Chapter 946: Envy, Jealousy, Hate
This storm was like the wind blowing through water without leaving a trace. It quickly dissipated as if it did not exist.
The mourning ceremony was carried out on time.
Only Concubine Chu was so sad that she fainted in front of the mourning hall. Empress Xiao was kind and forgave her from crying.
Haha.
Xiao Baoxin heard it clearly this time. The Princess of South County had a loud voice, which blocked out all the other noises. That was what it meant to be enlightening. Every word was clearly transmitted into his ears.
Did Imperial Concubine Chu not cry and faint in front of the spirit? She was probably beaten unconscious in front of the spirit and her face could no longer be seen, right?
Fortunately, the Princess of South County had come forward to deal with Imperial Concubine Chu. Otherwise, they would have to wait in the cold wind.
A total of 27 days. Just thinking about it was a little unbearable.
The emperor of the Daliang Dynasty died too frequently. Some of the older ones had cried for the emperor three times. I really watched them build the high platform, watched them feast the guests, watched their building collapse. Buried himself.
It was rainy in Jiankang, and it was autumn. These days, it was hard for these courtiers and women who cried every day.
Xie Xian’s original intention was to let Xiao Baoxin go for three to five days and drag his illness out.
However, Mother Xie had more thoughts. Originally, the Xie family was being roasted over a fire. On the surface, no one said anything, but in private, they were all suspicious of the Emperor’s edict.
Even though she did not follow him into the palace, the rumors in the market could not be hidden from her.
In order to prevent the Xie family from being too eye-catching and to prevent Xiao Baoxin from being in the limelight, the old man would drag him over to the palace every day before he was sent to the palace and earnestly advise him not to cause trouble.
Worry.
Her biological grandson was a wife-protecting demon. If they really fought, it would be her granddaughter-in-law’s fault whether she was right or not. She was afraid that the Xie family’s glory would be ruined by her granddaughter-in-law. Grandsons were not easy to persuade, so he could only instruct Madam Wang and Madam Cai to take more care of them. If any of them were to argue with Xiao Baoxin, they must hide it.
Madam Wang and Madam Cai knew that they were the villains to protect their grandchildren’s reputation. They were also mentally tired.
It was a good thing that crying for the Emperor was tiring, tiring, and exhausting. No one dared to make a fuss on the spot. Did they not want their reputation? Did he not want his head anymore? That was disrespectful.
Twenty-seven days. Xiao Baoxin lasted for half a month. He couldn’t go again. Doctor Xue diagnosed that she was pregnant again.
Xiao Baoxin gritted his teeth and broke them into pieces, including his own.
Was she a pig?
One after another, one after another, it was endless.
It had been more than two years since she gave birth to the twins, and her body had just recovered.
The mourners were envious and jealous. At least they could avoid the tedious daily mourning. Empress Xiao was now the Empress Dowager, but she had not officially announced it to the world. Once she heard the good news, she immediately stopped the mourning. Similarly, the eldest princess of Xuancheng was also diagnosed with pregnancy.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng and Emperor Yong Ping were deeply in love. Although she was pregnant, she still went to the palace every day. She did not have to kneel and cry, but her grief was greater than anyone else.
The King of Yuzhang sometimes thought that perhaps after his Imperial Brother died, the only person who truly felt heartbroken was his sister.
He couldn’t even protect himself.
When his brother was alive, he was worried that he would be suspected and guarded against by his brother. He even grew up to be like the King of Huaiyang and the King of Jiangxia. His Imperial Brother was dead, and he was worried that Xie Xian would see him as a thorn in his side and wanted to pull him out.
Regardless of whether his Imperial Brother was dead or alive, fear had become a norm in the Imperial Family. He was only eight years old, and he had already had enough.
Xiao Baoxin, on the other hand, did not have that much of a psychological burden. She was not familiar with the Emperor. Being pregnant was enough to make her upset. If she went to cry, she was afraid that she would cry herself into depression. If she could not go, she would not go. She would be the filial son and grandson of the Emperor.
Mother Xie wanted Xiao Baoxin to show off his presence, but she was pregnant. This was a joyous occasion for the Xie family, so there was no need to worry about his presence. She really had to take good care of her great-grandson. Other than boxing, she would play with the twins every day and also watch over Xiao Baoxin’s daily diet.
The old lady was alive and kicking. Her face was red and she was in high spirits.
In Third Master Xie’s words, he had to die for the old lady’s longevity. Whether it was crying or throwing the basin, it was all his grandson’s business.
The monster didn’t like him. He didn’t give him honor in life, and he didn’t need him in death.
With what? To fight a battle, explore the path to the netherworld, and wade through the water?
###
The twenty-seventh day of national mourning passed quickly.
The new emperor was only five years old and changed his year title to Kangding.
On the 30th day of the 8th month of the 1st year of Kangding, the new Emperor officially ascended the throne and honored Empress Xiao as the Empress Dowager. His biological daughter, Beauty Lu, was honored as the Imperial Consort, and Noble Consort Chu was honored as the Imperial Consort.
Xie Xian specially looked at the congratulatory letter sent by Yang Shao. It was sandwiched in the middle of the congratulatory letters from the various prefectures, neither too late nor too early.
Satisfied with his attitude.
In fact, Xie Xian had already received a secret report that Yang Shao had left his eyes and ears to watch every move in the court when he was first suspected by the Emperor and repeatedly suppressed Mother Yang and Princess Lujiang to go to Jingzhou.
And at this time, he did not raise any objections. Instead, he was obedient for a long time. At least it showed that he was still listening to advice and did not act on impulse because he had fallen out with Xie Xian.
Perhaps he was a useful talent.
..
On the 2nd day of the 9th month, Xie Xian was conferred the title of Grand Tutor. He was the assistant minister of the courtiers and the teacher of the Emperor. He was in charge of the formulation and implementation of etiquette laws.
Ever since the previous dynasty, the title of Grand Tutor had always been an empty title. It was nothing more than a good look on the face and had no real power.
But now, with Xie Xian, he was a true power. He was also the general of Wei, in charge of the north and south armies. Shangshu servant shot palm decision-making and icing on the cake, the three public, the one too Fu, this is called one person, under the ten million people above, no one dares to compete with the one.
The King of Yuzhang was only eight years old. He had a cold today, a sprain the next day, and ate too much the day after. He could miss more than ten court meetings in half a month. It was obvious that his ambition was not here, so he ignored other people’s business and ate, drank, and played every day.
If he wasn’t playing in the manor, he would go to Sikong Manor to play with the eldest princess of Xuancheng.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng had a body and could not afford to do anything, so she played with Xiao Baoshu. This was a match made in heaven and a match made in heaven. If it was not for Xuancheng’s identity, the two of them would have kowtowed to each other and become sworn brothers. It was too compatible and they had played tricks.
As for Chu Yan, he didn’t offend anyone. He was slick and had his hands full.
Sikong Xiao was Xie Xian’s father-in-law. Xu Ze was the only one who was a little awkward, but he was also Xie Xian’s brother-in-law. His arm couldn’t twist his thigh, so Xie Xian’s orders were unimpeded.
..
The new dynasty had just been established, and Xiao Baoxin once again lived a pig-like life in the Xie family.
After the national funeral, the various manors began to move again. First, Empress Xiao’s congratulatory gift was sent to the Xie manor. After that, people came to visit every day like flowing water.
Xiao Baoxin had never been seen behind closed doors.
She only interacted with a few of her close friends in the past, Zu shi, Chu Lingzi, and Xie Wan. She was pregnant a while ago, and she had obtained special permission to not participate in the late emperor’s funeral. Now that the few of them were gathered together, only Xie Wan’s figure was broad. She was six months pregnant and looked like a small pot.
