Chapter 906: Not a Good Bird
Xie Jiu clutched his chest. His heart was aching.
“Aren’t we biological uncle and nephew? If I don’t side with you, who else would I side with?””We’re brothers and sisters, so I’ll believe you!” Third Master Xie said sincerely. You can’t be wrong.”
Xie Jiu was speechless.
I thank you for your kindness.
I can’t be wrong, but you seem to be wrong, very wrong.
He couldn’t understand how the introverted and wise grandfather, or the still lively and ruthless Mother Xie, could have mutated into such a strange person like Third Master Xie, who was not on the same line as ordinary people.
“Thank you for your trust, Third Uncle, but I don’t care. The innocent will be innocent, and the dirty will be dirty. I’ve never done anything wrong in my life, so I’m not afraid of ghosts knocking on my door in the middle of the night! This matter has nothing to do with me. I will sit upright wherever I go.”
Even if Xie Jiu was holding back his anger, he had to grit his teeth and hold on, to show his innocence and his magnanimity.
If he was going to suffer in silence, he should at least show some magnanimity.
Gritting his teeth and stomping his feet, he swore. That wouldn’t do. It was too low-class and too ungentlemanly.
“Exactly, exactly. The one who is clear is clear.”Xie San Ye said that he was a real person, and he believed that his nephew was a heroic, open-minded, and not an ordinary person.
Just like what his elder brother had said, his nephew was a big shot.
He still trusted his elder brother’s judgment. Moreover, it was not tiring to interact with him. He was carefree and could say anything without any scruples. It was unlike when Xie Xian was following her, who always seemed to have to hold it up.
She wasn’t as free as she was with Xie Jiu.
Third Master Xie thought to himself that this might be the psychological trauma of his youth. The trauma that caused Little Xie to look down on him was still there. Every time he faced the handsome and gentle man who had grown up, there was still a sense of distance. It was probably because he was despised so badly back then that his body had memories.
Xie Jiu didn’t ask Third Master Xie to stay for dinner. He was in no mood, afraid that he would choke to death.
Was this the will of the heavens?
Xie Jiu wasn’t sure.
Just by looking at whether there was a follow-up, one would know if it was fate or man-made…
He just didn’t understand that this Xie Xian was really a popular person. Even if he hid in the Xie family’s residence in Black Clothes Alley, he could still travel two miles. His ability to invite disaster and invite disaster had grown.
In the evening, Twelfth Madam Wang came back from the palace. She was very unhappy and her face was tired.
When she was living in the Xie family, Empress Xiao was not very close to Twelfth Mother Wang. Instead, after she gradually distanced herself from Xiao Baoxin, the Xie family could not openly tear apart Empress Xiao, so Twelfth Mother took over. After that, Empress Xiao and Wang Shier Niang were like good friends who had seen each other again. Each of them would be called into the palace a few times.
“Recently, the situation in the palace has not been good, and Imperial Consort Chu is becoming more and more domineering. From what I can see, it seems to be very provocative.” Wang Shierniang and Xie Jiu said.
She was clearly growing more and more lively, but she used the excuse that her wrists, feet, and entire body were hurting when she held the child. She only half-bowed to the Empress and lazily sat and stood without any manners. It was only because Empress Xiao had a good temper that she would have been popular long ago.
Not to mention in the palace, even if it was a slightly more respectable family outside, who didn’t have a nanny to feed them? It was your turn to hug and coax them.
Who was he lying to?
However, from Empress Xiao’s face, which was as if she was used to it, it was obvious that this was already the norm for Imperial Consort Chu.
“The death of the Gaoliang County Furen must have been blamed on the Empress by the Emperor.”
The previous dynasty was not peaceful, and the harem had not been peaceful recently.
Emperor Yong Ping’s head was in pain. It could be seen from the more green and black his eyes were. Of course, the advantage was that he was relying on him more and more. Presumably, it wasn’t an urgent matter. Unless it was time to trouble Xie Xian, the Emperor didn’t want to run to the Xie residence every two or three days.
Those who knew that he thought highly of Xie Xian, those who didn’t know would think that he, the Emperor, was a puppet that was held in Xie Xian’s hands.
“The Empress did it? Does the emperor really think so?” Twelfth Madam Wang changed her clothes and sat down on the bed. She pulled her handkerchief and thought about it more and more.
“Does the Emperor value the Gaoliang Junfuren so much because she took her anger out on the Empress?”
Twelfth Madam Wang was generous. The Gaoliang Countess had indeed died a tragic death, but she first betrayed her husband, implicated her children, and killed them without stopping. She then hooked up with the Emperor and got pregnant. These were all rumors that spread later. If there was no real evidence, it would at most be a rumor. However, since the stomach of the Gaoliang Countess had been dug out, the direction was too obvious, so most people believed about sixty to seventy percent of it.
Wang Shierniang was biased towards Empress Xiao.
After all, she was the first wife. Moreover, if such a thing were to spread, it would hurt the reputation of the entire royal family…
“How can the emperor blame the empress for this?”
“If the emperor valued her, he wouldn’t have kept hiding from her. It’s probably because he drank too much and became muddleheaded.”Behind the Emperor’s back, Xie Jiu spoke with much more impudence.
“A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, and stealing is not as good as not stealing.”
This Gaoliang County Furen was first a stunning beauty, and then a royal aunt. It was too taboo. Perhaps the stimulation she gave the Emperor was too strong, and it was a mistake due to a moment of stimulation.
Hearing this, Wang Shier ‘niang snorted coldly. This was a man.
She glared at Xie Jiu angrily. They were not good people.
“The emperor is angry at the empress ‘methods.”If it was really the Empress who did it.
“Think about it. When the rumors came out without any evidence, how many people took them seriously? How many people were just watching a joke? The Gaoliang County Furen is not popular. Don’t look at how she put righteousness above family and reported the Huaiyang Prince, but her own children were also involved…”
“This is what most people in the world can’t stand. It’s too ruthless. No one would really think that putting righteousness before family was something worth advocating. Only the emperor would use it to deceive people. Who would have thought that they would be wary of the people around them?”
“Therefore, no matter if it was a man or a woman in Jiankang City, they could not bear to see the lady of Gaoliang County doing well. They wished for her to die.”
“She can die, but not now, and not in this way-”
“Especially not in this way.” Xie Jiu shook his head.” If I dig out her stomach, do you think it matches the rumors that she’s pregnant with the Emperor’s child?””
“How can the Emperor not be angry?”
Excluding this point, perhaps the Emperor’s desire to kill the Countess of Gaoliang was no weaker than anyone else’s.
It was just a one-time thing, why was he so serious?
There really was…Just hit him.
Could it be that he would really take the risk of bringing her into the palace? What’s the point of jumping up and down until everyone knows?
Of course, their Emperor couldn’t be inferred according to common sense. He was also a person with a strange brain. He could actually get together with the Gaoliang County Madam and the former King Huaiyang’s Princess Consort. Was he afraid that others wouldn’t say that they had dirty dealings, afraid that no one would complain for the King of Huaiyang and fall into the Emperor’s trap?
If King Linchuan was still alive and not completely dead, and he rose up now, he would have a stronger stance. Who knew how many prefectures would rebel.
It was too convincing!
