From Shadowguard to Queen [Transmigration Book]

87

As dusk fell, Xiao Weixin rode a carriage all the way into the palace.

Xiao Weishen sat decadently on his dragon chair, staring dully at the graceful and enchanting dancing girl, he didn't even notice that the wine glass in his hand spilled all over the table, the whole person seemed to have lost his soul .

Xiao Weixin was led over by the eunuch, he adjusted his clothes at the door before entering, and saluted respectfully.

"You're here..." It took Xiao Weishen a long time to come back to his senses, he pointed to the seat next to him and said, "Sit down."

Xiao Weixin sat down as he said, with an uneasy expression on his face, but he didn't speak after sitting down, Xiao Weishen stared at the dancers under the stage for a long time without interest, he just threw his wine glass and kicked them all out .

"Why didn't the seventh brother talk when he came?" Xiao Weishen finally couldn't hold back, and his tone was not very good.

Xiao Weixin put down his wine glass slowly, then turned to look at Xiao Weishen, "Brother Huang is so decadent, what do you want me to say?"

Xiao Weishen was at a loss for words for a while, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly raised his hand to cover his eyes and sighed heavily: "I haven't closed my eyes and slept properly in the past few days."

Thirty thousand people on the frontier are devastated. If he could really close his eyes, his ancestors would crawl out of the ground to look for him in the middle of the night.

Xiao Weixin didn't answer his words, just lowered his head and continued to drink tea, with a look of preoccupation, Xiao Weishen sat for a while and found that he was also absent-minded, so he asked, "What's bothering Seventh Brother?"

After hearing his question, Xiao Weixin put down his teacup, stood up from his chair and knelt in the hall: "My brother knows that the emperor is upset about the prime minister's affairs, but I have to say something."

"Brother, please complete it."

Xiao Weishen was taken aback by his serious attitude, and hurriedly said: "Just tell me what you have to say, why bother, get up."

Even though he said so, Xiao Weixin refused to get up, and continued to kneel and said: "Brother Emperor, I beg you to withdraw my marriage contract with the Xia family."

Xiao Weishen was taken aback, "Engagement?" He remembered that there was such a thing, the queen mentioned this matter in front of him two days ago, saying that the engagement had been postponed for so long, and they should hurry up to do the wedding now, but Now that he was depressed by his uncle, how could he care about these things, so he didn't listen to what the queen said.

Now that he heard Xiao Weixin's words, he remembered this matter, but he didn't expect that he came here for the purpose of retiring the engagement.Xiao Weishen was a little confused: "But aren't you...are you in love with that daughter of the Xia family? Why did you suddenly talk about retiring the engagement?"

Xiao Weixin silently grasped the hem of his clothes, and then said sternly: "Brother Huang must have misunderstood, I have only met the Xia family a few times, and there is no relationship."

"What's more, in the current situation in the court, my younger brother doesn't want to be married to the Xia family. The prime minister covers the sky with one hand, and my younger brother relies on the blood of the Tian family, and I will never let him be my father-in-law."

"Neither he nor Xia's daughter are worthy."

"Even if the prime minister blames him, the younger brother will never compromise."

Xiao Weishen fell silent again, his heart was touched by Xiao Weixin's words, he was so overwhelmed by his uncle's actions these two days, he always felt like a sword was hanging over his head, can kill themselves.

He stared at Xiao Weixin who was kneeling under his highness for a long time, and then said hoarsely, "You get up first."

"Since you don't want to, I can't force it." Xiao Weishen was full of panic, "If you let go of the marriage contract, let it go, I... don't have the heart to care about it right now, and maybe uncle doesn't want to fulfill this marriage, these days I didn't see him say it either."

"If you have nothing to do, then step back first, I want to be alone and quiet."

Xiao Weixin looked extremely tired, and waved him to go out. Xiao Weixin stood up, but he didn't rush to leave. Instead, he said in a gentle voice: "Thank you, brother, for your kindness."

"Brother Huang, you must take care of the dragon body, and don't worry too much."

"After all, the imperial concubine has been pregnant for nearly five months, and there will be a happy event soon."

Speaking of this incident, Xiao Weishen seemed to be reminded, his eyes slowly gathered some light, as if he had found the direction of life all of a sudden, and his face gradually became brighter: "Your concubine... yes ..."

He suddenly stood up from the chair, "I almost forgot about the noble concubine! Two days ago, she sent someone to say that she was not feeling well, and I haven't visited her for a while."

"Yes, I will have the eldest son of the emperor soon, the first eldest son of the emperor..."

Maybe it's because there's been no good news for more than a month. When Xiao Weishen was depressed, he was reminded by Xiao Weixin that he was about to have a son. Suddenly, those troubles disappeared, and the prime minister, Guan Xirong, was no longer is the point.

It seems that this son can sweep away all troubles for him and will bring him supreme glory.

Seeing his beaming look again, Xiao Weixin smiled slightly and lowered his eyelids to hide the cold sarcasm in it.

For a poor creature like Xiao Weishen, I am afraid that only the so-called eldest son of the emperor can make him look good for a short time.

But soon, his last dream will be shattered.

Xiao Weixin exited the hall, and met the queen just a few steps away.The queen saw him, and also saw that there was something wrong with his expression as usual, and hesitated whether to come forward to speak, but Xiao Weixin didn't even look at him, and passed her by with a blank expression.

The queen turned her head to look, but could only see his indifferent back.

She subconsciously called out to him: "Seventh brother."

Xiao Weixin stopped in his tracks, turned around and saluted: "Sister-in-law."

Although she stopped him, the queen actually had nothing to say. After thinking for a while, she whispered, "You...are you here to withdraw the engagement?"

"Exactly." Xiao Weixin replied coldly, although he didn't know why this woman could guess his thoughts, but he really didn't have the patience to chat with her.

The queen's eyes were a little disappointed, "You really don't think about it anymore? Yinxiu is different from others, maybe you really need her."

"I don't need her." Xiao Weixin finally raised his head and looked directly at the upright and beautiful queen, but his eyes were a bit ruthless, "The person I need is gone. Do you want the queen to guess who is next?" hand?"

His expression was so terrifying that the empress couldn't help but take two steps back, and paused in place in a daze.

She is not a fool, how could she not hear the deep hatred in these words, even though she didn't know what happened, but she knew her cruel father.

"Ben Gong..." Before the queen could say a word of apology, Xiao Weixin turned around and strode away impatiently, as if even saying one more word to her was disgusting.

The queen stood there watching him leave, and when she raised her hand again, she realized that she was actually crying.

She and him, maybe in this life and the next life, there is no chance at all.

Back in the palace, Xiao Weixin heard Qi Han running to inform him, "Vice Yang is here."

"Yang Nanruo?" Xiao Weixin was not surprised by her arrival, "Take her to the study."

When Xiao Weixin sat down in the study, Yang Nanruo was indeed led into the study.

As soon as she entered the door, she knelt down, "My lord, if Nan Ruo has something to ask."

Xiao Weixin probably guessed something in his heart, and hurriedly got up to help her. After all, men and women are different, and he can only be separated by a little distance. It's not a person all the way, there are some things... It's not easy for subordinates to talk too much."

"It's just that this matter concerns Yinxiu, and this subordinate has no choice but to..."

Xiao Weixin said gently: "I know the purpose of your visit. It just so happens that I just came out of the palace and I have something to announce."

"The marriage contract between this king and the Xia family has been annulled."

Yang Nanruo was stunned for a moment, a little unbelievable: "Is it invalidated?"

"But..." Yang Nanruo looked worried, "I wanted to beg the prince to treat Yinxiu well in the future, but now that you have retired, Yinxiu's future marriage will be in the hands of her father. People, isn't she..."

Yang Nanruo was not happy because of this, she originally wanted to come here to beg King Ling to get married as soon as possible and let Yinxiu pass by, King Ling is still reliable, even if he doesn't love Yinxiu, at least he won't let her suffer, want to come to Yinxiu In the second half of his life, Xiu has someone to rely on.

As for the deep blood feud between the two of them, Yang Nanruo didn't know at all.

But now that the prince has retired, how will Yinxiu deal with herself in the future?

Seeing that Yang Nanruo was in trouble, Xiao Weixin took a step forward and whispered in Yang Nanruo's ear as if bewitching: "Vice General Yang, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"Miss Xia is such a good girl, why don't you fight for it yourself instead of letting other vulgar men spoil her at will?"

Yang Nanruo was shocked all over, and took a step back in a panic like an electric shock, "What are you talking about, my lord?"

Xiao Weixin stood up straight with a half-smile, "The general really doesn't understand?"

"At present, there are not many men of the right age to marry in Beijing. I can count them for you right now, and even fewer are worthy of the prime minister's mansion. And the remaining few sons of aristocratic families are either flirtatious or prodigal. Your chanting Xiu entered such a family, with her weak and indomitable temperament, I am afraid that there will be no bones left after being eaten?"

Yang Nanruo was a little panicked, she silently clenched her fists, and said in a deep voice, "They dare!"

"Why don't you dare?" Xiao Weixin sneered, "The general also came from a group of men. You should know the virtues of those men."

"Once your Yinxiu enters the door of those people, she will definitely be shelved and frightened every step of the way. You may never have the chance to see her again in your whole life."

"General, are you really willing? Just hand over the one you love to others like this?"

After all, Yang Nanruo came from the pedantic and rigid Yang family, and she received a well-regulated ideological education. Although she did love Yinxiu in her heart, she kept suppressing it and refused to reveal it. The sentences are true.

Who wants to generously send the person they like into the arms of others?

"But, but I... I'm a woman." Yang Nanruo lowered his head, his tone a little dejected, "How can this world accommodate us?"

"So what?" Xiao Weixin said indifferently, "The general is a warrior from the battlefield, does he still care about that?"

Yang Nanruo's eyes were a little dazed.

"I see that Xia Yinxiu is not careless towards you, why didn't the general ask her?"

Yang Nanruo pondered for a long time, "Even so, she is still held by her father, so what if I try to fight for her again? I can't just run away with her and throw everything away."

"Maybe this king can help you." Xiao Weixin returned to the chair and sat down, looking at her leisurely, "I have a deal, I don't know if Vice-General Yang is willing to cooperate."

"After the matter is completed, I can guarantee that you and Xia Yinxiu will have a good result."

……

Coming out of the study, Yang Nanruo swept away the hesitation when he came, his eyes were full of firmness, as if he had already made great plans, and his steps were firm and brave.

Xiao Weixin sat alone in the study, and he didn't recover after Yang Nanruo left.

Although they belong to a family, Yang Nanruo is more capable than Yang Qixian.

It's a pity, if Xiao Shu is here, he should appreciate her more.

Thinking of this, Xiao Weixin got up lonely and pushed open the window of the study, the pear tree not far away had already produced yellow fruits.

I seem to remember that Xiao Shu said before that he was thinking about the pear on the tree.

He has sent people to salvage in the lower reaches of the Yellow River. Although there is little hope, it is better than sitting dry.

You have to see people when you are alive, and you have to see corpses when you are dead.

You Shu wore a thick down jacket and closed the door. His sister and sister were already waiting at the gate of the courtyard. They made an appointment to buy New Year's goods together.

Suddenly I have a craving for pears.
