The emperor showed just the right amount of surprise and anger: "This is unreasonable. I will definitely investigate thoroughly in the entire capital."
Pointing to the man in black outside: "If you stay, I will give you an explanation."
Jinse curled her lips and said nothing.
She knew that the emperor's heart was in a wrong direction, but unexpectedly he even stepped out of the carriage.
Just as he was about to leave, he found Xie Xiuqi sitting in a wheelchair with a calm look on his face. He didn't say anything, but it made people feel endlessly sad.
He smiled calmly: "Father, the birth of my son is all due to the blessings bestowed by my father. It is a gift to live to this day. There is no need to make such a big fuss for my son."
"Besides," Xie Xiuqi lowered his eyes, "My father is so kind to me today, and I have given him such a good marriage. I am already satisfied."
These words were spoken frankly and mingled with deep admiration for the emperor.
Looking at the pair of clear eyes below, the emperor felt mixed emotions in his heart, and for a moment he did not dare to look at them.
He is also his son. Although Xie Xiuluo lost his mother early, he still has his favor.
Xie Xiuming's mother-in-law has a powerful family and is not lacking in love.
Only Xie Xiuqi... grew up in a corner where no one paid attention, and could still be so sensible.
The emperor suddenly felt compassion.
"Xiu Qi, tomorrow is your wedding day. How can you do such a big thing as marrying a princess without your father?"
"Wait a minute, after you and Nangong Jin visit Concubine Shu, send someone to my private treasury to collect the reward."
Xie Xiuqi lowered his head, arousing a hint of ridicule, but his voice was as gentle as before:
"Father, how can this make..."
"Okay," after sending out the reward, the emperor's heart also calmed down, and he waved away and thanked Xiu Qi with peace of mind, "Father, I'm tired, Xiu Qi, please take Nangong Jin to see Concubine Shu first."
After Jinse said goodbye, she pushed Xie Xiuqi's wheelchair.
Before leaving, she glanced at a small door in the imperial study room intentionally or unintentionally, and then left.
After the two left, Xie Xiuluo walked out of the door and complained as soon as they met:
"Father, that bitch Nangong Jin would rather marry that loser Third Brother than marry me, and you are still marrying Third Brother."
Compared with Xie Xiuqi before, the emperor's face instantly darkened.
"Luo'er, that's your third brother."
Xie Xiuluo raised his neck and refused to give up: "What third brother? He is just a bitch born of a barbarian woman!"
The emperor's face was ashen and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he slapped Xie Xiuluo on the face.
Xie Xiuluo covered his face in disbelief: "Father, you promised my mother that you would treat me well."
The emperor sighed and exclaimed:
"Your mother has a gentle and virtuous temperament, and your father has worked hard since he came to power. How did you end up with such a temperament?"
…
On the other side, after leaving the imperial study room, Jinse couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Xie Xiuqi stood still and Jinse lay down, leaning her upper body on his shoulder and tilting her head to his ear.
"Xiao Qiqi, I never thought that you could be so good at acting."
Xie Xiuqi's whole body was tense, and the armor pressing on his shoulders was hard, making him itchy all over, and he felt a little strange in his heart.
He didn't understand the word acting, maybe it was referring to his previous behavior.
But the problem is...
He frowned: "Why? Who else?"
"Hahaha, there's more..." Jinse deliberately lengthened her tone, flicked his perked ears, and ran away with a smile, "I won't tell you."
A flash of darkness flashed in Xie Xiuqi's eyes, he came back to his senses, shook his head, smiled bitterly, and chased after her.
He didn't go far when he saw Jinse.
But there was more than one person in Jinse at this time. In addition to a group of palace maids and guards, there was also Princess Ronghua, as well as her and Xie Xiuming's mother-in-law, Concubine Yi.
Ronghua raised his head like a proud rooster and accused with a sharp voice:
"Nangong Jin, you are white now, and you will become the prince's concubine tomorrow. Why don't you bow down when you see the concubine?"
Concubine Yi is nearly forty, but she has taken good care of herself, and she is no less generous when she is with Ronghua.
At this moment, she was wearing a purple dress, sitting on the imperial concubine chair in a charming way, looking here carelessly, letting her glory show off.
Jinse chuckled softly: "My armor is stained with the blood of thousands of northern barbarians. Are you sure the noble concubine can bear this worship?"
Ronghua's face turned pale and he looked at Jinse with lingering fear.
Seeing Rong Hua's defeat, Concubine Yi twisted her waist and sat up, yawned, and spoke lazily.
"Ronghua, when you are in the palace, you must understand the rules in the palace. What will happen to those who don't understand the rules? Do you want me to teach you?"
"Yes!" Ronghua looked excited and looked at Jinse, "If you are not polite and disrespectful to your elders, please keep your mouth shut!"
"Come on, get on the board, I want to do it myself."
Jinse raised the corners of her lips. It had been a long time since she had seen such a cute little girl come to her door and slap her in the face.
Should she hit the left side or the right side?
At this moment, Xie Xiuqi appeared and stood in front of Jinse.
"Concubine Yi, Qi and Jin'er just came out from their father's place, and they have to go back to receive the reward later. It's getting late, so we have to hurry up."
Concubine Yi frowned lightly, her beautiful eyes sparkled, she looked Xie Xiuqi up and down, covered her mouth and giggled.
"You have been hiding for more than twenty years, and now it's just a woman who can make you willing to come forward."
"I don't know, when did you become an infatuated person?"
"That's all," Concubine Yi stretched, "I'm tired, let's go back to the palace."
"But, mother..." Concubine Yi glanced at Ronghua, who immediately lowered his head and left with Concubine Yi.
Watching the group of people leave, Jin Se was clearly bored and lacked interest, and glared at Xie Xiuqi.
"Why are you meddling in your own business?"
Xie Xiuqi shook his head: "There are many informants in the palace, and there are many people with mixed opinions. It is not appropriate to do evil things at the moment."
at present?
After understanding the meaning of Xie Xiuqi's words, Jinse was thoughtful.
Next, she followed Xie Xiuqi all the way to the sparsely populated Leng Palace.
Xie Xiuqi's mother-in-law lived there.
She didn't know much about the royal family. She only heard that the third prince's mother-in-law was brought to him by the barbarians after he was defeated in a war.
The first time he saw Concubine Shu, Jinse knew why Xie Xiuqi's appearance was so outstanding.
I saw that Concubine Shu had a high nose and deep eyes, and her skin was as white as cream. Even though her clothes were shabby and her eyes were slightly dull, she could still see her outstanding beauty back then.
As soon as she saw Xie Xiuqi, Concubine Shu looked behind him.
When she didn't see anyone, she ran out a few dozen meters away to look for him.
He was still mumbling inaudible words.
It wasn't until she confirmed that there was no one behind Xie Xiuqi that she came to her senses and waved her claws to scratch Xie Xiuqi's face.
"Where is the Holy One? Where is the Holy One? Why are you here alone?"
As if he was used to this kind of thing, Xie Xiuqi sat down and waited quietly for Concubine Shu's arrival.
At the critical moment, Jinse took action in time, grabbed Concubine Shu by the back of her neck, picked her up and threw her aside.
Xie Xiuqi saw it in his eyes and felt warm in his heart.
Then I heard Jinse ask: "Are you okay? She didn't hurt your face, right? I'll have to keep an eye on her in the future."
