you say that?” Xie Xian slightly raised his eyebrows. Clearly, he was somewhat puzzled as the flames of war had reached him. “What did I do wrong? Why did the Eleventh King have such a misunderstanding? If the Eleventh King remembers, I once tried to resolve the misunderstanding and wanted a truce between the two sides, but the Eleventh King refused. Although I have guards from the Xie family by my side, the Eldest Princess and the Eleventh King are still members of the royal family. It is disrespectful for my
Xie family to act rashly.”
In short, this matter was classified as an internal family conflict.
This was where Xie Xian was the most cunning. With the guards of the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng around, Xiao Baoshu would not be at a disadvantage. If he got involved, it would only make things more complicated. Therefore, not only him, but also the Xi family, the Lu family, and the Zhuge family, he did not
let them go.
It was really a few aristocratic families working together with the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng to fight against the Prince of Huaiyang. If word got out,
it would not be good.
See, he didn’t make a move and the King of Huaiyang pulled him in. If he really did make a move, wouldn’t he be labeled as a rebel?
Although he was not afraid, there was really no need to tear his face apart with the Prince of Huaiyang at this stage.
He had no enmity with the Prince of Huaiyang. Moreover, he really could not see that the Prince of Huaiyang had any intention of standing up for Yuan Chen today. At least, when the two sides met, they did not provoke each other at first. Later on, they fought because they were in a hurry.
It was also because Xiao Baoshu was a troublemaker and had a little bit of a mouth. He had pulled out the secrets of Prince Huaiyang and Yuan Chen. Prince Huaiyang would not be so angry that he would not even put the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng in his eyes. He would just do it.
It was not that he was boasting, but he, Xie Xian, still had some strength. Now, there were really not many people who dared to go against him.
However, the reason was that Shi Ning County Master had scolded Xiao Baoxin behind his back. There was a reason for this. No wonder Xiao Baoshu was so protective of his sister. In fact, this was a good character that could be maintained and developed.
“Yeah, why do you always talk about my brother-in-law? Did my brother-in- law offend you?” Xiao Baoshu did not kneel anymore. He stood up straight and shouted at Prince Huaiyang.
However, when he thought of how the King of Huaiyang liked to spit, he took two steps back.
The most embarrassing thing was that he whispered to the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng, “Stand back, don’t spray your face.”
The King of Huaiyang,”! can’t strangle you to death, you little bastard!”
“Your Majesty!” Prince Huaiyang was clearly unable to control his temper. He was on the verge of losing control. His eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted, “Your Majesty, are you just going to watch the Xie and Xiao families bully me, the dignified Prince of Daliang, and sit idly by?!”
“That’s right, Imperial Older Brother must help Chen Younger Sister!”The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng did not forget to pay attention to Xiao Baoshu as she watched the show. She immediately received his little gaze, signaling her to stand up for him.
Since she and her Baoshu were bullied, she would definitely not shirk her responsibility.” Look, look.” She pointed at the dried blood on her lips. She had bitten it before entering Taiji Palace.
It was inevitable that they would bump into each other in a real fight, and it would hurt, but they really couldn’t be used as evidence. Even if they were bruised, they couldn’t roll up their arms and sleeves for others to see. It was indecent.
“How can Eleventh Imperial Uncle treat me like this because of a male pet?” “Who does Yuan Chen think he is? Who does the Ning County Head think he is? How dare he attack me? Imperial Brother, are you going to watch your sister be bullied by them?!”
“Xuan Cheng, I never thought of arguing with you. It was Xiao Baoshu who was arrogant and domineering. You’re going to marry into the Xiao family, but you can’t lie through your teeth.”Prince Huaiyang was so angry that the flesh on his lower jaw trembled.
“Yuan Chen? Yuan Chen is nothing, but he is the chief historian of the Huaiyang Prince’s Mansion. Xiao Baoshu insulted me in front of everyone. No matter if it’s the prince of Daliang or the elder of Xuan City, there’s no reason for me to be insulted by him!”
