Chapter 685: Not Her Style

Translator: 549690339

She kept calling her my wife. She was just short of arching her hands and offering them up as a memorial tablet.

Xiao Baoshu thought that he was as good as Xiao Baoxin, but he had to admit that his brother-in-law’s lies were too much.

It was true that Ning County Head had badmouthed Xiao Baoxin more than once behind her back, but saying that Xiao Baoxin was easy to talk to and bully, and that she had no one backing her up-this was too much.

Whenever Xiao Baoxin suffered a little loss and didn’t even get hurt, wasn’t Xie Xian the first to jump out and take revenge? Even his aunt’s family had been ruined by him. Of course, the Cai family must have been courting death. They had originally wanted to destroy the Xie family, but it had to be said that Xie Xian was really ruthless.

After hearing Xie Xian’s words, the atmosphere in the entire room changed.

Whether it was the Lu family or the Xi family, they would definitely stand on the side of the Xie family’s Xiao Baoxin, but their faces were really hard to describe. He couldn’t change sides and attack them. Whether it was his personal relationship or his family relationship, they wouldn’t allow it.

However, it still stung her ears.

In terms of reversing right and wrong, they didn’t even help the old lady cross the road. They were only convinced by Xie Xian!

Emperor Yong Ping smacked his lips. It was better not to provoke Xie Xian, who was furious for his wife. This matter had nothing to do with him. It was not worth it to have a rift between the monarch and his subjects.

Not only him, but everyone in Jiankang City knew that Xie Xian doted on his wife and feared her like a tiger.

He couldn’t tell that he was afraid of his wife like a tiger, but he was indeed reckless. For Xiao Baoxin, how many aristocratic families had he offended? How many people had he dealt with in the open and in the dark?

It was fine if you pointed at Xie Xian’s nose and scolded him, but who knows, he might just smile and be fine, treating you as a dog farting. However, if you scolded Xiao Baoxin, then it was no longer a dog farting. If it was really a dog, Xie Xian could even pull out a dog’s intestines and tie a knot before cutting it off.

Don’t you have a brain? Who could he scold?

The Shi Ning County Head was a distant relative. If it was the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng, Emperor Yong Ping would definitely protect her. Not to mention Xie Xian, no one could bully her.

Speaking of which, why would he need to protect her? This Xuancheng Eldest Princess did not know how to scold Xiao Baoxin. She clung to people every day. In Emperor Yong Ping’s eyes, she was a human-shaped killing machine. If anyone dared to say something bad about Xiao Baoxin, she would probably rush up first before the other party could react.

She didn’t know what she had eaten to grow up so angry.

This was not the way to curry favor with his sister-in-law. As far as he knew, Xuan Cheng had already become addicted to protecting Xiao Baoxin even before the marriage with the Xiao family was set. He was also a true person. He loved her for life and hated her for death.

“That’s right, from what I know, it’s not the first time Shi Ning has talked about Lady Xiao behind her back.”

People couldn’t help but say that the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng couldn’t help but think that Emperor Yong Ping had just thought of her when he charged into the battle again. What else could he say with such a righteous face…With Xie Xian’s fighting strength, he really didn’t need anyone else’s help. It was too much of a bully.

Of course, the eldest princess of Xuancheng did not think so. She felt that she had the obligation to be a witness at the time and tell the truth that she had seen.

“Why? Just because he didn’t take a fancy to your Yuan Balang back then, you’re targeting him in every possible way? Speaking of which, if it wasn’t for Lady Xiao looking down on him, how would it have anything to do with you?”The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng said one thing at a time, causing Xie Xian to frown. She was picking on people who didn’t like to hear her say that the allies were doing the things of the enemy.

Shi Ning County Master’s face alternated between green, white, and purple. Even Emperor Yong Ping was worried that he wouldn’ t be able to change back. It was quite terrifying.

“Xuancheng, what does it have to do with you? Don’t spout nonsense!”

It was true that Xiao Baoxin was the future sister-in-law of Xuan City, but Shi Ning was also a member of the royal family. She was her younger sister in terms of seniority. As for the way she spoke…Straight?

“It’s not anyone’s business, it’s reasonable! “The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng said confidently,” I was there at the time and heard Shi Ning talking about the Eldest Lady. She said it in front of so many people behind our backs. If we didn’t hear it this time and those who heard it spread it out again, would the Eldest Lady still want a good reputation? Shi Ning was too much of a scammer. Was it worth it to do this just for Yuan Ba? He didn’t even care about his dignity as a county head and a member of the royal family.”

Emperor Yong Ping covered his face. Lady Xiao…Since when did he have a good reputation? As the emperor of Daliang, how could he not know about it?

Was she hiding it from him?

“Your Royal Highness!” Although the Shi Ning County Lord did not dare to argue with the Eldest Princess of Xuan City in front of the Emperor, the other party’s words were too harsh. She could not even be a turtle anymore. He did not leave her any way out.

“Aren’t you going too far?”

“What did I say?”

“Sikong Xiao was the one who killed the enemy for the country. Us little ladies were all worried sick, but her daughter came out with a belly and flaunted everywhere. We only said one sentence, and you guys said that we were talking bad about her? I don’t admit to this bad talk. At most, it’s considered gossip!”

“Gossip?” Xiao Baoxin sneered.

Actually, she really didn’t want to beat a drowning dog. This wasn’t her style.

However, with so many people standing up for her and offending this person, she couldn’t hide behind and watch Shi Ning County Head make a fool of himself. It didn’t fit her character. She felt bad.

Therefore, even though they were currently at the upper hand, Xie Xian was ready to take action and stand up for her, and the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng had also thrown aside her sisterly affection. She was aggressive and had the attitude of using Emperor Yong Ping to suppress others. She still stood up.

“The county head is so kind, gentle, and pure. How could he have the heart to say behind your back that she’s the daughter of Sikong Xiao who killed enemies for the country and made you worry so much? Is this what you’re worried about?”

“My Abba can’t stand your worries, and I can’t stand your ‘idleness.’”

“My Abba fought for Daliang, bathed in blood, and won every battle. I have enough confidence in my father. He has the ability to protect Liang, including you, a noble daughter who lives a comfortable life in Jiankang!”

” You!?” Before Shi Ning County Master could retaliate, he heard the Eldest Princess of Xuan City start clapping.

“Well said!”

“Right, good!” Xiao Baoshu followed closely behind with tears in his eyes. He was not moved by Xiao Baoxin’swords, but he was really watching the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng stand on the Xiao family’s side with all her might… Really, it was great to have a family working together!

Together, they could break metal!

Xie Xian was speechless. What should he do? It was true that he was standing up for his wife, but he felt that he was bullying her.

The friendly fire was too fierce.

“Your Majesty!” Shi Ning County Master cried like a man in tears,””I, I, I- they’ve gone too far, I didn’t mean it that way, they twisted my meaning!”

Although she was crying so much that her nose was covered in tears, she still managed to pronounce what she needed to say. Her enunciation was clear and she did not miss a single sentence.
