Chapter 398: Licker

“The reason why the king came here is because he values the Xie family.”

Xie Xian smiled like a spring breeze.

With a smile, King Jiang Xia sighed.

This Xie Xian no longer had the sickly appearance he had a year ago. Looking at his small appearance, Emperor Yong Ping and Xiao Baoxin’s meals in the palace had made his teeth white and lips red. His face was flushed red. He was at the prime of his youth and had a good appearance like a flower.

“Xuan Hui is a smart person. I won’t beat around the bush with you to sell favors. This time, I came to see you mainly because of the emperor’s intentions.”

He was honest.

“Obviously.”

Xie Xian said,”Since Your Majesty is open and honest, I won’t hide anything.” Originally, regardless of whether it was the Xie family or the Xiao family, they both hoped that the emperor could restrain Princess Anji and not kill her.”He had to say this to the end.

“However, Princess Anji’s matter is extremely dangerous and has far-reaching effects. If we don’t punish her severely, it will be detrimental to the royal family’s reputation.”

“.. It also chilled the hearts of the people and the officials.”

” The guards at the city gates are protecting the safety of Jiankang, but Princess Anji is unscrupulous and has disregarded the laws of the country to barge in…” Xie Xian first finished his good words and then stated the pros and cons.

“Your Majesty, think about it from another angle. If it wasn’t for Princess Anji, a member of the royal family, if it was Er ‘er alone, this would be a great crime of beheading.”

King Jiang Xia had no choice but to nod. These words hit the nail on the head.

To break into the city gates and injure the city guards, only Princess Anji was so ridiculous. If it was any other royal family or prince, they would not be able to do well.

“The emperor is also in trouble. After all, the eldest princess is already old…”

Xie Xian had never thought of killing Princess Anji. It was too easy to want a person to die.

However, because of Princess Anji, the Xie and Xiao families had the reputation of forcing the royal princess to death.

“I just want the king to deal with it.”

King Jiang Xia raised his mutton soup and wanted to drink with him. He was too good.

This move was very high. First, he placed his position in front of the Emperor. He was very unyielding and wanted to stand up for his wife. Then, when the royal family was embarrassed, he would give them a way out.

He was the one who built the stage and handed over the ladder. The emperor had to remember his kindness.

Since the Xie family had taken a step back, the royal family would not be able to deal with Princess Anji lightly.

However, although Prince Jiang Xia could see through the inner workings, he also appreciated Xie Xian’s kindness. If he really put it on the table, at least the royal family would lose face. After all, Princess Anji was in the wrong first.

“Of course. It must be Angie’s fault. The Eldest Princess did not want to shirk responsibility, but she was also a descendant of the Song family. She did not want to see Anji being forced into exile during the war. She still had to bear the responsibility.”

Xie Xian,”Eldest Princess does not want to shirk responsibility, but how is this different from shirking responsibility?”

However, everyone knew that he did not want to expose this layer of window paper.

” Although my Furen has suffered from her master, she has always been kind-hearted and pure. Even if she was wronged, she never thought of chasing Princess Anji out of Jiankang…”

“On behalf of my wife, I solemnly declare.”

King Jiang Xia: We are definitely not talking about the same person.

Who in Jiankang City didn’t know that Xiao Baoxin was a person with a bad hand? He even dared to cause a ruckus in the Eldest Princess’s manor back then and stirred up the entire scandal with his own strength. He was the person who punched Granny Anji and kicked the male lead of the scandal?

He dared to challenge the young master of an aristocratic family with his fists.

She even felt wronged…

He didn’t even know how Sikong Xiao raised such a domineering girl. He probably didn’t know what ‘grievance’ was, right?

King Jiang Xia had been drinking mutton soup, but he could not help but spit out the words when he exchanged it for a bowl of water wine.

He was not complaining about the injustice for Princess Anji, but purely because he couldn’t bear to listen to Xie Xian putting gold on Xiao Baoxin’s face here. He was used to acting, and even those who flattered him couldn’t do this.

He had no choice but to live.

What was Xie Xiantu doing? Why was he still so obsequious in front of him…

What was even more depressing was that the target of flattery was not the Emperor of the Song family, but his own wife.

Prince Jiang Xia drank the mutton soup in the Xie family’s house until he was drunk.

However, there was one thing that could be ruled out. The scandal between Xie Xian and Emperor Yong Ping, he could prove that it was purely a matter without a shadow. To be able to make Xie Xian, who was second only to one person and above tens of thousands of people, say such words, it would be unjustifiable if Xie Xian had something fishy going on with others.

What could he say? Promise him that you won’t be a bootlicker anymore! There was no good ending for bootlickers!

Jiang Xia Wang Shengsheng had Xie Xian leave early in disgust. Otherwise, he would have been able to drink two more bowls of this delicious mutton soup. However, after hearing Xie Xian’s words, Prince Jiang Xia couldn’t drink anymore. He felt a little disgusted and was afraid that he would vomit halfway through.

Before he left, he couldn’t help but express his heartfelt gratification for Xie Xian’s ‘profound righteousness’-on behalf of the Emperor.

No matter how disgusted he was, as long as Princess Anji’s matter was resolved satisfactorily, the matter of the temporary defection under the Wang family’s means would be over. Emperor Yong Ping’s words revealed this meaning.

King Jiang Xia was free and went back to his own residence.

He could only wait until the next day after the court session to discuss with the Emperor how to deal with the matter.

Prince Jiang Xia was waiting for the Emperor to reply. Xie Xian had turned around and told Xiao Baoxin everything. He had explained everything clearly without hiding anything.

“In this situation, we can’t force Princess Anji out of the city at all. It’s not worth it to sacrifice the reputation of the Xiao and Xie families for her.””Don’t worry, I’ll definitely vent this anger for you.””

“I believe you.” Xiao Baoxin smiled.”

Why don’t we just get Princess Anji out of the city? Xie Xian was in a precarious position and could not grasp it. His wife trusted him too much, making him feel even more ashamed of her.

Xiao Baoxin understood.

“In my opinion, of course I hate Princess Anji, but after all, the child in her stomach is fine. She doesn’t deserve to die. In the current situation, as long as she was not left in the city, it was actually more serious than killing her.”

It was better to be a dog in a golden age than a man in a chaotic world.

She understood this principle. She did not have that much hostility towards Princess Anji, wanting to make her life a living hell.

To put it bluntly, the hatred between the two of them had not reached that point.

“Let’s see how the Emperor will ‘handle this impartially.’”she said.

Xie Xian raised his eyebrows. If not for the Eldest Princess stopping him, Emperor Yong Ping’s ‘impartial treatment’ would probably be even heavier than the punishment Xiao Baoxin wanted. After all, when Princess Anji used the name of Princess Xuancheng to trick Xiao Baoxin, she was not the only one who was offended.

The new emperor siblings remembered it in their hearts.

The reason why he jumped out was mainly to seek justice for his wife and make his attitude clear so that everyone could see clearly. As long as anyone dared to bully his wife, even if it was a princess, he, Xie Xian, would not be afraid and would also stand up.

Take Princess Anji as an example. If you think you have more power and status than Princess Anji and have the capital to find trouble with her wife, it won’t be too late to do it.

If the Eldest Princess had not jumped out to stir up trouble, Emperor Yong Ping should have thanked him in his heart.

Emperor Yong Ping’s desire to subdue Princess Anji was no less than his.

It was all in Xie Xian’s heart..
