Chapter 895: Chapter 895-Freaking Trickery
Xiao Baoxin turned around and hugged him tightly.
Xie Xian was originally just teasing her, but he was suddenly stunned. It was rare for him to enjoy the quiet and beautiful moment that belonged to the two of them.
Ever since Madam Yuan’s death, the couple had been observing filial piety. They had never had a relationship as pure as theirs.
However, how could the two of them, who were originally like heavenly lightning and earthly fire, break up so completely? Therefore, the only thing they could do was to create beauty and purity from distance. They stopped the two of them from being intimate with each other. They had always slept in separate rooms.
With this hug, it was as if all her previous efforts had gone to waste. She missed this hug too much.
I really shouldn’t have teased her…
In the next moment, she was pushed away by Xiao Baoxin. Xie Xian was glad that he was sitting on the couch. Otherwise, he was afraid that his tailbone would be broken.
“.. I’ll go and carry the child.” Xiao Baoxin’s face was flushed red. He turned around and walked out in large strides.
Xie Xian sighed after a long while.

The eldest princess of Xuancheng had completed the task that Emperor Yong Ping had given her by accident. Such a good thing naturally could not be delayed. The next day, she entered the palace to report.
“How did you convince them?”Emperor Yong Ping was curious. He was afraid that Duo Fu had personally made a trip and explained it clearly, but Xie Xian still rejected him.
Could it be that only by sending their Eldest Princess would it be worth it?
Wasn’t he thinking too highly of himself?
The Emperor felt sour in his heart. If it didn’t work out, then it was a pair. If it did, he was thinking if it was too much to praise the Xie family. It was just marrying a maid, but he still had to trouble the Eldest Princess to come forward. Was it too much to control?
“I didn’t persuade him.”
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng said,” I’ve said it all, but Youmei won’t let go. She doesn’t want to get married. When Lady Xiao was sending me out, he was howling, saying that he only wanted a wife and not concubines, that his family was under the control of the plum blossom, and that he was twenty-four years old, had no parents, no brothers, and even had a permanent birth-”
“What kind of condominium does he have? He just surrendered to Daliang and only has a house!”
When he returned home, his mother-in-law and Xiao Baoshu burst out laughing.
However, they couldn’t help but feel that fate was a scary thing. Who would have thought that the North Wu General, who had surrendered to Daliang from afar, would take a fancy to a girl from the Xiao family and marry her?
Madam Xie had already started to prepare the dowry. Although she was going to marry into the Xie family, she was from the Xiao family after all. It was rare for her to have such a good marriage. She couldn’t let the dowry make things difficult for her.
Moreover, that Provincial Governor Wang with permanent assets…It was really hard to say how much permanent production there was, and whether it was enough to walk around and socialize in Jiankang City.
“He said he’s twenty-four years old?”He immediately got to the main point.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng smiled.” That’s right. If he didn’t tell me, I really wouldn’t know. I couldn’t tell. Imperial Brother didn’t tell me either.””
Emperor Yong Ping glanced at Duo Fu.”Have you told Xie Qing?”
Duo Fu’s eyes widened as he tried to recall. He shook his head hesitantly.”I seem to be… I don’t remember, probably not…I think so.”
The case was solved.
There was Mei. In the past, she said that she didn’t agree and would climb up to the top. It was simply because she saw that Zulong Wang wasn’t worthy of her at that age. She was an old cow eating young grass. He only agreed when he heard that she was still young and unmarried.
Therefore, whatever permanent production or not, it could only be ranked at the back.
It was not that he looked down on Wang Zulong. Although he had rewarded him a lot, including the provincial governor and the county marquis himself, living in Jiankang City was a big and small matter. There was no place that did not need money. From the servants at home, the chariots and horses in the residence, food, clothes, to the addition of property, daily social interactions, and gifts, all of them were not small expenses. Especially for someone like him who had built the city from scratch, the money had to be spent like water.
Emperor Yong Ping had planned it out well. Although Ancestral Dragon Wang came from Northern Wu, he could only rely on him as the emperor in Daliang.
Be it honor or money, without him as the emperor, Ancestral Dragon Wang would be restrained in everything he did.
“This plum blossom is quite interesting.”Emperor Yong Ping smiled and touched his chin. He understood that this was not someone who despised the poor and loved the rich, nor was he someone who belittled himself. The reason why he had rejected him previously was purely because he did not like the deceptive age of Wang Zulong.
Once he knew that the other party was a young man, he immediately nodded and agreed. It was quite straightforward.
“Royal brother, what are you thinking? This is the matchmaking you want to do for your subjects. Don’t think about it blindly.”The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng glanced at Emperor Yong Ping. That gaze was filled with unspeakable disdain.
Emperor Yong Ping was stunned and his face gradually turned red.
Duo Fu couldn’t even look. If he wasn’t afraid that it would be too ostentatious to cover his face with his hand, he really wanted to hide. He didn’t want to hear or see. It was too much of a slap in the face.
“What are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?”Emperor Yong Ping reprimanded.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng snorted.
“I’ve heard about your little affair with the Gaoliang County Furen. Think about it. I’ve already heard about it. It’s not that I want to criticize you, but aren’t there enough wives in the palace? Don’t always think about those messy things, Imperial Sister-in-law is such a virtuous person, don’t just think about having fun…”
“If you have the time, you might as well think about the Daliang Empire.”
The eldest princess of Xuancheng was done talking and did not want to argue with Emperor Yong Ping about this matter. She simply could not stand it and really wanted her to interfere. She was not like that and did not want to meddle in other people’s business.
She wasn’t stupid. No matter how ridiculous her brother was, he was still the emperor. It was fine for her to stop talking when she was happy, but she couldn’t go too deep.
She turned around and left.” I’ve done what Imperial Brother asked me to do. I’ll go back to the residence now. I’ve been out for half a day and I miss my son.””
Emperor Yong Ping, who didn’t think that she was going to stop, said, Did you settle it?
Did you settle it?
Isn’t it good to be honest?
She had already confessed, and she was willing to do so. It seemed that she had spent a lot of effort.
“When you enter the palace, don’t come alone. Bring my little nephew into the palace for me to take a look.”Emperor Yong Ping instructed from behind.
“Your little nephew is too young and too torturous. Let’s wait until he’s older.”
Emperor Yong Ping sent off the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng. He felt a headache when he thought of the wife of the Gaoliang County, Xiao Jing ‘ai.
What a f * cking scam.
If he had told him the truth earlier, would he have used so many stupid tricks and even sent Yang Shao, who could overthrow Daliang and become the emperor himself, away to take charge of a provincial governor and hold military power?!
This was like letting a tiger return to the mountain.
However, it was not so simple to transfer Yang Shaoling back to Jiankang. It was not that there was no replacement. What was the use of the Ministry of Personnel? There was still room for discussion before the candidate was decided. The imperial edict had been issued for several months. If you transferred him back for no reason, there had to be a reason for it.
He was afraid that if he dared to give the transfer order here, Yang Shao would dare to rebel-that was a criminal record.
