Chapter 343 - 343: Life and Death
Xin ‘an King decided to kill the eunuch.
He was afraid that after a long time, the Crown Prince would send someone to kill him to silence him, so he changed into the clothes of a servant boy and drove the calf carriage all the way to the Xie residence.
What he thought was that if Xie Xian was also transferred into the Palace, without any help, he would just die. Otherwise, even if he escaped from Jiankang, he would be chased by the Crown Prince.
Indeed, he had made the right bet. Xie Xian was still around.
Not only Xie Xian, Sikong Xiao was also present. With Sikong Xiao, half of the success was achieved.
After hearing Xie Xian’s words, Yang Shao’s proof, and Xin ‘an King’s thoughts he was so angry that blood had already reached the top of his head. “I will ’ definitely make that vicious woman and the Crown Prince pay with blood!” “This is a major crime of regicide. If they don’t succeed, they will die.” Xie Xian said,”If you win, you will get the country and the world. Winning no matter which side it was, was a death sentence, so they would all give it their all.”
Xin ‘an King knelt down to Sikong Xiao with a thud.\'”‘Sikong, save me!”
” Sixth King, you can’t do this!”
Xie Xian helped the Xin ‘an Prince up.” The Sixth Prince is the candidate for the Crown Prince, but he did not take the right path. The officials in the court are well aware of this. Although those who have intentions will use this as an excuse to take the opportunity to cause trouble, Sikong Xiao, General Yang, and I are not people who fawn on power. Empress Wang killed the king and seized the throne. We loyal people will never acknowledge such a person as the king!”
Xin ‘an King nodded firmly.
Now, he could only nod his head.
“What should we do now?” If they charged into the palace, wouldn’t they be charged with the crime of forcing the palace to kill the emperor?
Although he had found Xie Xian, it was still uncertain what would happen in the future.
This was a life-or-death battle, and both sides must have gone all out.
“We have to strike first. Empress Wang sent someone to summon us into the palace, but we didn’t go. This can only mean that the news has been leaked. At this moment of life and death, Empress Wang will definitely not allow us to do anything. Even if she wanted to trick us into the palace quietly in the past, she has no choice but to change her strategy now. Once she reacted, she would definitely kill us at all costs!”
” There’S no time to lose.” SikongXiao stood up.” I’ll arrange for the guards in the city. Yang Shao, you will protect the six kings!””
“As long as I have a breath left, I will definitely protect the Sixth King!””
###
“What do you mean by protecting the Sixth King? What about the Sixth King?”Madam Xie was uneasy. If there wasn’t an earth-shattering change Xie Xian wouldn’t have brought their entire family over to the Xie residence If he didn’t do such a thing and bring all of his maternal family over to his in-laws ‘family, why would they have to live together?
Xiao Baoxin had a headache.
“Mother, you went to eavesdrop?”
When did Mother develop this bad habit? She actually came to the Xie family and eavesdropped. If she was caught red-handed, she would lose more face.
“I’m just here to see if your Abba is here. They won’t let me in… Daughter, tell Mother what happened. If you don’t tell the truth, Mother’s heart will feel like grass has grown and she can’t sit still.”
“The Emperor has passed away.”
After a long time, Madam Xie laughed dryly.” This joke can’t be opened.””
It was obvious that it was not a joke. Who would have the guts to curse the emperor to death?
“Why is he dead? If he’s dead, why are we hiding…”
Xiao Baoxin knew Mother’s methods. As long as you didn’t tell her clearly, she could torture you to death. “Empress Wang killed the Emperor, and now she wants to kill Xin ‘an King, Abba, and Xie Xian.”
Seeing Madam Xie’s pale face, Xiao Baoxin finally stopped talking.
Who could she tell? Her heart felt like it was filled with grass, but she couldn’t scheme and plot. She wasn’t like this when it came to fighting. She was pregnant and could only wait.
If Empress Wang won, she would not even let go of the child in her stomach. Xie Xian did not inform his family, nor did he secretly transport her away He had considered all aspects. The world was so big that it could not be the territory of the king. Where could she escape to?
He also knew her personality. At most, they would just live and die together.
It was just that the unbom child was pitiful. Xiao Baoxin touched his stomach The only person he felt sorry for was him.
But in the end, it was really her fault…
Madam Xiao and Xiao Miaorong were also staying in Rong An Hall. The courtyard seemed to be filled with people all of a sudden. Other than Mother Xie who went to bed early, no one dared to disturb her. The second and third households had received the news.
What, was this the Xiao Family invading the Xie Manor and occupying the magpie’s nest?”Madam Cai complained to Second Master Xie softly.
Madam Cai was small and did not understand the matters of the imperial court Second Master Xie was an official under the Crown Prince. He pondered about the struggle for the crown prince every day. How could he not understand the twists and turns in this?
One listen to the head, then the buzzing sound, the sky is about to collapse.
-Shut up.” Second Old Master Xie’s head hurt. It was really fortunate for a person who did not know anything. His heart was beating like a drum.
When they arrived at the third room, Madam Wang did not have anyone to gossip about, but she had servants to gossip about. She said to her confidant,”I’m afraid things are not going well.”
Although she didn’t know much about the court, she was still the daughter of the Wang family. She had been through a lot of history, so there must be something wrong.
Sure enough, in less than an hour, Xie Xian sent someone to the second and third household to report:
“The empress killed the emperor and the emperor passed away.”
Madam Wang was so frightened that she almost fell off the couch. She did not even bother to change her clothes and went to the concubine’s room in the backyard to drag Third Master Xie out. Third Master Xie was still fuming with anger when he heard what Madam Wang had said. He was scared silly.
Xie Xian wasn’t a cynical person. Moreover, this joke couldn’t be made. Since he said so, it must be true.
“What is he planning? Are you going to fight Empress Wang to the end? Was he going to drag the entire Xie family down with him?! Can this matter be spread around?”
Madam Wang did not say anything. This was not the time for her to speak. She was a member of the Wang family, but she also knew that if she married into the Xie family, her life and death would be on the same line as the Xie family. Empress Wang would not forgive them just because they were cousins.
Who would still be in the mood to sleep? Third Master Xie wrapped his clothes around himself and went straight to the Second household.
Second Master Xie laughed bitterly when he heard the news from Xie Xian.
Today was the day of life and death.
Every time she tried to coax Third Master Xie, this time, she didn’t get used to his bad habits and directly retorted.
“Whether we sit on the same boat or not, we are also on the same boat in the eyes of the Crown Prince.”He had heard with his own ears that the Crown Prince had vowed to settle accounts with Xie Xian. Once the Crown Prince gained power, he did not believe that the Crown Prince would have the benevolence to remove the rest of the Xie Clan and only target Xie Xian. There would definitely be one after another.
What was the use of shouting now? Xie Xian’s brain alone was worth a hundred of this guy’s!
Since he spread it out like this, then he must have a plan in his heart All he knew was to complain to him, and if he had the ability, he could point at Xie Xian and scold him!
