Chapter 400 - 400: Loyalty
It wasn’t that Xie Xian hadn’t heard of the rumors, but it was as if he hadn’t heard of them.
He wasn’t afraid of others thinking that he didn’t mind being frank, but to others, it was a tacit agreement. He didn’t even dare to deny it.
Xie Xian was quite satisfied with demoting Princess Anji to the county lord of Yiyang. This punishment was not severe, and he even made her cultivate in Liu GUI’s temple. That was a heavy restriction in terms of money and face. Emperor Yu Heng loved Imperial Concubine Liu, and the Imperial Concubine Liu Temple built in the city was extremely luxurious. It was guarded by old eunuchs and old palace maids in the palace, and the rules were extremely strict. It was not like the nunnery outside the city that could allow Yiyang County Lord to do whatever he wanted. This was probably the greatest punishment for her.
Emperor Yong Ping was also afraid that the old eunuch and old palace maid would not be able to keep an eye on him, so he retired from the palace and found the official in charge of the rules and punishment of the Shangyi Bureau and placed him in the temple of Noble Consort Liu to retire.
Before he left, he had specially instructed her, whether it was her, the original eunuchs and palace maids, or even the Yiyang County Lord, especially the Yiyang County Lord, who had gone to cultivate. Since he wanted to cultivate, he had to behave himself and not act like the high-ranking officials and nobles’in the palace.
He was afraid that these palace servants would not know how to stand after kneeling for a long time.
Putting Princess Yi Yang inside, they automatically followed the words of a servant and served her.
Emperor Yong Ping was afraid that he would not be able to get things straight. They thought that they were going to serve Yiyang County Lord and worship him.
Si Zheng was almost fifty years old and had been in the palace for at least thirty to forty years since he was young. How could he not notice this? The Emperor’s words were full of meaning. If she couldn’t hear it, she would have lived for nothing.
This was not asking her to go to the Imperial Concubine Temple to cultivate, but to keep an eye on Yiyang County Lord.
She didn’t dare to guarantee that she would mistreat Yiyang County Lord, but that was what the Emperor meant.
He had personally called her over to give instructions for such a small matter. He was afraid that she would misunderstand and let Yiyang County Head live too freely.
Si Zheng accepted the order.” This old servant has already left the palace. I originally wanted to spend my remaining years in peace. If I could go to the Imperial Concubine’s temple to serve the Imperial Concubine, that would be a blessing that I’ve cultivated for several lifetimes.” Since Your Majesty trusts this old servant, this old servant will naturally be strict with myself and others I will not dare to disturb the quiet atmosphere in the temple. I will definitely manage the affairs in the temple and make peace with the people.” These words were clear. Emperor Yong Ping sent him away happily and naturally did not forget to reward him with silver.
Si Zheng thought,”This is the emperor’s heart.”

Princess Anji’s punishment had come to an end, and Xiao Baoxin’s side was in an uproar.
It was rare for Chu Lingzi and Wang Qiang to rush to the Xie residence.
They were at the back of the house, so they received the news a little later. Only then did they know that Xiao Baoxin had been knocked over by Princess Anji on the road. Fortunately, it had already been two days since they heard about it, so they knew that she was fine.
However, with their friendship, they couldn’t sit still after such a thing happened.
If they weren’t so restless on normal days, if someone offended Xiao Baoxin, then that person would be unlucky. If Xiao Baoxin didn’t offend them, then ’ they would lose. However, the problem was that Xiao Baoxin was pregnant now, so he couldn’t rush or bump into her.
Even though they knew that the messenger said that she was fine and that she would be resting at home, they were still worried.
Fortunately, the Chu and Xie families were on good terms. Chu Lingzi’s biological mother was Madam Yuan’s biological sister. Although Chu Lingzi was detained, she was not unreasonable after such a big incident. In the end, she was released.
Chu Lingzi was originally still on tenterhooks, but when she saw Xiao Baoxin’s flushed face, she felt relieved.
“.. I knew you were lucky. “She laughed wantonly.” Now the entire Jiankang City knows Princess Anji-no, I should call her Yiyang County Lord now. Everyone knows that she has been defeated by you. In the future, no one will dare to shout in front of you.”
Wang Qiang only laughed at the side.
“I don’t know who heard the news, but they didn’t sleep well the whole night. Today, their faces are swollen like meat buns.”
Even now, it could be seen that Chu Lingzi’s face had indeed become rounder than before.
Xie Wan pinched her hand lightly.”! was wondering why you’re fatter than usual. So that’s why. Quick, let me squeeze the water for you.””
The more Chu Lingzi avoided Xie Wan, the more she pounced on. The two of them rolled to one side in a short while.
Xiao Baoxin was so frightened that he hurriedly got off the bed. If Yiyang County Head didn’t bump into her and ruin it because of these two little girls playing crazily, it would be a capsized boat in the gutter.
“Be careful!” Wang Qiang helped Xiao Baoxin sit down at the side,” Quickly stay further away from them. These two people gathered together as if they were injected with chicken blood. They were clearly quiet little ladies when they were apart, but when they gathered together, they became like heavenly lightning seducing earthly fire.”
Xiao Baoxin smiled,”That’s far away, don’t let the lightning strike us.'”‘
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
Wang Qiong looked on and felt emotional. They were all Di daughters of the family and had been raised in the hands of their families. The biggest thing in the world was to go out without clothes, and then run into a girl who didn’t get along with each other.
However, after marrying someone, she would only know that those things were nothing when she reached her in-laws ‘house.
Compared to the complicated relationship between her in-laws, her past life was like a fairy.
“It’s so difficult.”
Xiao Baoxin glanced at her. Wang Qiong had always been very thoughtful. As long as she didn’t want others to know, one couldn’t tell what was on her mind from her face.
“Aunt Fifteen…”
Wang Qiong smiled as she looked at her.
He read more than half of what Xiao Baoxin was about to say and only said calmly after a long while,”I don’t know if you’re doing well in your in-laws ‘house. However, the Xie family is your external family and will always stand on your side. If someone bullies you, the Xie family will definitely not sit idly by.”
“You also knowXuan Hui’s current position in the court and the Xie family’s reputation.”
“Anyone who dares to bully you is bullying the Xie family. You can’t just tolerate it. To put it bluntly, Chu Silang is gone. It’s righteous for you to stay in the Chu family, but if they don’t do it first, we’ll return to the Xie family!” The Xie family raised you!
No one else could say this as righteously as Xiao Baoxin. Everyone knew that she was a man of her word in front of Xie Xian.
Her words could indeed represent Xie Xian.
Xie Xian represented the entire Xie Clan.
When Wang Qiong heard this, she almost couldn’t hold back her tears. In the end, her eyes were still red.
Thank you, I’m doing very well.” After she finished speaking, she smiled. “If there comes a day when I can’t hold it in anymore, you all heard it-” She called out to Xie Wan and Chu Lingzi. The two of them looked at each other and nodded repeatedly, indicating that they heard her.
“I came to rely on you.”
“What are you talking about? This is your home.’Xie Wan did not like to hear this. “We’ve grown up since we were young. We can bully anyone but you. Besides, you’re a widow for Chu Silang.. As long as the Chu family treats you poorly, it’s because they’re heartless!”
