Chapter 399: Afraid of His Wife Like a Tiger

Translator: 549690339              &

Emperor Yong Ping had seen Wang Chong nod his head in the morning court session and knew that Xie Xian’s opening had been opened. This was the relief after settling a thorny problem.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

However, if Xie Xian insisted on not relenting, he would also be in a dilemma. Because of Princess Anji, he had hurt the hearts of the Xie Clan and the Xiao Clan. He felt that the losses outweighed the gains, so he was naturally unwilling.

However, what King Jiang Xia said was reasonable. If he really kicked Princess Anji out of the city, it would be more ruthless than letting her die in this chaotic world.

Xie Xian taking a step back was the best.

However, both Emperor Yong Ping and King Jiang Xia had neglected one person, their Imperial Censor, Xiao Yu.

This was their blind spot. They all thought that after appeasing Xie Xian, the Xiao family would naturally retreat. However, it was not until Censor Xiao once again questioned Princess Anji in the morning court session and the other censors under him also followed suit and submitted memorials that Prince Jiang Xia was alerted. He had left the Xie family too late last night, so he went straight back to the Prince’s mansion and had forgotten about the Xiao family. He was old and useless. King Jiang Xia gritted his teeth.

It was his negligence.

He had been flattered by Xie Xian’s flattery, but what about Xie Xian? Would he have left Imperial Censor Xiao in the lurch and deliberately not informed the Xiao Family? Or was this an attack after they had vented their qi?

Emperor Yong Ping and King Jiang Xia were obviously on the same page, and his face was a little ugly.

“Minister Xie, what do you mean?” he asked tentatively.

Xie Xian said righteously, “This matter will be handled by Zongzheng Temple. I believe that King Jiang Xia will handle it impartially.’”‘

Censor Xiao was still clamoring,”The prince is punished for breaking the law.”” Emperor Yongping: The false reasoning and hereses that the censor doctor heard also jumped out to fool people.

He was young and had read many history books. He had never seen a generation of princes who could be punished with the same punishment as commoners. Who are you trying to fool with the court?

Xing, why didn’t you call for a doctor?

However, he didn’t join the Imperial Censor. He didn’t want to side with Princess Anji. He was more than willing to teach Princess Anji a lesson within the Eldest Princess ‘bottom line.

For the sake of his own selfish desires, he had disregarded the reputation of Xuan City, let alone Xiao Baoxin. That person was a fierce one, and he also lacked hands, but he really did not want to put his hands under that black hand. If the dirty water was really placed on Xiao Baoxin’s head and Anji’s lover succeeded, would Xiao Baoxin still have a way out?

Rumors were terrible. Even if she knew that she was framed, her life would be over.

It could force people to death.

“This matter will be handed over to Zong Zhengqing.-Emperor Yong Ping said firmly,” You must handle this impartially. You must not be biased because of Princess An Ji’s identity.”

“Yes, I will.” The king of Jiangxia received the edict.

When Censor Xiao saw this situation, he knew that he shouldn’t be too radical. The Emperor didn’t say that he wouldn’t punish Princess Anji. It was fine as long as he could get the answer. He would wait and see in the future.

If he really raised it up high and lowered it down gently, he would offer the memorial ginseng again. Next time, he would even offer the Jiangxia King ginseng.

The Xiao family’s meaning was clear. He did not believe that the Emperor would favor a single, loyal, and respectable wife and ignore the fact that the Xiao family’s young and old generations were working hard for the court on the battlefield.

According to Princess Lu Anji’s situation, she was not sentenced to death. In the laws of Daliang, other than clearly stating that the imperial family’s conspiracy to rebel was a major crime of beheading, there was no overly severe criminal law.

Most of them were fined silver and demoted. If it was more serious, they would be removed from the royal jade archive.

The Eldest Princess naturally would not agree to dismiss Princess Anji as a commoner. That would be an extreme insult to the Song bloodline. Everyone knew that offending the Xie and Xiao Families was the reason why the Emperor pursued them relentlessly. Hurting the city gate guards was just an excuse on the table.

The only person that Jiang Xia King could bring out to make a fuss was the city gate man.

In one night, they came up with a condition that both sides could accept. Princess Anji was demoted to Yiyang County Lord and had a hundred households. He also stated that the new emperor did not violate the previous emperor’s order and disturb Princess Anji’s cultivation. It was because of the war that he allowed Princess Anji to stay in the city for the sake of her life. When the world was peaceful, Princess Anji would still go where she came from.

As for where to place Princess Anji, didn’t the late Emperor build a temple for Noble Consort Liu? He would just let her stay there.

It was the best of both worlds.

Not to mention others, Emperor Yong Ping was extremely satisfied with Prince Jiang Xia’s arrangement.

When Liu Guifei was alive, Princess Anji had used her as a tool. This time, she would accompany her mother. Every morning and evening, she would burn three incense sticks. It would not be in vain for them to make friends.

The Eldest Princess only needed to protect Princess Anji’s reputation as the princess of the royal family.

Although it was a slap to Angie’s face, she had heard of Angie’s actions outside the city. Thinking about it, it was also Angie’s own doing. Letting her live was the last thing she could do. She only sighed and did not say anything.

Princess Angie was naturally not convinced.

The emperor was her nephew, but not only was she not promoted, she was demoted instead.

She used to have 1,000 households in the food city, but now 90% of them had been cut. She even had the heart to bite Emperor Yong Ping to death.

She’s more ruthless than her brother.

She was able to live well in the nunnery mainly because although Emperor Yuheng had sent her to cultivate, her food city was still the same and she did not mistreat him. Money could make the world go round, so she naturally lived a comfortable life.

There was money and a man, but she refused to return to Jiankang.

However, since the war started, she had contracted a disease. If she did not return, she would die outside.

.. Alright, it’s good that you can keep your life.

Princess Anji gritted her teeth. As long as there was life, there was hope! Burning incense to Noble Consort Liu? Fine, so be it. Anyway, she was alive, and the one who died was Noble Consort Liu!

Princess Anji resigned herself to her fate. She could not win against the powerful. However, she knew that she was the one who paid for the medical expenses and appeasement fees of the city gate guards. One deduction was two years of food. She could not take it anymore. Tears fell. Her heart ached, and her heart ached even more!

Imperial Censor Xiao was satisfied with Princess Anji’s treatment. Emperor

Yong Ping did the most fair thing he could do in his position.

As usual, he sang praises of the emperor and his subjects, and they were very satisfied.

The eldest princess of Kuaiji did not keep Princess Anji for long. On the day the imperial edict came down, Princess Anji-no, the county lord of Yiyang-was sent to the temple that Emperor Yuheng had built for Imperial Concubine Liu in a folding calf cart.

As for Er Niu, who had injured him, he had already been thrown into the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

At least in the eyes of outsiders, the Xie and Xiao families had won a complete Victory against the princess of the imperial family, and they had gained face.

Everyone knew Xie Xian’s intention to protect Xiao Baoxin.

However, perhaps due to Xiao Baoxin’s previous valiant image, most of them actually recognized Xie Xian as being afraid of his wife like a tiger, rather than loving and protecting her deeply.

More people thought that he stood up because he didn’t dare not stand up for himself, afraid of being beaten up at home.

After all, Xiao Baoxin’s kung fu was obvious to all, and he had the support of the masses..
