Chapter 114: Can't Climb High

By the time Xie Xian came to Xie's mansion, it was already the evening of the next day.

The prince bought a bird and named it Xiao Liuzi by an inner servant to Emperor Yuheng, who was furious and reprimanded the prince in the palace for two hours. Because Xiaoliu is the ranking of King Xin'an, the most favored prince on the tip of Emperor Yuheng's heart.

Xie Xian was pulled by the angry Emperor Yuheng, first scolding the prince for being cruel and stubborn, and then counting the disappointment in the prince over the years.

Xie Xian understood the meaning of Emperor Yuheng's words very well, and the emperor wanted to be easy to store.

However, Emperor Yuheng is still very clear about the bloody nature of their old Song family, they have the essence of cannibalism in their bodies, and every emperor has the blood of his hands and feet on his hands.

Emperor Yuheng thought that the crown prince would ascend the throne and might leave the life of King Xin'an, but if King Xin'an was on the throne, he would not leave the life of the prince.

Emperor Yuheng may have been tempting, but Xie Xian didn't pay attention to it.

Now is not the time to talk about this, Emperor Yuheng himself still has a stage of haunting and thinking. He didn't spare time to do that offending man.

According to him, the crown prince is still the king of Xin'an, and it is really impossible to say who is better than whom.

I listened to Emperor Yuheng repeatedly, and when he was talking about the prince's bad intentions, Liu Guifei had a quarrel with Queen Wang in the harem, and was punished by the queen to kneel, crying and crying and looking for the emperor to sue him, and Xie Xian was able to get out.

The housekeeper of the Xiao Mansion was invited to visit in person the day before, but Xie Xian saw that it was too late, so he replied and passed the next day. It's just that he didn't expect the emperor to drag it out like this, and it dragged on until the evening.

However, fortunately, it was not dark yet, and under the dripping autumn rain, Xie Xian arrived at Xie's Mansion in an ox cart.

When Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Xian, she was indeed handsome, but now the weather was already wearing a heavy cloak, and her face was slightly pale.

The person is still the same person, but the mood is different. There are mixed tastes, if this is a good body, when her son-in-law dreams, she will wake up with a smile.

Xie Xian drank the hot tea, and his body finally warmed up.

"Actually, I should have come to see my aunt a few days ago." He got straight to the point, "My aunt called Xian over yesterday, presumably because she heard some rumors recently. ”

Mrs. Xie sent a housekeeper to invite him over, and he knew that it must be Qingxi Pavilion, and the matter finally reached Mrs. Xie's ears.

Although he called his aunt and nephew, he didn't have close contacts, and it was impossible to say that Xiao Baoshu had something to ask for advice on academics. They are not familiar with each other, and they all know that Xiao Baoshu doesn't study at all, because asking for advice on academic matters is just an excuse for people not to speak.

However, in his opinion, they are now riddled with scandals, and I am afraid that no matter how high-sounding excuses they are, they will inevitably be said.

It's just that the elders invite him, and he can't refuse.

He must take a clear stance on this matter.

...... "Mrs. Xie was smacked for a long time, and the virtuous nephew couldn't be called." I invited you over this time, just to ask Qingxi Pavilion of the Qiqiao Festival, what is the matter with you and Baoxin? ”

Xie Xian put down the teacup and sat down.

"It was my mistake. At that time, it was already dark when I returned home, and I saw that the eldest lady only brought a few nursing homes and maid rings, and I was worried about the safety of the eldest lady, so I followed. ”

The eldest lady didn't know, so she stopped me...... I was worried that being seen would drag down the reputation of the eldest lady, so I took the eldest lady to the pavilion next to the Qingxi Bridge to explain in person, but because of the unstable feet, I almost fell, and the eldest lady subconsciously helped me, so I was seen by the people who cruised the river, and I didn't know the inside story, so I spread it. ”

"Actually, it's all my fault for the reputation of the eldest lady," he explained calmly and slowly, his voice warm, making people unconsciously feel much calmer.

"The one who spread the rumors is Xi Jia Jiulang, and there was a discord between me and him before, so I distorted the facts and arranged criticism."

"I have publicly clarified many times, but despite this, I still cause damage to the reputation of the eldest lady, and I feel very sorry."

Saying that, Xie Xian got up and lifted his robe, and knelt straight on the ground: "It's obvious that you've done something wrong, please ask your aunt to forgive your sins, it's all obvious, please don't ...... Embarrassed lady. ”

Mrs. Xie had mixed tastes and couldn't tell whether she should be happy or angry.

The girl swears that she just likes someone else, but this statement of the girl makes it clear that she and the girl don't mean the same thing, and people don't have the slightest intention of asking for marriage.

"You mean, you have nothing to do with the eldest lady?"

Xie Xian lowered his eyes and shook his head slightly.

"Auntie, the eldest lady shows off her wisdom, and the criticism she is receiving now is just a momentary misunderstanding, and one day the truth will be revealed, and she will be treated with sincerity. And obviously, how dare such a body drag down others? ”

"The ancestors tested, and the ancestors all died young, so it seems that there is no expectation of themselves...... is more considerate, but he is filial piety in front of his grandmother and mother, and has no intention of marrying a wife and having children...... Obviously, I don't want to drag people down. ”

Mrs. Xie's heart is sour and cold, how can these words sound so distressing when they come out of Xie Xian's mouth?

is obviously the pride of the sky, but unfortunately the body is not strong.

"You can't say that, whose fate is predestined by heaven and not by yourself. Should you start a family or have to start a family, how do you know that if you are like this, Lingtang will not feel sorry for you? There are three unfilial pieties, no queen is the greatest, you can't take this child for granted, how do you know that your mother doesn't want to hold her grandson? ”

After saying that, Mrs. Xie felt that something was wrong, how did she feel that she was going off the rails while talking?

Obviously, she asked someone to come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, but she inexplicably recommended herself to stand in the enemy camp, as if their Xiao family was in a hurry to beg someone to marry their daughter.

"I didn't mean that you must marry us Baoxin," Mrs. Xie was so excited that she even called out her daughter's name. "Don't get me wrong, I'm ...... I am also a mother, and I know the heart of a mother. ”

"You can get up quickly, it's cold on the ground, don't get cold into your body, your body is not good."

Xie Xian's eyes darkened, and he slowly got up.

"I didn't mean anything else when I called you, I just asked." Mrs. Xie said, she couldn't tell whether she was relieved or brought up her heart again. "You don't know, reputation is so important to a woman, my aunt was cheated by the Yuan family, if it weren't for them, my aunt wouldn't be where she is today!"

"I heard that General Yang has asked the eldest lady to marry, General Yang is young and promising, broad-minded, and not like a mediocre person." Xie Xian comforted him.

Who knew that it was okay not to mention Yang Shao, but when he was mentioned, Mrs. Xie couldn't hide her disdain, and she went straight to the sky. But because of the reputation of the Xiao Mansion, it was not good to publicize the ugliness of the family, so he just snorted coldly:

"Don't talk about him, I can't afford to climb the Xiao Mansion."
