I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?
Chapter 152: Lord Xie’s Plan
After hearing the emperor's words, Prince Anyang and the eldest princess also frowned. Xie Yunxiao was even more angry, "Father went to the emperor because of my marriage?"
The emperor nodded and frowned, winking at Prince Anyang and the eldest princess.
Xie Yunxiao was obviously unhappy, and the emperor's reaction was also to ask them not to say anything to provoke him, so the eldest princess suppressed the words on her lips.
But Prince Anyang was a straightforward person and did not get the signal conveyed by the emperor's two blinks of the eyes at all. He slammed the table suddenly, scaring the eldest princess and the emperor.
He spoke loudly and sullenly, "Marquis Xie, humph, his own abilities have not improved, and his mind is full of his weak son. He has been defeated most of the times he went to war, and the Marquis's mansion is weakening.
The inner court has been in an uproar. For many years, the second son has been treated harshly. Now, why do they want to use Yun Xiao's marriage to consolidate the position of the Marquis' Mansion? "
The emperor covered his ears and advised, "Brother, please keep your voice down. People outside can hear you."
"I heard what happened. Which girl did he like? Your Majesty, please tell me. If he didn't have this intention, I will personally go to his house and kowtow to apologize to him."
The emperor opened his mouth and closed it again. He had nothing to say.
Xie Yunxiao didn't hear what was said at all, but he had mixed emotions: anger, worry, panic, etc. He himself couldn't explain it clearly.
Seeing that Xie Yunxiao was in a daze, Prince Anyang stood up, walked to him, and slapped him on the back, causing the distraught Xie Yunxiao to rush forward several steps.
The eldest princess also noticed that something was wrong with Xie Yunxiao, "What's wrong? Are you tired?"
The emperor replied, "It is very tiring, you should go back and have a rest."
Xie Yunxiao shook his head, "Your Majesty, I am not tired, I was distracted."
Prince Anyang pulled Xie Yunxiao over and said to him, "Don't worry, as long as you don't want to, your father can't force you. I will make the decision for you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor was still a little worried, "In fact, it's time for you to discuss marriage. If Marquis Xie likes someone, he won't arrange it if you don't like him.
But you are young, and your uncle is not in the capital, so you should pay attention to your marriage. If you have a girl you like, just tell me, or my brother and sister can help you with the advice."
Xie Yunxiao bowed and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will keep it in mind."
Seeing that he was in a bad mood, the emperor waved his hand and let him go.
After Xie Yunxiao left, the princess sighed, "This child has a miserable life. Marquis Xie has gone too far."
"Marquis Xie has taken a fancy to Grand Tutor Cheng's granddaughter." The emperor said in a sad tone.
Prince Anyang and the Princess were both stunned for two seconds, then snorted at the same time. Prince Anyang was so angry that he laughed, "Shame on you."
"Everyone knows that Grand Tutor Cheng's granddaughter is sickly. She has been fed with medicine since she was born. Not to mention her life span, her body is so fragile that it is hard for her to give birth.
But the status of the Grand Tutor's Mansion is already there, and it is too low. The Grand Tutor does not agree, but he also cannot let his precious granddaughter down.
Marquis Xie saw that the Grand Tutor's Mansion was powerful and influential, and that marrying the Grand Tutor's granddaughter would be beneficial to the Marquis' Mansion.
Naturally, if he brought such a sickly daughter-in-law home, she would not be able to compete with Xie Yunfeng's wife for the position of housekeeper.
If she can't give birth to a child, Xie Yunxiao will be completely childless, and everything in the Xie family will belong to the eldest son from now on.
The abacus beads bounced on my face." It's rare to see the princess scolding like this.
The Emperor and Prince Anyang quietly distanced themselves from the princess. Thinking back on the eldest princess's fame in the past, they still felt a lingering fear.
"Are there any other girls?" asked King Anyang.
The emperor thought about it and decided that there was no need to mention the remaining names one by one. He just said, "The others are too low-class and unworthy of being matched."
"That was intentional. They chose people with less prominent family backgrounds. The emperor took a fancy to Xie Yunxiao, so he naturally couldn't let him down, so he could only choose the granddaughter of Master Cheng.
That, that old man, I, I really..." Prince Anyang was walking around the tent angrily, as if he was looking for something, maybe he was going to fight with Lord Xie.
The emperor and the eldest princess ignored him and told him to look for it, but he wouldn't be able to go even if he found it.
He is going to cause trouble, and the princess will punish him when she returns.
Xie Yunxiao left the emperor's tent. At this time, except for the patrolling soldiers, there was basically no one walking around outside.
A distraught Xie Yunxiao walked outside Jiang Yuan's tent, stood in the shadow, and stared in a daze at the brightly lit tent.
After an unknown amount of time, Xue Yangling walked up to him and asked, "Aren't you going back to rest?"
Xie Yunxiao lowered his head.
"If you like the second sister, just take the initiative to say it."
Xie Yunxiao panicked and looked at Xue Yangling, "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't. How did you know?" Facing Xue Yangling's expression of "You can say whatever you want, I don't believe it", Xie Yunxiao behaved himself.
Glancing at him, Xue Yangling said disdainfully, "Everyone knows that, go ask Lu Chuan, ask Lao Zhou, who hasn't seen it.
As soon as Sister Jiang Er appeared, your eyes were glued to the girl. Was there anything else in your eyes? Everything in the world disappeared on the spot.
Besides, it's okay to like the second sister. The second sister Jiang is smart, kind, brave, and has such good skills. "Speaking of this, Xue Yangling took a step back and looked Xie Yunxiao up and down.
"You, just barely, are worthy of me."
Xie Yunxiao raised his hand to hit him, but Xue Yangling dodged with a smile.
"Okay, Zichang is familiar with us, and he will definitely agree. Second sister's marriage is up to her now, so you have to take the initiative to ask."
Xie Yunxiao looked towards the direction of the tent for a while, then lowered his head and took Xue Yangling's hand and disappeared into the night.
Xue Yangling didn't understand and kept asking questions along the way.
After returning to the tent, Xie Yunxiao said, "You are right. I am just barely worthy of her."
Xue Yangling panicked all of a sudden. As soon as her butt touched the stool, she bounced up again. She hurried to Xie Yunxiao and explained, "Hey, hey, hey, I was just joking. Why did you take it so seriously?"
Xie Yunxiao interrupted, "She is smart and brave, courageous and knowledgeable, but as for me, I don't know how many bad things I will face in the future in such a terrible mansion.
It's okay for me to suffer injustice alone, but I don't want her to suffer injustice."
"Why are you wronged?" Xue Yangling was a little anxious, "Your family does have a lot of problems. Marquis Xie favors his eldest son, so the title of Marquis will naturally belong to Xie Yunfeng in the future.
But you have fought your way out for yourself, and I don't care about the title of Marquis.
You have your own mansion, which was awarded by the emperor himself because of your military achievements. What the emperor meant was that he supported you to set up your own business.
Besides, is the second sister a person who has been wronged? I think that if she really enters the Marquis' Mansion, the whole family in the Marquis' Mansion will be subdued by her.
Your evil sister won't survive a winter in her hands."
Xie Yunxiao was amused by this. A winter? Jiang Yuan got angry and said, "A winter, I'm afraid a stick of incense is too much."
