Even though Xie Wan did not make it clear, Xiao Baoxin could still sense her attttude. She was leaning towards Zhuge Shu or she wanted to marry him.
It could only be said that Zhuge Shu’s effort of grinding tofu in water and boiling frogs in warm water was not in vain.
Xie Xian was indifferent and even a little annoyed. However, Xie Wan was clearly sincere. She could see through Zhuge Shu’s intentions and could not bear to part with him.
However, even though she could see it, it was not her place to say anything about such a big marriage.
Fortunately, Xie Xian had returned to the residence early this day. He had returned before the sky had turned dark, but his expression was not very good. Xie Xian rarely showed his emotions on his face. The only people who could make him like this were probably Zhuge Fu and his family.
They asked, it was indeed a matter of fact, and it was more complicated than they had imagined.
An emissary from Rouran had come over. Today, he had followed Emperor Yong Ping to meet the new Rouran emissary. His head was about to explode. Emperor Yong Ping’s expression was even uglier than his.
When Anakui returned to Rouran last year, he did not have a good return. He risked his life to seize the throne.
However, it was unexpected that Anakui, who had done all sorts of ridiculous things in Daliang, had actually colluded with a few Rouran officials on the way. He also colluded with other tribes to put on airs and fight against the new Rouran King. After fighting for half a year, he had actually successfully ascended to the throne and become the new Rouran King.
The North Wu was divided into the East and West Wu. They were busy with the civil war and did not have time to attack Rouran, which gave Anakui a loophole. After that, Xie Xian received information that Anakui had actually allied with the East Wu and married a princess to the East Wu.
Naturally, these Rouran envoys could not tell him, and based on the time he traveled, he might not know everything.
Emperor Yong Ping was stunned at that moment. Whether Princess Rouran would marry or not was a question. Without a doubt, Zhuge Fu was a capable minister.
What does Minister Zhuge mean?” Xiao Baoxin was uncertain.
“If Minister Zhuge wants to be a gentleman, he must marry her, even if he knows that he will lose his future. “Xie Xian muttered. “This is called integrity in a woman, and integrity in a man. Even though Minister Zhuge was resourceful and had a lot of plans, he was also someone who valued integrity.” ” The ninth princess used her means to block him, but he didn’t catch it, so he was caught. That was because he was not good enough, but it was not a reason for him to abandon his name and integrity. It’s definitely going to happen.” Xie Xian said as he pinched his eyebrows. It could be said that Zhuge Fu’s actions had disrupted all of his plans.
He suddenly became passive.
“He’s definitely been sidelined by politics, and he knows it. However, he had to do this. It was difficult for him to back down.”
He was certain that the reason why the Ninth Princess of Rouran was like this was entirely due to her selfishness. It had nothing to do with Anakui’s strategy. Rouran was too far away from Daliang. Both sides understood that they could only make friends from afar and not touch on their fundamental interests.
Rouran and the Eastern and Western Wu, and the Eastern and Western Wu and Daliang, these were the natural enemies who fought for every inch of land.
Xiao Baoxin had been married to Xie Xian for nearly three years. She had been influenced by the scheming of the imperial court. In addition, after the incident with the Ninth Princess of Rouran, everyone was talking about Zhuge Fu’s future. In her heart, she had a rough idea that Zhuge Fu’s glory would probably end here.
“Is it Zhuge Shu?” She asked,” What do you think?”
Xie Xian sighed. He was a good person.
“Let’s go to Freedom Yard first.”
Xie Xian changed his clothes and went to the Repose Courtyard with Xiao Baoxin. At this time, the sky was getting dark. Madam Yuan sent someone to call Xie Wan over. The whole family sat together before Xie Xian spoke.
“An elder brother is like a father. Your father died early, and you became an official early. Regardless of feelings, reason, or vision, this matter is of great importance.”
“Tell me, what do you mean?”Madam Yuan’s expression was solemn. Although she was not happy to see the Zhuge family’s marriage, she did not express it in her words. It all depended on Xie Xian’s decision.
Xie Xian looked at Xie Wan, “What do you mean, Seventh Madame?” ” Xie Wan looked up in surprise. She did not expect her brother to ask her first. After a moment of silence, he said, “I I am willing to marry you.” ” Xiao Baoxin had already expected this, but Madam Yuan was rather surprised. “Seventh Madame, why do you think so?”As he spoke, he looked over at Xiao Baoxin.
Xiao Baoxin was baffled. His mother-in-law wouldn’t think that she was the one who instigated this, right?
It had nothing to do with her.
“Bao Xin, do you think so too?”
“I think since you asked for Seventh Madame’s opinion, you should respect her, right?”Otherwise, why would he ask?
Did he want her to nod her head and then slap her in the face to teach her a lesson?
When Madam Yuan realized that no one was supporting her, she was depressed.
“Seventh Madame, what do you think? Can you tell mother? If it’s just a moment of excitement, you can take a break first. If it doesn’t work, we’ll push back the wedding date and calm down. “Lady Yuan was more realistic.” Look at Lady Twelve. She didn’t listen to her parents and insisted on being a widow for Chu Silang. What happened to her?” Her in-laws did not have any thoughts of gratitude. As time passed, no one would take it to heart.”
Although Mrs. Yuan wanted to see her daughter’s opinion, she actually knew that Xie Wan had always been cold-hearted and let her be. She thought that she would not agree if she saw the reality. Who would have thought that she would agree?
Did she not understand her daughter well enough?
Or was it because Zhuge Shu’s face was invincible and his daughter looked cold
on the surface, but she had actually been moved long ago?
Of course, as her mother, she couldn’t say this, and she wasn’t in the position to say it. Back then, didn’t she and Shi Zhong Xie also look at looks?
Then, he looked at Xiao Baoxin…
Covering his face was a common problem in the family.
She thought that Xie Wan would retreat if she brought up Wang Shiliu’s tragic history, but looking at her daughter’s expression, it was as if she had not heard anything.
Are you deaf?
“Seventh Madame…” He looked at Xie Xian again: “Ah Lang, what do you think? Do you think we should listen to Seventh Madame?”
Xie Xian looked at Xie Wan, “Why don’t we listen to Seventh Madame’s thoughts first?””
Mrs. Yuan rolled her eyes.” I’ll listen to you and marry Xiao Baoxin. No matter what, your body can’t do anything. Back then, I couldn’t do anything. After marrying Xiao Baoxin, my body will be fine. I can only say that Xiao Baoxin is blessed. I can also say that my son has achieved his wish. I’ll be full of energy to live.” by
But how could Zhuge Shu compare to Xiao Baoxin? At least his daughter was neat, smart, and well-behaved. Forget it, just pretend she didn’t say anything.
At the very least, he was healthy and had a good mind. He had the looks and the means.
With the Xie family as her backer and her brother in the court, she would not have to worry about getting married even if she canceled the marriage.
What, son still wants the young Seventh Madame to make decisions for him for life and get what he wants? What did she know?
You’re different from her. You can’t say this in front of Xiao Baoxin.
This was the truth in Madam Yuan’s heart.
