Chapter 337= The Last Move
Translator: 549690339
Ah.
Xiao Baoxin was enlightened.
It was fine if others did not know, but knowing that the birthday banquet was prepared by Xin ‘an King, and still presenting such a dancer who looked like Liu Guifei at the banquet, was he looking for trouble?
Who didn’t know that Emperor Yu Heng was biased towards King Xin an?
Even if he was afraid that someone else would be favored and replace Noble Consort Liu, alienating King Xin ‘an and Princess Xuancheng for a long time, and wanted to find a concubine that he had in his hands to send to the Emperor, there were ten thousand ways to do it quietly. At least it would not be so ostentatious to let everyone see the scene.
Before this, she had always felt that it was strange, but when Xie Xian said it, she understood.
If it was not Xin ‘an King, then it could only be Empress Wang.
Although the Crown Prince was suspicious, he was an idiot. His control over the inner court of the Imperial Palace was not enough to reach out to the
Emperor of Taiji Palace.
Empress Wang was different. At least after Emperor Yu Heng ascended the throne, the inner court was under Empress Wang’s control. She had accumulated her power over the years, and as long as she wanted to, she could still use some tricks to interfere.
“Then what does the Empress mean?” Xiao Baoxin didn’t understand. Could it be that they were playing a higher level of pet distribution? They deliberately disliked the emperor, spoiled the new people, and thought of the children of the old people…Then gradually drift apart?
The two of them simultaneously removed the Crown Prince from the list of suspects. He didn’t have that kind of brain.
“Who can read a woman’s mind?”Xie Xian said it in a relaxed manner, but he was not relaxed in his heart. In fact, he was rather deep in thought.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEmpress Wang finally made her move.
Even if Xie Xian was certain that the Crown Prince was a fool, he still did not dare to underestimate Empress Wang. To be able to roam freely in the palace for several years and coax Empress Dowager Pan, if it wasn’t for Noble Consort Liu’s death, she wouldn’t have been able to shake Empress Wang’s position. If he didn’t have intelligence, why would Emperor Yu Heng think so highly of Empress Wang?
Empress Wang’s strategy definitely had a deeper meaning. She definitely wouldn’t just annoy Xin ‘an King like this.
He believed that in time, Emperor Yu Heng would be able to see through this trick. Of course, the prerequisite was that Emperor Yu Heng was not bewitched by the beauty.
However, no matter how things turned out, Xin ‘an King would definitely take the blame. No one would suspect that he had lent a banquet to his father, who was the emperor, to present a beauty. This beauty also looked like his aunt. If word got out, it would not be too dirty.
The melodramatic scenes that the common people loved the most were inevitably carried forward and spread widely among the people.
As the two of them were talking, Qing Feng reported from outside the door,
The Xin ‘an King was here.
Xiao Baoxin raised his eyebrows.” You’ve become Xin ‘an King’s trusted advisor now.”She had already expected that the Xin An Prince would come to pay a visit, so she immediately told Xie Xian about what had happened in Taiji
Palace.
Xie Xian smiled and went up to kiss her before leaving. He didn’t notice Cai Wei, who was removing Xiao Baoxin’s makeup, was about to hit Xiao Baoxin’s head with her chin.
She was already mentally prepared for this.
However, did he have to treat everyone as if they were nothing? This was not a good habit. If he were to go up to the Great Madam or the Old Madam, it would be inappropriate!
The main thing was, did she have such a sense of existence?
Even if she was a fart, it still had a taste!
Cai Wei was a little mad.
“Are you still not used to it?” Xiao Baoxin laughed.
Cai Wei was speechless as she asked the heavens, she was not used to it being so funny, Madam seemed to have stolen two catties of sesame oil. There was really no need to show off how loving they were as husband and wife. She was just a maid who worked hard.
She was nothing to Master Lang, and there was no need to praise her so much
to Madam.
What was there to ask her? Just treat her as a natural, green, harmless, and odorless gas. It was most important for the husband and wife to be on the same side!

The Xin ‘an Prince had no regrets in his heart. Since he couldn’t see the Emperor, he ran to Xie Xian to ask for advice. Unfortunately, the only one who had popped up now was a dancer who looked like Imperial Consort Liu. There was nothing else. No matter how the two of them analyzed, they couldn’t find anything.
In the end, he could only lift it up high and land it gently.
There was nothing he could do. He couldn’t just barge into Taiji Palace and drag Emperor Yu Heng out and explain that the dancer’s incident had nothing to do with Xin ‘an King.
There were two possibilities, but the Emperor did not take them to heart and saw through Empress Wang’s tricks. The other possibility was that he didn’t see through her, but he had taken a fancy to the dancer.
Either way, when the Emperor had already indicated to the public that he was resting, he could not disturb him. It would make him seem impatient.
“Tomorrow, I will explain to my father.” Xin ‘an King sighed.
Xie Xian frowned. If Empress Wang dared to use this move, she might not be afraid of Xin ‘an Prince exposing her. There must be a backup plan.
Empress Wang was not a fool. She had been in hiding for so long, yet she had been able to destroy the Xin ‘an King with one move. She had even placed herself in front of the Emperor. What kind of suicidal style was this?
“Let’s see what happens next.”
When Xie Xian sent the Xin ‘an Prince off, the sky was already dark, and lanterns had already been hung outside the Xie residence.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe wind was blowing a little hard, causing the lanterns to whistle. The dark clouds in the sky were pressing down, and it looked like another heavy ram.
Xie Xian did not retain the King of Xin ‘an.
The two of them had already attracted a lot of criticism. If they stayed in the Xie family, it would only affect Xin ‘an Prince’s reputation. As time passed, Emperor Yu Heng would probably feel disgusted.
Prince Xin An came out of the Imperial Palace and headed straight for the Xie residence. He did not bring many guards with him, so Xie Xian sent the guards of the Xie family to escort him back to the residence.
Not long after sending off Xin ‘an King, it started to rain.
When Xie Xian returned to the house, Xiao Baoxin was already standing on the ground, stretching his legs, stretching his arms, stretching his legs, and twisting his waist. God knew that she had been suffocating these past few days, especially after sitting on the futon for so long today and taking the ox cart back. She was uncomfortable.
Xie Xian sat to the side and watched Xiao Baoxin wriggle around, looking very interested.
“I’m hungry.” Xiao Baoxin walked up to him.” Also, I ate Hu Bing this morning.
I didn’t vomit even though it was so greasy.”
Xie Xian’s eyes lit up when he heard that. He rushed outside and called Ming Yue in. He casually ordered more than ten dishes before he was done.
By the time the dishes were served, another two hours had passed. The rain was still falling, but it was a little lighter than before.
Xiao Baoxin didn’t even touch his chopsticks in the palace. He ate a few green plum blossoms and was already famished when he returned to the residence and was stretched by her. Xie Xian was happy to hear her say that she was hungry. He was even happier to see her eat than he was eating. One moment, she would give him food, and the next moment, she would feed him. He was very happy, but he did not care about eating a few mouthfuls.
Only then did he see Xiao Baoxin put down his chopsticks with a satisfied look on his face, and he heard Qing Feng come to report that someone had come from the palace.
Xie Xian’s eyebrows were about to twist into a knot.
“Did you say what it is?” He asked casually. Logically speaking, if he did not see anyone, even if there was an edict in the palace, he would not tell others.
Who knew that Qing Feng would reply,”The eunuch said that the Emperor invited the Minister into the palace.””
Xie Xian suddenly raised his head and looked at Qing Feng.
“What else did the eunuch say?”
“He only said that the Emperor had urgent matters to attend to, and asked Lang Lord to enter the palace immediately..””
