King Xiu, who was sitting on the seat, was wearing a black brocade robe, embroidered with exquisite patterns symbolizing his power and identity. His face was filled with innate confidence and domineering, as if everything was under his control. .

King Xiu's aura was so strong that Xia Wei didn't dare to look up at him.

But thinking that as long as she could study in the palace, Xia Wei forced herself to raise her head and face the king of cultivation.

"Your Majesty, I have something to tell you today."

King Xiu didn't make a sound, and didn't even raise his eyes.

Lu Yi stood on one side, glanced at Xia Wei, suppressed his words, and sat on the other side, "Speak quickly, Miss Xia San,"

Knowing that Lu Yi was King Xiu's confidant, she wasn't so arrogant as to give Lu Yi a look.

"My daughter knows that the wedding of King Xiu and my eldest sister is coming, and I sincerely wish King Xiu and my eldest sister happiness. However, if I don't tell King Xiu about something, my daughter will have trouble sleeping and eating in the future."

After Xia Wei finished speaking, she was waiting for King Xiu to look at her, but he didn't.

Xia Wei bit her lip. She was unwilling to give in. King Xiu didn't even look at her.

In the end, Lu Yi reminded, "Miss Xia San, please tell me quickly, the tea is already cold." If you don't say that the tea is cold, people will leave.

Xia Wei's face turned pale, "Everyone in the capital knows that the eldest sister used to be stupid and had a brain problem. In fact, she has another problem,"

Xia Wei paused.

"My eldest sister has infertility,"

These words caught King Xiu's attention, and his cold eyes shot towards Xia Wei, his narrow eyes full of anger and murderous intent.

Xia Wei shuddered and couldn't help shaking.

Lu Yi glanced at King Xiu, then looked at Xia Wei,

It could be seen from Xia Wei's eyes that she was not telling lies. Could it be that Xia Zixing really had infertility? If it is true, then she definitely cannot become Princess Xiu.

"Infertility? Where do you start talking about this?" The cold voice penetrated Xia Wei's heart and soul like a thorn.

"My daughter doesn't know either. She just asked a doctor to see her when she was a child. The doctor told her,"

Every three months for a girl from the Prime Minister's Mansion, a doctor would check her pulse and check her health. Although Xia Zixing was a fool, as the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was not difficult to expose her, not to mention Mrs. Liu had always pretended to be generous. My aunt's appearance is for everyone to see.

One time, Xia Wei heard from the government doctor that Miss Xia's body might make it difficult for her to get pregnant in the future. At that time, Mrs. Liu's expression was happy, as if she had known such a result all along.

Mrs. Liu also gave the doctor a bank note and asked the doctor not to tell anyone about the matter, let alone the prime minister.

Originally, his father should have known about this matter and even hired a better doctor to diagnose and treat Xia Zixing, but Mrs. Liu blocked the news and made Xia Zixing infertile.

"Miss Xia San, you came to this king today not just to talk about this, right?" King Xiu finally looked at Xia Wei with his dark eyes, but the disgust in his eyes was too obvious.

King Xiu has always been said to be not close to women. In the past, some people boldly gave him women, but they were eventually killed. Then it was spread that King Xiu was actually misogynistic.

But so what, Xiu Wang's appearance and identity are still favored by many women, especially Xia Wei, who has fallen in love with Xiu Wang at first sight since she was a child.

Xia Wei looked at King Xiu infatuatedly, and was so frightened by his eyes that she lowered her head.

"If I want to study in the royal palace, I can be the prince's concubine, as long as I can bear children for the prince,"

Lu Yi laughed out loud when he heard this, "Haha, Master, she wants to give birth to your child,"

After saying that, he laughed twice more,

"Go away," King Xiu shouted. Xia Wei thought she was talking about Lu Yi, but she saw that Lu Yi was standing there and didn't move.

My reaction was to tell her to get lost.

"Your Majesty, I have loved you for a long time. Your Majesty, I really admire you."

Xia Wei knelt down and begged King Xiu to marry him. She was unwilling to give in. Even if he knew that Xia Zixing would not have children, would he still be willing to marry her? Even if she was forced to marry by imperial decree, so what if she couldn't bear children for King Xiu, so she was not worthy of Princess Xiu.

Lu Yi sneered at this moment, "You, Prince Xinyi, are you going to marry me? Then how many women in this capital, Prince Xinyi Xiu, do they all want to study in the palace?"

It's simply wishful thinking.

Xia Wei was kicked out of Prince Xiu's Mansion. Before leaving, she looked viciously at the guard who threw her out of the door.

She will definitely study in the royal palace.

After Xia Wei came out of Prince Xiu's Mansion, she didn't go home. Instead, she wandered around the streets, thinking of ways to do it.

On the road, I met Wen Jing, who was married to Wen Cheng. Wen Jing was shopping with her maid. She saw Xia Wei from a distance, without even a maid by her side, and she was walking aimlessly on the street.

Wen Jing pulled Xia Wei into a teahouse and found a private room to sit down.

The two chatted for a long time before Xia Wei came out of the teahouse with a proud expression on her face.

On this day, Xia Zixing was called to Xia Rende's study.

"Father," Xia Zixing bowed and saluted, then sat aside and said,

The housekeeper served her tea and some of her favorite snacks.

Xia Rende put down his work, raised his eyes and said to Xia Zixing, "There are only five days left until the Emperor's sixtieth birthday, and our whole family will go there by then."

"The Supreme Emperor?"

Xia Zixing did not find much information about this old man from the memory of the original owner. He only knew that there was such a great emperor.

"Yes, now that you are engaged to King Xiu, you should go to celebrate your birthday in the name of your grandson-in-law. Your father will also go, and this time your two sisters will also go,"

"There is no one to take care of the house now. There was nothing going on in the house. You are getting married soon, so you are not suitable to take charge of the house, so I leave these matters to Uncle Chen."

Mrs. Liu used to be in charge, but now that Mrs. Liu is gone, there is no mistress in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xia Zixing raised her eyebrows, "How about father, will you marry another one?"

Xia Rende is not very old, only over 30 years old. If we put it in modern times, he would be a good young man. He can definitely marry another man. He can't be a widow at such an age. What about the needs of his parents?

Xia Rende didn't believe what Xia Zixing said, but her expression didn't look like she was speaking.

"As my father is old, I have no intention of marrying again."

Since Zheng's death, he has been obsessed with women. In addition to court affairs, he is usually interested in other things.

"Father, you are not old. If you have the opportunity in the future, if you meet a suitable girl, you will marry her and take her home. My daughter has no objection."

"Let's talk about this later. You go back and prepare now. You will enter the palace to celebrate your birthday in three days."

Xia Zixing returned to Xinglan Courtyard and called Qiuyue into the room.

"Qiuyue, do you know the Supreme Emperor?"

Qiuyue looked confused, "Miss, are you worried about congratulating the Emperor on his birthday?"

Xia Zixing is not worried, she is just asking to see what kind of gift is appropriate.

"If you want to know about the Supreme Emperor, wouldn't it be more appropriate to ask King Xiu?" Chunhua said at the side,

Yes, ask Rong Xiu, the Supreme Emperor is Rong Xiu's grandfather, he must know his preferences.

After saying this, Xia Zixing asked Chunhua Qiuyue to find food for her.

At night, Xia Zixing slipped out of the Prime Minister's Mansion and went straight to Prince Xiu's Mansion.
