Chapter 721: Can’t Take It
Translator: 549690339 1
Xiao Baoxin’s little tricks and arrangements were not hidden from Xie Wan at all. He set them up in front of Xie Wan.
Xie Wan drank her tea leisurely and was not surprised.
Was there anything wrong with being cautious?
Moreover, from her point of view, Jiang Qian and Xie Ning were not good people. They had trained their third uncle, who was not born in a four-year-old age, into a kind father in the few months they had returned to Jiankang. They had caused trouble for them time and time again. They were quite capable.
If he couldn’t see anything now and had any evil thoughts, he might as well extinguish them when they were still in the bud.
In the end it was Third Master Xie who stirred up trouble. He did not provoke that Cheng shi or have a mistress. How could there be such a mess in the family now?
Xiao Baoxin didn’t feel conflicted about the matter with Xie Ning. His old son had already said that he wasn’t a person who would stop. At least in his previous life, he was a successful official. His own scheming couldn’t be underestimated. Fortunately, things were different now. The Xie family had not fallen, and Xie Xian was still around. It was not his turn to stand up for an
outsider.
She didn’t believe that Xie Xian couldn’t suppress such a small person with his skills.
She turned around and mentioned Empress Xiao to Xie Wan. At the very least, she had to inform her family about how Empress Xiao used the Xie family to take revenge on her dissidents. There were some things that Xie Xian might not be able to say, so she had to act as a messenger in the back of the house.
Mother Xie hadn’t said anything yet, but it didn’t stop them from infiltrating from the outside.
It wasn’t that Mother Xie couldn’t take the blow, but the Xie family had survived all these years and was used to big events, so she wouldn’t take this matter of Empress Xiao to heart.
To put it bluntly, they had not seen each other since they were young, so their feelings could not be compared.
She was worried about Empress Xiao because of her bloodline, but the Xie family was her true direct bloodline. Xie Xian believed that Mother Xie was quite clear about this. However, he felt that there was no need to do so. He would find out sooner or later.
“.. I think she won’t stop.” Xie Wan was so angry that she did not even drink the tea. She almost dropped the teacup. “Her biological father is dead, and the child in her stomach is gone. To think that she could come up with such a vicious plan in such a short period of time, is her heart rotten?
“He actually used our family. Fortunately, Brother handled it properly. Otherwise, wouldn’t he have dragged the Xie family down with him?”
Xiao Baoxin expressed that his aunt was thinking too much. The reason why Empress Xiao dragged the Xie family into this was because she knew that Xie Xian would definitely handle it without revealing a single drop of water.
“in the future, no matter what Xiao Ning does, I’m afraid she will be labeled as a member of the Xie family.”Xiao Baoxin shook his head, very disappointed with Empress Xiao.
Originally, they weren’t that close, but Xie Xian’s words indicated that she should get closer to Xiao Ning.
At least when Xiao Ning first arrived in Jiankang City, she was very straightforward and generous. However, as time passed, the two of them actually lived in completely different circles and could not talk to each other at all. The only reason why it could last so long was probably because they could eat together. When she was pregnant, she had all kinds of cravings, and the imperial chef that the late emperor had rewarded Xiao Ning was really exquisite, making her unable to stop.
After that, Empress Xiao entered the palace as a link to the Xie family.
In the end, they parted ways.
if we are of different paths, we cannot plan together.
Although Xie Wan was angry, she did not lose her cool.”Brother, what do you mean? Was he going to let her do whatever she wanted?”
“Your brother didn’t say.” Xiao Baoxin shrugged.”Unless she touched him and listened to him.
However, she didn’t know if Xie Xian had grown up or if he had developed a defensive awareness. Many times, even if she was close to him, it was difficult for her to hear his thoughts.
Unless he wanted to or said some sweet words, he was unscrupulous in his heart. Whenever he made her blush, he would slap her. When would he stop? Otherwise, it would be a new round of flirting.
“Is there anything my brother doesn’t want to say to you?”Xie Wan expressed her disbelief.
Seeing how intimate the two of them were, she thought that they would come back to share the news with Xiao Baoxin when they saw a few ants moving. In reality, it was not just once. She could feel that as long as Xie Xian knew, Xiao Baoxin would definitely know, even if it was a very secret question.
Xiao Baoxin didn’t feel like he was being kept in the dark.” “He might thinkthat the time is not ripe, or that it’s too troublesome to talk about it.”
However, Xie Xian would definitely not miss out on the necessary actions. At least in her opinion, Xie Xian easily sharing the power of the Xie family in the palace with Xiao Ning was a very risky thing. From his point of view, it was impossible for him not to consider the possibility that Xiao Ning would go overboard or suffer a crushing defeat in the palace, which might implicate the
Xie family.
However, Xie Xian did not say anything at all.
She had no choice but to conspire against Xie Xian. She always felt that there was something dirty about him. Perhaps he had already prepared himself for Xiao Ning to turn dark, or perhaps he was prepared at all times…
Thinking of this, Xiao Baoxin hugged his stomach tightly. Was a pregnant woman thinking too much?
Thinking too badly of the child’s biological father?
Or perhaps he admired the intelligence and wisdom of Xie Xian too much. He always felt that everything should be within his control. If it was out of his control, then it was intentional. Anyway, there was nothing beyond his control…
“Do you have a feeling?”
Xiao Baoxin bit his lip and said to Xie Wan hesitantly,” Your brother will never make a mistake, will he never make a mistake?
Xie Wan covered her cheeks. No, it was so sour that her little white teeth fell.
He couldn’t take it.
“Alright there’s no need to say anymore. I see what you mean.”Xiao Baoxin still had some insight. He was clearly talking to Xie Wan from the bottom of his heart, but who knew that she would treat it as dog food and retort back.
The first time, he didn’t even say anything. He just used his expression to kill her.
The two of them chatted for a while before going to Freedom Courtyard together. Xiao Baoxin had originally wanted to explain this matter in person, but in the end, the sudden appearance of the three families had stolen all the limelight before she could open her mouth.
Now that the matter of the third branch had been resolved, it was time to make things clear with Madam Yuan.
Of course, Mrs. Yuan was not a problem at all. She was a rather cold person. Other than her son, she did not care about anyone else.
Moreover, only the mother-in-law and the great madam could enter Madam Yuan’s eyes.
When such a thing happened, it was still up to Madam Yuan and Mother Xie to talk about it. As juniors, it was not up to them to say whether it was deep or shallow.
Who knew that before Xiao Baoxin and Xie Wan could finish speaking, Madam Yuan already knew what was going on. Not only her, even Mother Xie had guessed it. However, no one knew what was going on.
Consort He Shu had a deep grudge against Empress Xiao and Consort Qi De. Consort Qi De’s mother was Madam Xie. She was putting on airs and waiting for an opportunity to teach Consort He Shu a lesson. In the end, before she could do anything, a murder happened. One corpse and two lives.
Who could it be?
Wasn’t that obvious?
