Chapter Eighty-Three: Settlement (I)
Just now I only cared about Aimo's side, and I didn't even notice that someone was coming, and I looked in the direction of the voice, and I saw a young man wearing a jade crown and a purple robe, not far away, but it was a beautiful and beautiful appearance, and the charm was unique, giving people a sense of nobility and Qinghua.
Xie Zhishu recognized the person at a glance, immediately got up and stepped forward to greet him, and saluted: "The prince of the lower officials does not know that the prince is here, and if he misses the welcome, he hopes to forgive his sins." ”
In the entire capital, except for the current emperor, the biggest is the man in front of him. After listening to Xie Zhishu's words, everyone stood up and knelt on the ground: "See Prince Li." ”
Even the two mothers-in-law who grabbed Xie Anyi knelt down, and Xie Anyi was the only one who had not recovered from the despair and fear just now. She still stood straight in place, stupidly watching Xiao Xiaohan get closer and closer to her step by step, stopping not far from her.
Years later, when she was old, every time she recalled that moment, she would say, "At that time, I just felt that time stood still, and there was no one around me, just me and him." He descended from heaven like a god, guarding me and pulling me out of despair. ”
"Let's all be flat." Cheng Ji brought a Taishi chair from the side and placed it behind Xiao Xiaohan, and Xiao Xiaohan sat down.
The position of his chair was a little far away from the other men's chairs, which was a little abrupt, but it was just enough to pass through the thin gap between the screens and see Xie An clearly.
After everyone got up, Xiao Xiaohan gave another seat, and everyone found a place to sit down.
Xiao Xiaohan took the tea handed over by the maid, took a sip, and said, "Master Xie did his birthday, but he didn't give me the next post, if I hadn't heard someone mention it, I really missed this good show." ”
Master Xie hurriedly got up to make amends, but there were words of suffering in his heart. Who doesn't know that Prince Li is unwell and has been recuperating in the palace, and he doesn't go out except for occasional visits to the palace all year round. A few years ago, Prince Li's Mansion did not accept posts sent by major families, and in recent years, Master Xie's birthday banquet has not sent posts, who knows that he is now provoking the Xie family's problems.
Xie Zhishu thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he had to make a few more amends.
Xiao Xiaohan looked at Xie Anyi, who was still standing stupidly on the other side, the two mothers-in-law didn't dare to grab her arm anymore, but they were still standing beside her on the left and right, and Xie Anyi still couldn't go to Aimo's side.
"Why is this old man still popular when he has a birthday? That's unlucky! Xiao Xiaohan seemed to be very concerned about Xie Zhishu and said, "It seems that I came a little late, what's going on?" ”
Xie Zhishu secretly glared at Xie Zhili, his heart has been going on for so many years, and I still have to clean up the mess for you!
"Tell the prince, it was this maid who broke the rules, and the mother punished her." Before Xie Zhishu could reply, a voice that was so soft that it could almost drip water said.
The owner of that voice was none other than Xie Anmin. She had just seen Xiao Xiaohan's posture, and she saw everyone groveling to him, even Master Xie, who had always had the most status in the Xie family, was also flattering, and she couldn't help but have some ripples in her heart.
In comparison, the Prince Li in front of him is much better than the little prince of the Meng family. Although he is older, he is powerful, not to mention the appearance of Nasai Panan. If she can attract his attention and ask him to ask the emperor to replace Xie Anyi, won't she be able to become Prince Li's princess.
Thinking of this, Xie Anmin interjected. She deliberately said softly and gently, the Wang family had taught her before, men just like this kind of tender woman, so she was sure that Prince Li would notice her.
"Oh? Because I don't know the rules. I don't know who is talking about this? Xiao Xiaohan asked a little casually.
When Xie Anmin heard this, he really noticed her, and was about to speak back, but was stopped by Wang's eye knife. Just now she said that Aimo didn't understand the rules, so the Wang family punished her, but now she is so rude and takes the initiative to talk to a foreign man, isn't it a slap in the mouth? If she continued, a punishment would be inevitable.
"Back to the prince, it was the little girl who spoke just now." Xie Zhili on the side said, "She is young and ignorant, and she still looks forward to Wang Ye Haihan." ”
"Hmm." Xiao Xiaohan snorted from his nose, but ignored the gift of thanks, and drank tea again.
He didn't speak, naturally no one dared to speak, and the atmosphere suddenly became depressed. After a while, Xiao Xiaohan spoke again: "That maid is Aimo?" ”
Aimo had been beaten so that his face was swollen, but it was only a trauma, but his mind was still sober, and when he saw Xiao Xiaohan asking, he said in a vague voice: "Back to the prince, it is the slave." ”
"Look at this, this king almost won't recognize you."
Cheng Ji on the side listened to it, and only thought it was funny, his prince was always so serious when he told lies, he saw it most clearly, from this angle, he couldn't see Aimo's face at all.
And the Wang family on the other side couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when they heard Xiao Xiaohan say this, how could the prince still know the name of a little maid in Xie Mansion?
"I saw you before and still knew the rules very well, and I still praised you for your excellent rules in front of your young lady, why haven't you seen you in the past few months, but you don't understand the rules? Look at your bloody face, if you break your face, how will you serve your young lady in the future? Don't go down yet! The meaning of Xiao Xiaohan's words couldn't be more obvious, he wanted to protect Aimo.
But no one in the Xie family dared to say a word "no", Ai Yan hurriedly went up to help Aimo, and thanked Xiao Xiaohan, and the two retreated to the side. It turned out that Ai Yan and the other maids had already arrived, but when Peony was about to report, he didn't want Xiao Xiaohan to come. Everyone had to step aside, and it wasn't until they heard that Xiao Xiaohan asked Aimo to go down that Ai Yan dared to come out.
After dealing with Aimo's matter, Xiao Xiaohan looked at the drama kneeling beside him again, and asked, "This drama has been set up, why don't everyone watch the play?" Is this king missing something? ”
Xie Zhili looked at the book of Xie when he heard this, but the book of Xie was also embarrassed and didn't know how to read it. It's really hard to say this, everyone here is from a famous family in Beijing, could it be that Prince Li may be cuckolded by the future princess in front of everyone?
Of course, smart people know what to say and what not to say, but there are still stupid people in this world who think they are smart, such as Xie Anmin.
Just now, the Wang family didn't let Xie Anmin speak, Xie Anmin was a little reluctant, it could be thought that it was her mother's order, and it was not easy to disobey. But now in her opinion, it is an excellent opportunity to bring down Xie Anyi, how can there be a man in this world who knows that his wife is cheating but will not be angry?
Thinking of this, she didn't care about the anxious eyes of the Wang family on the side, and said loudly: "Lord Qiqi, is this drama ...... said that his sister and him have made a private agreement for life!
