Chapter 153 - 153: Unfinished Words
The Great Ancestor of Daliang had overthrown the previous dynasty and killed the young emperors of more than a dozen neighboring countries in one go before establishing Daliang.
Sikong Xiao had never had the chance to fight side by side with the Great Ancestor, but he had also lived a life of licking blood on the blade. He knew how cruel and tragic war was. Being able to endure all this was nothing. The fighting in the court was a battlefield without smoke. At that time, it was useless to show off one’s courage. Yang Shao could command the wind and rain on the battlefield and the court, which was something that no one could do.
In any case, he, Xiao Yun, couldn’t do it. Whether it was his brain or his mouth, he couldn’t keep up with those scholar-bureaucrats and state officials.
He only had the courage of an ordinary man. The main battlefield was still on the battlefield. If he were to really play politics, he would die.
Yang Shao’s image in Sikong Xiao’s eyes suddenly brightened.
Sikong Xiao suddenly realized something was wrong.””But you haven’t married Yang Shao yet…Why?”
This was the main point.
Xiao Baoxin smiled: Because Xiao Jingai was reborn, she wanted to replace me, so she took the initiative to throw herself into his arms and asked the emperor to give her a marriage. In short, she finally got what she wanted. Xiao Jingai and Yang Shao were engaged.”
Xiao Baoxin couldn’t bear to look at Sikong Xiao’s old face anymore. It was twitching like a dried potato. Only his sharp gaze made her heart tremble.
“That girL.He’s quite ruthless.”
“That rebirth…What exactly happened?” He didn’t understand.” It’s a reincarnation? Or is it a dream?”
“She probably lived her entire life, but somehow, she started all over again when she was young. Therefore, she has experienced the future that we haven’t experienced or that we don’t know.”
It was very straightforward. He understood.
“What’s wrong with this Second Lady?” Sikong Xiao vaguely remembered that Madam Xie had complained a lot in his ear. In short, she was a unscrupulous girl. Moreover, the Second household was on the side of the Second Lady, letting her and Yang Shao get engaged and change the Gengtian.
Xiao Baoxin sneered.
“She’s just pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. She pretends to be pitiful, but she’s actually vicious on the inside. In my previous life, she took the opportunity to hook up with Yang Shao and…” As he spoke, he felt disgusted. “To serve her husband together, it’s as if I’m bringing her child up to me. However, she and Yang Shao didn’t have a long time before someone else took over, so when she died, she should have been filled with resentment. When she came back, she wanted to take revenge and trample me under her feet while she became the mother of the country.”
It sounded simple, and it sounded like it would only take a few breaths, but it took Sikong Xiao a long time to digest it.
“Without our family, how many things do you think Yang Shao can accomplish?”Sikong Xiao asked.
It wasn’t that Xiao Baoxin hadn’t thought about this before.
“Yang Shao is a heroic figure. This is definitely true. Times create heroes. If he is not a good person, I’m afraid that our family will not be able to help him up. But… 1 can’t say for sure how many things he can accomplish. Maybe he’s the chosen one. No matter what the situation is, he’ll succeed.”
“You still believe in this?” Sikong Xiao laughed. His voice was so loud that the beams in the room shook.
“Did father make sister mad? Why is he smiling so terrifyingly?”
Xiao Baoshu and Madam Xie were leaning on the veranda and looking into the house from afar. They pricked up their ears and heard the terrifying laughter.
” No,” Madam Xie said softly, as if she was afraid of being heard. “When your father is angry, he will make a big fuss. When he is angry, he will make a fuss. When he is happy, he will laugh so straightforwardly. There was no laughing from anger or anger. If he was really angry, he would have beaten her up in the morning.”
“..”Xiao Baoshu was enlightened.

Xiao Baoxin also laughed. She already had the ability to hear people’s thoughts, so why couldn’t she be superstitious?
“I believe you.”
Sikong Xiao nodded and sighed.” I believe it too.””
“But, as 1 said, maybe-maybe it’s not him. God will decide everything, but people will decide everything. We can’t just believe what that girl says about the future and then muddle along day by day, waiting for death, right?”
Xiao Baoxin nodded. The father and daughter were thinking the same thing.
“Of course, at least I haven’t married Yang Shao yet, and Yang Shao hasn’t been taken away from Jiankang.”
“On the chessboard, one wrong move will lead to more mistakes. After Second Mother was reborn, everything changed because of her. What kind of change will this change bring to the future she knows…”
Sikong Xiao was sitting behind a few tables, half of his arm resting on the table. He was gritting his teeth and thinking about something.
“Kill… Kill or kill.
Xiao Baoxin only heard these two sentences clearly.
“Father, 1 heard something important from Second Mother.”
Again? Sikong Xiao wanted to raise his hand to ask for leave. The critical hits came too frequently. He hadn’t thought of how to deal with it yet. Why was his daughter like a toad whose neck was being strangled, spitting out mouthful after mouthful?
“Daughter, if we can finish it in one go, you can give your father a quick one.”
Xiao Baoxin laughed.” 1 was just too excited. I didn’t know where to tell Abba. Abba is the backbone of our Xiao family. With you around, we have nothing to fear.”
Sikong Xiao held it in for a long time before asking,”
“Did you know that the situation was about to change? That’s why you’ve been so good recently, turning the entire Jiankang City upside down…What do you mean by that?”
It couldn’t be that she wanted to become a female emperor by killing blood, right?
Thinking of this, Sikong Xiao shivered. How could he have such a treasonous thought? Who could be the emperor?
Xiao Baoxin never dreamed that his father would ask such a question.
“Father taught me before that 1 can’t endure being wronged. 1 just hit him back then.”
“.. That was what your father told you when you were five years old and tripped over your neighbor’s pillar.”Sikong Xiao said,”Don’t tell me you’ve remembered it for more than ten years and have come to Jiankang City to hold your head high?””
Xiao Baoxin did not comment.
“Father, I’m not a bully, but I can’t let others bully me without even apologizing. You taught me everything.”
Sikong Xiao didn’t say anything else. She was his daughter, his biological daughter.
“Forget it, we’ve already fought. You should tell Father what important information you have found.”
As soon as she said this, even Sikong Xiao could see that his daughter’s expression had turned serious. His heart was in his throat at that moment. Xiao Baoxin lowered his voice to the lowest possible level.
“In about three or four years, the emperor will pass away and the crown prince will ascend the throne. After that, it seems like he will kill all the meritorious officials…Father is also…”
Sikong Xiao didn’t need to say it out loud to understand that the day he chased Crown Prince Qing onto the stage was the day he would die..
