Every day, Empress Xiao was tortured by hatred and self-blame until she was in tears. Her spirit was about to collapse.
He originally thought that if he put down his face, Xiao Baoxin would not reject him on the spot.
As long as she didn’t say no on the spot, there would be a chance to discuss it with the Xie family. After all, Empress Xiao knew very well how powerful Xiao Baoxin was in front of Xie Xian. She was afraid that she would melt if she held him in her mouth, and she was afraid that she would fall if she held him in her hands. She said one thing, but Xie Xian did not say another.
As long as they could get past Xiao Baoxin, the Xie Clan would not have any major problems.
That was why she went to Xiao Baoxin.
In the Xie family, Xiao Baoxin was the only person she could talk to and had a deep relationship with.
The little girls in the second and third families were useless and could not speak. Although Xie Wan was the eldest daughter, even if everyone maintained harmony above, the two of them did not get along and could not get along. Moreover, this kind of thing was not something that the daughter of the Xie family who was about to marry had the right to say. The one who could really play a decisive role was Xiao Baoxin.
Although Empress Xiao didn’t have any intention of blaming her, Xiao Baoxin’s innate skill wasn’t given for nothing. Even the monstrous resentment had split the majority of this resentment, so how could she not feel it.
However, Empress Xiao had just experienced the pain of losing her son, so it was normal for her to have such emotions.
Xiao Baoxin only sighed softly and did not argue with her. In her heart, she had already made up her mind. Xie Xian had already handed it over to her and was only waiting for Empress Xiao to speak.
“Niangniang, you are my best friend and also Grandmother’s niece. How can the Xie Clan and I ignore you?”
‘■If anyone dares to lay a hand on my child, I will definitely make them pay back tenfold or a hundredfold!”
Exactly!
Empress Xiao’s eyes were filled with tears. How could she sit idly by and watch her child die just like that? With just a single sentence of ‘very likely’ being framed by others, she would obediently accept the will of heaven. If she let others plot against her, would it be in vain?
The problem was that he had plotted against her and wouldn’t lose a piece of flesh. However, that person had plotted against her child. Wouldn’t he lose a piece of flesh and make the child disappear?!
Could she tolerate it?
He couldn’t bear it even if he died!
“Sister-in-law, I, Xie Ning, will always remember today’s kindness in my heart.
If you need me in the future, I won’t refuse!”
“I only have one question for you, Your Highness.
After Empress Xiao received Xiao Baoxin’s confirmation, her state of mind also calmed down: “Sister-in-law, feel free to speak.”
-Does the Empress want to teach Chu Jiuniang a lesson, or…Want to find out the real culprit who harmed the heir?”Xiao Baoxin gently pulled out Empress Xiao’s hand, which was so tight that it hurt her hand.
But what was even more unbearable was that he had to empathize with
Empress Xiao all the time.
She was probably the only one who knew how unstable Empress Xiao’s mental state was.
“Xuan Hui has long spoken to me. The Empress is our Xie family’s closest relative. If the Empress is hurt, our Xie family will definitely not stand idly by. As long as the Empress says the word, the Xie family will do everything. It’s just…” Halfway through his words, Xiao Baoxin’s voice suddenly dragged out. “We don’t know if Chu Jiuniang is the mastermind. The evidence floating on the surface is too obvious. Even if the relevant people are dead, all of them point to Chu Jiuniang. This is too coincidental. At the very least, it’s a question mark for me.”
Chu Jiuniang was just a concubine’s daughter who was not valued by the Chu family. She was raised in front of her stepmother and had the title of the stepmother’s daughter. Putting aside whether the Chu family would fully support Chu Jiuniang when she first entered the palace, Xiao Baoxin found it hard to believe that the mastermind behind the scenes who could attack Jiaofang Palace without anyone knowing was not even bothered to put on a show.
Were they so sure that they would succeed and that the Empress would be kept in the dark?
She did not believe it.
If the aristocratic families only had this bit of intelligence, wouldn’t they have long been played by the emperors of the past dynasties? As for the loss of imperial power and aristocratic families in the past one or two hundred years, playing a tug-of-war here?
It was also because Xiao Baoxin agreed so quickly that Empress Xiao did not have so much resistance in her heart.
If Xiao Baoxin had said this before he received the Xie family’s approval, Empress Xiao would definitely feel that this was a refusal, but…Xiao Baoxin’s voice was gentle and firm. His tone, which shared a common enemy with her, had an inexplicable bewitching feeling.
Empress Xiao couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
Xiao Baoxin silently withdrew her hand, allowing Empress Xiao’s thoughts to churn. She also took this opportunity to rest and calm her mind. The feeling of empathy was really not something that ordinary people could endure. It was simply too torturous.
Empress Xiao’s emotions were too intense, and her hatred was too strong. She did not wave the flag and shout along to kill the f * eking Chu Jiuniang. Xiao Baoxin even sang praises for his firm will. It was too rare.
She was the only one with a firm mind. Otherwise, she would be led astray at any moment.
After the time it took to make a cup of tea, Empress Xiao let out a long sigh and covered her face with her hands.
“I don’t know either. He had been muddleheaded these days and could not think normally at all. You, let me think about it.”
Awhile ago, the child was still around. Every day, she was afraid that she would not be able to keep the child. The person behind the scenes would not let it go and lived in fear. In the end, the child was still not saved. She was about to go crazy, especially when the Emperor raised her up high and gently lowered her down. He did not punish Chu Jiuniang severely.
Empress Xiao treated Emperor Yong Ping’s nonsense as if he had been framed and wouldn’t give up on the investigation.
She did not believe in the future!
Her child had no future. Who could guarantee what the future the Emperor was talking about? What if the person gave birth to the Emperor’s child before they found out who it was? What if there was still no ‘conclusive’ evidence?!
She still had to do it.
It was better to count on the red rain than the emperor. It would be easier to kill the culprit behind the scenes with a bolt of lightning!
The Empress did not keep Xiao Baoxin any longer. There was nothing much to begin with. With Xiao Baoxin’s approval, the Empress had a backbone and no longer had the energy to deal with the meeting. She let Xiao Baoxin return to the residence first and called her into the palace another day.
Xiao Baoxin only told the Empress to rest well.”There’s no hurry to plan for the future. If the Empress has the heart to investigate the real murderer, I’m afraid she will have to think even more carefully.”
Empress Xiao listened and also felt that these words were very reasonable. On the other hand, when Xiao Baoxin returned to the residence, he only waited to see Xie Xian and told him everything that had happened in the Jiaofang Palace.
“You did well.” Xie Xian finished his dinner and burped to praise her.
Xiao Baoxin thought,”If I don’t know, I’ll take it that she cooks well.” Even if you praise someone, you have to chew it slowly.
Xie Xian agreed with Xiao Baoxin very much. The husband and wife had the same opinion, but he was more straightforward.
“I don’t know if Chu Jiuniang is stupid, but to be able to use such a large amount of power in the harem and the previous dynasty to eliminate the weeds by the roots, she definitely wouldn’t be stupid enough to leave such obvious traces.”
Xie Xian shook his head. The corners of his mouth curled up into a mocking smile. No one knew who he was mocking.
“You don’t need to care about the future matters. Just wait for the Empress to summon you into the Palace again. I will give you the name list of the Xie family members in the Palace. You don’t have to come into contact with those people..”
